WEDNESDAY, MARCH THE Earl of STRATHNIORE (one of the Sixteen Scots Peers) was sworn, and took his Seat. The,Qaths of Allegiance were administered to Mrs. AMELIA WE LTJ I E', relcei of the late Louis WELL!! F, Esq. previoib to the discussion 'of a Bill for her Naturalization. Some routine business was then disposed of ; after which their Lordships adjourned till •to morrow,. when, at half past three o'clock, the LoRD CHANCELLOR comes down w the,House, and a Commission takes place for signifying the Ro}•al Assent to certain Bills 'which have passed both Houses of Parliament. article. In the Bill he wished to introduce, he meant to propose a Clause to empower the !Lord Mayor and Court of Aldermen to exercise that sort of Jurisclielion ,as might enable the Public to purchase Coals at the Pool, and he truatiii it would also appear adviseable that the present praElice at the Coal ExChange should be altered by new regulations. There- were at present four distind Ads against the Combination of Coal Dealers and Owners ; it was his intention to move the repeal of those Ads, with a view of consolidating them, so that Coal Dealers might see at once what the Law was upon this subject. It was also his intention to propose a Clause to prevent the intermixture of Coals in the Port of London. There were already pretty high penal ties against those in the North who •should mix Coals, but this did not prevent such :praflices when Coals were brought into the Port of Lon- - don. The next point to which his 'proposed Bill related was that of Measure. A different prk tice now prevailed in the Port of London in measuring out Coals ; and what he should propose was, that instead of persons resorting to the Coal Meter's Office, each waggonload •of Coals should be accompanied with a measure of three bushels, and to allow every householder to have the opportunity, if he chose it, of measuring any particular sack, at ~his own door, The, Port of London annually received and - paid for about 900,000 Chaldron of Coals, .which was equal to 360,000 Chaldrons Pool Measure. It might also be a fit subjed of consideration, what means could be adopted for bringing other Coal 'into the London Market s which , were now shut out of it ; with this view, he should propose some regulations, ,as to bringing . Coals to London by the Oxford and other Canals.-- He should only add, that he meaot ,to pro pose, if the House should give him: leave to bring in the Bill, that it be printed, and lie on the 'fable for two or three weeks, to give Gentle men sufficient opportunity of considering its pro visions. He then_moved for leave to bring in a Bill for repealing.several Ads now in force for preventing combinations amongst Coal owners, and also for preventing frauds and abuses in the Coal Trade, in the Port of London. Mr. BURDON made .some observations on the general nature of. the Coal Trade, and vindicated the condu6l .of the Coal-owners in the North. There were many taxes upon the introduaion of Coals into the Port of London, and he thought the Coal owners of the North were entitled to claim the' protdlion of the House, not to suffer such arrangements to be introduced with respea • to Inland Navigation, as would prevent Coal. owners in the North from - the right of sending their Coals to a fair Market. The Coal Trade was the best nursery for the Navy, and on this account also it'deserved encouragement. Mr. WALLACE was of opinion, that the measure propoSed, however useful as one of regulation, would not - be effedull to "p i. reVent the recurrence of the evil. The present ystem of the Coal 'Trade "he :ebnillie. - tet• Ttmda. - mentally Sad, nor could :the ; labia diva-icy: security till the monopoly was' drot°3ll".d,' 'Whi ch. was' at present. engrossed _by .of Durham and Northumberland. eonsider ed the limitiltio'n of Vold& in the North as a great source of evil. - The Coal-u%iners itad en. tered into combinations for purposes of their own, tending to facilitate every speculatiOn and fraud, and leading to all the exorbitarddeinandi,.whieh had been made upon the Public for the. article of 'Coals. He did net wish to see' the prospetty - of one part of the Country founded upon the - injury which was done to another part. No more could be reasonably desired by the Coal-ownera'of the North than a fair compensation for the, labour, expeoce, and risk which they run; •nor : did he think that• it was doing them an injury; in:grant 'ing permission to brihg in Coal's into the:Port of London from other quarters, - when Coals were raised.to.an exorbitant price. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR OPiecated- a discussion upon this subject at present, as. it had.no connec tion with the Motion . before the House.—ln answer to what the lion. Member had stated, he thought he could proVe; at the .proper time,' that the iimitation,Of the' Nrend,'entegd into by the Coal 7 owners, was the most effectual method . :foe the sieady, regular supply of that article, and for preventing Coals from being at twice the, price whibi they at present bore. But th - ough he dis-• agreed with the 'lion. Gentleman,' it was not his intention at present to argue the matter. .'MEMBER remarked on the ,thinness p€ the House, and moved that the House be 'counted upon which Strangers-were , ordered.to withdraw: Upon our re-admission into the Gallery, there being more than forty Members present, we found Mr, MANNING -on his, legs :•te :- moved for leave to s bring 'in a Bill to . prevent frauds.in the admeasurement of Coak, &c. ..; Leave was given to bring, in the Bill, and Mr. MANNING, Mr. ,BURDON . - and Mr. WAiLicx were ordered to prepare and bring in the same, Mr: BRAGGE moved, that several Alls pass!. ed.last Session of Parliament in Ireland, relative to the' Duties upon - Wine, &c. should be read. Mr. BRAGGE then moved; " That this House to-mOrrow reiolire itself into 'a Commit tee, to consider of the said Ads."—Ordered. Most .of the othr Orders of the Mifwer: :lien postponed.. The Circler of 'the Day . being read for the House to resolve itself into a Committee upon the Poor Bill, a Motion wks.made• to count the House, • and • there not •being forty Members pre_ sent, the House adjourned at half past six o'clock till to-morrow.

In ansu:'er to a question by Mr. WHITBREAD, Mr. STEELE said, that there was no altera tion or amendmetit introduced into this Bill from similar ones of former years, but merely such as were necessary to adapt it to the circumstan ces of the Union between the two Kingdoms. Mr. IVIIITBREiID said, lie understood that it was the, custom in ,the Army, when a Soldier was brought up to receive punishment, for a Sur geon to stand by, and to give his opinion how much Human Nacure-was capable to bear, after which ' the' Soldier was remanded to a future time, to receive the remainder of his punishment. He thought it was shocking to Humanity that a man should be brought out to receive punish ment a second time for ' the same offence.—He also underitood that there were in Regiments two sets of Cats, so called, of greater or less size, and that it was at the discretion of the Com manding Officer, with which oftheie two instru_ meats the punishment should be inflkled.—This was a matter which he thought should not be com mitted to the discretion of the Commanding Officer. Mr. STEELE, said, that having bad the Honour of commanding a Militia Regiment, he .had had opportunities of seeing punishments in flided; It was true that it was - usual for a Sur geon -to stand by whilst punishment was infliaed, lest the culprit's life should:be endangered ; but he believed there were very few instances of the same. mates being brought up a second time to receive punishment. But as the subjed Was of a delicate nature, he would submit it, whether it would not be .better to leave some discretion with . the Commanding Officer, as the culprit's fear of,bcing brought out a second time, might operate as a powerful check, whereas, 'did he certainly know that he could only be punished once, he might contrive so to weaken himself, that it might only be advisable to iOia upon, him a ,smaller punishment than his offence re-, quired. As to t i tle Cat, he had -never known of two different sorts of such instruments. It' was - the duty of the , Drum_Mailar to prepak. them, ' wh was responsible on that head.. Mr. WHITB RE-A D obserVed, that the Right Hon. Gentleman had said the instances of the . same man's receiving punishment twice were but rare, but he thought it better that no such stances existed ; and if .he was Well informed, there were instances of the same Soldier's being brought out oftener than twice for the same offence, and he knew from-good authority that instruments of different severity were in use. Gen. TA RLETON deprecated any interference of the House upon these points. He declared that in no Service in which he had been engaged, had he seen two Cats-. It was 'necessary that a Commanding Officer should obtain authority both by fear and love, and therefore if a man was brought out a second time, he thought it better to leave it wholly to the decision of the Officer as to the infliction of punishment, end that this dis'eretionnry power should not be taken from him by'any interference on the part of the House. A Clause was afterwards proposed, and agreed to, putAing persons employed in the Corps of Royal Artificers, Gunners, and Engineers, with in the provisions 'of the Bill.—The House being resumed, the Bill, with Amendments, was, brought up, and the Report ordered to be received ,to morrow, The Marine Mutiny Bill was also reported, and the Report'ordered to be received to-niorrow. Sit F. BURD'ETT moved, r( That a 'sufficient number of the 'Minutes of .the Examination of the 'Witnesses examined yesterday at the Bar of the House, be printed for the use 'of the Mem bers." .COAI. TRADE Mr. MANNING said; he rose, :pursuant to the notice he had given, for The, purpose of moving for - leave - to - bring in,a- Hill for the better regula tion of the Coal Trae;' about a twelve-month ago, tie had moved for Committee to inquire into the state of thai Trade.--,That Committee ' had paid everrattention to the stibje&, which appeared - in twb Reports that were made. He had been induced to make that Motion in con sequence of the high price of Coals in 1799, arid I Soo. -At a meeting of the CQal Owners in the North, it had heen;admitted-by- them, that they saw with regret, the price,• of Coals in the Port of London higher i than the value of'the commo dity required.. At the' same,time he understood, that there ~had been an agreement amongst the Coal Owners, not to ship any more during the , year' than ascertain proportion, the tendency of which ResolutiOn was, to stint the market, and to,cause the price to be considerably advanced.to • the Public. He understood chat it was customary for the. Coal Owners in the North to charge. the - high price upon the mal-pradices of the Dealers in itheSouth, whilst those in the South iniphted it to a _combination amongst ,the Owner's in the North.
