The Petst:oneta remumirated en the impropriety of squandering the public money •a ageless objects, ofp ing umseceasary placemen and pensioners,aad the undue sufluence exercised by Peers and others in the election of Members of Patltantent for the purpose of übtai•iug corrupt majo rities to the House of Common,.

Mr. HUME wished to take that opportunity of impressing upon the 'Plod of t►e Right Huauurable President of the Board of Tend. the necessity of a revision of the charge, of Cobauls. There were also other charges to which the ship. ping interest were subject ; and be hoped that in their deep distress that important class of the eonsmunity would not be forgotten. He considered the tax of sixpence a month, which was levied on the sailors in that service an extrema hard ship. It now masousted to the enormous sum o(21 per cent. ■ad he hoped suite Bill would be introduced to remedy these evils. Sir ISAAC COFFIN said. that the sai lora is the regular service were subject to • mu of • shilling • month, whilst the men is the merchant 'trek e paid only 6d. and for that they were entitled to relief from Gre•awich Hospital; he could ant, therefore, corsider that the latter were subject to any area, hardship.

Mr. LESTER presented a Petition from Manchester end Salford, preyiiig for • revision of she Criminal Code. He expressed his retire whits the prayer of the petstiooers. He wished to see punishment applied upon a principle of specific counteraction. Cremes had their source in idlessess and sensual indulgence ; to repress these, irksome labour arid imprisonment, sometimes is solitude sometimes in dark ness, should hr applied. Sir F. BURDETT saw great difficulties, especially after what had passed respecting lichesier gaol, its arlopturg soli tary confinement on seek a plan as to geared ■g■iost those horrors of abuse wine!' had always hitherto accompanied it. He was unglues that some measure should be introduced, and it would he impossible to know what were likely to he the results of any specific alteratios omit they were wholly explained before the House. At •uy rates change was likely to be beneficial. But from his experience of the use made of solitary confinement hitheino, he saw no prospect of being •ble to adopt it with safety. He Sall far from supposing that the present system of prison dlseiplise. which made the gaols schools of dissoluteness, and prepared malefactors fur the perpetraliun of greater crimes than they were capable of before, ought to routioue; but the treatment of prisoners was geoerally bad and ea rarity harsh, and io no places worse than those which were must uuder cover of authority, and shut in from public view. Lauri STA NLEY, to shew how much the criminal rode demanded altsration, would awe • few circum• mances ennuected will; the gaol delivery of Lancaster. At a recent Assize there were 53 prisoners etrometed, only five interred seateaces under the penally of death. There were 48 who received the capital sentence. This could hardly have happered under a really equitable jorirprudeace. Of these 41 were reprieved before the Judges left the town, *even were left f lion, and only three were after all really executed. The humanity of the Judges was perpe tually in conflict with the cruel severity of the laws. The Petition was ordered to be petaled. Sir T. LETHBRIDGE presented similar Petitions from Sherhoup, Dorset—and Wilicantoe, Somerset. Dr. LUSHINGTON presented similar Petitions from 88 persons who had served as Jurors in the Courts of Luridon— from Dudley, Worcester—from Baobury, Oxfordshire—from Wakefield, Yorkshire—from Maidetoue, livot—Gaiusbo ✓ough—and Lewes, Sarrey.

After the Committee be intended to more that it be printed and circulated, mail then go over till next Session% to give perfect time to be known to all the wise. interested. Mr. WYVILL presented a Petition from !tooth Shields, complaining of the severity of the Criminal Code. Mr. F. BUXTON presented a similar Petition from Ralph Wirdxewood, who declared that bin mind had been at rest since he had been ltd, without being aware of the consequences, to prosecute one Rivera, fir forging and ulterior a Batik uf England note, to coliviition ; upon which execution had followed, contrary to the isteal and•direcl prayer of the ret limner to the Cowl. Also another Petitiosi from a respectable Booker, named Berkely, in Yorkabire„ complaining that he was imprdeil in the prosecution fur forgeries on bis Bank by the difficulty of getting witnesses to come forward and prove against the lives of their felluw-creaturea. On t►e round of commer cial inconvenience, be prayed a revision of the Criminal Cud*. The Petitions were severally ordered to be prioted. AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS. Mr. COKE presented a Petltiou from Grisiehaw, Nor folk, complatoing of Agricultural Distress. Si, T. LETHBRIDGE observed upon the mire want of The Marquis of LONDONDERRY was glad the Hon. Baronet bad brought himself to speak silt, and slate in what degree he really thought the conduct of Ministers defective. It seemed then that the House were at last about to learn in a more specific and intelligible way what the agricultural interest expected from them. Yague and comm.)* threats had been made, which, however sincere, could not be deem ed of very safe utterance, the present state of the country considered.—(Hear, hear, from the Oppusition.)— la polite of fact, the redactions which hail been made in taxes mod ea. penditure were a direct refutation of the sarertious of the Hon. B t, which were undoubtedly of rather an inflam matory character. The case was before Pailiansent and the country, and he might leave it to the justice of both to de. termite if there had bees say thing supine or backward in the conduct of Government as to relieving aviculture' distress. Early is the Session two millions of isles had bees remitted. Since then, 1,300,0001. more had been proposed to be given op through the operation of • great financial measure, while t►e sinking fund we, kept at its full operation to the amount of five millions. It could hardly be said that Government bad abewn itself insensible to measures of relief. That they had sot applied protections to many poiats of agricultural late. rest was true. There was as outcry t►at they had nut pro tected better and cheese, and flax perhaps, and the reason w►y t►ey had not done so was, because they ►ad gone as far as they thought it prudent to go in conceding protecting duties to agricultural produce. The view of the Hon. Baronet seemed to be that of remoneratiag price; • poled with which it was impossible fur Government to interfere. If the Hon. Baronet would suggest any effectual plan having that Intricacy, perhaps the House might not refuse to adopt it; but if he had eoofoutided the term protection in his vocabu lary with price, the House might have some difficulty i■ agreeing with Mal. The &lesion of obtaining a remuoe rstiag price by Corn Bills, was happily at an end ; and the whole system of restrictions was is course of removal by the Bills of his Right Hun. Friend sear him (Mr. F. Robinson), by whit b Bills a freer trade would be tiptoed, so as to affect no less than 273 branches of commerce. In the mesa limo he was happy that they were soon he have an opportunity of foomitig to etas, imearters with the Hon. Baronet. He had so doubt but the Ho•. Boman would pursue the conflict in a manly and open maser. He was glad that they were to have eusweibiag specific sod intelligent in place of that door nail declamation which had prevailed of late, against which ►e protested, as being to the last degree peraicious and dan gerous to the country. Mr. J. BEN ETT, Mr. G. BENNETT, and Mr. 111. A. TAYLOR, preseuted themselves at oar.. Mr. J. BEN ETT was first in the Speaker's eye. He was understood to protest against the Representatives of the landed interest dutag soy thing with a •iew to inflame the people. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY had not made any arch charge upon the County Representatives. Mr. J. BEN Err said, that if it were to be inflammatory to use strong language in describing the distress of it.ricul tore, he must incur the charge. The Isiodloolders had borne the last degree of evil with patience. They had guile too far in submission ; they had suffered their dependant tenants to be entirely ruined. He did not like to awaken discussion on Pelitioss, but it was sow impossible to •void it; sad thee as to strong language, they were likely to have many more Petitions of the same hind ere lung. He did not friod, to tee the House insulted, but he thought it tyrannous to reject • Petition on some slight informality, because they did sot like the teems of it. . . . Mr. G. BENNETT protested against the doctrine that the presenting of Petitions was not the proper tints for dm russiou. He knew from experience that there was no time so proper. The Noble Lord, no doubt, preferred set divi sions, when he • eould give proper notice and have all his troops—dire • discussion which he, autocratically, called • held-dsy. The Noble Lord might beat then, 3 to 2, or 3 to 1. He cared not • farthiog abort the Noble Lord's majorities or minorities ; all besought was discussion in doom iind not. It was by the course of Petitions, and discussions upon them, that his Honourable and Learned Friend near him had been able to beat the Right Honourable Gentlemen oust of the Income Tax. to giving the country relief by renttasiu• of taxes he thought the Jetta, who paid their cuntributio•s to one of the English Kings of old, on pain of losing their teeth, might as well have pretended that their contributions were all voluntary. Not to the good will of Miniature did they owe the remis siou of taxes, but to their inability to retain them. They affected to consider the sinking fund as untouched. They had one set of Cuminissioners to reduce, another to laciest* the sinking fund. But with what avidity did they seise the proposition of his Hon. Friend to enable the Commissioners to take up the new loan! The Right Hon. Gentleman was aware all the while that the Commissiours were the only piny who would have any thing to do with the trausactioii. Well alight they langh tu the Noble Lord's face when be pretended that this wu soy other than a no for getting rid of the sinking rued, filehiogly and cunningly, after having refused to do it openly and candidly. He was glad of it any way, whether done secretly or openly, because it would prevent so much money from being takeu out of the pockets of the people. Mr. MONCK thought they were likely to have many Pe titions more strongly worded ; nor could it be wondered at when they considered that the sixty millions of taxes collect ed had the effect of 120 mill it the circulation in which they had been first laid ou. That made she vend's' my rrrr y of their dialreas plain. He thought the Hui.. Baronet, Men,• bet for Somerset, in error in supposing that the proper remedy wew to raise the price of corn. He protested •gaisist any Cora Bill, which would have the effect of levying a auto and heavy tax ou the people fur the exclusive bitted. of the laud ed interest. Mr. LESTER said that bin late Majesty, when reviewing some yeomanry cavalry, said, " I like these gentlemen, nut foe what they carry in their bands, but for what they have in their pockets." The pockets were now turned umiak out (Lamsliter.)—He would leave the application of the apo'orie Its Ministers, who seer bigots to taxation, and moaned and groaned over • reduction of 10 per cent. ou their salaries, without any feeling fbr the reduction of every thing i• agri culture. Sir F. BURDETT wee •nxinns to do justice to the Hon. Baronet, Member fur Somerreishire. He saw as evil—be supposed that he knew the proper remedy, and he manfully came forward to propose it. If the Country Geottemeis I would uniformly act sputa this priociple, sod not be mu modest •ud rettrtug, to which their habit, much ischuta them, t►ey would aeon compel such an operation of se trenehment as would go near to rescue the country. He would not talk of salvation, for that implied something pf despondency, and he could never desrair of the r o ute r g. It was hardly proper to talk of the inability of Ministers, but he did ►eally believe that they had acted in entire igno rance of the state of the country, over which they bad sir long presided. For the measures they bad been driver. to to remitting lazes, he, being a very ungrateful Region, refessd them any consideration in the way of thank•. They would have consulted their duly had they done years ego what they were now compelled to do. How often had they de clared that if they were not supported in their measures of extravagance they would resign their places Marry s tins:• had they compelled Members to vole again,* their cosine. two fur fear of the danger (why it sy feared be knew sole, that they would quit uflice. The opinions or the country were in point of fact remarkably changed. There wan a more general disposition for some kind of reform. Gel forbid that he should scare the country 'reiterant with say liaise like Parliamentary Reform, though to that they most caw at lest, if they hoped to compel Illioistera to a suffi cient redaction to relieve the country. As yet there had been so relief granted. There was no gratitude due in them for remitting taxes; they would be highly culpable if they did not do it, if it were in their power. Was the coun try as flourishing es in reality it was derayiog, they would have no right to spend weritusily a single shilling of the hued earned moury draws from the people. As to Cora Bills, they were no relief: a fete trade in corn would be best even fur the agricolturist. The reductions of mignon were wit equal to the pressure added by chso4iug the currency.— Here Ministers had strangely neglected their duly : they should at lean have examined the effect of altering the eye entry, and reduced all the pay and charges, which had been increased tan account of the depreciation, to what they were before. They should also base passed a law fur line reel- I nen of all debts and contracts: they should have made due preparation for carrying a measure of suck importance rut, operation. They had acted in the dark, as to present cir cumstances and future consequences. They talked of hav ing a healthful ic y--s very good phrase, but question able—as if they had noting, to do but vote it; but they never considered that what was healthful for one period might be must unhealthy for another. He would willingly give them credit for intention, if he saw them drossy thing towards the relief of the teristrv. But it was sot relieving the country to get over a &snot' or two. He would pot at to the Noble Lord to say if he really thought that Gentle men of landed estates, who were without reale, would hunt continue to pay taxes? Had lb. Noble Lord and his col league* screwed themselves up is that resokstion? If they had, they were likely to be assailed by petitions and remon strances, compared to which those complained of for their strong language were weak indeed. Mr. PEEL expressed his surprise at the lsngnsge of the Hon. Baronet, though he had frequently inveighed against t to measure fur 'Reran the currency. If the remarks of the How. Baronet were true, they furnished the nsoet ample cue demnatioa en his own coodoct. If that measure were wt. quitous in his opinion, nod he foresaw she roeseqwences, was in the highest degree guilty, fur not !mein pointed theirs out to the Heuer at the time. The measure man hove been iaiquitona in 1619, if it were so sow. Political eircons satiates might change—moral ones remained theater,. This Hen. Baronet was bound to have opposed the joirify o f th.• measure thee, and sot now comedown to makes holiday srerh upon what were supposed to he the distressing emsorepseeree. The olgect seemed to he merely to dissatisfy the cosorrev with a measure which was sot a measure of the Goveronwei,, but bad been adopted with more unanimity than say whieh had ever bees proposed in it. All he sought from the Elver was justice. None of his Majesty's Ministers claimed an• gratitude for remitting taxes. Their reward, as he well knew, in any ease, most be the coascieatious conviction .•f ►awing acted right. Deeply regretting as he did whale's'. aggravation the distresses of the country had received frr•n. the passing of the Cash Payments Bill, yet upon a review of all that had passed, and the danger of going bark to the precipice over which they were stagger ng in consequence of the state of the currency, were the thing to Ju over egii;os, he would advise the Howse to take the same coa►se. Sir F. BURDErT said, that as tar as he was concerned, though he slid not hold himself responsible for correcting all t►e blunders of Administration beforehand—yet so tar—ape's the debate on the bullion qneslion—he had observed that t h . question was sot tf the Batik were ready to pay, but if the country was able to bear the return to rash pay meals. As to insinuating ■ny Odor to the disadvantaye of the Right Honourable Gentleman foe passing what was trailed "Peel's Bill," be knew very well that the Bill was slot his. The papers o■ the table would prove that the measure was proposed three years before the Right Hunour able Gentleman had any thiug to do with it. Mr. DLNMAN bail uo doubt that the Honourable Biwa. wet (Member fur Somerset) could produce a plan as likely to relieve agriculture in terms as clear and iutellii lbk as the Noble acid Right Honourable Heads of the Government. As to the cash payments, the Bill origiaated with the Opposition. Ministers west strongly opposed to It, and t►e Noble Marquis, in his select phraseology, raid that smelt a measure was likely to shake civilized ►ociety to its town dation,. Rut then Ministers bad sot done their duty when they accompanied this Bill with three millions of new taxes. Again, what were tbey about in 1816, when they might hove made the reductions which they had made new ? If their financial measures were prudent now, why were they not adopted tnea ? But the fact was, every step they took is economy was of ieloctant, compulsory adoption. Mr. G BENNETT disclainesd all gratitude to Admini stration for the remission of tszes. The Marquis of LONDON DERRY said, t►at he ►ad terser thought of imputing gratitude to the Honourable Gruel kacu. Mr. JAMES contended, that the Cash Payments Bill was an iniquitous measure, lumnsioch as it compelled thee• in pay the fundhuldrr the full value of 10s. is a Tinted cur. rime', for debts contracted in :misty swat worth more than IM. or Its. the pound vote; so that all who had become fvadholdera betters 1797 and 1819 were receivieg two or times as much as they bad leas to the public.
