Hie wished i to askfwhether any order from that Depa rtment of t h e G, vernmint had authorised a refusal to stamp the notes of certain Bankers who bad made application in the usual way? Mr. lIERRIES had no hesitation in saying_that the Government had suspended, for the present, the %hull!). ing of one and two pound Bank notrs. It would be an the recollection of the House, that w4n the subject came under discussion at the opening of the Session,*rn opinion'aras started—he believed on the other side and became very generally expressed, that until the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Etchequer hrotiiiit his measure forward, the stamping of notes ought ytot to be allowed to go on. It was then also t:ited, tht the Government might bring in a short Bill to effect that purposi; but upon considerati.m it was held more idvisable to take the other course. Cnnsideri:ig the short interval between that time and Friday next, when the Chan. cellar of the Exchequer would bring the subject before the House s , it was deemed more expedient that the sexing of stamps to One and two pound notes should be auspetsded for that abort period. On that account it had been determined to issue the order to which the Honourable Member alluded. /1 1 11 IS EVENING, and airing the WEEK, will be 2h.. produced a NAUTICAL MSLO-DILANATIC BoaLim, called THE PILOT; OR, A TALE OF THE SEA.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, Fmatmar A Petition was presented against the report upon a Private Bill, for making a navigable canal for ships in the vicinity of Lowestoft; Which gave rise to some conversation as to the authority of the decision of the Committee. 11Ir. S. WORTLEY, in consequence of this misunderstanding, gave hotice, that he should, to-morrow. move for the renewal of the Standing Order Committee which sat last year. Lord HOTHAM presented a Petition from the Inhabitants of Leominster, praying for the gradual extinction of Shivery in the Colonies. The Noble Lord stated that the Petition was nume rously and respectably signed, and recommended it to - the partial- ' Oar attention of the House.—Ordered to be printed. Lord J. FITZROY promoted a similar Petition from the Tuba. bitants of Woodbridge.—Ordered to be printed. Mr. DICKINSON presented a Petition from the Glove Ma nuficturers of Yeovil, whom be represented as a numerous class of persons, praying that the law for allowing the importation of gloves under the low duty might not come into operation. The Honourable Member trusted that the Horse would attend to the prayer of the Petitioners ; and not sacrilee interest, which practice and experience had shown to be valuable, for the sake of doctrines imperfectly explained or understood, and that only in books. Sir T. LETHBRIDGE agreed with his Hon. Colleague, in. ' the hope that this large and respectable class of persons would set be 'milked to the fashionable notions of free trade. He believed that House would have Petitions from all parts of the kingdom, from persons following the same occupation—as well as from the Silk Manufacturers, whose case was very much the same—skewing the utter ruin which would fall upon them if this law were allowed to take effect.—The Petition was ordered to be printed. Mr. F. BUXTON moved fur a Return of the Number and Ton nage of all Steam Vessels which entered the Pon of London in the year ending in January, 11126.—Ordered. Sir J. WRO fTESLEY moved ftd. a Return of the Number of Banks established in Scotland, distinguishing the Chartered Banks and the Number of Partners, and such as are not chants ed. Ordered. POREIGH CoRN. Mr. W.

Also for an Account of the quantity of Grain imported from Ireland within the same time. Also for the Qaietted Price of Grain in this country for each quarter of the same two yea:l.—Ordered. BANK NOTE s [mars. Mr. CALCR'At T said, that he had intended putting question to the Right lion. Chautelnr of the giche per, but not seeing him in his place, he would ask it of thelionoursble Gentlemen opposite connected with theTressury. The subject was one of tie greateit inipartsuse v anti if his infer. IRISH Law' Olt lILRCTIoII. Mr. R. MARTIN rose to move for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the. Law of Election in Ireland, pur suant to notice. The Hon. Member expressed his con fidence that such a measure would receive the best attention of the House, and particularly of those tim bers who were connected with Ireland. The object of his Bill would be; in the first instance, to render the forty-shilling freeholder less-dependent upon his land . . lord. He hoped that Gentlemen who complained of the state of the forty-shilling freehidder would attend to this pan of the subject. One of the 'clauses of the Bill would be, to declate that no freeholder under 244 should be permitted to register his freehold without{ producing either the last receipt of the landlord from whom he derived, or of the person to whom he peril his rem. Would not this, he would ask, render oce condition of that freeholder more independerit, end therefore make him a better elector? The Bill woisleX further propose that such freehulder should not be per, mined to vote at any election until he prodeeed sim lar discharge. It he was not in a condition to pray his rent, if he was insolvent, then he was Ott ht to exer cise his right independently, The Hon. Member felt convinced that any Gentleman who wished Nell to the poor of Ireland, would desire to see this changleffec tee in the law. Another evil for which he meant to prt.pose a remedy, was the poser possessed by the Magistracy with respect to the registry of freeholds. He nthild venture to say, in the presence of any Knight of the Shire for that part of Ireland to which he belonged, that any man having a majority of the Magistracy in hit interest, could prevent his opponent from having his registers effected. He knew in his own case that he had for twilive months wished to obtain registries to oblige Friends of his, and that he had attempted to do so inef fectually. Every Gentleman must know the great evil arising from the want of a mandatory power to compel Magistrates to act in these cases. He should propose that regular attendance be given in market towns on stated days, and that the Clerk of the Peace, when not able to at. tend himself, should appoint a person, duly sworn, to receive ea.' daviu, and 'then give them to him to be registered. Too much power was, in his opinion, left to the discretion of the Sheriff in appointing deputies to take the poll, and possibly it may not be deemed inex pedient that the Sheriff should be obliged to submit a< list of per. son quahlied to act as Deputies ; which list the Candidates might reduce in the same manner as Special Juries are struck before tbe Officer. As be did not see many Hon. Members belonging to his own country present, it would perhaps be better for him. not to press his motion until be had consulted them upon is After a suggestion from the Seamus, the Honourable Member moved fee leaved to bring in a Bill to amend the law of Ilettioil in Ireland. Mr. C. HUTCHINSON thought it a delicate thing to Wet ter* with such laws otitite eve of a General Election. Mr. MARTIN said that the alteration of the system of refiitry could not elect the next Election. The course be should tale would be to introduce the Bill and have it printed, and then to let it stand over until after Easter. . . . Sir H. PARNELL expressed his hope that due notice would be given of the second reading of the Bill.—Leave granted. • Mr. HERRIES moved the Order of the Day foe the bringingop of the Report of the Committee of Supply. Mr. BaooDEN brought up the Report,. an the Resolutioa of the Cimmittee was agreed to—the Committee to sit agaite on Friday. Mr. HERRIES moved the usual Address for laying the Esti mates, and the Accounts of the Expenditure before the House. The said Papers, containing the Navy and Ordnance Estimates, were afterwards presented, and ordered to be printed. Mr. D. GILBERT moved for Returns of the Imports irid Ex ports of Copper and.
