agteeinetit in the case of Lord Castlereagh had sot
been carried into affect, and on that ground any pro-
ceeding on it was unnecessau-
Mr. LYTTLETON urged the necessity of some
moderate and mild measure in the present circum-
stances, and had trusted, when the Bill was first
brought in, it would have proved a measure of this
nature ; but it had since been so altered and muti-
lated, that he feared it would fill of its effect.

The House then divided—Ayes 74—Noes 97,
Majority against the amendment 23.
A division then, we understand, took place upon the
clause, when there appeared, for it 75, against it 57.
Majority 18.
On our admission into the Gallery we found
Mr.WHITBREAD saying, that he entirely disap-
proved of the Bill, after the alterations which it had
undergone, and although he should not be present at
the third reading, he trusted a majority of the House
would then throw it out.
Mr. CURWEN said, that although many altera-
tions had taken place in the Bill, yet still he wished it
to pass, as the principle would remain acknowledged
in the preamble, and thecountry might entertain better
hopes of success in future.
After a fete words from Mr. W. Smith, Lord Mil-
ton, and Mr. Tierney,
_ _

Mr. ADAM stated that he should have three
amendments to propose on the third reading, which
should render it more effectual.

Mr. PONSONBY said, that only three lines and a
half of the original Bill remained, and he entirely dis-
approved of the Bill as it now stood.
Thz question was then put, that the Bill be engros-
sed, when there were—Ayes 84—Noes 33.—Majority
31. It was•;tben ordered to be read a third time on
Monday next.'

Oa Our admission to the Gallery, we found the
ATTORNEY-GENERAL on his legs, expressing a
desire to withdraw his Seditious Socisties Bill; at the
same time he intimated his intention to ►ntroduce it
again early next Session of Parliament.
After a few observations from the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, Mr. W. Smith, and Lord Folkstone,
the Bill was withdrawn. The House adjourned at
half past two o'clock, till to-morrow (this day.)
