INTEREST OF MONEY IN INDIA.
The Marquis of HASTINGS rose to explain, in a
few words, the nature of the Bill which he was about
to present to their Lordships. Its object was to define
clearly the 63d clause of the 13th of George 111. rela-
tive to the limitation of interest on money lent in
India. He understood that two or three years ago a
proposition of a simnel' kind had been announced in
another place, but as it had not been carried into effect,
the task devolved upon him. From his relations with
India it was impossible that he should not be interested
in the subject. yet when he should speak of the opiniens
which individuals had expressed upon the beatings of
that chose, he hoped he should not be deeined to en-
tertain the less respect for them, because they happened
to differ from his own: The question was of .e of high
importance. It was well worth their Lordships' deep
consideration whether, on the opinion of the Law Offi-
cers of the Crown, a precedent should be established
which would overturn the practice which hit been
acted upon for half a century ? Let nb proofs be placed
on their Lordships table that o'n that single. opinion
they would,overturn the fitactice of years. The grounds
on which he opposed ft arose out of the clauseitself ;
for if it were, adopted, the operation of that claese
would extend not to the British settlements alone, but
to every parr of India. Nay;they had even had the 'extra-
vagance to render it penal to take a higher interest titan
the clause allowed, in the dominions of a foreign, inde-
pendent Prince.. Had this been the intention of the
Legislature, it would no doubt have acted consistently;
but it appeared from the clause that no provision had
been made to punish what it was wished to. render so
criminal. For it was stated that the supposed offence
should.onlyhe tried before the Supreme Court of Cal-
cutta, ani the Mayors' Courts.of Bombae,ericl Madras.
It would be impossible, therefore, to levy. a.penalty on
a great portion of those to' whom it Was alleged that
the Act applied. The Governments of India, who knew
the abuses which it was intended to remedy, had acted
on their own Construction of the clause, and shaped
their course accordingly. The, chief abuse to be checked,
it would be seen from the preamble to the Act; *eft!)e
mischievous practice of taking presents under,theplea
of taking interest. It was necessary that the cleir hear-
ing of the clause should be ascertained, and their Lord-
ships would easily see the danger of varioucopinions
prevailing upon the subjec.. He had•never heard any
Judge of the King's Courts, any Barrister, nay; age in-
dividual in India, ever call in question the rectitude of
the construction put by the Indian Government upon
the clause. But he might be told this was a negative
arguMent; he had one of. a more positive nature to
adduce. The Governor-General was authorised to issue
regulations which had the force of local laws, brut be-
fore they could be enforced they must 1:s! submitted to
the Supreme Judges. of his Majesty's Count( receive
their sanction, and he duly registered. Now in two in-
stances they had sanctioned the demand of interest to
a greater extent than their Lordships prot ably anticipa-
ted. In 1793, they sanctioned interest: from 24 to -31 per
cent..ln 1803, and the date would chew it was dcne by
different Judges, a regulation had been issued, allowing
interest at the rate of from 24 to 30 per cent.. He willed
the question to be settled by their Lordships themselves,
and should be sorry if it were done at his sole recom-
mendation. He should now present his Bill, the object
of which was to declare that the limitation of interest
did not extend to British subjects domiciliated in the
territories of a foreign Prince. After the Bill s' ould
have been read, he should :nave that the opinion of the 12 Nrires
be taken upon it, to ascertain whether it made sufficiently ecar
ought to be the bearings and effects of the clause. The Nob'e
Marquis then moved that the Bill be read a first time, and ordered
to be printed.
After this had been agreed to and carried into effect,
The. Marquis of HASTINGSthen florid that the opinion of the
twelve Judges be taken, and to give notice that he should propo.r
the second reading of the Bill on Monday next, if a printed copy of
it should then be on their Lordship? table.
