Reuse.
_ I) Mr. FINCH seconded the motion.
Lord PALMERsToN said that this question had for some
months past engaged the attention of her Majesty's Govern-
, 1 went. Its August last they had understood it was the inten-
I tion of the Danish Government to impose a transit duty on
' ships between Lubeck
and Hamburg ; and also that that duty
was not to be equal, but that it was to be double for goods
going to the Baltic. The first question that ought to be cons'-
: tiered was, whether the Danish Governmeet had a right to im-
• pose a transit duty, and he was afraid there was no ground
on which they could deny the right of Denmark to
impose a transit duty on 'goods passing through its
territory,.previded that duty was moderate, and not more
than equrvalent for services which that country might afford,
and provided it was equal on all nations. The Government had
pretested against the inequality, and the result of
their representationt was, that in December last the
Danish Government informed them that it was their
intention to equalize the duties by reducing the
high duty to the amount of the low duty, which was five
sehillens per cwt. So far that was satisfactory, but then it
"oliPeared
which there was another principle of inequality existing,

was an exemption in favour of commodities that came
from certain Countries. The staple goods of Russia and the
tGl3haleaytti e were exernet, while the staple goods of England were
subject to the duty. The Government also remonstrated upon

Hear, hear.) The point at issue was one
that ought not to be mentioned to the House. He should have
all objection to produce the correspondence which related to
that branch of the question brought to a final issue—the equality
of the duty; but he thought the House would perceive it was
not expedient to produce the correspondence relating to the
lansettled question. When the question was brought to a ter-
mination ene way or the other, he would offer no ob-
jection to its production.—( Hear, hear.) There was a
PritbarY question pending, , the right ef Denmark
*a levy this duty at all ; and with regard to the Sound dues, a
question of considerable importance had of late been mooted—
viz., whether the duties now levied by Denmark were not
Greater than she was by ancient usage or treaty entitled to. He
begged, however, to decline expressing any decided opinion
Upon that point. But the attention of the Government was
airected to it, and it was their intention to ascertain what was
.tautthe just right of Denmark on that subject. If it should turn
at the duties exceeded what she was entitled to levy, the
Xiritish Government would think it right to make remonstrances
bIP" that point. With regard to the Stade duties, there could
be no doubt that they were levied to a much greater amount
than was right or just, and that they were levied in a. very
'vexatious manner, and that subject was under their considern-
ti°n.--( Hear, hear.) If the Hon. Gentleman would limit his
Motion at present to copies or extracts of any correspondence
Upon that branch of the subject which had been settled, he
(Lord Palmerston) would then offer no objection to the motion.
ilnMr. HUME felt, and he was sure the House of Commons
erdftohreieposunniterhy would feel, greatly indebted to the Hon. Mem-
for the manner in which he had brought for-
ward this subject. At the same time he thought the answer
of the Noble Lord was perfectly satisfactory ; and he would
advise the Hon. Gentleman to accede to the suggestion of the
Noble Lord.
t.
or Mr. AARON CHAPMAN said, the Soared dues were levied
andthe purpose of keeping up lights and giving accommodation
and he thought were perfectly fair.
he
PEASE said the Sound dues far exceeded what was
tiecessary to keep up the lights.--( Hear, hear.) The Stade
duties were operating most grievously, and such a state of
''Mint ought not to be allowed to continue.—(Hear, hear. )
Mr. GIBSON had never heard anybody before pretend to
buy as the Hon. Member for Whitby (Mr. Aaron Chapman)
'ad, done, that the Sound dues were a mere compensation for
weat Denmark had done; and he (Mr. G.) thanked him for
the admission that the Sound dues ought net to be more than
sufficient to compensate Denmark for the maintenance of buoys
and lights—( Hear, hear.) He was perfectly willing to adept
the amendment proposed by the Noble bird.
The motion as amended was then agreed to.
Sir F. BURDETT then rose to call the attention of the
itionse to the petition of Mr. Dillon, prd on th 27th
NI/larch. That that Gentleman had filled hisesente situation ein the
'. y with credit to himself, was not doubted, and he would
therefore refer to the facts of the case. On the occasion to
,which he now referred, Mr. Dillon put out from the Cove of
"rk, for the purpose of intercepting a smuggler, and chased
her until she was obliged to take shelter in a place, where she
was captured, and afterwards condemned. The tide-master of
the harbour, into which the smuggles. was driven, took pos-
session of the vessel, and obtained the prize-money, notwith-
s'anding the capture had been caused by the conduct of Mr.
Dillon. He believed, in point of law, there was no doubt that
Mr. Dillon was entitled to the capture, for which he had re-
ceived the thanks of the Treasury. Shortly after the capture,
Dillen went to the West Indies, and it was not until his
return, that he heard the vessel had been condemned,
and a
very large sum of money, 11,0001., had been adjudged, to a
portion of which he was entitled. He immediately made his
been elaim, and ascertained that a charge of cowardice had
wmade against him. He made
an alica te
Lord Althorp, who said that if that charge tion
could
be cleared off, the case might be altered. The charge
was disproved, and he then looked to have the case disposed of.
Ile wrote to Lord Althorp, and received an answer stating that
• he was surprised the claim had not, been settled long before, but
he should soon be in London and would look into the matter.
. Unfortunately Lord Althorp went out of office, and the matter
xas main delayed. Mr. Dillon wrote to Admiral Stopford,
ho, in his reply, stated that he was exculpated from all
charges. After all this he could not see why Mr. Dillon should

'a complete, triumphant, and conclusive reply to every statement

ble Hon. Baronet had been the victim of a delusive statement.
This trasisaction occurred in the year 1822, and he would not
I,!ay that the lapse of time was a bar to the claim if it were a
,ist one, but certainly it cast a suspicion on the case. Four
changes in the Government had since occurred—Lord Liver-
?eel, the Duke of Wellington, Lord Grey, Sir Robert Peel, and
Lord Melbourne, had each been appliej to, and had each ex-
, pressed an opinion unfavourable to Mr. Dillon's claim. Ac-
,;rding to Mr. Dillon's own claim, a heavy gale of wind was
ft wing at the time. Mr. Dillon, without
any orders, went to
,ea'a,because he said his crew was a bad one, and he wished to
;!ni?r ess on their minds that he was determined to do his duty.
l sler these circumstances he met the Peru

:',so many shots, that he compelled her to go into Kinsale.
'a.,from this being the case, however, it was the crew of the
t,raastel who carried her into Kinsale against the authority of the
~".. P ain, for which purpose they rose upon him, as he wished te
e°,eed to the coast of France, which they refused to do on ac-
!omit of the inclemency of the weather. This was in 1822,
and Mr. Dillon did not go the West Indies till 1824,

enal,, , aJWICK opposed the motion.
ic, r'aflbn BOLDER()couId not conceive what possible ob •
tir,Al:'..,4 • .ere e. tad
tied t be to te motion. His object was to bring
-*" ', motion respecting the pensions granted to marim s
° 'how the House there was a vast distinction between
, - --"'”teeee.—_

the pensions granted to the line and the pensions granted to the
marines. The Government wanted to defeat him in that
object, and therefore threw every obstacle in his way. But he
would take the sense of the House on the motion.
Loud HOWICK did not oppose the motion from any desire
to withhold from the House or the country any information
respecting the pensions awarded to marines ; on the contrary
all the information the Government could give was already on
the table of the House. But his great objection to the motion
was, because from the terms in which it was framed it was
impossible to make any answer to it.
Lord G. LENNOX was as strong an advocate of the ma-
rines as the Hon. and Gallant Member opposite could be,
but he • would entreat him not to press the motion to a divi-
sion, for he was afraid the marines would not benefit by the
result of it.
Captain BOLDERO replied—He would alter the words
" would be," to " have been," and that would meet the view of
the Noble Lord.
Mr. HUME suggested that the object of the Gallant Captain
would be obtained by moving for returns of the last 50 or 60
marines who had been pensioned with the relative service.
Capt. BOLDERO had no objection to adopt that course.
Lord HOWICK said he would deal with the notice as he
found it. If the Gallant Captain wished to make another
motion, let him put a regular notice on the paper.
Lord MAHON trusted the motion would not be pressed.
Captain BOLDERO gave notice that he should on Monday
move for a return of the last 100 men discharged in December
last,,and withdraw his present motion.
Mr. FINCH, in consequence of the absence of the President
of the Board of Trade, postponed the motion of which he had
given notice, that on the consideration of each Report of a
Railway Bill, if power has been given by Parliament to the
Company to borrow money in anticipation of calls of the capital
stock, to bring up a clause to oblige the Directors to make calls of
that part of the capital stock of the Company on security of
which money shall have been borrowed by instalments of not
less than five pounds each, at intervals of not longer than three
months, and to apply the amount of them to the re-payment o
the loan so borrowed.
LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.

Mr. FINCH moved that the evidence taken before the
London and Birmingham Railway Committee be printed.
Mr. WILLIAMS seconded the motion. The Company had
obtained large sums of money, and great powers affecting the
public, and the evidence which had been given showed the use
which they had made of those powers. He would not attach so
much importance to the printing of this evidence had he not
understood it was the intention of the Directors, on bringing
up the Report of the Bill, to oppose a clause which had been
unanimously agreed to by the Committee, as to the manner in
which a million of money should be raised. He thought the
public were entitled to know the nature of this property which
was in the market like Consols, Sugar, or any other commo-
dity. He was astonished at the enormous powers
given to these Companies as against the public at large,
The evidence was given exclusively by the Directors and their
servants, and he could not understand on what ground the mo-
tion was to be opposed.
The question was then put and agreed to.
LIGHTING THE HOUSE.
Sir FREDERICK TRENCH said this was a question af-
fecting the health and safety of all the Members of this House.
Considering the Hon. Member for Kilkenny the managing
partner in this Bude light concern, he would appeal to him.
He considered the light only fit for an assembly of eagles. He
was the last man to object to the expense of experiments, but
he did complain that he was denied the expenditure of a few
shillings when the Hon. Member for Kilkenny could obtain an
expenditure of hundreds without responsibility. The expense
would be immense, and the danger of explosion was eonsidera-
ble. When they were lighted they must be watched ; so that
either there must be a philosopher to each lens, or a peripatetic
philosopher to superintend the whole of them. He had a com-
plaint to make. Sixty lights were withdrawn at the beginning
of the Session; he was unable to obtain the restoration of the
lights without a vote of the House. He intended now to wash
his hands of all experiments for lighting the House, and would
leave it to the Hon. Member for Kilkenny to make the best he
could of the experiment he had now taken under his patronage.
If the Bude light was found the best, in God's name let the pre-
sent plan be rejected and that light substituted in its room.
The Hon. Member then withdrew his motion.
Major CHETWYND moved for a Return of the names of
the Colonels and other Officers of the different regiments of
Militia in England and Vales; the dates of their seve:al Corn-
missions ; distinguishing those who have served in the House-
hold Brigade, the Line, or 'loyal Navy, together with the rank
obtained by them in any of the above services, and whether on
half pay at this time, or holding Commissions in any Yeomanry
regiment, if so, the date of such Commission.
After a few observations from Lord Howick, Col. Wood,
Mr. Hume, and Major Chetwynd, the return was agreed to.
PRISONS BILL.
On the Motion that the House should resolve itself into a
Committee on the Prisons Bill,
Mr. DARBY wished to know whether it was the intention
of the Noble Lord to go into a Committee at that late hour.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL said, he propozed now to postpone
the 14th clause relative to Catholic clergymen to a future day,
and to go through the other clauses that night as they had a
full half hour before the usual time of adjourning.
The House then went into Committee on the Bill, all the
clauses of which, Nith the exception of the 14th, were agreed
to

Lord J. RUSSELL intimated his intention to take the dis-
cussion on the 14th clause on to-morrow se'nnight.
The House then resumed ; the other orders of the day were
disposed of and the House adjourned at 12 o'clock.
