The Report of the Scotch Judicature Bill was brought up, and agreed to; after which an order was maic for recommitting the YR on the fecond day after the rrci.k. Lord GRENVILLE moved, that the Royal Family Annuity Bill lhould be read a fecond time the firft day after the Reeds. The Bills on the Table were paffcd in their refpcdtive Rages. EXPORTS AND IMPORTS. Lord AUCKLAND, in moving for an Account of the Exports and Imports for the laft twelve months, took occatton to advert to the tecent change in the Government. It was not for him, he obferved, to enter into the reafons which induced his Majefly to difmifs an Adminiftration which poffeffed the confi dence of Parliament and the country. His Lordfhip drew a flattering pielure of the commercial profperity of the country, amiconcluded with moving for the Accounts above gated. Lord WESTMORELAND could not avoid . con gratulating the Houle upon the flattering flatements of the Noble Lord. ' It proved, at leall, that the late Minihers had not, on their acceffion to office, found dilapidated refources and a ruined country. FXPLANATiON. Lord HAWKESBU RY moved that the Houfe, at its riling, thould adjourn to Wednefday fe'nnight. Lord GRENVILLE Paid, that he did not rife for the purpofe of offering an amendment to the motion of adjournment, but to (late, as their Lordfhips well knew, thole circumaances in the flotation of public affairs, which he found it receffary to bring before their Lord/hips. He rote for the purpofe of (biting, as far as he was acquainted with them, the- caufes which occafioned the recent changes in his Majefty's Councils. Their Lordfhips would recollee, that when fame of the Adeniniliration, of which he formed a part, found it neceffary to retire fix years ago, they did not explain the motives of their refignation. The confequence was, that mifreprefentations took place, and their charatlers fuffered. Were it only to avoid the recurrence of fimilar inconvenience, he for one would have felt it incumbent upon him to Rate what he conceived to be the point upon which his Majefty had thought proper to difpenfe with his Cervices. But, at prefent, he had a (Ironger claim to be heard. He wifhed to know in what reign it ever hadhappened that part of the confidential minutes were given to the pub. }ic ? Minifiers had given their advice in writing to his Majefty, and a garbled extra& of the advice In given found its way into a Public Pape?. Were there not Conllitutional grounds enough, by which a knowledge of that advice might have been obtained ? Might not thofe who were anxious to obtain it, have moved an Addrefs to know who gave fuch advice ? Or might they not have advifed his Majesty to communioete a copy of filch written advice to Parliament? He would alk if ever, in the hiflory of the country, a fimilar inliance badoccurred of fuch a garbled and unfair corn. munication? Their Lordfhips could not be furprifed if, under there circumfiances—if feeing efforts made to deftroy his charaaer by the moll unworthy and dif lioneft means—he felt it to be his duty to alk his Ma jelly's permiflinn to make fuch a (latement as he meant, with the indulgence of their Lordfhips, to fob. mit to the Houfe. He did think it his duty to prefent his Petition to his Majefly, and he fhould be guilty of ingratitude, if he omitted to (late that it was received with the fame goodaefs and juftice which he had al ways experienced from him. He felt the indilpen. fable neceffity of entering into fuel explanation, and he had his Majefty's gracious permillion to make it. In petforming this neceffary talk, he would endea vour to difcharge it with all poflible rc Ilse& and pro piety, for he had no complaints to make. The vin dication of his charaCter was the peat ()hie& he had in view. At the period he adverted to, their Lord fhips knew that the great and illtiffrious Statetinan who was then at the head of his Majetiy's Councils, thought it his duty to propofe that Parliament thould grant great indulgences to the Catholics of Ireland. uch propofals not meeting aid; the approbation of his Majetly, that great Statefman withdrew from the Government, and his Lordship accompanied him. The fame opinion was alio entertained by his great rival, that great luminary whole lots the counts y had to deplore in the courfe of the year. his Laidthip was of a fimilar opinion ; and if he erred, it was in common with thefe, the two greateft Statefinen which any country ever produced. On three quell lions only did there great men agree during the courfe of their long political lives. Thefe were the Sinking Fund, the Abolition of the Slave Trade, and what is called the Cadtolic Queflinn. Two of tilde had been carried, the firli as loon as it was propored, and the fecond atter great delay, and having to eoccunter every fpecies of artifice and mifreprefentation. The third relied upon fuch grounds of jet Rice and policy, that he could not conceive how any one who under. flood the interefis of the country, could eppufe it. On a former occafion, he had factificed ob. jugs of ambition and gratification, and he was ready to make Inch facrifices again. He did it upon the principle that four millions of lubjeas were to he governed by conciliation and kindness, and not by intolerance and exclufion. Different overtures were afterwards made to him for his alliaance. His anfwer invariably was, that his Sovereign might com mand his fervices, but he never would relinquifh his privilege of fpeaking his mind on the queflion. An opportunity afterwards arofe, when the Catholics o f Ireland withed to have their cafe taken int o confider ;llion. They did him the honour of feleCting him to prefent their petition, which he willingly accepted. Upon the event of the motion which he then made, it was not neceffary for him to trouble the Houle with any obfervations. The majority who rejteled it could not be underflood as having given a lading pledge that they Would not accede ta it. A few months after this, the country wits deprived of the great llatcf:nan who was at the head of his Maje.fi's Councils. The King fent for him, under tilt impreftinn that he r.right lons in favour of Catholics. Far from it. Within thefe few days even, he had authority to fay, that they came into Council with their judgments unfet. tered. He would, at the fame time, acknowledge, that it was not their intention to prefs any meafures of that nature, except neceffity required it. He did entertain hopes that fuch a degree of farisfaetion might be given to the Catholics by his Majefly's Re prefentative in Ireland ; he did hope that they would. find that fecurity in the C , nllitution of the Cabinet, that the) would not find it necelfary to fir the crlef tion. His objeet, and the ohjeet of thofe who ailed with him, was to knit together all claffes of his Ma- jelly's fubjeets in that country, by a mild and conci• i liating Government. He entertained hopes, that fuch a fyltem would fuperfede the neeedity of agita ting the qriettion, particularly when it was known there were nbjeCtions to it in a certain quarter, that it would be firongly oppofed in Parliament, and that there was not any profped cf fuccefs for fome time. Accordingly they took meafures to prevent the revi- 1 val of the question, and they fricceeded lag year fymptoms, however, of that dillurbed date, which, in hi, opinion, could have been bell prevent. ed by that meafure, broke cu . To the honour of the N , u Du k e who I Noble were compofed, not by having recourfe to harfh meafures, but by civil jullice alone. The attention of Minifters was loon after called to the fituation of Ireland, by the reprefentations of thofe who had the heft means of afcertaining the Rate of the public mind in that country. Other circumstances bad alfo occur ed, which induced them to depart from the determi nation they had formed. The total de.ftrui2ion of the power of Pruffia, and the eftablifhment of the power of France, in points particularly dangerous to this country, made it the more nece ff ary tor them to,' do every thing in their power to strengthen the coun try. It was their duty to look to two contingencies —peace between France and the Continent, and a continuance of the war with England. What, in fuch a situation, would be their belt courfe of policy ? Would it not be to augment this force, and diminith whatever danger might be apprehended from any part of the Empire ? What more effectual mode could they adopt of doing that, but by purfuing fuch mea lures as would induce the fuperabundant population of that country to enlift in the army and navy of the Empire ? Such was the policy of Lord Chatham, with tepee to the Highlands of Scotland. That great Statefman recommended that every exertion firould be made to induce the people of that partica• tar part of the country, to engage in the fervice of I the United Kingdom ; and the happy confequences of his advice were loon evinced in the difappearance of ' every fymptom of difcontent and turbulence. Such, in fome meafure, was the Rate of Ireland at this day•—a country rifling rapidly in manufaCtures, in commerce, in agriculture, and more rapidly (till in population. He thought, and did Rill think, that the greateft fervice a Statefman could render a country, would be to conciliate and engage the po• pillation in defence and fupport of it. Until firth a t'yltem fhould be ellablifhed for Ireland—until the Gentlemen and higher orders of the Yeomanry thould have accefs to the army tins! navy, it was not to be I expeCted that they would give this fupport. Could I this be potlible where the exercife of their religi nil was I not fecured by law, but where it was dependent on the caprice and orders of one man, and the obedi ence of another ? It was to provide againfl thefe dangers, to repair this in:laice, that Minillets turned their arention to the fut)jeCt WI fummer, and that they determined to prop-life opening the army and navy to the religious diEnters of all denominations. With this view, he thought the meafure now before the other Hi.ufe neceffar y. There was alfu another reafon—they were not fo fuccefsful as they had before i been in preventing the agitation of the queftion. It was moll imprudently and unnect Warily brought for ; ward ; and he could not forbear obferving that, upon this occafion, the Catholics acted highly injurious to their own intereils, highly injurious to the interells of Ireland. Upon con:ultation 'with the Govern. merit of Ireland, it was deemed expedient to bring forward the meafure now pending in the other Houle. • I They were alto induced by other confederations. The law refpdling Catholics was different in England and Ireland. Fourteen years ago,' it was thought need . - fary to advife his Majelly, that certain indulgences , fheuld be granted to the Catholics of Ireland, who was pleafed to gracioufly recommend them from the Throne. The Parliament of that country, notwith• Randing any apprehenfions which might have rea- I fonably been entertained refpeCtir.g the Protetlant Eltablifhment, agreed to open the Army, and, as far as in them Lay, the Navy, to the Catholics. They paired the Bill, with the fubflance of which their Lordfhips were all acquainted. The offices of Commander in Chief, Matter General of the Ord nance, and General on the Stair, were alone excepted; to all other military employments they were eligible. Subject to thefe rear idions, his Majefty was enabled to give Commidions, both Civil and Military. Such were the words of the Al 9 to Catholics. In lime of i war, there was always one or mote naval Rations in Ireland, and whatever veffels were there were as much fobjeCt to the laws of Ireland, as they were to thole of England at Portfrnouth or Chatham. No initance, however, of Foch appointments or cortina Foos happened. Wir it, in confequence of this con. tradition in the la.c, was the [fate of the country at prefent ? In cafe of invalion, it perhaps might be necelfary to fitift troops from one part of the Empire to the other—an advantage which would fuperfede the neceflity of maintaining a great and onerous mi litary effablithment in both. If an Irifh regiment fhould be fu.'denly called over, the moment it !aided at Chefler or Liverpool, every Catholic Officer in it would be placed under the difagreeable neceflity of continuing to ferve in the daily violation of the laws and privileges of the country he came to defend. He would he called upon to do ads, every one of which might be queßioned, ant for which it might be demanded of hior, " Are you authorifed by law to do this t l ?" liras there any thing fo monffrous and abfurd to be found in the Legiflative Code of any country ? To apply a reme.ll to this manifeft incontinency, was the (Neel of the late Admioiftra tion ; but how was it to be done? Were they to adopt the words of the An of 1793. and fay that it was fit that Catholics fhould be :Mowed to enter into the army, but that they fhould only be admitted to the lower ranks. What was to be thought, if after having long and faithfully ferved the country, they were to have the door Phut upon them, and be told, Though you have long ferved me—though the foldiirs have confidence in your talents and bravery, yet aill there is fomething in your belief which ren ders i. iropoffible for me to truth you !" Was this the argument of a Statefman ? If in the happier days of 1793,• when Ireland was not fo likely to become the theatre of war as it now is, it had been found necef. fart , to make thefe conceitions to the Catholic:, the reafons for doing fo at this moment were infinitely Itronger. Every motive called upon their Lordthips to give the boon liberally, and to take care that the arength and fecurity of the country fhould not be pa ralized and fettered by local rettriaions. The next difficulty related to the naval fervice, which it was imputlible could be limited in the manner fettled by the Irith Ad. The objeef of the Milt Aft was to open the navy as well as the army; and, in order to facilitate that intention, inftruetions were fent from this country. As the law now flood, a fhip might be commanded in the harbour of Cork by Catholic Officers ; and were the in the courfe of fervice to be ordered to Portfmouth, the could not. It became necettary, therefore, in any Bill that was brought in, to open the naval as well as the military profeffion. There was one other point remaining, which it was impeflible their Lordfhips fhould overlook. In the year 1778, a law patted in Ireland, to enable the Pro teftant Diffenters of that country to hold employ. ments of any kind, civil as well as military, wi bout any relltinion. Here the law was quite different.— No Diffenter could hold a place without taking the facramental tett within a certain time. If the Irish law were adopted, he meant the law of t 793, would not the Engliffi Diffenter have a right to fay, " upon what principle of juflice do you exclude me, while you are a friend to the Catholic." For his part, he was fo much a friend to both, that he would have no diftialion made, as far as regarded naval or military employment. It was therefore their opinion, that if any Bill was brought forward, it fhould be fo framed as to include perfons of all religious perfuafions ; and fuch was the opinion that he, for one, thought it neceffary to fubmit to his Sovereign. In fubmit ting that meafure to him, the matt fcrupulous care had been ohferved. The draft of the difpatch to the LordLieurenant, relative to the communication which he was to make to the Catholics, was fubmitted to his Majetly, and met with his approbation. This draft recited, that by an Ad of the Ira Parliament, the army and navy were laid open to the people of that country, and did then propofe, that it fhould be in his Majetty's power to give commiffions, fubjea to a cer tain oath. They pointed out the difference between the law of 1793, and that which they meant to pro pole, and having done that, they conceived that they had done all that was neceffary. After fome objec tions his Islajelly gave his confent that the meafure fhould be propofed, and authority was given to the Lord Lieutenant to communicate, by his ,Cecre tory, to the heads of the Catholics, that the army and navy Ihould be opened to them. In that inter view it was afked, whether it was intended that the rettriaion reii:eoing Generals on the Staff Ihould be -done away? and it was anfwered, in the words of the difpatch, that it was. The Lord Lieu tenant's difpatch, Rating thefe circumftances, was fent to hit Majelly for his perufal, and returned with out any remark. The draft of another difpatch, in anfwer to this, was alto fent to the King, and returned without comment or oblervation, of any kind What were they to conclude from this, but that his Majetly approved of thefe difpatches ? Was it poili. ble to do more for the purpofe of afcertaining his opinion ? What mutt be their feelings then, when they fee libels circulated, in which it is affeited that they have deluded their Sovereign ! The meafure was pro. poled by Lord Howick, a man of as high and punc tilious honour as ever lived, and he would not have done fo if he had not conceived that he had full au thority to do it. That Noble Perfon came from the conference with a petted concktion, that he had per raiffion to propofe it. He was at the very time wak ing at the door to be admitted, and Lord Howick told him ditlinEtly as he came out, that he had au thority to:propofe the meafnre to Parliament. He had an interview with his Majelty immediately after, at v:hich he did n .t mention one ward upon the fubjea ; nor, on the other hand, was there a word Paid to him. He would Ale their Lordthips whether the circum (lances he mentioned did not authorife the ccmclu lion he had drawn from them? The Bill was ac cordingly opened by Lord liNvick, on Wednefday, the 4th of March ; and it was not until the t ith, that he underitoo I force mile mczini .n On that day l e learned they had- been minaken, and that his %jetty's confent would be withheld. Nothing nitre patted than exprefii ms of difappro. bation on one fide, aid of c, ncern on the other. Much difcutlion took place on the next day, among
