Lard CASTL7IIIIIIIIII said, he thought this WAS the first time that a Member of that House was re ferred to for information with respect to the proceed ings that were intended to be adopted by the other. Lord Joan Rustinu. gave notice that he would, early in the next Session, move for leave to bring in a Hill fur the abolition of the punishment of trans portation in eases of libel. INCOME OF THE DUKE OP YORK.—Mr. 111 me moved, that there be laid before the House a return of the whole of the Income received by his Royal Highness the Duke of Teri, arising -from his l'i►il sad Military employmehts, sad the other sources of income, since the year 11 4 00. He moved this, on the ground t►at similar returns had been made fur all the other members of the' Royal Family, and he was sure there would be no objection. Lord CasTuranaeu objected to the motion, as he en tirely disapproved of the motives which alone could originate such a motion. Mr. Huss spurned the ituputation of unworthy mo tives. He repeated, that lie moved for returns with r. poet to the Duke of York, such as had been furnished I%:th respect to every other member of the Royal Family. Mr. Husamente thought there was no ground stated hr the maim All the grants which had been made t . the Duke of York, were contained in different Acts of Parliament, and if the Hon. Member would take the tr hie to look over these Acts, he would there obtain the information which he sought. Mr. N. CALVICRT thought that the motion was very proper in case that the Duke of York came before the Howie as a claimant; but otherwise he did not think it oughi to be pressed. Mr. firms said the motion had reference to an ul terior object, which he could not propose to the House idiom the information he now sought. The House was about to proceed to a division, when thr lion. Member withdrew his motion. oRANTHAM ELECTION PETITION. —The Sr EARIR took that opportunity to inform the House, that agreeably to its orders, one of the Serjeaot's Mes b e lien had been dispatched from town, to take into woody Sir W. Manners, Mr. Hugh Manners, and .Ih , cander Jarvis, and that he had returned and was ha readiness to attend at the bar, and state the result of his mission. Wright, the Messenger, was then called to the bar, and stated, that he had yesterday set out, in pursuance of the order of the House, to the residence of Sir Wm. Manners, and Mr. Hugh Manners, at Buckminster ; and that haring seen a person who stated himself to he the steward of Sir William Manners, he, in answer t., his (Wright's) questions, stated, that neither Sir W. Manners nor Mr. Hugh Manners were at home: that the former rode out that morning, bat whither he did nut know. He (Wright) then showed to the steward the warrant of the Speaker, and asked him to write duun the answer which he had just given, which he immediately agreed to do. lie (Wright) then asked about Alesaaskr Jarvis, but the steward referred him to a public-heuse at a little distance, where he made in quiries, hat could get no information about him. Then Messenger then withdrew. 'lwo affidavits were then read, one from the steward, and the second from another person residing in Burk nalostar, to show that Sir William bloopers was nut to he found. Sir ROBINT Manux said, that as due notice of at tendasee bad bees formally served on Sir William ilanisera, and as he had not come, he was guilty of a gross violation of the authority of the House. He should therefore move, that an bumble Address be presented to his Majesty, praying that he would he graciously pleased to issue a proclamation, offering a reward fur the apprehension of Sir Wm. Manners and Armstrong Jarvis. The Sesame* observed, that the regular mode would be to submit a Resolution in the first instance, shoe lag that Sir Wm. Manners had disobeyed the order of the House, and then to more the Address. The following Resolutions were then put and agreed is unanimously : Resolved, That it to Ibis House, that Sir William Banners ties to avoid being taken Into custody loy as order of the Hesse. Resolved, That as humble Address be promoted to his Majesty. preying NM he weeld be graciously pleased to Issas a proclamation, awing a reward for the apprehension of Sir Witham Manages. Similar Resolutions were agreed to in the case of Armstrong Jarvis. General Hare briely called the attention of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to a measure which had hems proposed is the course of the last Session, re 'reds( Irish Stills, and took occasion to advert to an improved engine fist the rectifying of spirits. Cnamcsuan of the Excsteuena said. he In tended to give seeks of a motion which would ens. lnice the edbjeet gewftlly. AUDIT OFFICE AT LISBON.—Mr. BEPIXIT cemented, I. the coarse of a few observations, on the manner in which the Audit °See was conducted, par. Similarly that ►reach of it established at Lisbon. In his opinion. no advantage whatever bad resulted from that office, and he could not but complain that the evidence respecting it was suppressed. After shortly adverting to the Finance Committee, she Hon. Member moved, that there be laid before the Some encosess of all soonie* paid for auditing the Peninsular Ramat*, with an account of the number at accounts audited. The CaaIICILLOR of the 1320111QU II differed en tirely frees the lies. *MINK for, in his opinion, very great advents(' bad scented to the public interest from the Mows of like different persons connected with the Audit Oise. The seal and industry of the Ciimnsitses was set to be empassed. 11r. Hsu><sw was particularly anxious that the *sass of the Ovislooso should he produced. because he how they wetU dleeka• s scene of squabbles and for bath at the Ake in White ilia sod which were is themselves most Aoramial, and sight to be put an end to as nos as It wile ok duty at the Right Hen, the of the gashaleor, as bowleg bees the ig=fai Mei hurley, to oolosit ski boWooft to the it • bemotot. MI& US.. Illoodsiesa I s hould still persist in withholding it, he (Mr. Rennet) should feel it his duty to move for it formally. The CHAN EL Loa of the Excnaouta denied that he was the official organ of the Committee. 'I he motion uas then agreed to, and Mr. BENNIT eXiirt.4sed his intention making a motion on the subject of the evidence on Wednesday. Lord 1101:14TCHARLAS wished to knew from the j Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if it was i his intention that the Bill proposed in the course of ' the last Session for establishing a Police regulation to prevent illicit distillation in Ireland, should have el feet, or if he meant to propose another measure on the • subject ? CHAN 4 F.L1.011 of the EXCHZ4.:EI Said, that no delay Should take plane in realizing the object adverted to by the \oble Lord. ALIEN BILL.—Lord Cs/tun:saws moved the order of the day for the second reading of this Bill. Mr. BanNaL opposed the Bill, and contended, that before lie could bring himself to accede to it, he should desire to see a strong case made out. The Bill against Aliens had in the first instance originated from the machinations of foreigners. It was with that view that the 33i1 of the late Kin, hail been enacted. But no machinations now existed to render such a Bill ne• cessary, and it was calculated to oppress and injure numerous individuals who had claims en our protec tion. It was contrary to the enlighteutd principk of the age, and altogether at variance with that liberality which induced this country to grant an asylum to the fugitives who sought it upon the revocation of the edict of Nants. With this decided conviction upon his mind, he should now move, as an amendment, that the Bill be read this day six months. Lord A. HAMILTON supported the amendment, and wished to know from the Noble Lord, if he intended this Bill as the first of a series of permanent measures against Aliens? In his opinion, the Bill was equally unnecessary and unjust. It would he as much wanted two years hence as at present, for all the occasion there was fur it at this period, when it did not appear that any projects or machinations existed in foreign States, to injure the rights or independence of the country. _ _ COI: DAVIRII followed on the same side, and main- tained that the Bill was hostile to every principle of policy and justice. Mr. J. W. WARD spoke against the Bill, and said, that had it not been for the opposition already gipti. it might become a permanent, instead of a tempos measure. At the time this Hill was first cellt.d for, alatins of all descriptions were raised respecting the machinations and designs of French exiles, Jacobins, Bonapartist', and all those who were represented as intending to come over and disseminate their doctrines in this country. Bat was this in reality a solid or substantial reason fur the Bill i Certainly nut. Shortly after the second restoration of the King of France, he recalled most of th•rse very exiles against wbotn the 11111 professed to operate. He should therefore be glad to know whether this Kill was now to set against our own subjects or against foreigners. It was quite clear that It could have but eery little effect against French Jacobins, for they were not disposed to row here. Their thinner of action was the Chamber of Deputies or the Electoral Colleges. Indeed, a cargo of Jacobins would find but a very bad market in England.--(A laugh.)—He was quite sure that a cargo of hardware, or of any other commodity, would be a more advan tageous importation.—(A laugh).—There could he no competitius between French sad Engliah Jacobins in this country, the English Jacobus. being so raga perior in spirit, in vigour, and true English sniff.— (A laugh.)—if, for instance, any adventuress foreign Jacobins should come to this country and offer their services to the malcontents in England, such a tender would be rejected with scorn. Should ■ band of fo reign Jacobins offer to assist in dethroning the King, subverting the Constitution, and destroying the reli gion of the country, the English Jacobins would say, Well, gentlemen, we are much obliged to you for your kind proposal, but we would rather not agree to it, because your participation in our cause would be a disgrace to helium reason." The Hon. Uentlemsa then took a retrospective view of several plots and conspiracies in this country, for the purpose of skew ing that they had sot been excited by foreign agents or emissaries. Were they, be would ask, Jacobias or Bonapartist*, who had planned and peojoeted the Cato-street conspiracy. He would not coesent to give any further powers of this nature to Ministers, particu larly as they had not condescesdad to explain to the House upon what grounds they sow found it necessary to demand them. The people of Ragland had a na tural avers' to foreigners, and he thought that of itself a sufficient security against the designs of foreign ers. He considered this as a paltry Hill, which was ouly calculated to oppress the weak mad the isoffensive, while those of a different character wash always take care not to tome within the sphere of its operatics, because they amid meet with no encouragement in England. The lion. Member se down meat lest vllkers.- The Loan MATOIt sow rose to eousplain of a atiere presentation respecting t►e sailing in of 'military aid oa a recent occasion in the city. The SIVA AIR said, he should be glad to ask the Hon. Member, what connection be thought the cellist of military aid had with the Alien 8i11.—(4 laugh.) The LOAD M•Toa said, that hi■ only object in rising was to vindicate himself from misrepresentation. load Mr. MATIlitraST rose, amidst . cries of itisettiou. sad offered sore remarks. tending to preys theakeele disaffected la England had always bees ready te Ike.

This feet ides evideat, from several of then basing, during the early part of the French revolution, atteuded at the Bar of the National Cooventiou, in order to receive hp &tractions.

Payola itrerved ea aimed doles, *Abbe in his opinion, demanded reviiiun. Tim whole prin ciple of the Bill was radically wrong. The duties which it went to impose ought, fur the greater part, to have ceased at the expiration of the twenty years after the I•uiun. Instead, therefore, of passing the Bill in its present state, he would propose that it should enact (fitly a part of the ditties now existing. He would also propose alterations in the schedule ap pended to the Act. He concluded with moving, after the word " that," in the preamble, instead of the words " the following duties," the words, " part of the duties," should be substituted. He alio moved as an amendment, that these duties should altogether cease at the end of the year 1839. The CHANCELLOR of the EICHEIVER opposed the amendments, and said, that the fact of these duties having been originally imposed for twenty years seemed I to point nut the propriety of allowing an equally long period for remitting them to expire. Mr. LITTLETON thought that the duties on earthen ware and pottery goods ought not to be continued. His constititents bad sent up a petition against these du• ties, which he had not yet received, but lie was de sired to say, that they felt these duties a great hardship, as it excluded their manufacture from the Irish markets. Mr. W. P . said, that the principle of a free trade was the wily conspenutiun which the Irish people weer ted to expect from the Union. Sir U. HILL supported the Bill, which, in his opi nion, was constructed upon the most liberal principles. Mr. WILMOT supported the amendment. Ho ap pealed to the Right Hon. Gentleman, whether it was not worth his consideration to see if the duties on pot tery ought not to be discontinued. Mts.; some farther observations from the CHANCiIr- LOR of the EXCIIEQVIII. Sir If. Pan s sit. said, be would take the sense of the House upon this Bill on a future stage of is. After a few observations from Mr. (iLLosvoler, the question was put on the amendments, and they were negatived. I fhe Houle resumed, the Report was brought up, the amendments were agreed to, and the Bill was or dered to he read a third time on Monday. On the suggestion of Sir H. PARNELL, the third reading of the Seisare of Arms Bill was put off to Monday. The House resolved itself into ■ Committee of Sup ply o►► the Malt Duties Art, when The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved a reso lution for laying a duty of 2s. a bushel on malt in tended to be brewed into beer in Scotland, mod made from a particular species of grain ; also a da;y of 2s. Bd. a bushel on malt, made from barley and certain other kinds of grain. He al.o Inured, that the coun tervailing duties on spirits imported from Ireland into (heat Britain, do cease and determine. These resolu tions were agreed to, and the report was ordered to be received to-►►►orrow (this day). _ _ The House, in a Committee on the Scotch Fisheries Art, agreed to a Resolution fur taking off she existing bounties on Cod Fish imported into Scotiaad, and granting others in lieu thereof.—The Report to be re ceived to-morrow. INTENDED MONARCHY IN SOUTH AMERICA. Mr. Lventwoeurs gave nodes, that, on Tuesday next, he should move fur copies of all communications made to his Majesty'. Ministers, relative to the late negotiations carried on by the French Government, for the establishment of a Monarchy in South America. EMPLOYMENT OF MILITARY IN THE CITY. The Loan Alston of LONDON said, he felt it see's sary to make some observations on a subject in which I he was himself personally concerned, in reply to what had fallen from an Honourable Gentleman on a former night, who charged him with having brought soldiers into the city, on the day when the Common Hall was assembled at Guildhall, with a view of overawing the Livery. The Honourable Gentleman was greatly mis taken if he supposed that there was any such intention on his part. Nothing could be further from his in tention than that of interfering with the deliberations of the Livery ; so far from it, he wished to protect the Livery; and his object was to preserve the peace of the city while they were deliberating. When he re collected that, in the mayoralty of Alderman Wood. a riotous mob spread terror throughout the city, and broke Into and plundered house., he felt that it was I absolutely necessary to guard against such outrages in future, and to give sufficient protection to the peace able inhabitants; particularly so when vinlent speeches were uttered at Public Meetings ; and when the most 1 seditious placards were stuck up on the walls of the Metropolis. It was his duty under such circumstances, to guard against any mischief that might ensue; and he would assure those Gentlemen who thought It to *ensure his conduct, that he was determined, so long as he continued in the office he now held, be would always call in such a force as he slisuald conceive to be necessary for protecting the peace of the city. '1 his was his Arm determination. IRISH SPIRITS.—The CHANOZLLOR of the Ex k mews, brosegist ins Bill to repeal so much of the Act of the late King, as prohibits the inaportetiss of Spirits host Ireland into Great Britain. Read a lest. and ordered to be read a second time to-morrow (this day). The other Orders of the Day being disposed of, tint Hones at Moe o'clock adjourned. air Ohs The extreme press of matter yesterday, having com pelled us to omit the able speech of Mr. Ltxtrusn„ at tie Bar of the Lords, we sow present a sketch of it in a more extended form than we could otherwise bat& previously gives.
