Town Hall, l'Of 1, 1g36. /fr - • " MEMORIAL PRESENTEff TO THE TOWN COUN -CIL OF LIVERPOOL, ON THE 3d FEBRUARY 1836. A_ tiE undersigned IN SIIRANC E COM PAN lES, interested in, the safety of the Mercantile part of the town of Liverpool, beg to call the attention of its civil authorities to the continued procrastination ofthose measures of precaution for extinguishing ["ties which have been so long expected from the patriotism and foresight of its corporation. The Fire Insurance Companies have bs‘n led to expect, many years past, but more particularly since February, 1833, that measures would be taken for providing an adequate supply of Water, in case of Fire, to the lower districts of the town—Suf ficient measures for a supply of Water have not yet been taken. They -have likewise been pr used that an act of P ar li a ment should be applied for to ame the present act auth or i s i n g the establishment of a Fire Poli and Engines, with a view to give a power of recovery of the expense of extinguishing a Fire against the proprietors of tte property on fire, and that immedi ately endangered; so that the bnrthen of such expense should fall on the parties really benefited.—lnstead of this the reim bursement is now made to depend exclusively on the voluntary liberality of the Insurance, Offices. The Fire Insurance Companies conceive that they cannot re cal the attention of the civil authorities of Liverpool to this sub ject at a better time than the present, when the city o f N ew York has just had its mercantile district reduced to ashes, and experienced the full effect of the fury of a conflagration which has not only devastated a space quite as large and well-built as the warehouse district of Liverpool, but destroyed the credit and and resources of its principal Liverpool, Companies. The undersigned Companies, therefore, trust that this impor tant subject will now be taken into serious consideration by the civil authorities of Liverpool, as the rates of premium now charged are inadequate to meet an extensive conflagration iu the warehouse district.

CLERK OF TUE ARRAIGNS ON THE WESTERN CIRCUIT.— The office of Clerk of the Arraigns on the Western Circuit has become :vacant in consequence of the death of Mr. Chambre, by whom it was filled a great number of years. Mr. Baron Gurney, who- was the senior judge on the last circuit, has claimed the right of appointment, as the vacancy occurred before the next circuit was appointed, and has conferred the office on his son, Mr. Sidney Gurney, who has lately commenced practice at the Chancery Bar. Mr. Justice Littledale has, however, disputed theoight of Mr. Baron Gurney to the ap pointment, on the ground that he had been appointed the senior judge for the next circuit before the vacancy occurred, and that therefore Mr. Baron Gurney s connection with the last circuit had entirely ceased. As neither of the learned judges was in clined to give way, both being equally anxious to have the dis posal of the office, the matter was submitted to the other judges for their decision, and yesterday their lordships gave their opinion in favour of Mr. Baron Gurney. This occasioned a delay in appointing the days for holding the assizes in the circuit. —Morning Chronicle.

E-mpEriat Varlianicnt. HOUSE OF LORDS, THURSDAY, FEB 4. This day his Majesty opened the session in person. The in terior of the house presented a very elegant and animated ap pearance. Though the day was rainy, cold, and uncomfortable; yet we have never, on any sitnilar occasion, witnessed a greater display of female beauty and fashion. The attendance of peers was nutnerous,,and the muger of the corps diplomatique was un usually great. Soon after two o'clock his Majesty, attended by the great officers of state, entered the house, and the attendance of the Commons having been required by the Gentleman Usher of the Black Hod, the Speaker, attended by a very large number of members, immediately appeared at the bar. His Majesty then proceeded to read.his speech, but owing to the haziness of the atmosphere and the darkness of theadace in which the throne is situated; his Majesty was unable to decipher the speech, without. great difficulty, and he was compelled to pause sever'al times. -, ,At length, when his Majesty had got about half way through the siteech, tapers were brought in by :he libra rian, Mr. Leary. His Majesty said, with great promptness" My Lords and Gentlemen, I have been prevented, not being able to see, from reading this speech as I ought; but I trust that by now reading it again, I shall be able to call the attention of your lordships and of the gentlemen of the House of Commons to the various topics which it contains." His Majesty then, in an audible voice, proceeded to read the following most gracion. speech, which we published on Friday in a second edition of the LIVERPOOL STANDARD. " MY LORDS AND OENMENIEN t " It is with great satisfaction that I again meet the great Council of the nation assembled in Parliament. lam ever anxious to avail myself of your advice and assistance, and I re joice that the present state of public affairs, both at home and abroad, is such as to permit you to proceed, without delay or interruption, to the calm examination or those measures which will be, submitted to your consideration. " I continue to receive front my Allies, and generally from all Foreign Powers, assurances of their unaltered desire to cultivate with me those friendly relations, which it is equally my wish to maintain with `•them ; and the intimate union which happily subsists between this country and France, is a pledge to Europe for the continuance of the general peace. "Desirous on all occasions to use my friendly endeavours to remove causes of disagreement between other Powers, I have offered my mediatiiin •in order to compose the difference which has arisen between France and the United States. This offer has been accepted by the King of the French; the answer of the President of the United States has . not yet been received; but I entertain ,a confident hope that a misunderstanding be tween two nations so enlightened and high , minded; will be set tied in a manner satisfactory to the feelings, and consistent with the honour , of beth. • " I have still to lament the continuance of the civil Contest in the Northern Provinces.of Spain. The measures which I have taken, and the engagement into which I have entered, suffici ently prove my deep anxiety for its termination; and the pru dent and vigorous - conduct of the present Government of Spain inspires me with the hope that the authority of the Queen will soon he established in every part of her dominions; and that the Spanish nation, so long connected by friendship with Great Britain, will again enjoy the blessings of internal tranquillity and union. " I have given directioni`lhat there be laid before you the treaty which I have concluded with the Queen of Spain for the suppression of the slave trade. " GENTLEMEN OF THE House OF COMMONS; " I have directed the estimates of the year to be prepared, and laid before you without delay. They have been framed with the strictest regard to well-considered economy. " The necessity of maintaining the maritime strength of the country, and of giving adequate protection to the extended commerce of my subjects, has occasioned some increase in the estimates for the naval branch of the public service. " The state of the commerce and manufactures of the United Kingdom is highly 'Satisfactory. I lament that any class of my subjects should still suffer distress; and the difficulties which continue to be felt in important branches of agriculture may de serve your inquiry, with the view of ascertaining whether there are measures which parliament can advantageously adopt for the alleviation of this pressure. " MY LORDS AND GENTLEMEN, " I have not yet received the further report of the commission appointed to consider the state of the several dioceses of England and Wales. But I hay° reason to believe that their recom mendations upon most of .the important subjects submitted to them are nearly prepared:. They shall be laid before you with out delay, and you will direct your early attention to the eccle siastical establishment, with the intention of rendering it more efficient for the holy purposes for which it has been instituted. "Another subject, which will naturally occupy )our attention is the state of the Tithe in England and Wales, and a measure •will be submitted to you, having for its end the rendering this mode of providing for the Clergy more fixed and certain, and calcu lated to relieve it from that fluctuation, 'and from those objec tions to which it has hitherto been subject._ "The principles of tOleratimi by which I have been invari ably guided, Must render me desirOus of removing any cause of offence or trouble to the consciences of any portion of my sub jects, and I am therefore anxious that you should consider whether measures may not be framed which, whilst they re medy any grievances which affect those who dissent from the doctrine or discipline of the Established Church, wilt also be of general advantage the whole body of the community. " The speedy and satisfactory administration of justice is the first and most sacred duty of a. Sovereign, and I earnestly re commend you to consider whether better provisions may not be made for this great purpose in some of the departments of the law, and more particularly in the Court of Chancery. " I trust that you will be able to effect - a just settlement of the question of tithe in Ireland, upon such principles as will tend at length to establish harmony andpeace iu that , count ry. "You are already in possession , of the Report of the Com mission appointed to inquire into the state of the Municipal Corporations in Ireland, and I entertain the hope that it will be in your power to apply to any defects and evils which may have been shown to exist in those Institutions, a remedy founded upon the same principles as those of the acts which have been already passed for England and Scotland. " A further report of the Commission of Inquiry into the con dition of the poorer classes of my subjects in Ireland will speedily be laid before you. You will approach this,subject with the caution due to its importance and difficulty, and the experience of the salutary effect by the act for the Amendment of the Laws relating to the Poor in England and Wales, may in many respects assist your deliberations. " I rely upon your prudence and wisdom, and upon your de termination to maintain as well as to amend the laws, and in stitutions of the country; and I commit these questions of domestic policy, to which I have deemed it my duty to direct your attention, into your hands, persuaded that you will so treat them, as to increase the happiness and prosperity, by , promoting the religion and morality, of my people." Baron Cottenham, the recently-appointed Lord Chancellor, and Baron Langdale, the new Master of the Rolls, were intro duced, in the usual form, by Lord Denman and Lord Glenelg. The house was then adjourned during pleasure. THE ADDRESS. The Lord Chancellor took his seat and the woolsack at five o'clock. Soon afterwards, Viscount MELBOURNE moved the order of the day for considering an address in answer to his Majesty's • speech from the throne. The Limo CHANCELLOR then read the speech, which was repeated by the clerk at the table. The Duke of LEINSTER moved the address, which was se conded by the Earl of Burlington. The Dike of WELLINGTON admitted the great importance of the speech which had been delive re d f rom the throne, and of the subjects embraced in that speech, as calculated to produce a deep interest in parliament and throughout the country. There was one part of it, however, to which he felt a strong ob jection. It was that which related to the municipal corpora tions of Ireland, and which went to pledge the house to the adoption of certain principles, contrary, as he maintained, to -the usages of parliament. It was not usual for the sovereign to indicate the principles upon which they should proceed to deal with any measure. The paragraph to which he objected was the following:—" You are already in possession of the report of the commission appointed to inquire into the state of the muni cipal corporations in Ireland; and I entertain a hope that it will be in your power to apply to any defects and evils which • may have, been shown to exist in. those institutions a remedy founded upon the same principles as those of the acts which hare already passed tOr England and Scotland.'!. After argu ing at some length in supp or t of the position already stated, the noble duke submitted an amendment in these voids :—" That being already in possession of the report of the commission ap pointed to inquire into the state of the municipal corporations in Ireland, we will proceed without delay to the consideration of any defects or ev il s w hi c h m ay have been shown to exist in these institutions, for the purpose of obviating them to ensure the impartial administration of justice." It was possible that the same principles which applied to England and Scotland might not apply to Ireland; and he hopeu that his majesty's ministers would agree to the amendment for the reasons he had assigned. Lord MELBOURNE defended the course pursued by ministers in the paragraph to which the noble duke had objected. He did not consider the course unusual; but, whether supported by precedent or not, he maintained that it was not unreasonable to suggest to parliament the principles upon which they should proceed. The words objected to by the noble duke had been well considered, and were adopted with a view to prevent those very objections which the noble duke had felt himself called upon to make. He would say that, in fact, there was not a material difference between the words contained in the address originally and those then proposed to be inserted by the noble duke in lieu thereof. The one paragraph was no more binding on their lordships than the other, and, therefore, he thought it would be more respectful to his majesty to adhere to the address as originally moved, than to retain or add the words proposed, which, after all, he conceived, conveyed the same expressions as those which had been given front the throne. The Earl of WINCH ILSEA declared his intention of supporting the amendment, but regretted that it did not go far enough. He was anxious to record on the first day of the session his decided opposition to the policy of the (present ministers, both foreign and domestic—a policy which he considered directly at variance with the high feeling of this great nation. He aescrilied the course adopted by ministers as tending directly to the subversion of the constitution, and referred, in pointed terms, to the origin and progress of the French revolution, in -order to show that the same spirit and the same principles were at work in this country. His lordship concluded, afire adMitting the import ance of coming to a unanimous vote on the address, it' possible, by seconding the amendment moved by the noble duke. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE was so impressed with the im ,portance.of coining, if possible, to a unanimous decisicn, that he was willing to make some sacrifice. I-ia therefore revised that his n'ohle friend should agree to the amendment, on an ex press tindersttinding, however, that it should cot prcclu,ie th,ni FIB RURAY 9. 18- from applying the principles alluded to in case it should be con , sidered expedient. Lord MELBOUIiNF having acquiesced in the suggestion, the address, as amended;, vas agreed to. The Earl of SHAFTESBUL:Y was elected chairman of com mittees for the session, and returned thanks - to the hoOse for having appointed him for the 27th time to till that office. Adjourned at half-past twelve o'clock. - HOUSE OF COMMONS.-THUMDAY. The Speaker entered the house about a quarter before two o'clock, when the were about two hundred audfilty members present. New writs were orderred for the following places, viz.:—Mal ton, in the room of the Lord Chancellor; Devizes o in the room of Sir P. C. Durham; South .Division of Leicestershire, in the room of Mr. F. 'lurner • and the City of Glasgow , in the room of Mr. Colin Dunlop; thei last three members having accepted the Chiltern Hundreds. NEW CORPORATIONS. Mr. E. J. STANLEY gave notice that he would, on Monday, (yesterday,) move for leave to bring in a bill to indemnify per sons holding certain offices in corporations. Several other notices. of intended motions were given by different lion. members on various subjects. Alr. WM. ENVA.trr gave notice of motions on the following subjects:—first, the re-appointment of the committee. of last session on arts and Manufactures; second, leave to bring in a bill to allcw felons to he defended by counsel; third, a bill ~res pecting the equal division of the landed property of persons dying intestate, betweett males and females; fourth, a bill . 0- ,equalise the duties on East and-West India.sugar ; and fifthly and laStly, that when the sessional orders were read he should, among other things, move that no new business fill mild he pro ceeded with after eleven o'clock at night. (llearatri a -laugh:) zeta ADDRESS. The Speaker having read his .lajest.y's speech, - Sir JOHN WROTTESLEY moved the address, which was seconded by Mr. PARKER, the member for Sheffield. Sir Roemer PEEL-took a luminous view of the various topics alluded to in the speech then under discussion. -He rejoiced in. the increased commercial intercourse between this country and . France, and in the prospect of an amicable adjustment of the differences between that country and America. With respect to Spain he could vot congratulate the house on the mode of our interference -in the domestic disturbances of that country, and he regretted deeply that his Majesty had ever granted permis sion to hiS subjects to enter into the Spanish serVice. The speech from the throne contained a direct allusion -to " the prudent and vigorous conduct of thepresent government of the Queen of Spain." He regretted to find such a paragraph, be cause an interference in 1530 in favour of tha Kiug of Holland had been censured by the highest authority on the opposite side of the house. By promulgating the opinion contained in the speech, we were establishing or confirming ,a precedent of in ' terferenee in the affairs of other countries... Notwithstanding assurances of continued peace found in the speech, they had been told of the necessity of increasing the navy estimates. Sir Robert then alluded ta the proposed changes relative to the duties of thtsLordChaticellor ; it was trotter him to inquire why the confidence of the crown was not - continued-- to- Lord Brougham, the late•holder of that hieli judicial office. (H ear , hear.) It was enough for him to know that another arrange ment was made. That arrangement continued almost up to the meeting of parliament, and was not altered until after the appearance of -a pamphlet by Sir Edward Sugdeu. (Cheers from the opposition benches.) The appoint ;nents which artsre subsequently made might not stand in the relation of cause and effect to that pamphlet; but to the world it appeared as, if never a pamphlet had beerrmore efficient, for it seeMedlo liavescon , furred two or three offices, and to have created tw9,4)47 three ' peerages. ( Hear, hear, and laughter.) His Majesty'S speech also referred to thrsmeasuists arch were to be introduced into parliament on many matters of important domestic concern. It referred to all of them, with one exception, in a manner which was not calculated to invite any opposition. With respect to the state of tithe in England and Wale, it suggested the pro priety of takingit into immediate consideration. It laid down no principle on *lnch the measure was to be founded—it called for no declaration of opinion from the house as to the mode of dealing with it. He,. had himself -introduced into parliament las session a meastitte founded on the principle of voluntary , commutation. The noble lord opposite dissented from the prin ciple of that measure, and declared that no measure would be satisfactory which did not include a - compulsory obligation to compound. He (Sir R. Peel) thought that it would be a matter of difficulty to revncile the principle ofcompulsion with justice to the tithe payer and tb the tithe owner. The right hononi able baronet after reading that Paragraph of the King's speech referring to the Irish municipal corporations, said that he could not assent to an addreis echoing that declaration, as 'he should be contracting an obligation to apply the same principle of re form to the inunicipalcorporations of - Ireland, as had heeu applied to those of England and Scotland. He would give no pledge on this subject apart,from all consideration of its merits--to propose an address, pledging the'house to measures of which the mi nisters were cognisaut, While the house was ignorant ; to call upon the house with Out notice, to pledge itself as to the course which it would pursue hereafter, was, in his opinion, as amfair as it was unwise. (Loud cheers.) After referring to the course pursued on the catholic question and' various other measures. which had been carried without - being alluded to from the throne, and to'which the house not beets pledged by au address to his Majesty, he asked, what was the course which it was now going to take'Swith respect to the appropriation question ? (Hear ' hear.) That continued a principle to which a majority of the House of Commons assented, and on which they record ed a deliberate opinion, " that no measure upon the subject of tithes in Ireland Could lead to a satisfactory and final adjust ment which did not embody the principle determined on in the resolution of tire 23rd of March." Had the, hon. mover in his speech called upon them to repeat their assent to that princi • ple? (Loud-cries of hear.) No, wisely, he had not. ' (Hear, hear.) He referred not to his omission of it by way of taunt, for he thought that the omission of it was rightly -and properly . made. .(Hear, hear.) However firmly the minds of hon. gen tlemen might be made up on that principle, although it had been asserted and ratiTied by a majority, more than once, he thought they had acted wisely in not calling for a repetition of their opinions upon it on the very first day of the present session. If, then, you pursue this course of the appropriation-question = if you do not call on us for a renewed •acquiescence in that .admitted principle, why have you not the same forbearance to wards us upon the Irish Municipal Reform Bill? (Hear, hear.) You say that you have read tire report, and the documents at tached to it. You advise the delivery of a. speech front the -throne at two o'clock on Thursday,- and at half-past four on the same day.you call on the house to give a pledge as to the pre cise'principles which it will pursue in working out that reform_ Was that fair, honest, and impartial.dealing ? They might tell him he was in possession of the report of the Irish Corporation Commissioners, and that was perfectly true; but what then:? Was it of a nature to enable him to snake no his mind on the• subject without any further consideration? 'Why, the commis sioners themselves, advantageously circumstanced as they were fur coming to a decision, studiously avoided expressing in their report any decided opinion. We were in possession of theiire port, and if, based upon the ample inquiries of the commission ers, it contained a deliberate and reasonable suggestien of a comprehensive remedy for existing evils, he could easily con ceive hon. gentlemen opposite might call upon him to acquiesce in it. But no ground of acquiescence existed. The commis sioners concluded their report by remarking, "We have not thought ourselves authorised to recoil:a:es ad specific measure, of improvement nd necesary observations itiisnr reports ;uolp s i, save so. tar as the notice of and the defect, and cause of evil, tend to suggest th e remedy. But we feel it to be our duty hum bly to represent to Your Majesty, that the early and effectual correction of the existing evils, and the prevention of future mischief, are anxiously desired, and essentially requisite; and that these benefits can be attained only by means of a general and complete reform of the constitution of municipal corpora tions in Ireland." If it were a matter of so much doubt to the commissioners that they abstained from offering any specific re commendation, after a careful examination of the subject, svas. it common - tannest, policy, or justice; with half an-hour's no tice, to call on the house, not only to promise to adopt a specific remedy, but one founded on precisely the same principle as in other cases which might be widely different from the present? Contrast. this part of the address which related to municipal reform in Ireland with the mention of another subject of equal importance to the best interests of the country —compare the phraseology in which the poor-laws and municipal reform were referred to, and you will find the variance so strong, the dis tinction of expression used so remarkable aslo strike one forci bly on hearing it. If with a knowledge of this difference of expression he consented to the pledge now proposed, he should be told at a future ddv, when rising to oppose any details of a bill for a reform of the Irish munkipal corporations, " You are too late; you committed' yourself to the principle of the mea sure by acquiescing in the address, and you cannot now oppose it." It would be added, " See what was said relative to Irish corporations —a specific principle was pointed out; while in the • case of pour-laws parliament was simply invited to approach the subject with caution proportionate to its subject and difficulty, but no particular measure was recommended." It would 6e said that we had raised expectations' with respect to Irish mimi cipal reform which we could not fairly disappoint, and it would be urged that the same principle should be applied to Ireland as to England and Scotland. This argument would be strength ened by a reference to the manner in which poor-laws for Ire land were adverted to in the address.. lie was aware that various opinions had been entertained on that subject, and that the Right Honourable Chancellor of the Exchequer himself had hitherto, as he believed, been opposed to their introduction. Why did he advert to this difference of opinion? Simply be cause the opposition which had been offered showed ,that, in the opinion of some gentlemen opposite, a principle esteemed good for England was not, as a matter of course, necessary for Ire land. The terms in which ministers, spice of ,pssyrslaws for Ireland were cautious and measured, and simply suggested to parliament the propriety of looking to the experience of the effect already produced by the act for the amendment of the laws relating to the prior in England, but in no respect fettered their opinions or sought to tie them down to any fixed principles. The address proposed to thank his Majesty for the, information that a further report of the commission of inquiry into the con dition of the poorer 'classes in Ireland would speedilyliilaid , before the house, and to assure his Majesty that parliament would approach the subject with the caution due to its impor tance and difficulty, and impressed with a conviction that the experience of the salutary effect already produced by the act for the amendment of the laws e lating to the poor in England and Wales might in many respects assist their deliberancns. Why might not they claim the humble privilege of being al lowed to apply the same cautious deliberation to a subject of equal importance and difficulty? Why not treat the question of Irish municipal reform in the same manner us was here suggested in reference to Irish poor-laws ? (Hear, - bear, hear.) Your own address was evidence against the impoliey and in justice of prematurely pledging the house on one point while you abstained'gron another, Did he propose that there should be no reform in Irish municipal corporations? '• Far from it.-- Was he prepared to defend the exact principle on which they -existed and operated ? He was not. But he wished not to en ter upon the question upon this occasion, not doubting that full opportunity would be afforded for discussing it. He now con tented himself with slating his objections to being pledged be forehand to a particular course. He was asked, and so was the house, to promise to apply to Ireland the same principles of municipal. reform which had been already applied in England and Scotland. What were those principles which, without ex ception or reservation, they were called on to affirm ? The de struction of self-election in corporations might he a principle; but could anything be more difficult than to define its precise limits and operation ? You said that the destruction 'of self electidn was one of your principles ; but, he repeated, it was hard to define those principles exactly, and where ajatitude was allowed gentlemen might be entrapped into pledges and conces sions which they never contemplated. In Eaglet'" ; the rate payers at large, in Scotland tine £lO householders, were the constituent body. If he assented to the address and afterwards saw reason to move , on th e introduction of an Irish municipal reforM bill that in Ireland £5O householders should - vote in the election of the corporate bodies, was he to be taken as adhering to or departing from the principles now referred tot? - If he - as sented to the address, reserving to himself the right and power to alter the details of the proposed bill as he pleased, was he not, in point of fact, encouraging delusion ? Ile was prepared n aimetpal reform in Ireland full to give the important sulject of ' and fair considerations, but he reserved to isinis:elf the power of applying his unbiased judgmeet t.o. the ~question. lie ad untied that there must be extettsi‘e alterations in the Irish mu ' tiicipal system, but he was not then going to mit - el- into the see ' rigs or details of the subject. He again objected to liciog called ( Th 'then e ,;; ICI', "T, sued, La .'Lc mew LIQ this ( throt tends this ( injus vita scrib two ( case din t Mi MI hous Alex of C, Ti TI Ares( lain A f were R.
