to exceed _ The provisions of it, bow, err, were
limited to tenements under 211!. yearly rent ; and the
present Bill was intended to ext.ind its beneficial upe,
ration to tenements under the yearly rent of 59/. His

',pante causes tried amounted tu1.905, out of which,

stymie' .41 with any. Ile then stated. that the Bill

CO3IIII.IINT AtIAINST A EWSPAPER.—Mr.
MARI im (of thilway) said he begged leave to call the
attention of the House for a few moments to a sub-
ject in which he was himself concerned. Au unwar-
rantable liberty had been taken with him in two of the
daily papers, in the report which thet gave of what
he bad said during the debate on Monday ',vesting.
One of them (The Morning Herald) had n pres•ated.
bite in a must ridicule's light ; for it usaJe him say what
would be most absurd and nnwarrantatle in him if he
had said it—that it was an intinite aolvantage to the
Ideeen to be the accused, and not the accuser. And then
the reporter added, as an observation of his own, that,
at this expression, the House burst out into a roar of
laughter. He never said any such thing as what was
here imputed to him ; what he did say was,• that if
any person was sabjected to the ordeal of an inquiry,
such person had the /Misstep. of Wine a defendant,
rather than by being as accuser. He did not mean,
on this occasion, to submit any motion to the House ;
Ise noticed the circumstance in the hope, that, if his
speeches were hereafter to be reported, they 'mild be
given correctly ; indeed he shoald think it an honour
dune him if his name were sever mentioned in any of
the reports. What he now said was intended merely
us a warning.
