He alluded to a pamphlet published in 1787, on the necessity of inflicting the actual.penal ties of the law ; and for what reason he could not attempt to say, but certainly for two years afterwards more severe punishments were inflicted than at any other period for the same space of time.. This he could not much admire. He concluded by moving the second reading of the Bill. Lord ELLEN BO ROUGH acquitted the Noble Lord of any intention of reflecting on the administra tion of the laws, but felt convinced that the present Bill would not operate any beneficial change, but the reverse. He was willing, however, as far as it rested with him, to consent to those two Bills relating to the robberies in bleaching-grounds being tried by waif of experiment. The Bill passed two years ago re specting privately stealing from the person, had not produced the promised consequences, but had had in jurious effects. As to prosecutors, he had never wit nessed that extreme slackness in their endeavours; on the contrary, they seemed, when once engaged in a prosecution, to take a snit of pride in it, and to feel a kind of spleen at the means of, resistance. Witnesses might be variously inffuenced, independent of the con: sideration of law at present, or as they would be un der these Bills, if enacted—they might be actuated by friendship to the accused party, or other reasons. - As to the Jury, his Lordship had found in his own experience, that when be plainly laid before them the law, and told them the nature of their duty fairly, they did what became them to do. It was not too general, but it was an excusable view of human na ture, that they inclined to rake the offence in as mer ciful a light as possible. As to the case of the steal in; ten pounds, should such a case occur before him, he should coolly desire them to reconsider their ver dict. The discretion of the Judge, be could assure their Lordships, was the mast painful part of the duty the Judge had to perform ; and he should ad. mire and applaud any person who could devise any mode by which the Judge could be freed from such a difficulty. He saw no alternative between the pre sent system of punishments held out in terror to the% guilty, modified by the Judge's discretion, according to the varying shades and degrees of offences, and a' graduated scale of .penalties; as was now proposed. This last he thought visionary in theory, and impos sible in any wholesome practice; absurd, like the sys teni they .had lately read in the Chinese Code. He instanced here a variety of cases and eircumstancet to prove its impracticability, and the superior advan tages off the law and practice ail it stands. The tys tern of Criminal Law had stood the test of a century. 1 . —lt had been hitherto the just boast of this country, that its laws were wise and humanely Aimed," ands they ought not to give way to the ingenious and lea r.... ned speculations of modern philosophy. When some of their laws were framed, there were in Parliament most wise and able lawyers and legislators. In Pars liament there were Lord Somers, Lord Cowper, Lord Hardwicke, and Mr. Lechmere, afterwards -Lord Lechmere, besides many other able men: and their deliberations on those subjects bore all the marks of profound attention. Let not their Lordships le' de ceived on this subject by specious and ingenious ob. set 'rations, but be cautious how they sanctioned alte rations, the consequences of -which they could not foresee. He then took notice of various observations in pamphlets, some of which he t hou g ht foolish, and- I some slanders on the administration of justice. Ever 1 1 since, by his Majesty's favour,nt the instance of those l iwho had recommended him to the high situation he held, and which had also called him to assist in the deliberations of that Haase, he had endeavoured to attend there, and give the humble assistance his prac- . Itical experience had afforded him, on subjects connec ted with his profession. He had done so now, and he must say, from the entire conviction of his mind, that the proposed alterations would be more likely to I do injury than benefit to the-practice of our laws.— , The Noble Lord concluded by moving that the Bill ' be read the second time on that day six months. The Earl of LAUDERDALE supported the Bill. The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that early in lite he had paid considerable attention to the practice tit - the Criminal Law, when he had n) preen tine himself, and he had afterwards the honour of sitting as a Judge in one of the Courts of Corparon and Criminal Law. • In his official capacity he had to submit the cases of criminals to the discretion . of his Stivereign, and he never approached his Sovereign with any cases of that sort, .without having paid to them all the attentiOn'Which it was in his power to bestow. It was impossible - for him to describe thel anxiety which he•often felt in performing this part of his duty. All these circums tances naturally directed his attention to' the law of crimes and punishments and he must say; that he entertained great doubts of the propriety of the present measure, There was a vast variety of shades in the complexion of offences, from the man who entered your house in the dead of night, with crape' over his face, carrying a dark dan-• thorn, with pistols ;, and manacles to bind you if re ! distance was attempted, to the lad of la., who wander ing about the streets of London, was tempted to cut open a pane of glass and "purloina gold seal that *ems exhibited at the windows.

HOUSE OF LORE'S, MAY 24. Their Lordships met at about half-past one, in a Committee of Privileges, and sat until half-past six, on the Berkeley Peerage, when, after the examination of several witnesses and various ob servations from the Attorney and Solicitor-Generals, the ferther considerailon was adjourned till Monday. Several Bills were brought up from the Commons and read the Sot time and Public Bills; among them were the Canad a Rum Importation, the Isle of Man Customs, the Timber Dutie s Re gulation, the Isle of Man Sheep, and the Irish Wine Prixage Abolition Bills. The Earl of LIVERPOOL called the attention of their Lord ships to a vote which had passed in another piste, bestowing on I an individual a portion of the public money, contrary to the opi !don of their Lordships, formerly expressed, respecting the just claims of that individual ; and he int:mated t h at the subject having by hi, Majesty's Ministers, been subteh ted to the consideration of the Prince Regent, his Royal Highness had signified his desire that it should undergo a further Parliamentary discussion before he should give his unction to it. The Earl of RADNOIt expressed his satisfaction at what the Noble Secretary of State had communicated. • The Earl of LAUDERDALE complained of a Breach of Pri vilege which had been committed by some persons in sending circular letters to their Lordships, animadverting on the proceed ings of a Committie of their Lord itips • House. (Here Earl MoßroN moved, that Strangers be ordered to withdraw, which was accordingly done.] • • - . CWIIIIS AL LAWS. The order of the day being read on the.subject of the Criminal Law Amendment 81113 broUght up from the Commons, Lord HOLLAND rose to move the second read. ing of the first of the fide bills, (that respecting the •stealing in a dwelling-honse.) His Lordship, after some prefatory observations, and apologisingfor ing their attention to this subject, after their fatiguit* attendance that day on the case of the Berkeley Peer. atte, and in so thin a House, entered into a brief ie- I view of the origin, object, and history, of the lases which these Bills, one of which was more immedi ately before them, sought to repeal. He argued at some length that they had by no means answered the object they had in view ; that they were framed and passed under peculiar circumstances, but that the stream of experience manifested the necessity of their abrogation. His Lordship then proceeded to shew the inefficacy of the laws as they at present stood, for the prevention of offences , and the st rikin g contradic- i non between them and the practice. Either the prac tice should be assimilated to the law, severe as tlte • law was, or the law to the practice. He contended,, that the certainty of punishment was a better nicale of preventing crime, than the severity of laws which humanity and justice prevented the execution of.— I I That certainty could only be obtained by a lower standard of punishment, since r xpct ienco proved that t, the prosecutor, the witness, the jury, and the judge,! were all influenced and diverted from the strictness i of the law by the existing . statutes. The Jury, from their humanity, had been known, even where a ten-1 pound note had been proved to have been stolen, to . have returned a verdict of stealing below the amount of 40s. The dreadful punishment of death was held out, but the practice shewed 4 . 14 it was seldom in- , flicted. It W 4% %Aida that, notwthitalfding the severe ctonstances of aggravation intending the commission of the offences specified in the Bills, which might render it proper that an example should he made, though undoubtedly there had been but few inst ince' of the sort. Almost the universal opinima of those who were engaged in the administration of criminal justice was against the Bill, and this, adikd to the doubts which existed in his mind as to its practical utility, should induce him to vote against it. Lord ERSKINE confessed, that there were dim culties oa both sides. Suppose that out of 100 persons capitally convicted nadcrany particular class of cr imes, 50 or 60 were executed, he should.say, that th:s affor ded a sufficient proof of the policy of that law whirl enacted the capital punishment. But, on the other hand, suppose that out of 1000 capital convictions, only one person was executed, this afforded a strong presumption that the offence ought not to he capi tal. This was precisely the case w• WI the en ictment which the Bill pr posed to repeal, and therefore thinking that there should be a I.C. le of punishments in some degree proportioned to the nature of off:acts, he should support the Bill. Lord REDESDA LE, and the Earl of LIVER POOL, shortly nnnogNi '11.; Bill. Lord HOLLAND replied; after which a division took place, and the second reading was negat , ved by 27 against 10. Three out of the fire Bills . were thus thrown (iv% and the two remaining Bills with regard to stealing from bleaching grounds in Ireland, and England. were read a second time, and ordered to ibe nomina -1 ted.—Adjourned.

He, therefore, moved bi put of the Committed', it 3 months. Sir ft. PEELE.exprassed great satisfaction at the determination of-the Right Hon, Gentleman. Mr. WHITBREAD expressed his sentiments to the same effect. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, he had seen letters from Lancashire, expressiiig sentiments extremely hostile to this measure ; and, therefore, though he did not himself agree with them, he yielded to their remonstrance's, and was ready to give up the measure. He Wished also to state, that the supplies for the year were already so abundant, that he did not think ii necessary to introduce „r.y new t iz. (Hear, hear.) The Order was then put off for three months. The bill, therefore, is lost. PeN3lt LAWS AMENDMENT DILL. Mr. LOCKHART moveslthe order of the d ir fo! the House going into a Committee upon this B. Kr. MORRIS argued against the priociple of :he bill, which he thought would be most oppre.s; t.• poor, without being a relief to the parishes. He 61,) , 7h: the spirit of the law should rather be to exteni ti..n tolimit the facility of acquiring settlements. NV: .1 it was known that it was necessary to rent rrrro , e , at the yearly value of RIO from one landlord, " ''• tain a settlement, there was great danger Ciat t!.e landlords would not give leases to the piwir of noises to that amount, for fear they might become alkensome on the parish. Mr. LOCKHART said, the object of the law in -favour of the poor, that they might have m,.t.! comfortable habitations. He did not conceive tie landlords would act in the manner the Hon. Geode. 'man supposed. He knew, however, that the Lt.:• men very generally gave less wages tlit in vias noi cessary for the support of the labourers, I•nhec ciliation that part of their support must come tt. ra the patish. Tlie object of the Bill was certainly to provide more for the settled than the casual p the diferent parishes. • iA conversation then ensued, in which Mr.lViistiv, Mi. Hoanaa, and Mr. GIDDY took a part. Sir. S—ROMILLY objected to the Bill, as perre• mating the spirit of the Settlement Laws, and t 11.1: spirit was, to make e ver y p arish conceive that it .1.1.! an interest distinct from every other, and to go e ail •ic• %dal liinrirance totheheneficialemployment The CHANCELLOR of the EXCIII.II2I applauded the system of the Poor Laws.
