SUMNER would not oppose the petition ; but the invention now under consideration, at Woolwich, was superior in his opinion. Petition read and ordered to lie on the table. The Leather Duties Reduction Bill wriN read a second lime, and (livered to be committed for Thursday. The Loan Bill ; the 5 per Cents. ; sad the Charge of Pen sions, were severally reported, and ordered to he read a third time to•morrow.

Reams ERS . -GENERAI..—The Receivers'-General Bill went into a committee. A good deal of conversation took place on various of the clauses. in which Mr. Hume, Mr. Lushingtom, &r. took part. Mr. HOME was particularly against that clause which pro posed to form as aggregate fund to defray aliowances In such Individuals as might he removed, and as might have hail sala ries from 111 to 6001. Ile contended that the country receipts _ht be wade through the excise officers. Mr. LESIIINGTON said, he had no objection to acquiesce in many of the suggested alterations. if the principle of the excise system of securities was adopted, there would not be such ample securities ; there were securities now received from the receivers to the amount of sixteen millions. Mr. HUME said this was no objection. The securities were so enormous, that they deterred proper iudividuals frost be coming receivers. As to the tax, hoard, lie contended, that expensive as it was, it was wholly useless. Time f Receiver General might he done without, in his opinion ; but he bowed to the report of the committee that bad been instituted on this subject. Sir J. NEWPORT stated, that the office of Receiver General had been abolished in Ireland ; lime pit merits were made direct to the Bank in Ireland. Why could not similar arraogeauvots be mane in England. Mr. C. LONG spoke in favour of the bill in its present shape. After *nine further remasks, the several clauses, with some ♦erbal alterations, were agreed to. Mir telt or Pitts im.osi..—Mr. W. COURTEN AY then rose to plain of a breach of privilege. The transaction arose out of Mr Altercronihy's motion respecting the Lord Advocate's and the Government' • conduct towards the public press; the prosecution of Mr. Stuart, Borthwich, the printer, &c. The first breach of privilege was contained in the letter of Mr. Hope, Advocate Depute, who replied to Mr. Aliercrotuby's remarks about the trial of Mr. Stuart, charging time inferences drawn by Mr. A. from the abandonment of the trial of Borthwick to be •awarantalde, &c. The expressions used were very strong, and such as interfered with the freedom of debate, and the pri vileges of members ; besides they were calculated to lead the parties into personal contact. Ile therefore moved that certain passages of Mr. Hope's letter were• trenches of the.privilege of that house ; and that Mr. Hope do atteud the bar of that house mm Wednesday next. Considerable conversation arose as to the authorship, and and whether it would nut be better to allow time, as time ;arty might have something to say in vindication, Mr. Wynn, Mr. Brougham, taking part in it ; but eventually it was deemed that such postponemod was uunecessary, and Lord Binning ex pressed his belief that the whole of the letter was Mr. Hope's, and that Mr. H. would he prepared to acknowled g e whatever lave• might have done. 'I be passages were voted to lie in breach of the privileges of that House , and Mr. Hope was ordered to attend the bar to morrow se'nnight. Mr. W. COIIRTENAY was preceeding with a second com plaint against Mr. Menzies, also one of the Lord Advocate's Deputies, who has made a like charge against Mr. Abercromhy's statements and inferences, calling them wilful, false, and the like. Lord LONDONDERRY however thought, as the tendency of such letters could not he matter of question, as they were calculated to bring tho parties into personal contact, that it would he berowing in the House to order the attendance of Mr. Ahercrowhy in his place forthwith. This motion was agreed to, and the order war immediately made out for the attendance of Mr. Abercromby in his place ito that Ho u se forthwith. Mr. W. COURTENAY ttien submitted his motion against Mr. Menzies, which, after some conversation as to forms, was tweed to, and Mr. M. was also ordered to attend the bar to morrow sebinight. After these motions had been agreed to, the rnesstnger of the house (Mr. Spitler) returned and stated at the bar that he bad been to Mr. Aberertnithy'a house ; that Mr. A. was from home ; that he left home between t Aelt e and two ; and that it was believed he bad gone from town in a post chime towards Barnet. :icon COTTA GE TAX. —Lord A. HAMILTON afterward,' moved for leave to bring in a bill to repeal the Scotch Cottage Tax of 4e. ea. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed it on the emus& that the plans of the year had been submitted to be House sod agreed to ; that to 11(190 thin motion would tend to disturb existing arrangements ; and that it would he to courage partial taxation, an the Nentelt Cottage would be re• moved, while a similar tax remained in En.;land. Air. J. P. GRANT supported the motion. Mr. LOCK 11.1tcr took the view of the motion similar to what was expressed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Mr. HUME was in favour of the motion, becaloe be was persuaded that the moat effectual means (Smoking the %ulster' reduce the expenditure, was to limit the means. Lord A. HAMILTON then rose to propose a resolution for the roped of the house ditty of four shillings and sixpence on cottages in Scotland. under the value of sf. nutinully, The noble lord urged the necessity of this repeal, but un the sug gestion The CHANGELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, promised to give the subject lies consideration in the recess. Thee noble toed with the leave of the House, withdrew his motion. THEtURRF.NCY TUE COUNTRY.—Mr. WESTERN said he would nut, in the present state of the house, and .t so late • period of the evening press his resolutions on the subject, hut would postpone his nicotine till to-morrow, oral if it could net he Lin“eut,ntly Lreulit tut ward tin.o, fUtililJ 4.14 j. "it u - THE NATIONAL REGISTER The House then resolved itself again into a committee so the Receive General's Bill. Mr. HUME moved, as an amendment, that the salary to the tereit ers, aimuld in no case he lass than 3301. or more than 6041. including expellees ; as the clause stood in the Wll,llllOl. additional might be allowed for expellee., at the diszretton of lie tteasery. Alr. R. SMITH wished to know why the hon. gent. opposite (31r. Etishingtun) had not, in the cotadruction of the bill before the house, redeemed his own idedAe, wid followed eip the reemumentlation of the committee. The commute, had di tided upon one point only—whether the salary, expenees in- , eluded, should be With a year, or 711+o1. a year ; and on that point the lion gent. who took the part of Government in the corn mitte had been left iu a minority. The plan prupomed by the committee had been not only practieal.le, but ads isealtle. Mr. 11. GURNEY thought that 4301. a year would not always be sufficient. There weir many Gases in whi !It the expenses of a district would amount to nearly all the money. Alr. B ES thought it extraordinary that Government should bate been 12 months in discovering that the plan of the committee was impracticable. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER defended the Rite; atione in the bill, and the manlier in which they had been made. After same discussion the nmendment was withdrawn, and on the proposal of Mr. Lushin4toti a clause was introduced and agreed to, authorizing the Treasury to make an allowance of 2s. r mile travelling expenses, and one guinea per day whilst travelling. The remaining orders were a ,reed to without opposition.— The house resumed, and the report was ordered to be received to-morrow. The other orders were diaposed of, and the House adjourned. st eliaLstht It, JULY 10.

The Temporary Advances Biil was read a second time and ordered to be committed to-morrow. 'rite LATE: QIILEN'S SLILVAVN.—The House went into a Cumulate of Supply. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER brought for ward the proposed allowances to her late Majesty's servants.— Ile went into sonic details of the sums. There were other ser vants to whom it was propos.el to make sti allowance of one year's MAINS. He, however, should coaclude on the vestal occasion with moving, that their be granted to defray the pen idol', 2,2511. I2s, After some remarks as to the form, the resolution was agreed to, and the report ordered to be received to-morrow. The CII.I.Ni' , ELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved, that the Stamp Duties Bill be re-committed. Agreed to. Mr. HUME, the house being in a committee, said, that there was scarcely one clause in the bill which did not merit animad version ; but the most objectioeahle port of the bill was that which reduced the allowance for taking stamps above the amount of 301. to ads. per cent. to 20s. Ile was the less able to ma prebend the principle of this change, because the customary ellowatice to distributors, who required no capital, and who bad no risk, was continued at 41. per cent. Mr. istucirr suggested that it would he adviseable to post pone this bill, as many members %lie were interested in it were absent from the house, not expecting that any discussion would come on to-day. especially at so early an hour. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER hail no objection to postponement. Bill ordered to he committed oii Monday. he Stake-coach Bill was ordered to be read a third time to morrow. The House went into a committee on the Lotteries Bill.— Report to-morrow. Mr. I I L NIL: hoped this would Le the last Lottery Bill.—lt was against tine feel lug of the public. The report of the Receivers General was presented. Bill re-committed. Report to-morrow. Mr. G. LAMB presented a petition from certain persons against the Retail of Beet Bill. Mr. BUXTON expressed himself decidedly against the hill. Mr. HUME was in favour of it. The public, as well us the brewers, nierited protection. Mr. MONCK was of a like opinion. lie thought if the Lill was fairly made known, there would nut he a Juan in the country against it. Ailer snow remarks from Mr. Lockhart and Mr. 11. Gurney, Mr. BROUGHAM said that lie desired the amplest discus sion to i.e extended to this bill. If this bill passed, there would not be one public house more than now existed ; it was to enable shops to sell beer. If public-houses kept to their proper business, they would be exclusively engaged in selling beer in their houses ; the shops would supply out door cus tomers. Should time be given, lie apprehended ihat there would he 11 difference of opinion between the brewer' them sele,s as in this bill. As to thu petitioning, he understood that there was a petition about to be presented from the [midi cans and innkevers on the Dover-road against the strain boats being allowed to carry passengers to Calais and elsewhere, whereby their trade was materially injured.—( Hear and laugh ter.) The bill, however, wes of considerable importance, and lie should endeavour to bring it forward WI Tuesday. Petition, which was from country 'newer*, was then read. TRADr.—W• S. WORTLEY said, a duty had I I.( imposed on woollen cloths by the the Cortes of Spain, which gave the government of that count', a great advantage in the wine trade. He wished to know whether any negociatiuu had tekeu place, and whether the result had been favourable to this country. if it it had not, lie should early in the next session call the attention of the House SO the subject. Lord LONDONDERRY said, he admitted the importance of the question. He slated, that negociations on the subject were pending. No exertions on the part of the go; eminent should he wanting to bring those negociations to a successful cond....ion If the contrary should be the case, thee lie should expect to hear of the question nett session. Mr. DENISON observed, that, in the early part of the pre sod session, be brought forward a proposition for a third gaol delivery • in parts of the kingdom, in the course of the year. lie was then told that a plan wits in contemplation to Inert the the difficulties he now wished to learn whether that plan had been matured. Lord LONDONDERRY said, that, in the absence of his right hon. friend, Mr. Peel, lie could °lily reply, that such a phoi had been under consideration, and believed it was SU nearly matured that it might be expected to be acted upon iii Dea ember next. Mr. NOLAN then rose to bring forward his motion on the enbject of the poor laws. That some amendment was required all seemed to admit; there appealed to be • general cry fur some alteration. Ile thought Boit at least they wire boned to attempt to dm suisietlaiug. 'the populatona e.n tlie euttetry Lad greatly increased; 30 per cent. within the last twenty years.— The poor rates amounted to near eight millions, and something ought to be done to meet the dead weight of such a charge.— About the time of Elizabeth all the countries of Europe bad made extra efforts to provide tar the poor; o ut Eui,laod had been foretaort a ..... Hot iiviiised coon', in providing the requisite protection fur the poor. To that fact was owing the superior civilization of England's wot king and poor classes.— To secure the efficiency of such arrangement, they ought to make some efforts. Ile concluded with moving for leave to bring in a bill to amend the pour laws. Lord LONDON DERRY agreed to the motion. Tim soh- Pct required amendment—bat lib thought it would be better to postpone any discussion till the bill was brought in and printed. —Motion adopted. Mr. PEEL. moved thai the report of the Alien% Regulation Bill be received. Mr. BERNAL wished the hosiness to lie postponed. Mr. SCARLETT said lie had to propose four new clairms, which went to limit tit,' powers under the bill, to afford aliens an opportnitity of knowing what the charges against them wvie. Mr. PEEL opposed the clauses, as ►hey went to limit the powers of governuieut, which woald deprive the hill of its main efficacy. The House divided on the first clause. The numbers were, —For it l3—.Against 39—Rojeeted by a majority of 26. Mr. NV RSTERN brought 101*Warti his resolution, declaratory of the state of agriculture, and the trauster of properly that resulted from Mr. Peel's bill. The lion. gent. entered at con videiable length into a repetition of the arguments used by him on a former on thin subject ; lie contended that without a rise in prices the agriculturist must inevitably be ruined ; and that the ruin impending over them could only be averted by increasing the amount of circulating medium, the rapid rcduc lion of which was the occasion of our present difficulties. 7Le hon. member concluded by moving a lung string of resolutions, expressive of his opinion mi this important subject. Mr. RICARDO opposed the resolutions, and contended that the distress was not occasioned wholly by the change of the currency, but to other circumstances combined with it. The alteration might make a diretenee as between landlord and truant, but taken generally, it did not atl•ect the country, as all other things hail altered in the same proportion. Sir F. uultuErr earnestly supported the resolutiens. Mr. WESTERN shortly replied ; after whit &the gallery was cleared for a division, the House did cut all the reso lutions being negatived. The House adjourned at a quarter before 5 o'clock. 1111•1.S1) Y, JULY 11. There being only 32 members present at four o'clock, the set A KHR declared the !loose to stand adjourned till to. morrow. ritthAv. it LY 12.

Most of the dropped orders were then read turd fixed fur Monday. The Temporary Advanc .3 Bill (Ireland) went through a Committee.—Report on Monday. The Salt Duties Repeal Bill went into a committee. Report on Monday. THE LATE Qer.rx's SEttv•sTs.—The report of the resolu tion for allowances to the servants of her late Majesty the Queen Navini• been brought up, Mr. 1115311 suggested that as vacancies occurred in the 95,0001. pension list, her late Majesty's servants should he charged OH that fund, and the consolidated fund he relieve d Gum the charge now about to be brought upon it. Dr. LUSH INGTON said lie was happy that her late Majesty' servants (of the lower classes) had not been forgotten by Ids Majesty's ministers ; hut it was painful to him to observe, that thought the lower classes had been provided for, all her erode deatial servants of high rank, bad been passed over in sile nce. Ile thought they should have been provided for, as the late Queen's servants had been. Many of these individuals, after having served their late royal mistress for six or seven years, or longer, were um., by tire loss of their salaries, reduced to the greatest inconvenience ; and such was the melancholy state of her late Majesty's pecuniary affairs, that there was not sutli rient to pay to her servants, the arrears of wages due to then,. He trusted these circumstances would not escape the attention of Parliament. Mr. LOCKHART complained, that whilst some of her late Majesty's servants were entirely pAssed over in silence ,otl,u rs were extravagantly provided for.—M. fur instance, Intel an unreasonable pension of .1001. a year. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said this allow• once was assigned to M. Sicard during her Majesty's life. Dr. LISHINGTON observed, that the services of M. Sicard were of many years standing, and be had be, n highly esteemed. Mr. S. WORTLEY trusted that provision would be niad• for all her late Majssty's servants on the same scale as fur the servants of Queen Charlotte. Mr. IcROUGHAM agreed in ibis suggestion. The course recommended by the mentb, r fcr Yorkshire would be the most holionable one fur the public. One of these iodividutis had been about her Majesty for 50 years. Mr. S. WOItTLEY alluded to the case of Sire. Cell as one elaiming attention ; in the progress of the hfil he ahculd certainly propose a provision fur the rest of her Majesty's establishment. Dr. LL:BIIINCTON said, he could not, with a due regard to public economy, support other recommendations. Mr. C. W. WYNN said, this wonld be the first time that this house had taken upon itself to originate provisions and grants to the servants of the Royal Family, without a distinct previous recommendation from the Croon. The res , ileition was agreed to, sod a hill ordered sceordiogly. Lorma BILL.—On the report of the lottery bill being pre sented, Mr. RENNET expressed himself against it. Mr. HUME also spoke against it. —Report agreed to. Mr. D. (111,BERT presented the H4port of the London Blidge Water-works' Rill; lie hoped that the removal of the wider-works was only preliminary to the removal of the bridge, which was a disgrace to the metropolis, end an impeilimeet ut the current of the river.
