Mr. /10B110USE . presented a petition from a number of respectable tradesmen in Camberwell and its neighbourhood, praying that the Rules of the Kin g ' s B enc h may b e a b o li s h e d . —Laid on the table. USE OF MACHINERY, AND WAGES OF IVORIi. MEN. Mr. ATTWOOD presented a petition from the cotton-wea vers in the town and neighbourhood of Stockport, complaining of great distress; and praying, as was understood—first, that some. measure should be adopted to check the use of machi nery ; and next, that the local Magistrates should be empower eil to fix a minimum of wages. It was the opinion of a veri large body of men, that these , were the only means by which their distress could be averted. _ • The petition having been brought up, Mr. O. PHILIPS said; after all the inquiry he had made with respect to the condition of the weavers of Lancashire at the present moment, he was inclined to think that they had exaggerated the statement of their distress. The cotton-spin ners' wages were, it was true, very low ;' but The price of pro visions was so extremely moderate, that they could live coot. fortably on those Wages. That was undoubtedly the case when he wax last in Lancashire ; and the fact was proved by the re duction of the poor-rates, as well as by the reduced number of applications for private charity. With respect to machinery, he would now re.essert what he heel formerly repeated, namely, that where machinery was used the ,wages were the highest. • Where cotton machinery was introdu.cedi the comforts and wages of the artisan were improved. They were paid more for managing ma chinery, than for the mere labour of their own hands, He wou ld contend, that no means were so effectual for the benefit of the manufacturing class, as the introduction of machinery ; and if Parliament were foolish enough to comply with the prayer .of those who wished to discourage mac hinery, they wo u ld inflict the greatest possible injury on th e public, and espe c i a lly on ! the petitioners themselves. If a minimum of wages were esta_. Wished, so far from the weavers being relieved by Such a pro ject, they would at one tim e o f t h e year h av e n o em pl oyment at an. —(Hear, hear !)—Ti c e moat prudent course would be, to leave the trade perfectly unshackled, and open to the arrange ments of the parties immediately concereed—those who em ploy labour, and those whose labour was so employed.—( Hear, hear !)—ln his opinion, the sale and purchase of labour ought to be as unrestrained as the sale and purchase of any other commodity whatever.---(Hear!) CL RWEN was convi nce d that if a minimum of wages were established, it would produce great mischief: Four or five years ago, when severed p e ti t ions similar to the present were laid before the House, a C omm ittee was appointed to consider of them. Delegates f r om the operative manufac turers, and other individuals conversant with the subject, .were then examined ; and he believed not one person attended 'who did not go away perfectly satisfied that.- such a system would be most mischievous. Amongst the Members of the Corn. mittee there was not the slighteatsdifference of opinion. ' Mr:BENNET said, a v er y useful publiention'on the %tib jeet of machinery, writt en b y M r . tolibett, had been circulated throughout all the manufacturing counties, and had effected a change of opinion no less extensive. Those who had not read that work ought to read it; because there was no publication, which, fora rational and Practical view of the subject, could be compared wish it. Ile - n a d learned more frig!' it than from any publication of the kind lie had ever read. ' Sir I. COFFIN said, if th e use of machinery were abolished, tivo.thirds'of the manufact urer s of this country would be re cloyed to starvation. Mr. It IC'ARDO said, much information might, undouht etily, be derived from Mr. Cobbett's publication, because he explained the use of machinery, in such, a way as to render the subject perfectly dear. He was not., however, altogether satis fied with the reasoning contained in that pamphlet: because it was evident, that the extensive use of machinery, by throwing a large portion of labour into the market, while, on the other hand, there was no corresponding increase of demand for it, must, in some degree, operate. prejudicially to the working classes of the community. But still he would not tolerate any law to prevent the use of machinery. The question Ives, if t h e y gave up a System which enabled them to under s ell i n t h e foreign market, would other nations refrain from pursuing it ? Certainly not. They were therefore bound, for their own:in terest, to continue it. (Jentlemen ought, however, to inculcate this truth on the minds of the working classes—that the value of labour, like the value of other things, depended on the rela tive proportion of supply and demand. If die supply of labour were greater thatecould l tie 4 e e m p p r l u o ( y ie e n d ee , t , ( he vi n h d ic i i e l people must - he b y e 'miserable. But the people had the: remedy in their own, ands. A little forethouht, a lt would exert , if t were Opt made such machines of by the poor's-laws,) a little Of that Caution which the better educated felt it necessary to' use, , would enable them to improve their situation. Mr. MAXWELL differed from those who were of opinion that a low.ratiof wages was serviceable to a country. The revetse he conceived to be the fact; because, front the circum stance of low wages, a greet degree of crime and discontent were engendered ; and when that, was the case, great'expence .Ilight lion. r gentlemanr (' must be incurred in the proeeelition and puni s h ment of offend... etv. k isstm) would pay some attention to lid s petition.

On the motion of Mr. SCABLETT, the Lancaster County Court Bill went through a Committee, the Report was reeeived and ordered to be taken into further .cousideration on WedthlS day next. Lord A. HAMILTON remarked, that there were 26 Orders of the Day on the paper,, and complained that one of them re•. specting Scotland (the Sheriffs' Court Bill) stood for a third reading, without having been yet' discussed. He hoped that it would be brought on at such an hour as to admit time for deli.. beration. The LORD ADVOCATE of Scotland said that he was ready to proceed with the Bill at this moment, if other lion. Gentlemen would yield to him precedence. RECIPROCI'fY OF DUTIES. Mr. HUSKISSON moved the Order of the Day for the Committee upon the Reciprocity of Duties' . Bill. " Mr. ROBERTSON said, that he feared the effect of this Bill would be to take away the last safeguard of their naval su periority. He knew no more efficacious way of preserving that maritime pre-eminence, than by levying a higher duty on the ships of those countries which could build them cheaper than the British. America could build much cheaper than they could, and Franceand Portugal were also advantageously placeu, in the same comparison. Ile 'did not mean to oppose this Committee ; but when they went into it; he only implored them to consider seriously the state of the maritime interests of Cheat Britain, with a, view, if not to their pro Motion, at least to their protection.. Nothing allbided him greater pleasure than to have heard the First Lord of the Treasury (the Earl of Liverpool),at a Meeting ofship:.owners, in the city of LOndon,' state that it was not her insular situation which alone afforded security to Great Britain from • foreign Invasion, for that had been found defenceless at ITeral periods of her earlier history; but that it was to the principle of her navigation laws she was indebted for secUrity. The House ought, therefore, to pause before they equalized the international duties, which would de prive them of their present superior maritime advantages, HUSKISSON regretted that any discussion was ex• cited upon the Bill at this moment, and lest it should be pro longed, he would consent to postpone the Committee until next Monday. . LEATHER TAX. Mr. CALCRA FT said, that with reference . to .one of the dropped orders, his notice of motion for the repeal of the Leather Tax,-he saw no chance, in the present state of the business of the House, of reviving it in the course of the present Session. He must, therefore, content himself with giving notice, that un less between this and the next session, a great alteration was Made in the mode of collecting this tax, or unless it w-as re pealed altogether, he should feel it his duty to bring the sub. ject . early before the House. _ - Mr. WESTERN postponed his motion, which stood for next Thursday, until the 11th of June, and until the Name day he meant to defer his motion respecting the qualification of Jurors. He hoped his Hon. Friend behind him would give him precedence on,that day. Mr. HUME consented to give precedence, and would there • fore postpone his motion on the inexpediency of punishmen fOr expressing opinions against religion, from the Ilth to the 19th of June. STANDING ORDERS. • Mr. BANK) brought up the report Of the Committee upon the Standing Order, which r equ i re d a reference to a Select Committee previous to the introduction of any new measure on the subject of trade. The report recommended the repeal of that Standing - Order: _ _ _ Serjeant ONSLOW said that he had introduced the Stand• ing Order alluded to, in consequence of a similar legulation having been made - in the House of Lords. Mr. CALCRAFT would yield to the recommendation of the Committee, although he thought such a standing order might often prove most salutary, in preventing the hasty introduction Of most mischievous Bills. In pursuance of• the recommendation of the Committee, the strulding,order was rescinded. COMMUTATION OF TITHES (IRELAND). On the motion of Mr. 0011LHOIN, that the House should resolve itself into a Committee on the Tithes Commutation: (Ireland) Bill, Sir JOHN NICHOLL rose to Offer a few observations. This Bill, he observed, did not confine itself to the tithes of the Clergy, ,but went also to affect the tithes of the. Laity, who were kneten to possess a great portion. Ile thought possibly a case might exist for the applic a tio n o f t hi s measure to some _parts of - Ireland ; but he objected to it as a principle, and above all protested against' its extension to England. He com plained that this was not particnlarly marked in the pnamble, which ought to state the special circumstances upon whiCh only it was founded. In a measure of this kind there were two points which patticularly demanded attention ; the one was, that a fair and adequate compensation should be given, --he did not mean that it should extend to the utmost penny the law would give, bUt it that should b e fairly estimated between the parties. This should be most f a i r ly guarded. against, even where the commutation was voluntary, but Mere especially where they resorted to an opposite course. The next point was, that the attention should be had to the price of commodities And the value' of money. These ought us be most earefblly at tended to, and if they-were so in this Bid, unwilling as he was tnnietittle with Church property, or to speculate at lain such matters ; if the Bill operated to remove the existing evils and no more, and that it was not to extend elsewhere, under the cireumstantes of Ireland, he should not object to it.—(Hear The House then went into the Committee. Mr. tiOULBURN, in moving that the preamble be post. poned, assured his Right Hon. Fnend.(Sit John Nicoll), that the suggestions he .had throvin out on that branch of the sub. ject would not go unattended to. On' the first clause, enabling the Lord Lieutenant to appoint Vestries,dupon application, to carry the provisions of the Act into exec -talon befog read? Mr. wginiEriEbia observed, that it would be a fortunate thing if Irish Vestries were found to be so full of peace and concord, on which English Vestries were so deficient. The clause was then agreed to. On the - next clause, requiring that 14 day!ki t notice should be: given to the Incumbent of such Vestries, being read, Colonel BARRY observed, that it frequently' happened that _the incnnthent was not resident, in which case It would be dif. licult to serve the notice on him personally within 14 days. Mr. V. FITZGERALD said, the in cum be nt oug h t to at . tend once a month- to look aftet his rights.' • - • Clause agreed to. Mi. WILLIAMS objected to the discretion being vested in the Lieutenentoif making the Rill operatiVe or not. Mr, COULBURN said it was requisite, on account of the local circumstances which might render it advisable or other. wise, that`the Lord Lieutenant shottld have the discretionary, power in question. Mr. Secretary PEEL thought with his Right Hon. Friend, that in the present state . of Ireland such a thseretiati was well. vested. WETHERELL considered this discretionary power an unornalous part of un Act `of Purliument : either it wur un Act, or it was not. Mr. I'I4I. I NKETT said there was no anomaly in the provi sion in question. It was the case with many other Acts, which left the discretion, of place and time to sortie other branch of the Government. The next clause was then put and agreed to. On the clause regulating the formation of Select Vestries to Sir H. PARNELL felt the objections of tbe i ßight Hon. Gentleman had been pressed rather toes far, - and lid not think them of sufficient weight to . justify the llon.se in not passing the Bill. Mr% V. FITZGERALD begged td say he did not wish to prevent the Bill front passing, but had pointed outsome of ibi imperfections, from :a wish to see it Made' as operative as possible. Mr. DENNIS 'BROWNE offered a 'few remarks on the difficulty in the way of. giving effect to the Inietitfentl of the i 13111. . Mr. ABERCROM BY noticed the exchisien of persons film the number those whir were eligible to be called upon to :mitt .in carry ing this measure into effect, whose tithes Were in arrear. In these it might lie desirable to make soirit%3lteration, and to admit those to act who were not more than a year in arrear. Mr. — Secretary P 1 EL. wishing to obviate the difficulty cam plained of, would be willing to entertain the soggestion thrown out by the Hon. Gentleman, or any other that might he offered for that purpose.. That man, be must reined*, took .upon him self an easy task who engaged to prove that the•execution of the present measure was opposed by . , many diffiulties. It could not be otherwise in a case of this nature,; where the Bill before them applied .to a country which ,contained 2,000 pa rishes,'diminished, indeed, by the union s of several. parishes, - to ll'or 1,200 incitinbeneies, and in which millions of persons were plying tithes. But he should like fo see,any other cies , sore proposed by th ose w h o disapproved of , this, and: if to , prove that there were Imperfections In it could be rer,artlett as a valid ground 'of oppoSitiOn be was confidant that lie should be abl e t o start objections whic h in the case ,supposed must be wtclusive. He proceeded to point" out the difficulties which wciithl attend having recourse to a Commission, which had been suggestede and he expressed himself decidedly of opinion, that the prin ciple of adapting parochial ;niachinerY must be edopted, or a compulsatery assessment of tythes made throughout Ireland. To eppose that principle for which he contended was, in his view of the subject, to oppose the commutation of tithes alto gether. On this occasion he thought it right to speak briefly to the'prineiple of the Bill, but he thought the better course would-be toconsider it clause by clause. It was only in this way that they could hope to come to any satisfactory arrange- Mr. V. FITZ.GER ALD said. the .Right Hon. Gentleman, Wile had , contended that the Bill ought to he discuss e d c l ause by clause, and re c o mmen d e d that they should abstain front discussing the' Oneral principle of the Bill,. had himself in dulged more in general discussion than any other Hon. Mem ber who had tifien part in the Procetslings of the Committee. For his owl; part he - had not opposed the principle of the Bill, but he had contended that the - particular means by which it was to be carried into effect were inapplicable, to the present situation of 'lreland, He admitted that. the difficulties to be encountered were eonsiderable, but was not to be told that these were'to seal'his lips, and to preclude hint from suggesting any alterations thut he might think necessary, it being idsways re membered that he 11311 opposed not the principle o the Bill, but the principle of a particular provision-41 Thu Bill. • , . :M. S. RICE tn .rgested that it might be expedient to wake the qualification of those who were to assist in carrying this Measure into effect, derivable not from=what they paid tO tithes, but from what they had paid to the county rates. Mr. WETHERELL was in this instant:e disposed' to pro,. vide that the arbitrator should he named" by a Onion of the tithe-payers. Some difficulty would then arise as to what should be the qualitivation, and what the number of the voters. Ile , however, was favourable to the principl e of fixing on a given number of tithe-payers to name the arbi:rater.

Any alteration that could be effected that would seem•likely to secure this object he should be dispo s ed to a d opt. It had , bean proposed to make the parties acting under this bill derive their qualification from the county-rates. however, thOught it would be better to adhere to the valuation of tithes. —lf this bill were proPMy modified; he was convinced that it could easily be carried into effect in every, village in the county of Wicklow. Mr. V. FITZOERALD said that these V& tries were not at all inalagous to those which now existed i n lrelatid. What he complained of was that the Vestry would be:too Mr., R. SMITE! . pointed out some verbal defects. in t h e clause; and thought it would be better to let it stand over to be amended. Mr. (OUIOIIURN assented to the proposal'. Sir FI. PanNimt. and Mr, V. FITZ4EILALD nititatdly ex - plajped. _ Mr. A BERCROM BY contended that the word "Tender" should be substituted for the word " Payment." Mr. DEN `IS BROWNE said, there could be no alteration in the system of the Tithes, without a new survey of the country. Mr. S. RICE said it was impossible, as the Bill now stood, fir such a vestry to be constituted as would carry into effect the intention of , those who framed, it. - After a few words, the dative was postponed for the purpose of being amended. Colo4l BARRI' propos,sl to expunge the clause which gives to the Crimmissinners the power of increasi Livings lawn the average of the last seven years, should they think fit so to do. Along Ilifictussion ensued, and the Amendment wat ultimate ly withdrawn. Mr. GOUI4IURN then moved, that if*. should appear to The Commissioners that the average of three years is nut a fair valuation,, !Lend' be lawful for the Commissioners to nit; the sum not more than one-third.. . • • 'The House divided For . the Amendment Against it • - t;:i Majority. - On our return to the Gallery we found Mr. M. A 'rays culling upon the Irish Members in the House tounite with him to expell this Bill from Parliament, aknne tending to increase the revenues of the Irish Clergy one third above what they have hitherto enjoyed. GOULBURN agreed with the Hon. Gentleman in call ing upon the Irish Members to turn their attention seriously to this Bill. The Hon. Member himself could not surely have read the Bill; and certainly could not be aware that the regula tion he objected to was not obligatory on either party. -1k BROWN objected to the and thought ti,e best count for the House to adopt would be to let the 'Chair.
