CELLOR on the Woolsack.

Lord KENYON presented several petitions praying
for inquiry into the system of education pursued at May-
nooth, with a view to the withdrawal of the grant to
that College.
INSOLVENT DEBTORS' RELIEF BILL,

The Insolvent Debtors Relief Bill was read a third
time and passed.
Lord BROUGHAM hoped their Lordships would
bear with him a moment, while he took the op-
portunity to tender them and their Lordships his
hearty thanks, on behalf of a very unfortunate
and numerous class of his fellow• subjects, and to
express to them their hopes as well as gratitude
with regard to this Bill, abolishing, as it must do, in a
great many cases, imprisonment for debt, and obtaining
a distribution of the estate of debtors among the cre-
ditors. As long ago as 1828, he had strongly urged the
necessity of such a Bill as the present, and he hoped it
would be received by the other House of Parliament,
with the same favour with which it had been received by
their Lordships.

Lord CAAiPBELL rose to move an additional clause
to the Bill.

Lord BROUGHAM—The Bill has passed.—(Hear,
hear, and a laugh.)
Lord CAMPBELL entirely agreed with the objects of
the Bill, but had not been prepared for the railroad pace
with which it seemed to have been passed.
Lord BROUGHAM suggested that the clause, if ne-
cessary, might be added in the other House.
LICENSED LUNATICS ASYLUMS BILL.

It having been announced that the Members of the
Commons appointed to conduct the conference with
their Lordships on the Licensed Lunatic Asylums Bill,
were in waiting. Lord Beaumont and several other Peers
attended for their Lordships, and on their return re-
ported that the Commons had agreed to some of the
amendments, and from others they disagreed for reasons
they had stated.
