(THIS EVENING.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

Their Lordships assembled at the usual hour.
Messengers from the Commons brought up several Bills.
TIIE. DUBLIN AND GALWAY RAILWAY.

The Lad of BESBOROUGH brought up the report of the
Committee appointed to inquire whether it was expedient to
' prosecute the ssitness Stinton for perjury, which was to the
following effect :—That the Committee had met and considered
the subject referred to them, and that they were of opinion that
although it was manifest that Stinton nad wilfulty contra-
dicted himself in the evidence given by him before the
Select Committee appointed to inquire into the allegations
against the Dublin and Galway Railway, contained in, the pe-
tition of John Pimm, presented on the 7th of July, it were ex-
pedient to direct that he be prosecuted.
Lord CAMPBELL entirely agreed with the report, and
had no di.ubt that the dignity of the House, and
if ju.,tive would not be compromised by the course recom-
mended. He was anxious it should be understood that pro-
ceedings against this person would have been taken if the House
had thought him guilty ; that persons would be fined or impri-
soned if guilty of equivocation or misconduct whilst giving evi-
dence before that House. If the same thing should occur again
it was dearly in the power of the House to punish the
parties, and that theywou:d surely be punished.
Lord ELLENI3OROUGII was also in favour of the report.
The report was then laid on the table.
GRAND JUNCTION.

Earl of DALHOUSIE presented a petition against the
amalgamation of the Grand Junction, Leigh, and other lines.
COMMONS INCLOSURE BILL.

Griffiths against this Bill.

Lillis Repeal Bill, Customs Management Bill, Customs Regu-
lation Bill, Smuggling Prevention Bill, British Vessels
Bill, Customs Duties Bill, Warehousing of Geois Bill, Cus-
toms' Bounties and Allowances Bill, Trade of British Posses-
sions Abroad Bill, Isle of Man Ti ade Bill.

mittee, and was reported.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

The SPEAKER took the Chair shortly before Four o'clock.
'lhe reports on the following Bills were brought up :—Fol-
lett's 1 state Bill, the Birmingham Blue Coat School Estate
Bill, Sir Robert Keith Dick's Estate Bill, the Marquis of
Donegal's Estate Bill, Siti,ps,n's Estate Bill, Winchester Col-
lege Estate Bill, Bowes' Estate Bill, and the Duke of
,bridge-
wager's Estate Bill.

quired into. Ho had a perfect right tatask the House to rei.
commit the Bill and suspend proceeding; in the. ease, if
it nere only from the fact that important companies
had not been heard before that Committee. They would have
furnished a body of evidence against the project which would
be of the uto ost importance. but they were precluded doing
so. When the L,,ndon and York case hr,d dosed, an appeal
was made to the Chairman that they should be heard by coun-
sel, but the request was nut acceded to; and he appealed to any
Hon. Gentleman present, who had been chairman of
a Committee of that House, if that refusal were not
unfair and contrary to precedent. Besides, the Committee bad
not been unanimous in their decision, and it was only by the
casting vote of the Chairman that the preamble of the Bill
assliass s
p,tffir d
fnied.
urth„r
proceedings cieedi thesengs roognthuindslis asked the House to
ill.
Mr. HUTT seconded the motion, and thought the House
had good reason to be dissatisfied with the decision of the Com-
nnttee. As to the proceedings of the Committee, he did not
wonder that they felt their physical energies giving way
under tie overwhelmir.g mass ot busin, ss before them; it was
scarcely to he ex; ected that their strength should keep up
against such accumulating matters, and to that circumstance
might, be pry hap. attributed their unwilling' esti to adcat a course
more consonant w ttls the regulations of the House. But to what-
ever cause it was to be attached, their proceedings were scarcely
con istent with the rules of Parliament er the justice of the
care. It wa, vet y true that, as yet, they had not concluded
their labours, but virtually and effectuarly they had concluded
their labours with regard to the present Bill. The House,
vet- en it nominated certain Members to inquire into a ease,
neces,arrly required that some report should be presented
nn each particular Bill, but at the present moment
several Bills had been disposed ef without a hearing or the
slightest consideration, as much as if they had never appeared
before the Committee at all. For these reasons he considered
it his duty to support the motion of his Hon. Friend fur the re-
committal ot the Bill.

On the queAtion.being put from the Chair,
Lord COURTENAY said that as Chairman of the Com-
mittee to which the grouped Bills had been intrusted, he might
perhaps be excused if he stated to the House the course of pro-
ceeding, and as that, and not the peculiar merits of the pro-
jects, had been made the chief subject. of comment by the
Hon. Member for Sheffield, he would confine himself as strictly
as possible to meeting that particular question. The report
which had been that morning laid before the Members of the
House, mentioned' the numbered Bills which had been re'crred
to the consideration of the Committee. The Hon. Member
opposite complained of the apoloptie tone in which :he repurt
was introduced ; it apology were discernible, he could assure the
Hon. Member that it was not from any misgiving of error or
irregularity. but that impressed with the stupendous charge with
which they were intrusted they wished to evince a sense of that
:insportenee,.and also shox their respect to the House. They,
therefore, Weremaceutent tvith giving a mere dry and general de-
tail but explain the circumstantes hich led to their decision. He
must be. permitted now to say that, although upon the merits
of the -two Bills the Committee were not unanimous, but
divides! in their decision, as respected the oourse of proceeding
throughout their sitting, they were, invariably unanimous.
Whether. therefore, right or wrong, regular or irregular, these
proceedings were adopted in accordance with the decision of the
Commit tee.—( Hear, hear.) The Hon. Member for Sheffield
had stated that an &revilement...lnd been .made, and a resolu-
tion adopted, vvhereiseakey elated their intention of including
in one Bill the Sheff4dand Lincoln and Tottenham and Far-
ringeon-street Extension. That was perfectly true ; and it
was on this ground that the Bills thus included, were considered
as more or less in competition with each other, either
in a direct line north and south, er, laterally
east and west ; and subsequent to this at rangement, on a spe-
cial at plication, the Hertford and Bigkle.viade was added to
the list by sub-grouping. That preliminary matter being
settled, they proceeded to classify the schemes in the order in
which they should be heard. The London and York was that
taken first, because it was the first in point of faith.
Throughout the entire case counsel were let in to cross-examine
every witness, and it would be found, on reference to the
repent, that one, two, three, four, and five Couusel exercised
this right. If any Member had been present in the Com-
mittee-room during the seventy or eighty days that the
Committee sat upon the line, he would have seen the course
adopteed, and been enabled to bear witness to the accuracy
of his statements. The Hon. Member had also referred
to the resolution adopted by the Committee on the
Several Members of the Committee had expressed a desire of
coming to a decision en such parts of the case, as would not
inflict injury on other parties who had claims to be heard before
the Committee ; and, as far as the leading lines were con-
cerned, it was .unsidered necessary and desirable to eome to
some resolutions on such parts of the scheme as would involve
this arrangement of the business. In pursuance with this
application was made before the case of the London
and York was gone into, and when on an objection
was taken to it in respect to certain errors which were alledged
to exist. in the plans of that scheme, that the whole case be- '
tween the two great lines should be taken, and that the counsel
on behalf of toe Direct Northern should state the places at
which they proposed to prove the effect of the errors specified
to be so great as to reinter the work impracticable. It was
at the same time reqnested by counsel on the side of the London
and York, that the Committee should come to a dee'aien on the
mei its of that scheme atter the termination of the Tottenham
and Farringdon-street case. Himself and his Hon. Colleagues'
on the Committee concurred in saying in answer to
the application that on the Monday following they would give
their decision separately on those applications. On the
Monday they met, and came to the conclusion that when the
cases of the Direct Northern and Farringdon-street Extension
lines were closed, they would proceed to con&der the merits
of the two competing lines before them, for effecting a second
trunk railway communication between London and York, viz.:,
that of the London and York Company, and that which con-,
sisted of the Cambridge and Lincoln- the Direct Northern,
and the Frrringdon Extension lines, in conjunction with the,
Eastern Counties Ralway, already executed as tar as Cam-,
bridge. All were agreed on this resolution. We were guided
by the arguments of the revert of the Board of Trade in ex-
cluding that part of the Midland Counties Railway which was;
considered to be in competition with the London and York line.
They considered that it would he eeceedingly objec-
tionable to extend further the Midland Counties scheme
considering the circumstances under which that Company
had acted. They took that step with due deliberation
subject to the responsibility of that House. They felt justified
that the course they took was in conformity with the interests of
all parties concerned. An appli, atiun was made to them on July
In, on behalf of the Eastern Counties and the York and North
illidland Companies to be allowed to present. rebutting evidence
against the London and York line.s The application was
made by Mr. Talbot, and an answer was returned to the.
effect that the Committee, in the exercise of its discretion,
considered the London and York, the Cambridge and Lincoln.
the Direct Northern, and the Tottenham and Farringdon
Extension, with the existing Cambridge Railway, were the
only two schemes that competed inter se as it respected a direct
trunk communication from London to York ; and thus the
Cambridge and Huntingdon line should be taken next in
order. These resolutions were come to, after a due
examination of evidence and a careful consideraton of
the question. The opposition of Lord Sidney bad
been referred to, and on that subject he would say a few words.
Counsel on behalf of that Noble Lord had been heard, witnesses
called and subjected to examination and; cross-examination ;
many questions were asked by the members of the Committee
anti a map of the place was used to guide them in their inquiry..
In fact, it was not without much care and consideration that
the Committee decided, and then not before the case on behalf
of the Noble Lord had been fully heard. The principle on which
the Committee was, at every stage of their business,
to select such Bills as might be considered competing
schemes, and to view them in connexion with each other.
The House had entrusted the Committee with
a certain discretionary power, and it had been
honer ly and he trusted impartially exercised..
't hat was the resolution they had acted upon. He was not
corocious of having omitted any part of his duty as a Member
of the Committee, but thought all of them had acted in ac-
cordance with precedent, and in conformity with the immense
interest involved in the ca-e. He would not further say, then,
that they had endeavoured to do the best they could, and hoped
the House would consider that they had not acted in any way
improperly.
IN G WALL said he felt very strongly that the
attert ton of the dou,e should be drawn to the manner in which
the London ant Yore Committee aced—if that Committee had
adopted the same principles as had been acted upon in other. a
great numl,er of the complaints of his Hon. Friend the mem-
ber for Sheffield would have been mini cessary. He and most
men enter into the merits of the case, but thought the
Committee had taken every pains tr.) arrive at a proper result.
( The Hon. Member spoke in so low a tone of voice, that one
while sentence of what he uttered was not audible in the
gallery.)
Atter lib .er va t ion s from several other Members, the House
divided—

and gallop a mile for 10/. The walk came off first in
Queen Anne's ride—even betting, mare for choice. The cob
took the lead, kept it the whole of the distance, and won
cleverly ; the mare broke and was pulled round twice. The
trotting match came off next-2 to 1 on the cob; both started off
well together, and there was no perceptible advantage on either
side for the first halt mile. The cob afterwards broke twice, thus
allowing the mare to come in an easy winner. The galloping

mile, when he was challenged by the mare, but he defeated her
easily by a length. The horses were cleverly ridden by their owners
