FDINROROII roues Btu. Mr. J. SMITH presented a Petition from *body of ie. dividuais, incorporated by Royal charter at &filatures, assin4 the FAinburgh Police Bill. This body was . most retipectable one, by the name of the Chamber of Commeree, and they represented the sentiments of the great utiajority of the inhabitants of this city. This MI was considered universally as most injurious and most oppressive. Mr. KENNEDY spoke to the respectabi:itv of the pr.( titioners, anal byzed to say he considered the Bill as • most unwarrautable attempt to infringe on the rights of private indivi•lnAs. Mr. DUNDAS said, this body of Petitioners against his Bill was one of very few numbers; whilst be hail re vivid the assent of the greater pert of the inhabitants. Mr. HLTME begged to correct the lion. Member, by reminding him that every corporate body in Etlialmrsti had - petitioned against this Bill. It was most obnoxious; and be hoped the house would treat it as it should be when it came again before it. The Petition was then ordered to be printed. Imes WINDOW TAX. Mr. ROBERT SHAW postponed his motion for the repeal efthe Irish Window Tax, from the 7th to the 24th of April. MALT TAX. Mr. LUSHENOTON brought in a Bill for the repeal of the Malt Tax, which was read a first time, and ordered fur a second reading to-marrow. TAGIL tNT LAWS. Mr. CHETWYND called the attention of the house to the subject of a notice he had given for that day, to move for a Bill to consolidate all the existing laws re lating to the apprehension, punishment, and treatment of vagrants. Of the necessity of having this class of et tentless under the correction of the law there could be es' doelot,olad the itiefAcient ease of the laws relating to them. chiefly owing to their multiplicity and intricacy. too many instances bad come under the knowledge of the house not to spew the necessity of some new arrange. rents. He had intended to bring theauhject before dm 1 ()nee last Session, and althongh-tie had been prevented. 1 e did not.make it cause of regret, having had so mach the more leisure for acquiring information mot euiterleg his plan; and "row the assistance of the Afendicity So ciety he bad derived the meat important hints. The ob ject of the Kill be desired to bring in would be, first, to consolidate all. the Imes on the subject; and nest to de fine the precise offences which were to subject any per son to the operation of the Statute. He wished to sepa rut* the cases of the criminal from the idle and disor derly •-the dissolute and sturdy from those that were remparatively innocent, having been driven to a state of vagrancy from necessity, than betaking themselves to it f-ow choice. Of the utility of such arrangement and trisasification, there could be no question, when it was re . membered that the law made no distinction between prostitutes, ballad-singen. prize-fighters, anal the plate • tolders for a charitable purpose, at a church door. It was highly desirable that there should be an uniformity of practice among Magistrates throughout the kingdom, tied for that purpose it was that he wished to see the law, placed within a short compass. The third object of the Bill would be to specify the punishments of va grancy, and to adapt them to the present state of so ciety. lie would not go through the old statutes to chew the different punishments enacted, such as brand ies and bnrning vagrants, which being now obsolete, it became necessary to change the nature of this punish. agent with the changes in society. In acting thus, he should be guided by the opinion of that enlightened Magistrate, Mr. Colquhouu. He had this meriting re cetve4 a letter from a Magistrate, who informed iiiin that the simple expenses of passing vagrants for one year. for the counttes of Berkshire and Wilts, was up wards of two thousand pounds. It was plabm therefore, that the interference of legislation was required here. The next point to which this Bill would be directed was, the common lodging-h for vagrants, which swarmed in some parts of the metropolis, and were ac tually hot-beds for vice. These he should propose to he pot under the surveillance of the Police. The Honour *We Gentleman concluded by moving for leave to bring is a Rill to facilitate summary proceeding* by Justices of the Peace and others. Mr. GIPPS seconded the motion, but hoped the Bill would not be hurried through the house. Sir I. COFFIX thought such a Bill would be highly useful. Leave was then given. Mr. CHETWYND then moved for leave to bring INA Ell to regulate the form of conviction in all cases of de linquency under the Vagrant Act. The necessity If, such a Bill would be felt where it was known that it am • matter of difficulty even with the great lawyers to dm* up the right form of conviction in cases nearly similar. The object of his Bill would he to establish the 'same form to meet all convictions of the same class. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR thought the lion. Gentleman was entitled to the Thanks of the House, for his praise worthy intentions and exertions. He feared, however. he would not he able to frame a statute for the proposed. end, that some rognish attorney should not discover a loop-hole by which to evade it. Leave was then 'given, • ' WSJ I \ • I, * g a l I kte . PCBLTC RECORDE. Sir J. NEWPORT molted, that the Regulation of the house of the 7th inataot, relating to the Public Records, be sahmitted to s Committee, in order to carry the inten t,' ga °film hoase'into effect. After a few words from Mr. D. Gilbert End Sir-J.New. port, which were inaudible in the biallery, a Committee nominated for the said purpose. • • CALL. OF TOE 110CSE. • Sir J. NEWPORT adverted to the noticehe had giveii • a motion fay a c.lll of tile house on the 24th instant s had dose Ild with a view to make Hon. Meutheri en listed with thelpproanb of Important Irish husinasii might happen to be iu distant partsof the kingddits; 16 zrklF .sTATFI4' Be bad fixed upon that time, because there were man' ether matters of deep intermit and importance to the wel f ire of that country pending about that particular period and it was then his intention to call the attention of his roantrveses and the house serious'? to the condition of Irelana en that day. He truated that lion. Members would regard any inconvenience they might be subjected to in consequence of this course, as a boon granted to his suffering country. And he begged to assure them that nothing could be more satisfactory to the people of that country, and nothing more calculated to conciliate them than the attention of their rulers and representa tives to their interests and complaints. This was the object of his motion—he desired to establish in the hearts of the people of Ireland that - confidence in the British Legislature which they would give to one of their owls For this parpose, he begged to move, that there Ise a 01f of the house on Wednesday, the idtli of April. The CHANCELLOR of the BXCHEQUBR ezpressed his entire concurrence in the sentiments of the Hon. Baronet. The sabject to be submitted to the attention of the house by the Hon. Baronet was one of the deepest importance, which it was hiedlr desirable they should conic to the consideration of in the most deliberative and most authorative manner. The question was then put, and the motion agreed to. POOII Mr. COURTENAY, afters few observations sot dis tinctly audible in the gallery, moved that a Committee be appointed, to consider of the Umtata! Returns which bad been laid on the table of that house flaring the years Nl9, 1820, 1821, relative to the stuns mimed for rates in Great Britain; and report their observations to the liouse.—Committee appointed. lONIAN 'IMMO.. Mr. HUME, la consplianee with the request of Lord J. Rnssell, postponed his motion oh the solticet of the lonian Islands from the 19th to the 21st last. COLLUCTION 0/ Tilt leviortm. Colonel DAVIES said. that In directing the attention of the House to this sublect s pursuant to notice, it was not his intention to go into the details connected with it; but merely to endeavotir to convince them of the propriety of taking this branch of the expenditure of public money, more particularly under the cognizance of Parliament. When they considered that it involved the question of a sum of four millions, in the expenuli ' titre of which those who managed it were accountable only to themselves, lie thought they would see that io this season of distress, it was theigbounden duty to take the same salutary care of it as of the other smaller sum. Ile need not reflood the House that it was always eiMele tiered that it was the patronage attached to the die's- sal of this sum that the Minister possessed go ppm of regulating the veers in that House. This sow ht. 0, pectin 4r claim to their attention. All that he intended to trouble the House with was to come to certain Rear lotions which he should submit to %hemline of thaw was to 'thew the increase which had taken plate in the charge for collection since the rear 1810, as compared with 1820. It would he found that in the collection of the Customs there was an increase of 1/. Is. sd. per cent.; the duty on hackney coaches. 141 s. Bd. per. cent.; in the Post Office upwards of 21. per cent.; and on . the hawkers' anti pedlars' ditty nearly the same increase. He took all these statements from the 'weenies laid on the tithe of the house. He had not gone to 1792, or UK, but takes the comparison with a year when the depreciation of the currency was at its height, 18It He kelt wished to pledge the House to an ophtion that annslalegecounts of this branch of expenditure should be laid before Parliament. He did not call fur retrench ' unbent, hot tbikit the fear millions tlau dispose 4 of Mionlil be subjected to the same serntiny as the otheesbimschei of expenditure. It would probably be objected to him' that such a motion as this dial not deserve support after' the statement of the Right lion. the Chancellor of the Exchequer. lint be should contendsthat that statensont was a reason for supporting it. as they had so frequently before heard that all public departments were on their lowest footing. They had, hos since that been reduced lower, and probably the expenditure was equally capable of being curtailed. The charges for the collection of the Customs in 1820, as compared with the year 1788, shrived an increase in the ratio of 71. per cent. They must not allow themselves to slumber, or nothing would be done in the way of lessening the public burthens. The hon. member then stated the case of some individuals who were in the receipt of sa laries for two situations connected with the Customs, the duties of which they could not perform. Dv a re ference to the acconots, they would find a Mr. Prewin, who, although a Commissioner of the Customs, was also possessed of another situation, from both of which he received large salaries.—(Cries of hear, hear.) Another tientleman, a Mr. Dean, had held for many years a situation which gave him 15001. per an num. If he did any thing to merit such an income, he should think he could give much of his time to the per formance of his duty as Commissioner of the Customs. The Commissioners of Customs were, iu his opinion, un necessary. Their number might he reduced from nine to sin without throwing any impediment in the way of the public business. But the same principle was acted upon there as every where else. Poor wretches receiv ing half-a-crown a day, and tide-waiters, might be re dared ; but the higher officers were never touched, and it had not been recoil:omitted that the number of Com missioners should be diminished. He then read a mi nute from the Lords of the Treasury to the Commis sioners of Customs, in which their Lordships declared that they would consider it highly improper in the Board to appoint any one to a situation in the Customs, without first ascertaining that he was in all respects well qualified. Nothing could he better than this regu lation ; the precept was admirable. lint how had their Lordships acted on it. They had taken seven ont of nine Commissioners appointed from other departments, and placed them in their present situations, though they knew nothing at all of the Customs. The last appoint. ment was that of an Honourable Officer, who fornseehr haul a seat in that House. - But he.- as an Army Officer, could not be supposed to have had much insigyt ioto the business of the Customs. The Hon. Member then came to the Superannuation List, and auiusadverted on i s increase for several year.. On the last year, the Si, peraiinnation List for Customs, exclusive of Ireiand, was not less than 80,090/. He contended that per sons were put on the Superannuation List, who were not entitled to it by tee Act of 35 Cleo. !IL ?one were entitled to be put on time List by that Ace, unless by length of service, age, or infirmity. tie would next come to the Preventive Establishusent, or, as it was called, the Coast !blockade, which fir the last year amounted to 611,C901. Notwithstanding that expense, smuggling was carried on at that moment more than ercr. 'flue people along the coast were tempted to join in it by the high profits and wages which were hell oat to diem. Ail ranks were ea rs:zed in it.. Even ladies of the first rank were the greatest smugglers. lie would cite osse instance t o show the great profits ariciug from that illicit prac tice. A cargo of foreign spirits might be supposed t o contain' 500 tubs,. which made about 2,000 gal lons, at 11. 2s. per gallon Of that same, of some thing more than 2.oool..abssat 8001. went to the King The remainder was to be given to the informer and to the cCah..otwhich the sow of 400/., that was, owe-third Pet to theinformer, who was himself the guilty tudiri- Tlsesuisis which were given it' rewards of that kind, stem enormous. Within the last two years. loot • 'ems than 104.0001. had been gi;ea In such "regards tie received an account from Brighten. 04 tlaff 11 ' s twenty-el: informations were laid is one day for deal. log in Illicit spirits. He world reaseemosd the c duction of the duty front 19s. to 12s. per gallon on foreign spirits, which would de away the necessity of so expensive an establishment. It was computed that no less that 150,000 tubs of spirits were run Ill• without duty. By the reduction of the present high linty, not only the expense of the Preventive Establish ment would be lessened, but also the revenue instead of being diminished would be considerably i d, for all temptation to smuggling would be removed In 1810 the duty, per gallon, was 13s. lid. The number of gallons imported exceeded two millions, and the revenue exceeded 1,500,0001 ; since the is d duty of 19s. was put on in l 12, the revenue fell off about one.tentb. The Honontable Gentleman then complained, that the several returns for which he moved on the Bth of February, were not yet pro duced. The departments in Scotland bad codiplied with the order of the House in a few days, bet the English department bad treated it with neglect. k{ter a few mere ob lions, in which !be Hon. 1111 per pressed on the House the neceseitoilkjlinfing to bis motion, .he concluded with the folio log Rem , lotions:— "Resolved, Thas it appears that the sum of 4,102,215L 1 17s.

Issue been disbursed without any ac count being gives of the manner in which they have been applied. "That to enable this House to exercise a proper cow trout over the Public Expenditare, it is St that Estimates of the probable charges of collecting and managing the Revenue, be antutally submitted to the consideration of Parliament and a vote taken thereupon." • Mr. LUSHINGTON said that, in rising to answer the statements of the Gallant Officer, he would avoid the bestowing on him of those epithets which be so profusely lavished on Members at his (Mr. L.'s) side of the House. But be would show the Muse that the Gallant Officer had mistaken, not only the items on which he built his arguments, but also the con clusions which he drew from them. In the first item which the Gallant WE •er mentioned, he had stated only 10,000,0001.; but to that lie should add 3,000,111)01. more. So that, in the very first itew, there was a mistake of 3,000,0001. In the second :tem—namely, the Excise—there was a mistake of 5,000,000/. Whets such great errors were found in the two first item, the conclusion founded on those were of course erroneous. He did not mean to say that the Gallant Officer meant to deceive the House, but he would satisfy the Gallant Officer that be de ceived himself. In the yea► 1812, it would be seen that the charge for collecting and managing the Re vanity was U. 9s. Sd per cent. In the year 1820, it was 31. 1 Is. 4d., which made a difference of two shit- ' 1 lines and eight pence per centum. The mistake of the Gallant Officer was in comparing the permanent duties, and leaving out the extraordinary duty. The Gallant Officer stated the gross produce of the Cus toms in 1812 to I.e 10,023,8701. hut the Gallant Of ficer coedit' have added 3,000,000/. more to that' sum. Ile had made a mistake of 5,000,000/. in the Eadse also. Those gross reform would show the l House how little the Gallant Officer knew of the corn-1 paralive state of the Revenue. The charge for ma- 1 naciix the Remise of Excise, was in 1812 3/.17s 4d 1 and in 1820, W. 18s. Id. leaving a difference of less than one-twelfth of a pound per rent. in 1820. The average charge of managing sad collecting both' Customs and Excise was, for 1812. 51. 9s. rid. and for 1820, 51. 17s. 4d. Time email excess for 1820 could be easily accounted for by the increase of coot. tame and necessary large establishment. lint the Gallant Officer had stated that the increase of duty had •liminished the Revenue. The best proof of the contrary was in the papers on ,the table. There was an increase of the •ggregate Revenge aris ing from foreign spirits, tea, tobacco, and snuff. —On the two latter there was a little diminu tion. The decrease in smuggling was in fact astonishing, and that was owing to the honesty, the integrity, and vigilance of the olficors who who were concerned in those departments. lint it was not necessary for him to follow time gallatat Officer through all the topics of his speech. Ile heli.wed that in pointing out the gross mistakes of three and five millions in the t,vo first items, he had ahewn enough to satisfy the house that the statements of the gallant Officer did not deserve any attention. The Mon. and Gallant Member complained of the great delay there was in furnishing the accounts called fur by the order of the house. He eonld only assure the house that every exertion had been made in the different offices for the porpove of preparing th:tse accounts. The .nbordinate officers, he could assure the Qallant octal, who bad visited them with so much mitt oazh for delay, had been most diligently nod. lain/dustily ma played night and day; so that the ordinaty basisees of the office bad heen postponed. in order to prepare the at count. moved for hr the Gentlemen on 'heather .side.
