dividual judge. The salary of the judges was an important
portion of the bill, and he (the Lord Chancellor) did not
think that any objection would be taken to it when the
position which those learned gentlemen had to main-
tain was taken into consideration. There would also
be the fees attaching to the position of the Dean of Arches
After having introduced these remarks relative to the bill,
the noble lord moved the second reading.
Lord CRANWORTII stated that he could not do other-
wise than oppose the bill. lie thought already that there
was quite a sufficient amount of judicial appointments
to carry out the functions which they were expected to
perform, and that the increased. number provided for by
this bill would be superfluous. Ile then entered into the
whole question of the proceedings in the Court of
Admiralty.

HOUSE OF • COMAIONS —THIS EVENING.
The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock-.
ROYAL COMMISSION.
The SPEAKER attended at the bar of the House of
Peers to hear the Riyal assent given to the Habeas Corpus
Suspension (Ireland) Act.
THE .REFoan BILL-WITHDRAWAL OF
T GOVERNMEN r REsoL Q ,lONS.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, said he
leenied it would b.: for the convenience of the house if lie
,00k the earliest opportunity of stating the course the Go-
vernment intended to pursue. The great object the G -
veranient had in view was to secure for the propositions
of her Majesty's Government a fair and candid reception.
It was impossible to conceal from himself the effect of the
observations of the hon. member for the Tower Hamlets
and other hon. members some nights ago, and more espe-
cially the remarks of the right hon. gentleman opposite,
(Mr. Gladstone), that there would be a moral under-
standing that any bill that the Government might
introduce would receive a frank arid candid consideration,
and that the second reading of the bill would meet with
no opposition. (Cries of " Oh, oh.") He deemed it right,
after a consideration of all that had been said, to state that
the Government did notproposetoask the house to proceed
with the consideration of the resolutions, but to apply
themselves at once to the introduction of a bill with as I
little delay as•possible. (Hear, hear, and "Oh, oh.") It
was impossible that there should not be some delay,
because a Reform Bill was not like a road bill.
(Laughter.) He hoped in about a week from
that time—ho would not take upon himself at that moment
to state the exact day—but he would say that by Thursday
week at the latest he should introduce a bill fur the reform
of that house. (Hear hear, and cheers.)
Mr. GLADSTONE said ho wished to follow the state-
ment of the right hon. gentleman with a few remarks.
The right hon. gentleman had not now stated fully the
intentions of the Government, and, previous to his state-
ment, he had placed a motion in the hands of the clerk of
the house which he meant to move by way of amendment.
It was to the effect that it was the opinion of the
house that the further discussion of the motion by
resolutions would only tend to create delay, and that
any plan that the Government had on the question
of Reform be submitted to the house in a definite form.
(Hear, hear, and cheers.) It was impossible there should
not be some delay that was inherent from such a change
of proceeding, but the right hon. gentleman was not liable
for that blame. Delay was necessary for the consideration
of the various details of such a measure; but what he
hoped was, that there would not be a longer delay than
was absolutely necessary. (Hear, hear, and cheers.)
With respect to the other topics touched upon by the
right hon. gentleman that there was something like
an engagement existing in that house that there should be
no opposition offered to any bill her Majesty's Govern-
ment might introduce —(hear, hear)—he felt it right, that
no misapprehension might exist, to state that he
could not consent to anything that appeared to limit
the discretion of any hon. member. (Hear, hear.) It was
to certain parts of the bill that some observations had
been made, but with respect to the bill itself it was
right that every member should reserve his discre-
tion entire and unfettered, and to state their opinions
unreservedly upon any bill that might bo brought
before them. (Hear, and cheers,; He could only express
his great desire that hon. members on his side of
the house would find the bill which was to be sub-
mitted by her Majesty's Government such as to
enable them at once to give their ready assent to it,
to expedite its passing its earlier stages, and then
fair to join issue on any point that members on his side
of the house might unfortunately find themselves com-
pelled to differ from the propositions of the Government
Committee would certainly be the place where the nume-
rous amendments and proposals could most properly be
discussed, but with respect to the earlier stages of the bill
he felt it better that all right to call iu question the provi-
sions of the bill, and ho should only be glad if those stages
were got over, and all those difficulties brought to issue in
committee. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. BRIGHT said as the right hon. gentleman the
Chancellor of the Exchequer seemed to be iu the mood fur
receiving advice from members of his (Mr. Bright's) side
of the house, perhaps ho would allow him to give him the
stone advice that ho had given to Earl Russell ; and that
was to introduce his Franchise Bill by itself. (Hear, hear,
and cheers.) If he did that he (Mr. Bright) would
promise that he would not read to him any portions of the
speech of the noble lord the member for King's Lynn.
(Loud laughter.) It was wanted to remove the grievance
of the excluded working classes. (Cheers.) That was the
chief and material point, and every day it was left untouched
it became charged with evil to all parties. (Hear, hear,
and cheers.) It was the universal feeling that the measure
proposed by the Government was very incomplete and
very unsatisfactory, it was as bad as the one of last
year, if not worse; and nothing useful could be
derived from delaying the great question until the
distribution plan was settled. He thought the wise and
prudent course was to take the Franchise Bill first and then
deal with others. (Hear, hear) It would afford them a better
leverage to deal with the little boroughs; for himself he
would not Object to leave that until after a general election.
(Hear, hear.) They ought to settle the question of the
franchise first, and after that they could apply themselves
with reference to the distribution of seats. To take it
into the question of the franchise would only be clogging
the bill. (Hear, hear.) It was not a statesmanlike
like way of dealing with tho question, and ho hoped they
would abandon it for the present, and apply themselves
to the one great question of the franchise. (Hear, hear,
and cheers.)
Lord JOHN MANNERS said he should like to know
what Earl Russell thought of the advice of the hon. gentle-
man. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) At the proper time it
would be shown that the distribution of seats was a pro-
per part of the measure, mind if her Majesty's Government
acted on the advice of the hon. gentleman, it did not ap-
pear to him that the present Government would derive no
more good from it than the. Government of Earl Russell
had done. (Laughter.)
The motion for the adjournment of the house, which
had been moved by Mr. GLADS.agNE, was then withdrawn.
OFFICES OF PROFITS.
Sir S. NORTLICOTE moved fora return showing the
total number of offices of profit which might have
been
held at one time by members of the House of Commons at
the commencement of the years 1827, 1847, and 1867 re-
spectively ; distinguishing those the acceptance of which
would have rendered it necessary for the members accept-
ing the same to vacate their seats.—The motion was
agreed to.
ARMY (INDIA AND THE COLONIES).
Major ANSON moved for a select committee to inquire
into the duties performed by the British Army in India
and the colonies; and also to inquire how far it might be
desirable to employ certain portions of her Majesty's Native
Indian Army iu our colonial and military dependencies.
Mr. O'REILLY moved the addition of the following
words to the motion, "Or to organise a force of Asiatic
troops for general service in suitable climates."
