House Of Lords. The Appointment Of Mr. J...
HOUSE OF LORDS . THE APPOINTMENT OF MR . JUSTICE BLACKBURV . Lord Lyndhurst said he wanted to call attention tc a judicial appointment lately made by the nobly and learned lord on the woolsack . ' It had been asked ?> y many who Mr . Justice Blackburn was . He ( Lord Lyndhurst ) was able to answer that question as he knew Mr . Justice Blackburn to be a ¦ very learned person—and one well calculated to add a lustre to tlie bench . He thought the noble , and learned lord deserved great credit for so good an appointment . The Lord Chancellor said he knew nothing whatever of Mr . Justice Blackburn except that which he had observed from the gentleman practising in the court over which he lately had the honour of presiding . VOLUNTEER CORPS . Lord Vivian wished to ask the noble Lord the Under Secretary for War the intention of her Majesty ' s Government with respect to volunteer corps . The Eai * l of Ripox said that the Government had taken into consideration the different oifeTS made by various parties with reference to the formation of volunteer corps , and were highly gratified by the public spirit displayed on this subject . The Governmenthad consented to accept their services on certain conditions ; , namely , that there should be selected in all cases a ground of sufficient range for practice ,, which should be examined by competent officers ; that their arms should be placed in safe custody ; and that the corps should be under practical military discipline . The Government proposed to furnish arms to 25 per cent , of the corps . ' * . [ LEFT SITTING ;]
House Of Commons. Business Of The House....
HOUSE OF COMMONS . BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE . Lord Talmerstox moved that iipon every Thursday during the present sessiou , Government orders of the day should have precedence of notices of motion . He hoped there would be no objection to this motion , a > it was made at a later period of the session than wns usual . lie also suggested that when there was nor private business to occupy the House till half-past 4 o ' clock , that public business should be proceeded with at a quarter p . vat 4 o ' clock .- —Agreed to . Mft . CHARGES GILPIN . On the motion for the adjournment of the house till Monday , Mil . Stanley called the attention of the House to the statement made by Mr . Dennis at a public meeting of t lie electors of Northampton , that an offer had been made to Mr . Gilpin by the agents of the late Government to influence his vote in Parliament ; and called upon the Secretary of the Poor Law Board to communicate tlie letters referred to by him , with the name of the person from whom they originated , to the House . He had r « . 'ad an articln which appeared in a local paper , to the eftVtct that the offer in question was made through the medium of a lady whom Mr . Gilpin became acquainted with at a watering place . He concluded by calling on the lion , member to give up the name of the writer-Mr , Gijlpin said when this subject was brought , forward first , he was asked a question as to a statement which he never made , and a speech he had never made . He stated , at the time he could not trace thti letter to the agents of the Conservative party . ( Hear , bear . ) It was not the first time that ladies connected with a political party had , without authority , exercised themselves in canvassing members . anil constituencies , but the inntter appeared to him so ridiculous that he could not have believed that any member of that House would ask him to give up the name of a lady , and lie felt surprised that a gentleman should ask a question which no gentleman could answer . Mr . Stanley rose to order , as he considered such language not Parliamentary . Mr . Gilpin said that he should have been happy , if tho House wished it , to give full information ns ty tho contents ot the two letters Ho had received ; but he would tell him wore respectfully but , at the same tline , emphaticaljy , tlmt it he miulred him to giyo up tha name of tho leader that ho would not do so . ( Hear , lmav . ) After some further conversation , tho question dropped .
