§ Order for Second Reading read.
§ Objection being taken,
§ MR. A. J. BALFOUR (Manchester, E.)said: I hope hon. Gentlemen will withdraw their objections to this Bill, as it is really an important measure, which would settle a vexed question.
§ MR RADCLIFFE COOKE (Hereford)said, he could not withdraw his objection, as the Bill had only been 748 printed and circulated that morning, and contained very serious controversial matters. He must persist in his objection.
§ Second Reading deferred till Thursday.
