They appeared on this important rubject to be all of one mind ; and t'de Hon.

Member's Speech with which he more concurred than in his eepressions of praise on the Hon. and Learned Moyer. The speech sre!!;ch he had that night delivered was certainty one of the very best description and of the most powerful effect, whether he considered its Itimi -41011,1 arreingement. its strength of argument, or its felicity of eloquence. But with ell the ad. 4111tHtion Of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman— Ise hoped he sonar permit hint to be (laded hip ion acct Learned Friend (Sit J. M.), next to the great ebility of his speech, was the prudence end wisilwn which be so happily evinced in keep ing clear of the shoals and quicksands with trifle , lie was surrounded. His Hon. and Learn ed Friend ;tt,d zohsTited the most commendable pi e cautioe in avoiding any irrelevant reflections on our Code at large: he had fixed npon his leedehle object, and by his perseverance and attechmeo to it, he had confirmed those who were doubt , and obtained con Berta to his cause. y all ain't-mei: agreed ss to the necessity of the ;itnendoitn. sew The only question was, which .ciss the lie 6: tootle for the 07 taititeent of the grit d objec! % It was thought advisable to repeal parr of the Criminal 3,4a.,v relating to capital pinitishuieto for feiooy if it , this point they were agreed, the next was the adoption of that mode which would bc mos: satisfactory to the feelings of humanity. It scented assumed as a fact, that the l a w aF, it no'ar stood was a hind of legistatise nuisance, which ought, to he removed as speedily HS possible. The Right Honourable Genleman was greatly recouciled to the view which his Ho nour Able and Learned Friend took of the question, when he found that he was not for expunging the poinothreent of death it: all cases. lie was for al lowing it to remain in all cases of murder. There were some Gentlemen who delighted in visionary theories of improvement, who might believe that there was 110 necessity for the infliction of such puoishment. Woold to God that the crime eva i ei.ionary also! 1 here was no civilized nation under the sun but considered in theor!, the pu nishment of death with as much abhorrence as we did. lint in cases of murder, to all nations it bad appeared necessary. The ,evil practices of men called aloud for the iniiiction of severe pu nishment in extreme cases ; and he therefore was glad that his lion. and Learned Friend had not been led astray by the wild theories of those men who seemed charmed by speculations of visionary legislation., With regard to the mail) question, it might be thought that a Committee was not necessary. From what had been said, he was apt to coincide in the same sentiment. The lloose was 'low in possession of all the grand hoidemental principles of the particular proposi tion. Ihe suggestion had no novelty to recom mend it. The general proposition had been dis cussed in remote periods of our history, and even its remote periods of the ancient world. lie ad mired the classifications which had been proposed by his Hotontrable and Learned Friend, and re joiced at the respect and veneration which he elicited in his approach to the sacred foundations of our Comfit lit ion. The Right lion. Gentleman allowed that he had supported one of Sir S. Ro. milly's laws of amendment, because Sir Samuei's %Vali a kind of insular proposition, not a sweeping themem, calculated to overturn our whole Laws. Witu all the curious fact. product(' by the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Buxton), his view of the Criminal Laws had not caused a diminution crime. Notwithstanding the doctrine of chances us hicks the Honourable Member quoted from the authority of the criminals themselves, he sail,' 14) charm in the communication. The adop• lion of Sir Samuel's law of 1810, had not tended to the diminution of crime. It wail rather tiptoe that it had produced the contrary eilect. The particular species of crime alluded to had increased, but perhaps it was not attributable en. iirely to any detect of that law. 'Some Gentlemen , pushed their theories too far when they recom mended the abolition dour penal statutes. It the ei 'lnitial law now alluded to were absurd,et. had been ito(erted, there was no need of a Committee of In quiry ; the House itself was fully enabled to come , Without any such ceremony. The Ht. Init. Gentleman believed, however contrarily some few tientlemen might argue, that a sense of the punishment of death produced the greatest fear on the mind, and there was no effect equal to the eoniiderat,on of it. He wished to proceed cau tiously, hut not siow!y in the inquiry; and when the Cotionittee of his Noble Friend could determine wh4l model the future ii)attlil Sbmild be fOlifid ed, Which he apprehended might be done at 110 di•odot period, it would then be for them to ad dress the Crown to iaglle COMIIIISSIoits to 71SCer ,Ifit by rrnellrol 811I'Vry how lit tHir present pri -no re conformable to the plan that might hr vtoi l i,.d, or wire callable of being made so. This is the. course he thought it would be must eli gihk to pursue. If the present motion were ear ; ird, he would venture to say that the !louse "mild ere long find it necessary to throw the ttvo Cornmitte t s that would then he pursuing their in glories into one. Ily por•oing the investigation in the otßuner proposed by his Noble Friend, he thought they should arrive at the most satisfactory Air. ScAnLETT said, if that ilhtsttious person who had been more than once mentioned in the course of this debate, could have named his suc cessor, One fitter to act upon his benevolent and enlightened views could not have been found than the lion. sold Learned Gentleman who brought forward this wotion. He pronounced a warm panegyric on the illustrious individual alluded to, and beg t zed to recount an a.,ectlote ot him. When sir Samnet Rotnilly was about to introduce his first Bill to Parliament, he (Air. Scarlett) had advi.ed him to give it a preamble, recording the principles on which he acted, stating that the Fe%erity of punishment, it had been round by ex perience, did not tend to the prevention of crime. tic did so, but the preamble was rejected by the House. Session after Session lie had continued labonis with various success, and at length, by repeated disenssions, the Public and the Home were su, aw.ikened to the importance of the sub ject, that in the 11:11 which he brought it, last Session, the Hanle agreed to the preamble tvitith they had thro , vu out ten years ago—the Privately Stealing fill, which was said to have failed. He maintained that this assertion was not correct, and showed that, as compared with the burglaries, there Was a diminution of convictions for ri vately stealing. He strongly supported the tnn- Iton In a very argutnectistive speech, and de clared that he must vote against the previous quest ion. Alt.

They contain no further discussion respecting the proposition for modifying the Law of Elections ; but all of them, by the remarks they make, aid the tone they have adopted, chew decidedly the state of public opinion, and the agitation which has been excited, Petition• against the proposition have beets numerously► signed in all the Smiuns of Paris, and Meetings for a similar purpose had been summoned in all the adjacent Departments. The agitation is ex treme, and every day that the proposition is per sisted in, adds to the irritated state of the public The Funds have been falling ever since the proposition was first entertained ; anti notwithstanding the declaration of the Marquess DESEOLLES, in the name of the Government, which we gave yesterday, of its unanimous desire to main tain the 'Election Law, without alteration, the panic continued at the Bourse, and the Five per Cents. fell on Saturday so low as 661, though they afterwards recovered shout three-fourths I per cent. The Chamber of Depoties assemble on !Saturday, and discussed and agreed to the pro, jet respecting the manufacture and sale of Gorr powder, by a majority of• 190 to 9. It was said that several of the petitions against any altera tion of the Election Law were to have been laid opon the table of the Clamber of De puties, but nothing is stated in the proceed ings of the • Chamber respecting them ; they have been probably deposited in the Bureau of Petitions, and will be reported along with others by the Committee.
