THE JEW QUESTION IN PARLIAMENT.

The interest felt in London in the decision Of
the House Of Lords upon the question of the adj
mission Of Jews to Parliament was not allowed to
subside before the matter was brought before the
public again, in the House Of Commons, by the
attempt Of Mr. SALoMoNs to take his seat under the
existing law, and without taking the oath Of abju-
ration in the prescribed form. A London paper
gives the following report Of proceedings on the
subject: s4 '1sa5ss
In the House Of Commons on the 2lst instant the adjourn
ed debate resumed the question ha MI. Alderman

ed the House, and seated himself between Mr. Ansey and
Mr.. Barring Wall The Speaker repeated the order to the
honorable gentleman to withdraw, which, appears he
fused to do.

that Mr.. Alderman saloons bo ordered 70 withdraw from
the house. [Cheers 4at ss..

vid Saomons, Esq having been returned member for
the borough Of Greenwich, and having taken the oahs
Equed by law in the most binding upon his
cience entitled to take bis seat in this House. CHEERS
On division the majority against the amendment 4s.
Mr. AssrEY then moved adjournment Of the debate,
which Lord John Russell opposed, declaring that the House
must decide whether Mr.. Saomons should withdraw.
Mr. HoBHousE called Alderman SaIomons to state the
course he meant to pursue I a5.44 M F
said he had adopted the course he had not from dsespec to
the House, but in defence Of his own rights and privileges
and of those his constituents who had elected him. Hav
ing said added whatever the decision Of this House
may be- shall willingly abide BY it provided there be just
sufficient force used to make feel that acting under
coercion With these sentiments, shall not further ntrude
myself upon this house, except to say this, that trust and
do hope, the doubtful of the law such it has
been described you BY the eminent lawyers who have ad

of addressing this house. and Of stating to this house and the
country what believe to be my rights and those Of my
situents; what believe to be she duty Of this house,
and what believe this house will refuses what
court refuses to the meanes subject Of the realn-ha Of
hearing him before their final decision" Hear hear
Lord j. RUsssLL, whilst pfaising the temper with which
the honorable gentleman had spoken, regretted that he could
not comply with bis request for full hearing The autho
ry Of the House must be supported He willing, how
ever to postpone the consideration Of the question till to-
morrow.

member for the purpose Of carrying the Speakers orders into
effect
The honorable gentleman retired below the bar.
Mr. b. OsBoRxI asked Lord John Russell would direct

resolution to which the House agreed last year 10 the case Of
Baron chidnamey, that Mr. Salomons is not entitled

they are entitled to take their seats in the House.
