IMPERIAL NiILIADIENT

HOUSE OF LORDS--LAST• EVENING.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the woolsack a
five o'clock.

PRIVATE BUSINESS.

The Barker Mill's Estates Bill was read a third time with
amendments.

THE LIS PENDENS BILL.

Lord ST. LEONARDS, with regard to tho Commons'
tmendments on this bill, made some observations which
were totally inaudible.
SALE OF LAND BY AUCTION BILL.

Lord ST. LEONARDS stated, with regard to this bill.
they had to cons:der the reasons given by the Commons
to their objections to the bill, and he might state that ho
considered that the bill was in its original form adapted to
meet all requireinents.
The LORD CHANCELLOR agreed with his noble
and learned friend, and should certainly for ono propose
that the Lords amendments should be taken upon those of
the Commons, as there were many important clauses
in the bill which wuld not be missed.
On a division it was found that the contents were 9,
and the non--contents 59 ; consequently, the Commons'
Amendments were agreed to.
COUNTY TREASURERS (IRELAND) BILL.

This bill was read a third time.
SALMON FISHERY (IRELAND) ACT AMENDMENT
BILL.

This bill was committed.
Their lordships then adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—YKSTERDAY.
The SPEAKER. took the chair at 2 o'clock.
REPRESENTATION OF THE PEOPLE BILL.

The house wont into committee on this bill.
Mr. ROEBUCK moved that the Chairman report pro-
gress with a view of inserting Sheffield amongst the large
towns to which it was proposed to give a third member.
A lengthened discussion ensued, which ultimately led to
the withdrawal of the motion, and the regular debate was
resumed on the proposal of Mr. Horsfall to give a third
member to Birmingham, Manchester, and Liverpool.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was
proposed to add Leeds to the list of boroughs returning
three members.
Mr. HADFIELD persisted in his desire to Save Shef-
field included.
The house then divided, when there appeared
For the amendment 122
Against it ............
—136
Majority
The amendment was accordingly rejected.
Mr. BERKELEY then moved that Bristol be added to
the list.
Mr. MONCK advised the withdrawal of the proposal,
as he had a motion on the paper which would effect that
object in the end.
A long discussion again ensued, when a division took
place on the question that Bristol be added to the list,
when there appeared—
For the amendment 135
Against it
Majority against --99
The proposal that Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool,
and Leeds each for the future send throe members to Par-
liament was then agreed to, and on the proposal that the
clause, as amended, stand part of the bill,
Sergeant GASELEE moved that certain words be added
to the clause, in order that each of the boroughs bo divided
into two wards, one to return two members, and the
other one.
Tho CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed
the amendment, and several members on the learned ser-
geant's side of the house suggested the withdrawal of the
amendment, but the learned sergeant refused to do so.
The proposal was then negatived without a division.
Mr. BRIGHT said he should like to know from what
source it was proposed to take the members which had been
given to the four large boroughs. lie believed it had al-
ready been proposed to give a member to Salford, but
now he had heard it was proposed to take that member
away, and, in fact, he believed it was the intention of the
Government to take four members from four of the smallest
boroughs it was proposed in the first instance to enfran-
chise. It was a shuffling of the cards and nothing more.
He believed it was an unfair course to adopt, and before
the clause was finally agreed to ho hoped the Chancellor
of the Exchequer would state exactly what he proposed to
do.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it
became necessary to find four members for the four large
towns, and therefore ho must find.them in the schedule of
boroughs it was proposed to enfranchise. It was in the
schedule of the bill, now on the table of the house, that
the four members must be found.
Mr. GLADSTONE said Salford was not in the schednle.
It had already been decided that Salford and Merthyr
Tydvil should return two members instead of ono, and a
resolute resistance would be made to prevent a recon-
sideration of that enactment.
Mr. AYRTON said he thought the time was fast ap-
proaching when the committee would have to ask itself
whether they intended to pass the bill at all. It
appeared to him that the fault would bo on his side
of the house. A number of seats had been given by the
bill for redistribution, and the Government had proposed
a plan which ho thought ought to be looked upon as a
whole. They had, however, taken one view of the matter
which it was now proposed to alter. Ho did not see
why the house should be overborne by Lancashire
(Hear, hear.) He thought the best thing they could do
would bo to go to the Government schedules, when they
could fully go into the question. If it was determined to
go on as thoy were going at present, he despaired of over
bringing the matter to a satisfactory conclusion.
Tho CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said ho
should be prepared on Thursday to state what modifica-
tion the Government proposed to make in the schedule.
He thought the suggestion of tho hon. member for the
Tower Hamlets was a very sagacious one, and ho hoped the
house would see tho nocessit3, of adopting it.
Mr. li. SEYMOUR hoped on the Thursday the Govern-
ment would son the necessity of adopting the grouping of
the boroughs as proposed by the hon. member for Wick,
(Oh, oh.)
The clause, as amended, was then ordered to stand part
of the bill.
Mr. NEATE then moved the following now clause, to
follow clause 17, viz.:—" Whore any corporation, lay or
eccosiastical, shall be entitled as owners in their own right
to lauds or tenements of freehold tenure in any
county, and such lands or tenements shall bo
let at rack - rent, and the rent recoverable
therefrom in any ono county shall be such as would give
to each member of such corporation, according to the
rules or statutes of such corporation, a sum of not loss
than twenty pounds as his annual share thereof, then
every member of such corporation shall be entitled to be
registered as a voter, and, when registered, to veto at the
election of a member or members to serve in Parliament
for such county."
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the
clause introduced an entirely new principle, and there-
fore ho hoped the house would hesitate before they adopted
it. As he thought it was unnecessary, he should oppose
the proposal to embody it in the bill.
Tho clause was then rejected.
Mr. RIBBER' then moved the following clause :
It shall not be lawful for any candidate, or any ono on his
behalf, at any election, dotery any money ou account of the
v to the poll, either to the
other person, or for any person to
voter
royhainnicsoolf ofor
to
antytny
receive from any candidate, or any one on his behalf, any
money on account of such conveyance ; and if any such
candidate, or any person on his behalf, shall pay, and any
such person shall receive, any money on account of the
conveyance of any voter to the poll, such payment shall
be deemed to be au illegal payment within the meaning of
" The Corrupt Practices Prevention Act, 1854."
The house was engaged discussing the clause up to
