HC Deb 16 July 1857 vol 146 c1657

Order for Committee read.

MR. J. D. FITZGERALD moved that Mr. Speaker leave the Chair in order to go into Committee upon this Bill.

Motion made and Question proposed, "That Mr. Speaker do now leave the Chair."

MR. VANCE

objected, as he had only just received some Amendments from Dublin.

MR. J. D. FITZGERALD

offered to postpone proceedings on this Bill to another day, if all the orders of hon. Members which followed were also postponed.

MR. GROGAN moved the adjournment of the House.

VISCOUNT PALMERSTON

remarked, that he agreed that it was unreasonable at that hour (one o'clock) to expect the House to go on with opposed Bills; but if they were to sit, and there were to be debates, it was only fair the debates should be on the subjects as they stood in order on the paper.

Motion, by leave, withdrawn.

Main Question put, and negatived.

Committee deferred till To-morrow.
