LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1850.

A melancholy proof was afforded on
Monday
evening of the indifference of the House of Commons
to the centralizing machinations of the Government.
After an energetic protest from several of the metro-
politan representatives against the Ministerial Bill
for Extramural Interment as at present constituted,
decided by a majority of 102, in a House
of 216 , that the measure, already passed through
its first and acona reading, instead of being
laid before a Select Committee, according to
the amendment proposed by the Honourable
Gentleman the Member for Bodmin, should then at
once be submitted to a Committee of the whole
House, with a view to its speedy consolidation into
an enactment. Against the suggestion of Mr. LACY
it was specioudy argued that the compliance of the
House with his proposition would necessitate a very
considerable and injurious delay in the prosecution of
a course of r( fcrm most earnestly required.
If
.you send the Bill up-stairs to a Select
Committee, Fail the opponents of the Ho-
nourable Representative, you will render it
requisite to procra.,:tine,te the projected improvement,
the prevention of further intramural burial, and. the ,
