JEWISH EMANCIPATION.
The Right Hon. It. GRANT presented a petition from
tlitJews of London, praying that they might be allowed
their civil rights. The Right Hon. Gentleman said he
considered himself called upon to state what course he in-
tended to pursue. In the first place, he would give notice
of his intention to move, on the 17th of February, for leave
to bring in a Bill fur the Emancipation of the Jews. When
he gave this notice, he did it with a reservation as to the
fate of a Bill then in progress through the House, for the
repeal of the abjuration oath, That Bill would, if carried,
affect the Jewish religion, so far as perhaps to render his
notice of motion unnecessary, as it was probable it would
41 .re 4
.. , • he difficulties ' against the admission of the
J.. to 4ar i,ithent.' As he before said, however, he
Mite veil to himself the right of bringing forward the great
question before the House of which lie had given notice,
and if the petitioners were entitled to what they asked, per-
haps it would be better to • open fairly the doors of the
Constitution than that they Should be admitted by a side-

bit R. INGLIS said he should oppose this Bill on the
same ground us he had done before.
Mr. R. GRANT said, when the question came before
the Home he had no doubt of giving such an ehicidation
of it as to remove all doubts as to the danger of the mea-
sure. He hoped also he should be able to do away the
honest zeal of the Hon. Baronet.

DR. PHILLPOTTS.

PHILLPOTTS raid, as his Majesty's GoVernment
had stated the other night, it was not their intentimi to
allew the Bishop of Exeter to hold the Living of Stanhope,
together with his Diocese, he wished to ask the Noble
Lord opposite *hat were the intentions of Government
respecting his Right Rev. Relative.

Lord iLTHORP *aid, that when his Majesty's Minis..
term advised the Crown not to allow the Right Rev. Pre-
late to hold the living of Stanhope together with the Bi-
shopric of Exeter, be could assure the Hon. Gentleman
that they were not actuated by any feelings of personal
hostility, but influenced purely:by a sense of puhlic duty.
He felt with his colleagues,' that the' determination
which they had come to was a hardship on the Right
Rev. Prelate, as when he accepted the Bkhopric, he was
led to expect that he should be • allowed to retain the
living of Stanhope also. He watt authorised to say that
the first plkee.of preferment at the disposal of Government
not connected with the cure of souls should be offered to
the Bishop. By such a regulation the Choral would not
be endangered. It wag abuses like the one they had nor;
put a atop to, that had endanged the permanenc7 ()Mat
F.stablishment.—(Hear, hear.)
