London, England, 1832-02-23 00:00:00

Lord R. GROSVENOR recommended further inquiry.

Sir E. B. SUGDEN thought it better, the whole materials of
judgment being before the House, that the House should de-
cide on the question, instead of sending it to be considered by a
Select Committee. Whenever the Bill came to be discussed,
he was persuaded that the loss which it would occasion would
be much greater than the benefit.

Mr. SCHONSW AR maintained that the measure was gene.
tally unpalatable to the country, and ought not to be forced upc n
it. He was averse to sending the question to a Committee
above stairs.

Mr. LABOUCHERE, although he believed the opinion of
the country was strongly opposed to the measure, thought that
the House was bound to inquire fully into its merits, and that
it could not do so in a better way than by first sending it to be
considered by a Committee above stairs ; reserving to itself,
of course, the power snbsequently to decide on its principles
and details. . .

Mr. JAMES had no objection to allow the subject to go to
the consideration of a Select Committee, provided that Commit-
tee were fairly chosen by a ballot.
Lord HOWICK said that his constituents were strongly op-
posed to the measure. If the proposition had been that the
Bill be read a second time, he should certainly have voted
against It ; but as he thought that the consideration of the
question by a Committee above stairs would be productive of
very beneficial results, he would support that motion.

Mr. HOWARD was apprehensive that the proceeding be-
fore a Select Committee would be attended with considerable
ex pence.

Lord MORPETH observed, that his constituents were tho-
roughly opposed to the Bill. Indeed, the county of York had
already as ystem of registration, with which they were quite con-
t mted. Although he should not consider himself pledged to
support the suggestions of any Committee, he felt that consist-
ently with fairness and justice, he could not oppose the motion
for a Committee.
Mr. I,Ie'RANGH A M admitted, that hostile as he was to a
measure which, after the best consideration that he could give
It, he was satisfied would multiply tenfold the evils which it
professed to remedy, he could not refuse his consent to refer the
petitions respecting it to the consideration of a Committee. Re-
ferring to what had fallen from the Hon. Member for Preston,
he denied that country gentlemen were under the dominion of
attorneys, or of any other Learned Gentlemen.
Mr. BERNAL did not suppose that his Hon. and Learned
Friend intended that Counsel and agents should be heard before
the proposed Committee ; but wished that he would state the
course he meant to pursue.

Mr. CAMPBELL certainly did not mean to propose that
Counsel should be heard before the Committee; but he should
be very sorry to cut off any person from stating to that Com-
mittee his objections to the measure. He was persuaded that
an examination of the question before a Select Committee
would throw great light upon it, would dispel prejudice, and
would enable the House to come to a dispassionate considera-
tion of the Bill.

Mr. CAMPBELL postponed the second reading to the 16th
of April. On the question that a Select Committee be ap-
pointed to receive information concerning this Bill, the House
divided, when there appeared—
For the appointment of the Committee 85
Against it 3O
Majority —ss

The Committee was then appointed.
Mr. DIXON put the same question which he put last night,
on the subject of the quit rents paid for land in the colony of
New South Wales. . . . .

Lord HOWICK was not the Under Secretary who had the
management of that colony, and could not, therefore, give the
Hon. Member an answer to the question ; but he would endea-
vour to-morrow to inform himself on the subject.
The House then formed itself into a Committee of Supply upon
the Ordnance Estimates.

'The resolution that 6,9291. should be granted to defray the ex-
penees of the out-stationa abroad for the quarter ending the 3lst
.‘larch, 1112, having been put from the chair,
Colonel SIB fHORPE protested against the House sitting in
Committee on Estimates at so late an hour. Ile moved, as an
amendment, that 4,000/. should be granted instead of the sum
proposed.
Strangers were ordered to withdraw ; but on the gallery being
re.opened, it was understood that the original resolution was
agreed to without a division.
The other estimates having been agreed to, the House resumed.
The Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the House
adjourned at a Quarter past Two o'clock.

STEPHEN GIRARD, THE AMERICAN
BANKER.—The greater portion of the weilth bequeathed
by this eccentric individual is comprised iu the residue,
which goes to the payment of the Philadelphia taxes. The
Amei lean Papers are filled with rem irks on the clauses of
the will, and with anecdotes of the munificent testator.
THE AMBASSADRESS.—NAPOLEON used
to employ female spies ; which is a refinement in the art
of procuring intelligence. The refinement is carried one
step farther when an ambassadress, instead of an ambassa-
dor, is employed. A great Northern Court well under-
stands the benefit of this arrangement. The amha.sadress
was regularly bred to her profession, and her imperial
master needs not fear to match her against the ablest di-
plomatists of the day. Our first and best Ministers have
succumbed before her; they made soft speeches while she •
was picking their brains; all but Lord CasTLEREAGH
....the immaculate and impassible—he alone of our prime
movers had the courage to resist the approaches, of the
protocol in petticoats. CANNING fell. The Doke tri-
umphed—in a way ; when at the small door of the Pre-
mier's residence opening into St, James's-park, her carriage
made one of the string of lady claimants upon the ducal
energies—on that morning England was sure to play a
losing game. Even the venerable GEORGE himself,
whom the reports of the manoeuvres of this fair- headed
dame of the North used so much to amuse, fell a victim
to her syren arts. After an interview of several hours
with our late venerable Sovereign, the ambassadress in-
stantly despatched a courier to the land of quass. Whether
she told all that passed or not is immaterial. Lord LIVER•
roof, procured a copy of the despatch and regaled the
eyes of the Royal victim with an account of the only re-
sults of the meeting which the lady thought worth re-
cording. This person is now one of the must active and
dangerous enemies of the Reform Bill. Her position
gives her advantages which may at least embarrus—
although she must approach this KING through a different
channel from the last. Let not the uninformed reader be
deceived by tae artful composition of this lady's advertised
parties—they are parked for show ; one Whig of bulk
well mask half-a-dozen En;lish Carlists —Spectator.

AIRING THE NOBILITY.—An American
Paper, in allusion to the "airing," in the Court Circular
of the London Court Journal, laments the apparently
musty state of the English Nobility, and the consequent
necessity of their frequent exposure to atmospheric purifi-
c ttion. Another Paper adds, that it would afford the
Newspaper gentlemen a better subject for paragraphs, if
they could learn that her MAJESTY ha I also a little air.
CHARACTERISTIC ANECDOTE OF A "TRUE
BRITISH SAILOR."-It was intimated to a distinguished
personage, now at Brighton, that, as the cholera had
reached London, it might be dangerous to go thither.
The necessity for th ►t distinguished personage's visit to the
metropolis is deemed, by those who advise him, essential
to the settlement of the Reform Bill. It was thought a
fortunate coincidence to lay hold of the cholera as a pre-
text for a counter-movement, and feminine apprehension
was brought to bear upon domestic affections. We give
the answer as it has reached us :—" No ; I have promised
to be in town—and me, if it ended in a trip
to Davy's Locker, go I will." GOD bless the tongue that
spoke these words, and GOD protect the speaker from all
maladies, even beyond the ordinary duration of human
life.—News.

LORD THURLOW'S MANNERS AND PER-
SONAL APPEARANCE.-Neither among the suitors, thrt
solicitors, nor the bar of the Court of Chancery, were Lord
Tintatow's manners likely to render him very popular.
He seems to have taken a pride in carrying rudeness and
churlishness to an extreme, insomuch that he was com-
monly designated in the profession by the nick-name of the
tiger. In private life, and even in his official intercourse
with Members of the Cabinet and others, he seldom gave
himself the trouble to check the accustomed oaths, where.
with, after the rnani.er of his predecessor, Lord NORTH-
INGTON, he was in the habit of occasionally garnishing his
discourse. With this habit he had given himself of call-
ing indifferently upon GOD and the Devil to witness his
asseverations, it is to be supposed he had some difficulty in
restraining the indulgence of the propensity while sitting
in the Curt of Chancery, where indeed the potentate of
the nether regions, at least, is by many held to be, if not
in his proper person, at least in intendment and contem-
plation of law, or rather equity, as constantly present as
the KING himself in the Court of King's Bench. He
did, however, contrive to repress the inclination :
though those who watched him in his not unfrequent
moods of irritation, used to assert that the rising of the
oath to his lips, and the bard struggle to gulp it down
before it could escape their portals, were often distinctly
visible. When he was once leaving the Court at the
close of the legal season, without making any farewell
compliment to the bar, one of the juniors remarked to
his neighbour, in tones sufficiently audible to reach the
bench, " I think lie might at least have said,
Whether the Chancellor felt the justice of the rebuke for
his incivility, or whether he was pleased with the form
of the salutation suggested by the young Barrister, or
whether in fine (for it is but fairto presume such a
thing probalde) his want of politeness on the occasion
had been inadvertent, he certainly did turn round, and
repair the omission by taking a formal leave. To these
few traits of character and manner, we may add a
slight sketch of his personal appearance in Court, taken
(it does not appear at what time), by the veteran farce
writer O'KeerE. " I saw Lord T 111.711L0W in Court,
lie was thin, and seemed not well in health : he leaned
k which were spre id
wide, an
forward Ndvitbh.9hhand
iselbw
hands
clutched s on his
in other. He had
on a large three-cornered cocked hat, his voice was good,
and he spoke in the usual Judge style, easy and familiar."
