Lord ERSKINE presented a Bill for the more effectually pre-
vying malicious and wanton cruelty to Animals, whichhe ob-
*sieved was the same akthe Bill which was before the House last
Session, when it was sent to the other House, with the addition
of a clause which he had framed in order to obviate an objection
made to the former Bill, that a man might be liable, at the ca-
price of a Magistrate, to all the punishments imposed by the Bill
for a mere act of sudden passion. This objection bad no founda-
tion whatever in law, but in order to prevent any obstacle to the
progress of the Bill arising from it, he had framed a clause, enact-
ing, that malicious and wanton cruelty should be expressly charged
in the indictment on information, and which must be of course
proved before the party could be convicted.
The Bill was read a first time and ordered to be printed.
Adjourned to-morrow (this day.)

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
WESTNIINSTEIt PETITION.
Lord COCHRANE presented a Petition !tom a Meeting of
the Electors of Westminster, held this day in Palace-yard.
The Petition was read by the. Clerk, of which the following
is a Copy :
TO THE HONOURABLE THE COMMONS Or THE UNITED RING.
DOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND ZELLAND IN IAIt.LIAMENT
•5511.14131. ED.
The Petition and Remonstrance of the inhabitant Householders
Electors of the City and Liberties of Westminster, assembled
in New Palace Yard, the 17th day of April, 1810, by the ap-
pointment of Awr uu it Metals, Esq. High Bailiff, in pursuance
of a Requisition for that purposes
We, the Inhabitant Householders, Electors of the City and
Liberties of Westminster, feel most sensibly the indignity offered
to this City, in the person of our beloved Representative, whose
Letter to us has fallen under the censure of your Honourable
House, but which, so far from deserving that censure, ought in
our opinion to have led your Honourable House to reconsider the
subject which he had so ably, legally,and constitutionally dscussed.
We are convinced that no one ought to be prosecutor and juror,
judge or executioner in his own cause, much less to assume, ac-
cumulate, and exercise all those offices in his own person.
We are also convinced, that the refusal of your Honourable
House to inquire into the conduct of Lord Castlereagh and Mr.
Pereeval (then two of his Majesty's Ministers), when distinctly
charged with the sale of a Seat in your Honourable House, evi-
dence of which was offered at the Bar by a Member of your Ho-
nourable House, and the avowal in your Honourable House,
" that such practices were as notorious as the sun at noon
day ;" practices, at the bare mention of which the Speaker of
your Honourable House declared, " that our ancestors would
laav, startled with indignation." And the committal of Sir
Frakcia Burdett to prison, enforced by military power, are cir-
cumstances which render evident the imperious necessity of an
immediate Reform in the Representation of the People.
We, therefore, most earnestly call upon your Honourable
House to restore to us our Representative, and according
to the Notice he has given, to take the state of rife Repre-
sentation of the People into your serious sonsideration, a
Reform in which is, in our opinion, the only means of
preserving the Country from military despotism.
Lord COCHRANE moved that it be laid on the
table.
The Honourable Mr. WARD objected to this. The
petition even in point of form was inadmissible, in as
much as it was entitled " A Petition and Remon-
strance," which he conceived to be irregular. At
any rate, the expressions in the body of the petition
were so indecorous and disrespectful, that the House
would beft/odese, if it allowed it to be laid on the table.
Mr. HALL expressed similar sentiments.
Mr. CREEVEY saw nothing disrespectful in the
allegation, that in the opinion of the Petitioners, Sir
Francis Burdett was correct in his argument upon
the point of law which he had brought before the
House. There was nothing in the petition that should
induce the House to refuse to allow it to be laid on
the table.
Mr. CURWEN thought the language of the peti-
tion highly indecent •,_ and suggested to the Noble
Lord the propriety of withdrawing it, and presenting
one of a more decorous kind, if the object really was
to promote the cause of reform. He hoped the House
would give the Noble Lord this opportunity, if he
chose to avail himself of it.
'Mr. LUSHINGTON adverted to the petition of
Mr. Horne Tooke, stating that seats were sold in that
House like stalls for cattle in a market. This petition
was received, because it related to an election, thou&
the style of it was thought highly offensive. But that
petition, it was to be observed, was net entitled 4, A
Remonstrance."
Mr. WHITBREAD wished the petition to be read
again.—lt was read again accordingly.
Mr. WHITBREAD was sorry that he must dif-
fer from the opinion of his two friends near him
(Ward and Curwen), and wished that the Chancellor
of the Exchequer had expressed his opinion, whether
or not the petition should be received ? He should
have been better pleased if the terms of the petition
had been a little more softened ' • but if the House re-
jected it, such as it was, it would do one of the most
violent things that a House of Commons had ever
done. The meeting from which it came had been
legally constituted, every thing had been conducted
in the most orderly manner, as he was informed, (for
he w., s prevented by business from being present) and
the petition was signed by the High Bailiff. The
' word" remonstrance," in the title, had been objected
to. Whether there were precedents of petitions with
the addition of that word, he did not know ; but it
was well known, that whenever a grievance was com-
plained of, a remonstrance was, in fact, made, and
the word was often used in Petitions and Addresses
to the Crown. So that it could not be said, that the
word was inconsistent with the dignity of the House.
They spoke of the indignity offered to the City of
Westminster in the person of their Representative.—
This, however, did soli necesarily refer to the con-
