l, with regard to this msttter extended over IreHland,y
etni wufeh charged all mayors and sheriffs with the exe-
. the °lll. of stringent penalties against offenders; but
e„.ta4egislatare had decided herwise. The Hun.
of Cet, an drew a glowing picture of the depressed st a'e

" this subject. He concluded by expressing his

'UNOLLY moved that the Bill be read a second
priori this this day six months. He objected entirely to the
eatif 140 of the Bill; the powers which it. proposed to
tyre upon the Commission were unconstitutional and
leei"ilitlical. He did not deny there was great call for
lol'aittiTe interference in these matters in Ireland, but
1:10' not think that the Hoc. Member's Bill was calcu-
t?:interfore in a proper manner. It was nectit-

her e° what 'Was , new in this Bill, but his objections
ear e4:llfined mainly to the new portion of this mea-

her- t out the charitable views which the Hon. Mem-
bad professed bringing forward this measure.
