Lord ROLLE obterved, that in the regi.nent of Local Militia wiech he had the honour to command, nothing of that kind ()CT eurred when they were last year marched to a considerable dis tance from the place at which they were embodied. Viscount smmou rH gave perfect credit to the motives by which she Noble Lord, who bad expressed his doubts, on the tendency of the Bill, was actuated. He did not think, however, that It Was circa to the objections urged against it. The reasons which hadinduced his Majesty's Ministers to bring forward this Bill, was the wish not to have recourse, iE possible; to the ballot tor the regular Militia ; but to raise as many as possible by beat of drum (which plan was proceeding eitft the greatest success), :ii to call in the measure before their Lordships in aid of any deficiency that might ultimately exist. •Anor a tew further observations front Lord Sr. Joust and Lord Ito t.t.c r the Bill was read a third time.

Mr. HORNER said, be still saw no ground for increasing the salary of the Master of the Rolls in Ireland. The only ground stated was, that the Master of the Rolls in- that country should be on the same footing with the Master of the Rolls In Eng- land ; but as the business was not the same, he saw . no reason for this equaltzation of :slaty. - Mr. PEEL stated the universal satisfaction given in Ireland by the present Master of the Rolls, from wriuse decisions Mete had only been three appeals. The increase of salary' was partly as a consideration for being deprived of the power of selling the appoint ment to the office of Six Clerks. Sir SAMUEL ItOMELLY said, since the time Lard Ken)on was Master of the Rolls in England, toe (Alice or Six Clerks had never been sold by any person in that judicial situation. The Act of Henry Vt. declared all sales of that description.illegal, Willi certain exemptions, of which this was not one. He did not think that such a circumstance ought to be taken into consideration in fixin the salary of the Masttr of the Rolls in Ireland. Ihe number of up - peals was no criterion to go by. The number of ap peals, for instance, would not be found to have been so great from the late as from the present Master of the Rolls in England, because the causes before the latter were out °f all proportioq more numerbus. It it was said, that the duties of the Master of the Rolls Ireland were s.' great that the salary could not be considered a sufficient compensation, this might be some ft/4KM for an increase ; but this was not even piete..ded. The duties of the same Judge in Eng land must be at least three times as great. The Ju • c.icial Officers ought to be entirely independent of Uovernasent ' 4r. PL' IL said, the sale of the office of Six Clerks in Itelasid was auttnnised by an Act the lase session,. ;status l 2). 6'lj ati)ERICK FLOOD supported the motion. derjeeut ONSLON conceived, that from the' extent, commerce, and populetion of Ireland, the causes of equity could *as ou propOrtrun to those of Englatal. - Sir JUHN NEWPQRT, after comparing, as fir si hit was able, the respective duties of 'the MAW'S 9t thejtotts tu.k..nolaisil and Ireland, was inclined to *ll .w tree Bill to be brought in, in order not, in the Best instance, to judge the quesotin without inquiry. keit. and Mr. sierjeant Oriel ow explained.' • Mr. J.

EsTATIRI Of OROSNwleli HOSPITAL Mr. C. lvlatiCX, after a Jew prclatory remarks, not disunctly auilible to the galley," moved that there be Paid before the House su) *foam of all the monies pesttkd in repairing, building, rebtailding. and Other inipruveuients, as the estates belonging to Greenwich !'#.; R Nos p itat ih.the Misty of Northumberland, during' ' thr years 1811.18.13, and 1814. Also, an account of the gross rental of the eStates f ani the net proceeds arising fromehe woods, tmderwoads, &c. in the va. rifts lands. • - • Mr. - CItOKER did not object to the production of the accounts, but denied that it would be possible to judge from them, whether the money expended on the estates of the Hospital weir, or were not, pro perly laid out. •It was admitted by all persons that the property was very well managed, and that on that accettnt it was necessary th it large sutras shoidd be laid cut in improvements. The rental hid been doubled since ele ye..ir 1803, iii constquence of the amehoraiion of the estates, and it was not to she sup posed that more money than necessary was employed in buildings or repairing, since wither the Super visor nor the Tenant would be profited by it. Sir M. W. RIDLEY admitted that the manner in which the estates were regulated was excellent, par ticularly that wait of them that consisted of wood.s— The accounts, he had no dnuht, would redound to the credit of those who had the management of the lands. Sir C. MONC l asked how the Supervisor was paid? Mr. CItOKER answered that there were two Su pervisors, who were paid 3 per cent. upon the amount collected. . Mr. BARING redommended that theestatesshould be sold, and the. produce placed in the funds,' by which a peat saving would be made. ' Mr. LONG °NO:led to such a proceeding. Atone' of the Directors of-'Greenwich Hospital, he Wished the accounts to be'l4id before the House, not dooht. ; ing but that they would be satisfactory to allyartics. - The question was then put a .and the several motions were carried, as well as a return of the names of the Agents and Supervisors, &c. Mr. BENNET gave notice, that in the Committee on the Militia Bill on Monday, he would move two clauses-1. For prohibiting corporal punishment— ?. For limiting the power .of the Crown to dismks officers without trial by a Court Martial. STAMP DUTIC3.-11EWSVAPERS. The House having resolved itself into a Committee of Ways. and Means, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER' rise to - propose the Schedule of Stamp Duties, of which he had given not;ce. He observed, that the subjects on which the .additional stamp duties were to be imposed, were lew duties and newspapera.— The first of those Subjects, the tax.ttion of law pro ceedings, was one on which tco much attention could not be bestowed. lie had submitted the; present schedule to several very expel ieocr d persons in the profession of the law, and since the schedule had" been before produced, there were many alterations' m ide in it which would render it less objectionable. One alteration was, that the increased duties were not made progressive on the s:te of the instrument stamped, but that a certain increase of duty on each proceeding should take place. Au objection also had been started against the schedule, which was, that the increase of the duties would have an unequal effect upon the proceedings. iii small courts. This also had been remedied by a diminished scale of du ties applied to t!te small courts. Though (he taxes on law proceedings were' on r etteral grounds objec tionable, yet when it was considered how small a proportion of the expenses in a law-suit consided of law duties, the objections would not ape:4l w gacft as at first might be imagined. In a suit in which the solicitor's bia was LW, the amount ut the of Isw duties, together with the new, was 40s. In another, in which the expense was *35, the stamp duties were £3. There was not, therefore, the same objection to i h ose duties which at first sight seemed so attach to them. As to the dutic, on Newspapers, the first idea which he had was to lay an additional tax of Id. on each paper, but as it was represented that this tax would have the most disadvantageous effect upon the circulation of the papers, he had if:sa ved the increase of the duty on advertisements in proportion to their length, but thouy,li this seemed a lair proposition it was strongly objected ter by the editors of the newspapers, and an additional stamp duty of one halfpenny on each paper, and sixpence on each advertisement, was preferred by the majority of the persons occupied in this line. To protect the, public from an increase of the price of the papers be yond the amount of the tax, art additional discount ' would be allowed to those who only increased the price of their paper from sixpence-halfpenny to seven:. piece,. which discount would not be allowed to thole who incn•ased their price to a greater sum. Although the proprietors of the London papers were not (qua*, willing to coincide in the arrangement which he had made, he was convinced that no eluty would bet more cheerfully paid by the public than an increase of one halfpenny rin the price of a neWipayer. The sale of these publications depending alniost wholly on the situation of pulilic affairs, and es at the present time: and probably for stem years ter come, a laudable curiosity would he d.reeted to the events which were passing, and which exceeded in importance any which for ages before had occurred, the 'additional price of one halt-penny on the pualicattions-thyougb.whirjul" public derived their information would not be grudged by the purchaserc. Sir NEWPORT thought the Tax on Newspa. 'pers injudicious, as tending to stop the sources duOugh which the public derived us information as to their own affairs. The curiosity of die publii was kept r alive proportion of the pressure of public calami ties, from the wish to know when there was a proba bility that the pressure would cease. In the present s situation of affairs the public curiosity ought to be awake as to public events, and the introduction of a -tax, the object of which was to preclude them from ,obtaining information, coulA not tail to sour their minds more than any other T 44 which could be in troduced. Even at the present time, it the extent of the circulation of information by Newspapers were compared with other countries, America for-instance, it WAS a mete 'twiny, The tax alsd would be very MT from bring productive; because the addition which would be made to the price of themes would diminish the circulatios, and thus have a relection the,reveoue. .The Chancellor of the Exchequer:l'6a said that he had guarded the public against an in crease of price beyond the amount of the increased duty, by the allowance of a .discouol thaw: wpm only Uteri:4 sed the price cif their pawl ,otte haltpetry. Now it would always*: it IRMA" of COCU . IOIOI4 lor the proprietors, whether. thgy shouldtegfrive the dis count, or lay on tho rave* cif pee Mis t The ... taxation on Newspapers halt en overdone"already, when the proportion of theaax to the price of the ar ticle was Considered; and he thought it was the worst policy in the Chancellor of the Exchequer to lay an unfair tax on those who might, if niit totally misre present, at least very highly colour every measure he. might hereafter propose. Sir M. RIDLEY said he did not object to the tax on Newspapers on accounrof the effect it would have on the proprietors; but because it would diminish the circulation of information, he should oppose that part of the Resolution. As to the addition of sixpence on adVertisements, he did not object to it. He under stood-the charge, for the insertion of advertisements in the London Papers was very great, and the delay considerable; frr though a laudable practice existed at the offices of inserting advertisements by rotation, yet a practice as much to !se reprobated existed, that advertisements were inserted out of their rotation on the payment of an additional stun. At the last ge neral election, when he had had occasion to adver tise a circular to the freemen of the town which he re presented resident in London, he had selected four London Papers for that purp-ise, and was surprised to find the expense for the insertion of the advertise. ment twice in four Papers amount to £56. Ile was informed, on examining the accounts, that it was the custom, to charge twice as much for advertisements at • the time of a general election, a rule which did, not exist, he believed, with the country Papet s. Ai the duty bore so small a proportion to the charge on advertisements, he should not oppose an additional duty of sixpence. Sir C. MONCK opposed the tax on Newspapers,, ' and thought there could tilt he a time niore ill chosen' to deny the public information on the state of public events, in which they were so deeply interested. • The Resolution imposing Ss. 6d. on every adver tisement was agreed to. and the House resumed, and the Report was (mitred to be received to-morrow. 'rise CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said Le should tring forward the remainder of the scoedule en Friday. Mr. LUSH INGTON brought in a Bill to provide for captured Negroes until their adjudication, which WAS read a first time; to be read at second time on . Friday.—Adjourntd.
