Lord STANLEY rose and said, having given notice that
it was my intention to move that the House do resolve itself'
into Committee upon the Irish Registration Bill, and the
hour of public business now having arrived, I would have
arisen with the intention of making such a motion, but
that I have been given to understand that ,the Noble Lord
the Secretary for the Colonies has a communication to make
to the House upon a subject upon which both sides of the
House must be unanimous—(Cheers)—as I consider it
very important that it should not be mixed up with any
questions of a political nature—(Cheers)—l have, there-
fore, abstained from using my right, as naturally the House
will expect that the first business to be proceeded with,
would be the motion of the Noble Lord; to him theref,:re I
give way. —( Cheers. )
