Hose. Mr. Mona, Ile, FIROUNOW. Ile. CALCIUM and Lord lionscs, the House divided, when OHM appistred— For the Motion • . Against it • • • 131 Majority against the Motion . —79 Air. MIME moved for a Return of all Pensions granted under the y©s Pensions Acts 57th of Geo. 111. chap. 65, stating the Dames of an aielersons and the rums granted.—Ordered. COURTS OF CHANOZRY. Mr. SUGDEN moved for leave to bring in a Bill for repealing the Act 6th Geo. IV. chap. 74, relating to pro perty in Infants and Lunatics, and for amending the rovisions thereof. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman Aaied that the measure was intended to carry into effect 's ome of the recommendations respecting the law and racticein equity. He professed himself anxious to , u rther the progress of necessary reform, and said that niany of the evils which had been unfairly charged nn the Judges in the Courts of Chancery were at • .butable to the Laws, and it rested with that House ,elieve the country from the odium and the Wenn , enience derived from their defective state. Yo. TWISS seconded the motion. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR said, that he should always be 'eddy to lend his support to any reform of the law, or t the abuses exi,ting in the Courts of Equity. Until s omething was done to relieve the suitors in those Courts from the grievances under which they had so :org laboured, he should never cease to call .the atten ii—, of th..t House and of the country to the subject. 'The motion was then agreed to. cou nnewratiox Mt.; The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the Order o! the Day for going into Committee, upon the Corn Importation The House went into Committee, and some of the Resolutioss were agreed to. Mr. W. WHITMORE moved the following scale as al amendment to that contained in the Bill:—When the price of wheat shall be 50s. and under 511.- a :duty of 11. For every shilling in price above fifty, a decrease ;.1 the duty. of two shillings, until the price shall be 35, and from that to a price not exceeding 655. a fixed yof 10s. Above 65 s. for every increase of Is. in price I:.e duttio be diminished 2s. Mail the price shall have te4ched7cis. when the duty shall remain at Is. When the price descends below 50s. for every decrease of Is. the duty to increase 2s. He submitted this scale to the Committee, as being, in his opinion, the most equitable to all the interests of. the country. said, that the arguments which had been esed in favour of the scale which the House had ..4.lopteti, were a sufficient answer to the proposition of' the Honourable Member. He was favourable to. the principles siker trade, but he thought the Government would have shown a very incorrect sense of its duty if it had proposed so low a scale of protection to the land as tharlidirrecornmended to the Committee. Tbe'Aillendonent was then, put, and aegadied without *division. Uponth4 fifing the places from which the averages" sbaU aitikea; • Mr:PORTMAN foie to move that Lopdon be es c!uded from the list. His reason for objecting to UM. Jon mrsottat it was a place at-whidi the real price of British Corn could not be fairly obtained, because in that market a. large quantity,nf Foreign Corn most always, be 501 d.... Another objection was, that the charges of freight-inland or coastwise were added to the pike, and theindrket was -exceedingly liable to fluc tuation. He therefore moved that the port of London be ,truck out. Mr. F. LEWIS said the Committee would see that to . alter any of the cireemsanoes upon Which the scale had been cal, elated. WOOkd be, to alter the whole measure. A novelty had now crept into the discussion of this sAject, which be was•sare was never thought of in .the i!istassions of 1815. It was the idea that than laws were only intended to protect the grower and 'hot the consumer. Agair.st. .this doctrine he protested; and hoped it would never be sa nctiotvedby that.Hoase. AU the dealers in corn were of 'opinion that.foreign tot/ should not be included in the avetwges. • Mr. CURTEIS said the svesages, as they were takell y de:l not give a fair estimate of the prices grower received icr his corw,:and be thought the system. should be altered, in order that the public might have.* correct, account.of the piiterially received for corm Colonel SIBTHORPE said be should vote for the motion of the Member. for i Dorsetshire.

The House had agreed.to the duties, upon , the trotted that the averages were to be taken fairly.— Theieefliges were not taken fairly. The grower must be Ifedtticred, and- that protection would benefit the coeitimetf . In common fairness the averages ought to be Correctly taken, and.the public should not suppose that he grower obtained a larger price for his corn O mit* really received.

LEWIS opposed the modal. CIJ ETE IS expressed some surprise that the Irish MiMl)eis did not speak upon this proposition, which wapap Of considerable interest to Ireland. 1 4.FITZGEB.A.LD said, the question certainly was interesting to behead, and be knew not upon what ground lieland was to be treated as a foreign country. beltod produced oats of an improved quality, and he a r 't'4ll)tought the best way to stop the arrival of Irish Paupers in .

He did not knOw wli.st right they bad to exclude Ireland from the ave. Livs. It was inconsistent with the Union, and in n to her agriculture. The motion was then riegatived.

Genial Sir R. FERGUSON rose on the Order of the Day for the second reading of the Petitions Act Amendment Bill, and directed the attention of the House tb the tepott of a speech in that House, which did not come in the way of common reports, and was, in his opinion, to be taken as a COTTett statement of In Hon. Member's speech. No man bad more respect for the Hon. Member for Limerick than himself; but .he thou g h t the Honourable Member had not displayed hi 'twat judgment in making the speech to which be . Alluded. The lioe. Member for Liaxrick bad imputed motives of the most unworthy character to the Minority on the grant to the family of lite Mr. Canning.— He codld -tell the Honourable Mernber-thatise.vise, a vote on the occasion with an honourable4eeling.' It was impassible to attribute to those who fotiod the minority any improper motives. He did not wish to bring the character of an individual distinguished in this country forward. He should be the' last to -display a want of respect for the dead; but if he was - taunted about his vote, he should say hOW he was induced to vote as he did upon the recent grant of the pnblic money. He certainly voted conscientiously andbonestly t He considered the attack made on his Hon. friend the Member for Aberdeen quite unfounded. The object of the Gallant Officer was to vindicate himself, and to declare that he had no motives that' were not purely disinterested. Mr. SPRING RICE said—lf-I hesitate in addressing a few words to the House, it is because th ere are. other Gentletien, perhaps not belonging to the class of my Honourable and Gallant - Friend, who .may also wish to make some observations, and who may take some Sob jealous to what fell from me ; though I hope I shall be able to show that a misconception has arisen from some misstatement or some misapprehension. But before I reply, it would be more regular that I should hear what are these objections, so that I may not reply first to one Gentlentan, and then on some other ground to another; and if so utterly unimportant and insignificant a person as I am can have any claims to the attention of the House, I hope the House will hear what I have to say. As it is likely some other Gentleman ' may have some observations to make, I shall reserve myself till after those observations are made. Mr. G. A. L. KECK said, be should avail himself of the opportunity to offer a few observations: What he, had principally to complain of was, that in his chatactei as a Member of Parliament, be had been subject to an imputation which he utterly disclaimed. During a long period in which he had been discharging his duties is that House be never suffered improper motives to inflnence his conduct ; and: if there had been ground. for the imputation cast upon 'him in consequence of the vote he gave on Tuesday last, .he should have,let. the imputation pass in silence. The' HoOourable Mem -her had never given a vote in ~that House which he - was afraid to- vindicate... No motive, or. respect for the memory of any man, -could 'induce him to sumo., der his duty. He declared at the same time, that he had entertained admiration fOr the splendid talents and character of Mr. Canning, ancrall his_amiable qualities. At an early period• of that Stateman's life, when his splendid eloquence was exhibited in that .Hosse t be had the strongest admiration of his great qualities,, but if bq, Was called on to estimate Mr. Cunning's character as a public man, he should fairly avow, that during the lat. .ter part of his life he was not able to bellow the* nsiration he did formerly. Notwithstanding thitanowst. he was surprised that any one slioald - impute ; lies which not only prevented himfrom doing ; 14S.Inty :in that*House, but which, if he really 40 futert4iti,aueh motives, ought to drive him froortheiricattyghonour able men.. The Honourable Memher,. stated that be had. never seen the ground, of his - comPhtlni, before Saturday. There was something 'insider, in the publication of the debates whichtookOne onVecc nesday, but that was a subject -be co:ski..4ist allude. He complained. 04111 it4usioa assdey-And • tbf tone in which it was ma de.—[Hew the lino.

The - Honourable • Menstrer agreed that . the council- warin-a condition to reward the seaeices ot any man, and be was not one of those who wouldact a base parcupon any scale of economy. ft che.Hon.. Member knew of any such person let bias Oka that person out. He was not the man.. He hadheentoldtbat it was not intended that the speech should be generally offensiv4 and it must become consolation to know that it was not intended tube a general condemnation. He laid claim to no great strength of- nerve; and during the thirty years be had 'sac iik that House, he had not shown any desire to distinguish himself by making complaints. He `was particularly induced in this instance to complain; becattse he felt that thetone of intimidation used in lbw House prevented Members from delivering their .senti menu.- The reason he gave the vote.alluded.to was this. He did not conceive there was made out, on the part of Mr. Canning, an irresistible claim to the grant. He did not oppose on the score of bane and dishonours-. hie feeling, but oh-what he believed to be the meriu-of the individual. On those grounds he opposed the ma tion. He never fllOtlld deny the grounds on whichhe: voted ; but his hope was, that a circumstance similar to this might never again occur s or tender it necessary to give explanation. Mr. SPRING RICE said be hived the House would extend its indulgence to hit a while he replied to the ob. servationS which had just been made. He hoped, how ever;. that no Honourable Member would allow any thing he might bate said to influente his judgment ow the interesting question on which titled Spoken. Ha wished to bear all the blame himself-for any objection- able remarks be might have made. -- Some 'questiedi might be raised as to the regularity of the mode of proceeding ; but it - Was not for him to do that, for be rejoiced at the opportunity of repelling the charge which had been made against him, and he rejoiced at the opportunity Of repeating what he had• before stated. He would take the liberty of saying, and he hoped in this statement be should be borne oat by; the House, that although he hid ben Ireqtiendy, engaged in discussion in that House, be bad always' endeavoured so to conduct it; as not intentionally to wound the feelings of individu ' *much less classes of persons—(Hear, hear, bear). As to the objections el his Honoerable and Gallant Friend behind, the House would net only recollect the observations he had made, but also the circumstances under which they were made: On the night when the Noble Lord got up to ma his objections to the vote, not on the ground that the finances of the country co uld not support it, but on the ground that Mr. Canning's services to the State did not merit such a mark of approbation, in reply to what fell from the Noble Lord, I took the liberty of dividing the opponents of the measure into two classes ; and the statement which I then made I am now ready to repeat. One party objected to the grant on account cli economy. Some, who did not think that the finances of the State were in such 'a condition ai to warrant the refusal, threw out Objections on a constitutional principle, as estikblishing an impro. per precedent, though they did not enter into charges against the policy and character of Mr. Can ning. These objections were distinct, and to those who made them no motives were attributed by me. Bit there was another class of objectors, who, like the Noble Lord (the Membe r for Suckieghamshire), posed the grant froth personil objections tit the Tr- racter of' Mr. Canning. There was not one word of what be,liadsaids. in expressing the, deep disappoint- Paat 49 had felt at findins,thy Besot io opposed, which 4e.was not.prepited to restate in' latiguie eqbally strong. If. object was, to separate he individuals. who' opposed the grant .on . uccotint of • Illotivt , of 4iconotay from those who opposed it oo account of per tonal hostility. If .his Honourable and Gallant Friend objected to the grant from motives of economy, or if he objected to it on constitutional principles, the terms he had used could not apply to him. The Hon. Member *opposite would notsurely.think that be threw out by his remarks a defiance of ,the agriculturists. .He belonged 'himself to that class, and could at no time mean to state ;such a defiance, and still less at that time, when an Hon. -Baronet, the great leader of the agricultural interest in Mit House, hid come forward so' nobly and said. that , though he objected to several parts of Mr. Canning's coo .doct, he felt it due to the honour of England, to declare •his entire concurrence in the vote—(bear)— his concur, fence.;-the vote on account of the services of Mr. Can; fling. it was not in the face of thii declaration-that he should choose to attack the agritulturists. He never meant any such thing ; and he was sorry for themistake which had beat made as to his intentions. If the House would refer to what had previously occurred, they would find some justification for his remarks. He was not in the House on a former night, when i speech bid been pronounced against Mr. Canning; and he rejoiced that he was not, as it enabled him to read it with more calmness and moderation than he could pos : sibly have heard it. He felt indignation even at reading it e Ir s that speech all the vices of Mr. Canning's , public life were arrayed against him—(Hear). And when he fouod the posthumous grant to that great man—(Hear) oppod on these grounds—when he found that his charater was to be dissected with that sort of minute anatomy Which is . employed on a dead subject—when he found that Mr. Canning's fame, which was the pro-, peril of that House and the country, was attacked after Mr. Canning's death . by those, who, if he had been alive, would not have made such an attack--I(Chters); it did make kis brood boil; and he had spoken and acted .on the impulse' of the- fieliog so excited. When be found that charges were brought against Mr. Canning, and obloquy heaped on. him, be felt that, as a Mem .ber of Parliament, theta was,occasion enough for in dignation, and that he ft was. bound within thOse walls to defend s hit memory —(Ciieeri).

He felt that the character of the great and lalhented Statesmen, whose character they • were ,discassiog,. was public property; and whilst he regretted that any thing which might have fallen from him should hive been' personally oftemive to any class, of persons in. that, House, he. could not retract nor' qualify any of the sentiments which be had uttered on I previous evenbsg--(Cheers). •'t •• , . • Mr. G. - DAMES regretted 'that . when the Hon: Member for LiMerick thought' it necessary to defend the character of the and; he should have thought it necessary to have-remarked on the speeches uttered on a former occasion by those who were now absent. In: this respect he must be allowed to say, that the observa tions of the Hen. Member for Litnerick were not qiiite so generous—(Hear). As to the Noble Lord alluded to by the Hon. Member (Lord Chandos), he was absent from this House on a public duty in his own county, and had authorised him (Mr. Bankes) to offer any explanation of the vote he had given , or as to th e o b servat i ons w i t h , which he prefaced it. The Honourable Member for Limerick complained that the Member for Dorset' (Mr. Bankes) had dragged into discussion the whole public life of . Mr. Canning ; but he called oa the, House to remember, that the vote which the House was called upon to agree to necessarily involved a review. of the public life of Mr.. Canning-,(Hear, hear). It was called for on public 'grounds. It was said re we do not ask this vote from you as on act of benevolence; we you as an • act of justice, for the public Cervices ask it from ofmr. Canning "-_(Hear, hear). It was there -fore incumbent on the H ouse to conl id er.t h e s e r vice s thus put forward as the•ground of the motion. He '(Mr. G. Bankes) voted against the _motion on public principles; but atthe sable time he felt the gteatest re verence for the talents of the late Mr. Canningoand never.felt so much pain at any dote be bad given during his life. As to th e Hotta Member for Limerick (Mr. Rice),. he had volunteered a defence, which he, (Mr. Bankers) felt bound to say, in his opinion, was, - -- , rookie. The Hon.

Secletary PEEL and Lord NUGENT rose to gether, but tote. call for the former being general, Lord Nugentgave,way, and Mr. Peel proceeded. He did not 'wish to narrow the freedowof debate in that House* for did he intellere before, as he felt that some Hon. Members would feel it satisfactory to their own minds to offer some explanation; but he now begged to recall ' the attention of the House to the subject under discus sion —(Hear)--and to express' his hope that those per sonal observations were at an end. The further conti nuance of such a discussion would only have the effect of engendering personal feelings of itritation, and could ,produce no public,advantage—(Hear, hear.)—He had himself taken an tipportunity of expressing Otis cordial concurrence to the vote proposed by his Right . Hon. Friend, and he would not enter on the subject again, but to repeat the expression of his earnest 'hope that the, House would confine itself to the real merits of the question before it. Lord NUGENT lamented that any personal feelings' "should be mingled with this question. It bad been his fate to have opposed Mr. Canning in politics for many years, on a vutiety of questions, and particularly on that. of Parliamentary Reform, but nevertheless be thought this small tribute was due ..to the memory of • that great and lamented Statesman; nor did he fear . • the menner in which this vote would operate's: ri prez• • cf . dent; for though he had ever been an advocate for' economy, he considered that making a provision foi the family of a deceased public servant, was a sti snubs to other public men to use their best endea , ... yours in the service of their country.—(Hear, bear), ; . ;;' Lord ASHLEY thought that this vote did not pledge the House to approve of any part of Mr. Canning': litical life. It was merely intended as a remuneration . . to his family for the injury done,to his and theicprivate • • fortune during a long course of public service—(Hear). He (Lord Ashley) opposed Mr. Canning during the lan yehts of his life, and would 'probably be in opposition to him were he now alive ; but '-he had never allowed: • private feelings to enter into his opposition—(Hear)., He opposed Mr. Canning as a politician, and not as a • father or a husband, and he would as soon refuse to . give Mr. Canning credit for his private virtues, as, he. would oppose this vote on account of any errors com mitted by, him in his political life—(Hear, hear). • Mx..Ws SMITH was opposed to Mr: Canning on • many occasions, and considered that his public condocg during the - last two years of his life was a sufficient, legitimate ground for opposition to bias, even in thdt. , ....- part of those who bad previon.ly supported his. mea sures; but it was degrading.to the character of Ibis: '• House to - Suffer personal feelings to interferewitfts or luttice'l Hear )- - .6and he agreed Noble . .C.Ord .
