A few members dropped in who had taken part at
Chelmsford, but neither to-morrow's events there nor at
York produced speculation. Inquiries were, however,

quotation worth noting.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS.—TIIESDAY.
The Lord Chancellor took his seat on the woolsack at
five o'clock.

SEQUESTRATION BILL.

The Bishop of WINCHESTER moved the second reading
of this bill, the object of which was to deprive the bene-
ficed clergymen of the power of sequestrating their livings
for the payment of their creditors.
Lord CAIRNS opposed the bill, on the ground that it
made no provision for the payment of the debts of bene-
ficed clerks ; but, on the contrary, it deprived them of
the only means by which in most cases it was possible to
pay.

The Archbishop of YORK supported the bill, as he
thought it would lead to incalculable good, and because it
provided that in future the endowments of churches
should be regarded as trusts, and not as a freehold.
Lord WESTBURY did not approve of the principle of the
bill.

The Marquis of SALISBURY opposed the principle of the
bill ; but he would consent to the measure being referred
to a Select Committee.

After a few words from the Lord Chancellor, the
bill was read a second time, and referred to a Select Com-
mittee.

The Oyster and Mussel Fisheries Supplemental Bill
was read a third time and passed.
Their lordships adjourned at twenty minutes to seven.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—TUESDAY.
The Speaker took the chair at five minutes to four.
REVISION OF THE SCRIPTURES.

Mr. A. JOHNSTONE, on the part of Mr. C. Buxton, gave
notice that on the 14th of June he should move for the
appointment of a Royal Commission to consider the revi-
sion of the authorised version of the Scriptures.

THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 1870.

schemes which had been propounded for the improvement
of the Channel passage.
The motion was then withdrawn, Sir William Gallwey
being content with the discussion it had elicited.
THE EMIGRATION QUESTION.

Mr. W. M. TORRENS was about to move a resolution
that an humble address be presented to her Majesty
praying that she might direct measures to be taken to
provide passages to the colonies for intendfng emigrants,
who should be approved by competent authority, at cheap
and uniform rates of charge, when,
The SPEAKER ruled that it could not be put inasmuch
as there was a rule of the House, which prevented the
discussion of a proposition which was the same in sub-
stance as one already resolved upon in the session. A
similar proposal had been made in the present session,
and, therefore, Mr. Torrens's motion could not be con-
sidered.
