SCOtCli APPEAL-HAMILTON ANA OTHERS. Their Lordships proceeded in an Appeal " ton and others, Partners in the Glasgow Glasswork Company, against Geddes." Messrs. Aromkt and ALEXANDR it were heard on behalf of the Appellants and Messrs . Ro MILLY and HOMIEII on behalf 'Of the Respondents. Mr. ADAM was then heard in reply; after which the further consideration was postponed till to-morrow (this day). WAR WITH SPAIN. Lord Rewtese u air-mtreed, that the House should adjourn till to-t t norrow (this day), The Earl of D "(RN LEY said, he did not the to oppose the Motion of the Noble Lord, as he was happy in every opportunity of seeing their Lordships in their places, although he could not h e l p o b serv i ng, that when a otion of a similar nature was made last Session on this side of the House, it was opposed very warmly by the Noble Lords on the other side. He understood that an Adjournment was proposed for to-morrow, in order that the additional Papers respeaing Spain might then be laid on the Table. He could not but suppose that Ministers laid before the House complete information, in the first ia. stance, as to this subjtet ; and, therefore, he thought it strange that so much time should be occupied in preparing further information, and that the House should meet on Saturday for the purpose of receiving it. He found, however, that the same proceeding had taken place in the other House ; and fie could not help remarking, that the present Government seemed to have adopted a system of copying ser. vilely, in that House, the mode of proceeding in the other House, a system which he, and his Noble Friend near him (Lord Gitrtersruta), were deter mined to Oppose. Lord MULG R AVE said, that,in the first instance, he had certainly laid before the House all the infora mation which he then considered to be oCeessary; rea l;irive to the War with Spain. ,He afterwards, how ever, found, that more Papers were deemed requisite fur the discussion ; and being anxious, that, on a subjeel of such moment and importance, the House and the Country shoeld be in possession öt the fullest information, and that if any one could say there was any thing wanting, that it should be supplied, he did not hesitate, therefore, to move for the' production of such Papers as were deemed necessary,' 'Every possible expedition had been used to prepare those Papers, and he was not aware that it would have taken up so much time ; bet it was fnund that they could not be got ready before to-morrow (this day), as they were very voluminon9, and extended to severity printed pagea, It waa now, for the first tiinr., .that he heard, with considerable stir. prize, an objection made to the granting the House further information, and that he heard the Noble Lord oppose the Motion, the tendency of which was to put the House in possession of that information at the earliest opportunity, .It scented, however, it tees .objaled, that the mode of proceeding' put. sued by the other House was. servilely copied in this ; he could not conceive there could be any fair objeelion to put tio g the HOuse in possession of that information, which was , to be' had before the other on the same sultjeet, and he was much surprized that such an objetlion ': , !could have been made. It re. muined, however, fur Noble Lords to consider, whether they would oppose the Motion made by his Noble. Friend, for adjourning till to-Morrow, in order that the Papers might be laid upon the Table as early ;13 po43ible. The , Earl o 4 Day. ter aY, in explanation, ob served, Om. he had said 'he did not intend to oppose the Motion. Adjourned at five o'clock till to-morrow (this day) 'IIOU4'E OF COMMONS, FRIDAY, FEU. 1, Mr. BouvElti R moved, that A new Writ should be issued for the Eledion of a Member for the 139roughl of Dysart,' Luria bland, Kirkaldy, and Kinghorn, in tht.. room of Sir James Sinclair Er.. skine, now Earl of Rosslyn, calked to the IL:use of Peers .—Orde red. Mr. STultoss Douiu moved, that new Writs should be ig sued for Members• to serve for the fol. lowing places :—For the Borough of Newark, Not, tinghamshire, in the room of Sir Thomas Manners Sutton, who had accepted the Office of one of the Barons 'of the Exchequer; • for the Borough of Tot. , nest, in the room of Vicarey Gibbs, Esq. who had accepted the Office of Solicitor. General ; and for the Borough of St. Michael'i, in Cornwall, i n the loom of Mr. Dallas, who had accepte d the place of Chief justice of Chester. Mr. BLACKFORD brought in a•Bill to enable the Proprietors of the Manchester Cartel to raise Ma lley to complete the same.--Read a first, and or. detect to he read a second time to.rnorrow, Mr. AL EXANDIR brought up the Report of the Pension and Matt Duty Bills.—Ordered to be lead a third time to.morrow. The Resolutions of the Committee on the , Qua. rantine Duty were read, approved, and a Bill or. dered Accordingly. The Irish Office Indemnity Bill was read a' ae. cond time, and ordered to be comolitte4 on Mori. day. J WAYS AND MEANS. On the Motion of the ettArrcau.ol of" the Ex. ensgul it, the House resolved itself into Qom. mime tai Ways and Means. The SesAxatt having left the Chair, The CHANceLt.oit. of the EXCHIQUIR ob. served, tbar be would take the earliesuopportunity of bringing forward .the Ways and Means of this year. In the mean tune, h owever , h e moved, that three millions should be raised by Loan on Exche. quer Bills. This Motion was agreed to, and the Reioiution ordered to be reported to the House.— Report to be received to.morrow. LOYALTY LOAN. The CHANCIILLoR or the EXCliNtalt. gave notice, that on Monday' next he would movc lona Resolutions relative to the Loyalty Loan. Lori AI ARS HAM observed, that on a farrier occasion he had stated the 'mode in which he meant to bring forward the proceedings reopening the Sheriff's Rawlins and Cox. He intended that wit. *leases should have been called to the Btr to sub. stantiate the charges against them. He now be lieved that no such examination would be required. The evidence as it was taken before the Committee, he thought, would be sufficient ; and he was, in some measure, authorized io say, that the parties them. selves did not with for any other. He understood, from a conversation which he had with the Counsel of the Sheriff's, that they did not mean to prudoce exculpatory evidence. This, however, he could not pledge himself for, as he had no positive as. nuance on the subjen; however, in order to allow them time to make up their minds, 'he would post pone the Motions which he intended to have made to.day till Tuesday next. He trusted that this would make no material difference to the House. Mr. FOX did not by any means intend to make any objection to the motion of the Noble Lord. He rose merely for the purpose of expressing, in two words, his opinion of the evidence that was intended to be adduced on this occasion. He conceived that when a penal proceeding was instituted by the House against any individual, or set of individuals, and when it was called upon to sit in a judicial ca. pacity i lt ought to be directed by evidence beard at its own bar, and not by evidence transmitted from another place. He did not wish that this should be applied to the present case, particularly if the parties concerned were not inclined that dence should be heard ; that was another matter. There might be no occasion to call any evidence that should affect the accused persons. . But there was one word which he wished to say respecting something which had fallen from the NO;ble Loid. It had occurred to hien at the moment. It wis said that the parties themselves did not intend to call any evidence. Whether they did or titic - re .- was sure he did not know. But in case any thin should.. occur which might put it in the power of the Sheriff's to prOdtiCe some exculpatory evidence, which they had-not hitherto been enabled to find, he hoped that this would -not be understood to be, styerseded ; because such evidence, heard at lite Bar, might have great .weight , with the House in direet. iog.their decision. All he wished, therefore, was that this matter should in completely open. The SPbetttlilt then ordered the Order of the Day to be read, and Lord 'IVIARSHAIA moved, thatit should be fixed' for. Tuesday. The question being put, Lord 111 , IRS11/111f stated, that he certainly 'had understood that the Sheriffs had intended to call evi: dente respeding a point not included in the evidence before the Committee. He now, however, was in. formed that rhey meant to call no evidence. It was therefore to prevent their being taken by surprise, to allow them time to make up their minds on this he a d, and to give the Haute an opportunity of con. suiting precedents, that ite moved fur the Order being postponed, Mr. Fox explained. • The CHANCELLOR of the EXCIIEQUER ob. served, that the House had and ought to have the power of governing its own proceedings. He did nor at all agree .to the . principle started by the Honourable Gentleman on the other side ( me. Fox) in its full extent, that in a penal case the House was bound to hear evidence at its own Bar in the event of such being offered. The constant pradice of the House, previous to the year 1770, and before the passing of the Grenville Bill, t'as, to decide in such cases on the evidence given before a Seleet COM. mittee. He did not say that the House might not at otherwise. He only said, that this was the mode of proceeding formerly, anti during the time when the evidence was given before persons who might :aridly be called a Seled Committee of the House. Credit was then always given to such cvi. Bence. Ti m e only alteration made by the Grenville Bill was, that instead of a Seta} Committ ee , th e witnesses were examined before persons who them. selves aeted upon oath, and who received evidence on oath. Surely then the House would not give less credit to evidence taken-on oath, than it formerly did to evidence not bound by such an obligation. At' the same time he admitted, that sometimes of late a contrary pradice had Prevailed, as io the case of Shoreham, and one that had occurred the ocher day, that of Liskeard, In the Case of Cricklade, some discussion had arisen on this point. It was put off from day to day, and no decision was ultimately given. This was the outline of the precedepts. He did not wish to enter now upon the discussion; but merely stated his opinion, that in consistency with . a proper regard to its own privileges, the House could not now assume to Itself less power than it did in former times. The Members would turn the sub. jed in their minds, not only with a view to the present question'," but with a view to what was of infinitely greater importance, the general pradice of the House. Mr. FRANCIS thought,. that evidence ought, in every, judicial praceeding, to be heard before the judges. This would 14 a great. satisfattion to the House ; and he w as at present inclined to think that entletnen could. not, in, honour and •justice, decide upon a Venal case without hearing eviden ce at the - Bar. He hoped, therefore, tharbefore Tues. day, .the. House would deeply refl-Et upon a question which, independent of the present case, was in it.' self of so much importance. The Order of the Day was then postponed till Tuesday ,next. DEFENCE OF THE COUNTRY. Mr. WINURAM asked, when the Papers for which he bbd moved would be laid before the . Home ? The SECIRTARY at WAR replied, that he did not know exadly, but that he would inquire, 40 that due notice would be given to the Right Honourable Gentleman before they were brought fprward.
