__BILL

On the motion for the thirst reading of this bill,
Lord NONTEAOLE expensed it hope that this measure
would teed to an alteration of the whole .v.tem of licensing.
w.sho,l t, kno•.v the aniount of drawhact. that would be
pay thie on the wine ia this country, at the time of the
prer‘jr,4 of the reg.lutioos of the House of COGITIMIII; also,
whet,. -r ..mr negotiations were piing on with a view to ob-
tain from !spain and Portugal r,sluctioos of ditty on our
arusu !Act u ran ; and also wbethor the revenue derived front
malt and ►ops was likely to be affected by the increased
consumption .4 wire.
Lord -DENMAN remarked on the opening to fraud which
the bill would afford by multiplying the number of so-called
refreshment ►oases. He anth:ipated that the increased
facilitiei fur the a•de of wine would seriogaly affect the me-
sumpti..n of laser. 'Me result would be to alter the eta.
mete, ,4 t►e people of this country, and introduce habits
of sll•,ue. and dissipation. He moved th.it the bill
be revel a third time that day six month..
The Earl of DONOCOHNORE supported the amend-
neat. The hill ought to have been separated into two parts
—ore imposing new license duties—the other relating to
pub, r •platios; bet the Cha: welt* of the Exchequer had
refus.-! to .!n so.

ever that thts was a supply bill ; and no doubt whatever
that several datum. of the hell were such as ibis house, if it
eland .•1 it. strict rights, might rejoet or an.-ugh such as,
for ii..tance. the 40th and 41st clauses, which related to
police ,eguLatisets. But he for one was md prepared to
support any ....sth course of proceeding in thin rage, thinking
ea he did that the rerrulations were salutary ones ; at the
same time be it r ht, as the subject had bees
isenti nod in the home, to call the atteutioo of the govern-
ment t.s the point.
