DIVISIONS ON THE REFORM BILL.

After Lord Maitland's motion to call evidence and to
hear counsel in the case of the borough of Appleby was
rejected by 281, to 187, there were seven separate divisions
for adjourning the debate ; but, before :the first division
took place, on Captain James Gordon's motion for ad-
journing the debate, Sir Robert Peel, Mr. Goulburn, Mr.
Herries, Sir George Murray, arid many others of the lead-
ing Members of the Opposition to the number of 85, left.
the House, and did not afterwards return ; or, as Lord
Mahon, Lord Porchester, Sir John Walsh, and others,
voted with his Majesty's Ministers in the majority, which
was thus swe'led to 328—whilst the minority was reduced
in 102.
It has been impossible to obtain correct lists either of
the majorities or minorities on the,e. divisions ; but we give
what is considered the tnrost correct lists that have been
made, and we shall be ready to make any corrections
which may be sent to us, 'properly authenticated.
We annex the list of the minority of 102 who voted for
Captain Gordon's amendment :

majority who voted with Ministers against Captain Gor-
don's first motion for adjourning the debate; and it will be
seen by the numbers which voted on each succeeding mo •
tion, how strong the supporters of the Bill continued to the
last, whilst the Opposition dwindled away very rapidly to
the small number of 24, out of 638 Nlensbers.
We give the names of the majority who voted against
the first motion for adjournment, but we are not able to
give the 189 who remained to the last, and by their firm-
ness in support of linisters, may be considered to have con-
firmed the public confidence in their favour.

that minority who, with such pertinacity, opposed the pro-
gress of a Bill which the King, his Ministers, and the great
mass of the people not only support, I ut demand, as abso-
