The bill for facilitating the administration of justice in the
Court of Chancery, the drainage in towns bill, the borough
improvement and other bills, which the sudden close of the
last session of parlinmentcaused to be dropped, were brought
in by the Lotto ( RA.NCELLOR., and severally read a first
time.

The tw•o last-mentioned bills were read a second time and
committed, and ordered to be read a third time on Monday.
Their lordships then adjourned until Monday.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—FRIDAY.
The adjourned debate was resumed by Mr. MILNE, who
contended that ministers had most impertinently and inju-
diciously brought forward measures in their budget which
they must have known they would not be able to carry. In
supporting the amendment he would observe that the diffe-
rence between the present ministers and those who were
likely to succeed them would be that the latter would only
propose measures which they knew they had power to carry,
into effect.

Mr• RENNIE adverted to the expensive modes of agricul-
ture resorted to in many parts of the kingdom, and con-
tended that it was unjust to compel the people to buy corn
so expensively raised, when, but for the laws which it was

proposed to repeal, they might buy the article much cheaper.
Mr. WALLACE was opposed to any article on corn, and
said in his opinion a much greater proportion of the burden
upon the nationol debt should be thrown upon the land than
it was at present subjected to. He would support the
address.

Mr. HINDLEY also supported the addiess, and contended
that the monopoly of corn was only upheld because those
who profited by it were those who likewise possessed the
monopoly of power.
Mr. WIGNEY thought the real question was as to which
party should govern, and as they all knew that sooner or
later Sir R. Peel must accede to office, it would be' etter for
the country that he should at once walk across the floor of
the house, when the discussion of those important measures
which were so interesting to the country might be entered
upon.

Mr. H AWES, in strong terms, commented upon this attack
made by. the hon. member for" Brighton on his political
friends, and subsequently attempted to grapple with the ar-
guments and calculations used by Mr. Goulburn on the pre-
vious evening. In reference to the fact that Sir R. Peel
would have two whips for his colleagues in his administra-
tion he declared that he would prefer having Sir R. Peel for
a dictator, rather than sec him surrounded by such colleagues.
If the right hon. baronet should conic into power, as it was
assumed he would throughout that debate, if he legislated
upon general, rather than upon sectional and personal inter-
ests, he (Mr. Hawes) would offer to him no factious opposi-
tion. He must say, however, that he feared the right hon.
baronet would pursue a course which would compel hint to
rank himself in the opposition to his administration. •

Captain PoLumr, supported the amendment, and stated
his belief that Sir R. Peel would sooner have submitted to
have his right hand cut off than remain- in office one day after
a vote of that house intimating that the right hon. baronet
did not possess its confidence.

Mr. M. J. O'CoNNELL supported the address, and ex-
pressed a hope that, should the conservatives come into
power, Ireland, at all events, might have nothing to do with
the noble member for North Lancashire.

Mr. CHRISTMAS, in supporting the amendment, treated
the question before the house as being one purely of con-
fidence.

Mr. VILLIERS attributed the success of the conservatives
