Mr. Alderman BRIDGES presented a petition from the City of Loudon Coal Gas Company, egainst the Bill before the House tor the establiAm'ent of an Oil Gas Company. Mr. S. WHITBREAD moved, that the Bill before the House for the incorporation of the 0:1 Gas Company should be read a see end time. Mr. P. MOORE moved, as an amendment, " that the Bill thresh!, be read this day six nionthn" The House was about to divide, when a Member, whose name v e could not learu, observed, that the House was going to divide Without any information on the question before it. 'dr. A. ELLIS thought it would be extremely useful if the House was put in possession of a little information upon the ques tion before it. Hon. Members opposed the Bill for the incorpora tion of the Oil Gas Company, because they happened to bc eor pectinl with the Coal Gas Company, or with coal mines. The Bill Wieuld leave his strenuous support. . Alderman BRIDGES opposed the Bill. It was an at tempt to interfere with the interests of the Coal Gas Cowpony, et ich tied already obtained the protection of Parliament, and winch had given very general satisfaction. Great advantages were held out from the eetablishment of the Oil Gas Company, but lie kite not anticipate that the public could derive any from it. The Coal has Company were empowered to supply oil gam and could red would supply it, if it was found to be more convenient and ad vantageous to the public than coal gas. Ile contended, therefore, that the esteblishnient of a new Company was altogether unneces. sery, and that laying a second set of gas pipes through the streets would be extremely dangerous, as it was to be feared that explo. motes would be by no means uncommon. The Oil Gas Company bad been making unsuccessful attempts in the country towns, aril now endeavoured to make an establishment in London. lie called upon the justice and good sense of the Hoare, therefore, to throw oat the Bill. Mr. GRENFELL hoped the justice and good sense of the 1 - 1. use would actuate them not to throw out the Bill, without bet ter consideration. He knew nothing about the Oil Gas Company, nor had he any connection with it ; but he was a consumer of gas, aed, us a consumer, he confessed he preferred having two Com panes to basins only one. Upon this principle he should vote for t'.e second reading ot' the Bill. Mr. D. GILBERT trusted the House would not decide upon the Bill, after the contradictory statements which had been made. It was no argument to say that the Coal Gas Company was incor p,:ated by Act of Parliament. Parliament had given privileges, bat not monopoly. (Hear, hear.) When the two companies were erlablished, the public would have an opportunity of judging of meir comparnthe merits. The public was the true judge, acd snould determine which was preferable. Mr. P. MOORE said, that when he moved the amendment, he had meant to have delivered his opinion on the question before the House. It had been truly stated, that the Dill was before a Cool , ruittee of the House last Session, but it was not remembered that it had been sent before a Committee by mistake. The whole metro melts had adopted the Coal Gas Light e he appealed to the House whether it had not been found fully sufficient. There was co want of another Gas Company. The police had come forward, and at. ft:tined the tranquillity of the streets, and the rarity of street-rob beries, in a great measure, to the excellent lights supplied by the Coal Gas Company. Many millions of money bad been invested upon the faith of Parliament, in the establishment of the Coal Gas Company ; and he (Mr. P. Moore) dusted, that an opportunity would be given to this Company to receive some return for the sums they had invested. Sr JOSEPH YORKE thought that the fishes of the see might have very ressocable grounds for offence, if the House, by rejecting the Bill, refused to permit them to contribute to this beautiful and brilliant light, which had been so highly commended. (Hear, hear, am a laugh.) Formerly all the streets were lighted with oil, and those who dealt in that commodity should now be permitted an upper tanity of taking advantage of any new invention. It was said that the coal gsa was one fourth less expense than gas had from oil. It this was the case, those concerned in the Coal Gas Compauy need have little apprehensien of camp( tition. Mr SYKES supported the motion for the second reading of the Bill. Not one opposed it who was net connected with the Cna: Gas Company, or with coal mines. He had not a panicle of interftt in oil, but he thought competition must be advantageous to Me public. It was said that the Coal Gas Compare was a eartered company ; but If it was the effect of a charter to prevent We establishment of other companies, and destroy competition, be (.lt.. Sykes) should say. God preset ye us from chartered companies. I it•tvr, hear.) lithe Oil Gm Company should offer greater adman-. teges t and was founded upon a superior invention, he did not see 5-iy it should not came in for a share of the moths now mono. irdi.firal by the Coal Gas Company. He celled upon independent gmtlerren, unconnected with either party, to dispose of the Bill st e ws independent grounds. If the gas supplied by oil is weaker a more expensive than that supplied by coals, where is the fear itcan competition ? He (Mr. Sykes) however relied upon the test eii actual experiment, mid considered that oil gas was preferable to . that supphed Prom coals. He thought the invention of oil gas one of the most useful which had ever been made; and in conclusion eemessed his cootie - ilea that the House would send the Bill to a C.ioficnid e.

Oen. hut smrcely suoceettd to ebteaseng • baring at that all important THE juncture, when Members were more anxious to make a roe& dinner than to make or listen to a good speech, he was fearful that he •ruight prove equally unsuccessful. However, he should not detain the House long. He wished to caution his Ho rourable Friend and others, from joining unadvisedly in this, which he must look upon as one of the many s chemes for procuring the money of th e unwary. He would advise people to keep their motley in their pockets for • rainy day, in preference to exoending it in such scheme*. It was undoubtedly his wish that the Thames should be a high-road for the commercial *hipping of the country, and that every facility should be afforded to the advancement and convenience of those interests. But be did not conceive that there existed any want of room or accommodation for oar shipping in the elver. The present was the age of speculation ; there had been formed companies for the execution of the wildest and most ex travagant schemes—Companies to bring salt water from Brighton, and sea air from Bognor for the benefit of the metropolis. (A laugh.) Associations to bring " Airs from heaven and blasts from Hell." (A laugh.) For his part he should neglect all such chimerical speculations. He should repose upon the unconqueted energies of his own mind, and oppose the institution of a new dock company. (('ortinued laughter.) He should do so particularly, as lie conceived those docks unnecessary and premature, and he should advise the projectors of them to save their money. Mr. 110LME SUMNER thought there was an evident insuffi ciency of accommodation in the present docks. The state of the river was at present extremely crowded ; sr much so, that he un derstood the water-bailiff's were stationed at a considerable distance from the river to prevent merchant vessels from coming up till thou already in the river had been unloaded. Such a state of things as this must be highly prejudicial to the best interests of the COT. rnercial world, as many cargoes, particularly those of wine, were likely to sunx a considerable depreciation. He maintained that the greatest security againit those inconveniences. existed in a fair competition, and thought it not unlikely, that, should the present 8111 be withdrawn, the intended enlargement in the London Docks would not take place. He was of opinion that the thirteen acres intended to be added to the London Docks, and the eleven acres of ihe St. Katharine's Dock, would be all little enough for the accom modation of our increased and increasing shipping. lie did not pretend to be a practical man, but he conceived the present measure necessary. and should on those grounds support it. Mr. Olt ENFELL replied.—The opposition to the present mea sure hail originated, and been carried on by persons possessing a pecuniary interest in the property of the London Dock Company. Last year that Company had said that there existed no demand for farther accommodation ; that their wet and dry docks were amply sufficient, and the charges as low as they could possibly be, con sistently with paying a dividend of 4i per cent. to the proprietors. But what were the facts? In direct opposition to those statements, the London Dock Company had since made a reduction in their charges of full 30 per cent. and offered to provide the public farther accommodation. Would they ever have adopted this course, but for the present measure ? Ile thought not; and thinking so, he would support the second reading of the Bill with his vote, if pressed to a division. Alderman THOMPSON, as far as we could collect, expressed his approbation of the Bill. 31r. C. PELHA3I made a few observations, which did not reach the gallery. Mr. B. 310NCK was prepared to approve of the principle of competition. advanced by the supporters of the Bill, but thought the intended site of the new docks very inconvenient and ill chosen. It would be necessary, in the excavation of them, to destroy the ha bitations of from eight thousand to ten thousand persons. How were they to be provided for? The erection of these docks would also require that that ancient and venerable structure, the Church of St. Katharine, should be levelled to the ground. It involved the exhumation of the ashes of the dead, which he looked upon as a revolting and disgusting circumstance. Ile entertained no objee don to the construction of new docks, but very material ones to [ their erection in that particular situation, and should therefore op pose the Bill. Alderman THOMPSON reminded the House that this was a measure whi:h possessed the support of all the great commercial interests of London. Notwithstanding all the exertions made b the opposers of the Bill, and the friends of the London Dock Company, their petition, presented by the Honourable Gentleman (Mr. Manning), had only two hundred names affixed to it. It had been ascertained in the Committee appointed last Session, that much and valuable commercial property had been deteriorated for want of sufficient accommodation in the present docks. The fact of a reduction of 30 per cent. having taken place in the charges of the London Dock Company, while they continued to pay the same dividend to their shareholders, was cf considerable importance. He thought the institution of the St. Katharine's Dock Company likely not only to afford the desired accommodation, but to enct a still greater reduction in the charges at present made. Sir R. FERGUSON understood that the masters of maay ships at present preferred unloading in the liver, on account of the high charges made by the London Dock Company. The me sent measure appeared to him calculated to do away that monopoly, and he should therefore support the Bill, on the grounds of the public benefit likely to result from its passing into a law. Mr. THOMAS ELLIS stated, that the commercial interests of Cheeky which he had the honour to represent (Dublin), found themselves materially aggrieved by the want of room and scanty accommodation of the port of London. His constituents consi dered the present measure as one likely to remove the inconvenien ces complained of, and on that ground it should have his support. Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, amid loud cries of " Question, question;" and the Ilouse divided, when there ap peered— For the second 'wading - 118 Against it - 30 Majority in favour of the Bill 118 An interval of nearly an hour elapsed between the exclusion of strangers and their re-admission to the gallery. ASSESSED TAXES. Mr. HONYVVOOD presented a petition from the parish of St. Nicholas, Deptford, praying for a repeal of the Assessed Taxes. Lord EDWARD SOMERSET presented a similar petition from Clifton. Mr. LEYCESTER presented at similar petition from the parish of St. James, in Bristol. Sir F.

Mr. FYSSHE PALMER moved for leave to Wallin a Bill for the of empowering Magistrates at Quarter Semitone to effect gee between counties of insulated purees of land,. for the Mom convenient administration of justice. The lion. Member Cll7in so lowa tweet voice as to be slaseet inaudible in &bagel. .* From what we eecasionally heard, lie seemed to be enume. wing the different pieces of land, which, in the course of his re- IMMO ' he had been enabled to trace as belonging to counties from teleichthey were a considerable Infante removed. One he pieti st/timely mentioned as in Bucks. though belonging re, and paying Instrish dues to Wiltshire, and being tin legs than forty nines dis tant from Alariborough, slid fifty from Devisee. The lion. Mem ber enlarged, too, upon the difficulty of executing writs in these remote spots, and of the consequent delay and expense Incurred in law proceedings, sod meeting the objections of those who might be opposed to innovations showing that this proceeding was not with out a preced-ot, from the counties of Cromarty at d Ross, and their various thpeodencies having been unite 11 by an Act of Session in the year 1740. Mr. PEEL, said, he certainly should not make any objectim to the sittroduction or the Hon. Gentleman's Bill, though he appre hended that the Ilan. Geotleman would labour under considerable difficulty in carrying its detaile into execution. As, however, he sestoed to hare made considerable research into the subject, he would reserve anything he had to say until he was in possession of its provisions. One thing he would observe, that the lion. Oen. denude had made uo mention of what he proposed to do upon that gloat ins, onant point—the elective franchise, which might at pre sent Is vested in the inhabitants of these quilictr (we think he called theme. Did he intend it should remain, or be transferred ? Another thing: suppose that an expensive gaol had been built in a particular place to which these inhabitants paid dues, were they to be relieved from this, which had been built in contemplation of their assistance, and removed to another place, where, probably, there was ne gaol at all? These things he thought the Hon. Meru. her would find some difficulty in getting over ; but he would at resent reserve his observations until the Bill was printed and in cart Oands of the House. Mr. F. P.I.L3IEIi said it was his intention, in case the Bill should meet the approbation of the House, to propose, as they were on the eve of a general election, that t.o change should take plate in the state of the elective franchise until twelve months atter the dissolution of Parliament. As to the rates, he thought there could not be much difficulty, for in the place in Wiltshire which be particularly mentioned, although the rates of the county amounted to 16,9001. a-year, the whole charge for that spot was only 281. a.year. Mr. PEEL repeated, that he had no objection to the introdoe tn of the Bill. The clauses could be diseuusd la the Com mittee- MORLAND thought the usual count* was to appoint a . • RITISII PRESS. Commission to inquire into the abuses alleged by the Hon. Mover. He did not think the present arrangement wes liable to any . objec tion. Sireatemtle, a place said to belong to Durham, was situated in the middle of York ; but he knew that in the constabulary ar rangements it was both declared and rated as if it wax a part of York so mho Paker.hcan, mentioned by the 31eutber as belonging to W iltshire, was declared • part of Berkshire. Mr. N. ('A L\' Err said, he feared the lion. Gentleman would find himself much hampered in making the exchanges, so as to ac commodate individuals. Leave was then given to bring in the Bill. cnuittif RATES IN IRELAND. J. NE‘V PORT hoped he should be able to prevail upon litiztfoum to permit his bnnging ia a Bill for amending the Act which regulated the levying and distribution of parish rates in Ireland. The Act at present existing was so scandalously evaded that it had become a dead letter. as to any control of the ibises he should be able to satisfy the House now existed in the management of parish rates. In the Act passed during the reign or William and Anne, the Catholics; possessed the same power of voting in vestries as the Proteitants, but this had been taken away from them by the 12th of George I. ; and it was singular to observe that the same Parliament had made it felony, without benefit of clergy, fora priest to solemnise marriage between a Protestant and Catholic. The Act which he sought to amend was, he believed, the last Act of the expiring Parliament before the 13nlon—an Act which permitted the junction of parishes, some of them 14 and 20 miles distant from each other, and which enabled the vestries to assess the parishioners for the building and re pairing of churches, which they could never, by any reasonable .peesibility, be supposed to enter. The House had last Sea lion rented him a Return of the sums levied from the different litsrittba in Ireland under this Act, and he would now take the liberty of stating a few items, which he had selected from a mat number of the same description, that they might ace in wind a groas manner its pow'tp were abused. It will be found this wherever the law has defined the limits of expenditure, the select vestries have in every case set it at defiance. For instance-- it is particularly enacted, that parish clerks should have different %larks where the duties are performed only weekly, from what they are to receive where it is perfermed daily. De could show that they had not only violated this law on every occasion. but that, io NUM instincts, they had even gone so far as Co give as much to the weekly is Ma deity clerk, and that, too, be was sooty to say, under the very lye of' the diocesan clergy (Hear.) fie hod not had time to look over the whole list, but he could point out some 4 0 or AY abuses of their power, which he thought the House would join him in considering of the grossest kind. In the parish of l'hurles. in Tipperary. he found a charge of 371. for 30 yards of crimson hangings, and 11.10 s. for crimson fringe. \What right, he would ask, had the Catholic inhabitants—the greet majority of the population—to pay for such things es these, for four or five Protestant church-goers? In the town of Wexford, where seven small rectories had been united—one of them, however, nearly ten miles distant from the othets--there was a charge of 101. for the parish clerk ; 10/. for early service, to the same person ; sexton mid beadle 111., raised in 1021 to 20!., for extra service in ringing the bell ; and immediately after we have a notice, that funeral tolls must be discontinued, in consequence of there be ing no bell. (Laughter ' and " Hear, (tear.") An organist, too, is put down - for 20 guineas; a bill for carpenter's work 301. ; and thee comes a Resolution that the clock must continue at present without repairs, because they possess no funds. (Hear.) In Castle Comer. in the county of' Kilkenny—and he begged the particular attention of the House to these items--there was a bill for carpenter's work of 22/. ; interest on the above bill, two lguineas (hear, hear); clerk and schoolmaster, 10/. ; gratuities to m. Taylor, the above schoolmaster, six guineas. And who did the House suppose this Wm. Taylor was? Why, the very in. di vidual carpenter who charged upon his bill the sum of two guineas fur interest, and who now claimed six guineas for gratuities. (Hear.) Really Mr. W. I'a for seemed to be a very great man in the parish of Castle Comer ; then came a charge for robes, 37/. This was the way in which the vestry disposed of the funds they collected from the Catholic population. When a church was about to be erected in a parish of the Queen's County, the Marquis of Lanadown, as an owner of some property in the parish, subscribed 401. while the Rector, who had fur many years drawn a large income from the parishioners, put down his name with 201. He mentioned this as i tt s. 74eunen of the manner in which they were in the habit of dis of their own funds. He would now pass to another had, the parish church of Tuam, in the county of Galway. An Act had been passed granting power to the Lord-Lieutenant and Council of Ireland to incorporate a parish church with the cathedral of any place, when the revenues might be found Insufficient for its preservation from ruin, and it is particularly enacted that this in corporation should only take place in ease the church or cathedral cannot be resorted to for divine service. This law had been grossly abused. 'f he cathedral had been permitted to go to ruin ; but he had no doubt the dignitarieshad not neglected their emoluments, and instead of applying any portion of them to the repairs of the ca thedral, they had suffered it to fall into decay, and he thought there was very little likelihood of its ever being repaired. This Acs, from its terms, must, however, apply to sorce cathedral church not situated in a town ; but the cathedral of Tuam happened to be situated in the very centre of the town, and he certainly thought the dignitaries should have been called upon to support their own establishment. The Act too provided that one moiety should be paid by the parish, and that the other should be taken from the economic fund of the cathedral; but in Tuxtla not one farthing, it appeared, had ever been drawn from that fund for any such purpose. This pariah, he would observe, was composed of five parishes, some of them more than five miles distant from each oilier; 20 guineas were given to the clerk, when the utmost sum permitted by the Statute was only 201.; to the sexton ten guineas; and in 11112 there was an item of 12 quarto Prayer Books, 12 guineas ; two ditto, bound in morocco covers, 3 guineas ; all at the expense of the Catholic population of the parish. The collector of the rates, who received a salary of twenty pounds, had been discharged, and • new one appointed, with a salary of thirty pounds, and what had been the consequence of this change ? Why, the rates, which had been 24d. were in 1823 raised to 7d., and he would repeat, in some of these parishes there were not more than five Protestants. Be would now give another instance—the parish of St. Peter's, Drogheda. From 1012, the charge for sacra mental wine had been from 21!. to 361. a year. (Hear.) Wine, he would repeat, for the sacrament. ( Hear, hear.) Organist, SOL ; attending, 41 ; tuning, 10 guineas—paying the organist, he begged them to observe, for tuning his own organ. (Hear, bear.) A boy 5 guineas; parish clerk, 301.—when the very highest suns permitted by the present Act was IV.; sexton, in 1812. 24!.; in 1813 raised to 30!. And now he Caine to the last,burnot the least : for rebuild. ing, in 1813, the house of the parish-clerk and schoolmaster, and the sexton, 4201. 10s. Did any gentleman ever recollect the sum of 429/. voted by a parish vestry to rebuild the schoolmaster's house? Amongst the items of charge was to be found one for the improve ments of the church, 331. 16s. ; next to this came the charge of 1131. Ifos fur wax candles. There were various other charges which were exceedingly exorbitant, and required correction. (Hear, hear.) In the church in Ardee it appeared that, fur the use of the sacrament, wine was charged at 6!. 10s. per two dozen, and at 71. for the same quantity in the following year. Now it would be well to know how touch of this money was expended in the religious use to which this wine was appropriated, and how much in another way. The charge was beyond all ordinary charges—a most irregular one. He had enumerated the abuses which had crept into the assessment of the parish of St. (leorge. and he had ! every reason to believe that upon inquiry it would be found that a similar opportunity existed for the correction of abuses in other parts of Ireland. 'foe had moved more particularly with respect to this parish, because he found, by reference to the estimate for building (his church, that it was only 16.0001., whereas the expense of its erection even exceeded 57,0001. Most of this money was of course borrowed, and therefore the interest of the money thus borrowed was a perpetual incumbrance on the parishioners. One m her object, and a principal one of the Bill which he in. tended to introduce, was that Roman Catholics might he admissible to the discussions in the vestries relative to the levying of rates on the perishes. Hitherto the custom was to publish notice of such vestries in the chorales only ; but notice aught robe extended to all who were interested in a proper adjust. ment of the wawa that should be paid. lie concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill for regulating the levy of church rates in Ireland, that such levy might be conformable to law, and that due control should be exercised over its expenditure. Mr. GOULBURN begged to assure the lion. Baronet, that the best assistance which Government could afford, should be given to aid his exertions. fus- there was no object more desirable to be at. rained than that transactions between landlord and tenant should be retzove4 from all weep:ion, both on the one side and the other. (Hear, hear) At the same time that he gave this general assent and assurance to the Bill of the Right Hon. Baronet, lie was ap prehensive that some difference of opinion would arise as to the clauses and provisions of it. lie certainly was not et that moment prepared to meet the particular cases which had been adduced by the Right lion. Baronet, as to the abuses which he asserted to prevail insome districts ; lie would only say, that charges were in frequent instances made on the parish Mr the improvement and embellish. ment of Roman Catholic Chapels and other places of religious worship, besides the Church of the Established religion of the country. (Hear, hear.) He would gladly go into the consideration of the Bill, but begged to reserve himself as to its clauses, for its progress to its future stages thmugh thc House. 'l'he motion was then put and agreed to. LANDLORD AND TENANT IN IRELAND. Sir HENRY PARNELL rose to introduce a Bill to amend the Law of Landlord and Tenant in Ireland. That many defects existed In this branch of the law would be acknowledged on all hands, and therelore the necessity of a remedy would be easily admitted also. In the first instance, he was anxious to disclaim any intention of interfering in any degree with the rent that might be agreed upon between landlord and tenant. He was desirous rather of directing the attention of the House to the subdivision of farms in Ireland, and to the evils of which that subdivision was productive. The excerive population of Ireland was alleged to be one rut thegreat grievances orthat country ; that excessive population ems in a great degre e owing to this subdivision, the mischiefs of which it was the oluect of this Bill to remedy. According to the evidence lately laid before the House, it appeared that in many in stances labourers only received fourpence a day as payment foe their work. This was certainly owing to excessive population ; if they were properly paid, the price of labour ought to be, according to a moderate calculation, at least a shilling. As to the law pleventing alienation, the juries wets generally disinclined to favour then', and the Judges evinced a similar disinclination. This appeared from the evidence of Sir. Blacker, an authority of no inconsider able weight on Irish affairs. lie could wish to see the people of Ireland enjoy advantages equal to those which were en. joyed by the people of Scotland, in respect to this department of the law. By the appointment of a Committee to inquire, some practical measure would, is his opiniou, result for its ameliora. tion ; and he was thertfore dogmas that such a Committee should be appointed. lie concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill to Amend the Law of Landlord and Tenant in Ireland. Mr. CA I.VERT seconded the motion. Mr. II GATE was desirous of supporting the Bill, as its object. in his eminent, went to prevent the interference between landlord and tenant in the adjustment of the amount of rent to be paid for land. It went to regulate this point, which was, in his opinion, of the utmost importune-. Sir J. NEWPORT said, that the object of the Bill was not to interfere between landlord and tenant, but to prevent the subdivision of land, which eau an evil of most extensive mischief: It fre quently occurred that land was subdivided amongst several under tenants in Ireland, to the great injury of the landlord and the im poverishment of the tenant. For instance. a landlord lets a certain portion of ground to a tenant, and he does not farm it himself, but lets it to tenants under him. The consequence of such a System invariably was, that the landlord was not paid--that the tenant was not paid—that he scarcely had the comforts of life, and not even the means of subsistence. This was a crying evil, which the pre sent Bill was intended, and he believed would effzetually remedy. (Hear, hear.) After a few words from Mr. CALVERT, and an lion. Member under the gallery, whose name we could not learn, leave was granted for the introduction of a Bill to regulate the under letting of tenements in Ireland. THI: MAGISTRACY OF IRELAND. Sir IT. PA RNELI, was unwilling again to trespass on the atten tion of the House, but the Magistracy of Ireland was a subject of so much importance, that he would, he was satisfied, be excused i in bringing it before the attention of the House. lie did not meat to impute censure to the body of the Magistracy, but there cer tainly was a very great opportunity of improvement in that depart ment of the administration of justice in Ireland. One measure of the Marquis of Wellesley called fur the especial approval of the House—that was the appointment of a bench of Magistrates to sit at Petty Sessions. No meaaure could be more productive of real improvement, and real advantage to the people of Ireland, titan the institution of such Sessiona, to bring forward the gentlemen of the country to administer justice in the local districts over which they presided. One object of the Bill which he should call upon the House to pass, would be to empower the Noble Marquis to carry !fits measure into complete effect. Besides this, another object to be accomplishod by the Bill was to get rid of that unfit measure which was now contemplated. lie was quite satisfied of the ma. dequacy of that measure to do justice on the present occasion. He was certain, that if the office of Justice of the Peace was left in the hands of those who were fit to discharge its duties, there would he a great increase of that respectable body. But he knew it might be answered, that the administration of justice in Ireland could not go on it so many of those who now were tilling the of fice of Magistrate were to be rendered ineligible. But he wculd maintain that no such a case would occur; and if difficulties did arise, of all the ways in the world to meet those difficulties, was that the best which went to e'.ect men unfit for the office ? But such had been the course pursued in Ireland. No fit person being able to be elected, therefore unfit persons were chosen. Ile did not mean to say this was the case in all parts of Ireland ; but It certainly was in many. He was ready . to admit that in some parts no fault was to be found in the Magistracy, but by the evi dence before the Committee of last year there appeared a great deal wanted to lie done in the regulation of the office of Ma. gistrate in that country. He had no intention, howcven of calling upon the House to sanction any specific measure. If the House should but think fit to bring in a Bill on the subjtct he should be' satisfied; all that he required was, that some earnest should be given that the subject should have some consideration before the present Session passed away. If this were done, he would leave the details of the measure to the Committee • contenting himself with stating this fact—that there ought to b e greater number of Maistrates introduced into Ireland, and that a new principle ought also to be introduced to regulate that body. The Honour able Baronet concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bi:1 to regulate the office of Justice of the Peace in Ireland. Mr. GOULBURN said, he had no wish to interfere with the present measure, but he thought himself bound in fairness to the Honourable Baronet to state, that, by giving his assent to the pre sent motion, he (Mr. Goulburn) should not consider himself at all bound to support the provisions of the Bill hereafter ; and, he would now say, that, if the regulation, which he bad heard it reported was to be entbraced by the Bill, for compelling the attendance of the Magistrates at the Petty Sessions, was intended to be introduced, he could not support it, as he should consider it very bard upon the 3lagistrates, and an unjust reflection upon their character. He could assure the Honourable Baronet, that the subject respecting the at. tendance of Justices at the Petty Sessions had been under the serious consideration of the Irish Government. It had been submitted to the Law Officers and to many of the Judge*, who had i expressed their opinions with regard to t ; and the reason why he (Mr. Goulburn) had not submitted a Bill to the House upon the measure was, because it was considered that at the present moment such a course was inexpedient. Of course, by going into an in quiry before a Committee, the facts would be more satisfactorily as. certained, and it would lead to this question—whether the Honour aLle Baronet was right in bringing forward the measure now or not? With respect to the other pant, as to the further revision of the filagistracy, he thought that it required consideration, although no blame could by possibility be imputed to those in whom that power was now vested ; on the contrary, whenever the conduct of any Magistrate had not been sufficiently correct, the Lord Chancellor of Ireland had invariably acted with the strictest impartiality ; and he (Mr. Goulbum) was sure, that on a ll occasions that Nobl and Learned person would act on the same strict prirciple of lair deal. ing towards the whole Magistracy of that country. He (Mr. U.) should not trouble the House any further at ptesent, but reserve himself for farther observations in the Committee as should appear to him to be necessary. Sir JOHN NEWPORT said, he took the opportunity to speak to the House, more particularly with a view ro pant out what appeared to him to be a ter y desirable thing to be accomplished— be meant the substitution fir the present petty Governments and Councils, which existed in many parts of Ireland, of a person to be invested with a power OVir all the Magistrates of each county, in like manner as the Lords Lieutenant of England presided over those of this country. Many counties in Ireland were subdivided almost ad infinitam. This was a great evil, and he thought ought to be remedied. He merely threw this out as a suggestions worthy to be considered; having himself thought much on the subject, and conversed with many friends whose opinions agreed with his own, lie certainly did conceive that such a regulation would be beneficial to the country. lie therefore hoped it would be deemed worthy the consideration of the Committee. Mr. SPRING RICE said, that is any notion existed of intro ducing into the Bill • power to appoint an officer, to be paid, who should pmide in_ the Courts of Petty Sessions, then lie must werentleemiatni wou car d ite l i x f s n u g ch to were the t &mni t isLo ca n. se lle ie w w ontr :u t eri rather submit to a temporary inconvenience than adopt a measure that would operate as a bar to all future improvements in the Magistracy of Ireland. As to giving publicity to these Courts, by requiring them to adopt certain kerns in their proceedings, and recording their acts, and, above all, to regulate their system of fees: for the Magistrates in Ireland were wholly ignorant of what their clerks were entitled to receive ; and they had consulted 51r. Justice Torten% Mr. Blackburn, and many other authorities on the subject, all of whom had told them, all they could do wax, to give some advice at present, but that the law was In such a state that it was impossible to say what fees the officers of a Justice of the Peace could legally claim. Now, if the Bill went to do all this, then he would so far give it his support. Mr. GRATTAN said, he regretted that the Honourable Baronet (Sir H. Parnell) did not apprise the House, what his object was, when be made his former motion, as it would then have enabled Honourable Members to judge of the propriety of agreeing to their voting for the Introduction of thse Bill respecting Landlords and Temente. As to the appointing an officer with • salary to preside at the Sessions, it would in his (Mr. Grattan's) opinion, be a most injurious thing, and perfectly intolerable. Mr. CAREW also objected to a paid magistracy, as being cal. etdated to effect much injury to Ireland. Sir H. PARNELL begged to nay, that his object for not enter. ing into more minute details, as to the objects of the former Bill, was to spare the patience of the House, as lie considered it would be better to leave it to the Committee, than occupy the attention of Honourable Members unnecessarily. With regard also to the Bill now under the consideration of the House, lie had forborne to enter into particulars from the same motive. He begged to ssy, that with regard to one part of the Bill he had been mist:tide:stood. He did not mean to soy that the magistrates should be compelled to atiansi.ehe patty susioas what he meant was, that they should be prevented from carrying on magisterial business at their own houses, which was one ground of complaint against that. body. Mr. LESLIE FOSTER, sa , dhe could not comprehend why any individual should anticipate the Committee which had already been appointed to inquire into the state of Ire:and, by introducing two measures into this House, which as yet it it was not known whether that Committee would agree to. He thought the object of the two of the Hon. Baronet were involved in the inquiries of that Committee, and that it would have been better to wait fur their Report, in ceder to learn what was their opinion upon those points. With regard to the report which had been alluded to by the Hon. Member for Limerick (Mr. S. Rice), which stated tt.at it was in tended to introduce a paid officer into the Court of petty Session, he (Mr. L. Foster) must altogether dissent from it, and more especially if that paid officer was not a Magistrate hunseif, and who could not be very eminent in his own profession ; for such a duty would be incompatible with a high station in the law. The effect of such a measure would be a withdrawing of all the respect able portion of the Magistracy. lie coafessed that he was prepared to teceive the Ball of the Hou. Bari net with great distrust. Lord MILTON said, he was induced to rise in consequence of what had fallen from the Hon. Member who had just sat down, with regard to the propriety of the Hon. Baronet (Sir H. Parnell) introducing these two Bills, while the Committee were sitting up stairs. If Gentlenien were to be precluded from bringing any question before die House respecting Ireland, but were to leave it to the Committee up stairs, then he conceived that such a comer would, in effect, be devolving upon that Committee the whole government of Ireland. He thought it was quite competent for any Member to introduce a measure respecting Ireland, notwith standing that Committee. Capt. O'GRADY said, that as far as regarded the Magistracy of the county which he had the honour to represent (Limerick), he could testify to their attending to the interests of the county within their juriadiction with the greatest promptitude, and that they had on all occasions done their duty. If this Bill went to in troduce a paid magistracy, its effect would be not to regulate the Magistrates, bus to put them aside altogether ; for every Gentleman would, he was confilert, withdraw himself from the Commisolon ; he, fig- ore, should corti.aue to act with tie greatest reluctuce. Leave given. ~~~ I' SEWER LAWS. Sir ROBERT HERON said, he should best consult the wishts of the House if he merely moved for leave to bring in the Bill of which be had given notice, reserving to a future occasion such ex planations as should be necessary to be given by him. He then moved for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the law relating to Sewer.—Leave given. IRISH UNLAWFUL SOCIETIES BILL. The Order of the Day having been read for the House resolvieg Itself into a Committee on the Irish Unlawful Societies Bill, The S PEA KER moved that he should leave the Chair. Mr. HUME rose and said, that before the Speaker left the Chair, he begged to offer a few observations to the House. Fron, the first mention of the measure before the House, he felt it was hard against the people whom it immediately affected, and also against Ineond at large. Every penal law was an evil, unless good could be shown to be derived from it. One of the greatest causes of the evils which affected Iceland, was the daily introduction rat Bills relating to that country. %Fe were continually hearing Oct. tlemen introducing a Bill to patch up this, and to patch up that, instead of his Majesty's Ministers introducing some efficient mea. sure that would ge to the root of the evil at once. No Gentleman bad said that this Bill would be effectual. Its most earnest pea. moters had not confidence to state that, although they hail had set. ficent boldness to state many things Which were net possible to be proved He thought that Ministers, by urging this measure. were taking a most imprudent step, and one capable of leading to great injury to the community. They had said that Deland was in a state of great alarm ; but, instead of saying so, they should say that a all portion only w ere alarmed. Six-sevenths of the population were all united, anti therefore they could not be in a state of alarm. It was only the other one-seventh who had ever hitherto e n j o y e d t h e benefits of place and profit, and they indeed might be alarmed. The state- ; mcnts respecting Ireland had been extremely contradictory. One Gentleman said, that day after day the proceedings of the Cathe lics, especially the Association, threatened the peace of the coon. ir a t d and m is i b n ße is itl t tf e .z red gi . leou i dn ' ecd n s d iared e to r s pr u t , ,,: h e try. Other Gentlemen said, never was Ireland In so tranquil a s ceed tiMem on en before ts this state—never wtharle;laugweavogoeuedgic'ptifiectissotiuhonlal'lTYo should give it all the opposition he could lit every stage. He was aware it might pass; but he and his Hon. Friends around hi a would have the satisfaction of knowing that they had done their • duty, in doing what they could to prevent it. He believed, that as far as regarded the cause of religion, it was utterly false that the Catholics of Ireland sought to gain the ascendancy ; and he also believed that this was made a mere pretence on the part of those who opposed them. it had nothing whatever to do with keeping them from virtaking of the civil rights to which they were entitled. But the fear was, that they would deprive that small body of Protestants who were among them of those places of cum lumen', mato, and trust which they had always exclusively en joyed. Ile( Hume) admitted, that they had certainly some little cause for alarm in this respect. One gentleman had said, but for the Catholic Association we should now he enjoying the benefits arising to the country from the alterations in the Custom and Excise laws. Now what were the grounds of the alarm which prevented the Protestants from enjoying those benefits ? He held in his hand a paper which showed the proportion of the Catholics, and Protestant; who were in official situations in the Customs and Excise, and this statement sufficiently exhibited the partiality that was shown the latter, and the manner in shin the former were kept degraded and vilified by those who enjoyed those offices ever them. In the Customs there were SAS Protestants employed, and only 6 Catholics; in the Excise there were 1116 Pro testants, and only 14 Catholics Such was the manner is which the Catholics of Ireland were treated. It wu not for this House to consider this as an Irish question ; it wu an English question. It was one which affected Englishmen much more then they seemed to feel. We were every day receiving petitions from all • parts of the country for a repeal of taxes. Now if it could be shown to Englishmen that they were actually paying four mil. lions sterling towards the Government of Ireland, and that by a change of the protest system, which change would make that coon. try quiet and happy, it would enable the Ministers to take away a million and a half sterling, which was now used to keep down tl . ot people, would it not be obvious that BO much would bestially aura to the people of England ? But further, were the people of Irela - id . placed in that situation in which they ought robe placed, the revs nue of that country would be increased, and a further reduction et our taxes could take place. The present state of Ireland was ace. tirely the result of that abominable system of exclusion which had been so long observed towards the Catholics, even in those sitpa. ,tions which the law allowed them to fill. The Ministers were :et sincere in their professions of good-will towards that body of people, or they would not sanction this species of preference. He though: that a clear case bad been made out in support of the assertive, that the Government of this country had long acted with oppres. sion towards the people of Ireland. That oppression they were about to perpetuate, but it would in some degree lessen the evil so bring all associations under the same laws as those that were meant to be applied to the Catholic Association. He would thertfore move, that instructions be given to the Committee to introduce into the Bill, for the prevention of all unlawful assemblies, a clause to oblige all persons accepting office under the Government to make oath that they do not belong to any society which the Act deems illegal, and that they never will belong to any such society. The SPEAKER observed, that by the motion of the Hoc. Member (Mr. Hume), to give instructions to the Committee to traduce a clause into the Bill, a power would be given to the Coe. wince of doing nothing more titan they were already empowered to •do. The Hon. Member, however, might not be aware that there was to necessity for any such instruction. Some conversation on this point arose between the SPEAEED and Mr. Ht: ME. and the SPEAKER afterwards put the quesuor, " That instructions be given to the Committee to make provisioa in the Bill that every person hereafter appointed to any of end or military, under Government, shall be required to make oath that he is not, and will not, become a member of any society rude unlawful by the present Bill, or of any other unlawful society whatsoever. Alt. GOULEURN observed, that at no very distant day the House would hare a full opportunity of entering into the facts en the subject now in the course of debate. With respect to the Bill row betore the House, if he had not misunderstood the sentiments of the Honourable Members around him, and he believed be had not misunderstood them, it was intended to make some proem:ea egainst all unlawful societies. With respect to the clause the Honourable Member (31e. Hume) sought to introduce into that Bill, it was his (Mr. Goulbum's) opioian that-it would be one is DO way likely to effect the end in view, but one that would un questionably be extremely objectionable. The House would re. collect what wu the principle of that clause. It was to call upon I any individual who was appointed to fi ll any o ffi ce, however low it might be, to declare upon oath that lie DM not a Member of any society which the law declared to be illegal, and that be would not in future become a member of any such society. If this principle were admitted in this instance, why should it not be in more ser ous matters? If a person appointed to office were called upon to state so much, why should he not be called upon to state that be is not guilty of crimes the commission of which would subject hint to much higher punishment ? Besides, might not a person be often thus called upon to confess, whom it was intended afterwards to prosecute ? He knew of no instance in which such a test w as he knew that it was not requisite in the present in stance. The Honourable Gentleman (Mr. Hume) had said, that it would be the means of preventing individuals from tilling public situations who were members of any illegal body ; but even here he (Mr. G.) conceived it would be ineffectuaL That Hoes. Member bad stated that some time since anAct had been passed for thepreven tlon of unlawful societies, and yet they had continued to meet under the eyes of the Governener.t. But might not this have been caused by such an alteration in the nature of those societies as that they had cease to be illegal. If an individual wete called upon to take the required oath, and were willing to continue a member of any society, he might save himself from the penalty, and yet take the oath, by evading the law. He saw no rearon why persons should be called upon to take any such oath not to belong to unlawful societies, when for being so lie might be prosecuted by the law. Ile objected therefore to the clause ; first , because it was a new and unprecedented mode of preventing an offence; and next, be cause it would not produce the objects contemplated by the Hon. Member who proposed it. He deemed it therefore his duty to re sist the motion of that Honourable Member. The Honourable G. LAMB said, that there had always been some certain tests for persons appointed to public offices, and it would not be improperly appointed now. 'l'he Orange Lodges were deemed illegal by the Government, but they were encouraged tats perpetual nomination of their members to public situations. Tin Catholic Association had been accused of using violent and . unjustifiable language, but he had found nothing in the report o f their proceedings half so violent and unjusti fi able as the language of some honourable Members of that House, who had decried the members of the Catholic Association as demagogues—and as much worse tl:an demagogues. When two societies were declared ille gal by Parliament, it was of very little impartacce to Oovcrnment, to oblige thou whom they might call to any public office, to make oath that they did not belong, and 'mold not belong, to either o: . those Societies. Ile did expect, toot the tone of the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite (Mr. Goolbtan), that he would tree ma's soma solid objection to the motion of the Hon. Member for Aber deen, but nothing of the kind had been adduccd. He (Mr. 1.. Lamb) believed, that if the House of Commons sent forth this ob noxious Bill, without the introduction of some such clause as the one proposed, the Catholics could never be brought to believe that there was any sincerity in the assertion, that during the past See. Ikon (but int: so (melanin in this) was so often echoed through the House, that his Majesty's Government did not wish to give a triumph to either party. lie would support the motion of his lion. Friend the Member for Aberdeen, because of Lis conviction that it would be the means of satisfying those who doubted the sincerity of his Majesty's Ministers, in declaring that they did not wish to give a triumph to either party, but would hold equally ti.• balance of jostice. Mr. C. 11. HUTCHINSON said, he rose to repeat the same sentiment, and, if possible, the genie language he had used in that House on a former occasion. Ile would not be, nor would the Uninsurable Members around him be, shamed out of their feelings of dislike towards this abominable measure—a measure which was actually calculated (the Honourable Gentlemen might smile or frown as they pleased)—acivally calculated to rouse the people of Ireland, if not to acts of outrage, to active exertions t i put down such men as those who had advised the King to snake such a sea:.. rent as that contained in the Speech from the Throne—thou Royal Advisers who had proposed a measure calculated to raise the whole population of Ireland in rebellion against it. lie did not know how they dared to propose it, and to propose it without say grounds--for the false statements contained in the spee:hea of the Members on the other side of the House had been ably replied 10 and coofuted.
