ADMINISTRATION OF JIATICI IN IRILAND.
The Marquis of ABERCORN Dated, that he had
been applied to. to prefent a Petition to their Lord-
!hips, on a fubjeti which he conceived to be ;of great
importance, as it concerned the law of the country,
and implicated the condat of one of the Judges in
Ireland. He therefore thought it incumbent on him
to give previous notice of his intention to prefent fuch
Petition, that as full an attendance of their Lordfltips
as poffible might be procured. With this view lie
moved, that their Lordlips be fummoued for Thurf-
day.—Ordered.
ANIENDMINTS TO THE VOLUNTEER BILL.

The Order of the Day for confidering the Report
of the Commons on the Lords Amendments to the
Volunteer Bill being read, •
Lord HAWKESBURY Rated, that the Com-
mons had agreed to almott the whole amendments
made by their Lordfhips to that Bill, and to all of
tlsore amendments which were of any great impor-
tance. He was confcious that the whole of the amend-
ments made in that Houfe had improved the Bill,
and he could have wifbed that the Commons had
agreed to them all. When, however, the impoitance
of the Bill was confidered, and the advantages which
the immediate palling of it would produce were taken
into account, he could not fuppofe it would be thought
by any Noble Lord that its total failure ought to be
rifleed by ;Miffing on the amendments, trilling both
in number and importance, to which the Commons
had refuted their concurrence.
Lord GRENVILLE exprefed his forrow at tee-
ing the prefent Bill again on their Lordthips' table.
He had expeacd that a Bill very different in its na-
ture and areas would by this time have been before
the Houfe. The prefent he confiJered fo far
from poffeffing the advantages which had been
arcribed to it, as calculated rather to difcourage and
impede the Volunteer Syßetn, than to encourage and
fupport it. If, therefore. he had leen the profpea
of any other effeaive meafure being adopted. he
Mould have thought bimlelf called on to move that
the further confederation of the Refolutions of the
Commons be poflponed to Tome future day on which
the Houfe was not fitting. At all events he could
fee no neceffi!y why the palling of the Bill &odd be
hurried on, if the amendments to which the Com.
mons had refuted their concurrence, .were at all cal-
culated to improve it. On a conference, the argu-
ments of their LorcHhips in rapport of their amend
meats, might be fuffictent to remove the objections
Of the Commons. The only reafito for hurrying
through the Bill, could be the claufes it contained
authorifing corps to be called out on permanent duty;
and this pretence. he obrerved, whether legally or
not he fhould not now inquire, was already generally
adopted. His Lordthip then went into a defence of
the different amendments made by the Lords, and
from which the Corimons had diffented, particularly
there appointing depots for the arms in each feparate
parifh, diminithing the trouble of Commanding Offi-
cers in making returns to Surveyors of Taxes, etc.
On each of which he moved that the Lords do infift
on their amendment.
Without a (Ingle word, however, from the oppo-
fite bench, in fupport of the Commons' reafons of
diffent, each motion of Lord Grenvale's was nega.
ti,ved without a divifion.
On the claufe allowing Commanding Officers to
demand the clothes, arms, and accouuements of any
Volunteer to be delivered up into their pofreffion, into
which the Lords had introduced an amendment ex-
planatory of fuch polliffion being only in troll for his
Majelly, for any lubfcription, foeiety, or for any in.
divtdual by whom the fame might have been furnilh•
ad, which amendment was diffented front by the Com-
mons, a pretty long and warm converfation enfaed.
Lord GRENVILLE viewed the rejeaton of the
amendment as being a moil extraordinary, unac-
countable, and indefenfible mrifure. He took fbatne
to himfelf that he had not difcovcred the impropriety
and objeaionable nature of the original claufe when
he &It glanced over the Bill. Another Noble Lord,'
whom he was happy to fee in the Hinge (Lord Auck-
land) had had Cie honour to propofe the amendment.
and he no nutted to that Noble Lord'eaffiflance in
defending it, if, indeed, he had not changed his
opinion. As the claufe originally flood. he could
view it in no other light than as a toleration to in•
wade private property.
The LORD CHANCELLOR raw no objeaion to'
adopting the refolution of the Comm, tn. It would
be ridiculous to ruppole that Government had not a
sight to authorite Commanding Officers to ruder
arm' and atumuniti, n to be given no demand. There
could be no fulpicion that they ...mild make any im•
proper ufe of this .tu 11,,rity ; and, at all events, there
was a claufe in thts Bill wilt. It afforded immediate
authorifine an alteration or amendment der.
i .g the prefent Sefton.
Lord GRENVILLE was convinced the Noble
and Learned L-e had completely mitionceived the
meaning of the claire elle he could not hare !nod up.
buidinA, as be did, the fire law office in the country,
and give fartaioo to an ail w'n"ch was to tolerate A.
to invade the pr• petty f E. merely becaufe there
was a attire in the Aa which would all is, B. to ob-
tain rcdrels during this Seenn.
The Earl of CARLISLE Paid, that he, as the
beg affifiance he thought he could g' .e to the coantry
at this cats, bed c'•.atio..l a Corps At Mb own es
pence. He villvd to korner, was it meant that the
Commander t f that Corps might take tie cl atlas
from that men to whom he had g rca than, and
pat them on the backs if other* of .Isom be knew
nothisi ?
The LORD CHANCELLOI ex pl.ned, anr:
maintained, that not prorerry, bi‘ m re!? &lover),
vas meant by the Maitre, and ton p °petty wauld
II eatain in the proper owner.
Lord AUCKLAND agreed. tLit all CA ;takes

of diffent Rated by the Commons were wrong, but
lie was convinced they had others which welt
good. He hill continued in favour of the amend-
ment, but could not rise the fate of the Bill by per-
filling in it.
Lords MULORAVE and HA RROWBY alfo
maintained that there WAS no neceffity for the amend-
ment, as the claufe did not invest Commanders with
the property of the eloailis. &c. but merely with the
right to demand delivery of them.
Earl FITZ \VILLIAM could not figure bow it
Was poffible, when the Journals of the two Houfes of
Parliament were confuited, to put filch an interpreta-
tion on the clank. It would be ken that the clank,
as it originally hood, warranted the interpretation
which the Noble Lord (Grenville) and others, had
put on it. They had accordingly removed that idea,
and had prevented, by the alteration which they had
I,:ggefted, any chance of milconception. • The Com-
mons, however, had difTcated from that amendment,
which unqueftionaltly they would not have done, had
they viewed the original claufe in the fame light as
Noble Lords would ierrefent, fo that the interpreta-
tion firh put on the claufe mull be confirmed rather
than removed.
The Lord CHANCELLOR and Lord GREN-
VILLE again explained, when the Houfe divided on
Lord Grenville's Motion to infift on the Amend-
ment.—Contents B—Non Contents 23.
A Meillige was ordered tobefent to the Commons in-
forming them, that the Lords had agreed to wave the
, amendments from which the Commons had diffented.
