Noble Friend at the bead of the administration and his
.Noble Friend at the head of the Home Department. He
had bad much discussion with them on the subject, and
there was nothing in the Bill, either of principle or detail,
which had not the entire assent of his colleagues. It had
been said that he was like Cardinal Wolsey, but he really
had iao pretensions to play the part of Cardinal Wolsey,
tither in law or in politics, or in reference to his col-
leagues or the Master whom he had the honour to serve.
He had, very naturally, a stronger desire than his col
leagues for the passing of the Bill, because he was more
aware than they were of the great occasion there was for
its passing, and to the passing of that Bill he was pre
pared to sacrifice his own private convenience, however
great that sacrifice might be. To his infinite astonish-
ment
he understood that it had been said that, in opening
this Bill, in his place, he had stated that it was to he
attended with a load of compensation to the Lord Clian•
cellor. The real fact was, that by this Bill about 7,500/.
would be detached from the income of the Lord Chancel-
lor ; and he had said that he would trust to Parliament,
in a future Session, to make up the Lord Chancellor's in-
come to the ainc•unt which was absolutely necessary in
order to enable him adequately to perform the duties of
-the office. But this he had kept entirely separate from
the Bill, in order that it might not be clogged with any
thing of that kind. But he bad no right to abandon the
proper claims of his office ; and disclaimed all praise on
that account, because it was praise which he did not de-
serve. But•then'he had studiously avoided clogging the
Bill will any compensation to the Lord Chancellor, be-
cause- it was his favourite object to get the Bill passed.
For the proper compensation lie had entirely trusted to
Parliament in a future Session. He begged pardon of
their Lordships for saying so much about a mutter which
was not now before their Lordships ; but as these misap-
prehensions hal gone abroad, he thought it best to explain
at once.

Earl GREY presented a petition from Swansea in fa-
vour of the Reform Bill ; also petitions to the same effect
from Easter Ross and Sttomness ; also a petition from the
Convention of the Royal Boroughs in Scotldnd against
their disfranchisement.

St. Vincent's Relief Bill, was read a second and third time
and passed.
