Lord LYNDHURST—The House may now go into
Committee ; ani., upon the third reading, the Noble Mar-
quis may again discus tile principle of the Bill.
The Marquis of C,I4ANRICA.RDE—That is pre-
cisely my view, and I have so e.maressed myself.
The House then went into Committee, the Earl of
SHAFTESBURY in the Chair, when a conversation oc-
curred across the table, the import of which did not reach
t',:f.k gallery.
Seve•al clauses were agreed to, with sone verbal amend-
ments.
On the clause being proposed relating to L•ases granted
by Corporations,
Lord DENMAN ob;"teted to it, and proposed that cer-
tain words should be struck .9ut, the effect. of which would
be to perpetuate leases graniA by Corporations, unless
collision could be proved.
Lord LYNDHURST did not see .fuly 'good reason. for
striking out the words in question.
Lord? LANSDOWNE—The Bill of the Noble Lord
extinguishes Corporations'. altogether and for ever on the
grounda of misconduct. It was not, therefore, out of rea-
son to admit that these Corporations had misconducted
themselves.
Lord LYNDHURST had neither assumed nor stated
that they bad ever misconducted themselves.---(cheers.)
He found this Bill, which Came from ti.‘e other House
of Parliament, ang was patronised by the Noble Marquis,
extinguished these Corporations, not on the gro 4ntilhat they
had abused their trust, ss far as property Iva: • concerned,
but that they were exclusive bodicc, mid lerefore
not think that they ought to be entrusted with the admi-
nistration of justice. He thought he was bound to adhere
to the clause as it stood.
The clause was then agreed to as we underst sod.

WolvtAN.—" Who is she ?" a Rajah Was ;41 the
habit of askinz, whenever a calamity was related to him, 10w-
ever severe or however trivial. His attendants reported to.
hint coo morning. that a labourer had fallen r.-om a:scaffold.
when working at his palace, and had broken his neck. " Whti
is she?" demanded the Rajah. " A man—no woman, great
Prince," was the reply. " Who is she?" repeated the Rajah,
with increased anger. In vain did the attendants assert the
manhood of the labourer. "13 ing me instant intelligence.
what woman caused this accident, or woe upon your heads !'
exclaimed the Prince. In an hoar the active attentlJnts re-
turned, and prostrating themsclvc3, cried, out " 0 wise .q'tid
powerful Prince ! as the ill-fated labourer was working err
the scaffold, he was attracted by the beauty of one of your
Highness's damsels, and, gazing on her, lost his balance, and
fe:l to the ground." " You hear now," said the Prince, "no
accident can happen without a woman being in rune way an
instrument."
