presented by their chiefs in the popular branch of the Le-
gislature. With reference to what the gallant admiral had
said of his right hon. frierid the member for Droitwich, he
had to take upon himself the whole responsibility.

Admiral DUNCOMBE expressed his thanks to the
right hon. 'gentleman the member for Buckinghamshire.
Now the thing was done with, and he did not think it
necessary to say any more on the subject.

Mr. KINNAIRD regretted that the naval department
was not represented as it ought to be in this house, and
especially when it was considered that within the last six
years no less a sum titan £80,000,000 had been granted
for the navy. (Hear, hear.)
The motion was then agreed to.

SALARIES, EMOLUMENTS, AND PENSIONS.
Mr. WHITE hoped the house would grant him indul-
gence while he moved an address for a return of all persons
in England, Scotland, and Ireland, receiving salaries, pen-
sions, pay, profit, foes, emoluments, allowances, or grants
of public money, in the year 1860, the amounts of which
exceeded £l5O, the form and particulars to be in conformity
with Parliamentary paper, No. 601, of Session 1849. Ob-
jections had been made on a former occasion to the grant-
ing those returns; but their importance was very great. The
hon. member here entered into a statement of the amounts
of those salaries, &c., and the vast cost of their collection.
He assured the house that this was not a party question,
as might be inferred from there being a large number of
the firm of " Jones, Brown, and Robinson" in the list of
pensioners as of any other party in the State. (Laughter.)
He found, on looking down the pension list, the names of
18 Russells, 12 Greys, and 7 Grahams—(laughter)—and he
also found in it the names of 46 Browns and 16 Campbells.
(Laughter,) But as he understood the returns would not
be opposed, he would not now say more on the subject, and
would sit down content.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the
returns for which the hon. gentleman m9ved would involve
a great deal of trouble in th 3 making out, and he would
therefore suggest to the hon. gentleman whether it would
not be more convenient if he were not to ask for a return of
the very low pensions, and would confine his motion to
those of £5OO a year and upwards.
Mr. WHITE thought if he were to do so that the object
he had in view would not be accomplished. He therefore
hoped the returns would be made out on the same principle
as when, granted to the late Mr. Hume.
NATIONAL EDUCATION (IRELAND)
Mr. BUTT moved for a return, specifying the several
schools in connection with the National Board of Education
in Ireland in which Protestant and Roman Catholic chil-
dren were jointly receiving education at the period to which
the returns were made up in the last report of the Educa-
tion Commissioners, and the number of Protestant and Ro-
man Catholic children in each such school respectively.
The hon. member also moved for and obtained leave to
bring in a bill on the subject.
The bill was accordingly brought in and read a first time.
TRAMWAYS (SCOTLAND) BILL.

This bill was read a second time and ordered to be cow
witted.

POST-OFFICE SAVINGS BANKS BILL.

On the motion for the second reading of this bill,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he
understood further explanations relating to the bill were
required, and as it was then late he begged to postpone
the second reading.to Tuesday next.
LAW OF FOREIGN COUNTRIES BILL.

This bill was read a third time and passed.
The house adjourned at 12 o'clock.
