After several observations froM the Lord Chan cellor, the Marquess of Lanadowne, the F.; )11 Grey, the Earl of Lauderdale, the Earl of Liverpool, the Marquess of Bute, and other Lords, no deci sion was come to, except that strangers should be excluded, and they remained excluded, during the examination of the evidence.

It is neither more nor less than an exhortation to the pedple of Ireland to take advantage of the supposed distresses of the Em pire, which we are told are " propitious" for Ire land, and, by making use of " her hardy, brave, and numerous population," to obtain a repeal of the Union. Not by legal or constitutional means ; as we are told that nothing can be ex pected from Patliament ; that it would be "vain, stupid, absurd," nay " impious !" to look for any thing but Oppression and' insult from Eug laud—and that of coure our liberty and prosperity must be sought by measures of violence. 1-Lip. oily the poison thus put lot() operation is limited to a small range, and neutralized by the excessive dullness of the trite sophistry in which it was conveyed ; but did We suppose that there were ten persons of common sense who held these desperate opinions, we should remind them that the experiment of putting down the loyal (for they should be exterminated before such events could take place) by force of arms has been tried already more titan once, and that it has as often tailed. , --We should inform them that the people of Ireland will never motile to wage war to. England, but that 011 the contra' y as many hands would be raised now, to preserve our connection nnendangered, as'formerly were lifted to suppress the murderous mob which arose twenty year, ago, professing the same sentiments as the Chronicle. If any should be found so ridiculous as to think that more success would attend such efforts now, they would soon learn that they had only brought on themselves destruction, and curse the hour when first, by the advice or instigation of seditious Newspapers or Demagogues, they joined the ranks of United Irishmen—a name honourable its appearance,.butin reality the watchword of as sassination and civil war." one tit 1.

It will be recollected, that the defendant has been some time in confinement to abide his trial on several indictments for his publican ,on at-vari ous scandalous, seditious, and blasphemous libels. He was this (lay brought .up to plead to two new indictments of a similar nature. The indictments having been read by Mr. Dealtry, the proper offi cer, the defendant put in an affidavit to answer both but as it had only one stamp annexed, the Chid' Justice was of opinion, that as it was an answer to two several indictmeuis, it was neces sary it should have two stamps, and could not be received. The plain , iff was, however, allowed further time to amend. IN THE MATTER OP CHARLES PEARSON, GENT. ONE, &C. This, it will be recollected, was an application made in last Term, calling upon Mr. Charles Year son, or St. Helen's-place, to . shew cause why he should not answer the matters of an affidavit, charging him with having improperly lent himself to the framing of affidavits, purporting to have been made by two persons named Jones and Ed wards, on behalf of the defendants Kinnear, Woolf and Levy, convicted of the late mercantile con spiracy, without communicating the same to those defendants' regularly retained attorney, Mr. Hackett, c.:; St. Swititin's-lane, tending to shew that Mr. Adams and Mr. Harmer, the solicitors fur the prosecution, had improperly communicated with the Jury who tried the defendants during the interval of their adjournment. Mr. SCARLSITT and Mr. CHITTY now Spewed cause upon affida-vita, shewing that Mr. Pearson had acted in this affair purely from motives of public spirit, and not with a view to .any private emolument or advantage, anti that he himself had been deceived by the persons who had deposed to the affidavits in question, and that be had been induced to act upon their representations, upon a suggestion, that it he communicated the affidavits to the defendants' solicitor, the solicitor for the prosecution, Mr. Adams, would have withheld the certificate of Lewis Levy's brother-in-law, who had been instrumental in procuring the affi davits in question, and against whom a commis sion of bankrupt was then depending, to which Mr. Adams was solicitor. Mr. GURNEY was heard at considerable length; and atter hearing the case on both sides, and duly considering the matters alleged in the affidavits, The COURT were of opinion, that although Mr. Pearson's own affidavit (which their Lord ships were bound to believe) freed him from the imputation of having acted from sinister motives, yet his conduct was such, in not communicating with the defendant's solicitor, as to call for the severe animadversion and reprehension of the Court (which they now expre,sed) ; but a ny further proceedings they thought would not b e warranted, and therefore the Rule was dis charged.—(.l;4w Times.)

On the Order of the Day for the commitment of the Cotton Factories Regulation Bill, Lord KENYON observed, that this was not in any manner a speculative question, but a (vex ti on of practical humanity, arising out of the ac tual sufferings of the children employed in the Cotton Factories, for which no relief was to be found in any of the provisions of the Common Law, and therefore it became necessary to resort to a special legislative measure. His Lordship proceed ed to enter into some detail of time evidence given before the Committee, for the purpose of shew ing the injury that resulted to the health of tio, vimildt en, from being employed for 14, 15, or 16 hours a-day in places heated to 80, 85, and nearly 90 degrees ; and that though the evidence of some of the medical men was -upon this point contra dictory, yet that as he contended 4liere were am ply sufficient facts given in evident a to prove that the ill state of health of these children, arising from the number of hours they were kept at work in the manner described, imperiously called for legislativeinterference to prevent that waste of human life which such a system produced. The Earl : of ROSELYN spolte at considerable length against the Bill. He contended, that ac cording to the principles established by the best writers on political economy, legislative inter ference in such cases was neither wise nor politic. The parents of the children were naturally and evidentiy the best guardians of the health \ and comforts of their offspring—and it was a fixed principle, that free labour should be interfered with as little as possible. The weight of proof lay with those who maintained the contrary posi tion. He expressed his disapprobation of the steps taken out of doors, and the various public writings which appeared with a view to prejudice or influence their discussion upon this important question. The Noble Earl also entered upon a still more extensive view and examination of what had appeared in evidence before their Lordships, the tendency and result of which, he argued, were totally different from the inferences drawn by the Noble Mover of the Bill. Time works in which the children were employed, were not injurious to their healths. Nor was the heat of the atmos phere in those manufactories at all prejudicial to them. This result appeared from the evidence of the most enlightened professional men, who were examined upon the subject, or who had given in reports upon oath. In illustration of these posi tions, his Lordship went largely into a review of the evidence. It was evident from what appeared, that the children employed in those manufactories lived to a greater age than others, and he must think it was preferable to employ theta in such works, to turning them Out- to starve. Neither did such work obstruct their growth. The militia DUTY O' WOOL Mr. DICKENSON presented a petition from Fromm., in the Comity of Somerset, against the new Dote on Wool. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thonght, that to receive the petition in the present stage of the 13i11 would be to infringe the privileges of the House. Lord MILTON called upon the House to consider whether it would not be a very ungracious thing to Close its door. to petitions, which, like the present, were not against the Sup.. plies of the year. The SPEAKER conceived that any Duty voted in a Com mittee of Ways and Means was intimately connected with the Supplies of the year, and must be considered to fur►aa part of them. Mr. STUART WORTLEY had two petitions to submit on the same subject, which, however, he should not bring forward after the decision fr, m the Chair. But when the Consolidation Bill shOnld come before the House, he should take its sense upon that particular duly. Lord LASCELLES wished to know when the Bill should be committed ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was under stood to say, that next Moudarwould be the earliest pos sible day. Lord LASCELLES, disapproving as he did of the principle of laying duties on raw materials, thought it recessary that the matter should came to a vote, before the House, fr rII the late period of the Session, had ceased to be fully attended. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was then un derstood to say, that if possible he would go into the Com. mittee next Friday. Mr. CALCRA Fr contended that the proposed dnty 'formed no part of the Supplies of the year. They were nut mention ed in the annual vote, but were intended for the Slain Fund, and evidently therefore not for the service of the year. He hoped the petitions would he received, or that his Noble Friend would take the sense of the House on the suliject. Mr. ROBINSON maintained th .t the new dutie,, stood ex actly on the same ground as former ones, part of which was applied to the Sinking Fund. Mr. LITSIIINGTON followed on the same side, after which, Mr. DICKENSON consented to withdraw the petition. Mr. DICKF:NSON then presented a petition from the town of Shepton Mallet, praying that some steps he taken for the more effectual Recovery of Small Debts.—Laid ea the table. WREXHAM INCLOSURE. Mr. CM:WEN moved the recommitment of the Wlexham Inclosure Bill. After a short discussion, in which Mr. Wynn, Mr. Alder man Waithman, Colonel Wood, and Mr. Wr.ttesley panics pated, the motion wa4 negatived without a division. Mr. HUTCHINSON presented several petitions from the Registrar and other Officers of the High Court of Chancery in Ireland, praying for remuneration in the event of the Bill for regulating the Fees of that Court being passed into a lam Ordered to lie on the table. Mr. GOOCH presented a .petition from the Farmers and Dealers attending Ipswich Corn Marlict, - ptaying that no ad ditio►nal duty might be laid on Malt.—Ordered to tie on ilia table. , Lord mfurox presented a petition from the Prote‘tant Dissenters of Dewsburr, praying for an Alteration of tit* Marriage Act.—Ordered to be on the table. DUTY ON WOOL. Lord MILTON held two petitiom;;;;;efrom Walftfield, and the other from Dewsbury, against the additional ditty upon %Void. Objections had been started against the receipt of such petitions ; but he conceived that there were precedents to prove their admissibility, even after a Tax Bill had pro ceeded farther than the present. He found on the Journals of the House, that in the year 1739. when the famous ques tion of the Excise had come before Parliament, a petition from the City of London had been presented on the ?nth of April by thy Sir, rift, although the Bill imposing the new du ties had been read for the first time in the House. Tice pe titioners prayed to he heard by Counsel at the Bar on the second reading of the Bill. A motion was made that the petition should lie on the table. Oa this a debate arose, and the result was, that the petition was ordered to lie on the table. but that the petitioners should not be beard by counsel on the secoad reading, the latter part hay. ing been put to the vote, aad lost by n majority of 214 to 197- It was impossible to find a case mote in point than the pre sent. The Bill was in the House, and the limit for receiv ing petitions seemed to hare been extended and fixed to the second reading of such nieas , rre. He quoted several pre cedents to show that the petitions might at least be r: - ad to the House, even if they wra•e not received. He then pre sented time first Petition,_which was from the traders amid ma nufacturers of V. - Airfield, against the dot, upon Foreign Wool, and stated that merchants who ex , ected large quan tities of coarse wool from Russia, had, in consequence of the - ~: c~~r
