office dependent on the will of the Government. Unless he
had an assurance from the Government that Baron Rich-
ards would, if the commission wore continued for another
year or more, be restored to his court, in which there was a
great arrear of business, he would oppose the vote.
Mr. J. FITZGERALD observed that the question of
the reform of the Encumbered Estates Court was under the
consideration of a committee upstairs, and until that com-
mittee reported he was not in a position to state whether
the existing staff of the Encumbered Estates Court would
be continued, or whether its functions would bo transferred
to some other tribunal. He eulogised the ability exhibited
by Baron Richards in presiding over the court in question.
Col. DUNNE thought the vote ought to be suspended
until the government decided upon the course they intended
to take, and he proposed a motion to that effect.
Mr. WHITESIDE also urged that the vote should be
withdrawn.

Mr. FITZGERALD observed that whatever might be
tlzo nitiruate decision, the court would doubtless exist for
the period over which the vote extended—viz., until March
net: year.
Mr .WIIITESIDE, on the ground that the explanation
was not satisfactory, moved that the chairman report pro-
.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER explained
that if any change took place by which the services of the
Chief Commissioner, or any other officer of the court were
dispensed with before March next, only so much of the sa-
laries as were due at the period of the alteration would be
paid.
Lord NAAS supported the proposal for
_postponing the
vote.
Lord PALMERSTON remarked that whatever might be
the decision of the committee it was not likely that any
leghdative action would be taken in consequence of it at
this late period of the session.
After an observation from Mr. HENLEY,
The vote was allowed to pass.
The following votes *ere then agreed to :-
3,000/. for the Irish census.
3,000'. Gallery of Arts in Ireland.
29,4001. for lighthouses abroad.
15,0001. for the Australian exploring expedition.
17,5001. monument at Scutari.
On this vote,
Colonel NORTH suggested that the monument ought
to be erected in some place iu this country. (Hear.) The
grounds of Chelsea Hospital would be a suitable site.
There might also be a testimonial at Scutari.
Mr. STAFFORD hoped the Government would perse-
vere in their original determination to [place the monu-
ment at.Scutari. Considering the number of brave men
who had died there, and the associations connected with
that spot, it was most desirable that a monument should
bo erected there worthy of the object. (Hear.) He re-
joiced to know that some part of the monument had al-
ready been sent out. If necessary, let an additional suns
be voted for a similar monument at Chelsea. (Hear.)
Mr. BOWYER did not think that a monument at Scu-
tari was necessary to preserve the graves of the brave men
there interred from desecration. He thought the amount
proposed exorbitant for a monument at Scutari, looking
at the price of materials there. A sum of 80,030/. had
been voted for the funeral of the Duke of Wellington, and
now it appeared there was a sum of 25,000/. remaining.
Before voting 17,0001. for a monument at Scutari they
ought to know something about it, and what artist was to
be employed. These hap-hazard votes did more harm than
good. He suggested that the vote should be postponed till
proper information was laid befoi e the committee.
Lord PALMERSTON said the monument was the work
of a very eminent artist now resident in this country.. It
was one of extreme beauty, and the admiration of all who
had seen it. The vote was not proposed at all at random.
He quite agreed` that Scutari was the proper place for the
monument. (Cheers.) It would be disgraceful to the
British nation to have it anywhere else than ou the scene
where these brave men displayed their gallantry. It was
now too late to alter their intention, for, as had been
stated, part of the monument was on its way to Scutari.
Mr. BOWYER said there ought to be an opportunity
for men of art in this country to criticise and examine the
monument before any'money was voted for it.
L.)rd PALMERSTON said if the hon. gentleman had
gone to the Crystal Palace he might have seen a fac simile
of the monument.
Tee vote was then agreed to.
3,6911., Orange River Sovereignty (Cape of Good Trope).
After a short explanation from Mr. LABOUCHER
this vote was agreed to.
3.),3311. for the Audit-office.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS moved that the chairman report
progress, but he did not persevere in pressing the motion
to a •tivision. The vote was therefore agreed to.
Mr. WILSON gave notice that the education votes
woald bo taken this evenin,;, after class A.
The CHAIRMAN then reported progress.
DUBLIN METROPOLITAN POLICE BILL.

On th' question that this bill be read a second time,
Mr. GROGAN protested against proCeeding with it at
that hour—half-past 12.

Mr. HORSMA.N said the bill merely re-enacted exist-
ing laws ; and there could, therefore, be no objection to
its principle.
Mr. Vance, Mr. I. Butt, and Mr. T. O'Brien demurred
to this description of the bill, and insisted on its postpone-
ment.
Mr. GROGAN moved that the house do now adjourn.
The bill was then postponed.
JOINT STOCK BANKS BILL.
On the order of the day for the adjourned debate, on
going into committee on this bill,
Mr. VANCE moved that the debate be again ad-
journed. _ _

- Sir J. V. SHELLEY said the only provision of the
bill was to allow shareholders in banks to re-elect directors
without their being out of office for a year. The bill con-
tained only about 15 lines.

Mr. SPOONER said, though the bill contained only 15
lines, it would require a great deal of settling.
Mr. PELLATT hoped the house would proceed with the
bill.
The house then divided, when there appeared

Mr. I. BUTT move the second. reading of this bill,
saying he did so on the understanding that it should be re-
ferred to a select committee. •

Mr. KIRKE objected to. the bill, and moved that it be
resale, seemd time that day six months.
Lord NAAS said it was clear they could not discuss the
bill to night, and sold he should object to its being pro•
'netted with at any time unless it could be discussed.
Colonel DUNNE moved that the debate be adjourned.
Sir G. GREY said it mould be better to postpone the
bill and fix it for an early period.
Mr. I. BUTT expressed a hope that the bill should be
proceeded wife, seeing that a royal commission had been
issued on the subject.
Lord PALMERSTON said ho could not fix a day for
the bill, but there were Wednesdays, and they would
soon be obliged to have morning sittings. He thought it
was a subject on which there should be legislation.
The debate was then adjourned until this day.
