Copy of Treasury Minute of March 18, 1836.
My Lords read his Majesty's most gracious answer to
an address of the House of Commons.
The answer is as follows :

" WILLIAM REX—I willingly assent to the prayer 0.
my faithful Commons, that I will be pleased to take such
measures as may seem to me advisable for the effectual dis-
couragement of Orange Lodges, and generally of all poli-
tical societies excluding persons of a different religious faith,
using secret signs and symboli, and acting by means of as-
sociated branches.
" It is my firm intention to discourage all such socie-
ties in my dominions, and I rely with confidence on the
fidelity of my loyal subjects to support me in this deter-
mination. •
" It has become the duty of my Lords to use every
proper means to carry into effect his Majesty's most gra-
cious message.
His Majesty has been pleased to express his reliance on
the fidelity of his loyal subjects to support him in his deter-
mination.
My Lords entertain no doubt of the result of this ap-
peal to his Majesty's subjects in general ; but they con-
sider that it has specially become the duty of all who
serve in whatever capacity under the Crown, to act in
immediate accordance with his Majesty's most gracious
intention.
They desire therefore that a communication should be made
to Vie respective boards and beads of departments under
their control, (transmitting to them a copy of this minute,)
that they should be drected, without delay, to make
it known to all persons acting in any capacity in their re-
spective departments.
My Lords further desire that they should inform their
officers that it is the express directions of this board that
every party now a member of an Orange Lodge, or any
political society excluding persons of a different religious
faith, using secret signs and symbols, and acting by means
of associated branches, should immediately withdraw from
such society, and that no person in their service shall here
after become in any way a member or connected with such
a society.
And if it shall hereafter become known to this board,
that any public servint under their control, shall, after this
warning, either continue or become a member of such so-
ciety, my Lords will feel it their duty, without hesitation,
to dismiss him from the service.
Infoim them further, that my Lords rely on their carry-
ing the intentions of his nijesty and the directions of this
board zealously and impartially into effect.

LONDON,
FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 25,,1836.

On Lord MELBOURNE proposing last night, in the
House of Lords, that the Municipal Act Amendment
Bill be passed before the first day of Term, as other-
wise "it would cause a great deal of public inconve-
nience, and give rise to much litigation," the Duke of
WELLINGTON objected to the proposal on the plea
that " many of their Lordships would be, doubtless,
anxious to compare the two measures, and if the pre-
sent Bill were hurried through the House, in the man-
ner it was proposed, they would not have the opportu-
nity." This is but a lame apology for embarrassing
Government, and affords a fair specimen of the sort
of conduct we may. expect from their Lordships, when
the Irish Corporation Bill, and other such remedial
measures, come before them for discussion.

We showed two days ago that the objection taken by
the landowners to the commutation of tithes was with-
out foundation, as far as the high price of agricultural
produce during the seven years over which the valua-
tion extends is concerned, inasmuch as the tithe being
convertible into grain, the higher the price of
grain, the smaller will be the quantity of it equiva-
lent to the tithe, and constituting the rent charge on
the land. To make the objection tenable, the land-
owners must change their ground, and shew that the
commodities in which tithe is paid have, during the
last seven years, borne a greater relative value than
those into which they are to be commuted ; for if both
have been high or both low, the landowner suffers no
wrong ; and if grain has been higher in proportion than
articles of tithe, the landowner is a gainer.

But the landowners object not only to the mode of
commutation, but also to the full amount of the tithe
being made the basis of it. It is too much, they say,
to take the gross amount of the tithe as the measure of
the rent charge. Why is it too much ? Does the
tithe owner claim any more than his due—any more
than he has hitherto actually received ? Has he ever
claimed the full tenth of the produce of the soil, to
which he has a more ancient and better title than the
landowner has to the land ? Never. But the land
may not continue to produce so much as it has done,
and the landowner therefore runs a risk of not being
remunerated ? Is there any sense in this supposition ?
Is it not saying in fact, that with an additional
inducement on-the Dart of the cultivator to improve the
land by an outlay of capital, it will be less productive
than when his industry was clogged by a constantly
increasing burden ? Let us, however allow, for argu-
ment's sake, that the landowner does run some risk—
will it not be more than covered by the proposed de-
duction of from 25 to 40 per cent. from the tithe ?
This ought, it, all conscience, to satisfy his cupidity.
How unfair, then, is it to talk of the gross amount of
the tithe being made the measure of the rent charge ?
Then, again, an exception is taken to the Bill for the
great injustice done to the diligent and enterprisin:,
cultivator, whose land is saddled with a heavy rent
charge, while the man who has wrapped up his talent
in a napkin—whose field has produced little else than
thorns and thistles—escapes with a comparatively light
punishment. The idle man will in fact eceive a benefit
