PARLIAMENT/Mr PROCEEDINGS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH il, iaot. had hinted. Not only from humanity but fr.on jultice; he was lure that the Houle would fuppo:t it. The °hie& of it would be, to fulpend, for time to be limited, fo much of the charier of the Ealt India Company as prohibits the landing in Ireland of rice brought from the count:ie , ; tinder their jtirifdielion. A molt feafonahle foprly of food might thus be procoted. The tit (I thing the feainn produced in Ireland was milk. This they had in abundance, and if they had any thins; to mix with it, they might live cottifint:L'ily till the enfuing harveft. Ile conceived it v...,u1d be an eafy- matter to difpatch orders for come of the thips which have been font out to India to land their cargoes in Ireland. He begged pardon for thus troubling the Houle, but he was anxious to pro mote the tranquillity and happinefs of the People of Ireland, and he hoped his motive would prove a ftifficient apology. Mr. RYDER laid, he had heard the llcrnourable Gentleman with uncommon fatisithion, and he was lorry that he had not expreffed thcfe (66: nients earlier, as he would then have fpokcn in fa vour of the Refolution which the Houle had jolt palled. Rice was enumerated among the articles, the importation of which was to be encouraged, and the method pointed out by the worthy Baronet had from the beginning been in contemplation, as it was the only method in which that article could be imported with advantage. lithe worthy Baro net had attended the Committee, he would have known that it wan intended that a Bill of this kind fitould be immediately brought in. Sir JOl4ll PRIMER Paid, it was imporlitile to learn this fi Om the Refolntion itself, and he had not attended the Committee, becaufe he found that he could be of noccrrice to it by attendhr_7. A Mefiage from the Lords informed the Houfe that their Lordthips had agreed to three Naturali zatien Bills, and requefted the Houle to commu nicate to their Lordthips a copy of the Report of the Committee on the Public Records. ~'-Ri; iX4'2NC=..

For this they have often contended thcmfelves, and declared it to be indifpenfible to their diTtity. Whatever the fate of this motion may be, it !hail be fatisfied that I have difcharged my duty. I than have laid to reit an important quettion which has now been long agitated. lam furry that it has fallen to my lot to bring it forward, (ince there are others who could have done fo with much greater ability. I do not atk, however, that my opinion fhould have any weight with the Houfe. Let them consider it with attention, and judge it by its merits. I hope I (hall meet with indulgence in proportion to my deficiencies. As the . quellion has been coolly and dirpaßionately brought forward, let it be coolly and difpaflion ately decided. The queflion is r.ct concerning an individual—whether the Rev. Mr. Horne Tuoke has a right to fit in this Houfe---whether our members mutt wear glad: coats or brown ; but whether we are to preferve the conftitution ellab lifhed by our aneeliors, ar.d from which we have derived fo many bledings whether, at this mo ment, when the fpirit of innovation prevails to fo dangerous an ester;, we full cif part from that fyflem of reprefentation which has lubilfled for ages, and with which all have been hithetti, fatis fied ? We arc now to decide, Sir, whether the, common lasv er the land is to be difcardcd, or tile fad leirons of experience are to be preferred to the wild fytlems propofcd by unprincipled theerifts ? If we arc the guardians of the rights of the peo ple we mutt recollea that we have no authority to transfer them to others. If we conflitute a bar, tier between the crown and the people, we mull be careful that that barrier be not infringed. If we arc one of the three cßatcs of the kingdom, we arc bound to keep a watchful eye over our tights and pit doves. if it is eitablilhed that nn cieigyman tit in Parliament, from what I hr. he ird. I et , li-ontidtnttly for the flipport of the Itt. %%Tend and H, ro traile Gentleman. If this is on antimt•cullorn I call upon him to refill this at umpt to Attai throu;di it. Sir, upon all occa fions it is the duty if the Houk- to fee that its members arc drly ynalife.l ; above all, if at any time it is.. attempted to introduce any one among them the decided friend to innovation, dangerous in his principles and mifchievous in his proaice. Before I can move for a new writ fin Old Sarum I know it is incumbent on me to prove that the prefent Member is ineligible. For this purpofe I mull requeft the attention of the Houfe to the witneffes who now attend to be examined. If I !hall fhew that he not only was aiqually ordained a prieft, but that he aehtally officiated in that ca pacity, I hope it will no longer be doubted that the Reverned and Honourable Gentleman cannot be received into this Houfe. lam fir from wifh ing the Houfe to come blindly to this decilion. As foon as the witneffes are examined, it is my intention to move for a &led Committee to fearch for precedents, and upon their Report I (hall ground my principal motion. I (hall now con clude by moving that Mr. Voucher be called to the bar. HOUSE OF LORDS, TUESDA7, MARCH zo. A Private Bill an 4 feveral Naturalization Bills wet read a ftajc earh. _ _ The Earl of SUFFOLK Paid, as a Noble Lord whom he law in his place (Lord Darnley) had fome weeks face given notice of his intention to bring forward a motion of very great importance, he wifhed to know when they might exited to be called upon for the difcullion, becaufe he thought the fubjel extremely preding. The Earl of DARNLEY laid, if the Noble garl had done him the honour to linen to him when he had laft mentioned the fubjeft, and difcharged the order for his motion's coming on, he would have heard him fay that it was extremely irk fome to trouble the Houfe fo repeatedly, but that motives of decency and milled made it ne ceffary for him to fufpend his intention till after certain communications from authority fhould have been made to that Houfe, but that whenever he faw an occation offer, when he thought he could continently with that decency and refpeet which he profeffed, bring it forwatd, he certainly would, and was determined not to acquiefce in the with cF any inil;vidual Peer, to have it pollponed any lens! er.

Sir C. BlinsultY objeeted to its being read. He faierit would bear extremely heavy on the lower orders of the people. Ever since the Commutation Aft, Bohm had been diluted by them, and they had made ufe of Congon. Of this there could be no doubt, as there was more of the lan fold at the Company's fides, than Of all the reit put together. It was indeed ilranc that an Englifh pedant (honk{ fend to the taft or Well Indies for his breakftt(l. Tea and fugar neverthelefs had become necefFtrie-:, and it would be cru-I to render them unattainable. He therefore tithed that the tax of lc per cent. should be impufed un all tc:ts above 3s. Cd. inftcad of as. 6d. Mr. Rosa laid, he underflood that Poltea was Itfed excluftvely• by the lower ord-rs, who thus would not fuller at all. g c many ufel mixture of one-third Ccatgatt and the rclt Bohea. The Tax upon Coiujou was a}d. a pound, lb that even there would not be obliged to pay above a penny a pound for their tea more than they do at prefent. Against this Tax not a finglc complaint had been made; and he fhould be glad to know how fuch a fum could be mired without producing greater inconvenience. By the amendment pro poled, the revenue would lofe 214,0001. a-year. The Report was agreed to, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. Mr. BRAGGE reported the Refolution, by which all tenants at rack-rent of a farm not worth more than 201. a-year, and who do not keep more horfcs than two, arc exempted from the new duty impofed upon agricultural horfcs. Colonel PORTER laid, that this would prove no relief whatever to the fmall farmers in Wales, as they are obliged to employ a great number of horfes in proportion to the extent of their farms. He therefore propofcd that all farmers fhoutd he exempted who pay lets than soh a-year. A converfation enfited between Mr. Rife, 1 1 .1 r. Harrifon, Colonel Porter, and Mr. Speaker; after which the Refolution was agreed to, and ordered to be provided for by the Committee on the Horfe Duty Bill. On the motion of Lord William Rllfrell, the Bill for the Relief of the Poor, introduced by his Lot 1- fhip, was ordered to be committed to-morrow. AIR. HORNE TOOliell ELECTION.

Mr. TRENCH replied, that the beelines at the Ira affizes was very different from that of the affixes in this country. There they arranged the affairs of the diftrid, and voted away confider able fnms of money. He should have thought that leave was unncceffary, though it was more refpfaful to the Houfc to alk it. Mr. SHERIDAN.—What the Hon. Gentleman rays may be all very true • but I would beg leave to remind him that fome /mall fums of money are likewife voted away in this Houk. The Motion was then agreed to. Sir }JENNY MILDMAY rofe to draw the litten tion of the Houfe to the fubjed of Tithes, and dwelt for Come time upon the wretchednefs occafioned by the prefect fcarcity. This, he added; might very loon recur. We had been obliged to import Corn from abroad to a greater and greater extent for many years, and were ”nw entirely dependent upon foreign countries. The expedients which had been hitherto adopted were merely palliatives, and it was only by a pro- per regulation of the payment of tithes that the evil could be radically cured. He then pointed out the many inconveniencies attending the prefect fyficm, and the benefits to be derived from amend ing it. He concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill to enable the clergy to let 'cafes of their tithes for a time to be limited, under certain re ftrietions.—Leave was granted. The Houfe then went into a Committee to con fider the third Report of the Committee on the High Price of Provifions. Mr. RYDER find, the meafure recommended by the Re port was the •eztenlion of die bounties upon grainimported into Ireland now payable upon that imported into Great Britain. Though the price was not equally high in that country, the de ficiency was equally great. However, it would not be porlible on this account to make the regula -1 tions in both the fame, but all fhould be done i which was poilible to place them on an equal footing. All difeouragement to the corn merchant to fend his cargoes thither fhould be removed, and he ought there to have an equal fccurity again( lofs. Mr. Ryder, after a few more obfervanons of the fame tendency, concluded by moving, that it is expedient that bounties fimilar to thole grant ed on wheat, barley, oats, rye, and rice, import ed into Great Britain, be extended to Ireland un der certain reftrielious. Sir JOHN PARNELL reprefented the fcarcity in Ireland to be very great, and the necellity for re lief to be urgent in the extreme. He approved of the meafures of the Committee, but in this , fiance he thought there was not time to wait for the flow operation of the plan they pmpofed. It wasa queftion of famine, and fomething muft be inflantly done. Though the feelings of the Irifh might thus be gratified, they would receive no ef fetnial fervice. When the Report was made, he should fuggeft ameafure of which he had thought for fame time, and which he was Cure would be much more efficacious. The Refolutian was then agreed to, and ordered to be reported to-morrow.
