the words, but he deprecated a division on such a ques-
tion.—(tiear.)

Mr. HUNT could not see what right the scotch had
to Divine Providence morel that the Enelish. He there-
fore rottld not t.ee why the words were introduced by the
t.catned Lord, unless for the purpose of provoking dis-
cossion.—(Hear, hear.)
Sir G. CLERK did not think it improper to discuss
such subjects in the House of Commons, though he re-
gretted that the subject had been introduced, as there
were gentiemen in the House who treated it with ir-
reverence.

Mr. WARBURTON regretted the expression used by
his Hon. Friend, the Member for Member for Middle-
sex; as the use of such word:-; conveyed an imputation of
motives ".::hi^h ought always to be avoided. He objected
to introduce the name of Providence, as connected with
impending evil, when it was not in the same manner con-
nected wi•h the blessings we enjoyed. He should, there-
fore, object to the amendment.

The LORD ADVOCATE had introduced the Bill
simewhat in Liste last night, and he bad since proposed
the addition of the words now objected to, without having
observed what was the preamble of the English Bill.
However, he felt convinced that the words would be
agreeable to the people of Scotland, for in all the letters
he had received from that country, the infliction of the
cholera was spoken of as an infliction of Divine Providence,
and one which was only to he removed by his aid. As
to the wish expressed, that the amendment might be
withdrawn, he certainly could not consent to withdraw
it. If, therefore, it could not be introduced without a
division, there must he a division, for other Members
(even should he consent to the withdrawal) would propose
the same words.

Mr. JAMES GORDON hoped that the question would
be pressed to a division, that the names of those who
thought fit to venture to reject such an amendment might
he put on record, and the name• of those who stood up to
vindicate their principles might equ illy he known.
Mr. C. FERGUSSON said, that a speech so calculated
to sow dissension as that of the Hon. Member for Dun-
dalk, he had never heard.

Mr. BRISCOE should support the amendment.
Mr. JAMES said, that if that House was to be occu-
pied with religious discussions, he thought a separate day
ought to be appointed for them, and no day fitter than
Sunday ; and as it would be out of the question to ask the
Speaker, after the labours of the week, to take the chair,
they ought to apply to the Chaplain to preside ever them.
He objected to the useless, and therefore irreverent intro-
duction of the name of God inta any instrument, and
should therefore vote with the Hon. Metnl.er for Middlesex.

Mr. JOHN WOOD was one of those who stigmatised
as cant and hypocrisy the irreverent use of God's holy name
on improper occasions, and should therefore vote with the
Hon. Member for Middlesex on this question.
Mr. HUNIE knew that the motives which led him to
oppose the introduction of these words would not be mis-
taken by his countrymen.
Sir R. INGLIS hoped that no division would be taken
on this subject, for he wished for their sakes that no men
should have on their conscience the responsibility of having
negatived such a❑ amendment.

The Committee then divided, when there appeared—
For the amendment 55
Against it

The House resumed, the report was read and agreed
to, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time to-morrow.

The other Orders of the Diy wrre then disposed of, and
the House adjourned at Half-plat Two o'clock.
