TRINITY HARBOUR BILL.

House or COMMONS, APRIL 29.—This bill to day passed the
committee. The counsel fur the Duke of Bucelench being in-
formed that the bill which his grace's attorney had seen was
not the same which had been amended before the bill went into
committee, withdrew his objections, on a few words being in-
serted, stating that it was not intended that the promoters of
the bill should be empowered to alter the road between New-
haven and Granton. The other opponents of this measure hav-
ing founded an objection on the width of the entrance to the
harbour as laid down on tile plan to meet the objection. This
was strenuously opposed by Sir John Hay and the other mem-
bers opposed to the bill, Sir Edward Codrington supported
the alteration on the plan, whereby the larger vessels in his
majesty's service will be enabled to take advantage of this
great national work without expense to the country. The op-
position was then withdrawn, and the remainder of the clauses
were agreed to, and the bill will now be reported to the house.
The following is a list of the division of the committee on the
preamble of the bill :
For—Mr. Hallvburton, Sir Edward Codrington, Mr. M'Leod,
Mr. Tnlk, Mr. Iforthwiek, Mr. Martin, Mr. Bannerman, Mr.
