asked their Lordships to recollect, on the other he al&
that the state of the country was in a great meta ure
caused by the bad management of such property
(Hear, hear.) Ile hoped that their Lordships vet
seeing:the importance of the measure itself, the :et aPI, e'
consideration it had received, and the authority by hick
it was supported, with as little delay as possible, Wept
the amendments and pass it into a law.
Lord STANLEY briefly replied. He denied the thA
oppose,l the Bill for the mere purposes of delay. A Ito
the high authority of the Noble and Learned Lord
the Woolsackt,no one had a higher respect for that No hie
and Learned Lord than he had ; but he must remiad
their Lordships that the Noble and Learned Lord h ad
not always entertained the same opinions on this B
Ile would at once abandon his opposition to this I till
if either of the Noble and Learned Lords in the House'
would rise in his place, and say that :it was.
either safe or expedient to apply the pr covisions
of this Blil to England and Scotland. W ith re-
spect to the shortness of time, he protested agai est th 4
doctrine, that their Lordships should be held to time
anything of measures until they came formally befori
them, or that their Lordships were bound, day • after
day, to read all the amendments that might be pie >posed
on Bills either by the Government or by other pr >nonce
Ho claimed for their Lordships the right of fully lelibe-'
rating on every question after it came constituti ovally
before them.—(Hear, hear.) He now asked for ti me, in
order to get the necessary explanations from Nob le and
Learned Lords as to the real operation of thi new
clauses. He knew the fate of his motion; but he : fleould
not be discharging his duty if he did not take the Si num
of their Lordships on the question.
The LORD CHANCELLOR explained. 13e had
formerly objected to the creation of a ney juri. tditt tion
in Ireland, on the ground that the Court of Chan sur y in
that country was already supported at the exp, ma a of
the country, and ought to be sufficient. The a mead-
ments did not create a new jurisdiction, but gave facili-
ties for sales, without the intervention of the Ci sort in
certain cases, and under certain restrictions. Th ere was
no inconsistency in supporting that alteration.
Lord LANGDALE said the principle of the I lir' was
not to facilitate the sale of iucumberedj estates under
contract for that purpose, but to facilitate sales an st with-
standing there were nu contracts of that kind. The
principle was to facilitate the sale of estates, the pro-
prietors of which were unable to discharge the ditties
pertaining to them. The principle of the Bill bsei 1 been
already agreed to, and this, therefore, could not b called
a new Bill. The Noble Lord (Stanley) asked al lather
such a Bill would have been proposed for Eng land ?
If the condition of England was the same as tl sat of
Ireland, he might not perhaps propose precisely t hi el Bill,
because he feared those clauses might render it opera.
tive ; but he should certainly support a Bill with even
more stringent. provisions.
