fuch an alteration in the Revenue, in the cempa• rifon of two years, that producing only in the firil 1 8,0001. it increafed in the fecond to Sz,oool. In this modification he had the thanks of the Tanners' Corporation, and he was convinced the murmiirs arofe only from thole Tanners whofe illicit prat• tices had been prevented. The CHANCELLOR of the Excavoymt hoped, after the reafons that had been Rated by his Right Hon. Friend, thole Gentlemen who wi(hed to have the prefent bufinef pnftponed, would not prefs for any longer day. They would have the goodnefs to recolle&, that the fubjed of the pre. fent evening's debate did not come fuddenly upon them. Notice had been given in the lalt Settle:l of Parliament, that it was intended to pivofe that the Taxes in Ireland might be made perma nent : the fubje& at that time underwent come di/cull - ion. A notice was afterwards given, before the Chriamas recefs, that it was to be brought forward ; and the reafon it was not done before that time was, becaufe Gentlemen who reprefent• ed Ireland had not then come over to attend their duty in Parliament. His Right Hon. Friend had recently been prevented from attending the Hook, , in confequence of his being chofen upon an Elec• tion Committee, and in confequence of indifpofi tion. It was evident that Gentlemen had had I'd. ficient notice ; and they mull be aware, that at the prefent moment the neceflity for difpateh was Co obvious, that if the Bill was not paired within a certain time, the Revenues of Ireland would ac tually be in abeyance ; there would be an end of them. Gentlemen, therefore, mutt fee the lesions embarraffrnents that ma follow, if their wills should be complied with ; but there were various other flaps in which they might difeufs the mea fore hereafter, without flopping the progrefs of it; and he was lure his Right Hon. Friend would have no objeltion to infert a claufe in it, by which Parliament might be enabled to repeal it during the prefent Sefton. Colonel VIREKIR contended that the general notices alluded to by the Right Hon. the Chan cellor of the Exchequer, were not fufficient to ap• prize Gentlemen of what was to come forward, or to give them notice to prepare for the difcullion of the fubjeift. Mr. Clausal , Paid, thefe notices, fo repeatedly given, mutt have been fufficient, for it was not in tended to make any fingle Tax permanent, except thofe that already exifled in Ireland ; and all thefe were entered down in the book of rates, which it was competent for any Gentleman to refer to. Colonel V , in reply, Paid he fuppofed that what fell from the Hon. Member who fpoke proceeded from a with to ingratiate himfelf with the Irith Chancellor of the Exchequer. For his own part, he not only felt he had a right, but he conceived it his duty, to refill a meafure that tend ed to bring calamity on the country which he par ticularly reprefented. It was now intended to ren der permanent a van War Tax, which had fence been kept up to fupport the largeft peace ellablifh anent that ever cu lied in Ireland ; and nntwith. Rending the probability of a confiderable deduaion being made in that ellablifhment, yet the Taxes that fupported it were to be made permanent. The Refolutions were then agreed to, and the Report was ordered to be received to-morrow. On the Motion of Mr. CORRY, it was ordered, that the Irifh Malt Duty Mt Ibould be referred to the confiderationcla Committeeofthe whole Houfe. ARMY The Houfe having refolved Kelt into a Conn. Mitten of Supply, The CHANCELLOR of the Excusktrai nbferved, that he had laft year, in his ftatement of the Ways and Means to the Houfe, eftimated the Extraordi varies of the Army at the film of t,600,0001. He had firll moved for a fum of 600,00c1. and after wards for an additional fum of one million. It would be recollefted . , that on the latter occalion he had told the Houk, it was uncertain whether a larger turn might not be required for that par. ticular fervice. He was not at the time fufficiently prepared to Rate the precife amount of what would be wanted ; but he laid he apprehended that the excels would not fall far (port of 1,300m001 This was nearly the amount of what he was now about to move ; and it would be feen, that it did not ex ceed one half of the excels of the preceding year. He then moved a refolution, to grant the fum of 1,032,1511. 4s. Bd. to his Majay, to make good the Extraordinaries of the Army for the fervice of the year iftoa. Mr. FULLER rote to afk whether eflimates had not been fent of the different films as they were drawn for ? The CHANCELLOR of the Excittotrca anfwered, that many of the fervices under the head of Army Extraordinaries, were of fuch a nature as to he incapable of having estimates made of the eapences attending them. The priatice purfued for Come years was, for there estraordinaries to be paid in bills drawn from the Treafiwy ; but previous to any payment being made, there. together with the nature of the Cervices, were fubmitted to the infpec tion of the Comptroller of Army Accounts ; and, even after meeting his approbation, and after the liihs being paid, :ley underwent another inveßiga tion, and if it then appeared that any fraud or cal. lnfionliad been praStifed in obtaining that money, the drawers of the bills ii-ere hill refponfible, and would be liable to refund it. It was therefore evi dent that, although RD poltive eftirnate could be made of dick Cervices, there was no danger of their being over-rated or over paid. Mr. Jo niesrox laid he underflood there was a film of Scoot. paid, or to be paid, to a Mr. Wil liam Hutrey, for furnishing clothes to fome df the Native Troops in India. This was an expence which he thought was always defrayed by the na tives therufelvts. Mr. VANSITTATT laid, there clothes, were fur nished for the ufe of troops in the illand of Ceylon, at a time when that expence could be defrayed from no other fouice except from Great Britain : but arrangements were made, by which the Coln.' rly (hould hereafter l i sp port the Native Troopc, in the fame rtl4llllCl as Was done on the Continent of General TARLITO'I f 4 J. he hoped the Army would be pl.ceal on the am. iveting m Scotland and Ireland, as it was in England.—The Ref('lotion was then agreed to, and the Report ordered to be received tomorrow. MALT DUTY. Sir Joint Wacrms LEY laid, he wifled to afk, whether it was intended to do any :ping with regard to feveral Petitions then lying on the table, relative to the Malt Tax ? Ifno other Gentleman tl:ought proper to call the attention of the Houfe to the fubjeet of them, he would himfelf mor: to have them taken into confideration. The CHANCILLOR of the EXCHicri et frith the Hon.

The Cnn certo, at the end of the fecond AEI, was exqui(itely performed by Mr. ASHLEY, and received the molt flattering and general applanfe. Indeed, flit whole entertainment went off with uncommon 'do', and its excellence aggravated the deferved indignation which the audience in general felt at the partial interruptions of ruffian infenfibility, which proceeded from parts of the gallery, and the back range of the lower boxes. The Houle, exhibiting a *ding inhiance of the public talk, was full in every part ; and proved that the genius of fleatnr L has not 101 l its influence over that people by whom it was foftered to its unrivaled elevation.
