HOUSE OF LORDS.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6.

Their lordships met to-day at half-past two o'clock, when the
claims of Lords Leitrim and Dillon to vote for Irish Represen-
tative Peers were considered in a Committee of Privileges, and
allowed.

At rive o'clock the house resumed, when Mr. Preston, from
the East India House, appeared at the bar, and presented an
account of the pensions granted during the past year.
The Marquess of WESTMINSTER presented a petition from
Kettering, praying for the better observance of the Lord's Day.
Lord SUFFIELD presented petitions against slavery, from
Weybridge, in Cornwall, and three parishes in Wexford. He
felt it necessary to state that he had a great many petitions to
the same effect in his possession, and the reason why he had
not pressed them upon the house was, that it was understood
Government had a measure in preparation on the subject, which
rumour said would be satisfactory. He, therefore, did not wish
to embarrass' the Government.

Lord KING presented a petition from two parishes in-Wex-
ford, against the Irish Coercive Bill, and one from the same
paces against tithes.
'I" he house then adjourned.

Mr. STRICKLAND brought up the report of the committee on
the York and Scarborough (recommitted) Road Bill.
Mr. WILSON PATTEN brought up the report of the committee
on the Wendover Road Bill. Amendments read a second time.

THE LIVERPOOL BRAZILIAN ASSOCIATION PETITION

LorcISANooN said he had to present a petition on a subject of
much importance to th 6 commercial interests of the country,
from • the Merchants of Liverpool. In accordance with the
objections which had been made on the subject of presenting
petitions, he should not detain the house with any prefatory
remarks, but he could not permit himself to present the petition
without making the house sully acquainted with its contents.
The noble lord having read the petition,
Mr. EWART said this was a subject of the deepest interest to
his constituents. It was one which involved the consideration
of. an extension of our foreign trade, and the employment of
British capital. It was so fully proved in the petition that the
amount ot our foreign trade wouid be greatly extended if proper
protection were afforded it, that he would not dwell at any
length upon that subject. tie was sorry that the extent of the
experiments which had been conducted under the auspices of
the Government had not been such as to liberate so important a
branch of our foreign trade from the fetters which had hitherto
bound it. The French Government were already taking mea-
sures that would have the effect of greatly extending the trade
in,refined sugars, and he trusted that this country would not be
bebiud them, but that his Majesty's Ministers, whom he knew
to be inclined to liberal measures, would speedily remedy the
evils of which the petitioners complained.
Mr. STRICKLAND was anxious to say a fcw words upon this
subject, and, in his opinion, he could say nothing stronger
than this, that while this country was sending out nearly
three millions a year, our ships were returning home empty,
thereby giving a monopoly to the colonists, without at the
same time doing any benefit to this country. In his opinion, it
would be easy to adopt some means by which Brazilian sugar
might be imported into.this country, to be refined for exporta-
tion, thereby giving employment to the capital and workmen
of this country, without in the least iutrenching upon the
rights which these monopolists at present enjoyed.
Mr. POULETT TtiomSoN said he would detain the house for a
very short time; but he was anxious to say only a very few
words upon the subject in consequence of the petition presented
by his noble friend. He need scarcely say, that the question
had received the very anxious consideration of government for
a long time. It was not because the government were not
most anxious to afford the petitioners the relief they prayed for,
but because it was at present impossible for the government to
introduce a measure for that purpose. Honourable gentlemen
who were members of the last Parliament, would remember the
anxiety which the government' showed to continue to admit fo-
reign sugar for the purpose of being refined in this country.
Inquiries had been instituted, and experiments tried, but such
progress had not been made in them as to allow him at present
to give an opinion upon the subject. A considerable bounty
was given to the West India sugar by the refining. act, but he
did not believe that it was so much as eight shillings, as men-
tioned iu the petition. Ile thought it would be utterly impos•
sible for thiS country—whatever it might do for its own colo-
nies—it was not right that it should be called upon to give a
bounty upon foreign sugars, in order that foreigners might be
enabled to use relined sugar at the expense of those colonies.
A plan might be devised—a
.plan which he was anxious to see
in operation—by which foreign sugar might be allowed to be
imported into this country, and refined actually under bond.
Unless some such principle as this were adopted, it would be
impossible, he feared, to afford any relief. Unfortunately, the
refiners were of opinion, that such a plan as he now proposed
would afford them no relief, and that they would reap no ad-
vantage from it unless they were allowed to mix the sugars,
which could not possibly be done. He could assure his noble
friend in the house, that if any plan could be suggested, whereby
the refining of foreign sugars might be confined to this country
without hurting the revenue, it would receive the utmost at-
tention of government. He considered that what had been
stated about the Brazilian trade ought to be taken into consi-
deration by those who harped upon the subject of free trade.
In Brazil they saw a country which took from them almost all
of their manufactures, and from which they refused to take
anything at all. Those hon. gentlemen ought to bear in mind,
that reciprocity meant an advantage to both sides, and that it
was possible the Brazils might, at a future day, turn the tables
upon this country.
Mr. GEORGE 'WILLIAM. WOOD •would trespass but a very
short time upon the house, but he hoped. that as this question
was very interesting to that part of the country which he repre-
sented, he should be allowed to say a few words. He was sorry
to hear from the right hon. gentleman that there was no present
intention of. granting the relief prayed for. He trusted that the
subject would continue to receive the best attention of his Ma-
besty's Government, and that in a very short time they would
e prepared with a measure such as would give satisfaction to
all parties.
An hon. MEMBER said that he should not have risen had it
not been for the importance of the petition to the commercial
and the shipping interests of the country. He thought that
some of the noble lord's observations were very much exagger-
ated. Instead of an increase of the number of sugar refiners,
they had decreased from 216 to 67: The number of vessels en-
.gaged in that trade during the last year had decreased also.
.Fitly-one vessels which had sailed from Liverpool to Rio
Janeiro, could obtain no return cargoes. He entreated the
earnest and serious attention of every member to the statements
of the petition, which embraced joints of such vast importance.
Another hon. MEMBE R said, that he bad also several similar
petitions to present. It appeared to him that means should be
given to facilitate the refining of foreign sugar in this country,
on fair and emitable terms, both for the, sake of the shipping
and commercial interests of the country. Means should be
given of refining sugars in bond, and if that could not be done,
some other course ought to be resorted to; otherwise the inter-
change between this and foreign countries would be put a stop
to, and this country would be unable to preserve those advan-
tages in trade it had hitherto posiessed, and which it had lost,
by the bill not having been renewed.
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL trusted that hon. members would
not consider it presumptuous on his part, if he reminded the
house of the understanding that existed with reference to pre-
senting petitions. (Hear, hear.) He had attended there morn-
ing after morning to present petitions, which his constituents
were anxious he should. present, but he had not been able to do
so in consequence of the discussions that took place on the pre-
sentation of almost every petition.
Mr. A. JOHNSTON saia, that should ministers introduce a bill
for the importation of Brazil sugar, he should, together with
several other members, give them his most hearty support.

LIVERPOOL DISFRANCHISEMENT PETITION.

Lord SANDON wished to present a petition upon a subject
upon which, as it was to come before the house this evening,
he should not trouble the house, at any greatlength. It
was signed by every member of the committee who did him
the honour to conduct his late election, and they complained
of the gross misstatements which had been made in a pe-
tition presented on a 'former evening and upon other occa-
sions, that briber), and- corruption had been practised at the
late election at Liverpool. They stated, that they had been
active supporters of him, (Lord Sandon,) and they were anxious
to show, that no one person had been induced to vote by bribery,
treating, or any other than constitutional means. ( Hear, hear.)
The petition afforded a complete proof that no bribery to any
extent, (hear,) that no bribery of which they were cognizant,
had been practised to procure his return.
Mr. BENETT had not, on any former occasion, made a charge
against the gentlemen who signed that petition. (Hear, hear.)
His charge was generally, that bribery had been practised at
the elections at Liverpool, even up to the last election. He
was anxious that a committee should be appointed to inquire
into the charges that had been made, when it would be seen by
whom the system of bribery had been practised. (Hear, hear.)

He had reason to believe, that the committee would be griljr
for he had certainly made some very strong assertions. .00
Mr. SHELL begged to ask the noble lord if the petit'
courted investigation ? (Hear, hear.) A tYI
Lord SANDON answered, as far as we could understan7o
one or more of the petitioners admitted to him that he °.4
had formerly been engaged in bribery. They aeknoWliel
themselves as having formerly been sinners, but they ok
that any corruption brad been practised during the last ele,„k,
He had never denied that bribery had formerly been pracwlll

and say whether, under such circumstances, evidence COw"1111
given to the allegations againSt the freemen of LiverpooLio'
would take that opportunity of presenting another pet or
signed, in fifty-three hoUrs by above seven thousand fourbilio,
Bred persons, comprising. most of the wealth and respectad
of the place. When the petition from Liverpool, sig'neffe,
three thousand three hundred persons; which charged th!eotr
men of that place with bribery and corruption, was pre: 40
by the hon. member for "Wiltshire, he took occasion too1);id
that it comprised all the respectable and disinterested P?ap,
of the inhabitants. Now the whole number of freemen (I', 01,
at present kxpeed three thousand six hundred, which
one-half of '&e humber of names signed to the petition Et
he (Lord Sandon) held in his hand. r He had yet to lealettl
any. charge of extraordinary corruption could be all
against the freemen of Liverpool. It' the proposed ineas ti°
the hon. member for Wiltshire were carried into elle' Os
whole amount of disfranchisement would be but betweell, foti
and two thousand. It had been the practice in that I-101V,
many years, to make allegations affecting a mode—the o.,oe''
obtaining signatures to petitions which were numerouslY''''erif
That occasional delinquences would occur from the inten9
zeal of some parties employed in witnessing the signatittlefoi
petitions he was not prepared to say. (Hear, hear.) ,P,frof
instructed to say that, to the petition praying for the
chisement of the freemen of Liverpool, which had bee%ll
sented by the lion. member forWiltshire, some individualol
generally signed five or six names, and passengers
ut steam-boats from the 'sister isle were invited to sian'
did sign, that petition upon an assurance that their 00t14,
h ,usekeepers was of no consequence. The petition licofe
pr:sented to the House, he could take upon him to saY ,
s anted the true feeling of the inhabitants of Liverpool. ,
eve
Mr. Strum would ask if the petition for the disfranchisor
of the fr..!emen of Liverpool did not contain a prayer mr
quiry ?
Lord SANDON admitted that it contained a prayer fL'ilr i
gl
priory ; but to countenance such a measure, after so I°olo
lapse of time, would,be to put every constituency in the co
di
under the influence of dominant factions.
Mr. LwAieT, as his election was alluded to in the pr.°9
measure of the member for Wiltshire, should consider
consistent with propriety not to take any part in the disc,etotr
Ile should leave it in the hands of hon. members, and
opinion of the house.

would Mr. WAsoN read to the house some statements, by s%
would appear that several boys belonging, to charity-sebeei,
signed the petition presented by the noble lord, and had IA
the occupations of their fathers against them. Petition' 't

servations relative to alleged corruption in the municiP3A
tions of Liverpool, and read pari of a presentment of the Arie
jury on that subject, and on the corruption existing "
elections for members of Parliament.

Mr. SPEAKER was not surprised, and it was not uraiikle

Mr. GLADSTONE stated, that from the letter he had ,reid

Wilit.LlAms said it was impoppssible to knoc.fel
say upon the petition unless it was read. If it contefto
application for an inquiry then he would have no inn'oel
on the subject. This he knew, that it contained the °to
many individuals who had been for 30 years & upwarty::o
