BATHS AND WASEIHOUSES.
_ _

The Earl of RADNOR said he thought that the Noble and
Learned Lord should have inquired into the circumstances of
the case on the bringing up of the Bill yesterday.
Lord BROUGHAM explained.
The Bishop of LONDON said he had proved, as far as it
could be proved, that there was a probability of the money
on the loan being repaid. When my Noble and Learned Friend
looks into the Bill, though he may think this or that provision
of the Bill might require modification, that he would not throw
the weight of his powerful talents into the scale against the Bill.
After a few words from Lord BROUGHAM,
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said the Bill was not be-
fore the House, and when it was, they would avail them-
selves of any suggestions that might conduce towards the ob-
ject of this Bill.

Earl GREY thought it was premature to discuss this ques
tion at present. . .

CORNWALL RAILWAY.

Lord BROUGHAM thought that the evidence in this Bill
should be printed and produced to the House.
Viscount TORRINGTON said he had no objection to the
production of the evidence in question.

move that the evidence laid before the Cornwall Railway Com-
mittee be printed.

builders of Dublin eomplaing of the privileges of
the guild of builders in the city of Dublin, and praying their
Lordships to establish perfect freedom to all.

Lord LANSDOWNE, in answer to a question by Lord
Portman, said he had seen the First Commissioner of the
Woods and Forests, who had received the Acts yesterday, and
had referred them immediateiy 'to the official referee.
NEWCASTLE AND CARLISLE RAILWAY.

Lord MONTEAGLE said, that this Company had come
to Pariiament for an extension of powers. He said, it had
been represented to him that this Company had far exceeded
its powers, and expended much more than the capital allowed
by law ; that this additional capital had been raised not
by the issue of &mit fide shares, but by an invention of the
directors, which virtually made it a lean. This was a repre-
sentation which, if found true, would make that company by
no means appear worthy of their Lordship's sanction. He
.moved- that-an account be 'ordered :showing the state of that
company from year to year.
Lord PORTMAN said, as .Chairman of the Committee be-
fore which this company had been sent, he felt bound to say
that be had heard nothing of it, although a private letter had
been sent him hinting at something of the same kind with what
their Lordships had heard.
Lord KINNAIRD said, that by the Railway Consolidation
Act the Board of Trade should take care that gates and stations
were provided when lines passed public roads on the level.
