TUESDAY, MAY 21, 1822 PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, MONDAY, MAY 20. Lord' DELAMERE took the oaths and his seat Lie was introduced by Lords KENYON and BRAY BROOKE. The Earl of BLESINTON postponed the re-commitment of the Irish Deeds' Registration Bill to Thursday next. Mr. HARRISON and Mr. PHILLIPS attended as Counsel, and examined witnesses before the Committee on Doyle's Divorce Bill. CATHOLIC PEERS BILL. Mr. CANNING, accompanied by several Members -of the Howe of Commons, brought up this Bill ; the Right Hon. Oentleman, on delive r i ng i t t o the. Lord Chancellor, repeated the full title in terms to the folloWing effect :—" The Com mons have passed this Bill, entitled a Bill to provide - that Peers of the United Kingdom, being otherwl w duly qualified, may exercise.the right of sitting in Parlitmet without taking the oath, or making the declaration herein recited, to Which they desire the concurrence of this House." After a short time bail elapsed, the Bill was, on-the motion of the Duke of PORTLAND, read a first time. A 'words, not distinctly 'beard. below the bar, were then interchanged between the Earl of Ltv - EaPow. and the Duke of PORTLAND, in consequence of which the second reading was fixed for Friday; the 31st current. The following • Petitions were presented hgainst the Bill; viz :—From the Corporation of Stirling,' by tiv Duke of Mon tro-se • from the Corporation of Exeter by Mrd Rolle ; from the Rector. and Churchward e n s o f St. Olave's, Southwark, - by Earl Bathurst ; from the Rector, &c. of Christ Church, Canterimry ; from the Clergy Of the DioCess of Canter. bury, by the Earl of Shaftesbury ; from the Rector and Churchwardens of St. Margaret's, Leicester ; from the Recttr, &c. of St. Mary's, Leicester, by the Duke of Rutland. - The latter of these two last-mentioned Petitions, the Noble Duke observed, had been spontaneously signed by 510, of the inha bitants of the parish, without any public meeting having been called on the subject. NEWFOUNDLAND. Lord HOLLAND observed, that it might be in the recoi lection of their Lordships, that he had last 's'ession presented a Petition from Newfoundland complaining of the undile admi nistration of justice, and other grievances, arising from the want of any regular system of government. Tate Noble Earl at the headsof the Colonial department stated, on the Petition being presented, that he would cause inquiry take made into the-allegations. Seeing the Noble Earl in his place, he wished to ask him whether the inquiry had been concluded, and what had been done in consequence of it ? Earl BATHURST had not failed to pay attention to the subject alluded to by the Noble Lord. He had, indeed, pro ceeded to prepare a Bill for removing the inconveniences which had been complained of; and had intended to submit it to. Par liament after the Easter holidays. But in the meantime he received notice that the governor of the Island was desirous to 'come to this country to give some important explanations. Under these circumstances, he thought it proper to defer any farther proceeding until he should have an opportunity for per sonal communications with the governor. , Lord HOLLAND had hoped that due attention would be dto the allegations in the Petition lie presented. The-Nobl e Earl was himself perfectly aware thatit contained matter of great importance to the Colony. In fact, while Parliament had been deliberating without adopting any measure of re lief, the town from which the Petition came had been twice burnt down. • Earl BATHURST observed, that the representations made in the Petition had been examined, and were found to be in many instances grossly exaggera:ed. Nevertheless, he had re solved to bring in a measure of regulation ; but upon the state ment of the governor, that he wished to have the opportunity of making personal explanations, he thought - he would not have done his duty had he not conse4tod to so aot~ r , The Earl of DA RATI4I4IV WA. nAt rrePared t stated. - the complaints might possibly be very much exaggerated. Still, however, after - what had passed, he hoped the Noble Earl would have no objection to give the House a pledge of his intention to Iring the subject forward next'Session. Earl BATHURST had no hesitation in saying that it was his intention to bring the subject under tie- consideration of Parliament next Session.—Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. H. SUMNER presented a Petition flora the Overseers and Guardians of the Poor in the Parish of Christ-church, Surrey, against the Poor Removal Bill. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR presented a Petition from the Debtors confined in Durham County Gaol, praying for relief. Mr. DAVENPORT presented a Petition from the Silk. manufacturers of Macclesfield, against the Warehousing Bill, Mr. LAMBTONpresented a Petition from the Ship-owners of South Shields against the Navigation Bill. Lord STANLEY presented a Petition from the Directors of the Chamber of Commerce and Manufactures at Manchester, in favour of the Navigation Bill, an d p ray i ng f or t h e remova l' of the restrictions upon Commerce in general. Lord STANLEY presented a Petition frost a large and re= spectable body of Merchants and Manufacturers resident in the town of Blackburn in the County of Lancaster, against the Poor Removal Bill. Petitions of a similar nature were presented from the Mayor and Corporation of Liverpool, by General GASCOYNE ; from the Overseers and Guardians of the Poor of the Parish of St. Nicholas, Nottingham, by Mr. BIRCH ; and from the Overseers and Guardians of the Poor (Ape Parish of St. Paul, Deptford, by Sir E. KNATCHBULL. Alr. NEEDHAM presented two petitiohs from the Owners and Occupiers of Land resident near Newry in Ireland, one praying that an additional duty might be imposed upon im ported Butter, and the other that no alteration of the existing Corn Laws might take place. Col. BAGWELL presented a petition similar to the first presented by Mr. Needham, from Owners and Occupiers of Land in the county of Tipperary. Col. TRENCH observed, that the price of butter had de clined in Ireland from 90s. to less than 50s. per cent. - Lord A. HAMILTON presented three petitions, one from the Corporation of Wrights of Edinburgh, another from a Cor poration of Dundee, and the third from the Burgesses of Perth, against the Lord Advocate's Bill respecting the Scotch Burghs. Mr. CURTEIS presented a petition from certain Owners and Occupiers of Land in the county of Sussex, complaining of distress, and praying for relief. Mr. CURTEIS then gave notice, that on the lath of June he would bring forward a motion relative to the present mode of marking hop-sacks. SCOTCH BURGHS. Lord A. HAMILTON moved that the second reading of: the Lord Advocate's Bill• relative to Scotch, Burghs be fixed for this day fortnight. In doing this, the Noble Lord ex pressed his surprise that the second reading of the Bill had been so long delayed. The LORD ADVOCATE said he was about to inform the House on a former evening of the causes of the delay which had occurred with regard - to his Bill, but he had been prevented from doing so by the Noble Lord, who caused the House to be counted out. He would not satisfy the Noble Lord on the pre sent occasion, though he should be prepared to give a full ex planation to the House hereafter: After a few - words from Mr. ABERCROMBY, the second reading of the Bill was fixed according to the notice of Lord A. Hamilton. Sir H. VIVIAN presented a Petition from the inhabitants of Truro, in Cornwall, praying for the repeal of the Salt Tax. Mr. S. WORTLEY presented a Petition from the Tanners of Sheffield, praying for the repeal of the Leather Tax. The Hon. Member expressed his opinion that relief would be best af forded to the country by the repeal of some of the Assessed taxes. He took this opportunity to ask the Hon. Secretary for the Treasury how it happened that since the repeal of the Agri cultural Horse Tax, Farmers who held land under a certain extent paid a higher duty on horses than before ? Mr. LUSHII\GTON understood that by the existing .40, a farmer had been supposed liable to pay for one of his hoftes as a ridlng horse, at the rate of 21. 17s. 6d. a year. Orders were already given in the proper quarter that such -had not been the intent of the Act; but he held in his hand a notice for a short Bill which would be declaratory of the true mean ing of the law. The Bill was then brought up and read. Mr. WODEHOPSE brought up a report from the Agricul tural Committee, recommending certain regulations relative to the warehousing system. NAVIGATION LAWS. Mr. STUART WORTLEY presented a Petition from %Vhitby, in Yorkshire, against any alteration in the' +Naviga tion Laws. Mr. COKE presenied a Petition from the ship-owners of Wells, in Norfolk, to the.sameeffect. • IRISH TITHES. Mr. ABERCROMBY presented` a Petitien from a \ Mr. Carew, the proprietor of certain Tithes in the Queen's County, in'lreland, praying for an alteration in the present Law of Tithes in Ireland, To that law he attributed much of the dis , turbances now prevailing in that unhappy country. The Peti .tioner said he was willing to make a sacrifice otrpersonal emolument, if the Legislature would alter the system. Ex' pectations on this suluecf had been held out towards the Irish people; and the reality had certainly not corresponded with them: lie trusted some measure would be soon adopted for the purpose of affordii:g relief to the inhabitants of Ireland. Mr. GOULBURN said that in a few days he should be prepared with a specific measure on the subject. ' - Mr. CAREW spoke shortly in support of the Petition. He considered much of the sufferings of Ireland was to be attri buted to absentees as well as to the tithe system. Mr. S. RICE said the'substance of the measure alluded to by,the Right lion. Secretary- (Mr. GoulburE) was already ltqw-D 4 •and it was well-known it would tint give satisfaction. The Parochial Clergy of Ireland • were of this opinion. In deed, the measure in question *as merely . avantageous to thp Episcopacy.. It had been stated that he (Mr. R..) was.fa.vour able to the abolition of thetithes on potatoes, without giving the Clergy an equivalent. This he positively denied; and-he declared he would not obtain eyen a relief of the peasantry of Ireland at the expellee of the first principles of justice. Mr.'(.3-OULBURN explained. Mr. PLUNKt:T'said 'the prdent Petition- was merely . for an alteration in the mode of collecting Tithes, and, not for their abolition. He presumed the Petitioner did not mean to offer the sacrifice of the Tithes themselves. Where there was a proper feeling displayed by the landlords towards their te nantry, there was little.' clamoueabout tithes. Any measure calculated to improve the mode of collecting the tithes would have his support. Lord ENNISMORE said the distress of Ireilnd was to be referred principally to the conduct of Middlemen, ,trhose num ber was-diminishing very fast. Sir JOHN NE‘I;PORT said he could see no reason why a commutation should not take place with respect to the tithe of potatoes. Unless the system were inquired into and - altered, he feared the most fatal consequences to the Established Church. Mr. DALY concurred in the sentiments of the Right Ho nourable Baronet. • Mr. COOPER said a few words from under the gallery, which were quite inaudible. The Petition was then ordered to lie on the table. - • , -.Mr. CAREW presented a Petition f rom ano th er I n diii dual Tigre Holder to the same effect as the last.—Ordered to lie on the table. Mr. COKE presented a Petition from the Ship-Owners of Wells, in. Norfolk, against any alteration in the Navigation Laws; and another Petition from , the sanie.eountb•complain ing of agricultural distress.—Both Petitions were prdered to lie on the table. • LAW STAMPS.. Mr. HUME presented a Petition from certain Law Sta tioners of London against the Stamp Bill now in progress thrOugh the House. went to deprive them of a certain pro portion of their present allowance on Stamps—Ordered to lie on the table. MANSLAUGHTER BILL. On the Report of the Bill being brought up, Mr. BROUGHAM rose. He said it was far from his in tention to offer any opposition to this Bill. It possessed at least one good tendency, and involved one acknowledged principle of law, in departing from which the criminal - code -of .this t hdtuone.netucci. unequal ui l val e vic e es d 9.u t o tloa t l h eb, i lt eu: p grl : o r lfr t ace,t o :r f retaiulde o s t e :r 7od. l f a d i i v ii.iei r w rs h ,pai i r c :ip t du t e n nn et icse e h d nwl o ean u s.: t , country sinned against one of the great canons of-jurispru-- al nature - to cer.. punishmentuff u offences. definite offences; certain to be inflicted,and possible, in order to the greatest economy of human life.__ (Hear q --But, at the same time, it was there • should b e a j ust and true pro just as true that hL onion of puni s h ment to the propo r ti on of offence.

Such conduct, he contended, could not fail in bringing the ad ministration of justice into certain, although not unmerited,.- contempt. ALEHOUSE LICENSING BILL. Mr. BENNET moved that•the Order of the Day for the se cond reading of this Bill be read, .for the purpose of post poning it. Mr. BERNAL complained that this Bill was confined in its operation to all houses in the country, and not those within the jurisdiction of London.. Mr. BENNET took the liberty to say that, in his opinion, his Hon. Friend would do well to inform himself correctly on a subject; before he undertook to instruct . the House 'esth respect to it. He (Mr. Bennet), begged to say; that what his Hon. Friend had stated was unfounded in . fact. The '.lhll wbuld be dperative all over the kingdom, as well as in London and Westminster. He had taken great pains to apply one re medy for the Metropolis, for a distinct evil, and another for the country. Mr. MONCK said, that after the number of Petitions that had been-presented, complaining of grievances in this respect, there could be no doubt of the.necessity of such a Bill. The second reading of the Bill was then postpbned to a future day. WINDOW TAX. Mr. HOBHOUSE postponed the motion of wbich,he had given notice, relative to the repeal of the Window Tax, from Wednesday next, to Wednesday the 19th June. He did this in order to allow time for his Majesty's Ministers to bring for ward any measure they might think tit On the subject. The Vagrant Laws Amendment Bill, and the Yorkshire Poll Bill were postponed; the farmer to Monday next, and the latter to the 7th June.- MARRIAGE. ACT AMENDMENT BILL. The House went into a Committee on the Marriage Act Amendment Bill, and its amendments were read. • Mr. WETHERLL objected to the first clause of this Bill, which went to put into the power of minors, the contract ing of marriage with a view of afterwards, by the connivance or otherwise of their parents, annulling them. It was, id his opinion, a piece of useless legislation, which, under the title of a remedial act, only went to render the defect of the law more glaring than before, and to declare that to be law which was as notorious as the price of Muscovado sugar, which ap peared in the Gazette weekly. This Bill might , have been very useful if brought in twenty years ago, but at the present time it acted as a bounty on the obscurity of the marriage laws. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman concluded by mov ing that the - clause be read that day six months. Sir JAMBS, MACKINTOSH said, he had not expected to hear any one oppose the Bill of his Hon. And Learned Friend, still less did he expect it from the quarter whence it had issued. His Hon. and Learned Friend near him (Mr. Wetherell) seemed to admit that the present Marriage Law was one which violated all the moral feelings of mankind, rendered property insecure, and caused discord- among families.; and after this admission, he supposed it Ives in the exercise of his ingenuity, in order to render a 'principle so shocking palatable to his audience that he had argued against 'it. His Hon. and Learned Friend said this Bill was of no use, as the law of mar riage had been clear and notorious since twenty years ago. He knew that he alluded to the decision in the case of Lydyard and Horner. But according to the present law, marriages with only the consent of the natural mother so long ago as 1755 Were now void, and the issue thereby affected, and he asked what could Lydyard and Horner- do in that case ? By this law nullity was propagated from generation to generation, throughout the whop course of the matrimonial circle. By it no father could know if he possessed paternal authority over his child—no child know if he owed filial duty. It became ne cessary for every one about to enter into-a state of wedlock to scrutinize the marriages of the ancestors of the family into PRICE- SEVENPENCE • . . 'which he was going to. enter. This Bill even left an opening for much fraud to be committed, and be:regretted that it did • so. His Hon. and Learned }'aiend complained that this clause put it in the power of itidilidnagto commit fraud for-the space of a certain number of years. But the pre sen t. stat e of thelaw not only permitt e d th e young man marrying under. certain cir-. cumstances, to places his wife in, a situation of g r eat dep&r.den . , cy, but also p u t it out of his, power ,to amend i t . I t d ec l ared, that marri ages aga in st the consent,,of parent s or guardians were null and void for ever. This Bill circumscribed that power to within a feW years. He gave. the-Bill his. entire support. Dr. LUSHINGTON perfectly agreed with- his lion. l and Learned Friend, . that there were aefectstinthe.Marriage Laws loudly calling for amendinent,although they. might not deserv e the glowing, description ofhis honourable and Learned Friend on his, right (Sir jathes Mackintosh). Butt:ouch as this Bill W4S necessary, it did not in his opinion go far enough, and was most obnoxious in some of its clauses. .lieparticidarly alluded to that clause which put it in the power of. the father, mother, or guardian to annul a m arr i age contracted againSt 'their can-- sent before the age of twenty,one. He • 4lao . ailtrerted. to a . clause-which gave the same power in the .case of a . marriage .Iduring minority without the consent of-parent Sor gnaxtlitins.,- I .he first of these,clauses gave an arbitrary Power over. per Sons without their consent; and in the latter case the guardian or parent might be abroad or absent, and-it would -be extremely hard to visit individuals with punishment for sins which they Could not avoid committing. He thought it would' be much better to fix an earlier age, and, to declare all marriages before 'that indissoluble. • Mr. WETHERELL explained. - ', Dr. PHILLIMORE made a few observations in defe.lq of tie Bill. - - It was true, as was stated by his Hon. and Learned .FriendS, that this Bill left the marriagcs of minors in equi!ibrio for a certain.number of years ; but he set against that evil that the present state of the lain declared marriage contracted by_ minors, witho u t t h e consent of the parents or guardian, null and void for ev er . lie assured his lion. and Learned Friend opposite, that if he had the same opportunity which he (Dr. Phillimore) had of .witnessing the oppressive and devastating operation of thiS part of the - law. he would not make the objec tion' to his Bill which he had advanced. The question was then put, and the Clause was agreed to. On the second clause being read, • Mr. WETHERELL said he objected to it, because read sir tl j ia A t A d ili ay ssix MALI months. lN took of the natur e o f a retrospect i ve law. He moyed that it b e TOSH observed, that if his. Hon. and Learned Friend objected to a 'law beci.tise•it was retro spectii-e, he must. quarrel with a great. number of our bast laws. With regard to the defect in our law Which this clause was intended to remedy, it almost justified the charge b - ought against us by foreigners, that we had no feeling for any thing that could not be expressed in younds, shillings ; and pence. He saw minors protected against tailors' bills,' bitt,tll". i'llar riage Act was left unprotected. All the ties of honour, and all the- interests of society, - and the principles of social life, were violated by such a state of law. He then referred to several Bills which had been brought in since the Maraiage .Act, retrospectively}- to confirm marriages which had been so lemnized atter it had passed, and in violation of the pro:- visions of that Act, to chew that there were precedents for that interference which was now contemplated. Under the present law, marriages were not' valid, if solemnized in- a chapel which had not been licensed before a certain .period. Yet surely no reproach did attach to a lady or gentleman, who, when their w a rm es t a ff ect i ons were called forth and about to be united, ornittAl to inquire when the Chapel was licensed in which the marriage ceremony was to be per formed. - B u t t hi s , h owever, it might be contended,. they were able to do ; but something was required- under the butn t d h o o . w Theycould existing law to m a k e marriages secure; which the p ar ti es cou ld . taqscueirrr into nwo marriages hent chape w l h h ic a n d i b ia e d en b l e i e cr c s e e l d e. , might in brated perhaps seventy years before, and which from being liable to be called' in question, might mutually m a ke th e i rs a nullity? Th e ex i st i ng l aw, therefore, want to hang doubts veer ' - every marriage in 'th e ki ng d om ; and to affect not only the partia to them, but all theifdescendants. The Ope rations of the law as it stood were most injurious iu.every re spect. It was calculated to produce the w o r st e ff ects on Socie.: ty. lie would suppo s e an elder brother of one of .the first fa: milks in the kingdom to marry. The law, as at now stood, had a tendency to induce his younger brother, to l o ok oveir the history of the w if e ' s family, in' the hope of discoVering'some by which lie might bla...k the • dren grow up in he and comfort, indulging the reason.. able expectation of succeeding to that fortune to which they considered tl\ernselves to be born ; and when the breath had left the body of their parents, the younger brother of th e deceased might spring ,on his victims and turn them out des titute orphans. and outcasts on the world. He did- not say such conduct was likely to' be common, but sueh.was the tendency of the lau'as it now stood. ' Having .adVerted to the measures introduced at various periods to mitigate or correct the evils growing out ot the Marriage Act, he proceeded to controvert -the argument of. Mr:. Burke, " tbat a minor who was incapable of binding himself by any other contract. ; ought not to be held capable of marriage." This he conceived - a gross fallacy ; she Wed that marriage was an act, with, respect to which, the principles which had held- good in ordinary cases did not apply; and he therefore condemned the Marriage -Act, as being at variance.-with the wise structure. and ge nerous - spirit of British Law. It certainly had more of the insolence of the Patricians of Rome, or of the imbecile,Gran dees of Castile, of seeking to preserve their blood from being . contaminated by a plebeian connection, than was consistent with that , equality -which it was the object of the Britisb , Consti tution to uphold by one unbroken chain, extending from the Very foot of the throne to the extremest limit of liberal educatioli. It was a law fashioned to protect rank and wealth, but direct ed against virtue and nature. It protected the daughters of men of wealth from the poor fortune hunter, but it left her liable to be sacrificed by the avarice of her parents. It 'guarded against the errors of youth, which were likely to be generous, but made no provision against. those of age, which were fro-. cjuently quite as mischievous, and which were less•freq ue ntly on the side of generosity ; and it went to make brothers and relations 4pies -on eachrother, and to make inquisitorial inquiry and suspicion take place Of that confidence and mutual esteem which it ought to be the object of legislation to encourage and preserve. On these grounds, when the present - amendment was disposed Of, he should move to leave out the words which he had mentioned. Mr. WETHERELL explained his view of the measure. Mr. D. GILBERT reminded the House, that only.six years ago, when, through a technical omission, some millions of pro perty had passed to those to whom it was not intended to be conveyed, the legislature had interfered by a retrospec tive measure to correct the error. He wished' the, present measure to pass,and would be content that it should pass, even in a state ess perfect than could be wished, so that it were kept clear of that which, might endanger its success in another place. . The Marquis of LONDONDERRY thought the Rill ought to pass; and if the Legislature was under a moral obligasion to alter the law, he could not bring his mind tn any point at which they could stop, withput attempting to remove that mass of calamity which had accumulated under the _present system. In his opinion they would fall very short of their moral duty, if they did not attempt, as far as lay in them, to iemedy the evil. He could not see why a clause should be introduced to put those parties now before the. Court in a situa tion different from that of parties who were not before the Court. The measure ought to be ma X comprehensive as possible ; and those small technicalities v;r• ch threw difficulties in , the way of ordinary proceedings ought not here to be allowed to affect to omnipotence of legislative justice. The Athendment was negati - ved, and . the Clause, the Amend. ment proposed by Sir J. _Mackintosh having been thrown out, was agreed to. The remaining clauses were then disposed of, the House re. sined, and the Report of the Committee was ordered to be re ceived to-morrow. On the motion of Mr. GOULEURN, the House went into a: Committee on the Irish Poor Emplofment Bill. The blanks were filled up, and the House h!ving resumed, the Report was ordered to be received to-morrow. NAVIGATION BILL. Mr. WALLACE moved the Order of the Day for the House resolvirig itself into a Committee of the whole House on the above Bill. On the question—" That the Speaker do new !gave the Chair," , Mr. IVALLAC rose and said he- wistiqd to offer' to the Houk a few observatiehs on the natu.re and -ohjectAthe mea sure which they were About to discuss in Committee. He would do this chiefly for the. twose of meeting .certain-,objections which he understood had, in some degree, been advanced
