IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

fiqUSE OF LORDS, MARCH 22.
The' LORD 'CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack at
the usual hour, when a number of private Bills were brought
up from the House of Commons, and severally read a first time
Lord SKELSMERSDALE presented a petition from a
place in Yorkshire, complaining of agricultural distress; and
one complaining of the additional duty on spirit licenses.
The Earl of RO SE BE R Y wished to call the attention of
the House to the state in which the question of the Scotch
Laws of Entail was left last Session. He had not pro-
ceeded in the matter, because he had hoped some Bills
on the subject would have been introduced which
would have been more in harmony with the feelings of
those who would have to decide upon the law. He was sorry
that he had been disappointed in such a hope, for he was now
obliged to abandon all intention of originating any mea-
sure in the present Session.—( Hear.) Whether he would be
induced to bring in a Bill to extend the powers and relieve the
restrictions which now pressed upon the heirs of entail in
possession in Scotland, depended upon the wishes of those
who were interested in the question, and whether he thought
he could surmount the difficulties which surrounded it.

Lord PLUNKETT brought in a Bill for amending the
Laws of Bankruptcy in Ireland. He would only say that the
objects of the Bill were to consolidate the Laws in
Ireland which extended over a great number of
Acts—to assimilate the practice of the two countries—
to extend to Ireland the improvoments which had been intro-
duced in this country by the 3d of George IV., and the Ist
and 2d of William IV. There were at present 25 Commis-
sioners in Ireland. The Bill proposed to abolish the whole of
them, and entrust the working of the Bankruptcy Laws to one
Commissioner. He would on the second reading of the Bill,
state the details of the Bill at length.
The Bishop of BATH and `YELLS presented a petition
from the owners and occupiers of ecclesiastical property in
Somersetshire, praying that the Bill for amending the law
with regard to the renewal of leases of such property, might
not pass into a law.
The Bishop of ROCHESTER could not help expressing
his surprise that such a petition should have been pre-
sented, in the absence of the most Reverend Prelate who
had charge of the Bill.—( Hear.) It was was well known
that the Bill emanated from the Church Conimissioners, and
he denied that it would do .mare; than modify some great
abuses which had arisen from the present state of the law.
—(Hear, hear.) He did not think that the petition was
either modest or reasonable, for the Bill would not interfere in
any way with the fair rights of any one connected with such
property.
The Bishop of BATH and WELLS said if he had not
presented the petition now he would not have been able to do
it, for he was obliged to leave town on very important busi-
ness He thought the prayer of the petition was both fair and
reasonable ; for if the; Bill; passed, the occupier of any Ec-
clesiastical leasehold property could not get his son's life in-
serted, which would be a great detriment to the public.
The Bishop of ROCHESTER defended the Bill. Was
it fair that the incumbent of any living should, just when
when leaving it, grant a renewal of a lease for young lives in
place of old ones, by which the property was rendered value-
less to three or four of his successors ?
On the motion of Lord GLENELG the Report on the
Administration of Justice in the West Indies Bill was brought
up, and agreed to.—To be read a third time on Thursday.
The Marquis of L ANSDOWNE presented a petition
from the prisoners confined for debt in Whitecross- street
prison, praying for the abolition of imprisonment for debt.
As some measure on the subject was to be introduced this
Session, and as the petition was short, he moved that it be
read by the clerk.
On the motion of the Earl of SII A FTE SB U RY the House
then adjourned to Thursday next.

the Cheltenham and Great Western Railway Bill.
Mr. WAK LEY presented a petition from an individual
named Henry Cook, complaining of the conduct of the offi-
cers of the South Western Railway, and praying to be heard
before the Committee by counsel.

Mr. HUME thought-the House would not do its duty if it
referred this petition to the Committee. Their powers were
already large enough. If the Committee did their duty, they
would ascertain whether the shares were bona fide subscribed
for. Whatever stock-jobbing had taken place between indi-
viduals, he thought that the House of Commons would not
entertain it.

Mr. GISBORNE said that the petitioner did not pretend
to be affected by the line of Railway against which he was pe-
titioning, and that was one of the principal grounds why the
House ought not to interfere.
