L.Inch quin's Bill.

Hodie 3a vice lecta est Billa, "An Act to restore to Murrough, alias Morgan, Earl of Insiquin, all his Honours, Manors, Lands, and Tenements, in Ireland, whereof he was in Possession on the 23th of October, 1641, or at any Time since."

And the Question being put, "Whether this Bill shall pass as a Law?"

It was Resolved in the Affirmative.

Message from H. C. with a Bill; and to remind the Lords of others.

A Message was brought from the House of Commons, by the Lord Angier; who brought up the Bill concerning the Marquis of Newcastle, to which they have agreed with their Lordships, with some few Amendments and a Proviso.

2. To put their Lordships in Mind of divers Bills that remain with their Lordships.

Bill for Increase of Navigation and Shipping.

The Earl of Portland reported from the Committee, the Bill concerning the Increasing of Shipping and Navigation of this Kingdom; wherein the Committee have prepared to offer some small Alterations; as, the adding of these Words in the Fourth Line ["the Advice and Consent of"]; and after the Word ["England"] in the 12th Line, leave out ["or England"]; and in the Thirteenth Line, after the Word ["Tweede"], and before the Word ["are"], read ["Ireland or"].

But in regard this Bill is of so great Concernment to the Kingdom, the House thought fitter to pass by these Alterations, rather than to stay the passing of it at this Time; and to dispatch it as it came from the House of Commons.

Hodie 3a vice lecta est Billa, "An Act for the Encouraging and Increasing of Shipping and Navigation."

And the Question being put, "Whether this Bill shall pass as a Law?"

It was Resolved in the Affirmative.

The Alterations and Proviso in the Marquis of Newcastle's Bill were read Thrice, and Agreed to.

Message to H. C. with Bills.

A Message was sent to the House of Commons, by Doctor Bennett and Mr. Glascocke:

To let them know, that their Lordships do agree to the Proviso and Alterations in the Marquis of Newcastle's Bill.

2. To deliver to them the Bill concerning the Lord Insiquin, and desire their Concurrence therein.

Bill for disbanding the Army:

Hodie 2a vice lecta est Billa, "An Act for the Disbanding of the Army and Garrisons of this Kingdom."

ORDERED, That the Consideration of this Bill is committed to a Committee of the whole House, to be taken into Debate presently.

And, to that Purpose, the House was adjourned into a Committee during Pleasure.

The House being resumed;

Heads for a Conference about it.

The Lord Robertes reported from the Committee, some Heads for a Conference with the House of Commons:

"That the Lords observe that the Poll Bill extends to the paying off the Army and Navy; and that this Bill for the Disbanding of the Army limiteth the Money only for the Disbanding of the Army; so as, the Lords conceive, the Money will fall short of their Intentions expressed in the Poll Bill; and therefore propound, that Care may be taken to at- tain the Ends proposed, which cannot be without a further Supply.

"That there is no Provision for the Army's Support beyond Fourteen Days, in case the Morlies come not in for the Disbanding thereof by the same Time appointed; and therefore are of Opinion, That the Commissioners may have further Power, to pay somewhat more to the Army, in case they be not disbanded by the Time limited, to avoid Free Quarter.

"That the Commissioners may have Power to pay off the Two Hospitals of maimed Soldiers."

Which Heads the House Agreed to.

Message to H. C. for this Conference.
