I 1 • sence of so many Trish Members rendered It inexpedi. ent to appoint the Committee at present, he should give his negative to the tnotn.ei. Mr. SIIAW thought the CommMee ought to be appointed nithout loss of time,' and that it would oc casion tco much delay to wait for -Irish Members coming from their Assizes. Mr. FOSTER said, that all parties were agreed to en tering into the enquiry without delay; but as he had told many of the Irish Members that no important Irish business would come on till after the recess, he theaight it but fair to wait till their return f rom their Assizes, which would probably be about the 9.,1 of April; on which day he wished to move for the ap pointment of a Committee. Sir JOHN NEWPORT stated the names of the Members he had intended to propose for this Com mittee. Among which were the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Foster, Mr. Punsonby, Lord Castle reagh, Messis. Vansitrart, Bankes, and Vim. Smith. The House then divided—For the previous ques tion, 71 Against it, 44.—Majority against' Sir J. Newpot is Motion '27. THE PRINTER'S mt. Mr. HENRY MARTIN rose, pursuant to notice which he had given a few days before, He remind ed them he had then stated it to be his intention to 'move for leave to bring in a Bill to explain and amend an Act passed in the 99th of his present Majesty, which at present was felt very heavily by Printers, Publishers, and others, connected with the Press of j this country. He hoped the motion he intended to make would meet with no opposition, when his mo tives were known, and his intentions fully understood by the House. The Act in question was passed at a period when certain societies were in existence against which it was thought necessary to guard, by pre- I venting their privately disseminating seditious writ ings. The Act appe ared to have b een passed in a moment of hurry, as it went not merely to punish the , guilty, but all connected with the art of printing. All persons acting as Printers, Booksellers, &c. were ob liged by this /Set to give, not only their names and residence, but the minutest particulars relative to the place of their abode. A distinct penalty was incurred by every single hand-bill or pamphlet in which the most insignificant word relating thereto was omitted. However uninteresting such omission might be proved to be, no discretion was given to the Magistrates to' decide, according to the peculiar merits of the case, but they were directed to convict the printer and cast him in the penalty of E2O, for every hand-bill or pamphlet so published, and those parties who, in any c a se, might think themselves aggrieved by such de cisions, were not enabled to make an appeal from them at the Quarter Sessions. This, he thought, was felt to be the cause of evils which had not been anti cipated by the House, at the time of passing the Act. He did not mean to move that it should. be repealed __ cot. altogether, and he should ground the motion he intend- a Bill to eiplain and amend part of tht 39th . edto submit to the House torexplaining and amending present Meje , ity. , the said Act, on a statement of certain instances which Lord FOLICESTONE seconded the motian. had come to his knowledge, in which unfortunate per- The CHANCELLOR of the EXCI-tI.QUER sons hadsufferedgreat inconvenieneies,through the pro- would not oppose the motion, but he thoUgle it rather visions of the Act being such as he had described.

The Honourable tcctly easy to be understood. Gentleman here read a passage from the evidence Mr. H. SMITH thought the Act car;led a great which had been given, in order to shew the House deal of individual grievance. He would use the ar with what views such informations were preferred, gument ad homi.iern, and say, he thought reeny Mem and also to let them see bow some persons had been bers of that House would lose threaourihs of their entrapped into a violation of the law. From this it fortunes it they were called upon to pay all the penal appeared that certain persons, knowing there were ties they had incurred. He considered himself as ad. many numbers of an edition of the works of Cicero, dressing men, in all probability, who iseued many commonly known by the name of the " Elzivir printed receipts for rent.

One printer, however, more alive than relief to those who had been injured by the operation the others to the provisions of the Act, had pat of the Act. his name and place of abode on the title-pages he Mr. D. GIDDY was of opinion some distinction had thus been employed to print. This would not ought to he made between papers and pamphlets of a Jo, as it was obvious such title-pages were worse pernicious tendency, and those of a different descrip than useless, as they at once went to prove the work don. was not what it purported to be, the " Elzivir Edi- Mr. W.

The others who were applied to in this man- the Act might not be so easily known by thnse whom nee, did not act with the same precaution, and in con- they might affect, as the Chancellor of the Exchequer sequence penalties amounting to more than £101),000 seemed to think ; as he had just had a paper put into were incurred.

What was the consequence of all this ? the Act in a thrtisand different ways. The Mag;serate, not being impowered by the Act to Mr. MARTIN made a further observation on the exerose his own discretion in the case, and the party i responsibility of the pamphlet printer over that of a not being able to appeal at the Quarter Sessions, the newspaper. The former, in addition to the penalties former to protect the individual, had himself been ; liable to be incurred by failing to observe the regula obliged to violate the law.

Another person, who had been anxious Olt NiAl .16 EX-OFFICIO. to conform to the provisions of the Act of Parliament, I LOrd FOLKESTONE called the attention of the had incurred a penalty by the omission of a single word. j House, and said, he had found considerable difficelty Proposals had been issued respecting the p u blication in selecting a day on which he could* bring forward of some new military work.

Shortly atter, as the Act re- , the most considerable inconveniences would at all ouired the name of the town as well as the street, the times be found to arise. The Solicitor-General having printer haying issued Irons his press a thousand copies expressed a wish to be present at the discussion, and of the article so question, was called up to Guilditall , as he was obliged to go the Welch Circuit on an early to shew cause why he -should not pay the sum of day the next week, lie ( Lord Folkestone) was desirous !CAW° far penaltienso incurred. Thesefactshe really ' of obliging him, and to that end would bring for thought, were almost enough to make it felt by every ward his motion on Friday, provided the Right Ho one, that some altgatiou oh the act was necessary. It nourable Gentleman (the Chancellor of the Exche was true it might Wssed the evilshe complained of had goer) would have the precedence of the Orders of the been subsequently counteracted, in some degree, by its Day, and suffer his Notice to come on first. If the Act, passed to Indiminify persons suffering under the Right Honourable Gentleman would not agree to operation of iv, ; but was this a system to be this proposition, his Lordship declared his intention praised, whi&callleti for indemnity for those who had to bring the subject before the House on Thursday violated the law ? Was it QM better to amend the act week. than thus to come forward from time to time with a The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER Bill of Indemnity ? He would now state the case of an said, that tile consideration erf the Commercial Credit individual who had been convicted of violating this Bill would come on on Thursday ; in duty to the law,and castin penaltiesarnountingto £20,000, whose Public, therefore, he could not agree with the pro conduct had been as little objectionable as either of posal of the Noble Lord. He saw no objection, Iww. those he • had already mentioned. Some address ever, to the question being brought forward then. had been published at Southampton by the baker s of Lord FOLKESTONE observed, that the Right that place to the people of the town. - The Magistrates Honourable Gentleman must admit the impropriety there, as in London, regulate the price of bread, on of calling the attentioa, of the House to so important ill/meeting the proper. returns, ke. They had a subject at so late an hour of the night; he was us- • dam' so at one occasion ; when the Bakers finding der the necessity ' therefore, of defusing the subject, - that in consequence of their decision, they most lose on each sack of flour the sum of Is. sd. thought pro per publicly tti state the time, and submitted ale h.tra ships of which they complained to the consiaera tion of the town. A person of the name of Cun ningham, who is a printer, was then absent fmm Southampton, having gone to Portsmouth ; 1000 of these addresses were wanting immediately, as it was of the highest importance to the bakers that their case should be made public as soon as possible. They i were accordingly printed off, and information was immediately given that the provisions of the Act were in some measure accidentally violated ; and, ih consequence, the printer, though absent at the time, was convicted, and cast 5t20,000 in penalties. The Magistrate had no power of discretion to modify the sentekce, and all he could do was to promise to write to the Secretary °of State for the Home Department ; ' which, he understood, had since been done, and the printer relieved. In soch a case, however, though the individual might never be called upon by Govern ment for the penalties thus incurred, the evil did not lappear to be done away. It was to be remembered that by the of the Act the informer was , provisions entitled to a moiety of the penalties recovered, and though the man might never be called upon for what he had been sentenced to pay to the King, he ques tioned if the informer could not commence an ac tion for his moiety, and (in such a case) the unfor- • tunate individual might be doomed to rot in gaol the remainder of his days. He could state fifty other cases in which persons might be cast in heavy pe nalties, where no such thing as the Act could be proved. He had seen papers relating to hospital vacancies, containing a list of the directors, Etc.— Articles relating to parties in that House—papers where the name was pi inted on one side, when, ac cording to the provisions of the Act, it should be printed on the other ; and others, in which omissions appeared of the most trifling nature, which subjected those connected with the press to severe penalties.— He hoped the House would feel the propriety of that which he suggested, and, without going at all into the original Act, give the Magistiates a discretionary power, or the parties who felt aggrieved a right to appeal at the Quarter Sessions. It was not hislnten tion to go beyond these two points, but in one instance. The Prriprietors, Printers, and Publishers of News papers were at present on a better footing than the Printers of Handbills and Pamphlets, as the whole of their impression made but one offence. It a libel were printed to-morrow, in any newspaper, and thousand numbers of it circulated, the whole would constitute but one offence. He did not see why they should have this advantage over the printers of pam phlets and hand-bills, and he should therefore pro pose some arrangement for placing those last men tioned on the same footing in that respect as the for mer. He concluded by moving for leave to bring in '' of his WIMP • T"'APrillgwr ‘ _ , $ .. . . .

Omni SERVANTS. Mr. R.. SHAW (ot Dublin) moved, pursuant to his notice, for leave to bring in a Bill to extend the provisions of the Embezzlement Act, so far as it related to the protection of swim against the acts j Of their servants, in TrAlend. Sir S. ROMILLY 4 did not rise to oppose the prin. ciple of the motion of the Honourable Gentleman, but conceived that the eitension of this Act to Ireland . would be attended with considerable inconveniencics. He wished to intimate to the Hon. Gentleman, that' those Gentlemen who had originally introduced this I measure had felt the inconveniencies result from it, for by that Act, the civil debt from t..e servant to die master was completely extinguished : for, should any servant in the employ of his master become a bank rupt, the latter was excluded from receiving any be nefit tinder the commission tf bankruptcy, because the civil debt was merged in the capital felony. He further suggested the propriety of making the offence a mere nitsdenteanour, punishable by transportation for seven years, instead of remaining, as it now was, a capital felony. 1 The ATTORNEY-GENERAL expressed him 'self adverse to the Bill in the shape proposed by the Hop. Gentleman, but conceived that it would be *sore expedient to bring in a Bill to alter and amend the present Act. • Mr..SHAW said, that he had not been aware of those objections to the measure lie had proposed ; it had been recommended to his notice by some emi nent lawyers in Ireland, in consequence of the defects which were found in the law as it at present existed in that part of the United Kingdom. He strongly felt the propriety of the suggestions of the Honoura-1 ble Gentlemen, and with leave of the House would withdraw his motion for the purpose of moving for, leave to bring in a Bill to alter and amend the pre- 1 sent Act. Sir S. ROMILLY stated, that considerable incen venience had been experienced to arise from the Eng lish Bill upon this subject, and it would be better to make the crime a misdemeanour instead of a felony,. Where a master became bankrupt, it was found im possible, by the present law, to recover the property. proved to have been embezzled by his clerks or ser-1 vants, for the benefit of his creditors. MISCELLANSOCS. Upon the suggestion of Sir 'MIN NIMPORT, Mr. Wellesley Pole agreed to the postponement of the Irish Estimates to Mon day, instead of Friday.
