SCOTCH CLIRCT SILL.

Mr. KENRICK prefentad a Petition from the
Commiffion of the General Meathly of the Church
of Scotland, praying that the Scotch Clergy Bill
pending before that Honourable Houfe, may not be
paired into a law, as luch would be, in the apprehen-
finn of the Petitioners, produltive of divers effects
injurious to the rights of the Clergy of the Churoh
of Scotland, and further praying that Petitioners
might be heard by their C:unfel at the Bar of that
Houk againft laid Bill.
Mr. W ILBERFORCE laid, he had not yet had
fulficient opportunity of acquiring the neceffary in-
formation upon the fubjeil ; but that from the little
information be had obtained, he was induced to
think that it would be more advifeable to hear coon
fel before the Houfe fhould go into a Committee on
the Bill, becaufe then Gentlemen would in that cafe
be in polfelton of the leading objeetions urged by the
petitioners againtl the bill, and perhaps it would appear
that all fuck might be fo modified in the committee,
as entirely to fatisfy all parties—an objeCt that, whe-
ther he confidered the charaCler of the learned Lord
with whom the Bill origiaated, or the great refpec-
tability of that clafs of men who had now petitioned
againft it, was with him one of no iaconfidetable im-
portance:
The SPEAKER felt it his duty to acquaint :he
Houfe, that as the bill in queflion bad been read a
fecond time, it was nut the regular ufage to hear pe-
titioners by their counfel at the bar, in any Rage fo
intermediate as that in the prefent inflance. When
the Bill was committed, it would be for the com-
mittee to ezercife its own difcretion ; but that it was
more ufual for the Houfe to bear Counfel upon the
Report being brought up.
Mr. WILBERFORCE apologized for this *min.
tentional informality, as be had not been aware that
the BiM in queltion had been read a fecond time.
Mr. ADAM begged leave to oblerve, that no
Counfel could be heard in the prefent Rage of the
bill, and that were it even not irregular, it would be
inconvenient, for that he was fatisfied that the ob-
jeetions of the Clergy of Scotland, for whom he en.
tertained a mutt unfeigned refpeti, went rather to the
apprehended modifications of the Bill, than to the
principle of the sill itfelf, for it was neither in the
nature, nor was it any part of the objet of the bill,
to take away any privilege, or to infringe upon any
right. He affured the Hon. Gentlemen and the
Houfe, that nothing was more foreign to the Minds
of thole with whom that bill originated, than any
fentiment hoßile to the true interefts of the Scotch
Clergy. The objeCt of the Bill was merely to fulpend
for a limited time, and a very limited time, certain
proceedings p:nding before the Commiflioners of
Teinds, relat:ye to the augmentation of Stipends.--
The Court of Sefflon, of which thofe Camtniffioners
were Members, would terminate its fittings on the
lath of March, and not refume them before the I sch
of May, but the time fufpenfion was not to ex-
ceed the firtt day of the fublequent Seffions—where
then, he afked, was the ground for any reafonable
complaint of delay, when the recefs was to com-
mence fo (ono, at*l that the time of fufpenfion was
to be limited by its termination r
The LORD ADVOCATE of SCOTLAND
Osould define no better tellimony to the fincerity of
! his good withes to the Church of Scotland than that of
I the Scotch Clergy therafelves. Taught, he rnight fay,

from his infancy to hold that reipettable daft of the
community in proper eftimation, he did not think
that he could be fuppofed capable of deliberately in.
trot/tieing into that Houle any tneafure that could in
the flighteft degree tend to detraCt from their privi.
leges, or to alienate theft rights ; fo far from it that
he had it in his intention to fubmit, upon a future
day, to that Houle, fame mealure for rendering theme
more fecure and permanent. He was. however, as
willing as any Gentleman in that Houfe could be, to
hear the Petitioners by their Counfcl : he was anxious
that no pofiible channel of information upon that
fubjea should be doled. The principle of the Bill
was not objeCled to, but the modifications which the
Bill &mild undergo when in the Committee. Re
was perfuaded that when the blanks were filled up
in the Committee, the Petitioners would then fee the
Bill in a clear and luminous point of view, and feel,
as he did now, how groundlefs were their apprehett.
fions. When he had the honour of fubmitting that
Bill to the Houle. he felt happy in the confeioufnes
of introducing a regulatimn that he believed would
be beneficial to the Church of Scotland ; but if it
tball-appear otherwife, if there is the leafl ground
to fulpeet that it may be produetive of any conies.
cpiences injut ious to the Scots Clergy, he fhould feel
Rill greater happinefs in immediately withdrawing if.
After ao pbfervation from Mr. KENRICK, the 4
Petition was ordered to lie nn the Table till the '
Report of the Bill; and that the Petitioners be al.
lowed to be heard by their Counfel, at the Bar, in
fuppurt of the allegations contained in laid petition.
The Scotch Clergy Bill was committed for Thud.
day next.
