HOUSE OF LORDS, FRIDAY, MAY $.

Mr. Gulags was heard on the Appeal Can&
FULLARTOM V. Sir Haw DALRYI4 Fit, on behalf of
the Refpondent till pafi. five, when the further
hearing WAS adjourned to Monday next at two
o'clock.

Mr. QUAILML, Deputy Ufher of the Black Rod,
appeared-at the Bar, and informed the Honk,
that a Deputation from the Commons waited a
conference with their Lordfhips, in the Painted
Chamber :—and accordingly the following Peers
were nominated to manage the fame, on the part
o their Lordfhips, viz. Earls of Ross me and Gat-
towsv.l.ords WALSINGHAN, AUCKLAND, Dow-
nes, and the Bifitop of OXFORD.
On the return of the Deputation from the Con-
ference, the Earl of Rosstie read the Communi-
cation
which he had received from the Commons
together with certain Papers and Documents, re-
lative to a more effeetual mode for the promulga-
tion of the Statutes, which on the Motion of his
Lordfhip, were ordered to be printed.
The various Bills before the Houfe were for-
warded in their refpeCtive Stages.
Lord AUCKLAND obferved, that one of the Or-
ders was fur the third reading of Campbell's Di-
vorce Bill, which fiage he fhould objeCt to taking
place that evenittg. His Lorcithip thee adverted
generally to the very aggravated circumftances of
the cafe in quellion, which he thought beyond
any other that bad come before their Lordfhips,
and required the particular interpofition of the
Houfe—in which view. fhould their Lordfhips
agree to peilpone the Bill, he intended to move
for the introduction of a Claufe to prohibit the
Adultrefs, Mrs. Campbell, from intermarrying,
in cafe an opportunity fhould offer, with the Huf-
band of her Sifter, the perfon with whom it was
proved the frequently had an adulterous inter-
courfe, and upon whole account fhe was di-
vorced. This being a particular cafe, and of a
glaringly aggravated nature, he felt it flrongly
incumbent on him to come forward as he men-
tioned. And accordingly he moved, that the Or-
der for the third reading of the Bill be pofiponed
till Tuefday next. Which being ordered, he gave
notice, that he fhould propofe a Claufe to the
effect abovi (tared.
A great deal of private bufinefs was difpofed of,
in the courfe of which, after a Petition had been
duly received, and an attefted Copy of the Pro-
ceedings in the Ecclefiaftical Court regularly
laid before the Houfe, a Bill was brought in, and
read a fira time, to diffolve the Marriage of
George Hayes, with Chriftian his now Wife.
