IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-(YESTERDAY.)

The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat at five o'clock.

The Earl of SHAFTESBURY presented petitions
from Weymouth in favour of the introduction of the
representative principle into the system of county expen-
diture ; from Westbury, Thetford, Rugby, and Arabia-
side against the opium traffic, and from Bath against
the admission of Jews into Parliament.

ADMIRAL OF THE FLEET.
The Marquis of SALISBURY begged to ask the
noble earl opposite the reason why the office of Admiral
of the Fleet had not been filled. It was a matter of sur-
prise to a great number of persons why the oldest and
most distingui,hed admiral on the list had not been ap-
pointed to the vacant office.
Earl GRANVILLE dissented from the practice that
,had arisen of putting questions to the Government
when a certain person w,is not promoted. He
did not think it would be for the benefit of
the service that Parliament should dictate to her Ma-
jesty's Government the parties that should be promoted.
There might arise cases in which Parliament might in-
terfere and call upon the Government for explana-
tons on account of certain appointments—(hear, hear)—
but as a practice it was very objectionable that questions
should be asked in that house why certain parties were
not appointed to particular offices.
The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND said the office
of Admiral of the Fleet was considered to be the only
prize in the navy ; it was therefore, he thought, a case
in which inquiry might be made, why the oldest admiral
was not appointed to the vacant office.
Earl GRANVILLE said he thought it undesirable to
answer the question.
The subject then dropped.

PRIVATE BUSINESS.

hills were read a second time :—Wearmouth Bridge

provements, Ely Valley Railway, Baron Windsor's Estate,

water's Estate Bill, and Mansfield and Worksop Road
Bill.

GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY (CAPITAL)

BILL.

On the motion that the bill be read a second time.
Lord ST. LEONARDS drew the attention of their
lordships to the hardship the present bill entailed on the
preferenceshareholders, who, by one of the provisions, were
prevented from receiving the dividends to which they were
justly entitled. It was exceedingly hard that persons who
had invested their money in a company, ehould, in
consequence of a fraud having been committed
by a clerk in that company, be subject to the
provisions of this measure, which was one to legalise the
acts of the directors, who, since the Redpath frauds had
,een discovered, sought to throw the loss on the shalt.,
holders generally ; but the petition which he held in his
hand, and which he begged to present to their lordships,
prayed the house not to pass the hill, as the petitioners
contended that they as preference shareholders, ought
not to be called upon to contribute towards making good
the loss those frauds had entailed on the company.
After a few words from Lord WENSLEYDALE the
bill was read a second time.
