IMPERIA L PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, Oct. 2.

The Earl of S4AFTESBURY took his seat on the Wool-
sack shortly after Tivelve o'Clock.
CORN-LAWS.

On our admission to.the gallery we found

The Earl of RADNOR entering into an explanation
of a statement he had made last night respecting the
average price of foreign corn. We understood the Noble
Earl to say that in stating the average at 40s, 6d. he had
omitted to mention the expense of freight, which would
be about ss. per quarter, and should have been added
to the average.
POOR-LAW COMMISSION.

On the motion of the Earl of REDESDALE the
Poor-law Commission Bill and the Population Payment
Bill were read a second time, and ordered to be com-
mitted on Monday.
The Expiring Acts Bill passed through Committee,

EXCHEQUER BILLS BILL.
Messengers from the House of Commons brought up
the Exchequer Bills Funding Bill and the ExChequer
Bills Appropriation Bill, which were read first time,
and ordered' to be read a second time on Monday.
Their Lordships then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, Oct., 2.
The SPEAKER took the Chair at TWelve o'clock.
•CRAWFORD presented a petition
froiiiihe.iilm and spirit-merchants and grocers of Bally.-
money, in the county of Antrim, Ireland. The peti-
tioners complain of a clause introduced into :a late Act,
prohibiting persons in Ireland holding a retail spirit-
license in conjunction with a grocer's license ; and state
that no such restriction exists in England or Scotland.
The petitioners pray that the said law be untended, and
that they may be placed on a footing of equality with the
spirit trader in England and Scotland.
EXCHEQUER BILLS FUNDING BILL

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER having
moved the order of the day for the third reading of
this Bill,

Mr. WILLIAMS said he wished to be informed by
the Right Hon. Gentleman whether the whole amount of
5,000,00(1. had been funded, distinguishing the amount
subscribed in Exchequer Bills, and the amount sub-
scribed in money.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said
that • the amount subscribed altogether amounted to
3,644,1:1001. ; but he could not tell the Hon. Gentleman
what portion had been subscribed in money, and what
portion in Exchequer Bills. Besides, the information
could be of no use, inasmuch as die parties might make
up the money in either way, as they should find it the
most convenient.

Mr. WILLIAMS said that if the whole amount of
three millions and a half should be subscribed in Ex-
chequer Bills, the Right Hon. Gentleman would, in that
case, fund more Exchequer Bills than he had originally
intended. In looking at the present state of the Money
Market he did not see any necessity for reducing the
present amount of Exchequer Bills. The last returns
he had, seen stated-that the amount of interest upon
Exchequer Bills was 2p.• _ •
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it
was only 2i-d. He could not then state what course
the Government Might find it more advantageous to
take, as he would thereby influence the Money Market.
The Government would adopt theplan which they found
least burdensome to the public.

The Bill was then read a third time, and passed. .
EXCHEQUER BILLS (APPROPRIATION) BILL.
On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EX-
CHEQUER, this Bill was read a third time and passed.
Mr. E. TENNENT gave notice that he should, early`
next Session, move for leave to bring in a Bill to amend
the law relating to designs in = anufactureF.
Mr. HAWES—As there was no partieular business
before the House, he would, take the opportunity of ask-
ing- a question of the Right Hon. Baronet the. Secretary
Ter the Home Department. Some time ago the Sixth
Report of the Prison Inspectors had been laid on the
table of the House. He (Mr. Hawes) had carefully gone
through that Report, and he found matter in it which
.was well deserving the attention of the Secretary for the
Hume Department. He considered the accounts there '
given showed there had been some gross violations of the-
law ; but having called the attention of the Hon. Baronet
to the fact he would not press it further, as he was assured
it would meet with instant redress.

Sit...JAMES GRAHAM was glad that the Hon.
Member had mentioned the subject, because he was quite
aware that the Report in question contained matter
worthy of the most serious attention.' -He had not had
time to give it the attention that was due' to the subject,
but he had issued instructions to the Inspectors of Prisons
to furnish an Appendix to their Report, calling his atten-
tion to such parts of it as showed any violation of the
law—what, according to law, was subject to the control
of the Secretary of State—.:and thirdly, what, in their
judgment required the interference. of the Legislature.
Adjourned.
