Mr. NEWDEGATE expressed himself surprised that Hon.
Gentlemen would not allow this Bill to be tested by a Com-
mittee.

Sir GEORGE GREY hoped the Bill would be allowed to
be read a first time. It was an unusual thing to oppose it
; on the first reading.
Mr. C. BERKELY agreed with the gallant Colonel (Sib-
, thorp) that the Bill ought to be handed over to the Govern-
ment, and certainly should not be discussed at that hour of the
night. lie moved that the House do now adjourn.
Mr. FORBES was surprised that Hon. Gentlemen should
meet this Bill at the very earliest stage, and oppose the first
reading. He trusted that, out of respect to the feeling of the
country, expressed at different meetings, and in courtesy to
the Government, the House would allow it to proceed.
The House then divided. The numbers were—
For the adjournment ... 6
