RICHMOND WATER WORKS.
Captain AL SAGER brought up the Report of the Com-
mittee upon this Bill.
The Torquay Improvement Bill, and the Norwich and Swaff-
ham Road Bill, and several other private Bills, were advanced
a stage.
METROPOLIS WATER COMPANY.

Sir F. BURDETT moved the second reading of this Bill.
Mr. LEFEVRE presented a petition against it, from
the Governors of Hospitals and the owners of Breweries in
London and its neighbourhood.
Mr. WARBURTON did not rise to oppose the second
reading of this Bill, as the Company only proposed to do that
on a large scale which private individuals had often done before.
If the Bill proposed to give any exclusive privileges to this
Company, he should most certainly oppose the bringing up the
report.
Sir S. WHALLEY said the object of the Company was
to furnish a supply of pure soft Spring Water, which it was well
known was in great abundance about London, and then to
leave it to the Water Companies to receive their supplies from
the Company, if they so thought proper, at a rate to be fixed
by the Government Commissioners.
Mr. SHAW LEFEVRE moved as an amendment that
the Bill be read a second time this day six months.
Mr. BUCKINGHAM supported the Bill. He believed
that it was the only way of affording the people of the Metro-
polis a supply of pure Spring Water.
NEW MEMBER.
Mr. R. MORE O'FERR ALL, the newly elected Mem-
ber for Kildare, was here introduced, and took the oaths
and his seat. The Hon. Gentleman was cheered on coming
to the table.
METROPOLIS WATER COMPANY.
Mr. H. L. BULWER cordially supported the Bill, be-
cause he thought it would materially benefit the public at large.
Mr. BARCL AY opposed the second reading of the Bill,
on the ground that it proposed to confer a monopoly on a
Company to the prejudice of the interests of the people of this
metropolis, without tending in the least to improve the quality
of the water with which it was supplied.
Mr. HUME was opposed to monopoly of every description,
but nothing of that nature was contemplated by the present
Bill. The Company merely desired to make an experiment
for the improvement of the water supplied to the metropolis,
and in making it they prayed for the protection of the House
for a short period of time. If they failed in their trial, the
failure would injure none but the Company itself.
Mr. F. BUXTON opposed the second reading of the Bill,
the consequence of the passing of which would be, the de-
struction of all the manufactures of the metropolis, in which
water was required. If these parties engaged in the enter-
prize, it would inflict great ruin upon themselves, without pro-
ducing the slightest benefit to the public.
Colonel EVANS said the pecuniary interests of some Hon.
Members were involved, and therefore they opposed this Bill.
—( Hear, hear.) He could not blame them ; but he thought
the matter should be left to the impartial consideration of the
House, and therefore he hoped the Bill would be allowed to
go into Committee.—( Hear.)
Lord GRENVILLE SOMERSET opposed the Bill,
because he did not think the proposed Company would achieve
what they professed, nor did he believe it to be a bona fide
Company.
Dr. LUSHINGTON also opposed the Bill.
Mr. WILKES supported it, on the ground of the monopo-
lising spirit and practices of the existing companies.
Mr. M. PHILIPS opposed the Bill, because he consi-
dered it would be giving the Company the power of wronging
one party to benefit another, by giving them the power of
taking away the water from private wells, by sinking others
near them.
Mr. D. W. HARVEY rose amidst loud cries of " Di-
vide." He did not think that any Company would like to try
an experiment for the mere purpose of spending 5,0001. He
would support the second reading.
Mr. V. SMITH opposed the Bill, because it was giving a
monopoly of experiment, and preventing private persons
making any on their own property.—(Cries Of " Question,"
and " Divide.")
Sir F. BURDETT replied. It would be made out most
satisfactorily
.to the Committee, that there was no danger at
all to private interests, and that there was a most plentiful supply
of water for all. It was no monopoly at all—it did not inter-
fere with any one—not with the private individual, nor with
the existing Companies. The Company pledged themselves to
prove, by the most philosophical men, that such was the
case.
Mr. WARBURTON said that notwithstanding what he had
before stated he was so convinced by the arguments he had
heard, that he was now determined to oppose the second read-
ing of the Bill.
The Gallery was then cleared for a Division, when there
appeared—

DONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.

CARDIFF MARKET.

On the motion of Mr. TooKE, this Bill was read a third
time and passed.

CORK ELECTION.

Mr. BA R NAB T brought up the Report of the Committee
on this election, declaring that Fergus O'Connor, Esq., was
not duly elected a Knight of the Shire for the county of Cork,
that Richard Longfield, Esq. was duly elected, and that the
petition and opposition were neither frivolous nor vexatious.
PUBLIC INSTRUCTION—IRELAND.
Mr. SHAW, seeing the Noble Lord the Secretary for
Ireland in his place, wished to enquire when it was likely the
Report of the Commissioners of Public Instruction in Ireland
would be laid upon the Table.
Lord MORPETH said that it should be transmitted forth
with.

ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS.
Sir ROBERT PEEL wished to ask the Attorney-General
whether it was his intention to bring forward in the present
Session any measure for the improvement of the administra•
tion of justice in the Ecclesiastical Courts.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said, that it was his in
tention to propose a measure on the subject without delay.
