In &Committee. of Privileges, the consideration of the Petitions of the Irish Bishops of Meath and Kildare respecting. their title to Precedency, prior to all other. Bishops, after the Metropolitans, with the exception of the English Bishops of London, Durham, and Winchester, as we have al ready stated. After some discussion among their Lordships upon the point, the Committee came to a resolution implying negative upon the claim. BANBURY PEERAGE. The consideration of the claim of General Knollys to the Earldom of Banbury being re sumed, Lord ERSKINE, in a speech of considerable length, made a variety of observations favourable to the claim of the worthy General, and stated a number of resolutions which he meant to propose for the adoption of the Committee in the same view : these principally related to facts, which he wished to establish, as having resulted from for mer investigations of the case. The first of the.: being formally moved, a dis cussion of some length ensued, in which Lord El leuborough, his Grace of Norfolk, and the Lord Chancellor, delivered their sentiments ; the first mentioned Peer argued against the adoption of the Resolutions proposed by his Noble and Learn ed Friend. The Noble Duke was decidedly against the propositions of his Noble and Learned Friend (Lord Erskine), and thought their Lordships should come to a decision in a way and form in which the question could never be again re sumed; and intimated his intention of MOVIII ,, as a resolution, that the Petitioner, WilliamKnolivs, had not made out his title to the Earldom of Banbury, and therefore that he was not entitled to the same. The LORD CHANCELLOR declared, that the best consideration he had been able to give the sub ject, did not sutler him to draw any other eon elusion than that, on which he had founded his opinion last Session, "which was unfavourable to the elaims of the Petitioner. . After'soine explanation between Lords Erskine and Ellenborough, it,was agreed to postpone the further consideration- of the case till this day sc'n night. The House then resumed, and prayers were read; SHORT HAND WRITERS. Earl STANHOPZ rose and observed, that the rigtt.of petition;ng the LegiSlature 'Was_ one of the most sacred of those enjoyed by the subject under the Constitution: they had a. right to be heard either by themselves or their Counsel. It was the duty of witnesses to attend 'on Commit tees of the House ; s hut it was not justifiable to make any charges against them upon that account. On this occasion, he had no complaint to make against any of their Lordships Qificers. A cus tom had lately been introduced for Short Hand Writers to be employed on such occasions, they were employed to save the time of their Lordship, and to - shorten the business of Committees, He - did not apprehend, ho*ever, that it was proper, and it was perfectly new, to make charges of the kind against individual petitioners ar wit nesses. A bill, or charge of the kind, was made by a short hand writer of the name of Gurrrey, in a way which he conceived perfectly improper.— Any thing which went to obstruct the course of justice in the House, appeared to him in the' nature of a breach of privilege, and that the parties were liable' to be brought before the House. • Lord WALs INGHAM observed, that the employ ment of short hand writers on such Committees, was the usual custom. It was at the option of parties to employ them or not, and the practice in general appeared to be of much benefit. Earl STANHOPE said, he did not refer to a case where it was proposed by parties, but to a case where it`was not proposed by parties. Lord KENYON said a few words to a similar effect with the Noble Chairman of the Commit tees. He noticed that the Noble Earl had seen the short hand writers employed at the Commit tee, and-that no objection was made to' the indul genee Earl STANHOPE replied, it was not a case of in dulgence he referred to ; what he required was justice, and that no pan should be obliged to pay a charge to which he was not liable. H repeat ed his idea of its involving a gross breach of pri= vilege, and as such i he felt his duty to bring it be fore the House., LON REDESDALE also. observed, that the Noble Earl must have.seen the Short Band Writers em ployed, and to which he had made no objection. .could not conceive how the proceeding in volved a case of privilege. The practice wr,s ge nerally understood to be for thetenefit of all par ties, and it considerably shortened the proceedings, .and saved time. it did not follow that because seine particular persons were not bound to pay, that tie short hand writers were not to be paid.— They were generally employ e d by some of those who were parties to the transaction. The. 'iCoble Earl must have greatly strained his mind to con ceive such a thing a breach of privilege ; not(could he conceive any ground for thinking the House could take up the matter. The question was merely between the individuals. Earl, STANHOP Einsisted th a t th e charge to .. which he referred was not justly ma d e ; . au d _let those men, he 'said, if they dare, - attempt to en-, force .the charge by law, and he would bring them mere seriously before the House. . . . Their Lordships then proce. :; :ed. t o forward the Bills upon the table. . . A short - converatioti, took place 'reflecting a Welsh Inclosure Bill to which Lord Stanhope pro posed some amendments ; after which . the House adjourned till to-Morrow. HOUSE OF COMMONS, Titußsrur; The 'Newfoundland Spirits Bill, went through a Committee, the report of which was ordered to be received to-morrow. The Loan Bill was reada third time and passed. The report, of the Committee - of Ways. and Means, was brought up and agreed to. . On thenlotion of Mr. ROSE, it was ordered that the House should to-morrow resolve itself into a Committee on the Free Port Acts. , Mr. ROSE obtained leave to bring hi a Bill fear bringing forward Returns relative to the expellee of maintaining the Poor in .England, The Report of the West India :bicenses Bill; was brought up and'agreed to, and the Bill or dered to be engrossed . , and read a third .time to- morrow. The Reports of the Copper Duties, and South ern Whale Fishery Bills, were brought up and agreed to, and the Bills ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. The Bahama Trade Bill was read a third tin* and passed. The Postage Bill went - through a Committee, the report of which was ordered to be received to-morrow. The report of the Sugar Distillery Bill' was brought up and agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. Sir W. SCOTT spoke, but we could not distinctly hear him from the low time in which he .spoic.e.— We understood him to ask for, and to obtain leave' to bring in the Bill respecting the . Eccle siastical Courts, which he had engaged to pre pare.• This. Bill, as it materially affected the laws as they at present stood, he wished to have the fullest consideration of the House. He therefore only wished to bring it in, that it might he read a first time and printed in the course - of the pre sent session. The Linen Bounty Bill was committed, and the Report ordered to be received to-morrow. The c;HANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, moved the second reading of the Local Token till. He stated it to be, his intention to move, in the Com mittee, to allow the Tokens at present in .cireu lotion to continue to pass for a :given tune. 'With %respect to the Copper Tokens ; we under stood him to say it did not appear necessary . to call them in. The Bill was then read a second time, and ordered to be committed to-morrow. AMERICAi SEAMEN.- Mi. ROBINSON (though the Hon. Baronet was not in his place, who had brought forward th o subject to which he was about t o • call the atten tion of the HouSe), thought it his duty to state what he had to offer. As soon asthe Honourable Baronet had mentioned the case of an American seaman,'who it was said had been impressed, he (Mr. Robinson)•had made it his business to in quire how. the fact stood,, and ever since had at tended in the House, -for the purpose- ,of making such obiervationi as' to him the case appeared to call for, in the presence of the H on . B aronet. ..•• • • . . This, however, the Hon. Baronet had not given him an,opportunity of doing ; and as b e had made no further observations on the subject, he (Mr. Robinson) took it for granted that he meant to say . nothing more about it ;' but content with having mentioned the circumstance, the ITon. Baronet was willing to leave the business alto gether to the Admiralty. -On Monday last, bow - ever, he (Mr. Robinson) understood that the Hon. Baronet had mentioned the circumstance again. He (Mr. Robinson) had been in the House early in the evening, waiting to reply to any thing that might have been said on it, but nothing of the. kind' having been spoken of, he (Mr. R.) as the public business was pretty far advanced, had no idea that it would then be alluded to, and had therefore left. the House. "He understood the case to have been formerly 'stated Iby the Ho nourable- Baronet as follows :—That an American seaman had been "impressed, and was now on board the Enterprize. On inquiry, he (Mr. R.) had found that it was true that a person had been impressed in the course of the last month, of the • same of John WilliaMson, who, at the time of his being impressed, had stated himself to be an ' American Citizen, and who had subsequently ap , plied to the American Consul to he released, on the the ground of being an American 'seaman. On inquiry, however, it had turned out,` that the man, though when seized had stated himself to have been an American seaman, and-to have been'. discharged, was recognised by one of the gang as having deserted from the service of this country, about two months before, when ashore—.and. this had been admitted by the man himself. He ' could farther state, on the general principle, that nothing was so little desired as American seamen, whether they were pressed or not ; as having such persons was likely to lead to some inconveniende and embarrassment : and whenever application was made by a person impressed for his discharge, on the ground of his being an American seainar, if his statement on investigation proved to be cor rect, he was immediately discharged. Mr. CHOKER stated himself to have been also ready to give a satisfactory answer on this subject. He had but just left the House, and was Only in the lobby at the time th e Hon. Baronet adverted to it on Monday. The CHANCELLOR of the_ EXCHEQUER moved, that the House should go into a Committee on the Excise Bill. He also gave notice, that it was his intention (to-morrow) to proposea Duty on Stone-ware Biattles, &c. as otherwise the Gla4s •\(''',
