§ MR. DENTasked, Whether it was the intention of the Government to proceed with this Bill, seeing that it had been postponed so often?
§ LORD ROBERT MONTAGUsaid, he hoped to go on with the Bill; it had been postponed once on account of the illness of the hon. Member for Reading; a second time on account of the absence of the hon. Member for Scarborough who put the Question; a third time, in consequence of the unavoidable absence of the right hon. Member for Oxfordshire; and a fourth time, in consequence of the absence of the hon. and learned Member for Cambridge University, pending his re-election.
