PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, Fun. 27. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave notice, that the House, on its meeting on Monday next, would be moved to proceed to judgment in the Queensberry causes. The Bishop of EXETER presented a Petition from Great Torrington, praying for relief from the duty on coals carried coastwise. Lord HEREFORD presented a petition from a place in Essex, praying for the amelioration of the situation of slaves in the British Colonies. The petition was laid on the table ; but a short time after it was withdrawn, in consequence of an in formality being discovered in it. Mr. STUART WoitTLEY and others from the Commons brought up the Leeds Tithe Regulation Bill. IRELAND. The Earl of LIVE RP6(sl:lidon the table several returns relative to Irish tithes and other matters which had been moved for in anticipation of Lord Darnley's motion. The Noble Earl said the returns were extremely complicated and imperfect, but he thought it right to present them, such as they were, that they might be pr' d, and an opportunity afforded for consulting them before tl'!€ motion on the state of Ireland 'came on.- Other papers might be moved for, to supply the deficiencies. The Marquis of LANSDOWN observed, that it might be convenient for Noble Lords to know that it was not the inten tion of his Noble Friend (Lord Darnley) to bring on the ino- Lion of which he had given notice on Tuesday next. He wished to put it off for some time, and would renew his notice after all the information which could he procured on the subject should be before the House. It was his Noble Friend's intention to attend in his place on Tuesday next, when he would move for further papers, and fix a distant day for his motion. The Transfer of aid's sill, the Reciprocity Duties Bill, the Exchequer Bills Bill, and the Irish Law Courts Bill, were read a second time. The Marriage Act Amendment Bill was reported.—Ad journed.

CHARLES FLINT. ptre.oicavisiirroseionho,ne Mr. DENMAN said, he held in his hand a petition of con tsiicdeer;aabnledintillpeoirutoarneceso7 frreolmatedthetopothweerasdiwnii;iisihstraatlioanteoAf Act t u o s- f Parliament gave to Magistrates. The petition was from a Mr. Charles Flint, complaining of the conduct of a Magis. trate of the county of Stafford, and who acted as the' Chairman of Sessions at Stafford, and also a Member of the House of Commons. He regretted that it was his duty to present a' petition which complained of the conduct of a gentleman for whom he entertained so great a personal respect as he did for the Honourable Memistr for Stafford (Mr. Chetwynde). The petition was very long, and contained man , allegations. The Hon. Member was already informed of their nature, and in his opinion th e y were such a 9 called upon hiM for .an answer. It was probably not unknown to the House, that the town of Stafford had, fora considerable time past, been agitated by the claim of a person named Cooke, to some lands in the pos session of Sir George Jerningham, and also to a barony for which that lion. Baronet was also a claimant. A Mr. 1% ilks, who acted as the agent for Mr. Cooke, got possesion of some part of the property, which had been held under Sir G. Jerningham by a man named k icken. In whatever way Mr. Wilks took vi b s Hyawsokenn'ri.eoc Member j e ou n etis:nl iibifineeeardna meant w itio a nt y :xep t t v reA l o i n i ccd c et h i , odl eigittriu Geo.e his i s odn ( e ll lst If. . the possession of this property, it was not now the question ; —That act was made to prevent wilful trespasses ; and, in his but Penman's)it wrailssg t do l i i i: e ipnujotend, circumstances of the case of Mr. Flint, which have already appeared before the public in, several shapes. The substance was this—that Mr. 1 icken, accompanied by several constables, went to recover possession from Wilks. They broke locks, and took down gates, and succeeded in taking possession of the property, and also of the persons of Wilks, Hammeraley, and another, whom they carried away prisoners. This proceeding attracted a very considerable crowd. There were 300 or 400 persons present, and though many of the parties used very strong language, yet there was no violence attempted—no attempt to rescue, nor any assault. While these things.were passing, information was given to Mr. Flint, who was at The time at Stafford, transacting business for the Corporation.— Mr. Flint was an attorney, and Mr. Wilks was his client : finding that his client was in custody, Mr. Flint proceeded from his inn to the spot, and asked one of the constables by what authority he had taken 111 r. Wilks into custody ? The constable said, that he had his authority in his pocket, and would shew it afterwards. The warrant was afterwards pro duced, and it appeared not to be a special warrant for the occa sion, but a general warrant appointing the party a consta ble. The petitioner stated that this was the only way in which he had interfered. He had never attempted to inter rupt the constable in the discharge of his duty, and had taken no other part in the proceedings whatsoever. Indeed, this was proved by a, very full report of the trial, which he had seen. For this, however, he was included in the indict. ment for a riot, along with others, and tried. It certainly.was a very slight case on which to find a man guilty. The Hon. Member (Mr. Chetwynde) was the Chairman of the Sessions on the occasion, and it was stated, that in his summing up to the Jury, which was what is called summing up against a party, he said there was no distinction to be made between the cases of the prisoners. He would not even acknowledge Flint as an attorney, though the fact was admitted by the counsel for the prosecution. He (Mr. Chetwynde) told the Jury that the case was fully made out against him. The Jury without hesitation, returned a verdict of guilty against the petitioner and others indicted. Evidence was then given to show that the petitioner had taken no share in the 'proceedings; that his going to the . spot was altogether unpremeditated; and that it was occasioned only by hearing that his client Wilks was in custody. Indeed, the Learned Chairman himself admitted the fact. However, it made no distinction in the sentence. He (Mr. Denman) should here observe, that there was only two Alagistranks present on this occasion—the Learned Member (Mr. ChetWynde) and a Rev. Divine. After consulting together for Some short time, sentence was pronounced on the parties : it was, that they should be confined for 3 months to hard labour, which was now known to all to consist of the labour of the tread mill. The Hon. Member then observed, that even if the con viction was founded on the foulest and clearest evidence, the crime did not subject the party to hard labour in the tread-mill. The pe titioner was sent to prison, and there put on the mill, though at the time his health was in that state which rendered him wholly unfit for such labour. He remonstrated, and it was only by the advice of the surgeon that he was released from this severe labour—a fact which in itself reflected not much credit on the attention of the visiting magistrates. The petitioner also stated, that he sent a memorial to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, complaining of his treatment, and praying for redress. This, lie added, was delayed by the gaoler, by whom it was handed to Mr. Chetwynde before it was sent off, and it did not reach its destination till the end of De cember, two months after the petitioner was committed to pri son. He (Mr. Denman) was rather surprised that when the memorial did reach the Secretary of State, it did not produce a strict inquiry into the transaction, which would have ended in an order for his release. The petitioner remained until the expiration of his three months, wearing during that time the same prison dress with the common malefactors confined there. The Honourable Member proceeded to state, that a 'meeting of the magistrates of the county was held in into the after, and they cam e to a resolution not to inquire the parti. • culars of the petitioner's case—not to take any steps for mitigation of his punishment, but to do what the House-of Commons had done about a week back, when a Noble Friend of his submitted a motion on the conduct of Mini.: stets, which was met by an amendment pronouncing an etrlo gium on than conduct' which the motion went to impugn ; in the same manner the magistrates pronounced a pare. gyric on the conduct of the Hon. Member (Mr. Chetwynde) on the occasion alluded to. Perhaps it might be said, that a pro. ceeding upon this subject was already pending in the Court of King's Bench, and that he (Mr. Denman) should hive deferre presenting Mr. Flint's petition until the event of that criminal information was ascertained. But it would be found that, front the delay used in moving for the criminal information, no trial could take place upon the subject before the summer assize; so that the petitioner had his choice only to come now, or te wait until the next Session of Parliament. The petition con cluded with the usual praYer for relief, and with a recommen dation that powers so despotic as those which had been exer cised upon the petitioner should no longer be intrusted - to the command of Magistrates. But there was one previous part or it which imputed certain motives to the Hon. Member for Staf ford in what he had done, which, as they appeared in the peti tion, it was right should be stated to the House. Mr. Flint did ascribe the severity with which he had been treated to a differ ence which existed between the Hon. Member for Stafford and his (Mr. Flint's) brother; and it farther appeared that his bro.: titer, Mr. Abraham Flint, having been . convicted some time - hack of.,a trifling assault upon a woman, had been sentence by the very Hon. Member against whom the petition now com plained, to six months' imprisonment, and to a fine of 100 i .; which sentence had subsequently been remitted at the recom mendation of the Right Hen. Gentleman opposite (Mr. Peel), The Hon. and Learned Gentleman, after further stating that he believed the Hon. Member for Stafford had himself interfered to get Abraham Flint's sentence commuted, sat down by mov ing that the petition should be brought up. Mr. HOLME SUMNER opposed the bringing up of the Petition, and declared that no gentleman could a ct as a magi strate if he was to be subjected illegally to calumny and attack. He doubted not that the Honourable Member for Stafford could give the fullest answer to every charge that the Petition. contained ; but the proper mode of proceeding, if any pro ceeding were necessary, was in the Court of King's Bench ; and be certainly would divide the House before he saw the Pe. , tition brought up. Mr. CHET WYNDE offered his prayer to the House that the Petition might be brought up, anti every assertion in it in vestigated. He should feel himself unworthy to sit in Parlia.. ment, or ever again to act as a Magistrate, if he consented to its rejection on any point or form. If he did not, to the very letter, refute every charge that it contained, he would be con= tent that the House should dismiss him from its walls, and that the Lord Chancellor should strike his name out of the commission. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL had no doubt that the Hon. and Learned Member for Stafford was well prepared to answer all the statements of Mr. Flint in his Petition.; but the question was, whether the House would allow.him to answer those statements; and he (the Attorney-Gene ra l) hoped that it wo u ld no t. At the same time, however, that he thought the I lonourable Member for Stafford ought to be pre cluded from noticing the petition presented, there were some declarations in it, and imputations, so transparently at variance with truth, that he could not himself consent to pass over them in silence. With respect to Mr. Abraham Flint, against whoin the Hon. Member for Staffbrd was supposed to entertain a pre judice, it was to the interference of that Hon. Member (first, with Lord Sidmouth, who thought that there was no ground for the exercise of mercy, and next with the present Right Hon. Secretrary, who had been of a different opinion) that Mr. Flint owed the mitigation of a sentence which had been passed upon him under the verdict of a jury. —(Hear, hear !)—Upon Mr. Abraham Flint's ill-treatment, therefore he would say no more. Now, then, what was the case, and what were the charges of the Petitioner ? A certain individual having committed . a breach of the peace, and being in the custody of a constable, Mr. Flint had been one of the mob of 500, who endeavoured to rescue him. The petition suggested, that when he had been brought first before a Magistrate for this offence, that Magis trate had refused to bind him over to the sessions. That state ment was in the petition, although the Hon. and. Learned Mem ber for Nottingham had not Mentioned it ; and, like many, other statements in the petition, it was untrue. Another sug gestion in the petition, that the petitioner had not originally been meant to be indicted, but had subsequently been prose cuted at the instance of the 1-lon. Member for Stafford—this suggestion was contradicted upon oath, by the Hon. Member for Stafford, in the Court of King's Bench, and also by the Agent who had managed the prosecution on the part of Sir George Jerningham. If he (the Attorney General) opposed the bringing up of the petition, it was because it contained statements false and calumnious.--(Hear!)—flow could the Hon. Member for Stafford act but as he had done ? He waschaire man of the sessions. The case was tried before a jury. In sum ming up, he repeated every point of evidence to the jury ; and in his law, as he laid it down, all the Magistrates on the Benzb made affidavits that they agreed.—(Hear, hear!)—Then, a sen tence was to be pronounced. In that matter the Bench had not relied alone upon itself. Magistrates in attendance—(this fact was proved by Sir Oswald Mosley)—Magistrates of the highest respectability, who were in attendance, had been consulted,.atid the sentence pronounced had been the result of their united opinion. —(Hear, hear !)—With respect to the sentence, then, if the Hon. Member for Stafford had been wrong, how were the rest of the Magistrates situated ? With respect to the puniili ment, it would not have been possible to sentence the persons indicted with Mr. Flint to hard labour, without including bins in the same degree of penalty.—(Cheers.)—One word, however, upon the mode in which the punishment of " hard labour" had been inflicted. The Hon. Member for Nottingham had talked of theitread-mill, and had spoken of hard labour for three months. Now, in the whole three months the petitioner had worked in the tread-mill five hours.—(Hear!) Mr. DENMAN.—Did the Hon. and Learned Gentleman mean five hours only in all ? The ATTORNEY-GENERAL meant no more.—(Hear, hear !)—After that, on a representation, he had been enlployed in carding wool and spinning it,—(" Hear," and laughter)... and after that, upon a second representation, he had been allow ed to do nothing. The story of his having been shut up for 40 days—of his having been fed on bread and water, &c.—of these matters and others in the petition, the Attorney-General would say nothing, because the Hon. Member for Nottingham hid not touched upon thnin. The whole statements of the petition had been contradicted upon oath in the Court of King's Bench,, by the affidavit's of Mr. Clare, the agent of Sir George Jerning- . ham, the surgeon of the prison, the task-master of the prison, and the Hon. Member for Stafford himself.—(Hear, hear 1) The delay of which the Hon. Member for Nottingham had spoken in the King's Bench proceedings arose out of the appli; cation of the defendants for time to answer the affidavits filed against them ; but the petitioner probably found it most con venient to make his statements in the shape of a petition, where, if they happened not to be true, they carried no legal conse quences along with them.—(Cheers.) Mr. WETHERELL opposed the bringing up of the peti tion, considering that a petition was not the course by which the party, if aggrieved, should have proceeded. Mr. PEEL, who considered himself in some measure as similarly situated with the Honourable Member for Stafford, would not detain the House more than a very few moments upon the question. The remission of sentence which he had thought himself entitled to make in the case of Abraham Flint, had proceeded (it was the second application) upon the inter ference of the Hon. Member for Stafford. The ground of that Hon. Member's application had been, that a witness who had given evidence upon the trial of Mr. Abraham Flint, had had his credibility shaken upon a subsequent occasion ; and the letter of the Ilon. Member had concluded in these terms— " 1 feel fully justified, under such circumstances, in imploring the Royal clemency for this unfortunate person ; and as he is now suffering from confinement, and his family are in distress, I beg leave to solicit your earliest attention to his case."— (Hear, hear !) This was the person against whom the Hon. Member for Stafibrd was said to be prejudiced—within a week, a warrant had been issued for his liberation.—(Hear !)—NOw to the case of the petitioner : and first, to the charge, against himself, of delay. The petitioner had been convicted in Octo ber last, it was said --it was not until December th a t h e (f r . Peel) had ever heard of his trial.—(Hear!) Mr. DENMAN said, that he had not been aware when the case had reached the Hon. Secretary. Mr. PEEL.—Then why did the Hon. and Learned Gentle man come forward, without knowing, to make the charge ? Mr. DENMAN had stated the complaint, as he found it in the petition. Mr. PEEL proceeded to state, that he had first received the. petitioner's memorial on the 6th of December. He had ap plied for information to the Hon. Member for Stafford, as the PRICE SlvErrptxct4 R ICHARDSON, GOODLUCK, and CO. respectfully acquaint the Public that the SECOND DAY o f DRAWING the STATE LOTTERY, will be the 17th of NEXT MONTH.
