TUESDAY, !Ea 4. aaaaa nworaCa. for furnmuning their Lardthips for d, AVE raid, he had hoped, when he this day, that the arrangements in /Gold have been completed, fo as to . full attendance of their Loren:hips. it having been his intention to enter into an explanation refpatiog leveret points ennnated with the Papers which he had laid upon the Table, at the fame ume that he prefented to their Lordthips, by his Majefty's command, leveret other documents upon the fubjelt °flour Continental relations. He had brought down the papers to which he alluded, and could not let this opportunity flip, of giving Tome eeplanatiou to their Lordfhips, upon certain points which they in. volved. Had it been upon any ordinary occafiou. I that the Treaties were prefented to the Houle, it would have been fufficient to have left them to fpeak for themfelvea. Their Lorrain; would, in perufing there, have found that the firft objea of his Majeftei Government had been to form a well arranged plan, which, in its execution, might afford every reafonable profpea of effeaing the deliverance of Europe ; the next objea, that thole means might be provided, which might give cffeft to the negotiation which was 'et that period expefted to be carried on. or in the event of Oat negotiation terminating in war, might enable thi allies to purfue hefilities with proportion ate energy and vigour. They would bare Peen by I thefe treaties, that roo.ooo men were to have been brought into the field, aso,ooo by Auftria, and 180.000 by Raffia, a nuer certainly amply (WU cient, according to every calcolatton, for the pur -1 Poles of tarrying into effea thofe objets which it I was fought to attain. It had been a matter of cal culation, what number of troops France could have brought to alt upon a certain point, in *given time, and what number of Auftrian and Ruffian troops would be at that point by the time fpecified. He re ceived official returns, by which it appeared, that exo,ooo Auftrians, and tilo,ooo Ruffians were *du ally in the field. or on their march. The Ruffian troops, infra", marched according to their engage. ment, and arrived at their deftination, and were ready to take the field two days earlier than the time fpecified for their reaching the point where they were to effect a junaion with their Austrian Allies. The plan thus prepared, the arrangements thus made, and the calculations thus made, were unfortunately de ranged by the precipitancy of Auftria. The devia tion of Auftria from the plan agreed upon, was not ffight and trivial. but it was a complete and entire deviation, and to this mull be attributed all the cite. odious confequences that wined. The objea of this country was, either to promote a negosiation for a general peace, upon a permanent baits, confillerit with the welfare and leeway of Europe, or to eta blifh an armed negotiation, with a view of putting a Priod to the ofurpationa and encroachments of rance ; and if war was the refute, to rapport that war by means which, according to all human cal culation, were adequateto effea 'the objea propofed. Alibis had, till the end of the year slop to nego tiate, as the fubfulies from this country were not Payable. if the commenced hankies before the end of the year. Unfortunately, however. from her pre cipitancy in fending forward her troops, the melan 4 choly mats of the campaigo i and the calamitous day of Aufterlitz, hod Waited: It was the oceurteiSca of thefe unfortunate events that had induced hit Majefty's Minifters to obtain his Majefty's animals to lay before Parliament every document that could jq nay degree elucidate the fubjea, or explain any of the points committed with the Treaties which he had, On a former day, laid op the table. They had dons this, in order' that their conduct might be placed re that point of view in which they wilted it to be coa -1 fidered, convinced, as they were, that it would be found free Prom the flighteft blame, on account the recent unfortunate events on the Continent. He could not help alto again expreffin his anxiety, that the chara6er of that illuftrioueftarefmao, whole lots they now deplored, thould be cleared from thefe its potations, which, on account of thole events, had been Cu unjuftly eaR upon it. In attributing theft} events to the precipitancy of the Emperor of Au ft ria, and his deviation from the plan arranged by the leis lies, he mull, at the fame time, deprecate any itet. potations being thrown upon that Moparch, on so count of his figning an armiftice, and, fubfequently, a Treaty of Peace with France. It was eafy fee thole who were at a diftance from the fcene of aßiosa to condemn the conduit of that Monarch ; but It amid be recolleeed, that he did and faired much for the common cattle, that he gave up his capital to the enemy, and fought in perfon agatn ft them. If af. ter this he was induced by the calamitous cirenm fiancee that enfued to give way and make peace with France. it fhould rather be lamented as an unfortu nate circntuftance &tribe inacie the ruble& of con demnation. As folust Noble Lords had come into the Houk (Ince be had rifen, whom he walled to hear his explanation (Lord Grenville had jug entered the Houk), he would fhortly recapitulate. He then , briefly repeated his former Ratements, adding. that the negociations between Auntie and France, it was known, muff be broken off in confequence of the an- I nexation of Genoa to Fiance, and that it was expec ted that when hoftilities commenced. Auftria would have aged upon the defenfive in Germany and cam lively in Italy. He had obfcrved on a former even ing, that certain articles of the treaty with /Willa were withheld, he repeated, that no other motive bad indite , ed his Majefty's Minifters to withhold them than a de fire that no injury might refult to certain Continental 'Powers from the publication of the recitals contained in thofe articles. This was their only motive, as thofe Who weir about to fucceed them would loon be ena- bled to judge. from an infpcition of the documents theinfelves. He was anxious that the fubjea to which the papers on the table, and thole he was about to prefent, referred. fhould be fully and amply difeuffed. In the refult of that dikutfinn he had the utmoft con fidence ; and he would repeat what he had laid on a former evening, with reference to that fubjea and the conduit of his colleagues and himf l eif. that there was no meafirre which he Coirld now with had been taken, that had been omitred,oor any %ea lure a dopted,which he would now with to retest.
