RUSSELL said. than there were at pre sent in this country soma unfortunate foreigners engaged in transacting private business, and n ot i n any way interfering with political matters. How ever, reports had been raised that they were to lie sent out of the country under the Alien Act. He therefore wished to have I.ome assurance from the Noble Lord that such a destgui 1144 not in the con templation of his Majesty's Ministers.

Under these circumotaticss lie could not ',ledge himself to what might he the intentions of the Government respecting them. CATHOLIC DISSENTERS. Mr. PARNELL postponed till after the recess his notice of a Bill to nimble Catholic Dissenters to provide residences fur their clergy. The Hon. Member stated his reasons for adopting this course, but they were very imperfectly !mull in the gallery. We understood him to say, that lie octed so in de ference to the judgment of other, who thought the question to be one connected with Catholic Eman cipation, though he did not view it in that light. He then bore honourable testimony to the exemplary conduct of the Catholic clergy in Ireland, and the great exertions winch they ha I mark to preserve the tranquillity of that country. The public quiet there was in a great degree attributable to them, they liar lug remitted no effort to keep down all dispositio.i to disaffection or disturbance, and having even gone from house to house to insures. on the minds of the laity the great duty of obedience to the laws. He. therefore, expressed a hope that something should • be done to amend the law in this particular. Mr. C. GRANT expressed his approbation of the course pursued by the Hon. Gentleman. At the same time, as mention had been made of the Ca tholic clergy, lie thought it his duty to say, that the exertions of that respectable class of individu als, to preserve the tranquillity of the country, most justly entitled them to the approbation of the House.—(Hear.) —lt had fallen to him, in the execution of the duties of his office, to know how earnestly and anxiously they had laboured to paralyze the efforts of the seditious and factious among their Rocks. And he did not speak of the inferior orders of the clergy only, his observation applied equally to the higher classes of the pre- Isies.—(Heur.)—Considering himself as one of the persons at present charged with the security ot the public peace in belated, he said that that was due, in no smell degree, to the zealous, pa triotic. and Christian-like co-operation of the Ca tholic clergy.—( Hear, hear.) CONVEYANCERS. MARERET said, the Right Hon. Gentleman seemed to hay great stress on his making a general ststement of fits object. He thought he had before void, that the papers were quite necessary to the House before it could enter on the consideration or discussion of subjects of finance. He was quite sure that they would feel it would be a great waste of time to attempt to go into financial discussions without bring put in poesession of the facts, which were to be known only from these papers ; and he considered that that was quite a sufficient ground. The Chsncel!or of the Exchequer calculated very sanguinely on the item ditties. He computed on 2. I 90,000/.arising from malt duties,&c.andsoo, ooo /. from usher sources. He therefore wished to have an accouitt of the actual produce of the new taxes, in order that the House might be enabled, by on ex. amination of facts, to know what hopes there were of the realization of 3,190.000/.. their estimated amount. But the Right Hon. Gentleman would say that they had not yet come in; he Par. Maber ly) was aware that the first of the four payments on the stuck of malt in hand, for instance, was not potable till the 10th November. But souse. thing ought to have come in from them since the sth Judy—whereas, if he had been rightly in formed, they hail produced nothing, or at least. if they had, that the old duties were vanishiag. For he understood that in the quarter b e tween July and October, there was a falliieg oft in the gross duties of between 900,000/. auth 1,000,0001. and he was informed that at present there was a falling oft of forty or fifty thousand pounds a week.— These were facts which ought to be brought within the knowledge of tile House; awl he should be fully as happy as ate Right Hon. Gentleman to discover that there duties were more productive than he had been taught to think. He should very readily take the return up to the 10th of October. as implored. He allowed that there might be a difficulty with respect to the fractional duties; but the House would feel that on ite-re-aosembling, after the recess, it would be competent to him to propose the completion of the return for the year front the 10th October.—(Hear.) The CHANCELLOR. of the EXCHEQUER said, that down to the easel of November. the whole produce of the new duties was a sum of something lees than 1,000/. from wool—(Hear. hear. frost the Oppose tion)—and about 236,0001. from the Excise, with some other small fractional sums, the exact amount of which lie could not gate. Of this about 136,000/. hail been received before the 10th of October. Mr. TIERNEY said. that there were weekly ac counts of the produce of the revenue always regu larly made, front which the return in question could be extracted. Mr. NUS/LISSOM said, that the aggregate pro duce of the revenue up to a given dry could he ascertained in that way. tint what was mow desired was a specific and separate statement of the pro duce of the new ditties. Mr. Tt etre tv thought that there was no difficulty in the case. His object in rising was not so much to prepare the way fur the diecussion of questions of finance, fur of hie:social discussions he was quite sick, sisal assured the Right Hon. Gentleman that hr should not give hint much more trouble in that way, for if them wet any one thing in the system of the existing Administration) which Gentlemen opposite had node uptheir minds at all hazards to support. it was the Right Honourable Gentle.. man's plats of finance—(.l laugh)--but he wi s hed that there motions should be agreed to for the sake of the public. who were kept in a state of constant disquiet by the most alarming IRe moors respecting the revenue and resources of the cumstry. What the Chaiicellor of the Exche quer had told them had already appeared in • the Newspapers. He (Nlr.Nanaittart).esid he sow no reason to doubt that all the details of his teat year's plan of fiiiiiiice would be iodized. It 'would be extremely satisfactory to the House to be con viuced of the justness of his reasonings.

Mr. MAIIIIRLY raid, that in rising to move for certain papers. pursuant to notice, he ithould think it sufficient to state, that questionauf finance which were of the greatest importance to the country, could trot be discussed satisfactorily without the knowledge of facts, to obtain which, in order to pre pare the House for discussion immediately after the recPss, was the object of his motions. He in tended to move for each account separately. and if the Right Hoe. Gentleman opposed them, he would, no doubt, state to the House what his ob jections were, and then he (Mr. Maberly) should be very happy to state the reasons in support of them, epd go into a discussion.

Mr. ABERCROMHY h.id. iliat lie had utOerstood that no liiniiiiess lid. to lisve been brooght forward tut .that which was the nninediate object of the meeting of Parlisment. He was, therefore, surprised that the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite (the Chan cellor of the Exchequer) should have brought in two Bills, which were of great public importance. (bile of the Ilia. lie understood, was to be read a %retold time that night, from which he collected, that it min the intention of the Right Hnitooralde Gehttellnan to have them passed with all eltpedi tit n: The object of the Bills was for the better ?trinity ,of money paid into the Court of Ex . hequer, on account of suits. and by suitors.— To Owl regelations n the Bills he had no ob. jectido; he thoughti they were necessary and . just; but he begged to say that two attempts the Same kind had been made in that House, and the,resson of their failure was, that an Hots. Friend of Ws, who brought them in, refused to 'inert uprises:non, recognizing the right to competi. infirm of the person who received emoluments fur the use of tbe. public money. He wished to know from the Right Hon. Gentleman whether he in tended-to introduce a provision to give a peosion to the Deputy Remembrancer of the Court of Exche quer, and he hoped the Right Hon. Gentleman *sonid not think of passing the Bills through the ilouve.without first having them printed and of turilmg..time fur consideration, as they were of im portance to the country. The Hon. Gentleman concluded by moving for an account of all monies in the.hands of the Depirty Remembrancer of the Excheqtret paid into that Court on account of suits and suitors, distinguishing such part as war consi dered dead or unclaimed. The CHANCELLOR of the *EXCHEQUER said he had no opposition to make to the motion ; but had the Hots. Gentleman applied to him before he made any observations in that House, he would have learnt that it was his intention to have nifurded every reesonsble time for the consideration of the IHI 4 . He could assure the Hon. and Learned Member that his views were entirely disinterested iv bringing forward the measure, that his only object was to provide against a public Inconel.- &rote, and for the better security of the public money. Ms. ABBRCROMBY and the CHANCELLOR of the EU:HOWER mutually explained, and the motion was agreed to. On the cretins of the CIIANCTILLOS of the EICHEIAVER, the Court of Exchequer Bill was read a ',toed time sold en:omitted. THE REVENUE. Mr. GRENFELL said, that it had been reported in the. newspapers, as an answer given by the High Hen. Gentleman (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) to o question put to him by an Hon. Geutleman, 'the Member for Wareham, that he (the Chancellor 'of the Exchequer) had stated that he had every o to believe and to hope that the revenue of country, for the present year, would go the extent of the calculation laid down the last year, and that the result would be. that there would be a clear surplus of five millions applicable to the payment of the debt. The statement was one of great im portance—it filled many with surprise—and it gave ratters much satisfaction. He (Mr. Grenfell) was one of those who heartily felt that satisfaction, and 'in order to prevent the possibility of any misunder standing on so important a point, he hoped that 11;e Right liou. Gentleman would repeat the state ment be had made. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHICQUEIL said, that he had uo objection to repeat the statement he had made—the statement, to the best of his recollec tion, was whet lie made in the course of rather an irregular conversation, that from the present state Of the revenue, and from the best judgment he could form, he had no reason to think that any deviation • from the financial plan laid down last year would he necessary. Mr. BILOUGHAII said, he felt satisfaction from the statement of the Hon. Gentleman, and he would congratulate the country upon it, but the satisfac tion woold be the more complete if the Right honourable Gentleman would as not only that lie saw no reason for not going on with his plan of appropriating five millions to the payment of the notions! debt, bat also whether he would have those *se millions, or whether he would be obliged . to find them, and by that maws create a deficieuey of .6 re million elsewhere. The CUANCIILLOR of the EICHIQUER said, that that wad not the proper time for the Hon.

In some time after the Petitiont, was committed to prison on a charge of some sedition, practices. where he was trested i, it most barbarous manner. It was given out that he was the not° , lOUs General !Auld ; but after some time being in prison he was discharged.-- lie was afterwards taken nut of his bed and dragged to prison, where he was very ill-treated, and was detained for many days, without knowing the charge on which he had been taken up. At length he was told that he was detained under the charge of murder—for the minder of a person of the name of Charles Chailwell, whom the Peti tioner states he had never known. This charge was brought against the Petitioner ou the information of a convict. then about to be transported to Botany Bay. NVlten in possession of the charge, the wife of the Petitioner procured a certificate from the physician who *attended Mr. Chadwell, by which it appeared that he was toot murdered, but died of a fever. It having teen stated that the de. ceased received a blow in a scuffle some time before his death, a Coroner's Jury sat on the body, and their verdict stated Holt lie died of it fever. Colonel Fletcher, notwithstanding, committed the Petitioner on the charge of murder, and on that charge lie was kept in prison from June to August. He was never brought to trial on that charge, and lie (Mr. B.) believed that no bill of indictment was ever presented, nor no person bound over to prosecute. He was, however, tiled for a political misdemeanor, and on the evidence of two persons of bad character, exclusive of their being intim, he was convicted ; and it [dandy - appeared 'Mans the Judge's charge to the Jury, that .he did not believe the evidence, and even at most'the word, imputed to the Petitioner were a mere drunken speech. He wes, however, convicted by the Jury. .The Peti tioner prayed that his case might be taken into consideration by the House, and also that the Par figment would not give additional and discretionary powers to Magistrates who had already 'hewn a disposition to abuse the powers intrusted to them. The lion. Gentleman concluded by raying. that he supposed there could be no objection to the re ceiving of the petition. Mr. Flos[iSsow said, that without going into the particulars, or into the character of the the House could not think of entertainiug and re. trying a case which had been already disposed of in a Court of Justice. As to the other part of his coMplaint, if the Magistrate in question had mis conducted himself, he could be severely punished by the law; sod if the Petitioner had received inju ries, the law was open to hits and he might receive redress. Mr. B. Wtl.llaAhsts said, he had received in formation on the subject—the truth was, that the Petitioner. in May, 18 1 4 , was appeelaseCled uuder the warrant, not of Mr. Fletcher...lkt another Magistrate, on a charge of a political ''nature; whilst so in confinement, another Magistrate, well known to individuals in that House, the late Mr. Graham, received • letter dated from Portsmouth, from the Deputy-Inspector of the hulks, enclosing the affidavit of one John Harper. a convict, which stated, that about three years before, as he was return . ing home, he heard some disturbance, and hsvi'.g gone up to the spot, he saw the late Mr. Chadwell, of Beech-hall, near Bolton, much ill treated by two men, one of whom was John Lever, the peti tioner--that those persons vehemently swore that they would serve him the same way. and that thereupon he fell on his knees, and promised never to disclose what he saw ; he then ran home, and was so alarmed he could not sleep, nor did he inform his wife of what took place, and he afterwards received a new snit of clothes from those persons. Harper had been convicted of forgery, and was under sen tence of transportation, but other circumstances of strong suspicion having existed against the peti tioner, he was apprehended. Mr. Fletcher, as was his ditty, issued his warrant on the charge, but at the Ateliers, the friends of the deceatied refused to prosecute him, and the mans evidence against him was that of the convict, who should first receive the Royal pardon. It was by the greatest good fortune that these papers had .not been destroyed. The lion's mouth at Venice was not wider than the month of the Right Honour able Gentleman for charges of this sort. %Ir. Fletcher was a man of high respectability of cha racter. who had fur 2.2 years discharged the duties of • Justice with great credit. and he put it to the House whether it was probable that he should hate acted in the way imputed to him. He had further to state, on the authority of the Magistrates of Manchester, that there was not one word of truth in the assertiou so frequently made, that they had acted on the 16th August on the instructions of Government. They said that the responsibility of their proceedings don themselves only (Hear, hear) —and whether they had been right or wrong, they would, he (Mr. Wilbraham) be lieved, be called upon to *hew at the ensuing sista.
