were no ebnllitioDi of temper, no nnkind

London, July 0.—In the House of
Commons last night tho Government
agreed to ths motion ot Mr. Henry Cnap-
lin,conservative member for Lincolnshire,
for the appointment ot a royal commis-
s.on to inquire into tho causes of agri
cultural depression, and how far tney
were created by or are remedial by legis
lation. Tho latter caused great debate.
All sides agreed tbat the great cause of
the depression waj American competi
tion. Chaplin, iu his opening speech,
said he regraded free trade as a question
definitely settled, but he ciuld not shut
die eyes to the failure of many
of the predictions of the advocates
of freo trade. Ho did not propose
a remedy.now, but only asked for an en
quiry. Ha pointed out that the future
late of British agrioulcure was dependent
upon the ooat of prodnoiiou iu America.
If the ooat of importation fell below the
oost of prodnotion at home, the ruin ot
British ugrionlture was not far distant.
The Liberals, saoh as Brassey, MaoDnff
and Doff, blamed the British land system
and gams laws for the depression.
Their arguments were summed np in a
spjooh by Bright, who warned the land
owners that tbe competition of ths United
States woald go on increasing, and the
only way of meeting it was to get rid of
tho sinpid and mischievous ltgiilalion
r gnla ing the tenure and transfer of land.
MacDoor and Bentinck advocated protec
tive measures, but both the Marquis of
Uarlioglon'and the Government a* rep
resented by Visoount Sandon, Conserva
tive member for Liverpool, and Sir Staf
ford Nnrthuote, Chancellor ot the Ex-
ctaqaer, deolared that no oanse had been
shown for such measure*, whio'x oertainly
wonld never be sanctioned. The Mar
