QUAKER.
Earl STANHOPE presented a Petition on, he
said, a most important :topic, and to which he re-
quested the particular attention of their Lordships.
His Lordship then proCeeded to state, it was from a
respectable individual of the sect commonly called
Quakers.. His grounds of complaint were divided
into four distinct heads, and made the subject of so
many petitione, which he should afterwards have to
submit to their Lordships. The prominent circum-
stances were the refusal of a certain Attorney whom
the Petitioner had applied to ; and also an Officer
whose duty it was to furnish such things, but who
refused to take out for, or to grant him a subpona.
This instrument was an order for the attendance tof
person to give evidence upon a trial. An omission
of this kind, they knew, may make a mm lose his
suit. It was tantamount so far to shutting up the
doors of a' Court of Justice. A more flagitious or
dangerous instance than that before them he never
knew. The Petitioner had been advised that the
Attorney he' employed had put in a wrong plea ; lie
remonstrated with him upon the subject. He was
told, that because his Bill was paid his subpana
should not be served, though the next were the day
of trial. With another Attorney he was not more
successful. He then determined to go himself to the
Officer of the Court. The officer gave what may Ise
a justifiable answer—it was, that though his name
was to the subptenas, it was not his business to grant
them. He next applied to the Deputy without suc-
cess. The Petitioner afterwards applied to a Coun-
sel, who said, that if he did not bring an Attorney,
he would not be his Counsel. This was not the an-
tient practice. Two Attornies left him. He could
not get a subpasna, nor a Counsel to plead his cause.
This seemed to him to be of a different nature from
the petition of Mr. Butt, which he had objected to
present, but it being afterwards presented, he thought
their Lordships had properly disposed of it. In the
case of the petition against the Jailor of Gloucester,
the Noble Viscount at the head of the Home Depart-
ment, had acted like a true friend to the Constitution,
in causing the evils complained of to be redressed...
;The p..seot was a case worthy of their serious atten-
tion, and be trusted their Lordships would therein
endeavour to vindicate the justice of the country.
The Petitioner's case, as he stated, was divided into
four heads, and on each a distinct prayer to their
Lordships was founded.
The LORD CHANCELLOR trusted that in
such a case their Lordships would agree with him in
the propriety of postponing any proceeding until they
had an opportunity of looking more into it. The
not receiving a Petition was different from taking it
into previous consideration. There were many cases
of the kind where the Courts 'of the country were
fully competent to afford redress to individuals; and
it was a consideratibn with that House to be cautious
as to an interference in cases of original jurisdiction
elsewhere, which may subsequently be submitted to
its own appellant jurisdiction. He would therefore
recommend that the consideration of the Petition
should be postponed.
Earl STANHOPE thought there could be no ob-
jection to the reading of the Petition.
None being offered,
The Clerk proceeded to read the address, which
was-4' To the Upper House of Parliament, com-
monly denominated the Lords Spiritual and Tem-
poral."
The LORD CHANCELLOR doubted the pro-
priety of receiving a Petition so addressed.
This idea gave rise to a conversation between Earl
STANNOPE and the Noble and Learned Lord, upon
the technical correctness, in point of form, of such a
designation, in which the former contended for its
admissibility, as that House was described as the
Upper House, in Commissions for declaring the Royal
Assent to Bills. And, besides, he thought the well
known custom of the Quakers should be allowed for.
Being farther read. the Petition appeared to be
;From Thomas John Walker ; but, before much more
of it was read,

The Marquis of BUCKINGHAM-rose and sug-
gested to his Noble Friend the propriety of withdraw-
ing the Petition for the purpose of its being rectified.
The LORD CHANCELLOR pointed out some
farther objections to its being received in its present
state.

Lord HOLLAND seemed to coincide in the pro-
priety of withdrawing the Petition.
Earl STANHOPE said, if it were the sense of
the House that it Were better to withdraw the present
Petition, he should do so, although he still believed
the House was properly described therein.
The Petition was accordingly withdrawn.
PROPERTY TAX.
Lord HOLLAND presented a Petition from the
Cordwainers' Ward, in the City of London, against
the continuance of the Income Tax.

The Duke of SUSSEX stated that he had three
Petitions to present to their Lordships on the same
subject. The first was from the Merchants, Bankers,

.and Traders of the Metropolis, and signed by more
than 17,000 persons, and which his Royal Highness
moped should be read.
The gist of this document was against the conti-
nuance of the Property or Income 7raz, the piaci-
