Wished to Gardens" should Lord SUFF one exception were captions till the r Lord ELT - " Hot Houses and 1 added to the Clause. The Earl of HARROWBY thought, if the word Build ings was used, the word Hot-houses was unnecessary. H e had heard in the debate that the law was uncertain, and he _thought their Lordships would not do their duty if they did not make the law quite certain. It was very hard that a man should not know, in defending his property, whether he committed murder or not. He had heard it doubted whether a man had a right to shoot another enter ing his house pith violence.—(No, from Lord Suffield)..... He had so understood it, and their Lordships could never leave a question of that kind under any doubt. He did not approve of the Amendment, and would not vote for a Bill which' did not prohibit setting spring-guns in all cases. After some further conversation, theirtordships The numbers, as we understood, were, on Lord Ellen borough's Amendment— Contents Non-contents Majority A second division took place, on the whole of the Mar quis of Lansdown's Clause— Contents, 29 I Not Contents, 27 I Majority, 2 The clauses relating to Scotland were withdrawn ; at which the LORD CHANCELLOR expressed his satisfac tion; observing, that if any alteration were made in the Law of Scotland on this subject, the present was not the mode by which it ought to be effected. GAME LAWS BILL. Lord WHARNCLIFFE moved the Order of the Day for the House to resolve itself into a Committee on the Game Laws Bill. subject in the present stage of the Bill ; but as it wasinteln'hteioAnlatroquis offer to A to L th N SD OWN S Hou o se lV l sem N said, observations sehars,aittiohAd upon h on n is the im possible but that it should be allowed to advance to the third reading, be would postpone doing so until that occa sion. The returns of imprisonments which had been la id on their Lordships' table - proved that the crimes which grewout to enormous practice extent; calledthat lied th late e o e f vil,as v years ane increased which called loudly for remedy. The House then resolved its e lf int o th e C om mitt ee , i n which various vbibal A men dm en t s were ma d e t o th e Bill . poaching, and Lord REDESDALE objected to the principle of the first clause, and thought thatthere were many innovations in the Bill which the tegiilature ought not to sanction. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY disapproved of many things in the Bill which were innovations, without being improvements on the old system. He particularly ob jected to that part of it which proposed the licensing of the sale of game. This was introduced, as appeared to him, for the purpose of affording an opportunity to great keepers of game, when they had an overgrown stock upon their hands, to dispose of them to some persons licensed to sell it. He preferred to keep up the present custom of disposing of the surplus quantity of game to one's friends and tenants. Filers appeared to be at present a rage for experiments which he was not disposed to sanction. There were ex periments in the Navigation Laws, in Trade, and they had not been attended with any great advantage : neither did he expect that experiments in the present law upon this subject would be attended with benefit. Lord WHARNCLIFFE said, that if the Noble Lord did not think there was any necessity for alteration in the present Game Laws, he could assure him he would find himself in a great minority of the nation iti that sentiment. Throughout the country the greatest anxiety prevailed for a change which the Noble Lord declared to be unnecessary. It was said that the Bill proposed in novations ; but it did not. Lord REDESDALE--" It is altogether new." Lord WHARNCLIFFE was prepared to prove that ;f was not new, even in those respects iu which the greatest novelty was supposed to consist. By the common law, a man had a right to kill game on the ground the freehold of which was in him. Such was the opinion of Lord Coke, who said, that he who hath a freehold, by reason of the freehold had a property in the animals, ferce naturce, found upon it. The same doctrine was established by the Statute Law, as appeared from the 10th of Henry 6th. Indeed, it stood to reason that this should be so ; for surely it could not be maintained, that the herds of another man should come on a man's freehold, and consume the pro duce of his soil, and that that man should not have a right to kill the game that thus intruded upon his land. He contended this was no novelty; but a practice conform able to Common and Statute Law, and consistent with common sense. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, that although Lord Coke was a very high and eminent authority, yet many of his doctrines on important subjects were ques tioned—and many of them were not the present law of the country. Now, he apprehended that his doctrine upon this subject was not the law of the country in the sense in which the Noble Lord understood it. That a man might have an action of trespass against a person who •carne upon his ground in pursuit of game might be—but he would ask, if the person on whose ground the game was killed could bring an action of trover for the game killed upon his ground, as being his property? If he could not, it would follow that he had no property in it. For the pre sent he would offer no opposition to the Bill, but should reserve whatever remarks he might be disposed to make to some future stage of the Bill. He would for the pre sent only say, that the great cause of the evil of poaching appeared to him to lie in what were called battus ; and whilst they were kept up, it would be as diffizult to pre vent the sun from shining as it would be to prevent poaching. - Lord - SUFFIELD said that there was the greatest ha tred throughout the country against the present laws. It was desirable that the sentiments of the Legislature should be consentaneous with public opinion. Public opinion was so decided against the present laws, that some change was indispensable. Lord ELLENBOROUGH said that instead of a discus sion of this kin I, it would be better to postpone the sug gestions they might have to offer when the Bill was before the House in all its details. Lord REDESDALE continued of the same opinion that he had at first expressed. The Noble Lord concluded by declaring that he objected to the measure because it would go to alter the whole system of the Game Laws, while b e bad much rather that these laws should remain as the} w ere . The Earl of ABINGDON could not avoid obser v i ng , Bill o s k se ee f pm t ip hnoeiee up too a necessit y upon every wouldan army a a be y a of great fifty deal or too sixty keepers to protect his property, w h ere on l y one had been that if game was too plentiful in the country, as it un doubtedly was at the present moment, he felt c onv i nce d e whent r Theßill the of pm p would necessary before. proprietor little.o roap The Duke of RICHMOND hoped that the Noble Lord (Lord Wharncliffe) would persist in supporting his clause' from layfin g th p e o follyison for - it,, d lit tvru vtliioic He was of the s ame op i n i on now as he had always been, that the sm a ll p ropr i etor had an undoubted right to d estroy any portion o f game w hi c h might come upon hi s l an d — . even _ _s land, f or th ere eras no to destroy any s th m a a t ll n; ) a r s o , p h r e ie t t h or ou b g a l d i t no w the power the only qualification necessary. The game which might happen to come upon 1 u strong pre was venthim fou hie sense o and injustice of the present system o f preserving game, that h e w ould vote for the Bill, how ever small the minority i n w hich it might be his' fate to fo rm one. The No bl e e r s t c ; i l . 1 c ould s o concluded by declaring that lie never could countenance any system which could not support itself by the power of the law, without having the assistance of an armed force.—(Hear, hear.) The Clause was then agreed to, and ordered to stand as a part of the Bill. Lord W HARNCLIFFE then intimated to their Lord ships his desire to consult their convenience respecting the discussion upon the other clauses. If it was their Lord ships' pleasure to postpone that discussion until another time, he had no objection. Several Noble Lords having expressed.a wish to go on , the Noble Baron was proceeding to move the next clause, when - - - woL.n,ol ft thentibnee 4Slperavneg Adjourned at a quarter Farl of HARROWBY expressed his hope that the Noble Lord would not persist in pressing forward the Bill, when so many Noble Lords who were interested in the question had left the House, with the understanding, that no other clause would be discussed that night.

BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE, N 0.124, APRIL • 11827.—" Blackwood is the best Magazine -caterer extant ; he is always certain to give us something good." So said a friend of our's t'other day, as we were talking of things in general, and " Blackwood's Magazine" in p ar ti cu l ar.-- For our parts, however, we thought the compliment, well meant though it was something of the flattest. Black wood's excellence is not relative, it is absolute ; comparison there is none between his journal and the miserable riff raffish stuff voided under the name of Magazines ; " he bears the palm alone." Not that he is without his faults ; far from it ; he is oftentimes unjust to his friends, anti sel dom generous to his enemies. Knowing the strength of his bow, the certainty of his aim, and the keen point of his arrow, he sometimes selects a victim merely to prove the skill with which he can transfix him. But, to say the truth, he seldom leaves him to writhe long in torture on the shaft. He is, upon the whole, a hu mane and gentlemanly sportsman, who loves, indeed, to drop his game the , •.,tant he comes within the pro per distance, but who 1 - . s no relish for inflicting unneces sary pain, or gloating over the dying agonies of his quarry. Then there are so many redeeming points about him ! His wit, his eloquence, his poetry, are all original and peculiar ; even his ridicule and invective are stamped with the same character ; every thing is his own, nothing is borrowed. Of imitators (sercum perus !) he has thousands upon thousands ; scarce an unfledged witling but must try his hand in the Blackwood style; in Magazines, polyonomous and " multifaced," you find him laid under contribution — his best things spoiled, his worst copied with dull fidelity, his wit evaporated in the vain attempt to transfuse it, and his genius bedizened with the tawdry frippery and fantasti cal falsetto of Grub-street. In short, he has stamped his image upon " the literature of the age," as it is called, and become the Great Exemplar upon which the diables roturiers of the periodical press fashion their lucubrations. But something too much of this. His present number is varied and excellent; it contains food for almost every palate.-- Caledonian Mercury. ELEGANT FURNITURE , GLASSES, SzC.— H. L. Cooper, 95, Bisliopsgate-street_Within, respectfully apprises the Nobility and Gentry , t h at he continues to supply every description of Upholstery and Cabinet Work, with Glasses of the most extreme size as well as moderate dimen s i ons , and every other article connected with the fur nishing of Houses in the most splendid as well as the neatest style, combining elegance and simplicity with true taste, thus obtaining, a t a very moderate expence, such a superior general effect, which the most laboured and costly furniture when not well arranged, ever fails to produce.

Earl GREY presented a petition from the Roman Ca tholic Inhabitants of St. Michael's, Dublin, praying to be relieved from the disabilities nnder which they labour. CORN LAWS. - - • Lord REDESDALE presented three petitions from Pa ' rishes in Durham, against any alteration in the Corn Laws. Lord DACRE, in presenting a petition from the Farmers frequenting Warwick Market, praying for protection to Agri= culture, wished to make one observation, though it was rather in the shape of a notice of a motion than any thing else. He , had suggested two years ago, that it would be proper to apply all the duties levied under an Act for the Protection of Agriculture, to the purposes for which it was levied. One reason why it was proposed to give any protection to agricul ture was, the various changes to which it was exclusively ex posed. If a duty were now to be levied on foreign corn, whatever its amount might be it ought to go to diminish those charges which pressed on the agriculturist, and'which were the grounds for affording him protection. When their Lordships considered for what purposes the duty was to be levied, he thought they would be induced to take care that the amount of them should be appropriated as he had mentioned. With a view of shewing what those charges were, he should then move for a Return of all the Money levied as county rates. With these Returns, if their Lordships were disposed to assume the controul of the money levied as duty, it would not be difficult, he thought, to apportion among counties and individuals, in proportion to the county rates they paid. He should, however, consult others better informed than he was, as to this point, and ascertain the best mode of giving effect to his object. If the measure were to pass, and a large duty were to be levied, without being appropriated in the way he suggested, the real object of the levying the duty—that of giving protection to agri culture—would not be obtained. His Lordship concluded by moving for a Return of all Money levied as county rates in England and Wales, since 1820. Lord REDESDALE contended that the plan of the new Corn Law was intended to levy a new land tax, in order to supply the place of other tares which had been abolished. There were some other taxes also which bad been repealed, which operated as a new land tax ; he meant among others the tax on tallow. The motion was then agreed to. Lord TEYNHAM moved for a Return of the Duty paid on Hops in the year 1826, with the number of acres on which hops were grown. After a few words from Lord MELVILLE, the Noble Lord withdrew his sue tion. The Earl of ROSSLYN presented three petitions for a Noble Friend of his, from the county of Ross, against any alteration in the Corn Laws. The Duke of RICHMOND presented two petitions from a parish in Sussex, and from the western division of the county, against any alteration of the Corn Laws, and particularly against the importation of foreign flour. Sir Alexander Grant and others from the Commons brought up two public and two private Bills. Lord Forbes and others from the Commons brought up a message from the Commons, requesting their Lordships to allow the Marquis of Clanricarde, and the Marquis of Sligo, to attend and give evidence before the Select Com mittee of the House of Commons, appointed to inquire into the Galway Election. The LORD CHANCELLOR replied that their Lord ships would send an answer by messengers of their own. Sir Alexander Grant and others from the Commons brought up a message requqsting their Lordships to supply the Commons with a copy of the report of their Lordships' Committee, appointed to inquire into, the state of the Bank-note Circulation of Ireland and Scotland. The Deport was delivered to the Members of the Com mons, who withdrew. SPRING GUNS. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY brought up the Report of the Committee on the Spring Gans Bill. Lord ELLENBOROUGH wished to give notice, that if no other Noble Lord proposed such an amendment, it was his intention to move, on the third reading of the Bill, that nothing in the present Act should prevent setting spring guns in houses and walled gardens. Lord SUFFIELD would oppose such an Amendment to the best of his power. He had an Amendment to suggest which he would then submit to their Lordships. It was to withdraw the clause of a Bill relative to bringing actions. That clause only encumbered the Bill without adding to its efficiency. As the Bill made the setting spring guns a misdemeanour, an action for damages would follow of course. The clause was accordingly withdrawn. The Marquis of LANSDOWN then moved to add a clause, excepting the inside of the house from the opera tion of the Bill. He felt that what had induced their Lordships to assent to the Bill so readily was, that it put an end to setting engines to protect property that was not invaded with violence. To repel violence it was at present lawful to use violence, and it could not be conceived that any body would attempt to enter a house without being guilty of violence. Their Lordships could not desire that it should prevent the use of those engines, when they were necessary to protect houses. He himself never used such machines ; but he knew other persons did, and their houses were in places so exposed, that they thought they should not be secure without adopting this precaution, or at least without giving notice that it was adopted. He had had the assistance of the Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack to draw up the clause, and therefore he offered it to their Lordships with the greater confidence. The Noble Lord then moved, that a clause should be added to the 13111,; cepting houses from its operation. . - The Earl of WESTMORLAND was sorry to differ from the Noble Lord, but he had understood that the great object of the Bill was to prevent the inflicting of injury, and lie should be glad to know if this might not be done when spring guns were set in houses, as well as when they were set in woods ? He should oppose the amendment. Lord ELLENBOROUGH suggested, that no accident could occur except against trespassers, if the guns were al ways pointed outwards. Lord SUFFIELD ventured, with the greatest difficulty, to differ from the Noble Marquis, but he could not agree with him as to the right of shooting in dwelling houses. He apprehended, and he spoke the opinion of legal men, when he stated, if a person was caught entering a house, he might be resisted and shot; but if a person had entered a house, and he was in a drawing-room, for example, and dh i c i , a_ e d ,is e l,einr no resistance, ffi It 1, et hle, opiirdistoonliv)passioloseuonttilii:ltegwafimiiiilienntodlmls_loemunoltdt, hbio)iencalgo;unialntp)d,eio.i_ff murder.

The LORD CHANCELLOR explained, that the clause only said that the setting Spring Guns in dwelling-houses was not made a misdemeanour by this Act, but it left the law in other respects as to the subject unaltered. It was difficult to say what the law was in consequence of some recent judicial opinions on this subject; but he apprehend ed that the correct judicial opinion was, that where due notice had been given, though it was difficult to ascertain that due notice had been given, that setting Spring Guns was not illegal. Lord ELLENBOROUGH, if the clause waa sdoptell,
