§ Order for Consideration, as amended, read.
§ Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Bill be now taken into consideration."—(Mr. Ritchie.)
§ MR. WHALLEYsaid, he would move the adjournment of the debate on the ground that they ought not to proceed with the Bill at that late hour (12.45). It was re-introducing a system of Saints' days into this country, and was an interference with the trade of the Kingdom.

§ MR. E. J. REEDsaid, he took the same view, and should therefore support the Motion.
§ Question put, and agreed to.
§ Debate adjourned till Tuesday next.
