TVORK FOR NEXT SESSION.

The Parliamentary session recently closed, pro-
tracted as it was, does not appear to have been suf-
ficiently long to afford opportunities to members of
the House of Commons to bring forward various
subjects in which they feel an interest, and conse.-
quently the Notice-book of the house exhibits a
rather numerous list of notices to be made " early
next session," being no less than 63 in number, and
referring to the most varied subjects. Mr. Scully's
name stands conspicuous, that gentleman having
given no less than 11 notices of motion ; the sub-
jects intended to be mooted by him being the Re-
gistration of Title to Land, the Time of Passing the
Estimates, a Committee to Inquire into Public Ex-
penditure and Taxation, the Irish Vice-Royalty,
the Assimilation of Laws in England and Ireland,
the Exclusion of Roman Catholics P.,..0m Offices of
Trust, the Exclusion of Irishmen frrxn the Cabinet,
the Deportation of Irish P*vipers, and Na-
tional Education in Ireland. Sir F. Smith has
given three notices of motion,a.e most important of
which is for an address for a. commission to inquire
into the fortifications of commercial harbours. Sir S.
Acton proposes to call attention to the treatment of
Roman Catholic inmates of prisons and workhouses.
Mr. Ayrton intends to move for a committee to in-
quire into local taxation and government. Mr..
Black has four notices, the most important of which
refers to the inadequate provision for measuring
grain in the port of London. Sir C. Burrell, the IF
" father of the house," proposes to reintroduce
his bill to diminish danger incurred by servants and
others employed in cleaning
windows. Mr. Butt
will move an address to the Crown upon the sub-
ject of national education in Ireland ; and Mr:
Childers will ask for a select committee to inquire
into the subject of transportation. Mr. Dillwyn
proposes to introduce a bill to amend the law re-
lating to endowed schools. Mr. Dodson has placed
three notices upon the paper, the chief of which is
a bill to repeal the Excise duty upon hops. Sir De
L. Evans will move an address to the Crown upon
the subject of a fortified work upon Shooter's-hill
and the defence of London. Mr. W. Ewart, moved
no doubt by the irnmensepressure of business dur-
ing the late session, has given notice of resolutions
to the effect that it is advisable to consider whether
the private business might not be conducted by
tribunals to be appointed, subject to the reconside-
ration and supervision of the House ; also whether
it would not 'oe well to relegate certain matters now
submitted to Private Bill Committees to municipal
corporations. The hon. member further suggests
that the House of Commons should be divided into
committees of seven members each, as the Com-
mittees of Finance, of Law, &c. ; to which cora-
, mittees the bills appertaining to the several subjects
shall be referred. Mr, Hubbard propotes to deal with
the vexed subject of church-rates, and also to call the
attention of the House to the direct taxation of the
country. Sir F. Kelly intends to propose the reduc-
tion of the malt duty to 10s. per quarter, and in the
event of that proposition being unsuccessful Mr.
Cobbett intends to move for a select committee to
inquire into the subject of the malt duties. Colonel
Lindsay will propose an address upon the subject
of grievances suffered by certain colonels in the
army. Mr. Mellor will call attention to the reso-
lution of the House of Lords fixing a period after
which no bills will be received from the Commons,
except supply bills and measures of urgency, and
will submit a motion upon the subject. Mr. A.
Mills will ask for a committee to inquire into our
colonial military expenditure ; and Mr. M. Milnes
will propose a committee to inquire into the condi-
tion of our diplomatic service. Mr. Potts will sub-
mit that monthly collections be made in churches
for the support of the fabrics in lieu of church-
rates. Mr. H. Seymour has two notices of motion
upon the subject of the Ecclesiastical Commission,
and one for a select committee to inquire into the
relations of the Secretary of State for India with
his Council. Sir I. Shelley intends to ask leave to
introduce a Bill to Amend the Gasworks Clauses
Act of 1848, and another Bill to Reform the Cor-
poration of the City and Liberties of Westfainster.
Mr. Augustus Smith will again bring forward the
subject of foreshores. Mr. Warner purposes to ap-
point a select committee to inquire what changes it
may be desirable to introduce in order to amend the
representation of the people ; and Mr. Wyld will
ask for leave to bring in a bill to amend
law relating to the taking of votes at elections for
members of Parliament.
