With respect to , the morals of the people, it was in vain for the House to think of granting money for the support of institutions for the improvement of the lower orders, as Jong . as the system of perjury was carried on which was at pre. sent so common.

The CHANCELLOR a. the EXCHEQUER lid that he had a reason for preasiiic the Commit ment to-night, with which he thought the. Noble Led would concur. At present the consumers were h fact paying the duty, to the tnaaufacturers; who had proportionably raised the price of soap, and who "ere able to retain the whole additional profit for annelves, no Bill having yet passed. With xegard le the arrangement, he confidently believed that it owild meet with the concurrence of the constituents of the Noble Lord, unless in the case of local or par. eFulat objections not yet stated. Mr. HAItVEY said that the manufacturers of I °h soap might be satisfied,' but he doubted if the manufacturers of hard soap were contented with the amtament. The duties ought to be raised propor r timid, on each kind of soap, and then many objec tioas would be removed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER tad, that one of eat propositions in the Committee would be to remove that disparity ; and he had an. exxity to state, that with that amendment the menu- La Sir bi g uren of.

The question of Tytbes underwent some discussion in the House of Commons last night, in consequence of the numerous Petitions which have lately been pre. preying some improvement or modification of the present system. The question, which is one or more importance and difficulty than ,some people , seem to be aware of, was discussed-with much temper. The general feeling seems to be, that the system ern braces evils which it is desirable should be removed but how this may be best accomplished,i, to crMtiolf - ' of great difficulty. That the Tythes helms neltber to the Landlord nor to the Tenant s is:certainly: be; yond controversy: but, on the other hind; their Otro-'! perry should not be continued subject to 4 . vas wising: out of the defects of the system, which hits vasted,that property in others. The Law of Tythes, as it now' operates, tends to Tetard, and in:manycasei to pro:, hibit, all imptovement. Land which. by stature would *yirld a profit barely equal to its l tythe, must remain unimproved.; foe no man mill labour to his= prove a property merely for. the benefit of another party : thus the public be come suterers u an extent hardly to be credited; The Motion submitted by Mr. Newman was to ap point a C•immiuee•to consider. and report oaths et- pediency of substituting money for paythents in kind ; hut the Cuatteituoa of the EXCUSQUAIt moved an Amendment, which was csrried, thit . the Commit tee should report on the expediency of enabling the proprietors of tithes to grant leases under new and specific regulations.—This may lead 'to some ame lioration of the system, but the evil will never be perfectly removed till the value of the tithe'be con verted into a real estate for the maintenance .of the incumbent or of the itnpmpriator. He will then he put upon the same footing with his neighbours, and , mayeither improve his estate or let it lie Waste; per. • would this imply a necessity of his learning the ness of a farmer like many others he would look out for a proper tenant for his land.
