§ Order for Consideration, as amended, read.
§ MR. W. H. SMITHasked for a little more time for the consideration of the Bill. Seeing that the Bill only came into the possession of hon. Members yesterday, it was quite impossible that they could give to it the consideration it required. The Bill involved very serious questions affecting the Metropolis, and to-morrow was too early a day to take the Amendments which had been introduced into it into consideration.
§ MR. DODDSsaid, he would fix the Consideration for to-morrow, with the understanding that it should be put off again until Monday.
§ MR. W. H. SMITHsaid, he should certainly have felt bound to oppose the Consideration of the Bill to-morrow.
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (Mr. CHILDERS)said, it would not be taken until Monday.
§ Bill, as amended, to be considered To-morrow.
