Sir ROBERT WILSON would take this opportu nity of reminding the House that there was a Bill now in progress, the object of which was to embody the various laws relating to vagrants, oankularly of George I. He did not see at present how 'the two Bills could go on pari panu.

Among all the Medicines of this denotninafem, the VEGETA lil.li SYRUP of DE VELNOS has obtained a distinction which its eficacy alone can support. It corrects, peribea, and sweetens Cle Blood ; and those who are afflicted with Scrofula, Leprosy, Scurvy, Scorbutic Eruptions, and many of those melancholy si!seases arising from impurity of the Mood and juices—those who r.if:r from diseased liver, and the dissipations and indiscretions of their youth, or whose constitutions are broken Clown and tle- Stilitated by mercurial, antimenial, or arsenic medicines, should solunit to a regular course of the Vegetable Syrup. The effect of titi, medicine, pitocipally on the insensible perspiratiots,"is such as r.ot to interrupt tither business or pleasure; it operates on the ...ritual juices, and requires only the common restraints of mode retion in dirt. his dissolved in the chyle of the stomach, is conveyed by the circulating fluids, and corrects their tendencies to all those .diseases which originate in vitiated blood.

Mr. CUnTEIs , presented a Petition froM certain Hop Planters in the Coianty o: Sussex, praying for a repeal of the Duty on Ilops.—Ordered to be printed. Sir J.

Mr. LITTLETON supported the Petition, which was read, and ordered to be printed. Mr. WEMYSS presented a Petition from the Tanners and Leather Manufacturers of the County of Fife, praying fur a re peal of the Tax upon Leather.—Laid on the table. Mr. HILL presented a similar Petition from the Leather Dealers of Whitchurch.—Laid on the table. Mr. LA MIITON said he held in his band a similar one from the Tanners and Leather Dealers of Durham. He begged his Hon. Friend (Mr. Beaumont) to postpone his motion for the re peal of that Tax, until it could be known what was the :men• don of Government on the subject. Mr. H. SUMNER said, he was resolved to vote against the repeal of that Tax. lie begged t.sat thellon. Member for Nor thumberland (Mr. Beaumont) would not postpone, or that he would relinquish it entirely. Mr. ELLICE said, the expenses of Government should first be reduced, and then they might talk of repealing taxes. Ile thought it more advisable to take £2,000,000 from what was called the Sinking Fund, than to adopt the plan proposed by a Noble Marquis (Londonderry) the other night, of which he dis approved, and which the Noble Marquis could never carry. Sir K N ATC ['BULL rose to express a hope that, in the present state of the business before the House, the lion. Mem ber (Mr. Beaumont) would postpone his motion relative to the Leather Tix. Mr. G. BENNET thought that enough had been said to in duce his lion. Friend to postpone his motion. Mr. BEAUMONT, in consequence of what had been sug gested to him since he came down to the House, said lie should consent to postpone his motion to Thursday, the I Gth of May. Mr. F. LEWIS was of opinion that the Salt Tax was that which was felt to be most opprcislve in the country, and there fore was entitled to a preference in any arrangunent for the re mission of taxation. Those who advocated, therefore, the aboli tion of the Salt Tax, would do well to postpone, at least until that object was gained, the consideration of the Tax on Leather. General G ASCOY NE took that opportunity of stating his opinion of the Resolutions laid on the table by the Noble Mar quis. Ile considered them fraught with danger to the commu nity, and would give them all the resistance in his powt r. Sir J. SHELLEY said, that as long as the Sinking Fund existed, he would vote for the remission of every tax until he had taken every halfpenny out of that fund.-s-The Petition was then brought up and laid on the table. On the motion of Mr. CANNING, the Committee for preparing and bringing•in the Bill for the repeal of the Statute of Charles the Second, disabling Roman Catholic Peers from sitting in Parliament, was appointed. Mr. JOHN SMITH presented a Petition from a body of Christian People, styled Separatists, complaining of the hard ships they endure in consequence of a conscientious refusal to take an oath.—Laid on the table. Mr. 11. SUMNER presented a Petition from Cuildford and Codaiming, against the Leather Tax. The Honourable Mem ber said, that he was a friend to the Sinking Fund, anti had always acted upon the conviction that Parliament ought to main tain all its engagements. As soon as a suit equivalent to the amount of this tax could be placed at the disposal of Parliament, he should vote for the repeal of the Leather Tax, in preference to the Salt Tax. Sir M. W. RIDLEY did not hope for much good from the remission of any particular tax. A great general reduction must take place. If the Leather Tax were remitted, he owned he did not expect much benefit to the Public. Ile remembered when the duties were taken off hats, everybody expected an instant fall in that article; but, on the contrary, a the took place. Mr. 11. DAVIS said, he would be happy to support the re duction of the Leather Tax, but that a certain already voted into the hands of Government, and he did not think himself justified at that stage to vote for the reduction. Mr. I'. CORBETT presentetra Petition from the Manufac turers of Slirewsbury, against the Leather Tax.—The Petition was laid on the table. Mr. M. U RE presented a Petition from the Island of St. Vi ncent, complaining of Colonial distress.—Laid on the table. Mr. V. LEW iS presented a Petition from the Tanners of Ileaumark, in Anglesea, against the Leather Tax.—Laid on the table, anti ordered to be printed. Mr. COKF. presented a Petition from the Hundred of North Greenlow, in Norfolk, complaining of Agricultural Distress.— Laid on the table. ?Ir. F. PALMER presented a Petition from Readir::, com plaining of the present system of Licensing Public-houses. Mr. GRENriLL and Mr. BENNET supported the prayer of the Petition, and stated the abuses arising out of the present system. After a few words from Mr. Mouce and Mr. Loci:I:all; the Petition was brought up, and ordered to be laid on the table. S:c ItOlll-.:RT SHAW asked leave to postpone his motion on the Repeal of the Window Tax in Ireland, until Wednesday, the Cf.'d of May. He did so, as he understood his Majesty's Ministers were about to adopt some measures with a view to relief. He wished to state, unless the repeal of the tax a!togt tiu r was intended by the Government, he would feel it to be his duty to piess the subject on the consideration of the house on the 2::d inst. Mr. R. MARTIN moved for leave to bring in a Bill to allow Counsel to plead for Prisoners in cases of Felony. Mr. LOCKHART said, this motion implied that at present justice Was not done to persons under such circumstances ; but, so far [ruin that being the case, the Judge was the Counsel. Mr. R. MARTIN defeuded the measure, as twin necessary for the ',roper cross-examination of witnesses for prosecutio,:s.. It was C:n:sidered strange, by Ulackstont, that prisontrschaq;ed with capital offences should not be allowed Counsel, when per sons accused of high treason . had Counsel appointed for them ; and this was the case in Scotland, In ail cases of feiony.—leave was then given to bring in the Buil. Lord KINGSBOROUGH sire tinted a Petition from the town of Cove, in the County ut Cork, praying for a repeal of I the Window :rig in Ireland.—Lail on the table. Mr. RICARDO moved fora Return of the quantity of Wheat, llal ivy; and Oat,, actually sold at Mark lane for the laq ten yours, el:uinguishing Rriti. t from Furel:,n Corn, and the quantity sold it. eaci), to the ist , at period rit..t the same could be o:asle U.Z. Mr. SCARLETT said, he did not anticipate one word of discussion that night on the Bill, as he had. formerly given notice that it was his intention to have it read the first time, and appoint a day for the second reading, on which day he. would propoe to take he discussion. All that he considered it necessi:ry to state at present, therefore, was, that this was a Bill to remove the restrictions on the free circulation of labour in this country. In the discus s ion he hoped to shew that this 13111 was free from the objections that were urged against.that which he had before in troduced.—The Bill was read the first.thoe, and ordered to be !cad the second time on the 1 Sth May. It was ordered to be printed. PA RLIA•dENTA RY RF.FORNI. Mr. JAMES said, he held in his hand a Petition signed by 500 persons, composing a part of the, body whom he had the honour to represent. The prayer of the Petition was for a speedy Reform in the Re presentation of the People. They stated that the great majority of that Home was sent to Parliament by a less number than one-thousandth part of the male adult population of the country. The Peti tioners entered into a review of the causes of the pre sent evils. They reprobated the policy of the present Government, complained of the Manchester transac tions, and the affair at the funeral of the late Queen. —They attribute] the extreme distress to excessive taxation. The lion. Member, in alluding to the Bill for the resumption of Cash Payments, denied the proposition of the lion. Member for Portarlington, that the change in the currency produced by that Bill, did not exceed ten per cent. He . felt warranted in distrusting the opinions of the Hon. Gentleman on this subject, because the lion. Gentleman had stated the difference between gold and paper to be first of all 3, then 3!, then 4, and, finally, 10 per cent. Any one who wculd take the trouble of reading Mr. Cob bett's pamphlets—(:l/augh )—must soon be of a dif ferent opinion. They were to be had at a cheap rite, and whoever paid proper attention to the arguments of that writer would be speedily convinced that the Hon. Member for Portarlington knew nothing-at all about the matter— (Much laughter).- Another cause of the distress of the country, was the suddenly with drawing of a qutntity of paper, from circulation, If his I-lon. Friend would take up the writings of Mr. Cobbett, he would see that prices depended, amongst other thing , :, on the quantity of circulating money in a country. The lion. Gentleman then condemned the plan which lied been laid before the House a few nights ago. Ile did not see how the evils arising out of half a century r,f misgovernment could be got rid of by converting a ritannity of wheat into flour, and the issuing of pawnbrokers' tickets to bankrupts and beggar s. Whatever might be the opinion of the Pe titioners, it was his Of r. 3 ames's) opinion, that nothing less than a reduction of from 30 to 35 millions of taxes would do any good. Ile was also an advocate for Universal Suffrage—(A loud laugh). He was an advocate for it, because he thought as every man in the country was liable to be called out to defend pro perty, he ought to have a voice in the making of laws, Mr. CUR WEN supported the Petition, and tated that, from his coming into Parliament, at the close of the American war, to the present time, be had sup ported the cause of Parliamentary Reform. Mr. RICAIWO said, that the Hon. Member had charged him with giving different opinions at clif. ; ferent times, as to the e) act sum in which the ctn. rency was depteciaed ; but he thought the Honour able Member ought,. in fairness, to have stated the perkd ; when he had given those opinions. Mr. JAMES, in explanation, said that the Hon. NTember for Portarlinuton (Mr. Ricardo) had cer tainly sta ed that the diderence bete een gold and paper was only ten per cent. but he (Mr. James) wes firmly I:ersuaded that it was not less than 50 per colt. The Petition was 7 laid teen upon the table, and cr tiered to be printed. ITALIAv ENIIGUANTS—INDTPENDENCE Or Wel* lt AMERICA.
