Mr. DENT called the attention of the House to a
subje6t of very great importance, he meant some
pra&ices that had been resorted to respeaing the
Lancaster Eleaion. He proceeded to state the cir-
cumstances to which he alluded. During the
Lancaster Eleaion he certainly had done nothing
whiCh he could have expetted to form the ground
of the charge against him. It was not, therefore,
without surprise, that he observed that on the last
day for presenting Petitions, one had been presented
against him, charging him with bribery and corrup-,
tion. On inquiry, he found that five of the 'per-
sons • Subscribing to the Petition were-not in Lan-
caster at fhe time of the Eleaion. But the Petition
being presented, it became necessary for the par-
ties who presented it to examine whether the alle-
gations were true, and Mr. Adcock, of York-,
street,
,in the Borough, went to Lancaster, which
was placed in a stew by the boldness of his assertions
respe&ing his power apt{ intention to turn out
its Members. He then further stated, that forged
warrants were sent to the witnesses .to attend ; that
Mr. AllcOck had sent a letter to his (Mr. Dent's)
Solicitor, expressing his wish to put off the ballot,
as there was a material witness for the Petitioners
Who could nOt attend; and yet he had a letter from
'Mr. Allcock te'thisarne witness, stating that there
Was no occasion for his attendanCe: He had wit-
nesses in 'the lobby ready to prove these circum-
stances, and proposed to call them.
The SPEAKER suggested that the best mode would
be to move that the subjea should be considered on
a future day, and to- have an order for the attendance
of the witnesses; and of Mr. Allcock.
Mr. TIERNEY knew nothing of the present trans-
aaion, but spoke in favour of the general. conduct
Of Mr. Allcock.

A 'conversation then ensued between Lord Ho-
WICK, Mr. STURGES BOUT:NE, Sir JOHN NEWPORT#
Mr. TIERNEY, jand Mr. DENT, resp&Aing the' ,iay
on which thebusiness should come on. It was at
length agreed that it-should, be cbmidered to-mor-_

row, after the. Irish -business (the Budget) teas
finiAied ; and the Witnesses and Mr. Alcock were
ii..!cordint.l!y ordered to attend.
OFFICES, PLACES, &c.

• Mr. „BA NKES rose, pursuant to notice, to move
his Resolution against the granting of Offices, Places.
or Employments in reversion. Though this was a
-• ssubjeet of the greatest importance, ,yetlse-did not
s
conceive that there was any necessity -for detainiug
• the House by any long preface, as be Was not aware
that therecould be any obje&ion to the Motion. It
. :. did not rest solely on his personal authority, but
• • 'carne recommended by the Committee . on Offices
lately appointed by the House, of which he was
Chairman. In the first part of their inquiry it
struck them, that the granting of. Offices in rever-
sion required reform. This pradiee had not for some
• time been so much abused as formerlyin this coun-
try ;, but with respect to Ireland, he believed the
case was different. It -was, he apprehended, in
every point of view proper to..restrairr this prac-
tice ; and therefore he Concluded by moving aßeso-
-lution—" That no Offiee,-Place, or Employthent,,
in any part of his IVlajesty's dominions, ought to be
granted in reversion." .
YORK.k; gave every possible, credit .to the
motives of his Hon. Friend, and of the Committee,
and yet he felt a goodsdeal Of difficulty in assenting
to this Motion. 'The doubt in-his mind was, whe-
ther the ancient and accustomed practice ought to
be altered when, as'stated by his lion. Friend him=
soll, it had of late been but little abused. It was a
favoorite, maxim with him not to change established
Usages unless he saw some strong reason-for it. This
()Taming of Offices in reversion had been a power in
t'le hands of the crown for the purpose of reward-
in .services; and hitherto it had; in fact, been a
saving to, the Public; for unlesS these Offices could
• bP given in this manner, services, if they were re-
, wardedat all, must be rewarded by a grant,, and a
_double burthen must thus be laid upon She Public.
The objeft of this,Mation, as had.been stated, was
'undoubtedly of the greatest importance;,and yet the
House was called upon to decide .uprin it at once.
.The notice had only been given yesterday, and given
in such a manner, that until he came dosyn this day
he did not exadly know the purpbrt'd it. He,
toped;therefore, that
.the HOtisesosOsitleast take
- more time to consider of it. lithe Motion had been
- for leave to brims in- asßill, fib would have had no
eiiedion.to it, because he could. then have stated
jiffs objethous in the different 'staeges, provided he
thodght it was liable to-objectio% Av. as, the Mos
lion was for a Resolution,.he ;vas inchiiect to dissent.
from it ; for even though it shoUld be followed by
31 Bill, those -arDuinb against that Bill; Would be
under an evident disadvantage when suche Re-
solution as this-stood on. the Journals. He hoped,
therefore, the Motion would :be postponed ; if not,
he would be under the necessity' of giving it his
pegative.
Lard •./Ks"WICK declared the - .Motion had .his
most cordial support, and he had heard no obje,etions
that induced
,him in the least to think that it ought
• to be postponed. As to the notice, it was perfedly
sufficient, having been given in 'a frill attendance of
the I-louse ; and besides, it was marked by an ob-
servation of hiS, which he now repeated, that no
OGices, bad, by the presept Administration, been
granted in reversion. But this, however, he :must
in some degree explain, in order to meet a sort of ff
contradiai,n which had been attempted to be given
' 1,0 this observation. He had not been aware at the
time he made 'the statement that one or. two Law.
Offices of the Court. of Chancery -had been'granted
in this meaner. This, howeaer,, he apprehended
did not apply to the present motion, as he should
think that the Honourable•Gsentlemao meant to con-
fine it to the offices held immediately by.gtant from
the Crown. The fad was, that the • Lord Chan-
cellos.- had obtained from his Majesty permission to
grant the offices in question to the person. who held
the lucrative situation• of his Clerk.during his 'ex-
. teruiive practice at the Bar, in order to make some
provision for, him, and to compensate his loss, in
esnseqUenee of the advancement dfhhis employer to ,
the Chancellorship. But with regard to the great
the Ministry had made it a rul* to grant
none in reversion, and it is well known they had it
in their power to grant a Tellership. Then is to
the propriety of the Motion, however old any prac-
t;ce might be, he thought it waqmproper to con-
foots it it it was liable top-osS.rabti-Ses As to the
inutility of these reversionary grants, he had always
found a general- concurrence of opinion.. He would
not enter upon the arguments to prove that Motility
a; present, but reserve them till the. Bill came for-
ward. The Right Honourable' Gentleman (Mr.
'!i'ork,e) said, 'that. if theseoreversions were taken
iway, a double burthen would be imposed on the
rewarding services. He must surely have.
Linked very slightly into the, matter; •for it is well
• known that the reversions came to persons at an
age when :they-could have-performed no 'services;
tios 6st:sequence was, that though meritorious
per,orti remained to be provided for, these offices, •
though they dropped, could not, be had for that
purpose, and thus the ;Public was- indeed saddled'
with a double burthen: 'TherefOre, on his own
ground, , of rewarding services, and preventing' .
a double burthen to the Public, the present Mo-
. tion ought to •be supported. The Right Ho-
• nodrable Gentleman then objeded to the Mode
Of bringing, forward this subjett. He would have
bad -no .objeaion to, a Motion 'for leave to bring in
Bill, but he disapproved of. a Reselution. As he
(Lord Ilowick) apsroved of-the measure itself; so
it appro;itei- of the Mede; because, if it was fit to
eiiteitain the proceeding at all, it Nvas fit that grants
in- reversion should be restraited in the'-ihterim ; for
none, would venture. to propose such algrarit, with
this P,esolut* on the Journals, fiouse.bad
filly considered 'the subjeet, .-Whlither any ex-
• seaordinaiy, abuses had been committed of late, M
the grantu of reversions, he could fiqt, from his
own koousiedge, positively say; but he certainly un-
derstood, that at no very -remote -period the pradice
• bad beets carried to a coti4iderable extent in Ireland.

that they had his* most -ardent tha'n'ks. •He ht ird -a
report that the new Government ,Avere .endeavour-
ing to procure for an Honourable and Learned Gen-
tleman (Mr. 'Percival perhaps), for life, an office
connected with the Duchy of Lancaster, now held
during pleasure, with a view to induce hint to accept
nfanother place during, pleasure. fle.really thought
that this, was extremely improper, for every. Gentle-
man, when an office during pleasure ,was offered
him; bad the choice to accept it or not. But at
all events, he protested against this praaice of
clueing persons to accept of offices during pleasure, by
the grant of other offices foe life. ,
. , Sir .TORN NE wPORT rose merely., for the pur,
pose of stating, that if this Resohnion had passed
two years ago, the HoUSe would 'not have stood in
the situation in -which it waS now placed with respect}
to the regulating of certain 'Offices in Ireland, in;
stead of abolishing them. He mentioned, an office
in Ireland which had dropped twice during that
period, and, which could not be got at, as it was
still in the possession' of some one under a never=
Aionarygrant. • .;

Mi. JOHNSTONE approved of the Motion,
which was pertealy consistent withthe principles on
which his Honourable Friend (Mr. Bankes) had al.-
ways aded, and he thought it was a happy omen of
what we might expeet from-the exertions of the'
Committee of which he was Chairman. -As to what
bad been said concerning 'the Learned Gentleman,
a Member of this House, he thought that he ought not
to have been alluded to in the manner be had been,
upon such vagueauthority as common rumour. Ever,'
one who, kneW that Learned -Gentlemati:wonld be
'satisfied that he would do nothing inconsistent vita
hispublic duty. He was happy to find,. .however,
that those approved most of the present Motion
whom the Public considered as loaded with 'offices -
and places. 'He wished that this Motion had passed
40 years ago, and then one family would not haVe• at
this time engrossed places to the amount of 60,0001.
annnally. But however eager they might have been
'for places, he was glad that at last they had changed
thefr tone.
Mr. PLUMED, in explanation, observed, that
what he stated respeCting a Learned 'Gentleman did
nOt rest entirely on vague rumour, as he had same
intimat ion• of itfrotia a Gentleman near hith (we be-
lieve Mr. Huskisson), although he did, not pretend
to say that it had'been stated to him as a matter of
certainty. If the rumour was false, however, What
he said could do no harm; if true; it might do some
gOod. 'When the Hon. Gebtleman talked of one
family engrossing a deal of the public money, he
supposed he could not allude to him, as he was not
of a family of this description (a laugh).
Lora HENRY PETTY, though he approved of
the present Motion, rose,, not so much for the pur-
pose of expressing that approbation, as' with a
view to apologize 'to the House for, not having
brought forward the subjeet himself. .He entertain-
ed the same opinion with the Committee some time
ago, and intended to havynade. a similar Motion,
and, for that purpose, bad moved for an accOinit, of
the offices granted in reversion, wl:ieh v. as now on
the table. He had, he believed, co no notice -of
his intention, bUt he had only not p:9ijosed the')liill •
before, as he bad not been aware of any immediate
necessity for it. He had a,surances on the subjed,
and in favour of his view of it, from the Noble Per-
son at the head of atElirs in Ire laird, -and froin the
Noble Lord here, too, to whOrn the Honourable
Gentleman.opriosite (Mr Dohnsione) had alluded._
He had with singular propriety adverted to that Nib-
ble Lbrd in the language of reproach on that day,
when it was well known that he had. poWer to grant
a considerable office in , reversion, and yet that the
only use be made of it was to abstain from exer.:
cising a privilege which had been` used by every, one
who preceded him. That Noble Lord had already
laid down in pradice what it was now propOsed to
lay down in theory, and therefore the Honourable
Gentleman's allusion was 'peculiarly well timed,--
When he approved Of the Resolutions now- moved,
he ought to recolletl that Lord Grenville had already
acted upon the principle. • It was not, therefore, by
those who followed the practice
.of granting °tikes ,
in reversion that the Resolution was loudly ,approv-
ed of, notwithstanding the Honourable Gentlemin's
insinuation, but b those who abstained. from it. '
Mr. MARTIN expressed his approbation of the Re-
solution, and gave notice that to-morrow he Would
Move for an burnble,Address to his Majesty,.that of-
fices riot at present held for life, should be held only
. during his-pleasure; , •
:General GASCOYNE disapproved Of the britiging
forward this Resolution at present; because he
thought it looked very suspicious, and had the, ap-,.
pearance of being intended to restrid the ne.W.'Go-
vernment.
sln the absence- of all.those,. ac-
cording to report, were to .have a share in thatiGo7
vernment, it was not properto pressit.. N9,Aptice.
had been given of it that must necessari*lave
reached them. At all events, though it should PasS
atpresent, that must:not be considered as a pledge
to support the
Mr. HORNER, in reply to the insinuation;' that
this measure - was intended to restrict the new, Ad-
ministration, stated that it was one of the first:sub-
jeds that laid- under the cOnsideration of the Com-
mittee, and there was one Gentleman, who, it. was
,said, was to form oneof the new Ministers,' had
perfealy concurred in We propriety of such a Reso-.
lotion as this. He thought -the Honourable -Gene-
ran remarks rather extraordinary, as he was 'sure
that neither the. Committee nor his Honourable
Friend .deserved the insinuations thrown out against I
them., . .

General GASCOYNE denied having insinuated any!
thing against the Committee or Chairman.
Mr. SHERID4N. agreed. that .the Honourable
General had cast no insinuation on the Comtnitige or
On the Chairman,
-but maintained he hadqhrown opt
a very gross one against -the new Government.
Could those who were coming in, in defence of the.
Prerogative of the Crown, as was stated—rwho,were
coming in on the purest and most ciisintere.attrd mo-'
Lives, forsooth—who were to proteia.. the Crov.in:
against the force and violence which had .been- al-
ledged—could they propose-to establish their,antho-
rity by buying and selling places for lif(-.! This:was"
surely 'a curious insinuation coining from a:per,:r,n
who seemed disposed to support the new
stration. With Tegarcijo thefatmly offices alluded to,
by an Honourable Gentleman, these, -he ought to.
ilavo recolletied, were for. geryces .done. • Bilt It

was quite nnother thing to buy the entrance of men
into office by the grant Of places for life. This was
a deplorable speeimep of the support which it was
,inteneci to giye to the new Government. He
hoped the Gentleman would be enabled to give a
better support when his friends a(qually came into
office:

• General GASCOI'NE said that he had been so to-
tally in4repreAented; that he believed •the Right
fiononrable Gentleman could not have understood

HUSKlsSON,observed, that the charar

of his Hon.-Friend (Mr. Bankes) was of itself suf-
ficient evidence that this was no party measure. He
would remind the, Gentlemen on the other side of
the first Bill introduced by the present Administra-
tion, which went to vest an Office in a persbn hold-
ing another incompatible with it. ,This ought 'to
prevent theth frPm taking so much credit to them-
selves, and from expressing so much hostility to the'
granting an Office for life to induce a person to ac-
cent another during pleasnre. However, on that
point he knew nothing, except from rumour.' He
knew only by report .of the arrangements which;.
perhaps, were not fully. completed, and which had
not as yet been submitted to the highest quarter, nor
received the final sanetion. Of course he could say
nothing on that head that could be of sufficient foun-•
dation for observation or argument. -•-
Mr. WHITBREAD observed, that without giv-
ing any opinion upon the Merits of the case (that of
i.Lord Grenville) referred to by the:Hon: Gentleman
(\r johnstone),.he had no hesitation,in asserting,'
that there was a material ditreketiee between that
case and the one more parfictilarly alluded td in the
course of this debate : for in the one, the objet was'
to enable a man to hold an Office which was con.-
ferred upon him-for life, in conjunction 'with one- to
which he was appointed during' 'pleasure, 'and,. for
that purpose the sanation of Parliament was applied
for, and obtained ; while in the other the proposi-
tion was; that an Office •-heretofore keld during plea....
-sin-esti-mild be conferred for life, and that COO at the
mere will of the Crown, in order, as rumour`stated;
to induce a' man to accept another Office,during
pleasure. With regard to the Noble Family al-
luded to by the Honourable Qentle'rnan on 'the other
side as balding places of.cohsiderable'profit, did the'
Hononiable • Gentleman mean Co assert, that the'
holding places of profit bypublie Omen "was incon-
sistent with the purity of public cliaraeldr.?.if the
Hon. Gentleman did Mean that, such a: sentiment'
must be heard xvith peculiar surprise fromisua a
-quarter, after the panegyric which •the Hon: Gen .!-•
tleman had thought proper to prondunce upon the.
'public spirit and patriotism of his Right Honour tbl
Friend—(we understood the alhision to. Mr.' Percig'
val) : for that Hon. Gentleman must knovj, that :AY
place of the very highest' profit in the country Oa.
granted in.reverSion to a person of the. name of Per-
cival ; :and again in reverision to another person of
the same ,narne:' The Hon. 'Gentleman fexpres.sed
his heart felt approbatiOn of the measure which the 1,
?Motion before the HOnse had inView.; and in can- l•
enfrence with the" Hon. Member his regret that such,
a measure had not been introduced 40 years ago. in r
alluding to ihe Hon. Mover, hecould not help ex. I
pressing his surprisethat-any man .who had the leasll
opportunity of appreciating the charaater of that Hon.
Gentleman could suppo-Se him capable of binding
himself to the purposes of any' party. The House
indeed. must have heard with astonishment the im-
putation which an Hon: Gentleman oti -the other 4
side had thought proper to throw out. , The Hon. ,
Member' concluded with declaring his cordial con-
currence in the Motion beiore
,ilie House, against
whiCh he had not heard a single argument ; and his. 1
anxious wish for the succ.ess,of the Motion of which
his Honourable Fiend behind him had given notice
for to-Morrow.

Mr. RusKissoiv in explanation stated, that he
did not mean 'to. assert a cotnplete'anafegy betweeti:
the ease of the•Nob!e Lord alluded to :(Lord
vine), and thdt which appeared to be so much 4;e
view in the present discussion,.,' He merely meant
to infer from the former case, that in the contetrij'l
plation of ministerial arrangements, 'the'natdre of aw
office might be changed by conne&ing it with ones
with which it was previou'ly deemed -altogether in
compatible. To be sure in one case the change
,evald be affeeted only by the sanetion'of Parliament,
whereas in the other it was suite subject to the will
of the King.

Mr. PARNELL thought that it behov,ed the
HO,use to take 'peculiar care upon a question of this
nature.. For, understanding that a certain Noble Lord
(Lord Castlereagh, as we understood) was iikely "to
hold a leading situation in that House, whOse condutf
in Ireland could not escape his 'recolleCtion,- he was
fully convinced of the necessity of vigilant precaution.
He (Mr. Parnell) had the honourot7a seat in theliouse
of cornmons in Ireland during the discussions upUif
the sub.vet of Union, and be4emenibered ,that tile
first ,Sessions that-measure tvas proposed,, two fa-
milies of some Parliamentary influence stood neuter.
But in the following Session, under this NobJe
Lord's management of reversions, theSe two faMilies
were brought- into action, and by such means the
Union was' voted by a small majority. A son of one
ofthesefatuilies was, to his ownknowledge, secured in
the 'reversion of the Clerkship of the Pelts in Ireland,'•
and to a son of the other family tie, imagined that a'
reversionof a • More serious nature was prOtifised-
for the first Bishopric that became vacant was.asisign-,
ed to him. With these faCts iu his recolleation, and
with the prospeCt now before the HOUse, he thoughC
that everyprnareable,guard against cbrruptiorioligith:
to be immediately established;
'Mr.' JOHNSTONE disclaimed any
.intention to
assert any. ihtn„cr so absurd, as that the holding,of a"'
public place of profit vas incompatible 'With 'the'
rJty, of public charaCter. •He only meant, -to--say,
that it ad-bided him great satisfa(tion, to heal:. a Birp-:
