Message from H. C. to return Sir W. Smith's Bill.

A Message was brought from the House of Commons, by Sir John Brampston and others:

To return a Bill which was sent to the House of Commons, with some Amendments, concerning Sir William Smith and others; to which Amendments the Commons agree, excepting to One, wherein they have made some Alteration, and desire their Lordships Concurrence thereunto.

ORDERED, That Sir William Juxon do appear Tomorrow Morning, upon the Complaint of the Lord Byron.

Bill against maiming and wounding.

Next, the House resumed the further Consideration of the Conference with the House of Commons, concerning the Amendments in the Bill to prevent malicious maiming and wounding; and agreed, that in the Place of the Word ["adhere"] in the Second and Third Amendments, to which the House of Commons do not agree, these Words shall be put in, ["that the Lords are not satisfied with the Reasons given by the House of Commons.]

And as to the leaving out the Clause in the Bill from the 6th Line in the Third Skin, to the Word ["Provided"] in the 27th Line, to which the House of Commons do not agree; the Lords are not satisfied with the Reasons given by the House of Commons.

Hereupon the Lords Resolved, To have a Conference with the House of Commons To-morrow Morning, to give Reasons to maintain their Lordships Amendments, and why their Lordships are not satisfied with the Reasons given by the House of Commons for their Alterations.

And the House appointed the Lord Chamberlain, the Earl of North'ton, Earl of Berks, Earl of Essex, Earl of Anglesey, the Lord Newport, Lord Lucas, Lord Holles, and Lord Ashley, to prepare Reasons for this Purpose, and report the same to the House (fn. 1) To-morrow Morning.

To desire a Conference, in the Painted Chamber, Tomorrow at Eleven of the Clock, about the Subjectmatter of the last Conference.
