Mr. LOCK:II/MT, pursuant t 9 his notice, moved
for leave to bring in a Bill to suspend tife,-.Att orate
thirty-sixth of the King so far as it relates to .the
voidance of Benefices held by Clergymen wilt) may
lave subsequeotlyaccepted.Coracies augmantedtrilrn
tueen Anti's Bounty. The ground on which he
rested his Motion was, that many Clergynien, , not..
aware of the Clause in that. Bill, which rendered Be-
neticevoid in case the ineurnbenta accepted augment-
ed Curet, had, by accepting such Curacies,subjeaed
theinselves, inadvertently and ignorantly, to the pe-
nalty of that At. The conequence was, that the
Patrons of the Benefices were threatening them
with new Presentations, and that they held such Be-
nefices wholly at the mercy of such Patrons. His,Bill
was not intended to alter the law or decide the
ri4lit, but merely to suspend the operation of the
Ate till next Session, in order that the Legialatnre
might have an opportunity of considering whether
Clergymen,-under such circtimstances, ought to be
14t to: boll their' benefices at the mercy of the pa-
trout, or be deprived
,at thetri altogether. The.kill
had the approbation of softie of the highest elunlae-
ters, and as it was only to.give Parliament
,an op-
portunity of considering the matter hilly next §es-
COD, he did not deem it necessary to say more upon
the subjea. He concluded by moving for leave,
&c.

The CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER would have
great doubt of the.propriety of the Bill proposed by
the Hon. Nleinber, if it was to atter the lain as it
now standS, or to divest rights already vested by law.
But as the 13111 was only to suspend the operation of
the law now in force, till the subje& might be more
tkilly considered next Session, he was:not aware of
any material objeCtion to it.—Leave was then gi'ven.
Mr; SuiainAN brought up the Bill for. the better
0 Betrulat ion of Licences for Alehouses, 46., The Bill
provides, that where Licence has been granted in a
preceding year. and afterwards refused, the cause of
tinch refusal shall be given in writing to the party,
who shall have an -appeal to the Quarter Sessions.
The Bill was read a first.time, and ordered to be
read a second time on 'Saturday next.
