VACCINATION ACT AMENDMENT BILL.
On the order of the day for going into committee on
this bill,
Mr. BRADY proposed that legislation should be post-
poned until next session,, when the defects of the present
vaccination system could be effectually remedied. As
long as the stamp of pauperism was kept upon the ex-
isting act it would remain imperative, but, nevertheless,
if the house would refrain from legislation on the subject
until February next, he would pledge himself to bring
in a bill which at all events should have the merit of
being practical, which this measure was not. He moved
that the bill be committed this day three months.
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE seconded the amendment.
Sir J. PAKINGTON contended that the measure
was, essential for the public health, and he could not
consent to any postponement.
The amendment was then negatived without a division,
and the House went into Committee.
After some discussion all the clauses of the Bill were
struck out with the exception of the second, which
corrects the mistake in the Bill of last session.
The House then resumed.
EPISCOPAL AND CAPITULAR ESTATES
MANAGEMENT BILL. •
On the order of the day for going into committee on
this bill,
Mr. CAYLEY moved as an instruction to the com-
mittee, that it is expedient in this bill, renewing the act
14 and 15 Victoria, C. 04
the intention of the following words in the first
clause of that act, Viz.,
"It shall be lawful for
1
any Ecclesiastical Corporation, sole or aggregrate,
with the approval in writing of the Church Estate
just
and who shall pay due regard to the
and reasonable claims of the present holders of lands,
under lease or otherwise, arising from the long continued
practice of renewal, to sell to any lessee, under any lease
granted by such corporation, the revision, estate, and
interest of such corporation in all or any of the lands
coma rised in such lease, for such consideration, upon
such terms, and in suemanner as such corporation and ,
lessee may, with such approval. as aforesaid, think fit.'
The SPEAKER said there as no necessity for any
such instruction, t:
as the committee would have full
power to make the requisite alterations if they should
think fit.

Lord J. RUSSELL remarked that under these cir-
cumstances it Would be better to go into committee at
once.

After some observations from Mr. G. H. Liddell, Mr.
Aglionby, and Mr. Goulburn, the house went into com-
mittee.

All the original clauses of the bill having been agreed
,o,

Mr. INGRAM moved the insertion of the following
clause :—"That in every oase where a treaty shall have
been entered into under the pi ()visions of this act, for
the sale, purchase, or exchange of any episcopal or
capitular estate in England, or of any interest in such
estate, it shall be lawful by the consent of both
parties to such treaty, to refer to arbitration
the finding of the anual value of such estate,
and of the value of the fee simple thereof, subject
to the exceptions and reservations, if any, to be excepted
and reserved thereout, and that such finding shall be
adopted in computing the terms of such sale, purchase,
or exchange, regard being had, in the final settlement of
such terms in every such case, to the just and
reasonable claims of the present olders of land under
lease or otherwise, arising from the long con-
tinued practice of renewal ; and that in every
such case one arbitrator shall be appointed by each of
the parties to such treaty, and the two arbitrators so
appointed shall, before they proceed in the matter re-
ferred to them, appoint an umpire or third arbitrator,
and the proceedings upon such arbitration shall be con-
ducted in like manner, and sub ject to the same rules
and enactments as upon a reference made by consent
upon a rule of court or judge's order. Provided
always that it shall be lawful for the parties to
such treaty to appoint one and the same person to act
as sole arbitrator ; and in such case the valuations acts
and award of the arbitrators and umpire, under the pro-
visions herein contained ; and in every case the costs of
such arbitration and award shall be in the discretion of
the said arbitrators/or umpire, as the case may be."
This clause led to some discussion, but ultimately
Lord J. RUSSELL said, he had no objection to the

clause if using were added to it, providing that the con-
sent of the Church Establishment Gnmnissioners, as
well as the parties, should be obtained before the arbi-
tration took place.

Mr. INGHAM agreed to this amendment of the
clause.

The clause was then agreed to, and the Chairman was
directed to report progress.

THE FACTORY ACT.
Mr. COBBETT said he was labouring under a phy-
sical disability which would prevent his bringing on his
motion to-night for leave to bring in a bill to amend the
Ten Hours' Factory Act—(the hon. gentleman was
quite hoarse)—but he should take the very earliest op-
portunity next session to bring the subject forward.
The other twelve o'clock orders were then disposed
of, and the sittings of the house were suspended at four
o'clock.
The house resumed at six o'clock, and was
