MR. GLADSTONEI rise, Sir, to make the Motion which stands on the Notice Paper in my name, and which, I believe, I could have made, as a matter of form, on the night on which the Resolutions were reported, if it had not been that I waited for the answer to the Address to the Crown—namely, that leave be given to bring in a Bill to prevent, for a limited time, new appointments in the Church of Ireland, and to restrain, for the same period, in certain respects, the proceedings of the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for Ireland.
§ MR. NEWDEGATEsaid, I think it necessary, Sir, to give you notice that I object to the right hon. Gentleman's proceeding at this hour (7 minutes to 6 o'clock) with a Motion for the introduction of a Bill in pursuance of the reply of Her Majesty to an Address from this House; 233 and, with the permission of the House, I will state my reasons for so objecting.
§ MR. SPEAKERAccording to the rule of the House, if the hon. Member objects to the Motion being brought on at this hour it cannot be proceeded with.
§ House adjourned at five minutes to Six o'clock.
