ASTICAL ACT.

Mr. SPOONER asked Lord John Russell whether
Mr. Sadleir had any authority for saying, on the hust-
ings at Carlow, that " the noble lord had profferred a
political refutation of the course which he had taken
with respect to the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill, which that
distinguished nobleman had had the manliness to proffer ;"
and for saying, "that the principle of the Ecclesiastical
Titles Bill had been deliberately and openly abandoned ;"
and to ask the noble lord, whether the noble lord still
thinks that the aggression of the pope, which induced
his lordship to bring forward the Ecclesiastical Titles
Bill, was " insolent and insidious," and fully justified the
introduction of that measure.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL said, that when he had seen
the report in question in the newspapers, he had not
thought it necesssary to ask Mr. Sadlier for an explanation
thinking it so obviously incorrect, that the speech could
not have been made by him. Mr. Sadleir, however, had
since voluntarily informed him, that this report was as
he (Lord John Russell) had thought, entirely incorrect.
(Hear.) With regard to the last part of the question,
although he thought the hon. member was going too far
in seeking to know his (Lord J. Russell's) thoughts, he
had only to say, as the hon. member was curious on that
point, that he still thought the same as he had done two
years' ago. (Hear.)
THE MADIAI.
Mr. KINNAIRD asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs, as to whether he had any objection to
lay on the table of this house any papers or extracts of
correspondence relating to the case of the Madiai.
Lord J. RUSSELL said he had no objection.
CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

In reply to Mr. ADDERLY,
Mr. PEEL said that he believed the obstacles which
had lain in the way of the completion of the constitution
of the Cape and which related chiefly to the franchise
and the separation of the two coldni:s had been removed,
and he hoped that it would be sent out by the next
month's mail. (Hear, hear.) The Government had no
intention of forming any convict settlement in South
Africa ; and with regard to the late march of
General Cathcart into the Orange River territory,
that was a step which he had taken on his own responsi-
bility, and had no reference to the extension of the
Queen's dominions in that quarter.
BRITISH EMBASSY AT CONSTANTINOPLE.
In answer to Lord DUDLEY STUART,
Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that he had to-day had
a conversation with Lord Strafford, and he was enabled
to state that that noble lord would ahnost immediately-
return to resume the duties of his mission at Constanti-
nople. (Cheers.)
The motion for adjournment was then agreed to.
TRANSFER AIDS BILL.

This bill was read a second time, and ordered to be
committed.
Leave was given to the Chancellor of the Exchequer
to bring in a bill to authorise advances from the Con-
solidated Fund to discharge money borrowed for metro-
politan improvements on the security of the crown
estates, and to charge the same on the London Bridge
Approaches Fund.
The other orders were then disposed of, and the house
adjourned.
