PARL IA MENTii A r PROCEEDINUS. HOUSE OF LORDS, FRIDAY, FEB. z. Counfel were heard at lonic length relative to the Scots Appeal —Hamilton and others v. Geddes, via. Mars. Adam and Alex ander, on the part of the Appellants ; Mari. Romilly and Horner, for the Refpondent. After which Mr. Adam, as leading Counid for the Appellants. Their Lordlips deferred the further confederation of the Cafe till to.morrow. It was ordered, on the motion of the Stamp of EXETER, that the Lord Bilhop of Rochefter be requefted to preach before their LordAtips, at the Collegiate Cilurch of Waminfter. on Wednefday the soth inflant, in; the day appointed by hls Ma jelly's Proclamation for a Gcnetal Fait, &c. "I he Bile on the Table, all of a privz.tz lo:al defcription, were torwarded in their refpcetive Lord HAWKESBURY moved that this Houfe do now adjourn. Ent DARNLEY role, not, he Paid, to typo& the motion, but merely to Rate what he conceived to be the reafon for the Noble Lord propofing, that the Houfe fhould meet to morrow, namely, that the ad ditional Papers relative to the queftion with Spain, were expelled then to be ready to be laid upon the Table. In Rating that he did not mean to oppole the motion, he begged it to be underftood that he could not at all reconcile the condua of the Noble Lord, and of his colleagues in office, in now within to pufh this matter to to early a difcuffinn, to the ef left even of taking precedence of another bufinefs, of which be (Lord Darnley) had given notice, and which undoub:edly yielded in intereß to none, with their previous proceedings and ideas on this eubjelt. All the correfpondence—all the papers at all con netted with the Spanifh queflion, were in their power and knowledge, and in the power and knowledge of none elle. They ought at the beginning to have laid on the Table every paper which was at all effen tial to the forming of a fair judgment on the quef tion. They did lay fuch papers on the table, and Noble Lords on the fame fide of the Houfe with him (Lord Darnley) made no objeftion to them, nor de mended any farther produftion. They were willing to have formed their judgment on the quetlicin, on the evidence which Minifters themfelves had thought fufficient. Now, however, Minilters viewed the matter differently, and they had themfelves moved for additional papers. To this his Lordfbip laid he could have no objeflion ,• but he muff be forgiven laying that the condo& of Noble Lords on the other fide, in this refpeft, did not correfpond with that de fire fir a fpeedy difcullion of the bufinefs which they had been fo eager to profefs ; at all events he could not fee on what grounds their own delay, or want of preparation, ought to be efteemed a reafon for poftponing the motion on another; mportant fubjeft of which he had formerly given notice. He rather con ceived the condua of NobleLorda in Adminiftration, as a fervile imitation of the proceedings in another Houfe, which it was unbecoming the dignity of that Houfe to follow, unlefs on moil fubftantial and ne ceffary grounds. Lord MULGRAVE expreffed his furprife at tome of the obfervations which fell frmn the Noble Earl. With refpeft, how ever to the Papers and do cuments in queftion, he would firft fay, that they were more voluminous than he had-formerly occa fion to apprehend, making a quantity of not lets than 70 printed pages. 'Every exertion was ufed to get the papers ready for prefentation that day, but it WAS found imprafticable ; and it was tithed the Houfe lhould meet to-morrow, for the purpofe of laying the Papers on the table, with the earlieft pot fible opportunity. With relpell to the blame which the Noble Earl teemed to impute to him, for his con duit on the occafion, he mull fay, be thought no blame could fairly be imputed to him , either for what he had done in the tirli initance, or in the fub- fequent proceedings. He had certainly, according to what he had profetfed, laid e very information be fore the Houfe, which he thought necelfary, for the due underitanding of the fubjed. He had profeffed his anxious with to have the fubjee fully and com pletely before Parliament and the public, and on th..t principle he afted. The idea of producing ad ditional information, it fbould be recolleied, did not originate with him ; it was deemed, upon maturer cordideration of the topics, to be necelfary by other perfons, and in other quarters. In conformity, therefore, with the with to have every degree of information which may be deemed necelfary before Parliament and the public, it was, that he had propofed the produeion of the additional docu ments ; and this, with as little delay as poilible ; in which view, and with reference to an early difcalion of, and decifion upon the fubjee, it was propofed to meet to-morrow. Such an attack upon Miniliers as that proceeding from the Noble Earl he had never yet heard of. He had heard of attacks upon Mini- Acts fur withholding due information, in the firlt in- Rance, And pertinacinufly refuting it afterwards ; bn: never, till at day, did he hear them blamed fur wilting to give every poff.l.le info:ma:kr: upon a fubjeft. He had heard O. Attack. upon Minitiers, for sating to urge a pt.:mature difetiflinn of parti cular topics ; but never till then did he hear any Minifters arraigned tOr poßponing the day, in order to afford a foil and ample interval for deliberation. With refpea to a Noble Earl's idea, that a with ex- Med with his Majefty' . s pi dent Minifters, to introduce a fer vile imitation on the part of that Honfe, of the proceedings of the other Houfe of Parliament, it was entirely unfounded. Did Rich a dare marafeß itfelf in an obvious with to give their Lordthips as full and complete information upon the fubjeEt in quellion as that which was propofed to be given to the other Houfe ? Did a line of proceeding, oh violin,- intended to enable that Houfe to difcufs and decide upon the fubjeft, or at leaft as early a day as the other Houfe, argue a with to make their Lord fhips the fervile imitators and followers of that Houfe ? Certainly not. So much for the affertion of the Noble Earl on that head, and the with to meet to-morrow being in arid conformity to every principle laid down by his Majeßy's Miniflers in that Houfe for their condo& ; with refpeft to the Cubic& in queftion, he did not fee haw any Noble Lord could confitkently objeft to the proceeding. The Earl of DARNLEY did not, nor could he ever have intended to complain that too much infor mation had been afforded. He would fay, however, that it was the duty of Minifters to have known what papers were requifite for the difeutlion of the queftion ; and that they should have come prepared with them in the fira intlance.—Adjourned to next day. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. STURGES BOURNE moved, that the Speaker do iffue his warrant for new writ for the 'eledlion of 'Members for the following places, viz. ttr Kirkaldy, dtc. in the room of of Sir James St. Clair Erfk:ne, no* Earl of Rofslyn, called up to the Houfe of Peers.

Reported the Malt Duty, the Peußon Duty, and OLiaralitioc Bills.--Ordered to be engroffed. ORDER OF THR DAY. The Houfe having refolved into a Committee of Ways and Means, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER role, and gave notice, that he would take an early r tunny of naming the day when he mould bring forward the W end Means fur the fcrvice of the year. At prefent he mould n. ve, " that, in part of the Supply granted to his Majetty, a fum of two millions be m.fed by loan upon Exchequer Bills."—The motion was agreed to, and or dered to be reported. LOYALTY LOAM. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave notiee,that he fhould, on Monday nest,propore tome relolutions te the Houle on the fubjeel of the Loyalty Loan. MIDDLESEX ELECTION. Lord MARSHAM role and laid, that he flated on a former day, his intention of fubmitting to the Hottfe, this day, the manner in which he would pro: ceed upon this tilbjed. It was then his intention, he laid, to examine witneffes at the Bar on the part of the late Sheriffs. But fince that time, he understood thofe Gentlemen had altered their mind, and did not mean to call any witneffes. In order, therefore, to give the Houfe time to form the fiilleft opinion upon the evidence before them, on this fubjeft, he trutted it would nit be deemed inconvenient, if he moved to poftpone the further confederation of the bufinefs till T'iefday next; conceiving he did, and as he was convinced the Houle muff, tiny a deliberate decilion would be an objea much more defirable, than any expedition that could be accomplifbed by deciding this night. He therefore moved, that the further proceedings on thisfubjeft be pullponed tillTuelday." Mr. FOX rofe, not he faid to objed to the day propofed, but to (fate, in a few winds, his own opi nion as to the mode of proceeding fuggefled by the Noble Lord. The Noble Laid had laid it was not the intention to examine any witneffes at the bar, on the fubjed : but he united whenever that Houle was called en to exercife a jurifdidion, a criminal jut& diftion too, that it would found its deci fi ons on evi• dence whic hl it had itfelf heard, and not merely upon the evidence heard by others elfewhere. If, indeld, as he underftood from the Noble Lord's intimation, the late Sheriffs had no objeftion to admit the evidence before a Committee againit them, certainly there could be no °Nation, on the part of the Houfe, to accept that evidence as part of the grounds for its own decifions. But not calling evidence as to any thing already proved before a Committee, and calling no evidence to their exculpati .n now, were, in his own mind, two very diftiaa con fi derations. He was decidedly of opinion, that if any matters had come to their knowledge, for their own exculpation, even fence the decifion of the Committee, it would be per. fatly open for them to bring forward fuck evidence. The SPEAKER reminded the Houfe, that it would be informal to fuller any further converfation on this flibjed, without previoufly reading the Order of the Day—which having been done, Lord MARSHAM explained, that he was given to underltand, in a converfation with the Counfel employed on this occafion, that the Sheriffs would be contented with the evidence contained in the Re port, and within the laft few moments, it was inti mated to him, that, on their own part, they meant to decline calling any witnens. He underftood fur ther, that what they intended at firft to fubmit to the confederation of the Houfe, arofe out of a proceeding which took place, fubfequent to the diffolution of the Committee, whole report was in queltion. This, however, he now learned, they did not mean to perfift in. Mr. FOX Laid, that his objedion would not be re moved unlefs their In declining it fhould appear to be their own at and choice. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQU ER role, not to make any objeftion to the Noblerd's motion, nor to delay the Houle now by any ar gument upon the fubjed itfeif. He rofe merely to exprefs his fentiments in the &It inftance, ref petting a principle avowed by an Honourable Gentleman over againft him (Mr. Fox) ; namely. that the Houle, when called on to exercife its jurif didion on thisfitbjeft,fhould not be fatisfied with the evidence taken ellewhere, but lhould examine evi dence for its own fatisfaEtion. Againft filch a prin ciple, he begged to proteft, in the fir( inliance, as contrary to the citablifind ufage of Parliarocot, ways before, and ever finee the paffing ref Mr. Cren• • vine's AR in the year r 770. Previoutly to that time it was the contlant ufage of the Houle, in deciding upon matters reilieding contefted eleaions, to form its judgment upon evidence taken lactate its Com• mittees, and not to examine evidence to the rime points at its bar. The Grenville AEI created the firft alteration in the law and ufage of Parliament upon this head—and it mull he recolleded, that a principal alteration made by that Aft was, that the Committees for invetligating fuch queflions mull be chofen by ballot, mull examine all evidence on oath, and mull ihemfelves be fworn to aft and dscidejuilly• to the bell of their opinion. The Eloufe then Purely would not be lefs inclined to accept theevidence taken before a Committee fo folemnly bound, now, than they would be to accept evidence before a Committee not fo bound, previous to the palling of the Grenville Aft. The precedents only in which the Houle did aft in any degree at all different from this principle, were the Shoreham cafe, the Lifkeard, and the Great Grit:Ay. In fib: Cricl:lade cafe fame filch proceeding was propofed, and the Houle adjourned the confideration of that cafe from time to time, in order to fearch for precedents, but came to no final clnifion. His motive for troubling the Hoare at all on the prefent occafion, was an camel will: to uphold the charafter and piivileges of Parliament, and to guard againfi any innovation which might tend to alter its eflablithed forms of roceeding, or dim', nifh thofe powers it had always enjoyed and exer cikd. He had no objeftion to concur in a motion, having for its objeft to give thole Gentlemen further time till Tuefday, tolnake up their minds—bu' his objeft was not fo much the accommodation of had:- viduals, as to maintain the privileges of the Hoirfc. itfelf. Mr. FRANCIS hoped, in the mean time, that Gentlemen who fhould come to vote upon that quef. don, would come fully prepared to make up their minds upon the fubjeEt, by rendering themfelves .af ters of the whole evidence upon the cafe. Lord NIARSHAM'S Motion was then agreed to, and the former Sheriffs, Rawlins and Cox, ordered to at tend at the Bar of the Houfe on Tucklay next. PUBLIC I'ORCI. Mr. WINDHAM sequeßed to know in what Rate of progrefs the papers were for which he had moved fame days fince, refpeEting the increafe of the Public Force, as they were not yet laid before the Houle, and as, without due time for their perufal, the Houfe would not be prepared for dircullion on the motion of which he gave notice fume days fince. The SECRETARY at WAR laid, he could not correelly fay, at this moment, in what Rate of pro. grefs the papers were, but be fhould be prepared to give the Honourable Member an anfwer by the next meeting of the Houfe.
