condition of the labouring classes in this country.
Seeing that the Maynooth Bill was to be committed
on Friday, he was unwilling that the debate on his motion,
which would probably be an adjourned one, should interfere
with the progress of that Bill. He wirhed to consult the con-
venience of the House as well as that of the Right Hon. Gentle-
man, and he was, therefore, willing to postpone his resolutions.
But as it would be uncertain when he could bring forward
his motion upon a motion day, perhaps the Right Hon. Gen-
tleman would give him romo order day, which would be con-
venient to the Government, in order to enable him to bring
forward his "notion._
__

Sir ROBERT PEEL said that, supposing the Noble Lord's
motion would lead to an adjourned debate, it would certainly
be inconvenient that three or four days should elapse between
the first night of that debate and its resumption. He wis unwil-
ling also that anything should interfere with the Maynooth Bill,
which he intended should be committed on Friday. Perhaps
his Hon. Friend the Member for Oxford:would be.able to state
how long it was likely the debate on the third reading would
continue. If his Hon. Friend thought it would be
impossible to conclude the debate on the third reading
on Friday, he (Sir Robert Peel) had no alternative
left but to fix the third reading of the Maynoeth
Bill for some early day after the Whitsun holidays. He
thought the House would agree with him, that they should dis-
pose of that Bill before they proceeded with any other business.
That would give an opportunity of a continuous debate imme-
diately after. Whitsuntide. Then, in that case, as the Noble
Lord had waived his right of precedence on Thursday in order
that the Maynooth Bill might proceed on the following day—
in that case, he ( Sir R. Peel) would give the Noble Lord the
first vacant Monday after the. third reading of the Maynooth
Bill, for the introduction of his motion.

Sir R. INGLIS was understood -to say that he concurred
with the Right Hon. Baronet in the course he proposed to take.
Si: R. PEEL—Perhaps it will be the best course to fix the
third reading of the Maynooth Bill for Monday, the 19th of
May, and the day for the Noble Lord's motion for Monday,
the 26th of May.
THE TARIFF.
Mr. EWART wished to know-if the Right Hon. Gentle-
man would fix some day for the supplementary tariff debate.
This was a subject on which, of course, much interest was felt,
and he trusted that the Right Hon. Gentleman would fix some
day for that debate.
Sir ROBERT PEEL was understood to say that the
question had lately been under his consideration. If
the Hon. Gentleman would be Content with the assurance
that he (Sir R. Peel) would give a Government day as early
as possible, he would give that assurance. They must have a
vote on supply at an early day ; and as soon as the motion of
the Noble Lord (J. Russell) was disposed of, he would name
a day.
Lord J. RUSSELL was understood to say that be would
therefore postpone his motion till after Whitsuntide.
Mr. M. GIBSON hoped that a night would be appointed
for the motion of his Hon. Friend the Member for Wolver-
hampton, on the subject of butter and cheese.— (A laugh.) His
Hon. Friend had had a notice on the paper before the tariff was
brought forward, and he postponed it at the request of the
Right Hon. Gentleman ( Sir R. Peel.) He thought, there-
fore, that he was entitled to have an early day named.
Sir R. PEEL thought that some departure from such an
arrangement as that referred to by the Hon. Gentleman might
be excused, when it was considered that there had since been
ten days debate upon the Maynooth Bill before going into Com-
mittee. The Right Hon. Gentleman, who was very imper-
fectly heard, was understood to say that he would fulfil the
engagement as early as possible.
Mr. F. MAULE said that the Right Hon. Gentleman had
promised that, before the second reading of the Maynooth Bill,
he would state what his ulterior measures respecting the
Roman Catholics of Ireland could be. The third reading, he
(Mr. Fox Maule) understood was to take place on the 19th of
May, he wished to ask, therefore, whether the Right Hon.
Baronet would make his statement before the holidays?
Sit R. PEEL would do all he could to make the statement
before the holidays
Mr. BULLER asked when would the Right H. nourable
Baronet explain his plan as to the provincial colleges ?
Sir R. PEEL was understood to say that he would do so
before the holidays.
Several of the motions which were on yesterday's paper
were then further postponed.
The Calico Print Works Bill was read a third time and
passed.
