Mr, BAR HAM said, he virlihr:i
attentioi; of the House with i,-speri. I
ties on Sugir, which. had been ilabi ,40
Mt. It might be asked 'why he .10
bill to go through the House without ipvl
It hit oppo,itiOtt ? Ms answer was, that
tben before the llouse contained many pro Vi.
610f14 he 1144 no Objeetion so, therProve he thought
it bttter at a future time to move far leave to bring
in a till to repeal the ohjedionable part of the
funrier on. His nhicelion was to the heavy duties
laid on Sugar ; he ah,to thought it his duty to ob.
terve, that sorne things had been said in the House
by the Right Hon. the 61ANceLt.ott of the Ex..
ciiNtigk with fzipat to the state of the West
India Trade that were not true, The Right Hun,
the CHANcEta.ott of the Excilmattta had stated,
that Sugar would bear the tax levied by the late
Bill, and dor could bear a greater tax, This was
not the cases the West India Planter already paid
ti's. in the pound, which, he considered a treat
hat&hip on them. He roold'aflirm that the Taxes
levied on them were not equal, and therefore not
fair. The moderation of Bonaparte would be equal
to the moderation which has ban strewn by this
Government to the West India Planters, The
Hon. Gentleman observed, that there 'was no way
for a Planter to withdraw his property onee ern.
barked in War India trade without a COOtitittshie
104'4, therefore he was obliged to sufS:r. any Tax
levied upon kiln.. Men born in afflueneq. had now
a dismal prospret before them. The lionolirvhie
0,1114,111;m then went into a long detail or 11. e Du'.
ties on the West India produce, and concluded by
moving, 'That the House do ,tesolvc itself into

?)1,

a Committee of the whole House on Thursday neat,
to confider of the Duties laid on Sugar, &c.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHRO.OR
observed, that this was an unusual cburse of object.
ing to a parliamentary measure adopted for the sup.
port of the Revenue, namely, that of suffering it to
pass into a Law, and afterwards to come forward
'with a Motion' for its repeal, and therefore he trusted
the House would pause before it assented to the
Motion now before it. He then proceeded to an.
swer the general arguments of the. Hon. Gentleman
Who had brought' this subjed forward. He said
that the price of Sugars had increased not less than,
res. in the hundred weight lately, and yet there'
was no diminution in the consumption. It had been
At 33, and was now 48, a 'price at which it had
been admitted by the policy of the country that
the exportation *Weld cease. This was the price
at which Sugars hatt arrived at the moment he watt
speaking ; for this day Sugars had been sold at thii
price, and this notwithstanding all the embaerass.
mente stated by the Hon. Gentleman to have been
throWn in the way of the sale of Sugar by the last
Duty on that article. , During the last Wars and a
considerable part of it, thn Duty on Sugar was
zos. now 245. the price of Sugar was not less than
ps. per hundred weight more then than at present,
ter it was then Bos. per hundredweight ; and what
was the state of the market at that period ? Was
there uny proof that the sale was diminished ? or '
that the consumption was less ? Certainly not.
Certainly it was just, to charge Foreigners with a
proportion of the burdens on tbe•consuroption of an
' article of our Colonial preilticel and it was cer.
tele that the experience of the last War did not
justify the 'complaints of some of the Planters upon
this occasion, bur, on the contrary, only contra.
difted them, for it appeared that during. the last
War,- when sugars, were greatly, higher in 'rice,
and almost double what they are now, the con-
sumption, instead of diminishing, increased, and
that too. when the necessaries of life
.were at an
higher price than they had ever been known to be,
either before or since ; and although sugar' was not
strial y, a necessary, but might, without
he di.emed a luxury of life ; under these
circumstances he thought he ryas entitled to assert,
that the additional duty of qw. acre imposed, would
not produce an tired which was not, produced on a
.former occasion. . No one.conld witilethat the con.:
turner should be indulge 4„ at the expellee of the
Planter in the West Indiea, but in asserting that
the' duty now its posed could not have the of :et of
'producing the evil complained of by the Planters, '
he was justified; for when tie price was nearly
dciuble what it is now, there was no diminution of '
the consumption of the .Article. But as to the ob.
, jetlion which had been taken to ;he mode of
posing the present duty. it had been recommended
to impose a duty ad "valorem. This matter had
been under the,consideration of many persons who
were most capable of forming an opinion upon it,
and they had tecommended the present mode under
all the circumstances. It was said that the poor
consumer pititi as high a duty in this cage for the
article he purchased as that which was paid by the
consumer of the finer article, that the. present dUtY
was as high on' sugar of the lowest •pt that of the
highest price. He admitttd this to he a thing to
be lamented. He iegretted that, in, conieeuence
of the various hands through which artic.es pass
before they,can come to the poor consumer, and the
profit derived heaven!), as well as the Very means
by which the poor were supplied, they were made
to pay a bigher price for every thing they ettrcha'e,
than the richer classes of the community he' re-
gretted' this very much, hut that evil was not pe.
culiar to sugar, it was the case with respeet to all
the articles of:life; and the effect of the Situation.
in which the poor were placed in society, and could
not perhaps, oerteinly not on the sudden, be re.
medied, arose from the neomer in which the poor'svere
may able'ro buy art icles,beieg ii, small quantities,and
tinder many other circumstances of inconvenience.
He was not an advocate for selling to the Poor at a
lower rate than to others;. but he could not help
thinking thatif we could diminish the number of
hands through which the arlice:s of life passed to
• the Poor,' it might• be a diroside ruble reduftion 'of
.the price el them.. But what wathhe effeei of this.
• duty in die Weal Indies ? It'had 'been said it would
he the ruin of them; so far, from that being the
case, the Colonial produce there was extending in
a way that was scarcely conceivable. It was stated
:situ that the Revenue would be benefited by
an ad
valorem Duty. Jr was'deiiiable that the ad evalo.
rent principle should be adopted, for most unques.
tionablY it was the most equitable 'of all prin.
ciples, yet there was no point on which there Was a
greater variety of opinions than that of the Mode in
av•ict; the Duty' should' be imposed on. Sugar, and
th,it for various reasons ; and tine very considerable
reason was on account of the difficulty of preventing
tratuis jf the Duty Was taken ad 4>aiorem. He
knew of no means of preventing that but' through
the medium of sworn Brokers, and if that system
wilt established, it could not he confined:to,Lon.
dun, it Intist be adopted alt over the. Country. This
was a .übjed which he had considered over and
over again, and lie thought that at a future period
it may •he well worthy the attention of Parliament;
nor would there be any want of disposition on 'the
part of Government to adopt that principle, if that
could be dune. Now having made these few ob.
nervations, he would ask, whether the Honourable
Gentleman 'himself would exped, under the present
circumstances by which this Country is surrounded,
the, House could go into this inquiry, and that when
he must know that if entered upon, the House could
not, go through it this Session, even if it devoted
the whole 'of its attention to it. He thought that
the Hon. Gentleman had rather brought It forward
with a view to open, as it were, a discuseiote.
the next Seisiun of Parliainene. therefore, under
a conviction that the Hon. Gentleman had not made
out a case of hardship: on the Planters, as he had:
stated, and thinking it impossible to pursue this
ineiiiry with, effeft this Session, he saw 'no
utility
in proceeding any further in this Matter now, and
therefore he should move, that the other Orders of
the_Daybe now read.

Sir tr. PULTENLY said, it was impartible to
maintain the justice of the present !rapist upon
Sugar, because it laid as much Dilly on the artiste
in one case as, another, although' is one the value of

the. article was double that of the other. That was
upon the face of things unjust ; no talents could
maintain the justice of it ; the thing was impossible,
and therefore the only thing that could be dwelt
upon in support of the present measure was. that of
the difficulty of imposing a Duty ad valorem. With
respeet to the variety of opinions entertained on the
subjea, that ought to be no argument to the CHAN.
C Lima of the EXCHRQU ;he ought to form his
own, opinion as well as he was able, and then to
pursue it to the utmost of his ability ; fur if he
*waited until all men agreed in opinion upon any
sttlijea, he would never atilt all, nor did he see
anr difficulty in having sworn Brokers to give the
-price of Shgars, in order to impose an ad valorem
Duty.
, After some further observations from Mr. LANcmsAD,
Mr. MANNINa who disclaimed making use of the influence
imputed to him by the Hon. Baronet (Sir W.' PIeLTINZY),
Sir W. Puvrtivsv In explanation, the Cu iNcs LLoa of the
EXCRLQUIR, Mr. VANS ITTAItT, Mr. GlLis,Mr. CORBY,
and Mr. BAaHAst in reply, the latter agreed to withdraw his
Motion.

The House resolved itself into a Committee, to consider of
the Relief to he granted to Curates who 'might lose their
Cures by the Residence of Incumbents, undetthe Clergy
Residence Bill,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said. he was
not disposed to believe that any opposition would be made
to the proposition he was about to submit to the. Committee,
for the relief of those Curates who might lose their Cures by
the operatiotiof the Clergy Residence Bill.'At the same time
there were several of that Body Who could nut properly be ob-
jeds of the liberality of Parliament ; he referred in this WA»
sure only to those who would be reduced to real distress by
the loss of their Cures. He had made the best inquiries,
and he found that a sum as moderate as 8.0001. • would he
sufficient for the relief of that distress, which ,he was con-
viewed would not be denied, as he was satisfied that the Com-
mittee were desirouS that the Clerical Charader should not
be degraded. He did not carry his ideas with respe&
to a general System of Relief for the whole Body of
the Clergy as some had done, as he thought it ought
not to he the policy to admit the means of persons entering
upon the exercise of the 'Clerical funaions, unless they
were possessed of something besides what they were to derive
from those tunelions. He rather thought that something
should be done on the principle of Queen Ann's Bounty; for
the augmentation of the smaler Livings, and he regretted
that some measure Of this kind hail not yet been brought
terward; he hoped however it would be a subject of „early'
consideration next Session. He concluded by moving fora
' Grant of 8,0001. for the relief of Curates in the situation
above alluded to, observing that the apportionment of it
might be left to the discretion of the Bishops in theirdiffirent
Dioceses,' with some limitation however, perhaps'restriaing
it in each case to three-fourths, or two-thirds of the income
.previously enjoyed.
Atter a few observations from Mr. HAW Tres Bitowtia

THE Bill for Arming: the Nation was yesterday
passed in the House of Lords,• and 'the Commons
afterwards agreed to snore 'Amendments which the
Upplto House had made in it, and it will this day
41,ite the Royal Aslant by COmmission.' Not a
moment, we are satisfied, *Will be lost in carrying it
into execution.

Ministers have wisely adopted the suggeitions of
Col. CRAUFORD in the 11,..u5t of Commons, so ably
supported by Mr. Ptrr, and aline of Field Fortifica.
;ions will be drawn round London,in case of necessity,
which will render 'it secure from every hosti!e'vat.
tempt. This Plan was formed during the, lastWari
under that able and experienced Oificer,Sir DAV 1 D
DUNIiAS. Such preparations will be made as will
enable, the population of the Capital and the adja.,
cent Distrlets to, throw up these,Linesln a very
allot period. We have no right -to'. despise or
neeett any precaution'that can add to our means of
Defence—Let us persevere in the spirit and adivity
that now happily pervade the Country, and. Vidory
is ensured to us.

ca BBANQUET was called to the Chair, and
addressed the Meeting in a most animated and
?patriotic Speech. A DECLARATION was proposed,
and adopted by acclamation, declaratory of the
Sentiments of the Meeting, which cannot fail
to be read by the whole Country with appro.
bation, and which is calculated to produce the
most salutary and inspiriting effeds. While it
will feed the glorious Rime of enthusiasm that
:now pervades%the whole Empire, it will convince
the Corsican. Despot that the Charader of a Bri.
tiah Trader is of a different nature from what

he would represent it. It will show him, that
at the same time that. British Merchants are em,
ployed in the honourable pursuits of Commerce,
they m
cherish a Patriotis, and possess a Military
Spirit, which Freemen only can feel. A detailed

account of the Meeting, and the Declaration adopt-
ed by it, will be found in other parts of our Papa..
