CLAIMS OF THE'BRITISH LEGION. •
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY wished to ask
the Noble Viscount opposite if there were any hopes
that the negociations on the subject of the claims of the
British Legion would be brought to a satisfactory and
speedy termination. If the Noble Viscount could hold
out to him such an expectation, he would pus pone the
motion of which he had given notice of an address to her
Majesty on the subject for Thursday next.
Lord MELBOURNE said that the negociations
were still going on, and he trusted they would be
brought to a satisfactory conclusion.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY then said that
he would postpone his motion from Thursday next till
a later period.

tension.

CHURCH INTRUSION (SCOTLAND).
The lltoquis of BREA DALBANE presented peti-
tions from various places in Scotland against the intrusion
of Ministers in the Stottish Church. The Noble Ma. qtts
proceeded to say that the I xeltetnent prevailing on that
iuoject in Scotland was already so strong, as not to re
wore that anything should be surd or (tone in the
House or els-where, a hich could tend to aggravate
:be feelings of the people of Soot.and. He should
say that if that people, atiached as they were
to all the principles of their Presbyterian Church, con-
sidered that by the decision of the Civil Judx.itore 01
he country their rights had been ii.fringed on, the)
would only conscientiously dischary their dut) in en&a-
vouring to obtain an alteration of the law. Tue pastor,
of that Church would, in his opinion, have deserted
their obligations, and wial not fulfil their duties, if they
did not endeavour to maintatn the Ecclesiastical
Juras-
.ticto of their Church wh4, they thought it had beet.
assailed.

Tne Marquis of ABERDEEN was at a loss to un-
derstand what was the meaning of the Noble Mar-
quis in the observations be had offered to the House.
The No'ale Marquis had said that the people of &cro-
wn(' had a right to cad fur an alteration of the law
vhich they complained of. Undoubtedly they had.
—(Cries " Hear, hear.") But when the Noble
Marquis had said that they were justified in co r planting
of an entrenchment on their rights, and a violation of
them, he (the Marquis of Brea!laibane) should say
that no such violation had taken place. The law ut
the land had been justly and equitably pronounced,
mid the petition of Scotland could ocir. lawfully resist it.
The hundreds of petitiJns which hal been presented
against Crtureh intrusion, left it to the wisdom of Par-
liament to devise the means of effecting their objects
I, my Lords (continued the Noble Earl), profess myself
as favourable to Nen- Intrusion as any of those petitioners,
hut then it is the Non•lntsusion sanctioned by the law
and supported by the constitution of the Church, and
eive me leave to say, that while the Church of Scot-
land is receiving the support of the State she must obey
the law—as a Church of Christ she may exist without
the law, but as a national Church, and maintained by
the law, she must obey the law.--(Hear, hear.) The
Noble Earl concluded by saying that he deterred any
further discussion on the subject till the whole proceed-
ings of the General Assembly were before them.
The Earl of CAM PERDOWN said he entirely
(I.ffered trout the Noble Marquis who had presented
these pAitions, and he must express his strong con.
victi,n that the Church of Scotland was at present in
direct opposition to the decree of the Courts of
law to which she herself had appealed, and that
no body of men in this empire ought to be
allowed to bid defiance to the judicial authorities ; and
he must also express his conviction—attached as he
was to the Church of Satatland—:ho course she was
now pursuing was calculated more than anything else to
advance the v ews of those who were for a separation
of Church and State, a consummation which he most
earnestly deprecated. The Bill of the Noble Earl was
mainly but a confirmation of the old law, and he deeply
regretted the position in which the Assembly, opposior
that law, had placed themselves.
Lord BRE ADAL BANE said the General Assembly
could not justly be designated as rebels.
Lord BROUGHAM said he quite felt the impro-
priety of continuing a conversation of this nature, but he
rose to remark upon a word which had laden from his
Noble Friend who liad.tust sat do en. He had not uppity('
the term " rebel" to the Cnurch of Scotland, and in the
present excited state of that minority, for minority ht
believed them who were in opposition to the law ; ha
could not dhow it to go forth that he had used such a
term, and he must add that it was by no means true
that the majority of the Church was opposed to the
law-4 was only_the majority of the Asseinbly.—(Hear

SULPiIUit TRADE.
Lord LYNDHURST rose to call the a.tention of
their Lordships to a subject of considerable import•
atm., Titeir Lordships had no doubt read the paper-
which had been laid upon the table regardii.g
Sulphur Monopoly in SAnly, and their Lordships wer.
perhaps surprised to fins up mention of a copy of the
treaty which had been negotiated at the close of the
last year by Mr. Macgregor with the Sicilian Gocern•
meat, and that no copies had been furnished of the cor-
tespondence between that gentlentin and the Secretary of
State fur Foreign Affairs. At the time the Noble
Viscount proposed to lay these papers on the table of
the House, he stated that he should produce among
them the copy of the treaty ; but he afterwards states,
that he would not produce it, Lut he dit: ma assign an
reason for that change in.

iluhad thought it 1.13 duty to bring the questio
beforersl)

might have an opportunt.ty of stattngto their Lordships the
teasons for his change of deter min awn, and the grounds
in which he refused the product,on of the papers in

110 USE OF COMMONS.

The SPEAEEtttook the Chair at the usual hour.
Mr. Aiderman THOMSON brought up the Report
of the Committee on the New Zealand Bill.
Mr. LA BOUC HERE would not oppose the Bill
in its present stage, but he would reserve to himself
the perteet right to do so on a future occasion, it he
thought the public hovers required it.
Mr. DIVE I 'l' moved the third reading of the Exeter
Port Dues B 11.

Mr. LABOUCHERE moved the omission of
the 3isth clause, which exempted all.v, ssels belonging to
freemen of Exeter from dues in that port. It was not
a new principle, but was one often acted upon by the
Board of Trade before—they were anxious to do away
Kith such exclusive pri% ileges as far as possible, and took
advantage of any parties appl3ing to Parliament tor
further powers. Be considered it his duty to do so,
bolding the office he was entrusted with. He thought
tb 131,1 a very proper one;but be trusted the House
would arty to his isaottvn,'

Sir W. FOLLETT felt satisfied that when the
House was in possession of the facts of the case
they would not assent to the proposition of the Right
Hon. Gentleman. The Town. Council of Exeter were
entitled, by immemorial usage and prescription, to levy
certain duties on all goods imported into the port of
Exeter. The origin of that custom was so remote that
it could not be traced. The freemen were the only par-
ties excepted from these duties, and that was the case
not only in Exeter, but in other corporate towns.
When the Municipal Bill wai before the House of
Co moss, the rights and privileges of the freemen
came under discussion, and it was decided that they
should not be deprived of those rights which they
enjoyed by prescription. That principle was
sanctioned also by the other House of Parlia-
ment. He complained under these circumstances
of the attempt that was now made to deprive the
freemen of these privileges, and he hop d
the House would not sanction the proposition of the
Right Hon. Gent. The main object of the Bill was
not the importation of any new duties, but the re-ad-
justment of those which the Corporation was already
entitled to levy. He should, therefore, oppose the
amendment of the Right Hon. Gent

Mr. DI VETT supported the Bill in its present shape.
Mr. LABOUCHERE slid, so far from these ex-
ceptions being of no injury to the commercial interest,
there was no more fertile source of con plaint among
them He felt it his duty to give the clause every op
position in his power.
Toe House then divided, when the numbers were—
For the Bill
For toe amendment
M..jority
The Bill w.ts then real a third time and piks.hl.
Mr. G. PALMER brought up the Report on Mr.
Austin's Rit,nts.

Mr. T. DUNCOMBE p•esented a petition from
Mr Austin complaining of the m toner izi which the

The motion was agreed to.
On the motion of Mr. LOWTHER, the York Im-
provement Bill was re6d a third time.

to the mast cruel and unjustifi able privat;ons, and pray.
ing that the House would institute an inquiry into the
case. and afford redress.

Mr. BYNG presented a petition from the Wh'te-
chapel Board of Guardians agoinst certain clau:ts in

Finsbury, and other places, against Cnurch.roies and

s'one Railway Bill (with Amendments) was agrevi to.
EDINBURGH AND GLASGOW RAILWAY,

of the Report of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railw.ty
Bill was then read and certain amendments were agreed to.

NON-INTRUSION.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL presented a peti•
tion from Esiinburgh, which was agreed to at a large
public meeting held in that city on the subject of
what was called Lord Ab .rdeen's Bill, relating
to the disputes at present subs sting between the Civil
and Ecclesiastical Courts in Scotland. The petitioners
stated it to be their opinion that the proposed Btd was
calculated to aggravate the evils it professed to remedy,
that it would violate the consciences of many individuals,
and would end by subverting the establishment, and
praying the House not to consent to its passing into a law.
Sir F. POLLOCK presented a petition from Hunt-
indon against any public support to the College of
Maynooth..

CANADA CLERGY RESERVES BILL.
Mr. PAKINGTON said he observed w►th great
surprise that the second reading of this Bill, brought ►n
last night, was fixed for Thursday. Ho was sorry that
the Noble Lord, the Secretary for the Colonies, was
not in his place ; but perhaps some Member of the Go-
vernment would be able to inform him whetl►er the Bill
would actually co.ne on so soon.
Sir JA NI BS GRAHAM exclaimed—lmpossib!e!
Mr. FOX M AULE said it was only fixed for
Thursday in a hurry, but there was no intention of
oringing ►t on ►hen.
CHURCH EXTENSION.

Mr. HAWES begge•l to ask the Hun. Baronet the
Member for the University of Oxford, whether the ru-
mour was correct that he intended •to propose
to the House a grant for Church Extrusion of no less
tnan eight millions, being no less than an annual charge
of 40,0001. ta,;on the nation.--(Laughter from tha Op-
position.)
Sir ROBERT INGLIS said he hod expressed no
such intention, and although he had hrard it was
placarded about the town in his name, be had
oo such iiiteniiiin.—(Hear, heir.)
Mr. BAINES begged to ask the Hon. Baronet if
the terms of his motion would be the same as those of
nis former mot on

S►r K. INGLIS slid hi could sate the exact terms
of his ►notion as, a period nearer that when he should
bring it on.

MR. FEARGUS O'CONNOR.
Mr. THOMAS DUNCOMBE begged to ask
the Under-Secretary of State for the Home De-
partinent, whether any report had been received from

Mr. Feargus O'Connor, in York Castle.
Mr. FOX MAULE said he had receaved such a

taken phee in Mr. O'Connor's treatment.
Mr. DUNCOMBE—Does that extend to his diet ?
Mr. FOX MAU LE—Y, s.
Mr. AGLION BY asked if; along with the rogula-
'ions of the Visiting Magistrites, there would be laid
u: fore the House an exact e.etaii of Mr. F. O'Connor's
present treatment, which he understood to be precisely
he same as before.—( Hear, hear.)
Mr. Seigiquit TAU OU RD said he had r:ceived n
letter trout Mr. O'Connor, stating that he was treated
xactly in the same mariner asbefore.
Mr. FOX MAULE was understood to reply, that
precise information would be given on the tu hj, ct.
Mr. SHAW—As the Hon. Under Secretary is the
only representative of the Government present, perhaps
he can inform the House when it is probable that the
Irish Registration Bill will be further proceeded in.
Air. F. MAULE was Dot üble to answer the
question.

EMIGRATION.
Mr. S. O'BRIEN then rose to move—" That i;
was
.not a question of an attractive nature, but it
was one of very great importance to a nation like Great
Britain, who possessed such vast colonios. He there
fore trusted that he would be favoured with the atten-
tion of the House, not on his own account, but on ac-
count of the intrinsic importance of the question itself.
He considered that the House could not occupy its time
better than in considering whether it was in their power
to afford

In comparing: the trade of
that country with Russia
and their own colonies, he found that in 1830, the ex-
ports to Rtisbia from Great Britain and Ireland amounts
to 1,633,143 E, the amount of the papulstion of Russia
being 180-009,000. The amount of the exports to the
Australian "4olonies in the same year was -1 336.000
while "-the popylathm uki not exceed 110,000,

He only adverted to that one point for the purpose of
showing the improv,.ment that was daily taking place
in their colonies, and he believed that in proportiot' as
they wand be able to renmdy the.distrdii ttiltich existed
at home by Means of ettonit ttion would they promote
flit Fetnrlty, peace, and contentment of the people.
—(Cries of " Hear, hear, hear.") He would now
come to the two positions laid down in his resolutions—
first, he contended that there frequently existed in that
country sufferings among the poorer classes, or, in ether
words, there was an excessive ',theft as Conip:Vced with
the demand, There Might not be, as regarded Eng-
land, a great redundancy of the population generally,
but in particular districts and and seasons and kind of
employment there was an excess. For example, he
would refer to the cast; of the band-loom weavers, whose
destitution had already attracted so much public attention,
Upon the whole ho thought they were compelled to infer
that there must be a great amount of suffering in the
English population, when they found that in 1838,
after all the reductions that had taken piacc, in conse-
quence of the labours of the Poor-law Commi,-
sioners, the whole amount of the poor•rates last year
Amounted to no less a sum than 4,725,5661. He-was

there could be no doubt of the truth of the proposition

which were accepted in the market towards the close of

the brutal conduct lately exhibited towards Mr. Actand at
Woodbridge and Saxmundham has had precisely the contrary
