then and Cardigan Railway (No. 1), Newry and Gleelloro

FISHERIES (IRELAND) BILL.

The house then went into committee on the bill.
The consideration of clause 4 was resumed.

Mr. BRUCE explained that the Government had lis-
tened with great attention to suggestions from all parties
interested in these fisheries, and he believed that whilst the
best parts of the Act of 1842 were conserved by this bill,
it would likewise lead to the proper distribution of salmon,
which all unbiassed and disinterested persons desired. The
Government considered that the clause as amended would
work well.

Sir N. SOMERVILLE said he was a supporter, though
reluctantly, of the compromise which had resulted in this
bill, and it was rather too bad for its supporters to feel it
their duty to oppose such alterations in the claase on the
part of the Government, which would legalise stake and
bag nets, and thus destroy all salmon that ascended the
rivers. Had the bill of the hon. member for Wexford (Mr.
M'Mahon) not been interfered with by the Government,
he believed it would have received the assent of the house.

Mr. BRUCE denied that the clause as amended would
legalise these nets.
After much discussion, the committee divided on the
clause as proposed to be amended, the Government having

proposed the omission of the words "or any other waters,"
when there appeared—
For the amendment 33
Against
Majority —2
Several verbal amendments were then agreed to.
Mr. REDMOND proposed the insertion of the words
"or estuaries" after the word "rivers."
The alteration was opposed.
Atter some discussion, the house divided, when there
appeared—

For the amendment
Ayes
Maj0rity............
Mr. BUTT proposed the addition of words to the effect
that in cases where persons owned the whole of the rivers
and the right of fi•ihing therein, they should have power to
maintain or erect bag nets.

Mr. O'HAGAN did not approve of the amendment in its
present form; but the Government would consider the sub-
ject.

After some discussion the amendment was withdrawn,
the Government having undertaken to frame a clause on
the subject.

The discussion of the subject occupied the remainder of
the sitting.

The house resumed at six o'clock, and was
(LEFT SITTING.)
