ABOLITION OF SLAVERY. The Duke of WELLINGTON presented a petition from a number of planter, hnnuitants, arol other persons having property in Jamaica, praying to be heard by Counsel against certain clauses in the Slavery Abolition Bill. On the motion of the Earl of RIPON, the House then resolved itself into a Committee on the Abolition of Slavery Bill. The Preamble was postponed. On the first clause having been read, The Duke of WELLINGTON observed, that on a former occasion, when he had remonstrated against the reduction of the term of apprenticeships from twelve years to six, a Noble and Learned Lord had told him that it was in consequence of the increase of compensation to the planters from a loan of 15,000,0001. to a gift of twenty millions. On all questions of fact, there was nothing like dates. They would show clearly to the Noble and Learned Lord, that the compensation was first proposed as a loan of fifteen millions, then as a gift of fifteen mil lions, then as a gift of twenty millions, in which shape it was agreed to, a considerable time before the curtailment of the reran of apprenticeships. Ahout the 25th of Feb. the proposition of a loan to the West India planters, of fifteen millions, originated. On the 2d of May, a depu tation from the planters waited on the Secretary of State for the colonies. On the 14th of May, the Right Hon. Gentleman again proposed to the House of Commons the loan of fifteen millions, suggesting that perhaps it might be made a gift. On the 3d of June came the proposition that there should be a gift of twenty millions. On the 10th June the Right Hon. Gentleman made that motion in the House of Commons,the term of apprenticeship being all this while 12 years. On the 12th of Jun the resolution to that effect passed; and it was not until the 25th July that the term of apprenceship was changed from twelve to six years. lie had felt it necessary to make that state ment, in order to rebut the assertion of the Noble and Learned Lord, that the gift of twenty millions and the curtailment of the apprenticeships had been propositions dependent on one another. He understood that the crop was collected in the West Indies between June and Sep tember, at which period it would be most inc. , nvenient to commence any change in the situation of persons perform ing the labour. Under these circums•ances the planters were exceedingly anxious that the commencement of the apprentice-hip should not take place till January ; on the other hand, they were not desirous that the apprenticeship should continue beyond January, 1840; thus, instead of June, 1834, the apprenticeship would commence January, 1835, instead of ending June, 1840, it would end January, 1840, brine a period of five years instead of six. The Noble Duke concluded by proposing an arro•ndment to that .ff et. The LORD CHANCELLOR said the dates referred to proved his statement to be correct, that was, provided their Lor ships took his statement as he gave it. and not as the Noble Duke represented it. The Noble Duke appeared to misunderstand what he said, and considered him as speaking of the Government, when he was merely refetring to the House of Commons, and what he said tws in explanation of what had taken place there. The original proposition of Government was a loan of 15,000,0001 and twelve years' apprenticeship. This loan was alerwards changed into a gift, and this gift subse quently extended to 20,000 0001. When the planters had gained this advant ige there were many per.. sons, but not the Government, who thought that it ought to be attended with some proportionate di minution of the period of apprenticeship A narrow division took place on the proposition for diminishing the apprenticeship, and it was perectly clear that if Govern ment persisted in it, they would be beaten. They there fore proposed to reduce the term to seven yens. The Bill having been thus nettled, it became his duty to take their Lordships' opinion upon the clause. In supporting which he was not supporting his own opinion so much as that of the House of Commons anti his Noble C dleagues; for if the term had been reduced to three years, he would not have broken his heart. There was, however, this objection to the proposition of the Noble Duke, which lie did not think could be got over, viz., that although his amendment would diminish the period of apprenticeship, yet it would extend that of absolute slavery six months longer than the time fixed by the other those of Parlia ment. Front what he heard, however, he believed that, at the time fixed by the Bill, the greater portion of the crops would he got in. Viscount ST. VINCENT said the crops were later than the Noble Lord imagined. It would be productive of very great inconvenience if the commencement of the ap prenticeship were not postponed at least till the Ist of August. He hoped the Noble Lord would make this concession to the convenience of the planters. No doubt in miny parts, however, the crops terminated by June. T , e Earl of RIPON said that the observations of the Noble Viscount confirmed generally what be understood of the crops, that they ended in June—in certain portions of the island, however, they might he liter. When the Bill was originally prepared, he proposed to commence on the Ist of January. But in consequence of the representation of the planters, that this would be in the midst of the ex citement of the Christmas holydays, and on the eve of the crops, he altered it to the let of June. The proposition of the Noble Viscount would not, however, be liable to the objection to which he had referred, and if their Lordships thought it desirable, he would not object to it. Lord W YNFORD said, that although the amendment of the Noble Duke would prolong the period of slavery six months, it would shorten that of apprenticeship twelve. Lord SUFFIELD would have no objection to the ap prenticeship ending in November, 18:39, but could not consent to extend the period of slavery. The Duke of WELLINGTON withdrew. his amend ment in favour of the proposition of the Noble Viscount, which w,,s then adopted, and the clause, with amend ments, agreed to. On reading clause 3, The Duke of WELLINGTON moved an amendment, providing that the clause should apply to such persons only as were in England, or the free British dominions, with consent of their owners at the time of, or after the passing of the Act. The LORD CHANCELLOR opposed the amendment as unnecessary, ant! said that the consequences antici pated by the Noble Duke could not arise; for as the clause now stood, a slave leaving Jamaica for England after the passing of the Act, would, on arriving in Eng land become free ; but his children would still remain subject to the law —nay, the child of a slave born after the parent left Jamaica, but before the passing of this Act, would still not be free. The Noble and Learned Lord then adverted at some length to the decision of a Learned Judge, which condemned a slave who had been in England, and who consequently became free, to sla very again on returnin g to J tnaica, and spoke of the de cision as one which had given great dissatisfaction, nut on ly to the public, but to the bar generally. Such a wan b e i ng a natural horn subject of his Majesty, would have as good a right to sit in the other House of Parliament, tUT I nr in that House. as the Illustrious Tlnk. ►ingtnn) who was illustrious by his ~c tions, or the Illus riouv Duke near him, who was illustrious by the courtesy of that House. The Duke of CUMBERLAND rose to order, He had not said one word to call for such an att ark. The Lord CHANCELLOR said that the Illustrious Doke was nut of order, and in calling him to order was most disorderly. The Illustrious Duke said he had no• alluded to him (the Lord Chancellor), but he was allu• ding to the Illustrious Deice. The Duke of CUMBERLAND again rose. He had not said one word, not one single word on the subject. He had net alluded to the subject, and the Noble and Learned Lord had nn came whatever to address him. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, the Illustrious Duke was most disord-sly in calling him to order on the score of having addressed the Illustrious Duke. He had a right to address any one of their Lordships. He had exercised the right of addressing the Members of the other House for twenty years, and, please God, he world con tinue to exercise that right. He was contending that the . negro, if a free subject of his Majesty, had a right to sit in Parliament •••4f4 good a right to sit there Is any one of the Noble Lords opposite—as good a right as any of the Right Rev. Bishops, or as the Illustrious Duke—or as the other Noble Duke, who was illustrious by his conduct—to sit in that House, if it pleased his Majesty to confer on him lion Ours of the Peerage—...and as much right to sit in the other House as any man 'here, if any body of electors s-nt him to Parliament. Every one acquainted with the history of Parliament knew, in fact, that this was a cir cumstance which was likely to be tried. A Noble Lord, in the days of Schedule A, who was responsible to nobody but himself, talked of sending his black servant into Par liament; whether it was with the intention of trying the right of the negroes, or of bringing into Parliament men of that colour, he did not know ; but certainly such an intention was professed. How did that hear upon the argument? Thu Noble and Learned Lord proceeded to show that the man having been in England, was a proof that he was fit for freedom ; and he should have consi dered the clause moat imperfect, if it had omitted to pro vide for the case which had come under consideration. He denied that the clause would he retrospective. The Duke of WELLINGTON said, that as he proposed to amend the clause, it would give permanent freedom to such slaves as might in future come to England, while it would be likely to prevent the lawsuits which must arise from the clause having a retrospective operation. The Duke of RICHMOND said, the intention of the clause was—as it was conceived that a residence here made a man fit for freedom—to give it to such a man perma nently. Lord WYNFORD, with reference to the observation of the Noble and Learned Lord (the Lord Chancellor), must express a doubt whether the Noble and Learned Lord had a right to address any Noble Lord he pleased. With respect to the question before the Committee, be was of opinion that Lord Stowell's judgment was a most correct one, and he supported the amendment. The Earl of RIPON supported the clause, and said its justice was evident. He knew of a case of a slave who had been twenty years absent from the colonies, and bad been working in this country as a carpenter, enjoying all that time his freedom ; who, when he went back to the colony, was again made a slave of. He must say, to the credit of the owner, when he was informed of the circum stance, he ordered the man to be restored to freedom, and ti-ltled a pension for life on him. The clause em bodied the just principle en which this gentleman acted. Lord WYNFORD again repeated that that principle would give rise to endless lawsuits. The LORD CHANCELLOR explained that the free dom of all the persons in question would only begin "from and after the passing, of this Act." Tne Earl of ST VINCENT remarked, that after the passing of the Act, all the slaves who bad ever been in England would instantly be free, and the owners of them would even lose all compensation. Earl GREY said that all those who were now slaves, whatever might have been their previous condition, would be slaves up to the passing of this Act ; and all the children born of them till that time, would remain in that condition. From the passing of this Act certainly they would become free. After a few words from the Duke of Wellington, Lord Colville, the Duke of Rirhtnond, the Earl of Roslyn, and the Alatquis of Salishury, their Lordship; divided on the question, that the words proposed by the Duke of Wel lington to be left out, in order to insert the words, " Now are in England, or may be hereafter," stand part of the clause— Contents Not Contents l2 Majority The clause was then agreed to. Chu e 4 was proposed. . _ The Duke of W E LLINGTON objected to the clause altogether, as not only oarless, but as eminently calculated to produce 'he most twill mischiefs. The Eirl of RIPON defended the clause. Lord WYNFORD ohjerted to the clause. After a few wurds from Lords SUFFIELD and ST. VINCENT, the clause was agreed to; as were clauses 5, 6. 7, and 8. On clause 9 being. proposed. The Duke of WELLINGTON objected to it, and Wished thit proprietors, hiving two erates io one colony, might be enabled to transfer their slaves from the one to the other. The Duke of RICHMOND said, that it was well known that slaves had an excessive repugnance to being removed from one place to another—many cases had oc curred in which slaves, to whom the option bad been made, refused even to be transferred from an unhealthy place to a hralthy one. In point of fact, as it was, slaws were not compelled to go from one estate to another, and surely apprenticed negrots ought not to be put in a worse Posithin than the slaves. Lord WYNFORD also opposed the clause. _ Alter some further discussion, in which the Duke of Wellington, Vi , count St. Vincent, Lord Wyniord, the Duke of Richmond, the Earl of Rosslyn, tk. Marquis of Salisbury, the Earl of B (more, and Earl Grey partici pated, a modifi,d amendment was agreed to, and the clause was ordered to stand part of the all. Clauses 10, 11, 12, and 13 were, with some verbal amendments, agreed to. Clause 15 was, after some discussion, agreed to ; in the course of which the Duke of CUAIBERLAND com plained that 5001. per annum was too small a salary to obtain respectable magistrates, for the purpose of enforcing the provisions of the Bill. Tile Duke of RICHMOND, in reply, said it was not the intention of the Government to employ any persons in this situation who were connected with West India property, nor to suffer them to be dependant on the Colonial Legislature. If the salary should not be found sufficient, it wou ld b e requ i s i te to app l y to P arl i ament for anincrease. Claus:: 16 was then agreed to. On reading clause 17, Lord SUFFIELD moved an amendment, as the Act did not come into operation till August, 1834, that the power of flogging females should cease immediately on the passing of this Act. The Earl of RIPON thought the amendment unne cessary, and he would rather leave it to the feelings of the planters. If it were introduced, it would be requisite to have a set of penal clauses to enforce it. After some discussion, Lord SUFFIELD withdrew his amendment. The clause, with some verbal alterations, was agreed to. Clauses 18 and 19 were agreed to. The 20th and 21st clauses were agreed to. On the 22d clause being read, The Earl of RIPON proposed a proviso to the clause, that the apprentices should not be allowed to have arms, or serve in the militia, &c. The Duke of WELLINGTON objected to the clause altogether, as likely to be eminently mischievous. It was telling the slave, that at the end of that period they would be liable to enjoy all civil rights. It would frighten every white from the colonies who could leave them. He wished the whole clause to be omitted. Earl ST. VINCENT also opposed the clause. The Earl of RIPON explained that it was necessary to have the clause and the proviso, otherwise the apprentice would be liable to serve, according to the law at present, in the militia. Lord WYNFORD thought the clause ought to be owicted. . The Duke of WELLINGTON again protested most energetically against the whole clause. It was calculated to strike terror into all the inhabitants of the colonies. .The British Parliament ought not to make such a decla. ration as was contained in this clause.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, AuGusr 14. The SPEAKER resumed the chair at a qu trter-past five o'clock. Mr. Preston brought up certain returns from the India House, which were ordered to be laid on the table. A message from the L rds summoned the Speaker to the htr of the Upper House, to bar the Royal assent given by commission to several Bills. On the return of the Right Hon Gentleman he read to the House a ,list of the Bills that had been assented to by the Crown, but in so low a voice as to be inaudible in the gallery. Mr. FITZGERALD presented a petition from a Cap tain Matthew., a prisoner for debt in Dublin, in favour of the Bill for the Relief of Insolvent Debtors. BOROUGH OF CAMBRIDGE. Sir T. FREMANTLE rose to make the motion of which he bad given notice respecting the seat in that House for the borough of Cambridge. He could assure the House in general as well as the Hon. Member (Mr. Pryme) whom his motion individually concerned, that he entered upon the question with no feelings whatever of an invidious or personal nature; on the contrary, he felt great regret upon the subject; but having moved for certain papers which, now that they were produced, appeared to him to make out the case, he felt himself bound in duty to pursue the subject, and le ye it to the House to act as in its wisdom it might think fit.—(Here the Hon. Member was interrupted by the announcement of a message from the Lords. The message having been received, with certain Bills to which the Peers had given their assent, the messengers retired, and the Hon. Baronet proceeded with his speech.) He reallly thought the papers now before the House constituted a case against the Hon. Member for Cambridge. It must be within the recollection of all whom he had the honour to address that two sessions ago the whole system of the Bankruptcy Laws of the kingdom was entirely altered ; new courts were estaitlislied, with new Judges, new Commissioners, new Registrars, and a variety of new officers. The Bill had been brought down from the other House, and the Commons, ever anxious to provide against any increase in the undue influence of the Crown, had in troduced a clause under which he would maintain that the Hon. Member far Cambridge had forfeited his seat. By the 69th clause of the Bill it was enacted that no Judge, Comosissionci, Reghwar, Deputy Re g istrar. or Secretary of the Bankruptcy Courts, and that no official assignee, or other person whatever appointed by virtue of that Act, should, during the continuance of that office, be capable of being elected to, or of sitting as a Member of, that House. Another clause, the 14th, related to the Commissioners for certain districts in different parts of the country. The Judges who went the different circuits were to be directed by the Lord Chancellor to return to his Lordship the names of such barristers, solicitors, and attorneys as they should think fit and proper persons to act under the Bankrupt Act, and, these being approved by the Lori Chancellor, his Lordship should appoint in ro tation from the top of the list the different gentleuien to be Commissioners. After this came a provision in the Act that it should be lawful for the Lord Chancellor to remove any person from the list for any cause or causes which he might think proper; so that these Commis sioners were not only appointed by the Lord Chancellor, but they held their appointments at his will aml pleasure. Having stated the law upon the subject, hel r had only to show that the Hon. Member for Cambridge came within the provisions of the first of the claus , s which be had read, and it would hallow that he was a person inca pable of sitting as a Member of that House. He had moved for certain returns, and the first of those which had been laid on the table of that House was the commission appointing the Hon. Member for the Cambridge districts. The Judge on the circuit having returned to the Lord Chan cellor the list of fit and proper persons, the Lord Chancellor had directed his secretary to write to the barristers and solicitors who were on the list. Such a letter had been written to the Hon. Member for Cambridge in March. The Hon. Gentleman had acquiesced, and his appointment was acted upon with as little delay as possible. He (Sir T. FrenP.iitle) contended that the Hon. and Learned Membs:x was duly appointed to the office, which rendered it iNegal that he should continue to sit in that House. 'He (Sir T Fremantle) held in his hand a letter from an attorney which fully corroborated the fact. The attorney had written to requsst that a fist might he made out, and that the case might be directed to the Commission of which the Hon. Member was the head ; but at the same time he desired that Mr. Pryme might not be one of the Commis sioners that heard the case. He had been told at the B dikrupt Office that he must have Mr. Pryme. The attorney, therefore, called on the Honourable Member for Cambridge at his house, in order to eive him no tice of the motion, and the Honourable Gentleman sent him down word that be could not attend because he was obliged to go to a meeting at St. Ire, (Huntingdon). - Here the Hon. and Learned Gentleman was called upon publicly to act as Commissioner. He had also in his hand an affidavit made by a gentleman of the Court of Review. It appearei that great inconvenience bad been felt by the public in the Bankruptcy Court on account of the conduct of the Hun. Member. When the Commission met, the quorum not being present, it was found impos sible to do anything in the case, and application had been made to the Court of Review to appoint a day for the bankrupt to surrender. After a considerable delay the day was appointed, and the commission was gone into. The Hon. Member all this time never repudiated the office, and was actually in possession of it till the 6th of July, when he took the trouble to resign it. He con tended that the acceptance of the office, and being in the office, even without the performance of any duty, vacated the seat in Parliament. The Legislature had passed the clause to check the influence of the Crown, and he contended that such influence was complete when the office was accepted. In page 61 of Hatsel vol. 2, it was laid down that consenting to take office was within the meaning of the law that vacated the seat. Even the kissing of hands, on which new write were ordered, was deemed evidence of the acceptance of an appointment. There was no kissing of hands in the present case, but there was what was much stronger. He knew that there was the case of Mr. Thomas Wyndham, who had kissed hands on his appointment as Gmlanissioner of Customs, and yet held his seat in Parliament. This was a mistaken kiss for it turned out that the design of Sir Robert Wal pole was that be should be got rid of or got out of the way, by being sent to the Board of Customs in Scotland ; and Mr. Wyndham declared that he had kissed h Inds f.r a place in England, and would not go out of the kingdom. H e re, however, the consenting to accept was a complete acceptance under the Statute. It might be contended that the Hon. Member for Cambridge being now out of office, it was too late to take notice of the case. He should hope that this doctrine would never be laid down in that House—that a Member might accept an office incom patible with his Parliamentary duties, and might bold it, and escape, if he could contrive to resign before the blot was hit. He trusted that the House, setting aside all party feeling, would enter heartily into the case, and he should take the liberty of moving that a new writ be., George Prytne, Esq., who bad accepted office under the new Bankrupt /awe. The 'Wartime of CHANDOS seconded the motion. Mr. PRYME said that the Hon. Member seemed to assume that the ecceptance of what he was pleased to term office would force him to vacate his seat; hut lie (Mt. Prattle) contended slutt be might have acted under the fiat without occasioning any vacancy. The Hon. Member here proceeded to argue that the Act of William IV. diet not consider the office he had held as that or 1 Com missioner, inasmuch as its words were " acting as a Com missioner." wage a distinction between the Commis sioners in London and persons acting le Commissioners in the count, y. By the old laws Commissioner* were appointed under the Great Seal, and they were thus appointed under the Act of Will am the Fourth, whilst persons " acting as Crimmissionete" were appointed under the fiat of the Lord Chancellor. He contended, ther.fare, that ti e place which he had f eld did not come under the title of a Commissioner,. which would have obliged him to vacate his se.t. . Now the Commis sieners under the Act 6 George the Fourth, never had received any salary, and what they did receive was for feei from bankrupts' estates. nut leaving that part of the case, and ceming to that which related to the *weep tance of effice, he contended that the acting as a Coin missien-r was not intended to disqualify a person from sitting in Pariament. He had written a letter. to the Lord Ceaticellor, after hi. name had appeared in the fiat, in which he had stated to him that, understanding his Lord-hip intended to direct his name to be put oft the list of country Commissioners. he thought it letter, as a eloubt existed whether his acceptance of such office weuld disc qualify him from sitting in the House of Commons, at once to decline the office. This, ti on, surely could net be construed into a resignation of the office which had been offered him. He had done nothing under this Act, he had taken no fees, and had never officiated in the situation which had been off-red him. The ATTORNEY -GENERAL would contend that his Hon. and Learned Freud was not a Gemmieseioner within the meaning of this Act. The Honourable and Learned Gentleman having entered into a long legal argument upon the 7th and Bth clauses of the Act to prove that this was the cote, arid that no acceptance of office had taken place in the case of his Honourable and Learned Friend, observed that the situation referred to was of such a nature that the Lord Chencellor might erase the name of his Hon. and Learned F, 'end froze the list of the fiat of to-day on the followin g merning. Bitt his Hon. and Learned Friend hail never upon any ens oc casion acted in a manner to constitute an acceptance of the office, and he surely hail the hensfit of tl , e locus peni tentice till he should have taken the oath prescribed tiv the Act. Though his name had la en put with four others upon the fiat his name had never been placed upon a summons, so that nothing had actually been done which could call for the forfeiture of his seat. Mr. HERRIES said that the Hon. and Learned Attorney-General had argued that the Hon. and Learned Gentleman had not been appointed under the Act; but by returns laid before the House the name of Geer gin Pryme appeared amongst those appointed to office. Mr. Prytne had been appointed by his own will, and be held the office and resigned it only because he thought it might disqualify him from sitting in that House. The pr-sent only doubt was as to the fact of the Hon. Gentleman having accepted office; of the appointment there could be no doubt. It had been argued that the Hon. Gen tleman bad never acted under this Act, and that he had received no emolument under it. Now, whether any emolument hid been received or not, the Parlia mentary law was the same. But it had been said too that if the Hon. Gentleman had accepted his office he was not in possession of that office now. Under the circumstances it was clear that the Hon. Gentleman had vacated his seat, and be could not keep it without being re-elected. The SOLICITOR. GENERAL proceeded to argue that Mr. Pryme had never been in office, and if be had been in office, he would not thereby have forfeited his seat. Mr. Pryme, he contended, was not a Commissioner within the meaning of the Act. Now one set of Com missioners was appointed under the Crown with salaries of 1,500/. a-year each, and they were called upon to devote themselves to the public businass. Those persons were disqualified from sitting in that House. There was another set of Commissionere, who were not appointed by the Crown, who were recommended by the Judges, whose names were put upon a writ by the Lord Chancellor, who issued his fiat accordingly. These Corn missioners were paid by small fees out of the estates of bankrupts, and he maintained that the Act of Parlia ment did not apply in this case. The Hon. and Learned C•eatnenee is.see e rutuucd hie 1. 5 .1 length, observed that an officer of this Courtemeee-efene cessity be appointed by his own consent. Mr. Pryme had not resigned office, because, when it was tendered to him, he at once said, " I will not accept it, and some other Judge must be appointed." Mr. HARVEY would oppose the motion of the Hon. Baronet, though he should do soon different grounds from those tak nby the Hon. and Learned Gentleman. He was neither a Commissioner nor an officer under the Act, and therefore could not vacate his seat. He was ne t at all appointed under this Act. His former office was merely continued to him, and this Act only regulated the mode of appointment. Mr. HARDY contended that Mr. Pryme was to all intents and purposes a Commissioner under this Act from the moment the fiat issued, the fiat having, in fact, all the authority of a commission under the Great Seal. Mr. AGLIONBY thought he could not be considered a Commissioner under the particular clause. Mr. HA LCOMB said the clause was a penal one, and therefore ought to be interpreted strictly. Sir T. FREMANTLE regretted that so many com mon law lawyers took a part in the discussion. Mr. Speaker Ouslow said that common law lawyers knew little of Parliamentary law, and if one of them should ever be appointed to the Chair the authority and dignity of the House of Commons would be at an end. The motion was negatived without a division. SUPPLY —MISCELLANEOUS ESTIMATES. Mr. S. RICE moved the order of the day fur the House going into a Committee of Supply. On the question that the Speaker do leave the Chair, Mr. HU.%IE said the S ilicitor-General yesterday ex pressed a douht as to the number of persons imprisoned for selling cheap publications under the Stamp Act. He (hired that they ao.ounted to 300. He could now inform Vie Hon. and Learned Gentleman that they were upwards of 400. The number in the two last retains made to the •- Howie was 385. H e b e li eve d it was - the Stamp office, and not the Government, that directed thee prosecutions in many of the c 'ties. But why leave the law as ii w oi? Such proceedings were no credit to the Whigs. Hr must 84 the conduct of the Tories in this respect was far better than theirs, for one-half the number of such prose. cations were not instituted under the Tory Government. Looking at the professions they made before coming into office, and their actions since, they ought to be ashamed of them elves. It was true that etre'n g opinions were expressed in some of these cheap publications, but, con. shirring the excitement occasioned by the Reform Bill, some allowance should be made for this. The session should not be allowed to close without bringing in a Bill to repeal the Six Acts. Out of doors the strongest feelings were expressed because Ministers did not act up to their professions upon the subject when out of office. Lord ALT HORP said the greitest number of these prosecutions were not instituted under the Six Acts nor —by the Stamp-office, but under an Act of Geroge 11., which was brought into execution by common informers. The only way he saw to put a stop to such prosecutions, was by repealing the stamp duty on newspapers. What they opposed in the Six Acts, were the recognizatices and the punishment of seven years' transportation. His opinions upon these Acts were the same now as th,-y were then. Several of these Acts had expired, and he hoped ere long :lame means would be found of removing the present ground of complaint. Mr. HUME said papers were commonly handed about the streets, headed in these terms :—" Victims to the atrocious Six Acts. Effect of odious Whig tyranny." Mr. COBBETT said at present, in consequence of the odious Six Acts, no paper containing news could be published without a stamp, oftener than once a month. This, of course, increased the price of newsp +pets, arid gave rise to these cheap publications. The Act was made on purpose for him (Mr. Cobtiett). Now that the cause of the Act had ceased, why nut repeal it? It did him nu h irm, for he increased the price of his paper. The present session should not be allowed to pass without repe hog it. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said the Stamp-office had no more to do with the matter than the Attorney or S licitor-General. He believed all these prosecutions arose fi om the Act of George 11., alluded to by his Noble Friend. the en'e Areecto.veTr y h ted questionti the s, un d e r hlvi 7 h h e at d to put wa., whether i war. intended to stay TITHES.
