IMPERIAL PARLIAMEN T

HOUSE OF LORDS—Trus EVENING.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack
at five o'clock.

THE EDUCATION CODE.
The Earl of DERBY presented a petition against the
new Education Code.

LAW OF PROPERTY.
Lord St. LEONARDS brought in a bill to further im-
prove the law of property. The principle of the measure
had already received the approval of their lordships' house,
but hitherto it had not found much favour in the other
house of parliament. He considered that if the bill received.
the assent of the legislature it would greatly improve the
administration of justice.
The bill was read a first time, and ordered to be read a
second time on Thursday next.
PROTECTION OF REAL PROPERTY
Lord ST. LEON ARDS also brought in a bill for the
further protection of purchasers of real property. The noble
and learned lord in the speech from the woolsack the other
evening enumerated the risks a purchaser of landed pro-
perty ran as the law at present stood, he having to wait for
a period of forty years before his title could be
considered indefensible. By his measure he proposed to
shorten this period to 20 years, which he considered amply
sufficient, In the event of thebieerlflbreeind to a
greasdeleactseccoomnc!
time he proposed that it should be r
mittee, where the whole subject could be most maturely
considered in all its bearings.
The bill was then read a first time.
Their lordships then adjourned.

The Spr.AxEn took the chair at four o'clock.

(Borough) Fire Brigade, &c.—Ellesmere, Ruabon, and

church Railway Company)—Great Western Railway
(Oswestry, Shrewsbury, and Ellesmere lines)—lsle of Wight
Railway—Oswestry, Ellesmere, and Whitchurch Railway
—and Ross Turnpike Trust.
THE REVISED CODE OF EDUCATION.
Some petitions were presented against the Revised Code
of Education.
THE CHURCH RATES ABOLITION BILL.
Mr. S. ESTCOURT asked the hon. member for Ban-
bury (Sir C.:Douglas), in the absence of Sir J. Trelawny,
whether it was intended to proceed with the second reading
of the Church Rates Abolition Bill on the day for which it
was fixed, as that was Ash Wednesday, when it was under-
stood the house would not sit.
Sir C. DOUGLAS said that certainly the bill would not
be proceeded with.

OFFICERS IN THE BOMBAY AND MADRAS
ARMIES.
Col. SYKES gave notice that on Friday he would ask
the Secretary of State for India for some information in
reference to this subject.

ECCLESIASTICAL MANORS.
Mr. LYGON asked the Secretary of State for the Home
Department when the return relating to Ecclesiastical
Manors, ordered by this house 16th June, 1860, and 26th
June, 1861, would be laid upon the table?
Sir G. GREY said that the returns, with the exception
of that which related to one manor, were ready, and when
complete would be laid on the table.
SIR ROBERT PEEL AND THE O'DONOGRUE.
Lord PALMERSTO N said that he had to call the atten-
tion of the house to a breach of privilege which had been
committed by an honourable member. It was ne-
cessary, in order to enable the members of
that house to exercise their functions, that there should be
the most perfect freedom of speech in debate. In course
of the debate which took place on Friday even-
ing his right hon. friend the Secretary of State for
Ireland (Sir It. Peel) had made some remarks which the
hon. member for Tipperary considered personally offen-
sive to him. The course which should be pursued by an
hon. member when he considered himself insulted by any
remarks made by another hon. member was to call on the
Speaker of the house to interpose at the time. But
the honourable member for Tipperary had taken
a different course, and had sent a challenge to the right
hon. baronet the Secretary for Ireland. As the head of the
Government, he thought it right to communicate with the
right hon. baronet. The noble lord then read a letter
which he had addressed to Sir Robert Peel, which was to
the effect that it had been suggested to him that the
0' Donoghue contemplated sending him a hostile message,
' and that his acceptance of the same would be a breach of
privilege. He also desired him to refer the O'Donoghue to
him. (Great laughter.) He was accordingly waited on by
a friend of the hon. member Ifor Tipperary (renewedrng
laughter), and he told him that be

explained that the hon. member for
Tipperary had been guilty of a breach of privilege, and
called on him to apologise to the house, and promise that
the matter should not proceed further.
Major GAVIN said that he had acted as the friend of
the hon. member for Tipperary. He agreed with that hon.
member that the language which the right hon. baronet
(Sir R. Peel) used to him in the debate of Friday required
to be explained. He did not recollect the exact terms, but
the right hon. baronet spoke of mannikin traitors, and
alluded to cabbage garden heroes, which was in-

T(Lhaeugnohbtleerlord stated to him the course which he intended
to pursue in bringing the subject before the house,
and the matter terminated so far as he was concerned, be-
cause he had discharged his duty in the only way it was
competent in an affair of this description. (Hear, hear.)
The O'DONOUHUE, who was called to order twice
during his speech, then addressed the house, and vindi-
cated his conduct. He contended that, as a gentleman
he was bound to demand the explanation which he re-
quired, and taunted the right hon. baronet (Sir R. Peel)
with having sheltered himself under his official position,
and availed himself of the technicalities of the house in re-
fusing him the satisfaction to which he was entitled. He
made some personal allusions to Sir Robert Peel's speech
at Derry.

The SPEAKER called him to order, and reminded him
that he had not made the apology or the promise that was
required.

The O'DONNOGHUE said that after the course pur-
sued :,by the right hon. baronet, ho thought it quite unne-
cessary to state that he would not carry the matter fur-
ther. (Hear, hear, and laughter.)
