PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, MAY 10.

Mr. MANSFIELD, and other Members from the House of
Commons, brought up several Private Bills, which were read a
first time.

Mr. OSBO n NE, from the Commissioners of the Margate Pier,
presented certain accounts.

CATHOLIC CLAIMS.
The LORD CHANCELLOR presented Petitions against
the Claims of the Catholics from a parish in the West Riding
of York, and from the parish of St. John, Westminster.
Earl GROSVENOR adverted to a petition from the Island
of Portland, presented on a tinnier evening by the Noble and
Learned Lord on the Woolsack; and observed, that petitions
against the Claims of the Catholics were got up without any
person being found to father them. A petition against the Ca-
tholics had been presented from the large and populous town of
Manchester, but he understood from good authority that it
spoke the sentiments of only a very small portion of the inha-
bitants. He (Lord Grosvenor) had now to present a petition
in favour of the Catholics from this important town, and it gave
him peculiar pleasure so to do. The Noble Earl then presented
a Petition in favour of Catholic Emancipation from the town of
Manchester.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said; that after the explana-
tion he had given relative to the petition from Portland, he had
hoped either that the Noble Earl would have dropped the sub-
ject, or would have given notice of his intention to allude to it.
lie (the Lord Chancellor) could only repeat, that the petition
in question had been sent up to 111 r. Bankes, with a request
that it might be given to him (the Lord Chancellor) to present.
He could further say, that the Noble Earl might have an op-
portunity of correcting him, if he were wrong, when the prin-
cipal question came to be discussed, that the people of Eng-
land were never so unanimous in opposing the measure of Ca.
tholic Emancipation as at the present moment.
The Bishop of LINCOLN presented a petition against the
Catholics from several parishes in the diocese of Lincoln.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY presented a petition to the
same effect from the Protestant Dissenters of Gate-street Chapel,
Lincoln's Inn-fields.
The petitions were laid upon the table.
EQUITABLE LOAN BILL.
Lord SUFFIELD presented a petition in favour of the
Equitable Loan Rill, from the town of Oldham, in Lanca-
shire.
Lord DACRE presented a petition to the same effect from
Leicester. The petition, the Noble Lord stated, was agreed to
at a public meeting, at which the Mayor presided.
Lord DACRE then presented a similar petition from the
Merchants of the City of London. . _ _

After some conversation between Lord DAcnE and the Earl
of LAUDERDALE. the second reading of the Equitable Loan
Bill was fixed for Thursday week.
The petitions were then laid upon the table.
CORN LAWS.

The LORD CHANCELLOR presented a petition from
Totness, praying for a revision of the Corn Laws.
Lord SUFFIELD presented petitions from several hundreds
in the county of Norfolk, against any alteration in the Corn
Laws. The Noble Lord observed, that the petitions were re.
spectfully worded, and were well worthy the attention of their
Lordships. He hoped beibre the question was agitated the
landholders would get rid of their groundless alarm.
Viscount MELVILLE presented a petition against any al-
teration in the Corn Laws, from the Clergy of the Church of
Scotland assembled at Perth. _ .

The petitions were laid upon the table.—Adjourned.

HOUSE OF' COMMONS.

This being the day appointed for thithird reading of the
Roman Catholic Relief Bill, the avenue leading to the gallery
was crowded at an early hour.—At four o'clock Mr. SPEAKER

Mr. GLA DSTONE presented a petition from the Merchants
of Edinburgh and Leith Water Works Bill.
Mr. SYKES presented a petition from the Ship Owners of
Hull, in favour of the Hull Docks Bill.
Mr. MONCK presented a petition from Benjamin Mills,
praying for an alteration in the Poor Laws.—Laid on the table.
A return was brought up and laid on the table, relative to
the rate of labourers' wages, as ordered by a Committee of the
House. _

The annual return of the accounts of the Margate Pier Com-
pany was presented and laid on the table.
Mr. MONTEITH presented a petition from Glasgow,
against the Clyde Navigation bill.—Referred to a Committte
on the said Bill.
Mr. GORDON presented a petition from certain inhabitants
of Henley-upon-Thames, against the Basingstoke Canal Bill.
mr. HURST presented a petition from the Duke of Nor-
folk,against the Sheffield Road Bill.—Ordered to be laid on
