GAME LAWS. Lord CRANBORNE, alter n short speech which wars slot audible io the gallery, moved for the ap pointment of a Committee to inquiie into the state of the Game Limp, and report their opinion thereon to the Hons.. Sir J. SEDRIGHT seconded the motion, fie conceived that and• change in ■ system of laws so did b irsi • • "' 7 V7' . 1 , • .1 r.abspeirensel, and naimjillath.t for the sfignitif . of simme, must be foe Ida beam. His rienee as a Magistrate tangist, that the vielatlan. theme leek was ultimatilltipedective of 'the•issasti tentage's?* crimes to deaf labs transgressed tbisill and that the offenders, in most eases, were ignesinsti eaCibeir having comMittad 'any moral offense , as the! 41WIltiof property in.ganie Ives not settled with so f- . fictetit distinctness.. Sir Joan Sattu.as thought that the peesent: motion must fail its is object. He remembered's Bill having been brought in by an 'eloquent/food highly popelar Member of that House, forstielst .gulation of game, Aldrich had been throe* skit. This bail not Witinsitimed the Noble Lad, who was still determined twhave • shot at the . gpssm•./atra. He disapproved of any change in themeless% which woe not, first of all, thoroughly explained , ' W. tba House, sod swaddoilspanstass nastims; z • Sir J. Vows 4114.aofpollea•a•lie • sett 1, - _ he was an eater of stoat delicious article, he wished to address a few words to the Hose ow the se bit( t of this motion. Ever since the Bill of the Hon. Member fur Code Castle had been enacted into a law, he bud never had ■ second course dish of game on his table. Hon. Members talked of shone shout town where game was to be bought ; he would be glad of some information on the subject. He trusted that the Noble Lord, if be brought in • 8 , 11, would take care to p.ovide some means for enabling the good folks who lived in town to come at • little game ; so that when their wives per. goaded them to give a dinner, and it came to the question, " Well, my dear, what shall we have ?" —(Load largliter)—they might not be utterly at • loss fur that part of the entertainment.-- (Laughter.) Sir W. W. WYNN said a few words. Mr. BANICES was sorry that his Bill had deprived the Hon. Member of a delicacy which he so much prized ; but if the Bill had proved so efficacious, it would be worth while for the House to consider how far it might be prop2r to alter it. lie Imped ed the misery• which poaching produced : but he did not think that the Noble Lord bad laid grounds sufficient for his motion. He would have had less objection to have allowed the Noble Lord to bring in a Bill, though he did not believe that the subject of the Game Laws could be put under any better regulation. There was a great outcry as to the number of persons confined in prison un der the Game Laws. It was possible, indeed, to repeal the laws under which they were confined, and so take •way the offence ; it was possible to do the same with respect to forgery. But what was to become of the property of the country in the lat ter case? What was to become of the properly of game in the former case—that source of plea►ure •ud delight to the upper claws of men iii the country, Which endeared to them the enjoyment of their estutes? He did not think that any improve. went could be made in the Game Laws. Colonel WOOD said, that be had once succeeded in getting a Committee appointed, but he fuuad the Committee so refractory, that he could not get them to accede to any of his measures. He wanted them to call witnesses and exarniue into the nature and extent of the evil compluiued of. This was refused, and the only resolution they came to was, that all game should be considered us the property of those on whose lands it might be found. With respect to the complaint of his Hon. Friend be hind him, that he could procure no game, lie sus pected that his Hon. Friend was nut as much in the confidence of the poulterers and others who supplied the metropolis with game as lie himself was. He could get as many roasts as lie wanted at any time, and if the Honourable Member would give them a dinner, he would undertake to supply the second course. As to the subject of the Came Laws, he thought that the Act of Geo. 11. should be repealed, and the sale of game be legalized as be fore, and then it should be lawful for all persists to sell game who were legally authorised to kill it. He would have the distinction dune away between poor and rich. No Geutleman ought to take out his unqualified guests who might come to visit him to kill game, while he would incarcerate a poor man for doing the sante thing. He would have the certificate raised from 31. 10s. to 51. ss. and allow any one so qualified to kill it. Ile thought it wrong that families in town should furnish them selves with poached game front poulterers, when, if they caught any poachers on their estates in the country, they were ready enough to enforce the greatest severities of the law upon thew. Ile dis ' approved of the practice of Gentlemen in ex changing surplus quantities of game with their poulterers for other coustnodities. He thought that many parts of the system wanted alteration, and therefore lie would vote fur the motion. Mr. Dovetail said a few words against legalising the sale of game. Sir C. Busiest. objected to converting the land ed gentlemsu into ■ chaptnan of game raised at his tenant's expense. He thought it would be mis chievous to deprive the landed interest of their only solace and comfort in these times of agricultural distress, 14 taking away from them the protection of the Game Laws. He thought it impossible that a laudlord could be expected to behave so inhospi tably to his guests as to demand to see their quali fications fur killing game before lie would let them accompany him Ott a shouting patty. Air. Locanaier said, that the first question to be determined was to whom the properly of game should belong. lie deprecated any measure fur reducing the country gentleman to mercantile spe culations in game. Ile mentioned the criminality of poachers to be upon a footing with the offence of stealing u sheep or a cow, for the extermation of which offence, as aunty wretched sophistries would be found out as there were now for poach ing, if the law would allow them to bs urged. Upon the whole, his humble opinion is this, that no set of men could be put on a Committee who would agree. There is another argument, which is rather a popular one, lie meant the great metes • r ..7 - .4,11, • .- -.., 3 - 1 . - 1 • *.• • ' . . •. ../Z. .. . 74 11 : . 1•Z . .. . • * • • ...... • • .

Lord LOWTHER opposed the motion, as he thought no advantageous results could mime from the iuquiry.

For the Motion Agairut it rid ` 4/.l'r raw Majority against the Motion 3t d 41 64 • ma HUSBANDRY HORSE TAX. ws • - 1 . Mr. CukwaN rose to cull the intention of the House to this question, which he considered of great importance ; although it would not go the whole way to remove the distresses of the farmer, still it would he a great and essential boon, and there never was a time when it was more necessare to •hew a disposition to relieve them. The nature of this tax is highly objectionable ; you might as well impose a tits on the loom, the shuttle, the plough, or any other implement of husbandry. Tie tax on the cultivation of 50 acres is upwards of five, and he requested the Noble Lord (Castle reagh),. if the Chancellor of the Escht pier turns a de.rf ear to him, would attend to the 'Subject.— lie would state one of many casts lie might do. One poor farmer, who was a great fox-hunter, on going to market, was met by a fox in full chase. he immediately forgot his purpose, and tot recol lecting the surcharge, laid down his packs mot set alter the fox.—/Hear, hear, heur-j—The circumstance came to the ears of air informer, and the poor farmer was fined for his sport. This was • great hardship, but lie might cite litany similar. There was no subject to which the House were more imper a tive called on to turn their attention than the distresses of the farmer. The Monarchs (l of Europe are the great corn merelrahts at present, and it' we were unfortunately again to open our port., the king of Denmark would iimuediatety pour in an immetae quantity of corn, sod lie should like to know whether lie would take hard ware or pottery in exchange ? There is another subject to which he wished to allode—he meant the subject of surcharge. It • has been (Build of the greatest advantage to apply metallic springs to • carts, and yet, if this is dour; he is subject to the tux of a gig. It surely never could have been in the contemplation of the Legislature to impoje such restrictions on labour. lie, therefore, called on the Right fun. Gentleman to snake some re duction in• all the taxes on the agriculturist, which would benefit all classes, and a compensation mieht be made by imposing au lucerne tax. • The Hon. Gentleman then alluded to the taxes otturalt, salt. soap, stud leather, which might be - reduced. It would afford the greatest possible relief to all classes, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer might make up the amount of the revenue in other manner less oppressive to the poor. He thought lie might begin with giving this boon to the farmer. Ile begged pardou for intruding on the time of the House, and concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill to repeal the aStli and 52i4 of George 111. and 2d of George IV. Sir W. W. WYNN regretted the Hon. Gentleman hail not postponed his motion to some future period. lie should however give it his support. Sir C. Buaaett. observed, that this lox operated most cruelly on the farmer. In several parts of the country oxeu cannot be employed oa the road., anal therefore great numbers of horses must be employed ; and, under all the circumstances, as it seems the wish of the House that the motion should be postponed until the Report of the Agricultural Committee is received, he hoped his lion. Friend would comers!. flowerer, should he press it to a division, he should ordain!, vote for it. Mr. DAVENPORT said a few words in favour cf the motion. Mr. BENF.TT (of Wiltshire) observi d that hr should 11. e every exertion to relieve tt.e burdens of the fmnier, slid should of course support the pre sent 'notion. An Minoruable Member under the gallery sup ported the motion in a few observattoi.s. The CitAlicELLoit of the ERGO RQU Kit wished the motion should be withdrawn until the Report of the Con tttttt tee were received. if nut, he should feel himself bound to oppose it. dis t' s r. o l f ..a .
