Commons, on the 10Th inst, Mr.. HUT moved a
resolution declaring it expedient to discontinue the
practice Of authori zing men.of. war to visit and
search vessels under foreign flags. with the view
of suppressing the slave trade. He commended
that England ought to abandon her futile efforts
on the Coast of Africa. The motion was seconded

lish a universal system of piracy on the African
Coast. lie then urged the continuance of the
