man, end the conorquesice was that the shop was mils shot
up. He believed it was true dist some of die bills preferred
by the Society were thrown out by one Grated Jury, nu what
grounds he was ignorant, although for the same publication
true bills had been found by other Grand Juries. As far as
the legality of the Society was is, question, hr could see no
resins to say that it was ass illegal Asauciation, bid for those
who thought otherwise a competent tribunal was open to

that because an individual Ind subscribed his money to the

the country shot he belonged to a Society fur prosecutesig
felons. Fur these reasons be should oppose the motion.

Mr. BROUGHAM said, be should just trouble the House
with a few remarks en what had fillets from the Henuur-
able and Learned Gentleman, laying out of his consi-
deration all that had been said respecting Ike Society
for the Suppression of Vice, which he considered had
within to do with the present question, the objects uf
the two Societies being so very differeut. As to the
Assoeintion for prosecuting felons, how could any ita-
proper feeling be mixed up with • prosecution for a bar-
glary, though smelt feelings must interfere when it was
• 'prosecution foe a political uffenee. Political offences, sod
ofiencea Rennet the established religion, were peculiarly
improper to be prosecuted by • ioeiety, as party feelings
must be engendered, and the materials out of which Jones
noel Judges were formed would feel the pernicious iuflueaer,
suit, as his Learned Primed (Mr. Denman) had oboe-med,
e•unter-aseadatione would be formed, sod the flowing or
suck orposate streams Hilo the jury-box would teed to
poison jostiee so its very source. The Hon. and Idarued
Gentleman (the Attorney. General) said, be did on see bow
the Members of the Amsetation were disqualified from
anima' as jiirmsuen, but he had the authority of the Court of
King'a Bench for answering that doubt ; the Court had ad.
mined it as • ground of challenge to • juryman, sod had, is
coaseqecesee, admitted that • person belonging to ibis
Society was unfit to be • jurymen. Could any man
doubt that seek would be the opinion of the Court of
King's Bench? Gold it be doubted that if he sub-
scribed his mosey he wee unit le prosecute, sad that
if he prosecuted, he was unfit to sit as Judge?' He objected
t• this Society, that whether Ibis florid, was jobbing or Am
ioterested, honest or dishostert, yet they were arrayed no use
side of the question, nod no offences of the party whose side
they repassed would be touched by them. They had their •
reormletoo to smite oe Grand and Petty Juries; they bad
their local and general talloence; nod in the last resort,
if a cause were carried iglu the House of Lords by writ of
error, they had there four, or live, mosciates ready to meet
and give eherk-mate immediately. We objected to the
Society on Cite growed that in cuontry places it would be
'impossible to procure an unbiassed Jury, if my Lord Sach-
em-Om, or the Duke of So-and-So. tieing is the weigleboore
hood, were hoover to be association. As to the strict lega-
lity of the Society, he had before said, and be new trunk'
repeal it, that as the law was understood to be, and
as it was practised for many year. past, there was
not any thing against law its the constitution of the
Association, but the raischi eeeee exercise of a legal right
was exactly tint sort of case which called for parliamentary
inteiference. That the Society had acted illegally, sum-
dead, appeared from their own account. He would grant
that it ass tegal, for no individeel to Mika though net
personally injured, be would greet that it was legal
fur a cumbination to do so, but it wee Not Istel for .

He regretted that very good mem, fur whom he entertained
high respect, had, in his opiniou, been drawn in Dimwit-
tingly to heroine Members of this Society. The subordinate
agents of this Society would be found to he " Viceroys over
them," and ell the power of the Society would he in the
bawls of those agents. The Hon. Member for Bramber said
*unsettling about plotting down calumny on both aides; but
it so happened that nhisough there was a rich harvest, they
had only mowed down one side. He (Mr. Brougham) had
been informed that one of the eases selected fur prosecution
was an indecent caricature of his Majesty, but which
was only a parody of one on her Majesty to the full as
indecent; yet no notice was taken of that, though there
was this difference, that one was a caricature of •
Lady, and the .ether of a Gentlemen ; y 4 t one was untouched,
whilst a person was iu prison for having peithshed the other.
He must say that the pros hail use one side teemed with the
most dial uning enangoies, not one uf which were noticed
by the Society, .whiint the viols of its wrath were pour.
ed out unceasingly on the opposite side. These were
his reasons fur disapproving (hie Amociat ion, and if any thing
could bane increased hie abhorrence uf it, it would be the
port of defence which had been set up.
The SOLICITOR.GEN ERA L contended that the opi-
nion of Judge Ashburn, taken in its fair sense, was in favour
of the Society. He remembered a prosecution of the Society
for the Suppression of Vice, There the present Lord Erskine
was Counsel for the prosecution, which was defended by a
Mr. Kidd, who attacked the legality of the Society, which
was Mlle's up most warmly by Mr. Erskine, who defended
its legality, end it was well known that he was the friend of
the liberty of the press. The present Society was a law.

of the prosecuttpas which had been isencell by the
Society would have been taken up by the Attortry•General.
The comparison of the Society to that of the Suppression of
Vice, was uut iu point; and his Hon. mid Learned Friend
(the Soliestor-General), when he elated that case of she let-
ter Society, in which Lord Erskine was counsel for the pro-
secution, ought not to hart forgot to state, that bard
Erskine threw up his brief oil the occasion. He well
knew that all Societies who employed spies or common
hammers were bad, for there was something iii the nature
of au Wormer that was repugnant to the feeliogs of free
men, and particularly so when the very foundatom of the
Society was to tell the Attorney-General he did oat do his
duty. It would be better fur them to address the Crown to
auspead the fonetione of the Attormy-Geneeal, or to cause
Lim to be more quick its his movement, than to countenance
rich a self-constitisted Society. As his Learned Friend the
Attorney-General had thrown out what had fillet' from him

but it was dis•grerahle to him to Notice any thing that oe-

Society, mad had brought every thing into the House but hie
brief, and the time would come when he waned find that he
was only partially imtructed. He felt, however, strongly,
that the motion of Isis Hon. Friend eunld not be supported,
