INDIA.

The Duke of ARGYLL laid on the table certain papers
which had already been prcsontecl to the other house relat-
ing to India.
DEBTOR AND CAE.DITOR.

Lord BROUGHAM said, in consequence of a standing
order of the. house preventing a bill being read a second
time after the 27th of July, he had to move a suspension
of that order, to enable their lordships to give a second
reading to - the bill he then held in his hand for
the purpose of correcting and amending the act of 1848,
which did 'not apply to the case of persons then in actual
confinement for debt.
The bill was read a second time.
NEW ZEALAND.

Lord LYT TELT ON presented a petition from almost all
the persons resident in New Zealand now in this country
against the New Zealand Bill, which stood for a third read-
ing that evening.

MILITIA BILL.
Otito motion of Earl DE GREY, this bill passed through
Committee. , -
METROPOLITAN POLICE FORCE (DOCKYARDS)

BILL.
This bill passed through committee.
HERITABLE SECURITIES BILL.
This bill passed through committee.
TURNPIKE TRUSTS CONTINUANCE BILL.

This bill passed through committee.
MAYNOOTH COLLEGE BILL.

On the motion that this bill be committed,

Lord REDESDALE said, as the bill was drawn it en-
abled the trustees to apply the whole of the money voted
by Parliament for the support of the students, t 6
repairs of the college. He was sure that could not be the
intention of the promoters of the bill, and he thought some
alteration ought to be made to remedy such a defect.
The Duke of ARGYLL said the bill had the sanction of
the noblemen and gentlemen constituting the visiting body
to whom Parliament hid intrusted the affairs of the oollege.
Ike thought those authorities were well fitted to be trusted
with discretionary power.
After a few words from the Duke of LEINSTER and the
Earl of MAYO,

Lord REDESDALE said the object of the bill was to
enable the authorities to complete the unfinished college of
St. Patrick at Maynooth. He wanted to know how much
money it would take to complete those repairs.
The Duke of SOMERSET said the bill only empowered
the authorities to borrow a certain sum of money on the
security of the annual grant of £30,000, it did nothing else.
The house then went into committee.
Clause 1 was agreed to.
On clause 2 being read,
Viscount DUNGANNON objected to the largeness of
the sum to be expended in repairs, and if he was successful
in finding a seconder, he would move that clause 2 be
struck out of the bill.
Earl GRANVILLE defended the clause.

Viscount DUNGANNON was strongly of (Onion that it
was absolutely necessary to put down a certain sum to be ex-
pended in repairs of the College. If that was not done he
felt certain Parliament would be called upon at some time
or other for a further sum of money, to make good losses
that had been incurred through the expenditure upon re-
pairs. He should move that £15,000 be the sum to be ex-
pended upon the college, and no more. He objected
strongly to give the authorities indefinite power to raise
money. _ _

After a short conversation, Viscount DUNGANNON with-
drew his amendment, and the bill passed through com-
mittee.

Upon the bringing up of the report Lord REDESDALE
moved an amendment, which was agreed to, and the report
was received.
