AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS.
The Earl of LAUDERDALE mowed that a mes-
sage should be wilt to the House of Commons,
requesting a copy of the Select Committee of that
House to inquire into the distressed state of the
agriculture of the United Kingdom.—Agreed to.

Lord EILIKINIL presented four Petitions com-
plaining of agricultural distress, and praying for
relief; two from the Occupiers of Land in the
County of Gloucester, one from the County of
Wilts, and the other from the County of Kent.
The Noble and Learned Lord said, that on a for-
mer occasion when he had presented similar Peti-
tions he had observed that it would be premature
for him to say any thing on presenting them, as the
subject was under the consideration of a Committee
of the other House of Parliament ; but it was pre-
mature no longer, as that Committee had made
their report, in which they admitted the distress,
and distinctly admitted it was caused by the glut
of foreign wain ; but instead of remedying the
evil, they propose to aggravate it, by opening the
ports when the price of grain should be 70a. in-
stead of at the present Asterisms 803, without
providing a sufficient protecting duty. He would
rather the law on the subject should remain us it
war, than the change proposed by the Committee
should take place. He was aware that their Lord-
ships could not originate a law on the subject, but
he trusted ►hey would reject any Bill from the other
House of Parliament grooodrd on the Report, as
lie was convinced it would not grunt relief.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, he was sorry to
be obliged to remind the Noble sod Learned Lord
that his observat were irregula►, as the Report
was not before their Lordships ; ■ siiessege had
lice', sent to the other House of Parliament fo► it,
on the motion of a Noble Earl (Lauderdale), but
ID answer had not been yet received.
The Petitions were then read, and laid on the
table.

ceivers of Sio!en Goods Asuelidovent Bill. were
read the thud time, passed, and befit to the House
of Commons.
