One person had been brought forward for a similar purpose, at a time when he was confined.in Horsemonger-lane jail, on a charge of murder. Mr. Henty had been accused of a breach in the Excise Laws, without either the time or the place at which the alleged offence was committed being specified. Thirteen poor wretches, who had no means of de fending themselves, had been so intimidated that they had falsely pleaded guilty. It had since been proved that they were smuggling on the evening of the 4th April, when they were not charged with it, but they had aot.been .so implOydd 'the. Ai:it-Mit of that day, when they were charged with it. He hoped the whole Exchequer system would shortly come under the consideration of. that House. • The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER only opposed the Petition on account of the facts being so vaguely stated. If what had been asserted by the 'Honourable Gentleman were distinctly embodied in it, there would be no objections to receive it. Mr. LUSHINGTON said in the case of Mr. Henty, .as in another case, on account of the infamous cha racter of the witnesses, the fines and all the costs had been ordered to be repaid. It would therefore be seen that all the reparation had been made that could its made. Ho wished to know if the Noble Lord who had brought forward this Petition had any pro position to submit to the House fox the amendment of the. law. It was his wish and that of the Govern ment- thait the law should be framed so as not to touch thtinnocent, while it reached the guilty. As reparation had been made in the cases which bad been mentioned, he could not see that any good was likely to result from laying this Petition on the table. Mr: HARVEY suggested that the best course might be to withdraw the Petition, and move for pa pers to give the House further information. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER had ne objection to the production of such papers. Lord H. HOWARD was confident the Petitioners would not have put their names to that which they did not believe to be true. lie consented to with draw the Petition.—After a few further remarks from Mr.Lusuiticvon,Mr. Cuawew, and Mr. WaLtaci, the'Petition was withdrawn.

It appeared to him, that if this arose from no negligence of his own, some indulgence might be shewn to the Peti tioner, and that the time for entering into recrAg nitances ought to be enlarged. He (Lord Milton) knew nothing of the Petitioner, or of the merits of the case, but from the Petition. The Petition was then read. It complained of a I time having been fixed by the Examiners far enter ing into his recognizances, when by law this could not be doile. k also complained, among ether things, of attempts having been made to tamper with the sureties, in order to induce them to abandon him. The SPEAKER said, that he had already com municated to the House the substance of the Uttar alluded to in the Petition. He thought it right to call for a communication from the Examiners, and was informed, that the day for entering into the re cognizances was fixed upon by the Petitioner him. self, and sanctioned by the Examiners. When %he day arrived, Mr. Ley, one of the Examiners, saw it was too late for the recognizances to be received, and stated so to the Petitioner; at she same time ob . serving, that they would still examine into the suffi ciency of the sureties, and make their Report to the House, in order to enable the Petitioner then to make an application to Parliament for such a remedy as r the nattivrof the circumstances called for. The Pe titioner, however, declined this course, remarking, that he thought the day was within the limited time, and said he would apply to Parliament. He then quitted the room, and wrote to him (theApeaker) the Utter. He would now suggest to the House, that it appeared to him the right course was to referthe whole matter -tea Select Committee.-- LOrd MILTON then moved, that it leletr eayn mittee be appaated to consider to much UrthePeti , tion as referred to the tswesaminatiqo orthe sureties.

Mr. PEEL laid on the table the Resolutions which be said were intended to be mpved on the'ntilit of trsteussion of the ReptiiVThe ResolutiOas contain no mare than. an adoption of she prineiple.aheady recommended by the Report. He said, that in pre senting _those, he not only complied with the unto; Mary duty of a Chairman, but he also recommended them as an individual, convinced that they contained the best and moss-practicable plan of relief from those embarrassments which the Mercantile World was labouring under from the Suspension of Cash Payments. CONVEYANCERS ACT AMENDMENT FILL. Mr. LYTTLETON moved the Order of the Day for a Committee on the Stamp Duties Act, as far as related to Certificates authorising persons to act as Conveyancers. He remarked, that great abuses pre vailed, from improper and unqualified persons ob taining such Certificates, and said it was his intention to move in the Committee for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the Law in this respect.—The House then resolved itself into a Committee on the Act. Mr.LYTTLETON said, that in the Bill which he meant to propose, the following exceptions were in tended to be made from those who required a certifi-1 cate to practice as Conveyancers. These were :--lst. That it should not extend to Stewards of Noblemen or others, to prevent them from drawing leases-2d. That it should not prevent any person from drawing a will—Sd. That it should not extend to persons drawing conveyances, &c. gratuitously. Convey ancing was One of the most important branches of the Ilaw, yet at present Auomies were exposed to a much greater expense, and greater difficulties, before they could practice, than Conveyance:s. The same qua lification might to be required, as to length of study and otherwise, to entitle persons to certificates as Conveyancers as for Attornies. lie concluded by roving, that the Chairman be instructed to move the Housofor leave to bring in a Bill to amend the said Act, so fix as - related.,to persons acting as Convey ancers.--. The motion was agreed to ; after which the House restuned,and leave was given to bring in the Bill. BANZIWPT LAWS AMINDMENT BILL. Sir JOH/4 STUART moved, that the House do resolve itself into the Committee on this• Bill. MI the Committee, the several clauses of the Bill were discussed at some length, and a good deal- of conversation arose between Mr. J. Sums, the Sou- CITOR•ORIIISIAL, Mr. Alderman %%ALTIIMAW, the ATTORNEY-GENERAL, Mr. Courranws, Mr. R. GRAN?, Mr. SHARPY, Mr. BENNETT, Sir JOHN Nsw- POET, and Mr. FINLAY. The clauses principally adverted to were those relating to the power pen. posed to give an insolvent man to declare himself a bankrupt ; to the time, after the stoppage of payment, when a commission of bankruptcy could issue, the power to make compositions and vest the bankrupt's property in trustees, &c. &c. Sir C. BURRELL suggested, that it would be right to postpone the further discussion of the present Bill, in order to give time to the consideration of the Penryn Bill Mr. J. SMYTH had no objection. Mr. MARTIN hoped the House would psiceed with the present discussion ; for his Ott, he would stay up till four o'clock in the morning to do business. On motion of Sir C. BURRELL, the House resumed. Mr. BROGDEN reported progress. The Com mittee to sit again on Friday next. PENEYN ELECTION. Zhe House then resolved itself into a Committer on the Pearyn Bribery Bill. Mr. key was called. and examined by the abomittee. He produced three or four land-bilis ; one called the " Weliwisher" t a assolid, the " Friend to the Wellerisher ;" and a third, signed " A Tax-gatberer." These hand-bis he had been employed to loprint by Mr. Sewell. The witness was ordered to withdraw. Mr. HOLFORD, alluding to an account - Which had been given in all the Daily Papers of a speech made by Mr. Anderdon, and which was stated to have been written by that Gentleman, begged to cor rmot.the error which had gone terthtoshe Public, and to state that Mr. Anderdon was not the author of that ridiculous paraggh. Mr. MORRIS FI GERALD rtgretted that this paper had been inserted in the Public Journals—a paper which was expunged from the Journals of the 'House on account of its absurdity, but which was given as an authentic statement of what had passed before the Committee. Mr. Anderdon was as inca pable of the absurdity and impropriety imputed to him as any Honourable Member of the House. He did not know how far it might be proper to interfere in this-matter ; but he could not help regretting that such a bad use had been made of the indulgencies granted by this House. The CHAIRMAN observed, that if the Honour .ab )1e Member intended to make any motion on the . - subject, thi; was not the proper - opportunity. Mr. Budd was then callini in, azM stated that the paragraph in question was sent to bun from Pester; at the time when Mr. Anderdon was on his way from that borough to Loudon. 1k -was not acquainted with the handwriting of Mr. Anderdon, nor did he know by whore that paisvapi was written.
