§ LORD J. RUSSELLI stated that I would give notice to-day of what would be the substance and terms of the Amendments I should propose respecting the Franchise Bill for Ireland. The Lords made two Amendments especially, of very great importance. One of them requires that persons claiming to vote for a county should be rated at 15l. annually instead of 8l. as proposed by the Commons; and the other requires that a person entitled to register should himself give notice of his wish to be so registered. Without going into details, I may state that I shall propose that instead of 15l., 12l. be substituted as the rating qualification; and with respect to the second, I intend to propose that this House should disagree to the Lords' Amendment.
