TVS LOADS' ACT.

-On the Order of the Day for the Hoare to re-
folve itfelf into a Committee on the Bill for alter-
ing and amending the Lords' Aa,
'Lord AL,AWL[Y laid, he had many objeaions
againfi this bill, which were fufficient to induce
Ina) to oppofe it. It tended at once to violate all
thole rights of real property which had for ages
been held (acted in this country. Such was the
tendernefs of tLc laws towards real property, that
the credizor could not take any part of the landed
Aare of its debtor, except the ifues and profits
arifing out of it. He could have it vefied in the
:lands of trit aces, and receive a certain income from
its but it never was conceived that he had any
rikht to &rook of the dime itfelf. The prefent
bill went to give that right to creditors: a power
unheard of before, and the mall ruinous to pro-
perty that could be imagined. It put every land-
owner, who thould happen to be in debt, in the
fifuation of a bankrupt, without giving him any
of the benefits arifing from the bankrupt laws.—
After his elate thould be difpofed of, it went to
render his future property liable to the payment of
thrills debts that (bould fill remain unfatisfied.-
13ut this was not all: by placing landed property
in this flotation, the bill went to deftroy the rights
of inheritance, and all the remainders and rever-
fionary rights which men might have in real pro-
perty : and it left that property at the mercy of
creditors, to be frittered away, and difpofed of to
a great difadvantage. After various other obfer-
vations, the Noble Lord oblerved, that it was not
his with to refill the bill altogether : but to amend
th 4 oujetlionable claufes in it ; and as that would
require a degree of deliberation, which in the pre-
(lnt advanced period of the feffion could not.be
eypeeed, he would move to put of the &ether
pose eediogs on it for three months.
The Loan Commit-Loft faith if his Noble and
Learned Friend had confined himfeif to his Lail
oVervation, and oppofed the bill (imply on the
gronnct of there not being. litfficient time, or fuf.
Went attendance to give it that dikuffion which
a bit finefs of fuels importance demanded, be would
onthave troubled the Houle with any obfervationat
p4c as his Noble Friend had given his opinion fo
direaly on the principle of the bill, he felt himfelf
coped on to make fome obfervations upon it. On
this occafion he was lorry to be obliged to differ
from his Noble Friend; for although he had no
ohjeaion to poilpone the bill, he was convinced
that its principle was founded in the firiaeft jut.
lice and morality. Could any thing be more un-
JO than that of a man's taking the property of
another, and then laying to him 44 Hen I am ;
take my perfon, put me in prifon, there I (hall live
on my date, and you cannot touch it." And
this very thing was conftantly done, while the ,
creditor was kept out of the poll ors of his pro-
pert v, and pei haps ruined: As to the right which
creditors were to have over the future property
that thould be acquired by debtors, that very
principle was recn'nized and adopted in every in-
folvent Aa puffed by Parliament, and it was per-
feDly confluent with juftice. Suppofe oae man lent
agiother 3001. and when he went to get payment,
the debtor thould tell him he hpd no mare than
s tot. to give him, and that was all he could get;
would it be conflaent with juffice that the creditor
in Poch a cafe thould ever after be barred of all
right to recover the remainder of his property ?
Certainly not. There were few lawyers who bad
more experience in bankrupt caufes than himfelf;
and from his knowledge of the fulajea he could
politively affirm, that there was no one cireum-
fiance which gave rife to more injullice and fraud,
than that part of the law by which creditors were
debarred from a right to fur this future property
of the bankrupts. It was highly injurious to the
honeß creditors, becaufe they loa fo much of their
property; and it was injurious to the bankrupts,
isccaute it only held' out a temptation to run in
debt again and commit hells frauds. So far there-
fore from objeaing to the bill on the ground of
its denying the creditors the benefit of the bank-
rupt laws, he was of opinion, that there benefits
ought not to be extended at all. A fraudulent
debtor had nothing to do but to get a certain num-
ber of his creditors to fign a certificate ; and then
hi might go, and deprive others of their property
in the Fame way, while the former creditors, cut
off perhaps with a mere trifle, had no power over
the futore property he thould acquire. He did
not with to let this bill pars without thus giving his
opinion upon it: and while he contented to its
protponerneat, he wished it to be underftood that
he was friendly to the principle of it, and that he
hod it would be brioight forward again.
• . A I •

many of thole points which he had fo ably (Wed.'
but mutt obferve, that it was not on there grounds
which he had in a great degree foftened, that he,
(Lord Alvanley) objeCted to the bill—and he
feemed to fay, that were the laws cone led with
it, 'Coffered to remain in their prefent (tate, the
bill would not be fo objeftionable.
The Earl of Cat vssoirr, after adverting to the
late period of the Seffion, and the thin attendances
which were to be expeited. as a jullifiable ground'
for poftponing the bill, took occafion to notice an
obfervation of the Learned Lord who oppofcd the
bill—naively, that if the exifting laws relative to
the points in queftion were to remain unaltered,
the bill might be proper. On thefe grounds, when
he confidered what the Noble and Learned Lords
had Rated, that they had exited for nearly a cen•
tury, he thought the fenfe of the Legiflature pretty
well expreffed : they had no reafon to fuppole that
they Ihould be altered; therefore, in that view of,
the cafe, he thought the bill might be favourably
confidered.

The queltion was then put, on which the bill
s•as ordered to be committed this daythree months.
It is confequently lo(I for the prefent
&nue private butinefs was then difpefed of, and
at a quarter pall (even the Houfe adjourned till
to-morrow.
