Tbe Noble Lord observed that it would be premature at dim present time to enter upon a discussion of the subject. or even to stress an opinion open It i but this be Mould my that the mode suggested by the pedtioners appeared to bins the only one which meld possibly relieve the distress which prevailed in comegoesee of the evil. and which certainly was now greater than at any other period —The petition was laid on the table.

The Marquis of LA NS DOWN gore aides that temseenste he would pretest a Petition from the town sod oeighbeerhood of Manchester respecting the renewal of the gut India Company's Charter. acquire gain. He bad beard with horror of the dreadful crimes that had been perpetrated for the sake of procuring subjects for anatomical diuectioe.— Unless the awful fact convinced him of its truth he never should have believed that persons could be toond so horribly depraved as to put numbers of their fellows to death for the sake of a scanty gain. But yet it was so, and a frightful proof bad been given that human nature could arrive at so• low an ebb. How was it proposed that the Legislature should prevent the recur rence of such scenes bat to adopt a means for providing subjects ? Upon the same principle, therefore, he founded his measure. The market was not suffered to be in the hands of those persons, who, in consequence, acted illegally. Then, he would say, suffer them to do the thing legally. Besides, had they not tried to inquire into the probability of the good effects of such a system, from the evidence of the poulterers, who had lolly proved the truth of his hypothesis? He saw his Noble Friend opposite smiling at this. Perhaps he might think that the poulterer had his own interest in view. But they had the evidence of other persons, who told them that until they made it legal to sell game the system which bad been carried on so long, and in spite of all the efforts of the Legislitire. would continue to be per severed in. If the temptation continued, the only way to render the offence less frequent appeared to him to make the temptation less, and all be wished to do was to make the temptation to the poacher less. If he were shked to what he would attribute the increased disturbances of last year, he should have no hesitation in saying that they proceeded in a great degree from the steps which their Lordships themselves had taken. Many attributed the increase of crime io this respect to the stop that was put Ito the setting of spring guns. However that might affect it, his Bill did not interfere with that. He could, however, have no hesitation to say, that he would pre fer that system to have been persevered in rather than that such lawless violence as had frequently been prac tised should continue. The principle he always had in view was, first of all, to alter the laws respecting the sale of game, and to legalize that practice; and, after he had established that, to make some alteration with respect to the qualification of persons to shoot. With respect to the precise nature of the qualification, it did appear that Noble Lords were not aware of the law upon the subject. It seemed rather strange that, al though he might have a right to shoot upon his own land, he could not give leave either to his son or to his friend to do the same. He should like to ask the Royal Duke who sits'on the cross bench (the Duke of Cum berland), and from whom he anticipated his opposition, if be were aware that the first time be went to shoot, and be (Lord Wharncliffe) should give evidence against him, be would have to pay the penalty ? If that illus trious individual should go to amuse himself into one of his Royal Brother's manors, he would become liable to a heavy penalty, yet his son might do so with impunity; but if any thing happened to the Illustrious Duke, and his son should step into his shoes, he would be in the same manner liable • mid if that illustrious indi 'ideas /Loyal Brothe r bad a Scotch Peer, or any other, at his Palace, not haviig landed property in the coun try, and that person should amuse himself sporting, he would become liable to a penalty. This he looked upon' as a childish mode of legislation; and how he, having landed property, would be permitted to shoot when the same privilege was denied his son, or how the son of the illustrious individual to whom be had alluded might shoot, but not the illustrious person himself, he could not account for on any rational or good grounds. If, indeed, they were to go back to the time of their ances tors, the old Barons, they might justify such a measure; but such times were now past, and they made laws as they did houses, for their own comfort, and suited to the state of society. Then, he would say, allow the game ,to be sold, and extend the qualification to proper persons. He did not wish that every person should be allowed to sell game; he thought it proper that they should be under the necessity of paying a tax of three guineas and a half, and requiring a certificate to qualify them. He thought by what he had suggested that the Lord of the Manor, instead of being injured by such a measure, would be very much benefitted. The wet objection that would be made against the system be re commended was, that of small landowners being enti• tied to the same privilege as others. He should nor, however, have any great objection to an alteration in the' particular, and, if really there was a great ob jection to that part of the subject, he would not hesitate, but be ready, to extend the principle of the measure.— But the objection of which he was most afraid was, that this alteration of the game laws would tend to the destruction of foxes. Fox hooting he, however. begged their Lordships to recollect, was now carried on by a compromise. Every fox bunter was, in fact, a tres passer. And he would ask their Lordships it they did not believe that many game preservers were destroyers of foxes? He should be sorry to do any thing to the injury of fox hunting, but he did not think this Bail would have this effect. As the law now stood the smaller proprietors, who were not permitted to have any interest in the game. had an interest in destroying it; and in many instances be knew they did destroy it by poison. If fox-hunting required protection he would rather extend it by a penalty against killing I.zes in any other way than by bunting. than by preserving a code of laws in other respects so productive of mischief. He had now stated the arguments in support of his measure, and bad adverted to the chief objections against it. He left it in their Lordships hands, who must be conscious that the eyes of the country were opal them. The other House of Parliament had shown a disposition to concur with them in any practicable mea sure. He was determined to persevere; and a recent example had shown them that perseverance must eventually prevail when the sense of the country was in favour of the measure proposed. He implored them to reflect upon the situation in which they left the coun try if they rejected the measure. The Earl of MALMESBURY would imitate the perseverance of his Noble Friend, and resist this Bill. Other causes existed for the increase of crime indepen dent of the game laws. Let their Lordships look at the recent stirement of the Right Hon. Secretary of State for the Home Department, that annually one person in three hundred and eighty was committed t, prison in the metropolis for some crime. He had looked to the returns for Middlesex. and found that its the last year only four persons had been committed to poaching. The increase of crimes in Middlesex was tr.m fifteen to twenty-five. and with this poaching could have nothing to do. Neither did he ascribe incites* to the state of the law., but to the *am of cm- 044-;L44_ :4'4'Y/: Palo Salm/asp:qr. ployment, and to the facility of conveyance So great was the facility of conveyance. that he ventured to say a cock pheasant killed in his Noble Fiend's woods on the Saturday would be devoured by an Alderman in London on the Monday. The increase of persons and of game also notoriously led to the increase of poach ing. The cheapness of spirits and the ii.creased con sumption was another cause which applied to poaching as well as other crimes. He did not see that there was any thing more demoralizing in the pheasants and par tridges in the country than in the bandanna pocket handkerchief. a corner of which might peep soot of his Noble Friend's pocket as he walked down St. James's street. With respect to the sale of game he was not prepared to support the measure; yet he had a ratifi cation, io common with many other Noble Lords, in letting his friends know that he had not forgotten them. by making them a present of game greater than becould derive from selling his game at half-a-crown or Ss. a bead. This was, however. a matter of taste and feel ing. and as a temporary experiment be should not have objected to ibis part of the Bill; bit his Noble Friend bad combined it with a change in the law of qualifies. lion to which he could not agree In his Noble Friend's Bill there were the materials of two Bills, which bad much better have been kept separate. He had obtained a return from-the clerk of -the -peace of she county of Southampton, from which it appeared that the number of commitments for theism three years in that county had increased scarcely at all for the crime of poaching. hue very considerably for the crimes of deer stealing" Ash poaching, and poultry stealing; all of which arts elm, as their Lordships knew, were saleable. His ob 'action to the alteration of the qualification was, that st tended to destroy the amusement of the country Gen thrown. His Noble Frieod's Bill did not stand upon any principle, for if it passed, the owner of property under 11P acres would then have reason to complain. The system proposed would create a new class of game pre servers, consisting of men who preserved it merely as a trading speculation. It would put a stop to sporting upon sufferance as a matter of favour ;it would ren der game preserving a matter of business; and with draw the farmers. particularly apes Church pro perty and property belonging to females. how their proper avocations, for the sake of preserving game, apprehending poachers. and warning trespassers, with the view of letting th e privilege of shooting to the highest bidder. He was foe these reasons disposed to leave to the country Gentlemen the bonus of the game laws as en inducement to reside upon the estates of their ancestors. From the period of the fall of man the desire of bunting theferat nature had been strongly implanted in the human race. It was a wholesome and healthy amusement. Country Gentlemen must have some amusement of this kind. They could not be ex pected to be seen roaming about their fields and poring over Aristotle. He hoped their Lordships would deli. berate seriously upon the nsbject before they gave their mmetioa to any new pnaciple. The Bad of CABNARVON supported the Bill, on the grated that the present state of the law presented to Juries a temptation which they could trot resist to permit the escap e of It gave r i se to perjury. • visitor from London could not under this Bill par. chase the right of shooting, and set the landed interest of the country at defiance. He most be a crial.fied man before he could have the right to shot t at all._ Would their Lordships refuse to go into the Committee upon a Bill for the purpose of amending the law which OM tempted Juries and Magistrates to habitual viola. does of their duty. and upon a Bill which had already received the unanimous concurrence of the House of Commas? If they bad a due regard to the morals of the country. it was impossible that they could do an. By giving .a free and legal market for game they would lessen the temptation to crime. and they would give to all parties connected with the land an interest in the preservation of game. He was prepared to concur in every word of the Bill as it now stood; but he was not averse to agree to any amendments that might be pro. posed wh , ch did not violate the principle and de:tioy the efficiency of the measure. He, therefore, trusted their Lordships would co nsen t to go i nto a Committee.

L ‘rd WHARNCLIFFE said he should now take the liberty of troubling their Lordships upon a subject to which he had so often drawn their attention ; and be confessed that circumstances had occurred during the last Session which made him think that it would be even more necessary for the House to take the measure under their serious consideration, as one which connected itself with the interests of the country at large. Since Ithe year 1816 that question was never allowed to be at rest ; year atter year it was brought before the con. sideration of Government, and continually agitated in the other House of Parliament ; and at last a Bill was brought before the House of Commons which, after a plenty of time allowed for its consideration, and the principle, which before was well known, had been dis cussed, was sent up to their Lordships without one din. seating voice. In point of fact, the Bill which was sent up to the House the Session before the present, if it met with any opposition at all, was, at least, but very little opposed ; and this he considered one reason to account for the present Bill having met with Done. It would be reinemberei 'that last Session their Lordships passed a Bill for making an alteration in the existing laws re specting Game. In the progress of the present Bill through the House of Commons he (Lord aracliffe) had urged the persons who brought it forward there not to hurry it through, and not to send it up to their Lordships House while they were engaged in a mat sun of so much greater importance, which occupied their Lordships' attention almost exclusively up to a late period. Still he felt that there were considerable difficuloes in getting them even now to pay attention to it. Whenever the subject was talked of, it appeared to be considered one not fit for the interference of his Majesty's Ministers, not deserving of their attention. It was looked upon as a subject only worthy the interference of private Gentlemen, and only affecting them. But hi thought he might venture to say that there was no subject which entered so constantly into the daily com fort of the people of this country than did this. He would for a moment look back to the present state of the country, and endeavour to trace bow far and in what way it was affected by the existing laws. He bad said that year after year attempts had been made to bring about the measure which it was the object of this Bill to effect. Their Lo r d s hip s h a d constantly received Bills from the House of Commons, but they had re jected these Bills. And what did they substitute in their place? Why, they enacted laws, which were sys tematically broken, and, in spite of all their efforts, offences were committed, and crimes repeated, which not only in themselves were illegal and injurious, but gave rise to much more evil, by leading to nightly at tacks and depredations. la order to ascertain the state of the country upon this point, and to show to their Lordships how its Interests were involved in it, he had, a short time since, moved for certain documents; and, after he had read those documents. he should feel him. self justified in calling upon their Lordships to enact a measure which would have the effect of changing the state of the country. A few weeks ago lie moved for a return of the persons committed for trial, and convicted at the last Spring Assizes, in the several counties of England and Wales, under the Night Poaching Act, and he found. by the return. that the number of per sons convicted under that Act, during the Lent Assizes alone. were 214, twenty-nine of whom, being indicted for shooting at or wounding gamekeepers, received sentence of death, one was sentenced to transpoita doe for life, fourteen for a period of fourteen years. and twenty for minor periods. Now, that was a state of things which ought not to be continued. It would be idle to tell him to shut his eyes and stand still. He knew . an argument would be egged against it. It would be said, all is very woe; many persons have been convicted, and for that reason let us wait until we see how that Act will operate; but be would say, look to the state of the country before that Act was passed, and what change had been effected. fhe obj• ct of that Act was, to alter the former Act, that, whether a person went out himself, or sent others sot, he became subject to transportation; but the real tact was, that the country had before that come to a determination to set every law at defiance. Those of. fences must increase in spite of the law. If the gentry of the country would have game, it was out of the power of human nature to prevent them. He might. perhaps, be asked. how, then, would he prevent poach ing ?. He would ask their Lordships how, in other branches of the Legislature, in cases similar to that, had they acted ? How did they set about preventing smug ,ding but by removing the heavy duties? Was it not the very way. he asked them, tn act in this instance? Let the market be Is ft open to the poacher, endeavour , o meet the poacher in the market, and then they would one to even terms with trim.
