Scots Appeal, Smith v. Yelton and others, viz.

MR. JUSTI'...T FOX.
Pending the Appeal Cause,
the Marquis of A BERCORN moved, that the
Order for their Lordships going into a Committee
upon the matters alleged against Mr. Justice Fox,
and the papers and docoments respeeing the same,
on the 7th of Feb. be discharged. This the Noble
Marquis generally stated, he was principally induced
to do by the consideration of the great distance many
of the Is itnesses who were meant to be brought for-
Ward, on the occasion,had: necessarily to travel: some
- from remote parts of Ireland, and to whom it would
I.' t•aoraelicanle to arrive in due time, in reference
. t : ::.• day at fir-t sprinted for the commencement
1., t' e investigation. Under this impression, and
s.,di a view to the circumstances of the case, be
should propose that a similat Order he made for the
18th of Fehrtirry, which his Lordship seemei to
think the earliest praflicable day.
This proposition meeting the concurrence of their
Lordships. the Order as above was forthwith dis-
charged, and renewed for the 18th of next month.
On the Motion of the Noble ;Marquis, farther or-
ders were made by the House : the first, that a Mes-
sage he sent to the Commons, desiring the permis-
sion' of that House, to four of its Members ; name-
ly. Sir Thomas Fetherstnne, Bart. ; the [lon. Gal-
t' braith Lowry Colc, Sir James Stewart, Bart. and
Mervin Archdale, Fsq. to attend their Lordships'
Committee on the I Stir of February next.
Also Orders for the attendance of divers witless-
es from the county of Fernnuragh, &c. in Ireland.
.. , The LORD CHANCELLOR notified to their
Lordships the circumstances of His Majesty's
Judges having been ordered to attend in reference
to a pending Appeal from Ireland, which princi-
pally respeecti a question of ejeement, on a parti-
cular day ; and that, in case it should not be prac-
ticable to the Judges to attend that day, he should
; I move to postpone the consideration of the case to a
;-• future day. Then ones of the parties in the cause
were net mentioned by the Noble and Learned
Lord.
MII.IrARY LEvirs.
The Earl of CAMDEN presented, in pursuance
of a re.-ent Address ni their Lotdships, Accounts
of the 'timber of men raised under the provisions
of the Additional Force Aft passed last Session.
The Accounts were ordered to lie on the 'Fable, and,
on the Motion of his Lordship, to be printed.
The Earl of DARNLEY (in consequence of
whose Motion the accounts were produced) pro.
kissed h's inte:4tion to bring forward a Motion upon
the suhj,e, on Monday. However, he conceived
some farther information was necessary to its due
elucidation ; he therefore meant to move for an ac-
count, specifying. the numbers which were raised
under the provisions of the Aft, through the me-
dium of the Parish Officers, as distinft from those
_ • Who were raised by the ordinary means of levy.
This spec ificatinn, he thought, would tend to skew,
that some of the arguments formerly used by those
who oppressed the Bill were, at least, not without
some foundation. He wished to know the senti-
ments of the Noble Secretary, with respell to the
proposed additional accounts, which would intia-
t ence him, as to the time when he should make the
Motion.
• The Earl of CAMDEN observed, he saw no ob-
• . jeeioa to the accounts being produced, which his
Noble Friend adverted to; but, with respell to the
• day upon which the intended proposition should be
t: discussed, the same facility, in his mind, did not
seem to obtain. There were, on the other hand,
other papers and accounts, which, he thought, were
is necessary to be produced, and which it may not be
praeicable to get ready in due time, before the day
alluded to; besides, there was a discussion of great
. importance pending; and which, perhaps, circum-
stances may render it necessary to have postponed.
: He had rather his Noble Friend would fix upon
another day; as, by possible contingency, that men-
tinned might interfere with the important discussion
which he alluded to as pending.
The Earl of DARNLEY explained, and ex-
pressed himself as desirous that no proposition com-
ing from him should stand in the way of any other
' business of more importance, as alluded to by his
Noble Friend, which their Lordships might have to
di:ct:‘s. However, as the thing stood, he did not
so- ‘vhat well gronntiod objeftion could be offered to
•if r.lntoning their Lor,lships for the service of that
. !iltrse, on Monday next. He repeated some of his
former observations relative to the inefficacy of parts
of the aft in question ; and concluded by framing a
%lotion for producing the farther accounts, as above
described, which, after a few words from Earl
Camino, was put and ordered accordingly.
Mr. Ar EI• N nta, attended by several Members,
returned the Insolvent Debtors' Amending Bill,
agreed to by that House, and which was laid- upon
the table.—Adjourned.
