INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT . iS THE MATTER OF HESB ? ERiKCIS WOIXASTOS . This insolvent , a merchant , who had traded as " Wbllas < ion and Co ., " at the Cape of Good Hope , and at Great St . Helen ' s , London , applied to be discharged . —The case occn pied the court from the commencement of the sitting until past five o ' clock . The insolvent owed in the aggregate upw ards of £ 24 , 000 , and Hes 3 rs . Frith had obtained a judgment against him for about £ 7 , 000 . The debts owing to the insolvent , in the schedule , were £ 3 , 586 , in addition to which property at the Cape bad been given up , and paid a dividend , the opposing' creditors receiving £ 111 as their
share . It aiipiared that in December , 1819 , Ibe insolvent app lied to the Insolvent Court at the Cape , and was examined , la March following he suddenly left the colony . He c ame to England , and not having a certificate , he was gued on a judgment recovered in the Supreme Court at Cape Town , and was now in custody at the suit of Messrs . Frith . An attempt was made to make him a bankrupt in this conntry , but the adjudication had been annulled . —Mr . Commissioner Law was engaged until the rising of the conrt in the investigation , and the further hearing was adjourned to Tuesday , the 27 th inst . SIOXET .-1 BKBIKG TO OFFICERS OF THE ABUT — IX RE GERMAH
WHEATCBOFI . This insolvent , a Lieutenant in the 6 th ( Enniskillen ) Pragoong , whose case was before the . Court on Saturday , again appeared . —Mr . Nichols opposed the application for discharge on the part of Mr . Salomons . Mr . Lucas appeared for two creditors named Harris and Lazaru 3 . Mr . Hacree opposed for a Mr . Evans . Mr . Cooke , Mr . Dowse , and Mr . Sirgood supported . — The case on the present occasion occupied several hours . Two points were urged in oppo sition , —namely , that the arrest was friendly , and that the petitioi should be dismissed ; and secondly , if the petition was sustained , there should be an adverse judgment , for contracting debt 3 without reasonable or probable expectations of payment . It appeared that the insolvent , who is now only twenty-two , obtained bis
lieutenancy in the course of last year . Ilis pay was £ 104 a year , which was not sufficient for his mess- expenses . Bis dehts were about £ 2 , 500 , arising ( with the exception of one ) on bill transactions , and he ascribed his insolvency to the facilities of getting money on the discount of hills . Whilst he wa 3 stationed with his regiment in Dublin , he received circulars from " agents" of moneylenders , offering him accommodation . A person named Schwabaccasr was one , -who had introduced him to some of the opposing creditors ; and another named O ' Grady , had raised him money from Mr . Evans . Of the nine creditors on the schedule , sis resided in Dublin ; one in Derbyshire , who l » d arrested him ; one in Limerick ( Mr . Evans }; andone in London . The insolvent said that officers in the army received circulars every month from money-lenders or their
agents , offering them advances . He had been charged from sixty per cent , for the advances . Mr . Salomons , a jeweller in Dublin , who opposed , held bills for £ 279 17 s . 6 d ., and the money obtained was only £ 170 . The bills had been renewed , and on each occasion he was charged large rams . Mr . Lazirus was a creditor for £ 133 10 s ., the disconnt of bills , and all he had given was £ 91 16 ? . 9 d . Mr . Harris was a creditor on bills to £ 805 las ., and he had advanced £ 550 , the remainder being discount and charges on renewals . Mr . Evans was a creditor for £ 225 , and the advances were £ 180 . The insolvent ' s father , who resides at "Winkfield Park , Derbyshire , had made him an allowance when he entered the army , but discontinued it , as his son sent back a £ 10 note he had forwarded for his expenses . Recently his father had paid £ 330 to tradesmen for bis son ,
but refused to pay what he termed " Jew debts . " An offer of 5 s . in the pound bad , however , been made , and refused . —The Chief Commissioner gave judgment . Cases like the present were connected with circumstances which were to be deplored . This was the case of a young man , just bursting into life , plunged into debt , and an applicant far his discharge . It was the lamentable facilities given to young men at the universities and in the army that had occasioned the fall of many , but he did not remember to have heard in other cases of an " agent" between the parties seeking out the young men to lend them money . He ( the Chief Commissioner ) , after the evidence given , could not believe that the arrest was a friendly one and the to
as petition was he sustained , the question was , what case had been proved against the insolvent ? Which of the five creditors was entitled to the protection of the court ? There was not one among them who had not contributed to , or occasioned his downfall . It was clear the young man had been Bought out ; that meney had been advanced in the manner described ; and , in his opinion , it was not a case in which they had a claim oa the Conrt for its protection . Hib Honour , after saying that he did not think he was acting contrary to the spirit of the act in ordering the insolvent to he discharged , declared that he was entitled to the benefit of the act , and ordered him to be discharged forthwith . —Some applause followed , which was instantly checked .

The Militia Bill , as we anticipated , is growing more and more unpopular ; the middle classes , true * to theirmonetary instincts , denounce it , on the plea of an increased agitation * the working classes , because they have nblhih g to fight or ! Give them an interest in the country and you need not fear but they will defend it . Numerous meetings have been held in London and the provinces ; the general opinion seems to he that the government know right well that the voluntary system of enrolment would be a failure , which w ould result in the compulsory system , which mi ght enable them " to supply some barrier against the current of the continually increasing and encroaching democratital influence in the nation . " Meetings have been held in various parts of
THE ANTI-MILITIA AGITATION . THE ANTI-MIUTIA AGlTATrnM
the metropolis , also at Bradford , Canterbury , Halifax , Coventry , Leeds , Uxbridge , and numerous other important place * . At a meeting held in Camberwell-hall on Monday night , Mr . Chamerwzow , who proposed the first resolution , remarked that— "This Militia bill was an attempt to establish a military despotism among us , and he objected to it as being opposed to morality , religion , industry , and progress . If Louis Napoleon shou'd invade this country , in addition to other forces , at least 10 , 000 political refugees in this country would take up the musket against him . " A meeting was held in the Great-room , Broad-mead , Bristol , on Wednesday , April 14 th , at which was voted a powerful ' address from the young men of Bristol to the young men of England , calling upon them to resist the proposed militia .
On Wednesday evening a meeting of the inhabiiants of Marylebone was held at the Literary Institution , Edwardstreet , Portman-square , for the purpose of adopting measures to prevent the passing of the Militia Bill . Mr . J . Williams , M . P . , took the chair , and expres = ed his opinion that neither Lord John Russell nor Lord Derby had made oat a case for the bill . In times gone b y the Marvk * bone volunteers bad been the terror of the world and if need arose they would be so again . ( Laughter . ) But they wanted fewer soldiers , and not more , and he trusted they would be able to defeat this , tneasure . No effort of his would be wanting to frustrate the plan , and he said so because he believed that such a force would have a most demoralising effect . ( Cheers . ) ~ 5 Mr . J . Bell moved the first resolution , and scouted the idea that the French intended to cross the Channel to insult
our wives , tocut our throats , and burn our houses . ( Cheers . ) It was not likel y that Louis Napoleon , with his hands full at home , would attack , without provocation , the greatest nation in the world . The fact was that there was some ulterior object in view , and that the real aim was to protect the _ Government against the people . He concluded by moving the following resolution : — That this meeting is of opinion that the enrolment of the militia would be oppressive and injurious especially to the industrious classes , and a heavy tax upon the parochial rates ; that the ad . vantage derivable from such force would not be commensurate with i ? r ni Z . ar ^ llefrom 9 > 'atem 5 and '" at the sum of nearly ^ 15 , 000 , 000 sterling , now annually expended in maintaining rhs national defences , ought to be more than sufficient if proper economy were observed . * *
Mr . PassmobbEdwabds seconded the resolution , and declared the time a most inopportune one for the establishment of the militia system . The country was now thoroughly roused upon the question , and every meeting that had been held was unanimous against the measure . Because Louis Napoleon had succeeded in a coup d ' etat in France , it was supposed that he could achieve something of the kind here . But the coup d etat was the result of a long course of policy , and so any invasion of this country must be the result of a previous preparation . Neither Prussia nor Russia would allow France to break the balance of power in Europe ; but even if they did , was it likel y that what Napoleon the Great could not do with all his military genius , Napoleon thfi Little could accomplish ? ( Cheers . ) The second resolution which was follows : —
Thatthe petition which has been now read be adopted , and signed y ,. e ^ ha iwnan and" others now present , and that it be intrusted to hir Benjamin Hall , M . P ., for presentation to tUellouseof Commons , and that Lord Dudley Stuart , Ji . P ,, be requested to support its prayer , was proposed by Mr . Joseph , and seconded by the Rev . Dr . Burn , the rev . gentleman who has latel y attained some prominence as a Political Reformer . After speeches from Sir B . Hall , Lord D . Stuart , and others , a good deal of confusion and some amusement were caused by a woman , apparently mad , who screamed out an incoherent tirade , in which the words " Militia Bill" were alone distinguishable . The men of Marylebone seemed as much at a loss how to deal with her as they would probabl y find themselves with a division of the French array quartered in their borough . Luckily , however , the fit passed away , and the amendment , having been negatived , and the resolution carried , The proceedings terminated with the usual vote of thanks to the Chairman .

EXTRAORDINARY CAREER OF A LONDON CLERGYMAN . The inhabitants of the district of St . Barnabas , in the parish of St . Luke ' s , Old-street-road , have been painfully excited for some time past by a series of statements , which have resulted in the revocation of the licence of the Rev . Richard Jones Temple by the Bishop of London , and a prohibition against again taking clerical duty in the metropolitan diocese . Richard Jones , alias Risiart Johns , alias Robert K . Jones , alias Richard Jones Temple ( for by all these fictitious names was the identity of his curate mystified ) , commenced his public or ministerial life in December , 1841 , at the Independent Dissenters' School at Blackburn , in Lancashire , which school was subsequentl y merged into a more general college , near Manchester , in 1843 . From that college Richard Jones was publicly expelled for immorality . Shortly after this he changed his name and his
religious principles . He became a baptist ; and as the Rey . Risiart Johns was inducted into the office of pastor of the baptist congregation at "Whitchurch . While holding this position he gave out that he was engaged to a Miss Mary Owen , a young lady at Bangor , who during his residence at Whitchurch became suddenly possessed of £ 18 , 000 bequeathed to her by an uncle in India . One morning he informed some influential members of his congregation that he had dreamed that his betrothed lady had been thrown from her carriage by a runaway accident , and that dreadful and ghastly appearances had told him that the lady was hopelessly injured . On the strength of these representations £ 10 was advanced to him to enable him to go to Wales , a . letter written in Welsh , which none of his people could read , purporting to come from
Jiangor ,. and confirmatory of his dream , havin" been produced . This letter , ho said , informed him that Miss Owen had died from concussion of tbe brain . He started accordingly for Bangor , but proceeded as far as London only , and then returned to Whitchurch some days after , stating that his health had there failed him , and that his physician had told him that to prosecute his journey into Wales would imperil hie life . Not appearing ill on his return , he was taunted at his quiet resignation and submissive apathy under the loss of an heiress of £ 18 , 000 , and doubts arising as to the truthfulness of the story , connected with other circumstances which bad occurred , inquiries were prosecuted , and it was ascertained that no such accident had happened at Banjjor , nor was any such person as Miss Owen known . The reverend gentleman was consequently obli ged to leave Whitchurch , and having become acquainted with a clergyman of the established church , the conversation frequently turned
upon the subject of church and state , and in the oourse of time Mr . Risiart Johns acknowledged the errors he had fallen into in keeping aloof from the established ohurcb . He sought employment within its pale , and after six months' privacy , he reappeared , Richard Pritchard Jones , in the character of an Irish Scripture reader , and was eventually admitted into holy orders by the Bishop of Cashel . In the course of a few months he left Ireland , and on his arrival in England assumed the name of Richard Jones Temple . He then obtained- the curacy of" St . ' Sepulchres , Northampton , where he passed himself off as a distinguished literary character , and'heir to a fortune . Subsequently , by a forged testimonial , he obtained a licence from the Bishop of London to officiate ns curate in the district of St . Barnabas . A detection of the forgery caused such an investigation which led to the discovery of the above detailed facts , and to the revocation of his licence in the metropolitan dioces . ' >¦

brain fever , attributed by his medical attendants to overexcitement . It was reported at the time that he was compelled to be placed under restraint in a public institution . This was untrue . But , melancnoly to state , it is now the faot . Mr . Crowther is an inmate of a private lunatic asylum at Peckham . The fever having subsided , he became in a low and depressed state of mind , and at this time a settled melancholy pervades him , notwithstanding the most eminent physicians have been consulted , and every meansadoi ted to arouae him from his hypoohondriaoal condition . Mr . Crowther was for many years a member of the corps dramatique of Astley ' s , and is muoh esteemed by a large circle of professional aad private friends . Miss Tincent , on the demise of Mr . Osbaldeston , became possessed of the Victoria Theatre , and likewise tho bulk of bis fortune , which was settled on her and her daughter , Miss Beatrice OsbaWeaton , a young lady about ei ghteen independent of which Mins Vincent had realised a handsome competency by her professional exertions .

HOUSE OF LORDS;—The Lord Chakcbhor laid on the table a bill to abolish the office of Master in Chancery Tic explained the means by which he proposed to proviile for the due performance of the duties at present uiacharged by the Musters , and stated that the bill had boon prepared with the assistance of other four judges in equity . Lord CiuNwonTH and Lord Campbell expressed theiiapprobation of the measure , Lord Campbell insisting especially upon a remedy for the abuse by which suitors were sent from one court to another at the caprice of the judges . The bill was then read a first time , and the Mutiny Bill having been read a third time and passed , their lordships adjourned .

The Attorney-General obtained leave to bring in n bill to render it necessary to summon Grand Juries within tbe metropolitan district , and for tho amendment of the criminnl law in other particulars .
East India CoMrANrs Charter . —Mr . Herbies moved the appointment of a Seloct Committee to inquire into the operation of the Act 3 rd and 4 th of Wilihm IV ., 0 . 85 , for the better government of India , and to report their observations . He reminded the house that from tho year 1731 there had been a gradual tendency to the abolition of the exclusive rights and privileges of the East India Company ; that in 1813 private traders were admitted to compote with the Company in the commerce of India , and tha . t in 1 S 33 the Company was not only diverted Of its exclusive rights ef trading , but inhibited from trading at all , whilst the not then passed , the operation of which he now proposed to subject to inquiry , took away from the Company all their territorial rights as proprietors of tho soil , which were made over to the Crownand their commercial assets were
, disposed of in the manner provided by that act . In turn for this immense sacrifice the stock of the Company , amounting to £ 0 000 , 000 , was not to be subject to redemption until 1874 , provided , however , that if , during that forty years , the agency of the Company in the government of India should bewithdrawn from them , they would bo entitled to demand the redemption of their stock at the rate of £ 200 for every £ 100 stock . . The Company also retained the entire patronage of India , which had always belonged to them as incident to their territorial rights , except t-hat they had not the appointment of the Governors and Commanders-in-Chief . On the other hand , the Crown had » the power of revoking all appointments ; but the Company possessed the richt of revoking that of tho Governor-General of Tndia without the consent of tho
Crown . In tho year 1854 the existing system would cease with the act of 1833 , and Parliament had now three courses open to it—first , to suffer the act to expire ; second , to renew the act without further inquiry ; nnd third , to institute tho examination he now suggested before , it came to any final determination . The late government had . resolved to propose the appointment of committees in both houses ; and , after the most mature consideration , the present government had thought this the course most befitting tho importance of the subject . It was natural to inquire , he observed , what had appeared to have been the effect of the changes introduced in 1833 , during the last twenty years , touching the welfare and progress of oar Indian empirenot merely whether the revenues had prospered , but whether the administrationunder the existing management
, had , in other respects , contributed to tho well-being of ( he people , The total gross revpnue had increased from £ 18 407 , 000 in 1834 to £ 24 , 379 , 000 in the present year , showing an augmentation of £ 6 , 000 , 000 in less than twenty years . The charges , howevor , had increased , eo that in the last year there was a deficiency of £ 678 , 000 . How had this occurred ? The wars in which British India had been involved , in Afghanistan , in Scinde . and in the Punjab , had swallowed up no less than £ 36 , 000 , 000 . But when he looked at the Indian debt , he found that the addition had been only £ 20 , 000 , 000 ; it . followed , therefore , that , so buoyant . had been the Indian revenue ? , that they must have furnished £ 16 , 000 , 000 towards the extraordinary war expenditure . It might be said that this large revenue extracted from the country had tended to exhaust its
rp-8 ource 8 . There was no better way of meeting this allegation than b y showing the progress of Indian commerce ; and it appeared that the amount of the exports and imports , and that of the tonnage entered inwards and outwards , had more than doubled in the last twenty years . At no former period , he thought , were the prospects of India so favourable as at the present moment . Mr . Herries then read various details , the results of which showed that the natives of India were largely employed in administrative as well as in judicial offices ; and that the establishments for native eduoation had been greatly augmented . He then reverted to the outlay on account of canals , roads , tanks , and other means of communication , far exceeding , he said , the deficiency of the revenue , which had consequently been absorbed in the permanent improvement of the country . After stating the extent of the patronage distributed bv
tne uourt ot Directors in the last seven years , - ho observed , with reference to the agency exercised by the East India Company in the government of India , that it was a mistake to suppose the Company wore n en mini tnrial functionaries ; they Had the power of objecting , and furnishing , and requiring information to and from the government—who were ultimatel y responsible for all political measures—not only by correspondence , but by confrontation . . He had himseif felt the great advantage arising from this agency , and had no hesitation in saying that for the £ ood government of India it was an agency of infinite importance . It would be the duty of the committee to make tbe most searching inquiry into the expediency of retaining this agency , which had worked well for the last twenty years . If found to bo inexpedient , it would be for the wisdom of parliamant to devise some other system .
Mr . Anstey moved , by way of amendment , in addition to the motion , that an address be presented to her M . ij » sty , praying that Commissioners bo sent into British India , ifi-Btructed to prosecute inquiries and report the evidence , with their observations . He proposed this Commission , because , even if the picture drawn by Mr . Ilerries had been as correct as it was flattering , the inquiry proposed by him could not be complete without information from the natives of India , which was impracticable without local inquiry . They could not consistentl y with the interests of the 110 , 000 of inhabitants of India , nnd the 40 , 000 , 000 of tributaries , and with the interests of tho Crown , whose subjects they were , reconsign for ten or twenty years to a company of merchants , or to a Minister , the absolute authority over the lives and labours of that population , without taking some security beforehand for their good government . The right hon . gentleman stated that the amount of the debt did not
exceed two years' revenue ; and he spoke of that as ah encouraging circumstance , when compared with the great debt of this country ; but there was a fallacy in the analogy . The revenue of this country was a public revenue derived from taxes as distinguished from the revenue of the proprietors of the soil ; but the revenue of India was made up of both branches . To produce it we had taken sixty per cent , of the annual produce of the land , and had placed a tax upon every thing which could by possibility be taxed , from the highest article of luxury and vice to the most indispensable articles of daily life . Yet the revenue so compounded of that enormous empire , with a territory aa large as Europe , infinitely more fertile , and better peopled , had never exceeded in net amount £ 21 , 000 , 000 sterling . Not another farthing could be added to the revenue of India , but the expenditure increased year b y year as the debt increased , consuming the resources of the present and anticipating those of tho future . This was the financial nnsirtnn
which the right hon . gentleman thought so admirable . The people of India , however , thought otherwise . They said that their position was one of hopeless misery—that it had been so since they had been under British rule—and that it was better or worse in proportion as that rule was more or less direct . To the tyranny and robbery of the Mussulmans and MahrattaB we had added our own . According to tho authority of the Eagt India Company themselves , things were at a dead look . There was not a penny that could be taken out of the pockets of the people of India which had not been taken and spent . Salt , that essential to life , had not escaped the pernicious system . The natives had consequently b to
een obliged forego , to a great extent , the use of that article , and thisdepnvation had resulted in the cholera . The first authentic account of the appearance of cholera in India was coincident with the imposition of the salt monopoly by Warren . Hastings . It . had never ceased in that country since , and , by way of retribution , it had even visited our own shores . Ihe honourable gentleman proceeded to denounce the impolicy of the augmentations of territory , and of the wars arising therefrom . He added - The natives ousht to be admitteduto the lushest offices ; there were natives fit for them . India would never be peaceful and contented till she was prosperous , and that would never be until she was governed according to Indian , and not Ei , ron » nn « . « ..
and for Indian , and not European interest Mr . Bailhb differed from Mr . An , te ' y as to the best means of obtaining the required information .

Corporal Braggs knowing that he had done nothing wrong , resisted but , though strong ,, ho was overpowered % nd at last secured by tho arrival of other police-officera . It was . stated that he was laid on his back in the station-house ?' bound with irons , and kept there tho whole of that ni » ht . ?
and ontbe following morning ho was transported , in broad daylight , in full uniform , and wearing irons , to another Station . The eaptain of tbe Firebrand addressed a despatch , to Mr . Scarlett , Secretary of Location , calling to redress , and that a demand to that effect'had been made on the Tuscan government . He wished to know whether ' the Chancellor of the Enchequer was in a position to say that sufficient and suitable reparation had been made for this outrage and , if so , whether tho ri ght hon . gentleman would explain m what that reparation consisted , or whether £ he government were continuing to direct their attention to the subject , and proceeding to take further steps to obtain redress ? r
The CnANCBtLoR of the Excheqdkr said the hon . member was inaccurate in supposing thatan officer in her Majesty ' s service in full uniform had been thus maltreated at Leghorn . a corporal of Marines had been upon leave on shore , had got into some squabble with tho polioo , had been very illtreated , and the Tuscan government had imprisoned the head of the police at Leghorn for eight days . At one and tho same time her Majesty ' s government received information ' of the outrage and of the course pursued by theTuscim government . He begged to inform the noble lord that the punishment of arrest for eieht days was never accepted as sufficient redress by hep Majesty ' s government , and communications had taken place , and wero still continued , oa tho subject of this outrage . The government did not accept that imprisonment as sufficient reparation for the outrage experienced . Lord D . Stuam next referred to the case of Mr . Mathei \ and '
The Chancellor of the Exchequer observed that that case was the subject of active communication , and , therefore , it was quite impossible for him at present to go nto detai ' s respecting it . "The Rev . Mr . BKNKEir . —Mr . Hobsmanmoved "That an humble address be presented to her Majesty , praying that Bhe will be graciously pleased to direct inquiry to be made whether due respect was paid to the decrees of the constitutions and canons ecclesiastical of tho Churoh of England , in the recent institution of Mr . Bennett to ihe vicarage of Frome . " The hon . gentleman entered at great length into a history of the case of Mr . Bennett ; and tha conduct of the Bishop of Bath and Wells , in having instituted Mr . Bennett to the vicarnge of Trome against the wishes and remonstrances of tho inhabitants of the district .
The Chancellor of the Exchequer said that he felt strongly the inconvenienoe of discussing such matters in a popular assembl y . For his own part , he believed there must exist a power of appeal to the Archbishop , and if bo , it was premature to bring the case before parliament ; or if brought before parliament , it should be so brought in a different shape—it should be tho subject of legislation , and not of a mere motion for an address to tho Crown . The right hon . gentleman concluded by moving as an amendment the previous question . Sir II . Tkrnet hoped that Mr . Horsman would not accept the invitation of the Chancellor of tho Exchequer , bufc persevere in his motion .
Sir H . Ingws agreed in the \ iows of tho Chancellor of the Exchequer , and supported the amendment . After speeches from Messrs . Ewart , Hume , Newdegato , ' Sir John Pakington , and Lord John Russell , and someothev members , . ¦ . The house divided , and the numbers were :- For the previous question 100 Against it 80—20 Huso arian Bbtuoees . —Lord D . Stuart moved for copies ot extracts of any communications which have passed between the government of this country and Turkey , and other foreign governments , respecting tho Hungarian and other refugees detained at Kutayah , from the date of the last despatch on this subject , a copy of which had been laid before this house , up to the present time ( in continuation of papers alread y presented to parliament ) . The noble lord explained that those papers related to what had ocourred while the late government was in offico .
Mr . Hume expected , as a matter of course , that the papers would be produced . They related to a subject in which the people of this country were deepl y interested . A large portion of tho community felt that an attempt had been made to violate the laws of nations against those men whose fortunes had been affected by the proceedings of Austria , and large meetings of tho peoplo had urged tho late government to use their influence in giving protection to those men . Lord Pauibbston , as far" as he was concerned , did nofc object ; and Mr . Disraeli , after this statement , not opposing the motion , it was granted . ¦ The Committee on Friendly Societies ( No . 2 ) Bill waB postponed to Tuesday next . The other business having been disposed of , the house adjourned at twenty minutes past nine o ' clock . WEDNESDAY , April 21 .

Conollt , in moving the second reading of the Irish Fisheries Bill , discussed at muoh . length the general policy and character of past legislation upon this subject , especially the act of 1842 , and explained the leading objeots of the bill , which consolidated the existing laws , and introduced provisions adapted to
secure the interests of proprietors without injury to the public , ' ¦ Lord Naas said , this was a quostion of infinite difficulty " , involving a multitude of conflicting interests , and with which it was impossible for a private member to deal satisfactorily , He admitted that the law upon this subject was not in a proper position ; but . the effect of the bill aa it stood would be to infringe tbe rig hts of property , by sweeping away titles guaranteed by parliament . Something , however , ought to be done , and it would be the duty of the government hereafter to endeavour to grapple with the question . In the meanwhile he recommended that the bill , which was open to various objections , should be withdrawn . _ _ .
Mr . Monsell , M . F . Scully , Mr . H . Herbert , Captain Jones , and Sir William . Somerville , concurred in this recommendation ; and , after some remarks by Mr , WhiteBlde and Mr , Frewn , Mr .
