AMENDMENTS-COMMONS.

The following are the principal Amendments:-

Mr. GEORGE DIXON on the motion for the Second Reading
moved, "To leave out from the word That' to the end of
the question, in order to add the words 'this House is of
opinion that no measure for the elementary education of the
people will afford a satisfactory or permanent settlement
which leaves the question of religious instruction in schools
supported by public funds and rates to be determined by
local authorities."

Mr. HENRY RICHARD on the motion for going into Com-
mitttee moved, "To leave out from the word 'That' to the
end of the question, in order to add the words 'the grants to
existing denominational schools should not be increased: and
that, in any national system of elementary education, the
attendance should everywhere be compulsory, and the religious
instruction should be supplied by voluntary effort and not out
of public funds."
