.quired by the tenantry of Ireland, and that, so far as the
province of Ulster was concerned, the farmers would be
indignant at having it thrust upon them in lieu of the
custom of tenant-right. The bill was, he believed, one of
the three measures indicated by Mr. Bright in his letter to
the Lord Mayor of Dublin, which were to receive the sup-
port of the English Liberals in return for Irish votes in
favour of the Reform Bill. The three measures were the
alteration of the National System of Education, the demoli-
tion of the Irish Church, and the introduction of Tenant
Right.

Mr. SANDERSON was prepared to vote for the second
reading, but indicated certain amendments, of which ho
considered the bill susceptible, in committee.

Mr. SYNAN accepted the measure as a fair settlement
of the question, which would bind the two countries toge-
ther by the strongest ties of mutual interest.

Sir F. HEYGATE believed that the first effect of the
measure, if passed into law, would be to deter landlords
from the improvement of their property, and that it would
produce no real benefit to the country.
After some observations from Mr. ESMONDE, delivered
amid indications of general impatience,
Mr. BAGWELL moved the adjournment of the :debate,
which, on a division, was carried by 167 to 154. Monday
was then fixed for the resumption of the discussion.
A subsequent attempt was made to adjourn the debate
on the motion for the second reading of the Customs In-
land Revenue Bill, which was defeated by 120 to 101.
Mr. DISRAELI took exception to the manner in which
the public business was conducted, and complained that a
measure of such importance as the Customs and inland
Revenue Bill should be forced on at nearly one o'clock in
the morning.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER ultimately
gave way, and the second reading was fixed for this day.
The Labouring Classes Dwellings (Ireland) Bill was
passed through committee.

A number of other bills were advanced a stage, and the
house adjourned at 15 minutes past one o'clock.

tween the retainers of the two rival proprietors,
which last Sunday week was to have decided their
respective rights more Hibernico, but which the
police had the bad taste to prevent, was the subject
of investigation at Murree petty sessions yesterday.
The case had been laid before the law adviser
to the Castle, who recommended. that the leaders
of the opposing forces, Messrs. Charles and
Richard Lloyd, sons of Mrs. Lloyd, and Mr. Cor-
bett, agent to Sir Richard de Burgho, should be sent
for trial to quarter sessions on a charge of riotous
assembling. The presiding magistrates, however,
of ter a long discussion, refused to adopt this extreme
course, and only held them to bail in their own re-
cognisances of £lOO each.

A gratifying proof that manufacturing enterprise
is making steady progress in this country is fur-
nished by the Clonmel Chronicle, which states that
a new foundry of spacious extent has been con-
structed at Mayfield Factory, Portlaw, and is now
at full work, turning out 10 tons of castings every
week, as large, if not a larger quantity than at any
manufacturing establishment in the three kingdoms.
