Colonel PORTER said, he was aware he ought to make
ansakology to the Douse for the notices' lie gave on the
subjeet of.Coldinatb4ields Prison, and he ought now, in
particular, to: make an-npology, for he did not Mean, to
bring on the 'matter at all. He was induced to give up
the pursuit of it in that House, becatrse he was assured
from respedable authority, that a proper recommendation
would be made to, theSecretaiyof•Stete for the home De-
Paitment, and. he trusted' that the steps which Would be
taken in.conseqiienceof that recommendation, Would

Mr. yoivEv. said, he was tinder .the necessity of, fcl-
• lowing the course of the Hon. Gentleman who had just

opportunity ofseting in their places the Ex-War Ministeranti the Ex-Chancellor of the, Exchequer, at whose re-
quest he had already more ,than once postponed his. Mo-
tion ; but lie could not name a tidy:

wasneterions. that 'some. Informers. got .8001. a year, and
:one he unsteistoott 1,3 001. u.pos their practices in these

luded ought to 'be laid before the House. , lie therefore,
moved, That there be laid before the House a Copy of

tive to the Increase of Bank Stock, or for giving ,a Bonus
to the Proprietors of Bank Suit:it, on the ith of April

gave notice that he should move for the Papers on Mon-
day, and bring,on the subjeel they referred to on the next

SI'EAK ER took occasion to state that he under-
stood the rAle to 'be With, regard to Noticesand Motions,
thus :—That when any Motion was matte for Papers, the
Hon. Member who made .the Motion was asked if the
persons generally supposed to be most immediately con-
cerned, consented to their production ; and if the answer
was in the negative, then to yeconimenct to the, Hen. Gen-
tleman who intended to inove, tg give ppt4:o,ol,his Ma-
tion for a t:titure thy, in order that if airy objeetion was to
be 'Made to it, parties might have time to prepare for the
diseussion.—lltherewas an application made, and those
immediately concerned did not op yose the Motion, then
notice was deemed unnecessary. flies he understood the
rule, but if -he misunderstood it, he begged 'the House
would corred him.
The House.assented to this statement of the. Rule.

to which the Hon. Member alluded: There was no de.
sice,to disobey the Orders of the lionse,, oe the, part of.

but he would make one general observation, which Was, ,
that Meinbersoften, with the best .intentions to serve the
Public, palled for Papers,' and the House sometimes 'or_
tiered Papers', the preparitton for which Mat materially'
obstriteted the course Of Public Business ;• this he men-
tioned with, a view' only 'of inducing Getitienien to
berate a good deal before they moyecl for, and the IlOilse to
eonsitier a good deal before they ordered Papets
,to be' laid
before.them, except in cases of actual neceality; forit was
