House of Lords which was received with favour by the
House of Commons. If that was said with truth of
an unreformed Parliament, he confessed that he did not think
that the change which had taken place since was likely to
have improved the feeling of the House of Commons in that
respect. Their Lordship? strength was in dealing with mea-
sures which came up from the other House; and he thought
their Lordships would best consult their interests by adhering
to the old practice.—(Hear.)
Earl GREY could not agree with the Noble Earl. There
was no doubt that the prospect of passing important mea-
sures was much greater when they were commenced in the
other House of Parliament ; and for that reason he much re-
gretted that a Bill introduced by the Noble Earl opposite,
which passed through their Lordship? House, had met with
so little favour in the other House of Parliament. He
thought, however, they would never see the work of legis-
lation carried on without delay, until some arrangement
could be hit upon by which measures which had been con-
sidered in one session in the other House of Parliament
could be taken up in the next in their Lordship? House.—
( Hear, hear.) He believed there had been a valid technical
objection to the Bill which had been proposed by the Noble
Earl; but he did not say that they should not adopt, by
resolution or Bill, some satisfactory mode of dealing, in sub-
sequent years, with measures which had been in former ses-
sions under the consideration of Parliament.—(Hear, hear,
Their Lordships then adjourned.
