PARLIA mcvrARY PROCEEDINGS. ..-...-- HOUSE OF LORDS, FEBRUARY 7. Mr. Amman, from the Treasury, presented Accounts of the Pen dons granted out of the Scotch Civil List; Reports from the Com- 1 anissinaers of the Northern Lights, Papers relative to the Herring Fisheries, and Receipts of the Revenue.—Laid on the table. The Earl of LIVERPOOL presented his Majesty's Answer to the Address, which was read by the Lose Cithsocattioa, to the fol lowing effect : My Loses—l thank you for your loyal and dutiful Address on the prosperous state of the Kingdom, and for your assurance of cordial co-operation with me in all measures necessary to be taken, &c. 44 G. R." His Majesty's Answer was ordered to be entered upon the Viscount CLIFDEN wished to correct a mlatatement which had appeared in one of the Morning Papers, of what he had said last Thursday respecting the opposition sheens by a Right Rev. Prelate to the Bible Society. - The Report in that Paper bad at tributed that opposition to the Archbishop of Team; now as that Prelate bad, on the contrary, proved &lenity to the circulation of the Scriptures, he wished him not to be subjected to an unfounded 'Wputation, and had no other object hi troubling their Lordships. The Marquis of LANSDOWN wished to put a question to the Noble Earl opposite. Their Lordships would recollect that when that Noble Earl had moved the appointment of a Committee last year, to inquire into the state of Ireland, the operation of the Inquiry had not been extended to all parts of that country, nor to the proceedings of the Catholic Board. He now wished to know, whether, in renewing the inquiry this year, it was the intention of his Majesty's Ministers to carry it further? The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, that it was his intention, in moving the appointment of a Committee on Thursday next, to make the inquiry general, and to propose that it be extended to every part of Ireland. The Marquis of LANSDOWN had understood, from what passed In the debate of Thursday last, that his Majesty's Ministers d:d not intend to lay upon their Lordships table, any communica tions respecting the proceedings of the Catholic Association. He wished to know whether this were the fact ? as on the nature of their answer would depend the necessity of his troubling their Lord ships with a motion. The Earl of LIVERPOOL replied, that it was nut the inten tion of his Majesty's Government to lay say communications of that nature before the House. The Marquis of LANSDOWN then gaystootiee, that be should move to-m.irmw that an humble Address be presented to his Ma ksty, praying that he might be pleased to order copies or extracts of all Dispatches received by his Majesty's Government from the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland respecting Catholic and Political Asso ciations in that country. Ile then moved that the Lords be sum snoned.—Ordered. Lord COLCHESTER presented the Report of the Committee appointed to inquire into the Duties and Offices connected with Parliament.—Laid on the table. Earl GROSVENOR said he anticipated much benefit from the tesommendations contained in that report, and congratulated their Lordships on the fact of such a Committee having been appointed. SCOTCH JUDICATUEE—JOINT STOCK COMPANIES. The LORD CHANCELLOR. reminded their Lord ships that a Bill had passed that House last year, for the better regulation of judicature in Scotland. It had not been completed without undergoing the most full and diligent consideration. Commissioners- had been selected, consisting-di the persons most able to eater into all the difficulties of the subject. 'They had made their Report to the House, and that Report bad bees subjected to the examination of a Committee, 'to ascer tain whether it would be proper that its recommenda tions be carried into effect by Act of Parliament ? 'fbir Committee had been saibfiell that they might be em bodied into a Bill, and a Bill embodying them bad been proposed, and adopted by their Lordships at a late period of the Session. In the 'other House; however, the measure had undergone such alterations, in eons*: quence of certain publications which had appeased at the time, that on its return to their Lordships they had rot been agreed to, and the Bill had been su&red to drop. It would be inconsistent with the dignity of that House to bring in a Bill to amend the state of Judi cature in Scotland on differeast grounds from the last.— He should, therefore, advise that the Bill be brought in exactly in the same form as that/A last year, and then, if any new lights broke in upon the subject, it would be competent for the Committee to make what alte rations mettle considered necessary. He had made some observations last Thursday, respecting Joint Stock Companies, and should now explain the object of the measure which it was his intention to introduce. But he wished previously to explain, that in point of fact he was not aware at the time when he bad spoken-on that subject, that there was a question in the Court of King's 13epch of great importance, relative to Joint Stock Com anies, and that the Judges of that Court gave their judgment the very day that his observations were made. V. hat he should propose would embrace all Companies c on s tituted by King's Charter or Act-of Parliament.— ' , Whatever the law might be, it could not be permitted that the pubic should stand in this situationf that be- Clown or of Parliament had red or Joint Stock Company , sell at an enormous profit the pro which was nothing more nor less own benefit.

As there is a mistake in the printed answer of his MAJeSTY to the Address of the House of Commons, we subjoin a correct copy, rhich was as follows: " I receive wish 'UM:hest satisfactlea this loyal and dutiful Address. " Your cordial concurrarce ia the principles which I have de elared, and your assurances of cooperation with respect to the objects which I have recommended to your attention, afford me the surest pledge that I shall be enabled, under the favour of Draw Pawpaws, effectually to uphold the honour and interests of my Kingdom, and to preserve to my subjects the blessings which thee- lan Many observations have lately been vaade;opon what fuller effect tbi provisions of an Act which now exists, to the penalties of which the patties engaging in these speculationcare considered liable. It is not our present intention to enter into the question whether or' not that Act is applicable to the present cue, nor the circumstances under which it was passed in the reign of Ovules the First but we shall Consider, whether, if that Act is applicable, it would not rather be expedient and wise to repeal it, than to introduce any new legislative measure to extend its operation ? To nis it appears rather inconsistent, that at a time when iestrictions upon trade are denounced as injurious, and as suit have been generally removed, it should be proposed to put new restrictions on the employment of capital, the foundation and twee of all advantageous trafficking. We do not mean to deny that various schemes have been set on foot, which may have been bottomed on the expectation of advantage to an interested few—and that, ultimately, such schemes may fail ; but in the case of such it is to be observed, that capitalists are too shy of embarking their money in concerns which do not hold out a reasonable expectation of an adequate return ; and that consequently no great progress could be made in the object of the speculations before the failure would be 'manifest, and the parties would abandon it with the trifling loss of their small deposit ; for no such scheme would reach a high premium, and the deposit, or a part of it, would be the only loss. Such, however, is not the foundation on which many, if not nearly pll of the present speculations rest. They are generally formed on substantial grounds, which afford a fair and reasonable expectation of success, it capital be employed upon them ; and while, on the ooe hand, capital will not be invested in them, unless such reasonable and solid prospect of advantageous employ. ment be offered, on the other ; no legislative enact ment could prevent its being so employed, if such a return should be likely to result. Many of the schemes also, are likely to be productive of advantagesl to society in general, by the superior comforts and fa-, cilities which they will give rise to; and the expendi., ture among ourselves of such large sums, cannot fail,' by the employment which they will afford to our manu facturers and labouring classes, to give a flesh impulse to trade, and benefit the condition of the lower orders. For example, let us look at the Companies for Rail ways, Iron-works, Gas-works, Steam-machines, &e. and reflect upon the benefits which must result to the nation from the employment of capital on these in ternal objects; not to mention the advantages likely to arise to the public in certain districts, from Milk and ' Fish Companies ; and to the poor from Investment and Equitable Loan Banks. In all these speculations, no expectation is held oat of enormous gain, and conse ;quently no apprehension of their becoming hubbies can !be entertained. Nothing is looked hir but the fair employment of. capital, with a remunerating return to all engaged ; and it such a return be not nearly certain, we may be sure such undertakings will not be persevered in. If, on the contrary, capital can be so employed usefully and beneficially, why should restrictions or difficulties he put in the way of it? We know that ill concerns in which large capitals are embarked, can be carried on more beneficially than those with:smaller capitals, and if, by a number of individuals. uniting their means in such undettakings, a larger return can be produced than in the same extent of business with less means, it snust be for the advantage of the community at large to encourage, rather than to discountenance, associa• tions of this nature. If, however, these Companies are to be put down, or .not to be sanctioned unless a greater portion of their capital Ise paid up, than they have the means of em ploying, some of the most beneficial Establishments existing in society, must be broken up—witness the Fire- 1 Offices and the Proprietary Life Insurance Companies. This is too monstrous a proposition to be entertained, and we do hbpe that Parliament, in its wisdom, will not lightly, nor without the deepest consideration, in, troduce new enactments to clog and impede the em ployment of our own capital in our own country: Iti deed, the .very List of Directors of these Companies,' which first appeared in a Sunday Paper, and was co. pied by one of our cotemporaries yesterday, comprises so many persons distinguished for character, fortune, and talent, that we are sanguine enough to believe that no hasty opinion, or long-barboured prejudice, will be able to overcome the wood sense and supetior views of and men. able . practical , These hasty observations of course do not apply to foreign speculations (which, indeed, no legislative mea sure could interfere with), and on these we shall offer a few remarks shortly. Lord STRANOZORD . I l assr-to the Ottoman Porte appears to have beep of a mast active nature; he not only bad to settle the long-pending differences be tween Russia and Turkey, but he was also charged with negociatiens from other Powers. The Piedmontese Ga. tette of the 25th ult. contains,at great length,the official documents relative to the treaty concluded by the King of SARDINIA with the Sublime Porte, which was nego ciated by Lord STRANG/FORM The treaty is iu fifteen articles. The preamble states, that his Majesty CHARLES FRU; King of Sardinia, &c. &c. and his Imperial Ma jesty Sultan MARKIN:O HAir 11. the greatest of Sultans, .most illustrious of the Ottomans, &c. &c. equally desi rous of establishing durable friendship and peace be their tetiseettre Mats, having tisalveti to tea. a commercial treaty, tin the moidi of thOsit iy misting with other Powers, hive appointed, dill of Saantatn,Lord STRANG#OIIII, and tisk Sb LIM it* Plenipotentiaries, to negociate the same. By this treaty, ships bearini the Sardinian flag were admitted to the mivigation of the Black Sea. The Suasion Consuls are to enjoy the sante privileges and aemptions from various duties, as the Consuls of other European Powers, and the most perlkct security is promised Id the merchants and subjects of the two Powers tetra procally, in each other's dominions. Two Notes from Lord STRANGFORD to the Sardinian Mitiibtry,announce; one, the conclusion of the treaty, and the other, that of specific arrangement, by v hich the Turkish Govern:. Meat agrees that all articles of Turkish produce and manufacture, imported into the Sardinian dominions; 'shall pay the same duties as similar articles from other countries. Brussels Papers to the 6th inst. reached us this fore , noon. An article from Vienna, of the 24th inst. states, that the mission of Mr. STRATTON. CANNING to Vienna hai not had'the success that was hoped from it. The following are extracts: BRUSSELS, JANUARY SI. ' We hear from the frontiers of France, that a commis sion, consisting of superior Officers of Artillery and End' gineers, will inspect, ie the course of next month, all ' the fortresses on the Northern frontiers, from Strasburg 'to Dunkirk. This commission will have to examine the state of the fortifications of all the fortresses, the. establishments of the artillery, the arsenals, the maga zines and stores, and to give a circumstantial report to the Minister of War. VIENNA, JANUARY 24. It is asserted in our diplomatic circles, that the mis. sion of Mr. Stratford Canning has not had the success that was expected from it at London ; and that Prince Metternich pertinaciously adheres to his system, relative to the :MN quo, in the affairs of Turkey, at least provi sionally, and till the Court of Russia shall have posi• tively explained itself on the proposals of England with respect to the Greeks. The following intelligence from Jamaica, we copy from the Glasgow Courier of Thursday, received this morning. We trust that the fears of the Colonists, as to an insurrection, are unfounded " Letters by a Jamaica Mail were received in Glas• gow this morning. The dates from Kingston are of the 27th December. 0 Another revolt amongst our Black brethren bp taken place at Truxillo, and a general massacre of the Whites who could not effect their escape, has unfortu "nirtely taken place. Some of those who were fortu nate enough to escape, have reached Honduras in the greatest distress. " We regret to state, that considerable alarm pre vailed in Jamaica, under the fear of another attempt at revolt by the slaves, last Christmas holidays. A prin cipal ringleader in the late revolt had been apprehended, and given important information regarding the future .riews of the discontented Blacks, which were to effect another rising at Christmas. The Militia ware called out and tranquillity had been preserved, but much As• - content continued in the minds of the more daring and turbulent slaves, and the conviction in their mind was deeply rooted, that the Proclamation issued by the King was a forgery. The signal for hostilities was to be setting fire to the trash-houses on different estates. Much apprehension was entertained for the future, par ticularly for the discussions expected to take place in the British Parliament.
