The fight on the franchise Bill may be said to have practically commenced on Monday night when the Marquis of Hartington moved the second reading of. the measure. The first note of opposition came from Lord John Manners, the elderly gentleman who, once upon a time, avowed that he would willingly permit wealth and commerce, laws and learning, to perish if England would only pre■firve her old nobility. This gentleman aa well as others of lesstr note, opposed the bill chiefly on the ground that it should not be proceeded wub until the Government bad laid their scheme of redistribution before Parliament. The chief speakers on behalf of the Ministry were John Bright and the Marquis of Hartington. The two of them declared emphatically in favour of extending the franchise to Ireland and against any reduction in the numerical strength of her representation. None of the Irish members intervened in the debate, as their desire is jto carry the second reading and reach the committee stage ac quickly as possible,— iV«tfw», March 20.
