The Small Notes BJI west through a Committee, and wait reported without •ny amendment. The Register Offices (Scotland) Bill was read a second time. CORN IMPORTATION BILL. On the motion of Earl BATHURST, the Order of the Day for their Lordship. being sammoued for the third read ing of the above Bill was read. The Earl of LAUDERDALE said be could not vote for the passing of the BilL Their Lnedshipa ought to retied on what they had hitherto done. He tried as much as any man to quell the clamour out of doors when the Coro Act passed in ISIS, when they were told it was passed for the purpose, of enriching the laedowner at the expense of manufacture,•• To get a monopoly of grain was impossible; there was sot aa argument urged against the passing of the Corn Act, that hod' -.sot been proved to be 'holly false; they ought, tbeeefore,be., tore they altered the law as it now stood, to passe. The Neal' 1101 thew quoted& part of thespeech of the Earl of Liverpool, swayer to • motion of the-Moguls of Lansdowo, fur a Com-, .mittee to inquire into the state of the Coro LAWS two yeses back, when the Noble Earl (Liverpool) said, that further legislation would do mischief, and that it was with great difficulty be brought himself to vete for the pass ing of the Corn Act, anti be was of opieioa if it , bad nut passed when it did, that it ought not to have ponied at aIL Ha(the Earl of Lauderdale) would ask lOW Lordships, was it ,proper, in the face of this speech, made only two years age by his Majtsty's Prime Minister, which weal to say that it would be ruinous to the country to alter the system, to brio' forward the peened to a, and that after • revolution bad taken place in the agriculturel 'lletereal of the country? He would ask, was it right that they should isteodoce this new system after they had depee ailed all inquiry? As to the Report of the Committee of the other House of Parliament, it agreed in nothiog but that it was Impossible to give any relief. He was of opinion that they oatht to stead steady to she doetrise which had carried them through fur the last six years. One grand project of his Majesty's Ministers was, to lend four maltose to the agriculteriate; and the reason given is support of it was, that it utoold ion-ease the currency of the country. It was a taloa gebbelple, fur the people of the country would always eel • currency for themselves. He would give his negative be the measure, if it were only on the consideration of the' impropriety of the time at which it was brought forward. Hi. Lordship coscholod with moving that the Bill be read the third time ibis day three month.. The Earl of HARROWBY hoped to be favoured with the atteetiem of the House whilst he made a very few observe lions in reply to the Noble Earl. The prises' measure was owe which, after considering five or air other plass, had been sppreared of by the other Howse of Parliament, and be &sled that his Majesty's Illiaisters could justly be liable to any charge of incoasisteeey fa adopting it. Taking it to be correct that wheat could he bought, as stated by the Noble Earl !Lauderdale), at DIIIOI.IC for 3Se. per quarter, if a bad harvest were to occur here, the same causes would operate on the Costinent ; but there was another eaves always in ape. ratios, and that was this: the moment this cavalry was ia east of corn, the price directly 'dewed in (rosiest markets 205.0 r 2Se. per quarter, and that might always be coasted upon in estienatiog the protection afforded by the Sill. He would maintain that 70e. per quarter now was a better pro. tectio• to agriculture than 801. per gooier was iu ISIS. With respect to the core in warehouse, be thought the pro seat mower/ would have the effect of bringing it oat on the sherbet prudently, which must be the most beneficial way IR which it could be introdeced. It was to be observed that Acre was no political measure but if generally bad ia its effects, hod some cam peneating quality ; ao though use doubtedly there was some great seterieg sustained by the agriculturist, yet the low price of food had gusts • stimulate to our commerce, whkh wee sensibly felt he all the manatea tering districts. Without going at say farther length, he trusted their Lordships would nut adopt the motion of the Noble Earl. The Earl of LAUDERDALE sad the Earl of HAR. ROWDY mutually esplataed. Lord ERSKINE said it was aekeowledged that the dis. tresses ofwgrieulture were aggravated by the return to cash payments, and it was therefore most creel to tell the agri calterisve that they suffered nothing, because 70s. wow was equal to 80s. in 1815. He had before gives full reedit to bis Majesty's Ministers for the manly part they acted le passim The Coro Law of 1885, and he was rot so much the pond lb blame them sow as some Noble Lords were. He really believed that t►ey had been sliding se long listening to the lectures of political theorists, that t►ey knew not what they were about. Hit should vote for the amendment of the Noble Lord. Earl GROSVENOR thought the ml question fur the House to consider was, whether this was a na called fur by the country, and by the agricultural late►ns. So far from it,,,Abat though it was brought is as a boon to theist, they had eagerly petitioned against it, and that alone would make him hesitate in giving his assent. The mai f We to every other interest except the agricul tural. It was clear from what bad bees said, that it was fa vourable to foreign' trade ead to tbs iaeresse of ue, fur the duties imposed would have that effect, There was au other it&SOU which shootd induce their Lordships to postpone the tooneore. The value; of stoney nu not yet 99.1ixed, bat aim! very material alterations might yet tate place. On every consideration that be could ewe lbe subject, mad par ticularly as the country was agate= it, be hoped the measure would be postponed. Lord REDESDA LE opposed the measure, as founded on • wrung principle, and repeated his former objeetiona to the system of averages. The Erirl of CA It N A RYON said the main argument ■gnisat the prase= measure had bees only gkinced at in the coarse of the discussion, but if the Noble Earl at the bead of the Trea sury was in his place ou Taarday gest, os the readieg of the Small Notes Hill, he should ohs\ endeavoar to call their Lordship,* attention to it: he meant the attempt (attempt he called it, fur he did not think that even the power of Par liasteut meld complete is) to raise the value of the currency. With respect to the present measure, he thought it more eli gible than the law as it stood at present ; he should therefore vote against the amendment and in favour oral* KID. The Esri of H MOW WBY and the Earl of OA RN A RVON anutuallyesylained. The Earl of DARLINGTON thought the Bill ill timed, 'inadvisable, and ill.judged„ and in some respects mischiev ous. When it was first proposed in the other House, it was as • measure of relief so the agriculturist; bet when the Bill come to be unmasked, it emoted over most parts of the country with which be wee acquainted a great degree of alarm, which still prevailed, as was apparent from the Peti. Holm on their Lordships' table. He heartily concurred in the amendment of the Noble Earl. The House then :11;;reIOntiteamendisent, when there appeared— Content.....

The Howse went into • Committee on the Bill for grant ing Pensions and All a to the Servants of her late Majesty. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stated that the sum of 2,2851. would be the total amount [ranted, and that Sieard, Maitre d'Hotel to the Queen, would have • sa lary of 4001. a year, and that would be the highest. NO persons should receive pensions except those who had held domestic 'jingoes@ in the Queen's Household. Mr. HUME suggested the propriety of granting 'hove al lowaoces us vacancies occurred in the pension list. The al. towage's to the servants of Qiees Charlotte had been grant ed out of the pension list. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, these pensions were so very few, that it would be inadvisable to place them ris the pension list. 'Fhe Resolution for grantiug the sum of 2,2851. was then agreed to. The Hoses then resumed. The Report wavordered to be received to-morrow. THE LOTTERY. ' The Lotteries Bill passed through • Committee. Several amcudments were made in the Committee the House re. gamed, the Report was brought up, sad ordered to be taken iota farther consideration to-morrow. Mr. HUME moved that it be printed.—Ordered. RETAILING OF BEER BILL. Mr. G. LAMB presented a Petition Cons Country Brewers, praying that the Retailing of Beer Bill might not pass tutu a law. Mr. F. BUXTON felt thin Bill to be so objectionable, that he looped at soy rate there would be time allowed fur mature discussion. _ . _ Mr. HUME lipped that his Hon. and Learned Fries(' would hike no other soiree of what was urged than to allow time fur discussion, as the monopoly of the brewers was as evil w►ich ought no longer to be endured. MONCK approved of the 8 , 11, because it went to do. strop the pernicious monopoly, to whieli many of the brewers were opposed, sad looked to the opportunity of a free trade ,to extend their own with advantage to themselves sad the Mr. LOCKHART said that the petitioners could not pre lead that the Bill would bring any injury to the public— while it was by oo means evident that the capital of the ►oorat brewer world at all suffer by throw*/ the trade open. Mr. H. GURNEY opposed the claim of the petitiourra to the continuance of l b s monopoly. Mr. BROUGHAM bail no wish but for the fullest &s -cission; but ho could not allow the remarks made to pass without observation. It was feared that the Bill weal to injure considerable property which was at present protected by law is a monopoly. This was a very great mistake the monopoly was no protected by law, nor would the property be subjected to role by duiu: away the monopoly. Public. bootees might now be multiplied at the will of the blsgis trate*, sod the properly of lbe brewers and publics.. was liable to be affected in the same hay, whether the Bill should pass or not. If the Bill should pan, there would not be one public-house more formed out that atessiat. It oily wed to license the sale of beer i■ shops, which for the health and morals of the lower orders was most desirable This was no interfereoce wish the direct trade of public. horses, because their busius se was to accommodate guests upon their premises. Certainly brewers could nut be injured by it. If they complained of the loss of business, without re mindiag them of die danger they si►esdy stood io from water sod good beer, or mentioning thst expedient for in ertia's' the consumption of emir article, by glviog jest me , be mot say he could trot see how holiest brewers, who intended to do justice in their business, with • large capital already engaged, could have say reason to dread that the trade should be opened. However, if the hiewors required to be beard on one side, the public would have • similar right on the other. There could be on better resent' given fur this monopoly than that which was about to he requested of the Home, in • petition from the keepers of public-houses on the Dover road, that the steam vessels might be prevented from carrying all their customers, and nu hot water allowed to be converted into steam except dur ing the winter months, or white the Thames was frozen Over —(Laughter.)—Tbe discussion on the Bill was then lard foe Tuesday next, and the Petitiuo was ordered to be printed. Mr. S. WORTLEY, adverting to the heavy duties recently Niel on British woollens imported Mier Portugal, wished to know of the Noble Maumee if Government had bees in any communication wit► the Court of Portugal ou the subject ; for unless he could have some assurance that his emit,- toents could be relieved from the effects of that polity, he should feel it Ws duty to bring t►e subject before the House certifies the next Session ? The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said that the new doles bad 'seen laid on by the new Government, contrary to the atipulatiJas of tba Portugal Treaty of IMO This Go verament was "gaged In discussing the subject, but he con formed that he mold sot see his way it, sod be could bol be surprisesllf the Hos. Mealier fur Yt.rkshire were compelled, for want of a satisfactory explanation, to bring forward his motion. Mr. DEMON asked if the Noble Marquis could hold out any prospect of redeeraium bus promise of the curly part of the &seas, of establiabiug a third Gestral Assist to the ►ome commies? The Martinis of LONDONDERRY said that the plan of a third Assize was so far matured as In he ready fur ap• pliestion in the Home Counties. It would take place in the winter months, and would be confined in operatics to a mere gaol delivery. Mr. W. SMITH brought in a Bill for the better pre►ention of Clandestine Marriages. He proposed to have it printed and dit.trilinted, that it might be well considered during the vacation, and disroseed early in the nest Session. The Bill was then road, articled to be printed, sad read a saz•uad time ibis day these mouths. POOR LAWS. Mr. NOLAN rose to move for leave to being is • Bill to alter sod seal the Pour Lowe. He stated bus object to be the impro►ement of the condition of the poor ou o•e • L an d- on the other the reelectioa °l i the 'aimless hopesed for their maintenance. He thought OW the present condition of the poor, sod the great stems required for 'heir relief, were sufficient reasons fir nomplyiog with the deotauds of the While for some Microgram of the system. He referred to the Reports of thelrower Clononitters fur other proofs of this ne cessity. Among t h e cassia of most influence on this subject he reckoned that of population, which had increased 30 per cost. in 00 yeses. The population iif the whole kingdom he took from the returns at 21836,007. if the demand fur labour had corresponded with this increase, it would be the strongest proof of the nation's prosperity which could be of. freed. The result of their own inquiries unfortunately de. rested any such trope. It then became the dutyof Parliament to devise means fur turning as much of the redundant labour as possible to a profitable and useful account. He would first stale the rate of increase in pauperism, which had grows ten fold since 1750, and now it was discovered that no less then one person in every tea received in some degree or tither parish relief. If the increase were to go on with • corns. speeding increase of population, the expense would swallow op the entire of abe lauded reveries, upon which it mainly fell. No one would deny the necessity for some remedy. Two modes bad been proposed. One had been offered by his Hon. and Learned Friend (the Member for Scarboroigli) which appeared. to hint of too violent a character—that of getting rid ar alms 1111 possible of the whole charge of ',aria' relief. Hem question of the Poor Laws were Dow Mai to be agitated, he might have great difficulty in determining for them. But considering the period during which the law had existed—considering that the class of persons chiefly Interest ed was that of the lowest sad poorest—he could nut suddenly resolve to tut them off from the resaurce of seven or eight millions which were mow found necessary for their support. He mu.t consider any such plan as one full of danger, and very likely to produce rxtessive discontent and tumult. He spoke after some deliberation and reeertioo on the abject, and it did appear to him that the Poor Laws were of themselves by no means to be considered detrimeatal to the country; on the contsary, he believed it world be found that they had been highly beneficial to the general interests. He could not help remarking that from the tone of their first enactment in the rely of Elizabeth, in a comparison with all the nations around, it was observable that the poorer climes of England were far above the same classes in suy other coo atry, and bad made much greater advances in civi lization that, any people of the same class in the civilise , ' world. The superiority of the English poor over those of Ireland and Scotland, in all the circumstances belonging Witte internal regulations ofa civilised commuisity, was strik• ingly observable. One reason upon which the right of pa rish relief was founded, lay in the rise and fall of trading profit., and the relative rise and fall of wages. in these fluctuations the progression was much more slow in the rise of wages than in their fall. Some allowance should be made furdhe poor labourers who fell into distress by these chooses, because they would nut always teethe must provident of their means. Same fund mutt be provided fur that exigency. If be weeded • practical argument to establish that position, the preseot distressing situativa of Ireland might serve to skew that maintaining the incapable poor was nut oecesearily detrimental to the general interests of a toiletry. Thedifficalty lay not in concurring with the existing law, lout in securing its wise nod prudent admioistratioa. His wish was to brio( hark the practice as near as possible to the statute of Eliza beth. By the old law the poor were entitled to support i o eases of want. But the language of that law was most cautious and measured ; it secured relief only for the impotent, and labour for those who could not otherwise get employment. Ooe of the great sources of evil was io the imprudent sdrai, niatration of the existing law. Part of this was to be ascribed to the management of the Magistrates themselves. It was ex traordinary that the remissness and want (demotion which bad increased the number of persons receiving parish relief to one in every ten, bad the same operation in the days of the nation's chief prosperity, and when wages were al the highest ; it was remarkable also that the applications for relief were in as great proportion from the labourers in productive trades, as from those in declining agriculture. He described thealterations winch had beta cif. cited in the old law by the 9th George I. and the al amending Acts of the last relgn. He proposed, as a remedy for the evil, some consi derable alteratioae in the laws of more recent date. The chief part of his pls. would go to the appointment of Assist. sot Overseers, to be employed In examining the condition of the peer applying for pariah relief—to ascertain the ouniber and state of each family—the habits of the father—and the wages earn' d by them altogether. He proposed that this officer should be choose by the select vestries where they existed, and was otherwise to be under the control of the local ma gistrates. Where a parish was large enough to employ him, there should be one of these officers to each parish. la smaller parishes, one would be enough for two or Intl . e pa. fishes, according to the (measles,. The testries were to spe cify his duties, the principal of which would be to aid them in disceruing between the idle sad Industrious moo( the poor. He remarked on some idle and incorrect helium which had gone abroad, that a parish could not compel a pauper belonging to smother and a distinct parish to work. He Meet interpret i ng of the poor them. He Isms, epr and be opo,rdtoi la s s o d bees redeceadbl declaratory so rator t; clause to alter that mulcts, and empower the overarm to provide employment. and compel the poor of every hied who claimed reit• fto week. He pointed out various other modifications which he proposed, the chief of which wee to eatable parishes to reduce the riposte of roads and other repairs, by the application of the labour of paupers, and to enable overseen to seek and procure labeler for them at any distance within ten miles from their perishes. After some further arguments in salmon of his plan, which he described c Ily to be that of reversing to the spirit of the statute of Elizabeth, be said that his object at present was to have the Bill brought is and printed, that it might be circulated sad well considered before the House should meet again. He concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the laws respecting the poor. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY complimented t►e Hon. and Learned Cellilemur on the polo. and caution which, be had used in bringing this subject (upward. He felt wit► heat, t►at though some remedy was isdispeneable fur Kee growth of the poor rates, there was the strongest objec. lion to tearing away soddenly that system of perish relief which bad grow. up with the social structure, and could not be removed altogether without the meat fatal danger to ■II the interests of the country. At she IRON time he ad vised t►e House to allow the Hon. and Learned Greetlemon his motion, without undertaking a desultory dieemmioe, which could est *merit the measure is this stage of it. Mr. MONCK heartily concurred is the praises of Ile Hon. and Learned Gentleman. Leave was tbeu gives to bring in the Bill. ALIEN BILL. Mr. Secretary PEEL moved the Orde► of t►e Day fur re ceiving the Report of the Alien Regulaiioo Bill. Mr. BERNAL hoped the Right Hon. Gentleman world consent to let the Report stand over, fur several Hun. Mem bers who wished to be present at the bringMg %pp of She Report were not then is the House, because, from seeing the notice of the Hon. Member fur Essex in the paper fur that day, they bad out expected that it could come on. Mr. PEEL slid, it was perfectly competent to the Hon. Member, or any of his friends who ►ail clauses to move, to bring them up ors the third readiug of the Bill, which be should have ■o objection to 61 for soy day that would ssit their convenience; but after She very full discussion which the Bill bad already undergone, he could see nu reason fur delaying the bringing up of the Report. Mr. BERNA L said, lie hail no cleave to bring tap, nor was be aware that soy other Ilutwarable Member had any, but he had intended sho►tly to stale to the House the grounds of the opinion which be eateriained against the Bill altogether, and be knew that some of his Hun. Fr irons bad the same intention. It was far, however, from his wish to offer say obstruction or inconvenience to the Right Hun. Secretary, who, be must %ay, bad scud with the utmost fair. AM and candour through the whole progress of the in. timbre. Mr. SCARLETT matte some observatiows which we could not collect, respectin some douses which be wished to wove. The SPEAKER said, that previous to the moving any amendments in the body of the Bill, or any clauses to be added to it In this stage, the Report should be Inourght ep mud read. The Mein. Member might then make his option, toliObtr Ire would dime his ameaciMeots do the Deport, or on the third reading et the nall. The Report was thee broeght rp, and having beer read, was agreed to. Dir. SCARLETT thee! sold he had Several dittoes to move. The 'tit INS an amendment to the tenth section, which gave the magistrates power to arrest and tend an elicit h. prison with. oat bail ur osaidprise, to await the orders of the Secretary of Slats for his removal under the pores of this Act. Another elause he should move was, to coact that the Secretary of State should not be empowered order Aet to remove asp alias, the subject ufauy State io amity with his Msjesty, unless it should appear by the information of one or morierr. dilate witnesses, taken on oath sod in writing before • magic. *trate, that such alien was engaged in a conspiracy or plot against the peace of some foreign mate in amity with his Majesty. Atwitter clause he had to move, which would trued that wheat soy alien was removed eider the rower of this Act from his Majesty's domisiows, a return anteing forth hie name sad descriptinn, and the places from and to which he was ►emoved, shall be laid before Parbsoteot wlij s de' month from the date of such removel e or one moot► frog! ills commencement of the Session, in C3SC the removal shoot occur during the prorogotion or &natation of Parliament • He had also a clause to propose, enacting that if asp alien arrested ►y ordir of the Secretary of State, under the power, of this Act, should require ■ communication of the srectiii charge on which it was proposed to remove him, it should he communicated to him is writing, twentylour hours before his removal, and that during that time he should have liberty to see and eommosieute with 'howsoever be pleased. Mr. PEEL opposed the whole of the clauses moved by the Honourable and Learsed Member, on the ground of their effect being to eosfitie the power which he contended it was necessary that the Goverossent should bare over ahem residing in this country, to be exercised on the respen sibility of the Ministry who put it iu motion, within limits which he thought ►e should nut haws much difficolty in convincing t h e Honourable and Learned Member were mach too narrow. Altar a few wnrds from Mr. Bernal, Mr Secretary Peel, the Marquis of Londonderry, and Mr. H. G. Bennett, ie_ spertlng the third evading of the Bill— The Hnuie divided on the first clause moved by Mr. SCA It LE rr, when there appeared— Noes Ayes Majority against the Clause.... 26 On our reform to the Gallery we found that the remaining Clauses had been negatived without a division. THE CURRENCY. Mr. WESTERN, adverting to the notice *hid, be had formerly gives of his indention to bring forward fur the cos sideratiosi of the Howse ci main Resolutions on the subject of the currency, as ronaected with the distressed state of the agriculture, and the general state of the country, said that it was his wish to consult as far as possible the coon oienee of the House, in the mode and tient of briogisg for ward that subject for discussion. Many persons who wished to be prevent at the discossion, bad left the House, ander the impression that it could not possibly come on that evening. But meth was the pressure of business at this period of the Ses sits., that it was exteediugly difficult to fix upon any period for the consideration of any subject of importasce with a certainty of being able to Wing it on. One mode of pro ceeding, however, had been suggested to him, which it would be fur the House to cousitcr whether it was oh jectiutiable or not. That was, if it should nut be thought irregular, to move now all his Rellilkill/1111 but the last, that beta' the oar upon which the discussion would arise, sad the gibers being merely preliminary, and to postpone the last to Monday or Tuesday. The Margolis of LONDONDERRY sail, he did not see that the House would find any impropriety in assenting to the coo se pointed out by the How. Member. The first 17 resolutions bring merely preliminary, might be disposed of without ioterfhriag with the decision of the Howse alma the last. Mr RICARDO said, it appeared to biro that there were mistakes i• alissit all the iesolutions, which it was &alem bic to correct, end that • mistaken principle ran through the whole, which monocled them in iamb a atomiser, t►at hr did not see bow the House coulJ dispose of all but oar now, and afterwards raise • discaniu• on • resolution which merely set foals the eosciwitios drawls from premises which would •ot tiles be before it. Ur. HUSKISSON said it was imponible to dispore of oar part of the reaolwirous, without osaLiag up their muds as to she whole. After a few words frees lite Marquis of LONDONDERRY, Mr. WESTERN said If it was the wish of the Howse, he wosid then prime eit, as well as he was able, to the question. —(Hear, hear.)-11 might, he said, appe r to many Gentle men, that there was • great degree of pertinacity en his part, is artist bending forward thew remititiona, after the fall die. eussiow which Site subject had undergone un a &ewer occa sion, and the decision which the House had Oda tents to; but if they were impressed as he was with a deep sad awful cadied** of the calamities which threatened to overwhelm the country, if they feN as he did, flan'y sad bewail, marines(' that those calamities were owing to that caret to which be attributed them, they croak/ not carotins him for his peroeverauce in endeavouring to persuade the House to review its decision, aid to put • stop to the did'slrons career is which the visually was now reinitiate head• long to its ruin. If the eft cis of the Act of 1819 in raising the value of money were duly and 'Mutant, considered, it would be seen to have operated is pro ducing the calamities which were now preying upon the trostry, to a much greater extent than at Pest sight it ap peared to hare had. He asked whether such a of things as was sow rite. seed is Leland and in this comely, had ever before existed ? If any mar disputed his premiss, he asked him to do so fairly; if any man were disposed to dewy what might be called hi* mere assertion., let him Jo so at once. He had no wish to exaggerate the distress of the lauded interest, but he would repeat the assertion he had made on a former night, fur he was folly concriactd of its troth, that two thirds of the yeomanry of this country— two-thirds of the cultivators of its roil, had been by the alteration of the cureeney rendered insolvent.--(Hear.)— The lasido•nen were but little bitter off. It was true they had not yet felt the pinch. They and others—the clergy and the pow—had been hitherto feeding on the vitals of the farmer.—(Hear.)—But the tars of the landowners was err coeliac, mid they would some he involved in they're which bad already overtaken the former.--(Hear.)—There were matey estates is the most ft elite shininess in the comity. which dill not at this moment produce to the owner. a nnt of 40 per cent. ; and he would tell the Noblemen and Gentlemen of the country, that they would be still more depressed—they would he weighed dorm and degraded front their pewit situation in the twiner!, and see their estates slip from their possession. The Act of 1819 ear the sole claw of the calamity stitch threatested them. That the excess of minis and want, which at this moment prevails is Intend, could be attributed to any other cease than the east of Curie')", was a mod mistakes notion. The letters which he had from that unhappy towing-7 all concurred in stating, that it was the want of money and nut the want of employment that rendered the people unable to obtain the mesas "diastole lit life. That people should be dying of want in a count , ' ohne the farmers were suffering front the suprrabinidune of prodace—that people should perish of Nand while ilia cup of abundance was presented to their lips, was an anomaly as unprecedented as it was frightful. We were stetting mosey—we were reading provisions of all —potatoes meal, and biscuit, to Ireland, and were bring ing back cargoes of coru.—(Hear, hear.)—Thrs the tip icul tarsi peasantry of that country were actually expiring Lem want in the midst of plenty. The same would be the ease with F.ngleattl, hut fur her poor rates mud her capital, by which means the poor of this country were supported by roans!, and that alone. He wished that landlords would rut deal so much in liberality as of late they had wen tow. Landlords had a right to expert all thtt was just and fair front their property, t.wirds th. , r families and Waists ; but eves that the Bill of 1 : 49 prevented the poosibality of their *Wining. No c.it tracts ought to be held binding entered law IseLee that period. He repelled the innovation that the land revisers of England were actuated by those sordid ;soli rts that bid heels ascribed to them. He hail rather be the object thin the author of Bodo • report.
