IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS—Tnotsoar.
The transfer of Securities (Scotland) Bill was read a
third time and passed.

The

Brimstone Duties Drawback Bill was read a se-

toad time, and committed for Monday.
The Assessed Taxes Bill was read a second time. ,
• The Post-horse farming Duties Bill went through a
4". Committee.—Report on Monday.
Mr. DENMAN presented a petition most nnmeronsly
• el‘ned, from Liverpool, praying the House to take the
b.e ile of striking Grand Juries nto their consideration,
• and reform it. The petitioners particularly complained
Sgrinst the power which the Sheriffs possessed. of
ckbosing certain persons in a coujr4y, and returning
them repeatedly to serve, to the exclusion of all others.
They suggested that the right of serving on Juries
should be tirade common to all. They also alluded to
the outrage at Manchester, and they ascribed the imptt-
sky with which the actors in that affair escaped to the
imperfect and partial made in which the Juries were
Hoorn. They expressed their,gratitude to the Home
for the proceeding. which they hail adopted, in inpriring,
into the condort of the Slietiff of Dublin, anti privet
them to torn their attention in the same %%Iry to the Mode
in which justice was adminiiitered is this country.
Mr. B. WILBitAItA NI defended the system, and eon.
• tended that the constitutional mode was to leave the
choice of the (Irani! Jury to the Sheriff.
Lord S rAN LEY said that the Grand .furies of Lan-
essidre were chasen as impartially as those of any other
rostity in Enel •nil. He admitte I, however, that there
were items in the system which called for reform.
Mr. H. PHILLIPS sepported the petition, and c in-
. tended that tl.e system loudly ri,illeil for reform. It
not true that the Grind Juries Jcete chosen tr-neraliv,
front aitionget that class of tern who were qualifi-d to iift
nmitt them. It never limper:rot that six persons were

against the possibility of such an abuse,

Fieemagons of Ireland, praptig that they might be ea.

cret Societies i a Ireland.
Mr. ABERCROMBY said, that if any exceptions were
made, the object of the Bill would be defeated,
The petition was !did on the table.
Lord 'PALMERSTON presented a petition froth the
Rev. 111.1)yain, against the abolition of 'Atwell la the
West Imam—LW on the table.
I. PHILLIMORE presented a petition from certain
Roman Catholics of England, praying that they might
not be obliged to have their marriages celebrated-by I
clegywan of the Established Church, after they bad beet
eolonsaised by clergymen of their own pbewitasioaas
'could not, however, soggest to the Noble Lord (Nugent)
to Introduce the 'matter into his Bill, lest it might be pre-
judicial to tie success of that measure.
Lord NUB ENT stiti.he felt the hardship, but did not
think it came properly within the operation of his Bill.
Kite was permitted to pass the Bill through a second
reading now, he would take care that sufficient notice
should be given before it was committed.

Mr. MONCK strongly urged the necessity of making
an alteration in the state of the law with respect to the
marriages.
The 'petition was laid on the table and ordered to be
printed.
Sir J. MACINTOSH presented. a petition from the
Churchwardens, Guardians, and Overseers of the Poor in
the Palish of St. Luke, in the County of Middlesex, stet-
' ing theta liege number of the inhabitants of that parish
were Irish Roman Catholics : that the law respecting the
mariisge of Catholics in this country had produced a
train of the greatest evils to the Catholics themselves,
and brought much inconvenience to the parish. In con-
sequence of those people omitting to have the ceremony
of marriage perfumed by a Protestant Clergyman, either
before or after it had been performed by a Catholic Cler-
gyman, their children were, in the eyes of the law, bas-
tards, mid at such became chargeable on the parish, al-
though the parents might he removed. All these anis-
fortiones, the detnoral!zation of the people themselves, and
the constant liability of the parish to be unjustly bur-
dened with the maintenance of children, could be done
away with by simply extending the same iednlgence in
the case of marriages, to Cathalies that were enjoyed by
Jews and Quakers. In -presenting. this antuerons and
respertably signed -petition, he most say that be agreed
in every thing that had fillen from his Honourable and
Learned Friend near him (Dr,Phillimore), except in the
opinion that a Bill so remedy the evil here complained
of, could not meet with the concurrence of Pirliametit.
Mr. M. A. TAYLOR thought that* Bill of this tia.
tore was absolutely necessary. But he dished it to be
understood, that great blame was imputable to the Cath-
olic Clergy of the metropolis, who were in
.general well-
edocated men, and is hose duty it was to impress upon
the hp Ties who were to be married the necessity othaving
the cerefflony performed tsra 'Clergyman of the Ram-
hlished Church. He knew that in many parte of the
country the Catholic Clergy, aware of the importance of
complying with the law, unit mile enjoined it on their
parishioners before they performed the ceremony.
Dr. PHI LLIM ORE said he hail been misunderstood
by his Honourable and Learned Friend. Ile had stated
that some years ago he had drawn up a Bill to the effect
now called for, but nn sounding the opinions of many
members. he thought it hopeless to endeavour to carry It
then. Ite had also lately recommended his Noble Friend
(Lntd Nugent) not to meddle with that point in his
sill, lent he should endanger the successor the whole.
Mr. BENNET .said he wished that the Hon. and
Learned Gentleman would lose no time in bringing in
the Bill, lie stated, he had drawn up, but ndt of
fcred to the House. Never before, he would venture to
say, in any Christian country—never in any part of the
world pretending to the character of civilization, did
such a state of things exist as bail been described in this
petition. If there were any men in that House so low in
in ellect, so bereft of all decent f-eliog, so worthy or an
odious name, which no Gentleman could with propriety
repeat, as to say openly that this was a state of things
which ought to be continued, he (Mr. Bennet) would
again pray his Honourable and Learned Friend to give
such a person the opportunity of exhibiting himself to
the world, to let the country see with admiring eyes the
sort of persons who were sent there sometimes to repre-
sent the people, and establish'the fact that in England,
which boasted of her superior lights and her advance-
nient in knowledge, there existed one—for he would fain
hope there would be found no more—one, who, as far as
hr was concerned, strove to bring disgrace on his coun-
try by advocating a system which was the shame and
dicirace of our Marriage Laws.—(Hear.) '
Mr. ELLIS (of Dublin) said he hoped that no time
would be lost in bringing' in the Bill.—(Hear.) He
felt it to be a duty at all times to do every thing that lay
within his power to remove the disabilities under which
Catholics labour, as far as he could, short of granting
them political power. It fell to his lot to vindicate the
Catholic Clergy against the imputation of blame which
had been thrown out by the Hon. Member opposite (Mr.
M. A. Taylor. The fact was, that these Clergy took an
oath to administer the sacraments of their Church ac-
cording to the rites and forms prescribed by that Church.
Marriage in their Church was a sacrament,and a Clergy-
man would be culpable according to his own opinions if '
ha-threw any obstacle, even though that obstacle should
he suggested by the state of the law, in the way of mar-
ria e. The case wes one of conscience witli the Cl..rgy-
man, and lie thought that no blame could attach to them
in this respect.
Mr. 'TAYLOR said lie hail stated that Catholic Cler-
gymen in the country did advise their parishioners to be
married first by a Protestant Clergyman.
Mr. J. P. ‘.iltA NT s aid he h eurd the conversation which
limijost passed with great plasmic. ale wished that
the case of the Catholic Clergy in Scotland might be
considered b- fore any Bill oats brought in. The noir-
rieges of Catholics by Catholic Clergymen in Scotland
•ai valid. But thong's the marriage was valid, the
Prittat was by law subject to heavy penalties. It was his
ioitotte to hate snecesr,fully defended a Priest, who was
indicted under this law in the Court of Justiciary for
poet:orating this ceremony. He hoped shat this law
woitld not he overlooked by the framer of the Bill which
he hop. d would be shortly brought in favour of the Ca-
tholics of this country.
Mr. M. A.-TA V LOR said lie was not aware that the
!cows-letter. of the Priest was violated in recommending
pat i,s to be. married, first by a Protestant Clerg ratan.
All he could say was, that if they abstained front the rc-
I commendation on that account, their consciences iv re

yen tender, whilst those of the Priests in the CO"b7
allot possess Issry rations ones.
Pr. PHILLI MORE said, the fact wee, that tke Cktholip
• ofthe-parish of 81. Lake were mostly Irish Calli_„ a.,°"*.
ware !accustomed to see the ceremony performw
metetry by toe sPrieetalmne. which there wu legsZranilln_

The Petition was tejd on the table, and ordered to r.

Sir J. MACINTOSH presented a petition from Kamm-
borough against the Customs Consolidating Bill.
• Mr. HUME said that praise was due to the Govirement,
for complying with the reasonable request which was made
or them, to iht an ad valorem duty on Hemp.
M. S. RICK said that he was surprised to fed that the
duty on Flax sad Yaro In Ireland was retained, contrary to
to a pledge.
Mr. C. GRANT said that it was a mistake in the DW, and
would be corrected.
The petition was laid on the table.
PRINCESS OLIVIA.

forealhia lady on the gad of March should be printed. Hl'
itii=lblit Ministers would have Cr. this examined into

o the family. that Le-world do all is his purer to ow

Wednesday next, move thatthe petition be referred to a Se-

Mr. HUME presented • petition from Thos. Ilodgson, a
ship-owner of the Port of London. complaining of the pres-
sure of the ddty on hemp and other articles. by means of
which the ship-owners of this country wereuot able to com-
pete with those of other countries.
Mr. ROBERTSON showed how lejerionsly the Tonnage
fluty operated against the Shipping interest of this eotiatry.
If these evils were sot removed, the ship-owners would ul-
timately be raised.
Mr. MABERLY said,if the Right Hon. Gentleman consi-
dered and reduced the duty, a great quantity of hemp would
be imported iota this solaotrfr
The petition waster:steed and laid on the table.
Mr. HUME moved/Or Returns of the number of Prose-
cutions institoted hi. the Court of Exchequer in Scotland,
for breaches of the Modes Laws.—Ordered to be printed.
Mr. ELLIS presented a petition from the Brewers of
Delano, Waterford, mad Cork, against the proposed re-
'auction or the Duty on Spirits in Ireland. The Hon.
Member said that- if the duty were lowered it would *sa-
ble the peasantry to pr..eure *irks with greater facility,
which would ten I to demoralise the habits of the people. On
farmer occasions when the duty'wes lowered, it was found to
decrease the 9uantity of malt used ill brewing, by which, not
the Revenue, but the Agricultural interest suffered. This
Was a subject involving deep interests, and he eslled
, upon the Howls to take It into its serious consideration.
After a few words from Me. F. Lewis, Sir J. New.
port, Mr. C. Hutchloson, Mr. Grattan, Mr. S. Rice and Col-
Barry. the position was laid on the table.

motion to be resumed. . .
Mr. F. BU.::TON said that he would acquiesce on condi-

considered that 60,0001. would be adequate to the puts-
pose. Ile should therefore move, that a Committee he

ture at Bombay, and also the payment of certain pensions

Mr. BANKES, seu., said, that in the present state of

PitfUE

e'reeeeer
iMr. WODICHOUSE then rosy, and iftir some prefatory
teamtrita. said tbst the subject now before the House NM
, oneOf paramount insportenee to the cooutry at large. A
elleilliderable depression had taken place in the price of agri-
*Moral produce, which was generally and severely felt.
Judging from all past experience, he coed not look for env
thins like a permaoeney of relief, but he might be permitted
say that Le thought things were coming round to a mere
favourable state. It was said that he had expressed himself .
Lto
• advocate of en equitable adjustment. He was unwilliag
teeehtredebiesself in the discussion of public affairs, bat
eteceed as he was in that Bosse as the representative of le
large tied linportare body of miens, It was his duty to
state his oesinlois of enblie men and public measures; for it
was assured!' issposeible that those who sent Memberg ete
that House could know their real sentiments unless How
were thus developee. It was at a dinner given by so*"
gentlemen who were the supporters of the late Mr. Pat;
that he expressed en cpinion that if that great statesman
had lived to see the termination of the war, ace witemeed
the vast saentlees the country had made, he would be so
far impressed with our altered circumstauces, that m ithout
the intention of raising Ley one interest above anothe. )10
would see the influeoce wheel the National Del t hail left on
all property, and in consequ.oce desire to see an equitable
Ladjustment 'Meted.— (Hear, bear.) Every hour mined to
rinfirm him (Mr. Wodehouse) ie the correctness of cis °pi-
- en. A remedy of some kind or other might have been
adapted, Caller by a modilessiion of the currency, or by the
operation of a Property Tax. By the adoption of one or
both of these measures matters might so on well, but the re-
jection of one and the other had brought evils on thecounin ,cf
which the wisest men in it could not foresee the consequeur,s.
The Hon. Member then referred to the opinions of the late
Mr. Henry Thornton and of Mr. Huskisson as at variance ,
with the effects produced by the alteration of the currency.
Bat he celled upon lion. Members not to attach toeinselves
to the opinions of the late Mr. Horner, of the late Mr.
Thornton, or the late Lord Liverpool, wiMotit bearing has .
mind the altered circumstances of the country. Mr. Horner
would not In 1819 have held the same opinions test he held
in 1810. Therefore the Honourable Member (Mr. Western)
allele as well quote the opinions of a man who lived be-
fore the flood, and apply them to the present circumstances
as quote the opinions of Mr. Horner in such an alterea
state of thing. He had never thought that either the Right
Honourable Gentleman (Mr. Peel) or his opponents
were right in their conception of the work in which they
were engaged in liq 9. By too hasty an ackp•iob of the
measures proposed be the Hon. Member for Portarling-
ton, they haul brought calamities on the country of the
most disastrous nature, and it was their been-len ditty to
expiate their ccnduct. The llott.Member then proceeded
to comment on the opinions advanced by Mr. Ricardo in
1819, which he maintained sui:acqnent events ha I c. m-
pletelv refute& It was, he observed, quite ah.urd in that
Hon. Member to say that the differsace of value which
the alteration of the currency would Nrasion would b t
no more than four or five per cent.. Ttae present Lord
Liverpool had said that a man who went ?abroad at the
commencement of the war, and returned !veep the
peace was established, would find, as it were, f urw
creation. When Gentlemen argued respecting the t:-'
fects of tee improvements in machinery, they ought to
consider the cause* to which those improvements were
attributable. We inul expended ecwital of eoo,oofet (11..
and anticipated the resources of ages, hut accordinc to
eke doctrine of the Hon. Member for Portarlington thnt
was to have no effect whatever on the value of CJlll-
modifies ; it was certain that .Ir. Herne (not the 110.1.
Member for AberJeeue—a Leigh); held a contrary opi-
nion. He found it rated in' the Agricultural Report,
that the progress of industry in this country defe I all
Reiteration front precedent—His argument then wa-.
' Wald this happen without in extrailtdinty cause, !rear-
log always in mind the extraordinary operation of tax-
ation ? He found i' stated in a pamphlet written l.y
the late Mt. Henry Thornton. that the effects of coun'ry
hanks in circulating the capital of the country tendrAl
veryinuch to promote industry. The Hon. Member next
read an extract from floater Essays, showing that the
proportion which money bore to the price of goods.
served to fix the value of labour. He (Mr. Wodeliouse)
would ask Hon. Gentlemen to consider the extraordinary'
issue of money hail not the effect of superseding the
ordinary course of nature.—He would not taunt the
Hon. President of the Board of Trade (Mr. Huskisson)
with inconsistency, for it was impossible that a mail
should b.: expected to carry the same set r f opinions
with him to his grave. But when he found specula-
tive reasoning us..l in ref. rence to positive fa ts—
when he found the Right Hon. Genleman telling: the '
country at one time, that i. was impassible we c u d :e-
turn to the prices that existed before the war— when he
found him going still further, and saying, let the law rico
what it might, it would be impossible that the price of
bread could be double what it then was ; hr (Mr. Wode-
house would put it to his sense as a man, and to his re-
putation as a statesman, whether language like that was
meant to be sound policy at one time, and nothing more
than a combinrian of mere expletives at another?—
(Hear, hear.) Must not such language be quite enig-
matical to ordinary understandings ? The Honourable
Member cited the opinions of Mr,Locke in his letters
to Lord Somers.. The kennine simplicity and fosse of
Mr. L cke's arguments were worthy of admiration, al-
tho ugh he did not know that if Mr. Locke now lived, be
would reason in the same mintier. He was unwilling to
trouble the House at any length, but his object was to
establish the truth: He also referred the House to the
works of Mr. James and of Dr. Coppleston, and thought
the reasoning of the latter on the subject of the cur-
rency no better than nonsense, and his principles were
refined Jacobinisin. Ile believed the most obsequioas of
Queen Elizabeth's paramours could not pry lien .e mare
flattering compliment, titan the line which was said to
be inscribed on her tomb, " Moneta is imam)* valorem
reddiia," as if she had reduced the currency to its exact
value. But the value of the taxation of the country
was increased in kroportion to the alteration in hey lest
of the currency. That was a proposition which co
gentleman could deny. He believed that in passing the
Bill of 1819, all were mistaken in calk:filo' ng the pro •
bable variation in the currency. Still he thought seine •
mode might be found sufficient to remedy those thecae.-
nienccs by the adoption of a silver standard of currency.
Mr. JAM ES said he could .not pass by that opport if ty
of offering a few words to the House. lie was not ao
quainted with the opinions of 31r. Locke on the curt racy
nor with Mr. Hume's essay an money, but he had teat
the publications of his relative Mr. Henry James. Bat
he also read the essays of Mr. Cobbett, who hal tiirawe
more light on that subject than all the other pubis
writers put together. lie thought that liovernni ant wee
answerable for the conseqnences when it tampered with
the coin of the oil time, and allowed piper to be substi-
tuted for it. In fay° ir of the Bank the Govern vent hail
tampered with the men y circulation to the pule ice of
the country. Time Government haul aided the Bine ill Colli-
mating a gross fraud on its creditors in the 144 instance.
The property of the cu twit ry was afterwards injured ice
withdrawing the paper to re nine cash payments, anti At
was sow sunk to an alarming degree. 1 bat error having
been commit ed by the (Internment, the only remedy kit
in their hands was a rectification of con•ractt, and parti-
cularly in regard of the public debt, in which a larger re-
duction should be made.
