HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY.

A new writ was ordered for the borough of Cheltenham,
in the room of the Hon. Craven Berkeley, whose election
bad been declared void.

The order of the day for the second reading of the Cop-
per and Lead Duties Bill having been read,
Lord-G. BENTINCK, in a speech of details, opposed the
motion, and asked the government whether they were
prepared, for the sake of carrying out a miserable abstract
principle, to run the risk of putting the county of Corn-
wall, the inhabitants of which were as remarkable for
their loyalty and attachment to the crown as they were
for peaceful industry, in the some condition as the people
of Ireland, and that for the purpose of supporting one of
the grossest monopolies that ever existed in this country—
for the support of those who had invested their money in
foreign mines ? The noble lord concluded by moving
that the bill be read a second time that day six months.
Mr. WYLD seconded the amendment.

Mr. NEWDEGATE said that ministers had pressed this
bill in the knowledge that the session was so far advanced,
and the sittings of the house were so prolonged, that all
the independent members were absent, and the arguments
urged against their measures were lost, so that they got
them passed without much difficulty, and without having
the debate brought under the notice of the public. Some
of his constituents in Birmingham had expressed their
approval of the bill, but he would never assist them in
depriving other industrious classes of their occupation,
which the measure would do.

Mr. Mu NTZ opposed the amendment. Unless the cop-
per manufacturers of this country had the raw material as
cheap as the foreigner, it was impossible they could com-
pete with him, or hope long to enjoy the superiority in
smelting which this country possessed at present. He
denied that the smelting trade was a monopoly, for any
person who had adequate capital might engage in it.

- After some further discussion, the house divided, when
the amendment was negatived by a majority of 56, the
numbers 21 to 77, and the bill was read a second time.

HOUSE OF COMMONS

TUESDAY

On the question of the third reading of the Diplomatic
Relations with the Court of Rome bill being put, _ _ _

Mr. NAPIER moved, and Mr. ArTsTE-Cieconded the
amendment, that it be read a third time that day three

months,

After a debate, the original motion was carried by a ma-
jority of 63, the numbers 88 to 25, and the bill was read a
third time and passed. _ _ _

The CHANCELLOR of the ExcnEcatTurc having moved
'fie committal of the Exchequer Bills Bill, a further fi-
nancial debate ensued, Mr. HUME moving, and Mr.
MUNTZ seconding, the amendment that the bill be com-
mitted that day three months.
On a division the original motion was carried by a ma-
jority of 51, the numbers being 66 to 15, and the house
went into committee, when the CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER brought up the appropriation clause, the all
but final act of the session in this house, which was, as a
matter of course, introduced into the bill.

The question of going into committee on the Savings
Banks Bill led to a discussion and a division, the motion
being carried by a majority of 28, the numbers being 49
to 21, and the bill passed through committee, with one
division, on an amendment of Lord G. BENTINCK'S for
exempting England and Scotland from the operation of
the bill, which was negatived by a majority of 19, the
numbers being 11 to 30.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-

WEDNESDAY

BUSINESS OF THE SESSION

On the third reading of the order of the day for the
third reading of the Distilling from Sugar Bill, Mr.
DISRAELI entered upon a resume of the business of the
session, and in an amusing and satirical speech referred
to the various government measures which had failed,
terming them the " bills of mortality," the various finan-
cial explanations of the Chancellor of the Exchequer,
whose career of office he humourously parallelled to the
chivalric one of Don Quixote, and concluded by a disser-
tation on the advantages of party as a necessary element
in conducting the legislation of the country.

Lord J. Russc&replied at some length, showing that
out of 125 bills brought in by the government during the
session 20 only had been abandoned, the 105 remaining
having for the most part become law already, and the
others being expected to pass before the prorogation. He
asserted, however, that the chief business of the govern-
Ment was administrative, and that they had succeeded in
this :was proved by the fact that they had quelled sedition
at home, put down incipient rebellion in Ireland, and in
the midst of all the convulsions of Europe maintained
peace. In conclusion, he expressed his determination to
maintain peace and uphold the institutions of the country.
Mr. HUME, Mr. OSBORNE, and Mr. HUDSON took part
in the discussion, the latter bearing testimony to the ex-
cellent state of the crops in the north.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in explanation
of the mode in which he proposed to raise the required
£2,000,000, said that he would not raise it by loan, but
he would sell stock from time to time as the money was
wanted.
