On the moticu of Mr. W. SMITH, the Report of the Debtors Relief Bill was taken into conflderation, which was confirmed by the Houle, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time on Monday. On the motion of Mr. Leto n,the hills Controverted Eledion Bill was ordered to be read a fecund time :his day fe'onight. On the motion of Mr. 11. ADDINGTON, the ll:miring Or ders of the Day were difyofed of. TRINIDAD. Mr. CAN m tan rote to make his proniifed motion. Circumitances, he faid, which he did not think it 1 proper or neceffary to explain, had prevented him from taking part in the important dircuflions which had recently taken place. But although he had ' been precluded from exprelling, except by his vote, any opinion upon the peace, yet as it had been concluded, and had received the fandion of Par liament, there could be but one fentiment, and but one duty attached to every Member in the Houfe—that was to contemplate it with a view to make the belt of the fitnation in which it placed the country, and particularly to improve thofe ac quifitions which we had been fortunate enough to retain. It was with this view he had called the attention of thejioufe to the fituation and circum (lances of one of thole acquifitions—the Wand of j Trinidad. He would not deny that the confider ation to which his attention had been firft direded upon this fnbjed, was the connexion it had with another fubjet much difcuffed in the Houfe, and on which he had always entertained a very de cided opinion ; but in what he ibonki this day propofe he fhould not be offing from feelings of his own. but on the recorded fade of the kioulto as contained in the fcfolut _ tons and Addreffes re ' maining on its Journals on the lubjea of the have trade. If, therefore, any Gentlemen were impress fed with an idea that in what he had to propofe; it would be neeelftry to revert to difctifiions which had before divided Parliament, they would be mit: taken—ite had no inch intention. Retaining as firongly as ever his opinions on the general meal. • lure of the flave trade, he was not CO anxious as to engage in it combat, the refult of which might be doubtful, or to employ arguments which }ad already been liicccfsful. If any Gentleman fop• pored he had theft/I:Men defire of appreciating the importance of the acquifition we had made by the polled - ton of that ifland, they were millaken ; he had no objet but that of reaklog it more va luable to this country than it could plainly be by applying to the cad fyftem of colonization. If any Gentleman imagined that he had the fmallefl wifh to embarrafs the views of Government with re fped to that ifland, they were millaken : he could alTure them, if the fubjed had been to have been dircuffed under that Adminifiration which had the glory of making the acquifition, in- Read of that which had the glory of retaining it, he thould have thought it his duty to have fubmit ted to the Houfe a iimilar motion. It might be contended that this svas a Wind's in which it was not necelfary for the Houfe to interfere, and that it ought to be left to the Executive Govern. ment ; to this objection he thould anfwer by a de tail of what had paired upon the fubjea. Soon af ,to the tin ning the Preliminaries of Peace, a re p ort was circulated, certainly with the knowledge ofGo vernment, relative to certain lands in Trinidad. It was a report which made a confiderable imprellion, and excited the fpcculations and avidity of thofe who had large capitals. About the fame time a notice had been given by a Right Hon. Gentle. men, which teemed to imply an intention of rail. itig a pecuniary fupply by the fate of certain Crown Lands in the Illands of the Weft Indies. Putting there circumfiances together, it had occurred to him that Trinidad mutt be one of them, and be had diked whether there was fuch an inteution with refped to Trinidad, and had received an an fwer, not altogether fatisfadory, but certainly .a fair one • he had aiked w h et h er b e f ore f uch plan thould be carried into execution, it would be fub mitted to the Houfe ? the anfwer lie had received was, not that it would not be fubmitted to Parlia ment, but that there was no neceiiity for fo doing for the present. Now what was the fituation of Parliament ? The titbit& was not out of the hands of the Houle of Commons, becaufe there flood on the Journals of the Houfe an Addrefs to his Ma jefty,intreating him to take fleps to lead gradually to the termination of the Slave Trade. If there fore the Illand of Trinidad was to be placed in an immediate (late of cultivation, the Slave Trade would not only be encreafed, liut the gradual abo lition of it removed to a period, the didance of which was beyond calculation. Had not the Houfe then a right to take the fubjed into eon& deratien, by way of warning to the Throne, that the cultivation of Trinidad, without limitation, would lead to that which it had been the object/ of the prayer of the Houle, as contained in its Ad. drefs, to avoid ?—lt appeared to him the Houfe had a very Prong duty to perform ; all he whiled was a delay till the fubjea could be fully difeuffed in Parliament, and till it !hold be fettled upon mature deliberation under what reftridions and limitations the importation of Negroes from Afri ca to the !nand of Trinidad fhould I.e carried on. This the Houfe of Commons owed to is own repu tation, and was bound as effectually as it could, by prayer to the Executive Governmen', to deter the making of any grants which fhould faedion the expenditure of capital by speculators, till it fhould be feen on what footing the Colony was to Rand. The fubjeEl appeared to him to divide 4t fell into two heads—firil, How far the Houfe of Commons had pledged itfelf not to create or gr a.. ly augment the Slave Trade; and how far the cul tivation of Trinidad would have a tendency to augment it? fecondly, what quetlion of policy %Sas involved in one or the other of thofe confider;_ tions. With reiped to the first point, namely, the degree in which the Houfe was pledged, he thould take the liberty of defiring a refolution of the 21 of April, 1792, might be read. ( fhe Clerk of the Houfe then read the Refolution, the purport of which was, that the Slave Trade thould be gra dually aboiifhed). The next thing he whited to have read, was an Addrefs to his Majelly, on the 4th of April, 1797, praying dais Majeftys to take filch rneafures as might be needfary for gradually abolifhing the Trade, and his Majefty's gracious Anfwer, affuring the Houle he would comply with their defire. (The Addrefs and Anfwer were aliti read by the Clerk). The Honourable I Member adverted to the dircuMons in Parlia. I ment, which had led to the proceedings jolt read, obferving that upon the fubjed of the Slave Trade there bad been various ilruggles between thole who brought forward the queition of its abolition, and thole who retitled it ; but the Refolution in 1792, was not only founded upon the :diem of thole who had uniformly fupported the abolition, but alfo of thofe who till then had never leen any propofition to which they could give their :akin.— The refolution of 1792 had been moved by an Hon. Friend of his, not now in his place, who was as friendly to the intereffe of the colonies, ls.eitHihooluft Wid e , ads o r r he w acvei a e s ve a bed dm ben.y it th te w d eitHo t h o h aup i r s ep, M r ajefi y's and to colonial c u l t i vat i on , as any man who ever a o s ba it t w io a n s , C f n 4 a o t t u u i n n r c a th i l but particularly by thofe who had taken no part in thi dirculTion. Ths Addrefc tin 1797 had been
