COMMITTEES OS PRIVATE BILLS. Mr. LIT rix.ToN said, on a previous evening lie had offered some general remarks upon the conduct of Members in attending Committees, and eating on the decision of private Bills, without having attended to the previous evidence and arguments. In mak ing these remtrks, he had not directed his observations against any particular Member or Committee,' as sonic of the Newspapers re presented,but had spoken generally in condemnation of the practice. Sir I. COFFIN understood he had been personally alluded to, and begged to disclaim all personal interest in any private Bill. ST. OLAVE'S (HART-STREET) TITHE BILL. Mr. CALCRAFT rose to move the second reading of the St. ' Olaie's Tithe Bill, and in doing so, wished to make a few obser vations on a subject which he considered of material importance. He had been induced to take up the present Bill principally on ste. . ' coma of the exertions preciously made with respect to the parish of of 'St. Andrew's, Holborn. In consequence of the operation of thin Bill the tithes of that parish had been satisfactorily settled. The putrid' of St. Olive's consisted of 175 houses, and contained ' 1.912 inhabitants. Under the Common Law, houses were not tithable excepting In a rs-t of the city of London. But it was tomer:dint that they were liable under the Decree of 1535, to the , payment of 2s. 9d. in the pound. lie had advised the parishioners to allow the incumbent 1,8401. per annum, notwithstanding the property had been, a few years ago, worth but 2301., and the duty . was pertoerned by a curate at a stipend of 1001. per annum. In ad dition to those conditions, it had been proposed to allow 1,2001. a year to the future incumbents, and the proposition was referred to the censiderst ion of the Bishop of London , who considered the pro. vision as too small by 1601. Ile confessed tl:e want of the Bishop's consent was a great difficulty ; but he pledged himself. if the Bill "re permitted to be weld a second time, that the difficulty would he:errenged, or the Bill altogether dropped. His wish was, to pre vent members of the Established Church from being alienated from its intriests by such vexatious proceedings as arose out of the tithe of Leases. He would merely observe, that the Deuce of 17233 had !liver been enmlled, and sari t h erefore inoperative. The lion. Plea:her concluded by moving, that the Bill be now read a second time. Dr. PHI LLIMORE considered this was an attempt to intro duce a measure for the spoliation of public property, under the guise of a private Bill. By the 37th of Henry % 111. the tithe of Muses had been established; and though the enrolment of the Decree was disputed. inaewas a question for the decision of a Court of Law, and not fig thiconsidetation of the House. He thought If the House consented to pass the present Bill, they might next pass a Bilt6 regulate the property of any private individual, who hart. it a former period, received grants from the Crown. The Honourable Member concluded by moviug as as amendment, that the Bill he rejected. hlr. 11. SUMNER seconded the amendment. Mr. DENMAN biped the. House would not do anything to ' sanction en imps tof 2e ed. in the pound on the houses of Lon. don. Ile denied that the Decree of 1435 had recei-txl the sanction of enrolment, and the Act of the 37th of Henry VIII. had not been ineteted in the surer edition of the Statutes. In the 4th and loth of Ed card V I. commissioners had been appointed to regulate tithes, and they had made the draught of a decree, which was only not earned irtn effect ii. consequence of the death of the young King. Tent would new leive hero done if the decree of 1535 had been oorsidered es the I:,w of the land. In the reign of Charles I. the subject of tithes rt.... rcferred to the King by the clergy and citizens, which would Lever terse been done if the question had been settled under the Decree eliniler! to. In fact the enrolment of the Decree had been tried as, en ISMIC la the case between Hallam and Admits, and notwithataneieg the fin - ding of that jury, he did not coneider persors of the prescnt day as liable to be boutid by the verdict. It • was perfectly COVIpOieI.I. to try the question again. The Fire Act • was the next refined th, and took Effect after the conflagration of London. On that °erasion tie, out of 107 parishes had been bunted to the ground, and the Fire Act provided for the payment of a specific sum for a certain period. a ithout any reference whatsoevor to the tithe of 2s. Ohl. in the pound. Mr. Sergeant ONSLOW oposed the Bill.. Ile thought the : House should never Inter:ere wi th vested rights. Mr. A. BARING hoped that Gentlemen would for the future exchange some of that aeseety which they felt for the property of the Church for a desire.to keep the people within its pale. Law yers looked on such questions as the present merely as questions of property, and seemed to forget t i nt nothing was more likely to un. dermine the Church that the frequent discussions which were going On bei waen die clerpyraeli and their parishioners. The present Bill, he contended, w hit. not iia undue interference with private pro perty, for if the Beihop coeld get. 13111. more a year from the pa. rich, he would himsed hitcrfere. Ile trusted the Bill would be permitted to go through a second reading, as it might lead to sonic amicable arrangemnit between the parties; and he thought the House should always Dies eacourageinenv to such private adjust. thente. Mr. C. W. WYNN raid the question was not whether. in the • present instence, there acre a vested right or not. The real ques tion was. whether that 110-use 6110111C1 become a Court of Justice to inquire into and decide on disputes with respect to property. If • the resent Bill passed, many other parishes would petition the House, each 'eying that tit rector received only so much for a great many years, and that therefore he ought not for the future, ' under any eirrumrtaner , , to get more. It would be a manifest injus tice to act on such a principle., for it often happened that an incum ' beet succeeded in oserterneig a modus which had existed for a very long period. The prerent Bill, he contended, was a direct attack on private property, and, if allowed to go on, wouldopen the door to similar attacks onpreperty of every description. Mr. DENMAN explained. Mr. COURTENAY.eontended there was evidence that the De. eeee hid been registered, sod that, therefore, the vested right was clearly established ; he did not know on what grounds the House was called en to internee o:, the present occasion, and prevent the quexlions being decided in a ( nun of Justice. Mr. WM. SMITH thaught the present Hill not a private one. if so. it was that description of Private 13111,.in which the interest . of the public were ten times mote deeply concerned that: that of the individuals who might seem more immediately connected with it. If the stability of the Church meant nothing more than the wrmanency of its property, then, Indeed Gentlemen were, pet haps, right in opposing die Bill ; but he thought there were other and higher considerations which should influence the vote" of the House. The Hon. Member supported the Bill. Mr. Secretary PEEL said he tlid not expect to obtains more patina hearing than those Hon. Members who preceded him. He thought the confusion which prevailed during the present discus sion was easily aecounteil for; it was owing to a conviction that 'bat House was trot the proper piece for Lie May Members as ea-, N, opposed on publicgrog* A been asserted, there misted - a legal doubt — ~gas 818 wee intselati-o noise, ennied the M I/ MleMatide ninierapeent &die Se if=lerirpeeirer lOMl►ietpfach 1111relser ate the oanniatet the Banns tree net d.

COMBINATION LAWS. Mr. HUME, in presenting petitions from the Tobamonhos and *pwrights of Dublin, praying that the House might net peas any sew law upon the subject of Combinations, stated the Dublin, *ere reedy to prove that out of the whole fifty trades in Dublin, not more than three or four imlividuals had been guilty of any acts of violence. and they therefore hoped no measure might be adopted en the lepresentations of masters, until all parties were examined. The petition were referred to the Committee on the Confrinadon Uwe. BURNING WIDOWS IN INDIA: Mr. HUME said* bad another petition to present, on a sub )aernhieh had been too much neglected—the practice of widows immolating thetr.selves, in India, on the graves of their husbands. The HOW. Monter for Weymouth (Mr. F. Boehm) bad moved and °Wakened a masa of papers, which threw • great deal of ice; by them it appeared that the number sacri -sr province of Calcutta alone, had been 717 in the year IS 1820, Mg in 1321, and 614 in 11222. He would put it us thelhillega and humanity of the House, whether it was fit this is yaw so abominably atrocious should he allowed to con • •I doriesn it was acknowledged on all hands that the British Go nna. Sad the power to put an end to it at mice ? It was the level many, too, on the Continent of India, that the sup - louden of that crime would be easy, and unattended with the slighteetVerger.. Mr. Smith, the second Judge, in the paper of 1822, says it might, lens opinion, be put an end to at once without the slightest difficulty. The Chief Judge. Mr. Leyeester, says it might be abolished iq the province of Calcutta and several other districts, though not akogether; so that they had two of the highest legal authorities in that coustw . in support of the practicability of die destruction of that unchrisuan practice. It was not even teguiraid by the Hindoo religion, fur Rain Alohul Roy, a Hindoo write? of some eminence, had proved that it was not agreeable to the strict tenets of that religion. They had thus the authority if those but acquainted with India, that the practice might be abolished without danger, with the proof that it was not required by the tenets of their religion ; and he hoped that something would now be done to take away foul • stain upon the humanly and good policy of the E nglis h Government. He wohid here take leave to ask his Hon. Friend (Mr. Buxom) whether he intended to bring forward any measure an the subject., or had abandoned his purpose alto- gether. Mr. F. BUXTON said he was glad of the opportunity to state that he had not abandoned his former intention, but. was deter. mined to persevere on the first opportunity ; many circumeureas had, however, operated this Session to deter him from introdudog the subject—the Burmese war—the defection of a portion of tie native troops, which had been as usual exaggerated into an evens of importance, besides other consideratimis which might have placid him under the situation of having it imputed to him that he was bringing forward his measures at a very unseasoned*, puled. as was determined, however, to introduce the guidon early s•pt Session, for he was more than ever convinced of• its . There were not, as his Hon. Friend had asserted, $ few h at e but thousaads,sacrificed in that manner,in the province of Bengedk the official returns admitted that 3,400 had been burnt in direness; but he, had been moored that the actual number was mon thee 111011111 and from the English police o ffi cers being ordered to intersi Mrs, only in eases where the •ictim expressed reluctance,an opinion hod got abroad that the English elovernment countenanced the crime' In the Hindoo woman there was left an alternative of either leadfog • life of chastity, peace, and austerity, or sacrificing herself on the funeral pile of her husband ; and the question simply was whether they would com pel them to adopt that course which was conform. able to the spirit of our religion, and not averse to theirs, or lone them to continue a practice at variance with humanity, good Bey, and Christian principle ? The Resident, Alr. Metcalf, abolished the practice at Delhi without the slightest murmur. t had been discountenanced by the Moors, the French, the Dutch, the Portuguese, and every Power which ever held India. Albu querque, when he conquered Goa, abolished the custosti and the historian in relating the circumstances observes, that although to change their customs was almost inflicting death, yet that • feral life, and rejoiced in him who had effected that good, .mew the English then the last and sole possessors of Indio to he re. seeded as the only people which neglected that cruel peae*l sot suffered it to continue unchecked ? He trusted not. It hod ben shown they could abolish it with ease, and he pledged himself es early as possible next Session to afford them the opportunity. Mr. GRANT was favourahle to the abolition of the practice, if It could be done without shocking the prejudices of the Hindu& He had once conversed with a learned and rich Hindoo upon dm 'object, • man who had even been so liberal as to educate his only IWO after the Engli,ll custom—one of the most enlightened men ,of the Brahmin religion he had ever met with I and yet that man had asserted it was agreeable to the nature of thcir religion, and ought not to be changed. The lion. Gentletnan, the Member for Weymouth (Mr. Buxton) had told them it was not a necessary part of their religion ; but although not necessary it was like the taking of the veil in the Roman Catholic religion, a thing f O ,l which they were much commended. They had therefore great pro. judices and strong customs to contend against, and be thought they should be very cautious in their proceedings. Dlr. C. W. WYNN said there could be no difference of opinion as to the cruelty or impiety of the practice, but he was afraid the measures already taken to check it ; had rather encteued its preva lence. They must not think they were legislating for a few silly females ; they were making laws for a country nearly 1600 miles from north to south, and the sante from east to west, and the reme dies they might apply to one place would be very unfit for another. Much would depend on the character arid influence of local Magi. atra'es in checking its prop- as, but he thought they should not too rashly prohibit a practice which had continued since the time of Alexander the Great. ThPy might prevent them from burning themselves, but could they hinder them from starving or drowning themselves, or using any other immediate means of conforming with the superstition of the country. Ile would give his consent to its being wholly prohibited in those dis.ricts where it had already fallen into disuse, but he thought that going any further would not be attended with the effect the friends of humanity anticipated. Sir CHARLES FORBES thought the practice might long ago have been put a atop to. If a law passed declaring all those who as. sisted at such sacrihces to be punished with death it would hare the best effects. In Bombay, containing 200,000 inhabitants, of whom three quarters were Mottoes, there had not been a single sacrifice in 20 years, and only one attempt,which had been promptly and effectually stoprd by the Governor, and if others did their duty as eCiciently,lie was of opinion the custom might be altogether sup pressed. Mr. HYDE EAST was of opinion the discussions in Parliament would increase the practice. (No, no.) It had been said that the number of Alissionaries increased the aversion of the Hindoos to the Christian Church, and he thought they might be more usefully and charitably employed if they were left to themselves,and could persuad tliellndian widows to marry instead of burning on the holies of their husbands, (A laugh.) Mr. W. SIIITH expressed his conviction that if Government were to exert gulf against tho present system, it would easily be defeated, and he was satisfied that if instructions were transmitted from this country, the practice which had been so justly complained of would he effectually put down. Al r. 310 N EY thought, that if Government were to exert itself, the system that at present prevailed could easily be put an end to. He begged to state a circumstance -which had fallen under his own ob servation :--A woman, a widow too, had been subjected to be burned ; application was made to the civil authority to burn her, but the Magistrate remonstrated, and his remonstrance was so far successful. as to prevent her being burned. lie was satisfied that if sionler exertions were made by the Alagistracy, an end would be put to this practice, as, in the instance to which be had adverted, the persons engaged in the burning of this woman were deterred from doing so, as they were threatenorby the local authorities with being subject to a prosecution for murder if they prosecuted that engagement, This showed, that if the authority of Parliament were to interfere, the system could easily be put an end to. Sir 1. COFFIN thought that this country ought not to interfere with the religious prejudices of the people of India. (Hear, hear.) He was therefore &theme to any measure which had a tendency to such interference. (Hear.) After a few observations from Mr. BETXTOg, Mr. Hum', and Mr. EAST, the petition was ordered to be primed. NOTICES OF MOTIONS. Mr. HUM E gave notice, that to morrow he would move for certain papers relative to the number of state prisoners confined in his Ma jesty's gaols in the United Kingdom. The Hon. Member also gave notice that on Wednesday he would move for the production of certain papers relative to the promotion of officers to Chelsea HospitaL IRISH BURIAL BILL. Sir J. NEWPORT moved that the House resolve itself into • Committee on the Irish Burial Bill. The several dames were agreed to, and the Report, after a desultory conversation bete/eels Mr. S. Riot, ink a. H. INGLIS, Mr. Gounaliae, &c. was ordered to be broe or 10-morrow. 111 A UJRITIUS TRADE B t Mr. HUSKISSON moved that the House resolve itself into a Committee on the Alauritius Trade Bill. In reply to a question from Mr. Ottertail., Mr. BUSKI&ON said the object of this Bill was to place tee /k -• ".! 5' s -44444 rd lag b iou z. sus opinion to.. ' Iloaitieg the irnportation of Colonial produce < Wand. Mr. TICS/US:ION replied. The Bill now before the House 11 • 1 _1• 0 4•C•4 as a separate Bill. in compliance with the suggestion Gewlemen connected with the West Indies. The regute. don proposed by the Hun. Member was provided for by another Bill (the Colonial Intercourse Bill), which would be read a third tirse that night. If the Colonial intercourse Bill should he re jected, he would consider it his duty not to press the operation of the present Bill. Air. BRIGHT deprecated the practice of introducing one Bill, the omissions of which were to be vertieed by the provisions of another. Stich a system was only calculated to mislead the country It produced the certain effect of making the statute book confused, instead of rendering it more clear, which woe the object of every one in the House, except, perhaps, the Right Honourable Gen. [boas. Me. HUSKISSON dolled that his object ass to mislead the country. He expressed himself incapable of such an intention. There was no inconsistence in the present measure; its only object was to put the sugar of the Mauritius on the same tiootiate as that of the West Indies. This was a distinct object. As to the imports. tion of foreign sugar, both those Colonies stood on a different foot ing, and the Bill before the House diet r.ot alter the relative state of things. Mr. BRIGHT said he lad not meant to charge the Right lion. President of the Board of Trade with the intention of nesleading the country. He repeated, however, that the passing one Bill, whose operation depended spon the passing of another, was a sys tem pregnant with confusion. Mr. HUSKISSON conedered the Iron. Gentleman's opposition inconsistent mod vexatious. Mr. BRIGHT explainet. Alr. W. HORTON observed, that the object of the present Bill was to put the trade of the Island of Mauritius on the same Mining as that of the Island ofJonsica t not only as to the importation of sugar (the growth of that colony) into this country, but also as to the importatimt of fereign auger, which might be hitroduced into this country ffeen the Island of Mauritius. Mr. BERNAL was sorry the President of the Board of Trade had taken up this subject in the spint which he did. Ile repeated what he had before asserted, that the framing of the Bill was ex cessively defective, and might herd to the introduction of foreign sugar into the Mauritius, and Iron thence its imeortatiou into this country. Me. W. HORTON proposed the intmduction of an amendment to meet the objection of the on. tientleman. Mr. HUSKISSON land his principle was, in opening the home trade to the colonies, to prohibit the importation of foreign sugar into them. 3lr. ELLICE admitted that thr, subject was of great importance to the West India interest. lie contended, however, that the price of IVest India sugar must be repeated by the price of sugar all over the world. He thought his (Majesty's Ministers deserved the support of the House, when it was considered how much their en. deavours were impeded by opPosin; irterests. The Bill met his cordial assent, and he should morn it through all its stages. Mr. T. WILSON did not think this measure sliculd be intro. duceol to the prejudice of the M'est India interest. The market should not be suddenly inundated 'kith sugar which it was not contemplated could have come in. Sir R. FARQUHAR conceives that •the Island of Mauritius had a strong claim to the consilerstion of the House, in conse quence of the expectation held out during the last Session. Mr. PLU3I MER complained of the injustice of any measure which had a disadvantageoto edict on the Il est India interest. After a few explanatory theervations from Air. lisionT and Mr. W. liOnToW, the several clauses and amendments passed the Committee. The House then resumed, aid the Report was ordered to be re ceived to-morrow (this day). COLONIAL INTERCOURSE BILL. Upon the motion of Mr. HUSKISSON, the Order of the Day for the third reading of the Cebsial Intercourse Bill was reed. Mr. BARING said the commercial regulations proposed by the Right lion. Gentleman (Mr. Huekiseon) wore of the utmost im portance, and excited intenseinterest in the coontry. He begged to understand whether it was the Right lion. Gentleman's intention to add any thing to the general statement which he had made early in the Session, as he (Air. Baring) understood that it was resolved to make sonic alteration in the regulations then proposed. HUSKISSON said the principle of the new regulations with respect to the Colonies was, to put the trade of those Colonies on the same footing as that of Ireland. This was the object of all the alterations in the system of the Colonial trade. As to the row commercial regulations, he intended to trouble the House on Friday next with a statement explanatory of some intended alterations made in consequence of representations from the various parties whose interests were involved. Mr. HUME contended that it was inconsistent to open the trade of this country to the Colonies, whilst the necessaries of life im ported into those Colonies were taxed to such an excessive de gree. Mr. HUSKTSSON said there was not an article the importation of which was prohibited in the Colonies, the importation of which was not also prohibited into the United Kingdom. If the Colonies were placed on the same footing as Ireland with regard to imports. tion„ they had no right to complain. The Bill was then read a third time and pameil. THE DUKE OF CUMBERLAND'S ANNUITY BILL. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved that the House should resolve itself into a Committee of the whole House on the Duke of Cumberland's Annuity Bill. Mr. BROUGHAM said, as various discussions had already taken place on this Bill, every Hon. Member must have had an op portunity of expressing his sentiments on its merits. Asa Right Hon. Secretary had forcibly observed, the less that was now said on the subject the better. (A laugh.) In moving the amendment with which it was his intention to conclude, he del not mean to trouble the House with many words. They were not called upon to dis• cuss the adequacy or the inadequacy of the provision formerly made for the Duke of Cumberland. They were asked, in an indirect way, and by a circuitous route, which had In it little of frankness, honesty, or candour (hear), now to grant what lied been previously refused. If any lion. Member thought the former decision of the House wrong, that Hon. Member had betrayed his duty by ne glecting to have that decision repealed. This would have been the candid and manly way of acting. If any Hon. Gentleman now thought that the forma decision of the House was wrong, let hint now rise in his plate and propose that it be rescinded. He (Mr. B.) did not think any Hon. 31eniber would make such a pro. position. But why call upon the House to vote by a side wind (hear, hear.) what was refused upon a direct proposition ? It was proposed now to grant to the Duke of Cumberland, under pretence of granting to his child, what hail before been refused upon a direct Without further preface he would conclude by mov ing, as an amendment, that the House resolve itself into a Corn mime upon this Bill that day six months. Mr. COKE said it was evident the proposed grant was intended to benefit the Duke of Cumberland himself. A grant of 6,0001. per annum, for the support of a child, bore an absurdity upon its face. (Hear, bear.) When he looked upon the number of place men who came forward to vote upon this Bill, lie considered the proposition an insult to the Rouse. The public, he had reason to think, would feel much disappointed if this abominable proposition was acceded to. For his part, it would only prove to hint what he had always mairetaieed—that the House of 'Commons was most corrupt. Mr. DAVENPORT said this grant had been refused six years ago, and it was a gross inconsistency to endeavour to reverse the decision of the House by an indirect ',reposition. (Hear, hear.) The present proposal was intended, to ell intents and purposes, as a reversal of the former decision. He could not support Ministers in I such a measure, but he must do them the justioe to say that they ' deserved much credit, for the knowledge which they displayed in military tactics, and which was evinced by their putting the infan try in the front of the battle (hear, and laughter.) Mr. H. SUMNER could not look upon the present proposition as any thing less than a motion to reverse the former vote of the House. He belimed the allowance made to the Duchess of Kent was inadequate for the support of her station ; but she had ma. naged it with prudence and frugality, and conducted herself with an amenity of reamen, which- secured fee her universal respect. ' He had no objection to the proposed grant to the Duchess of Kent, but he thought, if the Duke of Cumberland remained abroad, 18.0001. a year was a perfectly adequate income. He was perfectly ready to make a grant for the education of the young Prince, but he did not think the grant ought to be made to the Duke of Cumberland. The allowance proposed was, in his opinion, too large. He conceived that if the young Prince were brought home to this country, tutors might be obtained for him of the greatest abilities, who would feel themselves amply paid with a much less au it ; he thought two or three thousand pounds a year would be quite sufficient to secure the best talent for educating the young Prince suitably to his high station in society. Mr. J. BENETT congratulated the House, and he also con gratulated the Country, at the honest inclination that had been evinced on this question by Hon. Members on the opposite side of the House. When be saw Gentlemen, who as almost all mot aims supported his Majesty's Ministers, express themselves so warmly and so strongly on a motion for a grant of 609111., to a member of t h e R oss i Family, he thought there must be Some strong reasons against the grant being made. When they consi dered what his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland already received, and that he was liviog Rom this cenntry, badmen it was too much to ask the Houle to grant him an additional NM ef 60001. He could only say, that he did hope that the example of those Hon. Gentlemen would, on this occasion, prove to the country, that there wan still a large portion of honesty and hue. grity in the House of Commons.

The Bill now before the House gave :v ..l ~~ Alak. who might one day 011 roe tle7 - net ..- eof ;lA* teal:Brought to be in. A great deal had been said with regard to the income e Duke Already allowed to him by the country. But after all, mull ask was 18,000/. a-year a very large sum for a person in high station? He conceived it was a very inadequate NUM, iTeeing the numerous cal!s made upon persons of his rank, were 116/ nude on . private individuate. They necessarily gave away large sums in c eurity.—( Hear. hear. and a !see.) A, to the question whether the young Peirce should be educated in England or ahroad, it was certainly desirable that it shouhl be in England, but he could not :went to the proposition that the child should be wilfully separated from his parent. He thought surh a procedure could not accord either with the feeltngs of the House of Cominons or of the English nation. He trusted that no such a Feeling existed in that House. But whether the son should be edit. catedaeart horn his parents or not, he was sure the II cense wirtld feel that it was their duty to grant an adequate allowance for his education. Sir J. SEBRIGHT said that in his judgment this Bill was neither more nor less than an attempt to give the Duke of Cumber. land an additional 6,0001. a year. It would have been creditable both to the Ministers and to the Duke, had they brought the mea sure forward at (MCC as a vote to the Dube of Cumberland himat If. He was willing to grant a proper allowance to his Royal High. nese to enable mm to maintain his dignity as a member of the Royal Family, and to educate his own son, and he thought 18,000!. a year was quite sufficient for (hone purposes; npreially when, as he had heard that his Royal Duchess was allowed 3.0001. • year by the king of Piussis. He had no deities to speak disrespect. fully of an Member of the House of Commons—la laugh)--of the Royal Family lie meant. He did not think that the conduct on the part of any Member of the Royal Family was a sufficient reason for withholding a competent allowance to him which his station in the country required; but he had not met with any in dividual, however closely coneeeted with the Duke, who did not consider this measure an entire waste of the public money. and al. together uncalled, for by the occasion. The idea of granting to the Duke of Cumberlan d sum of WOOL a year. to enable him to educate his own toe, wa s moat mange. It was like coming to the Maltietrates in ferrety pe nee r is. for an allowance to maintain his wife and family. (Hear, hear.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it was not for bin to answer for the motives of any one who felt disposed to support this grant. The Hon. Bart. brh and bins (Sir G. Warren der) had stated that his reason for voting for the grant was, that the Duke of Cumberland bed been ill-used, and ought to have been allowed the same sum as his other Royal relatives. Bet he must take the liberty of stating, that that was net the ground on which lie brought the measure forward. He was. hoerever, perfectly pre pared to justify himself in putting it upon the ground which he had done. He had no hesitation in eaying, that it' the circumstances were the same now as they were on the former occasion, then it would have exposed Government to a charge of great inconsistency in proposing the grant again ; but he would say that circumstances were entirely altered. The House fi rst began by granting the Duke of Cumberl and less than any of his Royal brothers. To the Duke of Cambridge and the Duke of Clarence they had granted an additional 6.0001. on their marriage, but this they did not think proper to do to the Duke of Cumberland. The Duke of Cambridge had since hail two children born, but the House had not been asked to grant him a further sum ; and why ? Because, having giren hint 24,0001., it was considered sufficient, not only to meet the additional expenses attending his marriage, but it was also given in contemplation of the probability of his having a family. The Hon. Baronet who spoke last said, that in coming to a decision on such a motion as this, he should not look into the personal conduct of any member of the Royal Family ; that was in his (the Chancellor of the Exchequer's) opinion. nothing but what was correct and proper. It was the duty of Government to consider only the relative situation of the Il lustrious Individuals belonging to the Royal Family. They ouelit to see that every member of the Royal Family was placed in a similar situation one with the other, and as became their rank, without any reference to the conduct of either. Hie Majesty's Ministers would have acted very wrong, and very disrespectfully, towards his Majesty, if they had gone to their Royal Master, and said, '• we advise you to place one of your Masty's royal brothers in a di ff erent situation from the ran of your Majesty's relatives." (Hear, hear.) Such a course would be disgraceful, and an insult to tireir Royal Master. The motion then before the (louse was nothing more than calling upon the House to place the Duke of Cumberland in the same situation with his royal brothers. It was no ,outrage on the country, nor an improper attempt to induce the House to retract its former decisions. But al. though the Honourable Member for Hertford did not regu late his opinions by the conduct of the Duke of Cumberland, yet the Member for Surrey had done so, and had used some very harsh words towards his Royal Highness. But he never could for the soul of him ascertain or guess what it was that the Gentlemen Mended their opposition upon. Nothing had been stated by any one of those who had opposed the grant that could explain the cause of this personal feeling towards the illustrious Duke. Of course it was a matter of so much delicacy, that he could not feel juetilied in entering into it at all; but lie would say, that if it were wrong to give to the Duke of Cumberland 6,0001. a e tear ' to educate his son, keep. ing out of sight any thing belonging to his personal character, as they were bound to do, then he would say, thut in common justice and consistency, the House ought not to have given the additional 6.000!. a-year to the Duke of Clarence and the Duke of Cambridge at the time of their marriages, and that they ought immediately to take away those grants. If the House of Commons did not do so, but considered those grants proper, then he thought it was unrea sonable. and he must say, unjust, to refuse to make a similar grant to the Duke of Cumberland, so that he might be placed on an equal relation with his Royal Brother,. Sir JOHN SEBR [UHT begged to explain.—The Right Hon. Gentleman had not Nutted correctly what it was he (Sir J. S.) said respecting the conduct of the Duke of Cumberland. What he said was, that the conduct of that Duke should not weigh with hint in assenting to make Min what wss a reasonable and necessary allow. once; but beyond that it certainly would, and did weigh with him, in his judging of the propriety of the present grant. (Hear, hear.) Mr. T. WILSON said that having great confidence in the watch. fulness of his Majesty's Government, lie certainly should support the grant. He must look to one circumstance, which was that • Prince had been born in whom they had all an interest. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) Ile thought that, secured as they were by the clause in the Act, which provided for the education of the young Prince in 'England. the House ought to make the grant. The questiou was now loudly tallied tOr, and strangers were ordered to withdraw. " Some discussion took place while we were excluded, and a division on Mr. Brougham's amendment was called or, when there were— For the Amendment, Against it, - Majority against the Amendment, 30 On our entering the gallery, Mr. BROU(111 AM was addressing the House. The lion. and Learned Member was fur a short time inaudible, owing to the noise occasioned by persons entering the House. When we heard him he was observing, that it appeared to him that the grant was really intended for the Duke of Cumber. land ; for, although it professed to be for the education of the young Prince, yet it was proposed to be for the life of the Duke. If the honest intention of Ministers had been to give an annuity for the education of the son of the Duke, nothing could have been more easily done; for it might have been said in the Bill, that the annuity was to be granted " for the life of the Prince ;" but in stead of such being the limitation, the words of the Act were " for the life of the Duke of Cumberland." It was not quite a provision for the arrears of the annuity, the payment of which an Hon. Ba. row (Sir Charles Forbes) had expressed his inclination to make up to the !Stoke for the last eight years; and nothing he was sure would be more gratefully acceptable to the Duke. But his Ma jesty's Ministers did not go so far as the llonourable Ba ronet ; they only meant to give the Duke an annuity of 6,000. for his life, for the education of his son. Bet then caine a proviso which was rather curiously worded ; for al though the former claust: gave the annuity to the Duke for his life, i s th is e li young atinc i p, t r i o in v c is c o si tLecl l a d re b d u t i h i a v t ing it in sho c u u l g d ia n u o d t , b or e payable shlid be abroad with the consent .of his Alajesty. But it the country should be so unfortunate as tolose tise young Prince, then the Duke and his friends would be in great strait, for the g.ant was not to be paid unless the Prince should be thing in Eucland. (Hear, and laughter.) Now If it was the intention to make t; Is grant far the benefit of the child alone, he would give the Committa an op. portunity of doing what they really meant to do. If ..: there were ^r lion. Members who thought that the Duke of Cumberland could not afford to educate his son out of an income of or lo,ooof. a-year, he would tell them how they might effect their put. pose. If they gave the King the sum of three thousand pounds to do that himself which they were now about empower the Duke of Cumberland to do, it would be the true and consti tutional mode. He would give 3,0001. a year to his Majesty for the benefit of the boy, taking care to provide that the King, who was the legal and constitutional authority for superintending the education of the young Prince, should appropriate it to that ex. press use. As his Majesty acted by his Ministers, over whoa. the /louse had a control, he considered this to be the only proper mode of accomplishing their object. Do not give money to the Duke of Cumberland, who is irresponsible, but give it to the King, who acts by his Ministers, and who would be responsible for the education of the son of the Duke in England. If thiamin not a fair and liberal provision, then he knew not what would be. flelhought the amendment he should propose would meet the wishes and feel. ings of all parties. lie should therefore move, that instead of the words " his Royal Highness Ernest Augustus Duke of Cumber. land," there should be inserted " His Majesty," and that the sum of 3,0001. a year for the life of the young Prince should be inserted instead of 6,0001. for the life of the Duke. Sir Cll.lliliES FORBES said that as the lion. and Learned fieutleman had been pleased to allude to what lie had said when the doors were closed, he could not refrain remarking that it wan his wish to address the House rather titan the newspapers but if any one thought that he said anything with closed dams which he would not say with the doors open, he would tell Inc be Mal no more capable of such conduct than the Has. mid Iwsnad (len. tleman himself. But the Hon. and Lemma lisublimum bed not stated hie warda correctly. He certainly did gegabig lendwue, the arrears ought to be pall to the Duke of eindidinikaid that it was his intention to make.a motion to that effect, kit be boll sub sequendy said that he would not do so. The Hon. Baronet was convinced that those very indivldasla vb. iteought forward these charges, and attempted to affix these stilitiMl wpm tie Duke of Cum be rland would be among Me fits to paws themselves the devoted humble servants of his Rowel ans, iheuld he come to the throne. He was satisfied the woes equally unfounded in themselves, sad unworthy of the maim . I'bo CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, when be . . 113 . . 143 stated at die commencement nt tt .41 a- ••ure the purposes to )i. - the grant was to be voted, it was cot.° .y the intenti on at lit : .. ' 1 jetty's Ministers that the sum sho u ld tic f or t h e bons fide ed,.cst:,, l et the young Prises is this country, atid tint ill alltuant sh oe ' s also be exclusively expended on his education ; and notwithstandaie the Honourable and Learned Gentleman (Mr. Brougham) had been extremely facetious in hie allusions to the unnOrity ma the life of the young Prince, he (the Cliatici:Jar of the Kai:fleece: t professed himself quite willing to confine the grant .to she minuets of the young Prince. and it was by no means his intention to coM fer an annuity upon the Duke of Cumberland. He entertained eo objection whatsoever to the introduction of words tato the Bill ex• punitive oft fiat purpose. but he found it impossible to agree wi t h the clause proposed by the lion. and Learned Gentleman, ant which went to vest the control and disbuisenientof the grant and in the bands of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland, no t to place it in those of his Majesty. Intended u the grant was to go to the maintenance and education of the young Prince, he thought it but fair that it should pass through the bards oldie father, for if it were to be disbursed only by the Kind, as proposal by the lion. 31enther's amendment, thew aleellidieWskil of ('eta. betland have no control over the edocathas of big won eon. If lie were asked to choose between the Learned Grinlesnan's amendment and the entire relinquishment of the proposed grant, he could have no hesitation in preterring the latter, because the adoption of the restriction would be tantamount to saying to the Duke of t'unther• land we will not trust you with the education of your own son. The lion. Gentleman, and all who thought with him. sod voted for his proposition, conveyed a direct imputation upon his Royal Highness, which those who were disposed to support the grant could never consent to. With regard to the other part of the lion. AI/tubes motion, the substitution of three thousand for six thousand pounds, as originally intended, he did not feel more disposed to entertain it. lie granted it was exceedingly difficult to render it clearly demon strable that six thousand pounds was the cum absolutely necessary for the purpose. (Hear, tram 31r. lkougbam.) But it was equally dif f icult to fix on any specific sum and prove it to be the exact amount which was required. (Hear, from tile Treasury benches.) In giving way to some of the propositions made 1.1 he had done, he thought there would appear reason for increasin g rather than d e . iiiinishing the grant it a ny al tera ti on were des irable; for as the young Prince was to be educated in this country, surely the House would not say that it was not necessary and desirable that he should be occasionally permitted to visit his Royal Father while the latter retitled in a foreign country, and the expense of those visits would rather call for more enlarged than limited allowance. He felt no fiction towards confining the grant to the minority of the yoong re ; but lie could nat consent to diminish its amount. anti stilt to deprive his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland of his it and proper share in the education of his only son. E n Mr. H. 51.:31N ER disclaimed all wish to cast imputations on die character or conduct, public or private, of his Royal Highness 0. Duke of Cumberland. If any aunt was to be voted. that last tZi7ed by the Hon. and Learned Member for Winchilsea (31% thain) should have his approbation. Mr. BROUGHAM—It had been determined, upon the suthe. rity of the Judges (with, he believed, the exception or two dieser.. dent voices among that learned body), that 'the control of the So. tereign was paramount and supreme over the younger brandies of the Royal Family, during the continuance of their minority. U. dor those circumstances, his proposed alteration would not go to alter the control or amthority of the king, as it at present muted, bat only to give his 31 , iiesty the means of paying for the education Mid maintenance of his Royal Nephew. As the law stood, the Ling possessed the power of regulating and determining the r,s. *nee of the young Prince While a minor. This was /aid down under the decision of the Judges, in the case of George the Stead sodthe children of the Prince of Mars; and the control of the young Princes had been declared to reside not in the father but in their grandfather, the reigning Sovereign. lie repeated, this had been done in the case of his late Majesty, by his grandfather, George 11. It was the law of the land, as interpreted by the ma_ jetty of the Judges, and referring to the management of the Royal family, and it had since been acted on, once and again. The bee King had interfered in the regulation of the education of the Princess Charlotte ; and his present Majesty had in like manner interfered, and taken her oat of the binds of her mother. Ile repeated, such was the law of the land as it related to the control of the Soysteism over the younger branches of the Royal Family ; and the present Bill, by giving money to the King for the education of the young Prince, did not interfere with the right which 'treaty existed in his Majesty. or say anything about the privilege which the law already conferred. He prayed the House to consider the subject upon con. stitutional grounds, and to say whether it was fit or not to place the education of' a Prince who might be one day called on to &lithe throne of this realm, in responsible or irresponsible hands. The avowed object of this grant was for the education of the young Prince, and he (Mr. Brougham) was desirous that he should be brought up in the most liberal and becoming nianner; but let the Noose consider whether it would not accomplish its object upon more constitutional. more regular and safer principles, by confiding his education to the handle of his Majesty, or, more correctly speaking, his Majesty's Ministers, who were responsible, titan to the Duke of Cumberland, who was not responsible. Such a proceeding would sfliard a much better security against the possibility of eff. veering this 6,0001. a year from the education of the young Prince to the payment of debts, annuities, and other incumbraaces, thin could be effected by entrusting the administration of the funds to his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland. lie was free to ad. wit at the present moment they were very flush of money, and, tie use a vulgar expression, did not seem to know what to do to get rid of it. The nation had got into its plethoric habit, and here was a golden opportunity to expend money for the use of this child of six years old. Rio supposing the Bin to pass in its present state, it would give the I uke of Cumherlaad a complete control over this 6,0001. a year durit g the minority of his son, and he might spend it all abroad wlthou , sending one shilling of it over to England fur the education of the young Prince. This might be done, and then we should be again called on to pay the expenses attendant en the education of his son among the other contingent expenses of the year. What he proposed was to make the grant to the Crown, or rather the Ministers of the Crown, making them responsible that it shotthl not be diverted front its sacred purpose, but set apart as a mend fund for the accomplishment of the proposed object ; along wi th this lie would leave the power and control of the Prince's education where it at present existed by law, in the hands' of the King. The Hon. Member seemed to think he (Mr. B.) thought him not ready to say, in the presence of strangers, what he was ready to urge upon this subject in their absence. What he meant to convey was, sin'. ply, that it might be more convenient for his Royal Highness tie Duke of Cumberland to have his cause pleaded in private than in public, and perhaps the Royal Duke's friends were also of that opinion. Mr.'Secretary CANNING said his Right Hon. Friend (the Chan. cellor of the Exchequer) had manifested his anxiety to send this grant through the House in a shape as unobjectionable as possible ; and for his part he fully concurred in the course taken by his Hun. Friend, and thought themore clear the understanding on which the terms of the grant were made, and the more perfect the secu rity which was afforded for effecting its purpose the better. lie did not seek to obtain for his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumber land any extraordinary degree of credit or confidence at the hands of the House. Without entering into the consideration of that suite ject, it was sufficient to say that those Honourable Gentlemen who thought the grant, if vested on his Royal Highness, would he diverted from its proper object, and lavishly thrown away, and tie. voted to purposes not contemplated by the vote of the House, must feel, think, and be actuated in a way very different front his Right Hon. Friend who had introduced the measure to the consideration of the House. Under such circumstances, and acting on that be lief, it could not be expected that they should support the measure, but on the contrary ; neither could it be reasonably expected that those who thought with him, and took the same view of the case Ps did his Right Honourable Friend (the Chancellor of the Ex chequer), could for a single moment come into the proposal of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman opposite (Mr. Brougham). For his own part he did think that the opposition offered to this measure, and the hostility manifested towards his Royal Highness, the Duke of Cumberland, was founded upon a distaste felt by some towards that High Personage, or, he should rather say, it appeared founded more upon a downright dislike than Ulnae. and more upon a persecuting detestation than either. (Hear.) Those Gentlemen who were determined by their vote to endeavour to exclude his Royal Highness from the enjoyment of any share of a father's power and influence in the education of his child, openly declared their distrust of the Duke of Cumberland, and proclaimed their opinion of his inability to educate his own son. Upon the same grounds would those Members act who felt disposed to support a diminution of the grant such as that now proposed, although he ad mitted it was extremely difficult, perhaps impossible, to say wit hin t its or live hundred pounds what should be the exact limit of its a. ' wont. However Gentlemen acting upon either of the suggestions 0- the LiCITI. and Learned Member would be only bringing to the tear within t. walls walls an opinion with respect to the Duke of byCum berland, long OptIl:;* avow ed 4 many without them , but which he f e l t was by no means a ..! subject for, p:. had been displayed on discussion in that plan e. He thought the utmost sincerity u. the part of his Majesty's Ministers ,:: . rinet i n th e , fiduct of this grant, n more particularly by his Right Hon. Colleague 2..'e Chaoceßor of the Exchequer, who had at once consented to limit the "Ten t ' ! ° the life and the minority of the Young Prince; but lie also la.'T a and was assured, if he or his Honourable Friends consented to any further propositions, at least such as those now made, they would be only adding fresh confirmation to the nppro. brium which, lie thought, unjusdy existed against his Royal High sets the Duke of Cumberland ; and along with that, they would have deserved ill of their country in bringing his name in nata tion, or the present subject before the consideration of the Hoare. He was perfectly satisfied to limit the grant to the continuance of the minority of the Young Prince, and he thought his Right Hon. Friend. in consenting to that, had agreed to everything that was practicable, but he could never agree to those furtherdeMands, which, if conceded, would only go to fix firmly on his Royal Highness the stigma it had been attempted to attach to his name ; and on those grounds he felt himself called Son to re s i s t th e amendments now proposed to be introduced into the Bill. Sir CHARLES FORBES' rose amidst loud cries of s. ques tion," and •• withdraw." We understood the Hon. Baronet to say, that if the charges were brought forward he had no doubt of his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland's ability to meet them in a satisfactory manner. Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and the House di vided, when there appeared— Against the Amendment - . . 152 In favour of it . - - . 114 Mijority Is Even of the Bill - --113 On re-entering the gallery, we Mud the Speaker in the Chair, and Mr. BROUGHAM Mthuering the Home.
