The House was (according to Order) adjourned during Pleasure, and put into a Committee upon the Bill, intituled, "An Act for laying several Duties upon all Soap and Paper made in Great Britain, or imported into the same, and upon chequered and striped Linens imported, and upon certain Silks, Calicoes, Linens, and Stuffs, printed, painted, or stained; and upon several Kinds of stamped Vellum, Parchment, and Paper; and upon certain printed Papers, Pamphlets, and Advertisements, for raising the Sum of Eighteen Hundred Thousand Pounds, by Way of a Lottery, towards Her Majesty's Supply; and for licensing an additional Number of Hackney Chairs; and for charging certain Stocks of Cards and Dice; and for better securing Her Majesty's Duties to arise in the Office for the Stamp Duties, by Licenses for Marriages, and otherwise; and for Relief of Persons who have not claimed their Lottery Tickets in due Time, or have lost Exchequer Bills or Lottery Tickets; and for borrowing Money upon Stock (Part of the Capital of the South Sea Company), for the Use of the Public."

Hodie 3a vice lecta est Billa, intituled, "An Act to appoint Commissioners to examine the Value of all Lands, and other Interests, granted by the Crown, since the Thirteenth Day of February One Thousand Six Hundred and Eighty-eight, and upon what Consideration such Grants were made."

After Debate;

The Question was put, "Whether this Bill, with the Amendment, shall pass?"
