~. .r.. spina that, ti tre , was more.4lllml the certain than met the alit.' The Country' Bankers, .iron; their 'wish to relieve the people, hail brought themselves into inextricable ditheulties. 'rhe 4ight Hon. Gent, had said that this Tax would compel the miser to ' pay like a gentleman ; but he cotild tell' hint that there were misers in his part of the• country who Avoidd not pay like gentlemen, (Laughter.). Tito, would pay no .Property Tax;andwould only lend their mimey at an enormous interest, which the distressed borrower was obliged to . pay; He would put it to, the Ministers, after all the. dis tresses the country had undergone. whether it was not their duty to relieve that country front this op pressive impost ? They, never would be able to persuade the people that it was lint obnoxious anti ltillieCcMlEV. Ile hadiately interfered, to get e poor woman and her ehildreo sent out toßotauty I)ity with tic'r ho'shand; a convict, and a letter had been re.. velvet! filth': this fa Indy; expressing in glowing terms the comforts they had eojoyed ;, they itad abtir-, .dance ut it/tidily, ootk, and luxuries such , as they caul(' never obtain here. In a short time it was reported that he had orders to'send people to t w it I3ay, and he was Woolly applittfito by 11.1111411 100 wag latcly x Et.'spect,blC titri!tfil to send him and his family. out, as he was ,now obliged to go front ;house to house to beg for bread, being unable to get work. He mentioned this Anecdote, to; prove the general state of the country,, the people of which were actually starv ing-, and to implore Ministers to take oU only the Property Tax, hut every other tax that press. td on, the agriculturist. After a short conversation between Sir G. ITRATOCOTP., Mr. SWAN, and Mr. Loct; LIART, the Yetitioo was ordered* to lie on the . Table. Mr. WEsTERN presented' a Petition from the Nobility, Gentry, Clergy, and Freeholders of the county of .Essevagainst the Propeity Tax, under any motli'ficationhatsoerer,. and praying for the most rigid economy In the public expenditure. Mr. W. P. L 1VE41.251;EY, from rite Most stature coosiderai i:al he could give this quiestion, was convicted, that it w0,,h1 prove sitally sous not : only to the agricultural but.commeteial kterest of the country. He felt the moSt poign ant grief in .eateit,iining a different opirdoo from te„ Right Hon. - Getitleinair to whom, by every tie tnf nuture 411(1 iiift'ction, he was most warmly and trotitufly attached but lie. was confident, that the Right lion Gentleman would be sorry if he Aid directvd. It was utterly impossible, he thought, that this tax conk' be paid,, anal fie flioe4lit the urging it vvould raise general helibg'Of disco'nt'ent, and perhaps a disposition to ilisturbanee in the country. ;He Was sorry .to tres pass on the pa/if:pee of the House, but he was com pelled by‘tios strongest sense of ditty to deliver his xe.ntimentsem.The Petition was read and laid on the table,,.. Lord MILTON pit:sewed a ' Petition from tie Borough of, flighem Ferrers, which was received and read, zfrer a.fea . observations from Mr. Cart- Ordeied to lie on the table It. MIMIC:MANI' presented one: front the town g if Duardee, complaining of the odious andoppres *lire nattire of the Tax, and comletnning the arts practised to render it palatable, by pretended mo difications. The Ps.' itioners implored fiarliament not tOIK.ARke'll artifices. it also represent-0 rotablishinent, as well as the Tax, is dangerous to the Coostitruion. The Hon. dentleineui.uid he declined entering at any len g th on the object, 'ill" 01 4 excellent speech of. his hon. Friend, the Member for Worcester ; but be conic! not refrain .friunSepreltenditig, at every Op portunity, the language held out by :Ministers,— y e would not therefore advise the Noble Lord and his Friends to think that they could biteceed in duping the country by the fallacious gloss. of the wards " and .no longer ;" and.. Whosoever might attempt to insinuate party' motives to-those %rho opposed the iiie4S4We, Wottltl 7 fisol, that their efforts would iinly meet with the contempt they so richly deserved, instead of diprutit%rtheir Op . prteins. Mr. liotrimoN defended What he had, said on a fOrttier ticeoitot respecting the modification of the Tax: he hail now every :trope that he shoilltl see tit properly . moditiett, so us, to meet the wi;lies ; and !Interests of all parties, in . whickca.se itishould Pave hispclt cordial support. A long explanatory cooversition ensued he. twee') , Lord Ca stlereagh and Mr. Brotighatn, re tweeting tvoat the t'ornter lnid said in the early part of Inc eve n ing, as to the et/vinyl of the hie MiniStry in respect to thiii Tax, wbo, by their r r ietches continuing it for four teen, years, "tad exonerated the present Govern eutfruusa the charge of a broach of faith, in pro posing to continue it' for only two years after the, War. Mr. Hysittsor deprekstarthe loss of time "which these incidental tacussions consumed. He event at much length into a review of tite.conibict at the .Opposition, while in power, and contended that it was absurd to say Ministers were d e barr ed front continuing the Tax under any eircunistaOces, trom the charge of 'violating their faith to the country. Had site plan of the late Ministers been iidopted, regarding this Tax, it wnnld haVi been necessary to continue it for three or fOui years tront this Little, instead of two. Mr. TIERNEt' said, that hi had heretofore ab st anted from entering into any diseutsian of the leerits of the, measure to which. the Petition ye -641 ed, and only interfered. on a former evening to:. en the Noble LOlll Ml's so very lively, mid in delv,cd 'in a, degvee of passion alitlivarmth, which lite could - ,ttOt help thinking rather extravagant.

Therefore the Noble accusation againstotherS could have no effect upon the public mind. linr.really, When the , commander. of. lite Forces,. iosteed, of pawn folly con tendi n g against the enemy, resorted to the expedient of • flinging east bottles and 'stink- . pots, it proved ••that he was. on the point of capi tujatioo—(a laugh).

For putting the Memberi on his side of the House eti-. tirely out of view, and looking alone to.the lumi naries on the (it ber,side, he called upon the pnblie to consider the expediency of submittlog to a Tax which, it now imposed, was but too likely to- be entailed 'upon them for ever. M.r. llti:octssoN explained. Mr. V. FITZOKRALO defended, the course taken by his Noble Friend, who, he contended; had not provoked the' discussion. On the previous night, the Noble Lord was-censured for. not having of fered anyAleoce of die measure he inteoded to propose ; • he was, therefore, perfectly jest ified in stating,. from documents, such Nets es tended to . support his case. . • . . Mr, %'yNNa stated, that the,'iime when the Property Tax was to be taken off' was expressly fixed for the expiration of the present Act. Mr..ll:iatlNG thought that the quest ion, whether. • or not filithlied been broken to , %ards the people . by env (Omer measure, was not now the eitestitirr . before the , House. It was perfectly 'competent for liarl,ament to pledge' the Property Tax ; in fact, it had been pledged by Mr. Pitt. No man doubted that.the might not be pledged ; but all that lie now contended was, that it rwas hot no v ,pledged. It, was . .not mortgaged was , not pledged,. therefore there etas now no reason for 'continuieg it. •ThiceVas the whole, extent of the question. • Th e Petition was. then brought up, reed, and , • • ordered to lieon the table. .

CTO this no ans.ver was given, but cries, f9r, ?mate time prevailed of Mr. Brogdett Mr: den . !7 -- Mr. CALCRAin• thought. the establishment pro:- po3ed was 'more extraxegant than the eiremt stances of the country reninred, and objectionable, as increasing the ititteettee of the Crown to an undue extent. .[The then went . through the Estimates, diseussing each item, ati‘l the foilowlog is the elistritet of teductionts which I . !e 011 e4Cll.] 111, the lioitseliold fropps; (including Horse mid Foot Gtt,sr(l!,) he proposed a reduction of about 5600 .

ThiS va , in the I.liiine Establishment, a reduction to the extent .of tell thoiiNand wets. As to the garrisons for Depots, Arsenals, and Dock-rirds, he thought that this was a service for which the ,11,wiiirs and Ar tillery were quite tolequate. ile conceir,ed, that three' thousand risen 'was a stitEcietit num ber for garrisoning .

Hon, Gentlithan thanked the Noble Lord for the, inlet . . matitist. Looking at the floruePstablishment;he found 38 General Officers for Englandend 2'2 for Ireland. Sorely there was no necessity for such a rember. Tile next branch that .came under cons'. deration was the Public Departments. Upon t several Departthents pot together, a considerabl e suit might be saved. He liestowed,higb praise on the institutions' of time Chelsea and Kilmainforn Hospitals, with a view to situ benefit of the court ,try, and thereivard of its defenders.

Gentleman then etitifest into a detailed ilefenre of the Estimates. He particularly expatiated on the advantages of the looian !shunts, especially Corld, as one of the most valuable poz , se,,,ons of the country in a commerical pulpit of view, otraccannt of the value of the trade in that quarter, and the natural fa cilities for carrying it on, afforded by the excel+ lent harbours, particitlarlyia the parts of the islands bordering on the Niorea. . 13e aho spoke mnelt Hs . to the prodigiott; value of our West India possosions, and contentlett that ncl retitle. be made in any part of the- Bellows* before the [louse, consistently. with safety to our possession!. mr,STvART WORTLEY entered first upon._the eoriVlderlirfon of the sitnotitit of forces required for the:protection of oiir colonies. He did not think that any reduction eatrld safely be made in the force. proposed for Canada . and Nova bcoria, rot' Gibraltar, nor tor Ceylon. Brit in the whole ut the force for the Mediterranean, for the Cape 01 Ciotal Hope, and fitr . the.,oltl.West India Co lonies, several thousands . might be spared.' kl e aduritted that the notortuttate situation.oi required the maintenance 'of a large toree ' there, so that be could not quarric with' the number of tWetity-tive : thousand , inert allotted in the: listi l mates for that coutitry. Upon the whole, 110 wished it . deduction to be 'made of 'fo u r tflotliatid inen-froin the Guards, and'looo trout the 'House hold troop s , and he did not thitilt the , force of :20,1100 men for "England, which wotild.then re main, were too many. Ile. saw no necessity for keepicg up the Local Militia,,and considered the I°o;6°Ot Which appeared It'in:cr that head itt the Estimates would be completely thrown away.

'The. spirit by which _they were fortitOrlY sini t uated was now gooe by, autl they now furnished' lint the theatiS of evad ing military service.
