FlrnitsALS OF ATTAINDERS. . The Earl of LIVERPOOL moved the 0...1er of the Day on the Bills presented yesterday, to rev • •he re. spective Attainders of the• Earl of Mar, s•w of John Francis Eiskiiie, Esri: of the Earl, of Kr..:-:.ure, cestor of John Gordon, rsq. of the Eat lof •ivallau and Perth, ancestor of James Diatom:mid, E.q..an , l of Lord Baton Nairne, ancestor of William Nairie,Ebq. and also for the reversal of attainder of the Earl of Stafford.—The motion for the h ccond reading being put. The Earl of RADNOR objected to the title of the Bill respecting the Eatl of Nairne, which in his o ; .iniott did not sufficiently set fo:th the objects cf the Buil. The Earl of LIVERPOOL, in reply, said that any such deficiency in the title *of the Bill famished no rea son why their Lordships should not go to a second read ing : when Ole measure had proceeded to that stage, he shou!d propose it to be referred to a Committee, in which tl , e titie could be amended. The Eirl of LAUDERDALE said, that he wished to see the respective claims established by evidence be fore their Lordships, as, for anything the House knew, they were about to do that which might prove injurious to other claims, the assentors of which might hereafter be found Petitioners for redress at the bar. The Earl of LIVERPOOL did not wish their Lord ships to do anything at the present time which could not he proved to have been done on former occasions in similar circumstances; but he must say iot such Oc casions precedent and custom were the bes guides. If it had been customary in such cases to exit-. e the va lidity of claims in the tisst instance, their Lordships ought to do so now. If it were otherwise, as he believed was the case in the restorations of Captain Fitzgerald and the Earl of Doncaster, then, certainly their Lord ships ought to take the present Bills in their regular course. He could only add, amidst all variations of opinion, that he was willing to consent to the appoint ment of a Select Committee empowered to search for precedents, and, if necessary, to call for evidence. He had not introduced the present Bills lightly ; they were framed with the consent and under the sanction of his Noble and Learned Friend on the Woolsack; and who he doubted not had made up his mind as to the result. Viscount MELVILLE, in defence of the Bills, re ferred to the Act passed for restoring Francis, Dake of Buccleugh. This Act even went further than the re storation of the family claims, for it recited all their former titles which had been attainted and disputed. In the Buccleugh case formerly, as it the Fitzgerald case latterly, no proofs were ever sought for the purpose of substantiating the claims on eit'hcr side. Lord HOLLAND was desirous tltat the proceedings of their Lot dships should be regulated by no other Loh: than that of right reason ; and, upon this in inciple, he was inclined to think that the claimants ought in the • first instance to establi,h their tight. Ile recollected, most perfectly, one occasion (the Fitzgerald case) to which the Noble Viscount had just referred ; it was a case in which lie felt much and deeply interested, and perhaps too much so to investigate with strictness; bin a distinction was to he drawn between a restitution in "mood and this species of restitution in title. -With re spect to the Bill which went to reverse the attainder on Lord Stafford, it had his most cordial approb Lion.* The Earl of II A BROW BY defended tote menial e. Lord REDESDALE was struck with tiie circum stance that one of the Bills (the Strathallan ciaim)'nbt only went to restore, but supposed the descendant of that family the rightful heir, and theteby set aside all other claims, which supposition titer-Lordships might be called to revere at thin'. own Bar; but in the•Buc cleugh case the claimant was allowed to be the legiti mate heir, and therefore there was no t2itf.culty in ad mitting his claim. He wished that the present Bills might he referred to a Speci.il Committee, in order to examine the recitals they centatined; for though he be lieved there would be no great difficulty in proving those recitals, it was better to examine into them. The LORD CHANCELLOR at considerable length aescribed'the manner in which his duty had called upon him to act in the present instance. All claimants to Peerages were in the habit of api-lying in the first in stance to the holder of the Great Seal, who was ern powesed to call for evidence in support of such claim or claims, but who never did call for such evidence un less in a very difficult case. It then became the duty of an individual in his situation to advise the Crown to apply to the Ilouse of Lords. If, after this, a Bill for the reversal of attainder came authenticated to their Lordships by the King's Sign Manual, the person so claiming having applied to the Crown, he (the Lord criancenui) ti,cii actsA/Trbil - trlrti — re.r 4 Wl•vaDa;&r. in the present instance the applications for restorations to family honours were made on the ground of the loyal services and good conduct, for a loog series of years, ' of the descendants of those who had unfortunately for ' feited them. He could only say, that the evidence on 'the part of the claimants had been subinizted to the At 4orney and Solicitor General, both of whom recom mended, in consequence, the exercise of the restorative power of the Crown ; and he hoped that their Lord ships would not be induced, on partial grounds, to ob struct the exercise of this prerogative of the Crown.— Having said this much, he was clearly of opinion that their Lordships would.oot act wisely if they neglected to look into precedents on this occasion, though not so as directly to interfere with the rights of the Crown; and upou the whole, it might he better to ws ; m ilate the present cases to the Fitvieraid c.!se, in ,shish, if recol lection still served him, their Lordships trust leinember that certain proofs were not required.

Earl GREY presented a Petition front the Operative Weavers Of Glasgow, praying f,.r the repeal of the Combination Laws. tic also presented a Petition front the town and nt i3lih,),lritooil of Exe ter, in favour of the County Courts Bill. The Noble li: irl aided, that be was entrusted with a Petition, to the subject of which he had called their Lordships' attention some years ago, and which he then regarded as one of much importance to the Public. What ever he had since heard, combined with some reflectintis on the subject, bad convinced him of the necessity of eoncediug to the prayer or in. Paper •Isss ossosst.:o 7 s‘f *Ls. Petitioners were inhabitants of the City of Westminster, who prayed for some alteration iu the Law of Libel as it respected the power of the Magistrates, so far as related to cases (and the Peti tioners cited the case of Mr. Hunt as a particular instance) where Magistrates were entrusted with the arbitrary power of committal in cases of libel, or of holding to bail.—The Petition was then read, and ordered to lie on the table of the House. The Marquis of DOWNSIIIR E said that he had to present a Petition from a most respectable Gentleman, whose humanity and patriotism had been long known to the country at large, and who bad lately turned his attention more particularly to Ireland, and who thought that the extension of the system which he had intro duced in Scotland, with respect to those particular parts of Ireland which he described, would be beneficial to the United Kingdom. The Petition was from Robert Owen, Esq. of New Lanark, who stated, as he had mentioned, that the beneficial effects which his system had already produced in Scotland was calcul a t ed to p roduce similar effects in other parts. It was also the wish of the Peti tioner that their Lordships should appoint a Select Committee to examine various plans which the Petitioner was prepared to submit fur the amelioration of the state of Ireland. The Noble Marquis said that although he did not entirely approve of the plan, he had felt it his duty to present the Petition to the House ; which was ac cordingly read and laid upon the table. The Earl of LA UDERDA LF.—I can only state to your Lord ships that I formerly spent five hours in examining Mr. Owen's plan ; and my opinion WAS delivered in nearly these words-111A7 thought it might possibly do good, but then, on the other hand, I was certain nu European Government could long subsist under it. Mr. Owen, for whom I entertain much personal respect, said, to the best of my recollection, in reply to my remark—" That is ex actly my plan."
