There was no person .kgraded enough to accept of such a ■itua. hue, but what would abuse the office with which he was inithsted, and that was an objection which preeseel particularly against Ibis Society. He felt sur prise almost rising to indignation at is, attempt to institute a comparison between this Society and others of a very different natu r. If • prosecution for felony were a matter of opinion. if it were ■ mode of recommending patties to person■ in power, there - might be some analogy.

The taking pos. stssiou of the stock et a dealer, and Aeactiog au oath from him, were the means be alluded to. He bad beard that one individual hail paid SM. to prevent a prosecution ; the House would in that instance see the power of this So. cirty. The object of the Societies in 1192 was to oppose she demoetat•eal principles then prevaleut; this Society also professed to euenurage literary men in engage in the labour of dispelling the illusions which were now abroad. He had net seen navy publications emanating from this So. defy eteepting indictments, which might be a very powerful mode of dispelling illminina, bet of other literary perform ances of theirs be had seen twee. fie besought the House In consider that should counter-essocialions be formed, it would be imnorolti;e to find a proper Grand Jury to find a 1011, se a Petty .Ivry to by the cause.

He believed it was true dist some of die bills preferred by the Society were thrown out by one Grated Jury, nu what grounds he was ignorant, although for the same publication true bills had been found by other Grand Juries. As far as the legality of the Society was is, question, hr could see no resins to say that it was ass illegal Asauciation, bid for those who thought otherwise a competent tribunal was open to try the question. He could slot agree with the ressiniisig that because an individual Ind subscribed his money to the foods of this Associates, he was therefore incompetent to he an •kul. He had never heard it objected to a juryman In the country shot he belonged to a Society fur prosecutesig felons. Fur these reasons be should oppose the motion. Mr. BROUGHAM said, be should just trouble the House with a few remarks en what had fillets from the Henuur able and Learned Gentleman, laying out of his consi deration all that had been said respecting Ike Society for the Suppression of Vice, which he considered had within to do with the present question, the objects uf the two Societies being so very differeut. As to the Assoeintion for prosecuting felons, how could any ita proper feeling be mixed up with • prosecution for a bar glary, though smelt feelings must interfere when it was • 'prosecution foe a political uffenee. Political offences, sod ofiencea Rennet the established religion, were peculiarly improper to be prosecuted by • ioeiety, as party feelings must be engendered, and the materials out of which Jones noel Judges were formed would feel the pernicious iuflueaer, suit, as his Learned Primed (Mr. Denman) had oboe-med, e•unter-aseadatione would be formed, sod the flowing or suck orposate streams Hilo the jury -box would teed to poison jostiee so its very source. The Hon. and Idarued Gentleman (the Attorney. General) said, be did on see bow the Members of the Amsetation were disqualified from anima' as jiirmsuen, but he had the authority of the Court of King'a Bench for answering that doubt ; the Court had ad. mined it as • ground of challenge to • juryman, sod had, is coaseqecesee, admitted that • person belonging to ibis Society was unfit to be • jurymen. Could any man doubt that seek would be the opinion of the Court of King's Bench? Gold it be doubted that if he sub scribed his mosey he wee unit le prosecute, sad that if he prosecuted, he was unfit to sit as Judge?' He objected t• this Society, that whether Ibis florid, was jobbing or Am ioterested, honest or dishostert, yet they were arrayed no use side of the question, nod no offences of the party whose side they repassed would be touched by them. They had their • reormletoo to smite oe Grand and Petty Juries; they bad their local and general talloence; nod in the last resort, if a cause were carried iglu the House of Lords by writ of error, they had there four, or live, mosciates ready to meet and give eherk-mate immediately. We objected to the Society on Cite growed that in cuontry places it would be 'impossible to procure an unbiassed Jury, if my Lord Sach em-Om, or the Duke of So-and-So. tieing is the weigleboore hood, were hoover to be association. As to the strict lega lity of the Society, he had before said, and be new trunk' repeal it, that as the law was understood to be, and as it was practised for many year. past, there was not any thing against law its the constitution of the Association, but the raischi eeeee exercise of a legal right was exactly tint sort of case which called for parliamentary inteiference. That the Society had acted illegally, sum dead, appeared from their own account. He would grant that it ass tegal, for no individeel to Mika though net personally injured, be would greet that it was legal fur a cumbination to do so, but it wee Not Istel for . the cumbinetion to use the process of the Mw .44 Wm rens, catering into the shop of • peaceable enema and saying, " If you will nut agree to the terms which I im pose un ypp I will been you indicted." This he would my was illegal, and they had done it; thus if the party would sot make a promise to sell no more of the work, or rue fused to testify his repentance; or if he refused to 01 1 11 .1. sent to that which the law had empowered any one to Op mated of him, tied which could not be done without Dreamy. if lie errand this In one who entered his shop more like a cypher then as officer of justice, " Then," say they," you • must take the consequence of an indictment of three or (ow hundred todividuals, supported by a *tome purse of wealthy individual'', backed by Peers Spiritual end Temporal, Cabi net AI MINIM and pensons looking up to them fur patrollers'. and th • is the risk to which you expose yourself if you will teal Rive op your property un oath."—(Hear, heetr.)---' " If Ulm be law," continued the Learued Gentlest's., " out so have I reed it. If this be the Constitution under which. we live, not so have I understood it." It' this were a So ciety to beenteuraged, then never was an Associatioa pot, diem by the strung arm of the law, which, in his opinion, • deserved more reprohnion—which caused more lemur to good and wise men " than this Consiitntiunal Asseciatimei. commonly k 'intro hy the name of the 064 e-siren Gang." 2-• He regretted that very good mem, fur whom he entertained high respect, had, in his opiniou, been drawn in Dimwit- tingly to heroine Members of this Society. The subordinate agents of this Society would be found to he " Viceroys over them," and ell the power of the Society would he in the bawls of those agents. The Hon. Member for Bramber said *unsettling about plotting down calumny on both aides; but it so happened that nhisough there was a rich harvest, they had only mowed down one side. He (Mr. Brougham) had been informed that one of the eases selected fur prosecution was an indecent caricature of his Majesty, but which was only a parody of one on her Majesty to the full as indecent; yet no notice was taken of that, though there was this difference, that one was a caricature of • Lady, and the .ether of a Gentlemen ; y 4 t one was untouched, whilst a person was iu prison for having peithshed the other. He must say that the pros hail use one side teemed with the most dial uning enangoies, not one uf which were noticed by the Society, .whiint the viols of its wrath were pour. ed out unceasingly on the opposite side. These were his reasons fur disapproving (hie Amociat ion, and if any thing could bane increased hie abhorrence uf it, it would be the port of defence which had been set up. The SOLICITOR.GEN ERA L contended that the opi nion of Judge Ashburn, taken in its fair sense, was in favour of the Society. He remembered a prosecution of the Society for the Suppression of Vice, There the present Lord Erskine was Counsel for the prosecution, which was defended by a Mr. Kidd, who attacked the legality of the Society, which was Mlle's up most warmly by Mr. Erskine, who defended its legality, end it was well known that he was the friend of the liberty of the press. The present Society was a law. ful nue fur the suppression of libels, and they could sot step one inch without the stamp of • Grand /wry. He was I willing to admit that this Society, like all other Societies, required to be 'Welled. diet they dill not go further than the law allowed • sod if they wen further than they ought, he would be the Gist moons to step forward to proven theni. Relative to the Sperm: Juries, it was not a elects 00000 of the Court of King's Benet', as the order wait granted by the con sent sir the Society. He contended, that it was not with as ' importer or a mercenary view the Society was entered into, i but for the meat lendable permtes, the protection of IM Government from geasidaluus libels.

The comparison of the Society to that of the Suppression of Vice, was uut iu point; and his Hon. mid Learned Friend (the Soliestor-General), when he elated that case of she let ter Society, in which Lord Erskine was counsel for the pro secution, ought not to hart forgot to state, that bard Erskine threw up his brief oil the occasion. He well knew that all Societies who employed spies or common hammers were bad, for there was something iii the nature of au Wormer that was repugnant to the feeliogs of free men, and particularly so when the very foundatom of the Society was to tell the Attorney-General he did oat do his duty. It would be better fur them to address the Crown to auspead the fonetione of the Attormy-Geneeal, or to cause Lim to be more quick its his movement, than to countenance rich a self-constitisted Society.

It appeared that his Honourable and Learned Friend, the Solicitor General, was retained by the Society, mad had brought every thing into the House but hie brief, and the time would come when he waned find that he was only partially imtructed. He felt, however, strongly, that the motion of Isis Hon.

Mr. DENMAN explained. Mr. S. C. WHITBREAD shortly replied, and said, after what hail plumed &arise the dullest/604mi, it was 1101 his wish to take the seers of the House nn the motion.

It will he recollected that we some shout time since noticed the case of a cotninercial genilenisrs of the name of PSEL, who bud been a !mg time established in business at Leghorn, and isbo Wit during the recent disturbances in Italy commanded to leave Leghorn ut a few hours' notice. This cur consistence war noticed last night iu the House of Commons by Mr. PSIL, who is a relative of the gentlemsn alluded to, and who now inquired wise- Alter his Majesty's M.nisters had ascertained from the Tuscan Government the cause of Mr. PEEL'S, expuleitm from Leghorn. To this the Alarqu.s of LONDoNDRILRY replied, tltit no cause for such ea proceeding had been as yet assigned by the Go 'velment of Tuscany, but that upon the reoresen- Wilms of Lord BURGIIERSII the order fur Al , . Piet's expulsion had been rescinded. The Noble Marquis further intimated his belief that the Tus can Government had been influenced by the mats volenee of some clerk who had been discharged front Mr. PEEL'S office, and who sought the sonde Of private accusation as a means of gratifying Ins vin-, dictive feelings. He also admitted that Mr. Past '5 . character stood too high to be affected by any charge» which could be preferred against him fsoin such 11. quarter. What an admirable lemons this occurrence offers to those who would uphold or pursue the principle of arbitrary government ! here is a ;tea.. tleinan bearing a diameter esteemed to be above reproach, yet upon a charge privately made against him by a discharged clerk, or perhaps in conse quence 1:f an anonymous communication, he is driven front the seat of his business, exposed to the dangers and losses of a government persecu tion, and subjected to irretrievable ruin, so far as that business is concerned, had he not the giant fortuue to be related to a member of the British Privy Council, and an expectant member it the Cabinet. The power esercised in this paitictiCie by the Government of Ttisciny differs in tie re spect from that which the British Cabinet possesses with reference tool' foreigners, and olterever poser exists without control it is exposed to the danger* of being exercised with partiality, caprice, and in justice. Whitt Security can we have here that the British Garernmeni, in dispensing the authority granted to the Cabinet ity Parliament under the Alien Act, may not abuse that authority iu the same manner, and under the same influence as we find the Tuscan Cabinet acting ?
