Mr. HUME moved for the renewal of an order which he ob tained last year, for proclamations, advertisements, and no. tices, made to the different newspapers, by the various Go vernment offices and establishments, betwixt January, 1816, and April, 1822.—Ordered. VAGRANT LAWS. Mr. CHETWYNi,In bringing up the Report of the Com mittee upon the Vagrant Laws, said, that he had been misre presented with regard to the part he had taken in bringing for ward the Present measure. He had been charged with advo cating arbitrary laws, because he brought these laws before the consideration of the House, with a view to their consolidation. As well might any Hon. Member who brought forward the subject of the Criminal Code be charged with supporting its sanguinary laws. The Bill had undergone several amendments, which he thought would render it unobjectionable.. At the same time, it was proposed that it should only be enacted for a duration of two years, in order to try its operation. Sir R. WILSON considered the Amendments to he satis factoiy, as far as they went. The Report was ordered to be taken into further considera tion on Monday next. Mr. GOOCH presented a Petition from the County of Suf folk against the proposed admission of bonded corn into the market at the price of 65-shillings. • A similar Petition was presented from the Eastern part of the County of Essex. • Mr, WODEHOUSE presented two Petitions from certain hundreds In the County of Norfolk, complaining of Agricultu ral Distress: BANK CHARTER. Mr. GRENFELL had moved on a recent occasion for co pies of all Correspondence between the Government and the Bank of England. He wished to ask the Hon. Secretary for the Treasury, whom he saw in his place, whether those papers were likely soon to be before the House ? Mr. LUSIIINGTON said, he was unable to give an answer, and the Hon. Member had better postpone his question until his Right Hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer was in the House. DEAD EXPENCE. Mr. HUME said, they had heard a good deal of late about the 5,000,0001. of dead expence. lie apprehended there would be no objection to a Motion for a Return to shew how that amount was made up.—Ordered. A Message from the Lords announced that their Lordships had agreed to several private Bills. PUBLIC DEFAULTERS. Mr. HUME said, he had on a former occasion moved for a return of the names of all public defaulters within a certain number of years, and he wished to know from the Hon. Secre tary for the Treasury whether the returns were likely soon to be upon the table ? Mr. LUSHINGTON said, that these returns were so exten sive in their nature, that it was impossible to say when they would be ready. CRUELTY TO ANIMALS. Mr. R. MARTIN obtained leave to bring in a Bill for pre venting Cruelty to Animals., Mr. BENNET wished to know when the discussion upon the Superannuation Bill, which had been put off from day to day, might be expected ? Mr. LUSHINUTON said his Majesty's Ministers were not answerable for the delay, as it was entirely attributable to the press 'of business before the house. Mr. BENNET said it was desirable it should come on at an early day. Mr. WELLS presented a Petition from the Landowners of Kent, against Mr. Ricardo's plans. The Petitioners looked upon these plans with " surprise and dismay."—Laid upon the table. illr.• GRENFELL moved for a Return of the several pe riods, from 1722 to 1822, at which any renewal or extension of the Bank Charter took place. He said it would be found that, in 1800 only, was an application made by the Bank for a renewal before the former Charter had expired. The reason assigned for anticipating the expiration of the present Charter was, that the Bank had agreed to suffer similar establishments to itself to Ile erected anywhere not within 65 miles of London• It appeared to him that if this relaxation was any benefit, it should be also extended to the vicinity of London, and no qualification should be made. He said, he should oppose the renewal of the Charter to the Bank. Mr. LUSHINGTON said, he had no objection to the pro duction of the Returns. Mr. MABERLY said, he understood it was intended to allow the Bank to become bidders for this loan. As this was a power which they did not possess under their former Charters, he wished to know from the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite whether, in the extension of their Charter, a clause was intro duced, or would be introduced, by which the Bank would be enabled to go into the market and buy up annuities, or become bidders for the half-pay Joan ? Mr. LUSHINGTON said, that no such clause was intro duced, or intended to be introduced, in the Bank Charter. The Returns were then ordered. • • • . BRITISH CONSULS ABROAD. Mr. lIUME rose to bring on his motion upon this subject, of which he had given notice. He stated that his object was to fix a scale of fees payable to Consuls and Vice-Consuls, as at present great uncertainty prevailed upon that subject. Eng land was almost the only commercial country which had not a uniform system of charges. America had a uniform system— so had France. In many places the Consuls were paid by sa lary, and had no fees whatever. The charges payable to Bri- r 7 ; rnicr . EVFNPENCE . tish Consuls varied in every port. - . Whilst an. Ansetitan chid paid:but two dollats for exhibiting -the ship!sTvers; it Cost an: .11:tigl i ish ship from two to six pou n d s , attthe' game ' Lists of argeS -shotild be matte out, and de.livered.to the masters of vessels. He had taken the trouble •to comps khe'eharges at several ports to which British ships resorted'.; Welte fotind the greatest discrepancy in them. For a vessel of 150 tons burden the charges were At Hanibtirgh - - .£1 .17 6—or 3d per tat. Rotterdam - • - 516 8 Bordoaux - - • 8 2 6 Naples - - 4 8 3 Leghorn - - .- 3 8 9 •' • Genoa:" - •• - - 315 .0 • • , - And St. Micharl's a - different sum from 'all these. - He con• tended that all these_charges•were over-rated, - and that at least they , ought to Whrought 'to Some unifornrStandard, by which the British rnerehant . would 'be governed. He had said .they were over -rated, because he found the allowance to : British Consuls 'bad- 'greatly increased within some years.— 1n.1792-it was but 10,9001;, now it amounted to 80,0001. He understOod the subjbce was 'under the consideration 'of the Board' of Trade. These quesions, however, were some times yearS Varlef' -consideration ' before' any decisive step was taken, and he therefore wished to call the attention of Ministers more particularly to the subject. He 'had also to complain that proper' -persons 'were. not chosen as Consuls abroad. Persons had been' appointed the situation who were calculated to bring discredit upon the character in general. 'He hoped also that with the table of fees, there would be also furnished a return of how long Consuls-Ge neral had been absent from their posts. Be knew it was usual to con Sider t:-.e office of Consul-General as a sine cure, and that these Gentlemen thought they had it for life ; and that if they took possession of their office they had discharged their duty. Many of these Consuls-General, if he (Mr. H.) was rightly 'informed, were absent for years together. The Noble Lord had greatly increased the num ber of Consuls in 1815, without alluding any additional fa . - cilities to trade. The Consuls-General enjoyed large sala ries, having scarce any thing to do. There was a Consul- General in the Netherlands with a ilarge salary, and an9ther at Paris with a - salary of three thousand ' pounds 4-ytar, though his office was open but from eleven to one•o"clock in 'the day. As the charges now stood, a French' vessel could enter a port and discharge its cargo at one-fourth less expense than an English one. Upon the whole it ap peared to him that the system ought to be reformed, and he hoped the Noble Lord would turn his attention 40 it. The Hon. Member concluded by moving, " That an h'umble Ad dress be presynted to his Majesty, praying that he would be graciously pleased to order returns of fees charged 'at the seve ral ports by his Majesty's Consuls and Vice-Consuls, from the year 1792 tb 1821, and the authority by which the same were demanded." The Marquis of LONDONDERRY did not rise to give any opposition to the motion. The papers would be produced, but the Hon. Member was himself aware that the subject was an important and difficult one. The Board of Trade had for some time been. considering how far it was practicable to adopt an uniform scale of fees for all the ports ; but so many difficulties occurred in the detail of the plan, that as yet they had not come to any decision. But though this object could net be attained, yet it was easy for merchants to ascertain by application, either at the Foreign Office, or at the office of the Board of Trade, what were the fees to be paid to British Cot, ..ls at each parti cular port. Upon the scale of uncertainty, therefore, no great complaint could be made. It might perhaps be necessary to say, that though Consuls were responsible at his (the Noble Lord's) office, yet that as they were in fact commercial agents, they were entirely under the controul of the Board of Trade. As to the Authority by which fees were levied, he could answer the lion. Member that it was under the sanction of the Go vernment at home. lie (Lord L.) agreed that it was desirable to equalise the charges at all the ports, anti that it would be better to pay the Consuls by salary, and abolish fees altogether. —(hear.)—But there were great difficulties in the way of doing this. The amount paid to Consuls already amounted to 30,0001. but what would it be if all the Consuls and Viee.:Con suls had salaries ? Therefore, when it was not possible - to siaary all, it would not be wise to give them only a few ; but he had some hopes that a plan would yet be adopted to remove a Por tion of the Hon. Member's complaint. But it was asked why merchants residing on the spot were not made Consuls, which would save a considerable expense ? So they had been ; in a great many instances the Vice-Consuls were taken front this class. But he was no friend to extending this system, for it was calculated to give these individuals unfair advantages in the trade in which they were engaged. This was the light in which Government had viewed th subject, and before the end of the Session a Bill upon • the subject would be brought. into the House. With regard to the absence of Consuls-General, he (Lord 1..) had no objection to giVe all the information in his power ; but he, should say that he did not know a case such as the lion. Member had stated. The Noble Marquis then referred to the case of Mr. Chamberlain, Consul-General at Rio Janeiro, to whom allusion had been made upon a former night, with a view of rebutting the charges which had been brought against that Gentleman. He begged the House to suspend their judgment until the return home of Mr. Cham berlain, when it would be shewn that these charges were entirely without foundation. Mr. ROBINSON said, this was a question of much deli cacy and considerable. difficulty. The paying of Consuls by salary was certainly the more desirable mode, if the objec tions to it in the way of increased expence were not so power ful. Much had been said of the high charges of the Consuls at certain ports, but it was a fact that they were sometimes without receiving any fees, and they and their families were re. duced to considerable inconvenience. If the fees varied, it should be ,also recollected that so did the mode of living at different ports. The subject had been long under the conside ration of the Board of Trade, and he (Mr. 11.) hoped that they would at length devise some plan for supporting the•Consuis respectably, witlpu t incurring any additional ex pente.—( Hear !) Mr. ELLICIS hoped that if any new arrangement were made, it would not press upon the shipping interest. lie *mild sug gest that shippers might be allowed to charge to the owners ot the goods whatever charges they incurred to the Consuls at the parts. Mr. HUME. the►t moved for Returns of what periods Con suls-General had been absent from their ports since I£lls. He considered that the President of the Poard of Trade deserved great credit for the various reductions he had caused in charges Affecting the shipping interest. He hoped to see that lion. Gentleman pursue the same course with regard to the present subject.' After an observation from Sir R. WILSON, and an explana tion from the Marquis of LONDONDERRY, the motion was agreed to. AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS. Lord A. HAMILTON presented a Petition from the'Cara . missioners of Supply in the County of Lanark, comPlamnag. of the distressed state of the agricultural interest, and praying the attention of the House. The Petitioners alsO prayed for the liberty of importing diStilled spirits into England. He said that the distress was not confined to the growers of corn alone, but that it had extended itself among the breeders of sheep and cattle. The Petitioners had stated that they relied upon the wisdom of that Hoitse for some plan for their relief, but he much feared that those feelings of confidence would be im paired by the proceedings of last night. • Mr. MAXWELL was of opinion that all the restrictions of the consumption of grain imposed by the Distillery Laws should be done away with. •Much could yet be done for the relief of the farmer by increasing the consumption of corn, and by-an efficient reduction of taxation. • Mr. J. P. GRANT said, that the breeders of cattle and the grazing interests suffered as severely under the present din. tress as the. growers of corn. Mr. H. BLAIR. corroborated those statements of general distress. Colonel TRENCH made a few observations on the present state of Ireland. He said that his letters on that. day received, gave a most lamentable description of the sufferingsof the wretched people. It was not in Clare alone that their,situa don was so deplorable ; in the Counties of :%layo and Roscom mon they were in a state of absolute starvation. He was sorry to see that the prospects were equally unfavourable for the next year. After a few words from Sir J. NEWPORT and Mr. DRUM MOND, the Petition was brought up, ordered to be laid or. the: table, and be printed. Lord A. HAMILTON also presented a similai petition from the growers of barley in the County of Lanark.--Ordered to be laid on the table, and to be printed. NAVIGATION BILL. Mr. WALLACE postponed the farther consideration of the Report of the Committee on this Bill until Monday, the 20:11 l ~
