a compliment to a well.kwown and long-experienced writer

intended—en insidious attempt to foist off, under this dig

INSOLVENT DEBTORS.

Debtyrs' dell was committed. The Noble Lord
stated,* that as the Bill our stood he tuba ht it.
very objectionahilis. • It was out lila intention to rie-
copy the attention of their Lordships long with
the amendments he had to propose; and If they
were agreed La, he would move that the Bill should
be rep r i 11l eil, and the further consideration host.
putted. His first objectiors to the Bill was to the
clause'renipelling the insolvent debtor, at the de-
sire of soy ore creditor, after a certain permd of im-
prisonment, to sell and dispose of his property, and
if he did trot do that to the satisfaction of the
Court, that be should tint be entitled to benefit
of the Act. This he corsceived to he oppressive, and
contrary to the intention of the Legislature to re.
lieve insolvent debtors, as it weld to ietlict perpe-
tual nainssurrinent. He would thetefore move that
this clause should be expunges' hour the Bill. The
next Amendment he had to propose was a ebruse to
relieve debtors imprisoned et the suit of the Crown
nu Etterits. He understood that this clause would
not be opposed. It had been his intention to move
a clause for the relief of persumrimprisoned for fin-
tempt of the Court of Chancery, but understendiug
it was intended to be opposed, he would not press it at
prebert. The next itinemlnient he would propose, was
one which was loudly called for by erribtors—that
debtors taking the benefit of the Act should not be
entitled to the liberties of the rules of the preens,
which gave them an opiwntuosty of scoasidering
the creditors' property. He would also propose
that there should be three Commissioners to preside
in the losulvetits' Court ik;stearl of one ; and tit-
stead of a debtor beteg imptisoned fur three months
before he could petition the Court fir relief, hr
would propose that he might do so immediately
after his arrest ; and that be should he entitled to
the betiellt of the Act as soon as possible, if he con- i
formed with the other provisious of the Act, which
would prevent the wasting of his property by lying
itt prism'. If these amendments were agreed to, lie
would call their Lordships' uttentiuu to the subject
agent its the euauwg Scission.
Lord IterresDALS said he did not approve of the
Bill in its present state, fur it was certainly depart-
ing ((yin the old law on the subject, which ;have se-
lief to persons coufined for debts who were inlaid-
vent, trod If hot relieved by the law must remain
itoprisoned for ever for the fault, for certainly it
was a fault, but often it was not the fault of the
person imprisoned, but of others. He could hot
agree to the clause which compelled a person im-
mediately after his arrest, or within fourteen days,
to give no his property, for lie turgid lie arrested for
a sum that he did riot owe, or lie might be able to
come to a compromise, or pay the debt after four-
teen days. He mentioned this more for the consi-
deraticu of the Noble Lord (Auckland) Oro as an
amendment. As to the anienJultrit of the Noble
Lord to the right of petitioning tin arrest, if that
was limped into a law the property of the debutr
would be immediately vested its his assigner. who
might sell it forthwith, by which Walls the Bank-
rupt Laws would be evaded. and those entitled to
them would be deprived of their eights. He would
have no objection to the amendment if it was so
worded as 110 lip interfere with the BalikrUpt Laws.
Lord AUCKLAND explained.

The amendment* were agreed tn.
The I-loube rebooted, and the Chairman reported.
The Bill, with the amendments, was ordered to
be reprinted, mod to tic recommitted ou a future
day.
The Inland Coals Bill, the Exchequer .81114

Mr. Wtuitcre, is pres.euting a private Petition, took the
opportunity of stating au iiijoiry which lie had suffered
from the editors of newspapers, which he had intended to
have introduced to the House as a breach of privilege. In
the debate on the bill fur regulating the press in the last Par.
'lament, the Hun. Member for Corfe Castle made sumeub-
aeivations on the effects of educating the poor. In com-
menting on those observations, be bad been made by the
newspapers to say, that he entirely objected to educating
the Ivor; whereas, lie had always been a friend to that ob-
ject, and his remark bad only gone to the (-strut to which
that education was carried. The report had given hie a
great deal of trouble at the last election. lie had un doubt
that the mistake was without iutention of injury, mid hoped
that it would be explained as publicly as it had burti
mined.
