The Earl of RA DNOR was about to offer his opinion on the subject, when The LOUD CHANCELLOR interposed. He observed that the present Mil, as far as it res•sected the Stafford Peerage, went merely to reverse the attainder that had passed on it ; but it could not possibly affect the claims of any one to the title, if they were properly made out. Mr. 111110GDFN and others brought up the Assesses! Taxes 1:11I, the Customs (Coals and Linen) Duties Bill, the Marine !molt:pee Cum pane's Bill, the Irish Mining Company's Bill, the Menehester t;as Light Bill, the Bromptun-square Improvement Bill, and sevetal Private Bills, which were afterwards read a first time.

The Camden Town Roads kill was read a third time, passed, and sent to the ether (louse. The Earl of stiA vrEsnumr, who now entered the House, presented a Petition from the Alinister and Eiders of the Presby tery of Ayr, in Scotland, who prayed that their Lordships would not pass into a law the Bill now in progret.s from the other House, for granting relief to the Scottish Poor. Lord 1 JOLLA ND said, that he held in li!s hand a Petition - of muck moment at the present time, anal which the repeetabie per sons who ha;.l signed it were anxious to have presented iodic I louse. The Petition was from certain Protestant Dissenters of different denominations resident in the City of Chichester and its vicinity, who prayed to be relieved from the enactntents of the 13th and 'eStlt of Charles 11. commonly called the Corporation and Test Acts. Ile felt perfectly in unison with the prayer of the petitioners; for the more he reflected on the restrictions which those Acts imposed on conscientious and scrupulous minds, the more be was convinced that HOUSE OF COMMONS. The House was summoned to the House of Peers to hear the Royal Assent given, by Commission, to several Bills. See the Lords. • The Hammersmith Bridge Bill was read a third time and passed.

BUXTON moved the Order of the Day for the second reading of the Marine Insurance Bill. The Order of the Day having been read, Mr. 6 ItEN FELL said he understood that Counsel were in at tendance to be heard against the second reading of the Bill. He apprehended that the present was the time for calling them in. The SPEAKER said the order et proceeding required that bee I fore Counsel were called in the House should first decide upon the question that the Bill be now read a second time. Mr. GREN FELL said it was important, bt fore proceeding to debate the question, teat they should hear the areumeuts Coun sel had to offer. The question was then put that the Bill he now read a second time, which was agreed to without a divisit n. The following Counsel were then called to the bar t—Mr.Serjeant 1309ANLarYT, Mr. Sergeant TARDY, Mr. MADAM, Mr. ADAM, Mr. Citoss, and Mr. AILDKASOIC. Mr. Serjeant Brisseteter was first heard on the part of the Sun Insurence Company. Mr. Maws followed for the London Insu rance Company. Mr. MARRY.. TT appeared (or the Underwriters, and Mr. Serjt ant 'fenny for the Brokers at Lloyd's. I‘lr. F. BUXTON said, that notwithstanding the •• areuinetor uh Conioel, his opinion was not changed as the pint - ate: yOl adopting the n.easure %%1110 was under the consideration of the Maio. Toe Honourable Member pi oceeded to spew the aOviintages which would accrue front the Bill being suffered to pass into a law, and he contended that the two Companies which were laverse to it would not suffer from its adoption. lie then adverted to a number of .policies of insurance, amounting to 1.50,090/. which were effected at Lloyd's, and from many of the underwriters dying or becoming insolvent before the assurance money was paid, a nutn her of individuals suffered. lie, h. wcver, did not in tand to can any reflection unon Lloyd's ; far from k. What he complained of was theagteat inconveniency to wliteli patties %vete subject by such means. He was sati:fied that if Joint Stock Companies were establi,hed .r the purpose of effectitig mat ine insurances, much and great inconvenienc y tenni,' be avoided. One advantage amoty many would be secured by an establish:tient of the desciiinioa named, which was, that in a Company cousi..ting of pelhaps a thou sand individuals, they would ail be reqionsible for the property insured ; whereas at Iloyil's there might not be more than twenty persons responsible. He conceived that if the restrictions were removed this country might become the mart of the world for effect ing insurances. It was well knoon that foreigners wouli rather effect insurances with tretchants than with the eetablititment at Lloyd'.. With respect to the char tered rights of the Companies in questian, he should say but little; it seas not his intentiett in enter into the on gin of theirs. The late .
