IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, MAT 6..

The Swan River Settlnnen' Bill was read a third time.
Lord If A T NA RD presested a Padden tram a number al
we mere in the minty of Essex, praying that NM relief night he
afforded them.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY presented a P•.
!Won from a peen named,Cieorge Barrow, of South.
.well, in the county of Nottingham, complainiag:pf
various abuses in tbe coal, trade. and praying that the
House would take into oonsideratioe some masers to
prevent them. The petitioner stated that he had pros
perty in Derbyshire, from which he was is the habit,
of sending coals to be consumed at his manufactory la
the county Of Middlesex, but, before he landed those
galls on his own premises for his own consumption, be
was compelled to incur a very considerable expense, as
Mee law now stood, by the employment of meters nod
factors, whose services were in no respect beneficial tol
him. The petitioner also complained of the.heavy dies
which were exacted on the importation af coils, he
the.purpose of defraying the expenses of the approaches,
to the New London Bridge. The Noble Marquis eh-
pressed a hope that this petition, as It selated p a
matter of very considerable importeoce would meet
with due attention from their Lordships.—The politicos
was then read, and laid upon the table.
The Bari if CIIICH !STILL promoted a Petition tram the
inhabitants of the borough of 1.41/44, in the smart of
praying for the abolitions toe duty ea coals.

accepted the office of Governor of Madras; and em-
barking for India withoot vacating his seat, left,it_he
city of Canterbury with only one Representative. The
Noise well knew that is most great towns the repre-
sentation was divided between two parties. It was so
divided. as he understood in the city of Caoterbory.
One large portion, therefore. of the inhabitants of, the
city of Canterbury had lost its Representative in that
House. For. although he WAS quite sure that no body
of constituents could have a better or a MOSS active Re-

tras than his Noble Friend, who was the other
m
Member for the city of Canterbury, yet being thus left
with only nos Representative was undoubtedly a se-
dan grievance, el which the inhabitants of Canterbory
,bad a right to complain. With respect to the city 411
Canterbury, he (Mr. Baring) was wholly unceosected
with it. He was not aware that he knew woof its 1111-
10riteate, even by sight.. He could, therefore, have so
*silos view in his present proposition. He bad sin
the slightest. knowleJge who was likely to be taunted
if the Bill for which he was about to move should re-
ceive the sumacs of the Legislature. It was evident,l
therefore, that he could ant be influenced by any perfi
noel motive; nor could be have any party or political
motive; because there could be no doubt that whoever
might be elected would, like. Isis predecessor. sit OM
the benches on the Treasury side of the House. H.
trusted, therefore, that the Hesse would see that he wall
mutated...solely by a sense of what he conceived to be
his Daudet* duty.. it scald be Lot them ;o judge if
the measure that be intended to propoie was lust and
became,. It was
,his intention that .the Bill should
apply to perms weeping .ofices in India; and that
it should be not merely perspectitie, but be applicable
to this particolar case of the Cite of Canterbury. If this
last-mentiooed provision should not be considered de.
suable by the House, it weld be very easy to omit it;
Wit would, undoubtedly, form a part bf the Bill when
fowedieed. The specific offices under the Crow., the
holders of which should be allowed to have seats in Par.
Kamen; and those the holders of labia should be en-
chided from seats in Parliament, bad already been de-
termined by a Select Committee of that House.. He by
no means withed to mach on the decisions of that
Committee. He wai not omit those who were dis-
poled, st the present moment, to complain of any
great influence of the Crown in that House which called
foe reduction. It was undoubtedly true, that as some
of the Aces in India were conferred by the East India
Company. 'object to the approval or disapproval of
the Board of Control. those offices might,in one serve,
be considered offices held under the Clown. But it
was by no means oo that ground that be made Ibis
present proposition. It was on the. sicced stated in
the petition which' bad been presented to that Houle
from the Electors of the city of Canierhery—naundy,
the incompatibility of the situation of Governor of
Madras with the discharge of the duties of a Member
of the House of Commons. He knew it Might be said
that many of the Members of tint House were absent
voluntarilybat Others. who were naval and military
men, were occasionally ordered by the Crowe on service
in distant parts of the world; but those were cases
quite distinct from the cue in his contemplation. If
any Hon. Member, jealous of a new precedent. were tom
recommend an adherence to what was sometimes called
44 the wisdom of our ancestors," he would beg to re.,
mind that Hon. Member, that our ancestors were is-
finitely more difficult to satisfy on the point of the per;
tonal attendance of Members than we were. Our Con-
stituting, however, had animist teadesty to get rid of
all loose operations of the prerogative of the Crown on
the oseiiik, and all loose operations of the privileges of
redisaseat on the other ; and to reduce to the form of
specific laws whatever of both it might seem desirable
to retain. Therefor& although in the olden times there
were precedents of moving for new writs on the ground
of the absence of Members, and even when that absence
was occasioned by ill health,, yet such a practice bad
been so loos disused, that it would be justly considered
to be a stretch of authority to have recourse to it ;
and it would be much better to pass a specific Act to
meet the case. He was no friend to legislating on any
speculative contingency which might arise. Bet here
a real difficulty had arisen, and a complaint had been
made to the House of it. He had not intended to say
so mob on the present occasion, but to reserve him-
self for the second reading of the Bill. He would,
therefore, trouble the House with only one word more.,
He bad not heard any objection nude to the principle'
of the measure as far as respected its prospective opera.
tion ; but he had beard objections to its being applied
to any wasting case, or in other words, to Mr. Lashio"
toe. His opinion was, that the Bill ought to cover
that case, and that it ought to provide for the fillies
op of the vacancy in the House created by the insp
bility Gf performing incompatible duties. if the House
differed from him it would be easy to make an altera-
tion in the Bill, but in the first instance he should think
it his duty to press the provision to which be alluded.
The Honourable Gentleman concluded by moving for
leave to bring in a Bill to exclude persons accepting
offices in the East Indies from being Members of the
noose of Commons.
Colonel LUS}IINGTON said. that although it was
not his intention to offer any opposition to the present
Emotion, still he should feel it his duty to oppose the
Introspective clause which the Honourable Member had
said it was his intention to introduce into it in the Com-
mittee. The observations respecting the grievance of
