§ Mr. Ewartsaid, that he had been ready and anxious to bring forward his motion, "For a yearly report by a Minister of the Crown on the subject of education." The right hon. Baronet (Sir J. Graham) had represented to him that such a course might embarrass the general question of education. Though he (Mr. Ewart) had opposed, and should continue strongly to oppose (if they remained unaltered), the principles of the educational clauses of the right hon. Baronet's Factory Bill, he would not take any unfair advantage of the right hon. Baronet; and he felt certain that, whenever he brought forward his own motion again, the right hon. Baronet would meet him fairly, and rather facilitate than embarrass its discussion. Further representations had been made to him by Gentlemen disposed to support his measure, that it would come on with more advantage at a later period of the Session. He thought it neither prudent nor proper, in general, to oppose the prevailing feeling of the House, still less the feeling of those who were favourable to a measure. He considered that this measure would gain, rather than lose, by time and consideration. He should, therefore, postpone it till a later period of the Session; but he should certainly bring it forward before the Session closed.
