. -~ 1991 •••~J kW. lIMII•RW,,,•Mw• • the attention which it deserves, and therefore I should not have troubleflour 'Lordship(' with any observa tions in support of it, if I did not feel that this was an occasion on which any man may well be permitted to addre s yolir Lordship:. di; this the more readily on _ the present occasion, because feeling that I have not the habit of taking part in your discussions, I will not in ferropt the progress-of the debate on the Bill to which ..the Petiti mem refer, if it should come into this House. It is now twenty-five years since this measure was first brow ht foto disetission. I cannot forget with what events the discussion was At that time connected. It was connect-d u ith the most serious illness of one now . no mcre ; it %vs: connected also with the temporary re .,invai of one of the ablest, wisest, and honestest Mi -I,i,ters that this country ever had. From that time, hen I gave my first vote on this question, to the present, 1 hase never seen any reason to regret or to change the line tkhich I then t iok. I have every year seen mor , reason to be sati.&d with my decision. When the questio ) come: segularly before your Lordships, it will be discussed much more fully and ably than I can do it. But there are two or three subjects on which I am anxious to touch ; one is, that you place the Church ,of England in s situation in which no other. Church in the world is placed ; the Roman Catholic will not allow the Church of Eogland or Parliament to intetfute with his Church, and yet he requires you to allow him to in - teriere with your Church, and to legislate for it. There is another subje:t still more delicate, on - which I cannot • however help saying a feat w.sr.ls. I speak (I beg to . be understood) only as an individu 41 : I desite - not to be understood as spelking for anybody else: but consider, my L• rds, the situati in in which you place the Sove reign. By the Coronation Oath, the Sovereign is bound to protect the Cho. ch established, in her doctrine, dis cipline, and rghts, inviolate. An Act of Parliament may release every future Sovereign, and other men, from this oath, or from any other oath to be taken; bat it cannot release an indivUual who has already taken it. • speak, I repeat it again, as an individual; but I entreat the House to consider the situation in which the Sovereign is thusidaced. I feel very strongly on this whole subject; I cannot forget the deep interest which was taken upon it by one now no more; and the long and unhappy illness in which—(Here his Royal Highness was sensibly affected).—l have been brought up horn my early years in these principles; and from the time when I began to reason for myself, I have entertained them from convistion ; and in every situation in which I may be placed, I will maintain them, so help me Gon."—The Petition was laid on the table. The Earl of HARROWBY presented a Petition from the Ca tholics of the Midland Counties in favour of Catholic Emancipation.

The Petitioners were deputed front . the Woollen Weavers of Roehdale.--Referred to the Coattnittee. Sir P. M USG RA VE presented a Petition from Carlisle, pray ing a revision of the Corn Laws.

LITTLETON rose to move the Order of the Day for the second reading of the above Bill, foe the purpose of postponing it until be bad made some altesations which be was desirous should be made. The Bill would be ready for the second reading to morrow, and be hoped that no lion. Member would object to the postponement. Mr PLUNKETT said, that his Hen. Friend had done him the honour to consult him upon the alterations vt hich had occurred to his mind as being proper to be made in the Bill; and without wishing to say anything that would (haw on discussion, the alterations appeared to him calculated to obviate some of the objections which bad been brought against it. At the same time he must say, that it would be unfair that the Order of the Day dwell he postponed if the other,relating to the Honourable Baronet's all s ehodd be remanded with. Many Gentlemen supported one Bill eesaillienallr =te t passing of the other; and they would be place ii a situation if called upon to vote for going into a Consmittooto.oleiL He therefore hoped, that both orders would be read, for the Fora pose of postponement. . Mt. DAWSON said, that if the second reading of his Honourable Friend's bill would affect the support os 'the opposition to the other, it ought to be postponed, in order that he might render it as perfect as be could. But be hoped the day would be fixed upon when the discussion was to be taken. Mr. GHAT'I'AN expressed his wish that the Hon. Member would state the nature of the intended alterations. Mr. LIT ILETON said he should have difficulty in stating the exact alcetations ; that ought to be made w th preci-ion ; buttO could say generally, that the al teration was proposed with a view to preserve existing interests. The Order of the Day was then postponed till tomorrow. • Sit 1:: nuauErr said, that his anxiety for the suc cess of the wrest measure would lead hint to go great lengths indeed for insuring it. tie then moved the Order of the Day for the Committal of the Catholics Relief Bill, which was read, and postponed till to-morrow.

WILSON rose top sent a -Petition from the Merchants, Traders, Shipown s, and others of the City of London, signed by above of that respectable body. The Petition related to a subject no less impor tant than the Laws relating to the trade in Foreign Cole in this country. It was the result of one of the most numerous and respectable public meetings that be had ever attended, and the Petition was so unani mously agreed to , _ that only one hand was held up against it: The . etitioners stated that the high price of provisions in this country, caused by the present er roneous system of the Corn Laws, tended to lessen the value of labour, to retard the progress of wealth, and to create a general injurious effect upon the Constitu tion of the country. They further complained that the fluctuations growing out of the system were an evil almost as great •as the highest prices -which it ever created. Considering all the bearings of the question, and particulafiy that the present laws were liable to gross abuses, by which means their intention was not fulfilled, the Petitioners thought themselves justified in appro..ching the House and humbly praying that -onte l change may be made. In their opinion a fixed duty would be the 'best mode that could be adopted for se. curing the intetests of all parties. If such an orange. ment would not bring occasional high prices to the landed interest, it would ensure them a more steady, and eventually a more advantageous remuneration. No person was inclined to Stoat the subject with greater delicacy than he was, or with greater consideration for the interests of those coacensed. He was aware of the difficulties of fixing a pries at which the grower ought to be protected, but he was disposed to give them the advantage of that ditcuky. if be must err, he would rather give them too much than too little. He could assure Honourable Gondootoo who were in that interest, that the merchants of the City of London had no feelings hostile to them, but they wished to fix some atandard which should remove the evils of the present system. He moved that the Petition should be brought up. Mr. GOOCH said, he should only trouble the House for a few moments upon the subject of this Petition. He bad the greatest respect for the Merchants of London, and the Honourable Member had presented the Petition in a very liberal and unobjectionable manner. But he must say, that of all the questions' which could come before the House, this was the one which less than any other could bear tampering with- I (Hear, hear). Since the notice given by th e Honour` able Member for Bridgenorth, the agitation of the country upon this subject bad been beyond the concep tion of those who were not acquainted with I'. He had received more letters and- applications relating to it than any other question which ever came under his notice The landed interest were in the greatest state of alarm lest they should again be thrown back into the distress which they suffered a few years ago, they were con tented as they now were, and wanted no alteration. He did not mean to say that the system was perfect, and might not want revision some time or other. But why were they to interfere now, when till classes were well fed and comfortable ? When they had been told by the Speech from the Throne, that nothing but peace and comfort 'reigned throughout thif happy country. The merchants of the City of London had no cause to corn plain- Their trade was flourishing, and their wotkmen so well paid, that on Saturdays, Sundays, and Min days, they had nothing to do but to stuff themselves 'frith roast beef and Rorter--(Hear, and a laugh). If ever there was a question which called upon the Country Gentleman to stand forward in support of their interests, it was the present. Before sitting down, be wished to ask the Right Hon. the PreAdent of the Board of Trade. whether it was the intention of his Majesty's Government to propose any revision of the Corn Laws during the present &Woo, or to support any such proposition? Mr. HUSKISSON said, the Hon. Gentleman wished, to know whether it was the intention of his Majesty's Government to propose any al measure of relief .with respect to the state of t he Corn Laws in the pre sent Session, and he had no difficulty in stating to him in answer, that his Majesty's Government had no such intention. If it had been contemplated in the present Session to introduce such a measure, he thought it would have been the duty of those to whom it was entrusted to have taken an earlier opportunity for bringing it for ward—(Hear). But, viewing all the circumstances connected with the present state of those laws, and all the considerations which were embraced in so extensive a subject, it would, he thought, take up much more time that was convenient, if he entered into any detail until the regular period arrived, and the question was fairly before them. He would suggest to Parliament, at an early period of the next Session, the propriety of entering on a general revision of the state of the laws for regulating the trade in Corn between this and foreign countries. If the Hon. Member for Bridgenorth brought forward his motion on Thursday, he (Mr. Huskisson) would have a better opportunity for stating the reasons which had induced hint and his colleagues to adopt the opinion that it was not desirable, in the present state of the Session, to go into the inquiry—(Hear). At the same timeth at he had given this answer, be felt no difficulty in. saying that be bad a proposition to submit to the Hesse en a name that was connected with this subject—be alluded to the Wheat which was now shot up under hood. He thought it would be use ful, even to that class of persons who objected to an 'boredom in the Corn Laws, if that Wheat, under certain sepiatissis, inee suffered to come into the market. Mr. HEATHCOTE earnestly hoped the Honourable Member for Bridgenorth would not bring this question forward. The subject was now agitating the country in an alarming degree. Why should they go into this question now, when they were told that they would have it an over again nett year? He hoped the Hasseenbie Member would take the matter lute serious eonsideratiou. Mr. WHITMORE was sure that the greatest good would arise from the distussion of this important sub ject. He was glad to hear from his Right Honourable Friend, that he meant to bring it forward in the next Session; but in the meantime, he was convinced that so far from increasing the irritation of the parties whose apprehensions were so great, the statement be should have the honour to make would greatly quiet their alarm. Mr. CURWEN said, he was firmly convinced that sometbink must be done, as there was not corn enough in the country to meet the consumption before another harvest. Mr. Alderman THOMPSON said that no time could be so opportune as the present, for taking up this im. portant question. If some steps were not taken to remedy the evils of the existing laws, it would be impossible for the Goveruntept to carry their principles into elect. klr. BARING said, he felt convinced that the coun try could not be placed in a wale situation than it would be by the determination of his Majesty's Mini stet s etst to interfere with the Corn Laws this Session ; but that they would next year not revise these laws, but tenter into a general inqu;ty respecting them. The country was in a state of alarm on the subject, nay, even the Hon. Member for Suffolk himself appeared to-think that chit° , n Late: were bad, but that this was not the time to set about mending them. He agreed with the Hon. Member in tie first opinion, but differed fiom him s. in the otber k inasmuch as he thouight Gower.,Sent could not take too early an opportu a nitrof setting this impor tant question at rest. • . Mr. Alderman WOOD concurred-in everything which had fallen from the two last speakers.' Sure he was, that if they removed restrictions on the impel Ca tion of foreign manufactures, they - were bound, in justice, to revise the Corn Laws at the same tune. ar e r I NATCHBULL regretted that the Hon. Member for Is bad not agreed to defer his motion. Lord MILTON would give no opinion on the sub ject now, but he must agree With the Honourable Mem ber for Taunton, that it was the bounden duty of Go vernment to bring the subject forward now, rather that'l l let it go to the next Session of Parliament, when it would probably be left unfinished at the time of a Ge-. anal Election. He thought the best time for the dis cussion was the present, when there was neither a cry for farther protection on the one hand nor for cheap bread on the other. Mr. WODEHOUSE agreed very mach with the sentiments of the Noble Lord, (Milton) but he deprecated repeated discussions on the subject. • Mr. F. LEWIS said, the subject was of too great im portance to expect it not to be discussed and petitioned against. The law he thought bad at present, and he regretted the support he had given to a lay.-which al ternately encouraged free trade and total prohibition.— He thought, as it was impossible this question could be dealt with in that cautious manner which its importance required this Session, it was best that it should stand over till the beginning of the nos Session. Mr. CALCItAFT complained that Government had not apprised the House and the•country of its intention not to make any alterations, six weeks ago, when the subject was first mentioned. Frauds had been detected in the averages, and yet the Right Hon. Gentleman was not disposed even to go into that part of the tries ,tion this Session. The notice of the Right Hon. Gsn t.eman would have the effect of unsettling all contracts 'at present existing, and preventing all others being entered into. Sir T. LETHBRIDGE wished the Government would dispose 'of the question at once. He was ex tamely glad to find that a scale of fixed duties was at I.tat likely to be adopted. In 1822, he (Sir T. Leth bridge) had proposed such a scale, and he by no means desired that prices should be higher than they had been. It would have been better if the Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Huskisson) had stated the course intended to be pursued by Ministers the last time this question was before the House; in answer to the query which, he (Sir T. Lethbrdge) then put to the Right Hon. Gentleman. Mr. HUSKISSON appealed to the experience of any Member in this House, whether it was the prac tice of Ministers to give notice of what they did not intend to do? He had told all such Members as thought fit to ask him, that he had no intention of proposing any alteration in the existing laws with re spect to corn. He would, however, take this oppor tunity of observing, that so far from the present laws being permanent, it was expressly stated in the Report of the Committee in 1821 and 1822, to be only a tem porary arrangement. He had entered the House at the close of the speech of the Honourable Member for the City (Mr. Wilson), and had scarcely heard one' word of it, when the question had been put to him, out of which this discussion had arisen. He had replied— and it was the only reply he could make under such circumstances—that when the time for debating the subject should arrive, he would be ready'to enter into it. At the same time he did not hesitate to say, that he thought it would be impossible to come to any con clusion in the present Session. The Honourable Mem ber for Kent had said that he wished no alteration to be made until some actual inconvenience had been felt. This was begging the whole of the question, be cause the very reason put forward by those who advo cated an alteration in the law was the general incon venience which had been experienced. He appealed to the House, to give him credit for having weig,hed well the reasons which had induced him to withhold any -proposal en the subject, and . to • wait until the motion of the Honourable Member for Bridgenorth, should be before the House, when he intended to ex plain the operation of the change in the system of duties on the manufacturing interests, and the conse quent effect which must be wrought in the Corn Laws. He should also be then prepared to state what it would be more easy to accomplish in the next Session, with respect to those laws, and to shew the expediency of adopting some protection by means of duties, instead of the present objectionable alternation between a free trade in and the entire exclusion of. Corti. Tte,Petitiegisese then brought up and read, and ordered 's, In on the table and to be printed. Mr. T. WILSON expressed his satisfaction at the 'last part of 'the Rfght Hon. Gentleman's speech, though he thoughtise had beep. guilty of some little inconsistency with respect to the Corn Laws, as tympani! with his other commercial regulations. Mr. S. WORTLEY presented a Petition from the Linen Ma nufacturers of Yorkshire, respecting the late alteration in the duties on linen. The Hon. Member also presented two Petitions from certain millers and corn-growers of the same 'county, against any alteration in the Corn Laws ; and one from Halifax inlavour clinch alteration. On the motion of Mr. S. Woanity, the third reading of the Game Laws' Alteration Bill was postponed until Friday next. Mr. CUR WEN presented a Petition from Workington, praying for a revision of the Corn Laws. Nk. ROBRRT GOURLAY. Mr. HUME presented a Petition from a parish in Fifeshire, praying that a Consatission.Might be appointed to inquire into the Asse of Mr. Robert °outlay. Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that Mr. Gourley was not now am assed by Government, but merely because be was unable to give the 'vaulty required. • Mr. BROUGHAM submitted that the petitionen were under some misapprehension on the subject. It was most absurd to sup. pose that he (Mr. Brougham) bad anything to do with Mr. Gourlay's present confinement: The assault upon him was com mitted merely because, on presenting a Petition from Mr. Gourley, regarding the Education of the Poor, he (Mr. Brougham) had not sufficiently entered into his case. Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that the course pursued towards Mr. Gourley was only that of every ordinary case. In reference to the outrage in the lubbl, Mr. Gourley had excused himself afterwards, by saying that he. had only followed high example by scourging sinners in the Temple—(A laugh). Mr. .1. WILLIAMS said, 446 had been entrusted by Mr. Gourley with a Petition, complaining of the decay of his health from co:dimmest, but s peaking in high terms of the conduct of the Governor of I•House of Correction. • tltp -- Mt. Secrets .PRE.L said that he bad given directions that every indulgence be sheep to Mr. Gourley—The Petition was then brought *weed, and laid on the table. Petitions werelossented from Naas, In-favour of the Catholic Claims, by Mr. Hums ; from Leeds, and the White and Coloured Cloth Hill of Leeds and Wakefield, by Lord MILTON, fur a revi sion of the Corn Laws; Petitions, soy alteration in the Corn Laws, were presented fromCotwold, and Selby, by Lord Mwrou ; from Holdeeness, and - the Occupiers of Lead in the County of Edinburgh. by Colonel Bawer; from South Green. hoe and the Hundred of Vreshold, by Colonel Wominousa ; and a Petition from the Inhabitants of the County of Kent, the City of Rochester, and divers Parishes in the same County, by Sir E. Knaseimexh• Lord . MILO it AV B, in presenting a Petition from the City of Chester spinet the Catholic Claims, begged to say, that he di e ffered ie regiment from the qpinion of the Petitieaers.—Ordered to be laid on Ma table, and printed. N Sir B. KNATCHBULL presented a Petition from certaid °women in the neighbourhood of Maidstone, against the Dissect; ters' Marriage Bill. On the motion of Mr. F. Fauna, the County Transfer Land Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed tbis day fortnight. COURT 01 CUANCITRY. Mr. WILLIAMS inquire d when the Report of the - Par liantrd tory Connaileskeieri 'on the state of the Court - of C hancer y was likely to be laid before the House? Mr. Secretary PERL was unable to give the information re quired by the Hon. Member, Mr. BROUGHAM said , the Gentleman (tbe Solicitor. tA tre General) had i n timated that they likely to mike a partial report soon. Mr. W. COUItTRNAY was unable to say when the Report would be produced, although he could state that the Commissioners had not been idle in the great task which' had beta committed to them. The Commissioners had no wish to create any unnecessary delay; but he was sure, when the House considered the great im portance of the subject, and the extent of as inquiry which would go to affect the practice of one of our most antientCourts, that they would not think any time had been wasted unnecessarily. lle thought the Report certainly would be presented this Session. On the motion of Mr. Wawa-Homy, the Canada Com. pany's Bill was read a second time. The Van Dieman's Land . Bill, on the motion of the same Hots. Member, was also read a second time, and committed. On the suasion of Lord A. Hann:roe, the House resolved itself into a Committee of the whole House, on the Small Debts (Scotland) 'Recovery Bill. After a short discussion, the several clauses and amendments were agreed to. The House resumed, and the other Orders of the Day being dis posed of, the House adjourned. TH E EVENINI4 'STAR LONDON.

The only news they contain worth quoting is, that official reports from Transylvania state, that the plague has wholly ceased in Wallachia.
