HOUSE OF COMMONS.

TUESDAY, Ariel', 26. ."
A-Message from the. Lords.sta fed, that they had
agreed to the Grenada Loan Bill without any amend.
mint. •

Col. LPIVgFIALD presented a .Petition. from
the Tanners of the city of Cork, complaining Of-the
mode of colletting the• tax onleather. The Hon.
Gentlethan observed that the Tanners :were. put ,to
much inconvenience by the present mode of coiled-
ing the 'tax On lenher : he therefore' Moved that the
Petition.should be received, and laid on the Table.
Mr. CORRY said, he had no objetlion to second
the:Motion. of_ his .lion.. Friend : he. was desirOus
that the su!)jed should undergo full and ample dis-
cussion, thittthe Parties might have every satisfitc.
lion on the subject, and. ;f• there were any real
grounds- of: complaint, he blinuld have no.objedion
to any amendment that could be suggested for
public advantage. He observed, that'll his Hon.
Friend should not. be present, he would himself move
that the,Petition should be referred to a Committee
above-stairs, and though the measure complained of,
originated with himself, yet he was- not so extreme.
lypartial to it as to persist in such a mode, if any
superior regulation could be adopted. He therefore
invited those whose interests were concerned, if they
thought themselves aggrieved, to petition the House,
that the matter might be fully.discuSsed.
Mr. LEIGH said, he had sent over ftir persons
to be examined before the • CoMmittee, and he un. '
derstood that the [lon. Gentleman had also sent for
ersons to attend nn the same subjcd, When
.Wtt.
nesses were heard by the Committee on the tax
complained of,' the House would be better able to
judge of the nature of the complaint, and the regu.•
lations necessary to be made.
';The Petition was then ordered. to -lie on the
Table.

Mr. LE crt unwed, that the Order of the Day
should be read 'for the House to resolve it,cll into
a CAnniittee on the Irish Courts of Law Bill, for
the purpose of putting it off.
The Order being read,
Mr. LEIGH said, that it was a. Bill o( great
'consequence, and he was desirous that it should he
fully considered. He believed the' House was of
opinion w?th him, that' the Patentee Officers who
might suffer under this 13N, coght to receive a
compensation. He therefor:: moved that the Order
be.clischarged, and that it be fixed for Monday
next, when he should propose that there be an in.
strneti..in to the Qinrimittee to receive a clause of
compensationr-The Mc.;Han was then agreed to.
M. VANSITTART'MOVCd that an account of. all
the permanent Taxes, from 401 s, 18oz, to
April s, iga3, should be laid belore the House.—
Agreed to.
Sir 110 RT, HUXTON moved, that the time allowed
by the tiouie for' an exchange of the lists of Eledort
on the late Middlesex Elenion; Should tie extended
a month longer, from the date of the day at which
the tune eXpires.
p. ./i,V.VON said, he thought there could
be no inconvenience to either Party by granting a
longer time before the exchange Of the lists took
place,

Mr. GREY-said, he could not _approve .of the
application made by the. Hon.
ogeotleman ; he
thought there had been sufficient time allowed.for
the Parties to prePare the lists for the accommoda-
tion of each other. There were more ;than, ten
Petitions for the consideration of the House, anclit
was highly necessary that no delay should take place,
•It was his wish. that no further time should be
allowed. 7 .
• Sir R. BUXTON said, the Middlesex Ele4lion
could not come on to be heard before a month after
the next Session of Parliament, and thetekbre no an
of injustice could take place to either Party, by
granting a longer time for the exchange of lists.
Sir FRANCIS BURPETT said he thought the
application a little hard, and he did not doubt but
the House would consider it unreasonable. Ten
Months have now passed away
,since', the' Middlesex
'EleCtion, therefore time enough had: surely been
given to the Parties to prepare.the lists ; he, there.
tore, hoped the House would not 'allow- a further
time than to the end of this Session.
Mr.BRAGGE said, the obje4t of the Order was,
to giant the Parties a sufficient time to prepare the
lists of Elettors for exchange ; in his opinion a
month was time enough; but if the Hou:ie Shoold
be inclined to grant a longer time, and as the con-
sideration of the Petition cannot come on till next
Session, .he shouldthinklit.right that _both Parties.
should be tied up from proceeding any farther in the
businessof the Elettion, , till its consideration takes
place,. and that all-further inquiry into the merits
of the EleCtion should subside till next SesSioN
Mr.' HURST said, that if the Idluse should
order the Consideration of the-Petition to come cm
in the first week after the commencement of the:,
next 'SesSion, ' such an artier Would Materially
jute the Parties. -

JPI To
Urn I Sala concurred in that Which the
~last Hon. Gentleman had just stated to the House.
-,,if;the'Middlesex Petition came on during the first
\yea, after the next Session,..it would be,' difficult for
•<
~rhe;-,P4ties to prepare for Parliamentary investiga.
Apti,it so short a. nonce.
_;Vr.. BR AGG E said, it was necessary that some
,ti,Me-tifter the commencement of the Session should
be allowed, before the House began to consider the
-.Petitions, in order to give the Parties time.
The Order was tlten diseharged.
On the, Motion of the SEcRICT4RY at WAR, the
House resolved itself into a COtninifteeof the whole
Rouse, on the-Militia Families' Bill.
After a rong. conversation between, several Mem.
hers on different clauses of the :Bill, :the.,blanks .were
ordered to be filled up; and on the House resuming,
the RepOrt was ordered to hehrought. up to.motrow.
Lord CAST.LRREAGII gave notice that he should
.move for leave to bring in a-Bill relative to the East
India Volunteers.

Mr. CRorruN, from .the Treasury of Ireland,
brought up several, accounts relativeto the Finance
of that Country, which were',ortleyed to lie on the
Table, and be printed for-the use of the Members.
Adjourned at six o'clock.
