AU Mangers being ftrlaly excluded, we are prevented from

encoded; however, we underfland that certain reildetions

dered to he taken into the cocideration of the Houre on Mon
day. On Which «calm their Lordihips are to be furtummed.
Aboutha/f pait three the proceedings of the Committee were

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
ILIRICURDINLIGHT PETITION.

Mr. C Donna a role to move that the Order for tak-
ing the above Petition into confide:redo° on the sad init. be dif-
charged, with the intention, he Paid, of afterwards moving
that the confuletadon of it be peftponed till the 34th of March.
When the Petition was fir* prekuted, there were but few other
Petitions before the Hoek., and ft was his with, at the time,
that the Petition Ovoid fiend for the 38th of March, but it
was than fuppokd that that would be too diftant a period. In-
deed, Gentlemen who were not acquainted with the mode m
which the Scotch Elections were carried on, could form but a
very inadequate Idea of the difficulties which attended th, 'we-
feat cafe; it was the conftant and molar praatee that the can-
didate who bad a majority of votes refilled the admiffion of
there that were not toppled to be in Ma interell ; and the
grounds of this refold could not be crammed into till after a
erooaderabie time. The cafes cooneded with the prefent Pc-
t itioo were now under the conaderation of the Court of &llion,
and it was not carded that they could be decided on before
the lath of March; but the Houk mull be ft: Wilde that ft
woad be impoffible for the Committee to proceed without hay-
ing thek &tedious before them. He was well aware that a
asenpilance with his motion might be attended with fume lit-
, yet he ventured to hope that the nature and dr-
amatis= of the cafe would induce the Houk to overlook it.
The Hossourable Gentleman concluded with moving, that the
Order fur taking the Petition into confederation un the Isaiah!
might be difcharget
Mr. WILLIAM Duane. opprifed the motion. It was a dear
and acknowledged principle with the Houk, that the trial of
controverted Eiedions Scald take place as early as poffible -
and the Honourable Gendemaa had not lardy made ow a cafe
that &Quid induce: them to depart from it. Notices had already
bees given to the otiose*, who were to appear in behalf of the
fitting Member, and counter notices could not reach them be-
fore the igth or tiitli hilt. &fides, It was well known that
Courts of Judicature were flow in their proceedings, and be did
nut believe that in Scotland they ufed more difpatch than (*-
where. It was therefore very d.iubtful that the cafes alluded
to would be decided by the rub of March. To what inenn-
wsicnee therefore would not the fitting Member be put ; while
loathing might be gained by wafting till the it.th of March. li'
whatever light be viewed the motion, he could not conceive
that it would be entertained by the Houk.
General Mast could not fee why the Petitioners had
air (nought forward this matter fooner. At prefent an ae-
quidcence in the motion would needfully etpok the living
Member to very great inconvenience and (-spruce: nay, it
would be imp able for rnaby of hit witneffes to Lrend—few it
mould be recolletted that they were not likely to travel in mail
eosehes.hut in the manner molt fuitable to their CirclLAMlalmrs
Mr. C. Du no ill nl•fervcd, to reply, that whatever aMitional
tapence ought attend the delay would be cheerfully defrayed
by the Petitioner.
Alter a few words in explanation from General Nfaitland„ the
'gen um was put on the mocks, and the Houk divided—For
it, 44—Ae‘in ft It. 12—Majorty agaioft it. all.
