Accounts ordered :by Parliantent, trom the eleirge '
of an intentional delay. At the Same time; Ir, hoped
' that Gentlemen would not introduce the custom of
makingmotions,for presenting and printing of Pub_
lie Papers, as mere matters of course. He:explain-
; ed the sum of two mita-ens and a half granted for
1 EXtraordinalies' of the Army, for the year tfsOo;
that that sum 'WAS -atqually paid in z goo, for such
Services T a- matter of course ; • and proceeded to
give a similar .explanation' respeting other sums
which had. gen voted. -
I •
Mr. TONES said, he conceived he had a light
to call for any Papers, without being obliged to as-
sign any ,reason for so doing..
. • Mr., STEELE said, he did not question . the.
right; but, at the same time, it was the right of
Parliament to decide, whether the Papers moved fur
' should be granted.
..
. Mr. ROBSONsaid, he was not able to trace any
Account in the Office of the Paymaster of the Army,
and with regard to those Accounts which bad been
presented, they were without dates.
' Mr. Roasox withdrew' his Motion in expeda.
tion that the Papers moved for, would be presented.
on Monday. .
A Message from the Lordi informed the House
N.
that their Lordships had agreed to the Public ota-
ries' RegUlation „Bill, to the Nova Scotia and Li-
. bradore Fishing Bill, to the Transfer Stamp Duty
Bill, the Irish Sugar Importation Bill, the Exche.
quer Bills Bill, and to several other Bills. .
Lrd FOLKSTONE said, he rose to move for',
leave to bring in a Bill for the betterregulation of
the Corn Market. He said, that inconsequence of
I an :opposition Which .he had met With from an un.
expected quarter, it, would be necessary for hint to
enter into some .detail.of die proposed measure,—
His Lordship then proteeded to state the °Ned of
his plan, and at the same time vindicated himself
from the charge,of interfering in the business of the
• , Committee appointed to inquire into the 'High
Price of 'Provisions. He insisted that that Conimit.
. tee had• not directed the attention of the House to
.
- such regulations as he meant to propose, and that
. . the evidence before that Committee had not led them
to snipe& that Such abases existed as those to which
i he alluded. 'He observed that. it was owing to the
"Iludfuating state of the Corn Market, that specula-
tion `and importation were prevented, and that he
meant to propose means for regulating the Price.
He would alsci propose that Agents and Fadors be
aubjed to have their. accounts laid open for the in..
pertion of their •employers ; at present they made
no return to whom Corn was sold,' and thus they
! , icipt Mealmca and 'Bakers subservient to. their
views of interest. It to redify such abuses,
and to introduce certain regulations into the Mae-
ket, . that he moved for leave to bring in this Bill.'
' A cenversationensued, when
The SECRETARY at WAR said, he . bad no
tidily to give any hostile opposition to the measure,
,at the same time he' thought it better to wait,
for the opinion of the Committee being laid before
the House, and he thought that the existing Ads of
31 and 32 Geo. HI. enjoining Corn Fadors. to
give Returns of Grain sold by them, superseded the
necessity of the Noble Lord's Motion.
• . Lord FOLKSTOVE, with consent of the House,
I withdrew his Motion.
'On the Motion for the second reading of the Irish
Indemnity Bill,
Mr. ADDINGTON said, he wished it to be un-
! ' derstood, that he did not consider the' present nor
!.: the preceding Bill of this nature, to be a matter of
; trivial importance,, or that persons thinking them.Li
; selves aggrieved, should be deprived of Ale advan.,
of ..
tage civil;process ;if that was withheld, it must
be from necessity, for otherwise, he admitted, that
1 there was thereby a violation of the Constitution.
He would observe, that the present measure came
recommended by the Committee of Secrecy, although
• , that was hot the on)y ground on which it rested.
He must,. however, remark, that from the .zit
William and Mary, to the dine when the Coin,
mittee of Secrecy was appointed, six or ''seven Ads
of Indemnity had passed, .and not one of these was
preceded by any recommendation, or investigation
of a Committee, or in consequence t)f, Papers laid on.
th.e. Table of the House. The present Bill was
brought in upon the notoriety of the ease. In Ire-
' . land; not a few individuals merely were implicated in
the suspicitin, or charge of Seditious Practices, but
i. .
*hole Counties had been in Insurredion. This was
.
ct measure founded sit)rin the circumstances of the in.
ternal insiirreelion. of the. Country. The Report-
p etatedi that maps, persons had been deterred from
giving their evidence from personal danger. This
.13ill_was sandioned by the necessity of thecae, :And
strengthened by. every thing that hadToccurred. Be
