The penalties ought to be regulated as tolapp ly equally to the higher anti lower classes. Mr. W tone Mild in the present stilton( society. and wt ilh the manorial rights, was it possible to prevent the sale of game ? Blackstone, in treating on the fined laws, hail observ ed. that they is ere, in a weal measure, grown onsolete ; yet from this rout bad sprung up a hartard slip known by the game laws. now aro ivrd 111 and wactoning in OA Ingliekt rigour, both founded on the saute oisireastrotahle notions of permabent property in wild creatotrett, and Iwth pr (glue iv e of the !Claw tyranny to the c am moos; but with this difference—that the forest laws established only una onizOdy hooter ilormogl t the land ; the game laws had raised a little Nimrod in every manor.

Mr. Lsmn anggrated the priori iel y iif ()intuit,: such parts of the Bill as appeared to be of a iinestionahle nature till the next Parliament. Sir W.

Sir C. osca thlught that relief was most desirable to be Oyer, to those who had felt and vet feel the greatest pressure. A soiall farm might be of very good Lind, when stanewliat larger was not so. II e trufted Government would take the subject into due censi deratinn. Atter an observation err two front Sir M. W. it TUT.EY and Mr. Cam; nArr, the Resolution was agreed to. REGULATION AS TO TITHES Mr. CURWEN moved for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the laws relative writhes, which being seconded. Sir WILLIAM SCOTT reprobated the irregular manner in which the Petitions on this subject had been obtained, and exhorted the House to great caution. lie did not rise to oppose the introduction of the Motion, but he would oppose all haste in such a measure. Ile particularly and seriously would request the House to exercise great deliberatom and caution in proceislings on such subjects, which h:ul been, fof many centuries. muter the consideration of the purest and ablest men who had adorned this laud. The clergy could in. disputably prove die rights and stations they had held. lie must ex hort the !louse to great caution. Sir S. lioatii.Lv said there was no object in view for putting an end to the system of tithes. The House were told to take very par ticular care and caution with respect of touching the security of pro perty : but the object of the Motion was only to putt an end to incon venience and anomaly. Ile commended the gill of last year as having been drain up with great ability and skill. Ile was sure there must be a wrong impression. if it was supposed the Bill would unjustly affect property, and that the Motion did not go upon the ideas of ea taut petitioners. Mr. LOCKHART agreed to the opinion of their duty to uphold all rights and properties ; yet he could not agree with the Right Hon. and learned Gentleman as to the extreme caut&sn and fear with which the !louse was to be inspired. The Bill prOpOßed went' merely to make regulations on a subject of property, to winch other species of property were subject. The legislature had formerly felt the necessity of unit ing as far as possible, the interest , and feelings of the tithe-holder and tithe payer. lie had never known a Committee that had paid more regard to the interests of the church. r. PEEL observed that a future opportunity would certainly he a better one for entering upon a discus;ion of this matter. Mr. SMYTH thought there were some difficulties on the subect, which it might lie impossible to overcome. lie agreed as to the propriety of caution ; but would also reserve himself for a future %quoit unity. I.ord CasTLEar.arin thought it better to postpone a diatossion of such importance. He had beard nothing from his learned and Right nem. friend. that tended to deprive the House oldie fullest considera tion of the business. . . . . Bnornit st thought it was better to reserve di:•eitbsion. Mr. rt!Rwr:g thought himself rather nnfairly treated. Ile had said that be wished the Bill to Ire fairly discumal. It had no sort of connexion with the Petitions which had been adverted to. Ile did not expect that it would have been combined with thew. Sir \V. SCOTT CltriAlllcit. Sr F.
