§ Order for Committee read.
§ Motion made, and Question proposed, "That Mr. Speaker do now leave the Chair."
§ * MR. W. H. SMITHI think, Sir, I am at liberty to express a hope that the discussion on to going into Committee of Supply to-night may be so far restricted as to permit the House considering in Committee the Supplementary Estimates. I believe that it is the wish of hon. gentlemen opposite that the Vote on Account should be taken on Monday next, but it is impossible to do that unless the Supplementary Estimates are first disposed of. I appeal, therefore, to the House to endeavour as far as possible to give the facilities which are necessary in order to enable us to comply with the wishes of hon. Gentlemen.
