SAVINGS' RANKS, Mr-Rose moved tor leave to brine; 'in a Bill for regulating the provident institution of Savings' Banks. Sir CIIAhLES MONC, thought they already pos sessed sufficient legal powers for the management of those institutions. Mr. Conwast could not hot express his fears, that the plan which the 11. ght Hon. Gentleman had'proposvd, how laudable scorer his intentions might L he,, and he by no means meant to Tiestiop them,, was totally ittadetpt s te to relieve the wants and distresses which the great body of the la bouring clusses • now ssafsred. There Must be somenteasme- adopted, and that as speedily us possible, for diminishing the present heavy bur;- dens of the landed proprietors, and throwing; them more generally on the property of the country. Mr:,Rusu, in reply to what had fallen front the Hon. Getqlematt, respecting the idea of imposing on the country, felt great ;unxiety that it should not go forth to the public, that. the - Poor Rates would be•ctinsiderably dinintidted by the meattnre be 'now ,ptokoscd, He m e rely d eeme d i t to be understood, that, as far' as it %veto, it would tend tO afford very great relier; Without this Bill, i,t seas impossible that those institto ions could nrOs per ; trirt he .was folly convioced, whatever, some 'Gentlemen mi 3 h: think, that very esseutial'adran tages would result frtim enetwraging the poor to save sorne part of their turniugs, He could speak from experience on this suhject„ and from facts which had come ander. WI own immediate eye. lie had a number of people about hint who con iributed: a shilling a week to'•one of the)te Sasiogs' ganiti; and they contriboted that: small portion of their - Waget cheerfully. If Gentlemen, therefore, ritodd only unite, and'exert their utmost mica yours to proulOte the benevolost object of these institinlons, 'they would • render a most e , setrtial 'service to the country, not only by diminishing the present wants;ami distresses of the labouring . poor, but also by teaching thent.to rely in tutuie on themselves for happiness and indrpendenee, • MrAirmaaktpoxots saidi that his Right Hon. Friend proposed , to introduce a system which would teach the poor what they were capable of doing by their own exettions. Ile, theref,ae, really felt that this Was one of the class of things for which he, the House,, and the Country, were extremely indebted to the 'Right lion. Gentle min. The four Laws, no doubt, were a very heavy burden is these4intes,littit it wet rather the• administration of those hosts than the laws them selves which had r,rodnced::the evil. If the urea sure which his Right Hon. Friend propoaeshild,no,. - thing more it was notch-if brought the principle into action which should gradually show the pm.. pl c that they were capable of doing that for thern• • selves which they now culled upon the country 'to do. When it was said that the Poor Latrs bad' done no good-m-why, they had done more gtiod than any other ins:itution in , any other country. Every person 'in distress knew. Where to go to have his wants supplied ; every one knew that his wants would be supplied.— The Poor antes, therefore, had been productive, of infinite good, bad prevented the most calm mitoon evils. Mr. LOCKHART conceived, ,that it was intpoh.
