The bill was consequently lost.
PROSECUTION EXPENSES BILL.

Mr. GOLDNEY moved the second reading of the
bill, the object of which was to provide for the pay-
ment of expenses in cases of felonies and misde-
meanours in which no convictions occurred.

4r. BARING, on the part of the Government, was
not inclined to 'object to the second reading of the
bill, but he could not bind himself to support the
whole of the clauses in committee.
The bill was then read a second time.
CATTLE PLAGUE BILL.

Mr. num. moved that the Lords' amendments to
this bill be considered. There had been some very
extensive alterations made in the bill, but yet
enough was left in it to make it a very valu-
able measure, and, therefore, he thought that
the house, instead of abandoning the bill, had
better accept it as it had been amended, because
with a few trifling alterations it could be made
highly efficient.
A discussion ensued, in which Sir J. Trollope,
Mr. Beech, and Mr. Pugh took ,part as to the
course to be adopted with respect to this measure.
Mr. BARING, on the part of the Government,
said, in the event of the hon. member abandoning
the bill, he was instructed to say the Government
would take the matter into their hands and deal with
it in the following manner : To strengthen the con-
stitution of the Privy Council office ; to enact
that all fairs for store cattle be suspended for a
limited time ; that markets for the sale of fat
cattle should not be held without a licence from the
Privy Council, and that no such cattle should leave
the market alive, and that certain regula-
tions should be laid down with respect
to removal of hides and manure. The Government
would also take active measures to direct railway
companies to effectually cleanse the railway cattle
trucks. Under these circumstabces he trusted the
hon. member for Northamptonshire would abandon
a bill which, in its altered state, could not now be
called his.

Mr. HUNT said he was quite willing to withdraw
the bill now that for the first time he had heard
that the Government would take upon themselves
the responsibility of dealing with the matter. If
that course had been adopted in the first instance
a great deal of valuable time would have been
saved.
