ASSESSED TAXES.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
wished that •n Hon. liaionet opposite (sir M. W.
Ridley) would postpone his motif. relative to the
Assessed Tales that stood for tomorrow, till after
the Holidays.
Sir M. RIDLEY had no objection to postpone
his motion. Its object was, that any person, by add.
lag 5 per cent. to the Assessment paid by hint on the
sth of April, 1818, should be eaeopt from all sir.
charge, sod all farther enquiry.

there would be mesh dilically in carrying it into

Lord CASTI.F.RF.AGH role to move the second
reading of the BM for Claims on France. It was
his object to pot the parties in information of tbe
objects of the , to pass it thtough the COQ.
sebum nn to•mnrrowt and their to have it reprinted
with It amendments, deferring the consideration of
the Report until after the MIS.. The whole sem.
her of these claimants amounted to 10413 The assomst
of claims was shout two hundred million of Hares, or
'about eight millions stetting. One third of t►ese
Maims bad been adjudicated, end were in the cows*
of payment. The claims first takes into consider..
lion were those that admitted of the greatest facility
of proof. There was no et►er ground of preference
*dogged with respect to the description of lb. classes
of claimants. The Commissioners bad not alone act.
ad in that capacity, in any instances they seemed
themselves as the agents of the British damsels, in
esodeavourlng to obtain for them, out of the Freed
Oakes, the necessary proofs. The anteent of the
commercial claim., after the &deviant which he un-
derstood they themselves had agreed to admit, did
not amount to more than ten millioas of Hares. He
should have no abjection to intrados" a proelsion its
the Bill, allowing a power of appeal, but it meat also
be to a (testified mow, and ow sec► special points
as hie Majesty in Council should regulate. There
cool/ be no permission to beer evidence a second
lime. as that would tend to endless discussion. With
respect to the dispesitioe of this surplus, after the
payment of all the adjudicated claims, that was a pre-
sour. wittiest, sod would better be deferred esti!
I the fact was aseettsleed.

The BM wee thin reed a secood time, and order-
ed to be committed temoorrow.
