There were in this felled no letrer than lug resolutions ; to many of them he had obje,tions, but lie particulaily complained of that vs hid, noted 0,0001. to Gen. Destourneaux. Though he mily particularly complained of that resolution„ lie thou . :di' it *mild be better to oppose the whole revolt, as the st likely way of bringing the right hon. gentleman to sonic terms. There had been a good deal of talk about economy on the preceding evening, and n o w menibeis would have the opportunity of carrying their pi inciple, into pf4C• lice ; and what would be core there would be no occasion to disturb the place or pensiun of any our; they hail only to w ithliold their upprobatioil of their 01;0.00:Joe claim, which had slept for upwards of twenty yew's, ae.l which was wholly unknowo to persons who had beta 111 tae island at the time or since. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, lie would to take this resolution tint, end it was thvti read *rem dingly. Mr. CAL(:RAFT then proceeded to examine the claim, reading the evidence suit documents preseined to the coin injure um Gen.

How that Ronne could of listening to such claim. especially after the Ge-eral had been rejected by the French government, he was at a loss to delta mine. It was extraordinary that this claim should be again brought fill ward ; but at seemed persons 111110:111 %%ere ioteresting them selves much in this affair. Even French bankers, it was rumoured, had exercised their iiillaence in this affair; Nine Fretich banker, who occasionally came to th.s couutry, had written and personally solicited members of that house to support his claim. The only item that was pound was one for 1,4001. to Mr. La Manny ere ; and after all they had head in favour of eon:um), he thoaAlit they could nut du linter 1111111 Cory the pi iiicaple of economy into effect uti Inc day after the addr.ssin favour of it had bven sided. Ali T. WILSON said, he-sliould not be unwilling to sup pot t proper scoisonly—out he could nut agree that the c:atin had not been established. Mr, WARItE thought the house ought to agree to the course proposed by the hon. member fur Wareham (Mr Caleraft); and argued against the Air. P.

Mr. W. PEEL also resisted the grant. Mr. H. GURNEY thought, as there was such difference of opinion, it would be adviseable again to refer Hsu matter in a Committee. Mr. E. DOUGLAS feared that many were resisting the greater grant who had nut read all the evidence. The imputation about French bankers lie considered to be of au now ot tliy character. The recut iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii or the Committee was certainly not binding oil the HOOSe, hill it ought to be remembeted that they had bestowed a good dead of attention to the subject ; he thought SO lt stress ought not to lie placed mi what hail beta done by the Comptrollers of the Array ACCollilli and the Treasury, esptc.allv as the Committee followed. 31r. IRVING spoke in support of the larger grant. It had not been voted by the Committee As a legal but as an equitable claim ;on that ground he supported it. The evidence justified the result to which the Committee had color. He thought they had came to the result to which the evidence had compelled them to conic; and as the items were so well supported, be thought the eireumstatit e of their having remained so ninny years unsettled was au argument in favour of tilt it being novo settled. The Douse divided—Against the larger grant 41—For it 6.

Mr. HVME moved for returns of the different slims paid to newspapers in Great Britain for advertisements, proclamations, 6tc. by the several public offices fur the last three years.—He also adverted to the practice ul making fair copies of the votes of the house ; previously to the intioduction of printing, this might be useful, but now he thought the expenee could be saved. The SPEAKER stated, wet according to 'a recent act the services of the house were now raid for by tired salaries; the fees, Sic. were lonised into a fund tur such put pose; and as the daily votes were printed in consi tes able haste, the practice mentioned was useful to pie vent mistakes. SCOTCH BREWERIES.— Loeil A. H%MILTON then rose, pursuant to notice, fur leave to bring in a bill to It peal that clause of the acts of the fat and 24 George.

He contended that the re golatious were int- Israel ieable, or if they were pi acticalite, they must put thu brewers to such expences as would materially d .ist. the priolits, and probably lessen the consumption. 11. concluded with moving fur leer to Wine hi a bill to repeal these clauses w hick required certificates and accuitut looks of the sales or bier. Mr. MAXWELL seconded the motion. The clamps were of en obnoxious and inquisitorial character and the usly object would be to collect a aulecicucy of icveutio:. • - - The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER remarked that, according to all he could learn, and from eumnitini cations with well-informed persons, he I'olllll not see that the objections were well 'hooded: miller all the circum stance,, he 1110,.11.11p01e the 1111/1“,11.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER observed, that lie had forwarded instruel ions. that the mildest con sit licii.in thould be put uu the clauses. Motion negatived without any division. Pow Elt uv TIIE Junues.—Mr. HOBHOUSE said, tin had not brought forward any motion respecting the con. duct of • certain judge fining a defendant w bile adds easing the jury, owing to the pressure of business before the house, and because he thought lie saw ❑o wciiustiou to repeat such practice; but if it were repealed, he sl Id then bring forward a apecilic charge against whatever judge should he guilty of such conduct. 1 . 011u:co Ihrirs.—The CHANC:ELLOR of the EX CHEQUER postponed the report of the Tobacco Ditties bill till Itlonilay, souse cleiik al emus having crept into the copy of the bill. Mr. HOBHOUSE said, if two or three clauses were amended, it might hope to pass without opposition; it would certainly be resisted, when it possibly might be lost tor the present session. He hoped the Solicitor of Excise would come to terms with the trade before Mon day. The Isle of Man Trade bill, the Silk Bounties hill, the Stock Cancelling bill, ate. were repotted, and ordered to be read a third time to 1110111/Vf. 'l•he CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved, that the remaining resolutions of the cummilite of supply he agreed to. On the item that B,loul. be granted fur the salaries of the cominissioneis and clerks of the Insolvent Debtors' Cum t, Mr. G. BENNETT mnst resist this grant, which gave tie chief commissioner 2,0001. and the second c .is stunt r Mr. BERNAL thought it was beneath the chief corn missioner's dignity to practise elsewhere as an advocate. After a few words front the Attorney Cieueral, the resolution was agreed to. The 114'51 grant was 3,000', odd fin the contingencies of the :hen Department. Sic It.
