His Lordship would not trouble the House at any length ; but he believed the reasons urged he the petitioners would, if Investigated by their Lordships, be sufficient to'revent the passing of the Bill, and he thought it right to remind their Lordships that the Bill had been rejected last session. His Lord ship then moved that the petition be referred to the Committee which would sit upon the subject. Lord DACRE said the line of road which had been proposed was entirely changed, and he thought the objections to the present line entirely visionary.

But, whatever might be the Report of the Com mittee, he would ask the House to make all notes payable where, they were issued. The Earl of LAUDERDALE said, if he did not mistake. he could prove to the Committee that the intended measure would have the effect of ileotroyino, thirty or forty banking establishments which were essential to the interests of Scotland ; and he wished, to ask the Noble Marquis whether be would persevere in his inter lion, if that tact should be established to his satisfaction ? and ha,. (Lord Lauderdale) pledged himself to establish it. The Marquis of IA NSDO'ti'N said that the Noble Earl would, have an opportunity of proposing to exclude Scotland from the operation of the Bill when it came to a second muting; hut lie, could see no reason why it should not be applied immediately .to England.

The petitioners were not desirous of in. stant emancipation, feeling that such a measure in the present state of the slaves would be attended with danger ; but they thought :hat if those who were interested in the Colonies did not linen to the warning voice of the House of Commons, and of the :Ministers of the Crown, something might be done by Parliament; and i b ey ' thought a measure a hich should take away the present protecting duty on West India sugar, and *throat{ give encouragement to the ' growth of sugar by free labour, would be one. if adopted. calculmod to produce a very beneficial effect—Laid on the table. .

The petitioners were tenants at will of considerable property in that part of the metropolis; and the mode in which they held their property was always considered to give them as much interest in it as if particular leases were granted to them. several of the petitioners had been in possession a great many years. and unless their right to compensation were estimated with reference to these circumstances, the loss which they would sustain would be considerable. The petition was laid on the table, and ordered to be referred to the Committee. THE NORTHERN LIGHT-HOUSES. Mr. HUME presented a petition from certain ship-owners of the county of Fife, who were connected with the ports in ail parts of the island, complaining of the excessive charger connected with the Northern Lights, and of the high expenses attending their atatite. tion ; and praying that the subject might be taken into considew tion, with a view to an alteration of the present system. The Hon. Member stated that it had come within his knowledge, that appli. cation had been made by a person to collect the rates at a certain port at five per cent, but that the Trinity House persisted in col lectingit at the rate of ten per cent. Sir J. YORKE could only repeat the otirrtration that he bid made on a former &zealot), as to the necessity of transferring lie • hole management of these lights to some responsible author:'.. In the present state of the free trade of the country he thoegk . among the number of improvements to be made was, that Carry care should be taken, In order that not one single penny should he abstracted from the pockets of the merchants mere than wmeahrio. luteiynecessary. The expenses of the annual dinners by the Cor. poraties of the Trinity House was excessite,and ought to be put an end to. He could net understand why the members of that Corp... reties should meet at the public expense, merely for the sahe of displaying their Moe costs and red waistcoats. Sir I. COFFIN observed (as we underAtooi) that it was the in. tendon of Government to consolidate all these lights; and that, as soon as the present leases fell in, they should all be placed under the immediate superintendence and control of the Trinity Hau.s Corporation. As to the public dinners, he would ask the gallsat Admiral whether there were any corporate bodies in England ,list did not have thus kind of dinners? All the dignity and rap a that Feint:Ted to** Lord Mayor of Louden was the result of the public dinners that he gave; and without there the office would be conwderably denials* in public estimation.
