IMPERIALPARLIAMENT athlluded tobean arrangement between the Government an
sittingrs on the Opposition bench, but with the
details of which he was not conversant. Tho circumstance
of the case was that that he received a communicationfrom
Government announcing that no objection would be taken,
to the bill, provided it was not pressed further this fses,
sion. He was, therefore, surprised that hon. members
on
the Government bench should have risen up and opposed
the bill. He hoped that in future Goveinments would
their own minds better. (Hear, hear, and laughter) HO
was astonished to find the member for Birmingham,
the recognised and established bugbear of the country—
(laughter)—brought into connection with this bill. He
never knew of any such proposal as that contaiued
in the bill having been made by the right hon. member.
The bill did not interfere with the monies offered by mom,
hers of the Church, and he denied that it would hays
the effect of excommunicating any portion of tau,
community. Ho could not admit the figures of tho
right hon. gentleman the member for Oxfordshire, but
there was no doubt at all that the land of a farmer would
be assessed more heavly than the house of a resident in a
borough. The same argument, however, applied to tho
bill of the Solicitor-General. There was ono funda-
mental objection to both bills. There was a charge on
every tenant of land, and they both proposed to give
that charge as a present, if the person wished it. He was
not satisfied that because he had not met the objections of
every one he should withdraw the bill. The encourage-
ment he had received was iu his opinion ample. With
regard to the b"1 of the hon. member for Warwicksb.-7-o,
that proposal had already been considered by the house
and negatived.
At the close of the speech of the right hon. gentleman
the Opposition side of the house called for a division, and,
several members of the Government immediately rose and
left, amid a burst of ironical cheers.
Colonel TAYLOR explained that the Government Lad
stated their intention not to divide the house.
Tho SPEAKER then put the motion for the second
reading, which was carried without a single negative.
The Church Rates Abolition Bill, the Church, Hates
Commutation (No. 2) Bill, and the Church Rates Amend-
ment Bill were withdrawn. 4
The Attorneys and Solicitors (Ireland) Bill mid the Con-
solidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill wore road a third time
and passed.
