Lord SHEFFIELD called the attention of the
House to the subject of the Bill for regulating the
above, which stood for a second reading tomor-
row. He had a petition to present against the
Bill, from certain persons, whose names were there-
unto affixed. His Lordship read the petition.
which was of considerable length, as a part or his
Speech ; it went to set forth what the parties con-
ceived to be the injurious consequences of suer a Nil
passing into a law, the danger of a principle ring
to suspend the Navigation Laws, &c. His Lordship,
after presenting the Petition, said, it was his intension
to move to-morrow, that the second reading of the
Bill be farther postponed, in order to give time to
the numerous parties concerned in the important
trade, which the Bill went to affect, to come for-
ward in their behalf.
Lord HOLLAND made a few observations in
support of the Bill, and the conversation continued
between the above Noble Lords, and Lord bldon,

regular form of proceeding.

should be heard by their Counsel against the Bill.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' BILL.
Lord Eldon presented three several Petitions
from a number of individuals, whose names were
thereunto subscribed, against the Bill now pending
before their Lordships, and prayi3g thatit m iy not
piss into a law, which were ordered to lie uo the
table.

Ihe Earl of Dartmouth presented two Peti-
tions to the same effect; as did his Grace the Duke
of Norfolk, Viscount Bulkeley, and Lord Shef-
field. These Petitions were severally ordered to
lie on the table.

Lord Holland presented a Petition from a
number of individuals confined fur debt. praying
that the Bill in question may pass into a I.iw.
The Order of the Day fur the secuud leading of
the Bill being read,
Lord HOLLAND observed, that the Bill may,
without impropriety, be now rid a second time.
He was fully aware that considerable differeree of
opinion obtained as to the measure ; but when he
considered the present thin attendance, the fatiguing
avocation in which their Lordships had been al-
ready engaged that day; and that the principle
of the measure may as well be discussed upon
future stages of the Bill, he was induced to pro-
pose that the second reading should take place now,
with an understanding, that the disciis.:ion should
take plate on the next stage of the Bill.
Lord ELLENIBOROUGH appeared in some de-
g:ee to concur with his Noble Friend's proposed ar-
rangement ; and was of opinion, the principle of the
BM may regularly be debated in a subsequent
stage.
Lord ELDON, though he seemed of opinion that
the second was, it any, the most regular stage to
debate the principle of the Bill ; yet, under what
was thrown out, and as the principle may certainly
be debated in a future stage, he would not °Nat to
the proposed arrangement.
The Bill was then read a second time, cal ,ilentio;
and, on the Motion of Lord HOLLAND, was
committed for Monday next.
