IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT

HOUSE OF LORDS—(Tins EvENnla.)

Lord REDESDALE, as Deputy-Speaker of the House ol
Lords, owing to the absence of the Lord Chancellor, took
his seat on the woolsack at five o'clock.

THE INCOME TAX IN INDIA.

The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH wished to put a ques-
tion to the noble duke asto a statement that had appeared in
the newspapers with respect to the financial scheme about
to be introduced into India. He wished to ask whether the
Government would be enabled to place the details of
the plan on the table of the house, and also
whether the Government had given their sanction and
approval to the same. He was extremely anxious about
the subject, because there was some mistake among private
soldiers as to whether they would become subject to the pro-
posed income-tax.
The Duke of ARGYLL said if such a scheme had been
proposed his noble friend the Secretary of State for India
was not aware of it when he had last seen him. The noble
earl had given no notice of his question, therefore he was
unprepared to give him any answer in an official manner ;
but he would beg noble lords to abstain from all observa-
tions prejudicial to the scheme till the Government had
given an accurate account of the subject.
PUBLIC BUSINESS.

The Duke of NEWCASTLE said it would be no doubt
acceptable if he stated the names of the bills he had alluded
to when he made that statement relative to the Easter re-
cess. The bills alluded to were the Income-tax Bill and
the Stamp Bill, both of which it was desirable should re-
ceive the Royal assent previous to the recess. With re-
spect to three other bills—viz., the Customs'Bill,the Paper
Duty Bill, and the Wine Licenses Bill, they would not be
gone on with until after the holidays.
The Earl of DERBY said he was glad it was not in-
tended to proceed with the repeal of the paper duty before
Easter.

THE ARMY ESTIMATES.
The Earl of D.BRBY said he wished to ask the noble duke
whether there was ,any truth in the report that the Govern-
ment intended to witiAraw the Army Estimates at present
before Parliament, with a view of increasing them ?
The Duke of NEWCATLE said the rumour referred
to by the noble earl (the _Bari of Derby) was true to a
certain extent. It was the intention of the Go-
dernment to withdraw the pre.!,ent Army Estimates,
not with a view of increasing them, but merely to reprint
them. The estimates had been formed :upon the Imposition
that only a certain number of troops would return from In-
dia, but a larger number having returned it became neces-
sary to make other arrangements. It was to make certain
corrections, and not to make any increase, that rendered it
necessary to withdraw the estimates, to make provision to
meet the altered corrections.
PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The Leicester Gas Bill was read a second time.
The following bills were read a third time and passed :
Matlock Water, East Indian Coal Company, and Silver-
dale and Newcastle Railway.
CHARITABLE USES BILL

Lord CRAN WORTH said owing to domestic bereave-
ment, the Lord Chancellor was prevented being present
that evening. Under such circumstances, therefore, he
.should withdraw his motion with reference to this bill until
Monday, the 23d of April.
