their admission. If the bill passed, no doubt a resolu- I From the Lon,
tiers would be proposed in that house, and carried by
acolamation—(hear, hear)—for seating the Jew, when
they would see a man at the table of that house
taking an oath contrary to the principles of
the British Constitution. He ;moved the third read-
ing r f the bill this day three months.
Mr. HOPWOOD seconded the motion. If the bill
passed it would exclude the Jew from Parliament.
It was very contradictory, for although by the first
c'ause Jews were to be admitted, by the second
c'ause they would be excluded ; because it allowed the
omission of the word, on the true faith of a Christian,
in ell cases except in that of members of Parliament.
He suggested the best course to be pursued was the with-
drawal of the bill—(hear, bear, and laughter)—to make
it a little intelligible, or if not to recommit it, in order
to allow the c'ause referred to t be altered. (Hear.)
Mr. ROEBUCK said that Dogberry, in a burst
of virtuous indignation, asked to be written down
an ass (laughter) but the House of Lords,
Dogberry, not wishing to find a friend to do so,
had done it themselves. (Hear, and laughter.) A
more remarkable proceeding had never occurred in
Parliament, than in reference to this subject. (Hear,
hear) The House of Lords had declared that cer-
tain men were morally unfit to sit in Parliament, and at
the same time they had sent down a bill by which they
were to be admitted. He accepted the bill ; but his
opinion concerning the wisdom of tl.e House of Lords bad
not received any increase by it. If the House of Lords
had thrown discredit on themselves the House of Com-
mons were not to blame. They ,ent to the House of
Lords a bill that would have done what was required
in n straightforward manner, but the IL use of Lords re-
fused to accept it, and had played such antics iu re•
ference to this subject, as had covered themselves with
d.rt. He congratulated the country on the folly
of the Lord, and should vote f,r the third reading
of the bill.
Mr. SPOONER said it bad been stated that he voted
last night in mistake with the ayes for going into com-
mita-e on this bill. He begged, however, t 3 state he,
voted deliberately. The form of the motion was ti e
Speaker's leaving the chair, and be voted for it, not
wishin gto obstruct public business by delay. When
he changed his opinion be would openly state it. (Hear.)
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE characterised this bill as his
resolution wrapped up in an act of Parliament. (Hear.)
This bill was no compromise. The House of Commons
bad made no compromise, but the House of Lords had
made a concession. This bill would awl ser the purpose
the House of Commons had in view. (Hear, hear.)
He would rather the House of Lords had made that
concession with a little more grace than they had
done. He referred to the conference between the com-
mittee of the House of Commons and the House cf
Lords, which Baron Rothchild attended, and he
believed none of the noble and right rev, lords who at-
tended it received any insult or irj cry from the pre-
sence of the hon. member for London. He contended
the increased majorities in that house sowed the people
were in favour of the admission cf the Jews to Parlia-
meat. (Hear, hoer.)
Mr. NEWDEGATE said the concession had been
wrung from the House of Lord, contrary to their judg-
ment, and in consequence the Hou,e of Commons felt
irritated. He believed this bill bad passed the House of
Levis contrary to L rd Derby's conviwians, and he
(An Newdeeate) considered he oueht to have appealed
to the country on the subject. He believed the inten•
tio r of the bill was to give time ler further raise-
tion—(bear, hear)—and he great'y regretted it had
not been taken advantage of. He charged the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer as being the author of the ire
fraction of tie Christian priecip a in that house. He
was himself of Jewish origin', aria throughout all hie
works of fiction he ext's 1 d the J.exi,•ll race.

SINGULAR CHARGE O 7 RAPE AGAINST
A TRADESMAN.

A. decently t ttired elderly man, who gave the
name of Wm. Wihnin, a harness-maker, residing
at 22, High-street, Camden-town, was placed at the
tor, before Mr. Corrio, at the Clerkenwell Police-
court, charged with committing a rape on the per-
son of Emma Andrews, a servant.
The prosecutrix, who gave her evidence in a very
careless manner, said she was now residing with her
mother at 23, Little King-street North, Camden-
town. She was 14 yeas of age, and had been in
the service of the defendant until last night,
when she was discharged ty her mistress. On
the day before, the defendant said, " Never mind
what your mistress says, shs is rather hasty." She
said s!ie was aware she was, and took no further
ne.tice. Yesterday morning, about half-past five
o'clock, when she awoke, she found the prisoner in
' her bel. She pushed him, but did not call out.
Having gone into details, which proved the offence,
she concluded by saying that she told her mother
last night.
Mr. J. Smellie, of 52. Euston-road, surgeon, said
he bad examined the girl, and although connexion
had taken place within 24 hours, yet no violence
was apparent. Mr. Smellie having given some fur-
ther evidence,
The prisoner denied the charge, but said he could
rot deny that ho was in bed with the girl, and had
b:Tn so on several occasions. He did the same
thing before in the back kitchen on the Thursday
before.
Mr. Corrie asked the girl if that was true?
The complainant said it was not. The prisoner
put his hands under her clothes, but she did not
tell her mistress.
Mr. Conies said there cool" be no doubt that the
prisoner was a dirty, beastly man for I,ehaviug in
the manner ho had. From what be could ascextain
from the surgeon's evidence it was not the first
thing of the sort the girl had been corrupted with ;
and although the priwner had done wrong, still he
could not say a rape had been committed, as the
girl had said nothing about the matter, had bet
called out, and did not :crate% his fees.
The prisoner was then discharged.
