French wines ; hut 0 a /1 , 111 (lane this nn principle• wirlely different from our.; fer she had told France that she would not do tin unless France admitted American cotton on a better fiintine. The eons- ( pienee was. that a treaty was eancluded on that basis. That appeared to him to be nhvienaly tl e only wise and prudent course for a commercial nation to pursue ; and any state which did nt t pursue it. must eventually lose a portion of its com merce, and have the mortification of seem' it transfirred to other countries. It should he remembt red that we were at present in a great crisis. The whole wild was in rention—eagerly pursuing commercial advantages. He felt no alarm whatever on the subject. When he looked at the immense tesnurree of this country—when be saw that she was at least half a century in advance of other nations—wl en he contemplated the kill. the intim' try. and the perseverance of her people, he did not view all this foreign competition and riv try with the slightest alarm. But still it called upon Iris Majesty's Government to leak about them—not with jealous feelings. or far the pni.pose of imposing w,ntnn restrictions on the com merce of other countries—but in order to see wh -t fair advantages this country could obtain. Whv was this esp- daily important at the pet sent moment? The accent separation of Belgium finial Holland, had created a new kingdom. He did tint h.lieve that any treaty h d yet been concluded with Bsleium ; bet it was, evident. that if peace continued, Belgium was likely to be a great mantifecturing state, and in that respect our rival. I. was well known, however, that both America and France, by their Amhasaadore at Brussels, were en• de tvouring to make setisf.ctory commercial arransement with lit leiutn. What he was anxious for was that the British Government Mundd do the same. He did not wi-h f r any exclusive privil- pet ; hut, looking at the part we had tak n in securing the independence of Bal. gime, we had a right to expect that we should he treated at leas- on equal terms wit'. Fiance and America. Then there was a great change which war about to take place, if it had not already taken place in Portugal. We ought to take care that if a new Ginstituti -pal Goveinment were established in that country, we should enjev the same commercial advantages as other nations. America (and he by no means stated it with a disparaging inten tion) was one of the most enterprising commercial nations in the world, and was endeavouring to obtain advantages from Portugal which she could obtain only at the expense of this country. The same thing was going on at Naples. America bad pecuniary claims on Naples for tripoli itions in the time of Murat ; but, finding that the Neapolitan Government was not inclined or prepared to vay money, proffered to forego a part of the indemnity, provided certain commercial privileges were grunted tier, which she could not obtain exc• pt at the expense of this country. All these circumstances combined made him anxious to learn how his Majesty's Government were diepesed, and whether they might not he induced to aban don wit t on a former occasion they had declared was the policy which they would adopt—namely, to allow the corn merce of the world to take its free course, and to abstain from all commercial treaties and other restrictions upon trade. The Right Hon the Vice-President of the Beard of Trade had, on a recent occasion, said, there was reason to Lope that France was about to adopt a more liberal commercial policy, and had instanced the reduction of some of the duties on silk. That was a very small step indeed, and be (Mr. Robinson) confessed, that he could rot discover in the acts of the French Government any disposition to meet the liberal policy of the British Go vernment. He had before him the speech of the French Minister of Commerce, M Thiers, which the N ble Lord opposite had of course read ; and he owned that he could not discover in that speech any symptom of that ultra liberality in commercial matters which was so great a fa vourite in this country. The French were undoubtedly re moving restrictions on their own manufactures ; but there was nothing to show a disposition to receive our manu factures in return for their wine.. In America, the alteration in the Tariff was merely a eradual reduction of the duties to the minimum at which they would still afford protection to American manufactures. Now the argument in this country had been. that no difference should be made in the duties on foreign articles and on our own. He trusted that our G tverment would be alive, and feelingly alive, at the piesentjuricture, to Inking about them in all directions. He was qui e willing to see them make any rel nation in favour 0 , foreign commerce, provided that relaxation w is not mitt riot'. to British commerce. But he must protest against the viol. nt and visionary notion, that arty country could maintain her institutions and support her burdens under a system of commercial regulations which gave all the ad vantages to her neighbours, and retained none for herself. America bid abandoned many of her duties, because she required no revenue—but England reqeired a large rev.nue. He thought the lliaht Hen. the Vice President of the Board of Trade had lately manifested that he had some reason to suspect the extravagance of his form., opinions tin the e subjects, for the Right Hen. G ntlenian bed maintained that as long as we retained the West India Islands, we had a right to the more-poly of tl e home market for Rug as That was the principle for which ire (Mr. Robinstie) contended. He hop. d that we never should with-t tw our protection from the Coloni s, while they continued to take our manufacture.. The Hen. Member here I riefly recapittil Ated his statements, arid concluded by moving " that an humble Address be pre sented to his Majesty. praying that he would he ariciously pleased to give directions that there be laid before the House a copy of the Prussian T cif duties payable in that kingdom on the principal articles of importation from this country. anti specifying the alterations which bad •ak n place in those duties during the last ten yeirs." I Lord PAL MERST( IN rose, not to ohie t to the mo tion, but to m ke a few observations on what hail fallen from the Hon G ntteman. He could assure the Hon. Gentlentan and the House. that his Maiesty's Government h a d not h-en inattentive to the negotitthins which, during the last year and a half, Prusaialvid been cart ying on with all the German stet..., for the purpose of induc ing them to join in her scinene of commercial policy. It was perfectly true also, as the Hon. Gentleman had re marked, that te extend to the whole of Germany th duties paid in Prussia, would he attended wi h great in convenience to the cernmerce anti industry of this country. At the same time, he was not aware that England would have ant right to complain of the arrangements which in dependent States oils ht think proper to m ke on th atiliject. He did net think that on that grittind we had a right to interfere. Nor was he inclined to think that the consequenees to be apprehended from such arrangements would be ne fatal as the Hon. Member seemed to miter herd. Nothing could he more evident than that all our efforts should he directed not to the extinction. for any ides of that sort mint he hopeless, but to the reduction or the tariff, and even that reduction might demand sumo conceeeions on our part. If the Hetote looked to the whole conduct of Prussia and the German States, i• would be apparent that we had not so much reason to complain as might appear at first view, fur let it not he forgotten that the Prussian Government had wsh orawn a duty of ls. per lb. on wed, and it was troll known, that till within these few year. there h ai exis ea upon that article a duty that amounted to a prohisition. He thought also, that it would tie extremely unjust to cast any censure up. o foreign states merely became. they had not kept pace with this country in the great work 0 1 opening the trade of Europe Much allowance must be mole for the peculiar circumstances of those countries, and it was not to be overlooked that they were not as active in enforcing proltitiitairy reeulatiens as this country bad been until very lately. He had never been of the number of those who thought that protecting duties were advantageous; on the contrary, he had been, and still was, the advocate of free trade; hut if any continental ceuney adopted the resolution of entering upon fiscal war, anti imposed nigh duties uprn the coniniodities of this country, be should say that retaliation would not, in the end, be the wisest and the most enl rged policy fur England. It would certainly nut lie the most effectual way of inducing every country in such a supposed case to abandon its course of policy; it would be, in his judg ineli:„ the best course to let the nations of the continent discover, by the resuls of their own conduct, that their favour was not as fully necessary to the prosperity of England as the co mmercial liberality of this country, nor to the continent-1 States. In the sane degree as they refused to take our commodities. did they deprive themselves of England taking theirs. Until very lately all the public men in this country held the doc trine that protecting duties were beneficial, arid even to the present hour there were not wanting those who held them in high estimation ; it was, therefore, no matter of surprise that the nations of the continent shoutd, in tome in-dances, adopt our precepts rather than our example. It was. really very unfair to take for gran•ed that the Give. nmenis of Europe were open to censuie on the ground that had bean taken lip by the Hon. Member oPiiii'ite• I t could not have escaped the recol lection of the House, that in matters nt conainerci .1 in tercourse, France h a d i mitated the example of England; and to one rental kAle "'W e he wished to call the attention of the House —Ant alluded to the change that bad taken place in the duty ern raw silk Now that was a point upon which it wa s to to expel.ti cl that the manufacturers would have niterpesed tie most yen us , t such was obstacle. to the alteration of that dut y , and y the growing l i b er ality of the people, th et instead of impeding, they were anxious to prenatte and aia in that Itlsat step of their government The Hen. Member I ad Imlverted to the yule (f Bsl6ium, but really he thought that was a subject which ought to be let alone, for in the present state of that country, it would be inconsistent with the character and the acknowledged generosity of En land, after having ai.h.d in the establishment of the present order of things in Belgium. that ye should take advantage of the influence thus acquired to promote o ur own sel fi sh obj ec t s . A s t o P or t uga l, our oirnmerval relations with that country had not he-n changed by the political alterations which had recently cone forward there. and as the establishment of the claims of the Queen of Por tugal was r ode ed complete, we need lie under no apprehen sion that our commerci intereout. with that nation would be played upon a worse footing than h e r e tofore, He had only furthe, to obsi rve, that there did not exist, on the I watt of the Government, the sl.ghtest intention of aban doning the principl.B of tr.de upon which they had hitherto acted, nr the doctrines which they had always professed. He wished sincerely that the words protec•- ing .uties" might he erased from all their proceedings, for all interference with the direction of industry or capital. was but a disturbance of the te.vantageous operation of both. Nothing was more common for Hon. Members in th a t House, and for persons elsewhere, than to say that, however excellent the principles of free trade might be in the abstract, and how. ver well fitted for practical work tog in a new state, yet, that in the artificial condition of society in which we were now placed, and with our present load of debt and taxation, it wool i be, to the list degree, preposterous to to k of our adopting the principles of free trade. That argument amounts to saying, that because we had hoidens of one kind to hear, we must further dis a bl e ourselves from enilurim; those burdens by shack ! ng cur industry, and by interfering with the advanta geous and beneficial employment of carit rl. He had now Illy to add, that he should not object to the mclion of the Hon M. mber for Worcester. Culotta 1 ORRENS s.id, that Ministers professed to be discipl-s of Mr. Husk as•m, but they abandoned alto gether the principles of reciprocity, admitting that they were not pr.-paced to retali ice on those states, who might meet our commodities with the imposition of hi g h duties, and to that extent he differed from the N••ble Lord. Mr. Alderman THOMI-SON thought t at this coun try would do well to itnit .te tie United States of America, and require concessions in return for every commercial advantage granted by us. Mr. ROBINSON briefly replied, and the motion was agreed to. - On the motion of Mr. R. WALLACE, a return was ordered, with various minute particulars, of the several persons employed in the Post-offices of London, Dublin, and Edinhingh. Mr. BISH then addressed the House, but was wholly inaudible. He was understood to conclude with the fol lowing motion :—" That a Select Committee be appointed to inquire into the number of forged notes, with the amount of each ; of all notes purporting to be of the Bank of England, which have been tendered at the Bank tor payment, since the date of the last Charter, or during the 21 years, or of the circulation of .s hich the Governor and Company of the Bank of England have obtained in forma,ion ; what proportion of such notes, if any, have been paid by the Bank, and what loss has accrued to the public on account thereof; what prosecutions have been instituted by the Bank on account of such forgeries, and the result of such prosecutions, as to the number of persons who have sufficed the extreme penalty of the law, or have been otherwise punished or acquitted ? Whether any, and what steps have been taken by the Bank to render difficult the execution of such forgeries, and to protect the public against their circulation ? Also, to consider the most effectual mode of preventing such forgeries in future, and to adopt, if possible, some means of ascertaining the genuineness of such notes as may hereafter be issued by the Bank of England, or purporting to be so issued, for as it is now proposed to make such notes a legal tender, it is therefore of the utmost cone quence to the public at large, that facilil be given to them to ascertain whether such notes be genuine." Mr. HUME ,econded the motion chiefly on the ground that the hold. is of forced notes were the losers by them. Mr. Alderman THONIPSON said, that it appeared to him that the lion. Al.-ether for Alidillessx had given many excellent arguments why the motion before the House should not be agreed to. The information sought for would do no good to the public, aid would only encourage iialiviouals who %ere engaged in the practice of forging not a. Mr. WARBURTON thnueht that the hest note+ that could be produced were tho-e produced under that Quo. mittee of which Mr. Gilbeit Davies and SIT W. Congreve were M mhers. They were almost inimitable, and )et the Bank engraver produced, a we-lc after, another note nearly like the o he 1, that ordinary persona could not see tl.e difference. The notes we had then, at present, were the very best that could be possibly produced. sti.l '.et there was not any thing like complete security in them. It was, however, with them that payments were to lie made, and tvi , h them debtors and creditors must be sati-6ed. It no better note could be produced, and I e thoueht none better could, the tifrct would be that there would be an many foigetie , , and the pubs c would be liable to be sit frequently deceived, that the whole scheme of making bnk notes a 1 -gal tender would Ili.- a na'ural death. Mr. WILKS said a few words in support, as we under s ood, or the motion. Mr. BISH then ron.ented en withdraw his motion. SINECURES. Mr. HUME said that circumstances had made him alttr his original intention with r.spect to t' e sinecures held by L-rd Melville as Privy Seal of Scotland, and Mr Dund ,s, Keeper of the Signet. He would move an num le address to his Alajes.y, to he pleased to erd. r an .I,quiry into these and other sinecures. In doing this he was only fohowing up a plinciple I itely agreed to by teat House and by Government. The Hon. Member then stated several allowances in the Cou is of the King's Bench, Exile quer, and Admiralty, granted by Lord M..n•ti Id, who, he c , ntended, had no right to make such a, point ments. He egged - o call the attention o , the House to the Clerk of tie Pat liarn• nts, who, in five years, bail received 29,000/. and upward. Now. it Government had die right to regulate one sinecure it had the power to regulate the whole of them. If it had not, he could not tind.-rstand how it was that Lord Ellenberough's clerk had in one year 7,001)1 , and in another 6 0001. ; and it Government bad the power to reduce this sinecure 14) 1,01)01., he did not see any rea.-on why it should not t Are the whole of it away. There were two-other sinecures of which he had spoken on a former occasion, and to which he again would call the attention of the House. He meant the two Chief Justices of Eyre, in Scotland. Now those two sinecures, since their commencement, interest, :nil cr m pound interest brill: , calculated, had cost the public 49,0001. There were two other sinecures that deserved pat tiro ar notice; the first was the storekeeper of Dublin, 4.1151. a year ; and the sec. , nd tho craner and wha finger of the same city. Lord G. Seymour, who had 1.200!. a year, without any patent showing how or when foie. Then ti ere was the Keeper of the Great Seal, formerly 2,000/ a year, but now reduced to 991/. ; and the Keep r of the P. ivy Se..l, Lord Melville, formerly about 4,000/. a year. hut now reduced to 3,0001. This last appoint ment was made by his late Majesty when Prince R gent ; and he doubted whether he could tnake that appointment, at any rate he could not extend it beyond his natural life. There were two commissions made out ; the last was in 1824 when he was l'rince Regent, and when he had no right at all to make the appointment ; and even when George the Fourth it was a question whether he ought to extend the appointment beyond hie life-time, since the best Scottish Lawyers dottb ed whether the Sovereign could grant the custody of the Privy Seal beyond the term of his natural life. The Keeper of toe Signet, held by Mr. Dlndd9, was anotrer lite appointment by the Crown of 2,7991., and out of that 1,000/, was granted to Lord Mel ville. The Register of Stozins was held by the s ame indi vidual, and amounted to 5,000/ , a year . Pat h a uteur had made reductions in the emoluments of many sinecure offices, and the same Parliament had the power of doing away with them altogether if they thought fit ; and he was quite sur prised that Government had so long delayed putting an end to them. 'the Hon. Gentleman then reterred to the Sine cure offices of the Governor of the Scotch Mint, the Cl. rk of the Hanaper, and various others, which amounted to such an inimeme sum in the aggregate, that he could not think the House would hesitate in passing the address. The Hon. Alemb-r concluded by reading his motion, which was, " That, in accordance with the resolutions of this House, an humble address be presented to his Ma jesty, that he will be pleased to direct an inquiry to be made into every existing sinecure office, or office ex-cuter by deputy wholly or in patt, by whatever tenure held, with the view of abolishing the salaries and einoluniente of all those where public services have not been performed to deserve the same, and warrant their continuance or mortification." Mr. WARBURTON seconded it. Lord ALTHORP objetved to the address thus iramed, as involving a principle which he bad repeatedly itep e c,ited—tliat of interfering with vested right., and no fresh arguments had been brought forward to alter his (Lord A.'.) 1?. hog on the subject. NOthimg could justity the Hou‘e in taking places away from persons now in pm's"' stun of them, whatever might he dune to prevent any auc ""ing person fruit enjoying them. The emoluments of some plac e s had been undoubtedly i re d uce d, but in th e pres e nt case h e t h oug ht tbac the edvirotagee to be derived were not commensurate with ihe evil - and in. justice which would be done to indiv . i oals. He wo quite awar e , h owe ver, of the general feeling entertained against sinecures, and he was perfectly ready to agree to any motion which should discontinue them be yond the present possessors, but he must again protest against any infringement on vested rights. As to the expression of holding place during pleasure, whatever it might appear to mean on the face of it, it virtually entitled the possessor of such place to hold it during hie life, except in very few cases, which exceptions had already been attended to by Parliament. With respect to Lord Melville's office, Hon. Gentlemen should call to mind, that however different that Noble Lord's political principles might be to theits, and to those held by the present Mini. stem yet that he had performed under another Admini stration considerable public eel vices, and was, therefore, entitled to his reward ; and had he not this office, he must have had a penai.in of some sort. A man who has performed publie services, whatever his political creed, was entitled to pub is reward. Lord Melville's office was not, therefore, an office for which no public service had been done. H e (Lord \.) must, therefore, object to the motion as it r oo d ; if, h owever , t h e H o n. Gentleman wished tor infor ma ti on on thi s p o i n t, h e should be most 'Tatty to lay it b e f ore t h e H ouse , and for this purpose he should move, as an amendment on the Hon Gentlema n ' . motion—" Th.t a n h um bl e Addr e ss lie made to his Ma jetty, that it might please him .0 direct that there he pre pat ed, for the purpose of being laid be ore the House a return, explaining the nature and extent of all emoluments derivable from sinecure offices in the United Kingdom." The amendment being put, Mr. COBBETT would not vote for the original question, much less for the amendment. What he wanted was, to have sinecures done sw y with, without delay of any description. Out of 658 Members of that House, there were a full halt who were pledged, at any rate, to the utter abolition of ad sinecures; and now was come the test of their sincerity. As to saying the House hat no power to do it, such an idea was perfectly absurd. If the House had to pay these sinerurists out of their own pockets, they wiitai soon find out whether they had power or nor. But here was an excellent occasion on which to see of what staff the " Reformed House" was made. They had considerably sh 'ken their on credit with the people by rescinding the malt tax ; let them add to this a refusal to do away with sinecwen, and their character was gone, completely and for ever. Talk of their not having power to do this and that ; why they had power to do anything and every bing. They had the power sufficient--for it was they, and they alone, who did these things. It was worse than absurd to at tempt to lay the b'ame on their agents. They had power, he repeated, to thrust no less than one thousand pers-ns into the gaols, within a very short period, for °Truces ag ,inst their Excise laws—they had power enough to ificarcerwe one poor wretch, and fine him 100/. for smuggling a gallon of hi n ly--(A laugh)—they had tl e power of collecting fifty-four millions of sovereigns every year out of the pockets of the people—they had power to do a I this, y. t some of them talked of having no power to cut off George Rose's sinecures ; a man who, with his family, had touched no less than 300 0001. principal money—public nomey. Talk of having no power ! They had had power enough to do a vast deal of evil, and he hoped that they would soon begin to exercise their power another way—it was time. Lord J. RUSSELL said there was no doubt as to the power of the House. The question was, whether, by complying with the motion of the Hon. Member, they would be making a good use of it. He (Lord J. Russeil) thought not; but that. on the contrary, they would be doing an act of great injustice to individuals. He would beg the House to remember, that in this matter Govern ment were swayed by no personal motives —(Hear, hear.) On the contrary, the offices moved against now and on former occasions had all been conterred on the possessors by a Government politically hostile to the present Adonis nitration. He could assure the House, however, that though a feeling of principle induced Ministers to defend the present possessors of these offices in what they con sidered their just rights. yet good care would be taken to prevent any further sinecure abuses, to effect every possible reduction, and to consult the best interests of the people in every respect. Mr. RU f HVEN thought that, more particularly with reference to Lord Melville, what public services had been dine by these sinecurists had been amply repaid by their salaries, Sze... uri g the period of those services. Lod ALTHORP said that the only difference between him arid ihr Hon. Alemberfor Dlid.ilea•a was one of degree. Afttr a ew word. from Mi. WILKS, Mr. AGLIONBY thought that the Hon. Member for Middlesex would do his duty be , tt-r to his count: it he we'e to withdraw his moti n He (Jr. A.), however, wir.hed w defend himself against h.ing thought to defend sinecure, _ _ 111 r. G. SINCLAIR would vote for the motion of the N. le Lord, although he could not but re,„ret that the expressions which the Noble Lord had made use regarding the Hon. Meinbe, for Middlesex, who was the last man in the House to filch popularity, as he had enough all vatly. Alter a few wo , da from Mr. HUME, the gallery was clear.d tor a division, but none took place, the Hon. Member having consented to wi'hdraw his m rion.

Mr. DLLilkFt orili;;l47.sed by this Bill to suspend all actions at present pending on claims of this nature, until the end of the next session of Parliawent. He then moved for leave to bring in " A Bill to amend an Art passed in the last session of the last P rliament, intituled, An Act for shortening the time required in claims of Moth's Decimundi, or exemption from or discharge of Tithes.'" Lord ALTHORP said, that this was a subject of great importance, and lie wished to explain the circumstances under which the Bill of last session had pas sed. That Bid had origina , ed in the other House of Parliament, and originally there was a clause in it which 'United the period within which clergymen could bring actions as to modules of 60 years statiding to three years. When the 11111 was brought down to this House, an objection was brought to the period of three years, which had since then been found valid, and au amendment was carried which limited the action to the commencement of next session. The Bill was then sent back to the other House, where o.ucod.n• n 0 wa,, ...a. on t.t,e amendment of that oneH ou v y e .. ( r t , h ea and tuis;ee Billof C w o a t s n m i ) a . , i state pnagt.trhde. o n ug e t it it ist t e o nc iet, for 60 y e ars was done by that Bill was, that a modu s , t h en i n exist wohtiieccht io l n iad b,.i b n e g e n b r i should be a actions A lth t t o t ' w n i e t e h ' ou t an a d ny good mocha. It certainly did take from the clergy a pried, ge which they had beyond others, namely, that of objecting to a matter tviich had been consi dered as settled for sixty years.--( Hear, hear.) He (Lord Althorp) admitted that he could not have believed that the number of actions brought, in conse quence of this Bill, would have been so great. He be neve,' they amounted to several thousands, and their effect was most detrimental. Alany of the actions he h ad reason to think were fictitious, and withou t any solid basis ; they were not, however, brought from any litigious feeling, but merely in order to keep up a right, if any should be ham(' hereafter to exist. He confessed that he was surprised, considering the spirit now abroad, they tidouo, have loi luwe I this course--a course which, he was afraid, might, from the itricati,di which it hid created, risk the exist ence of the Church itself.—(Hear, hear.) But tie ques tion now was, how to get rid of this state of things? and be admitted the difficulty of it. If the Bill of the Hun. Alember had been to set these actions aside altogether, be (Lord Althorp) would have considered it his duty to op. pose it; but the Hon. Member only mein, to postpone the actions till the end of next session, in tir , er that time might be given for the introduction of some measure tot the composition of tithes. He (Lord A.) thought it bet ter not to object to the introduction of the B,i; but he would not pledge himself to support it in its alter stages, in case he should hereafter see reason to change his pinion upon the subject. The Bill was then brought in and read a first time, and was oroered to be read a second time tin 111 , indiy next. ROYAL MARRIAGE ACT. Co'owl WILLIAMS pus.puned motion for leave to bring is a Lill to repeal the Act of 12 Gto. 111. c. 11, called "An Act for"the better regulating the future Mir riages of the Royal Family." Sir HARRY VERNEY moved " an Address, pray ing that his Majes►y will be pleased to give directions to the Commissioners of the Woods and Forests, and the Board of Works, to carry into effect certain alterations and improvements in the Buildings of the House of Commons duringtherecess." Lord AL rHORP would oppose the motion. He did not think that the changes proposed would increase the convenience of the House ; and be had been informed it would cost as much as a new House of Commons. . __ An How. MEMBER said that perhaps the Hon. Baro net was not aware of the expense of the alterations pro posed. The Hon. Baronet proposed that a corridor should he erected, but in order to effect the purpose the Vote Office, and all the other offices about the House, would require to be taken down. The Hon. Baronet then withdrew his motion. FOREIGN ENLISTMENT ACT. The Bill for the Repeal of the Foreign Enlistment Act was read a third time and passed. TITHES (IRELAND) BILL. This Bill wag committed pro prma, and ordered to be further considered on Saturday next. SPIRIT LICENSES (IRELAND) BILL. Mr. Sergeant PERRIN moved the third reading of this B Mr. RUTEIVEN moved, as an amendment, that twelve o'clock should he inserted instead of eleven, as the hour at which beer ahopy .hmild b. closed.

The nisi) p of HEREFORD said it was very incon venient that the Bill should then be read x third time; for, no notice having been given, he Was totally unprepared to argue the subject. On the suggestion of Lott! WYNFORD, Monday next was fixed ior the third reading. On the motion of the Marquis of WESTMEATH, th e Irish Infirmaries Bill was resit a third time and passed. Lind TEYNHAM pre.ented a petition from St. Swint ford, in the county of Mayo, in favour of the Grand Jury (Ireland) Bill. HUSH GRAND JURY BILL. ',lerlail: did dasit out of Lord MELBOURNE, in moving the second reading of this Bill, th ught it would be min, cessary to detain their Lordships long, considering that the Bill had been so touch discussed. It would be unnecessary to sta'e at any I.ngth the manner in which the present system had grown in Leland . The expenses of public works, road expenses, &c., were provided for by presentment to the Grand Jury. The m •de was the presentment of a specific sum of money to two or more persons who were inte rested in the performance of the wink, which was liable to he called in question by a fre- holder ' by traverse. This presentment, until the recent Acts upon the subject, was grounded entirely upon affidavit. After the various discussions their Lordships had had on the subject, it wis unnecessary for him to go into the details or the measure. The Noble Lord then stated the principal provisions of the Bill, which were repeatedly before the public last week, during the discussion of the Bill in the Commons, and moved that the Bill be read a second time. The Lari or veicaila.osli said he did not rise to ( moos.. ,he motion of the Noble Viscount, hut he could not allow that the measure was necessary in consequence of the evils of the present system, for many improvements had tak , n place of late years, not in the law, but in conse quence of the nun al and honest actions and intentions of the gentry of the country. He admi' ted its necessity, be c muse the penve had so much de ired it, and had petitioned Parii..m.nt so often on it, and because so many dif ferent Governments had given pledges upon the subject. While he w is ready to admit that improvem-ntsgsvmerie necessary, he could not but lament that his '.Majesty's it - necessary to persevere in that Bill. The niters had at this late period of the »ration, th h ou e g made the oinion of the session, but because it was contrary f t Ireland. p It was the whole body of the repre-entarives o that statement was not on account of tolriee7a7e period of a curious fact that those ' all agreed in re differing most widely in "Pig :(') with•traw the Bill commending his Majesty's Ministers evident that Ministers fur the present session.

If bound he felt loniseto st ,te, r►otwithstanding he Bull, as deference to the that had been said against i 't that P it could not work all well, and in recommending Ministers not to persevere it enacted, that instead of - o f those who thought it ought nut b opinions to e pushed forward at present . It appeared to him that the Bill the levies he ng made as at present, tl.e grand jury would contained lour excellent features ; be precluded, after the passing of the Bill, from issuing any s oots that had not been previously agreed to by a meeting of w ith the measinurlei Magistrates and rate payers ; it also assueiated with the Magistrates a certain number of individuals called rate payers, which bad not hitherto been the cue, in the third place it appointed surveyers ; and, fourthly, it made it ne cessary that all sums to be levied and all presentments granted should be properly approved of. He was wil ling to admit that all these principles were good. He bad no objection to the principles of these features of the Bill, but he doubted whether they had been so arranged as that, though the principle was good, they might be combined to make the Bill a measure that would work well in the country, but he hoped the Bill would be re medied in Committee. After a few words from the Marquis of WESTMEATH, Lord PLUNICET, and Lord MELBOURNE, the Bill was read a second time and ordered to be committed to-morrow. ENGLAND.

Ou the motion of Lord SHAFTESBURY, the time for affixing signatures to the Protest against the Scotch Burghs Bill was extended until to-morrow (this day). COLLECTION OF TITHE ARREARS. The Bishop of CHICHESTER availed himself of the opportunity of presenting a petition (the nature of which, owing to some confusion in the House, we were una ble to comprehend) to refer to a report of certain pro ceedings of the other House of Parliament last evening, from which it appeared that the whole body of the clergy in general, and the order to which he belonged in particular, had been made the object of unfounded and un. merited attack. It was stated by an Hon. Member, and the statement was corroborated by another Hon. Member, that several thousand actions, between seven and eight thousand he believed, had lately been brought in the Court of Exchequer by clergymen for the recovery of tithes, under a clanse in what was generally known as Lord Tenterden's Act. Now he (the Bishop of Chichester) felt it his duty in the strongest terms to deny, as far as his knowledge went, the ccrrectness of that statement. In some tew cases it [night have been found necessary to proceed by action, but that actions to the amount of several thousands had been commenced he could not think possible. At all events, he had never heard that such bad been the case ; and his principal object in alluding to the statement at all was to correct, as far as he was able, the misimpression it was likely to excite in the public mind. But, tint content with a general charge against the clergy, a special one bad been made against the order to which he belonged. It was stated in unequivocal terms that the clergy who had so commenced suits for the recovery of their arrears had done so in consequence of a unanimous recommendation of the bishops, agreed to at a general but secret mee ing of their body. Now, if he was unable to give a decided and posi tive contradiction to tree general charge against the clergy, be was not so situated with regard to the particular charge against the bench of bishops. He did most positisely assert that at no meeting of the bishops at which he was present—and r many months past no meeting had taken placeat which he was not pres-nt—was there a single word said, much less any unanimous recommendation made, with reference to the line of conduct which the clergy should pursue in the collection of their arrears.—(Hear, hear.) As to the bishops holding a secr.t meeting of their body, he would only say that at none of their meetings had any business been transacted which might not, with perfect safety to their characters, be publicly posted at Charing-cross. The Bishop of LONDON thought the Episcopal Bench had great re .son to complain of the kind of clamour raised against them on the present occasion, more especially as he was prepared to assert that the charges brought against them were totally and entirely without foundation._ (Hear, hear.) It had been said that many thousand suits had been commenced in the Court of Exchequer for the recovery of tithe arrears. If such was the fact, it was the first he had ever heard of it, and he confessed the in.orma don came upon him altogether by surprise. That some few actions might have been commenced was probable, al though he had no knowledge of the fact; but that their number could amount to seven or eight thousand, as had been stated, was, he asserted, wholly improbable. Indeed the only way he could account for the statement was that in 800 e parishes, in order to obviate some technical objections, it might be necessary to commence suits against two or three thousand periwig, with a view to the recovery of arrears in two or three cases, and thus the statement that seven or eight thousand suits had been commenced might be easily accounted for. By Lord Tenterden's Act a specific time was given to the clergy for the collection of their modus of tithe, an I as that time was newt) expired, it was not to be wondered at that tl ey should adopt, in some cases, where there was no prospect of obtaining their rigs is by fair means, the most summary process which the law provided. With respect to the charge that the Bench of Bishops had at a seer. t m eting come to a determination of recommending their clergy to pro,ecute their claims, he had only to state that it was en tirely groundless. He had at ended every meeting of Bi shops for some time past, and had never heard one word sail on the suhject. Whether any individual Bishop had recommended his clergy to adopt such a course he could not say. but as tar as he was himself concerned, he denied having done so. At the same time, however, he was free to confess, if one of his clergy came to him and asked what course he should adopt to recover certain rights of the Church then lying dormant, and likely to be altogether la.t, in default of a proper prosecution of the claim within a limited period, he would, without the slightest hesitation, have recommended him to avail himself of the most urnmary process the law allowed.—(Hear.) COLONIAL SLAVERY BILL. On the motion of the Earl of RIPON the House then went into Committee on this Bill. On the 33d clause, relating to the compensation of twenty millions, being proposed, Lord ELLENBOROUGH suggested that it would be much better to grant p rpetual annuities to the plant e rs as c•inip.nsation fur the loss of their slave labour, instead of allowing them sums of money. The Earl nt RIPON admitted that such a course might be found to act well in a few cases, but doubted much if it would prove generally satisfactory. The Committee having proceeded to the 334 clause regula log the distribution of the compensation grant, The Duke of WELLINGTON objected to the entire clause, and moved an amendment providing for the distri bution of the grant upon a different principle. He eon tended that under the distribution provided by the Bill as it stood, an undue advantage would be given to the owners or the slaves in Demerara as compared with those of Jamaica, and that the compensation ought to be distri buted according to the value of the slaves of the different colonies. The amendment which he should move, there fore, would provide that the compensation grant be divided into nineteen portions, to be appropriated by the Colonial Legislatures according to the value of the slaves in each colony, and not their number.—( This we under stood to be the effect of the Noble Duke's amendment.) The Earl of RIPON objected to the plan proposed by the amendment as unju t, and only calcu ated to create inconvenience and delay in the settlement of the question. Lind WYNFORD supported the amendment. The LORD CHANCELLOR said that the amendment embraced two points—first, a distribution according to the value and not the number of the blaves ; and the second, as to the manner of the distribution. He still al tiered to the propriety and fairness of the arrangement made by the Bill, and would contend that the distribution proposed by the amendment would be unjust as between the owners of sl Ives in Demerara and Jamaica. With re gard to the second point, the leaving the distribution to the tribunals of the colonies would be to bring the whole 6L-rl~._-_ ' ." frh. into dos courts .4 equh y s boon he was sery far from wishing to confer upon them, seeing that the worst ..f our equity tribunals at home were a perfect paradeie com pared to those of the colonies, into which if they once got, no lawyer, much less a suitor, coot.' a.tok a t oest r a. of a possibility of their ever coining out again. From this evil he desired to take refuge in the machinery of the Bill, which left the appropriation in the bands of the Commissioners, and which was not without precedent or example. Lord WYNFORD saw great danger to the rights of property attendant upon the institution i.f this novelty in legal tribunals for the settlement of questions in which those rights, as hitherto guaranteed by the law, were so deeply involved. He should therefore support the amendment. Lird ST. VINCENT said it was known that in De merara there was a I irger proportion of aged slaves anti a smaller proportion of younger ones than in the other colonies. In Jamaica the comparative number of young .laves, On the contrary, was in the proportion of sevt n to there. He thought t , ere were many circumstances en .erinz into the value of the slaves which would be best understood and considered by the tribunals of the co _ . this us w, II as a ll : Lod ELLZNBOROUGH thought the quest ffn purely a julicial and nut a political one. The on l y desire any a i a n ti s n u g ch a suite as to b e t t t i h e e p r ri their Lordships could have w as to make the most equita ble distribution of the money given for compensati on . I t lid certainly appear that the local Courts of Jus. i e e were unfit to administer j ustice in thi s cite, th e y w ere not tit to be left in exis t e nce at ail. But if th ey were e f fi cient ciPueersttrioibnralsufortht?hye a7djeuredic fur other purposes, he could not see why they should n o t super i n t e nd the dis ribution of their money ; and there fore be preferred the amendment of his Noble Friend, especially as it must be a great saving of expense. He could not-understand why the appointment o f t h e com. 4-40 pensation to each colony, and the sum to be 5110 ,9 each slaveowner, should proceed upon different O p t There were not only different classes of slaves , b e s e were young, while others were old and infirm: the compensation were to be apportioned by 08 0 :40' great inj us ti ce wou ld b e d one , f or hi t h e rto they b 4 0 .01% been considering the able-bodied, without at all ja at the oth e r c l asses of th e s l aves .

After some further Conversation between tbs WELLINGTON, Lord COLVILLE, Lord Ertfraos o~ u co i and the Marquis of SALISBURY, the Earl of ROO epi sented to the omission of ce rtai n w or d s in the clause. ,f 1 amendment was then negatived without a division' , the clause agreed to. tI The clauses from the 34th to the 44th were sr On the 45th clause being put, tM Lord ELLENBOROUGH w i s h e d t o know ho t!, , value of the slaves was to be ascertained?
