Lord STANLEY briefly replied.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said he could not agree
that this was not the introduction of a new principle. He
thought it was a new principle to compel the landlord to
ear pay
for an expenditure of which he did not approve.—( H,
hear.) He regretted that the inquiry lird been set on foot
with so much ostentation, for it had rated expectations amongst
a eople ell known to be too easily excited to hopes which
could not wbe realised by any measure, and which could only
suffer the most painful, and, he feared, the most disastrous dis-
appointment from the poor result of the inquiry in this Bill.--
( Hear, hear.) His Noble Friend had intimated to the HOW
that he should be most desirous of passing this Bill if the COm-
ulsory power should be thought fit by they Lordships that it
sshould be omitted in Committee. He wished to know if be
was wrong ?
Lord STA' LEY said that his Noble Friend was entirely
wrong in that point. What he said was only that he did
this
not
go so far as some of his Noble Friends, who thought that
till would have no beneficial tendency if that compulsory power
was withdrawn from it. He thought that it was a great ad-
vantage. He did not conceive that the Government officer ors
the principle of the Bill. He was ready to have any other a-
bitration which would secure to the tenantry the same advan-
tages and security for compensation. With reeard to the Go-
vernment officer and the Commissioners, they 'did not wish to
pledge themselves to their adoption, but leave it to discus.sien in
the Committee. He reserved also, on the part of her Majesty's
Government, the option of receiving the Bill at all, after these
alterations were made.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that it was the first
time his Noble Friend had mentioned the last sentence. Th!
two former he had repeated for the third time. He thought
that it would he advantageous to the honest tenants, but.tt,
might be a weapon of endless vexation and torment to tnif`
hands of a litigious and dishonest tenant. The system j,
agreement was one which was fast gaining ground in Irelan
and which would prevail to a greater extent in some Year!
hence. It was the bounden duty of their Lordship; to adqns'

Every tenant who wished to improve his land, should look to
his landlord in the first instance as to the means by which hhies
would effect his improvements. Well then, hearing fromand
Noble Friend that he did attach importance to this Act,
yet if he still stated that anything would accrue from this
Bill to the benefit of Ireland, after altering the
parts, he (Lord Lansdowne) was not prepared to oppose the
Bill going into Committee. He would say, before he sat down,
that he did look upon the Bill as one of greats mportance to
Ireland, and also of equal importance to Engld and Scot:
