Appeal of Wilkinson t'. *dame," froth the English Court of
Chaecery, against a .Deeree io which the Court had been assisted
by the lase Baron Thompson, Sir Vicary Gibbs, and Sir Simon
Lc Blanc ; and their Lordships were finally of opinion that tht
Decree of the Court of Chancery ought not to be disturbed, and'
it was therefore now affirmed, without bearing the Counsel for

conversation ought now to take placeonit.--ahe Petitloo *wal
ordered to be printed.
Mr. M. A. TAYLOR presented a Petition from an unfortu-
nate individual of the name of Gregaan, who had formerly beep

Mr. DENT A N was desirous of saying one word apron this
Petition..tle bad been requested to present a Petition in favour
of tits dill introduced by the Hon. Member for Coventry, but
his Hon. Colleague had been requested co introduce a perfectly
oppesite Petition, and he therefore hoped that the subj.::t would
receive serious consideration, that these jarrhsgepinioni n>ou:tt be
reconciled, and that hereafter these discrepancies would die 3,,g1y.
Mr. P. -MOORE was sled to know that the 11:11 which be
seas about to introduce had received the almost universal appro-
hation of the country. If it went no further lengths than to
repeal the present Combination'f.aws, it would in his mind effect
much benefit —The Petition wasorticren to !won ties table.

. Mr. MANSFIELD prevented a similar Petition froni the
Cordwainers of the borough of Leicester, which was olderecito
ile'on the table.
The same Honourable Member presented a similar Petition

Mr. C. CALVER'r moved for the revival of the
Committee on the Southwark Court of itequebts Bill.
Mr. DatrMAN and Mr. Peron Mount supported
the motion.
Mr. Alderman WOOD tbonlit the revival of the
Committee unnecessaryi particularly at this period-.
Mr. H. SUMNER saw no reason whatever for the
revival of this Committee, especially after the opinihn
of the Committee of last year, which said, that the
relit to be remedied were not sufficiently met-by the
projected measure.
Mr. HUME was of opinion tint the CoMmittet
should be revived ; the more so, as its objoet was to
bring in a Bill it 3 reduce'the lees of the-Courts upon
the recovery of small debts.
After a few words from Mr. T. WILSON and Mr.
H. G. BENNET, strangers were ordered to svithdraw,

On the re-a,imibion of strangers to the gallery,
Mr. C. CALVERT was objecting to the fees which
were now appended to the Acts regulating the reco-
very of small debts, which he proposed to remedy.
Mr. H. SUMNER only wished for delay till the
next Session, when he would lend his best assistance
to complete a measure which he knew to be neces-
sary, but which could not be accomplished by the,
pioject of the Hon, Member (Mr. Calvert).—The'
Committee were then authorised to report on ok
foie Friday sit-light.

'The Report on the Litnerick.Local Taxation um
was brought up, with several amendments.
Mr. DALY objected to the,nseasure, which was a
private Act, going to diifranohise many individuals
of their right.
Mr. PHILLIPS was of a .different opinion. and
considered the measure would rather,tend to its ex-
tension.' The people of Limerick had been long toasts
for corrupt purposes, and it was but fair that for good
purposes they should be allowed to task themselves.
Sir G. HILL objected to the propohed measure.
There were conSicting interests in Limerick which
could not be at all reconciled by it.
Mt. DALY said, that these who oppose 4
acted with candour and fairness in their opposition.
Mr. PHILLIPS—There certainly wet; delay on one
side which there was not on the other. if thAt were
candour Arid fairness the .House would ibieft4toide.
