nittny, which was likely to do much nil:chief. 'I be bill was then

ALIEN BILL.—Lord HOLLAND presented a petition from
the inhatetoms of Ipswich, tit Sudole, against the Atien Bill.
—The petitioners con:nicheed by declaring that they saw with

Lord lit iLLAN I) moved the committal of the Scotch Magis-
trates Residence Bid.
Lord M E I.V I I.L E objected to the further progress of this
bill daring the present session, on the ground that this bid having
been before the Commons several months, was brought up to
that (loose in July, when many of the Peers of Scotland, who
were much interested in the bill, hail left London to pursue
laudable objects elsewhere. 'I hey left Parliament with an on-
thirsts/Wing that this bill would not be brought forward during
the presesii session. It would not be acting lairly by these Peers,
lithe bill was allowed to pass in their absence, and as no great
inconvenience would arise fioni delay, lie should move the bill

The house met soon after tour o'clock.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said lie held in his hand a bill
which had for its object the Amendment of the Bankrupt Laws.
—He wished the measure to be received, and read the first tune,
with a view that it might be taken into the tonstdzration of the,r
Lordships duting the recess. The bill would be printed, and
stand user until next session of Pailiament, when the home
might Lgtslate upon it. The noble and learned lorA did not
wish to pledge the house to the adoption of every clause in the
bill, but the subject of the measure he was induced to believe,
might produce much advantage to the public. There was one
clause in the bill which the noble and learned lord considered a
very important teature. lie alluded to that part of the bill which
enabled a bankrupt to declare himself insolvent, and thereby save
his eitalitors at the expense of working a connnission. Having
adverted to other matters connected with the bill, lie concluded
by moving it be read the first time.

Tl.e House was summoned to the House of Peers, to bear
the Royal assent given to sundry bills by commission.
The Irish Stamp Duties Reduction Bill went throes!' a com-
mittee. Report to-morrow.
Tho CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the
third reading of the Superannuation /Jill. The right hon. gen-
tleman proposed a chute.
Mr. CALCRAFT said the clause was an improvement, but
it did not remove his objections to the bill.
The clause was agreed to. It provided that persons not con-
; tributing to the fund should not be entitled to superannuations.
Mr. ABERCROMBY said, that in fact, those who were in
office before July G, should be under regulations that heretofore
existed.
Other clauses were presented by the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, requiring annual returns of Superanauatious, etc.—
Agreed to. On the quertiou that the hill do pass,
Mr. CANNING hoped theta more decidedly optional charac-
ter would he given to the bill, in another place, as far as re-
garded the contributions of official characters to the Coed.
Ball passed and ordered to the Lords.
Mr. B. BATHURST presented the Report of the Committee,
to vvhoru the petition of the Calcutta bankers was referred.
Mr. CANNING said that he understood this report was not
final. It must be brought forward again in the next Session—
but lie expressed his regret that such claims had been so far
ceunlenanced by the (louse as to consider this petition here. It
would revive other claims which might not be so just as this
petition ; at a I events it weiild produce those claims the pro-
gress and mode of which he bad been fire years in repressing.
lie had acted on the old notions on this subject, and here and
elsewhere he should continue to do till some superior power
sliould tell him he was wrong. The right hon. gentleman entered
into some demils respecting tte laws iu India regarding usury,
and the making up of lea's to thy native powers.

~~ !


Mr. C. W. WYNN thought that there were no doubts re-
spevting those laws. If there were oily doubts, it would be
right that there should be a declaratory act ou the subject ; and
it it were hound, however, on cul.suliing the law °Ricers, Le
should deem it his duty, early in the neat Session, to diit,t
the attention of the House to the question.
After some remarks from Mr. NOSEY,
Mr. VORBES expressed his astonishment at the doctrine
held by the right hon. gentleman near loin (Mr. Canning), The
parties had as mud' right to prefer complaints to that House ~*
any British horn subjects.
Mr. 111.11 E had before adverted to the danger which would
jte iucurred by the House, if such applications to the I:aus•
were encouraged. They were applications that emit(' not i.•
fairly adjusted by the House, and therefore it would be unuirs
to encourage them. The local government misfit exprrieu
inconvenience, but they would only have to thank the Dome of
Controul.
Mr. CANNING explained.
Mr. PRENDERGAST spoke in favor of the claims in the
petition, and of the right the petitioners to make their appeal to
Parliament.
Report ordered to lie on the table.

J. Gambier to be Consul at the Breads, &c.

Spirits Exportation kScothind) liil, &e. were resd a third ton•
and passed.
On t.•e question that the Barilla Duties Bill he referred to a
Committee,
A memlivr moved as an amendment, that it be committed this
day three months.
Mr. ELLICE said, he was not surprised at this amendment.
The Bill was intended to afford relief to particular persons
but sow other mode of granting that relief ought to be adopted.
The CHANCELLOR of the E KC/lEQU EH. said, that this
Bill was brought in to protect the Barilla dealers from those
great lessee that they would otherwise 'obtain by the reduction
of the Salt Duties.
Mr. W. smtrit was in favour of the Bill. Was one party
to he denied relief because there were two parties who ought
o be protected ?
Mr. R. M ARTIN said a few words in opposition to the bill.
Mr. T. WILSON trusted that the bill would be allc?..d to
go to a Committee.
Amendment negatived.; bill committed ; report to-morrow..
The bill is to take ettect front January instead of October.
The Exchequer Bill's Bill went through a Committee.—Re-

port to-morrow.
On the motion that the Smuggling Prevention Bill be read a
third time,
Mr. BERNAL spoke against it, adverting to the hardships
that the revenee laws exposed individuals to. According to
those laws, the oath of one officer was sufficient to send any
poor devil" on Mud a man of war.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL observed, that if any impro-
per commitment took place, the party could apply for a writ nt
Habeas Carpus, and procuee his immediate discharge.
Mr. LUSH INGTON said it was intended to give the Lords
of the Treasury power to interfere in particular cairn.
Dr. LUSIIINGTON again adverted to the case of some per-
sous brought Solo Yarmouto, and there committed to prison as
smut, re, having been taken on be coast of Holland ; he
thought such else merited time consideration of Governieetit.
Mr. BERNAL thought the bill ought to stand over till to-
morrow, to Word the opportunity of giving reused; fur particu-
lar eons ictiocs.

in this bill was similar to what was to be found in all Acts

usual manner, to bear the Royal assent given to sundry bills.—
(See Lords.)

passed, after some remarks Iron Colonel French, Sir W. de
Craspigny, and Mr. Goulbourn.

to-morrow, that the House, at its rising, should adjoin'. to
Monday.
Dr. PHILLIMORE presented a petition from Francis PO.
of Farringdon, Berkshire, complaining of the Lieeneing system..
Mr. F. PALMER said, that too much attention could not I-c
paid to this subject. He trusted that it would again be revived
at no distant period. Too much could not be dune to diminish
the diaisppointment experienced by the public at the failure of
the two important clauses in the bill of his bon. friend (%!r. 11.
G. Bennet.)
Petition read and ordered to he printed.
PIRACY.—Mr. MARRYAT presented a petition from mer-
chants in the port of London engaged in the Wiest futile ti acre
complaining of the extension of piracy.
Sir G. COCKBURN :Aid that the English government had
done all that was to be ellected. If we bad iuterfered in a
still more marked manner it might have ie./aired as in quarrels
with infant States, such as Chili and Peru, which were, be w as
hound to state, governments de facto; and if England were to
take part against those infant States, Old Spain mast lia.•
triumphed. What would then have been said of the English
government? Why, the Minister's would have been scooted
from that House. The fact was, the British merchants were
rather unreasonable ; the moment they suffered even partial ia-
corn enience, they began to complitin, without any reference to
the general interests.
Lord LONDONDERRY made some similar ohaervatione,
adding that be regretted such a petition as this should be pi,
seuted. It could only open the eyes of the powers whose pro •
ceedings were complained of ; it could only show the weakness
of our Laws on such subjects ; it would be much better if tt e
parties were to endeavour to open the eyes of the Admiralty, if
it were snpposed that the Admiralty was supine in its conduct.
His Lordship added that Lord Cochrane had taken acme strong•
•
views of the laws of nations, and the English go vement had
made some strong representations to the 11;Liliaa authoriti,s ou
this subject.

hfr. BRIGHT thought that under all circumstances it would
he well lot the country if these matters were rally brought
heron; the (louse: They were practical men. or at least they
~44t to be so ; an.l they ought to deal with the pirates as the
Amerirsos hat done. The false pretence •f the Spanish
tit; nu; d not to protect the pirates ; we ought to do as the
Americans hal done. If we did sot tekl the protection of onr
commerce into oar ows hands, our commerce in that part of the
world must be ahandoned.

Mr. CitOK Ea said, that orders had been issued, March 23.
to our cruisers, to exert themselves against the pirates ; and
,•ommunicatiuns were also made to the Spanish authorities that
liugland moat interfere to protect herself, except Spain aced
her power.
. _ _

Alter some remarks from Dr. Phillitnore, &c. the petition
wse read, au -I ordered to be printed.
Lord PALMERSTON presented the Report from the Com-
mittee as printing' and stationary.
Mr. lIUME protested against the report, and the manner ea
hieh the Committee had conducted the ingeiry. They were
an Limos to convict the persons who appeared as witnesses; this
pirtieuturly applied to Mr. Jennings.
