COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY.

The SPEAKER then put the question, that the House re-
solve itself into a Committee of Supply, which being agreed to,
the Speaker left the chair,

On the question that the sum of 45,3091., be apportioned to
defray the salaries of the officers of the House of Lords, and the
per Mons of retired officers of that House,
A conversation ensued, in which Mr. Hume, Mr. Spring
Rice end Colonel Evans took part, and the Order was agreed to.
26,2001. were then voted to defray the expenses of the Houses
of Lords and Commons,

After a short discussion, in which Mr. Flume, Mr. G.
Lamb, Mr. Ewart, Lord Althorp, Sir Edward Knatchbull, Mr.
Spring Rice, Mr. Wilks, Mr. O'Dwyer, and Col. Evans, the
sum of 39,8001. was voted to make good the deficiency of the
fee fund for the Treasury without comment.

10,743/. were then voted to make good the deficiency in the
fee fund for the Home Department ; and 13,402/. for the same
fund in the foreign department.
After a few observations from Mr. Hume, Lord Palmerston,
Mr. Cobbett, and other Hon. Members,
The following votes were respectively agreed to without dis-
cussion, 12,275/. 12s. 3d., to make good the deficiency on the fee
fund for the Colonial Department ; 13,5001. for the fee fund of
the Hon. Privy Council; 2,000/, on account of salary to the
Lord Privy Seal; 7,5001. for contingent expenses and messen-
gers bills in the Treasury Department; 6,2841. for contingent
expenses and messengers' bills in the Home Department,
39,6001., for ,contingent expences and messengers' bills
in the Foreign Department; 5,6000/. for contingent expenses,
and messengers' bills for the Colonial Department; 5,453/. for
contingent expenses and messengers' bills for the Privy
Council ; and 4,366/. for contingent expenses and messengers'
bills for the First Lord of the Treasury, the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, &c.
The following sum, not exceeding 1,2641, to defray the
expenses of salaries and allowances granted to certain profes-
sors in the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge was pro-
posed.

Mr. WARBURTON had no objection to the grant, if there
was no University surplus funds that were available to this
object.

Mr. PRYME supported the grant.

.. -
Mr EW ART objected Ito the grant on the ground of the
exclusiveness of the Universities. If Dissenters were ad.
milted they would have much pleasure in agreeing to a much
larger sum. _ .

_
Mr. S. RICE said that the abmissibility of Directors into
those Universties was the opinion he could not say of the ma-
jority, but of the great mass of the residents at the Universities.
It was a growing opinion, and there was every probability before
Parliament met that it would be a matter of discussion in the
Universities. They ought, however, to be left to take their
own steps on the subject, of course throwing out suggestions,
lest compulsion might detest the most important object they
had in view.

Mr. POTTER said he could mention to the Hon. Member
for Cambridge a method of increasiue the funds of the Univer-
sity, namely, to admit the sons of Dissenters to participate of
the honours in science and literature which the Learned
Universities confer. At present, as was well known,
a Dissentor could not send his son to either of the
Universities, for before they can take a degree it is absolutely
necessary that the) declare their adherence to the doctrines of
the Established Church. Just before the Hon. Baronet corn.
plained of the smallness of the grant, he was about suggesting
its omission until the Universities were thrown open to all
classes of his Majesty's subjects.

Mr. HUME and Mr. TooKe would allow the grant to pass if
the Univenaties would withdraw their interdict on the London
University.
The vote was then agreed to
The House resumed. The CHAIRMAN reported progress,
and obinined leave to sit again this day.
The SPEAKER then left the Chair at 3 o'clock.

Lkt of the 111inority of 12, who at two o'clock in the
morning of the 16,h of August, voted for exten,fing the
