3Ineh time was spent in the 'Reuse 01' Commons On a Into his by Mr. , 11.saa's sere AN, to summon the printer of the Tim.... I;ewspape7 to the • liar of the House of Commons, for the eflitnee of roblisiling; some i remarks of Lord Brougheln. made ie the course of delivering judg- ment in a Scotch appeni ease. Lord Bre:tell:on had animadverted with , say erity on the statement which Mr. Bann,.rman 11:;1 ill stic rospooting Glenlee's incapacity to perform functions : it m AS highly iddeuorous iii Lord Brougham to mak:: :=10 Ii remarks, and the puldica- tion wits a breach of privilege. Mr. Baneerman reed a correspondence -with Lord Brougham, in which the latter declared he would not be ; questioned as to what he said as a judge. But he remembered, that, on the 1st of March 1524, Henry Brougham censured Lord Eldon in

strong terms for attacking the present Speaker of the House of Commons. Sir GEORGE CLERK entered into a long defence and eulogy of Lord Glenlee; whose incapacity he denied. Mr. BANNERMAN asked Sir George, whether be had heard of a Scotch Judge folding his arms and saying grace, when he ought to have passed judgment ? Lord JOHN RUSSELL

and Sir ROBERT PEEL considered the discussion inconvenient, and re- commended Mr. Bannerman tp withdraw his motion ; but censured Lord Brougham. Lord-Advocate MURRAY, Mr. WYNN, and Dr. LUSHINGTON, amidst much noise and confusion, spoke to the same effect. Mot ion withdrawn.

The second reading of the Irish Municipal Bill passed, by a vote of 300 to 39; Sir ROBERT INGLIS having moved an amendment, that it be read a second time that day six months. The debate exhibited a tem- porary split in the Tory party ; Sir ROBERT INGLIS, Mr. DISRAELI, Mr. MAXWELL, and other Tory Members, stoutly opposing the prin- ciple of the measure, and refusing to relax in their opposition to it. Lord STANLEY and Sir RonEwr PEEL endeavoured to prevent the divi- sion; and Sir ROBERT justified the course he took, on the ground that a great party was bound to offer or accept terms of compromise, rather than perpetuate collision between the two branches of the Legislature. He admitted there was a difference among Members on his side of the House ; but assured his opponents that it was not of the kind to benefit them, for on great questions of general policy the Conservatives would all act together. Mr. Straw and Mr. Sergeant JACKSON went with their leaders. The discussion presented no other point of interest.

The Navy Estimates are to be brought forward on Monday.

Referring to the Duke of WELLINGTON'S remarks on the insufficient strength of the Indian Army, Sir JOHN HonnousE said–, He had the satisfaction to give this infiwmation to the House, that our mili- tary force in India was now higher than it had been for several years. In six

.months we should have a considerable augmentation, not less than 24,000 native troops, and the Queen's forces would be 3,000 more, aud others would proceed if there were occasion for their services.

Mr. Thomas DUNCOMBE gave notice that on the first Supply day he should inure— "That this House having upon a former occasion agreed to the following re- solution, viz. That it is the opinion of this House that during Lent no greater restrictions Imola be placed upon theatrical entertainments within the city of Westminster, than are placed upon the like amusements at the same period in every other part of the Metropolis,'—this House learns with regret and sur- prise, that her Majesty's .711inisters have thought fit to interti:re with the wholly

unfettered discretion which the Legislature has been pleased to vest in the Lord Chamberlain with respect to theatrical entertainments in Westminster,

by directing that officer ot her Majesty's Household so to exercise his discre- tionary authority, as to defeat the manifest object of a resolution of the Corn- mons House of Parliament."

[In a correspondence between Mr. Martins, of the Lord Chamber- lain's Office, and Mr. Bunn, of Drury Lane Theatre, published in this

morning's Chronicle, it is stated by Mr. Martins, that "Her Majesty's Ministers have directed that, until fitrther instructions to the contrary are issued, no other than the natal performances of Oratorios can be sanctioned on the Wednesdays and Fridays in Lent."] The House rose at half-past twelve.
