REFORMING THE LORDS.
LIBERAL BILL READY. ABOLISHING HEREDITARY SYSTEM. * LONDON, June 10. Tn Ministerial circles it is asserted that the resolutions for the reform of the House of Lords are ready, and that they arc certain to be discussed this session. The Second Chamber, it is said, will not contain any vestige of the hereditary principle, and the absolute veto will not be restored. The ••Nation" suggests that the Rouse of Commons should elect the whole or part of the Second Chamber on proportional representation in two batches, so as to reflect the composition of two elected Parliaments instead of one.
