The Levant Trade may, like many other topics of eotnosertial fpeeulation, be highly valued ; bat is ivii.ai far. as it relates to this Country, heft to. nothing. Gentlemen will give me credit fir this ffatent k es, *ben they hear that the whole of the Ilritifis manutaaures exported to the Levant, dirt ies deo war, does not exceed the cum of i ti,oosh and that this is to be taken out or the ag, gregate &- Obit , of twenty-few millions. The trade of inset Britain is nothing, when compared with the .cif other countries to the Levant. It is chiefly fop plied by the South of Europe, and it mull remain with the fouihern countries from the nature of its articles, and the facility of communication and in tercourfe. With refpeet to the North 6f Europe, :it has certainly been prieclly in the poffeffion of 'the Dutch, yet the Dutch have bad no rettleasent in the Mediterranean.—Why, then, it may be sit ed. did the Dutch fucceed in cultivating this particular branch of Trole ? I Rawer, becaufe their policy was much wirer than ours.

Alter eimfidenng whakbas been given up by the Treaty, it *mains for Me uti fay a few words on thole polfellioqs which we are to retain; and in what I have, Sir, to offei am the fubjed of Ceylon and Trinidad, I hope I 1441 not be thdtight to over-rate thefe two Wands. *hen I call them two great n ava l R at i ons of the Parts of the world to which they belong. Ceylon in every point of view cannot be too highly appreciated. It contains ports fo capacious and fecure, that the whole of the navy and commerce of Great Britain might ride with cafe and fafety in them. It is alfo in its native produdioas of I imrnenfe value, and holds out a pofition to *lnch our Indian army might retire if neceffary, and de- 1 fy the attempts 6( the united force of the world. Thug the very objed, which above all others we fhould from our duty and intend prefer, we have gained by this treaty. Trinidad is alfo a naval Ration of very conflderable importance, affording not only a fecure retreat•forotir navy,but is lo very pteduftive and fo healthy, as to induce its to le. led and appropriate it to ourfelves in preference toevery other polreffion in that quarter. Thus, • sir, Confidiring the refults of the' ar ; confidering all our old peffeffions with our acquired territory, I fay if the term glory is not to be taken into the account by Come Gentlemen, that we have at lead made an honourable Peace. (A loud cry cf Hear !) I fay, if it is not in all refpefts as advan tageous as you could with, it cannot, however, be I denied that it is honourable. Let it be compared l with the laft five Treaties of Peace which have been made • and then, when all the circumflances ' 'are dily We:ighed„let Gentlemen form an eftimate ' bf its merits.! Let it be compared with the treatica of Ryfwick, of. Utrecht, of Aix-la Cha pelle, of Paris, and of Verfailles ; add let it be rem2tnbered that the relative (tate of this country With that of the contraftiag parties, both at thefe Periods and at prefent &mild lie fairly canraffed. By.t*o of thefe peaces the country gained nothing. LI need. fcarcely mention Wore of Ryfwick and AixAkChapellt. By that ofVerfitilles we loft very ionfiderably, for we were deprived of our Amen can Colonies and Tome valuable poffeffions. It was Only by the Peace of Utrecht In I 713 and that of Pitis'in 1763, that we gained any thing.

Auftria, Ruffle, and Prullia have had a very cinifiderable addition by the divillon of , Poland ; and the grit Power in partipl.tr augment• ed in a fopariordegree bath her extern oftemtory, and her population, by the annexation of Venice to her dorninioes. In appreciating the power of France, we mull confider the diminution fuftained by her commerce, the ruin of her manufactures, and an incalculable loft of wealth; while, if we confider the real hectare of the fubliantial power cf Great Britain, it will be found in proportion to the continental inertia of France. Under this inipreffion allow nw, Sir, for a moment to confi der the poffeffions of Great Britain as they were previous to the war; and Aril, in taking an efti 'male of tin; etporte of British manufiteurst to eitAKFTAT4 OrAiliNflfir or I Peace, I" filiti Footint td' i g t 4006 • ,• while they are ire* left; doting the three fall yea r. of 'war than - 346t.oced. Our imports front On. tame qriarter were, Oaring ,the fame p!rind•. 3, 8 17,0001- in pelt% and e,rot,oeol. in time war. I alto find, by referring to the proper /loco •ments, that - our exports to tit EaR Indies *cr., during the three lift years of peace, 30 83,coo: and during the left three years of war 5,6t7.0001. The amount of oar exports to the United States of America is (tat more furprifing, making in th fame periods of peace 3,694,0001. and in the farqe periods of war no lets than 6,232,00a1. With refpea to the Continent of Europe, the total of our exports, was in the firft inftance. 1,330,0001. and in the latter, 2, 545 ,0001 . Front thefe fiatements, refpeaing which, authenticated as they are, there cannot exill a doubt, it appears that the commerce of this country, as applied to our old poffeffions, has been nearly doubled in Come inflances, and has had in all an augmenta tion of one third. I beg, Sir, to refs this the more, as it is neceffary to confider the increafe of our'trade, with the decreafe of that of France.— In calculating the power of both countries, as it Mould poffefi weight in the general fcale, it is but fair to enter into a comp ar if on o f their re fpedtive navies, and here the bell and molt candid mode, that prefents itfelf is to tale them as they flood at the commencement and the end of the war ; on •the ill of February, :793, and on the 11l of October, 180 I.— On the at of February, 1793, the Britilh Navy confined of /35 fail of the line, and t 33 frigates; and on the ift of Odlober, 18ot, it cons prtfed ros fail of the line, and 277 frigates. The Navy of France was, at the commencement of the war, compofed of 8o fail of the line and 66 frigates, and at the conclufion it confined of 39 fail - of the line and 3s frigates. This difparity is fo ftriking and extraordinary, both in the navy and commerce of the two countries, that it muil be attended with the effeas I with to point out in the relative fitnation of general affairs. It has in deed been Paid, that France will give up her whole attention to recruit her navy, and I give full ere. dit to the affertion. She will, no doubt, with and exert herfelf to accomplifh an object fo very de- Grable for the accumulation of political power; but I cannot help obferving that, whatever her efforts May be, there are two points in the ar. dooms talk, which are well entitled to our con fideration. The firfl is, the number of years the muff be employed in building Chips to make her naval efiablifhment equal even to what it was, and the fecond is the number of !hips necefrary to be built, in order to enable her to enter into a competition with this country. All Who examine this Coble& thoroughly will have no objeftion to give to Prance a great many years, and afterward; to take the chance of a war with her. We (hall not be employed in building of drips, but in making of icemen. It is with the enervate of our commerce that our navy will al ways encreafe. France wrn, no doubt, make great exertions for the purpote, but whether a concert will take place in the courfe of eight or ten years I will not pretend to ray; bat, if renewed then, on the part of this Country, it will be re newed on advantageous terms. If a diverfion on the Continent is of any importance, you have no chance of it now; but there is a chance it may be obtained at that period. We conclude a war now, found in our navy, found in our energies, found in our refaurces. I hope now that the conteft is finifhed, we Stall purfue a proper line of conduct both to France and the Continent—a conduit marked at once by firmnefs and by conciliation."— His Lordthip concloded his fpeech by ;NUM's to the great and happy change which bad taken place in the Rate of the country, by the fettle:sent of the Northern difputes, and the fignature of Preliminaries of Peace with France. Mr. T. GREW/ILL, (aid, that the part ofihe No. bie Lord's fpeech relative to the reftoration of Inc, narchy in France, did not at all come before him as Matter worthy of notice. Such an idea, that the war had been carried on for that purport, never had entered his imagination. He agreed with the Noble Lord, in what he (aid had been the objet of the war, but he contended, that when two countries h ad been in a difpute, when the quarrel came to be cleared up, there had always been a reference to the fituation of each.—That this was the cafe, in the preterit ipft2nce, he could out per. ceive. On the contrary, each had done the belt for Welt' which it could, at lea;+ it was laid In, and lorry was he to fay, that France had dun ..: iufinitcly better in the Peace thin England. This was a Get •, and the Noble Lord mull be confcious, act withflanding all he had Paid, that the Peace was glorious for - Prance, but degrading to E;: s ..

He bad no hortility to Covent:tient, but he was not to be deterred from doing his duty in cenfuring the late meafures. Minifters bad dune wrong without doubt : in place of diminifhiog the danger they have increafed it, and certainly theta Preliminaries of Peace bore him out in his affer. thin; every thing we have taken, every ()hied, fare one, of the war has been abandoned, and we are forced to fit down contented, as it was infinuated, with two lands.
