t hot talemen who'were connected with that Conn- 1, tr y the itt erests of which he was particularly anxious to f u rther on this occasion. The Honourable Mem- 4 a rs to *horn he alluded were not backward in sup porting the metstres of Administration (Hear, hear); but there was not tAte of them who would say that , t histax was a matter of indifference to them: on the tea ry, they must admit that it appeared as a cruel r ieraoce on the landholderof Scotland (Near, hear). at it was so, must appear evident, when he stated, t h at the amount of duty for making a boll of barley ( bo ng about half a quarter) iss the last year, ex .seeded the original price of the article. He would ay no thing more in the way of detail, except to s tate rhe a progress of those duties, as they had been l a id "id then leave it to the candour of the House i go a ce ide whether it was an inordinate and excessive hurthen? The Noble Lord then went on to slim .t w hen an additional duty of ls. 21 per bushel va s laid on English Malt, in 1819, there was a duty of i s . Md. imposed on Scotch Malt—(Hear, Tbis increased duty, he observed, was attempted to lakistifiid on the principle of correcting illicit distil lation; but it had no such elect.. Many of the Hon. G en tlemen opposite could verify the truth of these s tatements. It was, he conceived, a very wrong mode of calculating, on the part of the Right Honourable Gentleman, because he found some small districts of land in Scotland, perhaps in the neigbbourhoc.d of Edinburgh, equal in production to the best land in England, to make his calculation on that land which did not, in fact, constitute the one hundred and tenth part of the whole account. lie took that scale for the purpose of introducing the grossest of all enact ments, which he had no reason to suppose the Right Bun. Gentleman would be willing to remove. Ile had, however, conceived it to be his duty to submit the observations to the House, although he had no hope of making any impression on the Right lion. Gentleman, after the obduracy which lie had dis played, for he could give it 110 milder name, on va rious other important occasions —(Hear, hear). Lord G. CAVENDISII said, he would vote for this motion, as one that would be of the greatest re lief to the landholder and the farmer: The trader and the manufacturer could (what was vulgarly called) keep their heads above water. But he would ask if that was the case with the agricultural in- tem!? Something must be done for the relief of the farmer ; and this was one of the first acts which would enable him to bear the burdens which had been im posed upon him. The landed interest and the prac tical farmer could not be better relieved than by the adoption of the motion of his Honourable Friend, the Member for Essex. Mr. WODEHOUSE was decidedly in favour of the repeal of this tax. Ile considered it as a mea sure necessary for the relief of the agricuhurist. The land•owner had been charged with a desire to raise the price of agricultural produce, that the farmer might be enabled to pay exorbitant rents—( Hear, inn). lie denied the assertion. Upon a fair calcu lation, light lands would produce about 40 bushels of barley an acre. Such lands usually let for 265. ta acre. He would put it to any Honourable Mem ber to say if that was too high a rent for the land osuer to receive? An Honourable Gentleman had talked of the servility of the landed interest to the elating Governrnent—(Hear, hear). The-Honour able Member might have used a more courteous ex pression —( Hear, hear). He knew not in what sense it bad been used ; but he would say, in reply, that the assertion was wholly unfounded-•-i Hear). The Honourable Member then proceeded to comment on the present state of the country, and to urge the ne cessity of a repeal of theta:, though in doing this he intended to .impute no censure on his Majesty's Go vernment far proposing to retain it. Mr...ELLICE explained, and assured the Honour ale Member he intended nothing disrespectful to the Landed Interest in the expression he had used. It escaped him in the warmth of debate ; and he regretted immediately that he had used it, and said thee, as now, that he intended nothing offensive to the Landed Interest in the use of it—(ffear, hear). Mr. HOLME SUMNER said that it was enough to shew that two and two made four : the circum stances must be considered in order to make that gropositina satisfactory to the mind. The war which Ltd required the present heavy taxation had been supported by the People. Never since man became a pugnacious animal (,t laugh), had a war been more cordially supported by the People--(Cheers front the Ministerial Benches). He voted for the repeal of the Horse TAX ; and he would vote with every Member who proposed any reduction of tales (Loud cheers fie* the Opposition) that might relieve agriculture; yet he would vote against the present motion. Lord FOLKESTONE expressed great regret that the pugnacious disposition of the Hon. Gentleman who had last spoken had induced him to resist the Illation, notwithstanding tliie reasons which he had given for supporting tt--(Hear, hear).—He (Lord Folkestone) did not think that the repeal of the tax mould relieve agriculture;' bat it would relieve the tornmunity, which was a much more desirable result —(Hear).—fie concurred in the arguments used by the mover and seconder of the motion ; but he re gretted that those arguments had produced no effect ma the Right }lon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer. It was his (Lord Folkestone's) decided opinion, that it vas impossible for the country to go on paying, lie interest of the National Debt—( Loud and Arncral citers).—.There might be circumstances where to break faith was the only meahs of keeping good faith. If faith could not be kept, it was not only Atusable, but proper to break faith. " Nento tene : ki off i, siiilut. rt might, therefore. be an act of good faith to break faith. If the whole was to be inferred to a part, if the substance was to be pre.' lewd to the form, if the reality was to be preferred to the appearance, the relief and security of the cono , kooky were to be preferred to the wishes of a small tan—(Eteer, hoer).--.This vkw of the subject was ?looming every day more clear to his eyes ) and he . "al glad to perceive that it was becoming daily _ t ft . ao 'open to the ob serva ti on o f o th ers . I t was in -2'7411;1E161e with the security, peace, and freedom of couatty, to keep what was called good faith with Public creditor. Let it be supposed that there * a. en invasion.that, as the Hon. General had I Llted last night, the Congress of Laybach sent an y to lavade this country, and that there was a A 44 teity to rai se money to pa y t h e i nterest o f t h e I lis.k s "4 to toi'ol•the invader, would it not be a gross darelictian of duty not to break faith with a part I la order to protect the 'thole- of the community ?-- (Great cheering, with some murmurs and confusion). ..-11 the interest of the debt could be paid only by constant suspensions of the Habeas Corpus, it fol lowed, in like manner, that to preserve our own free. dom we must break faith. He thought it right thus to avow his principles He hoped, however, that those who were disposed to support the motion would not take the alarm. The best way to avoid the ex tremity he had supposed—and an extremity •it was —the best way was, to support retrenchment, eco• nomy, and ) in short, to vote for the motion of his Hon. Friend—(Hear, hear). Mr. HUSKISSON was aware of the unpopular task which that man had to perform who rose in his place to oppose the repeal of a Tax, especially when it was represented that the repeal would relieve the distress of a great body of the people ; but on this occasion he felt he had a duty to perform, and that duty was to oppose the repeal of the Tax in the pre sent instance. He strongly reprobated the doctrine of the Noble Lord, as regarded keeping the public faith with the public creditor. He contended, that faith ought to be kept inviolate, and impressed with that opinion, he . could not consent, in the time of public necessity, to give up a branch of Revenue amounting-to upwards of £2,000,000 annually. The Hon. Member then entered into various details, to chew that the Malt Tax did not affect the agricul turist. This Tax was not like the Hop Tax ; it was not taken out of the pockets of the grower, but was taken from the consumer. Speaking of the distress of the country, he apprehended no man would say that taxation had brought the present pressure on America, neither had it here. He was ready to all..tv that the Poor-rates and Taxation were heavy evils, but they were not the original cause of our dif ficulties. The Hon. Member then read an extract from the Report made to Congress in America during the present Session of Congress, which described the distresses of America as greater than those of this country, yet they had not thought of breaking public faith; and he thought persons were disposed to look at our situation with too gloomy and desponding an eye. He was persuaded, with perseverance, we should come out of the struggle with our honour unim paired, and with increased strength. He considered our greatest difficulties as surmounted, and that we might now look forward to a diminution of expendi ture, and a gradual reduction of ta• ation. . He con cluded by moving the previous question. The cries of " Question, question !" which had beeri ' often heard during the Right Hon. Gentleman's speech, became loud and incessant. In the midst of them, Mr. WILBERFORCE said he was as anxious as any man to see the public burdens alleviated as much as possible ; but, at the same time, he was per suaded of the necessity of keeping faith with the public creditor. He would not aggravate, unneces sarily, the burdens of the country ; •for he thought the best strength of a Government would always be found to consist iu the good will and hearts of the People.—(Here the Honourable Gentleman proceeded for several minutes, in the midst of loud and inces sant cries of " Question").-41e complained of this interruption, and said, that Gentlemen who came, down late should have some consideration, if not for those who sat there patiently all night, at least they ' ought for the nature of the question itself. It was not one to be disposed of in a cursory and summary way ; it was not one they ought to proceed with pedibiu ire in sententiam. He hoped the subject would be temperately discussed—(Loud cries of " Question"). Mr. MONCK contended for the repeal of the Tax. He thought, as the rent-roll of the country was re. duced, so ought taxation to be diminished. Ad verting to what had been said respecting America, it should be recollected, that America had recently reduced the salaries of her Public Officers, and the numbers of her Standing Army one half—(Chars). The tax was anything but an equal tax ; and he could still less admit to the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, that the repeal of the tax would afford no relief to Agriculture. An increase had for the last three years taken place in spirits and beer, while a great diminution had taken place in the consump• tion of French and other foreign wines —(Hear, hear). This fact only proved that the different classes in society were sinking in their station, and that be who formerly drank wine, was now compelled to drink beer—(Htas, hear). Mr. LITTLETON would vote for the motion of the Member for Essex ; but would never vote for any motion that tended to infringe public credit. Lord CASTLEREAGH did not rise to argue the question at length ; though from the manner in which it bad been treated by some Honourable Gentlemen, it might appear that a new tax had been proposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The repeal of the tax would not benefit the condition of the poor. At the time that steps had been taken for the resumption of Cash Payments, the public pressure had been much greater. This was the third tax that the House, in the course of the Session, had been called on to repeal. Should the tax be remitted to-morrow, it woulG not lessen the price of beer to the consumer. The distress of America had not been removed, and as to the re. daction of her Army, the whole only amounted to 10,000 men.--(laud cries of Hear, hear ! from the Opposition). Mr. K. DOUGLAS saw no tax that fell more equally on the-country than the present. The Cuauceu.oa of the EXCHEQUER explained; Mr. Warrattw•replied, and the House divided, when the numbers were— For Mr. Western's ........ ........149 MO W ..... ...... Majority ....... The result was hailed by loud cheering. Mr. WESTERN then obtained leave to bring in a /fit to repeal the Malt Tat. The other Orders of the D3y were then read, and the Hones adjourned at hialf.past Two o'Clocb.

RECORDER'S REPORT.—Yesterday the RECORDER made a Report to his MAJESTY of the followits pri soners under sentence of death in Newgate, viz. John Collins Thomas Dowling, Andrew At'Lochiand, Jo seph Kitsell, and James Pitcher, for stealing in dwelling-houses.; Samuel Young, John Godliman, William Robinson, and Wa li.un Powell, for burglaries; Robert Mott, for forging an ac ceptante to a Bill of Exchange; Edwa rd Parsons, William Dawson, and William Messenger, for uttering forged Bank- . notes; George Barry and William Powell, for highway rob beries; Joseph Stanley, William Hardy, John Harris, arias Keylock, and George Harris, alias Keylock, for felony, having before been sonvkted of felony, and received the benefit uS clergy ; when --.Joseph Kitsell, James Pitcher, William Robinson, William Dawson, and George Barry, were order e 3 for execution on Tuesday next. The others were respited during his MAJESTY'S pleasure. KENT A ssi ZES.—Tuesday, at Maidstone, actions were brought against Sir Wm. GA RROW and THOMAS WARRE, Esq. for stopping up the foot-path on the edge of the cliff leading from Ramsgate to Pegwell Bay, which path, it was contended by the above Gentlemln, was their private property, as attached to their several residences. Many witnesses, some of them very old, proved the use of the pathway for a long series of years. The Jury, however, found a verdict for the defendants.—Another action of the same kind was tried. to prove the right of a foot-path from Ramsgate to Broadstairs—verdict the same.— On the Criminal Side, six prisoners pleaded guilty to the minor offence of knowingly having in their possession forged Bank of England Notes, and seve rally received sentence of transportation for fourteen years, viz.

The following is a translation of an Address from the brave Neapolitans to the Hungarian Soldiers, composed in Latin, and generally circulated among the Hungarian Troops: " Brave Soldiers of Hungary I-- , The insidious policy of Aus tria, which you have experienced for so many ages, calls you now to the first horrors of an Italian war, where you are not to fight for your beloved country or your religion, but against peaceable nations, who are armed only in defence of their here ditary King, andethe laws of their-native land. " Our liberty is assailed by the same iniquitous plan which formerly attacked your own—namely, that while a few fight, all may be subdued. It is, therefore, the common cause which le at stake in the plains of Italy; for what can be the design of this most unjust war, unless the insatiable lust of power which posses se with s e, thePr i:e ll a ce cea c tle an Aus t gti a ? iltless intention, only re-establish and maintain our ancient civil rights and customs within our do mestic limits; while we observe external faith, and while*e offer a peat example of peace and concord, a dreadful state of slavery is prepared for us, that all the bounds of Italy may lie exposed and defenceless to Austrian avarice and ambition. " To punish this act of aggression belongs to that Ozaaw Barrio ,who, by his terrible nod, dissipates the arms of the wicked. We, for our country, for our King, and our laws, for our wives;. our children, and our fire-sides, descend into the field of con- Diet ; do ye, therefore, who advance to join the battle, imitate your ancestors, and keep before your eyes posterity, that history may not have to relate that the noble Hungarians (made, as it were, the instruments of a flagitious tyranny), were employed for our destruction; nor that they could not preserv e their own liberty or tolerate that of others l" A letter dated Inland shit), on the 23d of Ja nuary, has been received in Glasgow, from one of the Radicals who were taken in arms at Bonnymnir. It mentions, that they had reached Teneriffe, and that nothing of consequence had happened. AR the party had got their irons taken off a • few days before the dam of the letter, which made their condi tion more confortable. There is a Clentlemaa on boatel who is gong out to settle in the. country, and he has promised to do as much as he can for the benefit of those who conduct themselves with decency and decorum. 'He and the Clergyman are employed in teaching the felons to read, and in giving them re ligious instruction.
