DIVISIONS ON THE TEN-HOURS PROPOSITION.
[The Times publishes the following explanation of the changes in the several chief divisions on the two Factory Bills : it is more instruc- tive than the mere list of the last division would be, and has the merit of occupying comparatively little space.] Lord Ashley's proposition was sustained in a division on the 18th March by 179 to 170, giving a majority of 9 in a House comprising, Tellers included, 353. Members. On the 224 of the same month, that decision was confirmed by 186' to 183—a majority of 3, when 373 Members voted. The clause baying a simi- lar object, negatived on Monday last by 297 to 159, was decided by au assem- blage of 460 Members.

• This is a mistake, originating in an error of the official Division-lists. which we cor- rected when it was first made; but the Times repeats it, and obliges Mr. 'LAMES Corms -to claim correction of the error a second time—he never voted with Lord ASHLEY, but always against him.
