Lord DACRE inquired whether his Noble Friend considered that he had now obtained all the information winch he wanted upon the subject of the Dill, and when he would allow Mai to move its second reading? The Earl of LAUDERDALE complained that the Equitable Loan Company, which was set up under the pretence of charity, was intended in fact to supersede pawnbilokers and auctioneers, and to have a monopoly of money. As to 410ms:tied, he understood that there was at this moment at their Lordship's door, a person from that association ready to present fresh papers.

JOSEET COOPER and SON, Looking-Glass and Furniture Warehouse, No. 93, Bishopsgate-street As general traders in our particular line, we have for half a century given especial satisfaction to a highly, respectable and indulgent con nection, to whom we take this public opportunity of expressing our zealous and determined intention to merit a continuation of their future patronage. With the change of the times and circumstances, however, which have serVed to give a new feature to the speculation of trade, we must necessarily vary our arrangements in business ; indeed it has become the more imperative on Men of Capital and iofiuence in their respective circles to consult the public necessities, because; owing to the change in the value of property, the manufacturer and the artisan are now suffering front the severe competition existing in. regard to prices. and because too many individuals make price more than quality the leading object in view. This state of things has given rise to a class of speculators who have endeavoured to benefit themselves, by offering goods of very inferior manufacture, which, though apparently cheap, yield the greater profit; they are chewy and decorated, but manufactured without regard to durability, and consequently prove in the result, a serious disappointment to the purchaser. There has also existed an opposite extreme; anotber class of Tradesmen have made such an exorbitant demand for their articles, as to create surprise in the minds of purchasers how the great dis parity in the charge of different houses can be satisfactorily ex plained ; we shall leave the question as it rests, and enter upon our more immediate subject. To be just in our dealings as Tradesmen, we must Mimi profit, but we shall be satisfied with a moderate one, and therefore step between those Establishments who offer the inferior manufactured Furniture without regard to its quality, and those on the contrary so whose extraordinary charges justly alarm the prudent buyer ;by employing none but fint.rate workmen, give them wages suitablerto the times as they really are, and engage our Capital bithe purchase of none but the best materials, and offer the character and credit of an old established House to the more immediate patronage of the Nobility, Gentry, and Public of the United Kingdom. JOSEPH COOPER and SON, in thus offering the nature of their business to notice, trust they shall not be considered as at. tempting what they cannot maintain and support, but prove that for Splendour, Taste, and Solidity, no Establishment in the Metropolis can surpass them, and at prices peculiarly commanding. Their Warehouse will be found to contain every description of the best manufactured CABINET WORK, UPHOLSTERY, and FURNITURE generally in use. LOOKING GLASSES—From the immense reduction which hAs now taken place, can be offered (even of magnificent sizes) so low as particularly to interest Noblemen or Gentlemen desirous of fitting up their Houses with this elegant and fashionable article, whether fur the Drawing or Dining-Mom, Chambers, Staircases, Windows, Conservatories, ace.

This article, foe a small Insur ance, will be delivered, free from risk or breakage ; or large Glasses forwarded by Spring Caravans, constructed for the purpose, to any part of the Kingdom at a very trifling expense.

The Lord Chief Justine and the Chief Baron, and all the Judges, attended the House of; Lords, in which the Camscitt.t.ou presided. The Chief Baron reed the opinion oF the Judges on the questions submitted to them, which in effect were-Ist; whether, under the words " eldest male lineal descendant," a nude descended through a female line could Dominate to a living? and, ndly, Whether the person coming under that description, If an infant, could amid- Datej The opinion of the Judges was, that the words '• male lineal delocendant" could only extend to persons descended exclusively through the male line ; and that an infant might, by law, nominate to the living. . The result is. that the family of George Woodford Thelluson, the second son of the late Peter Manson, the testator, in which there is a failure of issue male, are not entitled to any of the eccle siastical preferments belonging to this property. Lord ROLLE presented Petitions against concessions to the Catholics, from the following Parishes in the County of Devon : Ayiesbere, Gettiston, Ifarpfotd, Otterton, Farringdon, Rocbbeere.

By Order of the Board, J. A. WOOLRYCII, Secretary. SLAVERY. Viscount CLIFDRN presented a Petition (rein the Inhabitants of New Sarum, ler the abolition of Negro Slavery. Earl GROSVENOR contended that the Government were not sufficiently in earnest to effect that great object, and that their lordships must rely upon themselves. He should himself propose some regulation*, if his Majesty's Ministers did not.--The Petition was then laid on the table. Lord KING, alluding to what had fallen from the Noble Lord, on a former occasion, respecting an Honourable Gentleman who hatibeen formerly Member for Waterford, said that the feelings of his friends had been muck hurt by the statement in the Newspapers, that he had fled from Ireland, and bad made a bad return for the hospitality which he had received in North Devon, by disturbing the peace of the County ; for that was the way in which the Gentlemen who reported the proceedings of that Howe bad endeavoured to make sense of what the Noble Lord had said. Now, he was authorised to state, that the Honourable Gentleman in question, had remained in Ireland during the whole of the Re bellion, serving in a volunteer corps, and only leaving that country to attend his duty in Parliament. A declaration to that effect had been signed by Mr. Lousada, and twelve other respectable Gentlemen. Lord ROLLE had never said that the Gentleman in question bad fled from Ireland, for he knew that he was there during the Rebellion and bad even served with him in the same corps. All be had said was, that he bad imprudently taken the lead in treating a division in the county. The Earl of LIMERICK said, that so far from wishing to create a division, that Gentleman bad done all in bit power to pre- vent ids friends from petitioning, and had even offered on their part to desist from doing so, if the party who bad sent their Petition through the Noble Lord, would withhold it. Lord ROLLE could only say, that he understood the Gentleman in question bad headed the Opposition, and as to the disposition of the inhabitants that might be seen by a comparison of numbers. The Petition against the Catholic Claims was signed by 454, whilst that in their favour was only signed by fifty.—The Petitions were then laid on the table. The Duke of YORK, in presenting a similar Petition from the Parish of Edmonton, in Middlesex, laid, that it was signed by se veral hundreds, ani that be wished heartily success to its prayer.— Laid on the table. BURIALS IN IRELAND. Radii ADNOR was understood to ask some questioa respect. ing the Act passed last Session to regulate burials is Ireland, and give notice that that day fortnight he would bring the subject. before the House. The Earl of LIVERPOOL stated, that the Bill of last year had completely answered the object for which it had been enacted, and he hoped that the Noble Lord would not disturb a question which was now entirely at rest. SWIFT and CO.—The Ticket, No. 7,034 (Class - B), drawn on 12th last Month a Prize of £20,055 ; No. 6,391 (Clan A), a Prize of X3lsi and No. 6,337 (Class B) a Prize of £220, were shared and sold at their old OfEcea, 11, Poultry r; 12, Charing-Cron; and 31, Aldgate Hi gh-street; where Tickets and Sham are now on Sale for the Grand Schstur to be all decided on 31st this Month (MAY), containing Two Prizes of £30,000, Two of £lO,OOO, Two of £5,000, and Twenty other Capitals.

SWIFT and CO. sold and shared Siz of the Capital Prizes in the preceding Lottery, which finished on the 31st De cember last. The Earl of Losieuce and Viscount Curium assured the Noble Earl that the question was perfectly at rest. Earl RADNOR expressed his inability to endure a Bill of loch an infamous tendency, and his Intention to seize a future opporto. nity of exposing the enormities to which it gave birth. Mr. DunnAs and others from the Commons brought up several Private Bills, which were read a first time. GAill LAWS. The Order of the Day having been read, THE DIPLOMATIST ; OR, DANGER AVERTED.

The Bishop of ST. DAVID'S presented ten Petitions from dif ferent Parishes in his Diocese, one from Glamorganshire, and nine from the County of Radnor. In presenting the latter, the Bishop said, " I bold in my band a variety of Petitions from different Parishes in the County of Radnor. These Petitions lie in a small compass ; the Parishes are not populous, but their inhabitants are zealous Protestants; and they seem determined that the Clergy shall not stand an insulated body in the face of the Empire, nor run away with all the credit of petitioning your Lordships against granting any further concessions to the Roman Catholics."—Laid on the table. aimy SO, STRAND, London; And, sold in every Town in the Kin Om.

House hold Furniture purchased at liberal Prices, or removed to conve nient situations for disposal, if Sales on the premises are objected to. It is the principal feature of their Establishment to settle generally within three days after the Sales have been effected, and to make no charge for Registering Property intended to be disposed of by Private Contract, unless absolutely sold through their exertions. Estates surveyed and valued and Rentals collected. JOSEPH COOPER and SON, having now fully explained the immediate substance of their arrangements, most con fi dently arm that their prices o ff er a mo s t important r eduction for the advantage of immediate payment, which they shall be glad to attest by re ference to some, of the first Families in the Kingdom, which is the hest proof of integrity and respectability; and once more beg to so licit the general patronage of the Public. Ladies and Gentlemen desirous of avoiding the bustle of the City will find an easy and pleasant access to Biskopsgate-street by taking the route of the New-road and City-road through Finsbury-squares 93, Bishopsgate-street Within. Similar Petitions were then presented—By Eatl Alitatsnet.o, from the City of Perth; and by the Duke of Wts.t.twaros, from the City of Norwich. The Bishop of NORWICH, after alluding to the situation of five or six millions of our fellow subjects, who were deprived of the full enjoyment of their civil rights, for DO other reason than for religious opinions, which, though certainly erroneous, ought not he made the ground of political aisabilities, said it was gratjfying to a liberal mind to know that there were Protestant Clergymen in the Empire, and particularly in the county of Nor folk, who entertained more enlarged ideas of religious aid civil liberty, and more correct views of the real interests of the Rua blished Church. He had the honour to present a Petition in favour of conceding the prayers of the Catholics, signed by eighty or ninety Protestant Clergymen, who yielded to no one in their cor dial attachment to our Ecclesiastical Establishment. The Right Rev. Prelate then presented a l'etition from the Archdeacon and Clergy of the Archdeaconry and Diocese of Norwich in favour of Catholic Emancipation. Lord SUFFIELD most cordially concurred in the prayer of this Petition, and gave his testimony to the exemplary character of the individuals by whom it was signed.—Read and laid on the table. • The Marquis of LANSDOWN had a Petition of a similar nature to present, which was signed, not, only by the Protestant Clergy, but by the Representatives of the whole Protestant in• terest of the County of Kerry. Its prayer was, that their Lord ships would grant those of the Catholics, and he s..id it in the hearing of Noble Lords connected with that county, it was SUIM scribed by almost every Protestant PArishioner, Miiiiiter, Magis. Lord DACRE rose to move - the second reading of the.aime Laws Amendment Bill. He should not en gross their Lordships' time to prove the impolicy, liqustice, and evils of the existing system of laws rela tive to Game, for they were fully evinced by the effects which they produced on the agricultural population of the country. It was his strong and decided o, in . on, however, that few questions of greater impottanc e could be submitted to the consideration of the House. The Noble Lord then referred to the ancient laws on the subject, in order to shew that the Bill only tended to restore them to their original state. He quoted cases and former decisions to prove, that Game was once already considered property, though by the sth of William and Mary, ell interests, with the exception of great Landholders, had been excluded from its enjoy. ment, except thruagh an infraction of the law. It the present Bill Were passed, fair arrangements would shortly be made between 'proprietors and tenants, which would induce the latter to detect instead of en couraging the practices which were now going on. It proposed to make Game property,which should be con veyed like any other, and also to permit Game to he freely sold under regulations which would be best di cussed in the Committee. The arrangements with respect to Game might be entered in leases, and in the Committee he should propose an amendment to that effect. It was admitted by all that something must be done. Whether the measure oq the table was what ought to be done, it did not become him to say, but be thought that with a few amendments, it might be found useful, as it contained many just principles. Ile introduced the question, not as.one of G..me, but as one affecting the habits, the the Tile Earl of WESTMORELAND admitted the exist ence of evils and grievances and wished them to be cot ratted, but feared that the present attempt would only create new ones. He contended that the mea ure, in stead of being favourable to the people, would te found most tyrannical and despotical. It was one b trowea from the principles of the French Revolution—(Latishier) --and would affect the rights of every cf,ss in the country except a favoured few. The Noble Earl then entered into the d tails of the Bill, and declared th would turn all England into poachers, and eve y si that it ;ports-
