Mr. Alderman Wooer then rose and said, as he hoped there would not be any objection to the ap pointment of the Committee for which he was about to move, he should not detain the House lens, nor trouble them with many observations. It was, however, neessiiry that lie about.] make tome steteistrato, to thew tluit there was a outfit:tent ground for inquiry. The gaol of Helmsley is infested close to the rive r , the water from Which oozes through its banks into and under thegaol. The river frequently overflows; fills the drains end the wells, and sometimes inundates the whole prison. On one occasion. the wilder before hen, the gaol was suddruly nutter water, 14 inrhei in depth throughout, the prisoners being wet. t i their • knees, in which state it remained a day and i night. The sewer of the prtion was cline fry the wells which supolY it with water, and it has beeu disco vered to have burst into some of them, and im pregnated the water with its Contents. Sickness is very frequent among the prisoners: it often hap. pens that ten or twenty !lemons are on the sick list at once; and there is no infirmary to which they may he removed. Two debtors, in couseque,ice, died within a few months hack in the midst of : their companions. The surgeon, too, wilt' ittenda 'the prisoners, lives at s distance or five miles.— Thew are two wards allotted to debtors: one of which is occupied by persons who pay the gaoler for beds, awl purchase their own subsistence— the other, called the Poor Debtor.' Ward, is occu pied by those who receive the county allowance. The debtors are permitted to see their friends at three separate hours in the day, in a room called the Conversation Room, and their wives were per. witted to visit them in the wards common to all, from ground allowed them for exercise is about one ervrulernth part of an acre, and of that a considerable portiere is taken away as a cabbage girden for the gaoler. There is tin place in the 'onion set apart fax the reception of female debtors, who are there: for e compelled to choose between a solitary dad* gill, f which they esti at no time see the so rod the company of w o m e n charged with eve r species of crone. The gaol is considered to bat open at nine o'clock in the moriiiii p ie. and shut at fly afelock in the a ft ernoo n . But that, it was Plat t * •pplied to the prisoners only ;• whittle the hoes* 4, the gaoler, it was stated, that the mak Pellerliemoble hours are kept; and that armies the ohret scandalous revelry, drunkenness, and d.sripotiou. often occur at Isis parties, *heed satnitig was said to be carried on to a shame. (al pitch with farmers o her persons irkrhstis descriptions who visited lino. among wham was she Clergyman of the parish, who was stated to have Jost 181. at n sitting. But while these irents were exhibited in the Gaoler's house, it isia'ed that the most severe discipline was teem' •• inning the • prisoners, pertly by the rules of the Megistrates, and pertly at the discretion of tf e l Gaoler. One ins:mice of the punishment inflict by the latter authority was rather singular. A Ilia, or the name of Gardiner had been placed by hill its dark and solitary confinement, handcuffed sail chained to the bed ; his head was then shaved, and . • blister put on the bare scalp by the hands of it tallow-prisoner. This he contrived et length IS get oft by rubbing his heed against the wall, bilt Oben that was discovered a strait-waistcoat was pat on him and another ?blister placed on the aka% which was already raw—neither a magistrate our • surgeon being present. The Right Hon. Gentle man might smile [some Member on the Treasury "tench. we suppose, was observed to smile], but kip believed he would not feel very happy if he were is a similar situation. The Hun. filember proceeded to make some further atateniesits of a like nature. and protested that iii biingieg forward this subject, he yids wholly inisiflueuced by suy other cuusidera tion than a desire to discharge what he conceived to be bus duty. These alinements and various whets had been made to bird. indeed they had beets publicly circulated. There w, re ninny %sitarist" who might be examined to substantiate or disprove theta, and tie though* the House would not 'cr u se to inquire into them. Sir Samuel Romilly had oh tuned an inquiry upon a st.steniebt far lee: revolting. He concluded by moving— . That a Selves Conossitiie be apt • led to inipsire into and report *list has been, and now is, the imminenl of rieueet• eueisseti in tidiest. r gaol, and to revert le the 'Hotta their opiate's ef the conduct sod isismigissent of the Saud *Gaol." Mr. FOWELI. BUXTON rose to second the mo tion, not because he thought the iitateruesits which had been made to he noir, hut because he thought the ease ought to be fully inveatigated ; min if the charges utsde itglaiiist the gaoler were riot plowed, lie ; was sure the Hon. Aldtriasisit would join with hies in giving the gooier the fullest viudication ; but if, ou the other baud, they turned out to be true, he felt • equally slim that every Member of oh it flimsy would cielicur lb thiliking the *eitilet &arrest% of toe heaviest punishment. The lion. Whittier thrti proevedell to allude to a charge which hail been made against him by Mr. Huta, of bari n g impelled on the wield by an unmerited eulogiusa On the ' mama getiteut of the gaol.

As to the dinapiiese . of the gaol, • which had been stated as ariaitig from its position relative to the river, he could mate that the bed of the river was full eighteen feet' below the level of the gaol. With respect to the retrial.. Quaker con fined in Whether gaol, he was informed by one of the Society' of Friends, that on het arrival et the gaol, the gaoler alfered to place a person'along with her (no Verson bring then confined in that palm of t the gaol), and the same offer had since been made to her by the visiting Nlagietrate, hut she declined it; so that her being in soloists confinement wee of her own choice. The brother of the Hon. Member's' correspondent had seen her, and she had expressed ' herself perfectly satisfied with the mintier in which she bad been treated. The Honourable Member concluded with suggesting whether it would not be better to haves Comrniment fur the inquiry, no pre ference to a Committee. Sir ISAAC COFFIN wished that an inquiry should take place, as he was one of the ',prisons who was represented in the publication which had been al luded to as having got drunk and played at cards in the prison. Dr. LUSHINOTON, from what he knew of the gaol, should say that the Magistrates deserved com mendation for the proper state into which they had brought it. When he last visited that gaol, it ap peared to him that the beneficial measure of em ploying the prisoners was carried to a great extent by the ability and talent of the gaoler. He b-liev ed there were many faults in the construction of the prison, and he had heard many assertions of cruel treatment of prisoners, of which he was not at present competent to form an opinion, but on which account he thought inquiry obsoletely ne cessary. That great abuses might exist in prisons diataut from the metropolis he could readily believe, sluice he knew an instance in the Borough Compter, which lie believed was visited by the Aldermen of London, of two females who were committed as vagrants, and were inter mixed with the male prisoners and confined for eleven days, entirely destitute of covering, of *hick fact he was an eye.wiii i ess.--(4 l aNg h.)— Knowing this fact having textured ses near the me tropolis', lie should be deficient in his duty if he did not support novestigstion and inquiry. Wheor that inquiry took place, he believed no blame would be found to at'uch to the Magistrates. Mr. B. BATHURST agreed with the Hon. and Learned Gentlemmi„ that this was a case which re quired investigation, but be doubted whether a Committee would he the most proper mode by which to conduct it. Mr. BENNITT said, that he recollected when the Hen. Alderman lied bought Nee imelesslarities of this prison before the House at a former night, there were Gentlemen who had got up and denied every word that he had said. With respect to the mode of inquiry, he would observe, that if ever there was an inquiry which was a perfect mockery of justice, it was the Commission to inquire into the Lincoln gaol : therefore he for one should not cow sent to that mode of investigation. Ile held its his hand a list of thirty-two witnesses, who might be exemined, in 1 1 '11101 there were very few pinemere, but officers of the army and navy, discharged ser vant, of the prison, and sons of Magistrates; it was therefore unnecessary for the House to delegate its power to other hand.. Sir THotIAS LETHIRIDGII said, there might be irregularities on the part of the gaoler or loot ser vants, but lie was sure list on inquiry the conduct of the visiting Magistrates would be found per fectly correct. It lied been stated, that the gaol Wei unwholesome with regard to the river. The high-slater Mark was several feet below the level of the gaol, and though it was near the water it cal h: no means Unhealthily placed. He thought the ti ide of inquiry by Committee was objectionable, not only from its expense, hut that much advantage would he reaped by a Commission on the epot, bring able to bring all the parties before them with. out loss of time. Mr. CHIEFLY would vote for the Committee, as Ile dish not think there would be any savors; of et penee by the ippoitement of a Commisrion. lie confessei he looked with suspicion at the recout ourioilitiun of Ministers for a Commission, knowing that in general the appointment of Comastosioners WOO made r natter of patronage. A Member, whose mime we could nut learn, dis aented bum the opinion pronounced by the Hon. Member for Shrewsbury (%ir. Bennett), on the Lincoln Gaol Commission. Ile supposed the Member derived his isoformation from Mo. Peter F 1111 l troy. Or. tENN Ii.TT denied having bed any memo soicatioh Wish Mr. Finn e rty; but, if he lord, lie dirt" not know that that Gentleman was nut entitled to as flinch prowled consideration as the Hun. Aleut ben 1 self. Sir It. HERON was favourable to inquiry by Criqn int I tee. W. D. Baownc opposed the inquiry, as being frivolOus fur the interference of Parleament. 11t'r. Huila 'thought it was a little too much for the lion. Member liar Mayo, alto had scior:ely been two ruitoutes in the Mouse, to get UV and oppose it Motion, the ;import ul which he had evidently 'lsis cuticei s ed. Mr. U. Baowas Mr. A literati's WOOO replied to the objections which lied beers urged against the uppoiutaieht of a Consmittee. Mr. RuatellON thought the Commission its the Ark instance would be the Oust convenient and efficient mode. At fur the observations of the Hon.

"l . fir a Commiw.inn, Mr. Baoirit thought the lion. Miinber was irregular in now prorating lII' annendmrai. Mr. Gouusuai contended that his conduct was Oriel) , parliamentary. Mr. IiARBORD wished that some understandink Arnold he come to, as both sides must be ansi"us Gir perfect inquiry. He begged to suggest that a Committee might be appointed in the first instance, out of which a Commission might grow, abould it be deemed necessary. Mr. Wontlion thought a Commission on the spot was the most proper to inquire into such ques tions as the site of the prison, the supply of water, and other local matters. He was surprised the Honourable Alderman had not replied to the charge which the lion, and Learned Gentleman (Dr. Luoliingion) had brought against him. Alderman Wools denied that the statement of Ids flionoarable and Learned Friend was any atm* on him. He had not thought it necessary to taker, up the time of the House with a question foreign to that under discuirotan, hut he should be ready to go into any iiiqttiry, and meet his lionourable and Learned Friend on the subject. Mr. C RE ev ex maintained Ins former opinion. not withstanding the romantic disregard of patronage and jobbing expressed by the Treasurer of the Navy. It should he recollected there was a motion shout to he submitted to the House by the hon. Member for Waterford to inquire into Commissions of this sort. Four or five years ago a Committee was moved for, but it was opposed, and u Commis. sion appointed, consisting o" five very grave per- Mine ; two of them, he believed, Masters in Chan cery. The whole of their labours had been two or three miserable Reports ► though the Members had 1.5001. per uniturn, and the two Masters in Chan. eery their 4,000/.4 year elan fur that. One of lite Cominiinioners was Mr. Osgood, who had been a Commissioner to inquire into the state of Lincoln gaol. Dr. LUSHINOTOM did not think the objections of his firsii. Friend (Mr. Creestry) to Commissions in general upplied to this particular case. The in quiry could not lest more than a fortnight, or a 'ont!) at farthest. Considering the difficulty • Committee would have in reporting on the site nt the gaol, the state of the cello, &e. although be hulk come down prepared to support the appointment of ff Committee, he yet must, for the reasons given, eq..ider a Commission as the most efficient mode. lie adhered to the statement which he had made respecting the Borough gaol, as lie was an eye-wita neva of the fact. One of the unfortunate fiat % *as under seventeen years of age, and was suffering under severe disease. As they were only commit. test as vagrants, he had procured their discharge, ewe to Guy's Hospital, and the other to the Re fuge for the Destitute. He had mentioned it twit Os a matter of charge against the Hun. Alderman, but to thew that abuses had existed. Mr. B. BATHURST said. Mr. Osgood had been selected. because he was peculiarly qualified for such inquiries. He censured the Hon. Member (Mr. Creevey) for thus by name holding up to deitsure an individual of high honour and character. Mr. BURTON suggested whether it might not obviate some of the objections to the Contusions*, if the Honourable Alderman were to be oppeigtM4l due of the Conniss'onens. He was pecoliWir well qualified ; first, because he had been beforelif ilehester gaol—(4 laugh)—and secondly, because, m he had been so economic of the city funds, thrall was no danger of any extravagance with the polio He money. Mr. Alderman WOOD denied that, he had awe bitter qualifieation for the office of Coninsimionm Haan the Honourable Member himself. I The amendment was then put and carried. COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY.—ARMY ESTIMATE& The House then resulted itself into a Committee of Supply. , Lord PALMEILSTON moved, that a ARM not A*. reeding 6,854/. be granted to defray the expenses of the office of Adjutant-General. Mr. flume was anxious the Noble Lord would state for what purpose so many clerks were to b. kept up in that establishment. It was quite ire, possible that the country could, in its present mob dition, support such an enormous expense. IT they referred to the office of Commander-to-Chief' in 1797 or 1798, they would find there IN! the*. in it only Sir H. Busihnry, and three clerks at 4001. a-year each. And lie should be glad to know for what reason as large a sum should be ex pended on clerk'. when at that period the sum of 600/. only was necessary. The House was bound to save to the country every single shilling they could, and he should therefore propow that instead of 6,954/. the sum of 5,8541. being thrie times the "amount of the establishment iu 179 i, should be substituted.—(Hear, hear.) Lord PALMERSTON said, that the office of Adjutant-General was quite distinct from that of Cointnotider-iti-Chief, and that the deity attendant on his office was very coosiderable. He had all the responsibility of the harper tion of recruiting, en- Wow, amid discharging suld.ers, and also the regulating of all -icavea of absence; sod as for Making of the Year 1792, it was mere anaemic. lii fact, lie was ashamed to be awns reverting to Cad subject, to which the attention of the lioa.e hail already heti. so often called. Bat airless the !louse should think fit to go back to the system that existed in 1792, it was most absurd to think •uf regulating our expenditure accurrlii.g to that ettendurd.

If tile tolObte Lord was not content with an coita lblisliment three times as great us that of 1791, he really did not know ahat would satisfy him.

Fur a Coon/mitre appointed to in. vestigate the matter, not a hostile one, selected from his (Mr. Bentieltio side of the House, but one chosen by the Right Hon. Gentleman himself, a pocked and garbled Committee, had actually re commended that we should adopt the standard of 1793 —( Hear, hear, hear.)—His Honourable Foiend (Mr. Hume) then did not go so far, he merely to approximate it. The question then came to this—Will the House of Commons cotne to a resolution not to redoce one single shil ling at all ?—(H e ar, hear.)—lf they do, why then there is but one opin that every honest man must entertain of the character and conduct of that Hoinie.—(Cheers.) Mr. JOHN SMITH wished to remark that au lion. Baronet was at present in possession of a pen sion of 468/. a year, although he held a most lucrative situation in Trinidad. He had pnt this question before, hut was slot able to obtain an an swer. He was quite at a loss to know how the enjoyment of a pension, and the possession of a lu crative office by the same person, could be recon ciled on any principle of justice.— f Hear, hear.) Lord ['Amami-cox s.iid that was a matter which related to estimates that had not been yet laid be fore the House. Sir R. Cover, the Hon. Bart. al luded to, held, in 1808, an office, which was abolish. ed, in consequence of which the pension was grunted to him. The gallery was then cleared for a division.

The expenses of this office are very considerable, in addition to which a lithographic press has been iatro dueed, which is employed in the service of both Houses of Parliament. The total eharge of the office is 3,2441.; the lithographic press stands is about 1,043!.; No that, is moist of fact, 4,1011. is the amorist of the expenses of the office. Mr. HOME denied the accuracy of the Noble Lord's statement. He was well aware of the imporleat adtaireaget resnitisg from the lithographic press. Bet admittlog it all, still be must say that the estimate now proposed was mach ton extensive. Lord PALMERSTON explained. Colonel DAVI ES observed, that now as Itbops were in the balrit of marching but once a year, • Qoartennaster- General appeared to be almost quite unnecessary. Colonel FRENCH said, it would be quite impossible to effect • greater retrenchment than bad been already done it the permanent district establishment. Sir R. FERGUSON said, that all the embarkation of troops that takes place at present might be very well at tended by one officer. There was one circumstance, how ever, connected with this subject, to which be wished to advert, he anal the embarkation of troops to the West Indies at au improper sesame. This was • circumstance in which the carve of humanity, as well as that of the public economy, ware deeply interested. In the year 1519, the 93d regiment of Highlaaders were seal out In a most improper season, which occasioned considerable loss. He ua d ers t oo d some West Indian Planters had remonstrated against this conduct, and he trusted the Government would, in future, be more particular. Lord PALMERSTON admitted the stateliest of the Hon. and Gallant General was correct. The regimeat to whieb he alleded did, no doubt, go out to the West ladies'. at as imps pee seams, but that was more • matter of ne cessity thou of elisior, and also the severities they midland did not patted sae much from the time they west out as froni the very unhealthy seams.
