June next, at Eleven o'Clock la the Forenoon, in conformity

ROGER CALLAWAY,
Portsmouth, Mal 23, I A I t. Chief Clerk and Secretary.

" now" do stavid part of the motion, when the House
div ided.—Con tents, 12 ; Not-contents, 4 ; Majority, 8.
The Bill was accordingly read the second time.
INSOLVENT DEBTORS' BILL.
Lord REDESDALE moved, That the Report on
this Bill be received.—At the same time, his Lord-
ship stated, that he proposed the insertion of a clause
as an amendment, as to p.irsons, by which the assig-
nees might have the sequestration of the profits of the
living.
Earl STANHOI'E considered the Bill as ex-
tremely objectionable, so much so as would tend to
injure the principle of such a measure, to which he
was a particular friend.
The Earl of MOI RA admitted that the Bill did
not meet his ideas completely on this subject. But
it was to be expected that no measure could be with-
out defects, and at first, perhaps, none could be de-
vised without being found practically inconvenient.
—Still future improvements might be made, and he
.should give his vote that the Bill be engrossed.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, in this state of
the House, would not press for a division, but on the
third reading, he should certainly vote against the
measure.
Lord REDESDALE observed, the House mig'►t
dispose of the Bill as they thought proper; it I ad oc-
cupied much of his attention and his labour. He
meant also to have introduced other Bills, if this
should be adopted, for the benefit of the creditor.
The Report was received with Lord REDVIDA LE'S
I Amendmentkandordered to be engrossed.—Adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
A Message from the Lords signified their assent to the Portu-
gal Treaty Bill, the Foreign Linen Bill, the Quarantine Bill,the
Lunatic Marriage Bill, and some other public and private Bdls.
Mr. WHARTON brought In a Bill for repealing the Custenis
Duties on Raw Hides and Hair from Ireland, which v.as read a
first time, and ordered to be• read a second time to-morrow. •
The Verdigris Dill was read a first time, and ordered for a se-
cond reading to-inon ow.
The Hat Duty Repeal Bill was also read a first time.
The adjourned debate on the Irish Tobacco Duty Bill was re-
surned—the amendments agreed to, and the third reading ordered

for Thursday.
The Report on the Charitable Donations BM was received and
agreed to. To be recommitted to-morrow.
The Irish Drainage Bill went through a Committee, the Re-
porkof which was ord,ered to be received to-morrow.
Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL brought up the Report of
the Shoreham Road Committee, and moved, " That the Row-
lutions thereof be read and Agreetl tu."
Mr. SWAN moved, as an amendment, " That this Report be
taken into further considers inn on 'iliursday oe'nnight."
After some discussion, in which Sir Robert Peek, Ms. Ken-
rick, Mr. Peter Moore, Mr. Western, Mr. W. Adams, Mr. Cal-
craft, Mr. Fuller, and Mr. G. Vansittarr, took a part, strangers
were ordered to withdraw, and upon oar return, we understood
that the Report was agreed to, and we found the House discuss-
ing as to when the third reading of the bill should take place.
Upon the mutton that the bill be read a third time on Friday
nest, the House divided, when there appeared—ln favour of the
third reading an that day, 55 ; Against il,2s—Majoriry, 30.
Mr. SWAN gave ponce, that lie would to-morrow move, that
the Minutes of the Shoreham Road Committee should be printed.'
1 he Loan Bill, the Nova Scotia Rum Bill, and the East India
Bonds Bill, were severally read a third time and passed.
The Porter Colorring Bill was read a second time, and ordered
to be committed to-morrow.
Mr. TAYLOR postponed his motion as to the Suitors in Chan- I!
eery, and the appellant jurisdiction of the House of Lords, from
this day to Wednesday se'nnight ; and at the same time moved,
" That the Report of the Committee appointed to search the
Lords' Journals upon this subject be pnined."—Ordered.
TUE DULL OF YOltK.
Lord MILTON intimated his intention, at an
early day, of submitting to the House a Motion on
the subject of the Reappointment of his Royal High-
ness the Duke of York, to the Office of Commander-
in-Chief. He could net immediately fix on the day,
but mentioned Thursday next, or Thursday week, as'
the business of the H2Ottitt might permit. • '
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
wished to know from the Noble Lord, what was the
nature of his intended Motion ?
Lord MILTON replied, that his intention was, in
the first place, to move that an Address should be
presented to his Royal Highness the Prince Regent,
to know by whom he had been advised to reinstate
the Duke of York its the chief command of the army.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
returned his acknc a iedgments to the Noble Lord, for
hi* polite acquiescence ivith his request.
BOARD OF CONTROUL.
Mr. LUSHINGTON brought up the Report of
the Bill for Raising the Salaries of the Board of Con-'
trout, &c. &c.
' Mr. CREEVEY said there were several objections,
he could make to the Bill, but should confine him-1
self to one, that was the raising of the salaries of the.
President and the Commissioners; they had now five',
thousand pounds per annum, two thousand the Pre.'
sident, and two Commissioners at fifteen hundred
pounds each. This Board was only for swearing
Gentlemen before they could be eligible to fill cer-
tain situations. He had no objection to raise the sa-
laries of the clerks under them ; he would therefore
submit to the House an amendment, that five
thousand pounds per annum be granted, so that an ad-
dition may be made to the salaries of the clerks." The
President and Commissioners to remain as they were.
Lord CAS'I'LEREAGH supported the Bill, say.
ing, that when he held the sitivation of President of the
Board of Controul, he found it highly necessary for
xn advance of salary, and saw the necessity of it in
every departmeet of that Ate. When he resigned
that situation he recommended the East India Com-1
poly to raise the salaries, particularly the President's,
to enable him to support with credit the dignity and
honour of so exalted a situation.
-Mr. ROBERT DUNDAS.—He should not be
tempted, from what had fallen front the Right Hon.
Gentleman, (Mr. Creevey) to withdraw his inten-
tions; he had said before, and would again say, if
there was a necessity for an advance of salary in any
office, it was the Board of Controul.
Mr. CA LC RAFT.—The Right Honourable Gen-
tleman ( Mr. R. Dundas) is not only speaking for
himself but for all those under him. There might,
perhaps, be a necessity for raising the salaries of the
Board of Controul ; he thought this a very improper
time to bring it f4,rward, It was judicious to grant
an advanced,rilary to the Right Honourable Gen-
tleman. If they were of an opinion to think of those
under him, he should not give it his sanction, and
was determined never to consent to the increase of
any, till the demands of those who were fighting their I
country's cause were complied `with— to Officers in
the Army and Navy.
Mr. ADAMS.—It might be requisite instead of
Commissioners *have a President and a Vice Presi-
dent, as those Commissioners perhaps were °lily sine-

Mr. WALLACE.—The Right Honourable Gen-
tleman (M'r. R. Dundas) had stated the necessity of
the increase, and what the•dury of the office was on
a former night, and he (Mr. Wallace) was very well
convinced he would not have brought it forward en
his own account.
Mr. LUSHINGTON and the CHANCELLOR
of the EXCHEQUER spoke briefly in favour of the
I measure. _

General TA RLETON did not wish to refuse any
class of men a fair remuneration for the services they
might perform ; but he thought, that if the plea aris-
ing from the necessities of the State were admitted
with regard to an increase of pay to the army, it
would; a fortiori, apply to the claims of any other
description of persons, however unimportant the na-
ture of their services might be. They assuredly could
net surpass in importance those by which our gallant
soldiery were every day adding to their own glory
and the debt dirt them by their country. But was
there really a necessity for this wretched parsimony,
either towards them or towards others ? if so, could
any thing be deduced from the Budget opened the
ether night by the Chancellor of the Exchequer with
so much exultation, and no doubt with keen hopes
entertained, if not expressed, of public favour ?
Could any thing, he repeated, be thence inferred with
respect to the flourishing state of our finances? If
our finances were really flourishing, assuredly we
should not in the midst of abundance grudge a slender
, addition to the comforts of those by whose toils and
perils all our comforts were secured. An Hon.
Gentleman who had spoken after him in a former de-
bate on this question, had sought to cast a stig-
ma on him, as having reasoned in favour of his pro-
fessional brethren more in the spirit of a stock-broker
than an officer. No doubt the Officers of the Army
daily prized the glory which the Hon. Gentleman
had pointed out, as their appropriate reward (and
true it was that it was now more than ever within
their reach); but the Hon. Gentleman would do well
to recollect, that those officers could feel privations
AS well as other men ; they might seek " the bubble
reputation even at the cannon's mouth," but when
obtained they could not live upon it. He should con-
sider that they must be aware how much the high in-
centive by which they were impelled entitled them to
the admiration and gratitude of their fellow-citizens,
and how bitterly they must feel when they perceived
that, ever prodigal of their blood, their sole boon con-
sisted of barren thanks, while they were suffered to
drag on an existence on a pittance not surpassed in
amount by the earnings of the veriest drudges in the
community. Perhaps, indeed, the Hon. Gentleman
might deem it impolitic to render that existence less se-
vere on the principle of its becoming more valuable to
its possessor, as in the case of the soldier mentioned by
the Romansatyrist. He wassure that such an argument
would be in perfect unison with the whole tenor of the
Hun. Gentleman's reasoning; but he trusted there was
II spirit of another description prevalent among the peo-
ple, and that the loud expression of their generous
indignation would ere long procure that poor reward
for their defenders to which they were so justly enti-
i tied. Were it granted, there would be still no want
of room for the operation of those high excitements
Ito which the Honourable Gentleman was so fond of
!trusting ; there was no more demanded than would
just obviate a ludicrous contrast between those same
high excitements and the mean appearance to which,
:in the event of its being withheld much longer, the
rapid rise on the necessaries of life must soon reduce
! them. After all, Officers were men, they could not
be fed altogether on glory ; and a poet, who perhaps
could appreciate high excitements as well as the Ho-
nourable Gentleman himself, had not scrupled to de-
scribe valour not as a purely moral qualit3, but in
some degree resulting from
.4 Generous wine and food!"
Shame on the men—shame on the assembly—shame
on the country that would, in the spirit of a half-
starved miser, hazard the want of their being felt!
The question being then put as to the amendment,
a division took place, when there appeared—Fur it 19
—Against it 65—M ijrnity 44.
rum CUSTOMS.
Mr. WHARTON brought up the Report on the
Irish Customs Bill ; the amendments on which were
agreed to, and the third reading moved by Mr. Fos-
ter for to-morrow.
Sir JOHN NEWPORT pressed for further time,
in order to give an opportunity of hearing the senti-
ments of the mercantile part of Ireland. He therefore
moved, as an amendment, to substitute Friday for
to.morrow.
Mr. FOSTER could not agne to this delay, as he
intended the operation of the Bill to commence from
the Ist of June, and this would prolong it beyond
that period.
Mr. HUTCHINSON condemned the hurry with
which Irish subjects were disposed of. In other cases
delays were acceded to, but no time would be given
to hear the opinion of the Irish people.
Mr. FOSTER said, he pressed nothing beyond the
common custom of the House in regard to Money
Bills.
Mr. PONSONBY observed, that it was impossible
for Gentlemen from Ireland to bar front their con-
stituents before the Ist of June, when this measure
was to take effect, and on that ground condemned its ,
precipitancy.
Mr. Wynne, Mr. Foster, Mr. Dundas, Sir john
Newport, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, then
interchanged a few words, and the third reading of
the Bill was ultimately fixed for Thursday next.
INTERCHANGE OP MILITIAS.
Mr. RYDER moved the order of the day for the
House going into a Committee on the Militia inter-
change Bill. On the question that the Speaker do
leave the Chair,
Colonel STANLEY wished, in consequence of a
meeting of Colonels of Militia, and Lords Lieutenants
of Counties, held this day, and their having appointed
a Committee to wait on the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer to-morrow, that some delay might be ranted,
to afford them an opportunity of urging their objec-
tions to the bill.
Mr. TIGHE, though he approved of the principle
of the bill, yet as he understood it was considered to
be objectionable in Ireland, also wished for delay.—
He alluded to the necessity there was for introducing
a clause, to secure the Irish Catholic, when he came
to this country, in the free exercise of his religion, ansl
to exempt him from penalties under unrepealed sta-
tutes, as was done with regard to foreign Catholic

should have places Mr worship appropriated for Mt
use ; and concluded by moving, as an Amendment,
to afford an opportunity of hearing from Ireland.that
instead of the word 4, now" the wurds 44 Seventh of
Jane" should be substituted.

Sir J. NEWPOirr followed on the same side, acid
stated that, according to mike, A CAtilltlie Meeting
was to-morrow to he held in Dirblin. to c, ns,der o
the propriety of petitioning on the subject el anoint
the Catholics the free exercise of their repo . L;
this measure, as was said, was intended to promote
union, let it not be made the subject of controversy.
By the Ist of Geo. I. chap. IS. it was rendered peva)
to carry arms without taking the oath or supremacy,
and he could not see reason why a doubt on this tub.
ject should be suffered to remain on the mind of any
one, when a single explicit clause ia this bill woi.Rd
do it away.
Mr. GRATTAN was of thessame opinion, and
read part of a letter from the Titular Areibishop at
Tuam, to the effect, that the Irish Catholics would
oppose the measure, unless the free exercise of their
religion was secured to them by law. This should,
he said, be a matter of right, and not dependent. on
the will of any officer. The'introduction of a chum
to the effect would promote recruiting in Ireland, and
was beside the least objectionable and most statesman
like mode of acting. It would also prevent the
meetings projected in various parts, and he should
therefore prefer having such a clause moved on the
Report, though in the mean time he should vote for
1 the delay.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER ex-
pected another conclusion from the Right Hon. Gen-
tleman, than that contained in his last words.—
He could see nn cause for delay, as the House
were already sufficiently in possession of the object
of any petitions that might be presented, and might
as well consider that point now as hereafter. The
free exercise of their religion was the object the Ca-
tholics had in view, and it appeared at once, that
they most enjoy that under the present Bill, or it
would be one law compelling to the breach of an-
other. All that could be wished was the same free-
dom to attend to public worship in England, as they
enjoyed in Ireland, and it was clear that they would
have all they requested by this law, which virtually
repealed all former Acts on the same subject.—
But if any doubt remained, it would at once be re-
moved by looking at the clause, which ordained
that the Militias of England, Scotland and Ireland,
should enjoy all the same privileges and exemptions
on their removal, to which they were entitled in
their own countries respectively— ( Hear.) "With re.
pect to attendance on divine worship, the same or-
der from the Commander in Chief would be issued
here, as that on which they were contented to rest
in Ireland. lie concluded by objecting 'Li, delay as
unnecessary, as any future consider-anon might have
its full weight in other stages, or on a recommittal
of the Bill, if that was requisite.

Mr. HUTCHINSON thought the good sense of
the Right Hhn. Gentleman always deserted him oa
Irish subjects. He had proceeded in his whole state.
ment on the erroneous grounds, that the Irish Cabo,
Tics were satisfied with their situation in Ireland, which
Ma: not the fact; on the contrary, their lowans,s
had been violated, and they wished to be better so-
cured in England, than to rest on the mere order of
any Commanding Officer. They did not wish an
Act that none but the. learned could understand, but
an Act, the meaning of which would be obvious to
the ignorant.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
denied that he had argued on the ground, that the
Catholics were contented, but that they would be in
the same situation in England as in Ireland.
General TARLETON expressed his admiration
of the policy of the measure in a military view. He
spoke highly of the Irish Militia, than whom he never
saw better troops in his life. As for the hardship
of going to Ireland, it did not appear to him to be a
great one. The passage was short, and the country
fine and hospitable, with excellent sporting, shooting,
and hshing. (A laugh.)
Sir W. WY NNE did not think the measure expo-
silent, and would vote for delay.
Mr. RYDER opposed delay as ungrounded, and
to satisfy the Catholics, read the °plaint of the
Attorney and Solicitor-General, that the Catholics
vus#l, in England, be entitled to the same privileges
as in Ireland, under the 33d of Geo. 111. and to all
exemptions contained in the 10th section of the same
Act, any Act to the contrary 'notwithstanding. He
also had authority from the Duke of York to state,
that a similar order to that under which they enjoyed
their public worship in Ireland, would be issued in
this country.
Sit JOHN IVOPORT and Sir W. WYNNE
explained.
Mr. W. ELLIOT said, if Gentlemen opposite
nouid not adopt the clause, they might advise the
Regent to frame an Article of War, that would be
satisfactory.
Lord PALMERSTON supported the Bill.
Mr. PONSONBY doubted that evit Mr. Fox, hay•
ing the subject completely before him, had withdrawn
such a clause as that now proposed—if he had, he
would doubt the accuracy ems ot. Mr. Foes judg-
ment. He rose, however, not so much to speak to
the question, as to notice, that an Honourable Friend
of his would submit a motion on this point sin the
report, when they would have an opportunity of dis-
cussing it.
Mr. HERBERT said he would vote for any clause
that would render the Catholic Rights clear and es-
pack,. but, in the mean time, would not suffer that to
I induce him to vote against so excellent a measure.
Mr. TIGHE explained, and after a few words
from Lord George Cavendish, the original question
was put and agreed to without a division.—The
House then went into a Committee on this Bill.
Mr. Secretary RYDER said, that in consequence
of the objections made against the want of a clause,
relative to the exercise of religious rites, he had rn.ide
an alteration which was inserted before the WOI J.
44 exemption," the words " civil, military, religious,"
and made the Irish Militia subject to the same tales
and regulations as now in force—(llear!).
After some further discussion on the different
clauses, in which the CHAT CJILLOR of the EXCHIQUVer
Mr. HULBERT, Mr. GRATTAN, Mr. HUTCHINSON,
Colonel Duceerr, General TatetaroN, and Sir Joini7
Nyman., took a part, the House resumed, and the

Pr
