SOUTH AUSTRALIAN COLONIZATION.
On the motion of Mr. CHILDERS, the House went into Cony
mittee on the South Australian Colonization Bill.
In reply to a question from• Mr. H. HUGHES, tioas
Mr. SPRING RICE said that many of the valuable sugge.s f
of the Hon. Member for Essex had received the best attentionti°o
the promoters of the Bill. He particularly alluded to that po!o°.,
of his suggestions which recommended the limitation of territ .;
in the colony.

Mr. TOWP.R. opposed the Bill, because he found, on 10'1 5o
the preamble, it stated that there were a number of capitalists
that ' it
were anxious to emigrate, and therefore it was prof'''. b"
should be enacted, &c., but that was immediately followed
a number of clauses relating to paupers. He was much afraid
that parishes might become large purchasers of land a of
the Bill, and force their paupers to emigrate. The great eaust'lie
distress amongst the agricultural labourers of England was the
great influx of Irish labourers. He would have no objection to 1 5
Bill, if confined to Ireland, which was proved to have a sarYoue,
population • if it relieved that country it would, at the same for
relieve England, but he was certain that there was no need- of 1t
.Ids
that country. He then moved that in the 17th clause, the wovbi,
4, Great Britain" be struck out. He was determined to d
duty by divHUGiding the House upon amendment.
Mr H.HUGHES could not tagree with those who
matter a speculation, for he had not changed his opinion O' ot
making many inquiries upon the matter, and he found it was a ;cep
disinterested scheme upon the part of its promoters, He had hot
many of the parties who were waiting to embark, and they os
given the case every consideration amongst them. There warder.
possessed of 10,0001. which he was willing to embark in the wit e
taking, and he was not a young man, but one well versed in
ways of the world.
Mr. RUTHVEN suggested that there should be some c f
introduced, by which the Crown would come into possession °
rights given by the Bill to the Company, unless there had bell's,
defined population taken out within a given time, as wet, of
within the same time, there was not a certain portion
land located. He would support the- Bill in the Committee•ko
The Amendment was then put, and negatived without a divi,sos
The remaining clauses were then agreed to, and the report
ordered to be brought up on Monday.
The House then adjourned. calle:liitohuet

LORD HOLLAND'S PROTEST AGAINST VI S
REJECTION OF THE UNIVERSITY BILL•

Because, it seems to me unreasonable to confine the acader'llsci,
honours of a National University, or the degrees in arts and
ences (unconnected with Divinity) confirmed thereby, to the ni,ise
bers of any particular church. And it appears yet more unci,i.
and unjust to bar all such access to knowledge (not purely ecab-101
astical or theological) as a National University is, °agora
to affold, against those who cannot conscientiotoLY
pine
assent to the numerous propositions contained in the irl'irt•lf
Articles. Excellence- in the learned and liberal professions od por
and medicine in no degree depends upon religious belief, an re'
vidence not having annexed the avowal of any peculiar tanets 1/ can
ligious matters as the condition of attaining human knowl eclge!ionse
discover no motive of prudence or duty which should ind aCe
authority to impose any. VASSALL HOLI:4,IO'
