THE STANDING ORDERS OF THE HOUSE.
Earl STANHOPE caked the attention of the house to
the report of the select committee on the minutes and

standing orders ; and that the standing order No. 25,
directing that upon divisions in this house the " con-
tents" shall go below the bar and the " not-contents"
stay within the house, be vacated. The noble lord
said that when he last addressed the hones on that sub-
ject there appeared such unanimity, that he would not
detain their lordships at any length. He then explained
the mode in which the divisions of the house would be
taken four the future, and said if the recommendations of
the committee were agreed to a great improvement
would be made in the mode of conducting the business
of the house.
The Earl of EGLINTON moved certain amendments
to the resolutions of the committee, and said on the tak-
ing the numbers in a division the same rule as was ob-
served in the other house should be followed by their
lordships, and that for the future strangers be not re-
quired to leave the galleries of the house unless specially
ordered.
