CHELSEA WATERWORKS BILL.

In reply to Mr. WAKLEY,
Lord G. MANNERS said tho subject of rating in
regard to
.the supply of water was under the con-
sideration of the Government, and they would propose
the postponement of this Bill until they had come to a
decision on the subject.
ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE.

It was then agreed that the House at its rising should
adjourn until Monday next.
MILITIA BILL.

The:House then went into Committee upon this Bill,
Mr. Bernal in the Chair.

Clause 9 having been proposed,
Mr. M. GIBSON called the attention of the House
to the clause, which he said was inconsistent with the pre-
ciding clause 8, which had undergone certain changes.
He observed that the clause would hare the effect of
drawing a larger quota from towns than counties.—The
clause as it stood was defended by Mr. Walpole and the
Attorney-General, and opposed by Mr. Bright, Sir
Charles Wood, and Mr. Mowatt.

After a short discussion the clause was agreed to
with some verbal amendments.

The Committee then proceeded to consider the neat
clause.
