CALL OF THE HOUSE.

Mr. D. W. HARVEY said that in moving the Order of the
Day for the Call of the House, he wished to ask the Noble Lord,
whether it was his intention to oppose the motion of which he
had given notice ? If such was his intention, then, in Moving
the Order of the Day for the Call of the House, his course
would be to move that the House be called over.

The Order of the Day having been read,
Mr. DANIEL WHITTLE HARVEY, in now moving
that the House be called over, said—l am anxious to say that
on looking at the unprecedented attendance of Members,
I should be willing to dispense with the Call, but at the same
time I think that I cannot do so consistently with the call
of which the Noble Lord, the Member for Buckinghamshire,
has given notice for Thursday next, if the Noble Lord intended
to persevere in that call. The object of the Noble Lord was to
call the attention of the House to the distribution of the
surplus, which is fortunately at the disposal of the Chancellor
of the Exchequer; and as the object of the Noble Lord is
one of economy, and my motion is one in aid of it, it will
be impossible for me to be rightly understood with reference
to my Intended call, if I waive it on the present occasion.
Lord J. RUSSELL had no objection to the call being
made. On the contrary he thought the very full attendance
was a reason why the call should be persevered in, and not aban-
doned.—( Hear, hear.) At the same time, as there did not
appear any reason to expect that there would be any
diminution whatever of attendance on Thursday ncxt, on the
motion of the Noble Lord to consider the relief to the
agricultural interest, he ( Lord John Russell) hoped
that the Noble Lord Would not think it necessary to give the
trouble of having the House called over again.—( Hear. )
The Marquis of CHANDOS made no reply, and the
Speaker then proceeded to call over the House—
And the names of the defaulters being called over, several
of them appeared ; and those who did not attend were ordered
to attend as follow :—That Lord Viscount Acheson, Lord

On our return to the gallery we found
Mr SCARLETT putting a question to the Secretary for
Foreign Affairs relative to the transfer of a correspondence as
to certain transactions in the Barbary States from the Con-
sular department of the Foreign Office.
Lord PALMERSTON (as we understood) .assured the
Hon. Member that the transfer had taken place.
Mr. SCARLETT then moved for the production of the
papers and corrrespondence between the naval Commander-
in-Chief in the Mediterranean in 1832, and the Pacha of
Tripoli: but, at the request of the Noble Lord, withdrew his
motion.
