PAROCHIAL SETTLEMENT (•COTLAND)
Mr. KENNEDY moved the further consideration of the Ro-
yston the Parochial Settlement (Scotland) Bill.
Mr. ES rcoußT said, the whole of his oppos;tion
to the Bill amounted.to this—he could not conceive on
„hat principle foreigners could not gain a se•tlement in
VotWKI, in less than seven yeas, when in England it
wps obtained in. a much shorter period. His object wa•
to assimil.,te, as much as possible, the laws of the Em
pine, and not make a particular law applicable to a par
titular part. •

Mr. FERGUSON said, that to assimilate the poor
1344 it would be• necessary to assimilate otl-,eis. The
laws of Scotland and England d'ffeied materially in
„rions wigs. It was not generally known that there
were poor laws in Scotland—such, however, was the
fact. They. were seldom resorted to, because of the
feilings of honest pride of the inhabitants of that country.
He diJ not consider seven years would be too long a
peen • to gain 3 settlement.
Mr. MAXWELL said, the object of the Bill was,
not to deprive of acistance those who required it. but
because in the country whence low priced labourers
muethere was no system of Poor Laws.

sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL disapproved of the
BA at he thought it would give to Scotland an unfair
aleantaga over England.
Mr. Humeipported the Bill, as did
Mr. FERGUSON, who contended that it was net
iatended, as liaJ Wen argued by some Hon. Members,
us measure of /wiliness against the unhappy persons
afro crowded to Scotlar7d atom Ireland in search of
food and employment.
Sir J. NEWPORT commented strongly upon the
course mutg,.t to be adopted against his unfortunate
countrymen. At first their labour 7vas accepte.l with
aridity, but nosy, when the British population was suf-
fering partially from want of employment, the poor
LA labourer was to be met with all species •rf harsh
treatment and enactments. The influx of Irish tvor,
and their attempts to settle Here. were now the weal
topics of complaint, but none was uttered again -t the
intim and the permanent residence here of the rich
Irish—(Hear, hear)—the owners of the soil of Lc-
land, who drew from that unhappy country, and spent
among 131itish tradesrsen, and on British mann-
turn, upwards of three millions of pounds annually,
im which, it, as it ought to be, spent at home, would

Right .Itonourable Baronet then drew a melancholy

Szottish shoes, to avoid immediate starvation.
Mr. KENNEDY defended the Bill from the impu-
tation that it was, intended as,a measure of harzlness
against the Irish emigrants.
Mr.utAt4 r was convinced that at no very Aivant
day the House would have to consider the necessity of
applying some system of Poor Laws to Ireland. Tele
libn. Member concluded by expressing his doubts of.
the correctness of the a ght Hon. Baronet's (Sir John
Newport's) statement respecting the extent of distress
Ut Ireland.

Sir J. NEWPORT said he knew Ireland quite as
well as did the Hon. Member who spoke last, and in-
sled better.4.(Hear)--and would reassert his statement,
which did not rest merely on his own observations, but
en the authority of the Hon. Member for Midhurst (Mr.
Smith), who had been the Chairman of the Irish
Committee--(Heat).
