to the subject at the close of the last session, but, in conse-
quence of their Laving so recently come into office, they
were not able to give the subject that attention which it
would require. The Geverument had since taken the
subject into their core-ideratien, and the result of their
deliberations had been to ri commend to the House to
abolish the charges at once and f>r ever. Besides, the
unequal mode in which the charges were made, it was
also more than usually necessary to abolish those
charges when it was considered the high prices of
provisions at the present time ; and although those
pensions appeared to he of a small amount to Hon.
llemb( ri, still it was something considerable to the
pensioners themselves.—(Hear, hear.)
Captain LAYARD would belie his feelings if he did
not give expression to his satisfaction now that the Go-
vernment had taken the subject into their consideration
and resolved that the gallant and, in most cases, worn-
out warriors of this country should reeeive the full re-
ward of their toil, and be was glad that the promise
made to him by the Government at the latter end of the
last session had been fulfilled.
Sir DE LACY EVANS—It had been said that this
proposal was just and fair. He did not know whether
it was just and fair, but he was quite sure that the pro-
ceedings of the former Governments was a shameful
violation of the rights of these poor old veterans. At the
same time he was highly delighted that the Government
had now taken this matter into consideration.
Sir H. DOUGLAS also expressed his high satisfac-
tion at this movement on the part of the Government.
TEN HOURS' BILL. . . _

Mr. FIELDEN presented several petitions in favour
of this Bill, which were ordered to lie on the table.
The lost. MEMBER then rose to move for leave to bring
in his Bill for reducing the labour in factories to ten
hours a day. The Hon. Member went on to quote a
number of authorities, medical and otherwise, in proof
of the injurious effects of the present factory system,
and the necessity of a change. We could only gather
the purport of the speech from an occasional word or
two, but the details of the Hon. Gentleman's address
were perfectly inaudible in the gallery.
Sir GEORGE GREY said the Bill, which was at
present sought to be introduced, and of which the Hon.
Member had obligingly furnished him with a draft,
was nearly the same as that which was intro-
duced last session by Lord Ashley, still there
were some additional causes which would deserve
the consideration of the House. The first of these re-
ferred to the case of young persons, from the ages of
thirteen to twenty, and it was proposed to reduce their
hours of labour from 12 to 11. The second clause pro-
posed to enact a maximum of 10 hours in certain cases,
and the third was for the purpose of placing some
wholesome restrictioa on the labour of young persons.
It was his intention to assent to the introduction of the
Bill without discussion, which might be taken on the
principle of the Bill in an after stage. He thought it
right to guard himself against the supposition that he
coincided in the inferences which the Honourable
Member for Oldham drew from a document which had
been published in September last, and which was well
worthy the attention of the House. The Honourable
Member seemed to infer from that document that a
great increase of mortality had occurred in the factory
districts. He did not think that the returns of
mortality from those districts showed a greater
amount of deaths than what occurred in Liver-
pool and other large cities where few or no manu-
factories were carried on. He should not, however,
detain the House, as an after opportunity would be
given for discussing the question.
Mr. TRELAWNEY, while he admitted the
evil which existed, still he did not think it
right not to protest against a measure which
would militate so much against the interests
of commerce without being advantageous to any
class. If they legislate for those employed in factories,
they should also take into consideration the hundred
thousand female servants of London, who were most se-
verely used by their masters and mistresses. Thellon. Mem-
ber beside him said they had not petitioned,but he (Mr.
Trelawny) considered that it was the duty of that House to
remedy agrievance whether it was petitioned against or not,
He thought that the adoption of the present measnre
would lead to a reduction of the rate of wages; persons
employed in factories would be thrown out ofemploymen t
and thereby increase the amount of competition in the
other branches of labour. In his opinion the principles of
non-interference were those which should be adopted by
the State, and the adoption of any other principle would
lead only to great harm and inextricable confusion
They were now undoing their work. They were again
raising the barriers which had been broken down. He
had warned the House of this last session, but his words
had been wasted. He should, however, oppose this motion,
and trusted the House would reject the measure. At
least to a certainty he should divide the House upon it.
Mr. FERRAND said, that year after year the work-
ing people had come to that House to beg for protection
for their wives and children. It was said that
this should be done to prevent the strike, but
he would tell the House that the working men of
this country came to the House, and on their bended
knees begged for this protection of their wives and
daughters. And if the Hon. Member had an objection
to a strike, working men desired to obtain this pro-
tection without a strike. He was glad to see that this
measure was at last likely to receive something like
support from the Government. At least, so he learned
from the speech of the Hon. Member for Sheffield (Mr.
Ward) delivered at that place the other day ; and
he would tell the Noble Lord at the head
of the Government, that if they did give this measure
any support, he could rally round him such a support as
no Minister had before received from the masses of the
people, while, if it were refused, there would be such a
spirit raised in the north of England, as it would take
much trouble to allay. He trusted the House would do
justice to the people of England, and pass the motion
of the lion Member for Oldham without a division.
Sir G. STRICKLAND could not sufficiently express
the satisfaction which he felt at hearing that this mea-
sure was likely to receive any support from Government.
At the same time he believed that the Ten Hours Bill
for youngc, persons was the right measure that should be
adopted by the Legislature. He could not possibly
conceive why any young person should work in a close
atmosphere, against the continuous power of steam, for
two hours a day more than the labourer of agriculture—a
Labour, the most healthy in which human labour could
be employed. The only:arguments he had heard that
evening against the interference of the Legislature on
this most important subject, were the arguments of
those persons who called themselves political eoonomists.
He for one did not cry out against political economy.
by which a sound reason could be given for what was
done by the Legislature or the Government. Ha spoke
of that political economy which would never listen to
reason on this subject., which carried its doctrine
to such an extreme, that it could not be applied to the
simplest thing. To illustrate this, he would refer to the
argument made use of by the Hon. Member for Corn-
wall that the:House ought not to interfere with the labour
of young persons workinir in factories, because it did not
interfere with the male servants in the city of Loudon.
He could not conceive the cases so utterly dissimilar, and
how the same measures or means could be applied to

the two cases lid could not comprehend. They had
applied for the interference of the Legislature in the
cases of young persons who could 110 protect themselves.
In the case of the male servants, they had certain bar-
gains with their masters ; but in the case of it's ';Storylabourers, no such bargain could be made, in conse-
quence of the rule of political economy. The customs
established by the capital employed overwhelmed them.
He would must certainly cordially support the motion of
the lion. Member.
Sir R. PEEL (who was indistinctly heard) said that
he had beard what had been said on the subject by the
Hon. Member for Tavistock. With regard to the
opinion he (Sir R. Peel) had heretofore expressed, he
retained it still ; and the House would not think him in-
different to the interests of those employed in factory li-
t bour if he opposed the measure, for he did so because
he firmly believed that the passing of the Bill would not
tend to ti;Cir benefit.—(Cheers.) When he was at the
head of her ir.jesty's Government last year, they had
p• 3tponed entering apon the diseuc;i;On for the same
re sens that he now stated.
If the House should come
to a decision adverse to the wishes Of those fisoc4rable
to this measure, it was desirable that it s;;:.'uld be done
with as kindly a disposition and manner as pos;jble.—
(Hear, hear.)
Mr. HUME was anxious that the subject should re-
ceive the fullest and fairest investigation. lie enter-
tained the strongest conviction from the evidence that
had been given before a Committee of that House on the
subject. The House had acted upon the principle that
labour should be allowed to regulate itself, and had in
consequence swept away several statutes on the ques-
tion. This had not been done, however, until after
several discussions, and he trusted that the Right lion.
Bart. would not oppose the present discussion. He
(Mr. Hume) was of opinion that the plan now proposed
would not effect any good, but still he would wish that
the subject should receive, as he had already said, the
fullest, the fairest, and the most dispassionate discussion.
Mr. B. ESCOTT said he did not wish to say any
thing upon the merits of the question, but he thought it
would be strictly improper to oppose the Bill at present.
Mr. MUNTZ said factory labour was an exception to
the general rule, and required legislation upon it. Any
one who had been in a cotton factory would be able to
judge if it were not so. Ile had himself gone to Man-
chester a few weeks ago to make inquiries into the con,
condition of the factory operatives there, and he found
that all the improvements making were in favour of the
masters, and against the men. Considering the heated
atmosphere of the mills, the long hours of labour, and
the age of many of those therein engaged, he considered
the present Bill to be necessary.
Mr. B. ESCOTT rose, amidst loud cries of " Order,"
to repeat the question he had asked before. He would
ask the Noble Lord at the head of the Government what
were the future intentions of her Majesty's Ministers in
regard to this Bill ?
Lord J. RUSSELL replied that it had been agreed
that leave to bring in the Bill should be given, and that
it should be read a first time. When the Bill came to
its next stage, he would be prepared to state what he
intended to do in regard to the measure.—(Hear.)
Leave was then given to bring in the Bill.
SUGAR AND MOLASSES.
Mr. HUME said, in consequence of the Chancellor of
the Exchqpilt 'ming intimated his intention to lay

Sir li. PEEL said, as he was one of the trustees of
the National Gallery, he had no objection to second the
motion. The House of Commons had behaved very
liberally to the National Gallery, and therefore he
thought the Hon. Gentleman had acted very properly
in not making any comments upon what had taken place.
The trustees had called on the gentleman to whom
reference had been made, to furnish a full report of
what had been done. He trusted the House in considera-
tion of the high character of the president of the gallery,
Sir C. Eastlake, would suspend its judgment until they
were in possession of the documents referod to. They
would be furnished in a few days.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the
Government were anxious to afford the fullest informa-
tion.

COURT OF ALDERMEN.

Yesterday a Court was held specially, to consider a
motion by Alderman ITurnphery—" That the Remena-
brancer be directed to prepare a petition to Parliament
for a Bill to alter and amend the Act of the 11 th of
George I. cap. 18, for regulating elections within the
City of London, with a view, amongst other things, to
extend the elective franchise in the election of aldermen
and common councilmen. The Court was numerously
attended.
THE NEW ELECTION Or FARRINGDON WITHOUT WARD.
Sir JAMES DUKE in presenting the return of the new
election for the ward of Farringdon Without, the for-
mer election having been vitiated by the wrong casting
of the poll, and other matters connected with the neces-
sary forms, said he was desired by the wardmote to ex-
press their dissent from the decision of the Court of
Aldermen, and their feeling that the common councilmen
had been treated with indecorum by that Court, and by
the Recorder.
Alderman FAREBROTHER asked whether that state-
ment constituted part of the return?
Sir JAMES DUKE replied, that he spoke as a member
of that Court. His constituents complained that they
had not been heard.
Alderman 'lncites HUGHES said that the consti-
tuency had no ground for complaint, as the Court of
Aldermen could not by any possibility arrive at any
other decision.
The LORD MAYOR denied that the gentlemen of the
ward had been treated with any disrespect, either by the
Recorder or the members of that Court.
[lt is proper to state that the Recorder did all he
could at the last Court to induce the members to allow
the counsel for all parties to speak to the subject before
the Court, but without success.]
Sir PETER LAURIE hoped the complaint would be a
lesson to the Court to give the parties interested an op-
portunity of being heard, by adjourning the decision
upon such a return.
Alderman HUGHES HUGHES observed that the court
were bound to correct any manifest error as soon as they
discovered it.
Alderman SIDNEY called upon Sir James Duke to ex-
plain a statement which he had made at the wardmote to
the prejudice of the Court of Aldermen, that some of the
members had been canvassed by others to throw out the
return, and that they were glad to gratify a secret ani-
mosity to Sir James Duke's ward. Sir James had stated
that his informant was a member of the court.
Alderman COPELAND hoped Sir Jjsmes Duke would
have the manliness to name the Alderman who had made
such a statement.
Sir JAMES DUKE explained, that his statements to his
constituents had been misunderstood. He had said that
the moment one of the Aldermen looked at the return, he
declared it must be thrown out.
Alderman HUGHES HUGHES remarked that the defect
was not known till the return was presented to the
Court.
Alderman WOOD defended the decision of the Court,
and said the conduct of the representatives of the ward,
furnished some evidence of the position in which the
Aldermen would be placed, if they were subjected to
frequent election. He had heard bitter invectives uttered
against Members of the Court, and even villanous
motives attributed to them, on account of their opinions
and decision on the matter, the fact being, that the
Court could legally come to no other conclusion than
that at which they had arrived.—(Hear, hear.)
The subject was then dropped.
ENLARGEMENT OF THE ELECTIVE FRANCHISE.
Alderman HUMPHERY rose to submit to the Court the
motion of which he had given notice, and for the dis-
cussion of which the Court had been specially summoned.
His object was, he said, to go to Parliament for the
power of extending the franchise of the election of Alder-
men and Common Councilmen. There seemed to
exist amongst some of his fellow-citizens, a
decided impression that if the Corporation, or
any part of it, went to Parliament, a death-blow
would be dealt upon its privileges. He did not believe
any such thing. On the contrary, he thought that if the
the corporation applied with an unanimous feeling to
Parliament, the most attentive and respectful conside-
ration would be given to the object of its application.—
(Hear, hear.) His object was, to alter and amend so
much of the Act of George the First as would enable
those who paid the largest amount of rates and taxes,
and contributed most largely to the support of the
wealthy character of the city, to have a voice in the elec-
tion of aldermen and common councilmen. As the law
at present &toed, the voters must not only keep houses
or warehouses, and pay scot and bear lot, but they must
sleep, either by themselves or their servants, within the
wards. He recollected that when he presided at the
election for aldermen in the ward of Bread-street, he
had had experience of that doctrine having been observed,
the rejection of the votes of many of the most respect-
able and influential men on that occasion, because they
could not prove the fact of their sleeping in the
ward. Such a system inevitably threw upon men
who ought not to have such an authority the power of
electing whom they might prefer, thus leaving the su-
perior classes in the ward unrepresented. Now, his
intention was to throw open the franchise to all persons
paying scot and bearing lot in the city of London,
whether they were freemen or not.—(Hear, hear.)
There were iu all the wards individuals who were not
free, and who would not be free, but they bore the great
burden of the City taxation, and no one in his senses
could at this time of day say that they were not entitled
to votes in the election of those who were to impose
taxes upon them. Generally speaking tho merchants
were free, but they were exempted from the privilege of
voting because they thought it was advisable to sleep in
the suburbs after the toils of the day.—(liear, hear.)_ He
wished to establish the constituency of the Aldermen
and the Common Councilmen upon the basis of the ex-
isting parliamentary constituency. He proposed, too, to
limit theduration of election for members of the two courts
upon the parliamentary principle of the Reform Bill.
The present Lord Mayor had witnessed in the case of his
election, the inconvenience and annoyance of an eight
days' poll, when the business could have been accom-
plished as effectively in one day. The election of Com-
mon Councilmen, which occupied, in the event of a con-
test, three days, it would be also necessary to limit to
one day's polling.—(Hear, hear.) Now, into whose
hands would the power of electing Aldermen, as well as
Common Councilmen, fall, if the present practice were
now discontinued r In the ward of Farringdon Without,
there were 180 licensed victuallers, all of whom had
votes, and they could by their votes and influence, which
was considerable, and claim whatever candidates they
pitched upon to the Court of Common Council. These
licensed victuallers, it' the Act were not altered and
amended, would by and by return members to the Court
of Aldermen, as well as to the other Court. There were,
he believes', 1,000 licensed victuallers in the city of Lon-
don, and if the change were not made in compliance with
the demands and spirit of the times, to these individuals

be the case, but they
were frightened at their own
shadows the moment Parliament was spoken of, and still
without going to Parliament nothing could be done._
(Hear, hear.) Alderman Humphrey who was listened
to throughout without marked attention, then read the
motion as above.
Alderman HUGHES HUGHES suggested the propriety
of submitting a question of so much importance to a
committee to inquire into the expediency of an applica-
__

tion to Parliament.
Alderman WILSON seconded Alderman Humphery's
proposition. All parties had, he said, agreed that the
time had arrived for an application to Parliament
for the reform of a portion of London, which had,
notwithstanding all that had been threatened and
promised and predicted, ever since the Reform Bill

went of which, made the r —arporAtion of Lomion the

It was an absurd and fatal jealousy which interfered with
the power to render the two bodies of the corporation
effective, and largely beneficial to the community, pos.
sesaing as they did the elements of good.—(lfear, hear.)
He concurred in the proposition that the franchise ought
to bp enlarged. The only doubt which came across his
mind related to those cases in which individuals
paid SU each for their freedom.—(Hear' hear.) He
believed, however, that there was a remedy applicable to
that condition.—(Hear, hear.) '
rhere were some
alarmists who said, that if the corporation went to Par-

it would become the counterpart of the other municipal

might be the opinion entertained by the country, the
Court of Aldermen was not the court to object to an ap-
plication to Parliament for improvement in its constitu-
tion.—(l-lear, hear.) Some people might have disagree-
able forebodings, but he had a firm belief upon being
fairly treated in Parliament.

Sir P. LAURIE seconded Alderman Hughes Hughes'
amendment. He did not believe there was any
necessity for going to Parliament, and he had every
reliance upon the discretion and zeal of the Court of
Common Council, who were perfectly justified in bring-
ing forward the measure to which such unreasonable
objection had been made in the Court of Aldermen.
With respect to the duration of the poll he did not see
how the constituency would be benefited by limiting the
time of elections. The period occupied in a contest
gave the constituency an opportunity of ascertaining the
foundation of objections to the candidates, and there
were instances in which two very queer characters would
have been sheriffs, if it had not been for the inquiry
which the Livery were enabled to make by the duration
of the poll into the merits of the candidates.—(Hear,
hear, and a cry of "We all remember that," and
laughter.) It would be very desirable to adjourn the
subject under discussion, until the result of the reference
to the committee, and the whole Court of Common
Council, should be known.

Alderman WooD showed that there existed a strong
necessity for going to Parliament as speedily as possible,
for the purpose stated in the proposition of Alderman
liumphery had intimated the fact that, several years
ago, he had brought forward the question, amongst
others, involving the principal details connected with
corporation reform.

Alderman COPELAND supported the original motion.
A committee would inevitably cause delay, and delays
are, in so vital a case, dangerous.
Alderman THOMPSON also supported the original mo-
tion, but was of opinion that the Bill, when brought in
by the Remembrancer, should undergo in all its clauses
the most vigilant examination.
The amendment of Alderman Hughes Hughes was
,then negatived by a majority of 12 to 5.
Sir CHAPMAN MARSHALL then moved as an amend-
ment the previous question, which was at once nega-
tived, only one hand having been held up for it.
Alderman lIIIMPHERY'S motion, with the addition
suggested by Alderman THOMPSON, that the Bill be
prepared by the Remembrancer, under the direction of
seven aldermen, was then adopted, no more than one
hand having been held up against it.
The Court then adjourned.
There were several members of the Court of Common
Council present, and they expressed in very plain lan-
guage their astonishment at the radical change exhibited
in the discussion of matters on which the Court had
been long accustomed to deliver opinions diametrically
opposite.
