Mr. Batkuinei brought up the Report of the :Very Estunetro. Mr. hoar Es regretted to Fuld by the Estimates that the allowance• to wourided ()Ricers in Liman ~ did not equal that O'6II:AAA} , circumganced officers in the army. Some of that moat us e f u l o r d er o f of.. ficeur PUrsers could be fairly denOminated of& 'errs), were, after serving 10 or I t years. without allowance unde• these circbmstances. They lately . received a trifling half-pay of 3s. per day, an al. lowance not by any means equivalent to that of other officers of either army or navy. He hoped' the subject would meet in future that attention it demanded. Mr. CROKE(' thought the Hon. Gentleman's, speech shewed that he was very little a friend to the interests of the travy. mud perfectly ianonnit of the facts h e a ff ecte d t o state. Th e ti me (or answer ing the questions agitated by the Hon. Member should have heen when the House went into *Com mittee. There was no preference giveu to the officers of the army over those of the gravy. With res;:ect to the half-pay of the araly, lie would admit lieuten.tnt-Colonels, who were considered equals in rank to Post-Captains. received, in 1614, sixpence more than the young Post-Captains ; but it was equally certain these young Post-Cap tains, after three years service, received rank and par equal to full Colonels iu the army. without see ing our day's service during that three years, whilst these Lieut.-Colonels remained ~ tatirmary ever billet. The Pursers had received this triffug 1011-pay as a great boor:, and it had been with considerable hesitation udopted, or rather sanctioned by the Committee of Finance. who considered the expense rather too serious to be endured. Next came the case of the Primer's Clerks in the Hots. Gentleman's speech, but who were only to be found in that spee;:ls, as in point of fact no such officers existed. BetUre the I Inn. Gentleman dealt in imputation. it would be well if he procured if:formation as to what had been dune fur the hanetit of the navy by the present Board of Admiralty. If he did. lie would find, that more important and beneficial re gestations had been crowded into the space of the last six or seven years, than had been effected. fur V) or , 25 years, during the existence of former Nava; Administrations. On those Administrations he meant nut to cast any reflection—they were oc cupied with business counected with a most exten- Sive war—anal could not pursue those details, which subsequent circumstances enabled him and his col leagues to devote their attention to. Mr. I'IOKEY conceived, that the Min. Gentle- M ass who had just vpoken, had greatly miscon ceived what had fallen from his Hine Friend. lie thought there aught to he a complete equalization between the pension% granted to the army and the navy. If it hail not been for the latter, the former probably never would hive arrived at that pinnacle of fame to which their exert• s had raised diem. The many victories which they had übtansed, and particularly the last great victory, so honourable to the Duke of Wellington and his breve troops, would not probably h.ve been achieved, had lint the prowess of the navy pointed out to them the road to conquest. Surely those brave men, who had fought under Nelson, Donceri, Exmouth, anal a long list of heroes, ought not to be neglect ed. Ile would call to the attelition of the [louse, the gallant exploit performed by his Hon. :lead , the Member for Glamorgan, and a handful of %Parnell, in Canada. which had been the theme of praise- in that House, and he was sure it was quite unnecessery forlion to advert to the glorious and successful attack on Algiers. Bat. independeut of their active exertions, the House could not forget those dreary and cheerless blockades which had been kept up by the navy, for weeks and months, eery he might say. for years. Having acted, through a long war, with the roost undaunt ed courage, he conceived that those brave men ought not to receive leas, as a reward for their glo r• conduct, thau was granted to their brethren ni the army. . rived of an opportunity of delivering his melds on that occasion. lint he had a right to speak on the bringing up of the Report—and that right he would exercise, in spite of the high tone assumed by the Honourable Secretory.— He sh o uld, Sevi ! ion atter Session, draw the attention of the House to thy^ situation of those. grounded officers, whose cases, he thought, ought to ktf: no ticed. One of these, that of an officer, who had had -term; of. his limb,. end also his eye. culiarly worthy of attention. Though drearlfiii!!.. *outdated. he only received a pension for the of a limb, and the reason assioted for not I More was i that he was iii tin eenwicii Hospital but this, lie did not think, should preclude hot. Irons receiving something like a recompense for many wound.. He stated some cases of great iu equality in the system of remuneration to olliesas who .had received wounds, and complained that Midshiptnest did not hold their proper station in the navy ? Mr. CROKER thought it would be much more convenient if the Hon. Member would postpone his budget of grievances until the House had an optiCrtsiiiity of examining them with attention in a Committee. If such an opportunity were offered, lie should gladly embrace it, and cuter with the Hun. Gentleman into the merits of any individual case. The Resolution was then read and agreed to. The Clerk having read the Resolution of the Committee for granting a recompetice to the High Bailiff of Westminster, The Cii.sucekt.oa of the EXCHEQUER proposed, that the second reading of this Resolution should be postponed till to-morrow fortnight. On the suggestion of Mv..BANKES, Monday, the pith of April, was substituted, and agreed to. BUILDING OF CHURCHES. Mr. BROUDLN brought up the Report of the Committee, granting Exoliequer Bills to the amount of one million, to be applied to the build isitt_o of Churches. Mr. ANTHONY BROWNE expressed a wish that the plover of removing Curates might not be ve.ted solely in the Bishops of the diocese, hut that the parishioners aright have some influence in removing clergymeu, with whose conduct they were tats_ pleased. The cliAttcEt.t.ott of the EXCHEQUER thought it expedient to delay the con.ideration of such minute questions for aCo ttttt *litre. A. cording to the laws now existing, the Rector had no i.ower of removing Curates who had been lieeussri Foy the Bishop. and every Curate ought to be licensed. A Rector, however, having a number of Curates ut der Imo, appointed to ditfereist parishes, might remove them from wee to another ; but that power, by the measure now proposed, would be imittiectl, so that every Curate should have a kind of perm:t neut connection with his particular chapel. Mr. CRA NT should be very happy to have the provisions of this measure exte.nled to where !wishes were of such enormous size, as t. preclude the possibility of having all the parts:nom:is uccountnadated within one plate of worship. The CUANCEI.I.OR of the EXCHEQUER assures h:t. Hats. Friend, that there existed no unwilling. IItFS on the part of Ministers to recommend to Psi. hutment the extension of any wrosnre for rpiritual ittstrut bout to the north of the island W111..%1 MUS intended for the south.

This, however, he loud l op: stated. There was no intention of I:mitiow; thro grant; the Commis:Umbers had the power of odor& mg assistance in all cases ; but he had expressed 311 apprehension that the grunt by Parliament won Ii not be productive of great practical good, wit:l,: the parishioners were ounterous, unless the paiislies were to exert themselves. ,Jr. WlLnEaroece expressed his decided ao probation of the proposed measure, told felt flux I the public money could not be more isriditah: 1 employed than iu diffusing spiritual iolormatom. 1 111. i SAYINGS HANKS.

Wheit the Noble Lord thought proper, in his view of the case, to charge the Judge with partiality, he ought to have reflected a little out his own situation, and thought, whether he himself might nut hose had sou undue hies against the Realer f his : previous `tliseussious with the Magistrates. Of the charge of the Learned Judge on the trial, alt he would sly war this, that if he could presume to give • prink opinion out the law therein laid demo, it would be, that it was not put strong enough as against the Noble Lord's propoeitiosi.—(/leer, lieur.)—The question was, whether Magstrates lead under the 3 let of the King, a right to cutter gaols fOr the purpose of visiting prisoners Ileitsineul there 011 charges or treason. The common gaols were, both by the statute and common law, the gaols of the King for the benefit of the State. In the reign of Edward 111. and Henry VII. statutes hid been passed on this subject, its which the prison* were set forth es " the King's pole." and where the Sheriffs were appointed as responsible to the King for the safe custody of his prisoners. It would be strange than if the Magistrates could. by pew, step tool interfere with this responsibility—see what the consequence of such interference might be. Times lead heel' when great differences of °pluton were held among the higher classet on political topics, on disputed successions, and other weighty points.. Suppose, on such ace occasion, that • Magi strate were to demand this right from the Sheriff, and exercise it fur any purpose he might think lit, would this ant beat dawn all the guards provided by the Crown for " the safe and close vissiody" of the priqmer ?—( /fear, hear, hear dented the constructium put by the Noble Lord on the words " safe roil close custody." There was a strong and a marked distinction letwevii the words — and 16004 u, ill &ruin ! , up the warrants tel commitment, attended to thin J . :stoat:l imp, for, in the Very car in question, some of the warrants only tbvistra tile" custody, while others had the word " cla>r" Lord FOI.KSTONE—" True; but all the war routs were dated sops the same day, and draws, op to the some hand-writing." The A iroitsk.lt- GENLILAt. observed, unit that mattered 110iiiilig to the tog iiiii rid, fur the distinc tion was reerviii.ed, be the dale of the win-Loos on one or many days. The ovule in which the Crws; could exercise ate potter fur the &trillion of per sons antler charges of treason, ea* clearly made out in the statutes which regulated the form of tii.il of such persons. Before the Act of %I'tlliatu, ua pei son (not even their Counsel) could gain adini.tasice to these persons, except by ass order from the Se cretary of State or the Sheriff; but by that Act it was oidered that Colonel should have all rrasoip nide access to them, for the purpose of receiving instructions for their defence, lint aunt a word wits said as to this privilege for Nlagistrates; and if the Act of the 3 tst of the King conferred this right, it ought not to be suffered to remain, for it went in the very teeth of the old law, which gave the l tea power of detaining in safe and close custody par ticul,ir stste prisoners. The Noble Lord's Bill, so fir hour brill intended to remove pianist s , was, tact, to create them, and impair the 'prerogative of the Crown. It was to throw open the prisons, where persons fur offences agaiust the State were confined, and at otter to destroy the prerogative of the Crown and the responsibility of the Sheriff on the subject of their safe and close custody. There was un doubt that for the worn,' regulation of the pinion, for whitewashing it, and keeping it in due repair. the Magistrates lied a right of admission, but certainly not to the extent and for the purpose claimed by the Noble Lord, who, however. it ought to he remembered, was actually offered by the gaoler the privilege for which lie contesided. The gaoler told the Noble Lord he may see the pri 'osiers for whom he inquired, provided he re tit riczed his conversation to inquiries into their treat. intent, and saw them in the gaoler's presence. The Noble Lord acceded to this proposition, and then, on a sudden, induced the gaoler to give him a refusal, by reminding him, that ill the proffered admission he wee contravening the orders he had front the Se cretary of State. —(!/era).—lt was clear, then, that the object of the Noble Lord, in going to the pri son, was not to exercise a right of superintendence over its inana4ernent as a Nlagistrute, but to assert one in direct upposit ~,,, to the 'prerogative of the Crown. He would at ooce object to the Noble Lord's bon, pis being unnecessary, mist burly destructive of one of the best guards which ilw State had over its prisoners. This was die first period in winch such a right as that asserted by the Noble Lord had ever breu started, and he im b ued the 'louse would set it at rest for the fu ture.-1 I lent.) Mr. S. 'imams said he would not touch on the legal points of the question, hut would continue himself to a brief examination of the facto out of which it rose. The Noble Lord had, as a Magi*. trate, demanded a right of admission to particular prisoner- its a county gaol ; lie was refused, and had in consequence inducted the gaoler fur this refusal. On the trial the Noble Lord'sductrine was declared wrung, and the gaoler's right. But then it seemed the Judge was grsosly partial; but was the Prosecutor recta, is curie ?--(lledr. • hear. j The Noble Lund was one of the Magistrates who Itissoirsi the gaoler, and actually punished hint by surpeutlinz tuns from his situutiou before he was the met, aileTtiim.—. fight haul GI i r elveractr r, county looked upon him as their servant, mail sus.

Tlw question Wat 4 altogether on the existence of a right, mid cloth, is t be misconstrued into any thing like a per-Dual fceling towards the gaoler.
