IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS--This Evening.

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at the usual hour.
BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE.
The Earl of DERBY said a question had been put the
other evening by a noble friend as to the bills it was pro-
posed to proceed with at an early period of the session.
Undoubtedly, it would be of the highest importance that
some exact information should be given as to what
those measures were which were dimly shadowed
forth in her Majesty's Speech. He should, therefore,
like to know the title of the bills that were to be
taken into consideration before Easter. There was also
another subject that was exciting great interest : he alluded
to the Brazils. Had the noble earl the Secretary for
Foreign. Affairs been in his place he should have asked
him when it was likely the papers connected with
that subject, would be laid on the table of the house. He
would not, in his absence, press for the opinion of the Go-
vernment as to the conduct of their agent, but he hoped
they would be able to disprove those charges of arbitrary
and unjust conduct, which appeared to be well founded.
Earl GRANVILLE said the papers on Brazil were
being prepared with the utmost despatch. The noble earl
had himself said there were very few measures which could
be proceeded with before Easter, but there was one which
would be introduced, and that was with respect to the pol-
lution of rivers by noxious vapours, and reform of chemical
works.

Lord STANLEY of ALDERLEY explained that the
measure in question would be confined to the refuse dis-
charge from alkali works.
Their lordships then adjourned.
