It is quite needless for me to assure you of the very great pain with which I have thus determined to dissolve a connection of such long standing, which.has been so frequently, and, on your part, so generously renewed, which has done me so much ho nour in public estimation, and which has been so gratifying 'to my own feelings and to those of my Family, But this deter ' mination has not been made without the fullest and most anxious consideration of a concurrence of private and public eirceaistances.• Of the first, I feel that no explanation will be required of me ; • respecting the second, I will honestly confess, that it has often been matter of deep regret to my mind that my repeated absences abroad, the necessity of which is but too, likely to recur, have prevented me from discharging, in ,a man ner satisfactory to myself, all those duties which. I owe to My Constituents, while the mortification to my own feelings, occa sioned by those omissions, has been greatly aggravated' by : the extreme• indulgence which I have uniformlyreceived at your hands. But - I haVe, at leak, the satisfaction of feeling, - that I have' never ceased to act upon those constitutional and indepen ilent-principles which I have always professed; and it only ye mains for me to return you my most cordial thanks. for your long and - great - goodness to' me. My gtatitude can only cease with my existence, and the' greatest favour that fortune could bestow upon nie, will be to afford me an opportunity of proving its Sincerity:. .

On the motion of the Earl of ILIVERPOOL 4 the Committee on the Judges' Salaries Bill was postponed till to-marrow.

The Writs of Error Abolition passed _through a,Com•- mittee, in which an amendment of the clause relative to com pensations _was agreed to on 'the motion of Lord ELLEN BOROUGH. On the motion of Lord SorrsEr.n,-the Apothecaries' Com pensation Bill was read a secotui time. The Customs' Consolidation Bill, the .Irish Linen Bounties Bill, and the Irish Roads anti Bridges. Bill, were committed.— Adjourned. .110 U F; OF COMMONS 117. HUME prcsented'a petition 'from William Spencer Norton, proprietor Of the Free Press, a — weekly newspaper, published at Glasgow,.:comPlaining of the liberty given to others to publish advertjsernents in nnstamped papers, to the detriment Of those which are compelled to pay a starrlp-dut y . The CLIANCELLOII'of the EXCEITQUER said that Go , vernment• were adyised that the persons publishing advertis6- ments in the Manner "alluded to were not exempt from paying duty, and they would take ere to enforce the law. COMBINATION CA Mr. IMBlMUSE'presented a petition from a large body Of mechanics, c ou ipl a i n i ng t h at t h ey were not heard before the Cominittee on the COmbination Laws: 8o- Moderate were the views of the petitioners that they determined hot t o o ffe r an y opposition to th e Bill,' if modified by one or two verbal ahem; tions. They complained that the mode of serving and proVing the - service of summons upon them, placed them in a worse si tuation than that of the midnight felon. He had Tend the Bill, and found that it struck at the root of delegation; which, with respeeCto this class of interests and persohs, was like the safety' . valve of the Constitution. He represented 'the. danger of in ducing the operatives to assemble in larg bodies by means of this law, inste a d of coming . down,by a delegation ot - fiVe or six quiet Reople, presenting a piece of paper 'in the lobby. There Was not any thinglike fair time to gather the opinions of than of persons who were the most interested. Mr. WALLACE said, that it was utterly impossible to hear the multitude of persona'Who offered 'original opinions . on the nature and probable effects of the Bill. The Committee, there fore, proceeded upon a few cases of fact, which were more likely to satisfy the House. The evidence was taken immirtially from both sides, and so far the allegations of the petition.were not true. He would not enter info discussions upon the merits of the Bill, which would come in a more regular- way before the I House. . General GASCOYNE was in favour. of,ank alightalteration which would :sooth the agitated and terrified feelings - of -the ope ratives. ' Mr. HUME deprecated the readiness with tedch the Com mons of England consented to consign the operatives, bound hand. and foot, over to arbitrary and oppressive Crib No class of men had ever been subjected to oppression so .partial as that which would be set up by this Bill over the labouring people. 11013110 USE replied:— If Government determined td: go through with this precipitancy a he would put every obstacle in the way of the Bill consistent with the.forma•ef the,house. Mr. PEEL depended upon returning coolness and good sense of the Hon. Gentlernap . oualify his reatibition just ex pressed." lie was as to n i s h e d at t'hiS new opposition, considering that on the ! second reading no objection was-taken to the prin. ctpleof the rill'.' — The circiimStanees oldie country 'at the time must have been since overlooked. There was itearcery a single trade which was not out in combination. Government had adopted - the mildest possible course ; but as to the hearing of evidence upon every particular case, it would have taken seven years. , And to what purpose? The.facts were the same; the • principle had been admitted ; the parties who offered new infor mation did not deny combination ; they only wished to justify their own combination. Mr. HUME spoke of the danger of allowing Government totally to subvert the rights and lite:l - ties, of the, operatives.— lie had a list of 101 cases in which they had applied to be heard for relief on particular points, and their. prayer had been refused. While, upon representations 'of alarm and danger totally unfounded, since not one case of real violence had oc curred, this Bill so formidable to the liberties of the operatives was to pass, all inquiry was denied to the millions who were chiefly interested. The lion. Gentleman concluded by saying that he would afford all such opposition to the Bill as the forms of the House would permit. . . . Mr. PEEL in explanation said, that the lion. Gentleman's misrepresentations.compelled Itins-. to restate what he.had said before. lie then repeated the substance of his former observa tions. If the Hon. Gentleman's intention to oppose was so strong, he begged to ask hint why he had agreed to the second reading of this Bill ? This Bill was intact founded, not upon his (Mr. Peel's) opinion, but on the Hon. Member's resolutions. No longer ago than Friday last, the lion. Gentleman had ex pressed his perfect acquiescence in, the Bill. A military force had been re s o r t e d t o i n. t h e ne i g hb our h oo d of Stroud, it was true, not for the protection of the masters, but to preserve the lives of men who had - refused to obey the orders of such of their fellow-workmen as had entered into combinations. e Mr. CRIPPS thought no weight 'ought to be attached to the numbers of petitions that might be presented, because he knew how easy it was to procure such petitions signed by workmen, under the pretext that it was to preserve their privileges. He denied that the mechanics were even fiejudges of their own in terest, as the bill of his Right lion: Friend respecting the ship ping trade sufficiently proved. The violence which had been practised towards some of the men in Glocestershire had .endan gered their lives, and justified the calling in the military and the provisions in the bill before th e H ouse were calculated to prevent future outrages. Mr. H. GURNEY spoke shortly from under the gallery, in SO low a tone of voice as rendered his observations inaudible. Mr. JONES rose to allude to the great change which find taken place in the opinions expressed by the lion. Member for Montrose (Mr. Hume) at the early period of, the session and those which he now avowed. He thought that the language of the Hon. Gent. was calculated to excite discontent in the minds of the workmen, by representing that they were oppressed, and about to be deprived of their privileges. Mr: WHITMORE expressed his intention, on the third reading of the bill, to propose a clause giving a power.of appeal from the decision,,of the liagistratea. Mr. W. SMITH thought that such a clause was highlyne cessary, and he would aopport it when it should be peopoSed.— At the same time he thought it better that the bill with 811 its faults should pasS than that the country should be left without a . protection against the disgusting outrages '. Which had lately taken place. The shief object of the bill, Was to enable men • who did not join the combinations to go to Work, lie had re ceived ma petitiona from the town he repeesented e emd he re gretted to hear there were so many fronts other plaCes. Sir P. MT DErr said he was opp&zed to the principle of the Bill, and thought that to repeal all laws Upon the subject would be the best course. The common law was quite enough toledress any, evils that might arise, and the workmen would then be tried fairly by their Peers, instead of being handed over only t o t h e d ecrees o f M ag i s t ra t es w h o might haye an in terest again s t them. The old laws had the effecrof keeping up. a sYsion otitippression against the poorer.classes—that oppres sion which It was said Would drive a ais man mad, and which . would therefore be likely to produce excesses aneotier the people exposed to it. Sufficient time bad net yet been '"given to the experiment Which had been tried, and he thought it hard since the cases of the workmen had not heeti fully examinetf,' that so precipitated conclusion should he come to against ih6rn. Ile knew that die workmen; had been grateful for the relief thea7 had enjoyed, and he wished that it should therefore be tried at least One year longer. lie ihoughi that, cOnsidering the im portance of the subject, and as the interests of a valuable 'and numerous elaSs of the Community were involved in it, R much more extensive inve s tio at i on s h ou ld h a v e b een gone in bi'b e f ore the Committee. Evidence had net been taken upon Many ma terial points, and yet ; the Bill went upon apresumption that all which loabeen alleged against the w6tkmen ad s proved.
