IMPERLdL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF PEERS. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 30. ' Cobras. were finally heard relative to the Scotch A„ ... ..... . .. ppeal; Crawford v. Coutts, namely, the - LORD ADVOCATE of Scotland at .considerable length, in ieply ; ~after which the further. consideration of the mase was adjourned till Monday. ~ ... Lord Reuesceent (the Lord Chancellor, of Ire land), ‘the•Eail of DEART, one of - thO'lrishßepee. septatiee Peers, and the Earls of BRIAVALBANE, ; and. Dni.i.tousts, two of the . Scotch Peers, were sworn' and took their ,seats. , , - - . ~- Yhe .various Bills before' the House were forward ed jo their respedive stages.. 'On the question for •the second reading of the Clergy. Residence Bill being put, • ' Lord ;A UCKL A ND . rose, and lhortly put it to the consideration al the Right Retterenri Prelate near him, whether, for the sake of, shorteeing the term of the leading proviSion of the Bill, from two or three months to one, it w6uld, under all.the pre. sent circumstances, be expedient to - riSkrhe: fate of the Bill,- as, such an amendment in a Bill. of this peculiat: description, would, with a referetice to the COnstitutional Privileges of the other House, in all probability be fatal to it. The Bishop ?f $,91".. .O,M ' APii rose, and entered into the metits of the subjed at soate length ; he argued . ,,that the Bill in questiOni as connected with the general subjed which gave-rise to it, was one :of Con4iklerable'itiiportaece, and •as -it 'then present .ed, itself, .objedionabl . e, in - ,a . •great degree. The Rev. Prelate detailed' the leading provisions, and ' 'the effects of the-Statute of Hen. VIII. from which l ihei Clergy, under the present circumstances; he said, were liable toconsiderable hardships, and these hard_ !ships, not unfreqUeritlyfelhin the most conscientious 'of' - the clergy 3. ihose in a great degree. arose frOm ' the state of _the pirsOriage-houses in differene:Pa rishes, many of which . Were not irea habitable eon- dition. - To remedy, tlicse, he observed Bills were flotii time to time sent up to their Lordships from the other Hinise of Parliament, and in some instances, lie:described, at a period Of the , Session, when the merits of the questiee could not be fully discussed.:, His Lordship enuteerated . the dates.of'ilieee Bills, and, gave 4 history of their progress through htnh HOusei.. He expressed his . disapprobation of this tiAt'of proceeding. The Statute of Henry VIII. ' was one which required :much amendment, but he was adverse colts operations being counteracted by perennial Bills of Stispension. , He again- lamented that it ,should so arise that the general subjed could • not have been adeqoately discussed.; it carnebefore them at periods of the Session,, when the attendance was generally thin ; - . Mid 'sorely that in question was one of .:the highest. importance. If the resi dence of the Clergy was comietted-with' the .pradieal religion of the Country ; if the'pradical religion Of the Country was.couneated with its morals, and if the morals of the people were worthy the attention of ..thee; Legislature; then, unquestiOnably,, the sub. jet in, question was one of the highest importance. (..A . eiy V" --Thar! hear!) '' the - subjed was one of the most lieriotte nature., and, which, 'Would be deliberately:discussed . .. -His Lordship alluded to: the Bill in the.contemplation of. a very Learned Civi. ban, a, Member of the other House, who had con_ salted The Reverend, Beni.) on the occasion : this proceeding, lie :observed, was against his sense : he advised him to bring in the 'Bill on hiS'own ideas, and to trust to Parliamentary discussion for the rest. The Reverend PrelateS, he. observed, . were, at least, not all equally well versed itethe Statute lloOk. - - He - thought thei . Statute - ofHenry VIII. ehould be fairly amended ; but he had no , hesitation in 'deciding, : , were' he driven to the alter. • native either. of totallY abrogating the St'atute in question, or of suffering it to stand totally un -41e6r,;(1i in favour of the latter. Much had been said about the OcceSsity ofeuehtilii',originating in thelither'llouse. .He.saw no reason why a Bill to the i4a, to which he had alluded, should not he introduced in that House ; anti lie thoUght it shoeld : be. generally known, that the Reverend , Prelates were. riot in fai , olic of the systemrof going on with such .Bills -as the present, from year, to. year. : . The LORD'cil ANC ELLUR also took a view ; `of iiie Obj;:et - 4t some length. He obServed that with a reference-to the question regularly before the House, he saw no. reason why the, Bill should not be sale' eid to -,go to'a Committee, lie seemed, to -argue generally in favour of the Bill, as, .under the, existing circumstances of the ease, a measure of a desirable torture... He hao,_itt his judicial capacity, while presiding in one of the Courts below, oppor. ,tunities: of observing, in many cases, the hardship and unequal operation of some of the provisions 9f the Aet of Henry VIII. His Lordship cited in par ticular, twO cases, the one. of the Redo:. of Bow. church, one of the most exemplary men, in all the various branches of his duty; in''the clerical pro fession, against whom, in consennence of his living in Ely-place,' Holborn, on account of its, being, froin pectiliar circumstances, impraCticable to live in the parsonage-house, he- was obliged to direa ry a Juto find." 'Another case presented itself, the particulars of which he cited, of a very opposite de scription, and in .which' the penal operations of the . Bill in question, were very properly applied. He adverted to these points, to, evince not only the great importance, but also the difficulty of coming to a right decision upon the general subjeet.— It was matter of serious and deliberate considera. lion.' His Lordship alluded to the great lif_ ficulty which men. 'placed in Offices of impor 7 tan', severe, and complicated duties experienced, in maturing great ,public measures.—He advert ed particularly, 16 the , situation of the Learned Judge alluded to 'by the Reverend I'relate, who, lead leisure and health permitted him to pursue his lahourk,relative . to, _the *tuhjeft in question, their Lordships would not at this time have any part ,of it to diseuss : the indisposition under which that person then laboured; wasin a great degree owing 'to the veri , close and unremitted attention which paid to the'sti*Ct in question: it was one nlott cxtennive concera than perhaps the.. ilcrise ;, , e, ere gerieralfrawitie'' of; iv involved not only considers. lions of ju,tice and policy, but even of humanity. With =sped to this loint, his Lordship, with a Ira! le degree of warmth and feeling, alluded to the filled which a general -inforcement. of residence would have on the rate, of the Onfortunate. and in digent Curates; it would go in a great degree to de prive them of the scanty pittance they at present hold. E?en from what had already taken place, many Cu. rates were turned out of employment ; this he had some 'opportunity 'of ;'learning - in' the - exercise - of his clerical patronage as Chundellor, and of which, he stated some distressing instances—With respect to a comprehensive Bill,• containing adequate provisions for . all that was complained of,. .he seemed: to say the Session. was too far advanced for bringing such I a Measure to maturity . within. ..its period; and he remarked _upon the superior wisdom, of deliberate and secure decision, in, opposition to hasty and premature. conclusions, and he also iioticed the pc. culiar calls which the Reverend Bench had generally towards theind of a Session; in their . respeetive Dioceses. The BISHOP of ST. • -AsAPH spoke. shortly in explanation, and disclaimed any intention of throW. ing the least imputation on Ate very Learned Gen tleman alluded to, for whom,'On the contrary, he had the,highest respeet.. • ' ' 'The Earl af CAPLISEE . made a few obseiva. tions, in the course of whia, he seemed to argue against the principle of-Billxof SospensiOn, and ad. verted to strong claims which Curates had to the consideration and humanity of the Legislature. Lcrd AUCKLAND also' made some observations, chiefly in reference to . the, general s'ubjeCt,:reSpely ing. which he. appeared of his Noble and Learned , Friend's . opinion, that the :present, Session world not,afford.suffictent for ; the : full . ; and adequate discussion of the measure, , s 6 generally allowed col be•nedessary. He'proceeded - tode'sciibe 4onie gene ral regulations which could, in skhatin6'sure'be intrnduced•with good effeef, and concluded by ob.. serving,„ that a full artendancp,i.if, ! t : heAteverend Bench would be peculiarly neccasary on such an oc. 1 casion. The LORD cIIANCE,L4PgIiin allusion to the 'point last adverted to by the Noble Lgrdi'ilid, that the Reverend Prelates had Pleas for absenting - them selves towards the close of a Session, which per. haps Temporal 'Peers, geneially speaking, had nor, namely, the exercise 'of their pastoral duties, and he lamented the thin attendance, which toots lace of the , Temporal Peers tosVards the cl - ofiti of a Session, a period when,;, f r ornt,tiniVOidable*,ircuttistanCes, a great proportion of legislative business was trans- The till was then read a second time, and pip. mitted for .to.morrow.'.. 4 - .

WEDNESDAY . , MARCR . .30. THR 'SPEAKER. took the Chair at three o'clock, when the House went through a great deal of pri. vale business. 'Several Members had leave of absence. The SPEA.r.r.e. • read e,:letter from Vice Admiral R Et rriree, acknowledging the Thanks of the House to him, and the Officeri under his command, and expressing . high gratification of the polite manner the SPEAKER . 1);.(1 communicated the same. 'A ,Report ,Wlls brought up from the Committee, appointed to try the merits of the Glasgow Elec. tion, stating, that ALEXAINEYER HOUSTON', Esq.was , not duly elk - tett; and that 110 YD ALEXANDER, Esq. was duly eleded, and that none of the Petitions were frivolous or vexatious.. The Deputy Clerk of the Crown .was ordered to attend . to.morro;v, to amend the Return,' On the Motion of Mr. BLACKBURN ) the Calico Petitioti wad referred to a Comouttee. TheSeiikitilti rose and informed the House, that -there were two 'Ballots fixed for to.osorrow, that the House would be counted at hail past three ; o'clock, and the Names of the absent Members, would be reported to the SPEAKER. The Order of .the Day was read, for the . house to i resolve into a Committee of the whole Houtei• on the Grenada Loan Bill. . ' .Sir .ROBERT BUXTON said, hccould. not but express'the sentiments he had done on a former oc casion, with respet to -the Bill - DPW broughtinto ' Parliament, 'and'he should give his decided disap. probation to , that measure, which went to misapply the Public Money. . Many incorivenierniee and losses would still arise to GoVernment, if they con tinued their support to that part of 'the West Indian Trade. • , Mr. /10kHOUSE said, he could not agree with the: Honourable Baronet; he was certaiti .that no loss had been sustained by Go'vernment the plain fads were,• that fourteen hundred thousand poinitis had. .been advanced for the support _„of this - tradc, and that this sum had been reduced to five hundred thousand pounds ; ' that being the case, every Member 'in' the House, must see that not. ' notwithstanding War; and Other utiplealint cit. tumstances, which had prevented the progress of . trade in the West Indies, yet. that mercantile esta. blishrrient was in a fair way of being a benefit:to Government. The West India Islands ptoduCed upwards of 30 thousand hogsheads of sugar, and , other valuable articles ; therefore Government . had • the' best security for the money they advanced. The whole of .the West India debt bad not been contracted more than six years, and with the assist. once now about to be given by the House, there war} no doubt of the prosperity that , would attend this West. Indian mercantile establishment. , 'Under these circumstances he should give his approbation to • the measure. Mr..7OIINSTOAPE said, he could not agree with the last Hon. Gentleman : he knew pettedly well, the great difference between the IVlsmied Interest and Landed Interest of the Country,. It Ara* no un. c:)mmon thing for persons tonneded with' Trade, to come into the House on all occasions and support Goveiriment, and therefore, the Mercantile part of the etiuntrY would see their interest to support the pre.4 , ,ra question, The lion. Gentleman had made t mistake as so the time the-Grenada Debt was con. , trated ; it was now upwards of eight years instead a six. He would now call to the ;collation of the House, the promise that was made to Par.. liament on the former application for money, that - it should theti be the last they would ask of the House to grant : but he was sorry to say the Gentlemen - had not kept their word, and the indulgence then granted for the support of this unprofitable trade, has turned out not sufficient. He` was of a different opinion "with" the lair Hon. Gentleman, as to the security Government were in possession of for their money ; it appeared to -him hy'nO Means good, and if this money now applied for, is granted by the House he would ask, what better security we - should get for this. Loan than we before had ? Five hundred thotisand pounds'were now owing, arid there waibuta chance of its being paid for a Fong time,to come. He thought the Whole ystelll,ta be highly improper in 'lending public money - in itich a conceen..—AVhen the West India market was over• stocked, we were called:upon to make good their losses. This was an indulgence allowed to the Weft Indian Trade; which was allowed tolaiOther ; he therefore thought it ought not to be 'supported. ' Mr. ;VAL, Du D AS:said he:mished: to submi t a few observations itt reply to what had fallen from the Honourable Gentleman who had just sat down. The. Hon, Gentleman had argued very much at ( length upon the abstraa question of, whether. Go vernment ought ) , : or ought not, to advance the Pub lic Money to support the Mercantile Inte rests of the Country. But if the Hon. Gentleman had weft an obiedion. to Government giving such assistance to the mercantile interest, how happened it that he h'4l not- .stated . his objetlions upon f o rmer . Dees skins when Government had adopted a.similar cod dud to the merchants of tiVerpoiii, - and la other 'itifithagrof - this - tawny The-Ciel was ',Oat .granted.. this., aid to the Merchants and planters of Saint Vincent's and Grenada, in 1795, when these Elands were desolated 11. gs ,event which human prudence could neither foresee nor prevent,: viz. , an insurredion of the Blacks. The. sum then . advanced was totoo,000l.; of that surri . all ILid been paid off, except about 60,0001., and the interest had been regularly paid the whole time. It had been suggested, . that more was paid ;in. - bourities on the re-exportation of the produce 0 1 those Islands, than was received by the customs 0n,,, their importation. Admitting this for a momen t to be true, was there no advantage to the shipping interest , o f Country in carrying on the trade with those Islands Or did the ,Hon. Gentleman mean to say that those Islands might as well be in the hands of France . as of any, other - country ? If of late the commodities of the West Ihdies had fallen in price, would it he consistent with gene' .rosity; wisdom, or policy, to press for the irn• mediate payment of a debt, so late' et,,vart of . which had been already discharged, the, interest of 'which was so regularly . paid, and for the whole of which the Public had such ample security ? Mr. ROSE said, that the Right Hon. Gentleman had, in a great degree, anticipated what he meant to have Offered. The Hon. Gentleman who Spice last but. one, seemed to. think, that a greater degree of 'favour was shewn to; the West India Trade On to others ; he was not aware upon What grounds alts 116n' Gentleman made ,that asserttn. The ichl e r which Parliament had ,g r a nt ed to the Merchant $ 'Grenada and St. Vincent, they had granted upon other ()cessions to other persons; - an d though t he Hon. Gentleman Seem e d t o t hink that Go vernment ought not to lend the Public Money ta s epp oit the _ Mercantile Interest, he begged leave to observe; 31,!ir it it had not been for the assistance afforded by vernment,. some years . ago to the Manufacturing Intro rest, the consequences might have been such as he was almost afraid'tti consider. But when the Hon. Gen tleman talked oftonsiderable favour being shown to the West-India Trade, did he consider of what lie: I 4 yortance that Trade was Co this Country he know , that it employed nedrlyonc.third of out Shipping ? lid he consider what a Nursery it was' for our Seamen, or did :e relied upon ihe iarias advantages this Country derived from that Trade At mite commencement of the: last Century, Govern' mcni had granted relief to some of the Westjnai ti ' Islands ; but the mode in which that relief Was granted, appeared to him to be neither. so. efficaei• ous nor so economical, as the relief; which had been granted by GJverntuent On the present occasion-•" circumstances, he should certainly give ars vote for the SpEmeett•leaving the Chair. Mr.DENT' fed wOrds: in support of Mt. JOHNSTON E's ot,jections to. the Bill. ilir. ALEXANLEIt .said, thtinght that the Public would not' 'suffer by the present measure. Mr. MANNING said also a few words in suF6 , port of the, Bill. ' The House then resolited itself into the said 1 • • Committee. .Mk. JOHNSTONE then asked the Chairman of the Committee whether this was the last, time the Houie was to' be applied to, for money to 64041 this measure I • Mr. iiWiIiOUSE,, the. Chairman, said; that vr,i,s not theAuesriOn before the Committee. Mr. VANSITTART said `a levi words in explana tion. .. Mr. .01111 said, the Hon. Gentleman (Mr; Jonustotst) Was Correa as to the ,tauestion he had put.. 7 -41e could not. help Saying, that if theliouse had supposed the present application would have been made fot money and support, for -the West India Trade, they. would. have been more cautious how they granted the public money on -the forma occasion. Mr' EAILZ IE said ha did - riot think elicit' would be any occasion to apply to the House, at a future. period, for any assistance. be The blank in the bill was then filled op, A t , period for paying the money is .to extend from 4th 4th of Oaouer, to the sth of March 18.04. The Chairman of ,the Committee reported pro gress, and asked leave 'to' sit again. The Corn mime was therefore ordered to sit again tonorrovv. The Roman Catholic Oath Bill was . read a time, and ordered to be read a third time tomor row.. Mr. VANSITTART brought up several ' Public Accounts, which were ordered to be prin ted. A Message from the Lords stated, , that rho, ha agreed to the Irish Militia sill, without anY amendment. Second
