§ Lord Althorprose to postpone the Bill for prohibiting the growth of Tobacco in Ireland, till after the recess. His Lordship fixed Thursday, February 3rd, for discussing the measure.
Mr. Warburtonexpressed his regret that the noble Lord should postpone the Bill. It appeared by the evidence before the Committee, that there was no reason whatever for allowing the growth of tobacco in Ireland, and he hoped, therefore, that the Bill would have been passed one stage that evening.
§ Lord Althorpobserved, that he had fixed it for the first day the House would meet after the recess. He had no intention whatever of giving up the Bill.
§ The Speaker,who informed him, that the Bill was withdrawn, and that there was no question before the House.
