HOUSE 'OF PEERS,

FRIDAY, MAY 21.

Counss EL were heard relative to the Scotch Appeat—John
Morrhland, Esq. Advocate, and bourn Johnstone, Printer, in
'Edinburgh, v." John Catlett, Eal. one of His Majesty's
Justices of the Peace for, and a Deputy
,Lieutenant of, the
County of fladdington,— Namely, Mr. DAM at considerable
length as leading Counsel for the Appellants ; 'after vOlikly
their" Lordships deferred' the further hearing till Tuesday
next.

The Militia Regulation Bill was brought up from the
commons by theSicR.sTARY W Alt Lottery and the-
E leCtion Commissioners Bill were presented by Mr. AsEx-
4xotii.
On the kfotion or Lord, WALSTNCHKK, ',the Militia Bill
was ordered to be printed for the use of their Lordships.
A number of Private Bills were brought up. from the
Commons by the Marquis of WORCES,TEit, Mr. LEFEVAE,
Mr. LASCELLES, and other Gentlemen.

On the question Iving put for the House to re-
solve itself into a Committee on the Manure Sale
Bill,

Lord HOLLAND rose, not, he said, to-oppose
the Bill altogether, but to state his reasons why
the farther progress of the Bill, should he post_ ,
poned. He expressed his disapprobation of the
oradice, too prevalent of late, of recurring to the
Legislature on occasions not of sufficient importance
to engage its attention, or on subjefts of such a na-
ture, as that Members of Parliament in general could
not be supposed to be- sufficiently conversant with.
The Bill in question was expressly liable to both
these objections ;it would appear as if even-the very
dunghills were raked for matter 'to .legislate upon.
It was certainly below the dignity, and as cer-
vainly not in the province of ,the Legisiatitre Of
the. country to descend to 'the consideration of such
low ,and trivial subjetls. Another consideration
--,was, that the subject of the present Bill was. em-
.phatically of that nature-in which the country could
not well imagine that the Members of the'othet
FlOose of Parliament, and;still less that the Niels,-
beri of that Hoiuse, could be adequately informed.
Indeed it was no disparagement to then that they
were not ;: for no one could susped,. that the noble
natures ct their Lordships, or their general Jiabits-
or pursuits, Would lead. theert.,.tp,.analyse the. con.:
tents ofra dung-eact ; fo2ersuch, was the
subjeft-matter of die present- Bit- He `lamentedthat Bills Of a trifling and'unimpo.rtant nature had
of late so far" multiplied, as, it might be said they
were sent up
_to that House by the Winchester
bushel. On the contrary, he would rather see the
'number of statutes decreased ;- -there were .ntees-
-sarity many obsolete and inefficient
.ones upor the
book, and 'those tended to check, instead of in-
vigorating the dperation of thoSe which were ne:*
cessary and efficient. .With respect to these kind of
regulations, the Legislature should pot adopt a
measure without being previously informed of the
nature of the sever-al fads, and the necessary faits
conneacd with them, or very serious consequences
may ensue. Of this they had a Very: striking in_
stance, about two Sessions back, when Parliament:
haitily adopted some legislative provisidn with re_
spelt to a very important subjed, on which, as the
event sheaved, they were not sufficiently informed.'
He alluded to the occasion on which the Legislature
Were under the necessity of retracing their steps,
-in order to prevent the pc.plc from being poisoned,
-and proceeded to repeal the Bill without waiting to
go through the ordinary forms of Parliament. With
resped-to the par,ticular ease before the House, he-
did ndt, as far as his information went, see the
-least necessity for a legislative provision on the
subjed. ,Our Code of Laws were surely not- so
deficient'as not to afford an adequate cure for the evil,
which: the Bill professed 'to remedy, which was
merely to suppress the pradiCe' of selling a com-
modity, as that, which it was not. There were, he
-was confident, remedies to be found for this evil in
the multitude of legislative reaulationi which al_
ready existed. Powever, in the present instance,
to give their Lordihips an opportunity of,gaining
intbrmation on the subjed,' which would enable them
.to -judge of the necessity of such a measure, he
would propose, "That the Committee on the Bill ,
be postponed till Monday neXt." •

`These observations seeming to meet the sense of
the House, the question was put, and the commit-
ment ois the Bill ordered to 'be postponed acc9rd-
ingly.
Some private business'was then dispose& of, after
ivhich their Lordships adjourned till Monday.

HOUSE OF COMMONS,

FRIDAY, MAY 21.

THE SPEAKER 'informed the House that he had
received a letter from the Right Hon. Lord' HUT.
C HINSON, dated' at Turin, of May Bth, iBoz, ex-
pressive of-his satisfaaioh at -receiving the Thanks
of- the House.

The SPEAKEK also inforMed the- House, that he
had transmitted to the Colonels, of- Militia, the
Lord Lieutenants of Counties, andlhe Lord Lieu-
tenant of Ireland, the Thanks of the House to the
Militia and Volunteer Corps;-anti 'had rczciyvt-i-4-.
most of them letters in return.
A Petition was -presented from the Directors of
the Sun Fire Office, against the Kent Insurance Bill,
whiCh was ordered to lie on the Table till the
second reading of that Bill. _ _ _

Mr. SfIAwLEFEVRE moved that the Bill, should
be read a second time on Tuesday next, en which
a conversation took place between Mr. W. DUN-
DAS', Mr. SHAW LEEEVaE, Sir EDW. KNATCH-
BULL, w4lO wished the Bill to he then read a
second-time, Sir W. GEARY, and Mr. AVIGL EY,
and a division ensued. '

For the Motion z6—against it 20.
The Lottery Bill was read a third Cunt and
passed: •
TRIsH LINEN MANUFACTURE,

The Hotise having", on the Motion of Mr. Fos..
TER, resolved itself into a' ommittee on the Irish
Linen Bill,

Mr: WICKIMiII observed, that as the Law
now stood, the Coll.e4or at each Port summonca
Jury. t)1 three competent persons to. examine
Flax Seed imported, in consequence ,of which ex-
aminatiO;) he branded it either as good or 1).4.7--
The .Linen Board having found 'thi3 mode a. ex-
amination imperfeft, proposed as a remedy to ap_
Point 4n. qflicer of their own in each yort, with

.tower to clamine And decide upon the quality of all
Flax Seed imported: 1-k was of opinion. that the
power of examining and deciding upon the quality
of the Flax Seed imported, . should not be given
wholly to the' Jnspecior appointed by the Linen
Board, but at the same time that. the Collelor
should not brand any Flax Seed until the 'same
should be certified .to him by .the,Oficer. apPiiitAcch
by that Board. He coniluded bf proposing an
Amendment to this effect.

Mr. 'FOSTER observed, that this was a theakire
•olconsiderable importance, as the maintenance Of a
great number of families in Ireland depended upon
the importation of good Flax. Seed.. 'He wished that
the InspeCtors, appointed by the Lihen Board,- should
he responsible to that Board for the goodness
of the seed importee 'The kight Hon. Gentleman
(Mr. Vv*ICKHAM), had proposed' that the Inspector
should examine it, but that the Colledor should
brand it. The brand was a test of the goodness of
the seed : if the Right Hon. Gentleman thought the
Collector should brand it, and receive a fee, be'
(Mr. FOSTER) had no objeCtion, but let the In-
speCtor brand it also.

Mr. BERESFORD defended the Collators from
atly imputation of negle& of duty. Several articles,
he said, might be smuggled concealed amongst
Flax,Seed, and it was important that the Colleaors
should examine it for the purpose of discovering
those articles, if any such there were.
Mi. FOSTER observed, that the power would
still remain to the Collators to search for smuggled
goods, whether this Bill passed or not.
. Mr. BER. ESFORD and Mr. FOSTER explained.

Lord CASTLEREAGH said, that the Amend.
ment, with a little alteration, might be made to
meet the ideas of both parties. The Linen Board, in
order to prevent bad Flax Seed fror* being imported,
had thought it a proper measure to have Inspedors
but.it would be going too tar to say, that the King's
Officers should not also inspect : he thought that
the'lnspedor, and'Colledor would be checks on each
other, and that the, duty would be better done. A
very simple alteration was required, which was,
that each should brand the Flax Seed, and then there
would. be a double security for. its goodness this,
alteration would, he thought, answer the objett 'of
both parties. , •

M. U"/O, 41170rprofessed hiniself perfally sa.
.tisfied witivthe Amenilment proposed by the Noble'
.
Lord., Every attention had been shewn.bY Gov ern_'
merit to the Linen Board ; all that was desirect by
that body was, "that the-Flax Seed ihoUld.not pass
into the Country without a Certificate from the In.-,
apalor that it was sound : perhaps the •Amendment
of the Noble Lord might better answer that purpose.
• Mr. ALEXANDER thought it essential: that
the Collator should aft with. the Inspeftor.'
• 'Mr. STEIf'ART thought it Highly probable that
the Amendment proposed by the Noble Lord would
answer both- -purposes. •
Mr. CORRY said, that when this ,s4left.was
before under consideration, lie bad stated ihe.ob-
-servations. that occurred to him, which, he now:
begged leave to recall to the attention of the:Com. -
mittee, in order to spew that the vote heishould
. •
`give was perfectly conSistent., with f;iinCiples he .
had before Maintained.. lie then stated; that there
was teason to believe that the duty which was to
be performed by the Collectors had been in some•
cases negligently pertoritica. 1.. ..y,ing this, lie
could not be supposed to make any charge against
the Coliedors personally ;- but though he 'acquitted
them of any aft of Commission, yet 'lle still thought
that in some cases 'there was an .Omission of their
duty, in not sufficiently.attending. to 'the' mode of
the examination of the Flax Seed.
,•F:le,therefore
thought, that some arrangement was necessary., He
wished to express his willingness to accede to. the
.principles of the-Linen Board, which was to call in,
the Inspeflors of that Board in aid of the Collators.
He had reserved himself on that occasion upon, two
points; the first was with regard to the Patronage
of the Crown,- the other related.to.the. Tax. to be
laid upon the Public, in order to 'form a compen.
sation to the Collators, who were to continue to be •
paid, although . they were to be absolved from the
performance of the duty. By the mode now pro-
posed; the Patronage of the Crown remained entire ;
by the, present mode no Tax was to be laid upon
•the. Public; in' order to furnish a compensation,fOr
persons'who werthot to perform the duty. These
points being 'settled, he felt himself at liberty to
concur in the arrangement proposed for continuing
the Collators with the aid of the Inspectors of the"
Linen Board. Being thus at liberty, according to
the principles he had before advanced (and which by
no means went the length that had been insinuated,
of throwing blame upon the Collators), he should
accede' o the plan now proposed. With regard to the
Amendment, he understood it to be, that the Inspec-
tor should put a stamp upon the Cask, whereas by
the Amendment of his Right Hon.-Friend (Mr.
WicxxAk), the. InspeCtor was to give a Certificate
to the Collator, upon which he was to brand the
Cask. What was, ,the difference between the two
plans ?--In substance none : by the first amendment,
the branding deaeritted upoh the Certificate of the
Inspector, the -Utillettor being only a Ministerial
Officer. In the 'present case, the InspeCtor, instead
Of a Certificate, which is to be filed in the Custom.
House, was to affix a Otai-k with a hot iron upon the
cask. These. regulations were in effect the same,
but if the plan now proposed, of branding instead
of certifying by the 'lnspector, was more generally
agreed on, he was willing to,concur in it, and the
more so, as'it was perfectly conformable to the opi-
nion of the Committee above stairs.

Lord CASTLEREAGH contended, that the
Brand was superior .to a Certificate, and was a
better proteetion against the probability of un-
soundness in the seed.

Mr., cO4RY said, tl)e Certificate must specify
the marl: •and number of the Pa&age; and he<
thought it woul4 he equally efficacious as a Brand:
,Mr.
.said, he had heard nothing to
convince him'ithat ..the Bill in its original state
might not have answered every purpose that .was
wanted. •

After a fevv words from Mr. Ottrdsiir,-
Mr. FOSTER suggested the propriety of report.:
