ante, to furnish the Rouse with a printed account of
the proceedings in the other House. It shoal ihe
remembered. that this Bill was introduced with the
hlanks filled. up, and in this respra. not similar
tither Bills, on choir first reading, which originate
in this House. From them circumstances, he was
induced to hope the Noble Lord would concur with
him, in deterring the second reading fur another
'week.
Mr. TIERNEY endeavoured to refute the ob-
jeftinn of the Hon. Member (General iscoyne),
As to the expedience of delay, by iibsei Ong, this
coestion had already, been a sWij t of debate for
rear fifteen years. He obs-rved, th-re was abun-
dance of time for • meeting of the West India
Planters; and ighe same C tuusel, if it should be
thooglit expedint to hear Counsel on the subjett,
might be employed in this. as in the other House.
pr-sumed, it vioul I be necessary ter the lion.
Gentlemai again to consult his Constitoems, sine.
he had already infor.ned the House. that previous to
the late elation, almost every city, county, or car-
fietrittion, bad intimated their wishes t their Regre-
setitatiees. This, at least, was r.o proof of the ne-
i xesitY of delat, for the dissemination of intUrnoation

Mr. tiABINITON thought a .meeting of the
West India Merchants emit easily be called wit:Sin

HIBISER V then moved, as an amendment,
sr That the second reading be used for this day
mrtnig!tt."
Mr. iIAR.I-IAM. thought the time already suffi-
cient.
Sir 10.11 N NEWPORT though?, that as t
nem, inciple of the Bill had been almost univ,27;
admitted, the objedions of .the Kibbe Earl (Tem.
ple) wore irrelevant to the time ut thesecond reading
of the Bill. as it weal! be a fith,r opportunity to
examine the different bearings of the regulations of
the Kill. preeioiss to going into a Committee en it ;
when, it the House thought proper. its progress
could be as effeStially checked AS at the present
momeat, by refusing to go into the Committee
This. he believed. would be also the more usual
spode.
Mr BATHURST regretted, that as the friends
of the 1 had admitted that some delay was Le-
cessary. Vier- had been no concecsion on the part of
Ministers. In Parliament piwase, he observed, the
second reading of the WII was the adoption of the
measure itself ; it was, theretate, at least material,
that new Members should he acquainted with the
transations of the Upper House, and the reasons
adduced itkfavour of the measure.
LordMONICI: wished, if p ssible, to accommo-
date all sides, particularly the ll,Md.of the mea.e'. ;
but was still of opinion war the cpiesticm might as et .
fectually be discussed in a we, k as a fortnight, as it
WAS abill expressly framed for the purposes cfiennie-
diate a'uottion, and less inciimh-red with detail..th.io

It was no the second reading cat the B-11 the House
athiuld hear Counsel, and then, if tree Bill were•
found objeeionable, it would meet with talc-dis-
cussion, and perhaps rejltion. Ay he wished,-I
above all things, that no pretence should be given
for cavilling, to the enemies of the 11.11, he would,
if the Hon Gentleman withdrew his Am-ndiner.t,
fix the 'scoot' reading for F. Way week ; whieh being
assented In ity Mr. Hitibrrt, the motion, ter tie
second reading on Friday sennight, was put and
carried.
On the motion of the SECR::TARY at WAR.
the secon.l reading of the Mutiny Bull was post-
poned from Friday se'nenglit, till Thursday fol-
lowing.
Tlae Newfmndland Fishery Bi 1 was read a second
time, aid ordered to be committed to-morrow.
The Howe then went into Committee on the
Irish Sugar Drawback Bill, when Sir JOHN NEW-
POE 1' moved a clause, permitting British Planta-
tion Sugar to be warehoused in Ireland The re-
vrt was read and agreed to, and a Bill ordered ac-
cordingly.

FROM THE THEATRF. OF WAR.
At a late hour last night, we received a series of
the n.it,ur, and other Paris Papers, to the 3,1, arid
Dutch Papers to the 7th instant. They con.ain the
49th, 50th, 51st, and 324 Bulletins of the Grand
Army, all dated Warsaw, where B•irs AAAAA e still
remained on the 19th last. Of these Bulletins, the
51st is the most interesting and important. It is
dated the 14th of January, and purports to be an
answer to Genet. .1 Batiormossa's report of the
battle of Pultusk, on the 26th of December. In
• this Bulletin it is expressly stated, that a battle took
pl ice on the same day at G,lymin, in which Gene-
ral Buzuoavose was defeated, and obliged to et,
leaving behind him 100 pieces of ordnance. 1600
I iggage waggons, and all his wounded ; and that
the loss of lissome's. at Pultusk was 3000
killed, and 6000 prisoners. It also states, that th
force opposed to Betretmosam consisted merely o
the corps of Suet's? and LASI4III, and that the
Fr-tich were unable to pursue the enemy in their re-
