THE ABOLITION OF PROPERTY QUALIFICA-
TION BILL.
Earl FORT 'ESCITE rose to move the second reading
of this bill, ntie operation cf which was strictly con-
fined to the other House of Parliament. It had been
passed by thset house with the co-opera ion of both sides
of the house, where it had also received the support of
several leading members of the Government. He was not
in a pesition t o sta' e that he should have the support of
the noble earl •opposite, but be had reason to think that
he would op pose the bill. The main object of
the measure was to abolish the property qualification
now required by persons elected to sit in the other
House of Parniament. Ile looked upon that qualifica-
tan invasion and interference with the rights of
theear elect _ire of the country, and one not now required.
(H hear.) well known that no property
qualification was necessary for a peer to enable him to
take his seat i.s that house,
and that circumstance he
looked on as or; a of the greatest arguments he could use
in favour of the bi!l he had then the honour cf
submitting to their lordships. The act making it
necessary for meinbtr of the House of Commons to
possess a ceri %in property qualification was passed

The noble 'l9ll then Proceeded to point out the
anomalies of the property qualification as it existed

at the present fame, and showed that it was now notori-
ously evaded, :and that, instead of being a safeguard, it
acted in quite, a contrary direction, and concluded by
moving the mound reading of the bill.
After a short pause,
The LORD CHANCELLOR proceeded to put the
question that the bill be 4oread a second time.
Earl GREY' said he hardly thought the house was
prepared

till withexpression of opinion on the part
of her Majesty's
"veratoent, especially as the noble
earl who had moved it had stated that although he

to the present bill, scr.
s-se confessed that such a cir-
cumstance greatly surprised him, and thought the
that they had no objection

opposing the bEll uponknow on what grounds this con-
its merits, because he thought
its statute bock a law which they had no power of
enforcing, but at the same time he was compelled to

were likely to change moat materially the character
of the conetituttion. In Point of fact, the bill was
part of a general measure of Parliamentary reform,

powers of the State in the hande of the democracy.
