THE STATESMAN. ti nne d in a whisper. It appeared that with that condition the Reverend Divine would sot, or could not, comply. The five electors, however, did not abandon their desien. Accordingly they met again a t another inn, near CameHord. called the Five Lamm, where a letter signed Japes Harvey was read, offer ing 60001. far the power of returning two Alemhers for the borough of Camelford, to be distributed among any Meets (befog a majority) of the Electors. This proposal was agreed 10. The reply to the let. ter, containing the acquiescence in the proposal, was addressed to a Mr. Sibley, the portlier of Mr. Hal lett. It was proved before the Committee that Mr. Hallett had held up sus Mooned pounds before his pa:rner, Mr. Sibley, and bad said—" Sibley, do yes Molt the Camelford Electors will bite at this:" As a security for the money, it appeared that the half antes of the sic thousand pounds were depo sited at Camelford. Ultimately, however the eon. opine, failed and the election was lost. It did not appear, however, that the balf.ootes bed been re turned; for it was proved that Hallett or Sibley had eaid—le What damned rogues those Comelford Elec tors aro ! do you know I could sot get back the half motes from them without making some comprouti.e!" —After all this he really did not see how the House could forbear from coiling Mr. Hallett before them; considering that be had sluconded to avoid 'Wog evidence before the Committee. It had also appear ed before the Committee, that there were two sets of candidates, both on tits Ministerial :interest ; but that, as they found they could not all come in, they bad agreed to settle their deltas by the very tasteful mode of drivriaig tickets net as tea-pot.—( Lank ) 1 By that decision the lot bad fallen on Mr. Stewart and Mr. Collett—the Iwo unauceessfol Candidate being Coles,' lissom and Mr. I n hi s a pi. Wen there was no mode so effect's! for the abolition of the abuses and corruptions of the Borough System, , a 4 by taking each particular case that came before the Morse, and punishing those who immured to be g u ilty. It was non contended by an lionoarable Member (Mr. M. A. Taylor) that it was hard to punish the whole 49 Electors for the misdeeds of only fire of them. Bet is that argument there was ao force. It seemed to him that such a system as that which pre vailed in the Borough of Camelfird, went to the esta blishment of two Moues of Lords ' sod that the Peerage was thereby represented in both Houses.— Pear, hear 1) He, therefore, thought that the Mouse would consult its own dirtily by prosecuting the matter. _ Lord CASTLEREAGII assured the Hos. Mem ber be hod edgiest!, been in favour of the poet raiment of the &boo to Moorish and the amanitas. lion of Mr. Hallett. The Honoorable limber hat. log now intimated an opinion tbat Mr. Hallett could carry the enquiry and proof further than the Con. wine* had bees a►le to do, lade him still mere de sires, enquiry should take place. 110 only hoped the debate would sot betakes sow, and ibe declaims on Monday, Mr. HARVEY snared the Noble Lord, (bet, In what he had said respecting the Tressery, be bad not loteaded soy personal mission to the Noble Lord.

A great law Authority, in another place, had so narrowed the evideeco—(Order, or der!)—Tbe ►videace tires bad bee. so sorrowed, that they retold not eternise too may witnesses. Mr. BROUGHAM Mooed Mr. Hallett might be received as a mimeos, tireogh he was said to bare ab. wooded I. Order 110 t to give evidence. He therefore thought he should be essesined to.esorrow. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR withdrew his opposition to the sootiest. _ After smite eoa►ermlioe between Mr. Wynn, Mr. Bathurst, M►. P.

Harvey were ordered to atisod the Hesse on Wed ands), nat. The New I{set► Wales Duties Dill was com mitted. Mr. BENNETT uid. this was a meson broeght forward to indemnify Governor Maegoarrie for ill.. gal isles imposed by him ow toeo■ge, and a Poll•tea ens remote teasing the Colony. Ile therefore moved to omit the whole of the first clean referring to this imiemoity. M►. FORBES defended the mingled of Governor Mamma,. An Hoe. Gentleman bed thrown out insinestioes spinet Governor Macqoarris which be was not borne eat in stating. Mr. WI LBERFORLE said, it was impossible for Mtn to mambo what bad been said oa a former de bate. Mr. FORBES said, nothing, be must admit, could be more demised,. to a tido; Colony, like Now Booth Wales, then to impose export duties On the COMllledititi mot oat of it; but those (Wits were laid oa byr his Majesty's Government. Mr. BENNETT said, be bad formed no decided opinion as to the comfort of Governor Macqoarrie ; bet what be had hoard from the evidence, warranted him in saying whet he hod. Mr. WILBERFORCE said be knew Governor Marginede to be a fine, bravo, soldier.like man ; bet absolute power was net to be teemed to any man. Mr. W. WYNN oppesed this Act of Indemnity, upon as allegation, witherst prnof to support it. Mr. GOULBLIRN said, the simple question was, •Father the Ilee►e twofold indemnify of for acts thommltted seder the direction et Government. Go. ',tone Macquarrie ought to be indemnified, as be had ertlhlished the port regulations under the only legal advice he enstil obtain is that colony. Mr. WYNN said, whether this was a case for in. &amity or nor, the merits of it ought not to depend on the @gentle° of an Under Secretary of State; bet should be supported by the Report of a Committee. Besides, he wessfraid the Bill could not pass althorn the pretties. Resolution of a Committee of Supply; because it proposed to confines dillies, now admitted to here been, in the first levylog cf them, inert. Mr. ROBINSON said, that be could state lateral instances in which duties bad originated, wit► respect to the Colonies, in Committees of the libels Hesse, awl not in Committees of Supply. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER sod Mr. BROC DEN, she Chairman of the Committee, were of the same opinion. Mr. COULBURN then proposed that the Chair. man sboold report progress, and ask lease to sit again to.nsorrow, which was granted. Lord JOCELYN moved that the House should agree with the sesegulateet made by the Lords io Chase's Relief Bitt. Mr. CANNING said, Ibis matter arose out of a practice of granting loans by British subjects to the native Nieces in Indic These persons did so in the teeth of an Act of Pediment, proeselpted in India against seek practices. He opposed this Bill because it first recited the siolalieo of the former Act of P.r. Himont, and then stated, that for this reason these persons who entered into this loan should be indern nilied for say gross vinlation of (bat Act. Their Lortlshivs bed sent this Bill down in order to stultify the Howie. Ile should, therefore, move that the amendment of the Lords should be taken into con sideration this three months. _ _ _ Mr. WARREN said, the Houses of Lords and Commons bad speed that these unfortunate Gentle. men should be relieved • and yet they were new a ked to refuse that relie f. Ile contended, that this Loon was benvirial to the Madras Gosereseent ; sod, thereforst, these who advanced it ought to be re senerated. Mr. CANNING explained. . . Mr. T. COURTENkY could not admit that the alterations by their Lordships merely related to the preamble. Ile hoped that the lieu. would cot dis. agree with the Lords' amendment, end that the mo tion ould not be persisted in. Mr. J. P. GRANT said, that 150,0001. bad been advanced, bona fide, to the Madras Government, by the house in question, as agents of the Nabob; and the PAM India Company mere the real opposers of the Bill. Mr. CANNING bsd looped that the case weeld ►ate gone before the Commissioners. 11. was ready to withdraw the motion, and to disagree with the Lords' amendments, taking the chance that the Lords weeld agree to the Bill as it originally went ■p fro■ that Hesse. Lord JOCELYN would persevere to his motion. Mr. S. BOURNE, said, if the preamble failed in the case of a private Bill, which the present was, the Bill fell to the ground. Mr. WARREN es plained. Mr. WYNN oat of opinion that the passing of the Bill weld establish a .Isuaerees precediot. Mr. LUgIINGTON thoenbt nothing could be OWe absurd then the Bill ',liberal the preamble.

The Irish Fees in Chancery Bill, was, after some observations on the part of Mr. lityrcuisioN and Mr. C. GRANT, read a third time, and rassed. The Report on the Irish Assessed Taus Bill ass broeght up, and a Bill ordered. The Eachesteer Bills' Bill and the Irish Treasury Bills' Bill went through the Committee.—Reports te-morrow. Oa the question for the third reading of the Smug. gling Prevention Bill, Mr. J. SMITH stated, that the liberty of the sub ject had been oftee invaded by Custom-hoew of ficers, though without any such intention on the pars of dovereaseat.—Tbe Bill was then read • third time and passed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved that the Lords' amendments on the Bank of Ireland Cash Payment Bill be taken into farther coosideration that day three months; and obtained leave to bring in a new Bill on the subject, which was reed • first sad second time, and ordered to be com mitted to-morrow. Sir W.DE CRESPIG NY withdrew his motion on the subject of Mr. Owen's plan till the nest Session. Mr. J. W. WARD rose to protest vault the ie. sertion of his owe ease and that of a Right Honour. able Friend of his (Mr. Stores Boerne) into the list of the Committee on Mr. Owen's plan. If such as b was conferred spots them from any supposed approbation of the plan Itself, he most declare that he sod his Right Hon. Friend were totally unde serving of it. Ile regarded the scheme itself as en tirely unworthy the consideration of the House. Here the Honourable Gentleman was called to order by Sir WILLIAM DE CRFSPIGNY, who thought it informal that the llonnerable Gentleman should enter into any discussion when the motion was withdrawn. Mr. J. SMITH regretted that the Honourable Gentleman hail spoken rather contemptuously of the plan : he would not enter into it now, but would merely say, that the Bother of it was a man of the greatest benignity and benevolence, and that he bad shown In the management of those soder his own charge, the practicability of some of his humane views. He had visited his establishment at New Lanark, end the regularity, the order, and the comfort that distin guished it, 'marled any thing he had ever seen, or almost any thing he had ever read of. The House would scarcely believe, thereat of a population 01 1100, in fourteen years there bad not been a single individual brought before a Court of Justice for a crime. The education began at three years of sr, and nobody who had not seen it would credit the progress which children of seven had made. He did not hesitate to say, that Mr. Owen had dens more for education than any man that ever lived. Mr. J. W. WARD folly allowed the humidly and beoevelence of Mr. Ogren, and only wished as not to be understood as subscribing to his plan. The other Orders of the Day were then dispowd of, and the hetet adjourned at Ono o'Clock. mei. OF 'rocks TIM Hank Nock per Cent.

BURDETT'S motion, which, if mongrels could breed, we should say was kubridows, like the parent ftom which it sprung. The Paper to which we allude assumes sometimes u popular esterior, in so fir as It often condemns the sreseless crithiset of Ministers. Bow, indeed, could it do otherwise, if it meant to preserve the reputation for possessing com mon tease ? Bet then it is popular only on the Bor. face—at heart it is aristocratic. Self•interest, net patriotism, is its guide. Willing to frustrate the de sign of the Worthy Berens'," that early la the neat Session the Mese take into consideration the state of the Risresentatiie of the People," Ike writer says, " The arguments by which the Memorable Baronet supported his motion contain .ssothiog Pell," though he does admit that " the manner in which the proposition is exhibited assumes a moderate tone, novel, and somewhat allering." All this is still of the Nixed kind, like the source ;roe which it springs. The fact is, that Ilse peragraph is the commentary of a Whig scholiast or annotator, who is jealous of the growing reputasion of the Baronet. What world he have of novelty io a question of Re. form? It is ennegh to say, t.at every measure of the Government partakes of the ausholesonie leaves which is sought to be removed by the worthy Baronet's motion. "Specific plans (says this writer) for ef fecting a Reform in Parliament, have been often pro. duced in the House, and as often rejected ;" end then adds " bat if a change in the mode of returniug Members be necessary," &c. if a change be neces sary I ! lu the words of a great dramatist one might exclaim, " Talk'st thou to me of ifs indeed !" Why, it is an Windt to common sense to ssk the qeestion. These consequential men, with their mighty weapon the pen, lay down thelaw as it were, and beeves, they are seldom or ever opposed, they conclude that %bat they have promulgated is univer sally to be right. Iliwakiog then of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, Sir R WILSON, &c. he proceeds :—" A Reform in Parliament seems to be considered by !beta as s panacea for every political wooed—a remedy of ell abuses." If these Gentlemon do so vinsider it, they have reason for so doing : since there is nothing WIC true or certain, that without that remedy be ap. plied, all other medicaments will have bet a ma. osentary effect. Like the application of some ano. d 1 ne, they may assuage the vieleoce of the angdish for an instant, but till means are taken to purify the body from the infection which causes the pain, it is nothing bet ignorance or self-iuterest which would 1 prescribe any ether course. Alteratives, Alteratives. Alteratives l _ . . .. ..... ..... _ It is Row twenty year. arum are hand which guides to engrave on the minds of the Public, that t►e young Baronet, who had then jest started into Senatorial life, had taken at once, as by Weldon, a right and propel stied in politics; that his precocious understanding would surprise, and be sore to make converts ; that although he had moon mists of prejudice to remove, and masses of ealf•inte rest to overcome, yet that his Hemline strength woald effect it all. He hes nothing to do bet always to come to the same point, and be will be sere to be joined by **creasing numbers. What a mind, then, meat so young a man possess, to stand, as it were, unmoved, amidst the taunts and sneers of old and corrupt Members of Pediment, who bad no dopbt of playing epos his modesty, as they bare epee that of many political tyros before, sad prevent him from urging his grand and laudable purpose ! And this they would have succeeded in, had he not been convinced of the troth of his pro positions, as much as of the purity of his Inten lions. If Heaven spare his life, he will be are us abate, to throw down the citadel of Corruption; for he proceeds like an engineer who has had the ground.wotk of his education Isid out on tree mathematical principles. He seems to say, Os ..y own centre I good unmoved, Fined awl .•abk as the Wine of the world." Go on then, Sir Frthons Buanyrr—go on then, Major CARTWRIOUT—whether together or separate (and it is a pity yes should not act in salon), in your hermit and laudable estleavears to obtain for your country what It might, indeed, be an grily said, it little deserves of you.--It will, nevertheless, be entitlel in the end to you when your work is finished. Never mind, then, yr worthies of our abused country, the perils taunts and Insolent contumelies of the Times, intended in the scoff that Reform is to " regulate our charitable institutions, cleanse our prisons, and pugs our mad bosses—obviate the delays, and lessen the Pumices, of our Cou►ts of Equity; it will diminish the amount of oar National Debt, dad remove the pressure of the lOUs." Why, no doubt it will do all that, and ten times more without comparing it to the ail-healing ef. frets of the " Cordial Balm of Gilead," the efii• cacy of which, ne doubt, the scurry sophisier has witnessed often, and to which we would beg I hi■ again to have recourse, es there appears to be still much ill-blood in his vein of scribbling.— We not only conceive that a Radical Ranoass will do what the Times makes a mockery of; but feel conviaced it will produce a thousand other benefits not coetemplaled at this moment. It will even pre. vent ten thousand a year again being iniquitously given ; and as avariciously, say impiously received, by any sea for going to see his father is well done by..!

Sr TISONJJ TURTON, in the Chair. Mr. CALVIN/7, is a short but esplanatory state. meat of the affairs of the Theatre, wished to impress upon the minds of the New Renters, that if tho pie positions which had been maturely made by theSelact Committee, namely, of giving up their Imagism for the lest her years, as well as their agreeing not to receive interest fer roar yeers to come, were set agreed to, he (Mr. Glue') for one, had bet little hopes but that the concern must immediately be rained. If the above plan was agreed to, the The sirs might be instantly lot, upon good security ; and if the person succeedei in the management, which there was no doubt, the dividends would be regularly paid at the time specified. Mr. Calcraft also stated, that the Select Committee, In the short space of three weeks, had accomplished a redaction of the deb t o f t 90,00j1. to under 49,0001. • subject, however, to the 1 coessent of the hood-hold :vs, which could not with propriety be asked till the New Renters had gives their annum to the Resolution proposed to them.— Ile likewise had the pleasure of absentia', that a most satisfactory offer bad been made for resting the Theatre.—[/leaf 1) Mr. ROBINS pointed out the necessity of meting to the above proposition. He observed, that as a New Realer be held more shares than any other per son; acrd he was confident, that if the New Realms did nut immediately corn, to a decision a;ron the sub ject, in less than a fottnlght mentions would poor in so fast, that in a very sheet space the theatre would be absolutely gutted. Ile bad authority for saying, that four of the New Renters, who held from fifty to slaty 5001. shares, were anzioss for Ibis rrea• sure to be carried into elf •ct. The necessity of this proceeding was so obvious, that he treated an una nimous vote would be the resin of the Mooting that day. If the New Renters soalJ only look et the Miser aids of the picture for a moment, they could not hesitate. The moncifieent taSscripsion of the Duke of Bedford's 10001. would be withdrawn, and In his cspecity of landlord, be might put in his claim for 25001. The other creditors would also instantly enforce their claims. Captain ROBINSON seconded the motion, as ON only means of saving the Theatre from immediate de. strewth's. Sir Titoism Tostom felt great delicacy, in his ii. Illation of Trustee, to ',commend the above propot.i. lion to the New Resters; sot in the character of a N. et Renter, he felt all its force, sod should rapport it. Mr. FALLOW 'MD, as a Trustee. coincided must heartily with the espresaioas of the Chairman. After some further conversatioa, the motion ass castled unanimously.
