As to the character given aniallse.by the liable klaseips that : it ,sins rash innovation aria - a 'lima tor revolution, this, no doubt, hid the effect at the time; hot how must they be surmised at the conduct of the •Nottle • Iliarcpais on the next night, when he admitted that he was ignorant of Lord Clancarty having been abroad while he was in the office of Pnstmastet- General ? The Inkiness of the (Ace might be done be deputy, and the holder might lieallowed leave of ab sence, but responsibility could not he intermittent. 'lto then referred to the two Hills which had been brought in in lftli and 1813 for reducing this ofiCeer ie which these arguments had never been 111110. He ought to express his surprise that this ari:fled been left out of the list for the reduction ocwhich the Bill of 1847 was brought in. Hteharl Itifore stated the reason* why he did not include the Irish Postalsatere; though if he succeeded now, Olwo!ion to that effect would follow of coulees He peaticuied those who were wavering in opinion, to beware of the dread which had been before awaken ed in them for the influence of the Crown, which wes described to he endungered by his motion ; he defied the 'tegennity ot any one to give so fearful an effect to that argument agsiu. He thought be bad brought shove who opposed then condi:- signally to say, that the Government was exectl/ V,OOO/. to expensive, and that there were no more our lets than two places too many in the Govern nittit. He compared the argunieuts for the de fence to the last miserable shifts of a spendtrift to eentioue his intercourse with .‘ those Gentlemen of another persoasiore" after having needy exhausted himself in teaming the m)sterteepf Z. The distress of the country ought to enforce the reduc tion of this place. When distress compelled them ins dispense with luxuries, surely they could best 'ef•. without that for which they had a duplicate. • Tbe country wits dirtreinsd, end ought to forego the luxury of a double Postmaster. He drew other 'arguments for hit motion from the intelligence of the community, the increase of which hart been so ably manifested by his Noble Priemd the other metal on the nue/lama, and the locreesed ioflisence of the Crown by dicier..4e screotte offices, pith he debt, and increese of colonial possessions, which made the office less necessary to the Crown, on the other. The neglect of such improve.. meats had stimulated tbet cry ror Iti.eform which resounded through the land, which was te wehoed not alone from the dense manufacturing population, but followed the selstare plough,— He expatiated on the datigers of continually Owen .ing public opinion on these subjects, of stern:Mpg and vexing it iu the course, irresieltble es it must in emsclusiou be, and instead of preperiag channels in which they might guide it with safety, press ing within its bound+ and eggrpeeting it! force. The chief anxiety which he felt 'spoil the eubjeet .*as, that a hewer system might be adopted, not that hr thought the adoption of the measure would be unimportant, but that the rejection of it would be . accompanied with ciecunenaocee which would dis appoint the lingering hopes of the people, and con tiro their worst suspicions of the House of Conn- cheris,l—The Noble Lord coo t-holed by moving a Re eilsitinn to this erect I— " 'Mt an humble Address be prevented to his Majesty, preying that be would he graciously plea:ed to direct that the ofs;e of one of the Joist P.istinsusra4evieral should be •bolishrd,•nd the *Mari saved to the ptitthe." The CtianceLLoa of the EXCIMIQUER hoped Omit the House of Commons wools] never allow their decisions to be influenced by any apprelten stons of popular clamour, but that the House would come to a calm and deliberate deciaion upon the merits of the question, nor could he suppose that the people of England would judge nniastly the proceedings of Parliament. The I\uble Lord had adverted to the subject of Re burnt, but that questiou hail lately been decided afar a full discussion, and in that decision he had i'. doubt the House spoke the sentiments of the couotry ; and those who opposed that motion would return with as much confidence to their apnea tu entre as those who had endeavoured to seise a fleet ing popularity upon the question. He now came to the question more immediately before the House, and in the first instance, he could nut avoid remark ing that the Noble Lord had taken rather an ass tsted course in bringing forward a measure which hid bees. already decided. 1k knew he had not ex silly gone beyond the privilege* of the House, but ate all events he had chosen a course extremely in cmovenient.—(Cheers from the Opposition).—llf a •stoestion sulemloy decided by Parliament was set to •be considered at rest for the Session, he could not ow where their labours were to end. The Noble • Lord had abstained from entering into the merits of the question, and as these had been so 11116. dts ctrs•ed upon a former OeCt99oll, he should follow fist exiimple. Hut he must -dem, .the imputation that the maintenance of this office had been feuded upon the ground of preserving the 0h5... ) elice of the Crows,. The Postmasters-General juinsly formed a Board for transecting the im portstit concern; of the Post-Office; they Went jointly respousihte, end jointly conducted the duties of the noi s e. Beiridol, lie would ask, was a' tight to intrust the disposal of two mil liens of the pith:ic money to vise person ? He liiiew the illostriimi character station of these Noblest-a precluded the poodbility of suepicion, wes it proper that en trust a sum should be louder the direcituit of sty one person, and upon • his vide and iudividisal responsibility ? But what ever might be raid upon the iiients of the question, the °We could not be abolished upon the grounds of. ecnimasy. The•weestion was, whether the mu asp:ernes of the office should be intrusted to • Bused composed of four or five gentlemen, or to two Nchleinen. Whatever sight be the result of the qnestiou, upon • which, nu doubt, the wisdom of Parliament would properly de ,' (-Ale, it most be admitted that the pistil was • very inctiovement moment. An inquiry hid heeu /et nit foot to investigate the ilettet, of the office, 'ma k the details bring Wand too complicated for the apvissbui of the Ttemory, it was his tatention to • ieforrlor a sisrlimpentary inquiry.; and under these cuitatisesneet, said pendia( 'such au inquiry, he • was sure tub H.,ora would see the propriety °fits .o.twiAretheir unworn to • future occasion. tbe osiomatimalkaded .- ' .., biPtlFKßiAbi ,o n .

He.begged the attention of the-House to the office of Paymaster-General. The Committee of 1814 had recommended the abolition of one of them, and in so doing they acted wisely, for the responsibility tumid fall upon one; the other was only nominal. When he hod the honour of intro-' ducing a measure to Parliament in 1814, for regu lating various offices the office now under discus. sion was included, auil he then had the satisfaction of having the support of a eery distingoiehed friend of his, the then Prondeot of the Board of Con. trot ; and although he had uot the happiness of seeing him (Mr. Canning) iu hie place, yet he had the pleasure of seeing the present President (Mr. Wynn). thaw whom um mint bad a higher ye nerutiou for the pnvileges of she ICrowil mod the entiqoity of office. yet Imes that opeastois he had the honour of his vote.—(Hear, hear.) — His Right Hon.

Mr. HIJSKIIIION said Ire should not trouble the I House with soy opinions of his, if be had ton bees alluded to by his Honourable Friend who had just rat down. He had atm referred to the opinions of a Right Honaourshle Friend (Mr. Claiming), who was absent on account of slight indisposition. As fir as related to himself, he wished to supply that part of the history of the triumetion. which laid heen omitted by hie Himunible Friend. His flonourible Friend had devoted much of his time to the abolition of useless offices and sinecures, arid to endeavour to provide souse other means to enable the Crown to recompeuee past seines'. In that undertaking be (Ur. H.) /nein shag with him. However, having failed in the siitempr, a C omm ittee was appointed to.

His Hotsouoable Friend recommended the abolition of one of the Postmasters-General. Accordingly, some of the officer, from the Post. office were called and nominee , . end after a full examination, the Cousonthiscame 14 &Moraine. tint, that the office of Pustcoaster-General' did ont come within the denoinistabon of offices which should he abolished. Kew under these cir cumstances he did ruat see wiry any person whobed supported his Houourable Friend in 1814, might not, with perfect moist...my, oppose hem on the present occasion. His Honourable Friend had alluded to. the Address of AMA .Beoinn, and he would tell him whet the.(lovernmeutlisil done since then. The address was passed in the latter end of Jane, and before the meeting of Pm liameut the Treasury fbuod they would not have time to have completed their intptirsm s and there. fore smote to a determination to renew all. t:* corn. • missions (ccost in the departments of the Customs and the Excise, and he thought it would be heeler to follow up that address, by waiting until the vv. bolt of these inquiries had hero luiciv known.

What, Sir, were we to he Wit Oust the Gwyn nurd -e-tain these men tofiye to preserve its iiinsience ? The reenter Euglautl, these old liiidorical names whicti n ve were taught to reverence, were, it seemed, to be purchased foe 3 00W. • .year to du their duty by the Crow, slut the country. Uposi this ground the motion be.; came extremely important. They might as well iimert a sum in the estimates to purchase a certain mainbee of Peen in order to preserve the miltience of the Crown.—(Cheera.) Mr. HOLIIR Summits said, the principle which had regulated his rote upon the lag (wet:pion NA should upon this was, lime disposition lie saw to smack the iitatitutiotis of the tioutitry. All 1 through the country county meetings huh been held to petition P4rliminent to relieve their dis tresses, and as there would he always found men to take advantage of the distresses of the country, they generally found that oily thing was iiitioducetl rather thou the objects fur which the meetings were assembled. He was sorry to find the seine pint had been introduced into and House ; and that , tp e night One tax, to-morrow another tax were to he teptaltd, this office and that office were to be abolished, and where they were to stop he could not judge.—(Laughing on the Opposition aide.)—But the moment of public excitement was not the time when that coarse should be pursued. It we* not with a view to this particular question he should oppose the motion, but with a view to preserve our institutimis, which he thought were attacked. Mr. BRIGIFF differed entirely from the lion. Gentleman who had just Hit down; for he con ceived this was the proper time to iuse l stiipite, and to chew the people that the Hours of Commons were really the guardians of their iatierete. He thought sufficient gr ounds hid been made out why the o ffi ce should he abolished, and he sincerely hoped the itietiota would be carried. Mr. Titestayee understood that a pledge had been given to abolish all sinecure*, and he conk! not see how that pledge would be tedeetned until the office of Postmaster-General were abolished. Mr. STUART WOZTLET said it was Ina intention to support the mistioti.—e(Hear. hear.)—When it was last before the House, he had opposed it with considerable hesitation. Had it been merely a question, whether Owe should hive been one or two Postautaters-General, he should have ;to doubt which grey to vote; bat when he cot,.idrrrd the attacks made upon the revenue of the country. and the attempts made to repeal taxes and abolish offices, and when he perceived the tune mid temper which prevailed through the contery, he did not wish to be dragged au to vote awry our establishments. But that spirit now seemed tiehave subsided, and he could with the mere confidence vote for the present motion. But if Government gave a pledge that the matter should be inquired into, awl that Parliament woold afterwards have an opptiriuudy of pronouncing en opinion upon it, that would alter the case materially. If it were the single question aye or no, whether one Postinsster should be removed, he certainly should say aye. Lord LonFioNEOERRY said, that atter the full discussion which had been gives on a former occa sion to this subject, it would not be necessary for him to say more than merely to put the question oil its fair grounds, and lie must say, that whether' he considered it an adroiiiiittrative or a financial question, his opinion remaired unaltered. Theo how did the question stand ? The Committee of 1797 had recommended the maintenance of two Potstmasters-Genetal. The Coinmittee of lel7 hid determined that it would be inexpedient to intrust the duties of the office to a Board, and that the office of Postmaster-General did nor come with in the scope of what his Right Hou. Friend celled s sinecure. He could nut agree with his lion., F r iend b e hind ('lr. Wortley), that the causes which had produced his manly vole had ceased to exist, he saw no ;woof of moderation of temper on the other side of the House; sod be hoped the [louse would never be induced to found their de cisions wet any clamour that might be mired. Hlr flottourable Fries(' (Mr. Banker) had referred to the address with which the last Session had been closed. That address had recommended tot inquiry into the several Insulates of the revenue; tied in fact every single branch of the revenue had hero iraquireel into worm thee, except the Excise suit Customs. An inquiry woo actually tot foot into this very office, arid the House should milady and dispsssumately await the result, for it was not to be supposed that Parlionseat could examine the subject so coolly mod with SO much impartiality, as five Cominis , imunero ups. their emirs. He there fore hoped the Horse would see the propriety of hearing the Report of the Commitoimiers before they . pronounced a Boat Opinion. When the Coro missemers had rejoined on this office, the House would have the whole of the particulars before it, sad dealt. and not till then. consistent with their votes of last year, would it be competesit for them to take the question into their consideration. Mr. WILBERFORCE said, the questiou had ait- Sowed an importance from the ground on winch it had been defended, fir beyond what it merited from the amount of the sum to be roved.—(Hear.)-- t was called in this House an office to support die iefluence of the Crown ; but there wins tumult r raid a (venter. wings by which it was geuerally known. .

He asked, *hat would be dime should one Postmaster be sheen+ ?

Were they public accountants? Did they gore security? He begged the fluter to recollect the ground* on which this of f ice had been drfa uled. ea part of the pitivtiage of the Crown, sod as such the Noble M•rquia would not consent to touch it. This was a doctrine quite novel in that Hover; it Ins not l.rnachrd whet, Mr. Burke or Mr. Dun niug made their motions; it was s doctrine irrecuil ctlabk with the Coustitelion, and would give au. overpowering weight to the Cmwu. lie culled upon the Treasurer of the Navy, who spoke e short time ago of the painful duty which he had haul to perform in dismissing some of the clerks if his office, to stand up and defend, if he could, this duplicate Postmaster. The Noble Mn gulo had frequently in his mouth the phrase 4• a welt-um der•tood economy ;" he should like to he informed whet mesiiiing the Noble Lord had attached to it. It reminded him of the hoes of fitulitirus 4. Nut bud timely, or good, Bat merely sail. andermood." On the subject of the iiilhieoce of the Crown, it was sufficient to shew that it was prep.+seron•ly large to reutind the House that sixty-fire millions passed ammully through the hands of the Execu tive, and that in the collet:null of the revenue 4,150,000 f. was annually expended, and this, be sides the army, navy. and tniscelleneous, amount. tog to thirteen millions more. With this eaten-11"e source of corruption at command, it teas an insult to the understanding to talk of motimmiiiig the In fluence of the Crown by keeping up this useless office. Mr. Moan' said lie shoul•l have been prepared t o h ave vo t e d f ur th e Noble bird's motion if the Hon. bleinber for Clore Castle hail made out she office of second Postmaster to he a mere sinecure, but of that be had mot given en iota of proof ; so far from it, during tile loot year 2,000 Reports were referred to them, and their opinions nimuted on them ; besides 1,800 warrants fur the payment of money hid ,been passed slid examined by them ; sod was each a 'dare to be considered as a slat - cure ?
