HC Deb 20 July 1857 vol 147 c90

Order for Second Reading read.

MR. BAGWELL

complained that there had been no time to send this Bill to Ireland for consideration.

MR. G. A. HAMILTON

said, the Bill had been introduced at the request of many hon. Members from Ireland. He thought, therefore, the House ought to affirm the principle of the Bill, after which it would be competent for hon. Members to consider whether the measure should be proceeded with this Session.

MR. MACARTNEY

remarked, that he thought the Bill would prove a very useful one.

Bill read 2o, and committed for Friday at Twelve o'clock.
