done in the court hf Chancery against in individual, of which he had not fair and due notice, and it was solely because he refissed to obey the orders of the Court, that he wai subjected to imprisonment.— As to the payment of Costs, ought hot persons, guilty of injustice, and who were Condeinned, to pay the costs, be imprisoned until they made restitution; by the payment of them ? He had, by the favour of one of his Hon. Friends, been enabled, since he rose, to obtain the Act for the relief of the insolvent debtots, passed in 1812, and he had then before Lim the clause in which insol vents confined for costs, due on proceedings in any of the Courts, were entitled to their discharge in the same - manner as other insolvents. The House had, in the arguments on that head of the Hon. Member for Aber deen, an example of the accuracy of his statement, and onyht to know how to place confidence in them. Not withstanding the great efforts of the Hon. Member, he thought that all the proceedings in the Court of Chancery were established alma general principles, the soundness of which no man could deny, and he would defy the utmost inge nuity of any individual, hoWtver acute he' might be, to effect in them a partial improvement. Mr. LOCKHART said, he did not expect that any one would deny the justice of imprisonment where the p irties refused to answer when the rights and interests cf others required that they should do so.. He disap p:oved of that provision in the Ir.solvent Act, by which persons confined fur contempt were enabled to escape, when they had spent the money which belonged, perhaps, to infants, orphans, or fewer: covert. He objected to the general propositions of the lion. Member for Aberdeen, in respect to the Courts of Equity. Mr. HUM E complained in very warm terms of being " assailed by ignorance," when the Honourable and 1.-arned Gentleman himself had shewn himself ignorant f the law until the Act was placed in his hands by the Right Hon. the President of the Board of Trade. He was not bound to know the law, but the Right Hon. Gentlemen were. The Attorney-General ought to have the law at his fingers' ends, and not be-obliged to look fa- it in books and Acts of Parli•iment. lie contended that no one could understand the proeeedings of the Court of Chancery. He once read fifty or sixty folios of such proceedings, and asked somebody what it all meant ? " 0:1. ° was the answer," turn to the last folio, and there you'll find the meaning of it all in three lines" —(A laugh). When a poor person, for example, was ' called upon to come andanswer John Doe—(a langh)— how could he be blamed if he should happen to disre gard the summons? He Legged pardon for having trespassed so long, but having been accused by the Honourable and Learned Gentleman of ignorance, be was anxious in return to ex pose the mystification of the profession to which the Honourable and Learned Gentleman belonged. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said, "I will tell the Hon. Gentleman the difference between his case and, mine. He asserted that the fact was so, and I , not being in the habit of contradicting Gentlemen when they make confident assertions, without having materials upon which I can shew them to be mistaken—l said that I could not speak as to the particular words of a compli cated Act. but when that Act was put into my hands, 1 was warranted in showing that the assertion of the lion. Gentleman was wrong, and I then appealed to the Howie, and cautioned them against believing his other statements, until they had the means of judging whether they were of the same c►aracter or not." Mr. HUME explained, and the motion was agreed to. sir. HUMP. moved for Returns of the number of Stamps pur chased by each Newspaper in Ireland, for each year, the last five years, and for returns of the number of Proclamations of Govern latent sent to each Paper during that period.- Ordered. Mr. FIUME then moved fur returns of the number of Prosecu tions under the Court of Exchequer, for the last bye years, statio; the names and residence of the prosecuted, and the expence and result of each prosecution. The CH A NC EL LOR of the EXCHEQUER did not o►ject to to the returns, but doubted if ever the Hon. Member could get them. If he did he wished him joy of them. Nir. HUME moved for similar returns from the Boards of Cus toms, Stamps and Taxes.—The motion was agreed to. Similar returns were, on the motion of Mr. Huse, ordered fur Scotland. IPLIAMISSOItY NOTES BILL. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the third-resding of the Promissory Notes' Bill. Lord A. HAMILTON sidd, that be should support the measure not that it met altogether with his approval, or that be did not see evil from a recurrence to cash payments, but because. he thought it the least of two evils. He was sorry, however, that Government did not seem inclined to accompany the 'measure with the more effectual one of economy and retrenchment, 'by means of which they could alone hope to rescue the country from its present distress. Mr. CA LCR AFT declared it was his intention to take the sense et the House. lie considered this to be a Bill of 'Pains and Penalties, directed against a certain class of the community, the hankers, In 1884 this class of men had been recogniied as highly beneficial to the country, and were permitted to issue their notes. nil 1833 ; but in the year 1826 those very men were accused of being the authors of the public calamities; yet Government, by speculative issues of their paper, had done more harm. It was the depreciation of Government paper alone which prevented Ministers from following the example of 1793, and issuing commercial Ex chequer Bills. Sir R. HERON vindicated the bankers from the aspersions which had been cast upon them. He believed that a severe re trenchment of the public expenditure would have been a more eßec-sal means of relieving the general distress than the pt opooed measure. Mr. J. MARTIN said, that he could not agree in the principle of the Bill. Mr. ROBERTSON was of opinion, that the measure could not fail to prove injurious•to the agricultural, commercial, and manu facturing interests of the country. Mr. C. WILSON repressed a hope that measures would be •Aen to render the forgery of Bank notes More difficult than it .vas at present. • Sir•ti. BLAKE observed, that Incise principle of the Bill had been turned topsy-turvy for the sake of the Bank of England, be thought the Country Bankers ought to hive a similar indulgence. lie understood that the Chancellor Of The Exchequer meant to extend the Bill to Scotland; but did the Right Hon. Gentleman think that'the Scotch Bankers would comply with it? He (Sir F. filake)'thought they would not. (A laugh.) To beure, t►ey must if an Art of Parliament required them. The cry of " question" now became loud, and strangfrs were ordefed to withdraw. In their absence a division took place, at which the numbers were as fellow via, For the third Reading, 108 j Against it, 9 1 Majority, 99. tile. A BERCROM BY objected to the insertion of the 10th of October in the Bill, as the petted to which the Bink of England might issue their 1/. and 21. notes. He would move that the words " sth of Fehrtiat'y," should be 'substituted for the words" 10th of October," t o the Act. The Wowing Clatt-e, by way of rider, was then read a first, second, and third time, and catriedt—" That any draft or bill drawn by any person on any banker or ether person, for the psy men: of money held by such banker or other person, for tie drawer,. should not comp within the restrictions of the Act." Mr. fIUM M movrd, that a clause should be introduced to com pel the Bank of /England and all country banters to make monthly .turns of the amount of their issues, riistinguishing the of; ;1. and a notes. Mr. HOBHOUSE seconded the motion, as essential to the in '. mations which the !louse ought so possess, since the propositions for deposits on the part of the Bankers, and for summary process recovering the amount of notes, had been rejected. On what prociple could country bankers refuw to skew the extent of their steilings in the currency-of the country, when there was rut ex of names or et amounts ? Had the Chancellor of the Beebe. spier adhered to the Bill originally brought in, which was upon' a good principle, and carried 4 through with that firmness which had distinguished the measure proposed by the Right Hon. Presidint ot , the Board of 'rode, whose arovincii , g add powerful speech ern- , braced the question upon grand and general printiples without re yard tolitrie petty interests, he bight have totnmanded titv ac ' quiescence of the Bankers. Mr. J. SMITH said, the effect of Milkers making depeslts to the amount of their issues would be to stai p such a value dpon' weir paper at would drive all gold: ut cil circulation. As to thol Ooposition which reluired them td fortiak illohtliir or *tonal tonna of . their hales, be was opposed to k, because a pre. *lice had bieh eicited against the Rushee% of whkk he, foe owg,e ! ogki.aot sulikludiy complain; that prejtkiiii kg as already so ttiustrous, that It had Wanted thesuits.of own hdpovrable and honest nien. Tbe. CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER resisted the' prim* motion, mot in costsequwestof any representation from the unitary banker., but because it was upon its own meriti ripen tn. objection, If any banking complides were established under the Dill Which was to be read to.night a second time before the House, or any chartered cempaniees—any companies to whom peculiar , privilege was to begiven—ke should hove no objection to demand some port of account ; but. particularly at the present moment, be was averse to putting the Treasury in possession of the private con cern, of individual bankers; and there were reasons why he thought Government would he better kept without such information. At all events, however, the clause, as it was proposed, was inoperat.ve, because it provided no penalty in case of neglect to return a true account; and this was the more material, u cases might be ima gined iii which the temptation to give an inacurate statement would be almost irresistible. Mr. H. GURNEY opposed the clause. Mr. PEA RSK said, that there was nothlrg to be apprehended from any undue issue of small potn by the Batik. Very few had been called for ; and they were anxious to put out as few as pos sible, to avoid those constant forgeries, and the prosecutions con sequent upon them, which all their exertion was unable to prevent. The Hon. Member farther stated, that no great quantity of notes could be necessary ' • for that three millions of sovereigns had b e et s issued from the Ba nk since Christmas last. Mr. Alderman HEYG ATE wished to see an issue faf small notes, foundecron the security, not of the Bank, but of the State itself ; and he could conceive no objection to such an arrangement. Mr. 'ELLICE concurred in the proposition of the Honourable Member for Aberdeen ; but begged to ask the Right Hon. Secre tary opposite ( Mr. Peel) whether he bad not stated, on the first night of the question of the issue of small notes by the Bank being brought forward, that Government was to be responsible for its being an issue within due discretion? Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that his observation had not gotie quite to the length of the construction put upon it by the Hon. Member. He had merely said, that the first issue of the Bank In December had been made upon the responsibility (that was, upon the responsibility for the adoption of the measure) of Government, end that the continued issue was to beconsidered ax a cour.e pro posed, not by the Bank, but by Government, for public convenience. Mr. MONCIE said, that the Chancellor of the Exchequer called his Hon. Friend's (Mr. Hume 's) measure nugatory, because it specified no penalty. The only effect of that omisslan was, that the fault would be punishable as a misdemeanor. The house tCen divided, when the numbers were— For the amendment, 24 I Againstit,l4s Majority, 116. Mt. HUME argued in favour of a compulsory clause giving a ready remedy against bankers who refused to pay their one-pound notes in gold. He should move an amendment, embodying the 'precise terms of the clause lb the Act Of the 37th of Geo. 111. ex tending the period, however, from three days to ten before any levy could be made. Mr. J. SMITH sold, that if the Hon. Member's amendment passed, nut a respectable banker in the country would ever issue another one-pound note ; and those which were out already they would get in as fast as possible. Mr. HUDSON GURNEY opposed the amendment. Colonel JOHNSON supported it. The clause was negatived without a division. The bill was then read the third time and pasted. COMMITTSS 01 SUPPLY. Mr. BROCDEN appeared at the Bar with the Report of the Coln. mittee of Supply. Mr. HOBHOUSE said, the Noble Secretary at War had as yet given no reason, in his speech or reply, why, in the eleventh year of peace, so large a militAry establishment should be maintained, at so enormous an expense. • He wished to know why so large a force was wanted in Canada, in the Colonial possessions, in the lonian Islands, and the West Indies? and more particularly, why so large a force in the Household Troops and the Foot Guards, unless it were to beep up an imposing fore* for unconstitutional and improper purposes? It became the Home now to interfere, and say at once it was the duty of Government to restrict the military force within the bounds prescribed by a vote of that House, in the year 1821 or 1822, he did not know which.— Wu this a period for the Noble Lord to come dower and propooe the maintenance of so large a military force, which bad augmented so unnecessarily to the amount of (in his mode of computing it) 13,008 men. This was the state of things in 1822, but no one could deny that the exigences of the public were more pressing and alarming at the present moment, than they had been even when such a reduction had hem considered necessary. As it was on record that in the year 18t111, the Military force of this country was, exclusive of troops serving in the East Indies, 68,088 men, and that our present force was to be taken at 86,240 men. making an increase of 17,152 men, be felt justified in moving as an Amend. ment to the reception of the Report of the Committee, —.$ 4 That it appears to this House, that the regular forces of 1822 - were cols 69,092, whereas the same forces for the present year amounted in 86,240; being an Increase of more than 17,000 in two years, end that no change hid taken place In that p er i o d to j us tify such an increase; and therefore it appeared expedient to reduce the number to, what it was in the year 1822." Colonel JOHNSON seconded the amendment. Lord PALMERSTON said that he did not at all rs ir— ritb the lion. Member; it was very excusable in the Hon. Member to ' take that opportunity of recording, according to annual custom, the opinions which he entertained ; ho was net accountable far the reasons which guided Gentlemen's votes in that Horse, but be never gave as a reason for not reducing the army, the domestic state of the country ; be did not ask a vote on thosetrounds ; they had tried in compllince with public opinion the experiment of eonnonty in this instance, and it bad failed, and they were obliged to call on the Parliament for an increase. There were 85 Regiments of the line, nine of which were in Great Britain, twenty-floe in Ireland, an& fifty-One Oa foreign service ; the Depots of those Regiments in this eountrr, essimadng each at 224 men, would make a total of 11,324 ; there wit* besides six battalions of Foot Guards. Taking into consideration those feces, those in transitu and those employed in the recruiting service, and the invalids. the amount of men in this country was no more than 22,700. After some other observations from the Noble Lord, The gallery wmelearei for a division, when there appeared, for the Amendment . 34 I Against It . 196 Majority against the Amendment 79. The Report was then agregd to. Lord PA LMERSTON obtained leave to bring in a Bill for the punishment of mutiny and desertion, and for the regulating the payment of soldiers in quarters. it was afterwards brought In, read a first time, and ordered to be read a 'second time to-morrow. HUSKTSSON gave notice, that to-morrow he should bring In a Bill to enable the Bank to apply the law of Merchant and Fac joy to any goods that may be deposited in their hands. The reading of the Usury Bill was postponed to the 17th instant. The other Orders of the Day were disposed of, and the House adjourned at Twatme o'CLoci.
