The King in Council, or the Secretary of State was empowered to direct the departure from the kingdom of any alien whose presence might be considered dangerous to the trampoillity of the country, and • small penally was gauche(' to disobedience of the order in the first instance: If the Secretary of State had reason to suspect an intention on the pint of the individual to refure compliance with the order, he had the rower of causing him to be at once taken out of the country ; but if the alien could show an. good reason why the order should not be ei forced, he had the right of appeal to the P.ivy Council against the mandate of the Secretary of State. N..w what were the objections to the Irm o of 'ltc h powers? The first was, that it was a departure from the ancient policy end law of the reentry. He would not don that the presumption was in favour of a return to the ancient law ; but bitch presumption must in this, as in all other iii wooer% grit way to the necessity created by any temporary or permenesit emergency which might arise nut of the circumstances of the particular time. The Constitution and Government of this country would be unfit for the purposes for which they were framed, if they were not able to accommodate themselves to the circumstances of the time, but were compelled to submit to a clear and admitted evil. The llounurable and Learned Gentleman op ilopite (Sir J. Mackintosh), in the course of his speech un the preceding night, on a subject with which slits question was wholly uncounected, took occasion, rather utfailly, to go out of his way, in ur eter to create an titrfavourable impression against the Allen Act by a reference to, and an impassioned en comium on,Magna Charts. Reference was also mode to other reigns, and that of Elisabeth in particular WWI placed iii contrast with the present state of tl,e la* in this reap. ct. But no attempt had been rNe to shuns that the circumstances of the two Nods were the sum:. Any person unacquainted with Moos Charts, who heard the obseriations of the Hens. and Learned Gentleman, must have sup posed that some provisos° had bent made in it of touch greater liberality towards foreigners living in fhM . 0.11,11111, than those of the Alien Act—some principle laid dodo , the departure from which should mete us blush at the greater liberality of the Barons of the 13th century. Turtling, there here, to the provlanoi made in that great charter for regulating the recidence of strangers in this coun try. he found that it did not apply to aliens of eve., description. but that it was express ezcepe pees in favour of merchants; the expression was owner reercotores, and that very exception in favour of chime reereaforts proved that it was a pnvi. lege not applying to other strangers. And what en* she conditiuu atioexed to the clause. of »hods i.o ounce mss taken by the Honourable lest Learned ICesiceman ? it was ttiii publiti yrreliibeli,.•u. lev paultcly prohibited," the in toipretation of which was " oules• prohibited by . mu order of the King iu Council."—(Cheers from tilat Treasury Benches, returned by the Opposition.) Bet there was a subsequent clause which said, I. if they be subjects of • land at war against us, he which there may be found subjects of ours, alai are to be taken into custody, and if our subjects be ascertained to be safe there, then Moll they also be safe here."

The measure to which be alluded, was " A Ball for remedying the abuses arising nut of the Act for regulating the removal of the Pour." ''...(Cheers and laughter.)—Every body kitew of the el.use in Magna (Carta, which ran thus— " Nallus liber Ammo enplane', on imprint:new, nisi per judieiant purism gnomon, eel per kgent terra."—•' No free man shall be. apprehended or imprisoned except by the judgment of his peers, or by the law of the land."—They would see how far the learned authority to which he had alluded [Mr. Scarlet') thought it justifiable to go in departure from that principle in en enactment merely for the removal of an abuse. His Bill contained a clause en icting, that in all cars wherein a poor person applied to a Magostrate or Justice of the Peace fur an order of maintenance on the Overseers of the poor of the perish to which he belonged, it should be lawful for the said Ma. gistrate or Justice of the Peace to make inquiry into the previous character sod condition of such person, and if he should find that he had refused to work, or that distress had come upon him through his own misconduct or neglect, it should then be lawful fur the Magistrate or Justice of the Peace to commit him to the House of Correction, there to be kept to hard labour fin any time not exceeding-----."—(Hear, bear, hear.)—He would call, therefore ) upon geo. Orme° opposite to remember when they were pro. seeding to object to the renewal of the Alien Bill on the ground of its departure from the principles Of Magna Charts, to remember the sails. fiber koala whiter, sat it/petulance, ef.i per jadiciain TParities satorest.—(Laughter and cheers from the reasury beuches), and to coule with it the clau.e which be had cited from t he Poor Removal osll.—(Cheers from the Treasury benches.)—The hest ohjs-ction was founded on the liability of these powers to abuse in their exercise. Undoubtedly they were so liable—Meer, hear) —and it was Perhaps impossible to confer any powers which brould not be capable of being abused ; but of 'ldl the powers that could be conferred on the Ministers of the Crown, to be exercised on their revpoi.sibility, these were the least likely to be so khtped. The return which ao Hon. Gentleman opposite had moved fur, of the names of all persona who had been sent out of the kingdom under the powers of this Act, contained a list of only four risons who had been so removed since 1815. He did not mean to say that because no abuse of these powers bad taken place hitherto, that cir. cumstance was a complete justification of the Act ; but inasmuch as any cases of abuse tluit • Might have occurred would have affirded a strong objection to the enactment of such powers, although the absence of abuse would not entirely justify the act, )et it did ufford • strong presumption that such powers might be conferred without any great risk of their being abused. It might, perhaps, be said, that thought there was no fear of any abuse of these powers on the part of the Privy Cours e.' or the Secretary of State, )et they might be turned to the most mischievous purposes by some subordinate agents, over whom the Secre. tary could have no immediate control, and that ma. limits and unfounded representatiotte and coin• plaints might lead to an undue exercise of these powers. lii answer to such a supposition, lie could only state thus publicly, iii order to remove from the minds of foreigners any alarm on that head. that such complaints were not at all to be feared by them, aid any pasty who was the subject of complaint, and liable to the operation of this Act, might rely upon the powers of the law nut being put in force against him, but upon a full sad satisfactory inves tigation of the case, and of the truth and justice of such complaints.—(Herr.)—lt had been said, apart from all consideration of the abuse of its powers, that this Act was objectionable, because it might be pleaded by foreign Powers in justification of any act of rigour and hardship on their part towards British subjects in their dominions. But if ever such a case should arise of this Act being to pleaded, lie would appeal in answer to the lists of cases is which its powers had been enforced, and held up the just example of Englaud, not in justification of arbitratary and restrictive laws, but to show the manner in which such laws should be administered. Having thus humbly attempted to fulfil the task he had uudertaketr, of shewiog the existence and nature of the necessity on which Ile grounded his application for the renewal of the powers conferred by the Alien Act, and of arguing against the objections which lie had heard against it, all that remained for him was to repeat that it was on his own respoosibility that he had come forward with this proposal, with reference to no interest whatever bet what he con sidered as the exclusive interests of this country; and to reties, his pledge that as far as lie was him. self concerned nu the discharge of the trust thus reposed in his Majesty's Illsoisiers, the utmost pre csution should be used to prevent the injurious cr uel,' of those powers. He concluded by movitig "That leave be given to bring in a Bill to continue Act." im.,_ it asst props v d.,_l l the mare of rite utelsitre, viewed in c o itj onct i on .entli the necessity which hid been pleaded for it. It was in him • mistier of the %intim surprise and astonishment, this on such' kitsinds such a Measure as this could have been. proposed, he wound not say to a House of Coin mons, but to any assembly of Englishmen, to any body of men accustomed to the principles of • free goverment.--(Loud cheers.)--The alarm and apprehension with which he viewed this measure, was greatly increased by bean , it proposed o f t suc h gro h n d r , by • Itlieister wh ose transcendent talents he greatly admired, and whose character he highly rerpected, on his first entrance into his Pretest . % high offier,under circumstances which he might have rendered .o suspicion.. lie would assert, that on the principles which be had ringed as the ground of his application, carrying them to the lair extent, he might propose the ahrogetion of any one of the securities sod safeguards of our coil. emotional liberties. The powers of this Act en aided the Government to send out of the country, to banish from the hose of his choice, from the seat of his business, it might be from the sphere of all his fortunes, any foreigner living amongst us. And those powers were asked for on no ground whatever. but because there had been no example of their abuse, or. what wee still more extravagant, on the assurance of Setretaty of State to the British House of Commone, that they might trust to his responsibility for a security against soy abuse in their exercise —(Cheers)—and to the operation of such powers they were called upon on no weigh tier grounds than he had stated to subject 23,000 men who were living under British law !—(Hear, bear.)—The same grounds might with equal force have been urged in defense of the power of raising money by arbitrary imposts in the time of Charles I.; and he was tempted to apply to it the words of one of the greaten patriots of that period, 14 That he should hold liimselfjultifiable in with standing such an exercise of arbitrary power, even to the shedding of blood."—(Cheers.)—The average number of aliens permanently residing in this country, he took to be about 20,000. Up to the year 1793, it would not be denied that the Mi. Dieters of this country had no more power to remove an alien merchant living ill the City of London frotn the sphere of his business than they had to re move an English merchant.—(Hear, hear )—The fseeigner was then entitled to hit Habeas Corpus as well as the British subject. What would hive been said of any Minister of the Crown who should have desired Parliament in those days to pass a Btll Of Pains and Penalties (for such this was is effect) on any single alien merchant, on his mere assertion of clinger to the State from his longer continuance in the country Yet here was a proposal to pull • Sill of Pains and Penalties against 40,000 British subjects, he would call thins, foe while they were here they were living under the protection of Britsh laws, on the mere assertion by a Minims.r of possible danger to the State, and his promise that neither himself nor those under him would shine the power of such a Bill. 'fht Right Honour able Gentleman spoke of the permission and suf ferance of aliens to reside in this country un molested; and of the powers of the Aet never having been exercised, in a tone which implted that it wee too difference to them whether they lived here in the free exercise of a right secured to them by the law of the country, or under the sufferance and will of a Minister. What was that, be would ask. but the doctrine of pure and unmixed despotism ?—(Loud cheers.)—lt was in direct opposition to the princi ples of our constitution, and to the declaration of the illustrious Hooker, that " to live by one man's will, had always been found the cause of soy men's misery. —(Loud and repeated cheering.)— The Right Flonountble Gentlemen sad, we could not allow of the repeal of such powers as long as foreigners might came hither , and make this capi tal the seat of conspiracies 'gaunt foreign go. veronicas. He could well believe that the foreign governments that had been forced upon the people were naturally the object of their detestation ; but be could not imagine a more inconvenient place than London for the purpose of conspiring to overthrow a foreign government. How, fur in stance, could it inlayer the purpose of any body of discontented Neapolitans, in plotting and sr ranging the overthrow of the ',sterna admini stration of the Austrian Government, either at Turin, Milan, or Naples? Aud yet it was on the mere supposition of such a danger that they were called upon to pass thin odious law. The same pretext might have been set up in the first year of the reign of Charles ii. for the enact. 'sent of a Bill to give the same power to the Go vernment over 50,000 refugees who had been freely admitted into this country, in the preceding reigns. Bat what would have been thought of Lord Preston, the Minister of that day, if he had made such an op. plication His reasoning on the subject might have been rendered fully Se specious as that of the Right Hon. Gentleman, fur it was much more likely that those refugees should plot against Louis XIV.. by whom - they had been 'unjustly banished. The 'Period of Elizabeth's reign was an awkward one fur references in support of this measure. He remembered an argument in sup port of the Alien Bill having been founded in the House of Lords, in 1816, on a supposed quota tion from that reign wit;i respect to the exercise of the royal prerogative iu the banishment of Scotchtnen from England. That argument was revived in that (the Commons) House in support of the Alien Bill of 1818; and it was afterwards discovered that the precedent quoted was founded as a particular statute of Henry VII. He was ischned to give as little credit to the precedent drawn from the same reign by the Right Hon. Gen. demur, of the Order in Council to the Magistracy of the City of London to " expel such foreigners as should he found therein belonging to no congre gation." But admitting its authenticity, the lest part of the order showed that it was aimed at foe reign Catholics, with whose countries it was highly probable this nation wss then at war. The Right lion. Gentleman said that the word, nisi publics probibiti, in Magna Charts, meant " unless they were prohibited by an order of the King in Council;" that was the customary styleof the Right Hon. Gem tleman's interpretation of such passages. The point, however, might remain for him (Mr. Peel) and Lord to settle between them—(Laughter)—for the who was still looked upon as a great Wl in Weststiostersholl, expressly said, that it " by Act a Parliament;'--(Cheer. and .7 v.- • ' • • latigitter.)—..The Motu lion. Gentiefhen was merely not to leaf's, thoughlie kept it out of ought in h..' commentary on the v.ord merealores in the chime iif AI ague Cherie, that merchants were almost the only travellers at that period. With respect to the clause relating to forei,.eriers in this country its time of war; wheti the male in which wars were Ken . rally cortiell on in that elle was considered, it would he acbstowlt:d . rd sot Jetta liberil clause; and hr sgettld, think be *4 cotomitting a lihrl oil the clearticter of thisnatinti he made it it boost that ore the rupture of the Teen of Amiens, we had tint has... Hue to tnessuree of reprisals on the persoirs and property of Frenchmen in this country fur the violation of throe of Pettish subject. in France. Mr. H. TWISS defended t h e Alien Pill on the ground of the richt of any cusatry to wholly exclude forentsiets, and a fortiori to dictate the terms on which they . should he p. e mitted to reside in such country. The claw* in Magee Charts relative to the metehania, had evidently a merely commercial application. •tid was intended to protect foreign merchants from grievous and arbitrary imposts on the im portation of their merchandise. He coutended that there was a loot series of Acts, far more hostile in spit it t• foreign. Cr. thin she Alis , Billorhieb had been passed at various times; and their teatime proved that it was she uniform feeling of our ancestors to exclude aliens from permanent residence in this country. If the construction put by Ihe Hourier. able and Learned Gentleman (Sir James Mackietnab) on the words nisi public* prohibili, were correct, end if aerie word* were to be token so mean • prohibition bp, Act of Parliament, the use of the words in that mese reused the possibility or a necessity at some future period of a, a., similar is principle to the Alien Bill, to have been is the criniewpetiou of the military ji ' is by vlinia that docu ment wits fradsed.—(Cheers from the T Beateres.)—. It was asstril.d that the Bill was only to (ratify Foreign States, by enabling Ministers. to refuse an asylum to their obnoxious sulijerts ; but he thouilit it was the more ewes, sary,from the freedom of our other tom itutions, that we should afford them the security of this Act. They had been told that this was • war measure, and so it Ives, sod It would he found oo comparison with the first Bill, that as peace had di minished the necessity, so the present measure was deprived of all its severe cheeses. It was segued that a country like England, which hod existed so lour, was aot likely to be overturned by the inschinatious of a few foreigners, but It was not slump' by the strong that the strong were pet down, as if, in defiance of human calculation's, the most pooled*, edified were found to crumble away seder the operation of Influences that were suttees', of agencies that were imper ceptible. Sir R. WILSON regretted that after seven years of peace there was no hope held out that we should re-enter the pate of European society. But the present firmed with the view to gratify those Goverisments oho were associated together to arrest the march of civilisation. If, as was contended, the prerogative of the Crows did exist for all the purposes which the Rill intended, let it be ex erted, hut let tie have no Alien Bill, which was disgraerfal to the country. That this Bill was for the purpose of bringing the meitory into connexion wills foreign police, be was quite assured from a fact which he would mention. Two Italian gentlemen who resided in Switzerland were object, of suspicion to the Antrim &semisweet, sod their Weisser esuleavoured to bare them arrested s of one the arrest wits effected, and the other, who was the More oh deings, escaped. Shortly after the one who bad bees arrested was set at liberty, and he came to Enabled, where the very first question put to him by the Alieseffiee was, " Where is the other officer?" That, in his opinion, was perm? positive of the evionezioe of foreign police with this country. The Right Hon. Gentlemen boasted that only two caws bad occurred since 1550 of persons Whig sent out of this mney, but that was nothing to the purpose. Such an arglirmat as that might be used at the Snit establishment of the leptieition. Arbitrary power was never abused at its Seat ertaletishmene ; thi eerie! mast work a short time, and therm it would amply redeem the time that had been lost at dib begisterag. He Aid not teem the Right Ike. Secretary of abusing the power; but it was • power which be weak, not tree to any individual ; he would out barest it to him self. It was altogether impossible to prevent foreigners who were oppressed from communicating their hopes ea/ Fears to their fellow.conntrymen. Notwithstanding the Noble Lord's Foreign Enlistment Bill, the South America,. had obtained their freedom, and notwithstanding the Alien Bell, Italy would be free, and the Greeks would ultimately prevail. Mr. SCARI.ETT paid, that from experieece of the indif ference of the House to the effect of coasts tutiossal argument, he had but little hope of the with any effect. He had hopes that when the Noble Lord on Om former occasion brought forward the mermen that it would be fenthe ►last time, and the events which kild oc curred in Europe aithin the last two years, and particularly the death of Bonaparte, would have removed every ;done fur renewing the swessare. It always appeared to Ida to be • measure framed in Utter igeorance of the national chant. ter. There was no country that was so delusively astioust, and It was absurd and defile to imagine that any number of person is this country could be isiseeted by the COMllllllllCatiou of foreigners. But he feared the Bill had souther object, that there was • soft of etigagemest to pat the police of this country on the Saline fwd. lug as that of oiler countries in Europe. It was observed by a celebrated writer, that it was one of the greatest evils resulting from the detained's of the Roman Emperors that persons accused of political offences eould find refuge no where. He denied the authority claimed for the prerogative, and if any one would but take the pains to look through the Statute Rook, they would and from time to time Acts of Parliament which setborired the Crowe to expel foreigners lb. kingdom. Indeed as fat back as Henry V. there was se Act for that parpo.e : a plain proof that we such prerogative existed as wee now con tended for. Os • set et like the present, hero/vine • great question of constitutional law, he *bonito' that at least the lawyers in that Howe would be found to be an exeeption to those who looked beyond the interests of the mooted. He was s o rry to observe that his Hotioarehle and Learned Friend opposite, *hes the indifference of the public to shit measure was alluded to, had shewn by his countenance the satisfaction which he felt at • measure like the present beater Introduced by • Minister of the Crown; hat he (Mr. Sear. lett) had tittle doubt that if it were proposed to tepee, t h e Mabee' Corpus Act, and the usual topics were istgeel, the Homiurable and Learned Gentlemen would receive it with the same satisfaction—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Serjesnt ONSI.OW said, the satisfaction which hie countromsee etpreared, as noticed by his Hon. and Learned Friend, was at the good sense of she country, which looked at the measure as one not dangerutta to the country, or to the interests of liberty in general. With regard to the Bill, Ise did certainly think that the little intermit which the people of England took In it was the strongest testimony in is favour.. He thought there was a sufficient justification for horn/acing this meesute from the necessity of the use, not that he would be understood as coinciding with the doctrine because e t b ew were I I , n , r and s Le s t a a r i n e e l d G eao e n a t t h ( e M b r ,;o Sc k r!e pec t t :t oe s t the mode of expelling foreigners, that, therefore, there was no such power to the Crown by the common law. Dissenting as he did from that doctrine of his learned Friend, he still thought, if 'hem had hers no precedent, the seceasity of tho case would justify the introduction of ibis measure. Mr. SCARLETT explained. Mr. DENHAM said that it was with regret and shame for the House of Commons, this he had heard lb. opening speech of the Right Hoe. Gentleman which mated upon them to pass the measure solely upon his responsibility end be had spoken as If be were the sole depositary of the powers of the Bill, but every use of the three Secretaries of State bad also that enormous sod Isirless power. The House had been told, that only four CUMs had neenrred; but what did the House knew of awe cases ? What did the Right Hon. Gentlemen himself know of ahem eases? They were deducted on secret informatioa, by secret witnesses, and the tomcod,* was also secret. He (Mr. Drawee) knew not but every wt. of those cases might be a cane of grows abuse. Such powers were generally requited to be abused, sued be thought it • street ground to distrust the character*? that ass who required such a power.
