practice to pay all jurors summoned. but now only to
pay those who were empanaelled.
Mr. W. SMITH ac k nowledged that there was every
disposition on the part of the Excise to accommodate;
but thought there was great want of amendment in the
system.—The House then divided

Mr. Secretary HUSK ISSON :rid that he was quite
ready to go on with his motion then if the House wished
it. As, however, it was of great magnitude, he feared
it was then too late to obtain a fair attention for it'. He
knew also that some Members had left the House under
the impression that a discussion of so much importance
could not be brought on that evening. There really
was so much upon the Order Book that he feared, unless
be could obtain a bearing ro-mo, row after another busi-
gess of importance had been disposed of, he should
have but little chance for the remainder of the Session.
He hoped then, he would not be considered as trespass-
ing is naming to-morrow for the discussion—(Hear).
He could not help observing, that if such long discus-
sions were indulged in upon Petitions, it would be im-
possible to get through the fixed business of the House.
Some regulation to keep such discussion within limi.s
must be adopted. That night, for instance, a discussion
upon a Petition had been introduced upon the highly
important question of wages. It had occupied two
hours, and yet no one thought fit to rriove for the ap-
pointment of a Committee. Now, he thought the better
way would have been, to present the Peition, and give
notice of a motion upon it for a particular day. He
hoped some regulations of this kind would be adopted
for the future.
Mr. HUM R observed. that some years age. the rule was, that
no Petition should be presented after a given hour.
Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN moved that the Petition which
be bad presented from Moses Wynne, respecting the calculations
upon life annuities, be referred to the Finance Committee.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER hoped the Hon.
Goodrum would not press his motion, which he thought would
oily tend to embarrass the Committee.
. ler. BARING thought it would be a waste of time.
Mr. Alderman W AITH MAN said bensould not press the
fishnet. then; but he would certainly bring facts under the con-
Magadan of the House.
The motion was then negatived without a division.
Mr. G. BANKES moved for a Select Committee to inquire
Into the grievances suffered under the assessments of Roman Ca-
tholic Land-tas.—Agreed to without a division.
The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the
House adjourned at a Qualms vo Tomes o'CLiscs.
