NAPLES.
GitEY said, that some days ago he had
,„ „mire of a motion on which their Lordships
summoned for to-morrow. Not having re-
Al a satisfactory answer to the questions which
!hen put, he was desirous now again to require
,rm.tion before he determined finally to act upon
notice. He wished to know whether we were
,ll} at war with Naples—whether any commu-
jioos would be made from the Crown to Parlia-
it on the subject—and whether any negociatiorm
• now carrying on with that country from which
might hope for the return of peace?
'he Earl of LIVERPOOL said, he had no diffi.
tr in informing the Noble Lord, that our rein..
ti ith Naples depended on the movements of
rat. in consequence of the advance of Murat
t.c North of Italy, Lord Wm. Beittinck had
It him notice that he would consider any hostili-
(won his part against the Allies, as a breach of
Jimi.tice between the two countries. He could
as to the fact of any hostilities hatieg
~, place between his Majesty's troops and those
Hides: Neither was he aware that any negocie•
s were now going on that could render the mo-,
alluded to by .the Nobly Lord in any measure
ttielit.

Vol GREY observed, that according to his con.
(ion of what had fallen from the Noble Lord,
,hties were now to be considered as revived, and
country as in a state of war with the Govern.
tof Naples. The regular way of communicat.
tact of this nature was by message from thi
ern ; he therefore wished to know, whether such
fame, was in contemplation

'hp E.lrl of LI VER FOOL stated, that he was not
-iiseil to niake such a communication at pre.
nor could he give any answer on the subject

vl GREY thought such a coarse of proceeding
extraordinary ; however, as he could not suc.-
in obtaining ac/ answer, he should feel it his
to bring forward his motion.
In moticir of the Marquis of LANSDOWNE,
.:reonfl reading of the Habeas Corpus Amend-
' Bill was postponed till to-morrow seinuight.
GAOI. FEES RILL
le Rouse went into a Committee on the Gaol
Bill.
rd ELLENBOROUG II proposed a new clause,
le purpose of guarding the Sheriff against certain
difficulties, in which he ►could be placed by the
roents of the Bill as it stood. The clause was
,eod to.

lc Marquis of BUCKINGHAM took that op.
!city of expressing his wish that the operation of
Ahnoid be extended as generally as possible.
rderatood that a Committee had been appoint.
the House of Commons to enquire in"the state

motion would be for a message to the Commons
'tat ffect.

*LORD CHANCELLOR. thought the best
of proceeding under the difficulties of the case,
Id be to have two distinct Bills. The City of
ion had proved the other day, at their Lord-
liar, that it contributed the sum of 15,0001.
it t the support of the prisoners ; they should
I.ore, be cautious of any measure that might
the hand of charity, or, by interfering with
icilities of changing from one prison to another,
It have the effect of crowding the City prisons.—
, he thought, would be beet provided against
the introduction of two separate Bills.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE allowed that
• objects should be kept in view, and thought
he Bill in question would be a great benefit to the
(if London, as it had already proved to several
ies.

'he House then resumed, and the Report was or-
' to be received to.rn nrow.—Adjourned.

he committed on Wednesday.
INSOLVENT ORBTOTIS' BILL.
Serjeant BEST moved the Order of the Day
he House resolving into a Committee on the lu-
!lit Debtors' Bill.
r. HORNER said, that the Bill now before the
;P was ally thing but the Bill which the lion.
Learned !Gentleman (Mr. Serjeant Best) had
ibed, when he obtained leave of the House to
it in. lie understood from the Hon. and
'ned Gentleman since, however, that two of the
material clauses had been omitted. As it was

rial that the measure should come complete be-
the House, in a pen fect form, antecedent to their
le called upon to deliver their opinion upon it,
hought in the present instance an unfair advan-
had been gained by obiaiuing the consent to the
nd reading of a Bill, the essence of which was
lbsequently to he changed. With these feelings, as
'1 as from an insuperableobjection to the preamble,
thould object to the House resolving into the
imittee.

r. ABERCROMBIE thought that the vital
is of the House had been evaded, by the manner
,hich this Bill had been passed through the se-
. and most material stage. Under these circum-
laces, he thought the lion. and Learned Gentle-
ought to withdraw the Bill altogether, and bring
again, in-a complete shape, so that the House
be able to consider it in its perfect bearings.
