WAS Tye, from many . - of those grounds gif qbjeition which acre urged a . the last. The subject was coftattily one of grant feeling and importance, and the fretting of mina Ewe likely to prove efficient, was actin da wad}, . difficulties. It was an arduouvesk to frime - easy and elfeetive .ssittLetknik which .31?*.y .non • fere with the due cite of patients Iclichineg Undies disease 'of so peculiarly calamitous a nature. W. the Bill now before their Lordships suffered to go to a Committee, and if Noble Lords would assist with their wisdom and exPerience in meliorating and i proving a measure for the * relief of those unha persons who had nothing but the laws of their cou try to protect them, he doubted not but a salut - 'and efficient measure Would be produced. In const deting the subject,'he would beg their Lordships w look to the evidence before them, where they would • seethe most striking, though, at the same time, hot.' rid and disgusting facts set forth. The Noble (nix then read some extracts from the evidence, par licolarly that which respected the Lunatic Asyluml in the county of York, and also one in the county of Wilts, in order to show the kind of treatment to which numbers of the ill-fated beings contemplated by the' Bill were subjected ; and, in one of those places, several deaths bad taken place, respecting which it was not yet ascertained in what manner the unhappy persons had come to their ends. In, one place, • ins or seven-persons had disappeared altogether, with out all the diligence of the Magistrates being able to, ascertain the cause. the situation of pauper lunatic; was peculiarly deplorable ; and, on this head, the evi. deuce of a Noble Lord, a Member of the other Souse, threw considerable light. Their treatment in `Many cases was shocking. The communications re-, telvedfrom Mr. Wright, a most respectable Magistrate of the 'county of Hants, threw considerable light on .this pan of the subject. Whatever objections any Noble Lord might entertain against the 13111 in its ?resent shape might, he repeated, be easily removed in the Committee; and upon the grounds he had stated, he should now move the second reading of the Bill.. The - LORD CHANCELLOR quitted the Wool sack. On th p e ei f ed resent °Cession, be observed, he feli himself 'cow to submit* to the consideration of their Lordships, whether such a Bill as that now be fore them was fit to be reed the second time; and be Conceived he could SAW?. the House that this Bill, instead of benefiting the lituation of these unfortuv state persons, would tend much to prejudice that sithatlcin,"and obviate these benefits which they now jectived from the wise, humane, and careful treat ment which so *Many of them experienced. Them were son* parts or clauses of the. Bill which may well I* niadethe subject of separate diKussion, but many other parts of the Bill, however he must re st)ect the recommendation of the other House of Par liament, were liable, in his mind, to strong and most Aftsurmofintable objections. It was of the utmost anportittite, with a view to the proper care of these nithatspy individuals, and with a view to their re- Covey, that they should be under the surrinten- 1 dtticeof medical men, who had made this branch or medical science the peculiar study of their livek i and'wbo hid all the advantages • that experience iskl thiS respect could confer, and that' the superinten. i delite of physicians who had thus made this disorder their Recaliar study, should not be interfered with. If physicians of this description were to be subjected to the controul of- others, who had not the same .laidwtedge,_it would be impossible for them to carry efeci - which might be -1I10;4 4 7 - ,. w elisteci necessa that a constant inspection and a constant report sheild take place in those caws, If such an attettipt was to be made, he would ask whether any advantages could be hoped, without degree of publicity such as was contemplated bj the Bi ?

As ti the case of persons confined for a short tithe, the visions of the Bill as it now stood appeared to atisliciaimiti prevent disclosure. . Upon those grow *bold submit the propriety of going into Cots %tee; and by voting for the second reading Lordships would not pledge themselves to the Fin tiple, unless the evils complained of in the present Bill could be remedied in the Committee; The House then divided inn the question for_ the Second reading—Contents, 14—Not Contents, 35-> Majority against the Bill, 21. On our re-admission to the House, we found the Marquis of LANSDOWNE On his legs, and express ing his satisfaction 'at the declared intention of the Noble and Learned Lord to bring forward the sub ject early in the course of the next Session. It had certainly become necessary, that the measure should be taken up either wholly, or in part, as it was impos lible the law could long reniain in its present 'shape. was surer CHURCH .RATOI (IRZLAND) BILL. The Bishop of LIMERICK moved that the second twilit Wis Church Rates (Ireland) Bill should be postponed to that Infthree months, with a view to its hitreduction in an amended %sin the course of the next Session. • Rail of DONOUG TIMOR E entered at some length into sii Merits of the Bill, against which he stated a variety of ob *Slobs, and suggested that the best course to adopt neat Session would be to divide the All into a number, haviasfeett a specific object; and to appoint a Committee to inquire into the state of the existing laws on the subject.

Lord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON, as an expla nation of the nature and tendency of his announced motion, thought it incumbent upon him, with the in dulgence of the House, to pffer some necessary obser vations. To the administration of the law, as now experienced in Scotland, particularly to the very im portant introduction of the Jury Court in civil cases, his Lordship was of opinion that every praise was due. The motion which he intended to submit to the House was of a regulating nature, by which there would also be a saving of L 6,000 a-year in the Court of Exchequer alone, if it should be ultimately agreed to. His Lordship referred to the Reports of the Com missioners appointed by Parliament to inquire into the state of the various Courts of Law in Scotland, for the purpose of ascertaining the practice and ad ministration of legal proceedings, and how far it would be compatible with the due exercise of justice to reduce the public expenditure. In one Report from these Commissioners they had recommended the discontinuance of one of the Barons of the Ex chequer. His Lordship therefore hoped, that if new appointments were in contemplation, his Majesty's servants would not proceed without previously con sidering the recommendation of that Report. His Lordship concurred in opinion with the Commissio ners, that one Baron of the Exchequer might be dis continued without the smallest injury to the public. In referring to the Reports of the Commissioners, it was within the recollection of the House, that rive or six were now before Parliament. Indeed they had lain on their table several years without any notice, notwithstanding the vast professions which had been made on the other side of the House. The silence which had been adopted appeared an insult or a mockery to the inquiries of the Commissioners. Belonging more immediately to that part of the kingdom, the con duct of whose Law Courts were under consideration, he hoped the House would excuse him if he spoke with warmth on the occasion. After several other remarks, the Noble Lord concluded by moving in substance—That an humble Address be presented to his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, praying that his Royal Highness would be graciously pleased to order, that there be laid before the House copies of all References to any Judges or Law Officers of the Crown in Scotland of any Reports of the Commissio ners on the Courts of Justice, and answers thereto. Lord CASTLEREAGH had not the smallest ob jection to the motion of the Noble Lord. At the same time he hoped that the House would not infer that there was any disinClination on the part of his Ma jesty's Government to inquire into and remedy any, abuses—(Hear, hear.) Mr. ABERCROMBIE stated, that the Noble Mover-had affirmed, that the Commissioners in one of their Reports had recommended the discontinu ance of one of the Barons of Exchequer What his Noble Friend had said was certainly right ; and it was within the recollection of Gentlemen from Scotland who now heard him, that the same person could not with propriety be a Baron of the Exche quer and at the same time one of a Jury Court. In the person, however, of his Learned Friend (Mr. W. Adam) that objection was over-ruled ; b u t th e new Bill in contemplation was intended to confine a Baron of the Exchequer to his own Court alone, and to pre vent him from officiating in the Jury Court. To re novate and to improve the Court of Exchequer in Scotland, would be rendering the public the most es sential service. Lord BINNING vindicated the r- rt of the ULL ,4NasobalteriLoumrpdhlaoondleadguloporynt,t,htehdint trc:duzo,nit establishment of Trials by Jury in civil cas es ; hear!) His Lordship hoped he would onsidered as arraigning the institutio n of 1 1 ,,, censuring many parts of the Bill. He oh t s appointment of so many new Officers in • render the Establishment a l most a burthen"4't, Public. But the imperfections of the Hill v., operate injuriously to the principle ; they an,„ l the precipitate and hurried manner in %h i d ) i t forced through the Hoti,e. Most of the clas h filled up at midnight, in a very thin Ileuse,,nA or no consideration. It was a mode of ie, which his Lordship could not recollect sa; such dissatisfaction. At the unseasonable hour, tioned, there were scarcely seven or eight Hies present. After some more observations his moved,—" That an humble Address be preser.!. Royal Highness the Prince Regent, prayti.is Royal Highness would be g rac i ous l y pleas, order that the Appointments created by the u Grand Jury Cosh Act be not filled up till a after the commencement of the next Session of liament, or till the Report of the Cornmissiue:: the subject." His Lordship then examined , c clauses of the Bill. The extravagant exseenai the Establishment deserved severe animadversie s Chief Clerk had £6OO, and three or four othe.st each per annum.

The n. of passing it was what demanded his censure. was a warm friend to the institution itself. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL vindicated de In consequence of this new regulation, the hum of the Court would be considerably increased (i, hear!) The Officers now employed, and those s might be in contemplation, were requisite fcr business of the Coat. They 'ere not, however 'numerous as the Noble Lord had mentioned. ' was one Chief Clerk, and three Assistma Cler making in the whole four. It was in co!.templ however, to add three more, another Chief Clerk two Assistants—making seven in all, and not tea, the Noble Lord had stated. To enter fully into oircumstances connected with the Grand Jury C. of Scotland would perhaps detain the House tool( But the House might form some judgment of tent of business in the Court, which was daily creasing, when he assured them that upwards of '.3 cases were no.v on the roll (Hoer, Afar.) From t! manifestation of business, the Officers' were not numerous for the proper. discharge of the duties the Court. There were four Terms, and three sped each Term. There were two Circuits. The Mom would therefore be apt to admit, that such multip: city of businesi required the most active exertion , With regard to the Bill, which had received the es sure, if not condemnation, of the Noble Lord, ever, stage of it was .regularly announced ; an d if t h e Ge: , tlemen of that country (Scotland) did net. :lend ai state their objections, it was no fault of the ham_ of the Bill, of which he (the Solicitor-General) forma a part. It came down from the House of Lords os the 30th of April, and was not read a third time ti; the 12th of May, affording many opportunities toe. 2 Gettlemen of Scotland to propose amendments—. None of them had applied either to him or his Lear ned Colleague (the Attorney-General): it was thee fore passed. It had originated with the House Lords, it being the privilege of their Lordships originate any Bill that was not a Money Bill. There are certain clauses that regarded the Jury Court only. The Learned Gentleman then entered into a minute examination of the tendency of the motion, to which he gave his opposition. Mr. BOSWELL condemned the manner in which the amendments referred to in the motion were intro duced into the Bill, only seven Members being inthe House at the time those amendments were adop ted. Such a course of proceeding he thpught very unbecoming, especially as the addition of £3,500 year was made to the expense originally proposed is the Bill. It could - not surely be deemed fair either towards England or Scotland, to make such an ar rangement, even without affording an opportunity for discussion. With respect to the duties of the Jury Court, the Commissioners, who were also Lords d Session and Justiciary ) should, in his opinion, be re lieved from the performance of those duties by the larons of the Exchequer, who had comparatively ` little business to attend to in their own Court. Honourable Meinber concluded by expressin3 concurrence in the motion. Lord CASTLEREAGH opposed the motion, ccr.• ceiving that it would be a most inconvenient prece to call upon the Crown to arrest the execution an Act of the Legislature, and that too within the Session in which that Act was passed. The idea, indeed, of addressing the Crown to suspend the law upon anonymous authority, until a Report should be received from a particular Commission, appeased to so very inconsistent, and so likely to open a door various irregularities, that he could not possibly accede to the Nimble Lord's motion. Mr. ABERCROMBIE supported the Motion, and contended that it was the indispensable duty of the House, in furtherance of its own object, to accede to' proposal of his Noble Friend. Lord CASTLEREAGH said that no new appoint , 'lean should , be made before neat Session, except by —.n dation of the Court for the dispatch of business. Mr. BROUGHAM thought that if such Were the understanding, his Noble Friend would probatily rot 'think it his duty to press his motion to a division. • objected to the number of Clerks appointed by Bill, whilst the business was so inconsiderable that :night easily be performed, even if it were double, a single one. Lord BINNING contended that no Parliamentary grounds whatever had been laid for the motion of the Noble Lord. He hoped that Noble Lord would with draw it (a sign of assent on the part of Lord A. Hamil ton) and he was glad to find that it would be the case. Mr. J. P.
