They prayed that.their Lsidships would institute an inquiry into the state of the laws respecting them : for they were alarmed at the doubts which had been espressed in a high quarter of their being offenders on account of their religion. Indeed, he should not have thought it .possible that any doubts should be entertained of the competency of a class so respectable,. who had so long filled with credit so many offices and all the relations of Society, and who believed in a state of future rewards and punishments, or that without any allegation against than of came ar disloyalty to disqualify themithey should be thought subject to the operation of the common law, years af ter an Act of Parliament had passed, repealing all pc rialtics inflicted upon them by the Statute law. It had • been truly said by ford Mansfield, 44 that the Dissen tees were not under the connivance, but the protection of the law." The Petitioners believed in the Scriptures. • in a future state of rewards and punishments, and as Christians were entitled to the protection of the laws. It was, at all events, a matter to them of the utmost importance, that the state of uncertainty in which they were placed at present should be removed, and that they should know what was their ictual condition in the eye of the law. He hoped that at no remote period the Ped. timers would be relieved from the obligation of the law of mar riage. He did not wish to prescribe to their Lordship the course they ought to adopt; but be was of opinion that exemption from the law of marriage would, if not define the , extent of their rights, at least relieve thew/roam the cloud, as to their real state in the eye of thi law, in which they were at present ensamped The LORD CHANCELLOR thought it was er• tainly desirable that the law should be ascertained.— Should any doubts exist, it was but reasonable that those doubts should be construed for the benefit, and not to the prejudice of theTetitioners. - Lord HOLLAND said, that •if the Noble and Learned Lord thought the law was doubtful, he would have acted a more fair and manly part had he stated so to the House, and also have endeavoured to re move those doubts, and to amend the law. At an earlier period *of the Session, it would have been a 'matter of doubt what steps the House ought to have adopted on this important subject ; but it was evident that at that late period nothing could be effected. He (Lord Holland) highly approved of the Petition, for the doctrine alluded to did not afloat the Unitarians alone, but in fact went to assert that - the Dissenters had no legal rights, and only esisted by sufferance. The doctrine had in former times been glanced at try Mr. Justice Perrot, and by Justice Blackstone:- The claims of the Dissenters had on a lite 'occasion been advocated much to their honour by some of the most , • eminent Dignitaries - of the Church, chile others had been of opinion that they were liable to i prosecution at common law. It had Certainly been the doctrine of great lawyers, that Christianity wai 4 4 , part and par cel" of the law of England.' . But that could only •be applicable to the Petitioners, upon the principle that to deny the Trinity was to deny Christianity.— Now Lord Chief Justice Raymond, and in still clearer and better language, Lord Mansfield. had stated, that to believe in the Italy Scriptures was to believe in Christianity, and In the Holy Scriptures the Petitioners believed. The Paidoners.in rages stood on the mme fiskilnig with all other classes of Dieschlkss, =ld were omitied to the same civil and religious rights. The LORD CHANCELLOR in, etplan,ation said, he had given no opinion of his own at ear. time 00 ' the subject; bat bad only stated what had talus place in.the eoftti below.

DUMAS PUISS-IaCINET. Mr. ABERCROM BY presented a Petition front Mr 7. E. MacGregor, an Meer entitled to share in the Deccan Prize money, deprecating the imputation attempted to be insinuated, that there wits a desire to enter into needless Stigation and praying the House woad call upon those Petitioners, whoinsauated so murk, to state to voltam that insinuation applied. Qdonel LUSHINGTON said, the motive of the Petitioners, wbosti Petition be had the honour to present, was merely to ez ries their confidence in the Trustees, and with no intention elf in• yid, anybody. Slr H. HARDINGE said, the Duke of Wellington and Mr. Arbuthnot, had reason to complain of calum nious aspersions and misrepresentations. He thought the correspondence on the table shewed sufficiently, that there was a disposition in some parties to go to law. He thought the Gentlemen of the Long Robe - had had their share of the booty, since, in law .expenses there had been already cap nded 14,0001. whilst the expenses of the Trustees for two years amounted only to 1501. He was not making any-accusation in saying this, beet he mast. say, that Sir T. idialop must have been 'toady deceived by ems one iu his confidence, who put, in the Newspapers garbled accounts of what passed, and for that reason, the Duke of Wellington hod been obliged to Mink even his tiersassal comessnications to Sir T. Hislop ; for entirely acquitting hint of these thins, it must be that k is confidence was abused by some one. Mr. BROUGHAM said, the Hon. and gallant Officer had his full leave and license to say whatever he pleased of the profession of the law. but what he (Mr. B.) coon-, plained of was, a particular accusation being made against particular persons. which upon the slightest ex amination of the circumstances, turned out to be un founded. Against the charge of needlestlitigation. he (Mr. Brougham) had the evidence of the Commander in-Chief (Sir T. Hislop) and others, who represented their own interest, and who made no complaints of needless and expensive litigation. There was said to be an diture of 214,000 for law proceedings, but what had been for that sum? Why, upwards of AIWA® ; for by that Ws, k must be remembered, die Deccan Army beat. the Grand Army, and the East India Company. It was common elms* for ponies to cqmplain, when they lost their cause ; bat it was a hard ease that there should be complaints when the came had been pined; and be (Mr. Brougham) would be well cceitent, if ever be Mg=as a suitor . to have a similar remit in his case. el LUSHINGTON ezplairsed•—He admitted that he bad signed the Petition to the House, for Colonel Nobk, who is absent L the Highlands of- Scotland, and which he thought k bad sufficient authority for doing, as he disapproved of the proceed-, logs against the Trustees. Mr. BROUGHA bi thought this was m extremely iflognler transaction on the part of as Hon. and gallant Mei.' Mr. Secretary CANNING said, there could be to doubt that the gallant Officer had acted from the best of motives. in adopting the course which he had avowed, in so candid and manly a manner. It was equally { 'certain that that course would have been inconsistent with the usage . of Parliament, even' if he had had -an express authority from his friend to sign the Petition; and that the irregularity was still greater,, since- hi acted only en a general knowledge of the opinions of his friend, the gallant Officer would be aware, when his Parliamentary experience was more matuted. He (Mr. Canning), however, could not : but protest against' the tone which had been assumed by He..n. and Lend Gefitlemen opposite, in the observations which thet bad made on the general quittiOn. _had alwaYs 'Airtight that the settlement of a question brarbitratioP, was a course commonly preferred to an expengive proceedr ing at law, and he really thought it bard upon any Gentleman- it ho ventured to state such a preference in that House, that he should be called upon to substan tiate a charge upon the learned profession. This was a sort of tyranny which he had.never heard of before, and. which he !rally did not understand. A Doctor of Physic was glad to get a pat tot; a Clergyman was supposed to delight in the cure.of souls ; beet if it were only hinted that a Lawyer liked to get a client, this was instantly. resented, - Honourable and Drained Gentle men opposite, as a cruel aspersion, and a sort of man datoe megnatuna against the members of that profes sion —(A laugh). He remembered that in a late debate a story was rather triumphantly told on the other side of the House, of atfaccount between two parties, which had been the subject of litigation for many years, hav ing been re:erred to an unprofessional Gentleman in that House; and satisfactorily settled in half an hour. 1 , Such a story as this, in the present temper of Hon. and Learned Gentlemen, would be treated as a gross ca lumny on the whole profess on. For his part, he thought the advice to abide by the arbitration perfectly sound advice, and he did not see why this opin;on might not be entertained, without giving personal offence to any Gentleman, who had given, or who might expect to be called upon to give a legal opinion on the subject. Pro fessional Gentlemen naturally liked professional em ployment, and this was a law of nature, from which, even the Opposition—and, in the history of Parliament, there never was an Opposition so entirely composed cf Lawyers—was not exempt—(A laugh). He Meant to say nothing in the slightest degree disrespectful of what I be deemed an honourable, and a magnificent profession ; but certainly there was a disposition in all professions to get as much employment as possible, and in that desire it was not too much to say, that lawyers participated quite as much as other mew. Mr. ARERCROMBY did not object to the general annuls& in this Pedtion, but to the unfounded charges whiohhad been wadi upon particular individuals. Dr. LUSHINGTON, after entering into some details of the case, observed, that be thought . that Sir John Malcolm would have adopted a more prudent course, had he refrained, while the cast was sub judice, from praising those who were appointed to be his Miss, and from com plaining of those wbo were opposed to hint. Sir H. HARDINGE, us allusions to the p.mphlet that had been pub:ished on the que,tion, described it as a 'calninnious and unjust attack, and said that he. was coueinced that it could not have been written by Col. Wood, or by any other Officer. In h;s opinion, the Duke of Wellington was quite free from reproach, and had acted throughout with the greatest judgment. BROUGHAM said, that he had read only hisg 'the pamphlet ; but so far as he had read, he thought the statements correctly given, and b no degree over, charge.i. If, however, the pamphlet was a libel, the way to put' it down was to make it the subject of . an .I#tion at IaW.(A laugh). The gallant officer might• !speak i i long as he liked in defence of the Duke' Of &newton and use as many hard words as he pleased, • r ••• but it woul d do nn good. He was surprised that the IA A& Of ..Wellington could rest satisfied with general gppealtiettlbaracter., instead of at once bringing an aetioalrgitost the Publisher of the pamphlet. The ques tion should be decided not ego the pp m , * statamilted tbellabot Officer, but on the 'Warn etildericidif competent Witnesses. . • • • 'The Petition was then read, and ordered to lie es • the table. • • dam *A' lamp Imre.

Mr. W ILMOT.HOR TON said, that if the Petitioner could abew that it was to promote the ends of justice, and not advance his own private objects in going to the tape, hls ease should re ceive favourable consideration. The Petition was then brough t up, and ordered to be printed. Mr. BROUGHAM presented a Petition from George Gray, complaining of sertaio privileges belooging to or assumed by the Corporation of Newbury, la the County of Berks. Mr. BROUGHAM rose to present a Petition of ra ther an extraordinary character, it came from Ireland, complaining of oppressionland severity exercised upon a poor man there, on proceedings out of a civil bill pro cess, in the Court of the Assistant Barrister of the county where the poor man resided. It was a tithe case, and he (Mr. Brougham) could not but complain that Cler gymen sitting as Magistrates had been active iodise op pressirn of the Petitioner. After a few words from Mr. GaATTAK, the Petition was brought up and ordered to lie en the table. GOUTY AMERICA. Mr. Secretary CANNING rose to give an answer ton question that had been asked by the Honourable li.tens• beg for Taunton (Mr. Baring), on a preceding night. That Hon. Gentleman had asked, why an Enioy from the Government of Buenos Ayres had not been pre sented to his Majesty as such ? and from such omission, had drawn the inference that his presentation was op. posed by some other foreign Pourer. That • inference was at least rashly drawn, and in giving an answer to the question that had been put, be would begin by ne ativing the inference in the most positive mariner— (Hear). There had not been the slightest intervention in the case on the part of any other Government, and had there been, it would have been without success -(Harr, hear). The fact was. that the person •alluded to was not sent exclusively to this country, but was Envoy Plenipotentiary to his Majesty and to the Court of France ; and he (Mr. Canning) thought that he was not paying too much respect to England, when he said that she had at least a tight to a whole Ambassador for her own share—(Haar, hear). .It - eras a* rule that he thought should never be departed from, though he knew that a notion had got abroad that the new States ought to have something better and more than the old ones ; but it was his opinion that . enough was done, when they were brought into the established commu nity of nations, and he considered it to be his duty to recommend exactly as much respect to be paid to them as to the oldest and most despotic Governments—(Hear, hear). The paper that the Envoy alluded to had pro duced was certainly a snfacient credential is between himself add his own Government, bat it was not suit; clear lia betiviten England and Buenos Ayres. He had , an additional reason to regret the Honourable Gentle , man's absence, as hi-understood -that he had alluded to another transaction . , in which a Gentleman in part nership with d commercial house id the city, bad been appointed Consul-General for a Foteiga State, and. had called upon him for the pprpose of entering into a dis cussion of st- - ve4y - important-question. ; He, boyever. had positively lamed to listen to hispi,•or.evest to 14 him again id. that capacity , such is ,sfuCretlon on hit part being nothing more toan.nctiet-on the principle that every coutitry has -a right to refuse. or accept the Ambassador sent to it. .• The new State might certainly persist in the course it had :`adopted, but - it was co'• tainly very hard if England was tti be forced by it to descend from the high ground on which it stood; but he had had another objection, and he was not sorry at having that opportunity to say a word about it : no man was ignor ant of the speculations that were_taking place in this country with regard to the Continent of South America, and of the changes that followed. any fluctuations in those speculations, and, therefore, he thought that it would be •highly blameable in him to acknowledge as Envoys from those States any British Meditate --(Wear, bear), and, itipurmance of tae amen which be bad In that instance adopted, he bad entail to hisjesty's Charge d'Agaires at Buenos Ayres; 'and ether places, S o a r *eat to enter into mercantile speculation, and is the evened chile per elitists, in spites of such a nodes, the eenseqornee would be their removal from °Mee. This was the course be thought necessary to pursue. It was highly probable that the Savoy of whom belled dist spoken wadd lave his credentials properly reedited, moot likely before the nett meeting of P t, in whisk case, of course, no farther objection would letreffered to his competency. Mr. BROUGHAM concurred in Wilk of policy which the Right Honourable Gentleman had pursued. He thought that there eight to be no distinction between the new States and those of Prance and Holland. Mr. Secretary CANNING said a few words, which were in audible in the Gallery. Sir R. WILSON presented a Petition from a Parish in the County of Kent, praying for Negro Emancipatian.—Ordered to tie on the table. Mr. HUME presented a Petition from the inhabitants of See *swordb and another place, in favour of Mr. clonday.—Laid on the table.

We then estinmed the increase of the CUVOMS for the Quarter over the corresponding Quar ter last year, at 1,920,9301.; but it will be seen that the• increase is 1,9384711. This , large aogmeat‘tiou . 0f the Customs is, as we stated, owing tl a portion Of - the Excise Duties having been transferred to this branch of the Revenue. We allude ;A the duties on . as tiales ported,'which, since the sth of April last, have been transferee(' from the Excise to the Customs. If, how ever, we take the Excise and the Customs together, we shall find this theie is in the two, collectively, a very sensible and important increase. The amount of the Customs and Excise for u Quarter ending the .sth of July, 1824, was 7,980,4084 that for the Quarter which 'ended yesterday, 8,183,4961• exhibiting an increaseon the Quarter just ended, over that of the corresponding Quarter of last Year.of 225,0781.0 t at the rate of nearly a million a.year; and this too, notwithstanding the reduction of duties and a drawback on Silk and Wine, during the last Quarter, to a la►ge amount. The Revenue for the year ending the sth of .duly, 1824, it will be seen, by reference to the Official Re. turns,was 50,412,592/. that for the year ending yesterday, 49,626,1931. exhibiting a decrease on the year of 786,3991. but then we must takeinto comidetation that the receipts of the year 18:4, include*. a :stinn of 2,500,000/. repaid by. AnstriX, and if we &Ask( this sum, which was happily enough denominated a a Gen send," we.shall End chit the actual Revenue of 19244 raised in the' •country, wit' only 47,912,5921. or 1,710011. less than the yeti ihich terminated yesterday. The Returns Of the last Quarter are as gratifying . . those of they ear, taken in the aggregate. The Revenue for the Quarter ending 6th Ju1y,1824, 'was 11,989,4801. that for the Quarte r. wlsieh ended yesterday, 12,493,5211. exhibiting an increase bf 504,0411. or at the rate ottwo milli ms sterling a year. . .. • - We have already alluded to the increase on the Cu stoms and Excise jointlj ; and it will be 4411111 tat in every one of the branches of the Revenuithere is an increase.
