Their Lordship. then, pennant to the ()tiler of the Day, resolved into a Committee of Privileges, arty Lord WaLM.gliain having taken the Chair, C vet were further heard with respell to the claim of Lady 11. Estaguiald tO the above Peerage Mr. Adam was finally heard on the part of the Noble Claim ant. Ha observations principally referred to the pna i f of th e C ainiant's pedigree, which be tbougl.t r.tablished in evidence in such a way, as, together wain what had transpired in the roam of the discussion, would be sulbeient,he their Lordship; to come to a favourable concliwhin with v , ret to the validity of Lady Henry Filer-it'd', claim, and make such a Report to His Majesty as may incline the Sovereign to a correspondent mercies of his floral Prerogative ; and, on which part of the fuidee, it did not behove him to offer any observe! ion,. Mr. Komilly then shortie addressed their Lordships, with respeA to the claim of Sir Thomas Windsor Hutt!oche, Be , t. whose individual claim had but lately accrued, in c insequence of which, he had net the opportunity of putting in his part of tie stridence earlier 'lke pedigree of his Client, down to a certain period, WPII necessarily proved On the part of I.aity H. Fitagerald, there were two frees which Sir Traumas bad to prove in evidence before their Lordships :—..First, the marriage of his father, Sir Henry, w.th the Lady, mother to the Claim ant.--And, secondly, the neatiwary circumstance of his own birth. They error nut then prepared to offer this evidence, but shortly would be able to du so. Mr. Attorney General addressed their Lordships en the pert of the Crown. With rearect to the evil !WM w hied had been adduced, there weresume parte of it, on which he had not yet an opportunity of matursly cmotieriog II- was therefore ill prepared to undertakeers address the Committee opus, it at the present moment. He hoped that wbe Weir Lordships in. - t next in the C ..... miner, amid.: they farther consider of the subject, that he should then be prepared.

The Bills upon the Table wet: forwarded in their respeelive r a ges Among those—the Additional forage Rat Bill, and the New Loan tin,aryrrdly pa sit the Committee, and were tenoned to the House. Mr. Johnstone, from the Iritti Secretary of State's Office, Pre sented an Account of the number of Notes issued by .he Ges vemor and Company of the &lilt of Ireland, from J inumy 1804 to February 180 S inclusive.4Ordered to lie on the Table. • PEERS OF IRELAND. The LORD CHANCELLOR the Wool sack, and' Sailed their Lord:lips attention to the circumstance of the Petitions of several Peers of Ireland, touching their Rights to Vote at the Elec ' lion of Peers to sit in the United Parliament for Ireland, &c. being before the House, and by• an Order referred to the Committee of Privily ges. Tilde Petitions; when under consideration, met acid the se rious attention of their Lordships, particularly upon two consideration; connected with the subjod ; the first of these wai the circumstance that some of the patentsiof the petitioning Peers were, before Ireland was acknowledged an independent kingdom, by the ad of Int under the great seal of Great Britain, and not of Ireland; and, secondly, that since that period'otbers were in the same predicament. It would be matter, therefore, for the serious consider atiOu of their Lordships, haw far such circumstances went to affed the rights of elation on the part of the petitiosing Pers. While on his legs, he should suggest the propriety of taking an opportunity to deter the consideration of these petitions, which was then fixed for Tuesday next, until the following Thursday, when their Lordships might hope to have the assistance of the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench, in the discussion. The House then adjourned till to-morrow ; when their Lordships stand summoned upon Lord King's Motion for a Committee to enquire into the Mili tary Establishments of the Country. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. Johnstone, from the Chief Secretary% Office in Ireland, presented an account of the pensions granted on the Irish Establishment, together with the dates and amounts of this same, and the lives fur which they were granted, up to the In of January, 1805. Ordered to lie on the table. M.. Bully, from the Exchequer, presented an account of the sums issued by His Majesty's command, in pinto once of addresses of that House, and not provided for by Parliament. Ordered to lie on the table. Mr. KINNAIRD pteranted several Petitions fmm the in habitant, of the towns of Perth, Stirling, and Dumfemiline, iu Systland, praydig for a repeal of the latf Corn Act, which were ordered to lie on the table He then stated, that in liny ranting there Petitions, su transmitted to him, he by U. means pledged himself to support any M•dion fur the repeal of the Bill, as he 'had yet no opportunity of making up his mind illinti the object Mr. HUSKISSON moved the order of the day fin the on mud reading of the Husbandry Horse Duty Bill, for the purpose of petting it of. A conversation then arose respecting this day on which it. should take place; at the conclusion of which, it was deter , nism.il that the second reading should at present stand for Moridas, when, should it be likely to lead In much disco...no it slight be farther postponed to some future day, Mr. S. BOURNE brought up the Sugar Drawback Doti, ; the Legacy Additional' Stamp Duty Bill; and Build@ of Man Reseime Improvement Bill, al of which woe read a first, sad ordered to bo read a second turns to-morrow. PROPERTY TAX. Mr. ALF.XANDER brought up the Report of I the Committee, on the Property Tax Bill 1 and, on the Motion that it he read u third time to-morrow, CALCIt AFT said, that be understood an Hon. Friend of his intended to deliver hia senti. merits nrxm it on the third reading, which would interfere with the understanding which prevailed ill the House, that no other business should come oif te-morrow but that relating to the Sheriff, of Mid. dlesex. After a few words from the StCNITARY at WAS and Mr. CaLatafT, k was finally agreed that the third reading should stand for to-morrow, on the understanding that it would be postponed daisy opposition should be made to it. SALT DUTY. On the Order of the Day being read for the re port of the Salt Duty Bill ; Mr. JOI - INSTO.E opposed the brin ing up of Cie Report. Ile said, that thoughis sub leel had been before fully discussed, he could not et any stage of it pass without entering his pro test against any measure fraught with such evil as he knew this to be. It was rather too much for the people of England to find that even before the pass. mg of this Bill the price of salt was already doubled upon the consumer ; but as to Scotland, he main tained it to be impossible that the tax, to its present amount, could vier be colleted. He then renewed his former objedions to the Bid, ob serving that, when the duty was last laid at the rate of tis. 6d. the bushel, the people were found so unable to pay it, that the tax was afterwards reduc ed to 4s. and he wished to know on what calcula tion it rested that those who were nut capable of paying a tax of Gs. (id. some little time since. should now be able to pay a duty amounting to Os ? After referring to the report of the Committee in the year 1801, which recommended the abolition of the Salt Dutie., and of the different bounties, the people were led to believe that the tax would be repealed, and now had the mortification to think that Perlin. went had brokvii it; word with them. Ile strongly insisted on the very severe pressure of the tax in Scotland and Ireland, because, in those countries, where a great portion of the food of the poor cow bested in vegetables, such as potatoes, greens, &c. they were obliged to use a greater quantity of salt than those wh • fed upon animal food, in order to assist the powers of digestion. Mr. ROSE insisted, that the different bounties to which the Committee and the Honourable Gentle man alluded, on the exportation of printed linens and cottons, whale oil, refined sugar, &c. had no connetion whatever with the duties imposed upon salt. The Gentlemen who opposed this duty in the present instance, and even wished foe the repeal of all the dutie• upon salt, would fins themselves wider very great difficulty, ifthey were to propose a sub stitute which w , tild produce a revenue of 30°,0001. Lid not he liable • much greater )hjections than this wa.. lie den ed that the duty at all had any aoplica tton to the fisheries, which were 'sculpted, and stated, amongst other things, that probably, in the course of the present Session, he Loped to be enabled to ring in a Bill for the better encouragement and re gulation of the fisheries. is Mr. KENNA IR D said, that Akin the Report of the Committee of 1801 was or !ered to be reprinted, he thought there was reason to espen that it would have hen before the I louse before the Bil4shoirli be pressed forward. lie wished to remind the Hows e , that in recommending the Report of the Duty on .Salt, that Committee illus6ated the advantage s of it, by stating that all the prosperity of the Isle of Man was owing to the free exportation of salt, but since the Union, the Parliament of this country found it impossible to raise the same duties in Scot land as in England When the Union took place in 1701', there was a Salt Duty of six-pence per bUSild :in Scotland, and from that timethe 7 never paid any duty till' the year 1725, when an addition :vas pro. .posed, which it was after Wards found necessary to repeal. He contended, that the Salt Duties in Scot. `land could never be made to amount to more than 45,0001. ,st year, as there was a great chymical encedetWeen the salt produced from sea-vrater in t !rat country, and what was in England produced from springs impregnated; with rock salt, insomuch that one bushel of Liverpool salt was equal w thug bushels of Scotch salt. Mr. HUSK ISSON said, that the bounties on the fisheries were allowed from motives of national po licy, and without any reference whatever to the du ties upon salt ; they were indeed granted before there was any salt deny at all. Mr. HURST said, that the policy of Parlismeet had always been to spare, amongst the objets of taxation, as much as possible, the indisp,nsiU e ne cessaries of life, and he would give lus strtuGu: oppositio'n to a duty which was an encrease or .use third upon all articles of human sustenance, to wljJ salt was made use of. Mr. CALCRAFT said, that though he did rat wish to stop the progress of the Bill during the printing of the Report of the Committee; yet did not suppose that any attempt would hare licts made to pass the Bill through the House until the report should be before them. He said, that this wai not the time fir tit lepi•al of the existing duties, but he contended that the additi ,n of to a tax, the report of which was already promised, left but a very distant hope of that promise being ever accomplished. He ohjeded to a mea•ure of ruch importance being brought I,,rwar.l in the absence of the Minister. He had nut heard that the Right Honourable Gentleman, 11..wever he might have been galled, was ill, or laid up, in con sequence of the fatigues of last night. When Majesty's servants thought proper to have recourse to severe taxes of this kind, he thought it was fail time to endeavour to find a substitute for them in the retrenchments, which were so loudly called for n the public expenditure. An Hat. Gentleman, of high authority, had lately stated, that a saving of one-third 'might be made in the naval expenditure, which was now 1a,000,0001. auituelly ; and it they could retrench evil' one thirteenth part of it, the peisple of the country might be saved souse of the hardships to which they were now suhjeded. Should this tax be adopted, the eonseqoence must be thu every taboo: iug and agricultural man in the coati try would hate to .pay a twentieth part f his in come foe the mitigate of salt iddispenifble t• t his sustenance. Mr. W. SMITH pointed nut the hardships of per sons in the country employed in the nianttfaciure of soap in a small w-ay, who used ashes instead of barilla. The pi incipal park of the profits of Czne people had been taken away by :he last duty, auJ by the present their trade w..uld be wholly annihi lated. He said it was impossible to make an ac curate estimate of the salt consumed in the cure of herrings and cod fish, as that depended much on tl.e season.. and the state of the fish at :he time, so that at one time double the quantity was rtquinad to what would be suf f icient at another. Sometimes the fish, by laying over and pressing each other, often b.•ir.g rather squeezed, and the roes and es. trails of the others and these protruded parts, r♦ quired more salt than would •be neco,,ary for whole fish, had they remained in theit natural stati, Mr. S. BOURNE said, that when it Alas ?Treed that the report. of the Committee of 1801 sitol.l be reprinted, no intention was expressed of stopping the progress of the Bill. At present, indeed, tat• ing to a certain circumstance (the combiniaino of the pressmen), it was uncertain at what time any of the papers ordered by the House could be prita. ed. He saw no great force in what Mr. Smith said of the small soap dealers, as every mailufaSuns had the option of using either wood ashes or batik, as he might think proper. Mr. I.OX thought that, as the salt produ:ed is Scotland was allowed to be inferior to that produced in England, he should like to have it ascertain-d. from the proposers of this Bill, of what propettla that inferiority consisr-A• If the tax was Oat pro- dative in Scotland, according to the consumption , it was a proof that the da WAS evaded, and ap peared a better argument for regulating, than Ia• creasing it.
