trade in the house of lord 14th of june lord kenyon moved the se cond reading of the bill for regulating thp hour of labor of children in cotton fac tories if the present were a question merely of morbid sensibility he should be far from addressing their lordships in favor of the bill but he felt that it was one of practical humanity which requi red the interference of the legislature neither should he have proposed such a measure had he conceived the common law sufficient to counteract the evils of the present system in consequence of he objections which had on former oc casions been urged against the agitation of this question he thought it necessary to state that he had the authority of se veral magistrates and clergymen residing in manchester stockport and their vi cinities to assert that the recent distur bances in the manufacturing districts had no connection whatever with the discus sion of this topic in parliament during the progress of this measure various o- pinions were stated respecting the degree of distress which children suffered in the factories and the evidence on this point on the part of the bill still remained un contradicted it could not be denied that the hours of work were not fewer than i i 15 and even in some places than 15 hours out of the 24 neither could it be contradicted that the heat of the factories was so high as 85 87 and even 90 degrees attempts had been made to shew on the authority of medi cal men that thecmployment ofchildrcn in these factories was not injurious to their health and some learned gentlemen of manchester had indeed given evidence to that effect he did not mean to im pute any thing improper to those gen- tlemeu who no doubt gave their evi- jdence under a convicton of its truth but they had been called in bv the master manufacturers of manchester and the factories were shewn to them at a time and under circumstances very favorable to their own views and wishes and the medical gentlemen were induced thereby to give opinions flattering to the general state of the factories the present mea sure had been objected to by some noble lords as if it would prove injurious to the cotton trade of the country but if we could believe the accuracy of this representation he should not have pray ed their lordships to give it their sanc tion it appeared by the evidence taken before the committee that not less than 511000000 of property was suuk in the cotton manufactory and it was stated by some of the witnesses that 27000000 were annually expended in this biauch of our trade it was stated that 60000 persons were engaged in this trade and by some it was asserted that the labour er employed in it were not fewer than 120 the average rate of wagci to
