Reeved, That Militia, as above deferibed, thotild be pre ferred inviolable, and not be fubjcdtcd to experiment and alterations tending to fubvert its principles. Rcfolved, That the Augmentation of its numbers is not ne celfary to the plurpores of its Inftitution which it has been found capable of fulfilling, namely, that of being a fate and Conftltu donal force in time of Peace ; conftantly ready on Ibort notice to raft any fudden and unexpedted effort of the enemy on the internal (cavity of this Kingdom, as Rated in the Aft under which it fubfilts. • ... . • pence of the annual fupply of grain, confining of About 54,000 quarters. From a garrifon thus left unprovided for, every thing may be apprehended injurious to the intereffs of this country. There 1 is no certainty that his Neapolitan Majelly has agreed to occupy the place ; and, however much he may be inclined to retain it, circumftanced as he now is, he has not the power of oppofing the. wiH of France. The guarantee of the fix powers mentioned in the Treaty, is a complete illufion.— If Runia refuted to take the island under her im mediate proteCtion, it is difficult to fee what interea the can have in aging as a guarantee. Au aria may have fume little interett, but in her prefent fituation an efficient interpofition on her part is not to be expetted ; and Prof = can have no interen at all in the arrangement. Thus it appears, that the only remaining guarantees to whom it is of any importance are France and Spain, whore in terett is in dired oppofition to that of this coun try ; who will find various pretences under this Treaty to throw troops into it • and who have every thing in their favour from local pofitinn to take advantage of fuch pretences. He concluded with moving an account of the produce of the ter ritorial and commercial revenues of the Maud of Malta, fince its conquefi by the Britifh forces. Lord Hosasx would not objed to the produc tion of the Paper moved for, however much he differed as to the grounds of the motion. He would referve his anfwer to the arguments of the Noble Lord, until the day fixed for the general difcunion of the merits of the Definitive Treaty ; only obferving at prefent, that there did not exitt the leaf& doubt of his Sicilian Majetty occupying and defending the Illand of Malta ; that the at tachment of the Maltefe to this country required, in return, fome provifion for their interests, which was made by the civilian of a new Gangue; and that this Langur would find an abundant fupport in the additional commercial duties.

Lord HOLLAND acknowledged that he partici pated with the Noble Lords on the Bench below him (Spencer and Grenville). in regretting that Malta was not retained by this country ; and he thought that every information Ihould be laid be fore the Houfe on that fubjed, previous to the final dircuflion. The motion now made was not fa& ciently comprehenfive to attain that objed. He could not help recolleding that there was a time when Malta might have been placed under the protection of Raffia. Some papers were wanting to elucidate the tranfadions which took place at that period ; and he likewife conceived it of Tome importance to have an eftimate of the expence which the extenfion of the Wand would coil, as well as an account Of its revenues.

Lord SPENCER proceeded to Rate the grounds of the motion, of which he had given notice rela tive to biAlta : he was aware that this proceeding was not ufual with refpeft to mere motions for the produftion of accounts, which were generally complied with as matt:rs of courfe ; but the lob: j:d of his prefent motion was of more thaa ordi dary magnitude; and he (hould at prefent have an opportunity of entering more into its detail than it would be poffible for him to do on the final difeuffion of the Definitive Treaty. His Lordfhip then Rated his oblations to the propofed arrange. ment relative to Malta, in a very minute com ment on each claufe of the loth article of the De finitive Treaty. They may be comprized in the following abftrad : Of the four remaining Langur: of the Order of St. - John, three, namely thofe of Arragon, Caßile, and Italy, are under the di. red influence of the French Government. It is hence incontrovertible, that the intereft of France mutt predominate in the elatien of a Grand Mat ter; and tVus the Ripulation for the independence of the illand will be virtually defeated. This re fult will not he prevented by the eration of a Mal tefe Gangue, which, independently of its being an improper aft of interference iu the internal Go vernment of a foreign State, mull, &ova the demo cratic principles ou which it is founded, prove a fertile fource of difrention with the other Longues. Of this variance France will avail her felf by means of intrigues, and thus procure au afcendancy of intereft. No provifion is made for paying the troops to be employed in prrifoning the ifiand.— While the territorial polfeffions of the Knights re mained mdse. their refuurces were fo inadequate, that a large debt was incurred. How much more inadequate mutt they now be, when all their be nefices in Spain, France, Piedmont, Lombardy, and on the left bank of t he Rhine are confifcated? The revenuesof Malta itfelf never exceeded 40,0001. a fum utterly ' ient for maintaining its civil and military a at, and defraying the ex- Mr. Nt c ot.s.s rote to make his promifed motion for a vote of approbation of the difmiffal of the late Minifters ; and he thought it his duty to bring it forward previous to that of a contrary nature intended to be moved by a Noble Lord on the other fide of the Houfe. From thofe perfons who lately direded the affairs of his Maje ft y's Govern ment, he thought proper to felea the Right Hon. William Pitt, as a perfon forming :the matt pro minent part of the late Adminiftratson ; as one in whore conduit, during the late war, there appear ed a degree of criminality which affefted him ex clufwely ' • inafmuch as not one of the obj e Cts f or which he declared the war to have been entered into had been attained. The pretext for entering into the war in the beginning of the year 1793, was the proteCtion of Holland ' - and the defence of the Auutrian Low Countries. Since then Holland had been &Wised, and the Low Countries now formed a part of France. The Right Hon. Gen tleman was a volunteer on that occafien ; no de mand for affillance had been made by the Dutch ; on the contrary, they deprecated our interference. Auftria forfeited all right to call on us for aft . ace, by its conduit with regard to the barrier towns. So far then we had failed in the objea of the war. We alt . () failed in anuther point, which the Right Hon. Gentleman ufed frequently to dwell upon—lndemnity for the pail, and Security for the future. The language of France was We pfsdetie as to all the had acquired ; andititu: quo ante Itellum as to what the had 101 l : arid this lan. guage was aged upon. The empire of France was alfo extended, and her power aggrandifed be? yond any thing that could have been conceived. Where, then, lie would Mk, was the indemnity , or the fecurity required by continuing the war There was another objea profelfed by Mr. Pitt, in which he had alto failed ; that was the deftruc. lion of French principles. He did not allude to thole principles that had been aged upon for the abolition of the French Nobility, but thole which the late Mr. Burke and others contidered as hay. ing for their objea the defirualion of all the Conftituted Authorities in France, and which they thought it would be necetfary to fupprefs, in order that a fuccefsful attempt of that kind in France eight not be held out as an example to the people of this and other countries. Thefe were the principles which it was dated to be the objeft o(the war to truth; and its objea was alto to re. eftablith the Conftituted Authorities, in order that this country lhould not have before its eyes an ex. ample of fuccefsful infurration. But the war did not accomplifh this objea ; it did not prevent the example ; for the Confhtuted Authorities of France have not been re-ellablifhed ; and the infutreaion has been fuccefsful. But he might be told that Jacobin principles were put a flop to in England : to that he would reply, that the great tpody of the people in this country never dud entertain fuel principles ; they never withed for innovation ; and no fuch thing was proved on the trials that took place for high treafon. But although the war had failed in all its objeas, he might be told that great ability had been 'hewn in the management of it. He denied that affertion : there was none. The Right Hon. Gentleman had, among other errors in the condua of that war, violated three maxims laid down by Machiavel—the firfl was, never to troll to the relations given by emigrants as to the Rate of their country, becaufe they (poke from prejudice, and always deceived themfelves : but the Right Honourable Gentleman paid no atten tion to this maxim, although he had before him the example of his predeceffors having been de ceived by American loyalifts. The next maxim was, never to rely on the invafion of a country being fuccefsful on account of the exigence of ds. vifions among the people of that country ; and the third was, not to rely on the (=eels of an invafion from the tlate of the finances of that country.... That Route had been told, year after year, that France was ruined in her finances, and that the could go on no longer. One of the firft meaforea adopted at the beginning of the war by the Mini. fler, was, to pundit France—to cut off all Neap. plies of corn and other provifions. Not to fay any thing about the morality of fuch a meafure, he would point out its confequences: Government took into its own hands the trade of importing corn, which.was of courfe abandoned by the met. chants and importers ; and that cirtumftance pro. duced the great fcarcity in ians. The ufeful and neceffary fiipplies were not brought into the coon try. At length Government was obliged to invite the o'd Corn Merchants to import again ; they diet fo, in great quantities ; and that, together with the granting of fubfidies to foreign powers, had the circa of draining the Country of its calk ; and the failure of the Bank foon followed. &fides the attempt to (terve France, the ambiguity of the Minitler in the management of the war was another circumftance which was produaive of great evil to the country ; it alienated from oar caufe the bell of the Royalifts, and occafioned the King of Praia to abandon the confederacy. When it was obferved that Great Britain wifhed for the difmemberm:nt of France, and when Valencien: nes and other places were taken in the name of the Emperor, the Royalilts became difgufted, and we 101 l all that could be hoped from th eir coaipera tion. No Minifter had ever carried the praaiceof lubtidizing foreign powers to fuch an extent as Mr. Pitt ; and, to far from anfwering the objet, it created (handl among iliac powers, without gaining their afliflance. As to the attempt that had been made on St. Domingo, it could never be known whether the objea was to fecure that colony for the French King, or whether it was to be conquered for this country. If the people there' had been allured that we had the former objea in view, they would have put the place into our poffeffion. The attempt to conquer it was ri diculous. It was, howtorer, neither given up nu; conquered, and the expedition coil this country 2x millions of money, and ica,coo men. The ex. pedition to La 'ndec was 'highly difgraceful ; it could never have produced any effea. The fame ebaradler might be given to the expedition to Holland in tang. It was a rath and extrava gant Rep at that time to fend a number of raw undifciplined troops to that country, in the expec tation that theywould be joined by the inhabitants ; and Rill more rags and fatal was the meafure cf fending orders not to fuller the Convention for the evacuation of Egypt by the French to be car ried into effect. The immediate confequence was the expofure of Portugal to invafion, by fending to Egypt that army which would have protedled her. Another part of Mr. Pitt's condua to which . the Houfe would turn its attendee, was the an. fifer fent to Bonaparte when he had made over. tures of Peace to this country. He would alk, if there was a man now in the Houfe who did not regret that the offer had been rejedttd, and that fuch an anfwer had been fent. The Minifter &Quid have known at the time that Boaaparto 4
