§ Mr. Lambtonbegged the indulgence of the House for a few minutes. A motion of his, which he was pledged to his consti- 1319 tuents to bring forward, and than which none of greater importance could occupy the attention of parliament, stood for Tuesday next. He felt, however, from the circumstances which had recently occurred, that it was impossible for members to enter so fully as he could wish on the consideration of the subject in question, while engaged as they would be for some time to come. On these grounds he begged to withdraw his notice of motion for the present, and defer it until next session.
