Lord Lennocu (laze General Sir Tuouins C R ow, K.()) was introduced with the accustomed fornialitie:,-w,r,i and t , .tttc his seat. His Lord,hip's supporters were i'a oi l ;;; J :,:,, t u lus (Duke of Alice' tt.r) and Baron HAY (Earl of Kt N NoUL). The Jail Fees Abolition Bill was brought u l , front the Com mons by Mr. Hansa IT, and the Bank Itt•orlction Bill by Mr. BUM:DEN. Both thew Bilis were read a first time. The latter Bill wa3 ordered to be printed on the motion of the Earl of LIVERPOOL, who notifi.Nl his iur , ntion to mote the second reading on Tuesday next, far which day dies Loid ships were ordered to be sommontd. CO RN 11-.1 S. A considerable number and variety of Paitions were presented on this subject, the gre :ter past of which prayed that no alteratian n►ay be made is the Corn Laws. From certain Parishesin the county of Susaer, by the Earl of EGREMONT. From the Borough of Ludgershall, in the county of Wilts, by the E iii cf SHAFTESBURY. From Greenwich, in the county of Kent, by Lord GRENVILLE, who made some rem 2rks on the truth and ability with which this Petition wits drawn it was read at lengt!i. Its prominent prayer seemed to be, with reference to the Bill in its progress through the other House, that the admissible price may be changed by their Lords Sips from B''s. to 70s. and after that a gradual reduction of the prices until brought to its present standard ; and farther than that, if found practicable, that no restriction may be placed on the importation. On the motion fur the Petition being laid on the table, some discussion arose. The Earl of LAUDERDALE abstractedly had no objection to the present receiving of the Petit' m, but its not being in consonance with their Lords!I'll? orders. He believed that no Petition against the Bill in its progress in the Commons had hecn received by their Lordships. The present Petition was not only against that Bill, but one of its specific enact: ments, the rate of 80s.; besides, it went more mi. nutely into its detaiis than any other Petition ; but it was on the ground of form that he pii3cipally ob jected to its present reception. Lord GRENVILLE seemed to differ from his Noble n iend as to the question of form. There were many instances of Petitions being received against projected measures. He thour,tht the present was a very admissible Petition, and it they were to exclude this on the ground assigned, many others should be removed from the table. The Earl of LAUDERDALE replied, the& were several Petitions against the Bill in question, which had been withdrawn on that very account it was not with reference to the arguments urged in the Petition that he objected to it's being received, for he was ready to meet them at any time : but merely, he repeated, for its irregularity. The LORD CHANCELLOR expressed his opi nion that no Petitions against the Bill, in its supposed progress through the Commons, had been received by their Lordships. But the difference would be merely this—the postponement of the Petition fora few days, when, should that Bill pass that House, it may . be regularly received. He could not avoid observing the dangerous tendency of thus noticing in that House what passed in the other, and the Petition pointed out circumstances of alteration in what was alleged to be proposed in that Bill. The true ques tion was, whether such a Petition should be ,sou re. ceived ? He thought himself the proper course would be to postpone it. Lord GRENVILLE spoke in explanation, but observed that in consequence of what had been stated of such a proceeding being against the strict rules of the House; he would withdraw the Petition for that day, but should take tke liberty on the next meeting of their Lordships, to submit it ag.ia fur consi deration. The Earl of LIVERPOOL observed the real question was, whether the Petition should be received now, or wait until the Bill should cuala froin the other House ?—(llear, hear.)—All the Petitions hitherto received on that side, prayed generally that no alteration should be made in the Corn Laws; but this was for the adoption of specific measures; it was therefore one rather of a middle character between these, which 'were either for or against t!::i existing Corn LAW% and could not be said to be exactly either way ; it was also against certain rc%;ulationg, which the Petitioners supposed were in contecipl.ainn in a measure passing through the (Aim. H-use of Parliament. lie trusted there was a general desire 'in the House to receive all Petitions that were re spectfully worded, and conformable to its tales and orders. Lord GRENVILLE then withdrew the Petition. The Noble Lord presented Petitions agaiust any alteration in the Corn Laws— From certain Parishes in the county of Derby. Frwm the Parish of St. John's, Clerkenwell, very numerously signed. From Connmgton, in the county of Chester. From the Corporation of Weavers in the City of Glasgow. Earl STANHOPE said he had several Petitions to present to their Lordships against any alteration A T a General Meeting of the County of WILTS, convened at Salisbury en Wednesday the Bth day of March lal 5, to consider of the propriety of petitioning Parliament against the adoptions of any measure tending to prohibit the im portation of Corn, and also earnestly praying that all those Taxes denominated War Taxes, and especially the Tax called the Pro perty Tax and the Duty upon Malt and upon Beer, may not be renewed under any pretence or modification whatever. Resolved= That political corruption, after having exhausted all the other sources of taxation, has at last proceeded to the outrageous length of attempting to burden with a heavy tax the very bread that we tat, being thereunto urged and encouraged by the false statements o f eerta n rapacious Landowners ; that therefore a Petition be presented to the House of Lords, praying their Lordships to interpose in behalf of this long-insulted and long-suffering nation In such a manner as to prevent the enacting of any law to prohibit or restrain the free Importation of Corn. Resolved—That the following Petition be adopted by this meeting. To the Right Honourable the Lords Spiritual and Temporal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in Parlia ment assembled. The Petition of the Freeholders, Landholders, Tradesmen, Ma favorers, and Inhabitants of the County of Wilts, iu County Meeting assembled, Humbly Slieweth—That your Petitioners, at the moment when they were panned in expecting to enter on the enjoyment .of the blessings usually atteudaot on Peace to which they had bees to long strangers, perceive with the deepest sorrow, th., attempts are making to prolong and perpetuate the sufferings war, by enhancing and upholding the price of Corn. That your Petitioners, seeing in other quarters political con- ruption and private rapacity so firmly Lid resolutely kneed against them, ay with confidence for protection to your Lord ships, and appeal to your noble mindedness, yoor justice, your humanity, against the machinations and violence* of tins unreel- ' ing, this merciless league. Your Petitioners therefore humbly pray, that your Lordships will reject any proposition that may he made to you to entertain any Bill or other measure tending to diminish or rentals the Importation of Corn. And your Petitioners shall ever pray, &e. Resolved—That the Sheriff be requested to sign the Petition, and that copies of it be sent for signatures to the various towns in the county. Resolved—That when signed, the Sheriff do transmit the Peti tion to the Earl Stanhope, and request his Lordship to present the same to the House of Lords. Resolved— flat the Sheriff be requested to sign the Resolu tions, and to publish them in the Salisbury and Winchester Journal, and in two London Morning and two London Evening Newspapers. Resolved—That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to the High Sheriff of the County, fur his readin e ss in calling this Meet ing, and for his impartial conduct in the Chair. tlur , RC.: FYI' F. .0,,•,;(r DR.
