The Earl of LAUDERDALE presented a petition from
Hull against the timber minks bill.
The Karl of LAUDERDALE rose previous to going
into committee ou the Grampound Disfratichisement hill,
and repeated his objections to it. He could not bring his
mind to believe it was a measure founded in justice. It
would not be just to penis!, men for no crime whatever.
It was clear several of the Gralegmomml voters had com-
mitted no offence. The solde wad bad heard much of
parliamentary reform. Heat one time was a parliamentary
reformer, but the ..meat he changeable opinion on that

The LORD CHANCELLOR was decidedly of spiels,
that no measure was so dangerous as measures of partial
reform. It had ever appeared to him to be viokace In
the laws of the constitution to take away front innocent
men the right of voting—not because they had committed
any offence themselves, but because others had bees
guilty.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, the motion was made
to defeat the bill. The only combos was. whether they
could see enough in the principle of the bill to go into a
committee? The bill bad been called • bill of pains and
penalties. It certainly deprived &body of men of their
rights and privileges. bat the gelation was, what were
those eights and privileges? He did not support the
principle of the bill became he was a reformer, het be-
cause be was against sweeping reform. He thought; the
best way of reforming abases was to prevent and cheek
them, when they were clearly proved to exist. If ever
there was a case made out. it was the case made whist

to depend on corruption. The noble earl supported so
bill, sad expressed his readiness to go into timeammillee.
