PUBLICATIOIi S.

given notice, the effect of which was to consider the ex-
pediency of withholding all further grants of public
money for religious purposes in Ireland. ("Hear,
hear," and renewed cries of " Divide.")
Mr. GILPIN paid that, although a young member, he
would not be put down by any amount of clamour from
any side of the Louse. Be regretted that the hon. mem-
ber for Buckingham had not thought proper to persist in
his amendment, although it did not go far enough. Whilst
be oljected to the grant to Maynooth as strongly as the
hon. member for Warwickshire, he did so on a different
principle. If he were asked whether the State ought to
support any particular sect, he should be prepared tosay
"No," b?canse be thought that all religions ought to
stand upon a footing of perfect equality. He protested
agaihst the hotse being made an arena of theological con-
troversy, He trusted that ere long the question of reli-
gious grants would be altogether disposed of by the sim-
ple, plain, and understat da; le preposition that Parlia-
ment did not assemble to set.le questions of orthodoxy or
heterodoxy, but to support the equal rights of all good
citizens in all parts of the empire. (Loud cries of "
divide.")
Mr. lIADFIELD regretted that the time had not yet
come for potting an end to religious controverses in the
House of C 'tarpons. After its decision re'ative to
ministers' money, he h oed the hon. member for Cork
and those caho supported him would place themselves
in that high station and independence which would
free 'hem from these c )ntroversies for ever. (gear,
hear.) What was 26,000/. a year for seven or eieht
toill,ons of people ? If he were a Catholic, he should
feel ashamed of appealing to Parliament for such a patty
grant. (Divide, divide.) The Roman Catholics ought
to endeavour to free themselves from the prejudices
which had been felt against them for past ages. They
ought to relinquish the grant and place themselves in
juxtaposition with the Majority of her Majesty's sub--
jecta. (Hear, hear, and repeated cries of "Divide
divide.") ,
The SPEAKER then put the question, after which
Mr. NEWDEGATE, amidst much laughter, rose to
address the house, but was informed by the Speaker
that he was too late. (Renewed laughter.)
The house then divided. The numbers were—
For Mr. Spooner's motion
Against it . 125
Majority --34
Tire announcement of the numbers were received with
loud cheers from the ministerial side of the house.
Mr. NEWDEGATE then rose to move the adjourn-
ment of the house, for the purpose of explaining that a
misunderstanding had arisen on the part of some hon.
members who were not accustomed to the forms of the
house. (Laughter.) They were not aware that they
could not speak after the question had been put. In
the expectation that some hon. member would have
arisen he bad waited until it was too late. (Laughter.)
He did not in the least impugn the division of the chair.
Mr. ROEBUCK rose to order. There was no ques-
tion before the house, and therefore the hon. member
had no right to speak.
The SPEAKER intimated that the hon. member for
Warwickshire had moved the adjournment of the house,
and was therefore at liberty to proceed. (Hear.)
Mr. NEWDEGATE said he had been induced to
adopt-the invidious course of moving the adjournment for
the purpose of allowing him to explain how many hon.
members had been precluded from expressing their opi-
nions on a subject which deeply interested their feelings,
and from the decision on which many had been excluded.
He would not withdraw his motion for the adjournment
until the hon. and learned member for Sheffield had
taken any exception which he might think fit.
Mr. H. HERBERT, after the remarks which had just
fallen from the hon. member for Warwickshire, felt
bound to say that the house had appeared so utterly in-
different to the subject that during the eloquent and
stirring speech of the hon. member—(laughter)—there
were only two members on Use benches near him.
(Cheers and laughter.) The hon. member (Mr. Newde-
gate) was perfectly aware of the forms of the house,
and ought to have known better than to miss his oppor-
tunity, If the hon. member intended to convey to the
country the idea that there had been any surprise—
Mr. NEWDEGATE declared that he had not made
any such it sinuo.•ion.

JOHN HALIFAX, GENTLEMAN,

" John fralifax is a very good and a very interesting novel. It is
designed to trace the career from boyhood to age of a perfect man - a
Christian gentleman—and it abounds in Incident, both well and
highly wrought. 'I broughout it is conceived in a h•gh spirit, and
written with great ability, better than ally former work, we think, of
its deservedly successful author."—Examiner.
