content to the passing of this Bill, as he believed it to be
unnecessary. ,

the offence of poaching by distress.
The Bill, was: then passed.

ment Bill, was read a. second time.
HOLYHEAD RAILWAY WAY.
• The Marquis of CLANRICARDE said that as the
report respecting the :harbour of 'Holyhead was not yet
before the House, lie would postpone his motion for a
Committee on the Chester and Holyhead Railway Bill
till the end of the week. . .
Lord MONTEAGLE thought it was a great hard-
ship upon the promoters of this Bid to be kept in sus-
pense by these
.repeated postponements. He thought
the Bill ought to pass forthwith.
The Earl of WICKLOW also thought. the Bill ought
to pass. .
The E'er] of DALIMITSIE said it was the intention
-of the Government; in case a direct line of communica-
tion between Holyhead and London should be made, to
recommend to Parliament to make a grant for the im-
provement of Holyhead harbour.
The-Marquis of CLANRICARDE thought the mat-
ter ought to be referred to a Committee before their
Lordships adopted the Bill. He had no wish to prevent
the Bill from passing.; but he thought it ought to be
fully_ considered in its details before it passed.
—(Hear, hear.) It was
_essentially necessary that
provision should be made for the , formation of a proper
harbour at Holyhead, and also that there should be a
good bridge beside by the Company across the Menai.
Lord DALHOUSIE- said that it was not unprece-
dented for Parliament to pass a Bill to enable a railway
company to form an interrupted line, where there wore
arrangements in progress for filling up the gap.
Lord RAYLEIGH said that it was the intention of
the Company to apply to Parliament next year for a Bill
to build a bridge across the Menai.
Lord .DA.LHOITSIE said that her Majesty's Govern-
ment had come tq.the deterriiination that Holyhead was
the preferable route of communication with Ireland, but
he was not able to say what the expense of making
Holyhead a good harbour might be.
Lord BROUGHAM objected to any infringement
upon the standing orders of that House, in respect to
priVate Bills. He thought. that it would be very credit-
able to the 'other House of Parliament, if that branch of
the Legislature adopted those standing orders. .
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE was most desirous of
improving the means of communication between 'Great
Britain and Ireland. But he
.agreed with his Noble and
Learned Friend (Lord Brougham) that it would be highly
inexpedient to give any instruction.s.from that House to a
Committee on a private Bill.—(Hear, hear.)
The Duke •of .WELLINGTON understood that the
Bill was for a railway to • Holyhead, which mu: t be
carried across the Menai Straits, and as that could not
be effected by means of the present bridge, there must
be a new bridge made for the purpose: No new instruc-
tion to the Committee vvero necessary.----(Hear, hear.)
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE &Lid that, as the
Bill stood at present there was no .obligation upon the
Company to build the bridge. -They were only to carry
the line, to the Menai, and passengers and luggage were
to be conveyed across the strait in boats.
After a few words from the Bishop of Bangorf -Lbrd
Monteagle, and the Marquis of Clanriciirde, the Bill
was read a second time, and ordered to he committed,
