Mr. STEVENS Ws heard, in conclusion of his at gument, and Mr. ADAM, for the Respondent, is the Appeal, LLOYD ar. . GRADY ; after which, Mr. MANSFIELD was heard in reply. The LORD CHANCELLOR then adjourned the fur cher. hearing to a future day. His Lordship also adjourned the House during pleasure, and withdrew ; Lord A tvaNr, EY present ly entered the - House with his full-bottomed wig ; and afterwards acquainted their Lordships, that the Notate and Learned Lord, .whose proper office it was to sit upon the Woolsack, had been obliged to retire, owing to indisposition, and that he had un dertaken to fill his seat in his absence. His Lord ship proceeded to the Woolsack. The Kensington, Brentford, an ti Coln chrook R oad Bill, and the Eieter and Biddeford Road Bill, v.:2re read a second time, and committed for Monday next. MUTINY BILL. On the Motion Of Lord HOBART, for the going into a Committee on the Mutilly Bill, the same was read, and the House resolved itself into a Committee accordingly, Lord WALSINGILAM in the Chair. Lord ELLENBOROUGiimored several verbal amendments, and the insertion of two or more new clauses. After having gone,through the Bill, Lord %VAL SI NGH4M reported,. that the Committee had gone through the same, and made several amendments., The Report was ordered to be taken into cOnsi &ration on Monday. Jactsori's Estate Bill was read a second time, and committed for to-morrow fortnight. rritti MINTO rose to remind the House that, pteviotii to the late recess, he had given notice of his Intention on an early day after the House should meet again, to bring forward a Motion for Papers, which would oblige Ministers to give the Horse some information, as to what had passed b'etsteen his Majesty and the French Government relative to Switzerland. He had waited hitherto in expetcht tion that some new lights would be thrown on. the subjed ; but what had passed within these few days, was of So truly important a nature, that it ought to absorb all other considerations: Their Lc‘rdships could not bait perceive, that they were on the verge of a new war ; it was, I v some tonschltion to be conscious that it was a calamity ut upon us, net if sought for by us ;it originated, it should take place, in the insatiable ambition and itripiacabie hatred lodged in the mind of the First Consul of the Ftench Republic. On such an occasion, it was not fitting to look retrospedively, or to entertain any discussion either . with regard to censure or inquisi tion as to what was past. It was a moment to cri tical, that every man ought to throw aside all his icalousies, and to unite hand and heart in support of the common cause. It was not enough to de pend upon the tried virtue of the people—lie meant their spit it, their courage, and their firmness ; but new virtues mutt be resorted to—the virtue of perse verance, and of patiently enduring every difficulty during the arduous progress of a conflid in which we were likely to he engaged, not merely in order to preserve the honour of - his Majesty's Crown, but td secure the charaFter, the interests, and, if it must be so, the existence of the coultry. At such a mo ment, their Lordships would hot wonder at his abandoning his intention of making any Motion similar to Oat to which he had alluded. Instead of embarrassing Ministers, or calling off their at tention from the important national business in which they were at this time engaged, it was the duty of every man, who felt as a British subjed ought to feel at such a crisis, to give their mea sures his anxious support, and to assist them to the utmost of his power. BILL TO PREVENT VEXATIOUS ARRESTS. The Order of the Day for the Second Reuling of this Bill was read, when Lord RAWDON ( Earl of Moira) rose, and assigned his reasons for thinking it necessary for him, at that moment, to detail at length the cvuunds on which he had originally rested the several clauses of his Bill. Noble and Learned Lords, who (roils their official and professional situations in the courts of law, must be infinitely more competent to deci.le upon the prafticability of any legislative regula tions upon the subjea than he could pretend to he, had done him the honour to read the attentively, and had favoured him with their opinions respeain7 it ; as he found that they objeded to some parts of it, he certainly should not at all persist in pertina ciously pressing those parts upon the House, but was always ready to bow with deference to superior knowledge and superior anthurity. He would for the present, very shortly touch, upon the several Clauses. To the first, that for obliging the Cre ditor to pay for the sustenance and support of the Debtor while in prison upon mesne process, he found there were ohjeetions, resulting from the idea of the additional hardship it would impose upon the Creditor, who might have been imposed upon by a fraudulent Debtor ; that Clause might, how ever, be withdrawn in the Committee, if it could not be so modified as to remove the obje,llions to which it was at present deemed liable. To the nest Clause, that which increased the ground of arrest from a debt of 101. as it stood now by the Aa of George the Second to 201. (which according to a comparative consideration of the difference of value of money at that time and at this, might be deemed a reasonable altetati he had the satis 7 faiaion to learn, that there was no sort of' obje9ion, and that being the case, the.necessity for insisting on the first clause was, in a great measure, dene away. To another clause, that empowering a man ar rested to prevent being kept in custody, by allow ing him to deposit the amount of the debt for which he was wrested, and a suna equal in amount to de. s~ ~~s a GODWIN', CHAUCER..
