Mr. NICHOLL, and other members from the commons, brought up the Bute Ship Cant, Bill. CORN LAWS. The Duke of GORDON presented s;, , veral petitionc from different parishes in the county of Elgin, against any alteration in the corn laws. DISSENTERS. The Earl of MORLEY presented a petition from the dissenters of P;ymouth, complaining of the grievances ' under which thy laboured, and praying for relief. The LORD CHANCELLOR presented a petition most numerously signed from the Dissenters of the city of Edinburgh and town of Leith, complaining of the grievances under which they laboured, and praying the house to devote the property and revenues of the church, to national uses, having at the same time due regard to the claims of the present incumbents. He (vie Lord Chancellor) felt greatly honoured in the confidence reposed in him by the person, signing the petition, but he considered be should ill repay that confidence if he did not frankly itate that although be agreed with a considerable part of the statements in the petition. yet there were some parts in it to which he could not subscribe, such parts more particularly were those which set forth the very crest m sci ief resulting from the church establishment in England and Seotlaod, and in the statement that it was upheld at a very extravagant experts for the benefit chiefly of the wealthy elegies, while it added to the burthens of the people, and comprehended among its number mere min atity, which was daily decreasing. The state ment, so far from being correct in particular, seas notoriously inconsistent with the fact.—(Hear ) Having stated thus mach, which was the foundation of tht prayer, he !regard to state that be also differed with that part of the prayer which called on Parliameot to take measures to abolish the connection between church and state. There was no doubt whatever that any part of the com munity, if they thought fit to maintain an establishment on their own principles, it was perfectly competent for them to do so. There was no illegality or impro pt iety in presenting their opinions to Parliament on the subject, if the petitions were couched in re specqul language, but he (the noble lord) trusted that be was not guilty of any deteiction of his duty in pre tP nting the petition, when he stated respectfully those parts of the petition upon which he could not agree. In one important part of the petition, and of the prayer be en irrly concurred. They stated that the Dim s -raters of England were subjected fry a defect of law in the establishment of the church of England to a variety Oi disabilities and grievances still more serious that those which the petitioners had a right to compla•n, because they pleased upon a numerous, enlightened, and powerful body of men, who had done eminent service to the cau-e of religion and morality.—( Hear.) He entirely concurred in the expression of praise which was here bestowed on the great body of Dissenters and he entirely concurred in that part of the p'etition which prayed the legislature to take sue!, steps as might he deemed necessary for putting an end ,to all di , tinc• titans in respi ct of civil and constitutional privileges fiunded on religious principles. Having stated thus much he had only to add, as regarded that part of the petition which related to the revenues of the church, lie thought the measure which was now in the contemplation of bis Ma jesty's government, would render unnecessary any further stop being taken on that branch of the question. As regarded tithes he also entertained a strong conviction that those measures which were proposed, and which were about to be immediately brought before Parliament, with the entire concurrence of his Majesty's confidential servants upon this subject, and which would have been brought before the other house of parliament two days ago, but for the indisposition of his noble friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer, would be perfectly satis factory to the people of England.—( Hear, hear.) The Marquis of LANSDOWNE presented a petition from the dissenters of Salisbury complaining of grievances and praying for relief. The noble marquis also gave notice th.t on the 14th of April he would move the re appointment of the library committee. The LORD CHANCELLOR said he bad a bill to pre sent to their 'lordships, which went to put the criminal law of the great metropolitan county on a better footing than it stood at present. The county of Mid dlesex was not like any other, so far as its crimi nal jurisprudence went, for there were eight ses sions in the year ; while, as their hardships were aware, in other counties there were goal deliveries only twice. After showing the absurdity of the present system, by which a person committing an offence only a foot on one side of a line on Locdon Bridge was tried almost immediately, while if he was one foot on the other side, he might be kept in gaol for six months, and taken for trial to Guildford or Kingston, be went on to say that be proposed by the present bid to extend the jurisdiction of the Old Bailey, where some of the judges always sat, down to Woolwich, Greenwich, and Deptford on the one hand, while be took in Lambeth, Southwark and other parishes on the other.—(Hear, hear.) He also proposed that there should be twelve sessions in every year, in place of eight as at present. He should propose that the jurisdiction should be ex tended to misdemeanors and offences tie punislimeot of which did not exceed 7 years transportation. He was quite aware that this was imposing an additienal labour on the Judges of the land. It was however to be considered, that during the periods of 1828 and 1829 the number of judges were only twelve ; since that period, however, their numbers ned been increased one fouth. The principal motive fur that increase being to do away with the Weld Judges. A winter circuit bad been established some eight or ten years ago, which had given great discontent; that, however, had been neces sary, in consequence of the great increase of business in London and its neighbourhood, but it those dis tricts in which that increase of business were withdraa in, the necessity for those circuits would be tone away with. The arrangement he proposed would not give the judges an atom more business than they at present had, certainly not more than they had when there were only 12. It was evident that some such change as he had adverted to ought to take place, especially considering the great increase of the populatiori., (LEST SPEAKING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the chair at ten minutes past five o'clock. Mr. PRESTON brought up certain papers from the East India House. Mr. HUGHES HUGHES presented a petition, under ihe commo n seal of the company of proprietors of the Lambeth water works, complaining of the South London water works, praying that the hill might not pass during the present session, and that they might be heard against certain clauses in it. The house was summoned-'to attend the Lords, to hear the royal assent gi ven to various hills.—(See Lords.) Mr. J. SMITH presented petitions from Diss, Aylesbury, Stony Stratford, North Crawley, Buckingliain, and various other pars in Buckinghamshire, complaining of grievanc,P, and praying for redress. They were oppresseu in four or five different ways. They complained that they had not r. mode of 11,gistry of births, deaths, and mar riages; that they were not permitted to send their ehirlren to the Universities, and of what they c ;Fed the alliance of the church and state. He bad no difficulty in saying in his place in that house that the church had been iniured by its alliance with the state; but he could not support any measure that would have for its effect a dis. severance of that alliance in existing circumstanees. Paidie opinio64 all powerful, would, doubtless, before many year , passel away,'remedy the grievance. The HON. MEMBER presen'ed another petition from another parish in' the county of Buckingham, relative to the poor laws, and praying that they might he revised, as they effected that part of the country. He fully con • tarred in the 'prayer. Allusion was made in the petition to certain magistrates, of the facts of which he knew nothing, but be believed the magistrate principally hinted at was one of the most honourable and able rnagis • trate& of the county of Buckingham. Mr : • TANCIiED presented a petition from the members of the Royal College of Surgeons in Banbury, camplaining Of the state of the medical law, and praying far an alteea lion tar he made in it. The bon, member presented a petition from the dissenters of Banbury, praying that they might be relieved from their grievances. Mr. WILKS gave notice, that on an early day he should move for leave to bring in whit] relative to friendly societies.. The How.

TIE SOUTHAMPTON AND LONDON RAILWAY.

RICE, in alluding to the time and expen.e of producing such returns, unless it was intended to in troduce some measure upon them, wished to know from thehon. member wh WAN his objection making the motion? Mr. Alderman WOOD said the house was aware that a committee was sitting upon the Sowhampton Railway Bill, and it wss solely in order to obtain information as to the quantity of business done at that port that be wished to have the returns.—( Heir, hear.) He thought that reason was a very strong one.—(Hear.) Mr. S. RICE said that was precisely what he wanted to know. He did not oppose the !notion. The rettirtv, were then ordered. Mr. TULLE presented a petition from the dis senters of Grittistone, praying to be relieved from the grievances under which th y lihoured. POOR LAWS. Sir J.

Mr. O'CONNELL presented a petition from Netvcas• tlt , upon• Tyne, complainining of the designs of Sussia, and praying that the house would take measures to prevent the subitwation of the Turkish provinces by Russia. The LORD ADVOCATE moved for certain returns connected with the Court of Session in Scotland, which were ordered. _ _ Mr. HALCOMB said he bad soap information to convey to the house, which he thought would be important. It would be recollected he asked the hen. and gallant inetmer who was chairman of the Warwickshire election corn tnittee, who drew up the report of that committee, and that the honourable an d ga ll an t meer, in the course meat of his reply, bad told him that lie was as ignorant upon that as he was upon all other subjects.— (Laughter.) Certainly after such an observation he was not disposed to carry on his inquiries in that way, and therefore he went up stairs and searched the records, among which be found a draft of the repo, t, drawn up Italy in the hand-writing of a law stationer.— (Hear, hear.) He then proceeled to a law-stationet's shop, and asked him if he knew any thing of the report of the Warwickshire Election Committee.—(Cries of " Oh, oh, oh.") The law-stationer replied, "Do you mean the report of Mr. Joseph Parkes, the solicitor ?" He answered in the affirmative, although he did not know who Mr. Joseph Parkes was, and on further inquiry he found that four copies were charged to Mr. PAkes, and phi lot by hint. He should say nothing upon it, but merely content himself with stating the fact ; it did, however, show the animas with which the report tvas drawn up, ant, therefore, the great impropriety of trusting any person but a member of th, committee to draw up the repot t, especially an agent of the borough, becaase there was a clause in tf at report reflecting upon the Earl of Warwick, which had been negatived by the COM We. Mr. ROBINSON ruse to order, and wished to know if there was ally motion before the house.—(Hear.) The SPEAKER said certainly there was no motion before the house, although it might indeed be proper foe an hon. member to inquire hlw a report was draw,' up ; a , the same time the house always felt its security in the re poosibility of the committee. , Mr. HALCOMB should be sorry that he had given the Louse any unnecessary trouble ; but 414 be felt it his duty to introduce ;he matter before it, he should not flinch from that duty. The committee was not like . any other e!ection committee, at which members were coin ,ielled to attend day after day.—(FJear, hear.) It was necessary that a report which was drawn up, containing HIGHWAYS BILL. The order of the day for the second reading of the Highways Bill having been read, Mr. 'LE WIS rose and said that he did not ir.tend to oppose the second reading of the bill; but he wiA ed to know whether it was the intend in of the right honourable sccietaty to press that bill during tl:e present session, because, if so, Le hoped that some means would be adopted of drawing the attention of the house to the provisions of that bi'l, which was io many respects objectilnable, and mould mike a total chance in V e laws relating to highways. Mr. S. LENEVRE said that the pr;ncipale had been tried in many parishes in England, and found efficient, be believed ►ho hill would he a great relief to the agricul. taral interest. The bill wan then read a second time. FELONS PROPERTY BILL. Mr. ROTCH said, in moving the second reading of the Felons Property Bill, it would not be necessary fm him to enter in.o an) leng• belied discussion on that Decision, but as Moe; vations had been made on the other side, which were of considerable weight, he felt it his duty to make some answer to these observations. It was observed, and very truly, that by returns presented to that house that the property of felons was as well disposed of by the present system as was necessary.—(Hear, hear, bear.) The returns already before the house 'honed that the money was paid over, resulting from the prop. rties or felons, into the hands of the sheriffs of the counties. The whole sum paid to !hem for the last ten tears was 3,1921. ; out of that 2,533/. came from one in!:ividual ; so that, in the course of eight years, the whole sum accounted for by the she. riffs only amount , d to about 6001., wher e as it must he evident to all who knew aithing show the proceedings at the criminal sessions, that scarcely a day passed, on which there was not some property issed into ome hands or colter, had belonged to felons, and who, therefore, either didnot know what to do with it, or who misapplied it. In the great city of Lin coln for the space of ten years the sheriffs had actually only accounted for 7s. 3ii. In nine years not a farthing had been accounted for in the city of Yo, k. In Wilts and Worcestershire' in 10 years only 5 shillings had been accounted for. Were not these facts sufficient to show the necessity of such a bill as this ; and yet the hon. member on the other side of the house relied on those very returns as a proof of the non necessity for the bill. (LEFT SPEAKING) IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OP COMMONS. ARCH 25. EXCHEQUER OF RECEIPT BILL. Sir J GRAHAM, in moving the further consideration of the report of the Exchequer of Receipt Bill, intended to propose two alterations in the bill. Toe first was in consequence of a suggestion mad.- by the right hon. mem• ber for Harwich (Mr. Hi rries). He (Sir J. Graham) had pr.iposed that the Comptroller should only be remov wile from his office in case of the address of one or both houses of parliament; hut the right hon. gentleman Bug gest, d that in case of such r: /nova! the Comptroller might consider himself entirled to colopens dim'. He (Sir J. Graham) theretOre pro. osed an amendment, that, in such case, the Comptroller shou:d not he entitled to compensa tion, but that the office should be subject to ttlte• ration and under the control of Parliament.—(Hear. hear.) He had also proposed that no person holding the office of Comptroller should he able to hold any office in the appointment of the Crown during pleasure. Th - right hon. gentleman ( Mr. .Herriis) had obj-rred that the clause was not sufficiently comprehensive, as there were persons bolding office during pleasure connected with the Government, and yet not riirecrly appointed by the Cr mu, namely, such as tie Secretary of the Treasury and the Under-Secretary of State. He (Sir J. Graham) had felt the force of the objection, and intended, therefore, to ; .ropose that the clause should he metaled, -o that it would run that no p-rson holding the office of Comptroll. r of the Exchequer should bola ally cffice during the plea sure of the Crown, or any appointment under the Crown. Some objection had been made to Lord Auckland being appointed to the office of Comptroller of the Exchequer, as he held the office of treasurer of Greenwich Hospital. He (Sir .1. Graham) did not con sider that there would be any s citrus objection to the ap pointment of Lord Auckland ; but, to remove all doubt, be would propose a clause to meet the case of Lord Auck land, which stated that that noble lord should las allowed to hold both offic,s. If this arrangement was effected, the noble lord (Auckland) would eive up two pensions he then held, namely, one of 4001. and the other of 3001. a year. He need not say that the arrangement lie pro posed would be of an economical nature. In conclusion he would only add, that from the manner in which Lord Auckland bad performed the ditties of the office over which he presided, and from his experience and habits of business, he was more competent to fill the office of Comp tri ller of the Exchequer than any other person whom he (Sir J. Graham) knew. The right lion. baronet then proposed amendments to the above effect. Lord J. RUSSELL observed that Lord Auckland held his office at Greenwich nominally at the weasure of the crown, but really as an indeitentlent office. Ir. was granted to him by Act of Parliament, and, although holding it " doting good behaviour," the government of the Duke of Wellington, to whom be was always opposed, never considered that they had a right to deprive him of it. He thought, therefore, that it ought to be trea;ed as an in dependent office. Co , onel EVANS denied that the office Lord Auckland now hr ld could tie considered as an independent office. It was clearly tetained during the pleasure of me Crown, and no longer; and as the appointment of Comptniller of the Exchequer was one of the greatest importance to the State, the great principle of the bill si.ould not he departed from in this or any wrier instance. Mr. BERRIES entirely agreed that it was incompa tible, according to the principle intended to be estairlished by the right hon. traronel (Sir J. Graham), that the office of Comptroller of the Exciicquer and another office held at the pleasure of the crown should he fill d by one and the satne prison. Although he approved of other parts of the measure he could not give his assent to such a proposition as this. Mr. WARBURTON observed that the proposition which the rig:it bon. baronet had made for tendering the office of Comptroller of the Exchequer independent w re in coot' irmity with a proposition which had lr•en thrown out by his hon. friend (the member for Middlesex). No minating any person to the office who held another situa tion during gond behaviour would be such a violation ut the principle of this proposition that he should certainly resist it. Sir.J.GRAHAM, after what had passed, did not think he should be justified in ptessing for a division on t , e clause relating to the appointment of his noble trieno (Lord Auckland) to this office. Hear, hear.) He should, however, persist in introducing the clause esta blishing the principle which had been- adverted to, a lthough he would not undertake the responsibility ert bringing forty trd the other clause.—( Hear.) The cl ruse relating to the appointment of Lord Auck land was accordingly withdrawn, an I the outer clauses were agreed to. The bill was then ordered to be real a third time to hiorrow (this day) and then engrossed. The Roman Marriag - -.4 Bill passed through a Colonel EVANS held a petition in his hand which he had intended to have presented at the morning sittings of the house. He had come down for that purpose fourteen or fifteen times, but he had found it itupotssible to get an ..pportnnitY.of pre s enting it, in consequence o f t h e di. e C s . "-hm which ball of late taken pace at those sittings. The extent of those discussions had now become such a vrievince, that he hoped some gentleman more eapaVe of meeting the subject than himself would torn his attenti-n to it with a view of discArering a remedy fttr the inenn— venience. The petition was from a society instituted for the purpose of affording re:ief to the Polish refugees. The petitioners stated that they had done all they could in favour of these unfortunate persons; but than their funds were now exhausted, anti they now sought, not the Aetna fiery aid, but the sympa , hy and consideration of t' e house.; In this prayer he (Colonel Evi.ns) joined. The duty of . • Amity was as incumbent upon nations as nn :Ind he thought that this was a proper occasino for the ..xercise of that charity. It was not without precedent in his country that relief should be given to the suf ferers under despotism. In former times the Hitzit note were reli. ved when they fled from France, and in later times .the emigrants from That country received similar relief. He (Colon-I Evans) was wrongly inclined to think that the Poles did make a representation , 1 the wrongs they endured, and of the evils with which they were threatened, to each of the five great powers of Europe, before they rook up arms in their own defence. He, therefore, thought that, under all the cireumstinees of the case. some as , istance mi g ht b e extend,d i the tin- fortunate Polrv, without the mlightekt breach of th4t inter nationd law which every court in Europe must be anxious to observe. H , watt impre.ged with the conviction that both the late and present Governments of this country h deferred a great deal Ina much 'o the Cabinet of St. Petersbureh. The petitioners did not ask the house for any pecuniary grant, but merely lor an expression of its sympa by wi h their misfortunes; and this was a fart which he (Colonel Evans) wished to impress on the nAle I.trd (Lord Palmerston). He thought that, in all the circumstances of the case, Government ought not only to extend sympathy to the refugee Poles, t.ut that it 'light sl%o to grant some pecuniary relief to them. Pecuniary relief had been granted to the Spanish refugees and tl • French emigrants by a former Government, though their claims to such relief were not, in his (Colonel Evans's) apprehension, so strong as were those of the unhappy Poles now residing in this country. Sir HARRY VERNEY supported the petition. He anxiously hoped this countiy would now become alive to the d ttigers to be apprehended to the peace of Etirope from the ambition of Russia, and the alarming extension of her po.r.rer, and would not silently suffer a further extension of that power. The Court of St. Petersburgh was eu deavouring to stifle th, expression of liberal opinions, not only in this country but in every country in Europe. He trusted England would always remain a free and open asylum to which the distressed of every nation under heaven might resort, and the house continue a free and open tribunal to which they might submit their wrongs. The boon prayed for by the petitioners was poor indeed, and woof, prove hut a very inadequate compensation for the losses and sacrifices which they had suffered in the'r country's cause. Many of them were men who had infivtd in the higher circles of society in their native land. and had possessed oil the comforts of life. He (Sir Harry Verney) hoped Government would confer on them Fame pecuniary relief, and that the country would still continue friendly to every suffering nation. He would not trouble the house further than by the expression of a hope that bis Majesty's Government would at once accede to the proposition of the Gallant Colonel, and extend some pe cuniary assistance to the unfortunate petitioners. They had afforded such assistance to the Spanish refugees, and re the French emigrants. There existed much greater reason for relieving the suffering Poles, for their sufferings ,:rose from a flagrant violation of treaties, to which this country was a party on the part of Russia. Mr. SINCLAIR gave the prayer of the petition his most cordial support. The feeling in favour of the Piles was very strong, and bad been very generally expr, see f in Scothmil. In that country considerable sums had been raised to assist the distressed Poles in Great Britain. Lord PALMERNTON >aid that every person of; feel- ing and humane mind must spontaneously respond to the sentiments of sympathy which had that evening been ex • pm sed in favour of the Poles ; but the feelings which himself and colleagues might entertain on the subject as individuals were a matter very different from voting away the public money in their capacity of Ministers of the Crown. He (Lord Palmerston) was not at tilprty to hold out any hope to 'he gallant colonel of gee vernment sanctioning any grant of money to the petitienere. Th e gallameeltmel 1110 referred to the case of the Sp Knish refueees and French emigrants ; and contended, that e cause a former Government had effirded them pecuniary relief, the present Government ought to extend pecuniary assistance to the petitioners. The cases were quire diffe rent. The Spanish refugees who received assistance from this country were men who acted in concert with the armies of Great Britain during the Peniasular war; and it was because of their active co-operation with our troops that they were expelled their own country. With re spect,again, to the French emigrants, they were entithol to essistatice from this country, because it was in ob-dicnre to the advice of England that thy had rebelled Our shores were open to the distressed of all countries, and our twe affir.led protection.to the afflicted of all kinds ; but it wound be uofair to expect, that because such was the case, the un'ortunate of other countries should receive ped cuniary support from the governm nt. The sum which the gallant Colonel wished to be bestowed on the refute Poles might not be great; but it was not the were amount of money, but the precedent which the grant woull establish, that the house ought to take into consideration. —(Hear, hear.) If the principle were once esubli.hed, that petit;oners were entitled to p••cuniary relief, it iv , u d bs found afterwards to be a my difficult matter t‘r draw the line of distinction bc.ween those individuals and °the!. fiteigners, who, at some tuture time. might pre4ent their ;111e 4 eil claims for similar aid. —(Hear.) He (Lord Polmerston) did not see on what principle they combd give assistance to the petitioners, and refuse it to thou.- Poles who might afterwerds come over to this country in m e at numbers, and whose claims to pecuniary relief int!l , t be greater. The ga lent colonel had ground d the claims of es from to go the to grasp war petitbiners to relief on the circumstance of an infrac tion by Russia of the treaty of Vienna, to which trece this country was a party ; and had stated that E ng l an d, in cons equence of such infraction, wo u ld h ave h ad a right to of Russia Ru it ss u i s a sia b' i in s r he of arms. He (Lord Palmerston) a d m i tte d t h at Eng aod t ' - la u v u e ! iaevveedhad the Pi a right bought popper; but goverumPut did not think that, un der ail the circumstances of th e case , it would have b een expedient for Englano to go to war with Nicholas. The mere tact on this ciiuntry tieing a party to the treaty of Vientia was not, he held, as synonymous with our gua• ranteeing that thete would be no infraction of that treaty issia. Ile must tepee' that, while there must be a feeling of sympathy in every heart in favour of the unfor titnat, Pales, goveron-nt could not hold out any hope of oven iing pecuniary relief to them. Mr. O'CONNELL had heard the speech of the noble or i with leeoligs of deep surprise and 'egret. The nibble !cur I had said. that to grant relief to the Poles wool , ' be ogainst precedent. It would not be against ptecedetr, the contrary. The vials of his wrath were, in 80 f r words were concerned, poured out on the head .4 Itus. sin; but, in God's name, why did not our actions cares.
