Election Committee, without its being at all dis-
cussed by the House. The Hon. Member would,
therefore, use his discretion, and consider whether
he would reserve the petition until he could receive
further directions from the petitioners as to whether
he should present it in the only form in which it
could be received by the House.
Mr. W. O'BRIEN made some observations which
were quite inaudible in the gallery.
The SPEAKER said, that if it was to be re-
ferred to an Election Committee, the Hon. Member
would be in time within 14 days after the return of
the Writ to the Crown Office. To-morrow week
would be in sufficient time.

Mr. W. O'BRIEN then withdrew the petition, for
the present, in order to have time to communicate
with the petitioners.

CUSTOMS BILL.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
moved the third reading of the Customs Bill.
Mr. POULETT THOMSON opposed the
Bill, and said, that in bare justice to India, he would
move the amendment, of which he had given notice
on a previous evening.
Mr. LEYCESTER also opposed the Bill,
which he thought would compromise the charac-
ter of the House. The plan proposed to be car-
ried into effect by it, was more consonant to the cha-
racter of the country over which Mr. O'Connell
presided, than to the sober judgment of Parliament.
He hoped that the opposition now offered to the
Bill would be a gentle admonition to fresh men of
the present Administration not to give incautious
promises.
Mr. HUMS also opposed the Bill.

Mr. HOBHOUSE. thought this matter, though
unimportant in itself, was of vital importance, as it
vindicated the spirit of the New Board of Trade.
The House should be consistent, and support the
amendment.

After a few observations from Mr. HUMP, Mr.
MABEKLY, and Mr. WYNN, in support of the amend-
ment, the House divided on the amendment
proposed by Mr. Thomson, and the numbers were,
For the Amendment 3l
Against it 4B
Majority —l'/

The Bill was then read a third time, and passed.
On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER, the Appropriation Act went
through a Committee, and the Report was ordered
to be received to-morrow.

On the motion of Sir ALEXANDER GRANT,
the Lunatic Estates Bill was read a third time with
the Amendments, and passed.
The House went into a Committee on the Irish
Butter Trade Regulation Bill. After a few words
from Mr. SPRING RICE, Mr. COU'RTENAN, and Mr.
MAURICE FITZGERALD, the Report was received ;
the Bill was read a second time with the Amend-
ments, and ordered to beread a third time to-morrow.

The other Orders of the Day were then dis•
posed of.

Mr. OTWAY CAVE presented a petition from
Leicester, complaining of the misappropriation of
public money, by the Corporation of that borough.
The House adjourned at a Quarter before Six
o' Clock.
