_ N EWSPAPIIit STAMP DMUS. Islr. HUSlll o =ted a Petition from W. IL Norton, a - prietor oi• Tki Fres Pees, complaining of the injury sns tained•lly Oa " of Newspapers, in consequence of the practice of to c 1:: aditerthements in periodical papers, witlfout stank. The P • prayed for the abolition of the Stamp Duties upon Newspaper. The CHANCELLOR of the RECHICOEE Mid, that the advertisements in nestamped papers were as liable to the duty a any other, and that all publications containing them were Nre• wise liablelo•the regular Newspaper Stamp Doty. Government intd had legal advice to this effect, and they intended in future to edforce the claim upon the part of the public. • CoMSINATION LAWS. Mr. HO BIIOUS E presented a Petition from 'certain individuals delegated to watch the pregress of the Combination Laws MIL They particularly complained of the intention to put an end to all deleptions. The operatives of Glasgow had had no time allowed. them for expressing their opinions. lie felt it his duty to throw all possible obstacles in the way of passing the Bill, on account of - iO oppressive character. Should the Bill pass the House, he would slyly observe, that the table of the other House would groan with Petitions against the BM. Mr. WA MACK said, that the Committee had examined ill the witnesses who were considered as calculated to give an account of the character of the several associations. General G ASCOY N I: said it was understood that the 311 Itself was the first thing to come under consideration to day, and why had not that been the case ? Ile declared he should give the Bill, or rather the " verbal alterations" of the law, every opposition which the forms dike liatm would allow. :Mr. 111/ NI E said Ire was compelled to deny the accuracy of the Eight llonotirable Gestiemen's (dlr. Wallace) statements regard ing the calling of all the witnesses who could give testimony as to the character of the combinations; that had not been the case. Tbe Petitionera prayed to be heard by their Counsel. Mr. HOIIHOUSE repeated, that in consequence of the great injustice of the Bill, he should throw every obstacle in its way. Mr. Secretary PEEL sail, that as in other instances, the Honourable Member would probably, in his cooler mettents, withdraw such opposition. The Honourable Memh. r fur Montrose 'had, at the beginning of the Session, said that G..- vernment ought to be armed with a power, like that given by the Insurrection Act, to repress combinations. Alr. FIUME said he had merely observed, that if the statements of Gentlemen opposite were true, and if the Civil Power was insualcient, then, indeed, theGovetnment ought to have additional power; but those statements were not true. The 1 Bill would be fatal to the liberties of the operatives—( Hear, from the Ministerial Benches). He repeated that it was fatal to the liberties of the operatives. He would oppose it to the utmost pitch that the forms of the House would allow. Mr. Secretary PEEL explained.—He denied that the Bill was fatal to the liberties of the people—(Hear). If so, why did the Honourable Member consent to the second reading ?—(Cheers). But the Bill was founded on the Hopurable Gentleman's own resolutions—(Cheep). Even on the last dis cussion the Honourable Gentleman acquiesced in the principle of the Bill—(Hear). He (Mr. Peel) had called in the military power at Stroud, in consequence of the violence of the operatives. Mr. CRIPPS admitted that the Bill was brought forward at a la.e period cf the Session, but would any Honourable Gentleman put off such an important mea sure till next year? As to Petitions against the Bill, they were of little moment, as he could engage to get thousands in forty-eight hours. The operatives were the worst judges on the subject, as they could not calculate the effects of the evil until they felt them. It was ridiculous to talk of such a Bill being oppressive to the liberties of the subject. Mr. JONES expressed his surprise at hearing the Honourable Member for Montrose say, that there had been no combinations and violence among the operatives. If anything could excite to combination, it would be the language of the lion. Member. Mr. V. WH I Tsit.nt E gave notice of his intention to move a clause, authorising persons to appeal from Magisterial decisions. Mt. W. SMITH said, that as the representative of a manufacturing district, he could say he had received no ins•roctions from his constituents. lie should sup port the clause to be moved by his Honourable friend (Mr. Whit mere). The measures used to repels the outrages of the opera tives at Glasgow, could not be enfotced except by the aid of the m ili tar y. The object of the 11111 was to prevent one body of work men from tyrannizing over anuther—(Bear). He should vote for the passing of the Ikll. Sir F. BURDETT was strongly against the Bill. He n would rather have seen all the old statutes against cont• binations repealed, and the common law left in force. The Mat simians in the manufacturing districts could not be impartial. Ile hoped it might be deferred until the next Session, until the Bill of lot year bad a fair trial. or at least until the present Bill bad been annielmaturely deliberated. Mr. HUSKISSON doubted whether the Hon. Baro net had read either the 818 of last Session or of the present Session. It was impossible to gain anything by calling further evidence before the Committee. Would Hon. Gentlemen call convicted felons before the Com mittee to be retried there? li was only worthy the Hon. Member for Montrose—(hear).—Great violence had taken place in ctfferent parts of the country. In one'place a man's ear was cut off. Were the persons vho inflicted this outrage to be called as witnesses be fore the Committee? lie was surprised at the inflam matory language of the Hon. Member for Montrose— (l.lear).—He (Mr. Huskisson) had always refused to 1 ear the representations of either workmen or masters, but had re cried them to the Committee—(Hear).—lt would base been well for the Hon. Member, and for the country, if he had followed the same example—(Loud cheers).—But the lion. Member bad not even the poor merit of originating his own irfiammatory language, as it was copied front the resolutions and papers of the workmen—(ka, and laughter).—At any rate the lion. Member ought to be bound by the resolutions of his own Committee of last year. Mr. E. ELLICE thought there were oblectionable parts in the Bill, but still he preferred it to the old common law of conspiracy. however, it would be but justice to the workmen to give them an appo 1 from the summary jurisdiction of the Magistrates. With this a:.d a few other alterations, he would be content to forego any fur ther opposition. Mr. Secretary PEEL saki, that the person who had it: the Committee opposed the re-enactment of the old Common Law was the Hon. Member for Montrose. He would read the Hon. Merriber's own resolutions for repealing the existing statutes and altering the Common Law. The eleventh resolution was 4 , to enact a law which . by -:summary process—(Loud Cheers)—might punish every man who by threats, intimidation, or vio lence should interfere with the perfect freedom of la boot.”—(Cheen)._—He . begged_ Members to read the evidence before Wen asked fee a fairkeissies for the men, sad uoless they bad tr, cuscarbsole and dissashiaeosa min, saturant be etineeted, Mr. 'RIME dallied tit* lithad used inflammatory languago—(Rear,: hear), jig: hid only spoken the truth, and truth could never be inflamrisatory. He held that mischievous atiom of our laws, that truth was a libel, to be a departure from the principles of good government. The HonOurable Member defended ' his conduct in the Committee, and stated that the Bill gave no protection to the men whatever. The men might be imprisOned for three months, or sent to the tread-mill for a look, while the masters might commit any act a;ainst them, without a word of remedy being provided in the Bill. It was 'fiery well to say, that the Men ought to be protected against each other ; but he asked the Right Honourable Gentleman, whether the men had applied for any such Ootection? There had been but'one iolitary Petition of shelf a kind before the House. If the sinfintal7 process had been given up, the men would have been satisfied with the measure as it first stood, but they were not satisfied pith the alterations and additions which had since en. Wet , / changed its character. The Right Honourable Gentleman oppositt attributed these combinatibos to the Act of fait year. Mr:Secretary PEEL coup not longer sit to bear the gross mis s representations of the Hon. hfember. lie had repeated, until he wa tired of repeating. that he did not attribute combinations to the.Aet of the Hon. Member. Sir F. BURDETT . said that the charge had been made by the Right lion. President of the Board of Trade. Mr. Ii ULIKISSON denied that he had ever said any sueb thing. Mr. 11U MS having made some further observation s, - Mr. Secretary PEEL repeated that he attributed these combinations to no particular cause, but finding them in existence, he called upon hie House to put them down. He did not with to strengthen the power of the Govern. ment ; he cared not for the master; but he thought it the duty of that House to protect the poor men who became the victims of others' misconduct, and who were entitled to such protec tion in return for their allegiance to the Government—(Hear). Tile AT rouNEY-GENERAL said that the conduct of the lion. Member for Aberdeen very much surpr Led him, because when the Bill was first brought in, a con • versation eccorred between them, in which the Hon. Member approved the principle of the Bill. lie ob jected to some details, and he (the Attorney-General) now had in his possession a draft of the Bill as alt,Ted by tie ll.in. Member, in which the parts which he now denounced as hostile to the liberty of the subj-ct, were Containel—(Loud cheers). The first alteration was, that information should be takor on oath, which alte3 a- tion was made in the Bill. The second relatei to the ab sconding. of persons, and that had not been consented to. The thir d and last alteration proposed by the lion. Gentleman was, that the word " solely" should be left out of one of the clauses. • These were the only objections made by the lion. Mem ber, and he (the Attorney-General) bad the Bill so altered now in his possession, in the manuscript of the Ilon.Member—(Cheers).— lie could not conceive what could have made such a change in the lion. Mcmber's opinion in the course df three or four days. The Petition was then ordered to be printed. Mr. MAXWELL presented a Petition front certain weavers of Renfrew, praying that there might be no re-enactment of theCotu bination Laws, and for a reduction of the duty on Indentures of Apprenticeship.—Ordered to be pdattd. COUSINATION LAWS AILINDWINT BILL. _ Mr. WALLACE moved the bringing up of the Report upon the aismre Bill. Mr. HUII E again commenced hls.ediservations in opposition to the BM; and the House being very thin, the lion. Member said the question required more attention on the part .of Members, and he should accordingly move that the House be counted. The House was Allen counted, and 42 Members being found present, the discussion proceeded. . Mr. kIUME . then went on to condemn the Bill, as being unjust anti oppressive towards the men, and par , tial in the favour wi:h.svhich it Viewed the . masters.— He contended that the Bill of la t year gave sufficien, power to the masters. - With that raver they had put down a combination at Glasgow, and coerced the men to return to their wink. If the present measure wee.. passed, the men punished under it would consider them selves as martyrs, and not as criminals. lie thought he was entitled to the support of the Honourable Member for Galway (Mr. It. Martin). That Hon. Member was very assiduous in his effats to better the conditiOn of brutes ; and the human animal ought not io be thought entirely to escape his attention. The only difference that he could discover between the cases was,. - that the bears and bulls could not combine —(A laugh).—lf the Bill were altered, so as to take out the clause giving power to compel individuals to give evidence against themselves, and the clause making " molestation" an offence, he would readily assent to the measure. if those powers were not limited, he openly avowed he would take every opportunity of defeating the measure. That m;nd could not have a particle of justice in it which submitted to the enactment Gf a measure for making the matter manufacturer judge in his own case. An artisan might be sentet.ced to the tread. mill for mo lesting his master, but there was no provision for punishing the master who molested his workmen.—'Fhe House then divided— For receiving the Report 56 Against it Majority in favour of the Bill . Mr. JONES said, he thought it indispensably neces• sary that a clause should be added to the BM to grant an appeal from the decision of a single Magistrate. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said, he would add a clause to that effect on the third reading of the Bill—(Hear). Sir ROBERT WILSON objected to the word " m. lest" in ae Bill, as too vague to be used in a penal sta-, tute. He hoped there would be some limitation in die time tor, which a person refusing to give evidence might be imprisoned. Mr. Secretary,PEEL said, he was petlectly ready to agree that the time for impsisoning a seluc.ant witness, should be limited to three month, and also that a li mitation should be fixed to the time of bringing in formations. The term la molestation" was one well known to the law, and was to be found in numerous Acts of Par liament, and therefore be could not consent to its omission. Mr. S. WORTLEY said, the workmen, when they combined, were too wise to use violence, and without the word " molestation," the Bill would be blank paper. Mr. ABERCROMBY said, he hoped Ministers would be prepared to state to the House, at the next meeting of Parliathent, how the Bill had operated, that every nscessary improvement might be made. He wished to know, if a number cf masters combined to compel another matter to give lower wages than he was willing to give, they could be pro4ecuted under the Bill? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, in compliance with Mr. Hobhouse's suggestion, proposed an amendment,' that the provisions against combinations should extend to masters endeavouring to promote a &substation of wages, as well as against the men striking for an advance. uou.• --- t .------, - -.. taken before the Committee before they v oted th i s nig h t.
