The Consett District Water, and the London, Brighton,
and South-Coast Railway (Amendment) Bills were read a
third time and passed.
DOCK YARD LABOURERS.
Viscount DUNGANNON gave notice that on the 22d
of June he should ask whether there was any truth in the
report that on a recent occasion a number of dockyard la-
bourers presented themselves at the Thames Police-court,
representing they could get better wages at Cherbourg
than they could in this country, and therefore asking for
passports to Franco with a view of obtaining employment
there.

MASTER AND OPERATIVES BILL.
This bill was read a first time.
LIGHT WEIGHT RACING BILL.
Earl DERBY presented a petition from the Jockey
Club disapproving of this bill. He would reserve to him-
self his objections to the bill, until he had heard on what
grounds the noble lord introduced the measure.
Lord REDESDALE then moved that the bill be read a
second time. Having referred to the petition presented ba
the noble earl, he said he should like to know whether the
objection of the jockey club was to the principle of the bill or
to the minimum ho had fixed, viz., 6 stone. He had waited
for a long time to ascertain whether the jockey club would
take the subject up with a view of effecting some improve-
ment in the system, but that not having been done ho
felt it his duty to pro ceed with this bill. Its principle
was to raise the average weights carried by race horses at
the present time, and to prevent the gambling incidental to
what were known as light weight handicaps. Its system
was greatly on the increase, and ought to be immediately
put,, a stop to. To illustrate this, he referred to
the race for the Chester cup. Twenty-five horses
started for this race, of which only five carried more
than seven stone. The highest weight carried was nine
stone. Eight horses carried six tone, and the rest
carried very light weights indeed, Many of their
lordships familiar with horse-racing would see the evil of
this, and he thought they would agree that some legis-
lative enactment was really necessary. Ho had received
numerous letters expressing hopes that his bill would pass,
and amongst these memorialists a number of trainers, who
pointed out the dangers of the present system, many boys
being put upon horses, by which their lives were
endangered. •He could not think that it was thought
desirable that such a system should longer exist,
and he only asked their lordships for ono moment
to reflect upon the cruelty and danger of putting a mere
child who, with bridle and saddle, weighed but 4st. 41b. on
a powerful horse, what contiol could such a person have
over such an animal. Another objection to the employment
of boys, was the bad influences they were subjected to. The
next point to which he would direct the attention of the
house to was that the more the light weight handicap
system came into practice there was a sensible deterioration
in the breed of racehorses, and, added to this, the gambling
that was permitted, he might really sa.) encouraged, by the
legislature, on the ground that racing improved the breed
of horses. He could not agree with such opinions; on the con-
trary, he thought that which tended to create gambling was
bad, and certainly could not be deemed worthy of support
The jockey club could have dealt with the subject if they
choose, but as they had not done so he thought their lord-
ships would be of opinion that something ought to be done,
but that something must be done by legislation. The bill
had been nearly five months before the house, and as there
had been meeting after meeting of the jockey club and no
notice whatever had been taken of it he was justified in
proceeding with it, especially as it was approved of by
such eminent trainers as John Scott, Rogers, Sly, Bartho-
lomew, Taylor, Boy de, and others.
The Duke of BEAUFORT opposed the bill. Ho said
it was nearly the unanimous opinion of the Jockey Club
that the bill would act injuriously towards a great number
of people, and do no good to racing.
The Earl of WINCHELSEA rose, and was
(LEFT SPEAKING.)

ANNUITY TAX ABOLITION (EDINBURGH)
BILL.
On the motion for going into committee on this bill,
The LORD ADVOCATE suggested that five other
Scotch bills on the paper should be referred to the same
committee, who should report to the house at six o'clock.
Mr. STIRLING wished to know when the learned Lord-
Advocate intended to proceed with the Titles to 'Land
(Scotland) Act, and whether he would give a week's notice
before proceeding with it ?
The LORD-ADVOCATE said he could not give any
such notice as that required by the hon. member, and he
p.-.mooed with the bills as soon as possible.
Mr. HADFIELD objected to the complaints which had
been made in some places in reference to English n.onibers
taking a part in the discussion of Scotch bills. (" No, no,"
from the Scotch members.) With respect to the bill, peti •
tions against the Annuity-Tax Bill had been signed by
no less than 15,000 or 16,000 inhabitants of Edinburgh,
and he considered the measure one of the worst that had
ever been introduced on the subject. He objected to the
bill that it partook of a political character, as well as being
oppressive to the religious convictions of a large number.
He was much surprised that the 'hon. member, and other
hon. members, should have supported it in the face of such
petitions as those to which he adverted. He contended
that the effect of the bill would be to create apathy and
indifference in regard to religion in Edinburgh.
The motion was then agreed to, and tile house went into
committee on the bill.
Clause 1 was agreed to, with some amendments.
On clause 5,
Mr. BLACKBURN proposed an amendment, vesting
the property of the local churches in Edinburgh as well as
their administration.
Mr. BLACK strongly objected to the amendment, on
the ground that it would deprive the inhabitants of pro •
perty which they themselves acquired.
The LORD ADVOCATE also opposed the amendment.
Mr. MURE considered it absurd to suppose that the
commission in their management would deteriorate the
value of property.
The house then divided, and the numbers were—
For the amendment
Against it
Majority
The clause was agreed to. •
On clause 6, an amendment wasiproposed, the object of
which was to have one. tenth of the sittings reserved as free
I sittings.

-38

After a short discussion, the amendment was agreed to.

Alterations for the purpose of securing the rights of the
Town Council in reference to their seats were also agreed

On clause 8,
Mr. BLACKURN moved an amendment to the effec
that the sum proposed by the bill to be pa id to clergymen
should be raised from £4,200 to £5,000 a-year.-
The LORD. ADVOCATE said that the amendment
went so deeply to the root of the principle of the bill that he
could not assent to it.. It was originally proposed to make
an allowance annually for thirteen ministers
when it was to terminate • The Town Council, for 15 years,
however,
preferred the, imposition of a permanent
allowance, and it
was in conformity with this view that the of £4 200
sum ,
was inserted in the bill.
Mr. MACKIE thought the proposed
increase was too
large, but that if the hon. member had asked for the allow-
ance to be raised to £1,500, he thought his proposition
was entitled to approval.
Mr. BLACK entertained a different opinion,
and thought
the allowance should be reduced to £4,000. If the amend-
ment were passed he certainly would take the sense of the
house as to the reduction which he proposed.
After some discus.-ion,
Mr. BLACKBURN said he did not consider that £4,500
a year would be adequate to meet the expenses, including
£3OO a year for collection. Ho would not, however, press
his amendment in its original form, but would agree to the
substitution of the £1,500 a year.
31r. HADFIELD said that the sum of £6OO a-year was
considerably more than the clergymen of the Church of
England received on an average, and he strongly objected
to a sum of £3OO. There were 25,000 churches in England
which did not cost the church estate a, farthing, and he
roof of the luke- •
thought it was a p mute feeling that pre-
vailed towards the Established Church In Scotland that no
person could be found to collect the tax without payment.
The houss then divided on the amendment as altered,
and the numbers were—
For the amendment ............ 68
Against it ............................ 89
Majority .............. .......... —3l
The amendment was accordingly lost, and the clause
was agreed to.
On clause 10,
Mr. MURE moved the following amendment :—To
ada " And provided further that the tenants or occupiers
of any property liable in payment of the increased police
assessment shall be entitled, and they are hereby autho-
rised, in making payment of the rent of the said property,
to retain from such rent the amount of such increased
assessment, except in the case wh3re the said property
shall, prior to the passing f
his act, hays been let for a
term of years, in which case the said increased assess-
ment shall be borne by
the occupier till the expiry
of the period for which- the said property was let."
.
The hon. and learned member stated that the object of his
amendment was to throw the burden of such assessment
on the proprietor as a more equitable arrangement. A
proprietbr who purchased his property subject to a portion
of this tax could m future not complain.
Mr. BLACK opposed the amendment, which he thought
would be most unjust to the proprietor.
After some discussion the house divided, and the num-
bers were—
For the amendment 53
Against it
Majority
The clause was then agreed to.
On clause 11,
The LORD ADVOCATE moved to add ,4 Provided
that nothing in this act contained shall authorise the com-
missioners, or any other creditor in any of the said annui-
ties, to interfere in any way with the administration, disposal,
or control of the property, funds, revenues, or income by
this act assigned or disponed in security of the said annuities
so long as the same shall be regularly paid ; but the rights
in security hereby constituted shall only become operative
and available in the event of failure in the payment of the
said annuities."
The amendment was not pressed and the clause was ,
agreed to.
Some other clauses were agreed to, and the chairman was
ordered to report progess.
The house then suspended the sitting, but resumed at sia
o'clock and was
