He Was of -opinion,' that the terms which had been offered, were more glorious and more advantageous to this country, than ;may that -had antecedently been made to her. The. linty had been broken of on account of Dalmatia and Sicily. In one part of the negotiation, Mime tia and Albania had been offered as an equivalent -tor Sicily; and he ahought,..fromuhe whole of the cireumflancet., they would have been filch ; and that we had thrown away a great peace es inc.-milder:icily as an Englifh Mitriller had llten reproached far' dif. regarding infttuCtinns he had never received. •' N Lord HOWICK, in explanation, (aid, he had eg prefsly (fated, that Lord Yarmouth went to France 'no the faith of the bails of vii pope/oil ; to carry a verbal anfwer to a verbal meffage ; and that he bad (hewn his full powers before the French Government had acknowledged that bafis. He was furprifed, therefore, the Noble Lord ftiould have thought it ne ceffary to make the ftatement he had done. Mr. MONTAGtJE regretted, that in the whole of this bonnets he faw the eonplete fuecefs of the 'machinations of France. The French Policy pet him in mind of the policy of the ancient Turks, which was " to make finer truces to fecure tnnqueds, and (hart wars to enlarge them." Confidering the cafe ifn this principle, we might find that the French had procured the benefit of a truce, and ufed it to blind oar Government. The origin of the Negotiation was owing to the death of that great Ratefman, Mr. Pitt, whir was ,the pilot who had weathered fo many amnia. He-thought he law that illuftrious State:- Mail contending with the Demon who endeavoured to entice Somnus did the pilot Unitises of old.

But he wattle** whether this coridna of Mr. Pitt was at alt limiter to that of,Mr: For ? Did 14. Fox diltruft the Demon ? Nn—he was earnenly defirous of malting peace, and of this defire the French had ' taken advantage. He lamented the death of Mr. Fox. He was acquainted with him, and valued him as a man ; bat during the twenty years that he had fat in that Haute, he had always differed with him in poll ':tics, and in all that time he had never altered his cotaduCt, which in there times of (hitting and return ing, was rather a angular inhance. As to the firft nvertuve, he Confidere& it as having come from Mr. 'Fox, Orr his letter had broke the ice. It was impof 'fade:that thofe glances at- peace which it contained, tottld etiap,e the notice of fifth a penetrating pond , die as Talleyrand.—He did not like the expreailn rtf perfeil attachment to the.man who had been the difturber cf Europe in the late wars.

When- the friendfhip of Mr. Fax and Talleyrand began, he could not fay. Per.. haps it was when Talleyrand was here, in Int, and: had" kindled the .fiames of war over Europe. He! would ph aver what bad occurred previous to the arrival of Lord - Yarmouth. He acknowledged that' Mr. Forbad moored the fophiney of Talleyrand in a clear and manly manner. But-was-it the policy of Talleyrand to obtain peace ? No: .Why then it was nothing better than a truce upon die principle.

And Why? !insure Rua Was not 'included in the Treaty. Here the Ho• tiottrable% Baronet went into detail to prove, that this counts . * 'MO have been perfectly jullifiable in coneluding a reParire .treaty, and infilled that Abe Treaty figned by d'Oubril was not ratified by the Emperor, of Merely becaufe the terms were not in thetufelvestiffiCiently advantageous, and not biCatife, the Treati Was not condnaed in concert with Crest 'Bailin. The Honourable Baronet there fore; felt MAIO juflified in concluding, that England could have treated Without Ruffia, and that it was theh Continent with expediency to make a fepartte ireace. For what was the only ground for a&ing in concert, merely the treaty of the s Ws of April, a 835, called the Treaty of Concert. He contended that it was a fpeCial treat* for a particular purpofe, and that purpofe coaling to exifl, would Gentlemen contend that the Treaty was any longer binding ? Ruffia did nut bring forth her powers in confequence of that treaty. Bhe.did not aft upon that treaty, but con& trait toil, in &atilt powers to D'Clgbril to treat fe parately. He had looked over all the papers conneft ed with that iffstednegotiation, and there was no. ibis g in theiii. that did not confirm his perfuafion that IPQnbril was fully authorized to treat feparately, and that the iefnfal to ratify was owing to the terms digital treaty, and not the principle of a (*- rate nygtciation. Why theti were the Houfe to be tqldtbat theinegodition, of no unfavourable nature to chi. want*, was broken off, not becaufe the terms were injurinds to us, but becaufe we were not per mitted to ea in ,concert with our ally; who had de ' termined ,t 0 treat diftinftly for himfelf.? He eritid one help malting. one remark on the bats, as dated' by hti. Foz, d 4 honourable to each country and its al lies:" he afked if a more vague and indefinite term could be, ufeeflo mark the bats of a treaty, than a wend fo entirely depending upon undefined opinion. The Honcurable Baronet then, at great length, en deavoured to (hew that France was not fincere in her Profeffed wifhes for peace ; that England hid been the dupe of credulity, anted upon by intrigue feign the commencement, as was fully inflinced in what he called the trick of the Affaffin, which gun Ur. Fox had afterwards fufpeiled to be a frick• and concluded by iufilling that, infincere as he believed Ta!leyrand was is his willies forbringing the negochtiin to an amicable ine, yet the terms were fuch as were entirely unworthy of the treaty, and in difcreet refufal they met with from his Majelly's Mi nifters upon the alledged neceffity of treating, in con. ccrt with whin no fuch necelaty appeared.— As to Praia; (he now felt the confequences of that narrow policy which Richelieu had given.birth to. and according : to the principles of which Elie bad fo uniformly afted. The fubjugation of the Houfe of AUltria :is the principle of that policy, and the Treaties of Weflphalia and Utrecht would be handed down as memorable piciofs Of it.
