known to‘depcnd.
Lord HAWKESSURY and the LORD CII.INCE4OR
disclainied the doarine that the Bill v,-as subversive
of the, Constitution, inimical to the prerogative, or
repugnant,_ to the dignity of that House. If it 'had
any. such tendency; it never Should have had their
countenance and support.
Lord bAWNLEY did not think the Bill sufficient,
but he still should support, and consider it as a
pledge of what the House was farther disposed to
do, and as a pledge which he'trusted they would
redeem.

The Bill was then read a third time and passed.
The LORD CHANCELLOR informed the .Houk:,

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
THURSDAY, MAY 12.
lord YARMOUTH, Chairman of the, New Mahon
Ele6tion. Com mittee,'reported that the Sitting Mem-
ber was duly, elealed, and the Petition_ net frivolous
or vexatious. ,
Mr. R. WARD presented a Petition from Green-
wick Hospital ; which was referred to a. Committee.
Mr. HUstussoti gave notice that he would to-
inorrow move a Resolution, authorising the Sur-
veyor-General of the. Crown Lands, and the Chan-
cellar of the Duchy of Lancaster, in cases 'within
the Duchy, to appoint a Commissioner to take care
of the interests of the Crown, in all cases of inclo-

DISTILL/01014 OF SUGAR.
Mr. Yotuce presented a Petition from the Land-
owners, Corn-masters, and Mahsters of the County
of Cambridge, against the proposed measure of ex-
clusive Distillation from Sugar. . •
Mr. Yoaxt hoped that the Chairman and Mem-
bers of the West India Committee, who had recotu-
mended that measure,. would not bring forward the
motion on Monday, according to the notice that
now stood, but that, they would give time for the
satisfaCtory examination of the voluminous docu-
ments that accompanied 04 Report. The im-
portance of the measure required mature delibera-
tibn, and he was sure the Committee could not wish
to hurry it through the House.
Lord BINNING had certainly no wish for im-
proper haste, but no delay could take place con-
sistently, with any prospect of) carrying the measure
Into etTed this year. The length of the Report and
Appendix was chiefly produced by the insertion of
former' Reports already well known. He hoped
the [lon. Gentleman would be able to make him-
self master of all that was new in the Appendix
against Mbnday.,
Mr, W. SMITH spoke to the. same effea. That
part of the Report which touched on the relative
situation of the distiller e, England, Ireland, and
Scotland, may. be left in the discussion on Mon
day, and reserved for another opportunity.
Alter a few words from Sir. JOHN NEWPORT,
the St'EAKi..ti put a stop to the conversation as .ir-
sreinr, and Lord BINNING7,heing again appealed
to, declared, that for the reasons already stated by
him, he must persist in bringing forward his motion
on Monday.,

Duty oti Corks imported ; read a first time, and or-
dered to be read a second time to-morrow.

and passed.
Mr MiCLINTOCI{'s PF:tlTeO24.
Mr. LESLIE FOSTLithrOqlt in Mr. M'Clintoch's
_ Compensation Bill ; which was read a fir 4 tune,
Sir JOHN NEWPORT objected the tots measure, ; s
opening again the. arrangements made 15} the Cool-
pehnittioll•Acts, after the. Unti.n, and dins setting an
example which may lead to much ahuNe and injury.
But if the example should be admit ed, hoi,ed it
would lead to the resumptton ht exclusive enliven-
-8511611s as well as the increase et these that were in-
stoticient.

The CHANCE/4.0g of the 4xcitsattaa allowed
the general impropriety of iivening arratigenwoui
