PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS (SCOTLAND) BILL.
On the order for considering the Commons' amend-
ments to this bill,
The Duke of ARGYLL said, knowing the majority
which the noble duke opposite had on this bill, he should
not trouble their lordships to divide. He regretted that
this bill, which was a compromise between the two par-
ties in Scotland, was not agreed to by the noble duke.
He conceived that they must fall back in Scotland upon
what was called the denominational system. In Eng-
land there could be no doubt that that system, under
the aids granted by the Committee of Privy Council,
had, on the whole, operated in favour of the Estab
lished Church. In Scotland he did not believe that it
would operate in the same manner. There was a feeling
of jealousy and dislike on the part of the Free Church
against tne great landowners of Scotland, which was
aroused in 1842, and which he was sorry to say had not
yet diminished. They had in Scotland a great rival body
conducting most successfully a system of education.
The Duke of BUCCLEUCH urged that the compro-
mise was one which went to get rid of the great principle
on which the Scotch parochial schools were founded, and
he contended that there ought to be a religious test for
the schoolmasters. This was the first step of an attack
against the Church itself; for what was good reason for
abolishing tests in the schools would be a good reason
for abolishing them in the Church. He also urged that
the school system of Scotland was essentially a national
one, f ,r the children of all denominations were freely ad-
mitted into the schools without reference to their profes-
sion of faith, and that with the consent of their parents.
He regretted that it was impossible to do otherwise than
move that the first amendment of the Commons be agreed
to, but that the second be disagreed to.
After some remarks from Lord PANMIIRE and the
Earl of HADDINGTON,
The first amendment was agreedto, and the second was
negatived.
firiTheir lordships then adjourned.

be is required to attend the house: and he does not ap-

him to understand what was hanging over his head ; the

grand jury of Tipperary found a-trtie bill against him ;
the Government issued a warrant for his apprehension;

he could not be found ; and what is the inevitable con-

sequence? Why, that he tied the country to evade jus•
tice. The only other case which 1 will cite, though
there are many of them, is that of Mr. Benjamin Walsh,
who was tried and convicted of fraud in 1812 ; and in

Her Majesty's ship Tribune, 31, Captain 11. Edgell,

conducted by Vice-Admiral Sir George Seymour, Rear-
Admiral Martin, and Captain the Hon. J. R. Drum-

Mr. Wethered's method of superheating steam, which
was applied and tested for experimental purposes on
board he Admiralty yacht Black Eagle last winter in
Woolwich basin, has been ordered by the Lords of the
Admiralty to be continued on board the steam troopship
Dee, which vessel has been fitted so as to carry out the
intended course of experiments more fully. The success
of the system will, it is said, create considerable economy
in the consumption of fuel, and will thereby reduce the
expense attending the use of steam machinery to from
30 to 40 per cent.
The sailing transport Marshal Bennet, Capt. Harris,
is discharging in the Victoria Docks a cargo of tenser•
viceable 24-pounders and other guns, and 10-inch mor-
tars, from Balaklava.
Yesterday morning a draught of convalescent invalids,
to the number of 130 non-commissioned officers and
men, belonging to nearly every regiment in the service,
left St. Mary's Casemate Barracks, Chatham, and pro-
jeeded to their homes at the expense of the Govern-
ment. Nearly the whole of the men had been invalided
home from the Crimea.
The conclusion of the war and the consequent dis-
charge of so many transport steamers lately in the ser-
vice of the Government have caused the Southampton
d )cks to be almost choked with steam-ships waiting
destinations and employment. During the war the
Royal Mail Company's fleet provided six vessels—viz ,
the Orinoco, Severn, Great Western, Medway, Thames,
and Trent ; of these the four former have returned
and are discharged from their duties, while the
latter will shortly be disengaged. In addition,
this company , have lying at Southampton the
Atrato, the Tay, Tyne, and Prince, all of which are em-
ployed in the West Indies, Pacific, and South American
mail service. Of the Peninsular and Oriental Company
there are in dock the Colombo,' Pera, Manilla, Alham-
bra, Aden, Rajah, Candia, Sultan, and Ava, screw,
aid the Ripon, and Tagus, paddles, the principal of
which have been actively engaged throughout the war
in the conveyance of the British army to the East. The
General Screw Company also exhibit a fine fleet of stea-
mers, comprising the Indiana, Hyda.spes, Golden Fleece,
Jason, Queen of the South, Harbinger, Earl of Auck-
land, and Sir Robert Peel, most of which have mate-
rielly contributed to the requirements of the transport
service. Besides these steamers there are several be-
longing to the South-Western Company which ply be-
tween Havre and Southampton and to the Channel
Islands. This fleet, which is the largest ever congre
gated in Southampton Ducke, shoes a total of nearly
54,000 tons burden and 12,000-horse power. The
future destiny of the vessels is now under consideration.
The Royal Mail Company intend to sell several of their
older ships, which in the meantime are to be moored in
the Southampton Water, while the Peninsular Company
will draught off a portion of their suitable screws to as-
sist in performing the mail service to India. Had the
Government decided upon adjudicating to this company
the conveyance of the made to Australia, they could
immediately have placed efficient vessels upon the route.
The General Screw Company's vessels for the present
are to remai❑ at Southampton, and their future use will,
no donbt, depend upon the arrangements which may be
made with the French Clipper Company.
The Brilliant, 20 guns, sailing frigate, Capt. James A.
Paynter, at Sheerness, is ordered to proceed to Halifax,

HOUSE OF COMMONS.--( _ "Ar
ESTERDAY.)
FRANCE AND SPAIN.
Mr. MURROUGH asked whether the Governmen,
was prepared to adopt any, and what, means, for the
prevention of the armed interference of France in the
internal affairs of Spain?
Viscount PALM ERSTO.N—I apprehend that there
is nothing at present in regard to the affairs of Spain
that could in any way lead to any interference on the
part of the French Emperor in those affairs. With re-
gard to the general question, I may state that the Em-
peror of the French is a man of great justice, and will,
no doubt, feel in any case that any foreign interference
in the affairs of the Spanish nation would be unjust.
He is also a man of great sagacity ; and the lessons of
the past show that those of France who have been led
to interference in the affairs of Spain have always,
sooner or later, found that their interference was more
or less destructive to themselves. (Hear, hear.) There
can be no reason for apprehending that any intention
exists on the part of the French Government to inter-
fere in the affairs of Spain. (Hear, hear.)
THE MISSION TO BELGIUM.
Mr. W. WILLIAMS said he had seen a statement of
the Earl of Westmoreland being sent on a mission to Bel-
gium, to congratulate the King of the Belgians, he sup-
posed. He wished to ask at whose expense that mission
had been undertaken !
Lord PALMERSTON—I am afraid my hon. friend
will have to contribute his share to it. (Laughter.)
MR. JAME 3 SADLEIR.
On the motion for proceeding to the orders of the day,
Mr. ROEBUCK rose and said—l believe, according
to the rules of this house, that I have precedence in this
motion I am about to make for the expulsion of a member
of this house. I am about to ask the house to exercise a
power inherent in the house, of the greatest possible im-
portance both to its honour and to its efficiency and power
in the country. I am not going to ask the house to exer-
cise this power on any light ground, or upon an occasion
on which any one might turn round upon me and say
that I am about to establish a precedent which is dan-
gerous to this house. I am about to ask it to pass judg-
ment, not by way of punishment to the member whom I
suppose to be guilty, but to free itself from the com-
panionship of a man who has disgraced himself In the
,yes of his country. I do not ask the house upon this oc-
casion to consider itself a court of judicature, for that it
cannot be. It cannot administer an oath ; and all I ask
of it is to satisfy its own conscience that what I say is
correct. And if they will take the statement as statements
of a member of this house are always taken, as conclusive
as to the facts of which he is himself cognisant, I think
upon this occasion I shall ask them successfully to accede
to the motion with which I shall conclude. The motion
I have to make is—
" That Mr. James Sadleir, the member for Tipperary,
he expelled this house."
The grounds on which I make this motion are as follows :
I do not say that the member for Tipperary is guilty of
the charges brought against him. With that I have
nothing to do. But alt I have to say is, that charges
have been brought against him derogatory to his honour,
destructive of his power and capacity as a member of
this house, sum as, if fixed upon him, and not rebutted
by him, are a disgrace to this house so long as he remains
a member thereof. I say these charges have been brought
asainst him ; into their truth I will not inquire. But
what I do charge him with is that he, knowing that
these charges were brought against him, fled from jus-
tics, evaded the accusation, and did not attempt the
defence. The charge then that I make is, not that be
is guilty of the crime, but that having fled from it, he
has confessed himself guilty ; and all that I have to make
out to this house is that he has fled from the accusation,
and when I make out that the accusation is made and
that he has flsd, I lay sufficient ground for this house to
expel him. The first part of the accusation is that he has
been charged with crime. I hold in my band some papers
which have just been laid on the table of this house. The
first is a bill of indictment found at the Clonmel assizes
by the grand jury of that county, or rather a certified
abstract of the bill of indictment ; and it says that "upon
search made amongst the records of the county, we find
that at a general assize and gaol delivery held in Clon
mel in and for the South Riding of the county Tipperary,
on the 18th day of July, in the 20th year of her Ma
jesty's reign, a true bill of indictment has been found
against James Sadleir, charging, in the first count"—
sild so it goes en with eight counts, charging him with
fraud. That is upon the 18th of July. Upon the 19th
of Juno the Master of the Rolls in Ireland, irs delivering
a judgment, used these words—" It is now necessary to
go to the succeeding -tage of this transaction, and which
I believe is unparalleled in the annals of fraud." So that
he was quite aware, so early as the 19th of June, that he
was charged with fraud. On last Friday I, in this house,
gave notice that I should make a motion calling on the
hon. member—l ought not to call him the hon. member
—the member for Tipperary ; I gave notice that I
would make a motion on Monday last that the member
for Tipperary should attend in his place on this day, in
order that he might appear in this house when I made a
motion for the expulsion of that member. So that he
had notice, first by a judgment delivered by the Master
of the Rolls as far back as the 19th of June, that he was
charged with fraud. On the 18th July an indictment is
found against him by the grand jury of Clonnnel. Some
time before that warrants were issued by the Govern.
ment for his apprehension ; and we have sent down from
this house a messenger who bas gone to Publin and to
Tipperary in order to find him. He is not there. We
have been unable to find him. Therefore I conclude that
he has fled from justice ; and having fled from justice,
with that charge over his head, I say that he is unworthy
to sit as a member of this house. It may be said that I
am about to make a dangerous precedent in this case. A
dangerous precedent ! It may be said to me—" Suppose
that you had gone to America, and that some member
had got up in his place and said, I shall, on Thursday
Next, make a motion that Mr. Roebuck do appear in his
place, when I shall make a motion for his expulsion from
the house." I answer that argument in this way. If
there had been a charge made against me by the Master
of the Rolls —if there had been an indictment found
against me—if there had been a warrant issued against
ine—it the house had sent its messenger to find me, and
I was not in my place— if I did not appear personally—
what objection could there be to such a motion as this ?
But it may be said, " Why hasten this ! Where is the
danger if we wait till next session !" Wait till next ses-
sion ! Have we not waited long enough already ? It is
as if a man should lie down by a dead body, and at-
tempt to repose himself in the noisomeness thereof. I
say that this house, allowing a 'member who is thus
charged to abscond from justice, and allowing him the
name of a member of this house, does itself dishonour;
and, in order to avoid that dishonour, I would cut off this
peccant member. It is not as if, by the expulsion of this
member, we rendered him incapable of being re-elected.
The case of John Wilkes has established that an ex-
pulsion from this house does not render a man incapable
of being re-elected. Supposing his expulsion to be
passed to night, he can go down, if be pleases, into Tip•
perary to-m, rrow and propose himself for re-election.
But will he do so ! I appeal to this house—l appeal to
every gentleman here, if he is not sure in his heart that
the man has evaded justice, and that we are now about
to do justice upon him, and justice to ourselves, by ex-
pelling him ? I do not fear this precedent. It may be
said that there is no conviction. There is none ; but by
my proposition I do not require a conviction. I say
that this fleeing from justice is of itself sufficientfor this
house to satisfy its conscience that the man is guilty.
Nobody pretended to say that he would not have a fair
trial. Therefore I say that he is guilty, and has con-
fessed himself guilty by his flight. I will now cite a
few precedents fur the proceeding I propose. The
first case is one which took plaoe in 1752, in the
reign of George 11. A person named George Robin-
son having been charged in Parliament with fraudu-

THE DEATH OF ADMIRAL GLYNlC—Admiral Henry
Richard Glynn died on Sunday last at his residence at
Bideford, Devon, at the age of 87 years. The admiral
was the son of Sergeant Glynn, formerly M.P. for Mid-
dlesex. He entered the navy as fist class volunteer in
1780 on board the Bellona, 74, Capt. Richard Ous
whom he accompanied to the West Indies. From 1783
until he obtained his first commission in 1790 he served
afl uit on the different stations at Portsmouth, Jamaica,
and Halifax. He joined in Feb., 1794, the Royal
George, 100, bearing the flag of Admiral Lord Bridport,
under whom he took part in the "glorious" let of June,
and also in the action of the 23d of June, 1795. In
October the following year he was appointed to the
Scourge, 16, and white in the command captured Le
Furet, French privateer of 10 guns, and 50 men. In
April, 1798, he was made a post captain, and subse-
quently had the command of several ships, the last the
Vanguard, 74, which he commanded on service in the
Baltic from Jan., 1809, until Dec., 1811. His commis-
sions were dated as follow :—Lieutenant, Oct. 28, 1790 ;
commander, June 29, 1795 ; captain, April 10, 1797 ;
rear-admiral, July 19, 1821 ; vice-admiral, Jan. 10, 1837 ;
and admiral, Nov. 9, 1846. The deceased had received
the silver war medal and two clasps, and also the medal
awarded to the officers who served i❑ Lord Howe's fleet
from the let June. The late admiral served the office
of Mayor of Plymouth i❑ 1838. Lieut. H. R. Glynn,
R.N,, is son of the deceased admiral.

TII iUN I.ON DON, FRIDAY EVENING, JULY 2r, :655

that case, although the conviction had been quashed on
technical grounds, Mr. Walsh was expelled the house.
Sir F. Burdett, who at that time was at the head of the
liberal party, voted for the expulsion. Mr. Wynne, a high
authority on such subject-, said the house " ought to take
an important trust out of the hands of a person who was
unworthy to hold it." Mr. Perceval took the same view.
So that in this case, after an acquittal had taken place,
the member was expelled because the house was

convinced that, though he was not legally, he was mo-
rally guilty of the fraud. We are not here as a court of
justice, but we are bound to protect the dignity and
honour of the house. These kiting my opinions, and feel-
ing that the honour and dignity of the house are compro•
mired as long as James Sadleir remains a member of it,
I beg leave to move that he be expelled.
Mr. NAPIER seconded the motion, and said that the
question involving important considerations, the house
ought to see its way clearly before they came to any
decision. This was a case in which the honour and

dignity of the house and the rights of the constituency
of Tipperary were concerned. A notion prevailed
that the house had no materials, technically speaking, to

act upon. But it was confounding the jurisdiction o
a court of law with the jurisdiction of the House o
Commons to suppose that the same kind of evidence
was required in both. The House of Commons could
not examine [upon oath, they did not require the
technicalities which were indispensable in a court of
law ; it was enough for the House of Commons to
have before it what would satisfy its conscience, especially
with regard to matterisaffectiog the members of the house.
It was enough for the house to know that it had facts
before it on which it could fairly and reasonably act.
The ease was one in which they must be guided by pre-
cedent. In 1807 a committee of the House of Commons
bad examined all the precedents of expulsion, they col-
lected all the cases and arranged them in chronological
order. Some of these cases established the fact that it
was enough for the house to be convinced of the moral
turpitude of the offender, even though he had not been
legally convicted of crime; and there were one or two re-
markable cases where the house expelled an unworthy
member, and afterwards addressed the Crown that the
parties might be prosecuted by the Attorney-General. The
first case of expulsion referred to by the committee oc-
curred in 1558, and there were other cases in 1620 and
1710. In the case of Atkinson, who had been indicted for
perjury, the Attorney-General moved that he be expel-
led the house after he absconded from justice. Sir S.
Romilly said he would vote for the expulsion of Lord
Cochrane on the facts of the case, although he believed
he had been improperly convicted. In the case of Walsh,
the house expelled that person after he had been con-
victed of felony, though the judges subsequently decided
that it was not a felony of which he had been found
guilty. He admitted that the minority against the expul-
sion in that case, though only 18 in number, was respect-
able authority, including, as it did, the names of Sir R.
ltotnilly, Lord Brougham, and the father of the present
Speaker. He admitted they ought not, on the grounds
of mere suspicion, to be carried away and vote the ex-
pulsion of a member. But this was a peculiar and special
case. The facts were notorious. The Master of the
Rolls declared that a gigantic fraud bad been committed ;
the Attorney-General was of opinion that the party
was guilty of conspiracy ; he embodied that opinion
in an indictment ; the grand jury found a true bill ;
a warrant had been issued for the apprehension
of the party ; he had not answered the summons
of the house ; the constituency of Tipperary were
substantially without a member ; and, it, under these
circumstances, they shrunk from the duty imposed on
diem, they would be holding out a miserable example of
their own timidity, and avowing that a roan might be
charged with a crime of the greatest turpitude, might fly
from justice, and not respond to the order of the house,
and yet be entitled to be called the " honourable" mem-
ber for Tipperary.
The SPEAKER asked whether the hon. and learned
member for Sheffield wished to have the documents read
by the clerk at the table ?
Mr. ROEBUCK said he did not think it would be
necessary.
Mr. WORTLEY appealed to the house whether it
would not be better in a case of so much importance,
whether it would not be the wiser coerse, to take more
time for the consideration of these documents and the
precedents which had been referred to ? (Hear, hear.)
Ele believed he was norrect iu saying that none of the
precedents quoted were identical with the present
case. (Hear, hear.) Here was the case of a member
charged, no doubt, with the greatest possible fraud—
fraud for which there was no mitigation or excuse. That
charge of fraud now resolved itself into one of conspiracy,
and a prosecution was hanging over the head of the
party on that charge. It appeared that he left the coun-
try before the warrant was out against him, and for
aught they could tell he might yet appear. He knew
cases where persons had kept out of the way that they
might not spend three or four months in prison before
trial, and who surrendered on the day of trial. The
house would be put in a curious and painful position if,
after a resolution of expulsion, the party came back for
trial, and substantiated his innocence. He therefore
thought the present proceeding was premature, and, at
all events, that a decision would be premature, unless
they had the documents before them. He therefore
begged leave to move that the documents referring to
the case be printed, and that the debate be adjourned.
Mr. J. D. FITZGERALD wished, before proceeding
further with the debate, to show the house the exact
evidence which they had before them. He protested
against the principle that the house should act on state-
ments merely because they were said to he notorious.
They had evidence of the fact that on the 4th of the pre-
sent month of July, informations had been sworn against
.James Sadleir, not on a charge of felony, but on a charge
of misdemeanour, which charged him with conspiring
with his brother, John Sadleir, to cheat the public b 7 a
false representation as to the rate of the Tipperary Bank,
and representing that it was solvent in order to induce
others to become shareholders. They had also this evi-
dence, that on the same 4th of July a warrant had been
issued for the apprehension of Jas. Sadleir—that on the
18th of July, being the first day of the assizes, the grand
jury found a true bill of indictment, and that upon that
bill being found by the grand jury, a bench warrant was
issued for his apprehension on Saturday last. That was
all they had before them in the shape of evidence. There
had been many charges and accusations which might or
might not be true ; but of evidence there was nothing be-
yond what he had stated. He would next point out the
course which the legal proceedings would take. Mr. Jas.
Sadleir not being amenable to justice, not being arrested
under the warrant, and not having appeared to answer
the charge against him in the ordinary course of things,
proceedings of outlawry would be taken. The law did
not consider even a judgment of outlawry tantamount to
an admission of crime; but if that step was arrived at
the house would have something on which it might act,
and if it thought fit expel Mr. Sadleir. He would now
allude to another matter :—On Monday last the house
made an order that James Sadleir should attend in his
place on that day. They had not yet before them what
took place in pursuance of that order ; but he (Nit-. Fitz
gerald) had seen the messenger of the house, who in-
formed him that he proceeded to Ireland with all expedi-
tion, and on Tuesday served the order at Sadleir's residence
in the county of Tipperary, and then next served it in Dub-
lin at a house where he was stated to have resided, and on
the solicitors who had acted for him in the proceedings
connected with the Tipperary Bank. He (Mr. Fitzge•
raid) made this preliminary statement to enable the
house to form its judgment. He was not about to say
that it was his intention to resist the motion, nor that
such was the intention of the Government. Let them
see if the motion would be justified by the precedents
which had been cited. The first of these precedents was
that established by Robinson's case. Now, in that case
there had been a select committee to inquire into the
charge, and the member had been expelled, not for
fraud, but for contempt of the house in not having obeyed
en order that he should attend in his place. Then there
was the case of Walsh in the year 181?. It appeared that
Walsh had been found guilty of fraud by a jury, al
though the judges afterwards decided that the fraud was
not a felony. The house had however resolved that Walsh
should be expelled on the ground that he had been
guilty of the fraud, and that was undoubtedly a very
proper decision, for it was the duty of the house not to
allow any man to continue a member who had
been convicted of a fraudulent transaction. In the
case of Mr. Hunt a commission was appointed, who
ma le a report, in which he was charged with having mis-
appropriated 83,000/. He had absented himself as in the
present case, and on the 4th of April a member of the
house brought the subject forward ; but on representa-
tion from the Speaker that the notice had been too short
he withdrew the notion' and it came again before the
house on the 23d May, 1810. By that time Mr. Hunt
bad fled, notwithstanding that the order of the house to
appear had been served upon him. In his reply he ad-
mitted the charges to a certain extent, but denied
that the offence was so great as alleged. The question
came formally before the house on that occasion, and
the member was expelled. That was the only precedent
be could find, on which, without any inquiry, either
in the house or in a court of law, a resolution to expel
a member had been passed, and then it must be re-
collected that it was upon his own admission of guilt.
There were many other cases, but be would, not take
up the time of the hOuse by referring to them. He
had gone through the records in the Irish Parlia-
ment for the last century, and in no case had he found
that the members charged with misconduct had been ex-
pelled without previous inquiry. lie hoped, therefore,
that the advice given by Mr. Grenville in Wilkes's case
would be followed. Tne conduct of Mr. James Sadleir
was not impugned before the 4th of July. At all events,
that was the earliest period with respect to which the
house could take cognisance of his conduct ; and if it
were advisable to institute any inquiry, in his opinion it
would be better to postpone it until after he bad been
called upon to appear to answer a criminal charge—then,
if he did not appear, he would be outlawed. In conclu-
sion, the right bun. and learned gentleman hoped that no
attempt would be made to give a political turn to the
case, observing that his only object was to advance 440
purity and dignity of that house, which could not eO3
1, secured unless it had a due regard to justice.
Mr. S. FITZGERALD agreed that this was .a matter
with which the holm could not act with too KauolicAutio

but did not think that the learned Attorney-General had
stated to the house what the real facts of the case were.
Mr. Jame,: Sedleir's connection with the Tipperary
Joint Stock Bank had been the subject of inquiry in
the highest court in Ireland, and the judge of that court
had found that a letter had been written by the late Mr.
Sadleir to his brother, pointir.g out by what means one
of the most unparalleled frauds could be carried out.
They had it before them that that letter had been found
in the possession of Mr. James Sadleir, and also that the
directions contained in the letter had been fully carried
out by him.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL for IRELAND—
Oh, no 1
Mr. S. FITZGERALD—At all events they bad the
fact that, in obedience to the directions contained in
tbat letter, Mr. James Sadleir put his name to a fraudu-
lent statement in respect to the position of the bank,
and also that a fraud of so gigantic a nature had been
perpetrated that the whole of the English shareholders,
who in consequence of that fraudulent statement had
invested money in the bank, were released from their
liabilities. Those were the facts which had been laid on
the table of the house in the documents which were pro-
duced ; and he must say he was strongly of opinion that
they ought to take some steps to secure the honour and
reputation of the house. It must be recollected that it
would be impossible that any trial could take place be-
fore the Lent assizes, and therefore until the month of
March next Mr. James Sadleir tvould occupy the honour.
able position of a member of Parliament. He wished to
know whether any proceedings of outlawry could be
taken before that time? Although it was very true that
until a trial and conviction had taken place the house
could not be put into formal possession of the facts of
this case, yet he thought that no reasonable man could
doubt—after what had been stated by a most upright
judge, who had fully investigated the facts of the case—
that a great fraud had been committed by Mr. Sadleir.
His hon. friend opposite (Mr. Wortley) had moved as
an amendment to the motion made by the hon. and
learned gentleman the member for Sheffield that the
papers should be printed. The effect of that would be
to get rid of the motion altogether. The papers were
very short, and hon. members had been placed in full
possession of the facts of the case, therefore he thought
there was no excuse for not coming to a decision upon
the main question.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL was most anxious to
echo the advice given by his right hon. and learned
friend the Attorney-General for Ireland, that they ought
to proceed with the utmost deliberation in this case. He
believed that his hon. and learned friend the member for
Sheffield was animated with no other desire than to up.
hold the dignity and the honour of that house. But it
must be remembered that they were now exercising a
judicial function; they must take care, therefore, that
they did not act with precipitancy. The house must
thoroughly understand that if they adopted the motion
of his learned friend they would establish a prece-
dent ; for there certainly had never yet been a case in
which the house had expelled an individual member,
since law and justice had prevailed, except upon previous
conviction or inquiry, where the accused had an oppor-
tunity of vindicating himself. As far as he (the Attor-
ney General) understood, Mr. Sadleir was not a party
to the proceedings before the Master of the Rolls, neither
had be had any opportunity of explaining or refuting
the charges which had been brought against him. He
(the Attorney General) did not pretend to assert that a
conviction was necessary to justify a proceeding of this
nature ; but, in his opinion, there ought to be some pre-
liminary inquiry by the house into the facts of the case.
It must be remembered that the judgment of the Master
of the Rolls had been appealed from, and even if it bad
not, that judgment was not formally before the house.
He could not understand why it was necessary that they
should act hastily in this matter. It was quite clear that
within a fe A, days Parliament would be prorogued.
The house therefore could not be offended by the pre-
sence of Mr. Sadleir, neither could his constituents re-
ceive any injury, because in the interval between the
prorogation and the meeting of Parliament they would
have no need of his services. In the meantime Mr.
Sadleir would be required to surrender and take Isis
trial. Upon that trial he would be either convicted or
acquitted. If he did not surrender the proceeding
of outlawry would take place, and it had been laid down
by the highest Parliamentary authorities that outlawry
upon a criminal proceeding would be sufficient to dis-
qualify any man from sitting in Parliament. By a post-
ponement, therefore, they would avoid the charge of pre-
cipitancy, and they would avoid creating a precedent
which might hereafter be converted into a political in-
strument. Taking all the circumstances, therefore, of the
case into consideration, he thought that the better course
of proceeding would be to postpone this motion until the
commencement of the next session.
Lord PALMERSTON thought that the circum-
stances of the present case had been so fully discussed
that the motion for printing the papers was unnecessary,
there being nothing in them of which the house had not
full cognisance already, and if carried the motion would
only involve further discussion. They were called upon
to protect the honour, parity, and dignity of the House
of Commons. No doubt, that was one of their most im-
portant duties ; but it must not be f)rgotten that one of
the greatest elements of purity was a strict adherence to
the principles of justice ; and, above all things, that they
should avoid ereating a precedent which might hereafter
operate injuriously. However clear in the opinion of
members the guilt of Mr. Sadleir might be, they ought
not to proceed to expel him until either a conviction had
taken place or an examination, 'through a committee or
otherwise, had been made. (Hear.)
Sir H. WILLOUGHBY considered that the notice
which bad been given of the present motion was too
short. On that single ground, therefore, he hoped the hon.
and learned gentleman would not press his motion.
Mr. HENLEY agreed with the noble lord opposite
that justice should be their first consideration, and even
supposing the case of Mr. Sadleir to be worse than they
imagined it, yet considering that the notice of this 'no-
tion was given on Monday, it would not be fair play to
proceed upon Thursday to expel a member who might
reasonably be supposed to be absent from other muses.
He was not the man to condemn a person unheard.
Mr. WORTLEY said he had no objection to with-
draw his amendment if the hon. and leaned gentleman
below hiss would withdraw his motion. (After a pause.)
The hon. and learned member for Sheffield makes no
sign. (A. laugh.) Under those circumstances he could
only withdraw his amendment on the understanding that
the noble lord would move the previous question.
Mr. ROEBUCK—Sir, I suppose there will be no fur-
ther discussion on this matter. It strikes me from the
statement of the right hon. and learnel gentleman the
Attorney-General for Ireland that soffie political consi-
derations are mixed up with this question. (Cries of No,
no.) I understood him so, and I think it a most unhappy
thing that we cannot touch anything in regard to Ireland
unless political feelings are imported into the discussion.
I have done the best I could to support the honour and
dignity of the house, and if I find the majority against
me, of course I cannot help it. You talk about the dan-
ger of precedent. No man has pointed out what that
danger is. What is this case? A man commits a crime
dishonourable in itself. He is found by the Master of the
Rolls guilty of a fraud of the most atrocious description,
and I ask, therefore, if such a man ought not to be ex-
pelled from the House of Commons ? To talk about dan-
ger, and to affect a squeamishness of this sort, appears to
me to be most inconsistent with the maintenance of the
honour and dignity of the house. Sir, we stand dis-
honoured by the association with a peccint member. I
have done what I could to free you from that associa-
tion, and the blame must therefore rest with those who
have prevented me.
Lord PALMERSTON said that he was actuated en-
tirely by the consideration of what was due to the hon-
our and dignity of the house, which at all events ought
to be influenced by the principles of justice.
Mr. MALINS said that under all the circumstances
of the case he should support the amendment, but only
upon the distinct understanding that the motion would
be brought for ward at the earliest possible period next
session.
Mr. NE WDEGATE said he had not the slightest doubt
in his own mind of the moral turpitude of Mr. Sadleir,
and, therefore, if the question went to a division he
should vote with the hon. and learned member for Shef-
field; but he recommended him not to divide the house,
because if he were in a minority it was quite clear that
the member for Tipperary would escape altogether.
The amendment was then withdrawn, and the previous
question having been put, was carried without a division.
Mr. ROEBUCK—Sir, may I be allowed to ask whe-
ther, if in the interval of time between now and the next
session of Parliament Mr. Sadleir applies for the Chiltern
Hundreds the application would be refused ?
Lord PALMERS MN—Most undoubtedly.
BISHOPS OF LONDON AND DURHAM RE-
TIREMENT BILL.
The house then went into committee upon this bill.
On clause 3, which provided that the sum of 4,500/.
a-year be granted to the Bishop of Durham during the
term of his natural life,
Mr. ROEBUCK moved that the sum be reduced to
3,000/., observing that by law the income of that right
rev. prelate was 8,000/. a-year, but that an arrangement
had been made by which he paid a certain sum of money
to another person to perform the duties of the office, which
considerably reduced his income. He therefore thought
that one-third of his income was a reasonable pension.
The difference in the income of a bishop living in the
country and, in town differed, because it was supposed
the latter had more duty to perform. That might be a
reasonable proposition applied to an acting, bishop, but
could have no reference at all to a retiring bishop.
Bishops belonged to a class who professed to consider
poverty a virtue. He considered that 3,000/. a-year was
a sufficient income for this successor of the apostles, and
entertaining that opinion he should certainly divide the
committee upon the question.
Lord PALMERSTON said the bishops had received
more than 8,0001. alear. The bill went upon the principle
of a retiring allowance proportioned to the amount of the
income of the bishops and the sum to be surrendered
to the common fund. Giving the successor the 8,000/.,
and the retiring allowance of 4.500/. to the present
bishop, there would be a gain to the common fund.
Lord R. CECIL said it seemed to be implied that if
the bishop did not get 4,500/., he would retain the
whole 16,000/. But he hoped the bishop bad not so
elephantine a hide—(hear, hear)—and would not stick
so closely to the revenue f his bishopric wnile unable to
perform its duties. (Hear, hear.) he fact was", that
8,000/ a-year was the sum fixed by law, and the bishop
bad na tnaged by an ingenious contriv ince to
get 16000 ,
and now claimed a retiring allowance on that basis.
,/
(Hear, hear„)
Sir G. GREY defended the bishop, and declared that
it was net by any "ingenious contrivance," but by a
legal arrangement, which he (Sir G. Grey) achnitted to
have been a bad` one. (Hear, hear.) Being then indawfisl
possession of the larger income he was entitled to a re-

PARISHES OF ST. ANDREW EY THE WABDRODI AND

united parishes presented the Rev. Michael Biggs with
a purse of 50/. on Monday last, on his resignation of
the Sunday afternoon lectureship, which he had held
for nine years.
THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY.—A well exe-
cute(' and appropriate medal has been struck to com•
memorate the visit to Chelmsford of the Royal Agricul-
tural Society. It is, we believe, the first medal ever
issued upon such an occasion, and is, from the taste
displayed in its execution, well calculated to form a me-
morial of it. The obverse is from a design by Harrison
Weir, and is executed by Messrs. Pinekes, medalists to
the Crystal Palace, and the prominent object is a fine
specimen of one of the many beautiful bulls exhibited at
Chelmsford, ILI the distance are horses and sheep, and
the plough is also introduced. The reverse of the medal
represents the County-hall, Chelmsford. We notice the
medal, not only because it is creditable as a work of
art, but also to give an opportunity to those interested
in agriculture to preserve a souvenir of this very success.
