§ MR. GORINGsaid, that in consequence of the vote which the House had come to yesterday in favour of issuing the writ for the borough of Cheltenham, he would now move that a new writ he issued for the borough of Horsham. It would be disrespectful to the House to take up its time by arguing the question after the vote of yesterday, and he trusted the House would not refuse to order the immediate issue of the writ.
§ MR. AGLIONBYthought the time had come when the opinion of the House ought to be declared on the Bill of the hon. Member for the Flint boroughs (Sir J. Hanmer). Nothing was more inconvenient and inconsistent than for the House to order the issue of writs to certain boroughs on one day, and to suspend them in other cases on the next.
The House divided:—Ayes 54; Noes 50: Majority 4.
