COUNTY FRANCHISE BILL.

Mr. L. KING postponed the second reading of the
County Franchise Bill from to-morrow until Thursday,
June the 10th.
BREACH OF PRIVILEGE—RELEASE OF MR.

W. WILKES.
On the motion of Mr. M. GIBSON, the order of the
day was read for the consideration of Mr. W. Wilkes 'e
petition, •
Mr. M. GIBSON moved Mr. Wilkes's discharge from
the custody of the Sergeant-at-Arms in the usual form,
and on payment of the fees.
Mr. CLIVE regretted the retractation bad not been so
ample as the charge made. He had been informed that
the learned counsel on both sides, engaged in reference
to the railway scheme under the consideration of the
committee, bad stated that his conduct, as chairman of
committee, was such at it was impossible for them to
form any opinion, up tot e last moment, how he would
vote, and they one and all declared that such a charge
as had been made against him was perfectly absurd.
After some remarks from Mr. ELLIOTT,
Mr. WALPOLE said there was a complete exonera-
tion of Mr. Give 'e conduct in the petition of Mr. Wilkes
now before the house. He thought the hon. member
might now rest satisfied that with the petition before
the house coupled with the statement he bad made rela.
five to the opinion of the learned counsel engaged in the
case, his conduct had been entirely exonerated in that
house, and would be so with the country. He though,
the authority and dignity of tha house, the character of
the hon. member, and the conduct of the petitioner in
making his retractation had put the house in a position
to allow Mr. Wilkes to be discharged in the ordinary
way. He only hoped the house would not have the
necessity of repeating such games, which could only
occur when persons made imputations they could not
sustain, and which ought never to be made. (Hear.)
The motion for Mr. Wilkes's discharge was then agreed
to.

MEDICAL PRACTITIONERS BILL.

Mr. COWPER moved the second _ reading of this

bill. The object of the bill was threefold, via., to ests...
Llish one uniform standard of education and qualification
—secondly, to establish a registry of all duly qualified
practitioners, and thirdly to abolish all local restrictions
and place all duly qualified practitioners upon
an equal tooting throughout the country. The
examination would be made by the existing medical
bodies ; but the new counc9, elected by the dif-
ferent examining bodies, to be created by the bill would
have the power of determining whether such an exami-
nation would be sufficient to justify the issue of a licence
to practice, or whether there should be a second exami-
nation before themselves. The bill in no way interfered
with the privileges of the College of Physicians.
Mr. BLACK opposed the bill on aceount of its com-
plicated nature. During the last three years five bills
had been introduced into the house, neither of which
provided for the wants of the people. The present legi -
lation that had taken place on the subject ought to be re-
pealed, and the members of the medical profession
allowed freedom of practice, and to make their way with
the public the same as the members of other profeseionr.
The motion for the second reading was then put, and
declared to be carried.

Mr. BLACK objected to the decision, as he had
said "no" to the second reading.
After soma remarks from Mr. WarzoLs and the
SPZAREa to the effect that the hon. gentleman did not
say " no" at the right time,
The motion for the second reading was declared to
be carried.
Mr. COWPER then moved the committal of the bill
on the Bth June.

Mr. BLACK moved its committal this day six months.
Mr. BRADY urged that a change was required, and
that the question of medical reform demanded the
most serious consideration of the house. The provisions
of the bill bad been discussed by all the medical
swieties in the country, and were approved of by them.
Mr. WALPOLE said the question of medical reform
bad been some time before the house, but they had been
unable to see their way clear as to the beat proposition
to be supported by them. The three bills before the
house contained some points worthy of adoption, and
some the house ought not to sanction. Legislation on
this subject was necessary, but the difficulties tbey had
to encounter were very great. The right hon. gentleman
referred to the anomalies that existed with reference to
the regulation of the medical profession. The principle
to be established waft uniformly of practice throughout
the kingdom, and to obtain that a register was
required, so as to indicate to the public who
were properly qualified prac itioners, and the whole
supervised by a council, in which the public and the
profession would have confidence. The right boo. gen•
tleman then examined the details of the three Lille,
puinting out bow they differed on these points, and sug-
gested that one of the three bills should be selected, and
the house so amend it as to secure the passing of a mea-
sure that would be advantageous to all. (Elem..)
Mr. lIEADLAM said the medical profession were
agreed as to the necessity of reciprocity of practice, a
high standard of education, and no doubt as to who
were legally qualified. If the house kept to these car-
dinal point., very little difficulty would arise in legiAa-
ting on the subject, as the chief difficulty now arose
from the conflicting schemes that were before the house.
He should vote for the bill going into committee.

Mr. T. DUNCOMBE considered the Government
ought to introduce a measure on the subject, and not
leave it to private men. If the Government wou'd
adopt that course he would withdraw his bill,
and he understood the noble lord the member for
Haddington (Lord Elcho) was willing to adopt a similar
course. Unless the Government took the subject in hand,
or the house passed a register bill, there would be no legis-
lation on it this session. The whole question with re-
gard to the colleges WM one of fees, and it was to that
their bodies were looking more than anything else. The
College of Apothecaries charged ten guineas for a diploma
to practise in Londpn. He could not blame the Govern-
ment for not taking the subject in hand, considering the
great difficulties they would have to contend with.
Lord ELCHO, after entering at great length into an
explanation of the part he had taken in endea-
vouring to procure medical reform, and what had bee❑
done with the various bills introduced in former ses-
sions for attaining that object, said he had no desire to
connect his name with medical reform, and he was
prepared to withdraw his bill and support that of his
right hon. friend (Mr. Cowper). which embodied the
principles of the bill he (Lord Elcho) had introduced.
He, however, warned the house against the private views
of the various existing medical corporations. If the
bill of the right hon. gentleman was not carried this
year, he suggested the Government should issue
a royal commission to look into the subject. Unless
that were done they would have to go over the subject
again next session in discussions on medical reform bills
without leading to any practical result.
Mr. LEFROY expressed his satisfaction at the gourse
the debate had taken, and he hoped the subject would
soon be settled.

Mr. GROGAN also expressed his satisfaction at the
probability of a speedy settlement of the subject.
Mr. CRAUFURD approved of the withdrawal of the
two other bills.

After some remarks from Mr. COWPER in reply, and
from Mr. EIADVIELD,
Mr. BLACK. withdrew his amendment, and the mo-
tion fer the committal of the bill on the Bth June wai
agreed to.

MEDICAL PROFESSION AND MEDICAL
CORPORATIONS BILL.
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE moved the second reading of
this bill.
Mr. WALPOLE thought it would be better not to
read the bill a second time. It would be better to have
one bill than two.
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE said the principle of the bill
appeared to be approved of, and as setae mischief
might occur to the favourable progress of the
other bill. his would then come in for further coneider,t-
tion.
Sir W. HEA.TLICOTE stugested the postponement
of the second reading of the bill.
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE then postponed the second
reading of his bill for three weeks.—
to.
MEDICAL PROFESSION BILL.
On the motion of Lord ELCHO, the second reading
of this bill was withdrawn.

PROPERTY QUALIFICATION BILL.
The adjourned debate on going into committee on tla•is.
Vll was resumed.
Mr. BENTINCK explained Lis reason for moving the
committal of this bill this day six months instead
of a similar motion on the second reading, from a 13:lief
that her Majesty's present Government, and the naern-
bers of the late Government would have opposed it, en
now dealt V; ith the measure on principle and not on ex-
diency. He considered a proper ty qualification essen-
tial to the con-truction of the house, but he hued hie
opposition to the measure because it should form part of
,A reform bill, and that the house ought not to be called
PPon to =xpress an opinion on a partial measure of till:
kind. If the present law was defective, it ought
to be amended, and not repealed. The evasios
of the law was no argument against the continuance of
a good principle. A qualification was necessary to
prevent men from coming into the house who had o her
duties to perform, and who would be open to corruption.
If the house repealed the property qualification it wool :
be necessary for them to abolish also freedom of arrest,
which was adopted to prevent trickery. And if they
did that they would make that house a refuge for bank-
rupts and disreputable characters. He complained 41
the absence of Lord Palmerston on this occasion, as well
as Sir George Grey, who, he (Mr. Bentinek) said, ought
to be in their place in the house and support the opinions
expressed three years ar, that the property qualifiea•
titan was essential to the preservation of the constitu-
tional character of the house. With reform bill im-
pending, it was not desirable to legislate on what must
form a part of such a measure. He wishedtoseesoroeh(,et
the anomalies of the Reform Bill of 1832 got rid of, and

called on the members of the Treasurybenches to suppo t
him, as in all probability they would have done, if they
had been in opposition. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. KER SEYMER Paid the practical working of
no qualification for Scotland had been to produce repre-
sentatives as respectable, wealthy, and talented as any
who represented England. His experience on election
committees led him to believe that " qualification" wag
a snare to hon. gentlemen who sought the honour of a
seat in this house, He should be sorry to see another
election under the present state of the law. He should
support the motion for going into committee.
Mr. H. DRUMMOND wished to know what ad-
vantage would be gained by the change proposed ? He
considered the abolition of property qualification should
form a portion of a comprehensive measure of reform,
and to be comprehensive it should touch the
House of Lords—(hear, hear)—by avoiding pauper
peers, and the abolition of voting by proxy.
(Hear, hear.) This measure was an attempt to
separate political power from wealth, which, if adopted,
would end in the universal destruction of property.
(Hear. hear.)
Sir G. C. LEWIS considered the real security for the
social condition of members of Parliament was to be found
in the ordeal they had to undergo for gaining the suffrage
of the house. The substantial qualification of members
would be wholly untouched by this measure. The re-
peal of the act would merely make a technical and for-
mal change in the law, and remove a gross scandal from
their legislation. He supported the measure, because it
would put an end to pitfalls for bon, members, which
was a disgrace to the house.

Mr. NEWDEGATE opposed the measure on the
ground that it should form part of a general measure of
reform. (" Divide.")
Mr. D. GRIFFITH supported the measure.
Ma. BNIGHTLEY opposed the measure. The Go
vernment did not oppose the bill, and as it was one
point of the Charter, he asked her Majesty's Government
if they were prepared to support the other points of the
charter also. Perhaps the learned Attorney-General
could answer the question if universal suffrage would
form part of the proposed Government Reform Bill.
(Hear, and laughter.) Allusion had been made to their
being no qualification for Scotland, but it had no more
to do with the question before the house than
if the honourable member for West Surrey,
or any other honourable member, walked into
the house with only his shirt on—(laughter)--and urged
in excuse for hie conduct that trowsers and coats were
not worn in Scotland. (Oh, and laughter, and Divide.)
Sir M. FARQUHAR opposed going into committee.
_ _ _ _

Mr. HENLEY considered this measure should form
a portion of a reform bill, and as such a measure must
be brought forward, he should vote against the bill,
being opposed to bit-by-bit legislation.
The house then divided. The numbers were—
For going into committee 222
Against it
Majority —ll3
The house then went into committee on the hill.
On Clause 1,
Mr. BENTINCK said the measure had received here-
tofore opposition from both sides of the house, and it was
only owing to the change that had taken place in parties
that the measure had been carried so far. He asked for
an explanation from hon. gentlemen who occupied front
seats on both sides of the house of the change in the opi-
nions on the measure, and asked them if they had
changed their opinion on principle or expediency
Mr. WALPOLE defended the course he had taken
in reference to this measure, and said he had acted on
principle. In 1852, when Lord J. Russell introduced his
measure of reform, the abolition of the property qualifica-
tion formed part of it, and after Mr. Suffield, then a mem-
ber of the house, introduced the smaller portion of reform
and Lord Derby's Government having assented to the
introduction of the greater measure of reform, he (Mr.
Walpole) considered it was not right to refuse the in-
troduction of that bill. (Hear, hear.) It, how-
ever, was not carried, and last year the hon. and learned
member for West Surrey took it up, when he (Mr. Wal-
pole) voted against its second reading, on the under-
standing at that time that Lord Palmerston wished it
postponed that he might introduce a general measure
of reform which would embrace the question
now before the house. He expressed no opinion
then on the measure, and he contended ho Ras

not open to the charge of change of opinion.
The basis ofErepresentation should be property,
but by getting rid of the property qualification they
would not meddle with that basis but abolish a nominal
sham it was desirable should be no longer maintained.
By the maintenance of this political sham they kept
men of great ability, like Mr. Southey, from obtaining
a seat in that house. (Hear.)
Col. NORTH said the question was now in the same
state as it was last year. (No, no.) Her Majes y's Go-
vernment had promised a reform bill. (Hear, hear.)

Mr. WALPOLE—No. We have it under consi-
deration.

Col. NORTH condemned the change of opinion that
often occurred on et change of seats in that house. He re-
ferred to what had lately transpired in a court of law,
where it was shown one of the body did not know where
to raise 401., and asked if a person so situated was
fit to represent any borough or county. He (Colonel
North) considered freedom of arrest a most disgraceful
privilege—(hear, bear)—and dishonourable to a body of
gentlemen, eepecial:y those to whom the interest,
honour, and welfare of the country were confided. (Hear.)
Lord J. RUSSELL said a property qualification was
an innovation of the ancient constitution of the house,
and was introduced by an act of Parliament in the reign
of Queen Anne. He hoped the right hon. gentleman the
Secretary of State would pursue a similar course in re-
ference to another measure of the hon. and learned men.
ber for West Surrey, that would come before the house
next weeki
Lord J. MANNERS denial that he bad changed his
views on this subject. He defended his vote of last
year on the ground that the measure was rejected on a
question of time. He contended this measure would
not interfere with the stability of our institutions. The
opposition to this measure was a mere fight about
shadows.

After some remarks from Mr. HUNT, who withdrew
his amendments on the bill, relative to the payment of
election expenses, and the abolition of the freedom of
arrest, on the ground of irregularity; and from Mr.
BENTINCK in explanation,
Clause 1, the only clause in the bill, was agreed to,
and the bill passed through committee, and was ordered
to be read a third time to-morrow.

PUBLIC GROUNDS AND PLAY GROUNDS.
Mr. SLANEY moved the second reading of this bill,
which permitted the setting apart by the authorities
ground for the recreation of the people in the respective
neighbourhoods.
no motion was agreed to.
MARRIAGE LAW AMENDMENT BILL

This bill passed through committee pro forma, for the
introduction of amendments, and was ordered to be re-
committed on Monday,next.
NISI PRIUS COURT (IRELAND).
The ATTORNEY GENERAL for IRELAND ob-
tained leave to introduce a bill to appoint a clerk ( f
nisi prius for the Consolidated Nisi Prius Court in Ire-
land.

The other orders were disposed of, and the house ad-
journed at 20 minutes to 6 o'clock.

COMMERCIAL FAILURE.

The failure was announced, yesterday afternoon
of the well-known East India and China firm of
Messrs. Rawson, Sons, and. Co. The event has
been oaused by the general depreciation in all kinds
of Eistern produce, and disappointment in the
receipt of remittances by the last mail. Their
transactions were very extensive, and they have
establishments at Calcutta, Singapore, Shanghai,
and Canton, as well,as at Liverpool. The direct
liabilities are stated at 700,0001., but a very large
proportion will be provided for, and the remainder
is represented by assets more than sufficient, but
which are principally with the firms in India and
China. The house has always occupied a high
position, and the general confidence entertained as
to the honourable manner in which it has been
conducted leads to a strong hope that the liquida-
tion will leave a balance for the partners. Annexed
is the circular issued :

" 62,_Moorgate-street, June 2.

" We are compelled, with deep pain, to announce to
you the necessity we have ari ived at this day of suspend-
ing our payments. We have every reason to believe
that we shall be able to meet all claims on us in full ;
but the temporary deficiency of funds, arising out of the
great fall in prices of produce, in connection with the
delay of adequate remittances from abroad, makes it our
duty, in the common interest of all persons having
claims on us, to adopt the step we have announced.
" We shall take the earliest opportunity of convening
a meeting of our creditors, and in the meantime we
have retained the assistance of Messrs. Coleman, Tur-
quand, Youngs, and Co., to prepare the necessary
statements.—We are, &c ,

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

ASCOT RA.CES.-WEDNEBDAY.

The " unfashionable, day," as usual, presented the
prettiest race of the week. The Hunt Cup brought out
28 competitors, and as the horses descended the hill from
the New Mile starting post the scene was extremely gay
and picturesque. The bookmakers however scarcely
enjoyed the race, for it resulted in the success of the
favourite, the only animal, with, perhaps, the exception
of Coroner, that had been supported with spirit in the
ring.

The meeting of Fitz Roland and Eclipse was the, most
interesting event of the day, and the style in which
Eclipse defeated the "Two Thousand victor" showed
that his Derby partisans had cogent reasons for backing
him for the great Surrey event.
The attendance was scarcely even up to a Wednes-
day's average, but the weather was delightfully fine,
and the absence of the crowd enabled the spectators to
enjoy the proceedings to the top of their bent.

The prospect of a great Cup-day is most cheering, and
although the Queen will not be present, it was rumoured
on the Heath that the Prince of Wales will occupy the
Royal Stand.
The sport was decided as under :
The Coronation Stakes of 100 sovs each, h ft ; for three-
yr old fillies, Bst 71b each ; certain penalties. Old

King William and Vrow were restive and repeatedly
broke away. The horses, however, were at length
hrought under proper command, and Mr. Hibburd aeizing
the right opportunity, despatched the 28 competitors
from the post incompact order. They rose above the hill
in a line, stretching right across the course, and de-
scended it like a charge of cavalry, the " two reds,"

Jacket, Cotswold, and Mitraille, running- in a body at
their heels. Soon after passing the road King William
and Hydromel disappeared from the front, and at the
distance Hesperithusa become second, Tricolor going
on with a slight lead, with Scribbler and Kestrel well
laid up. Half way in the distance Tricolor dropped
back "and Hesperithusa came out, Scribbler, lying se-
