d.r t the Hous., an Aceow.t of Places and Pen-

•
&ions. up to the Ist of Ja+mary. 1807.—Ordered to

• Sir JOHN NEWPORT, in pursuance of his
moved for leave to bring in a Bill to secure
the enllceion of the Dries on Andions in Ireland,
and to prevent the hands therein cora-ratted.—
Leave granted accordingly.
Sir JOHN NEWPOR I' stated to the Hnuse,
that, Isom a report of certain Commissioners speci.
fi -ally appointed for the purpose f inquiring into
the quit and Crown-rents in Ireland, there were
certain amendments necessary for the better regn•
laticn of the sale of such; he, therefore, in com-
pliance systh his duty, shored rn6ve foe leave to
bring in a Bill, to amend the Ad for the sale of
His Majesty's quit aid Crown-rents, and other
rents and profits full-cited to the Crown in Ireland.
Grarted.
Sir J0:1N NEWPORT observed, that amongst
the orders of last right, he found one net very
u•ual or ordinary; namely, an order for printing
the Miscellaneous Services in Ireland. As fir as
his k sowledge of the proceedings of the' House had
led him to lorm an opinion, he believed it was the
first time. it WAS thought necessary to have such au
older enforced. The delay and trou:de which such
a proceeding must csette, induced him to tr-unie
the House at present, and to move. 4' That the or-
der for printing be a:sail:dined."
The SPEAKER intimated to the House, that
tie order#ot ptinting was not inadvertently inserted
by the Ord:, but WAS in consequence of a spcc.fic
motion for that purpose, made by an Hon. Gentle-
man (Sir. Johns:one), then in his place, and who
would be phrased to set him right, it he had mis-
conceived the object of his motion on the former
evening.
Mr. JOEINSTONE said, that he certainly did
move for the printing of the Miseetanerms Serric s
far Ireland; and his reason for thus moving, azo.e
from what appeased to bins both corred and dc-
sirable, that Gentlemen may he acquainted with
documents of expenditure, in which items of a
large amouat were inserted. He alluded to the
item of the Dublin Hospital. and other similar
heads or charge. It was rather str4 :gr, that the
Right Han. Baronet should be unalnainted with
the circumstance of Lis having made that motion.
as, at the tine, he appeared to him (Lrr. Johnston:)
a. s•vadfastly I•oking at lan.
Sir JOHN NEWPORT assured the Hon. Gen-
tlernea, that if he was so steadfastly nhserving him,
it was totally without his ,being conscious ut
To the printing rf the papers, he could have no
urnmer of ohjcdinn, save the delay and apparent
uselessness of lay;ng before the Ono. the nu-
merous accrunts, some rather of a' Ovate nature,
sod, in a great degree, conneded with charitable
imnitatinc.s.

• Lord Folkston, presented a Petition from cer-
tain tanners, againd the 04k Bark 13111.—Ordered
to lie nn the fable.

A p-r.en from the flxthequer presented an Ac-
cnunt nt the Permanent and %Vat Taaes. for the year
1806. —oi deredto be printed._

The SECRETARY at WAR rose to move the
discharge of the Order for the House resolving it-
self into a Committee on the Mutiny Bill on Frtday
:mt, arid to postpone the consideration until Friday
se'os.ighr. He was induced to this procedure, iu
conoluence of the Papers moved for by different
birmb-rs, not being in a state of readiness, such
as to enable Gentlemen to avail themselves of the
information contained in them, ag.inst the time
originally fives! upon by the present Order. The
Order was Bischarged, and Friday se'nnight ap-
poirood for the Committee on the Mutiny Bill.
Lord CASTLEREAGH thought it his duty.
born Coe very candid and liberal manner in which
the Nob t Lord opposite (Lord Henry Petty) had
communicated the new plan of Finance, to scat: to
him, and to the Right Hon. Gentlemen connedted
with him io His leLjesty's Government, that it was
his intention to objet to that system, and that be
had dcterinit.ed. on Thursday next, to propose cer-
tain sesnlutions f, unded on such objeaions.
On the motion of Lord HOWICL, the call of
the House was postponed until Thursday seat.
The LORD ADVOCATE of SCOTLAND
postponed his motions relative to the powers of the
Court of Session in Scotland, and to the augmenta-
tion of the stiprosis of the Scottish Clergy, to Friday
nest. ,

,
On the rrsotiott of Lord HOWTCK. it was ear-
tied, that the Rev. Michael Marlow, D.D. be re-
ciaer..tl to preach before the House. on the day ap-
IF...Anted by His Majesty for a General Fast.
Mr. ROSE moved..." That there be li;d before
the Houst, Copies of all minutes of the Paymas-
less-General. and every Correspotdence which had
taken place between them. and other persons, re-
lative to the clothing of the Royal Valetta BAR?.
lions ; together with such orders as had been isstk-cl
on that subjsit ; and the different prices at which
the clothing was procured. from the month of Au-
gust, 1804, to Feb. 1807."
Earl TEMILE had no objedion to the produc-
tion of those Papers, but thcught it unnecessary to
call tor minutes, and a voluminous correspondence,
in a great degree founded on the minutes. He
thought it would be more adiisable to liu,it the
motion to the minutes. and to such letters as were
not referred to in the minutes. The motion. so un-
derstood, was carried.

Mr. MELLISH moved—" That there be laid
before the House, an Acvnint of the quantity of
Spirits imported into Ireland from Great Britain,
and the countervailing ditties payable thereon, for
the last three years, endipg tie Ist of January,
1807." He also moved for an Account of the Spirits
numuladured in Ireland, eap ned to England, and
the amount of the drawback pwid thereon, for the
urns period.
