dition of particular regiments, and how Cu they were
fit or not for actual service, he should certaiidy ob:
ject, and that for reasons which it was, no doubt,
unnecessary for him to explain, as it must be obvious
to every one how impolitic it would be to give such
information to the enemy. As to the general obser-
vations with which the Noble Lo d had accompanied
his motion, he should not detain their Lordships with
commenting upon them, as they.had already been re-
peatedly, and in his mind, satisfa onrily answlltid.

GAS L 112.111%. , ..,„ ~ . -
Lord SHEFFIELD, after eipatlating..at. some
length on the advantages to be derived fronnthis dis-
Covery, and from the ?tirade proposed, bysthe bill for
carrying them into effect, moped that the bin be now
read a third time.
The Earl of STANHOPE opposed the bill on ac •
count of the stupid manner in which the process for
obtaining the gas was caniesi on, and on account of
the pernicious effects which it might produce in the
district which it was employed to light,. He particu-
larly objected to the facility with which, either from
`[ chance or design, the communication between the
pipe; might be obstructed, and a whole district* that:
indclonly plunged into utter dAtkness, which. would
soon invite all the pickpockets and housebreakers a
the metropolis.
' Tie Duke of ATHOL and Lord REDESDALE-
defended the institution fromsthese objections, ;Ind
the latter proposed some alteritions in the title and
preamble of the hill.
The Marquis cf LANSDOWNE confessed that
much improvement had been mate in the process for
obtaining the gai since the experiment had hest been
made at the Lyceum. .
The LORD CHANCELLOR expressed some
apprehensions that the bill would leave an opening
for converting the Company into a monopoly.
The bill was then read a third time and passed.
SCOTCH it:DTCATURE.
Earl STANHOPE, after again severely anitnad
verting on the inconsistency and absurdity betrave 1
by the Commissioners in :heir Report respecting titt
operation of this bill, moved, that after reciting the
Report, the Commissioners be called upon to state in
writing their various and respective reasons for the
opinion they hid delivered in that Report.. . - -

House divided od hie Snotion.—Contents 6—Nota.
Contents 10—Majority against the motion 4, . -
presented

•On the mceion for the third reading of this Bill,
Lord ORF.Y rose pursuant to notice, to move the sure idzng
of the Standing Order, now usually introduced into such Sills, to
prevent the ofrending parties from intermarrying. He thought
the introduction of it i 1 the present case of peculiar bard hip, as
exposing one of the parties •opublie prostitution.
The Lord CHANCELLOR could see no a:equate reason for
his suspending the. Standing Order, and therefore should feel It
his duty to oppose the motion.
Lord LAUDERDALE warmly supported the/notion of Earl
Grey, and drew a strong' pic•Ore of the sad co:isequences whit .
must frequently attend the enforcement of such a clause.

The question was then rut on Lord Grey's motion, which was'
negatived without a division.
• THE WALCHERCN EXPEIHTION.
Lord DARNLEY rose to move fot certain papers
from which might be collected the present state and
condition of the troops which had been employed in
the Expedition to the Scheldt. He lamented that
circumstances had r vcurred to divert the attention and
i
the indignation the country from the authors of
that most disastrous and disgraceful Expedition. As
far however as depended upon him, he should endea-
vour to keep alive the recollection of such acts of cri-
minal folly, and the just resentment with which they'
should be visited. It was matter of surprise and of
sorrow to him, that the nation should relent or relax
in the manifestation of their displeasure, at the con-
duct of men who had so wantonly and so wickedly
sacrificed the most numerous, and the best appointed
army that ever bad sailed from the shores of this
country. If the Papers' he should move for be laid
on the table, their Lordships and the public would
then see what now remained of that brave and gallai.t
army; and they would turn it seriously in their mind.,
whether the men who had thus squandered away arl,
ingloriously sacrificed such a chosen band of Britisli
troops, should again have it in their power to inflict,.
a loss so severe, and shame so indelible, on the 'Bri-
tish nation. Perhaps nct a man who had been in
fected with the Walcheren fever would ever be per.
fectl7 restored to the enjoyment of health, or the
service of his country. As some of the papers he in_
