The Pillory Ahoanion Bill, the Freehold testes Liebility, the Crown Lands Sale, and a few other Bills, with a great cumber of private ones were brought up from the Commons by Mr. BROOD Mr. M. A. Taxsoit, Mr. HARVEY, and severally read a first time. Earl CHOLMONDELEY reported the Prince Regent's An swer to the late Address of their Lordships (touching the eom ruunicatioil of c. min official documents), signifying that direc tions shorthi be given accor.liogly. I .er , i ELLENBOROUGH presented Petitions from the Pa rishes of St Mary-la Boone, ht.

The Additional Copper Duties Bill paisvel through a Commit tee of the whole House, and was reported without any amens:- Meta. The other Bills upon the table were forwarded in their several stages. Certain documents were presented at the bar from the Ad miralty, pur.uant to a vote of their Lordships, and ordered to lie on the table. "Che order t.r resuming the adjourned debate on the question for the s..entui read.og of the Hell on Election Bill being read, The LORD CHANCELLOR rose, and in a short but corn preliencive sp. eels recapitulated and enforced his objections ae titer the measure in its present shape. He observed among nth.: 1 aises that the Bill hare ito restaiblatice whatever to the Situ . Lam, I..:ricklatle, or Aylesbury Election Bulb, which it af ft cte.! to imitete; the principle and provisions of those Bills were very different—thy lett every individual • to the effect of tie laws in his particular case, and did not punish the innocent fox it guilty. The measure before their Lordships went to al lege t t same persons in the borough of Helstuo were guilty of bribery and comrptiou Therefore—What ? The whole body of the Electors in the borough (though en new freemen were added since the last election) were to be deprived of their elec tive franchise. 'I her Lordships must feel that they could never accede to such a principle. ha Noble and Learned Lord con cluded by moving, that the Bill be read a second time this day six mottles. Lord GRENVILLE. observed, that the course suggested by the Noble and Learned Lot d, was the only course which could with propriety be taken. He then made a variety of obseiva tions I et pectirg tie: measure, taking it in different points of view, aid seemed to thiak that its enactments may consistently be made the subject of tyro separate Bills; and, though he supported the present t.otion, he old not mean to pledge Isimseit if a MI wer. broth ht on the subject, free from the ovjectiOna to the wave, oseesstre, tit:: he should oppose it. Lord 1)E DUNS I ANVILLE coincided In do propriety of the Noble sod Learned Lord's motion; but suggested that It would be ',toper to have the expences tierayed of these wit nesses, who bad come Op on account of the Bill, for so great a dta'ance. *1 he LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that what the Noble Lord suggested, may be the subjeet of distinct or separate con sideration. '1 lie question was then. put, and the Bill ordered to be read a Memel time %kat day six months.—Adjourned tiU Monday. o. I ell • • • ••• • • 1 fr I HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. Hllt.F.Y ADDING !'ON presented the copy of a circular letter (ruin Viscount Sidmouth, for discharging officers and sol di, t. bel..ngii g to the Mil:tia. 'lke home went into a Committee of Ways and Means on the Duties on horses and Carriages in Ireland. The Resolu tions were agr..ed to, awl the Report ordered to be received on hionday nevi. 'Ate Gre. nwich I ic,s;‘ital Bill was read a third time and passed. The Irish !.,alt Duty and Irish A Aessed Taxi s Hills were read *second tiir and oid.red to be iommited en Monday. the CH. ...:CELLOIt of the EXCHEQUEIt moved that the 1-io %e it it* rising should a Ijourn till Monday next.—Agreed to. ne Committee of supply was poopoued to Monday, on ao• count of the lateness of the hour. . to: P....port of the Exchequer BiUs Funding Bill was brought up ahuagr,ed to, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time on 11,10na). CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER obtained leave to bang in a JOU for further regulating the Registry of India built ships. 'the Bill intended to be brought in he stated to be nearly bituilar to ch.. , 011.i,t )ear. 'll.e.

The Glamorganshirt Election Bill was read a third time and patted. PROPERTY TAX. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER baying moved that the Property Tar Revival Bill be read a third time, Mr. DiCKI/sION stated, that in consequence of many applications made to him, which Chewed that a far greater proportion of farmers were confined in jail for debt, in consequence of the mode of assess ment under the Pi operiy Tax than previous to its en actment, he should think it proper to introduce an amendment into the Bill, by which farmers would be placed on the same footing as merchants. Mr. Alderman SIMITII was understood to express his intention of opposill such an amendment. Mr. HORNER considered such an amendment of the greatest impartai:ce. Agriculture was the basis Of all financial operations, and the fountain head of the prosperity of the country. He objected to take the rent as the criterion on which the assessment w.ts founded. He wished farmers to have the same relief under the tax as other persons deriving profits from their employments, and that, should they prove that they had mae no profits, they should be relieved on that she wing. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought that it was not the time to complain that sufficient attention had not been paid to the landed interest during the course of this session. He sindi ;wed the mode of assessment as the only one that it was possible to carry into effect. An average rent was.established as a criterion; but if the tenant felt aggrieved, he would apply to his landlord for a Teductio4 of rent, which would at the same time pro, duce a proportionate relief from the operation of the Tax. Mr, FRAXTICLAND LZWIS wal mimed that from the Ant enaetmertt of the Property Tax, the profits of farmers never justified the heavy charges made upon them. He thought their situation called imperiously for such an *alteration as the intended amendment proposed. • Mr. CALCRAFT supported the Tax as he had ' done in 1806, because he knew of no other that would equally answer the emergencies of the State. To give relief to one class of individuals would be to et cite a great deal of dissatisfaction in others. Mr. DAVIES GIDDY supported the Tax, merely as a temporary measure, limited to one year. After a few words from the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, Mr. GOENFELL, and' Mr. D. GIDDY, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied to a question of the latter Gentleman, that both landlord and tenant were entitled to an abate. meet of their assessment, in consequence of every I bone dc,!: reduction of rent for one year only. S.r bl. W. RIDLEY considered the Property Tax as a war measure : he objected to the war as untie. cessary, and was unwilling to arm Ministers with tt,e means (4 carrying it on. Even if it were intended as a peace measure, or during an armed truce, he thought other taxes might be devised that would press less heavily upon the people, especially whew be re collected that a peace establishment of 19 million; was proposed without having recourse to tint Tax. He complained, that under the pretence of avoiding future wars, the country should be hurried into a new contest. Better would it be. " To bear the ills we have, " Than fly to others that we know not of." He concluded by moving, as en amendment, that the third reading of the liill should take place this day six months. Mr. LOCKHART was understood to wish that the Tax should be modified. Sir JOHN NEWPORT opposed it, both as a war tax, and as imposing greater burdens than any other impost. Mr. STURGES BOURNE asked the Honourable Baronet whether he disapproved of the mode of rai sing supplies within the year, and wished to recur to the funding system, which gave much greater faci lities for carrying on the war, as it threw its burthens on posterity. The Honourable Baronet had not only already voted fer it, when he agreed to the ad dress to the Prince Regent, but at a previous period, when he held a high official situation himself, and supported the increase of that Tax. Sir JOHN NEWPORT stated, that when he had voted for the Address, he lwd done it under a decep tion practised upon him. Mr. PLUNKETT could not oppose the third reading of the Bill. He had concurred in the Ad dress to the Prince Regent, and how was the pledge then given to be redeemed if this Bill were not passed ? Di 3 the Hon. B tronet think that the Administration of the country should be disarmed in the present cit coin:stances ? Whether we entered upon an offensive or defensive war, or remit:el in a state of peace, he. thought the measure necessary. He did not consider that any thlusion had been practised upon him when he voted in fivcor of the Address. Sir WILLIAM SMITH said that a tax of :wally the same uat•lr7 63d lowers Ind been enacted in the time of Queen Anne, but could not be carried intoetfect. The greatest recommendation of the p:esent was, that it was to last only (or one year. Alta a few words from Mr. Rose, Mr. William Smith, Mr. J. P. Grant, and Mr. William Wynne, the House divided, when there appeared, ror the third reading of the Bill 160—Against it 29—Majority 131. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. FOREIGN SLAVE TRAMS The Howe went into a Committee on the Foreign Slave Trade Biil. Mr. BARING objected to the chose of penalty, as not allowing those in places at a distance Hine to hear of the enactment of the Bill before the penalty might be incurred. Mr. BARIIAM would wish that the present stage of the Bill should not be disturbed, and in future stages every objection could be discussed. Mr. BARING thought the present the fittest op- portunity. After some further conversationbetween Mr. Forbes, Sir John Newport, Mr. B iring, Mr. Barham, Mr. Finlay, Mr. Douglas, Mr. ‘V idiom Smith, inul Lord Milton, an amendment, allowing three months to persons in Africa and the West Indies, and sit months to persons beyond the Cape of Good Hope, and Cape Horn, and in all other parts of the world, was agreed to. • Mr. BARING objected to the clause making it penal for a British subject to lend money on security to persons in the colonies cf any countries that bad not abolished the Slave Trade. There was much other trade beside the Slave Trade ca: iied on in the colonies of foreign countries, and he thought it hard that the English capitalist could not lend 114 money for such 'lade.- He was a most firm friend to the Abolition of the Slave Trade, but this clause was not an abolition of that trade, but an abolition of almost all intercourse with the Colonies of those countries that have not abolialied the Slave Trade. If his Ho nourable Friend would modiffthe clause to those wAo should lend money to carry on the Slave Trade, he should gladly support it. Mr. W. WYNNE said, that it became this corm= try to do every thing in her power to shew the since. rity of her intention totally to abolish the vile traffic in Slaves. Mr. BA RHAM said, hii Honourable Friend com plained it would cut off much beneficial trade from' this country. But if he could shew that without this clause, the Bill would be wholly nugatory, and that even on the score of policy the clause would be use ful, he was sure his Honourable Friend would with draw his objection. The object of the Bill was to prevent British capital from assisting in any manner to this abominable trade. But if British capital brought a greater interest to the lender by being em ployed in the Slave Trade by the colonies of other countries, than it would in any other way, it would be lent for that purpose, if not restrained by being made criminal. Now in our own colonies capital would bring but 10 per cent. but in the colonies of countries that bad not abolished the Slave Trade, it would bring 40 per cent. in . that trade. The bor rower could then aord 20 pet cent. to the lender, and of course English capital would flow in that, till prohibited by . being made criminal. As for its . being made trim gal to lend money for the Slave . Tsse eely s it woultl be idle ? es ikg person Petit oty it was for the Slave Trade. The borrower would mortgagelis property, and would say nothing as to what' business be borrowed the money for, though he would of course embark it in the business which woulJ bring him the gleatest profit. British capital had always a tendency to flow into that channel, — The gratest part of the Spanish Slave Trade was carried on by British capital ; and so was a great part of the Danish. There were, eleven millions sunk in Demerara in this trade. Then in a political point of view it was injurious to be lending our capital to foreign countries. In peace it was withdrawing means from our industry ; in war it furnished the power of many useful enterprises. If the clause was parted with, it would be exhibiting ourselves to the world as insincere in our desire to abolish the Trade. If it was retained, all the trade of Cuba and i'ortn Rico would be carried on by British capital before eight years. Sojeant ONSLOW said, that the Bill would be but a solemn mockery without the clause. Ile would rather abandon all our trade, it it were necessary, ttiah omit - the clause. Mr. MARRYATT said that the claim! would be a great restriction on fair and inancent traders. It woulit in fact be prohibiting all trade with the coin- nies of all commies that had not abolished the Slave Trade. Oar exports to the Colonies were 17 millions per annum. Those to our West India Colonies are only seven millions. Were we then prepared to give up the remaining ten millions ? Was not a trade of that amount necessary to support our naval superio rity ? Ile supported the amendment. Sir J. MACKINTOSH said, that when we were inviting all other countries to abolish this infamoos , trade, we ought to take care to leave no room for a suspicion of our insincerity. He did not know a' to what should be the exact degree of punishment; but assisting in any way towards the trade, should be made a substantive crime. Mr. MARRYATT explained. Mr. DOUGLAS was of opinion that the means *proposed by the Hon. Gentleman were not necessary fer the complete abolition of the Slave Trade. Mr. BARING replied, and contended that the clause would not prevent the purchase of a single slave. Tile trade would be carried on by others, as lonq as all other countries were not pin out of the pale of general traffic. As the clause 110 W stood, no r in could lend any money even rn a bale, of sugar ; and thus even the fair commerce of the country would be interdicted, as it would prevent our nit.r chants from lending money on security under any circumstances. • Sir S. ROMILLY was of opinion that it would he better to omit the clause altogether, than to suffer it Po be thus amended, as ere planter had no object in mortgaging his estates, but for the purpose of pro- Slaves. Yet there were considerable objet. tui3 to making this offence a felony. It ought to be randdered as a high crime and misdemeanour, and riniiidled accordingly. The punishment might be that isf fine and imprisonment, but not that of transportation, and the common informer might be encouraged to bring qui law actions, which would produce all the effect that could be desired. Mr. W. SMITiI wrs in favour of the original elan .e, as the greatest part of the goods sent out item this country were disposed of witha view to an immediate fano. Mr. Nj AR R ATT repeated his opinion, that the claii.c would abolish all ntercantile trade. Mr. FOR BES was of a similar opinion. Sir .1. NE WPOICV was against the amendment, but thought, that as we had made great sacrifices to abolish the Trade, floating property ought to Ic protected. Mr. BARHAM then consented to make his clause extend only to those who lend money on " lands, buildings, slaves, and growing crops." • Mr. FINLAY thought the clause altogether un important for its object; he would therefore vote tor the amendment. Mr. WILBERFORCE was sure that some such security as this niost be adapted to prevent the traffic. Atter a conversation between Mr. Wit nenronea, Mr. FORBES, Sir SASllirl. Itterita.v, and Mr. BARING / the I louse divided—Fur the Amendment 7—Against it .52—Nfajoiity 45. Mr. BA RHANI then proposed his amendment - al the original Clause, to winch— Mr. BARING objected, and propo , .c.l to amend the Amendment, by leaving out t• glowing crops and buildings." Sir .1. MACKINTOSH was convinced that the whole object of the Clause would be defeated if this last Amendment were adopted. Mr. MARRYATT supported it. If the measure were carried without it, it would by none be so soon and so seriously lamented as by Ministers. Mr. BARHANI contended, that by his Amend ment he had met all the objections to the clause that had been previously stated. Mr. BARING then proposed to omit the word " buildings," and leave that of " growing crops," which would be a great convenience to the commer cial interests, and not at all interfere ssith the object of the clause. After a few words from Mr. Serjeant ONSLOW and Mr. FINLAY, the House divided on Mr. Bannta's Amendment— For it 11—Against it 49—Majority 38. Sir J. MACKINTOSH moved an amendment to the clause, providing that persons offending against the Act should he treated as felons, which went to enact that they should be punished by fine and im prisonment ; the fine in all cases to be three times the amount cf the sum lent ; a moiety of it to go to the King, and the other moiety to the informer, pro. vided the information should be given within three years after the commission of the offence. On this clause a discussion took place, in which Mr. BARING, Mr. Bartivitsr, and Mr. Serjeant ON. now, participated it was finally agreed to. On the clause respecting the mode in which offen. dens under the Act were to be tried, being read— Mr. BARING opposed it, as tending to endanger the liberty of the subject, and as being at variance with the principles of BT iti sh jurisprudence. The Committee divided—For the Clause 33 Against. it 14—Majority W. The House resumed, and the Report of the Bill Was ordered to be received on Tuesday. The other Orders of the Day were disposed of, and the How adjourned. INTERCEPTED LETTERS. READ BY LORDCASTLEREAGII IN THE MUSE CIAINI1N: (CONTINUED PROM OUR CAPER or vtartunat). YEW!
