Tire CHANCELLOR .of the EXCHEQUER moved the third reading of the Chapel Exemption Bill. . Sir W. SCOTT opposed the measure strongly. He saw no ground 'f - or it either. in popular appli cation, or in real expediency. His Right Hon. Friend had "observed an entire silence as to the new occasions, or new religious principles, that required such an innovation : he coaceived that no argument had I:cen adduced to justify his Right Hon. - Friend in sallying forth as a diplomatic agent to negociate a peace between discordant re ligious sects, or to exempt them front the bur thens incident to property in general. He there fore moved that the Bill be read a third time this day three months. The CHANCELLOR of the .EXCHECLUER defended the Bill, and was happy to see the objections to 'it reduced into a substantial form. The present measure, whilst it threw no new burthen on eccle siastical dues, established no interference with the British system of religious toleration. Mr. BANKEs was astonished at 'the rashness of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in so uselessly attempting to alter; the established law, for the sake of removing a trivial grievance. Mr. BuTTERwoRTH supported the. Bill as of-the greatest importance, and as onlyrelievin g persons who paid tithes and other parochial taxes from suffering- an additional burthen, in resorting to chapels of ease or other places of worship. Sir W. SCOTT explained. 'Sir J. Nicol, was of opinion, that the present Bill had arisen in a misapprehension Of the ex isting law. In successive decisions in the Court of King's Beneh the law hail been held to he, that places of worship applied to no profitable use, and places appropriated to the education of the poor, were nut rattalble, but became so, if ernployq4 prodltetie propertv: presert Bill wept o e:Xenipt place.pf, religjou§ woro';i), When jyroductiye p6rpose., flaunt he payineitt or •rates ; and tbe.necessit of such measure ought Id be ticarly Proveti before the• House g . ave its assent ' . . • - .11:1r 7 IVFTHErtent. said, that if an e%effiption we !ir;nted front poOr fates, it ought to extend burthens, Mt the exeniption fact, • Icc - the:benefit of carpenters, +lumbers, aqd ernploired 11l those '111; Bill tlid not prrnnote toleration, and.he telt it hi::: duty to oppose it, _ . . surprited at the opposition" the Bill had-enconntered iu its ia%t-stage. former occa:don a gallant General oppo§ite, (Thornton) , had been left to fight the ,hattle pro pris niarte.

It was a measure, of per- 7 se - cation to the ?Atli-chin favour Ot ali Dissei,ters ; but the great reason why he shOuld vote against, the Bill was, that it left the Church Of, England assessed to all Parish Rates, while it exempted from those rates Dissenting Chapels and Meeting= houses.

Lord GASTI.EREA6II stated the c ou r se - proposed to be perfectly consistent with the established Parliamentary prac tice. - The. SPEAKER said, the course to he taken •on such an oc casion depended entirely on the circumstances of the. case. After a few further observation. from Sir J. Newport and Mr. Bathurst, the former said be 'would offer no further re sistence to the motion, which waslhim agreed to.

PARNELL brciaght in the Vaccintition Bill,' which was read tfirst, and ordered to be read a 3cconii time on Mon , . . day next. IRISH BUDGET. yhe House_having resolved itself into a Corti mitte.e of Ways and Means, Mr. VESSY FITZGERALD (the Chancellor of the Irish Exchequer), rose and spoke to the following effect :—" It is to-night, Sir, - myduty to submit to this Committee the amount of the Supply; which Ireland is required to provide for the ser vice of this year, and thelVays and Means by which I propose to make the f;'roviSion whioh is necessary.; and I cannot lament; that on more than one occasion in this House, and in another place, where an inquiry into the state of the fi nances of Ireland was gone. into, the attention of Gentlemen has been turned to the Revenue'of that country and the state'of its resources ; since so much of . 'what else it would baye•been toy duty to oiler to the consideration of the Committee has been anticipated by .those - discussions. In the statement which I have to bring before you, it will be s e e n that however the pressure of the present moment may be felt by-England—how rver rest and unAampled the demands on her may be, as represented by my Right Hon. Friend (the Chancelhw of the Eixelfequer of England)•, an' a former evening, I have, standing here on the part of Ireland, a duty comparatiVely more arduous to discharge. Ireland IRIS heen called upon in the last two SesSions of Parliament, to iarg c furnish r than have ever been made before. Taxes have been laid on to an extent which that coun try, 1 fear, was little prepared to expect ; and we have now to provide still greater supplies, and by imposts exceeding those of the preceding year, :Treat as - were the exigencies of those times. How the presenrchargehad been aggravated, my Right Hon. Friend (Mr. Vansittart), has sufficiently, cx-• . planted. The 'liquidation of the arrears of the late war, has indeed swelled that charge very con siderably beyond the expenditure of and' single year. it remains for me, however, to perforin r ny duty. I trust that Ireland will not be found unequal to difficiilties of her situation, and if in the extent and magnitude of her contribution to the general expenditure Of tae Empire, the sa crifices she has been called upon to Make. are great ; it most he remembered that there are heavy burthens which have hitherto not been imposed on her, though every other part of the Unii`.ed Kingdom cheerfully endures them. Let us not forget, too, that great as the sacrifices may be for which we are called On now, or which may be required hereafter, they are the price that 'lre laud pays for her peace and for her strength, for . her security and for het glory.—(Hear, hear V— ille Right Hon. Gent:entail proceeded to state, - that he should submit to the Committee as dis tinctly as he could the amount of the Supplies, and the Ways and Means which he proposed to meet it, as well as the provision for the interest of that Loan, which, conjointly with the British L o an, had been contracted for in this colnitry, and of which the terms had already received all the sanction which, up to ,this time, they could have received. He should fist stare the estimated quota of contribution of the year 1815, at 10,574,2151. The interest and sinking fund on the present debt, 6,098 - ,.1491. making, the total supplies 16,672,3641.

The Charge for Interest and Sinking Fund combined was at the rate of 71. 9s. 2d. per cent for money, being (s total n annual n chaige of 727,3501.

The annual Charge cre:- ated he had stated at 727,3501. He had now to derail to the Committee the duties and taxes which Would, lie hoped, be more than sufficient to cover the sum required; and it . Was satisfaeto.ry to think, that; in the measures Which Parliament had al.;- ready annroi•ed, and in those'-which were in pro gress through the House, a goat deal had already .been or wOuld be p:-ovided. He should Jake short review bf, those measuree Of taxation which the House had already aceeded to, and state; - as fairly as he could; the estiMate produced of each. -He should he happy, in case he did not convey him self distinctly, to offer every t x T l anat i on in his power to any Gentleman who might do hint the - honour to attend to him ; and it was some faction to him to reflect, that in recapitulating to the House the measures which' he had - in this Ses sion proposed, he had not to refer to one which bad eithiT Within or without door's ni n ,..t with all. opinisition. It was some consolation that in the disc4targe of such a duty his- country had, l ived him the credit of doing his b es t. One extensive branch of the internal dutiein Ireland had beech thiS year augmented considerably; he meant the AsseSsed 'faxes-; a great increase had taken place in time y/itr 1813 ; on an average 25 per Ceithittl on-the assessment at that li me , and the produce had been more than equivalent to the estimate then made. Parliament had already, in the pre sent Session, given its sanction to an Act by which_ all our ex;sting Assessed Taxes w.ere equalized with those of Great Britain. lie mentioned our existitit taxes, as it would be borne in mind that We had :Ott in Ireland the inhabited house duty, as in this part of the (jolted Kingdom. Gentle , . Men might observe in the financial accounts the produce of a honse duty ; it was, however, a dd.- ferent impost; affecting houses of a class inferior to aboSe which were assessed to the window anti hearth tax, ilnd the apparent dinlinution of its pro duce in the last year, was owing to an exemp tiTin which he had recommended to Parliaineut in favour of 'persons who paid a less tent than. 101. per ann. on whom the duty had heavily and unequally pressed. That thoe however who Were riot locally acquainted with Ireland, might not go n'Ata y with a wrong impression, he took leave to state_that we-had in Ireland the Hearth-money Tax, to.‘rhicJi this part of the Empire was not: subjected.., This was a part of.the ancient•here ditary revenue of the Crown i n I re l an d. I n the year 1812 the Assessed Taxes had yielded three hantired and tirii•ty-four thansand-pounds ; in the last year the produce was . 539,00 W. ; and front 'the equalizatioir which he 'had sr-ated, he expect ed an increased produce of ISO,OOOI. The next branch of Revenue to which he would advert - , was that of Stamps. lie had introduced into that House Bills both of duty and of regulation, and he confessed that he looked with sanguine anti cipation to the, result of 'both. One measure he thought it right to remind the Committee would alter the apparent statement,ol the Stamp Re venue: Ile alluded to-tbe trasfer which had,heett made in the present Session of all Excise Licences which had been •issued under the Stamp Depart ment, and were now placed _under the exclusive marmgetnent of the Commissioners of Excise. The great object of that -arrangement was not only to confine the responsibility to one Depart ment, but to trust the collectio•i of those. Duties (he alluded to licences) to the Excise, in whose of the controul could be more effectually vested, the apparent result would be a diininutioa of the. Stamp Receipts, and an increase in the same proportion (he hoped indeed in a greater proportion) of the , Exeise to - which they were transferre . d: The Comtnittee were aware, that . , under some heads the existing, rate of our Stain!)
