HAsiii.ToN --- brougliiUp the Report of the Committee ou the Royal Burghs of Scotland, wheli war laid on the table. The Noble Lord then moved that it be printed. Mr. %V. It. K. DOUGLAS suggested to the Noble Lord the inexpediency of printing the Report slow, when it was understood that early next Session the whole subject would lie taken under the immediate consideration of the House. With such au under standing, he was at a loss to see what object could be gained by printing the Report—it would be merely disseminatin,, , e, in an incomplete and imper fect manner, that which, if delayed until next Stt• slim, might be matured and completed. Mr. T. F. KEIsN EDI( could not concur in the propriety of postponi ng the printing of this Report. It wait the result of the labours of a Committee appointed to consider of numerous Petitions which had been presented to that House, a Committee that, after much anxiety, much labour, and pro. tracted investigation, had framed this Report, with, he believed, tl.e concurrence of all the Members present. except his Hon. Friend opposite. He hoped that the House would not, after the full and accurate inquiry made by that Committee, so far discredit its opinion or cast distrust up it, as to refuse plinting the Report.—( lenr.)—fle could see no object whatever in postponing the printing of this document. and he saw considerable good which must arise from giving it publicity ; for in stance, it appeared in evidence that the great ma jority of the people of Edinburgh were decidedly hostile to the mode now pursued of electing their Magistrates, while, on the contrary, the Chief Ma gistrate was decidedly fasourable to the existing system. This difference of opinion rendered it es sential that the Report should go forth, for the pur pose of trying. if possible, to reconcile these con flicting opinions. He had another and a very strong reason fur wishing that this Report should b e printed. It had been said early iu the discussion on the state of the Scotch burghs, that Parliamentary Reform was the object of the Petitioners; now it would be clearly seen from the evidence given be fore the Committee, that they had no such object, and that their etfurts were solely confined to provide a remedy fur the abuses in their burghs. The whole tenor of the evidence would phew that there was not the slightest ground for the imputation which hail been cast until' the Petitioners. Mr. W. It. K. DOUGLAS repeated his hope that the printing of the Report would not be pressed in this ►ta t ;e of the business, and when it was under. stood that the question would be revived and fully distu•aed early in the ensuing Session. Lord A. HAMILTON said, that after the investi gation which had taken place in the Committer, he did not feel himself warranted in postponing the p( i iii ing of this Deport until the next Session of Parliament. lie should tot feel himself justified in withholding front the House and the public un til next Session the information which this Report contained. Mr. Hung thought the Report ought to be printed. Lord Etnnitick moved, tos an amendment, that the House should take this Report into their consi deration early in the ensuing Session. Mr. W. R. K. DOUGLAS said, it would not only he unjust, but extremely inconvenient, that evi dence of this sort should ;pi forth %alma sonic explanation. He hail !nen represented as the single dissentient in the Cumniatte ; but he could enure the House, that were it not fur the late pe riod of the Sl'llBloll when this Committee sit, a number of Members who were now mbrent front town would have attended, and the investigation would have been carried further, and reduced to a more explanatory form. The Committee met to go into evidence on the 31st May. They some. times sat from nine o'clock in the morning until six, and often unit o'clock in the evening.— / lieur.)—But the precipitancy was now and them such, that witnesses undo, eX3 iiiiii onion were required to be brief, and he had no doubt was by those admonittous prevented from often givingex platiatury and extenuating matter, which might have vatted the features of the.

The CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER, saw', that with regard to the inquiry before the Com mittee, it was the i.nxiosia Nish of his Msjesil's Government to give terry pos•ible facility to it. Sir J. AIALIORIBANKS contended, LIM the city of Edinburgh was I.wrlectly solvent. lie woulil not, he said, hesitate to make any advances to theta from any apprehension of their want of perfect solo vency. Mr. J. I'. GRANT said, that an attempt was mad.: to throw discredit on the proceedings of the Com inittre ; he would therefore wish to see the minutes of their proceedings pirated. and then is itntrutial judgment could be formed. IVitii re gat•l to the affairs of the city of Edinburgh, alluded t • by the Ron. Baronet, he would only say, that Ine hoped the Hun. Beronet, before he itssejered. would make himself better acquainted with their affairs than the public ()Rivets of that corporation appeared to be. The Chamberlain of that city tr.,' brought before the Committee, but he appeared t.i know little or soiling about the state of the.r ailaits; the Lord Provost and other officers weir summoned before the Committee (and heir 1t...! could not help observing that they unnecessarily delayed their journey Iron Scotkiwi) ; upon ti e examination of these gentlemen the Committee be. stowed much attention. lie concluded by hops ; that as aspersions were throw.' upon the Commute, the [loom would allow their proceedings to be printed. Lord BINNING commenced by saying, that 4.i the proceedings of the Committee penstroaliy, lie knew nothing.
