Houfe of Commons. March 14. AFR. Curwen moved the Order A of the Day for the Houfe to refolve itfelf into a Committee, to take the Game Laws into confideration.. Mr. Mafey oppofed any meafure which tended to introduce an invafion on perfonal rights; he faw with pain that the fame abolitions and innovations were about to be introduced, as led the way to the overthrow of the ancient fabric of French Monarchy, and which teadi to produce as deftructive confequence in England. Mr. Buxton contended, that defroying abufes was the best of p eferving the conflitu i 'n. way Mr. Frances faid, that the House was indebted to the Honourable Gentleman for a discovery in the properties of animals, that a hare would run, and that a partridge would fly; he was determined that he (Mr. Frances) would alfo have the merit of a difcovery; he begged leave, therefore, to inform them, that a fish would fwim. The Honourable Gentleman muft know that there was properties in fifheries, and that the fame locality attached to the property of birds. Rabbits could run alfo as well as hares. It was unneceffary to fay more. Mr. Curwen spoke in favour of the Speaker's quitting the chair, and Sir John Reus oppofed it. After which, a divifion took place. For the Committee Again it 36 27 In the Committee, Mr. CuraveN propofed a refolution, "That the laws now in force for the prefervation of Game are fubverfive of the rights of the people, and inadequate to the purposes for which they were intended." Mr. Brown opposed this refolution, as an abtract propofition which could do no good. 66 Mr. Fox wished that this refolution of his Honourable Friend might be withdrawn, and a motion be fubftituted, That the Chairman be directed to move the House for leave to bring in a Bill for the Repeal of the Laws for the Prefervation of Game.

Mr. Buxton wished the Bill might be printed. Mr. Curwen faid, he hoped, when the Right Honourable Gentleman fhould read the Bill, he would not think it fo objectionable as he apprehended.
