HOUSE OF COMMONS. Saturday, Aao. 28. Mr. DANCY, fram the Committee on mend men is, the bill to reduce the Tax on Billiard Tableuj when Mr.PLEM MING, ofYaucjr, said as a majority of th Committee on Education, had d terthined aoori A'ttdaciPM:ti, on Billiard Tables, -find had alto n ported ad amendment to the. Bill before ' "the iirdhse7ty whichTtTf proposed, that the Revenue arising Irom that source shall ba applied to the general expendi tures of Government: instead of the School Fiuid; he thought it proper thai the Bill should be referred to the Com mittee on the Judiciary, and moved it Mr. VVASHINGTON Ihat ai a a th commute, va Eiluttioo,t concar red in Hie views of the gentleroea froiu Yin cy,(Slv Fletnming.) ItUiJ teem tomewhai outre for the committee oa Edacativn to be reDorting bill for the reduction of the tax oa Billiard .Table."- It was cer tainly difficult on the first blush, to see the exact connection between the two subject! , Hut Tt would be recollected by ...the HousfVthit thtorijinal ...bill intjrod.ac.ed by the fentlemst ' fioni NewrilaheVer, Mr VVilliim, was entitled a bill to iocresse ihc School Fund," and luch be ing 'the title as well at the aim and ubjeet f . the bill itwaa'-Tery .' naturally and properly referred to the committee "vn Ed. ca:ion. - :' u-"f -fj:;'f ''v" " - la' the consideration of the bill, thit committee thought two questions presented themselves: first, oaght the tax on Billiard Tablet to be reduced at all? And second. ly, if the tsx was , reduceil,' hauld any Kevenue aritinz therefrom, be added to the ScSoul Fund of tSe'psrtrcular Couh- . a a m a ..i.LIJ.L !2niT "ZZTils"" sway. and those who cheri.hed them the current expenses ' of the Government? Ob the flrt point, the" committee were unanimously of opinion, that ; while, the present Ux of five hundred dollar was never ' intended by t a Legislature at A prohibitian, it had neverthrleas in fact op crated as such; and as a Kevenue rots sure, it wis both necessary And proper, that there s'.imld be a redactjnh of the 1st imputed. . "To this proposition, M.tW. himself, . the more readily assented be cause a vrry. large and respectable por tion of his constituents, had by a memori al which he had the honor to present a tew'dsys ago,' expressed a -wish thsl auch reduction should be made, an far aU least ss the t'ouhty of Craven was con cerned. V- ;t' Z j . On -the ncftjwi of the -t pprooriation of any Revenue which ' might be railed from the tax on Billiard ' Tabtrs, there was naturally much more difficulty and division among the members uf the com inii tee. It was cont nded on iheona hand that as titer weald be of coarse bnt few, Billiard Tables im the State, and as 'those Counties where they-wec aituatcd would aeccisarily not only pay ' the principal part of the Ut. imposed, but mainly suffer tK" injury and inconvenience ariaing from the eaublishment of such Tables, . those Couutiei eujht in justice pnd equity, to receive tha whU Revenae arising there from. Of this ' Opinina,' was Mfv W. himself. " It certainly was a strong iac!c mem with him to vote (of the- proposed alter atioo' m Ui 4wf t refiost that if mt "encouraged a- aeceseary evuV good migbl at least aotfV4aeed that , while gn tlemen were apparently waiting their time and their money, they were indirectly contributing to the education of the inno Cent youth of th Country. '- !' 1 But it wsa cont' oded "an the other hand, that in the present eondition f ' the ft nances of jhe Slate, it was not only EP but absolutely nessary t that " all evrnue arising from new or extronrdi ary souces, should go into the Public TrcsKBry vend a tnsj Hity f the "com tnittce beinz of that eiinion the amend - mcrtt new befor tho Hou. was atiptJil and r port eil.

" therefore, sppesrs be fore the Houis now aim pi v as "a Bill 'to reduce the tax oa Billiard TbW." and having nothing on earth to ! with? the subiect of educalion. Mr W. eoacarred with the trentlemen from Yaney fMr Flemming,; that a reference to the eom atitteo on the Judiciary or the mtUee on tnancf , wouui , be uecwieuiy proper, and he hoped therefor that til motion would prevail. .--' . - j SENATE, Nov.

To adopt the amendment woaldM.io'efealtliej. one: In qitestionj afld thero were other such bills whwhswrmld inevita fate, and then was the lime for he friend of these great Stale Improvements to' come out promptly and put it down. There were some among the democratic paity who, he was sure, could not approve the amendmendment nor sanction any attempt, to make it a party tstr- lis should not at tempt to be llieir Mentor, thetr Nestor; nor their counsellor iii an fofmf but be called upon his friends to rally ap;ainst this ot-templedliarrkr-Vo all p6blic"enterpHwe and iinprovetMent. flo appealed to them to shew how wise patriotic aud feattess states men should act entreat occasions; and im plored them not to mingle their mere party feelings in groat queation.nf publicoiUe rest like this.

'i hey would soon Improvement, or r want ' of improvement, would last long alter rneir names were lor gotten! - The restriction,., be said,, was wrong vnd he asked pardon for saying it ought to be- disclaimed t by those who would scorn to be the slaves of party. It involved no principle.;;; He was fot hold ing that and all other corporations to the strictest responsibility; but - to fasten this clog upon the charter in ; question, would be to render it nag ttonr, and to disappoint the just expectations of a large and highly deserving portion of tne citizens of the commonwesllh. . : " ' But the matter did not stop there; He saw his tUend Trom Cumberland and his friend from New Hanover,? who had bills on the table for works of vast importance, inivbicb he himself, aa well as menyroth. era, felt a deep interest; and there was a proposition in the other House of , much importance to the north eastern Portion (if the State, for whose welfare, for many reasons, they, were all bound to feel a live ly concern. .

It was to open a way, for our cit isens, to carry their prodace to market out of the State, because no means would be provided for them to get te on,-er the hsd none to go to.1 in it.
