PARLI AM ENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, FRIDAY, JUNE 24.

Lord SUFFIELD adverted to what had passed yesterday on
the subject of the removal of the assizes from Thetford. to Nor-
wich, which appeared to have been misunderstood. The Ma-
gistrates, he said, had made out a very strong case for the al-
teration, and the only reason assigned against it by the Judges
was, that they would have to travel thirty miles further than
they now did.
Lord DACRE presented a petition from the churchwardens
and others of the parish of Sutton, in the county of Bedford.—
The petition, he observed, was signed by persons of the highest '
respectability, whose characters sufficiently vouched for the
truth of the allegations they made. For his own part, he was
always very reluctant to present any petition affecting the cha-
racter of individuals, unless be had the strongest grounds for
so doing. In this instance complaint was made of the conduct
of a clergyman of the Established Church, and the petitioners
were desirpus that an end might be put to the scandalous scenes
which had occurred among them. It appeared that in 1814-15
Dr. Free had been appointed to the living of Sutton, in Bed-
fordshire. Soon after his appointment, circumstances took
place of so disgusting a nature as to provoke the indignation of
the parishioners. Not only did the petitioners complain of
scenes which they had witnessed, burthey stated that the cler-
gyman had openly about him a number of illegitimate children.
Application had been made on the subject to a Right Reve-
rend Prelate, whom he now saw in his place in the House.---
That Right Rev. Prelate directed proceedings to be instituted
against Dr. Free in the Court of Arches. The learned Judges
of that Court had admitted the truth of the charges ; but by the
Act of Geo. Ili. relative to matters of this kind, proceedings
against a clergyman for incontinence were restricted within very
narrow limits. A doubt was entertained whether the period
might not be enlarged, and that question was brought before
the proper Court. The petitioners prayed that the time for in-
stituting proceedings might be enlarged. He hoped that the
Right Rev. Prelate would, in the course of the present session,
take some decisive step on this subject.
The Bishop of LINCOLN felt as strongly as any man could
the gross immorality which was complained 'of by the peti.
tioners, and none more anxiously wished to put an end to it by
effectual means. Since he had been appointed to the see which he
had now the honour to fill, he had felt it to be his duty to cause
an inquiry to be made into the conduct of the individual men-
tioned in the petition. Finding that all the efforts of the Arch-
deacon to reclaim him were unsuccessful, he had therefore no
course left but to bring the case into the Court of Arches. It
was his bounden duty to proceed in this matter ; but still lie
must say that it was very hard that a Bishop in prosecuting such
a 'case should be put to an expellee of 400/. or 5001. He must
also obsefve that he concurred in opinion with those who thglight
that the statute should be altered.
EQUITABLE LOAN BILL.

Lord DACRICmoved the third reading of this Bill.
The LORD CH.4, NCE LLOR, in rising to oppose the mo 7
tion, did so without the slightest intention •of•easting any impu-
tation on the persons who composed this company, many of
whom he knew were highly respectable. The Noble.and Learn-
ed Lord then proceeded to discuss the clauses of the bill, to •
show that the Company was instituted on ,unfair pretensions.
It was proposed that this Company should lend on pledges sums
under 101. at a lower interest than the pawnbrokers. Now; as
the number of persons composing the Company might amount
to about 7,000, was. it fair that :. body so Constituted should
compete with individuals ? The result would be a monopoly,
the establishment of which could-not be for the interest of the
This Company might lend at a low interest till all
competitors were driven out of the market, and then do as they
pleased. The power of suing the clerk was no adVantage to the
public. If a judgment was got against the clerk in a civil action,
and he could not pay,was the prosecutor to proceed against all the
7,000 partners ? If a criminal action might be successful against
the clerk, those who had the option of bringing it were placed in
the difficulty of either punishing the innocent or of abstaining
from seeking any redress whatever. For the encouragement of
companies a this kind it would perhaps be thought necessary to
repeal the act of Geo. 1., called the "bobble Act;" but if that
were done, he should not much care, for he' could tell their
Lordships that there was hardly any thing in that act which
was ,not punishable by the common late. The Noble and
Learned :Lord restated the opinions he had at different tunes
tthhantcsthitet
that House, as well as in the Court of Chancery, delivered on
the joint stock companies, and concluded. by m
bill be read a third time that day three months.
• JUOrd UACRE said, that, tillable as he was to contend with
illAlegaLorgutnent of the Noble• and Learned Lord, he would
only take up the time of the House for a very few moments.—
The preamble of the bill had certainly been understood by the
Nagle Kull teamed Lord in a different iitne ou a former even-
