I, ; l! i l l 4 1 if !i f V I P 11 Treaty proposed :itt Chainlow, 'upon - wllith the Allies -were then willing to conclude' peace with France? It the Noble Lord should n•ot:be dispos ed to -accede to this. Communication, it ..tvonld be for the House to decide ,Wjiet her it would, not he communication, which expedient to deman suich 1e (Mr. W.) thought lighly 'material to the due consideration of the subject' referred.to in the Re gent's M'essage. Loril CASTLEREAGII said, that as to the first observation of the Hon. Gentleman, he did oot present his Royal Highness's Message till half past tour o'clock, which, . front his previous hid . mation, he could not deem as too early an hour for the introduction of such a subject. Then, as to.the day fixed for the consideration of.the Ales saee, be was marer surprised at the Hon: Gen tleman's observation, because it would be recol lected that, on a former day, he distinctly stated his purpose-of proposing such an arrangeu':-nt in describing the course of business for the- week, nod with a view to this arrangement,: lie moved the postponement of the American question from this day to Tuesday, in order, as the Message was meant to, be considered on Friday, the House might not he occupied by debate on two succes sive days. But -independently of this considers, • tion, it would be quite inconsistent with ,the nstral practice of Parliament to postpone the consideration of a Message front the throne an early consideration-was indeed chitin deference to the throne, and was therefore never delayed. With respect to the Honourable Gentleman's questions, first, No secret article, understanding, or engagement of the nature alluded to by the noerable Gentleman had ever existed between the Allies ; and as to the second question, he appre hended that the House would not be disposed to delay the consideration of the Prince Regent's ;11ff. , -igt-, or to postpone the expression of its opi nion upon the present exigency, until all the pa pers connected with the Negociations ai Chatil ' lon should he laid on the table, end until the Honourable Gentleman should have an opportu.. slity of considering these papers. Upon these grounds, he trusted the House would not Nei it necessary to revise its decision for taking the Mes sage into consideration to-morrow. . Mr.Wurr.3 asap expressed himself peculiarly glad to hear that no such secret article or understand ing existed, as that to which he referred. But as to the Treaty proposed at Chatillon, he thought it material that tog House should have some intor , Upon that subject, before it entered into the eonsiderat ion of the Regent's Message. It was a mistake to suppose that - be required the pique tion of all the Papers connected with the Negocia tions at Chatillon, A shOrt extract would be quite sufficient, describing the terms !open which the Allies were .at that time willing to conclude peaCe with France, and without such a communi cation he could not think the Hot:Se prepared to discuss the subject of the Message. The delay of a single day with a view to obtain and to consi der such an hnportant feel, he could not suppose in any degree disrespectful to the Message of his Royal Highness, or inconsistent with the defe rence which that House owed tp a'commnnica ...... tone-eu, been led to expect,; from the intimation -of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that- the Message would hate been 'brought (town on Wednesday, and thus ore intervening day would have been-al lowed for its consideration, before the House would be called upon to decide; but the Noble Lord, from his - s'eperior knowhelge of tactics, thought proper to postpone the presentation Of the Message until this day, thus precluding' the possibility of due consideration. 'flue Honour able Gentleman disclaitned any intention of dis respect for his Royal Highness the Regent in thus pressing for some delay, ; adding, that 'although he had no hOpe of tiers'uadiug the 1 louse to change the order upon this subject for Monthly, lie had little - doubt that, trout 'the length to which such debates tsnally extended, it would become neces sary for convenicuc'e to adjourn the discusSion from to-morrow to Alondity. Lord .CASiLEREAGII said, th a t w h en t h e !louse came to the diScussion he would give such expla nation respecting the propositions at Chatillnu as was proper, or as had any connection with the subject of the Regent's Message. With respect to the.presentatioteof this Message, it was to be. considered that the Lords chid not meet until Wed nesday, and that some previous intimation was due to that House, us to the intention to make a commonicetion of this nature, (which was, usually presented to both Houses at the same time. Now as to questions generally, he felt it necessary to observe, that it would be if Gentlemen pro posing to put any questions, would either pre— viously apprise Iklinisters of their intention, or else that .those Gentlemen should. wait until the Ministers were in their, places PARLIAMENTARY PAPERS. FOREIGN WINE. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that in consequence of - a communication which he had had from this Portugueze AMbassador, respecting a representation to his Court, calculated to obviate the necessity of this measure, he should press it no farther. Therefore the Right Hon. Gentleman moved the third reading of it this day six months. Agreed to, and of course the Rill is lust. Sir J. NEWPORT gave notice of a motion for this d a y sennight, to abolish certain 'Law Offices in Ireland, the busi ness of which is executed by deputy. • Mr. WIIITEREAD.—What then were we to do, when the Noble Lord was at Vienna ? Mr. PomoNsy began by declaring, that he was not at all aware that the Regent's Message would have been presented so early, or he should have been in attendance. :13ut he hoped that the House would., upon the subject of that iNfessage, allow him to trespass •on its indulgence for a few:mo ments, although there was no motion under con sideration. The Message, he observed, was corn_ posed of two parts :—First, his Royal Highness told the House that he was preparing to -augment our force by sea and laird, in consequence of the i•ecent e - vents in" France ; and, .secondly, his :Royal Highness stated, that he would act in con cert with our Allies. in thuS proceeding, his R o y a l Hightness.had, in his (Mr. P.'s) opinion, bri!n advised to do that which 'was wise and proper, for it was wise in his R o y a l Hi g h ne S s to have the country in a state of adequate preparation for any emergency, and also to preserve an intimate corn- ABSTRACT OF IMPOitTANT PARLIAMENTARY bmication and concert with - his Allies.

Mr. PONSONBY expressed a wish that some understanding should be established as to the time at which public business should commence. The SPEAKER said, that such business had usually com menced at - half-past four, although when there was much pri vate business before the House it was occasionally postponed till five. Within this Session, however, there had been a want of private' business, if he might so dcsci ibe it., and hence public business was sooner entered upon. Sir J. NEWPORT observed, that this day the Regent's INlessagc bad been presented before half-past four. The SPEAKER observe 1, that with leave of the House, he should hereafter intimate to any Meroberbringin g forward public business before half-past four, that, this was the period Settled for its commencement.

Front the full decla- • ration of his opinion, when adequately informed, he should never he found to shrink, but he would never declare pternature opinions, or engage in premature discussions. Therefore, he 'would ab• . stain from such opinions and discussions in this instance. He would be glad to vote for the Ad dress of to-morrow, and he hoped that. but a short. discussion svcruld take place upon it. In his judgment, it was deeidesdly wise to consider and provide against any new difflculties or dangers likely to arise out of the present state and pros pects of France; and therefore he higlily approved of the preparation which the Regent's Message announced; but as to the use which Goyernment might ultimately make of that preparation he should not hold himself bound to support it by any vote which he was at -present disposed to give. He therefore wished the Address of _to morrow might be so, drawn lip as to meet his views. The Right Honourable Gentleman con cloded with expressing his anxious hope that it inighc not be found inconsistent with the safety of Europe to preserve_ a state of peace, and to • aeons the calamities of war. Lord CASTL Et:2A GII said, that without antiei patint; the discussion of to-morrow, he could as_ sore the Right Honourable Gentleman that it as not proposed bv the Address in contemplation to . pledge his opinion, or that of t h e House, as to the future conduct of his Majesty's Government. With respect t') that conduct,' or the use that might he matte of the force iii preparation,: an d whether the ultimate end should be war or peace, • must depend u p on t h e i ssue. of circumstance s to be determined on their own merits. PtlNlsi-IMENT OF THE PILLORY. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR vice, pursuant to -.dice, to introdu ce his Motion for th e Ab o liti on o f t h e punishment of the Pillety. He would not detain the House with entering into the general grounds on which punishment for offences was established, as - the Author who had written so largely on that sulijecttriut he in the - hands of evei y Gentleman. He was at a loss, however, under what head of punishment to rank that of the pillory: with regard to many it entirely deadened the sense of shame, and to hardened offenders it could not be called an object of terror. Neither could it be an object of good for the spectator. It assembled 2.,tuthultious rabble,!who frequently outraged the person, or endangered the life of individuals. His principal ob jection, was the uncertainty of thi3ponisliment. Courts of,lns tice should always apportion punishment to offences ; " and it should be neither more nor leas than their sentence ; hoe it the pillory were tried by this rule, the absurdity of that punishment would ho eviant to all. In the year 1';',".0, Dr. Shebbeare, who had been convicted of alibel, came. upon the pillory in full dress, attended by his servant in livery, who held an umbrella over him.' The libel was cont a i ne d in six letters, addressed to the. people of Eu g l au d,' an d t h e U n d er - Sheriff , who thought with the populace on that occasion, did not ask the Doctor to put his head into the pillory, but merely 'to place his ha n d s ilium it. In the case of Dani e l Isaac Eaton, who was convicted of a libel for publishing Paine'; Age - of Reason, and who was sentenced to the punishment of the pillory, the people, so tar from shewing-the least incivility towards - him; expressed the greatest indignation at his baring been put there. • The Hon. Gentleman then stated two or her inetancea. to chew the uncertainty of this punish ment. Soule years ago, four men swore away the life .Of a per son stained Timms, for a rubbery. They were afterwards tried and convicted of a conspiracy; were sentenced to the pil lory, and pilloried in different places. Three of them nar rowly escaped with their lives, the other expired in the pillory. He (Mr. T.) • was astonished that a motian had not then been made to abolish that punishment. There were other in stances, which he would not attention to the Houie, where persons sentenced .to the , pillory had been uearly killed : but it would be better; if Such crimes deserved death, that the law should make them capital. A few years ago, two. men acre pillirried at Brentford, for compound ing a - yid tam information, and the mob, who aft never very tender towards informers, nearly killed them. In Scot land, persons may be sentenced to the pillory without a jury ; and a person who was recently sentenced to that punishment was afterwards delivered from it by au order of the Court of SeSsion. Punishment ought not to exist without a legal sen tence. To a man in the higher rank of life, the pun ishmeAt • of the pillory was worse than death itself; to the hardened Individual, it was no great object of terror, and his family would not sutler in proportion to those of superior considera tion. The Hon.-Gentleman then quoted the words of Dr. Dodd, who was sentenced to death for the crime of forgery. Previous to sentence being passed, he addressed the Court, stating his former life, and his services in the cause of gion ; and after having ineetioned that several had been rescued from vice by his exertions, he added th ese wor d s " Condesc e nd, my L or d s, to think that if these considera tions aggravate my feelings, how much they Must embitter my punishment." . The Honourable Gcntioman coneltufed with saying, that it was grating to his feeiings to leave such a punishrhent as that of the pillory in.the hands of a Court, who might treat the admirable author of Jdnins, if he were discovered, in the same manner as the most atrocious cri minal. The punishment of the pillory was the remnant of a barbarous age, and thecrnel , instrument of Star Chamber authority. _ He then moved and obtained leave to bring in a Bill to abolish the punishment of the pillory. Fully authorised . to such an act, by the unanimous adhe rence of their respective Courts to the principles announced in the said separate article of the Treaty of Paris, they in consequence declare, in the face of Europe, that, looking upon the universal abolition of the Slave Trade as a measure particularly worthy of their attention, conformable to the spirit of the age, and to the general principles of these august Sovereigns, they are animated with a sincere desire to con cur, by every means in their Lower, in the most prompt amd effectual execution of this measure ; and to act in the -em ployment' of those means with all the vv.al and - all tho perse verance which so great and good a cause merits. Too well informed of the sentiments of their Sovereigns not to foresee, that, however honourable mav be their object, they would not pursue it without a 'just' regard to the interests, the habits, and even the prejudices of their sulects ; the said Plenipotentiaries at the same time acknowledge, that this ge neral declaration should nut prejudf s e itte . period 'which each particular Power shuttle look upon as the expedient for the definitive abolition of the traffic in slaves.
