The Earl of CAMDEN prefented, in purfuance of a recent Addrefs of their Lordfhips, accounts of the number of men raifed under the provitions of the Additional Force At 9 paired lan Seflion. The ac• counts were ordered to lie on the table, and, on the potion of his Ledndlliip. to be printed. The Earl of DA RNLEY (in conliquence of whole motion the recounts were produced) profetfed Its in. terrti.m to bring forward a motion upon the fribjea, on Monday. flowerer, he conceived fume farther informatroa was necellary to its due elucidation ; he theta. re mean: to move for an account, Ipecifying the numbers were railed under the provitions of the Aet, through the medium of the Para Offi cers. as diair..:t born thole who were railed by the ordinary means of ievy. This fpecific ation,he thought, would tend to thew, that fome of the arguments for merly uf.d by 0:ofe who oppr.fed the Bill were, at leaf!, not without fonre foundation. He wifhed to know the fent:ments of the Noble Secretary, with re fpea to ii,e propelled additional accounts, which would influence him, as to the time when he Ihould make the m rtion. • 'fire Earl CANIDEN obferved, he law no ob- NjeEtion to the a..:counts being produced, which his Noble Friend adverted to ; but, with refpea to the day upon vrbi.,h the intended pronofiti. n &mild be di:culled, the lame facility, in iris mind, did not feern to obtain. Thor were, en the other hand, other papers and accounts, which, Ire thought, were ecelfary to be produced, and which it may not be prael:cable to to ready in due time, before the dry alluded to ; 0 etc was a ditetiffion of great importance per.din ; ; ; and which, perhaps, ciecurn fiances may render it need:lry to have poflpotred.- 11e had rather as N blc Friend woul:: fix upon ano- Aber day ; by parrole contingency, that menti..r.- ed might inh.:lerc with the important dilcullion which be alluded to as The SECRETARY at WAR LAM, that he was cdtcmay unwilling that any proper information fhuoW lie withheld from the Houle. But he fug gcard, that the printing of thefe papers would take up fo much time, that little opportunitytif examining them would be ariorded previous to the Mr. CALI:I:K.IIU übferved, that in that cafe f inn: degree of b'ame attached to the Secretary at War for not bringing then) in farmer. If the public fervice alifultitely requited that they thould be dif euil.std on Monday nev, and if they could not con veniently be piloted before that time, then he would acTiii.tce. But •hey ccrt.linly ought to have been pi ch.,itcd in proper lime to have them printed. It was imputhllle that 012 Members of the Houfe could accurately examine their contents white they lay un printed on the table, and he would therefore think :r his duty to perfeveic in his intention of moving that they thould be printed, linters it was pc. tively Rated, that this would be injurious to the public let vice. The SECRETARY at WARinformed the Houfe that it was never the cotton) to have them printed. The ufual mode of proceeding was to lay the Elli mates on the table, and move for their difcufflon the week after. As he did not, however, with to with hold any information from the Houle, he would not object to the printing of the Papers. On the motion of Mr. CaLcaser, the Papers were then ordered to be printed. MIDDLESEX ELECTION. Mr. CREEVEY brought up a petition from cer tain Freeholders in the County of Middlefez, Hating that at the late EleCtion for Middlefez, there were two candidates, viz. Sir F. Burdett, and G. Boulton Mainwaring, Efq. That before the proceedings wure entered upon, the qualification necelTary by As of Parliament, of a landed ettate of boot. a year was pofitively demanded by the agents and Counfel of Sir F. Burdett, and the Freeholders in his interelt ; and that he, the laid G. B. Mainwaring, (hould verify the fame on oath, according to the te nor of the Paid AQ ; that the laid G. B. Mainwaring, in anfwer to this demand, had Ilated that the laid Aft of Parliament did not apply to him, and that be had no need to produce a paiticular qualification, he be ing the eldell fun and heir apparent of William Main. raring, Efq. a gentleman who had repeatedly been the reprefentative for the laid County of Middlefez ; and that he, being doubtlefs poEffed of fuck necef. fary qualification as required, rendered it unneceffary for his heir apparent to produce a particular qualifi cation. The petitioners then proceed to (late, that the laid G. B. Mainwaring is nut the elde(l fon of the laid William Mainwaring, and therefore the faid qua lification as fuck can be of no avail, and that the laid G. B. Mainwaring, having no came of his own, of the value of 6ocl. a year, he was not eligible to ferve in Parliament, as Knight of the laid Shire.— They pray therefore, that the name of the laid G. B. Mainwaring, who has been returned by the She ' riffs as the fitting Member, may be (truck out of the laid return, and that the name of Sir F. hordes; may be inlerted in its (lead. The Petition having been read by the Clerk, Mr. CRee►Ev moved, that the fame be taken iuto confideration on the 18:h of February next. • SPANISH [SPORTS. Lord H. PETTY obfcrved, that in the return of the Exports to the Spanilh Potts, the particular Ports were nut named. He thercfure moved that the re turn (hold be amended. The SPEAKER ohlerred, that in a cafe of this fort the regular comic was to more for a frefh re turn.—This was accordingly done, and the Mctio.n a , reed tu. WAR 'WITH SPAIN. Mr. GREY role to make the motions, of which he had given notice on a former day, for the produc tion of certain papers relative to the war with Spain. He did not intend to adhere tenaci.mtly to any ca ret:li form of words in his mot His. He would be well enot , lifatkle.d, though the return to them were only made in hal:lnce. But underflanding that there had taleii place important difcutlions relpe4l - the neutrality of Spain, and that thole diteuf ficns occurred in the interval between June and Sep tember, ISo3, whilft other important matters were likewife difeoffed at other interval:, he felt it his duty to bring before the Hoi&: the motions which he held in his hand. Ile sway unaware of any very firing ground of oppolition to his motives. He fhould endeavour to obviate ()Nee:ion. Perhaps the molt important lubjed which the whole nego tiation embraced, was the Convention of Neutra lity, and he had been told, th,it between the periods lie had mimed, that fubjca tsar. dilculkd with much folemuity. By the papers of which theHoufe was in polreffion, it Atli:eared that the lint demand of a fib- tidy from Spain by France, WAS made on the Bth of July, ISo3. N,w his fait motion ihnuld be for co pies or esti:tits of any dileuftions with the Spanifh Government refpeaing the amount of the fame.— Trr in the correlpondence now in every Gentleman's hands, it would be perceived that thong remetflian ces were, on the 9th of September, 1803, made by our Minifter at Madrid, on the topic of the march of coops through Spain to Fe-,Tel. To thefe remon firances he did not know that there had been any anfwer given by Spain—but if there had, it did not appear aniongit the publifhed papers. From the 9th to the 2. ! It, there was an interval of chafin in the papers, during which %et y poilibly the anfwer of the Court of Madrid to the renumflrances of Mr. Frt.e' was received. In the lame interval, other fubjces of confequence might have been difeuffed. He fhould, therefore, move for copies or extrads of any anfwer or anfwers to the remonfirances of the 91h of September, given by the Court of Madrid to our Mittilter.

It was a point of diers and &dors, of which, front the papers, com 'peat importance to have this bufinefs difpatched as plaint had been made by Mr. Frere, was only a fin. ,eatly as p On that account he had prevailed gle inflance, though it the whole of the correlpon upon the Right Honourable Gentleman on the other dente were divulged, it is very probable more would fide (Mr. Windham) to potipone his mci.iou, which be found. He howescr knew nothing of this. His ob. ItOA for Monday. jet was to get the belt information he was able, on : Mr. CArcRAVT wifhed to have the Eflimates the molt important points.
