At that wo-thirds of the King's Speech was em• 'ing out the necelEty there was for the • tuch a meafure. Even then, after die - union upon the fubjeft, there was, he largeß minority apinft it that was ever Honfe. And it was not finally agreed `,obert , Walpole, then one of his Ma- confidential Mininers, had pledged would Ihortly lay inch falls before rould moll fully jufiify him in having a treafure. The difclafure of there took place in two or three months after ly did bear him out i the affertion made. But now where can the analogy ze it not a (logic word upon the rub ,peech from the 1 hrone. Can the Hon. ' Gentleman oppofite Jcclare, that he l finds the analogy i n it.hat now taint In Ireland,lreland, ore ' what is likely to ex it l I—lf he does. that is an argu ment for the inqui r y, an d n ot aga i n ft it, a s th e Houle would then know u p on wh at groun d s th e y acce d e d t o 1 this extraordinary propofition, at a time when the neciffity of the cafe is fo far from being notorious, that every one of thole Gentlemen mon - intimately tonnelled with that part of t)- kingdom, have de clared, that as far as their own knowledge could ex tend, the country was completely tranquil, and was as well difpofed towards his Majefty's Government, as any county is England—Until Come inquiry *as made, or until form pledge was given that a Rate• ment, fimilar to that which Mr. Walpole had promif ed, and afterwards made to the Houle, fhould be given in the prefent inflame, be could not, continent ly with his duty, in the face of filch a precedent,agree to the patting f f this Bill. After the E;11 hasl been read a third time, Mr. MARTIN moved an Amendment to be in ferted in the Bill. Rating the reafon which had been affigned for the introdulion of fuch a meafure. He thought alfo that the law would not have that rata tary dial which the framers of it intended, if it did not operate upon every part of the United Kingdom. The very worn fort of machinations, and thole of the molt dangerous tendency, were thole which were car ried on by means of correfpondence from England to Ireland. If Soo difaffeaed men, for inflance, were to land here , they would not be punifhable by the provifions of Bill,unlefs its operations were to ex tend generally over the whole of the United King dom. The Union was effedted to very little purpofe indeed, if the different parts of the Kingdom were not now to be confidered as being altogether iden tified as one and the fame nation ; and certainly if they were to be fo confidered, the Bill fhould extend to the whole of the kingdom, or elfe not be palled at all. The Honourable Member concluded with read ing his amendment, which sits nearly as follows : " 1% hereas it is notorious that a traitorous con(piracy is now carried on between perfonsreliding in that part of the United Kingdom called Ireland and other per(ons refident in France," to be inferted before the words "be it therefore enaaed." The Honourable Member Paid that at leaft it was fair that fuch a rea fon fhould appear on the face of the Bill. The Amendment, however, was negatived with out a divifion. The Bill was then paned, and or dered to be fent to the Lords. WAYS AND MEANS. M. ALEXANDER brought up the Report of the Committee of Ways and Means. Some converfation took place between Mr. Fox and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, as to the par ticular period when the profits and intereft upon the new Loan would be fubjed to the operation of the Property Tar. The Chancellor of the Exchequer Rated, that while the Loan continued Scrip, it would not be futile& ; but the moment it Mould be tran ferred into flock, the dividends from that time would be liable to the Tax upon Property. Mr. HUSKISSON moved, that the Refolutions of the Committee fhould be read. Mr. JOHNSTONE lamented that there teemed but little difpofition, in either fide of the Houfe, to attend to the important fubje&s comprehended in the refolutions which were moved to be read. The ap proving of thole refolutions appeared in general to be confidered as a bufinefs of mere routine ; but he thought it was the duty of that Houfe to withhold their approbation, until documents had been brought forward fufficient to warrant their concurrence in them. Some accounts fhould be laid before the Houfe, among which he conceived the receipts and diffiurfements of loft year to be particularly requi lite. There was alto another document abfolutely necefrary ; he meant a dillind account of the Confo lidated Fund, before the Houfe could come to any rational determination refpeCting that complicated fubjeEt. He few that the Right Honourable the Chancellor of the Exchequer propofed, in his bud get, a Turn of one million on account of a debt due to the Eat India Company. They bad received a like ruin, he believed, about two years before.— He could not find in the papers hid on the table, or indeed, in any papers, that any allowance was made for the five hundred thoufand pounds which that Company bad engaged, at the renewal of their char • ter in 1793, to pay to the public. He wifhed to know why that fum was not fet off againft, and de dueled from the million, which the public were now about to pay to that Company? He had fume objec tions to offer to that part of the budget which re• ferved a fum of five millions for continental put.- pufes. Although his heart was not fo contraded as to with to ifolate this country entirely, and to render it indifferent to what was paging on the Continent, he could not approve of any projea which fhould tend to lavifh fueh an enormous fum upon fuch re mote powers as Ruffia and Sweden. He would have no objeEtion to concur with the Right Hon. Gentle man, if there was a profpeet of bringing Aullria and Profile to take a cordial and extenfive part in the combination that was expeeted; but the employment of the two Powers he had mentioned, which were geographically out of the sphere of immediate ac tion, appeared to him to hold out no reafonable prof pea of any poffible effeaual utility. He could only comp ire it, as to its inefficiency, with Come of tl.e filly projeCts of the agents of the late Adminifiration, where two bottles of treparberic ink and _coo guineas were to effeCt a counter revolution in France, and to put an end to the war. The firil refolution was then read and carried. Mr. FRANCIS recalled the attention of the Houfe to the Aft of 1793, by which the EaR India Company was bound to furnilh the fum of po,oool. in aid of the revenues of this country. This contri bution had never been furnithed by the Company but once; and now, it-iced of receiving it, this country was called upon to pay out of its own fi nances, by way of debt, to the Company. This was done at the time when the finances of the Company were reprefented to be id a moll flourithing condi tion. He would not take upon hidi• to alien, that the debt now in queflion was not really due : even fuppofing it was fo, he maintained that the arrears due by the Company, fince the year 1791, fhould be fet off againfi the prefent demand. He contended, that the Houfe had no right to pay this debt, for the exitlence of which they had no more than the word of the Chancellor of the Exchequer without any Parliamentary evidence of it being laid before them. If the statement given in the coutfe of laR Se ion was tirietly true, and that in reality the Company's debt from the country was nearly liquidated, then the legal confequence ought to be, that the fum now required to be advarce3 thould be dedueted. in order that the debt, now fu ne tr liquidation, Mould be finally extinguithed. Li:, therefore, nifhed to know whether this fum was meant is liquidation of the for mer debt? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER de clared hirnfelf rather unprepared for giving the Ho nourable G•ntleman a fatisfadory anfwei ; but he certainly did not propofe to vote this Turn' without referve, or without fubjeaing the Com2any to be called to an account for what may be due from its revenues to this country. The vote now called for had no relation to, much leis did it annul, any prior engagement ; but both the Hon. Gentlemen were minaken as to the purport of the Ad of 1793, which enjoined, that, after the Company fhould pay its dividends and expenr.,3, and have a furplus to a certain amount, then out of that furplus, it was to contribute half a million towards the general finances of the country, and be at liberty to apply the re mainder to the increafe of its dividends. This fub jed would beft be referred to a future difcuffion, when the (fate of the Eaft India finances fhould be brought before them ; but it Purely would be allow ed, that the revenue and refources of the Company may be very profperous, and yet, by the interven tion of two or three unexpeded wards, be rendered inapplicable to the aid of the national revenue. Mr. JOHNSTQNE agreed,' that the Company may have a juft claim upon the public; but what he complained of was, that after declaring that they had a furplus of a million, inflead of paying out of it what they owed to the country, the Houle fhould be called upon to difchsrge an old debt to them: The CHANCELLOR. of the EXCHEQUER ex plained, that the furplusfo often mentioned was only Rated to arife out of the territorial revenues of the Company, of which Parliament had no right to claim any &are, until it was brought home by invellments, and all the charges on it paid. That indeed may be made the fubjed of a future claim ; but as to the ter ritorial revenue, Parliament had no immediate right , to interfere with it. SALT TAX. Mr. CALCRAFT objeded to this Ta:, as bea r ing particularly hard upon the lower allies of the people. It was of all taxes he leak produdive, and the one which brought the 'calk money into the Exchequer. It was extremely impolitic to fubjea an article of ge neral ufe to fo enormous an impofition as fifty per cent. The Tax upon Horfes employed in hufbandry he alto confidered as extremely objedionable, inaf moch as it went to tax what might be denominated the inftruments ufed in raifing articles of the firft neceffity. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER begged leave to exprefs his total diffent from all the grounds of objeaion advanced by the Hon. Gentle man who (poke laft. He had not propofed the tax upon Salt without due confideration, as it was a tax in his opinion the leak burthenfome, and the molt produftive, at the leak expence, which could be de viled, and nothing thould induce him not to perfe vere in it. Mr. SHERIDAN was afloni(hed at the pmemp tory declaration which the Right Hon. Gentleman had made, of perfevering in the tax, than which none could be more grievous, more opprelfive, or more grinding upon the lower orders ; for as to thofe of a ifuperior condition in life, it affeded them not at all. —For the poorer claire: of fociety it was that article which they could lets afford to have taxed of all others, as it was a principal ingredient in their food of every kind. There were Tome articles of their confump tion, fuch as potatoes, which were abfolutely un wholefome without it. He referred to a Right Hon. Friend of his (Mr. Rote) ; he begged pardon, he be lieved he ihould fay the Right Hon. Gentleman, though he had no objedion to confider him as his Right Hon. Friea4 whether in his county (Hamp• (hire) a confiderable property had not been embarked, in the manufalure of falt, and large works ereded, under the expelation, that in confequence of the report of a Committee, the duty upon that article would be taken off entirely ? He could confider that report, if this tax should be eflablilhed, as nothing elfe than a ilratagem to trepan penple. The former Chancellor of the Exchequer admitted the propriety of that report, and the recommendation contained in it, and he did not fuppofe that he was difpofed to run down his authority now, whatever he might have done then. ' The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was is much inclined to thew every refpe& to the character of that Right Honourable Gentleman, as he (Mr. Sheridar) c mid pollibly be. The report to which he had alluded, had lain upon the table for four years, and that. Gentleman in the Houle, and yet had never been aCted upon. ConGdering how the tax was paid, the gradual confumption of the article, and the fmall expence in the collation of the daty on it, he thought it one of the molt proper which he could fubmit to Parliament. Mr. EGERTON, as Reprefentati;e for a county (Chefter) in which very conliderable Salt Works were eftablifhed, offered Tome objations to the tax, and referved to hill:dell* the right of giving it further oppofitinn in a future Rage of the Bill. Mr. KINNAIRD expreffed his difapprobation of it, and was of opinion it would confiderably add to the riling difgult of the people at the means which were refOrted to for carrying on the war. Mr. ROSE deaied that any property, at leaft any confiderable property, had been embarked in the manufature of felt in the county in which he re. filled. He could not admit that the collation of the new duty would be attended with the expences Rated by tome Hon. Gentlemen. So far from it, all the charges would fall upon the old duty, and every fhilling of the new tax w, old be paid net into the Exchequer. That collation only Rood at prefent at two per cent. Mr. CALCRA.FP differed from the Right Hon. Gentleman ; and maintained, that upon an average calculation of three years, the charges of collating the duties upon felt amounted to full ten per cent. HUSBANDRY HORS'S. Sir ROBERT BUXTON oppofed the Tax on Horfes employed in Hufbandry ; he thought it found ed on impolicy and injunice. On impolichlecaufe it would operate to the grcat detriment of a branch of our national indußry, of a ll others the mod effential to our wellbeing as a Sate ; on injuftice, beskaufe it would bear unequally on the fubjeft, nay, that it wont operate on only one elaA of people, the far men of the kingdom. Inaead of laying an additional tax of this fort, wh-- did not Gentlemen give up their privilege of franking, which would thew the people that the Members of thy Honk of Commons were ready to make facrifices in their turn. The Honour able Baronet ,deprecated the idea of She war having excited difguit among the public. He believed there never was a war, the neceffity and juaice of which were more univerfally felt and acknowledged. M.. WINDVAM could not help totally difagree ing wigs the Hen. Member as to the privilege of franking. This privilege was chiefly valuable as a feather in t/ie cap of the Members of that Houle, as a Parliamentary diftinaion ; but it was likewife of ufe in other views. The Members had frequent oc cation to write to their Conftituents, and their Con ftituents to them, which this privilege enabled thetas to do without inconvenience. Betide,, it conferred a power of gratifying innocent, and even laudable wiffies of accommodation, both on the part of the conftituents and individual friends of the Members & one gra tification which was enjoyed, iodepende b tly of a M inifter. It was alfo a privilege from which literature derived no trivial benefit, fince it enabled thofe to correfpond who would otherwife never cor refpond at all. Official people, who could frank for greater weights than individual Members, woad, he muff think, be ready to acknowledge, that fervices were rendered to literature by that privilege; at leaft be knew, that when he was in office, there were ori ginated and carried on, correfpoedencies betweey li terary men, winch never would have taken place bat for the facility which the privilege of franking af forded. --- the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER fup. ported the expediency of the privilege, but not alto gether for the reafoa s g i ven by t h e H on.i Gentleman who (poke let. The privilege was one that afforded a very great accommodation to the pnlAie. Tt en abled the Members to carry on the very important bufiners of their conftituents, and frequently they mutt have various and exterifive tranfadions to dif eufs. Hence the privilege was niit only a diftinaion, but a molt ufeful, if not indifpenfable appendage to the function r)f a Legiflator. As to the faving that. could accrue from the abrogation of Ole privilege, that again was, in the vi ew o f th e ftibjed of revenue. the lealt confiderable in the world ; for it would not amount to more than 40,0001. a year. He ci;cl not, however, by any means with to tax agriculture hea vily; and the tax under confideration had no ftich tendency. No man would think that arable farms would, by this increafe of feven fhillings and fispence on the Taz on Horfes ufed in hufbandry, be taxed fo as to injure agriculture..or induce the farmer or land owner to ditiontinue employing all the capital he now employs in arable farms. With refpeCt to the infinuation that we tax others and not ourfelves, the hillory of Parliament, and of the whole fyllem of taxation, proves the great difinterefiednefs of the Houfe ; and fo far from the rich not being taxed, they ore taxed out of all proportion much more than the Poorer 'orders. Sir ROBERT BUXTON difclaimed every idea of invidious comparifons. Mr. LASCELLS wined that the Right 11011. Qentleman would take further time to confider of the tax. It (truck his mind, that it would operate as a foit of bounty on grazing farms. It would be 4 check on agriculture. To confider the interelt of the farmer, would be the belt mode of confidering the interelt of the country. The farmers already ren der Cervices to the country by voluntary fervice to wards the public defence, which added to the burdens of the land. The Refolution was agreed to. TAX ON 'PLOPEILTY: Mr. FULLER, in reference to the Tax on Proper ty. mentioned the cafe of one who fhould have much. underwood, but which would not be in a yielding Rate for fourteen years to come ; now the prefent tat would attach on that kind of property, he apprehend ed, as much as if it was at this moment vendible, or as if it yielded a profit. The CHANCEL LO R of the EXCHEQUER ob (erred, that the tax would only attach on property now convertible to its ufcs : fo that the underwood which would not be at to cut thefe 14 years, would for that period not be I;Able to the tax. The other Refolutions were now pti:, agreed. to, and Bills or dem!. - - The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER led the attention of the Houfe to a clerical error in the Refolution impang a TAI on Hodes ufed in huf. bandry. In the Refolution whicb had jolt been puffed. the additional tax is 75. intlead of 75. 61 This did not at all affect the objed of the Refolution ; but its order to remedy the overfight, he fliould bring in a fupplementary claufe, when the Bill (hould be before the Houfe. I L. 4 VE TRADE. Mr. WILBERFOIiCE brought in his Bill for the Abolition of the Slave Trade, which was read a fire time, and ordered to be read a fe►coad time on Friday fe'nnight. 814 HOME POPHAM. Mr. KINNAIRD moved, purfuant to the fuggef. tion of that Officer, that the order for printing fun. dry Papers which Sir Home Popham had moved for, should be difcharged, as it would take up more timc than be had apprehended when he moved for them. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE Q UER thought whatever might be the with of that (Meer to have a fpeedy inquiry, the Houfe could not form a proper judgment till it was in potrtffion of the do cuments.—This bufinefs was therefore deferred lc: the prefent. MIDDLESIX ELECTION. On the motion of Lord MARSHAM (the Chair • man), the Committee for trying the merits of the fall Elation for Middlefex, adjourned to Thurfday near. Mr. SHERIDAN Paid, that its it was then rather late, as the parties themfelves wifhed for further ac commodation of time, as the debate expo. ted on Thurlday, and the bufinefs for Friday, would tale up the whole of the prefent week, and as he did not with to deprive any of thefe diflinguithed Members of the }knife of the. pleafure of joining in the Royal fel tivities (the Windfor pall) of Monday next, or (fill lets to diminifh the fplendour of that day, by caubg thofe individuals (the Minifters) to fent themfelves from the fcene of its grandeur, he role to move, , g That the adjourned debate on the Report of the Middlefex Committee, for 1802, be furth; poftponed to Tuefday next."
