IRISH COPRORATION BILL.

•••••
Lord FITZGERALD and VESCI rose and said that he
would not detain the House more than a few minutes, especi-
ally after the most able speech of his Noble and Learned
Lord, which was still unanswered, and which must be
still fresh in the memory of their Lordships.—(Hear.)
H.! would not go into any topics of recrimination, either as re-
garded individuals or public bodies.—( Hear, hear.) The
Noble Lord went on to state, that having observed the
m inner in which the Corporation Commissioners executed the
duty intrusted to them, he was bound to say that they acted
uulaghtly in their proceedings. Before entering on the details,
of the Bill itself, he felt bound to call their Lordships
attention to the purposes for which Corporations were es-
tablished in Ireland, with a view to skew that there was an
essential difference between those who created them in Great
Britain and that country.
