With a reference of Settlement, and the general principles itfelf, they were bound to come to fome upon the prefent cafe; he therefore truii .ordfhips would refill a motion, which, in would tend to put at end to the proceed. Cher. .1 of CARNARVON, though he teemed great deal might be urged on the other quetlion, yet, upon the whole, was inclin _.tr i 7 f , pporting the motion. With refpett Noble Secretary's intended Bill, he obferved, • that its paring into a' laN wobld not altogether de pend upon that Houfe. • Lord AUCKLAND Croke fhortly in Explanations' The LORD CHANCELLOR declined going Into a general argument upon certain contiderations eon netted with the fubjett, and adverted to by forte of the Nohle Lords ; hot, in .sefereare to what was throwp out, as to the approaching period of the fer n* he would fay, that even if they could make no more progrefs than four days examination, he thought it would undeniably be a grofs inprilice to Mr. Juitice Fox, if they negletted to fecure to him in much of a further examination. The two witnetfes, Mr. Arm tirong and Mr.Galbraitli, it would-be recolleSed, had only been examined in chief. The very heart they could do would he to fecure the benefit of their exa mination to Mr. Juaice For.

The queition was then put, and Lord Auckland's motion. vas . negatived without a divifion. asusn's DIVORCE. DILL. The Order of the Day refpetting this Bill being read, Counfel and evidence in fupport of the fame ware called to the Bar. When tome additional evj. dance was fhortly put in refpefting the alimony award.. ed Mrs. Tear, and the annuity of tool. which had been fettled on the Lady for her f o i e eafe by. ber I father. Mr. ADAM then (as leading Counfel for this Bill) addreffed their Lordfhips at confiderable length, upon the leading merits of the cafe. He called their Lordfhips attention to the peculiar importance of the cafe, the leading circumflances of which he again recited. He dwelt upon the circumtlanees of the Lady's hufband having Icft and deferted her, and attaching himfelf to another woman with whom he had long refided, had feveral children, and placed at the head of .his family. He oblerved, that the laws of this part of the United Kingdom with re raped to divorces, were different from thole of every other kingdom in Chriftendom. In other countries, divorce was equally acceffible to the hufband and to the wife. In the northern divifion of the ifland, it was effentially different. In Scotland, the divorce a vincula matrimonii could be granted by the Ecelefiaf ticat Courts, and equally at the fitit of either party. He adverted to the cafe of a Lady of exalted rank, of the molt amiable demeanour, and perfectly irre proachable character, who, in confequence of the condul of her hufband, one of the molt illutirious Peers of the realm, in point of family and degree, whore houfe was related to that of royalty in Scot land, the blood of whofe Kings flowed through his veins, was conflrained to take the benefit of there laws ; and yet no perfon even dared to utter a doubt that the character of that amiable and exalted Lady (we believe the Duchefs of Hamilton) was in the tlighted poffible degree affected or fullied by fuch a procedure. The cafe of Mrs. Addifon furnilbed a precedent of their Lordthips own making, though he admitted the incefluous adultery of Mr. Addilon formed a (Ellin& feature in that cafe. He argued, that under every confidetation which he urged, there was a moral impoffibility of Mr. and Mrs. Tenth's coming together; bi b w as not a cafe . of accidental infidelity, but a politive, "fyllematic connedion whh another woman, and the circumflance to which he defcribed Mr. Teuth to have reduced himfelf, which, of cootie, mull affect his ability to pay the alimony,. was, he argued, a Itrong and additional confiders tion in favour of the Bill. The divorce pronounced' a Menlo a 7 boro was by no means a pitied or fuli tient one—many of the hufband's • ights, particular ly with refped to the property, were unimpaired by it. Added to thefe ' was the con fi deration, that by the palling of the Bill, the lady would be placed in the fituation of any other unmarried woman:— Upon thefe various grounds he argued, that the Pc titioner was entitled to a favourable decifion on the part of their Lordthips with refpeift to her bill. The Counfel and witneiles were then ordered to withdraw; after which, the queltion was put, that this Bill be now read a fecond time. The Bilhop of ST. ASAPH rofe—he obferved the (pillion before their Lortlfaip was one of great and peculiar importance. That Houfe was more efpe cially the guardians of the public morals ; and, againfl thefe, nothing, he conceived; could be more detrimental than the frequency of divorces; he was, therefore, upon all occalions, unwilling to concur in 'them ; and, he thought, however hard the cafe might prefs upon a few individuals, it would on the whole, be better if no Bill of the kind were ever paired. With refpeet to the prefent cafe, he mull fay, it exhibited an inftance of the grolfett ind delity ; it was not a tingle ad from a hidden itn pilfc of the pinions, but a deliberate abandonment of a 'well-deferving woman, and a taking of a ftrum pet to Lis arths,ity which he perfevered many years.' 'However, to confider the fulicd on general, and on public grounds, there might be fomething pecu liarly Arens and flaking in a cafe of this kind, to induce the Legiflature to :silent to the prayei of the petition. The cafe of Mrs. Addilon, referred to by -the Learned Counfel, was one totally &Lind from that under confideration. In that cafe it was really a moral impoffibility that the parties could come ; tor nether, as it was proved that the hufband had an adulterous intercourfe with his wife's own fitter..-. Nay, farther, the wife herfelf would be guilty of in 'tett, if the returned to her hufband. There teas no thing of that kind to induce a moral impoffibility in the prefast cafe—nothing' but a throng degree of in ference. They could not, confidently With a moll important duty, confent to relieve the petitioner in the way propofed. However, he had to obferve, he could not underflarid how the lady's circunitlances c ou ld be improved by a diffolution of the marriage,' which would involve a log's of the alimony. Upois the whole, the Learned Prelate's - opinion of the cafe was fuels, as to induce him to move, that, infleadvf " Now," " the Bill thould be read a fecond time that day three months." The had of CAERNARVON expreffed his dilt fent from the opinion of the Learned Prelate, that their Lordfhips paging fuch a Bill as that under car; federation would operate injutiuully upon the public morals. Neither was he aware of any law, or - emy rule of th at Houk; eLicir precluded a wernAil tole addreffing the Leginatitti, sfat'dlataining relief, as ~-st as a man, if toe particular merits of the cite err:tiled her to , it. He thonght this tircumnances of the cafe under oonfidetation (light to induct -their Lordttrips to affent to the Bill. He would afk die Reverend Pielate, whetherit was oseceffary to the public morals, that the hufband of 'the lady in gief ti ~o humid be fuffered to do every thing that could d.forace her, anti derive her of the comforts of life? Watcher it was neccffary, -for the fake of good mo rals, that the lady thluld be driven to feek relief at the door of a praffigatc, who had robbed her of her baband's affedions, and diminiffied his means of maintaining her. After dwelling fhortly on there topics, with tome degree of warmth and feeling, his Lordfhip proceeded to the confideration of cer tain Canonical Laws and Ecciclioftical Regulations, which bore upon the fubjed, particularly a Canon of the year 5603, which he argued was not binding upon the laity, nor upon the clergy, farther than they thought proper, and that Divorces were per mitted by the Divine Law. He then recurred to the fubjed of the Bill, and adverted to the reduced circumstances of the lady's hufband, which waft af fed the payment of the alimony, and argued for the pang of the Bill, which would enable the petitioner to feparate hetfelf from an unworthy hufband. He was not apprehen ve of the Bill's becoming a danger ous precedent, as every cafe would naturally reft upon its own particular merits, and be decided upon by their Lordlhips accordingly. The Bilbop of Sr. ASAPS and the*Piael of Oita- ise,avow feverallisexplained. .. l • - . Lord HAWKESBURY concurred with the Rev. Prelate, in a great deal of what he raid upon the general fubjed. He obferved, that no precedent whatever obtained, of a Bill being granted upon the application of a woman, except in the cafe of Mrs. Addifon, the circumnances of which were not in the Leah applicable to the prefent cafe. In the one in Ranee, a reconciliation between the 'parties was to- , tally out of the queßion; in the prefent, it was merely improbable. A material ditlindion appeared through out. But the general queftion involved conlidera lions which were to be contemplated with a reference to their dices upon fociety ; a diffind rule and min: ciple, with refped to fuch cafes, hitherto obtained : were this to be broken in upon, it would be difficult in future cafes to draw the line. The very good na ture of tome individual Peers would induce them to grant, without fuffirient dile, imination; that, which, in the views he rtferied to, would eventnilly be de trimental and injurious. Lord AUCKLAND made a few general obferva lions in favour of what tell ft um the Rev. Prelate, and the Noble Secretary of State. It was 'a point upon which he teemed to have made up his mind, and he particularly-adverted to the Serious impor tance of the quettion, with reference to its Petting a precedent for future applications. The LORD CHANCELLOR adverteriesiviiat he had hated on a former evening, namely; his op prehenlion that he finuld feel it his painful duty to give a negative to the farther progrefs of the Bill, inlets the Counfel in fupport of the meafure could alter the opinion he then entertained, and that he thought the belt way of giving notice oh the occa lion. With refped to the particular cafe, he never recolleded to hear a.mo;e favourable reptefentatibn given 'of. any woman. But yet, ow theft general grounds of public morality, which bid lisen fo ably adverted to by thofe Noble Lords wholith preceded him, he moll proceed with refped to his affent to the Bill. With regard to the cafe of Nis. Addifon, which had been referred to, it was as dillind from that under confideration, as'any cafe could be, and yet, even that cafe, in its effeds without doors, bad produced confiderable mikhief, as any of. their Lord- Ihips would perceive, fir* they take the trouble to look at certain trials. .With refped to particular parts the allegations on the part of thepetiiioner there were hill open different modes of redrefs dif tind from that of divorce, and which could be re curred to. As to the queltioti before the Houfe, upoO thofe great and leading principles to which he had referred, and the convidion he felt as to the probable, nay almoft certain injurious effects of trenching upon them, he felt it his painful duty to give a negative to the original motion. The Houk then divided • when there appeared for the Bilbop of St. Alapit's Amendment 10—Agatatt it 7—Majority e. The Bill is confequently loft. The Bills recently brought up from the Common; were then fevetally tead a &It time.

JOHN NEWPORT; after Come preliminary Ofervitions; defcribed the nature of the AEU patted in Ireland for the appointtnent of Commiflioners to hear:and determine claims of eompenfation arifing from the Union, and alto for the • compenfations claimed for the lots of elcaive franchife. He Rated, . that time more than enough had elapfed (ince their • appointment, for the completion of all the bufinefs that came before them. He mentioned a number of Orange claims that had been fqbmitted, fuch as the Porter to. his Excellency, and the Rat catcher, who likewife claimed his compenfation for Ind . :6 (offered by the Union • but this was tejelted. He concluded brmoving, " That l it is the opinion of the H-ufe, that the Objeas for which the Board of Commiffion was appointed in Ireland, to hear and determine the ' claims of loyalifts who have (offered during the rik: hellion. (filch claims not being admitted after No. vember 18°61, are, or ought to have been effected, and that their longer continuance is an ufelets even. dilate of public money." • Mr. N: 'VANSITTART raid, that it was the ii. tention of his predeceffor in office to bring in a Bill for the fuppreffion of the Board, and he fhould himfelf take an early opportunity to introduce it. There were force Claims yet before the Board' for compen. ration. As Governitieht did not merit the centure contained in the Refolntion, he fhould now move thi previous- qualm). Mr. W. B. PONSONBY trolled the Right Hon. Gentleman would take an early day for that purpofe, sad that to expeffite the bnfinefs, the Commiffioners Would fit from day to day, and not merely on Rated Mr. VANSITTART explained. He only waited for Tome further inftrattions from Ireland; Mi. CORRY laid, that nothing perfoual to himfeif induced him to rife, as he was in no wife concerned in the inilitotion of this Commiffion. It was thopro. vises of the Seesitary to the Lord. Lieutenatr, and not of the Chancellor of the Excheqher. He thought the Lord Lieutenant unpleafandy fitstated, gs on this occafion there was no Gentleman pretest who could. be fald to reprefept the Irish Government. It was, however, but bare jultice to mention that the COM- . miflioners were by nn means liable to blame for the . ttrangenefs of the claims prefented to them. Their - " - btifinels was to decide upon Each as came before them, and they were not accountable for the impra7 . prieties of the claimants. After a few words from Mr. Wiwouam, and a de claration by Sir Joss Newport-, of his fatisfaaion at what fell from Mr. VANSITTALT, the previ94 ... quellion was put and carried. Sir JOHN NEWPORT then moved a fecond folntion, in nearly the fame terms as the former, but, applicable to the Board of Commiffioners, for com penfations for loft of the ELcAivs Franchife, and li miting their duration to fix might hence. Strangers were ordered to withdraw; but the pre • vious queftioa was carried without a.divifion. semi:isms siecracut. • Mr. CREEVEY moved to difcharge the order of 'the da for to-Morrow, with a view to gain further time, that the Petitioning Freeholders, who row flood in the rts.nt of Sir F. Burdett, might have a lift of thole of Sir F. Burdett's votes which were objeCted to, to which he confidered they were by law • entitled. H. THORNTON had flrong doubts ref:l)dt ing the right of Oleic Petitioners to the lifts required. . He thought, on general principles of equity, lilts thould not be graoted them under filch eirciimliances. This was anew cafe. and the frouA ought to efia; blab a precedent by their decifion up•la it. The queftion was, whether they flood in the place of Sir F. Burdett, when a fitting Member, or when he with drew.his oppofition to the Petition on the other file : he thought they were in later cafe. Sir F. Bur dett had failed' to comply with the injunaion of the Houfe, and had he come before a Committee lie could not have made his ob jedions to Mr. Mainwaring's votes. That inability ought to attach alto upon thofe who flood in his room. The Hon. Member then flamed the bad confequences that might refult from allowing the praaice in this inflance, and condemned the delays that had taken place. for the purpofe, ap -parently of procrallination and .expence. '1 he thirty gays allowed the :Petitioners had been taken full ad vantage of, for they did not appear till the 29th day.
