pairs, Re.
The Airmails of !tridents of Customs in Ireland, presented
this hessian, were, out the motion of Mr. BAN K ES, referred
la the Committee on Pubic Expenditure.
PLACES IN REVERSION.
Mr. BANK ES, iu rising to bring forward the
Muiieti of which he had given notico, should not
have thought that it would have met any more op.
position than the motion which had just been
nrixd to. Bat as from what had fallen from his
Ronuarable Friend on a former night, he could
culket that some opposition was iutcndtd to his
motion, before be proceeded to any observations
is support of it)• he begged te remind the House
of the manner 111 Whack it Lad disposed of a simi.
hr motion out tbo 10th of August, 1807. Ile
therefire moved, that the Reselntiou of that date
should be real.
[The Resolution was then read by the Clerk, as
it seas recorded to have passim! nernine contral.
aisle—" That an humble Address be presented
to his Majesty, praying that be would be gracious.
ly pleased nut iu grant may places in Reversiou, or
. to two or more persons with right of survivor.
ship, until six weeks after the then next Session
of P•irliamerii."]
The Resolution he hail to propose in this in.
stooge was precisely the same with that which had
been road from the Journals; and he should leave
it to his Right Hoa. Friend, and to those Gentle.
men who supported or agreed to the former, to
shew what distinction there was between it,and the
Resolution now proposed. A Committee had
been appointed to examine the Lords' Journals for
any proceeding respecting a Bill fur preventing
the granting Places iu Reversion, lately sent up
from that (louse. The Committee had performed
that duty, but found no proceedings upon the
Journals of the House of Lords upon the subject
of Reversions. There appeared, indeed, two
proceedings with respect to Bills for prevailing
the granting of Places in Reversion—one, she Bill
lately seat up from that Hours; the other, a Bill
which had been introduced into the House of
Lords, and was precisely the same as a Bill which
bad passed that House in a former Session without
a dissenting voice. Both these Bills had, as ap.
pared, been negatived en the second reading ;
but the Committee could discover no trace on their
Journals of the grounds upon which the house of
Lords was induced not to pass either. This led
the Committee to consider what could have been
the resume which influenced the decision of the
Moose of Lords, and in So doing, thtry were left
altogether to conjecture. It occurred to him that
it might have entered into the head of some acute
aid cavilling special pleader, that it was a solid ob.
jection to the Bill, that it was to tender perpetual
a Bill for suspending the power of granting places
in reversion. Though he could out perceive the
distinction, yet there might be persons who were
fend of perplexity, and dealt in difficulties, whose
minds were nut only capable of conceiving, but
of maintaining such an absurd and ineomprchensi.
Isle quibble. To him it appeared, that, if the
Act for rendering perpetual the Suspending Act
bad passed, it would have been iusposeible for the
practice to have bees renewed. That, according,
to any wend principle of reasoning, would has
bees the operation of the measure. Could any
lase possibly /apps that the Bill would not have
Imes a perpetual prohibitory measure ? At least,
those who opposed the principle could not enter.
lain a contrary opinion ; because, if they bad
say 1.114141g0n upon the subject, it must he that
dig were afraid it would fully accomplish Its ob.
