IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF PEERS.

MONDAY, DEC. 12.

Tar Marquis of Sr/aroma was sworn, and took
his seat, on his accession to that Peerage on the
demise of his father, the late Marquis; as was also
the Earl of BRISTOL, on a similar occasion.
The LORD CHANCELLOR quitted the Wool-
sack, and acquainted their Lordships he held a
Paper in his hand, shaped as a Petitton, and pur-
porting to be the Petition of Allan Macleod, now
in confinement in Newgate, under a Vote of their
Lordships' House, upon a Question of Privilege,
humbly hoping that their Lordships would take into
their consideration the length of the confinement he
had undergone, and stating, his utter inability, to
liquidate the fine which had been imposed, dec.
His Loid4hip stated (as, we could co11c8) that the,
application had been made to him on the part of
Mr. Macleod in the way of Letter, introdudtory to
the Petition, which he deemed it his ditty to pre-
sent to their -Lordships.
The Petition Was ordered to lie on the Table.
Several of the Bills before the House were. then
forwarded•in their reipeCtive stages.
On the suggeition of Lord Ga tray' c LE) who ob.
served, that probably the impending discussion of
this evening, which was on a subject confessedly of
still more importance than even that in question,
the order for the third reading of the Bank Restric.
tion Bill, which stood for this day, Was poitpooed
' till to,morrow.
On the Order relative to the Expiring Laws Bill
being read,
The Earl of SUFFOLK, who had slightly ad.
vented to the sohjeet before, on seeing the Noble
Secretary of State in his place, took the opportunity
'to request some information relative to an important
consideration which was involved in the Bill above-
t mentioned. What he alluded to was, two Annuities
which were granted for special purposes in the Reign
of Queen Ann, and which were to have expired in the
course of a few months. He wished to be informed
of the amount of the Annuities in question, and
what manner the Public would be benefited by their
falling in ?
Lord HAWK.ESBURY observed, that at present
he was not prepared to give the Noble Earl a saris-
faElory answer on the subject: however, that con.
sideration would obviously form no objection to the
progress.of the Bill, as the option. would salt, re-
main as to their future disposal.
The
,Bill then passed through its pending stages.
On the occasion of the Curates' Relief Bill be-
, ing read a second time,
The Earl of SUFFOLK again rose and stated,
that though he could not objeCt to the second read.
ing 'of the Bill, he felt it incumbent on him to
state, that the measure, in his opinion, by no
means went far enough. He had endeavoured to
obtain extensive information on the subject, anti
had received several letters on the topic ; and he
understood, that such were the situation and cir-
cumstances of several Curates, that they were ne-
cessitated to officiate under the ordinary or regular
rate of salaries. This was 'a consideration which
should operate on the minds of the Legislature. 7—
Every pradicable care ' should also be taken that
the Monies voted should be scrupulously applied to
the purposes intended : and his Lordship suggested
the
.propriety of providing some regular place or ,
office, wherein the money should be paid, and duly
distributed.
The Order of the Day being read .for the second
reading of the Irish Habeas Corpus. SuspenSion
Bill, .. ..
..
Lord HAW.KESBURY rose, and in a neat and
impressive Speech, addressed their Lordships upon
the subject. The topics in questions the Noble
Secretary of State professed to consider rather ge-
nerally, deeming a detailed view of a subject of
which so much was cm public record, and so much
,confessedly of public notoriety, unnecessary on the
prearnr occasion, After 'adverting generally to the
present situation and circumstances of Ireland; he
proceeded to observe, that the Bills before the
House (for he should in a great degree identify the
measure now regularly under discussion, with that
for the continuing of Martial Law in Ireland, as
essentially connected with .each other) were der.
thinly of a questionable nature, and went to enait
provisions which nothing short of necessity could,
justify the expedient of recurring to; this leading
principle had regulated his conduct, and that of
those with whom he had the honour Co, 41. 'With
respekt to. the, measures ih question, not only with
regard to their origin and continuance, but with
regard to their system of executing them, nothing
short of the pre'ssure of necessity could in their esti.
mation justify them in any of these considerations.
Their Lordships well. knesv, as did the Country at
large, moist of the leadinir circumstances, not only
ofahe former Rebellion in Ireland, but of the late
foul and atrocious Conspiracy, though the latter
certainly did not appear on that, .extensive and
alattning scale on which the Insurreaion of 1798
ptoceeded, still its objects 'and views were notori-
ouSly the same, and it was certainly to be regarded
as a symptom of.a spirit'ofdisiffettion and revolt to
a considerable degree extended through that part of
the United Kingdom, It was by no means the
wish of His Majesty's Government to have recourse
to coercive measures, such as the present.
,In a
late daring and atrocious Conspiracy in this
Country,„ the Moderation. of their yaws, and
their warm regard for the sacred principles of
the Constitution were unequivocally manifested.
No measures of the nature of these under considera-
tion, were proposed by His Majesty's Ministers,
inasmuch as they did nut Gumidc 1 theta justified by
