4.

PARLIAMENTARY INTELUGENCEC.

The Royal Ameent was given by Commission to 112 Public and
Nivel* Bd4. The Commissioners were, the Lord Chancellor,
the .Earl of Shaftesbury. and Lord Melville.
Lined Lowther, bend Clive, Mr. Brogden. and other Members of
the House of Commons, brought up several Bills. to which some
amendments had been made by their 'Lordships, and which amend-
ments had been agreed to by the Commons. Amount these was
the Metropolitan Turnpike Truitt Bill.
Mr. Tierney, from the Tax Office. presented an account of the
eapenees meowed by the ails and redemption of the Land-tax du-
ring the last yew..
lily. Richardson, from the Commissioners for erecting New
Churches, presented an account of their expenses for the year end.
to March I. 11128.
Mr. Mason, from the East India House, presented the annual
statement of the accounts of the Company.
CU RRENC V.
Lord DACRE presented a petition from a person of the name
of Morgan, who la the owner of some mines in Monmouth and
Waniorgan shires, prayitfg their Lordship" to take came measures
to improve the currency of the touutry. The petitioner stated, that
using to the late alterations In the currency, he bad not been able
so ere employment to the number of persons usually employed by
him, and that that Inability did not arise from want of demand.
but from want of means. His Lordship stated his regret that the
messure respecting the currency had been passed without precious
inquiry. Ile had agreed in the propriety of the measures, but upon
consideeation he regretted that some other course had not been put.
sued. and his regret arose principally from his having heard that
there was no probability of the Bank of England establishing
branches', as he hail been led to expect.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL said the Bank was seriously occu.
pied in considering the propriety of establishing branch batiks, and,
from all that he could learn, with every prospect of carrying their
intentions into effect.
The petition was read and laid on the table.
MINT.
The Eel of LAUDERDALE rose to give notice of his inten-
tion, esti, ii the next Session of Parliament, to move for an in.
spiry into the present state of the Mint. lint lendehie's object
was to ascertain whether it would not be desirable to establish a
free mint in silver as well as in gold. He could not see why the
blint of this country should not conform in its regulations to what
was the system of all the rtstions of Europe.
WEST INDIA PROPERTY.
Lord DUDLEY and SVARD presemed a petition from the
merchants of Liverpool trading to the West Indies. praying their
Lordships not to interfere with colonial property without granting
lull compeheation to the owners. His Igeolidiip said that the petl.
timers dfd not approve of the principle of appraisement which had
been laid down by come persons for the adjustosent of slave pro-
perry. by which the value of the slaver was the only property to be
t tken into account. whereas, by the manumission of slaves the value
of estates in the coloniec was very much depredated: and his Lord-
ship thought this a material consideration in deciding the amount
of compensation. He would also wish to interests upon their Lord.
s'fips the necessity of consulting the wishes of the Colonial Legis-
latures in any new measures which might be inrredeeed to the Co-
lonies; but if they should obstinately refuse a compliance with
the reasonable soggeetions of the Government, it would then be full
time to tetecoercive measures. His Lordship had &similar petition
to present from Montserrat, but he feared that an Informality in
preparing it would prevent their Lordships from receiving it.—The
latter petition was then withdrawn. The petition from Liverpool
was read and laid on the table.
ROMAN CATHOLICS.
The Marquis of LONDONDERY presented a petition from
the Catholics of the county of Monaghan, praying to ae relieved
town certain disabilities under Which they labour. The petitioners
did not call for any discussion upon the petition ; but his Lordship
hoped that it would not be inferred from that circumstance that
they were lukewarm respecting their claims. As there was such a
general opinion in favour of free trade, and for the removal of re-
strictioo, he did not see why there should not be freedom of
religion. His Lordship /mated the time was not far distant when
the Calludies would enjoy an equal participation of privileges With
their fellow-subjects; and he thought such an event would add to
the happiness and security of the kingdom.—Laid on the table.
