The House re:nlre•d nse•ll into a Committee on the Bill for •ipipending. for a limited time, the im portation of hoine-maitle spirits into Ireland and Carat Britain. n•rpectively. Mr. l'Enctssl. stilted, that from the great dif ference of opinion that appeared tirfore the Com mit:et 13/ , „ti le ., ivied rr4ard to ritualising tile ditties to .Lbe mitt wally vald Moro the liaimrtatlail of spirits into the two t uunhiea , it was inithri possible to orraiii,e any thing detinitivay during . " the 'remainder of the prevent Session, for settling the law on the subject. It was therefore con sidered advisable to continue' the present sitspen sion till the next Session of Puiliameat, against which time some arrangement would be probably fixed on. He therefore proposed tiding up the clause, limiting the duratimi of the Bill, with the words " twenty-fifth day of Nlarch next." Mr. HUTCHI NOON said, A was in proof before the Committee up stairs, that the English distiller did net seek fur any trade with Ire:and ; but, en the contrary, that the Irish distiller was 1111%10114 for the trade with England, and ionselnently the in jury done by the continuance of the would solely affect Ireland ; as such, he considered the measure a violation of the articles of the Union. In fact, he knew that the Irish distillers would rather 'give to regala:iuits that might be considered inimical to therm than continue the suspension any longer. Ile should therefore think it his duty to take the sense of the House upon it. Mr. PONSO NBY did not think there was any iit cesbitv to continue the suspension, us a few days would *Office to decide upon the points in dispute. -The parties interested, however re to they might live, were all rtpri semi d here by their aviits, who were fully instructed on the any. t. The del i), therefore, of a few days w the termimi tion of the session. was on rtason whatever for con tinuing the auspeusiou for so long a pet iod as that proposed. If nothing else could be done, it would be preferable to allow swatters to remain as they ale; because though it was true that the ad vonragea at present were in sortie degree iu favour of Ireland, N(1,2 ens no danger those advaileiges would be suffered to remain long. Mr. Forrca said. the differences in the Commit. tee upstairs were so great, that it was found impos sible to conic to any concluston on the subject ; it became therefore necessary to continue the ate:pen sion, till those differences should be reconciled. It was well known, that the thawbeck upon Import ation from Scotland into Ireland, operated ■s a bounty in favour of the former, while the reverse was the case le,on Importation from Ireland into Scot land ; it was, therefore, for the interest of Ireland, that the suspension should continue till an arrange ment could take place. Ile agreed that the delay of the Session was no objection ‘ provided they o r likely to agree in the time, but that was impus bible. Sir JOHN NEWPORT stated, that • :te: injury sus tained by the Import:akin from ;:ieotland into Ire land, was intended t.. Iris.. been remedied by the lute Arlinintsrration i t i 397, and for this putpoSe, a Suspension Bill tor two months was passed, 1 , 9 afford time to a.ply a remedy. In the meat, time cane the dissolution of Parliament; and then instead. of entering into • any inquiry on time subject ; the suspension was coutit,ued for a year, and, after that, fur another ; and iiuvr it was attempted to be emitinued for a still further pericil. The Committee that was appointed up stairs to inquire into the subject, entered, in his opiniou. •improperly into it, as if reciprocity was to be sought fur; whereas, by the Union, it was intended to give Ireland the advantage in the spirit trade, as a corn peusation for other important branches of trade wind' were given op to this country. The con tinuation vif the suspension might make the Irish dirtiller Argil e to nny terns*, however hard, in order to be admitted to come into the market ; a harL ship, which, he hoped, the candour of the Bowie would not sutler to be inflicted. Ile therefore claimed for Ireland the lament of the Act rof Union. Mr. flust.unott contended, that, by the Sixth Article of the Union, reciprocity, in every article of commerce between the two couutries, was meni feqiy intended ; amid before they came to any dv eision on thin subject, it would be necessary to look into the letter and Nara of the Act of Union. It was therefore inutlifestly impossible, iw the present stage of the Sessimi, to undertake any haul ar rangement. Sir G. HILL was of opinion, that a final ar rangement should have taken place before the Articles of union were settled. He considered the nuspeosion necessary in the present stage of the bunnies*. Mr. W. %tern would agree to go into the sub ject now. if it were possilde to arrange it, but it was not ; and as a less evil was to he preferred, he would agree to the suspeininii. He dewied that any advantage. iii fuvonr of lielaiel, in the distille ries, Iva% tier Inteteittl by the Act of Union. Sir J. NLIVPURT again asserted, that such an. advantage was intended as a compensation for her giving up other valuable branches nf trade. Ii there was anv difference of opinion on this subject, let the two P . :ointments be restored, soil then they might treat on equal terms; for what chance had Irelaurl in the Imperial Parliament, where she was sure to be out-numbered lie contended they had no right to decide OW what is called the spirit, agniiiiit the letter of the Act of Union, except where there was a contradiction in the terms, on account of the bias. which, without imputation, was natural to every wan in favour of his own country. Mr. I'LRLEVAL deprecated the idea of that Home seeking to effect any changes in the Act of Union, upon what might be called the spit it of it ; and the ermelission he drew from this was, that we should do every thing with the utmost care and caution.-- This was the principle upon which delay was sought, lest by over liege such ao imputation should be made; nod where inch a difference of opinion was found in the Committee up *t w i n ,. what chi:nee was there of that Hoare coming to any agreeemerit in the course of a few days Mr. GRATTAN observed, the question was a lucre matter of f.e.t, not whether the arleinitage was on one side or throttler, hat v.hether it was agreeable to the Act of Union ? The Hight Hon. Gentleman thought dint till the molter could be arretiged, the trade shoot.' be stopped ; be, thi the cootrary, was of oinition, that until that period,it should be allow ed In l c, on.

It was well known, he thought arratigeinetit* ehould he made respecting sinecure plans ; but to stoat ex tent, what compensation should be given for their uholi/ion, &e. thin winos not the time tiir discussing; nor was he prepared to enter on the subject ; uud therefore he could give uo pledge couce • g it. Lord HENRY Parry was decidedly of opinion that the salaries of the Judges should Ise mid Also that this wes quite distinct from the sub ject of siiieeure places, %thick at the seine time, demanded the most speedy inquiry. Mr. WILBERFORCE thought, if the House were to apply the produce of the sinecure pieces to t h e puynient of the Judges, it tnigbt be said they ucu e. influeneed iu the rnetisure by the desire of gettin 4 the overrhis into their howls. He would therelme keep the two subjects dist iuct. Tree House then resolve•l itself into the Com mittee. .Ir.

The like sum was proposed to be added to the salary of the Chief Baron of the Exchequer. With respect to the %Veld' Judges, no addition had been made to their Wanes since 1772. Their salary was 7001. a-year, which, by deductions, was reduced to aka. vi-pear. It is true they were nut ut the time ex. pellet., nor were they excluded from practising at their profession. The addition he proposed would nut he thought too much, it was only 3001. a year. With respect to the Judges in Scothiud and It claw I, in the former some alterations had been adopted, and a Commission was now sitting on the subject ; he therefore thought it better to postpone their claims till the report of the Cow miesiontrs, content ing himself with saying, he thought they merited increase. Of the Judges in Irelaiid, he had Ira* information. lie had wily lately braid boon toe Clenicellor of that Kineeloni, that they merited s e iiicwisse of salary. lie only begged it might he niiilin•stood, that any delay did not arise either from iisattention or disregurd. lie concluded with moving, " That the several additions to the respec tive salaries be charged upon the Consolidated Fund." Lord HZ/IRT PETTY wilily bore testimony. to the merits and claims of the Judger to the proposed increase, and hoped that the vote of the Houses would be given, not only with zeal, but ucanumity. He also appraised of the addition to the Welsh Judges, suggesting, at the same time, the pro priety ea putting Wales upon the same system of jurisprudence, in all respects, as England. Mr. WILLIAMS WYNT4II thought the increase to the Judges' should he carried further, in er der to citable them to support their situations, and to induce gentlemen of respectability to accept the office. He preposed to make the increase of Bailey suol. instead of JOOl. a-year. Mr. BARREN thought fist the Welsh Judece slio4i'd not has e seats in that House any more then the English Judge»; cud that the weevils.. of tenet salary shout.i be coupled with their exuliesion. Mr. Macs:vat. said, he had proposed inch an iu crease Its lie conceived was his duty ; but if it should appear to be lime m use of the House to muke a fur the iiiteeinc, be wetibl yield to the cell. • Mr. ADAM throl K ist there was nothiug to prevent preeeut increase to the salaries of the Sects Judge.; the Commission now sitting . was nu cense for delay, as their diaper ere• all dentied, and, of course, the }louse was competent to decide now on their claims.
