HOITSE OF LORDS, JUNE SO-
'Sr E. Ronit.i.y and Mr. ADAM were heard for the Aopellant,
id Mr. Lewes and Mr. Hoit out for the Respondent, in the
iuse of Turner and Turner."-LFurthee hearing on Friday.
The Irish Scheol Endqwntents Bill, and Irish Can Distillptipta
111, were read a second time.
The Loan Totemic Bill, Trinity Doctrine Bill, 4Pfl alms
tit brought up from the Commons.
Lord REDESDALE proposed that the Amendments made by
le Common' la tbp !twisters, Debtors Bill shoold be Caluidestd
1 Frici4, which was agreed to.
lThe LORD •CtIANCELLOR called the attention of the
logse to the gireumnance, that no provision had been made by
ie Commons for those who were to carry this Bill into execu-
on. This part of the subject had been left to them for obvious
talons; but the tact was that the Bill had come back without
iy provision of the description alluded to having been made. _
Lord LAUDERD4LE moved for an Account of the Interest
del on Exchequer Bills from 1798 to 1818, and that the account
presented -forthwith• lie had moved for and obtained an ac-
mot of the amount of Exchequer Bills issued between the pe-
als above mentioned—and the account of interest ought to
ive been produced at the same time ; but as it was net, he was
rider the nkessity of thus moving for it separately.—Ordered.
The Chancery Accountant-General's Bill was read a 2d tine.
V4CCINATION.
Lord BORINGDON rose to move the second reading of the
Iccination Bill. The subject was net exactly in the ordinary
rse of legislation but to say that the House was not compe-
, to legislate in this matter, was a libel upon its dignity, and
Janet to Its feelings. The question was of a distinct nature,
it not novel in its principle. The course was warranted by the
- history and practice of our legislation. It might perhaps
,aid, • individual had a right to do what he pleased
th his ' and property. This, however, was not the
, sod, as a proof of this, he referred to the
person who committed suicide was denied the
.an burial. A man might also build a house, but,
property, he could not set Ere to it without ren-
- -Ito the severest punishment. With the same
the laws respecting Quarantine, which were
: 45th of his present Majesty. A British
ices where the plague occasionally prevailed,
irgent business, was under the necessity of re-
some place appoin,ed for Quarantine, before
disembark. The law had likewise insother
against the spreading of infectious disorders, as
in the register of writs ;—and Lord Coke,
i upon which persons might be imprisoned,
among the number the writ de ktrwo am-
_ '. was unquestlopably an infectious disorder;
documents, from which It appeared, that owing to
-se exposure efshose who were inoculated with
all the stages of the disorder, great numbers
' the deaths in London, one out of every ten
is disease. It had been also calculated, that in
century the disease had destroyed upwards of
Ps in the United Kingdoms. Under these *cum-
•ovisionsof the present Bill would be very deserving
even though Vaccination had not been a perfect
perhaps, to some of that uncertainty that
prevailed in human affairs : but be rested the Bill
the variolous disorder was infectious, and that
a complete preservative. 'the Arse fact was
the second, he read a Report of theVacelne
rerted to the opinions of the College of Phyai-
in the capitals of the three King:oms in
statement. He then stated, that he intended
of the Bill, and to add two or three others.
that whenever a person was inoculated, notice
the Clergyman of the parish. A Noble Lord
1, that the parochial Clergy neglected their
tits, and sought the amusements of market-
hat he could not, from any experience of his
very just • but lie shoald think the Clergy very ne-
ieir duties if they should refuse to take a little trouble
a matter of so much consequence to the health and
nishioners.
CHANCELLOR wished that the Bill should be
,thdrawn and another presented, as the alterations coofesseelly
be made by the Noble Lord were more numerous than the
thole ot the rest of the Bill. As to the notice to the Clergyman
f the parish, that might be often a very difficult matter, as per-
iaps he might not be within 14 miles of the place of residence of
be person bound to give the notice. He had no doubt the Cler-
'ymen would willingly undertake any duty 'imposed upon them,
with a view so benevolent as that which the Noble Lord ewer-
ned ; but what were they to do when they got this notice t—
here was nothing on that point said in the Bill.
Lord BORINGUON agreed to withdraw the Bill, but pro-
lilted to bring it forward next Session.
I Lord EI.LENBOROUGH observed, that the whole that was
ritended to be done by this Bill for the prevention of the spread-
-4 ot infectious diseases, might be done already by the ccnntnon
fw. All those spreading, or contributing to the spreading of
ijch diseases, might be indicted and visited With very severe pu-
`ishment. This Bill rather narrowed than extended the operation
f the common law. He thought that experiment might be tried,
S he considered that Vaccination might, on the whole, do gOOd,
bough he did not think it a compkte preservative from the in-
fction ; but it was so, he believed, fur eight years, or there-
houts, and it was, perhaps, sometimes apt to intioduce disorders
ito the constitution. Upon the wboie, however, he thought it
'good thing ; and, as a preof of it, he had already vzccitiated
sht children. With regard to the provision for putting a red
ig at the tops of houses where any of the inmates had been ino-
dated with the small pox, and which might be called the orna-
tental part pf the Bill, as that bad been abandoned, he would
.y nothing farther about it : but as every thing that was intend.
iby the Bill was much better dune by the common law, he
w no occasion for it at ail.
!Lord REDESDALE positively denied having made the charge
Faint the ParoChial Clergy which had been imputed to him.
The Bill wzi then withdrawn.—Adjourned.
