To these passages the Noble Marquis said that it was his inteation to call the attention of their Lordships. He should mention Wednesday, if that were not deemed an inconvenient day : and on that occasion also he would move for such additional information as he thought necessary ; adding, that he should feel it his duty to animadvert upon the general aspect of the transaction referred to—upon its immediate results and probable conse quences. Earl GREY said, that another transaction referred to in the Papers on the table, appeared to him to re quire further explanation from his Majesty's Govern ment : he meant with respect to Genoa, and he would take an opportunity of moving for such in formation on Wednesday, if there should be time enough to enter upon the subject after the motion of his Noble Friend (Lord Wellesley) should he disposed of. The Earl of LIVERPOOL expressed his readi ness, as he had communicated to the Noble Earl, to produce any information which he was capable of .affording, consistently with his view of public duty ; and he was equally ready to comply with the wishes of the Noble Marquis if, u a matter of convenience, he would iofortn him (Lord L.) what information or Papers he required. Marquis WELLESLEY said, that he had already -communicated to the Noble Earl the Papers which he at present had in view ; and if any further should oc cur to him before Wednesday, he would let the Noble Earl know it. , Marquis DOUQ LAS requested to know from the Noble Karl, whether he had any thing farther to lay before the House with respect to the.commenlcations 4 r/40‘44V os.. , Rentinct with certain Julien Officers, itikd also With - regard to certain cessrairricligistriii in the North of Italy ? The Earl of LI YERP9i)Lrepiied, that he had al ready laid on the table all the Papers with respect to Italy, of which the Pricne Regent ordered the prod uc tion ; bat it was competent to the Noble Lord to move for any farther information he desired.

After he withdrew, the tinfe Was further extended, upon the motion of Mr. W ROT I ESLEY, till the 11th of May.

Mr. ROBINSON postponed the Committee on the Slave Trade Abolition Act, from to-morrow until Monday next. The False Measures Bill was read a third time and passed, as were also the Liberty of the Subject, and the Poor and High. way Return Bills. Mr. BENNaTT moved that the Committee appointed to en quire into the state of the King's Bench, Marahalsen, and Fleet Primus, should have power to examine into the new Prison building in the city, of London for the reception of Debtors.— Ordered. M!. LATHROP MURRAY, Sir S. ROMILLY had lately presented a Petition from this gentleman, and was informed by the Secre tary of State that his case, was under consideration. He had been since informed that the Secretary did not think it a proper case to recommend the mitiga tion of the sentence. The Petitioner was a total Istranger to him, but as he had applied to him to pre ' sent his Petition, he conceived it his duty to do ins. I He did not mean to throw the slightest censure on the Learned Judge who tried him, or against the' Noble Lord (Lord Sidmouth) who had afterwards taken this case into consideration. Whatever he might :think of the criminal laws of this coun.. try as they stood in the statute book, .the eser cise of those laws was generally in the , aPirit of mercy and moderation. This case, however, ap peared to be one of peculiar severity. The Petitioner had served as an officer in all the campaigns in the Pe ninsula, under the Duke of Wellington. Shortly after his return, a •charge was brought against him for bigamy, not by any relation of either of the wives, but by a total stranger. The facts of the case were staled in the Petition as follows :—The Petitioner In the year 1797, when he nits with his regiment in Ire land, had been entrapped into a marriage with a wo man nearly double his age, he being then only 18 :yore of age. This marriage was performed by a Dissenting Minister in a privete room, without any licence or hens, or any of thkceremonies of the ChUrch of England. He himself was a member of the Church of 'England, and had been educated at the Universiry.of: Cambridge. The second marriage that was alleged to have taken place,was in the year 1801. This mar-. &ge t less,Payer, was not proved by any one pre-.. sent at,it, but only by a register and by a witaess in prove that he had admitted it. He had utiderstorid from his Counsel, that the Judge had reserved two points for further consideration : the first wish respect to the validity of the former marriage, and the se cond as to the proof of the second marriage. Supposing the points of law to be against him, still it appeared to him that this was a case of great severity. The Petitioner stated that he had the opinions of, two eminent civilians, that the marriage in Ireland, wits not valid. At ull events this art of bigamy, if 'such it was, took place about 14 ye ar s a g o , and,tlins i coins plaint came from no relation of the second wife's, . but from a total stranger. There was an affidavit from the second wife, declariug, that she h ad beets previously informed o f a ll th e circumstances t at gal . first marriage. This ci r c u msta n c e d e p r i ve d lb* cable I'. ' . , of the greatest part of its aggravation, as the moat /4 aggravating part o f the o ff ence o f bi gam y, w as th e i misery and ruin it occasioned to •the seenttentife.--s• The punishment was peculiarly severe when it fell : upotx a person of fortune, family; and good educa tion, for it appeared the Petitioner was educated -at • Cambridge, and had estates in Shropshire. Was he .l a , to be severely punished for this offence nil' the 5ug....„. 4. gooks,' of immoral conduct in other instances? No. 2 . thing could be more illegal or unjust. The PeAtjellir, denies that any cha:ge can be truly made ajainat hilp* . , .., and declares his anxiety for suchno enquiry into hip i conduct as will ascertain the t ru th. Why no t s n a k e ' such au enquiry before this sentence is'ettecuted ? lie . i? (Sir S. R.) would wish to h a v e th e R ecor d er ' s R epor t . to the Secretary of State, hut should not press i . 1 Motion on the subject. He besought the House a( ` . least to make some enquiries into the fact. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said- that it wils . referred to him and his ilbn. and Learned Friend (the Attorney-General), to give their opinion whether the conviction was legal or not. They had direfully examined all the Irish Acts, and were clearly of °pi.; ..:' nion that the first marriage was legal. As to the opinions of two Learned Ci v ili ans t o th e contrary, ~ . he had not seen those opinions, and he itred thatethii ..', 6.7 was a mere assertion of th e P e titi o i. The pilot';:: of the second m a rriage also appeared to theM cont. ; :::: 4 plete. In actions a crim. con. .there were Ariany ',: l cases, where it had not been considerecVnecesse r'y'to" * . ° have witnesses that were actually present /Oho ; eaar- . riage. He did not consider that the chargellilefrici' brought by a.stranger should di m i n ish th e 0015 . h. .• 4 ment. Bigamy was a profanation of a 'sacred core- •" t moray, a crime against society and .morals, as welt '• as an injury to the female that eas•porstiaded into IS?' marriage that the law did not recognise.- HA, there=* ° fore, saw no reason for the House interfering with the discretion necessa rily vested ithestge_yrtsp, : tried the case. , e _.; . t .

Bided, how would they deal with au aggravated ' case? In this instance, the Petitioner, who oak a . Gentleman by education and profession, was,tteateer* like a common felon, and had the severest.punisk. ment inflicted that it was possible to pronounce. ~*." Mr. H. ADDINGTON said, that the ease' had been most maturely' and impartially considered bst the Noble Secretary of Stele (Lord Sidavouth). Ti.i' . law part of the case was submitted to the law Oificer, . and the merits of the case referred to the respectable Judge who tried it. . ~ . Sir SAMUEL.
