PARLIAMENT, HOUSE OF LORDS, MONDAY, JULY ROYAL ASSENT. A little before four o'clock,, the LORD CHAN CELLOR, the Earl of SHAFTESBURY, and Lord REDESDALE appeared as his Majesty's Commis sioners, and brought the Royal Assent to the fol lowing Bills The Loan Bill, the Charge of Pensions Bill, the Five per Cent. Repayment Bill, the Scotch Spirits Drawbacks Bill, the Consolidated Fund Growin g Produce Bill, the Marriage Act Amendment Bill, the Small Notes Bill, the Bankrupts' Joint Commissions Bill, the Fees of Courts Bill, the Irish Prisons Bill, the 11l Treatment of Cattle Bill, the Bakers' Regulation Bill, the Middl e s ex C ount y R ates Bill, and several private Bills. NEW BILLS. • Mr. BROGDEN and others brought up from the Commons the following Bills :—Tht Alien Bill, the Salt Duty R e d u cti on Bill, the Exchequer Bills. Issue Bill, the Irish Constables Bill, the Receivers General Bill, the Thames Ballastage Bill, the Court of Exchequer Sittings Bill, the Scotch Royal Burghs Regulation Ireland Money Relief Bill, and the Scotch Magistrates' Residence Bill. _ . ALIEN BILL. This Bill having been read a first time, The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, that understanding that it would be convenient - for several Noble Lords who were ad verse to the measure, not to attend for some days, and being desirous at the same time, at this late period of the Session, that as little delay as possible should occur in the passing of this Bill, he should trust that the Noble Lords would not object to taking the discussion on, the third reading. Lord HOLLAND, though strongly opposed to the mea sure, had no objection to the course proposed, by the Noble It was then agreed, on the motion of the Earl of LIVER POOL, that the Bill should be printed. His Lordship then gave notice, that he should move the second reading pro firma on Wednesday, and the third reading on Monday next. The Irish' Constables Bill having been read a first time, was also ordered to be printed, on the motion of the Earl of LIWkRPOOL, and the second reading was fixed for neit 'Wednesday. The other Bilis from the Commons were then read a first tinie. Mr. To ivitrws, from the Treasury, presented a Report from the Commissioner* of the Northern Light Mouse.—Laid on the table. , The Earl of LIVERPOOL having signified his Majesty's consent to the House proceeding with the Bill for regulating the Offices of the Duchy of Cornwall, the Duchy of Cornwall Bill went through a Committee, and was reported. Th© Leather Duty Reduction Bill and the Irish Endowed Schools Bill went also respectively thiough Committees and were reported. IRISH INSURRECTION ACT. The House having resolved itself into a Committee on tb.c Bill for continuing the said Act, The Marquis of LANSDOWN, pursuant to his notice, moved that the clause depriving persons suffering under the operation of the Act, of the power of bringing actions. against Magistrates, and having them tried by Juries, be omitted. The motion was negatived without a division, the House re sumed, and the Report of the Committee was received. The Earl of ROSSLYN presented a Petition from the In aorporation of Hammennert of the Royal Burgh of Inverness, against the Scotch Burghs Regulation, and the Scotch Magis trates' Residence Bills.—Laid on the table. SLAVE TRADE. The Marquis of LANSDOWN seeing that a Resolution had bee,% adopted by the other House, expressing its abhorrence of the Slave Trade, and its confidence that his Majesty's Mi nisters would continue their earnest endeavours to induce other Powers to render its abolition effective, wished to say, that if he had not called their Lordships' attention to the sub ject, in the form of a distinct, proposition, it was because he had no new facts to , produce since the Address moved by their Lordships last year; unless it were the fact, that notwithstand ing that Address, the abolition of the Slave Trade, as far as it regarded the great Continental Powers, had made .no progress, and the infamous traffic was carried on by France and Portugal to a verylarge extent, notwithstanding their professions, en gagements, and treaties. It was, however, a cheering view to find that amongst the new Governments who had lately esta blished their independence, a feeling existed for the abolition of the Slave Trade which did them honour. He trusted that England, in common with other Maritime Powers, would enter into some general agreement and concert to put down that traffic amongst their own subjects, and - to compel other States tc. do the same. With that hope, in a future Session of Parlia ment, he should call their Lordships' attention in a more de tailed manner to the subject. After the resolution agreed to by the other House ; he conceited he should not have done his duty, if he had not availed himself of the last opportunity which he should have this Session, to address these few words. to their Lordships. PRISON LAWS. Viscount SIDMOUTH having moved that the Nouse re solve itself into a Committee on the Prison Laws Consolidation Bill, .The LORD CHANCELLOR said that a subject of that importance required more time for consideration than it was possible for the House to give it at this advanced period. of the Session. He should therefore propose that the further consi deration of the measure be, in one sense of the word, postponed for three months. If this were agreed to, he should himself undertake to bring in this bill ; exactly in the same state as it now was, without however being bOund to support all its provi sions, the moment that Parliament met again. Viscount SIDMOUTH regretted that the Bill had not been brought forward at an earlier period, and was convinced that much disappointment, would be felt in various Parts of the country, at its being delayed. was, impossible however for him not to comply with . the proposal of the Noble and Learned Earl, and not to express his satisfaction at finding that he would bring - in a Bill on the subject., The LORD CHANCELLOR did not undertake to bring in a Bill on the subject, but the same Bill, in order that being introduced at an early period, there should be a full opportunity for collecting information and for discussion. The Marquis of, LANSDOWN acquiesced, from the na ture of the case, in the course ploposed. He understood, how ever, that the Noble Viscount wished to make some amend ments in the Bill, and suggested the propriety of their being made before the Bill was postponed. • The Earl LIVERFOOL and Lord REDESDALE approved oT' the suggestion. The Bill might then be printed with its amendments, and circulated through the country, which would have a full opportunity of considering the measure. The House then went into the Committee, and the amend nients having been proposed and agreed to, the House resumed, and the Bill was ordered to be pririted as amended. The Englisfcand Irish Insolvent Debtors' Bills went respec tively through Committees, and were ordered to be printed. On the motion of the Marquis of •LAXST)OWN, a message was ordered to be sent to the Commons for a copy of the Re port of the COmmissioners on the Holyhead Road;—Adjourned.. HOUSE OP COMMONS. The SPEAKER was summoned to the House.of Peers. On his return he informed the House that the Royal Assent had been given by Commission to the Loan Bill, the 111-Treatment of Cattle Bill, andother Bills; for which,tsee the Lords. A Person from the Commisgoners of Sewers presented Ac counts of the Sums received and expended by the said Com mission.—Ordered to lie on the table. A Bill for regulating the Duties on Stamps in Ireland w as brought in, read a first, and ordered to be read a setond time to-morrow. ORPHANS' FUND. Mr. T. WILSON brought up the Report of the Committee on the Orphans' Fond Bill. The Report stated the Committee to have inquired into the allegations on which the Bill was founded, and they considered them to be'true. "They had gone through the Bill and made some amendments. Mr. H. SUMMER could not consent to let the Bill pass in its prestnt state. He described the circumstances which had induced him to bring this subject before the House two years ago. lie regretted the absence of an Honourable Baronet who held the situation of Receiver of the Coal Dtities to the Orphans' Fund. He bad objected to the large balances left in his hands ; and it had been ordered that he should only hold the balances for two months. The Honourable Baronet, however, (though in two months the balances would only amount to about 8,0001.), had ever since retained balances to,the amount of 10,0001. He (Mr. H. Sumner), did not see, while the duties of that office were correctly performed by the Deputy for 1001., that it was necessary to keep up the situation, dontirming to him the advantages he now enjoyed. He did not now make any motion, understanding it to be the intention of one of the Mem bers of the City of London to submit to. the House a proposi tion on this s'ubject. Mr. BROGDEN was surprised at the course taken by the Honourable Gentleman, after the inquiry which had taken place, and which, in hi s j u d gment , p rov ed that there Was no thing to impeach the conduct of the Honourable Baronet who had been alluded to. If what had been said on that subject did not amount to calumny, it appeared to him (Mr. Brogden) to go very far that w ay. The arrangement made with respect to the Orphans' Fund, he considered the inquiry to have proved, was the most economical and beneficial that could be adopted. Mr. Alderman WOOD said at the proper time he had a disuse• to propose, which had been put into his hands by his constituents, the object of which was to provide that the pay ments on account of the Orphan's Fund should be made week ' ly, instead of quarterly. Mr. LU4lllNGTON,suggested the propriety of postponing the clause. Mr. BR OGDEN wished the clause postponed, and for this additional reason, that he had understood that it was the inten tion of the Hon. Member for Surrey not to offer any further opposition to the Bill. Mr. H. SUMNER said the Hon. Gentleman who had just spoken made a very broad assertion. with respect to what had fallen from hinron the conduct of an Hon. Baronet. It sur prised him tnhear that he was not expected to oppose the Bill, as, in the presence of that Hon. Gentleman, he had distinctly stated that he would not give up his opposition. Mr. BROGDEN remarked, it had been said that he made abroad assertion ; his assertion was so broad as this, that if the Hon. Gentleman stated him to have known that it was his (Mr. H. Sumner's) intention on this occasion to oppose the Bill, he stated that which was untrue. He put it to his Hon. Friend near him (Sir J. Graham) whether it had not been understood that the Hon. Gentleman intended to decline offering further opposition to the measure. Mr. H. SUMNER said, the Hon. Gentleman had applied the word ' untrue' to what had fallen from him, and he thought it necessary to call for an explanation.—(Heai, hear !) - Mr. BROODEN—And I will give it. I say, that if the Hon. Gentleman asserts`that I knew it to be his intention to oppcae this Bill to-day, he asserts that which is untrue.—(Hear, hear ! cries of Order ! Chair, Chair !) The SPEAKER could only excuse himself for not pre viously interfering, by saying he was sure what had been said was uttered under a mistake. It grew out of a subject on which he was afraid that there had been some warmth else where. He was sure the Hon. Gentleman would admit that he had used language which it was not his intention to use. Mr. BROGDEN had not wished to otlend the House in any way. He had stated that he did not expect the Hon. Gentle man would oppose the Bill to-day. He did not expect that he would do so, and therefore when he saw him get up, and open the whole subject, he had expressed rurprise.—Upon this the Hon. Gentleman had said, that lie matte a broad asser tion, and in answer to this, he had only said, that if the Hon. Gentleman declared him to have known of its being his inten tion 'so to oppose the Bill, he had stated what was incorrect— what was inconsistent with fact. The SPEAKER was now quite. satisfied that what had been said, was uttered under a total misunderstanding of what had fallen from the Hon. Member for Surrey. He had attended to the Hon. Member; and was sure he' understood him. When he talked of a broad assertion having been made, he alluded to the remark of the Hon. Gentleman, that if what had been said with respect to an Hon. Baronet did not amount to calumny, it came very close to it. Mr. SUMNER said, the Speaker had correctly understood him. It was tathat remark that his observation applied. Sir J.' GRAHAM spoke to the correctness of the statement of the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Brogden), that on - Friday he had not expected the lion. Member for Surrey intended to offer further opposition to the Bill. Mr. T. `WILSON said, if the eond,uct of the Hon. Baronet (Sir W. Curtis) was bad, that of the Corpoiation of London was equally bad in tuflering him to hold his office. But he had a palliative to offer. When it was given to the Hon. Baronet the balances were small, they had increased by de grees, and the interest on them, though of importance to an in dividual, had not been considered an object to the Corporation: .A, former ReceiVer had to pay four or five thousand pounds out of his own pockets for sums which would otherwise have been lost to the Corporation. It was therefore necessary, as what had happened once might occur again, to ()Minn good security. The Hon. Member for-Surrey always took adyantage of men tion being made of the Orphans' Fund or the City Lands, to bring forward charges against the Corporation of the City of London, as if those funds were only appropriated to favouring jobs, as if the public derived no benefit from theni. He would ask if the public derived no benefit from the buying off the toll on London Bridge, the building of Blackfriar's Bridge, and the purchase of the toll on that bridge ? Mr. H. SUMNER remembered. that' a hope had been ex pressed on : a former day, that nothing would be said on the bringing up of the Report. He had then said, that if nobody else took it up, he did not I‘ , N)w that he shoul-. offer any obser vations on, the subject. He was _convinced that what had been said was said under a misconception. But he had not pledged himself to support, or not to oppose the Bill; and if he had done so at that time, enough had since occurred to justify him in altering his determination. Mr. BENNET thought the office of Receiver unnecessary. Mr. HUME was of the same opinion. Mr. Alderman WOOD moved, that the word " quarterly" should be struck out of the Bill, preparatory to tilt introduc tion of the clause which he had announced it to be his intention to move hereafter: The House then divided, when thenunibers were— For the Amendment - - - - 14 Against it - - - - - - 37 - AlajoritY in favour of the Clause as originally worded —23 When strangers were re-admitted the SPEAtmt was putting the question that the Bill should be engrossed. On this Mr. H. Su DINER moved, as an Amendment, that the Bill should' be engrossed on that day six month. The House again divided, when the numbers were— For the Amendment . . . . 12 Against it . . . . . . 30 Majority in favour of the Bill . . —lB The Bill was ordered to be read a third time. TURKISTI FRIGATE. Colonel DAVIES rose to correct a misrepresentation which had gone abroad, of some observations which had been made by him relative to the Turkish frigate lying in the river. He should not have considered it necessary to adopt the present pro ceeding, if the misrepresentation had not been accompanied with some comments which, if he had said what had been attributed to him, he would have justly deserved. 'What he had stated with respect to the frigate was simply this—that he had been on board the vessel, and that he had seen a person who was second in command, and who in'formed him that she was to mount 58 guns, which she was to take on board previously to sailing, with military stores in proportion. Ha had never asserted that there were 250 British seamen on board ; there was not one, as far as - he knew from his own observation ; but the person to whom he had before alluded, told him that this vessel would sail with a complement of that, number of men: He still thought that if the attention of Government had not been drawn to the subject,' the frigate would have sailed under the circumstances which he had described ; and he was confirmed in this opinion by a Gallant Adniiral, not now in his place, who had declared to him,up stairs, that-it was originally intended that the frigate should sail furnished with British stores, and manned by Bri tish seamen. _ _ On the motion of the LORD AuvocATE,' the Amendments made by the Lords to the Scotch Jury Bill were agreed to, and the 13i11 sent back to-their Lordships. - Mr. 8. RICE presented a petition from Eusebius Mackille curry against the Irish Coroners' Bill.--Ordered to lie on the table. The Report of the. Committee on' the Means of supporting Irish Commercial Credit was brought up and agreed to, and a Bill ordered. The Report of the East India Company's Loan Bill was brought-up and agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. - - Brimstone Drawback Bill, the Smuggling Prevention Bill, and the Greenland Fishery Bounty Bill, were severally read a secord time, and ordered to be committed to-morrow. The 'Reports of the Silk Bounties, and Queen's Servants' Pensions Bills were brought up and agreed to, and the Bills ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. The Malt Duties Collection Bill went through a Committee, the Report of which was received, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. MR. WOOLER. 'Sir F. BURDETT presented a Petition from Mr. Wooler, at present sufferingitnprisonment in Warwick gaol, on a most important subject—the practice of packing Juries. The Petition set forth that great abuses prevailed, similar (though they had not yet risen to so great a height) to those complained of before the Revolution, and which had cost Charles his life and James his crown. The Petition prayed the House to appoint a Committee to inquire into the manner in which Juries were nominated by the Master of the Crown Office, and to afibrd him an opportunity of laying - before such Com mittee the evidence he had it in his power to produce. Mr. C. W. WYNN did not rise to oppose the Petition. It was perfectly competent for the Hon. Baronet to bring before the House a complaint against any public officer: Ile Ivould only beg to ask, if the Master of the Crown Office had been in formed that such. Petition was about to be presented ? Sir F. BURDETT •said, not that he knew of. Mr. C. W. WYNN would not say that it Was contrary to the duty of the I-Ton. Baronet to bring forwatd such a charge under such circumstances, but he might be excused if he said that it was rather hard on the individual not to have been informed of it, as in that case he might possibly have answered the charge at the time of its being made. Sir F. BURDETT had thought it his duty to present the Petition, and did not see that it was likely todo injury to any one. The Petition was then ordered to lie on the table. On the motion that it should be printed, . Mr. C. W.WYNN appealed to the Hon. Baronet if it would be fair to send forth such a charge printed, without any opportunity having been afforded of giving an Answer to it. If the Hon. Baronet intended to make a motion on the subject, he thought it would be better to defer printing the Petition till he was about to bring forward his motion. Sir F. BURDETT I said it was his intention to bring the subject under the consideration of the House. -He however consented for the present to withdraw his motion for the print ing of th e . petition. Mr. GOLILBURN presented an estimate of the sum which might be necessary to enable his Majesty to take such measures as the exigencies of the affairs in Ireland might require. —Or. dered to be printed. • IRISH CORONERS' BILL. The Report of the Irish Coroners' Bill was brought up. Mr. SPRING RICE moved, that the clause respecting the qualification of Coroners should be omitted. Mr. R. MARTIN thought it desirable that the Coroner should possess the qualification required by this Bill. It was said . this was an ex post facto law. He did not know that' it would be wrong to pass an ex post facto law to effect an im provement in the administration of justice. .11e,'however, con tended that in point of factthis was not an ex post facto law, as several Acts required tlrat such officers, both in England and Ireland, should be capable of such amercements as might be inffictetlon them for their misconduct in office. To omit this clause would be to defeat the object of the Bill. Mr. C. H. HUTCHINSON spoke, but was inaudible. Mr. GOULBUkN thought that the mere fact of a Coroner not being worth 2001. a-year in property.ought not to be a dis qualification. • He hoped the clause would be withdrawn with out a division. Mr. DAWSON said it'was desirable that the Bill should pass with unanimity, and he hoped his Hon. Friend would not press the clause.—The clause was then withdrawn. Mr. RICE made an inaudible observation upon the regula tion of the power of the Cor6ner to serve writs. After a few words •from Mr: R. MARTIN, the Report VMS agreed to, and the bill ordered to be read a third time on Wed nesday. • SCOTCH - PRESS. - Mr. ABERCROMBY rose to withdraw the motion of which he had given notice, for copies of the correspondence between the Lord Advocate and Mr. Hope, relative to the case of Borthwick. From the noise which prevailed . in the gallery; we were unable to collect the reasons which the Hon. Member assigned for withdrawing the notice ; but we understood him to say, that he should renefwit early in th next Session, and that he should - then prosecute the inquiry with all the zeal and ardour in his power. The LORD' ADVOCATE said that it was his intention to afford every information, and all correspondence connected with the case should be preduced. Mr. - ABERQROMBY thou lit it right to say that the Noble Lord had intended.to support his motion. • COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY. Mr. GOULBURN moved the Order of the Day for going into a Committee of Supply. • - ' • • The House having resolved itself into a Committee,a resolu tion was proposed for granting a sum of 9,2301. for defraying the expense of building churches and purchasing glebes in Ireland.' Mr. HUME opposed the vote. He thought that the public had right to pay this money when the Church of Ireland was .overtiowing with riches, and the object was to increase iti nunklicrs. There had been an order made for returns, moved by Right Hon. Member for Waterford, as to the en:rmoits revenues of that Church, and until they saw what those reve: nues were, he would not consent to a vote like the present. The property of the Church of Ireland had been computed as equal to the whole revenue of•the Clergy, independent of tithes ; and at a time of such public misery as the present, he could not con: ceive how the public could be asked to pay the expense of building new Churches. - He hoped' that in the next Session an inquiry would 4 be gone into, in order to bring a portion of that property to meet the emergencies of the State. With these' views he would not grant a shilling from the public motley for such a purpose.:, and he therefore moved the reduction of the whole sum proposed. Mr. (iOULBURN said that he. ihOuld not now enter into the subject, which the Hon. Member had thought proper to open. . Whenever he should bring_ forward his motion, he should be prepared to meet whatever arguments might be brought in support of the proposition that the Church devoured the property'of the country. The present vote was not to he paid to the Clergy, but for building, churches ; and when the. Hon. Member conceived that the church was only for the be nefit of the professors of religion, he would not. find many to support him in his extraordinary opinions. The church was intended for the benefit of the people, and for that reason it was supported. With regard to the distress in Ireland, the vote had been reduced two-thirds on that account. Last yeal% it was 30,000/., now it was under 10,0001. Sir W. DE CRESPIGNY said the time famine and starva tion were prevailing was not the moment for such an expendi ture.of public money. The people ,of Ireland, he was afraid, would not improve From the example of the richer clergy. , Mr. S. RICE, without entering into the question of the ChUrch property, was of a different opinion from the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite. He condemned the policy of build ing churches in remote parts of the country where the mass of the population was Catholic. Nothing could so materially check the progress cf the reformed religion as to build Protes.:, tant Churches in the midst of Catholics, and then tell them they• must pay for their support. Mr. C2W,Vir YNN could not agree with the Hon. Gentleman, unless he could persuade himself that because in a particular place there were only a few 'Protestants, they must be left with- , out a place of worship. Mr. H. GURNEY said it did not follow, because the churches were built, that therefore efforts were made to bring people into the church. Churches were butt with the money voted by Parliament, which were falling into dilapidation, no service being performed in them. Mr. G. BENNET agreed with the Right Hon. Gentleman, that wherever there were Protestants they ought to have the means of public worship ; but the question was where the funds for providing them should be obtained ; whether a sum of 10,0001. should be advanced out of the public money, or whether it should be supplied from one of the richest churches in the world, and one which did less duty, and paid less to the sup port of the poor than any other. He should oppose the vote, until the returns moved for by the Right Hon. Member for Waterford were before the House. Mr. HUME read a letter from an Under Secretary for Ire land, written same time ago, complaining of the conduct of the Commissioners of First Fruits, and asked if any man of common sense would trust any more money in their hand ? Mr. GOULBURN did not know, and. was quite indiffe rent upon knowing, the means by which the Hon. Member had obtained this letter. He knew not whether the Hon. Mem., her had the_ answer to that letter in his pocket, or whether he was aware of the measures which he (Mr. G.) had taken upon the subject, If he were acquainted with those circumstances, it would have been but fair for him to .have stated them. It would then have appeared that the complaint of the letter was full . ) , answered and explained. Mr. MONCK differed from the opinion of the Hon. Member for Aberdeen, as to appropriating, the property of the Church to the expenses of any other branch of the State. But at the same time he thought it applicable to the budding of churches and glebe-houses. The Committee divided— For the Resolution For the Amendment Majority - - - When we_enternd the gallery, we found Mr. S. RICE on his legs, speaking on a grant proposed to the Linen Board. He strongly urged the propriety of spending a part of the vote in extending the linen-manufacture to the South. Where;er. that manufacture was established, there was neither distress nor ills.' turbance. There was not, by the way, a single individual from 'the South of Ireland in the Linen Board. .Sir G. HILL said, that inquiries were making as to the ex tension of the Manufactikre to the South , of Ireland. Mr. HUME was confident that a great part of the vote might be saved. In 1821 the salaries amounted to 5,9211. and these and •other charges, he was assured, would not amount to one-quarter of the present charges, if they had not been defray ed out of the public money. The manufacture was in so flourishing a condition, that it could fairly be called on to con tribute-a share of the expences. The salary of the Secretary was too great, and the expences of his journies unnecessary.— Considerable sums had been spent uselessly in patents and ma chinery, and the distribution of which was, it was asserted, un fairly managed, they being given chiefly to the tenants of the trustees. _ _ _ Sir G. HILL said a few words in explanation. The vote was agreed to. ,The next Resolution was for a sum of 2761. to defray the ad dfcional expences of the Chairman of the Board of Inland Navi gation. Mr. HUME objected to the grant. The publichad just as much right to defray the charges of Waterloo Bridge, as to pay the expences of the Board of Inlind Navigation. Mr. GOULBURN said, the sum granted to the Chairman, and to the Directors of the Board, was not more than would en able them to discharge their duties. The Resolution was agreed to. The sums of 16,4001. for the expences of the Board of Works, and 17,5001. for Printing and Stationery in the Secretary's, Under Secretary's, and other Public Offices, were next voted: The next Regolntion was for a sum of 70001. for the publica tion of proclamations and other public matters, in The Dublin Gazette., and other Papers, Mr. G. BENNET objected to this Resolution. The sums voted under this head were applied to the maintenance of a few Government newspapers, and were,' in fact, a retaining fee to those newspapers. He held in his hands Returns, from which it appeared that proclamations were inserted only in a few ob scure newspapers b while they were withheld from those journals which had the most extensive circulation, but the political opi .riions of which were at variance with those of the Government. In some instances, proclamations made one or two years ago had been inserted in the Government papers. There was another most reprehensible practice to which 'he wished to al lude. It was well known that Solicitors in Dublin were com pelled by the Masters in Chancery to insert advertisements only in particular newspapers connected with the Government. This was a practice most injurious to the interests of their clients. He should move, as an Amendment, that the sum of 2,5001. be substituted for 7,0001. Mr. GOULBURN said, that the circumstance cf old Pre clamations appearing in certain Journals was easily accounted 'for. They were inserted at a time when the Editors, from a dearth of intelligence, had nothing else to fill up their columns, and they . were not paid for again by the Government. As to the selection of particular,newspapers of which the Hon. Mem ber complained, he knew not what act could be left to the dis cretion of the Officers of Government, if they might not chose the papers in which they thought fit to insert Proclamations and other public docurifents - r1!„,., Mr. HUME said, the Right-11A. Gentleman' had not at.- swered the objection of his Hon. Friend. His Hon. Friend had complained that the Proclamations were not inserted in those papers which had the greatest circulation. It appeared from the returns that Carrick's Morning Post paid 1,3001. to Goveinment for stamps in one year, but not one shilling was paid to that paper for the insertion of Proclamations or Go vernment advertisements. On the other hand, The Duncannon Paper, an obscure Ministerial Journal—so obscure indeed, that he (Mr. Hume) had never been able to obtain a copy of it—received 1001. a year from Government for Proclama tibns and advertisements. Only two or three copies of this paper were published, which were left at the Government offices. It was idle for the Right Hon. - Gentleman to contend that the officers of Government ought'to be left to their own se lection, for they had no right to make a selection which was at variance with the public interests. He wished to know from the Right Hon. Gentleman whether Government had net, with in the last year, bought up The Hibernian Journal, and whe ther there was not at this time a set of types in his office not worth 501. for which a large sum had been paid ? He could corroborate the statement of his Hon. Friend '(Mr. Bennet) as to the improper control exercised by Masters in Chancery over solicitors. Mr. Ellice and Mr. Vaughan had been particularly active in exercising this control over solicitors as to the publi cation of advertisements in particular newspapers. He was sorry to observe that system of partiality and persecution, with regard to public Journals, which had been carried to so great an extent in. Ireland, had been in some degree acted upon in this country, and that he had even received the direct sanction of the Right Honourable Gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer. He would state to the Committee a few instances, which would enable them to ju.lge of the persecuting spirit with which this system was carried on in the different de partments.
