TURNPIKE ACTS CONTINUANCE BILL.

This Bill passed through Committee.
CANTERBURY SETTLEMENT LANDS BILL.
This Bill passed through Committee.
BILLS OF EXCHANGE BILL.

Lord EDDISBURY moyod the second reading of this
Bill.

Lord MONTEAGLE objected to these partial and
temporary repeals of the usury laws, and thought the
subject should be legislated for permanently.
Lord BROUGHAM entirely agreed with his Noble
Friend who had last spoken. He thought some. perma-
nent change in the law was absolutely necessary. He
believed that the practical effect of the usury laws was
to raise the rate of interest to the landowner who wanted
to raise money on mortgage.

The Marquis of LAN'SbOWNE agreed that this Bill
was a Bill in favour of the landed proprietors.—(" Hear,
hear," from Lord Brougham.) No inconvenience
had resulted from the suspension of the usury laws.
As this Bill had come up from the °tier House in its
present state, he would not interfere with it; but he be-
lieved it was regarded by all persons as absurd to attempt
to revert to the old usury laws.

Th. Bill was then reed a second time.
PROVISION FOR THE PRINCE OF WALES.—

MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE then brought down
a Message from her Majesty, recommending that Marl-
borough-house should be settled on the Prince of Wales
after he shall have attained eighteen years of age. He
gave notice that he should tomorrow call the attention
of the House to this subject.
