Itt, I A Al ENT, HOUSE OF LORDS,JusE 16. Message from the Commons brodght up the St. Andrew's, Holbert), Tithe, aft several private Bills. THE SILK TRADE. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that he had a petition put into his hands, which; as it contained nothing disrespectful in its language, and related to a measure of very great import ance to the petitioners, he thought it his duty to present. As to what related to the weavcrs as manufacturers, he was a very incompetent - judge; but he trusted their Lordships would con eider it attentively, and he also trusted that the petitioners would continue to deserve it, as they had hitherto done, by their peaceable and orderly conduct. The petition; which was from the Journeymen Weavers of London against the repeal of the Spitalfields Acts, was then read. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, the Bill, against the passe ing of which these Petitioners prayed, was, it he recollected rightly, considered by Committees of both houses as necessary to bepassed, and those Committees certainly did not believe it would be injurious ; it was, on the contrary, in the conviction that the alteration was essential to the interests of both the la. homing and wieder weavers that the measure was brought in. It however appeared that a very large body of his Majesty's subjects were against the passing at this Bill. On any occa. sion, before their Lordships adopted a measure of this kind, they Would be diSPOsed to give the moat patient hearing to the parties interested—(Heer, hear !)—and if there could be any additional motive to weigh with their Lordships, it would be .fram the quiet, orderly, and peaceable behaviour of this body of men.—(Hear, hear !)—fle spoke not from their conduct during the_ agitation of this measure,; but on former occasions, when the poor.had labOured under the pressure of scarcity. or famine ; and' 'ander the most trying circumstances their conduct had been orderly and loyal. He knew not whether it was not going out of tlie way to state this, but lie felt that he shpuld 'not be'tioinT justice to this class of men if' he hail not called :their Lordships' attention to it. His Lordship concluded by proposing that, agreeably to a standing order of the House, this Bill (as relating to trade) should be referred, in the first instance, to a Committee, to consist of all those Lords who had attended during the session ; and the Committee to meet on Wednesday next, and the parties to be heard. The present 'Petition also to be referred to that Committee. The Clerk having read the standing order, after a few words from the Earl of LAUDERDALE, the motion of the Earl of LIVERPOOL was agreed to. Lord ELLENBOROUtfiI said, he had two petitions toiere-, sent to their teerdship's to the same efThct as that which had just been read. The first was from 1711 of the Master Weiteers (the whole of their number consisted, he believed, of 300) within the operation of the Bill, and they prayed that it might, not pass into a law. The other petition was tram 10,500 inhabitants of St. Matthew, Betitnal-green, who thought that the passing this bill would be produCtive of the worst possible effects.ae regarded the poor-rates. He (Lord Ellenborough) had heard what fell from the Noble Earl (Liverpool) withoitt surprise, knowing, as he did, his justice and candour; and he was sure that every Noble Lord who heard him could also speak to the. good conduct of the manufacturing weavers, who, for half a century, through times of difficulty, distress, and even famine, had been well-behaved and obedient to the law ; anti though every class of persons was entitled to their hardships' attention and justice, yet these persons eertainlY'pomessed more than an ordinary claim to their Lordship' attention. This bill was brought forward at a time when the trade, so far from being distressed, way . melting a progress unusually rapid; the imp or t of the raw material - having Increased from 830,00011 m.. to 2,546,0001b5.; and the duty front between 2 and 309,0001. to 600,000/. 'The apace over which the law : as it at present stood was operatiVe, was a mere speck in the niap ' • over all the'oflier parts of the kingdom, the free principles of political economy ranged, and it seemed as if this measure was now brought for- Ward merely to render all uniform, for no advantage could be expected front it, and . the petitioners anticipated nothing hut int mediate miefortune to themselves - . In principle, certainly, no thing,could he more absurd than that the Lord Mayor and Al dermen should regulate the wages of this or any other species of labour ; but if their Lordships looked to the practical effect, the absurdity would not appear so prominently. In most large manufacturing towns the prices are settled, by agreements be tween the journeymen and masters • committees front each party meeting and arranging them ; and the law, es it regarded the weavers only, added to that arrangement the sanction of the Magistrate, who had in feet been applied to but in two in. Stances where the masters and the operatives could not agree ; and in one case the Magistrates decided for the men, and in the other case for the masters. Their Lordships would recol lect that the trade, as it was at present regulated, had existed for fifty year under the sanction of Parliament, and that capi tal had been invested, and the children of petitioners been edu cated in it.' Tholith to the total repeal of the Acts he was dee cidedlynpposed, , yet there were claitaus which Its 'thought the. journeymen themselves could not object to being repealed, and which he believed there was at disposition on their part to con cede. He particularly alluded to the clause which prevented - the masters from employing their capitals but within ten miles of London. The other clause which the master manufacturere Wished to be altered was that relative to penalties : the time within which they might be'sued for thee wished to be more limited than at present. If the object or the Bill could be ' effected; and the trade be greatly extended, which he greatly doubted, still there were few things that he should more regret than, : to see a new Menchester or Coventry spring up in the luburbs of the metropolis. Lord KENYON presented a Petition against the Bill from the inhabitanttoof Mile-end New Town. Lord CALTHOR PE presented a Petition to the same effect, from the inhabitants of Church-street, Bethnal-green. The several Petitions were read, and ordered to he referred to the Committee on the Bill. The Earl of DARNLEY presented a Petition from certain Inhabitants of Middlesex and Surrey; praying their Lordships' attention to the state - of Ireland.—'.oraered to lie on the table. The Earl of ABERDEEN proposed to postpone the further consideration of the Scotch Entails Bill till Friday next, which, after a few words front Lord ito4stvs and the Earl of LAU DERDALE, was agreed to. MARRIAGE ACT. On the Order of the Day for taking into consideration the Report of the Marriage Regulation Bill, The Earl of WESTMORLAND objected to those proei sions of it which related to the oaths that were to be taken. He wished to ask,' if it was proper to put all the property of persons married Within the power of this law, and to render that pro perty liable to be brought into the Court of Chancery. If the law were duly executed by the persons having the power of granting licenses, there would be no occasion for any provision of this kind. ' • The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that by the law as it now stood, persons taking false oaths were liable to be punish ed by fine and imprisonment, and were not entitled to the pro. perty of those whom they married, Wunder age. This bill only went to subject such persons to the same'punishrrient to which they were already liable, and-provided that it should be done by the interposition of the Attorney anti Solicitor-General, and the information :idea be made in the Court of Exchequer, as well as the Court of Chancery, and a Jury might be called on to de. Bide on the facts of the case. He should; however, move that instead of three years, a much shorter period' should be fixed for instituting this prosecution, and that explanations might be made to the Attorney-General as to the ignorance of the offend ing partiei. He proposed that the information should be filed within twelve months after the marriage, and that the party filing the information should swear that they had not known of the marriage having taken place longer than three months be fore the filing of such information. After same conversation the clause was ordered to be printed, and the Bill taken into further consideration to-morrow. IRISH GRAND JURY PRESENTMENTS. • The Marquis of LA NSVOWN moved the Order of the Day for going' into a Committee on the Irish Grand Jury Present ments' 13111. Counsel were then, acco' riling to order, directed to be called in to argue against the Bill. The Earl of DONOUGHM.ORE objected to the mode of proceeding which had been determined upon respecting the Bill. He understood that Counsel were to be heard to-night against the Bill; but that the discussion was tut to take place till to morrow. He thought it proper that the discussion - should take place immediately after the speeches olCounsel. After a snort conversation between the Marquis of Lail grime ar ant? • Lord .D(3)rounuaintikr, it. was arranged - that Counsel should be beard to-morrow at 5 n'clock, and that the debate upon the Bill sheuld immediately follol.—Their Lordships then adjourned, „ . . •I', I T GTE S DAY, J UN E., 17, 1823. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The St. Andrew's, Holborn; Tithes Composition Bill was read a third time, and passed. The Limerick (city) Local Taxation Bill was rend a third time, and (after a short discussion, in which Mr. Walborn, Mr. Dawson, Mr. IL Gurney, Mr. fMratly Mr. S. Rice, and Dr. Phillimore, took a part) wail ,n sell , Li/NDON.IAREDGE BILL. On the motion of Mr. AMC - in-lan NVoon, the House re. - solved itself into a Committee .'on this Bill, Sir 0. CLERK in the chair. • Several clauses were agreed M,'without any amendment. On the clause relating to the plan of thc! Midge, Alderman WOOD moved tlmt tine words " specification of the plan" be omitted. After a discussion,'in which various Members took a part, th e House divided, when there appeared For Mclennan ,Wood's amend ment , 4 Against it, 60— Majority, 76. • e: On the clause tor graiting 11 1 11613/4from the Consolidated Fund, by instalments, for the buiding of a new bridge, Mr; lIUMI objected to the giAnt, unless an arrangeinent were made to secure the repayment of it to the public. If the Government had more money than it wanted; it ought to remit it to the nation in taxes. He believed that the City of London did novwant a new bridge, and that it was a gross Job. Etery purposerof a new bridge might be answered by inereasingthe water-Way of the old one, which he u nd erstoo d m i g h t b e effect ed for 100,0001. • 1 • Air. 11, SUMNER said, that if 'the new bridge were a job, he was the author of it but he altogether denied that it was a job. Ile entered into some details to show that the present LOndon-bridge 18 a nuisance. The CHANCIN,Wit of the EXCHEQUER' confessed that he had originally been reluctant, to make this grant to the City of 'London without seeing means provided for its repayment. He considered that the building of . London-bridge was not merely a local, but also a national meas ure . li e hail once thought of endeavouring to obtain repayment by imposing a toll at London-bridge; but he found that it would create so much public inconvenience, that be soon rejected such a plan. ,Ultimately, he thought himself' justified in making the grant without any stipulation for its repayment. After a few words front :11 aNcx; the Lola) MAtott opposed the clause, and moved that the Chairman do now re port progress. Sir G. CocKßUlt2sr; Mr. G. BENNET, Rad Mr. n. SUMNER supported the clause. Air. FIUME wished to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer why he would not consent to give the public a reversionary 'claim on the Orphans' Fund for the money thus advanced ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied, that it was not quite clear that it would be jest to continue the duty' :imposed for the Orphans' Fund. After a remark fro:a Sir H. PARNELL, the Committee divided— For the clause Against it - MaJprity - -1;9 On the Oestiort That the Chairman leave the Chair, The LORD MAYOR proposed a clause to, compel the un dertakers to make good damage done to the barge walks and bridges, and to private property along the banks of the Thames as high as Teddington. After a few' words front Sir G. Cocrtntrnx L , Mr. CAvEItT, Alderman Woos, and the LORD . ;14Yott, the elauie was brought up and negatived. Mr. CA.LVERT proposed a clause on the part of the owners of wharfs, &c. between'LOndon and Waterloo bridges, to com pel the city, as conservators of the Thafries, to erect sufficient darns walls, and banks, to protect private prop er ty. This clause was negativecl,at the suggestion Of Sir GEORGE without being brought up. E said he should be happy, `were it possible, to inirnduee a clause to make the promoters of this new . project responsible for all the injury it would 'OCeasion. The CU A tHMAN then left his seat, and it was ordered that the report should be brought up to-morrow. • IRISH TITRES. • Mr. G6I3LBURN., moved the ordor of the day, that the /louse _go into a Committee on the Irish Tithes' Cot posi ion 11111. On She question that the SPLak , :7 leave the Chair for that purpose,. Mr. ,GAR 17,1 4 1,1 s said, that this Bill wonld either operate Us a criminal delusion to the sufferin g peop l e o f I re l an d, or as aet of injustice towards the cler progress. countrythis account he should resist its further The lion. Gent. also com pl a in e d, that at the opening of the suasion, thornest flattering promises had been held out of relief to Ireland ; yet, the 16th of June had arrived and. not one of those promises had been performed. ,lie moved that the Bill be recommitted on this daysismontha._ _ Mr. (10U1,11URN defended the measure, and expressed his hope that the House would proceed to render it as perfect as possible, though some of the objects originally in his view might not he accomplished by it, Mr. 'WETHERELL said, that as no man could expect that the Hill would ultimateli'pass, it was only a useless waste of time and labour to proceed night after night with the dis,: cus.sion of the various clauses. Mr. GAI,CIIArr observed, that it would be but fair to let the Right Hun. Gentleman complete the measure he had be. If tiro. House rejected gun : believed that nothing could give him (Mr. Goulburn) or his friends greater setisfavtion than to be lowed from their own measure.the Right Hon. Gentleman would only have to return to Ireland, and to tell the Bill, the people there that he had had the most benevolent and praiseworthy view towards them e but that the - House of Com mons, regardless of the interests of Ireland, had refused to let him proceed with a Bill, which, if completed and perfect e d as he wished, would have remedied all the grievances now com plained of. Colonel BARRY thought that it would be better to put an extinguisher on the Bill at once, rather than hurry it through in the Present . session. Ile had no objection to proceed with the completion of the Bill it it were to st and over. Mr. W. BA NICES supported the amendment, as the Bill in no shape could be rendered palat a ble to him. Mt. S. RICE concurred in the amendment, but gave Go vernment some credit for a disposition to remedy existing evils. He feared, however, that this measure was not capable of mo. dilication. He had not said on a former occasion, that the comnintatiort for the clergy ought to he calculated upon the average receipts of the last three years, but upon the average of a series of years. Mr. HUME contended that the Holum hail great reason to complain that Ministers had abandoned the ground upon which they introduced the Bill. When it was first introduced, he had asked the Bight lion, Gentleman whether the commutation was to, be calculated upon the actual money receipts; and the answer was in the affirmative, calculating on an average of years. Now the Right Hon. Gentleman had brought in a clause to •add one.third more to those receipts. He (Mr. Homo) thought that -the amendment Weithl defeat the object of the lion. Gentleman (Mr. A. Fallis:) If he wished to do away with the delusion, let him allow the delusion to be corn. pleted, and then-it would be seen how idly Ministers had been legislating. 3ir, GOI3LBUR m N maintained that his conduct had been consistent with the answer he had given to Mr. Hume in the opening of this business. Mr. PEEL argued that no delusion hall been attempted by Government. Of this he was certain, thet-je the present bill wee lost, he should despair of originating any one which could be satisfactory. Mr. ABERCROSIBY considered the bill as utterly useless without the modified compulsory clause, and Proposed there. fore to vote for the amendment. He, for Ills own part, earl buted the rejection of that clause entirely to the Hight !lon. Secretary's (Mr. Yea's) sitting thy the University of Oxford. Air. CANNING admitt ed.the inconvenience of occietionally giving the clergyman an augmentation of his income, but thought it fear more dangerous to break' through the rule upon which Government had uniformly acted, of never compelling any tranefer of property without giving the most ample mdem, nity. Ile trusted that the bill would not lie lost in its present stage. I fit was worth while to put it over to the next Session, let it at least be first Completed. • - Lord EBRINGTON supported the amendment. AIL V. FiTZCIERAI,Ii ((as we understood - him) took the tame aide. General HART said a few words which did not reach th e gallery. Mr. RICARDO suggested the impossibility of actly, und.,,r any circumstances, what Should be the right of the alert; man. 'd yNN supported the principle of ample compen ation. He 1 eg4.ed to remind t e House, that in dealing with tithes, it was not dealing merely with church-property; one third of the tithes M Ireland belonged to lay.impropriators. Sir J. STE WART said, that if the clergyman got.the ave. rage of the last 7 years without any addition, he got More than he was entitled to. It was better, he thought, to put an extin guisher upon the present Bill at onei. -Mr. CALCRArr said, that if the amendment was rejected, he would himself proposia modified compulsory clause. After a few words front Lord A. IlAmivrox, the . House divided, and the numbers were For the Amendment, $8 I Against it, 51 I Majority for the Bill, 15. On re-entecing the gallery, we found the House. iit-a Com mittee upon the Colonel BARRY said, that he apprehended the Bill would be recommitted after it was reprinted with the alterations. Mr. UOULBURN said, that the House would be beit able to decide upon that point on seeing the Bill reprinted. A discussion took place upon the nature of the applotment, the question being whether the net or gross produce of the lands should be taken for the basis in tisiugit'v'Vrttibus verbal amend ments were proposed,'some of which were carried. The Committee proceethxl to discuss the several clauses of the Bit. .. A varV . 7 'lf verbal alterations having been agreed, to, The C1...1RMA:4 reported progress, and obtained lettiefo sit again on Wednesday next. The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at about a QUARTER TO Two °Timex. A LIST OF THE MAJORITY WHO VOTE!) AGAINST R.

IIIIROLL STAR, Sin—The statement in your paper of Tuesday last (purporting to be a Report of the PrOccetlings,of the Gene ral Assembly), relative to the Lanark Schools, is calculated to lead the public to suppose, lo.the first place, that these Matsui tions are parochial schools, supported .by the Parish funds ; then, that the Presbyters of Lanark haVe a rijfrt to dictate what school books the proprietors ,of the schools shall use; again, that the Bible i not regularly read in these Schools ; and, that my father is an enenmy to the practiml, ruoralisy of the. Seriptusm , . . - - NO one who has had the means of ascertaining the , truth of these suppthzitions, 1,;•111 require to be told that they are taaliy without foundation. But there are many who have had no opportunity of ascertaining their truth or falsehood. To these 1 would state-- That these schools were built, and are supported entirely by* the New Lanark Company: That the Committee of 'the Presbytery of Lanark, when visiting them, founded their right of interference art the princi ple, that they !ere authorised to dietatein the same. manner in the case of every pritate seminary, even in tint of a fetrUlY tutor,'a power which few, 1 believe, !unitl be inclined to per mit them to exercise:. That my father is not hostile to the literality ortire Scrip. tures, but that his chief attention has been directed for many years Jo promote the practical principles of genuine Chris tianity : and that, while his private opinion is, that the Shorter Catechism, and many portions of the Bible, particularly of the Old Testament, are unsuitable as lessons for children under ten years of age • (in which opinion he is far from being sin gular for it is one e nt et t a i ne d by man y ver y exce ll ent Chris tians) he has yet cheerfully given way to the wishes of others, who were of a different opinion. The Scriptures have alwayi been, and WV. nOT4 I , rekidarity read twice a :trek, exclusive f!l' Sun dap, fly. an hour eacl: time, and the Colecli:m regularly taught en Sandal's in our Schools ; anti the Committee of the Presbytery are quite aware of this too. I told them so. They then complained, that we Lad at one time 'given up reading the Scriptures'.ibr a week yr On dap, I explainedto them, that this originated entirely in the head masters understanding that what my father had ordct%d regard. ing the Catechism, viz. that it should be taught only on Sun days, applied likewise to the Seripture, which misundert,tand ing was corrected as soon as toy 'father was aware it existed. They ea:pressed theurtrlyee quite s4lierti on this head, but coin planted that the same attcmion *as not paid in regard to the Shorter Catechism as to the Scriptures.' I appeal for the truth of this statement to the teachers of these schools, and to the committee themselves. These gentlemen can best explain how such facts tally with the report there)). pear to have presented to the General Assembly. This report is the More extraordinary, considering, that on the day subsequent to their visit, I celled, accompanied by Mr. Clegg, one of the superintendents of our works, on Ow Reverend Mr. Menzies, clergyman of Old Lanark, who was one of the ( min;ttee, and repeated to hiM that the Scrip tuxes acre regui•.rly read in the schools, ;that they had never bevii prollibikcl, that the Catechism W4l taught to the children on Sundays—requesting of hint , to' state the 140,1 fully in the report, Wilidi I understood he intended to imike to •• the C(Teral Ast4inhly. Mr. Mtnzies said, that the. Commit, tee diet not col l ie to exunthie the Sunday school, anti that there. fore in the r e port to . tht: Gencial 4 - .4etubly, Mr ebeto9utortm Vibe C,..1.,1,t,tnt's 'wing laNpler ou S6niftrio ;Could .71(4 it z1ie, , 1,. floilel • and in this he persisted, althotigh we represented to him that, in that case, the General Assembly, as well as the Vt l- t i r 'i t i l e te . i t ' t ' c u e ' u t rz7 l ::r e utt l lt'i r::w ch l l t ' e w r re:t l 'e n r i'c' t i ti tir p Tie h g . , and to Mr. IllenOes himself. I nits prepared, after this conversation to see the matter stated to my father's disadvantage; b u t dint the whole report should be so' completely opposed to facts, I confess I did net expect. myself have, for sortie time past, in my father's alisence.,hed the charge of our schools, and therefore every thing , lave, stated came immediately under my own eye. 1 consider this statement necessary ; not by any means as recognising the right of the General Asserohlv to call for Such an explanation, but as being *unwilling that 111 r, inpsito and his colleagues should represent to the public ,that any just cause exists Why " the proper /authorities should interfere to protect the Scriptures from being treated with contempt." Illy father is at present in London, and it becothes my duty to lay the real state of the case before the public. In conclusion, I would state, that these remarks on the report in question hold good Only in so* far as that report may have been correctly Kivu in the newspapers.
