MARGATE AND-RAMSGATE HARBOURS.

Mr: MOFFATfaekedChefir;tEorioi the Admi-
ralty why the report of the Select Committee appointed
to investigate the revenue, condition, and expenditure of
Ramsgate and Margate Harbours, which recommended
that all dues and tolls now exacted from vessels not ac-
tually entering Ramsgate Harbour should wholly cease
and determine, had not been carried into effect; and
whether it was the intention of her Majesty's Ministers
to introduce a Bill to carry out the recommendations of
the Select Committee?
... _ .

Sir F. BARING, who from the noise prevailing was
indistinctly heard, was understood to reply that he had
consulted the law officers in regard to the recommenda-
tions contained in the report of the Committee, and
that be found that those recommendations could not be
legally carried into effect.

ALDERMAN SALOMONS' RENEWED ATTEMPT
TO TAKE HIS SEAT.

The SPEAKER stated that he had received a letter from
David Salomons, Esq., relative to the entry of the proceed-
ings of the House on Friday last in his case, which he read.
as follows:

"Great Cumberland-place, July 21st, 1851.
" Sir,--I take the liberty to call your attention to a very
important omission in the record of the proceedings of the
House of Commons on Friday last, of all notice of my de-
mand to subscribe the oath of abjuration, and to declare to
my property qualification.
" Immediately after I had taken the oaths I read front a
paper which I held in my band the following words, 4 I have
now taken the oaths, in the form and with the ceremonies
that I declare to be binding on my conscience, in accord-
ance with the stat. 1 and 2 Vict. sap. 105, I now demand to
subsaribe the oath of abjuration, and to declare my property

the subject, and respectfully requesting that the minutes of
the proceedings of Friday last be amended. With the ut-

and humble servant,

" DAVID SALOMON&
To the Right Honourable the Speaker."
Whereupon the Speaker explained that the entry in the
votes had been carefully considered; that the declare.'
tion of Mr. Alderman Salomons was made after he had
been desired to withdraw, and therefore could not be
noticed as a proceeding of the House. Most of that
which the Hon. Member for Greenwich said was per-
fectly inaudible in this immediate part of the House;
but it appeared distinctly to me that after the Hon.
Gentleman had omitted the words " on the true faith of
a Christian," and, the clerk at the table having reported
that omission to me, I had ordered the Hon. Gentleman
to withdraw, it was the Hon. Gentleman's duty there-
upon to withdraw—(Hear, hear)—and, not having so
withdrawn, any statement subsequently made in the
House by the Hon. Gentleman was not before the House,
and had no claim to be placed on the records of the House.
Sir B. HALL then rose, and addressing the Speaker
said—Sir, it may be convenient to put the question

of the Exchequer,: on Friday evening, musts('
