to make people believe that Monsters were a set of very
ill-usvd gentlemen, and giving the real i ' tin dispute toe

ton) had introduced a ne te• tangled, or, to u•e his Lordship's

of enquiry now ? Let the House look lit the opinions of

them consoler their experience and kilo.. ledge of the sub-
je, t. There was one, the present Chief Harms of Scotland
(Sir S. Shepherd), who had lately been an ornament to that
House. He went down, not fully acquainted with the
practice of the Scottsh Courts a stranger amongst them—
and it might have beets said," Don't you think we ought to
have live Barons instead of four?" To which he in hisgood
nature would say," In the name of tiod, let in have fleet's

argumeut in his favour, and hail asked what would become of
Sir Patrick ,tlurray ? Was lie to lose the situation which
he had berm up; ted to for life ? He (Lord Castlereagh)
would have them wait till the next time appointinent for
this saving. Such Members might be entrapped by that
proposition; but, if toy were, mid voted against the present
motion, there was on further use of enquiry—there was as

Lord A. HAMILTON said a hew words in reply,

During our eXVlllsitlll trout tile gallery, which was for
npwaids of an hour anJ a half, we understand like House
divided ou Lord A. Hamilton's motion, when the numbers
were—

Majority........ l2
Whilst the division was going on, Lard Castlereagh ad-
dressed the ministerial members in the lobby, and begged
to remind them that a further question remained tor con-
sideration, and upon which a division might be expected
to take place. The iiitended proposition went to impute
blame to his Majesty's ministers for filling up the vacancy
without previously taking the sense of Parliament upon it.
Ou the contrary, in his opinion, it was the business of
Goveruntent first to till tip the office. and afterwards
stimuli its propriety to the approbation of the House.
On our readmission to thy gallery, we found
Sir J. NEWPORT addressi►►g the House. He was
supporting the follow we. motion, which, during our
aliseuckt, was, we understood, proposed by Lord A. Ha.
miltun, and Olt which Lind Cvstiereagh halt nio►ed the

this House that tile vacancy occasioned iii the Scotch

THE MILITARY ESTABLIt.HMENT.—CoI. DAVIS rose
to bring forward his motion respecting what he deemed '
imperfect in our Military Establishment. Although lilt,.
tress mielit appear in various forms, he thought it could I
not be denied, that the disordered state of our finances
was at the hot om of all the difficulties experienced. He
was persuaded that nothing but s eti enchant-tit and economy
etitild be effectual. He knew there lead been • Finance
Committee, but he Mined that it had accomplish. d any
thing elfectital for the country. There was no sioecuse
that vied mote loudly for cot rection that. the Gore. nor-
ship of Gibraltar ; and yet scarcely was the Duke of Kent
dead, than the Earl of Chatham was appointed in his stead.
The same. messenger that carried out the account of the
demise of the Duke of Kent, conveyed the appututmetit
of Lord Chatham. The expenditure for the last year fur
the army was hair Mouthed thousand pounds mole than
for the year preceding. He contended that, by a re-'
organization of the Army, and by eels encliments that
were at olive practicable and sale, at least 400,0001. in the
expeoditme of the Army might be saved. He concluded
with moving for a Select Co 11111 l liter of Enquiry.
Lord PALMERSTON thought that the remarks made
by the Hon. Member might have been reserved for the
discussion on the Army Estimates, which was to be
brought forward in two or three days; that the savings
which had been suggested could be and had been shown
not to be accomplishable at the present period; but that
he should be prepared to go Inure into detail when the
Army Estimates were brought forward.
Atter some further remarks the motion was negatived;
and the remaining orders being disposed of, thy House
adjourned.

would be better to recur to the classification of 1793.

On the proposition to fill up the blank regardiug the salary
of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.
Sir J. el EW PORT expressed the hope that some reason
would be assigned fur it.
Lord CASTLEREAGH void the amount was made charge-
able on the Civil List, histead of the Consolidated Fuad,
which was some expedient fur a provident expenditure.
Sir J. NEW POlt f replied, that the decision of Ibl2 for
10,0001. was ito guide for the present petiod, alien the
ameliorated state of the currency was eowidered.
Mr. C. GRANT observed that the income, .10,0001. was
barely adequate to the expenditure. He knew this loom
the best authority. if the establishment were nut managed
with great economy, private tortuue must suffer; that lie
knew (ruin his own personal keowledge • and did the House
desire that the person holding such high' office should have
his 'initiate furtuiw iejured by pei forming public duty ?
Mr. TIERNEY expressed his ignorance of the Irish
Civil List, but added, that he apprehended the orrice was
nut waight fur the sake of profit. lie had never beard that
there was any difficulty in procuring an individual to till the
office, but he *Recalled upon to make ie perrnitUerit arrange-
ment, and yet he was denied all sort of itifinination 9 how-

became a question, how much was required to sustain the
splendour of a Luid-Lieutenant.
Various blanks were filled up, and the Chirmun reported
progress.
The remaining Orders having been disposed of, the House
adjourned.

PENSIONS.—Mr. BLN N ETT moved for an Account of
Pensems granted on the Leeward Islands 4; per cent duties
since 1860. Ordered.
There were Agricultural Petitions presented from Gla-
morganshire anti Wiltshire.
Mr. BENN ETT, in presenting the latter Petition,
observed, that the distresses of the Petitioners were only
equalled by the calamities of those who were dependent
upon them. Tlwre were about bO,OOO labourers dependent
on the petitioners, who did out approach that House from
any selfish motives. They only desired, if the Corn Bill
were rout ioued. that it might be made efficient.
Loid MILTON said, that this Petition did not prove that
one class only was distressed r it established in his mind,
that the agricultural, trading, and commetrial classes, all
were distressed. If ever enquiry should be instituted, he
apprehended that the distresses of all were attributable to
one pet vading cause.—(Hear, (tear.)
Gen. GASCO YN E unaerstiiod that the Petitioners did
nut desire any elteration of the Corn Laws.
Mr. BENNETT (of Wiltshire) explained, that they
only required that protection which was " held out" by the
Corn Laws.
Mr. CV RSV EN observed, that the agricultural class mould
not obtain any real relief which would not improve other
classes of the sultjects. Ile depot-voted any distinction being
made between the several classes; and felt convinced that
the Report of a Committee would set at rest ineuy of those
us:founded jealousies that were now circulated.
Mr. GRANT preseuted a Petition front the trialtster's of
Inverness, praying for relief from the malt tax.—(bead and
ordered to be printed.
A Message (runs the Lords announced that their Lordships
had agreed to the Bill amending the Moth Geo. II I respecting

The SPEAKER reminded the House that there would be
two ballots on Thursday next.
Air. W ESTER N asked whether any steps had been taken
on the subject of altering the Assists and Jail Delivery, to
which he had called the ;mention of the House last Session.
Lord CASTLEREAGH it-plied, that the subject bad
bees, considered; that the Attomey-General had given
notice of a motion ois the subject, and that lie hoped some
of the evils complained of might be remedied.
ADJUUMANANT OF THE House.--Lord CASTLE-
REAGH, in reply to a question from Lord A. Hamilton,
gave notice, that to-morrow lie should move that the
House, at its rising to-morrow, should adjourn to Thurs-
day next.
CIVIL Lter.—Tbe Report of the Civil List Bill having
been presented.
Mr. CURWEN expressed Ills regret, that in the pre-
sent state of the country, a less burdened Civil List load
not beets presented to the House.
A bleniber complained of the footing on which the
Ambassadors of this country were placed; observing,
that those of the Kieg of France, an arratigenient wor-
thy of imitation, were divided into classes, a measure that
produced considerable saving.
Lord CASTLEREAGH described the arrangements
respecting Anibas..adors, and contended that little, if
any, saving could be • fleeted by a change.
Mr. D. W. HARVEY was surprised that so little in-
gniiy haul tercel' place, especially when he recollected the
pledges which many Members bad fence ed wills their

palish t and that if the Bill passed, be believed it would he
the means of driving many persous from the pariah.
Mr. H. StialNitit was surprised at this opposition, espe-
cially as he had understood it to be moved without these
being any intention to resist the Bill.
Sir R. WILSON observed, that the other Hon. Member
hail agreed not to oppose the Bill ; hut his constituents has
instructed him (Sir It. W.) to oppose tie Bill in every pas-
sible way. At all events, be hoped:there would be so olkiec•
lion to pospnne the Bill till after the holidays.
Mr. 11. L•UNIN /at remarked, that it did cot pemiliarly
areet the gallant General's Constilueuts.

Mr. Alderman WOOD begged to set the Hon. Member
right. Many of the gallant General's coustituents resided
in the parish; but after what had passed, and as use of th :
Members for the county, who was against the Bill, al.
absent, he thought postponement could not be objected to.
Mr. DENMAN and Sir J. hI'INTOSia also spoke m
favour of postponement, especially as it was manliest that
the Bid had not the preliminary support winch it ought yr
have. It was brought in contrary to the arrengemtu of
existing Arts, which provided that a m ;jority of the inha-
bitants should be had to warrant such a measure.
Sir J. GRAHAM said, if the principle were objected
to, the minium could be resisted on the third reading ;
but to postpone the peseta motion could only tend to
keep up the irritation which already existed, as ;here
way a large party in the palish opposed to what might
nevertheless be very proves.
Mr. S. C. %V HITEHtEA D was at least for the postpone-
ment of the Bill, and thought that less inconvenience
might result from continuing the 'agitation for a short
tinge, in:demi of subjecting the parish to addiliwial ex.
pence.—(Hear.)
Mr. H. SUMNER, after what had passed, begged
leave to withdraw his motion.

Motion for the second reading was accordingly with-
drawn.

the importation of foreign produce they would thereby

the agricultural niftiest'', and who had been very busy in
circulated Isis printed papers amongst the Membeis-
meant Mr. George Webb Hall (the Chairman of the
Agricultural Assuciatiuns).
