On :he Medea of Lord ELLIDOOROUGR, the adjourn-

then pat, and agreed to.
The LORD CHANCELLOR would now propose a
. lease, which he had be hesitation to say, after what
;ad passed, their Lordships would not adopt. Its object'
as tonal, valid the sales or transfers of iouary
sights fir good and valuable considerations, and to de-
ei.re that the estates or rights to which persona should
e, or should become entitled, if the present Bill bad
never passed, should be deemed to belong to such per-
son as purchased them. If such a clause were not
vlepted much injustice would be done to individuals,
who l snag purchase-11/w reversion of estates twenty or
thirty years ago, bad ever since relied oa their coming
into their possession, sud bad perhaps disposed of them

was a teal sale into a mortgage, one tweeters the pur-
chase loamy, with interest he supposed; to the original
lint±er, bat would be .be found, and even Him were,

r Luse nunid do away the retrospective clause and that

aressconsessencts than the Marriage Act itself as it
tun stood. Marriages would be validated, c:rildren
would be rendered legitimate, but the property taken
sway from-them to revert to some uncle or other rele•
tion who might leave it to bastards of his own ! lie
.tainisi, e 1 that reversionary interests were contingent,
and ho• real interests, as the Noble and Learned Loth
~.:anted the ~, and should vote against the clause.
...the I ORD CHANCELLOR explained, end contend-
that reversions were es good as vested estates. Their
Lore. Ipe would do what they roosidered to be justice,
1 bat he *maid be no party to what he looked upon as an
art of ~ iniquityf
'I he rl of RONSLY clime,
N opposed the as setting

ni. re. l ienity rights against those of possession, and
I r... ~.g titles to families nhilst it would deprive them
or the Ileum of supporting them.
it e LORD CHANCELLOR would venture to say,
1!•:•, ten peers would not pass over ere their Lordships
w:- 11 seriously repeat having adopted such a measure as
the present. •
: n::.I ELLENBOROUGH maintained that the
1 rd t, vhich the clause teas intended to establish were
, int:. :•rtal rights, end of a dishonourable use, and such
al the !so never was intended to protect.
Th.. Karl J 1 HARROW BY was understood to support
the el. lie, and to exi.:cas his intention of dividing the
lieu„ la the iinestitan.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL agreed with !lie Noble
etqwei re; that marriages having once been declared Ta-
b.+, itinividuals should not be allowed afterwards to do
any thier against their validity • but Le wished that
a•net they hart done, and what ;hey had a right to do
before that validity was declared, should be maintained.
The cement clause could only be rejected on the ground
tit ... rouniages were rendered valid air initio and in all
thrii i.esequences.
The loose then divided—
Ilin:.tent, 25 ;—Xon-cuntents, •42;—Majority against
• rile t ,use, 17.
I aicing re-admitted, we found the LORD CHANCEL-
'It ~, !itiog, as we uotiorstood, on the clause for grant-
- , oder:lnky to third persons who should have put.-
- -I :he reversion of an estate in the belief that the
.-e of the original holder was not valid. Ilia
• p expressed his locution of moving two claims
• .: bird reading, and of again taking the sense of
tie on a similar clause to that wrch Lad just
i ected.
.:srl of LIVERPOOL hoped that before his No-
t - .. i Learned Friend took the sense of the House on
.e l 1 me in question, Noble Lords wonld re-consider
.., an. ,f they found that its principle was what they
:ne-iv-d it to be, they would no longer oppose Its adop.
..nir. As to the present clause, it was inconsistent with
:•:c Rude principle of the Bill unless that which had
-..n just rejected, should be allowed to form part of the
• easet ..
L.., la HOLLAND admitted, that it was an exception
.e ri..nro from the principle of the Bill, but it hail only
:me:. ivral eyed ro meet a case of hardship, stated by
'are N. le and Learned Earl on the Woolsack, and to
.sarn, his opposition.
1!.: • AIRD CHANCELLON also thought,after what
, ,rt :. • n done, that the present clause would be ill-
, O•:r...us unless the authors of the measure would agree
I ..d. mu h more than they seemed disposed to do. If
i.... is,. were passed, in *less than a week, all indivi-

. • Marquess of LANSDOWNE conceived that the
'.., * ,Id be better and more ., . co./9.d. consistent if that clause
.ir LLLENBOROIaiII had only introduced .it to

meet the objectious of the Noble and Learned Loid on
tke Woolsack ; bat finding that the feeling of the
house. as well as his own, was against it, he should irlth-
d raw the clause.—Agreed to.
Lord REDLSOALE then proposed a clause to protect
Executors and Trustees against suits and actions, on the
part of IRS declared to be legitimate, for the wanner
inwwMi for disposied of their property, before their
legi

Lord ELLENBOROUUH then moved that the Bill he
read a third time on Tuesday next, and that their Lord-
ships be summoned fur that day.—Ordered.
On the motion of the Marquess of Bows/smug the Re-
turns laid oo the table yesterday from the Board of Ile.
