2'l' R. PEEL said that as the Bill had been three

allowed to he prOceeded with. If any unfair opposi-
tion "etc"etcoffered to the measure he could not help think-
j,s that such a course would be fatal to the character of
-es House.
Mr. MORRISON said he had always thought it inn-
tulant that our manufacturers should have some pro-
ection in the arts of design. It was most advis-
m"'e, he felt, that we should have an English
; at present we were mere copiers of the French.
et, at the same time, there were many difficulties in the
tuaY of legislating on the subject. Different manufac-
it revs•often purchased the same patterns in France ; and
was his opinion that the measure should be confined
e
4Zittsively to the designs of native artists.
ietv• M. PHILIPS said he was opposed to the priii-
C.' ,131* of giving parties a copyright in designs purchased
them in France. The purchases were oten made at a
berg low price ; and it sometimes happened that the
Mme patterns were bought by different individuals.
,_AIr.WILLIAMS said he should not press his amend-
'eent to a division.
The amendment was therefore withdrawn.
u
n clause 3 being put,
WILLIAMS proposed that protection to articles
in Fool, glass, and earthenware should be limited to
twelveh, months, instead of three years, as proposed in the
4411.
Air. lIUME wished to know what was to be protected,
4tl What was the reason of the protection.
teMr. GLADSTONE explained that the protection had
en extended from one year to three, in the same
Zener, as in printed calicoes it had been extended from
Free months to nine.

WILLIAMS said ho should not divide the House,
eoritent himself with recording his opposition to it.
On 4,5, and 6, were agreed to.
"..11 clause 7 being put,
tlitZr• WILLIAMS said he objected to this clause and
the " 9 and 10, on, which he should take the sense of
Rouse. They, extended the copyright from three
,t nth& to nin-J, and he wished that it should remain as

GLADSTONE said that there was so great a
