I'Y, Two o'n - 1.3c-k_ In the Liverpool Cotton Al :arket yesterday there was no change in prices. Th a sales were estimated at 7,000 bales-1,000 for ex} Kort and speculation. The business done in the Shal -e Market was mode rate, without any change in I nices. Accounts from the French wool markets report a further decline in prices. A t Paris the producers having consented to a slight reduction, sales were effected with facility at 2f. 20s:. to 2if. for wools in grease per half kilo., and from sf. to 6f. for washed wools. The. Parisian woollen manufacturers have recently been importing Italian wools, chiefly from Pouille, in the kingdom of Naples, and Romagne, which are found to be good combing wools. One large house has also received from 500 to 600 bales of wool from Spain. At Cha -- lons-stir-Maine, it was thought at the open ing of the season that the price of wools would be maintained at 10 per cent. advance on last year's prices, which for the first week or two were, obtained. Subsequently vend ors found a difficulty in effecting sales at the adv ante, and now they are glad to obtain the average ruling prices of 1855 for wools of all sorts. Thu) market is now quiet, with a better demand for fine than common and unwashed .wools; at the same time trans •aotions are becoming fewer, anti it is expected that the season will close with grev.t dullness. The Board of Trade returns for the month end ing the 30th ult. have been issued, and compared with those of the corres'ponding period of last year are considered very enc:ouraging. The imports of a large number of the most important articles of manufacture and prodrice have increased, and the exports of all articles Torero valued at 10,661,0871. against 8,168,5951. in the like month of 1855. The shipping returns, 13 , 3 th as regards the foreign. and coasting trade, exhibit a material improvement in commercial affairs since the restoration of peace. The Bank of England return for the week end ing July 19 is rather -favourable, all things con sidered. In consequence of the export demand for specie, and the limited receipts of that article from America and Australia, the bullion has fur ther declined, but not to a material extent, and there is a slight further reduction in the reserve of Notes. . The other alterations have partly been produced by.the dividend payments. ActiVe Circulation Decrease .

American Railway. investments, owing to the high rates of divid end they generally yield, are now attracting attention. Michigan, Southern and Northern Indiana stock, which has just been introduced. upon the books of the London Stock Exchange, pays 101. dividend at the present mar ket price, and is considered one of the first class roads of the United States. The stock has been 'taken by strong parties well able to hold it as an in vesttnent, and, it must upon its merits advance still higher. In the Railway Share Market dealers mention that they have not experienced so quiet a market for some time past. Caledonian have declined 55., Lancashire and Yorkshires, lOs., North Eastern York, lOs., and Great Western of Canada, ss. Mines and Miscellaneous have been inactive. eItITISII FUNDS THIS DAY AT ONS O'CLOCK. ( Prom ths Osciai List.) . • rttynnes,, done. Bank Stock 4 per vent. Reduced Annuities 96t $ Per Cent.

Most of those. persons who became alarmed at the fall in copper lays cleared out, and as very few of the present holders 're pressing-the market now, the demand at low rates has been greater than the supply, and we have bnt little doubt that when shares are supposed to have reached their lowest point many fresh purchasers will appear, and a general reaction take place for moat descriptions shares.. .`there is no lack of -.money, • except in the tearket itself, and many persons who sold out as the panic c ommenced did so with a view -of buying in- cheaper before the dividends came round.—.

SPIRITS AND MALT;--In the year 1855 there were entered for home consumption in the 'Milted Kingdom 26,745,962 gallons of spirits, and in England, 14,841,555 gallons, of which 10,384,100 were British, 3,018,409 colonial, and 1,438,936 foreign. In Scotland, 5,536,467 gallons of spirits were charged for home consumption, and iu Ireland, 6,367,940. 3,223,575 gallons of rum were entered list year, and yielded a duty of 1,300,4511. The quantity of malt entered was 33,887,564 bushels, and the charge 6,767,0761. The quantity of spirits made from malt only was 4,593,880 gallons, and the amount of malt drawback paid, 194,480/. The qUantity of malt spirits consumed was—=in England, 936,478 gallons ;in Scotland, 3,447;257 ; and in Ireland, 34,777 g'allons. Ten licences were granted for the Making of Methylated spirits under the•new act, and' the quantity made was 76,049 gals. The number of persons authorised . t6 mike' malt duty free, for the use of distillers, was 201, and the quantity made 3,256,800 bushels. It should be ob-: served that these figures refer to the first three quarters of the financialeyear, and do not include the quarter ended on the 31st of March. INFORMALITY IN THE REGISTERS OP voTtris.—An, immense number of voters on the register for the West Riding of Yorkshire have this year had their names ob jected to on a point of form., Three or four years ago objections were taken on a large scale by the Conserva tive party in Lancashire to the entry in the second column of the register of voters, beaded " Place of Ahode." At the next revisien for the Westßiding - of' York the Liberal party broughtthiS question' befiere the revising barristers, who held an opposite opinion. These eonflieting decielens rendered it imperative that the opinion of the superior e oeurt should. be taken 'Ow the point, and, with the concurrence of both the leading political parties, a case was framed for the Purpose at the Revis ing Barristers' Court at Bradford this year. Thecae Was heard and duly argued in the ceurt of appeal, and the Lord Chief justice delivered a,decision, in which Justices Williams, Crowder, and Willes concurred, to the effect that the description of a voter's place of abode, without the name of the township in which he resides, in the column of the register headed "Place of abode," •is insufficient. This decision has rendered it necessary to reclaim in all cases of insufficient description' of resi dence, and,hence the numerous objections. which appear on the present lists' for. the Wert Rislieg. Of course, new cwas have been dent in on behalf of all the persons , objected: to on this tech; icel ground. .

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS.-YESTERDAY. INDIA. The - Marquis of CLANRICARDE moved for certain returns 'relitive to the — assessme n t of rent-free estates in India, and the covenanted and uncovenanted civil ser— vice of the East India Company ; the law expenditure of the Company in Englandoind the condition of the allow ance mule to tbe deposed Rajah of Coorg. In doing so be said he should abstain from going into all the topics the return embraced, as humerely moved for them with a view to a more extended inquiry which he intended to propose next session. There could be no doubt, how ever, that the double government of India was most de fective in its operation, throwing obstacles in the way of the investment of capital is India, and withholding that protection from the natives which they had a right , to expect. it was not surprising that the members of the Government were averse to inquiry into the abuses of its administration, because under its influence they bad succeeded in obtaining eonsiderable 4jstinction, re putation, and wea:th, and they could lardly avoid being more or less blind to the defects of the syatem. Hence , it was almost impossible to obtain full and accu rate information on the subject of the affairs of India, but as inquiry could not possibly be delayed beyond this session, he hoped there would be no objection to grant him the returns be was about to ask for. The first of them related to the confiscations of estates, by the Government, Mid he trusted lie should not be told that the casts of confiscation were too great td - ndmit, of their being laid befois Parliantent. (A. laugh.) The noble marquis concluded by moving for a return shuw l ing the , number of prnviously rent-free estates or parts of estates assessed to the land tax, with.the gross amount of assessment thereon, within the territories of Bengal, Behar, Orissa,- and Benares, from the date of the com mission appointed in 1828 for making such assessment to the latest time for which the same can be furnished • also for a return showing the number of officers of the Indian army employed in civil and politicalduties in the respective years 1847 and 1855, or the latest for which the same can be furnished, together with the amount disbursed on their account in salaries or other allowances 1 in the years in question ; also a return showing the num ber of officers of the covenanted civil service in the ac- tual discharge of duties under the several governments of British India in the years 1834, 1847, and 1855, or the latest for which the same can be furnished, together with the amount disbursed on their account ,in salaries or other allowances in the respective, years in question ; also a return of the number of persons belong ing to the covenanted civil service of the East India Company absent on sick leave or furlJugli, together with the amount paid to them as absentee allowance, in the respective years 1834, 1847, and 1105, Or latest for which , the same can be furnished ; an d a l so a return showing the number of 'persons in the uncovenanted civil service of the East India Company within the Several governments of India, toge.her with thytotal amount paid to them , as Salary or allowance in the several years 1834, 1847, and 1855, or latest for which the same can be furnished, and distingui-ling, hi so far as the same nay be practicable, European-Lorn from Indian-born_ _Britiala subjects or Eurasians: - Be also moved that the return, of the law expenditure in England of the East India Company since the year 1853, ordered to be laid before this house on the 16th Juri, be made forthwith ; and also for copies ,of any minute of the East Indian Governtnent in 1834, specifying the terms and conditions of the allow ance to be . tn - adelifthe deposed . Rajah of Coorg. The law expenses he believed to be monstrous, and he sup posed that to be the only reason for the return not having been made. With respect to the last return, re lating to the Rajah of Coorg, he must say he considered thy conduct of the East India Company to that noble .mau was most disgraceful. It was alleged that one rea son why he should return to India was that it was not well to encourage the expenditure of Indian revenue in England ; but that was a most absurd 'pretence, seeing that all they alluwed the rajah in England was 4481. a, year. The real reason why they wished him to return to India was that he might not be here to superintend a chancery suit he wae prosecuting against the company. The Diiki - of ARGYLL said he had explained to the noble marquis that he did not , feel called upon - on the part of 'the GoVetoment to defend the course taken by the East India Company. It , was not a matter in which the Government had a right to control the company. If he were CO express his own individual opinion he would rather agree with the noble marquis. He did not see that there could beg r eat in this person's re mainingany harm, maining in London. At the same time he was in such a Position as to require leave of absence. He asked for it, •and it was given, on condition that he should return in one year, and at the end of tha4eriod the East India Company 'insisted upon his return. After a few worth) from the Earl of ELLIT,NBOROUGEL who sugzestel that the wording should he more general, The motion was agreed to. , LORD COMBERMERE. Lord ST. VINCENT then rose to put a question of which he had given notice—whether, inasmuch ae the judgments of the highest legal tribunals are matters of public record, and may be referred to as facts in the isnowledge of GOvernment, and umsidering the severe censures that have. been passed in three successivejrdg ments, pronounced by the late Lord Chancellor Cotten ham, by Sir J. W&ori, judge' of the Prerogative Court, of Canterbury, and by the Judicial Committee of Priv% Council, upon the conduct of a noble member of this house, holding ,the situation of Constable of the Tower of .London, and also a distinguished officer near her Majesty's person her Majesty's Governmont• have thought proper, for th% due preservation of the high char; acter i,I this house, to take say steps in reference thereto, or if they intend so to do?., The noble lord, after some further observations, which were inaudible in the gallery, requeAA that, AS he was . in infirm health, the Clerk might read portinris of the judgment. - • The 'at the table then, read the following ex-, tracts from the judgments referred to : • . 'Vineland has seen that Mr. Dyc'e Sombre had sufficient cunning of himself at that time to parry the examinations . that were made of tini 'as he had done at Paris. But it is important to 'see whether that was not wrongly advised and recommended, and whether it was not pressed upon him over and over again by'Mr. Mahon and others, that he should conceal his delusion in this respect, that he had no chance of recovering his liberty unless he did conceal it, and unless he did state that that delusion had passed away. Over and over again is that caution given to him by Mr. Afahon and by many other persons ; but it is given more especially and more emphatically by. Lord and Lady Coin bernaere, who have taken an active part in this matter. There is a letter from Lard Comberme - re; which is dated in 1847; there are, indeed, earlier letters of the same kind; but this letter goes to the examinations which subse quently teokplace- , -namely, those in 1848, in Dee., and also in Nov., . when he was examined by the Chancery Physicians. Lord Combermere's letter is to this effect : - ".You should come to Dieppe, and there wait till you get the permission to come, over to Brighton ..to-be-examinedby Dr's. Bright arni^Siiiithey." • So that he was preparing hits for this very ,examination Brighton. If you arisWiii•their questions coolly, and in a' few words, they must declarUyon'to be in such a state as to render you quite 'fit to have your liberty indproperty, which, I think; have been so unjustly withheld from you. I hope when yea ..are ,:.examined ,that yep will say as - little as you poßibly, can about Mrs. D. S. • You shoulii,l think, say that whatever delusion you laboured under some time ago, i.has left ,you," It is advice not only - about what he is to but.what he is to say is to be prepared for these examinations. He itrin be Crammed f)r their], as it is sometimes expressed : " You should, I think, sty that whatever delision' you laboured under soine,time ago, it has left you,-as you. became divested of . your Eastern notions and feelings about women ; and - firrther'' that there is; no_ lohgeiltnYdangeritf your being-lealons her {not that you are convinced that you have beeu under - e r r o V un(le* delusion) ittasmunir fls:.yriii have-lost 'all love, admiration, and.atfection for -her, sand that no vntverupon. :eartia shonldinduce, you to live with or go near :her You ShOuld say also that it is your wish to go to -India, for ;the benefit of your health, and in, order .to look 'lute and ;arrange your affairi. Let Me Ittiovi on Whitt day you Will be at . Dieppe.' I•will go down to Brighton when I know that you are to be there." When I see hoW this poor man we'® prepared- - for the purpose of undergoing, his examinations—hoW- he was prged- by ; various,. petrions to conceal thoughts not to give his delusietalfr z birt' 432 comical t hem, and. to inetend that he Ukl.P nt 9Pe reaining,,j.n.o7llerthat he might pass,bka /night get.hiseuparaetleas; and might. recttver,tl4 Whole . of his Vroperty-:whia r. see what has take plat 'wit~ti r4'6.iTto'int..Maiapi); and. With respect to, Mr. Prinsep, though, undoubtedly, the letters which ,were r Svrittifi%,•-him'Avertilietplic6elYdtbe 's:arttelenour, and think , notso blampahi', its those which were written by bay Lord Combermeresand Lady :Cohrbermere, urging the Concealment Of the delusion—l say that I think, under all. the circtupst,3nces ,of . ee, ;, , am • botind to: pronounce „ against tne,milt oittla.costs, , - I , rtittloneafter Oceiited two co7nrounicat ions, of s oh ratter nnexa rir`riled hope; in'tfie" histoiy of thia court, The first was dated the 24th of .

It is a practice cal -1 culated to 'd inert the course of justice, and ought to be more fret:m:4ly treated than it is. as a high contempt of court. It i s too often excused on account of the station , and tonditio rvin life of the parties guilty of it, who are supposed to be ignorant of what. is due to the court. No such !muse can' be made in this case. If this was-not intended as a private communication ; 'why was it made in that form.? Why was it not brought before the court in the usual manner,' tbrough . thnsolicitor andediipsel of the juuatic, , Nho alone : could be recognised as his represen tatiVei? I have received from two of the subscribers to that letter,. Lords Combermereand Shrewsbury, an asset r. ance that no thing disrespectful to myself was intended by that comrounication. 'I never corsidered in that light.: hut, as judge of the court against .which th , s contempt has been committed, I am bound to express my high reproba tion of the course pursued, not Only on accnant of tba let ter itself, but also on account of the rank and station of the parties implicated. The IVTarquis' of LANSDOWNE said' this was winost pajuful subjeot. The observations which had been read were made in a civil suit, and they related to a noble •lord whO was not a party to that suit, and who had no opportunity of being- heard in his own defence. Her Majesty's Government were not prepared to institute any proceedings, and they did not mean to pronounce Any opinion on, these judgments, which successive judges had given as to the conduct of the noble earl. If they were called upon to institute an inquiry, it conk', only be by a proceeding which would enable the noble lord to come forward and state his own case and make his own defence. He had had no such, opportunity; and not having had such opportunity,- Government, without pronouncing any opinion, were not prepared to take that sort of proceeding which the noble lord seemed to wish. At the same time be was sure the house would appreciate the motives which had induced the "noble lord to bring forward this motion, connected ~a s it was with a near relative of his, and a most accomplished lady. After a few words from Lord St. VINCENT, the ,Sub ject dropped. - EXAMINERS OF PRIVATE BILLS. Lord REDESPALE, moved the appointment of Sa muel Smith and Chas. Frere, Esqrs., to be examiners of standing orders and private bills for the ensuing session. Agreed to. THE HOSPITALS (DUBLIN) BILL. The report of the amendments on this bill was received.

A new writ was also ordered to issue for Nottinghatn, in the room - of Mr. E. Strutt, who has accepted th© stewardship of Hemphohn, in the county of York. EAST INDIA ROADS. Mr. KENNEDY moved for copies of minutes and correspondence between the late GovernOr-General and the Home Departments of the Government, of India, in reference to the project of the Hindostan and Tibet Road, with the several reports of Major Kennedy and Briggs relating thereto, and an account of the expense attending °lnstruction thereof; and of re ports of engineer ; and an account of the expenditure incurred in reference to the construction of the new road between Itilka and the military sanitary station, of Dukshai.—Ordered. CAMP AT ALDERSHOT. Mr. LOCKE KING moved for a.return showing the total 'number of acres purchased by the nation at Alder shot, and the total - cost of the land so purchased; the cost of the huts and other buildings in each year, in de tail, and of any other expense connected with the per— manent establishment of the camp;` the total number of troops stationed at Aldershot in each year, distinguish ing Cavalry, artillery, engineers, infantry, militia,, and Foreign Legion ; the number. of the reviews at Alder-. shot in each year, and the days on which they were held; the' quantity of ammunition expended at each review ; the quantity of ammunition - expended in experi ments in each year ; the total - quantity of„ammunition expended in each year ; and the amount paid for food and forage for th 6 trOo?S in each year.--Ordere& MAIL TO THE CAPE AND INDIA.. In reply to anHorr. MEMBER, . Mr. WILSON said that five tenders had been made to the GOvernment for the performance of this•contract. One offer was for 43,000/. to commence oo theist of October, the second was for 42,0001. to commence in three months ; the third was for 34,0001. to commence in two months;" the fourth was for 27,5001. to com mence on CIA Ist of October ; and the fifth was for 28,0001. to commence on the Ist August. There was socneCrnission in the advertisement for the tenders with respect to the India part of- the contract, and the Go vernment theref)re decided to accept the fifth tender for the sum of MOM, - which was to be increased to 41,000/... for the carrying out the transmission of the mails to the Mauritius and India. The term of the contract was for five years. SATURDAY SITTING. On the motion of-Sir G. GREY it was agreed that the house meet to-morrow at 12 o'clock for the reception of bills from the other house. THE AUSTRALIAN MAILS. Mr. H. G. LA.NGTON asked whether it wag in• tended, previously to their entering upon the service, to test the speed , of the steam , vessels proposed to be employed under a recent contract in the conveyance of the Australian mails, seeing that by the copies of the tenders now before the house the time occupied by the voyage from Suez to Melbourne will require a speed of 11 or 114 knots an hour, whoreas the vessels tendered for the performance of the duty are set down at a speel of 9f knots per hour only I Mr. WILSON said it was'not intended to test the speed of the vessels. The parties bad bowl themselves in very heavy penalties for the performance.of the con tract at a certain rate of speed, and it had been intimated to them that those penalties, in the event of their non performance, would most certainly not be relinquished, It was therefore, he apprishen&d, for the parties them selves to ascertain the speed of the vessels it was in tended to employ in the service. . Mr. H. G. L _INGTON asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether, in order to ensure the regular per formance of the contract for conveying the mails be tween Suez and Australia, any clause will be introduced by which the contract will be f()rfeited is the event of the service not being performed within the maximum number of days tendered for, viz, 39 days outwards, and 35 days homeward ? Mr. WILSON said that if the contract was not per formed within the time specified the contractors would be liable to heavy penalties; but there would be a general clause inserted in the contract, the same as in all others, that it would be put an end to by the Govern ment at any time they may be-dissatisfied with the per formance of it by, the contractors. OFFICIAL PATENTS. Mr. MURROUGH asked the Chancellor of the Ex chequer whether the opinion of the law offlars of the Crown had. been .given respecting the new practice of Secretaries of State not completing their patents, and thus escaping the payment 'of stamp duty on appoint. ments under the Crown ;if so, w hether that opinion could be laid on the table of the house ; also, whether. for the future, persons appointed to the offices of Chief Secretaries of State would be required to follow the old custom of taking out their patents ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the usual precedents in this ease,tvould* he fol. lowed. 1„t was the intention of the Secretary of State, who had not taken out patents, to do so. H e clirred laying on the table Of the honie'tbe opinions of the law officers of the Crown on the subject, it being . unusual. THE CRIMEAN COMMISSIONERS. Mr. IAYA. - RD called the attent i .On - of the Govern ment to the i ep , I rt of, tha Beard of Geneial Officers; is reference .to ,tha Crimean commissioners' report, Avd asked if - the Government was •satisfied with that re port, and considered, it did justice. to. those bni ve and devoted men who had suffered in the Crimea, and, bad died there and at Scutari • and also if Govern ment were willing to accept the' - nnoalled-for Opinion of' the Board,of General.

Mr. DISRAELI then rose, pursuant to notice, to move for a return of the numb er o f pu b lic bills and their titles, the orders for which in any of their stages have been dia• charged during the present session, and the date of the (Re charge of each of such orders. The right hon. gentleman said—Sir, -I wish before we disperse to ask the house to consider the course of public business during-the present session of Parliament. I take this step with no intention of preferring any indictment against those who are mainly responsible for the management of affairs in this house. I have never deemed that the last day of the session afforded the most convenient or the ,most fair occasion for prosecu ting a party attack, and I should not have made the motion I am about to place in your hands were I not convinced that there are great evils and even dangers connected with our present position, and did I not believe that, in the course of this discussion, some suggestion may perhaps be thrown- out which may, during the long recess, produce an influence upon the public Mil2ll, and may lead to the application--when we meet again—of some remedy for those grievances which" am about to bring under your notice. Sir, the course lam taking is one which is not usual. It is a course, as I have already said, which I think ought not to be resorted to as a weapon of party warfare, and the history of our proceedings shows that it has not been our habit to have recourse to it with that object. -Indeed, on looking for precedents for the course I have adopted, I am not aware that there is more than one to which I ,could refer as an authority, and that precedent it would not become me to adduce, for it was made by my self in the year 1848, when I felt ,it my duty to ask the house to consider the course of public business during th session then about to close. I think, Sir, that reference may at least acquit me, or others, of taking advantage habit - dilly of occasions of this kind to disturb the sere nity which should' attend' the last hours of our com panionship; or of 'having seized sack opportunities to express opinions adverse to' the' Ministry which I should prefer to "express in' the course of the ses sion, when, if defeated in' argument unfairly, I might recur to the subject, and - when the Government could not say that at the end of their labours they were called upon unexpectedly to vindicate a course whi c h th ey m i g h t not under such circumstances have an opportunity of com pletely defending. In 1848 I made a motion similar to that which is now upon the table of the house, and I think acquitted - of hating been influenced on that oc casion by - any- party- feeling, because th e gen tl emen who - - then sat upon the , Ministerial benches had only recently attained them; and I:believe I may say with truth that : they had •gained their position mainly by the efforts of . ' ley fri ends an d myself.. It was certainly . w ith no d es i re, ... to disturb them in the occupation of those benches, or tea . dareage e their reputation. in the country, that I felt i i i; my duty, in the exigency which existed in 1848, ta'c , a .al upon the House of Commons to consider what they 1 grad . accomplishedln the session which was then on al e point of terminating. (Hear.) .That session was, 'ra' be lieve, one of almost unparalleled duration in the anrii Is of Parliament. The House of Commons had sat for uceond secutive.ipionths, and it is not to be denied th a t at ee n of that tune the account of our labours, es of a venef fruit. . .. less character. Great dissatisfaction and disconta , n a pre veiled throughout the country in consequence, Fid many reasons were urged and many causes w e r e alleged why so prolonged a sitting had been productive of cue' s s li g h t an d unsatisfactory results. It was said thena-er„„aatbie was a very prevalent mode of accounting for the r aortifying cir cumstances I have mentioned-that the fOr vas of the house al to th e age were in fault,-- 3 that: they were sot , suit e in which-We live, and to the m u l t i f arion ianelnitiltiplied trans actions with which we have to cope-- .. again, it was said eee.... that - another cause' which produced2 - :veisi results was the too.feeettielit discaesio this hon* l e t wee' said that them , existed on the part of mettelbeare ~ L..,1. of . .r arliament too, great ' a desirie to., express ,' , • their opmione,eand too much eagerness to debate the questions which were submitted to their. consideration. . _ It appeared tome that botlithese allegations had a very dangerous_ tendency at all timea, but especially in 184% . , .. be cause Patlianient Was then paling, and there were, I be lieve 230 new members in ale house. Nothing, I appre hend, is more to be deprecated thau that men who have recently. entered this house, and who, consequently, have no great experience as to 'elle mode in which our proceed ings are. conducted,. shoaild believe that in the standing , orders and forme of the Houee there are obstacles to the satisfactory prosecution of public business. Those who are acquainted with the proceedings of this House Inoiv that its forms have been framed after deep thought and mature experionee, - aed that the allegation to which I have re ferred sae little foundation. . The second charge, that the mem'aersof this House were too prone to discussion,, was one- Which ought always, I think; to be received With great suspicion ; for what is this Reese if .it is not a bouse of •fitseussiOn ! It is - aaHotis6 of Parliainent, and its very naine , denotes its:. character. It' is a ',mese of free end • ample speech, and whatever questions there may be as to the policy - of our legialation; hoWever little the labours of our investigating committees may bo appreciated, I have always thought, and I still think, that the main claim we have upon theconfidence, and Ihope the affection, of the people is this-that there is a general, a prevalent, and a well-formed eehaicticin in the counteythat there is at least one, place in England where, in the long run, truth 'Will always be elicited. Well, Sir, at that time so anxious and naturally anxions-a-were the'Governiment of the day to avail themselves of anyplausible excuse to - divertfroin them selves the'rising odium which attended the results of our Parliamentary ; lsbour.s that the Prime Minister absolutely proposed and nominated, a .committee to inquire • into the subject of the forms of the house, and to ascertain whether those forms really were obstacles to the conduct of public 'business, and how they might be modified ; in order to facilitate its prosecution. The noble lord thelnem ber for the cityof London, who was then Prime Minister,w as a member Of that committee. Among its other members were the late Sir R. Peel, the la. e Mr. Gonlburn, the right hon. member for Carlisle (Sir J. Graham), I belteye, and Mr. Cobden - a and the coMmittee had also the advantage of the valuable experience and judgment of the hon. membee for • Maltina 1, also, wake member of the committee. arid we gaVegrcat attention :to the subject. We examined's mem ber of the American House of. Assembly, with reenact to the rules which applied to public • businees in the United States. _ We. ex:tinkled an illustrious exile: then in this country : : : who had been Prime Minister of France; and who was. a great master 'of debatea-M.

I did not want the information "I obtained as a member of that committee to convince me that it was neither the fornis of the hanies nor freedom' of discussion that had pre vented the satisfactory accomplishment of public business in 1813 ; and it' was in accordance with the feelings, and at the desire of many of my new friends, .thet I tindertleak the laborious task of reviewing a session which had lasted fol. 10'montbs, and 'of preying, I hope-however I may have failed in other objects-a-that .neither 'of the Cause. alleged had the slightest influence upon the course pf pube -lie buainees during that session, and of vindicating, as I trust completely, the House of Commons in that respect. It is for the same object, and actuated by the same feelings, that I have brought forward this motion to-day. I do not think it is a motion that ought to be made except in parti , 'cider circumstances; and circumstances of great emergency. ' I think it is of the utmost importance that we shonld clis ceier what is the came of that general discontent and dis ' satiSfaction with the labours of this house which could not have been anticipated in the session, but which, I think, it is almOst acknovidedged has within the lid six weeks or two menthe euddeelyariaen in the public mind.--I will admit that I do not by any means maintain that it is a, matter of course on the part of the Minister of UM; country to be too prone to legislation. On the contrary, I think that the Minister is the last - Member of this house who should interfere in mettera of that kind: I think' that; as a : general rule, it is best that the Minister should not inteifere with any subject which requi'r'es legislatiou unless he feels convinced he can daeil witlaiteatiSfectetily ae&conclusively. I should say that when there . may be questions that greatly interest the public mind, though there may be a restless and, even in a certain degree, a rational feelirg in the nation that these questions shot : flu:be dealt with, it ie'possible the time may not be ripe,far their solution, and .in these circumstances they' rather fall to thelet of independent members of this house, ' who may ehape their prelitnimity disciissiciii, and by impart ing knowledge and ultimately eliciting truth place them in a position' withaihich the Minister may advantageously de: l withthem. • Therefore; Sir, I should never impute blame to any Minister if I found that he was somewhat reserve d si in-the iiitti?'Of ligialatiOn; and Was not prepared to a neces sit y the house to Benefices measures -upon any greet topicn f.. uie;fi h6felt.
