§ MR. F. MAULEsaid, that although he found he could not, with any prospect of advantage, attempt to proceed further with this Bill, he was happy to observe that its introduction had not been without good effect, for since the measure had been under the consideration of the House, two noble Lords—the Earl of Cawdor and another—had given sites for places of worship, and he hoped their example would be followed. He now moved that the Order of the Day for the Adjourned Debate 1037 on the Second Reading of the Bill be discharged.
§ SIR J. GRAHAMexpressed his satisfaction at the information communicated by the right hon. Gentleman, who, he thought, exercised a wise discretion in not pressing the Bill under the circumstances. He joined with the right hon. Gentleman in the hope that the example of the two noble Lords to whom he had referred would be imitated, and that the measure would be rendered unnecessary.
§ Order discharged.
§ The several Orders of the Day having been disposed of, the House adjourned at half-past Seven o'clock.
§ [All business was postponed, it being understood that in consequence of the vote on the previous evening the Ministry was at an end.]
