HC Deb 22 July 1862 vol 168 c701

Order for Second Reading read.

MR. PEACOCKE

hoped the Bill would not be pressed, as more general legislation might be found to be necessary.

SIR GEORGE GREY

said, that the five boroughs with which this Bill dealt stood in a peculiar position as the Reform Act had nominated the polling places, which it would require the authority of Parliament to change.

Bill read 2°, and committed for To-morrow.

House adjourned at Eleven o'clock.
