The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER it was but justice to admit that the Here.

The amount of the repeal on the English and Irish Malt Tax would be little leas them 1,400,0001.; sad to meet this sum the saving la pay - talf the Five per Ceuta, would be the mast pro tau to repeal; but, at all events, be did set agree . the policy of a gradual repeal : for the salt trade would be as much stagnated pad eeatraeted partial as by a total repeal.—(Hear. hear.) Hun. Member had compared it to a Poll T. deeming. for the sake of argument (though he by Poi mesas admitted die taw) that the poor etas paid as mach as the rich man, the amount stated by th. Hoe.' Member was greatly exaggerated. If each person su much as 25.. a year, the tax would prolate nut. this. 14 *Misses a-year. lie (the Chancellors, Exakegoet) believed It might ausewat to about Su ..sad per annum, bat certainly not any more. The Hatoarable Member bad referred to Mr. Hark?.

The iitsuostrable I also referred t 4 the tinie. of •e** le -.4 that the tax was repealed. to promote au Excise same of Sir K. Walpole. Why them had sot Sir Rebate Walpole. on the revival of the tax. placed it • Excise managesseat ? It was sot brought so .. . __ the Excise until surly 60 years afterwards.

Me. BlitlitTON was almost inaudible In the gal. As well as we could collect be said that the eneti e of the Salt Tax would be a great injus ti the cowry ; sad called epos the tossup gratlemen to stand forward aad prevent such an amount of expenditure. Sir 1. COFFIN (aa we understood) supported the motion. and deprecated the imposition of a tax which ' home we heavily on the poor classes. r. PHILLIMORE concurred in opinion with the MOW, that the tax pressed heavily upon the lower orders, and caused considrable injury to the Fisheries. Is 1819 be (the Doctor) had submitted to the Hooves moieties upon the Tohject, to which the ;loose did not agree. Had that resolution hires ta ented to by the Hots-, be had no doubt the tax lid, ear this, have been abolished. He preferred a to a gradual repeal ; bet the present question was, the repeal could take place. As the House had leveed to maintain the Sinking Fund, be could not fur the repaid at present. He thought it would more 'thimble to abstain a little, and he con& ly trusted that the abolition would not be al -low year. Fur the reason he had given he dd nut support the motion of the Honourable Mem , bat be declared himself an enemy to the principle the tax. CIIRMSN. Mr. Jour SMITH, General OAS. INC, Sir F. M.

The Marquess of LONDONDERRY professed it would afford him great satisfaction to say, bad arrived at the period when, consistent with discharge of their public duty, his Majesty's meters coold recommend the repeal of the !isleDoty ; . a compliance with the motion. he said would lay prostrate the credit of the country. It Gentlemen were einrere.in the opinions they ripened on Fliday night, with reference to the Sinking Fond, they would • become allies of the common enemy, whose oh was to get a repeal of all taxes. if the Salt to was repealed. the Honourable Member would come forward with Ms Leather Tax.—(Hear.) — The Noble Marquess then adverted to the retrench smote made by the Uovernmeat. and the proopect of still greater savings. If. upon an investigation. a surplus remaixed. thee he would allow the House td discuss the propriety of repealing the tax. If public faith woad allow the repeal dee enmities would be rid to the sleet. Sr T. LET BRIDGE considered it his duty to speak plainly to Wasters.

With respect to the NoldirMarqwess. let Gentlemen look to his dexterity in be ling the house in an unwary moment into the Lion on the occasion of the motion of the sie. Member (Lord Althorpe).

This was a spe cimen of his Lordship's Parliamentary Meths, sold he intreated the House to force the Noble Marquess to pet Isis good intention of reduciog Talcs, if he was so dis posed, into effect. Mr. PRIM spoke at some length against the motion, and conjured the Donee to couslder this question m in volving their character and consistency. Mr. MARERLY sssnred the Honer, that the moist' of the tax in question might be saved in the collection of the Revenue. Mr. CALCHAFT bride replied.
