PETITION FROM THE CITY OF LONDON. _ Lord ERIOLINI presented a Petition from the Lord Mayor, Aldermen. and Common Countil of the City of Load6e; against the Bill of Pains end Penakin in progress through their Lordships' House. The Petition protested in terms of con siderable strength against the character and nature of the proceeding. as well as against the mode of its introduction. The LORD CIIANCIILLOR did not think the Pe tition a proper one for the House to receive, as the statements and opinion contained in it were such as it was not consistent with the forms of the House to admit. Lord said, that he had felt it to be his defy' to present the !Petition, coming as it did from rise of the ism considerable bodies in the kingdom. His own seutimentauf course were not embodied in the fate of the Petition, they must be much better known to the House by his general condaet. The Loeb CisaticgLt.oit usevely wished their Lordship. to understand that it was not agreeable to their forms to admit such allegations as those con. trifled in the Petition, nor was there one instance in the practice of Parliament of such a Petition having here received. Lord HOLLAND proposed that it should be read again when the House might be fuller, so as to enable the Noble and Learned Lord to sati►fy their Lordships why the Petiti )))) should not be received. He apprehended that there could be no proceeding adopted in that Muse of such a nature as to ex clude the right of petitioniog against it. The LORD CHANCULLOR had no desire to pre vent the reception of the Petition snore than srose from what Ise had stated, that no ►uch Petition had ever been admitted. The question of receiving it was then postponed for a while. CATHOLIC PETITION. - - - - - - --- - The &Id of DONOUGHMOSE rose end spoke as follows : " I have hail in my hands, for a considerable time past, the Petition of his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects of the County aud City of Wa terford. calling to the recollection of your Lord ships those heavy privations and disalidities under which they continue to labour. I should not have failed to have long since prueuted this Petition to the House, but that I was desirous that it should proceed, as had been the cue ou all former occa sions. pari posse with the more general Petition of the Roman Catholics of Ireland, who are in the habit of holding their meetings in the metropolis. From various circumstances, the preparation of this general Petition for Parliament was so much delay ed, that it is not more than a week since it has been transmitted to me; and et such an advanced period of the Session as the present, and when the general business of the country is iu fact and truth at an end, 114 reasonable matt could think of throwing upon the table of either House of Parliament a subject of such vast importance as the just claims of his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects, when the time dad not admit of the possibility of their receiving due consideration. Besides, the public attention is so entirely engrossed at the present moment by another investigation of such para mount interest. that the season would be must in. opportune, upon such account :Aso, fur tlw cussion of the Romani Catholic Petition.. Upon a communication with it must re.pectable and highly-talented tudmdual, to whom those Pun nous hail been confided iu another place, it had been gratifying to me to boot that our sentiments sod feelings upon this subject eionely concur. And we have accordingly. both of us, thought it our duty to reserve the present-tion of our respec live Petitions till the next Sessile,, when w e propose to take an early opportunity of calhog the attention of Parliament to this subject, yielding to no otle_r iu interest aud importance."

The Petitioner, therefore, prayed to be heard, tithes by bienielf or by Counsel, at ti n t bar o)• the House itgairat the Bill. His Lnrdsbip moved, that the • The Earl of Lye.. did *Mit a ism is trtimh:lii , s . oronfoill•Igs woes, mules -it this in AI • 44).• that voisawr - ferred to by the Petition. There 'had long exacted is the public mind and feelings, seytinseute hhich went against the /*lets that seemed to spring -out of all OW circutbstancei . respecting the crime of forgery. It was foetid to occur too frequenly, soot the preventioik of it, it was pointedly WI, cost too greet a waste hf human life; still there were di &nil. ties observed to exist on both sides; the essential se. curily of property, end the iuttrests of morality re. quired active means of prevention in a crime of such frequent and easy commission. A general complaint had arisen of the inadequacy of the means used by the Bank to prevent forgery ; the subject was taken up in mother place, and • mo. tion was made to appoint it Committee to inquire and examine if meant could not be adopted se , effect such very necessary and desirable purpose. The motion was opposed by some of trie leading in• dividuals in administration belonging to the Leer ' House ; not because they thotight that there was no necessity for inquiry, but they objected to that particular, mode. Att Address to the King was preferred; praying his Majesty to appoint • Royal Commission to carry on the investigation. Ile had only to mention some debt leading names ed, to prove how perfectly groundless all chari;es against them or their Conduct must be. There were the late President of the Royal Society ; Dr. Woolastdo; Mr. D. Gilbert; Mr. Hatchet, one of the first chemists ; and Sir W. Congreve, our of the greatest machinists in the country ; 3lr. liar. man, of the Bank of England; and Mr. W. Cour, unity,. Master in. Chancery. These persons gave themselves up'to the inquiry, mid took into con. siderition 1/0 plans, which were offered them, from which they had *elected and adopted tl.at beitoined in the Bill, and the greatest 11111mellts were to' be expeeispl6, It was motorail •toleisch that the 169 whissidisee were refused,. sheeld complain. Bat slit their Lordships feel dimwit's competent to melee any :inpruvement in the management of the proceedings of such a Commission He denied that any parties could be aggrieved by that which had been dune. They still had the full use of 'brit intention., a n d might apply them in any way, even to the execution of country batik notes. The 801 l only prevented them ' bring used in the imitation of Batik of England note*. If any of the parties thought themselves really injured. the Courts were open; let them go to law, and see what damages a Jury would give them. But was that to prevent their Lordships from proceeding with the Bill in the Weal, time, and were they to be obstructed by the o i nision of a party, winch, besides being very small, were in terested in their opinion ? He did nut undertake fur the entire and satisfactory effects of the plan adopted by the Commission, but by the opinions of those best calculated to judge, it promised to give perfect satisfaction. At any rate, it ought to have a fair chance; give it a fair trial—let them run any risk of increasing the waste of human lives, when there was may prospect of a remedy. Ile objected to receiving the Petition. The Earl of LAUDERDALE said lie had not heard One tingle reasou offered fur lint hearing the parties, as they requested, against the Bill. The plait which had been adopted might be very good ; theme was no allegation to the contrary in the Petition. The party did nut wish to eider into a comparison of his plan with others; he complained that the Bill contained provisions of great injustice. Ile did not complain that his plau was refused, he said it had been *slowed, and that he should be in jured by the Bill, because it would prevent him from making use of his own invention on other oc casions. If this was no case for the consideration of Parliament. he knew out how a case could be framed at all. if flail tot*, bud or re Oradea of doeibt Lord REDESDALE was of opinion that the Bill did Hot take away the advantages of their plans front, the inventors ; it only prevented the use of them in engraving Bank of England notes. _ _ The Earl or LAUDERDALE said, that the Peti tioners were ready to contend that the Bill was cal culated to injure them. If the Noble and Learned Lord were tight in his opinion. it surely could lie no reams refusing to bear Counsel agaiiic ihe The Petition was rejected, after which the !louse resolved itself into a Cumnsitte on the Forgeries Preseution Hill, which passed through lie Com mittee, and was reported without auseuduiews. _T. • 1 1 / 4 t ;) • , ;-•• 7 - CITY PETITION.

The porticular kinds of marrirge were recited in the old Act, all which thsttuctith.s were laid aside iu the amended Bill. and a whit repeal of the former Act, in effect at least, was the consequence ; so that suarrtoges solewtitzril io a prison,leven its the Fleet, which was particulrily mrtstioued its the original Act, were all to be greet marriages, except they were rescinded by a suit in stituted under stated cooditioue.
