Lord CASTLEREAGH suggested the propriety of the Hon. Member's giving a notice of such a motion. IRISH GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS. Mr. V. FITZGERALD, in rising to move for the Bill, of which he bad given notice, expressed his re gret that in the present state of Ireland, and fin the impossibility of obtaining the County SurvOyors con. templated by the Act of fast Session, he should be under the necessity of consenting to its entire repeal ; the Bill for which he was about to move not contain. ing a single provision respecting the subject to which he had just alluded. It was also his intention in the Bill that he was about to submit to the House, to re. linquish the provision in the Bill of last Session, re. stricting the Grand Jury Presentments in Ireland to the Summer Assizes ; fur however decided his opinion might be on those subjects, he was not pertinacious enough to persevere, in opposition to that which ap peared to be the general sentiment. He would state shortly the provisions of the measure that he was de sirens to be allowed to introduce. All who knew any thing of the existing laws on the subject, knew ' that Grand Juries were frequently surprised into Presentments that were not necessary. He proposed, that, previously to every Assize, the intended app. cations should be submitted to the Magistrates at the Quarter Sessions. This would secure two objects— the one, a due enquiry into the expediency of every projected public work ; the other, a better attend. ance of the Magistrates at the Sessions. He also pro posed an alteration in the manner in which the appli cation was to be made. It was well known to those connected with Ireland, that every application of that nature for public money, large or small, important or insignificant, had at present no authority, except the affidavit of the individual applicant, who swore to the necessity of the work for which it was required, and to the sum necessary for its completion. The difficulty of ascertaining these facts was so great, that in 999 cases out of 1000, the affidavit was never taken; or, if t a ke n , the person by whom it was taken was almost compelled to perjure himself. It was intended to propose, that the persons applying to the Magistrates at the Quarter Sessions before the Assizes should not make a formal affidavit, bet should be liable to be examined on oath by the Magistrates on the subject. Although the Magistrates were to state their opi. Rion to the Grand Juries with respect to the applica tions made to them, that opinion was not to be con sidered as at all interfering with the authority of the Greed Jury, or affecting their decision on the ques tion. So far, indeed, from superseding the autho rity of the Grand Juries, this proposition was cal culated to emend it, as it would give them ■n oppor tunity of ascertaining the propriety of public works, to the construction of which they at ;newel hesi tated to come it, from not having the means of ob taining the necessary information respecting them. — Another great object of the proposed Bill was to in• sure a due account of the expenditure of public works after their completion. At present this en quiry was attended with no solemnity whatever. It was meant to provide that the persons who had had the superintendence of such works should be examined on oath, and in detail, before the Court of Quarter Session, and that the whole of their accounts should be liable to traverse. He earnestly deprecated the introduction into the discussion of this subject of any topic calculated to produce irritation. For himself, he would carefully abtain from any such. lie was the very last man to wish to cast any reflection on the Gentry of Ireland for the manner in which the law on •hese subjects was at present executed. That the evil existed (let the source of it be what it might) was sufficient to induce the Legislature to en deavour to provide a remedy. There was one remarkable fact which he would state, is order to show bow necessary was some reform in the mode of accounting for the money that had been granted on Grand Jury Presentments, namely, that the estimate was never found to exceed the actual expenditure, and that although on the average half a HOUSE OF COI LIONS. A reliant, presented by Sir J. M UR It AY. from Weymouth and Melon:the Regis, ugatust the Duties ou Coals carried co:sst wise. was received. Accounts were presented from the City of London, stating dirosetas of Uuclatmed Dividends, and of the produce of Coal and Wine Ditties. as applicable so the Orphan Food. Mr. N. A. TAY LOH brought up the Mary Ir-bonne Bill for allowing the Vestry to contract for a supply of Water, which was read a And time. A J'etition, presented by Mr. J. SMITH. from St. Mary Tionlootb, against the Patl li Vestry Bill, was Deceived. ST EA M - BO A TS. Oa the Order of the Day for considering the Report on the Steam-boat Bill, the further consideration was postponed ti" Friday. BANK NOTES. General GASCOIGN E gave nut ire of a motion for Friday, for &coasts of 101. notes in circulation, previous to January 7, 1817. IRISH DISTILLATION. Mr. COOPER made some observation; r , specting the fines incurred in Ireland by Illicit Distillation ; and moved for ac counts of rewards promised or paid by the Commissioners of Exci , e in Ireland to Officers for she detection and conviction of persons holding unlicensed malt t also for accounts of the ex peaces incurred, and the amount of the rewards, fur tisto years past.—Ordered. Mr. COOPER also moved for the production of an abstract of all Contracts entered into by the Postmacn•r-General in Ire land for the conveyance of the Mail is that kingdom.—Or dered. Lord FOLKESTON E presented a Petition from Inhabitants, Householden, of New bury, against clauses in the Parish Vestry Biil, and suggesting greater attention to real economy.—. O rdered to lie on the table, and to he printed. SEIZURE FOR TA/U.S. Mr. METHUEN seeing the Chancellor of the Exchequer is his place. wished to ask him a question respecting the relief proposed to the Tax on Pour-wheeled Cnrriages. He held is his hand a letter received from a most respectable constituent. which stated, that *, the Tax Collector of Chippenharn had given an order to seize the persons or the parties refusing to pay the demand made of surcharges." The question he wished to put was, *• whether the relief proposed „as ist be retrospective, and to take effectirowsApril 5. 18(7. to April 5, ISIS ?' The Chancellor of the Exchequer was wholly inaudible in the Gallery. Mr. METHUEN then said, the qtystion was so important to theindividnals so surcharged, that he trusted the Right Ho nourable Gentleman woold feel the Leccssity of giving a direct answer. The CHANCELLOR of the I lECIINUER said a few words which could not be heard in the Callerv , hut we under stand the purport was, that be believed the relief would be re trospective. Mr. (SIP:TIMES a third time endeavoured to get a sore decisive answer, hut none was given. ; lid.. • •• 'billion was annually disbursed its Ireland on these I. a oujerss, he knew but a single ibstanre of romantic virtue operant% so forcibly on its; iodividusl as to induce him to return a single farthing of that which bad been granted. He confessed that he did not an tkipate much opposition to the measare, of the de. toils of which he was - ready to afford Fiery esplanation that any Honourable Member aright require. At. though he would rather that the task of submitting it to this consideration of Parliament lied fallen on any other individual, he expressed his determination to use all possible exertion to procure its adoption by the Homo. 'Among other benefits with which it watt pregnant was this—that it would convittee the People 'felons, that their interests were got less attended to by the Legislatese of the United Empire than they formerly wore by the Parliament of their own coon ' try. lf, by the Ilia in questiop. he ehoeld be made the bumble instrument of protecting a de& frisk peasant from imposition , or of inntrihuting lit this slightest degree to the Weems a justice and *toe relit~ in his native coutilfy, bi'sbould consider hide self as simply repsid fot his anxiety on the sebjerl— The Right Honourable Gentleman concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill to provide for the moredeliberate investigation of Acrobats prometed by Gland Juries iu Ireland relative to Public Work's; and far the better accounting for Monies raised on such Presentments. Sir G. LL seconded the motion. Mr. DENIS BROWNE observed, that there wan not o.sifigle principle. in the Bill which tpte Jbt lioaourablocieetleman meant, to introdeee„ that did not.eziat in the present laws, eltheogb be ka4ibsre tainly no objection to make to any merlon? "Iklch should render those laws more clear and better Un derstood. He doubted much whether the Right Honourable Gentleman's Bill would be effective in obtaining all the objects that he hid in view. Ha regretted that the intention of -appointing County Surveyors had been relinquished. Sir HENRY PARNELL said, that three En gineers only bad been examined by the Commissioners appointed lest year to decide on the qualifications of persons applying for the situation of County Stir. 'e'er; aid the Commissioners had therefore on sup position merely decided that there could not be found a sufficient number of persons qualified for the office of Surveyor for each County. Mr. PEEL said, that be had been last year friendly to the appointment of County Sarveyors, but on. mature consideration be had seen reason to change his opinion. On this subject, he might be consider ed a disinterested witness; for Government would have had the appointment of a Surveyor fur each county. The Honourable Baronet had said, that the Commissioners decided on supposition that pare sons qualified for the Office were nut to be found.— But there had been a fair trial, and it was not till after each trial, that the Commissioners reported that they could not find any person sufficiently qua. lifted for the Office. On other grounds, he was averse to the appointment of County Surveyors; it would be difficult to prevent the appointment front degenerating into abuse. No dependance was to be placed on the certificates of persons who applied Lo be County Surveyors. Every certificate produced to the Commissioners bore on the face of it the most respectable qualifications; but the certificate was not borne out by subsequent examinations. No less than 95 persons had applied. Sir HENRY PARNELL said, it might be highly injurious to many individuals of merit who had, ape plied, that it should go out that they *ere without qualifications. Mr. PEEL said, the Commissioners had express!? stated, that many of the Geotlemen possessed very great abilities, and were perfectly qualified to exe cute solveys, but the duties of the Office were rad out and complicated, and no petsoa could be found with all the qualifications. A Gentleman, whose name we could not learn, spoke in approbation of the Bill. Mr. DENIS BROW NE explained. Mr. FITZGERALD shortly replied, when the motion was .greed to, and leave given to briog in the Bill. EDUCATION. Mr. BROUGHAM said, that sr measure of his ow the subject of Education was to tome on tn.morrow, and hoped it was, on the understanding that it would come on then. The Honourable and Learned Gentleman also made some observations on the Com missioners appointed under his Bill, which wecould, not distinctly hear. , Lord CASTLEREAGH (we endorstnod) had n• objection to the arrangement of the Hon. and Loomed, Gentleman. Mr. BROUGHAM expressed himself obliged to the Noble Lord for hiscandour. It was undoubted ly part of his measure, that at least some of the Com. missioners should be ;mid as servants of the Public,, for it would not be possible to obtain pofessional men to accept of the office without a fair remunera tion. He had left, as in former Commissions of * similar nature, the naming of the Commissioners, and the reward to be given them, to the Crown. Lord CASTLEREAGH argued, that without a fair remuneration it would not be possible to obtain the assistance of professional men ; but he thought it would,be most advisable to leave the remuneration to Parliament, who would regulate it from time to time, on witnessing the progress made by the Commis. sioners. Mr. BROUGHAM said, that he had thought it might be advisable to fit a limit to the remuneration, and it was his intention to propose 1,0001., as he un derstood the Commissioners for Naval and Military Enquiry bad received 1,5001. • year ) which be coo.
