a reformation were to take place, and instead of a Barrack they
were to build a National Gallery on the spot.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER explained. He
observed that, in his opinion, a Barrack in the spot now occupied
by the Ring's Mews would be of advantage. Ile did not however
intend to go into the question now, but he would inform the Hon.
Member for Westminster that he was mistaken if he thought that
br concerting the place into • Barrack the large area would be
closed. It ass intended to let it remain en open square. The
part of the building that now formed the stables might with pro-
priety be made a Barrack, but would be too narrow for a National
Gallery.
Mr. CROKER wished to call the attention of the House to the
state of the Royal Society, which at the present moment was most
disgracefully lodged. Although they possessed a fine and eaten-
sit e library,tbey were foroed,from want of room,to dispose of a con-
siderable portion of their books in boxes. If the Right Honourable
Gentleman gave to this Society the rooms now occupied by the
Royal Academy, he would be doing a great setvice. The Royal
Society were now quite unable to do their duty.
Mr. W. SMITH hoped that some arrangement would be mad-et
in order to repair and finish Somerset House.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said. that he had
directed Alr. Smirke to prepare a plan and estimate for the pur-
pose.
After a few words from Mr. 11. GURNEY, the Resolution wa.,,
agreed to.

A suns of 89,0001. was then voted for the repairs of the Castles of
Kensington and VI, iticl-or.
The House then resumed, and the Report was ordered to be re-
ceived to-morrow.

The House then resolved itself into a Committee on the Customs
and Stamps Consolidation ntu.
On the Report being brought up,
Mr. H USKISSON observed, that be did not intend to bring in a
Rill to carry those Resolutions into effect, as they would be in-
' corporated in a Bill to be brought in after the Recess, by his
Honourable Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
Pursuant to the order of the day, the House went into a Com.
mince on the Bill to alter and amend the Act of the 3d George IV.
relenre to the trade with Canada; and the Report was brought up.
GAME LAWS.
The House resolved itself Into a Committee on the Game Lure.
Upon the motion of Ale. S. WORTLEY, the several clauses
were agreed to. after a few words freer: Mr. LOCKHAIIT, Sir IL
COLIOUIIt. Mr. fiOnnO,, and Sir J. SEBRIGHT.
The House having resumed, the Report was ordered to be
brought up to-morrow.
The wher orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House
