IRISH LUNATIC ASYLUM BILL The Earl of I.trt►atcit, io movie( the second reading of the, Irish Lunatic Asilam Bill, stated that it was to aimed a fanner 8011, itt which a pour*: to purchase laid for the Asylum was omitted. The Bill was read a wood time, and ordered to be com mitted on Thursday next. 4 The Marquis of Lartenows presented a Petition (mini Henry Dance, stating the unpleasant predicament is which he would be placed as a provisional assiestee of the !awl. vent Debtors Court, if the Bill before the Wiese did nut pass into • Law. Tile Petition was laid on the table. COMMUTATION OF FELONIES BILL The Nl , 4rquis of LAusnowit moved the third reading of the Commutation of Felonies Bill. The LORD Cu sacr.t.t.ost suggested that that p u t of the Bill should be omitted which went to repeal the Act or the gift of istorte I. commonly called the Block Act. The Marquis of LANSDOWN concurred in the suguestion of the Noble and Learned Lard. The Bill was dien read the third time and passed. CAPITAL FELONIES REPEAL BILL. The Marquis of Lanai:lows moved the Order of the Oar for the third reading of the Capital Fe lonies Repeal Bill. The LORD CHANCELLOR stated, that he had many objections to this sweeping way. of getting rid of long existing Statutes. There was ito way of legislating on criminal subjects but by looking at general acts. The Legislature could not bind itself down to minute and specific cases, but rather make a gelierill lasw, leaving its some quarter a dis cretioilary power of mitigating it for lenient cases. The repeal of the penalties now in force by the ',resent Bill, lie thought calculated to do much ati.chief. The Judges should have been first called upon for their opinions upon the present operation of the penalties to be repealed by the present mew sure. There were many parts of this Bill to which he hail no objection, and lie would suggest the propriety of separating the parts on which they were agree.% from the others, and introducing the debatable parts in a future measure; he pledged himself to introduce them in such a manner next Session, and take the opiniou of the Judges in the manner he had mentioned. The Marquis of La NsDOWN yielded to the solici tation of the Noble mid Learned Lord, and was ready to separate the parts of the Bill accordingly. He really thought that substituting the penalty of tritilapora Ration for that of death, in the particular icstancee militated to' in the Bill, would ultimately prove more effective for the prevention of crime. Wilk respect to the crime of killing and maiming cattle, ►here sad been in the last five years, on the Northern Circuit, 25 committals for that crime, two trials, and no convictions. The penalties in severe asses were left as they originally stood, it left the of fence ofsending threatening letters, for the purpose of extorting money, in its present state. The Noble Marquis then pointed out the inoperative character of the law for punishing fraudulent bankrupts. Though it was violated every day, yet its severity prevented prosecutions. If the punishment were transportation for life, he had no doubt the crime would be more effectually prevented. The Earl of Livearoot. said he had not so fa vourable an opinion of the effect of transportation. The defective !tart of the criminal law of this coon. try was, that it had no adequate secondary punish.. went which operated in terro►eta. The punish ment of transportation had materially changed its character since its flint enactment. When first in troduced. it was in many instances a more severe punishment than death: it was to be removed to an obnoxious and unwholesome climate. like that of Africa. or to be sent and indentured m servants its the American Colonies, where they were much worse off than negroes. But as to the present . mode of transportation to Botany Bay, it was just nothing of was exactly what the thief wanted. who was tor► closely watched at home. Thousands of applicatioeis were every year made at the Colonial Office by persons eagerly anxious to become free settlers in New South Willett; so that in fact all spot. in proportion to the nature of the otf , tice. The expense was also a serious con►ideration. . The Marquis of LANSDOWN observed, that the Bill did not seek the repeal of theeitrerne penalty in any of those asset' which were attended with violence or outrage. After a few words from the Loan CiIAiCILLOIL in explanation'. the parts of the Bill objected to were by agreement struck out, and the Bill then read a third time and passed. • • STATE OF THE NAVY. . The Earl of DARNLEir rose to call the attention of their Lordships seal the Noble Lord (Melville) . opposite to the state of the Navy. He bad frog► time to time mentioned the subject, in the hope of attracting that attention to it which its importance so well &wired. He would now Moir fur a return of the number of ►hips of the line carrying 24. pounders on the main deck, soil frigate) , now build ing in his Majesty's yards. He thought that this 'cottony was generally too tardy in following the measures taken by other powers for increasing the site and force of their ships, and he made this oh. servation with reference particularly to the sire and Structure Of the vessels built by America. Referring to a return which he held in his hand, the Noble Lord remarked, that there were ships of the larger Size building, but not any two-deckers, which he understood was the description of vessels of mo►t general utility; and with regard to frigates; hr ob served. that there were none building or ordered to be built, of the model of the Pounce, mounting fifty ?4-pounder guns, which ass, us hr was given to understand by naval officers. a very eligible of vessels and quite strong enough so cope with any frigate whatever. Some of the frigates which were built were of too large a description, but the majority were considerably too light. His view in moving for returns this evening. was with • design to see if any proposition favourable to economy (so desirable at this period) could be made. He wished to ascertain whether the navy hail nut been brought to that state when a diminution of the expense might reasonably be expected. From the returns, he observed a considerable in crease of the expense as to timber, and a great di minution under the head of labour. However friendly he might be to every practicable mea sure of economy, yet he could not approve of such • reduction of the labourers iii the yards, as might render ineffectual any effort, should an effort he 'memory, to increase our force suddenly. The Noble Earl strongly recommended retrenchment in every department. He observed, notwithstanding the impoverished state of the country, that the Estimates for the Navy this year, instead of bring less. are on the whole greater than the lam yeller. He thought it impossible the country could go on with its present immense scale of expenditure ; that was as impossible as for an individual long to cautinuo its credit with an increased expen diture and a diminished income. Ile express ed his hope that his Majesty's Ministers would seriously apply themselves to economise the expenditure of the country, not contenting them selves with merely lopping off some junior clerks of trifling salaries. but seriously putting their shoulders to the wheel, and making weighty re i trencbments in every department. Ile had listen& ed to have moved an humble Address to his 31a 'jesty to that effect, but declined it its consideration of the preoccupied state of the public mind. BANK OF ENGLAND, JULY 13, 1820.

IJIPIUtIAL PARLIAMENT. The Earl of DARNLEY said, that the argument of the Noble I'iscouirt, which went to Lind bins to vote for this Bill, if he had voted far the roamer Bills, did not apply to him, us lie had not been present when-they were passed, or he should cer tainly,have entered his protest against a measure which he considered as most disgraceful. Under the alarm which prrvaikd at the time of the French, Revolution, he had 'lieu thought it Ms duty to ski I port the measure ; but after zia years of profound peace, he thought (oohing could be more disgrace. fail than the manlier in which this Act had been renewed year after year without any asleqoote cause being shrwn. Ile would ask if it was possible to conceive that the safety of this great country depended pis the more or less fureigireas that resided in it ? Though lie gave hill credit in the mild disposition of the Noble li-cotiot, aed his anxiety to exercise his powers is the least oh noxious mariner. yet the powers of the Bill %sere such as he would not tutrust in •uy bawls. The policy of this country had ever been to encourage the free egress owl regress of foreigners, but now. year after year. without any proof of danger, Donn the bare assertion of the Noble Viscount, a mem sure was carried, which was not wily injurious to wards foreigners, but militated against the princi• plus of a free constitution. tut Isis great ohj-ciiiiu was to the limner in which it placed the riatintev in the view of foreigners. He would not suffer the opportunity to pass without entering his pr.,te,t against the measure, and he hoped and trusted it would be the last time they would he called upon to pass that or any similar Bill. Lord H01.1..14%1) felt it arecesrary to say a few words by way of entering ti's protest egotist the Bill, but having an frequently stated his opinions. and placed them on record on their Lordship,' Journals, it became the less necessary for limn now to state his reasons for timakitig Bills of this nature were cruel, unjust, and impolitic ; oil all those great points, therefore, he would not fatigue their Lord ships attention, but on the manner in which this Bill was brought forward he must beg to make a few remarks, though he felt it irksome et that late hour and at that period of the Sessmat to occupy their Lordships' time. ile well knew thiit the public mind, as his Noble Friend had observed, was engaged on other subjects, but lie was not ter be deterred by such consiornattons from the performance of his duty. He confessed he thought that their Lordships awl thy other House of Parliament reminded him of a passage iii Eton's account of the Turkish empire. It happened that Mr. Eton. on his return to tiros country, was obliged to put into a port in Bulgaria; he welt ashore and waited on the Greek Governor; be ststed that he found sitting on a styli". by the side of the Governor, a Tusk of great distinction, who fell into a passion of rage at the sight of them, and immedi ately ordered the heeds of Mr. Eaton and the 26 persons who were with him to be cut off. He or tiered the executioner befire bits wish a bag, lair (Lord Holland) believed a green hag, for the pur pose of holding their heads after thcapihitiort. Eton was extremely noxious that the Italian interpreter who was with them should exploit; to that distinguished Turk the circutostauce• of their country and coons-aim,* ; hut, warming, nattly. the poor Italian was so panic struck • that all lie could utter win d " the bag !" that accursed green bag !" and thus Mr. Eton mid his 26 companions had neatly lost their lives, ur ut least their property, because his interpreter could think of nothing but a green bag.—(A When he observed the number of Bills OH their Lordships' table, and the manlier in which business was hurried on, he could out but think that the lawful interpreter of the uation—the Parliament — was so occupied that we were very likely to have our pockets picked. and all this because, like the Italian, they could tuft overcome their dismay at the green bag which had hem laid ou their table.

GLASGOW STATUTE LABOUR BILL. The Duke of hlowenoar moved the third reading of the Glasgow Statute Labour Bill. The Earl of LAUDERDALI strongly complained of the injustice of this Bill, and suggested the propriety of re; euminittlng it. The BM contained a greatea itivasion of pro perty than was ever attempted to be breed upon them in any mtnisitre he ever recollected. Why not repair the com mon sewers and water courses of Glalrow out of the ordi nary funds ? But the Magistrates, by Ike operation of this Bill, made the rates liable Pt a heavy a of debt which they had contracted. He moved the re.coinmittal of the Bill. The Duke of Mormon strenuously defended the Bill, Es necessary and just in its principle and application. It was but fair that the inhabitants, who derived the benefit of the improvements, should pay the arrear of expense when the running Statute Labour Act was iusufficient for that purpose. The Earl of ROSSLVN thought the Bill • ought to be re committed ; at all eveuts, the Bill ought not to include the debt already incurred. lord REDZIDALII saw no objection to the Bill. The Earl of LAUDIRDAL, theu proposed, that the power respecting the debt already incurred should be omitted. A division look place, hot the precise numbers on whirl, we were unable satisfactorily to learn. We tinder_ at I, however, that the third rending of the Bill was car ried by a considerable majority.

Miss Poole, late of the Drury-lane and Lyceum Theatre., will make her Suit appearance on this Stage on the 31st inst. in a new Hurtful. Lo►d MELVILLE said lie was free to confess that the expense of the navy, as it proceeded, ought to be on a diminishing scale, and in every year now some diminution of the expense might be expect ed. It was not to the number only, but to the durability and effectiseuess of our navy that we were to look. Other countries usually fit their ships for temporary purposes, fur a single voyage or other service; but the British navy was oast for years, on blockades of distant ports, and cruising io all parts of the world, • sort of service which no' nation ever did, or ever would go throng!). From the scarcity of British oak, and the state of foreign trade at the close of the last war, an inferior sort had been resorted to, which had occasioned a dete rioration never before known. The Noble Lord had observed that none hut ships of the larger class were building ; the Noble Lord hail himself furnished a reply to the remark. The Noble Lord had acknowledged that we moat build after coun tries with which we were likely to be in hostility, and 80 and 86 guu-ships were the only description of vessel, which the United States were now build ing; of the other classes we had none building, because we had still a great number serviceable which were under repair, and the same observation applied to frigates carrying forty 24-pounder guns. It was very true as the Noble Lord had stated, that the Americans had built a species of frigate carry ing 60 guns, but in the opinion of all the naval officers whom Ito (Lord Melville) had consulted, the 50.gu• frigates to which the Noble Earl lied alluded, would not be able to contend with them on any thing like terms of equality.. It should be recollected also, that number was required as well as force, and fur the protec tion of our trade it was necessary to spread our ships, and for that description of service light vessels were the moat effective. The frigates of fifty guns which were in our service were built of fir. The larger sum fur timber and materials, as compared with wages, was • mistake in the estimates which were made out in a different wuy from former ones, but the mistake was now rectified. The Earl of DARNLEY said a few words, after which the papers were ordered. Lord ELLENBOROUGH proposed an amended clause to be added to the Marriage Act Amendment Bill, and moved, on the part of a Noble Friend of his who hod left the House, that the Committee on the MOW* in Chancery Bill (Ireland) should be postponed till Thursday next. Lord RIDUDALE objected to the postpineutent, and after some conversation, in which Lord Hot.. LOAD, the Earl Of CAENORVON, sod Lord Hem. VAUXHALL.

The Elul of LAUDERDALE hoped there would be noobjec lion 11l produce copies tidal! the correspondence on the rah. jeep of the extra post, between the Lords Commissioners of the Treasury, the Chancellor of the Excitefiner, and mer cantile i,Jividusls. By the arrangement respecting 'hie extra post, the additional expense was nut, as heretofore, fixed by law, but by the Postmaster General, and now a bargain wits lobe made with a Mr. Burgess. He was aware that the towns of Manchester and Liverpool would derive considerable advantage by the ex t r a post, and that is the transfer of letters and Bosom' between Loudon and these limits, *early two days would be saved. But the ail vantage given in this respect to the particular places, would be injur wisely felt elsewhere, from the spirit of inert anti le jobbing it would engender. He should, in addition to the papers he bad already intima►ed his iuteition to move fur, tall fur copies of all correspondence between the 'merchants of Leeds and Halifax sod the Postmaster-Gruen!, respect• jug the difference of time at which the twill arrives at these respective places, and the effect produced by that variance. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said he had no object' to the producti .... of these papers if they were UMW) fur in the regular way. The. Noble Earl must be aware that the corer. epondence al the Treasury was conducted by the Board, thrungh their Secretary, and not by any of its members indi. He could assure the Noble Earil,thet on the sub. ject in qwestion no bargain had been made in the matinee Ile alluded to. The transaction was shortly this—it was ►rpre. vented by several mercantile persona in Liverpool and Glas gow that a plan had been contrived by the speculation mid ingenuity of an individual, which would save one half the time already cuseefuned in conveying the post to and from London. Whether this plan might be found to answer all the endsuf revenue and expense he could rot say that he now said was, that the expeditious plan was practicable, and that the whole object at present was merely ri i The Act was therefore an empowering one. At pet•rrnl the answer to a letter sent from Loudon to Liverpool on Monday was not obtained instil the Friday. By the new pla n it could be had on W.-411(.1,day. It was intended to try the plan tit the outset only un issue road. The Earl of launtAtuat.t thought that the pm-tint opera tion of the plait would prove IlligelllY,olllll to the places where it was not tried. He gave solace that in the Committee upon the Extra Post Bill hr should move a clause, claiming the conveyaifee of their Lordships' privileged letters by this extra port.
