GREAT YARMOUTH.

Mr. TANCRED presented a petition from W. Parker, of
Great Yarmouth, praying for payment of his expenses before
the Yarmouth Committee. .

Dr. BOWRING then rose to move, as a public dtvy, that
ell the parties engaged in that prosecution Le paid their ex-
penses from the Treasury.
Mr. SHAW thought that as the motion proposed by tho
Hon. Member was different from that of which he had given
notice, he should not press it in so thin a House.
Dr. BOWRING said that the variance was very trifling.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER. said that
he was prepared to support the motion. The public having
derived the advantage of the inquiry were bound to pay the
expenses of the witnesses, and the Treasury were quite ready
to do that which was right ; although, at the same time, he
must observe that parties instituting such inquiries should be
told that they did so on their own risk and responsibity.
Dr. NICHOLL did net think the motion at nil necessary.
Mr. HUME supported the motion, considering that it would
be unjust to throw the expense of an inquiry which was for
the benefit of the nubile on any private individual.
Mr. BULLEIt considered that assenting to. the motion
would be establishing a bad principle.
Mr. C. PELHAII feared that azreeing to such. a motion
would only be opening the door to that which would be unfair.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER wished the
matter to be postponed in order to give him an opportunity of
looking into the subject.
After some furthar observations, Dr. BOWRING consented
to postpone the further consideration of the motion until Thurs-
day.

SUFFERERS AT DOMINICA.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave no-
tice that he should to-morrow move tint the House du resolve
it,eif into Committee for the purpose of enabhog him to bring
forward a resolution for granting a sum of money for the relief
of the sufferers by the late hurricane at Dominica.

UNSTAMPED NEWSPAPERS.
Mr. HUME said that, as the Right Hon. Gentleman the
Chancellor of the Exchequer had not in his budget announced
any intention
_to repeal the duty on Newspaper Stamps, he
felt it his duty to bring forward the motion of which he had
given notice, for leave to bring in a Bill to repeal the statute
of the Gth of George 111., c. 4, relating to newspaper stamps,
pamphlets, &e.
Mr. WAK LE Y supported the motion.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed
the motion, and said that if the revenue was to be. preserved,
he was bound to protect it. He was quite willing to discuss
the whole subject in the most frendiy spirit, but at present
he could not consent to the Hon. Gentleman's motion.
Mr. C. BULLER. said that the infractions of the law
which had taken piace proved that it was quite hopeless to
expect that it could ever be enforced. He hoped, therefore,
his Hon. Friend would persevere in expunging from the sta-
tute book an enactment which was a disgrace to it.
Mr. C. PELHAM did not think the poor could be bene-
fitted in any way by reading newspapers.
The CHANCELLOR- of the EXCHEQUO trusted
that the Hon. Member for Middlesex would not PMeye.re in
his motion, as he (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) meant
to bring in a Bill relating to the stamp duties on Friday, when
he should be prepared to enter into the subject.
Mr. HLTME said that under such circumstances ho should
withdraw his motion.
After some further conversation, in which Mr. Hawes, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Mr. C. Buller took part,
leave was given to withdraw the motion.
GREAT YARMOUTH.
Mr. PEA moved for the production of copies of the
minutes and resolutions of the Select Committee on the Great
Yarmouth bribery. He did this to show that the Committee
had acted fairly and honourably.—Agreed to.
Lord MORPETH moved for leave to bring in a Bill for
the better regulation of the police in Dublin.
Mr. Sergeant JACKSON thought that before such a Bill
was brought in,' the House should know something of its
details.
