§ On the motion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the house went into committee, in which the adjourned consideration of the Petitions against the Orders in Council was resumed. The following witnesses were then called in and examined, Mr. Wm. Bell, Mr. Thomas Martin, Mr. Alex. Forrester, and Mr. Abraham Mann. On account of the lateness of the hour, and there being then five other witnesses to examine, the further consideration of the question was postponed till tomorrow.
