2mpertal Paritamnit. MOUSE OF LORDS. MONDAY. DEC. NO. COTTON FACTORIES AMENDMENT RILL Earl GROSVENOR rose, on the Order of the Day for going into • Committee on this MIL He observed. that it went in a great measure to repeal the Act or last Sc. ion for regulating the employment of citildr.a in anon factories, and hie opinion was, that the Lords would do wisely. if they repealed the Bill altogether. The Noble Earl was persuaded dust the parents, who had the interest of their children at hew, could nut betake improvident contracts for them, and he really Mt that Parliament was taking too large a range when they interfered between the manufacturers and such persons. The Bishop of CHESTER said. It was his intention la•t lleyeion, had not indisposition occurred, to move a clause to prevent children behalf employed late en Saturday nights In case no opposition was offend, he Mould move towurtAuce such a clause at the third reading of the Bill then under discussion.— His reason for the intros uctson was this--if children continued working to • late Lour set Saturday night, they were either unable or unwilling to attend divine service on Sunday. and parents had no opportunity to make them appear at church.— At • time when they were laming 11111. fur the suppnesion of blasphemy and sedition, lw could nos sea how any of the Lords coukl be averse to a legislative provision which would hold out to thousand; of manufacturers on his diocese the uscans of observing a decent and moral deuwanour. . . Altet ; few olwervations frau lAled Holland and Earl Gtra• 'MIK the Ilothic went into • Committee on the Dill The Cuitows *Lie then read. agreed to, and the BiU ordered to be rcpinted to the Duthie. II::DITIOUS MEETINGS BELL. On the motion of Lionl Viscount littlinuuth, the llcnore went into a C.r.uitiit.ee on the Seditious Meetings Bill. Lord ELLESSIOROUGII objected to the punishment of twelve months' imprisonment, to which pvrsons were made liable who shall In prt. , ent at any meet ng without being eligi- Ohlvtu attend. There was an inconsistency in that provision, because its another part ul the Rill a person might be present. and if he departed within a planer of en hour alter the Sheriff or Al agi.tmc made proclamation for lino todepart, he was liable so no punishment w h wt.vcr. Tt.e It )it Cil A SCELLOR said, the persons last mentioned ►y the Noble Lord woo's!, in OW of riot, still be sultivet to the common law. 'l' t; clause was :speed to. Tile Eat! of 1..%.12,' Ih. itimix propowi to add to the clause, slitorti..g the iartor to two•citc tneet:ngs in cure:moo town*. the words" accoming to the custom of tin; place. The Earl of LI VIIII . OOI. laid. the ROI did not affect any nuvtinge in buildinAs or rooms. and there WAD nothing in it to pieta.► incetinga being called in parishca according to particular custom. The clause was ordered to stand part of the Bill. The Nlarquis of Lansdowne objected to the clause which provides that um persons shall be added to attend parish meetings unless they are resident inhatitants, or proprietors of freeholds pro.iming rind. per annum. The Noble Al.rquis urged the injustice and iiiipoiicy of excluding flan such outings pertuns having smolt freeholds. and moved to insert the words •• forty shillings." insttaul of filly pounds. The I.OIIU Cll AM:ELIA/It objected to the amendment. lie obsetved, that many 'arsons might be said to be inhabitants o a pan." who did not :toile there, but bud peoperty in it. The object of the clan C wadi to exclude all such persons.. unless they bad poise ty of/Aline value. Lord HOLLAND dep:ecateil the exclusion of persons having small est Ates In particular perishes. Nothing would add more to the th.satiait.xtion of the people than preventing men of forty shillin g s treetliau trout atieuthog iiansli meeting.. where their L;rsrest to a pro ; intimate extent would be it, g eat a. that of the wan who had tiny pounds Ir...ehohl. . . — Lord EHbEII:: t w i. drew Me attention of the House as the severity of the lea they Were about to enact. Supposing a man having a sioull tieeltuld in a jeirish, and nut a mitieut. obsti nately tnought tit to attend the meeting, without a correct kricisktlge of due Asst Pailitunent, would and Jury, if he was iadieted. rind him guilty C Laguna)? not. Such a man might go about bmtideling, and give the iiiitsish ate an opportunity • disperse the meeting; and in that view the clause was obieci tunable. The k:tut uf LIVEEPO'II. said, the question for the con sideration of the House was, whether any attempt should be made to get rid of there tumu ltuous meetings. becatuee if there was a nxessity to supp.ess them, the Bill must be madet:ffeetive. Lord IIOLLLA ND contended fur the right which, he said. try man had to meet and petition the King and Parliament. 'flit Bill would take away that right, although the Noble Lords yid it was to regulate the privilege. In a time of public ferment nothing could be more iniudicious than to separate the pour from the rich. It was impolicy to interfere with parish nieetinge.. inaking the distinction which his Noble Friend had deprecated. He observed the Noble Lords laugh. He knew the meaning of of it. They meant to say—there will be no parish meetiogs—we will suppress the whole. If it was to, and tie clauses in the Bill were nugetory, it was threatening the people with Mink Lora lioliand gave his negative to ttie clause. The amendment wits then put, negatived, and the clause oaltred to rand part of the Bill. Lord ERSKINE objected to the power given to magistrates to decide what constituted an illegal meeting. Ou the clause providing that non resident peesons, shall deprt after ptuclaination within a quarter of an hour, on peas of transportation. Lord ERSKINE moved to leave out the word " transpor tation." and to insert 6' guilty of a misdemeanotiv." Lord k:LLEN BOROUG I I supported the amendment.— Lukas the cme was strong. no a ury could find a verdict of guilty, and if they did, there must naturally be a reluctance to send the defendant to Botany Bay. The 1.0 UCft A N C It censidered the clause neesesary as it stood for the safety of the country. Lord HOLLAND made no doubt, from what lie had heard, that the people were destined to bear the (pentium of the chime If a man lingered at a meeting slier pioetaination to depart, he was to be treated eau (Jon. The &kr:ad:neat wauf neptived, and the clause stood part of the Bill. After eonuder.ible disctu,ion the Bill passed through the Committee, and uab ordered to &,e uplifted. Adjourned. TUESDAY, DEC. 2! Mr. Brogden and other Nlemiers from the COMITIOIIB, brought up the Xlistlemegnours Bill wit'l An, atiamnts. On the motion of the LOH C I lANCIELLOR, the Amend ments were taken into wn,itlermion. Lord 1101.1.ANI) gave hisrwrnt to the Amendments, wl.ich went to extend the provi,iu.is oi the Rill to Irannd, at the suunt;time he aduntteu thi.t the Bill would greatly impruve the existing law TheA.ruentlments were tweed to. tiEDITMUS KIEL• IINGS BILL. Lori LIVE:IIPM. on the third reati.ng of this Bill, moved gme:.l verbal amt itdments. which were ai.:ree.. to. ..... —.... . . Luca LIVERPOOL then adverted w two objections, taken 'by a Noble Baron. OM related to the difficulty magistrates 'would find in endeavouring to arrest individuals who might Johns to depart after proclamation. In case of obstruction the &tieghtunte wet consider the meeting illegal, and proceed to 14 .4 k, i t k . „ .• 'l e: \ • k e ‘ 44 .04 4 , •• • TIII: NATIONAT.. REGISTER. DE e' i . _ . dissolve it. In order to teem doubt with respe ct to what Nally was obstruction, the Noble Earl proposed to insert the word '• forcible," which would doily an intentional obstruction. Atter it few words from Lord Erskine, the Amendment was agreed to. Lord ELLENBOROUGII moved a clause, to allow miter trate* to permit meetings to be held within less than six days after notice given of such meeting. The motion was negatived. Other Amendments being *weed te, the Bill was read a third time. On the question....“ 1. it your Lordship% pleasure this Bill do past I."— Lonl ERSK [NE. in a speech of considerable length. opposed the principle of the Bill, and deprecated the policy pursued by Minister,. He observed that they were so bound up in the belief of the excellence of their measures, dust there war no thoroughfare for their understanding. Earl DARNLEY rose to express his oppwition. not only to the Bill before the House. but the Libel Rill. He deprecated turbulent meetings and itinerant demagogues going about to corrupt the minds of starving manufacturers but die rigeurous nietutures of Government had driven the people to madness and d. Meetings with arms were never thought of laJte the unfortunate transactions at Manchester. Lord ELLENBMIOUGH reviewed with eloquence the pre sent state of the Country, and reomtmended a conciliatory spirit towards the people. Laws would be no more than paper, if adverse to the wishes and interests of the comiuunity. lie supported the Nil, considering it the heist 11/C141.11 of protectiag free %leetings•and our Constitution, which had raised men in this country higher than huiuu nature had ever been raised in any country under Heaven.
