TRIVOLOC'S AaRFST lIII.t.

On the motion that the above Bill be read and
reported,
Lord !slot obferved, that there was a elinafe
which he H ifhcti to be introduced into the Biil.
Butas it was not propoled in the Committee yeiieri
day, there might be i*orne informality in propotmg
it in the ref:int fiati;e oldie Bill. It vs as a clank,
indeed, which made no material alteration in the
meaiiiie, lint in miler to be its iti lei compliance
ith the rules and proceeding, of the !Link, lie
%nett lie Habit be eel permit ion to move
that the Bill he recommitted to-niiirrow, for the
purprife of receiving the choice in due form. With
regard to the principle and tendency of the Pill,
he Itill retained his otir,;mil notions, though lie
was by no means ii,elinod to !dim the power of
creditors over &boos, cfpecialle in cafes where a
clafs of perfons, calling themielses Gentlemen,
:night be to twit-and their CT tditors, in
debts not aniountilig to mute than tol. It never,
indeed, voterrd his mind th.it ally oafs of credi-
tors could be injured by the measure which lie had
the honour of bringing forward.
.2 1,1,R n C ASCE LIMIt left the Woolfack, and :
declared that the Noble Lord's Bill at fira, and in
molt of its provitions, met with his entire and molt
cordial Rant ; and he cot:felled it had done the
highelt honour to the Noble Lord's head and
heart. But, upon more cool and mature confider.
3tion of its tendency, he was now convinced that
tt wiiii!d not anfwer the objeEt which the Noble
Lord had in contemplation ; on the contrary, from
a vat iety of miles, it would afford no real relief
to the debtor, while it might materially injure and
opprefs the creditor. As to the point of form for
inut the claufe, it was his opinion the Bill
Mould meet with no delay on that account. A
notion, he imagined, might be now made for the
Houfe now to refolve itfelf into aCommittee for the
purpofe of receiving the claufe, after which the
report might be received, and the Bill read a third
time to-morrow without its encountering any fur-
ther delay.
His Lordlhip's fuggeftion being agreed to, the
Bill was recommitted, the daubs and report re-
ceived, and the Bill ordered to be read a third
time to-morrow.

On the motion that the Pat-Office Duty
B:11 be committed, _

.T Lord AUCKLAND rote to animadvert on fame
inaccuracies in the Bill, to which he had alluded
on a former occafion. The inaccuracies which he
adverted to were contained in a clam& of the Bill,

which not only Rated the duties to be impofed on
Ireland, and the exemptions therefrom. but alto to
certain exemptions which Ihould obtain in England.
The exemptions were in farour of perfons which
were not acknowledged. This claufe had no con-
nation with the title of the Bill, and therefore, in
his opinion, mutt he altogether rejeaed. The ob-
ject of the Bill was clofely connected with a depart-
ment over which he had the honour to prefide ; he
hoped their LordLbips would creole the anxious
caution and jealoufy which he should naturally
feel refpeding every thing that concerned its re-
gulations and profperity. Since he had the honour
M being connected with it, he had the fatisladion
to obferve, that this branch of the revenue became
daily more flourilhing, and that it now amounted
to abuse 900,00c1. He was fenfible. indeed, that
his objection to this claufc mull prove fatal to the
Bill ; yet, as the inaccuracy he complained of
could not pats over unobferved by their Lordfhips,
lie trolled the Noble Lord on the Woolfack would
be pleafed to fuggefl the moil effectual and fpcedy
means of getting over the objection, svitbout re-
tarding to any inconvenient length-the paffing of
the Bill, which it was neceffary Ihould be in force
in a very fhort time.
The LORD CHANCELLOR acknowledged the in-
accuracy. and lamented it Ihould have crept into
the. bill. As, however, it was urgent to pafc it, he
thought the belt mode nf proceeding would he to

The LORD CHANCELLOR hared that Ireland
fliould never experience any thing illiberal or no-
ft the part of the Imperial Parliament. He
could at leaft anfwer for himfeif as an individual ;
and confcious he was that he felt difpofed to at
as anxionfly and as flrentinully for whatever re-
garded the interells of Ireland, as for the part of
the Empire in which he was born and educated.
Indeed, he looked upon the inhabitants of Eng-
land, Ireland, and Scotland as the children and
fubjeas of the fame parent and Sovereign, and be
united they would all unite in hand and heart to
repel any infult or attack that might be offered
againft any of them. To the prote6lion and de.
fence of Ireland he looked as earnealy as to the
defence of this part of the United Kingdom; and
it in a bill like the prefent Ireland was introduced
inlead of England, he &mid exaelly have follow-
ed the fame courfe of proceeding as he had now
adopted.
Lord LIMERICK and Lord CARLETON raid a
few words in approbation of what had fallen from
the Noble and Learned Lord, after which the bill
was read a third time, and ordered back to the
Commons.—Adjourned.
