CHESTER, JUNE 16.—We have had two meet ings of the Bible Society and Church Aiis signal'', Association which took place on the 13th and 14th lasts., which went off Ivith unprecedent ed sUccess. At the latter Meeting, the Earl of ROCKSAVAGE was in the Chair. Mr. FoLLicrT, a very respectable inhabitant of this city, sap ported,both Meetings, and at the latter, deliver ed the•following speech, which was warmly re , • " My Lord, Ladies, and Gentlemen—Surrounded as I am by gentlemen of superior abilities, and who are well conversant in the business of this and similar meetings, I should probably have chosen the more.prudent part, had - I merely neconded the resolution' that the report new read be adopted, printed un• der the direction of the Committee. But, anxious as lam for the prosperity of this Institution, I must beg leave to trespass on your indulgence for a short time. I feel Myself greatly in dined to enter into the politics of Ilindost'cn, at least for the last seventy-four years, the period at wi n ch the British irnis commenced their operatio9 s in India in aid of the Nabob of Ar cot ; but, as this is a relig:ous assembly, I conceive that such ;s chscussicn would be indecorous in roe.; yet I am free to confess that Great Britain owes much in rectienpence to India; and how can it be more effectually performed than by sending to that country the Holy Scriptures ? indeed I wish it to be made a na tional concern, through the molluin of Parliament, not by coer cion and the sword, but by.reasoning,' gentleness, and by means of missionaries. The latest accounts we have received from • India of its population is one hundred and fifty millions,.pne hundred Millions of which. Ore under the British sceptre. lam greatly gratified by observing that a meeting had taken place, about three weeks since, in London, at which my respected friend, Mr. Wilberforce , was at the head, (and I 'consider it an honour to have that, keettleman for my acquaintance and cor respondent) to form a'Society for the moral and intellectual Im provement of the Natives of British India, to which I very sin cerely wish success. At the annual Meeting, in London, - Cif this Association, Lord Gambier declared that contributing to the good work in Which the Society was engaged afforded him more gratification than all the honours he had ever received, and would be his highest glory in this world, and would not desert him in another .' I have now to mention what I sincerely hope, for the honour of human nature, is exaggerated ; yet Mr. Ward's calculation of the Hindoos.who annually perish, the victims of a blind and cruel superstition, is as follows : Widows burnt alive on the funeral pile in Ilindostan 5000 Pilgrims perishing on the road and at sacred places - - 4000 Persons drowning themselves in the Ganges, or buried or _ _ burnt alive • bIX) Children innnolatad, including the daughter of the Raza- Pootas 500 Sick persons, whose death is has:cned on the banks of the Ganges Hon ible total of 10,690 Should the part I have taken in the me iitings of the Committee, and my Other exertions in this cause, preserve one female from the funeral pile, or save one infant feom destruction •in the Ganges, I shall be ap;ply rewarded. I am happy to learn that the. Missions in Africa and the East are prosperous, which will be detailed to you more at length by the gentlemen present. And I have to observe that the inhabitants of several of the islands in the South Seas, particularly those of the Sandwich Isles, have thrown away their idols and have embraced Chris tianity ; alio, that the king of Madagascar (an island some what 'larger than Great Britain), has recently written a letter, in treating that Missionaries may be sent thither from this coun try. In the supporti give to Bible Societies and. Church Mis sionary Associations, I have three powerful inducements. The first is a beTief that it is pleasing to Almighty God, from whom we all derive the blessings we enjoy here, and the hope of eter nal life. The second is, that they promote the present comfort and future happiness of our felow creatures, to whom we send the benefits of the Gospel. And the :hied, that it is highly gratifying to my own feelings." Mr. GOOCH presented a Report from.the Agricultural Committee, which was ordered .to be printed. Mr. CALCRAFT thought at thislaie period of the Session, as there would hardly be time to print the evidence, it might be desirable to print the report by itself. The SPEAKER said he would take measures for putting the Report in the hands bf :Members With all possible expedition. PARLIAMENTARY REFORM. Mr. WIIITBILEAD presented a Petition from the Parish of St. Pancras, prayin g for a Reform in Parliament, and the Restoration of the Queen to all her constitutional rights.—Or dered to lie on the table.. Sir G. CLERK obtained leave to bring in a Bill to vest in the hands of the Commissioners of the Navy for the titne being, the right and title to all estates and lands belonging to the naval service, for the administration thereof. He also. brought in a Bill for repealing part of the Act passed with regard to the pur chase of certain lands near Sheerness, tor the use of the naval service.—The Bill was read a first time. • . TOBACCO DUTIES. Mr. LUSHINGTON moved: the second reading of the To bacco Duties Bill. Lord BELGRAVEPpposed the Bill. Though he approved of the object of the measure, he 'thought the provisions of the Bill were bad, and must therefore oppose the second reading. Mr. LUSHINGTON expressed a hope that the Bill would be allowed to pass the second reading. In the Committee it could be modified, and clauses would be propos!d which he hoped would remove the objections now urged against it. A discussion of some length followed, in which Mr. BER NAL, Mr. W. SMITH, Mr. CURWEN, and Mr. C. CAtirERT, spoke in favour Of postponing the secondreading. Mr. BARING, Mr. H. BRIGHT, and Mr. Ilusxxssox, spoke in favour of the Bill, as' necessary to protect the fair trader. The last men tioned Member thought it would be desirable that the Bill should be amended and put into its best shape. If it should then be still objected to, it could stand over till the next Session, and this might be better than beginning again DE OV O. After a few remarks from Mr. HORHOUSE, Mr. LusitiN4- TON, did Sir J. NEWPORT, • Sir F. BURDETT moved that the Bill should be react a se cond time Kt thathlaysix-mixas. A new conversation followed, in which Mr. Bernal, Lofd Belgrave, Mr. H. Bright, Mr. Hobhoise, Mr. Huskisson, Lord A. Hamilton, Mr. Lushington, Mr. Caleraft, Mr. Baring, Mr. C. Calvert, and Sir F. Burdett participated. • The House divided— ' For the Motion . 75 For the Amendment - - • •- - Majority for the second reading - - -32 On the question that the Bill be committed, some further re marks were offered by Mr. H. Davis, Mr. Bernal, the Chan cellor of the Exchequer, General Gascoync, Mr. Hohhouse, Mr. 11. Bright, and. Lord Bel rave, after which the Bill was ordered to be committed to-morrow. Mr. LOcRIIIART presented a Petition from a person of the name of Joseph Pitt, pointing out the importance of giving every posisible encouragement to the industry of this country, *and protecting it against foreign competitions. _ Sir W. DE CRESPIGN Y hoped the Petition would be at tended to. Ordered to lie on the table. Lord A. HAMILTON presented a Petition from Glasgow, agaii , kft the Tobacco Ditties Bill.—Ordered to lie on the table. Lis Lordship presented a second Petition from Glasgow, complaining of certain recent alterations in the , txClie Laws.— Ordered to lie on the table. GRENFELL present(' a Petition from Penryn, in fa vour of the Bill for punishing cruelty to animals.—Ordered to lie on the table. Mr. C. CALVERT presented two Petitions from the Manu facturers and Retailers of Snuff, against the Tobacco Duties Bill.—Ordered to lie on the table. Lord N UGg NT gave notice, that early in the nest Session of Parliament he would move for leave to bring hi Bills for better securing the independence of Judges in the Island of Tobwro, and for better regulating the Criminal Courts in that LONDON BRIDGE. Mr. H. SUMNER, seeing an Hon. Alderman in his place, - iyho had served on the Committee appointed to - consider. of the means of improving the Navigation of the Thames, WlShed to ask him a question. lie understood it was the opinion of the Committee, that the inconvenience could only be removed by the total destruction of the present Bridge, and the erection of a new one. • Before this plan could be• carried into effect, it would be necessary that several houses should be pulled down, preparatory to the erection of a temporary bridge. On this sub ject, certain notices were necessary to prevent the defeat of the measure from a technical objection, founded on the Standing . Ord:rs of that House. He wished to know if the Hon. Alder man could take upon himself to state that the necessary notices had or would be given ? Mr. Alderman WOOD said, it was impossible for him 'to give the answer which the Hon. Gentleman could wish to re ceive, and' which he could wish to offer. There had been no time for the Corporation to determine en the propositiOn for erecting a new bridge since the Committee had come to their decision. Some of the Members of that House were of opinion that it would- be better-to build a new bridge than to attempt any repair of the old-one. -He had reason to hope the Corpora tion would be of the same opinion with the Committee of , that House, which he hoped would be the opinion of the House it self. He would do every thing in his power to promote the ob ject. in view, and to procure the •erection of a new bridge, as it was his opinion that there .was property 'enough to raise a suf ficient sum of money to meet the expense, without subjecting the country to any new impost. In the Committee, fifteen out of sixteen had been favourable.to the erectio n of a new bridge. HUSBANDRY HORSE TAX REPEAL BILL. Mr. CURWEN moved the Order of .the Day for the House going into a Committee upon the above Bill. He had to state. to the House that although the .11in. had met Ntith oppoSition in a previous stage, he had - learnt with the greatest satisfaction that that opposition would be no ton— ger continued. It had been exceedingly gratify ing to him, and he was sure it must be equally so . to the public, to witness the handsome manner in which the Noble Marquess opposite had acceded to, the opinion of the House. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER f(sit him self compelled to submit to the decision of a ma jority of the House. lk bad reserved his assent to the Bill at first, in order to aKertain that the majcrity really was in favour of its repeal ; and from what he had' heard since the debate took place, he had - 21 Q longer poytic.Abt *Am that subject. That being the case it was not for him to set up his individual opinion, notwithstanding the' i'espectable manner in which it was supported - against that of - a .substantial majority, and he should therefore •no longer oppose the repeal of the Bill. lie sincerely hoped that the measure would be found to afford that degree of .relief and to produce all those beneficial results, which the lion.. Mover atiticipated from it ; Antrif it did, he should never. regret having• given up the tax, although,, he, felt at present :that they were making. a very great sacrifice to the' general inte rests 'of the country by so doing. . Mr. Butc4 felt his thanks to be. dtie to his, Hon,Yrieud who had brOught forward this mea sure, although he could not say as much with re gard to some Gentlemen opposite, who had given it their Support.; They had voted for-all the es timates brought in by Ministers, and opposed every r proPositiOn . _ for reducing them; and it did appear somewhat inconsistent, if not unjust, for them .to turn round after voting the supplies, and' refuse the means of raising them. It appeared' that Ministers, according to their own declara tions; had brought,in their Estimates upon the lowest possible scale. Now, if this were the case, the consequence must be, that some new tax must be in the contemplation of the Right Hon. the Chancellor of the Exchequer to make up the deficiency. This would evidently render the "endeavour to , afford relief . by repealing the, tax quite abortive ; it would be only shifting the burthen from the shoulders of one class to those Of another, 'Who - Might be still less able to bear it. If he had been aware that such a course as' this was to have been pUrSued, however unusual' a thing it thight be, he should certainly have been found voting with Ministers for the continuation .of the tax. • ' ' The Marquis of LONDONDERRY was anxious to.l avow to the.llouse that had he not been absent, on account of indisposition, from the late discus sion upon this subject,. he should have .felt it his duty to have impressed in the strongest poisible manner his sense of the importance of the tax, and of its urgent necessity, in the present situa tion of the country. At the same time,. he must now fairly own, that the sentiments expressed by the House, together with the amount of the tax, and other considerations arising out of the pecu liar preSsure of the. existing distress upon the agricultural interests, had led him to. look at the loss of the tax with less regret or apprehension. To suppose, however, that the repeal would afford any. general substantial relief.to that inte rest, would be quite fallacious. But if it should ,be- considered as a matter of sympathy with their distress, and as an earnest of what the Le gislature were disposed to do for affording sub , . stantial relief, if it lay in. their poi er, he should be mainly. reconciled to the other disadvantages which might arise from it. It was by no means 'an event which had never occupied the attention of his Majesty's Government. He spoke in the' hearing of many Members of the Agricultural Committee, in which he had lately spent a large portion of his time, and they would . be aware that he had not unfrequentiv mentioned that a state of things might 'occur which . might induce• them to reconsider the subject, to see if proper grounds could be made out for the repeal of the taxi, It had, however, proceeded from that House before his Majesty could have an opportunity for that reconsideration. There was an earnest de sire on all sides, and in the Agricultural Com mittee he was sure that all parties had united in that desire, to afford what relief could be af forded consistently with the general welfare of the country. He hoped the country would receivc.the repeal of this tax as a pledge of that disposition. And if any relief would arise from it, tirxerds that most valuable class, the Agricul turists, it 'would be a great source ..of consolation for .parting with the benefits whiCh must have arisen from the continuation .of the tax. With respect to the inquiry of the .Roil. Member oppo site as to the intention of propoSitig any fresh tax in lieu of it, his Right lion. Friend:certainly had the power of exercising his discretiOn iu proposing any new tax to the House. However, he could no dotibt relieve the Hon. Member's anxiety upon that head, as this would undoubtedly be a boon totTn public,. inaccompanied by any thing which would be likely to counteract its effects. —(Hear, hear, hear !)—lle should make no fur ther observitions on the subject, as his Right :Hon. Friend had borne the brunt of the action, ' and would continue his attention to the progress of the Bill. He trusted that when his Right lion. Friend, in the next Session, should bring, forward his statements ()Nile economical arrange ments and exertions of the Government, that the House would bear in - mind that this tax had been given up from a revenue by no means too abund ant for the necessities of the State, and that with out any provision being made for the deficiency thereby created. MR. BARING expressed his hope, that after the repeal of this Tax, the Agriculturists would not turn round to claim other concessions, and 'to say-that nothing had been given, up to them.— (Hear, hear!)—llon. Members who -supported this repeal•ought to have shew.n their disposition. to relieve the general distress of the country, by supporting the various propositions of the lion. Member for Aberdeen, for reducing the oUn'ecesaary establishments which were kept up. It was only by general economy, and by an equal System of retrenchment, that that distress could be relieved. The Right Hon. Gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer had brought his de f eat upon himself, by too great boasting of the state of the finances yf the country. It was' his holding out the idea of a real Sinking Fund, ot 4,000,0001. when no such thing existed, that had' Coronet WOOD sal'', by the Bill, that only horse.; used for purpOieSof htisbandry were to be excepted from the'opetatiOn of 'the tax. Now re Were great numbers of very poor - krsons in Wales who gOt their livelihood by carrying ore froth the pits mouth with horses which were their only property. lie bertainly hoped that the 'ex ceptions would be'extended to them, as it Would be'relieving a very honest and induitrious class Of persons from a pressure which - was Very heavy Upon "them. Mr; S. WORTLEY said, that he had been pre vented from attending the House upon* the re cent discussions upon • this Bill, - but if he had been present he; should have most heartily given his vote in favour of the repeal. At the same time he did not think himself liable to the charge of inconsistency which had been made against those who voted for the Estimates and not for the tax. The Hon. Member for Aberdeen made his propositions to the House founded upon his own statements, which were contradicted by his Ma jesty's Ministers. Now here were two parties whose Statements were opposed to each other ; and he . (Mr. S. - Wortley) and his friends had been in the habit of - giving their confidence to Minis ters: This he took to be a very different case to the repeal of the Husbandry Horse Tak,. where every man exercised his own judgment as to its necessity or other Wise. • * • Lord Murci.a . did not know whether his Hon. Friend spoke for-himself only in the explanation which be had just given, or whether he spoke as the organ of any party or corporation. That ex planation was certainly fair as applicable to buthe could not see how it applied to other. Gentlemen around his• Hon. Friend, who bad said. that the exertions of the Hon. Member for Aber deen would be- productive of much good. If those Gentlemen had voted for the repositions -of that Hon.-Member in the early part:df the Session, instead of coining down now at the lat ter end of it to bestow a few Words of commen dation upon his efforts, they would have rendered him' the Means of doing still more OA than they had now - tongive him credit for: He did- not at ail agree with the Hon. Member for Taunton, that the . credit of the country would be"impaired by the taking ca of this tax because he was vpi lion that this reduction of half a million of rel 0-- nue would be productive of half a million of economy in the general expenditure. He should not be amongst those who would hereafter say, that this was no boon, and that nothing bleu granted to the -landed interests. He must, how ever, observe, that the agriculturist woulCon!y experience a-temporary benefit by the repeal of the tax. it would operate as a benefit towards him forfora Ofort period, 'until 'an equalization of the capital of the country should be krought about, and then it would act as a general:Ai:2i nution of the pressure upon the country; t. had, upon previous occasions, mentioned his d(-- • termination to bring forward the subject of re pealing another tax, which he should not now -be able to 'do substantially, and he should therefore decline it altogether for the Session. The landed interest could hot now complain that they were not represented in that House. And when'any future corruptions in the representation shbuld come to be reformed, he trusted that Parliament would bear in mind the repeal of the Husbandry Horse Tax, and the manner in which that repeal was accomplished. • In another Session, he wciuld pat it 'to the Hon. Members-who voted, for this Bill, whether something ou g ht n ot •to be done for the 'manufacturing interests. It was neces-; sary to do this in order to prove to thein that they were not less the objects of the care 'of Parliament than the' • agriculterists. With respect to that manufacture with which he wa-s particularly connected, he'- contended that it would be an act of policy ,to grant it some relief and protection. They Might not to abandon a manufacture which was so' an cient in the country, and which had beep so valued by their ancestors, to be the prey of every Chancellor of the Exchequer who might think proper to impose taxes upon it.' lie did not think they were much indebted to Alinisters . for the abandonment of this tax. • The' Right lion. Gentleman thought the sense of - the - House had not been decidedly ascertained by - the first divi sion. Now he was at a loss to know- by what 'Parliarhentary vroceeding the Riglit Hon. Gent. had since ascertained that sense to btrderideilly against the tax. Perhaps there •had been thime meetings or representations from great men: in 'power, by means of which it was very easy to conceive that the Right Hon. Gentleman Wa:.l.sa tisfied of the hopelessness of his cause. This would be the more apparent if they rooked at the composition of the majority and the minority upon the !ate decision.' HoWever he rejoiced extremely that the tax was to be repealed,' and he trusted' that in the ne'xt'S6ssinn 'something would be done to relieve the manufaCturi:ig in terests. • Mr. Gooon said, that the Noble Lord s!.e.rned to have appliod some of the remarks in 'the earlier parts of his speech to him in c.ohse quence of what he had said.of the actki . ty and industry of the Hon.
