Drams (one of the Clerks of the House) brought up the nameaof the following Members, as those chosen by ballot this day, to decide upon the merits of the Petition against the return for the City of Kilkenny :—Mr. R. Price, Mr. G. Smith, Sir E. C. Car rington, Mr. Corbett, Sir T. D. Acland, Mr. M. Bell, Mr. Wilbra lam Egerton, Mr. Spottiswoode, Mr. H. Maxwell, Sir J. Yorke, Sir R. Hill, Sir W. Ingilby, Mr. H. It. Westenra, Mr. A. Dawson, and Lord F. L. Gower. Mr. Dyson likewise brought sip the following list of Members chosen by ballot this day, to decide upon the merits of the Petition against the return for Coventry :—Mr. R. A. Slangy, Mr. C. Wood, Mr. S. T. Kekewich, Mr. J. Cocks, Mr. E. Protheroe Mr. John Ramsbottoni, Mr. John Forbes, Lord Sandon, Mr. J:Fitzgerald, Mr. Wigram, Sir J. Wrottesley, Mr. W. Ward, Mr. W. Burrell, Mr. T. Estcourt, and Lord Ennismore. Mr. H. DRUMMOND presented a Petition from certain own ers and occupiers of land in Scotland, against any alteration of tie Corn Laws. Sir T. LETHBRIDG E took that opportunity of asking the Right Hon. Secretary of State for the Home Department whether there was any chance of the question respecting the Corn Laws be ing postponed beyond the day fot which it was at present fixed ? Mr.Seerstary PKEL said, he felt very confident that the promise which he gave on a former night, namely, that the question would be brought forward on Nlonday, the 26th instant, by his Rightlion. Friend the Se y for Foreign Affairs, would be fulfilled. His Right Hon. Friend was yesterday fully confident that the state of his health would permit him to submit to the House on that day, the propositions which Government had framed on the subject. As be had before said, it was not the wish of the Government that the sense of the House should be definitively taken upon those pro positions on the night they were ptoposed. The same course which was pursued in 1815 would be adopted. Certain resolutions would be submitted to the House, brought up merely preforms, and the final decision of the Horse upon them would be postponed to a future day. Mr. BARING hoped that the Right Hon. Gent. would not feel It necessary to come down to the House on the day mentioned at any hazard to himself. (Hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that his Right Hon. Friend felt it to be his duty to all parties concerned in the question, and respectful to the House, to fulfil the pledge which had been given, if possible. If he could not come down, he trusted to the indulgence of the House to forgive him. (Hear.) It was, however, his present belief, and that of persons most competent to form an opinion, that he would be in the House on the day fixed. Mr. HUME presented a petition from the inhabitants of Aber deen, praying for the repeal of the Corn Laws. Mr. MACQUEEN presented a Petition from owners of land is Bedfordshire, against the repeal of the Corn Laws. Mr. F. WILSON presented a Petition from certain owners and occupiers of laud in the county of York, against the repeal of the Cori Laws. Mr. FITZGERALD presented a similar Petition from the Hundred of Welford, in Suffolk. Mr. MARSHALL presented several Petitions from manufsc in various parts of the county of York, praying for the repeal of the Corn Laws. Mr. SPOTf IS WOODS presented a similar Petition from some inhabitants of Edinburgh. Lord MILTON presented a great number of Petitions against any alteration of the Coin Laws, Irons the owners of land iu va rious parts of Yorkshire. The same Noble Lord presented a Petition from the inhabi tants of a Township its Yorkshire, praying for the repeal of the Corn Laws. • The Marquis of TAVISTOCK presented several Petitions from the owners and occupiers of land in Bedfordshire, agaiast any al teration of the Corn Laws. Mr. DAWSON moved fora copy of the Fourth Report of the Commissioners of Education in Ireland.

I NGI LIST presented a Petition (runs two other parishes in Lincolnshire to the same effect. Colonel CAVENDISH presented a Petition from Derby against the Corn Laws. Mr. CA LCIA FT presented a Petition from owners and occu piers of land In Norfolk, against the new regulation of weights and measures. Mr. BROWN LOW presented a Petition from certain Catholics of Monaghan, praying fur Emancipation. The lion. Gent. also postponed his motion with respect to Orange wocessiuni, to Wed nesday the 28th last. on account of the absence of Mr. Gun!burn. PUBLIC ACCoUNTS. Mr. M A BERL'S% in consequence of the difference which had occurred on chi preceding night with resFect to the estimates and cash account, moved that there should be laid before the House certain additional accounts upon those subjects, which would make misunderstanding hereafter impossible. Mr. HER HIES was prepared to prove that the statements al ready laid before the House were perfectly correct; and there were p.pers upon :be table from which the Hun. Gentleman might gather all the information that he wished. He should not, however, resist the produ:tion of the new returns. Mr. HUME would be glad to have results distinctly in the docu ments of Ministers themselves; and then they could afterwards take no objection to them. CHURCH LANDS IN CANADA. Mr. W. HORTON moved, pursuant to notice, for leave to bring in a Bill, authorizing the disposal of a portion of those lands called the Clergy Reset ves, in Upper and Lower Canada; a contract for the sa e of those san.e land. with the Canada Company having reeently been broken off. The Honourable Member alluded to the fact, that the original Act of 1791, a hich liad parcelled our these tracts of Clergy land, had been intended by Mr. Pk, its author, to be open to revision. The sale of the lands would not only , cultivation and improvement of the Cos relieve the House from the necessity annual grant for the maintenance Clergy in Canada. Mr. STANLEY believed that n one feeling throughout the Canac this question ; for all parties agreed of the Clergy lands, in their pre. , ent rated state, was a serious obstacle to improvement in the colony. In one circumstance particularly, the leaving these tracts of land lying waste, did great mis chief. The roads were kept up in Canada by a law which c' mpelled every proprietor to make and keep up the road through his own estate ; now, when a road came to one of these unpossessed tracts, it must eiiher, stop, or the parties living and holding in the vicinity' of it, must carry it on, through property which did not belong to them, at their own expense. Mr. HUME supported the motion, and was glad to, hear that the contract with the Canada Company, by which all the lands would have been sold in one lot, was broken off. He hoped care would be taken that the lands should be so divided and managed by public sale, that proprietors would have an opportunity of. purchasing such lots or parts as lay convenient to their own possessions. Mr. LOMBE said, he approved of the measures ge nerally, but should be averse to any system of quit rents.) Mr. WILMOT-HORTON said that measures would be taken to have roads and other improvements made and kept up through those parts of the reserved lands which still remained in the holding of the Clergy. In reply to a question from Mr. BARINO, Mr. WILMOT-HORTON, said, that the Church property was secured by the Canada Act of 1791, which appropriated one-seventh of it in the manner he had stated. Mr. BARING said that he had the strongest objec tions to this appropriation of land in Canada, for the Church of England. He was as zealous a member of the latter as any man, and as anxious for its welfare, but he cautioned the Government how thev proceeded with giants of this kind, which were calculated to sow the seeds of dissension and produce in Upper Canada those sad difficulties, the ixcprrence of wh ch they all deplore in Ireland—(Hear, hear). Well indeed it would be, if they had any reasonable chance of making either the population of Canada or of Ireland good members of the Established Church; but when they could have ao prospect of such a consummation, he had very great doubts of the policy of church grants of this nature. He would beg to call_ the attention of Hon. Gentlemen to an answer given by the Attorney- General for Canada, to a question put to him in a Com mittee of last Session. Tile question had reference to the comparative number of Protestants who were known in that settlement. The Attorney-General was asked, ''s how many Protestants sit in the Legislative Assem bly ?" His answer was 41 two," one of whom he was himself—(Hear, hear.)—Such was the situation of the Church of England in Canada, and it spoke volumes upon the ',Obey of this attempt to root their Church into the soil. Instead of promoting the Church of Eng land by such measures, they were taking the sure course to undermine its true interests, and prevent the diffu sion of its belief—(Hear)—He concurred, however, in the expediency of disposing of these reserved lands in the manner now proposed. Mr. WILMOT-HORTON explained, that whether the mode of appropriation of lands by the Act of 1791 was politic or not, still it was the law ; but all he now proposed was a certain alienation of the Church lands, for the general improvement; so that as far as he west 'he was deviating from the provision which the Hon. 'Member deemed objectionable,. and rather acting in the spirit of his suggestion. Mr. WARBURTON said, that some provision should be made from those lands for the education of the peo ple. He should think there ought to be no objection to have one-seventh set aside for that purpose. Unless they altered their measures with respect to Canada, they could not expect that she would be a source of strength to this country. He would advise them to re flect seriously on what had been said by that great man Dr. Franklin. If, said he, in his examination before the House, we are to sow and reap, but are not allowed to ship our produce for exportation, I would advise you to send out your ships and bring home the Colonies. The people of Canada were allowed to export their grain for one year. He did not know whether the permission to do so was still continued. Mr. STANLEY rose to explain. He by no means approved of reserving so large a portion of land, for what was called the Established Church of Canada, but which was not in truth established there, no: did he think it ever would. Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN complained strongly of the Stock Companies which had been established kir colonization, and pointed out how fatally they had de ceived individuals, who had under their auspices gone to Colombia. Mr. WILMOT-HORTON said, that a general decla mation against these Companies had nothing to do with the question before the House. Mr. A. DAWSON said the system was originally a bad one. The Act of 1791 was ridiculous. It provided a mill on acres of land for the established Clergy of Canada—that was, in fact, for a Clergy which did not exist, and the lands were waste lands. The present was merely an attempt to improve on an originally bad system. How were those lands to be made productive for the Clergy ? Were they to be let, as in Ireland, on Bishops' leases ? There were no lands in the world worse cultivated than such as were let on such a principle, because, from the shortness of the lease, the tenant had no induc. ment to improve.—Leave was given to bring in the Bill. all which, except 83, were obtained by purchase; of these 83, over whose appointments the Commander-in-Chief had control, 26 were taken from the half-pay list. Mr. UUME then moved for returns of the number of Commissions in the Army that have become vacant without purchase, and have been filled up ; stating how many of those appointed have been taken from the h.. 11 pay list during the same period.—All the returns ordered. PRIVATK BUSINESS. Mr. B. COOPER, to do away with the abuse too prevalent, of Members voting upon Private Committees, without having attended to the subject upon which they thus decide, moved, that after a Private Committee on a Petition shall have been formed, additional Members may be added to it on special application; and that no Member shall be permitted to vote who has not dili gently attended to its proceedings. Mr. MONDAY seconded the Resolution; and after a few words from Mr. CA LCRAIT and Mr. WirtzNs, the Resolution was agreed to. CANADA S&TTLZRI. Mr. HUM E wishei the Hon. Secret at y (Mr.Wilmot- Horton) would have offices established in Glasgow, 'Dublin, and other sea-port towns, for the purpose of facilitating the conveyance of emigrants to the Colonies. The grant of a million of acres of waste land to the Canada Company, would materially promote the per poses of emigration, and the impro►ement of Canada. The Hon. Member moved an Address to his Majesty, for returns of Copies of the Grants of Waste Lands in Canada; of the Grants and Sales to the Canada Com pany, and all other Grants and Sales in that Colony; stating the numbers of acres, the names of grantees, and the sums received and to be received, during the last seven years. Mr. WILMOT-HORTON said the returns were in actual progress.—The Address was agreed to. only materially aid the all the establishments of the coontry. To the effecting to say the country, but would that object, he would move in addition for returns of which cessity of making an the total numbers of appointments to first commissions millet nce of the Protestant in-the Cavalry and Army ; and of the promotions to before Lieutenancies, Captaincies. Majoritie., and Lieutenant that a t there would be but Colonelships, in 1826 And 1827, stating how many of for the 'trades with respect to them were effected by purchase or otherwise. tr siOn hi eed that the existence Lord PALMERSTON said the number ri ant corn- fareat sent waste and uaculti- missions appointed last year amounted to 56k, all of had b . _ .--1 I-- ••--'----...r_ eh... hiphly SUPPLY. On the report of the Committee of Supply on the Army Estimates being brought up, Mr. HUME said, that seeing the Chancellor of the Exchequer in his place, he wished to ask him whether the estimates as they stood, were meant to include all the expenses of the expedition to Portugal, or whether he intended to propose some addition at a firureoppor- 1 tunity ? He thought it was time for the Right Hon. Gentleman to be IJoking about for the ways and means with which he was to pay the estimates. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said; that it was impossible for him at this moment to say whether he should propose to the House that the addi tional expenses incurred by the expedition to Portugal should be defrayed by an addition to the army extra ordinaries, or by means of a separate vote. In whatever shape it might be presented, he did not think it would be so formidable as the Hon. Member seemed to think. On the first Resolution being read, Mr. WARI3UKTON wished to know whether all the expense of the Portuguese expedition would be de frayed by this country, or any part by Portugal, and if so, what past? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that this Government was nor to pay the expense of the subsistence and the charges for barracks of the troops in Portugal, which were to be defrayed by the Government of that country. The Resolution was then put, and carried. 9n the Resolution for a Grant to the Royal Military Coeges, Mr. HUME objected to the great expense incurred in the education of young men for the army at the various Military Colleges, which bore no proportion to the number of cadets. In the last year only thirty eight cadets who had been educated at the Military Colleges had entered the army, and he believed that for some years there had not been more than ten young men at Woolwich: Mr. Secretary PEEL thought it was necessary that Officers should be educated in such a manner as would qualify them for entering the service. The Honourable Member was mistaken in supposing that only thirty eight cadets had been educated ; for in time of peace two hundred, and in war four hundred, were educated at these Colleges. Mr. MABERLY admitted that it was necessary our Officers should be properly educated, but he thought this ought to be at the charge of their friends. He had no doubt that 10,0004 a year might be saved if the =latter were referred to a Committee. Mr. D. W. HARVEY wished, that not only this branch, but the whole of the Estimates, should be re ferred to a Committee, with a view to public economy. Mr. Secretary PEEL said, the measure suggested by the Hon. Member had-been adopted in 1817, when the scale of this part of our expenditure was fixed. • Mr. D.W. HARVEY thought that it would be ser viceable to the country if such a Committee were to be appointed every seven years. Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN remonstrated against the excessive expenditure on account of the military establishments of the country. Mr. LOMBE went over various items of the Army Estimates, and complained generally of the want of ex planation which was visible in the accounts. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER ex plained. The Hon. Gentleman could not be aware that the votes to which he had alluded had already passed the House. Had the Hon. Member stated his obj ctions to those votes as they we.e separately pro• posed, he would have been answered at the time, for he (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) was quite sure that there was no disinclination on the part of his Noble Fiend (Lord Palmerston) to afford any iufornsation on the subject. Mr. LOMBE explained. Lord HOTHAM defended. the Household Troops from the observations of the Hon. Gent. (Mr. Lombe). Mr. MONCK said, that the present vote was the most objectionable which the present estimates con talked. The country, he contended, was burdened with an army disproportioned to her means, and the Member for Aberdeen was per (icily right in contending that we were maintaining an unnecessary military estab lishment.—The vote was then passed. On it being moved that the sum lei 56,2721. 17s. 6iJ. be gtanted to his Majesty for the support of garrison, at home and abroad, !Ir. HUME rose to oppose the Resolution as he had done on previous occasions. Before adverting, however, to the grounds.on which he did object to it, he begged to say he concurred most cordially with the suggeqion ,hich had been made for the appointment of a Com - to take the whole Estimates into consideration they were brought before the House. He th oug h t better time than the present could not be c h qsen the Appointment of such a Committee. A Com m i e . n had been sitting for four years, inqu;rina into dir est offices, and the whole of the information w hi c h f been obtained under that Commission would b e highly useful. He objected to the resolution b e f ore the House, because it opened the door to abuses, I n a great number of the garrisons,as they were called, there was no resident Governor, and the whole system presented a nest of sinecures. But it had been urged in is defence that these offices were retained for the purpose of rewarding meritorious Officers, and he confessed that if it could be shewn that none but meris torious Officers were appointed to them, he sho.ild be 'inclined to relax in his opposition t.• their continuance. That, however, was not the case. He had made some inquiries as to the use of some of the garrisons, and he found that they a ere of none whatever. In going throegh Berwick for instance, he had inquired into the state of the garrison, and learned that there was not a single gun mounted. The gene too were dismounted on a notable occasion. Some time since when distress prevailed, the Right Hon. Secretary for the Home Department had them so ept away lest the Radicals should seize upon them, and direct them against the authorities. Th e guns were dismounted, entirely done away with ; but 1 not so the Governor. Oh ! not he and his salary still continued in existence.—(Laughter.) He did not dish to interfere with what were termed vested rights; he merely wished that when any vacancies occurred 111 the Garrison appointments that the country should re• ceive the benefit of such vacancies by the sinecures being discontinued. The Governor and Deputy Go. vernor of Berwick had no duty to perform, although they received considerable salaries ; and the same was I the case with the Governors and Deputy Governors of Blackness Castle, Chester, Dover, and other places. But he was particularly desirous to know what services the Governor of Dartmouth, A. H. Houldsworth, had ' performed, to merit his appointment. Perhaps the Noble Lord (Palmerston) would state to the House whether that Gentleman received the appointment for the votes he had given while a Member of that House, or for ulna other services. In short, the more he looked into the sob• ject the more he was convinced that it wanted relorma tion. If there were meritorious Offi:ers who required some consideration, why, not let pensions be moved for in a regular way; he therefore should propose, as an Amendiaent, that it was the opinion of the House that the proposed grant was injurious, and that every sinecure appointment should be discontinued as it became 'a. cant; and that whenever an officer should be thought worthy of extraordinary reward for his services, that such reward should be given by means of a pension granted by that House. Sir ALEXANDER HOPE remarked, the Hon. Member for Aberdeen had admitted, that if it could be shewn that the different sinecure offices in the Garrisons were given to meritorious Officers, he should be inclined to relax his oppositioM But he had no sooner made that admission, than he directed his remarks en tirely against sinecures, and did not even attempt to shew that these appointments were not held by officers who had served their country long and faithfully. The Hon. Gent. had spoken of the Garrison of Berwick having no resident Governor or Deputy Governor; but the House would hardly think those appointments in improper hands when they learned that the Governor had served fifty-tir years, and that the Deputy Governor bad served' forty nine years—(Hear, hear).—He had taken some trouble to inquire into the subject, and he found that the offi cers attached as Governors or Deputy Governors to 39 garrisons, mustered among them no less than 1 988 y eats of service.—(Hear, bear).—He himself was Lieu tenant Governor of Chelsea, and he and his respected Chief had between them 107 years of service —(Hear, hear). Surely, then, there was no ground for the asser tion made by the Hon. Gentleman that those appoint ments were not given as a reward for services --(Hear' It had been stated, that of all professions the army was, worst piid,and it would be both ungenerous and unjust deprive it of a source of distinction and emolument which it had been allowed to enjoy for upward. of a century. But there was another point worthy of consideration. Colonels of regiments received no more now than they did in the reign of Queen Anne; so that if those ap pointments were taken away, they would labour under very peculiar disadvantages—(Hear, hear). Mr. MA BERLY advised his Hon. Friend (' Hume) to withdraw his amendment—not that he Moberly) did not approve of the principle upon which it was made, but because he thought a Committee 11,. the whole of the Estimates would be the most efficient mode of correcting them if necessary. Lord PALM ERSTON expressed his astonishment the course pus sued by the Honourable Member ' Aberdeen, especially after the remarks which had r viously fallen from that Honourable Gentleman. question involved in the Amendment proposed lint one of detail, but of principle, and it could be mon conveniently argued in the House than in a Committee. The garrison appointments might be divided into classes—the one required active service, and the other consisted of sinecures. To the former no objection h been taken, and he, therefore, should turn his attenti to the latter. He maintained, that it was necessary Crown should have the power of rewarding meritoriou , Officers, by giving them such appointments; and maintained also that those appointments had been perly distributed. In support of his assertion, he men tioned the names of General Tarlton, Lord Hill, Sir ( 7 Nugent, Lord Donoughmore, the Duke of Wellingo and several other distinguished Military Officers among those who had received appointments. The H , Member for Aberdeen's objection did not in reality pear to be so much to the expense as to the power the Crown to give away the offices--(Hear). He seer to wish to invest the power in that House, and to to the Crown in place of it, nothing—unless the of applying for a pension could be considered return. He (Lord Palmerston) objected strong', such a course, from its unconititut - ional nature. acknowledged and felt the high importance of I rause of Commons ; but when once it endeavour to assume an undue power and to wrest author! from the other blanches of the Legislature, it would incalculable mischief. The House of Commons cou, have no right to command the army—the Constar had not invested it with any such power, and that sideration alone was b u tic iritt to induce bim to of the amendment—(hicar, hear.) Mr. BARING approved highly of the suggestion the appointment of a Committee. It appear.d to ti.at one of two courses must be pursued, unless country wa s to be cn irely overwhelmed. A Co a.mi A RNI I COMMISSIONS. Mr. HUME, before moving for returns of the num ber and rank of Offic.rs on lull and half-pay, (Ist and 2d rate) on the Ist of January, 1827, wished again to call the attention of the House to the immense increase of the Army expen.es, notwithstanding twelve years peace. In 182'2 the number of Officers on half-pay was 13,600; and in 1826 that number, instead of being lessened, was increased by 118. He would bring for ward a mution founded on the returns on a future occasion. Lord PALMERSTON said, he did not rise for the purpose of objecting to the motion, nor ►hould he now repeat the arguments which he had employed so often belore in answer to the Honourable Gentleman. When the Honourable Gentleman said that every new ap parturient became an additional burthen to t e pub lic, he must confine that observation to Ensigns and Comet,.
