IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.
HOUSE OF LORDS, June 30.
RAILWAY AMALGAMATION.
Lord CAMPBELL, in pursuance of notice, wished to
ask the Noble Earl the President of the Board of Trade
whether Government were prepared to adopt some steps
for preventing abuses in railway amalgamation? The
Noble Lord said the practice of amalgamating competing
railways had lately been carried on to an enormous
extent, and in many instances to the great injury of the
public. In some cases these amalgamations were effected
before one of the lines was sanctioned by Parliament,
and he should be glad to know whether some steps could
not be taken by the Legislature for protecting the public
against injury from those amalgamations.
The Earl of DALHOUSIE admitted the importance
of Parliament interfering, to prevent the public from
sustaining injury from their amalgamation, but he thought
the law, as it at present stood, was quite sufficient to
effect that. The two Companies effecting the amalgama-
tion, were compelled to come to Parliament for powers
to sanction the union, and Parliament ought to take that
opportunity of scrutinising, and, if necessary, of cur-
tai.ing the powers proposed to be taken by the promoters
of the amalgamation.
Lord BROUGHAM repudiated the existing practice
of amalgamating new with old railway companies, and
remarked that the amalgamation was not always con-
fined to two railways. Not unfrequently it was a canal
that was units(' with the railway, and in such a case the
canal was invariably filled up, or the protection of the
railway.
After a few words from the Marquis of CLAN-
RICARDE, who presented a petition on the subject,
the matter dropped.
JURORS' BOOKS IN IRELAND.
The LORD CHANCELLOR presented a Bill entitled
an Act for making further regulations for more effec-
tually securing the correctness of the jurors' books in
In land, which was read a first time.
The Bishop of DURHA?,I presented a petition from
his own diocese in favour of the Bill for amending the
law of marriage in England and Scotland.
RAILWAY CLAUSES COSOLIDATION (SCOT-
LAND) BILL.
The Earl of DALHOUSIE moved their Lordships to
adopt the reasons of the House of Commons for striking
out the clause giving compensation under certain
circumstances to road trustees i❑ Scotland. Unless
their Lordships agreed to these reasons the Noble Earl
said the Bill would be lost, and he could not allow stn
important a Bill to drop for the sake of such a clause.
The Duke of RICHMOND complained that the ques-
tion relating to the turnpike trusts of Scotland had not
been really and well discussed in the House of Commons.
There was a vast difference between the road trustees
of Scotland and those of England, and he certainly
thought the former were entitled to the compensation
given to them by the Bill.
The Earl of -KINNOUL said the road trustees of
Scotland had incurred heavy responsibilities for the sake
of the public, and he certainly thought they were just as
much entitled to compensation from a railway company
as the landholders, whose property was required for the
purposes of the proposed railway.
The Duke of MONTROSE agreed that the road.
trustees of Scotland were entitled to compensation, but,
under all the circumstances, he thought it advibable to
pass the Bill without the clause.
Lord CAMPBELL remarked that it would be com-
petent for a committee to introduce a special clause into
a private Bill for giving the road trustees in Scotland
compensation for the injury they might receive from the
course of a proposed railway, and, upon second conside-
rations, he could see no reason why they should not
strike out the clause objected to by the Commons.
After a few words from the Earl of Shaftesbury, the
Earl of Dalhousie, and Lord Brougham, the reasons of
the House of Commons were agreed to.
IRISH BANKING BILL.
The Earl of RIPON moved the second reading of the
Lash Banking Bill, and expressed a wish to have the
discussion on the Bill postponed till Thursday, when he
should move the committal of the Bill.
The Marquis of CLANRICARDE had no objection,
to the course proposed by the Noble Earl. lie entirely
approved of the principle of the Bill, and only differed
with some of its details.
The Bill was then read a second time and ordered Ulf
be committed on Thursday.
LANCASTER AND CARLISLE RAILWAY.
The Duke of RICHMOND brought up the report or
the Committee on this Bill. The report, which was re•
ceived, recommended their Lordships to pass the Bill.
Several Bills lying on the table were then advanced
stage, and their Lordships adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, June 30.
ACADEMICAL EDUCATION (IRELAND) BILL.
Mr. S. O'BRIEN (in continuation)—They went on to
say the Act allowed Roman Catholics to be eligible for
the chairs of geology, moral philolit,phy, and history.
as well as other professorships; and in some of these.
as in geology, he did not see that any point of differ-.
ence could arise between Roman Catholics and Pro-
testants ; but still it was well that they should steure
the students from the contagion of imidelity. Ik had
thus endeavoured to show that the remonstrance made
against the Bill by the Roman Catholic hierarchy of
Ireland was perfectly justifiable, and that it ought to•
receive the consideration of Government. He did nob
think that the Right Hon. Gentleman the Secretary for
the Home Department could be considered the moss
fitting judge or v. hat was necessary for the education a
the Irish people. He could scarcely be thought thee
most able person to decide on the merits of the persens
either faith, who might be candidates for these prof( ssor.
ships. And yet the Right Hon. Gentleman reserved to
himself the power of making these appointtnents: Theo
next clause conferred an additional power, for it ggav®
the body of professors power to appoint tetichpll
in Galway, Cork, and other counties in connexions
with those Universities. But it was said that the Right
Hun. Baronet might, if he saw fit, reconsider this part of
the Act in 1848. Now, with respect to that, he thought
that the power of doing so existed in Parliament, aid
therefore this reservation was perfectly uuneeessary.
He should take that opportunity of saying that a measure
ought to bo brought forward for opening the Queen's
College in Dublin to the Roman Catholics, Why should
