Lord AYLFSFORD reported his Majrfty's gracious anfwer to the Addrefs of the Houfe, praying for the produetion of certain official document; conneded with the Ordnance Department. It exprelied ,racious compliance to acqoiefce with the fame. The Innkeepers' Soblittence Bill, and the Oak Ba►k Itegratiug Bill, Were kverally read a fecund time, and ordered to be c tea to-morrow. Lord REL)ESDALE brought in a Bill for the relief of Copy' holders in certain cares. It was read afn ft time. SCnTS JUDiCATURF. Lord ERSKINE role to call the attention of their Lordihips to the circumtlances which lead led to the predicament in which the Houfe was placed with Tell:reel to 11 t: hill brought in by his Noble Friend' (Lord Grenville) for the better regulation of the! Courts of Civil Jittlice in Scotland. He thought it recelTary to imprefs upon the anent •n of the Houfe the caufes which had operated to produce the prefent efFeelc, as fuch a retrofrelive view would tend to explain the nature and objelt of the motion, of which it was then his intention to give notice. He would not then atgue whether the divificn of the Court of Sayan into three or two Chambers would, in its cnn fequences, prove the mot: beneficial meafure ;—but he was perfeelly confident that the furrcnder of the fecood bill, which refe►red to the int rodue.lion of the Trial by Jury, in certain cafes, would totally vitiate the whole meafore of improvement, -s intended by the bill propnfed by his Noble Friend (Lord Gren ville). It was his with to afcertain the 'opinion of the Learned Jtidgec, whom it was thought nee( fray to have in attendance. In receiving that opinion, he was induced, by every feeling and duty, In treat thofe refpelable charallers in the moll c:ignified and honourable manner. He would, therefore, incl. fe to the Noble and Learned Lord on the NVoolfircic, a copy of the c,uellions which he deemed it advanta- geous to put to the Judges ; and the anfwer to whi c h, Le was led t anticipate, would materially change the decifion which the li..ufe was at p. trent inclined to adopt. He alto wiflied, that tire Scots Judges fhould have the opp-rtunity of deliberating on the cioeflions propc.fed, and then of giving the colleaire vpinion of fuch as were in attendance. The Noble Lord concluded by giving notice of his intention to put certain o.rettions to thofe Judges of the Court of Stflion, who were in attendance ; and that they be summoned for to-morrow.---Orklered accordingly.

Colonel WOOD rose to t:ive v.:nice of a moti to-Morrow for the prodt..:":ion of lean' front Ad miral I)acre, dated the it th of janua• y latl, iing another letter from Cap - ain Brifoane, g vin' ail account of the capture of the Nand of Curies. The SPEAKER tanti g ht it neceflitry to Ultra m the. Honourable Gentlern.,n, that tree ul4ge •.1 the Honfe required, that any Honourable ',".l‘tieber, in moving for ollica d!iettments, the old explain to the Houfe fuch motives a, thottl,t, aT leaf i n h is (1 ,,,- n mind, be a fati,faet..t y grouted fut. tc.ota.n. Colonel WOOD e xplained, that he move.l for thole papers, in order to lay the grrtricl rf a motion r a Committee to eaqiii.e into the carafes of re rr.oving Captain Brifb..ne ft , m the Government of Curacoa, which he had enietterc.l, and for appointing the relation ('f a Right Hon. G,ntlemein tippcfite ( Mr. Witten . am) to that i Mr. WINDHAM had :n very part:coilr with to opp. , fe the rranicn annul:lived by the Harnmr able Gentleman, for the letters mentioned 7 but it judge whether he had woulii be for the Honfe made out Inflicient groottdx to induce a compliance :v•tie hi, o hjal,confitttirly with the la inciples t•I Par .ruentat y praftice. With relpeet to the Govern ment Curacoa, immediately tubfequent to its cap ,„„., tt was no more than rate of thole temporary app , itaments which ;dually took place upon Inch orca fi on the mere authority of the captor, and c,anerally devolved upon a y Commander, until the pleafine of his Majetly thould be known. Tile 4‘. ruination of Captain Brifbane, at CIIraCOA, was of t - eis rat ure. and precifely ti that of Sir David I;,ittl, at the Cape ef Good Hope, in the prefent ~ear, and of Land Macartney, at the fame place, dieting the Lift war. - But there appointments were ~_vet made in the regular way, under his M a i c ay , s iignature ; and therefore, could nut be conuldered as r::ettlatly fettled. Having fo far explained the nature of the fubjca, upon which the H. nourahle Gentle• ioan propofed an enquiry, he begged to 311 c, whether the Houfe, after all that had been laid of late about the Royal Prerogative, would entertain loch a pro ooiition as that of a quellion,—not why the King had a,.vinted the prefent Governor, as was his Majefiy's iiiktoultted right fn to do—but why Itehad not appoint. . 1 eomebody elfe ? The 'Honourable Gentleman did .t pretend to alledge,any grnupdi ofdif.cinaliqcation againft the perfon whir nowt filled that Ration, nor did thole who recommendred him to his Majelly's choice, fee any circumftances in his cafe or charac ter, which could, in the fmalleft degree, depreciate his eligibility to the fituistion. His fervices in a mi litary line fur fifteen years, his education, his man ners, his experience, his time of life, his reputation, were all points upon which the Hon. Gentleman had offered no objeCtion ; and they were certainly sir. cumftances which, when his Majelty condefcended to afk the advice of his Miniflers as to the appoint -1 ment in quellion, induced them to recommend that Gentleman. The Honourable Member feemed to I alrume that as a principle which he could never admit namely, that inall cafes, the Officer who takes an 1 nand ought of cootie to be appointed the Governor. It might happen, in many cafes, that the perfon i.under whole command the capture is made, would be the moll improper perfon in the world for adari ' 1 Mitering its government—as the two duties of Con querur and Governor required qualities totally dif ferent, although they might fornetimes be found r I united in the fame man. But it by no means 1.-.1- 1 lowed, that the atchievernent of a conqnefl qualified 1 a Commander for the office of a Governor, any more than that the maker of a nautical initrument mull of necetliry be an able performer thereon. • As to the gal lantry difplaytd by Captain Brithane, in the capture of the place, no man more highly admired the at chievement than he *did :—but it remained to be alked, diti Captain Br itbane himfell with to be can tinned as the Governer ? 1-le did not know that the gallant (Hiker ever expreffed, or entertained filch a with. And he himfell happened to know an initance of an itland, of much greater extent and importance, having been captured by a Britifh fquadron nder the command of the Captain of a frigate, who u declined the appointment of Governor, and preferred the command of his own veffel. If the Honourable Gentleman had real - on to believe that there was may thing in the conlftia or charafler of the prefent Go vernor of Cotracoa, which rendeted his appointment improper, and liiintelt unfit lot the fituation, he would do well to Rate it in the pryer cparter—but under the precept cii comfiances, he believed the Houle woula not be difpofed to entertain a que:lion for calling his Majelty to an account for appointing a Governor to a captured Settlement, againit whom no fault or dilqualificat ion whatever was alledged. L'rd CASTLEI(EAGH felt confiderable diffi culty in the motion introduced by his Hon. and was perfuaded that his 1-lon. Friend would fed there was no kind of rptellion lefs within the province of that Hunk tndifctica. All that at prefent appear. ed was, that Captain BriCoane had affirmed the go vernment immediately after the capture. until his Majolty's pi:aline 'honk! he known—and that his Majetty had•tince thought fit to exercife his dircretion in appointing another peribn. The Hon. Gentleman urged no complaint whatever of incompetence, in any reipesl, againg the perfon appointed—and t herefore, it was hardly to be expeeled that Parliament would travel out of its province to interfere with the exer cure of the Royal difetetion on this occafion. The conduit of Captain Brifbane flood 10 high with the Parliament and the Country, that it would be a de traction from his merit to hippie that he felt any dircontesit at the difpcfition made by his S..veteign in this cafe—and he did not conceive, that the delicacy f Captain I.l:ilbane's feelings Of reputation were confulted by agitating loch a cptellion. Unlels there tore, the Honoorable Gentleman had 'erne com plaint to offer againfl the character or contlita of the Gentleman appointed to the Government in queflion, he would earl y : 111- r teLonsinend to him to withdraw his !notion. Coliatel WOOD decl tied, that his tole inJuJe. ment to the HT he had taken was his riche to ftrp port the tights of an individual met hot ieus Officer, whole defer ts he did not tl,ink wr-re fairly or liberally arnli-teiedby his Majelly's late Minillerf, in this affair. fie thought the yt f thole iNlini:lers who held the ra , ronage of the et.utor y, would he elerti‘ed with mach mote Hike, as weil as more advantare to the rublio weal, if that patronage was applied to the ercouragetmnt of merit n.l t 11:: reward of brilliant f.rviccs, rather than in providing ins their (...,11 im• mediate frienel•. 11;:,1rowever, contented to w ithdraw hi, notice, with tit:: leave of the 11 , :ute, which was granted.

The CHANCELLOR. of the • EX.LHEOUER infosmcd the Noble Lord, that no change whatever had taken place in the proceedings or intentions t.f Govelument up, n that fubjeft ; but he untie! flood it was the intention of the preceding Coretnment that time farther enquiry fliould take plac.e -there upon, previous to the commencement of any rtocefs, civil or military, thereon. He had felt it his own duty . to make I;,me enquiry as to the farther proCeedings which had fence taken place, and lie found that no diligence or exerti..n had been wanting en the part of thole to whom that fubjea was referred, wwards bringing it to a fpeetly iffue. ruißmym F.t.ECT lON. The Order of the day having been read for reclin ing the debate upon the queilion for agreeing with the Refidertion of the Pent hyn Deakin Committee, " That Sir Chrittopher Hawkins, by himielf and his agents, were guilty of grofs bribery and corruption at the late election." Calirtin HERBERT role and Elated, that al thr.tign the Houle certainly owed great deference to the Ref lutions and decifintiri of its Committees, when finally made, yet great cantion lhould be uled in any proceeding pi °poled to be grounded upon re ports partially made by Inch Committee-, upon a part Cnly of the evidence before them ; and fuch was the nature of the Refoluti , sn which the Houle was now called on to Adopt. in fuel) cafes it be hoved the Houle, before it should ground any pro. cee ding, more eiPec'ally one of a erfc inating and penal natute, againfi any perfnn who micht be the fubjed of Inch a Refs lotion, minutely and deliberately t o -e4aroin.; the whole of the evfden“, and to be t.tt:l , . fled that it fully bore out the charges The Hoofe I owed a deiicate regard to its own dignity, as well as; to the efficacy of the example ;wended to be ira preffed by the folemnity of its proceedings in fuch cafes; and therefore, it ought not to direa a crimi nal profecution againft the party accufcd, unlifs the charges were fo palpable, and the proofs fo clear, as to render a conviEtion by a Jury morally certain — for an acquittal upon fuch a charge. through any failure is the proofs, would tend, in no trivial degree, to depreciate the authority of the Houfe, and lower the opinion of its wifdom in the public eflimation— he would, therefore. put it to the confederation of the Houfe, whether it would not be more advifable, tin der fuch an uncertainty, anil even fuppofing it poffi• ble that the refulution of the Committee was fupport ed upon fairly balancing the evidence, rather to let the matter reit bete, and confider the Hon. Baronet already punifhed enough by the vexatious to which he had been expoled—the aainns, butts, anl ex pences to which he had been made liable—without following up the bufinefs to a criminal profecution. —The Honourable Member went at length into a comparative examination of the teliimony offered on both fides, the proininent points of which retied upon the controlled evidence of a Mr. Moone and a Mr. Stoner : both were decidedly in contradiftion to each other, and he conceived the one as f.tirly enti tled to belief as the other. The Honourable Mem ber was then proceeding to read Come written affida vits which had been put into his hands on the occa lion, when The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQI_JER rufe to order, and tojeacd to the Hon. Member be ing allowed to read, as part of his fpecch, affidavits woolly extrinfic to any tettimony.before the Com mittee on the Penillyn Eleaion, fur the purpole of impeaching their deciftun. The SPEAKER clearly coincided in this opinion. Mr. HERBERT apologifed for his departure from order, and argued that from the whole of what he had hated of the evidence before the Com mitice, there was no proof of any direct aft or agreement on the part of the Hon. Baronet, for the ! purpofe of bribery or corruption, or that any thing i more had been proved thin that Inch pr - poll- Lions had been made to him, hut not that he had ever agreed to them. And as to tile evidence t h a t the 1 Petultyti Committee had given twenty (billings each Ito a 'umber of perfons to drink Sir Chrilinpher 1 Hawkins's health, the :eft& proved it was not costa -1 &red by thole perfons as a payment for their votes ; for out of one hundred who received the money, ninety had voted againft him. There were many precedents to 'hew that it was not unufual with the Houfe to pafs over fintilar Reports of their Commit tees without any criminal proceeding ; and he trolled they would do fo in the prefent cafe. He concluded by moving, " That the Refolution be taken into farther confideration this day three months." Lord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON faid, that, from every attention he had been able to pay to the evidence in this cafe, for five weeks in ftteceffinn, he Iwas clearly of opiniontthe Refolution of the Com. 4 mittee was fully (unlined, and that there never was a cafe which came before that Houfe better labltan. timed, or in which the Houle was more imperionfly bound to aO. The fimple queflion propofed by the order of the day was, nut to proceed direaly to a penal prolecution, hut for the Houfe to agree with a Refolution of its Committee. The motion of the Hon. Gentleman was to abandon the cafe altogether —to this he could never agree, but would fupport ' the original Refolution. Mr. LEE KECK, as a Member of the Commit. tee, felt the cleareil conviaion that their Refolu.ion was founded upon the moil unquellionable proof!, and therefore that there never was a oefe which called more fincibly. upon the jithice of the H. ufe to follow it up by a criminal profecution: There had been leveret inlionces of Mambers,botb expelled and profecuted for offences, and he did not confider that the lituation of Sir C. Hawkins ought to be any thing better un account of his being returned fur two other I places. I Mr. STEWART did not think the bottle mild lenter into a confideration of the merits of the cafe, ; after having appointed a Committee for that particular purpofe. He, however, thought that he had never heard of a cafe of more open, barefaced. and indecent corruption than the cadent, and therefore thought ;the Houle Ihould take fame proceedings upon the Rept-to of the Committee. Mr. HURST thought that in a cafe where the ; charaaer, honour, and fame of an Hon. Member was c !fleet fled, the Houfe Should not proceed unlefs I lip il the clearett evidence. It did not appear to him I that the refolutiun of the Committee was fopported by very clear evidence. Two of the witneffes, Mr. Stoner and Mr.Moone,fwore direaly in contradiaion to each other. Mr. Stoner (wore that he never did receive a written agreement. which the other (wore he had received. He thought time warnot a fit& l cient preponderance of evidence for the Houfe to re folve upon any fevere meafure. Sir Chriflopher Hawkins had alfo declared to him, upon his honour, Oat there never had citified loch an agreement as was i !worn to by one of the witnelles. Sir W. W. WYNNE faid, that whatever Sir Citric topher Hawkins might deny, Hill, as his agent (who mull be confidered as an unwilling While's) had ad. mined it upon his oath, he could not but be:ieve that there was fuch an agreement. If the agreement was of a different nature, and not for giving twenty four guineas a man to the vraers, why did net Sir Chrino pher or his agents produce that agreement which had taken place t Mr. Stoner faid he burnt thole papers; but it was eafy to guefs what fart of papers thole were that people are In eager to burn.. He thought that prt fecution was the heft mode of meeting crimi nal offences ; but that the honour and dignity of that Houfe might alfo require another mode of punifhing the obtaining feats by bribery. The man who bought his fear, was the man molt likely to fell his vote. He hoped that they would ea towards this corrupt Bo rough, as Parliament had done in the cafe of Shore ham, Cricklade, and Ayletbury. Mr. WINDHAM profeffed not to have liudied ibis cafe at ail, and to know no more of it than what he had heard fence he came into the Houle. He, how. ever, entreated the Houfe, not to be led away by all extrinfic confiderations, but limply confider what was their duty upon the prefent occalion. If the guilt were clearly proved, he did nor fee why there might not be conenrrent profeentions at the fame time ; but if it were doubtful, he thought it would be too much to begin by inAißing punithment. . . Mr. WHITBREAD took notice, that thL R,Ol Honourable Gentleman who (poke laft had left t h t Houfe-completely in doubt what was his opinion, r , on which fide be meant to vote. He was differentl y eircumnanced from that Gentleman, fir he had re 4 the evidence, and given Come attention to the ear, but he could by no means conceive how the Hoof, ' could be laid to be affuming the quilt of Sir Chrifio. pher Hawkins, by opening, as it was ulna'. to do, with the refolution of the Committee fele&ed b r them to determine the quenion upon their oaths. Mr. ROSE thought that the report of the Commit. tee was fufficient to fend the party to his tijaildr o y e a Court of Jullice. If any preiudice could be Cup Ipofed to cull! here, no fuch prejudice could be Cup. pofed to influence the common tribunals. He there. fore was for the profecntion of Sir C. Hawkins. After a few words from Mr. 8 IMEON and Mr, LETHBRIDGE, the yieflion was put upon Capt. Herbert's motion, and was negatived without a divi. lion. The debate was then refumed upon the originit quellion.s . Mr. SIMEON thought the Refolutirn wns f banded on evidence fufficiently clew. He of em.' that there had been corrupt practices, but be did think that aduAl bribery had been proved. He dre; I, a dillinaion between agreeing to bribe, which b; th'mght had been proved, and ;rano' bribery which he thought had not been proved. In fupport of di a opinion, he commented at tonfiderable length on the evidence in the Report of the Committee, Mr. LEYCES rER, in reply to Mr Simeon,o. Rued alio at confiderable length from the evidesce, front which he drew an oppofite conclulion, as cot cdered that bribery had been made out. l l Mr. HU Rs - r repeated his former arguments, and added, that giving the pound notes intimd of a din. tier could not be confideted as bribery. Mr. SWAN (Member for Penrhyn), declared, that he never heard of loch an agreement, at the 1 time he joined his intereft with Sir Chriltopher Haw. 1 kips, and if he had believed that there was loch an agreement, he would not have joined him. He would (late for himfelf, and for one hundred and fixty.tsra I freemen of Penryhn, who voted for him, that they [knew of no loch agreement, and if they had they would not have given Sir Chriltopher their inaepen. dent vote:.--[A laugh.] He knew the town of Pen. ryhn well : they had never afked from him eyes a fingle folitat y alining, and he knew they 'pertain corrupt.—[4 laugh.] As for the bulinefs of the one pound notes, it was this: he had always confided it neceffary to follow an old cuflom, which, perhaps, would be " better in the breach titan in the obfer• Ivance," of (hewing fome attention to his Conflituents. Inttead, however, of opening public hooks, he found ! that it was leis expentive to diaribrite fmall hunt of I five and ten thillings a man. When a comprcmile was made between his friends and thofe of Sir Chrif. topher Hawkins, it was thought right that Sir Chriflophes Ihould give a dinner; but atterwaids,the one pound notes were fuhßituted in the place of a dinner, and was Get tainly only meant as a mark of attention, and by no means as a bribe, as no oppofi tion was expedled in the Borough, nor was there a probability of an Elation form taking place. The CHANCZLLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought that the Houfe mutt feel, that atter toe It. ' port of their Seler9 Committee, they ss ere bound 13 take tome proceedings on it. and order a profetutim It did appear to him, that there was upon the faced the report firificient evidence to juaify the refolutios that the Committee had come to. He preferred a profecution to expulfion, as it appeared to him a little unfair that he Ihould be tirft puitifhed by expullion, and then fent to a trial, where, pc: hapr, he might he acquitted. If he had been returned for but one place, the Houfe could have done nothing more than order a profecution. Mr. BANKES laid, there was no inflance en the Journals of a Member being ordered to be profecuted. i and yet allowed to keep his feat. He indanced the, cafes of Mr. John Ridge, in the reign cfQtyen Anne . John Coanechi, in the year 1715 ; and Sir A. Grant i who had . all been expelled from the Houle, and sf • terwards ordered to be profecuted. The Shepherd, faiher and Gin, were expelled and profeented fa bribery, in the year i 7co. It Sir Chriltopher had but returned for but one place, the report of the Cr'* mittee would immediately deprive him of his feat ;- and he did not think that he lhould be in a betta fituation, becaufe he had been returned for three places. Sir NV. W. WYNNE fhought that when a Con mittee had reported any Member of that Horde to b guilty of bribery, he fhould be no longer permittd to fit among them. Mr. S. BOURNE thought, that the Honk one not both- to infliet the ponifhment of expulfion, as order a pr.•feeution. He much preferred the late courfe, and thought that if lie were found guilt upon a trial in a Court of Jollice, his expullion frci that Finnic would he merely a matter of courfe. Mr. WHITBREAD laid, that he could ea(r conceive a cafe, ahhough he would not fay that th: was that cafe, where a perfon mignt he acquitted a Court of Jultice, and yet where the Hook of Cot mons might he fn convinced of his criminality, as , think it necelfary to expel him. In the prefent ik fiance, however, he was for a profeention. Mr. ATKINS WRIGI IT replied to the argument; that had been urged againfi his original motion. While lirangers were excluded, we learned that Mr. Atkins Wright. moved " that the Attorney Gc. neral be direkted to profecute Sir Chriltopher Haw• kins for bribery," &c.; to which motion Mr. DalltaN moved, as an amendment, to leave out all the word' after " That," and to fubflitute, " Sir t bridopher Hawkins be expelled." After debating fonie• time, Mr. Bankes's amendment was, we underilood, (for the doors remained doled during the remainderof the difctifflon) negatived without a divition- Th e original motion for an Addrels to his MajeflYr pray' ing hint to dire& the Attorney-General to profecute Sir C. Hawkins, was carried, as were alto fimilar motions for the prolecution of eighteen perform of lie Committee of the Elefors of Penryhn, who had fixed the price for which the votes were to be 0) 1 4 and who had invited Sir C. Hawkins, by a deputatio n from their body, to porthole them. al I. was mereitby byrain Hcrbert, that Moor, accomplice in the trancaelion, but who had given evidence before the fele& Committee of the Houk" , Commons, fitoold alfo he profecuted by order of 1-lotife. This motion was refitted on the gook' ° h. having. alleady given evidence before the C.ln•
