On the Order of the Day being read for the fecond reading of this Bill, Mr. TYRWHIT JONES begged leave toe& the Mar CCI'Or of the Exchequer, whether, when he bad Bated fo many millions to be unaccounted for, .he ' wilted to have it underliood, that any great part of it could be recovered t The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER Paid, that he had never (fated any thing from which a fair inference could be drawn, that all the money was due to the public, which he had mentioned as being unaccounted for. Mr. ROSE laid, he had no with to impede the progrefs of the Bill, whatever might be his opinion of the principle of it. It was of no confequenee, whether the Bill thould pats ten days fnoner or later. As to the seeo millions unaudited, a very great mil: conception had generally prevailed. It was fuppofed by many, that this turn was abfolutely unaccounted for, whereas, in fait, nine tenths of the public ac counts were fufficiently examined and audited before ever they were brought to the Auditor's Office. He then read the report of the Commiffioners' Accounts, which fiated that in their opinion, " the carrying the accounts of the Army, the Navy, the Ordnance, the Bank, and the South Sea Company, to the Office of the Auditors, was ufelefs, and ought to be dif continued." The examination before the Auditors was rather a matter of form, Ind the real examination of the public accounts rook place elfewhere. The ATTORNEY GENERAL did not believe that the public were under any mittake or waken- . ception ohatever upon the fubjeft, although great pains appeared to have been taken to reprefeut to the public, that his Noble Friend had Meted what he cer tainly never did (late. He believed both the public and the Honfe of Commons were fully imprelfed with the 'weeny of adopting Come mode by which the public accounts could be fpeedily audited.-r When every paymatter knew that in the common wade of banes his accounts would not be audited for twenty, thirty, or even forty years, filch a temp tation was held out to him as no individual ought to be' to: If there were no other rearms, he thought that would be fufficient to prove the need. fit y of the meafure. ' Mr. HUSKISSON confidered the examination be fore the auditors as merely a =tier of form. They were in the lila:tam of bankefs, and bad only to fee that the receipts correfponded with the payments which had been made. Betides, there Was not it finale fubordinate account which had been delayed in rte palling from the delay in the miring the mailer's account, in much talked of. : • *: f• Mr. Secretary WINDHAM thought, that if AU: examination was merely fro forma, there was no WV. cation for an arrear of thirty or forty years to have accumulated. 'Gas the Hon. Gentleman feemed tts reprefent it all the public accounts had been exa mined in detail, the mere formal bufinefs of parting the accounts would not then be a thing of fo mach difficulty. After Come farther converfation, the Bill was read a fecund time, and ordered to be cornmittcd.on Tuefday. . • MARCUM WILLEILEY. Mr. SUI.LIVAN gave notice, that if his Noble Friend (Lord Temple - ), fhould be longer ptevenred by indifpofition from attending the Houle, he %%mid take up on• Friday the motion of which be had given notice. Mr. PAULL alto gave notice, that he fhould on Friday brir g for ward a Supplementary Charge againfl Marquis Wellefley relative to the bufinefs of Oude. usrsseD TAXIS ALLOW•PICS SILL. On the queß ion for the further confederation of the Report of this Bill, Mn. HUSKISSON wilbed the Noble Lord would Rate more explicitly than he had hitherto done, the principle of it. If the gypund were merely the pref . - ture of the Property. Tax, which was of a temporary natur.:, he did not think the proper remedy was to reduce the permanent taxes. He confidered that this wu ask Narnaciamcms on the Confohdated Fut/J, , t I which fattened the fecurity of the public creditors and betides, as the furplus of the Confolidated Pund was a criterion for judging of the general profperity pf the country, he thought it dangerous, in that point of view, to diminilh the produce of the permanent taxes, by way of remedying a temporary preffure. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied, that when the Property Tax was under con fideration, he had refilled the fuggeftions which had been made of granting exemptions in certain cafes, becaufe he thought the principle of exemption was bad, and that the tax ought to be equally levied on property of every defcription. and from whatever fource smiling. It was not merely on account cf the preffure of the Property Tax, but it was on account of the general preffure of taxation. that he conceived the propofed allowances neceffary. If the reftoration of peace fhould remove the temporary prefure, he amid be glad to recur to the grand and definable Ohm of uniformity of taxation. He thought that neither the Houle nor the public could be alarmed at the decreafe it would eccafion in the permanent taxes, when they knew the reafon of it. If in this refp:a there was a deficiency, in fome other points the permanent taxes would exceed the etiolates. Mr. HUSKISSON Rill objected to the diverting of any part of the permanent taxes, for the purpole of relief from the preffure of the temporary taxes. — He concluded by moving a claufe refpeding the manner of keeping the accounts, which was agreed to.—The Bill was ordered to be read a third time to-morrow. VACCIV INOCULAWIOII. ' The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER role, purfuant to notice, to bring forward a motion which was entirely unconneded with the political fyftems of parties, but which related to the health. happinefs, and welfare of the United Kingdom, sad to the human race in general. He %mild call their attention to the difcovery of inoculating from the Cow Pox, or, as it was ufaally called, the Vaccine Inoculation, which had checked in a great degree' the progreis of that dreadful malady which hid fpreld filch ravage and de(olatioo over the worli.r. He should not gu ince any length of detail upon the hiflory of this dikovery ; he Ibould only Rate thai the difcovery itrdf, as well as the effeas which have fince been derived from it, were the relish: of the conftaat labour of an eminent phyfician, Dr. Zenner, who had devoted above thirty years of his life to this , tingle objea. The difcovery was made in t 777, but it was not until the year iyBB that Dr. inner had recommended the extending of the Cow Po; by means of inoculation ; in 1798, he was enabled from a long comic of fuccefernt sxperimeats, to recom mend-the difcovery to the people of this country, and to Europe, in fuch a manner as to excite univerfal at tention : in 1799, it was very generally introduced in America, not only among the more civilized inbabi teats, but even among the Indians. In 11301 it was proetired all over the Continent of Europe with the happieß effeft. He thould Rate one evidence of its effeas in the dominions of Auftria ' which would alone prove its efficacy. In Vienna, before the year 18oa, when the Vaccine Inoculation eras introduced. the average number of deaths by the Small Pox was 83$. In the year t8o: (the firit of the Vaccine Ino culation) only 61 died of the Small Pox. In the year tBO3 the number was reduced to 27, V sit the year I hoc there were only two. Sn that it be fairly flaked, that in Vienna alone, 83$ lives were fared annually by the praffice nt Vaccination. " In the EaR Indies, 800pooperrons bad been vaccinated in bne year, and it bad been introduced generally into Chin'.' While all other nations were deriving the . great. eft beisefits from this difcovery. its progrefs In this country from which it originated, was taking a retro. grade movement; In London, the 'average deaths by the (mall pox for fix years before the difcovery was 16 t t.. The firß year, however; that the Vaccine was introduced, the number fell to 61 t • Since that time, whether from the influence of certain - pamphlets, or Whether it was that perfons had been inoculated" wittf a varioloos matter that was not the true cow pox, the minds of the public feemed more wavering tattle inn portar.ce of the difcovery, and the deaths y the finall pox were nearly as great' as aver. The lore in'the laft year was 5685, being very little lore than the average before the difcovery. This circumftaned claimed the mot ferious attention of the Houle. It certainly was not his intention to propofe any thing tonsittlfory upon the fubje49, but he thought that * Houle thould at lean give all the authority and bodice that it could •to the fupport of a difcovery, which be cmceived of the fiat importance for the health and welfare or the human race. The meafure he had now to propofe was to move, " that an hum ble Addicts be p relented to his Maijefty, praying him to dire& his College of Phyficians to enquire into the Rate of Vaccine Inoculation, and its effeet in deftroy ing the (mall pox, and to report the evidence upon the ruble°, and the caulks which have retarded its progrefs ih the United Kingdom ; and that this Re port thonld be laid before Parliament." He hoped that this Report would be ready before the cons. nsencement of the next Seffion, and thould it be fa vourable, as he had every rearm to expel, it would become a futons eonfideration with the Houle, what ceps (tumid be taken to make the difcovery as ben* field to this country as it had been to other nations. 'lt 'would alto be a fubjet for their confideration, whether any rertard at all adeqmte to the impor. tinie of the difenvery. or worthy the charaSer and liberality of this country, had been given to a man who, by the entire applioation of his mind to this ful* jet}, had been enabled to render fuel important kr vices, not only to this country and to Europe, but to the world ; fervices which would not be confined to the prefent gtneration, but which would be felt as long as the hit man'race • Mr. MATTHEWS rofe to fecund the motion.—' He had at firlt fume doubts as to the ufefuleefs of the difcovery, and had attentively watched its progrefr, and the refult ;was that he was fully convinced of its great value. The Small-pox Inoculation, he Rated, was liable to great objeSions. Death in many in- Rance' enfued: though beneficial to the individuals, it was a magazine of contagion ' and it had, betides.. the effeels of thinning up another difeafe in the human frame, which was the fcrophula. The Cow-pox Inoculation was not liable to thefe objeaions„ and he was of opinion that in the cafes in which it had fail ed. it had not been fairly tried. He had no doubt that pofterity would enrol t h e name o f l eaner a m o ng I thole, Inventas qul 'Awn eieoluere per arta; 9.1,c1ue ft 4 =mune all 9. (cave racreado. Mr. WILBERFORCE did not•hope that mna. good would be derived from the Report of the Col lege of Phyficians, as almoft every medical man r 1 any eminence in L ondon: had certified In favour of :t. He differed with the Noble Lord in one refpeft, as he conceived that there might fairly be Come degree of compulfion ufed on the part of Legillature Certainly it would be unjuft to compel petcocks to be vaccinated, bat it would be by no means union to compel per tons, who chofe to be inoculated with the Small-pot. to take fuch precautions as fhould be judged neceft fary to prevent the fpreading of the infection to others. Although it might be unfair to compel per. tons to take precautions for their individual (murky, it was perfectly fair, by Legiftative compulfion, to prevent them from injuring Tociety by fpreading in. feeious diforders. In the eats of the plague, and other infections diforders, very rigorous m eatuses are taken by all Governments to prevent the fpread ing of the infection, and he could not fee why the fame fhould not, in a letter degree. be applied to the Smallpox. At prefect, perfons not only inoculated their children for the Small.poi, but fent them, afterl they were inoculated, among other children who were not Wafted, and in this manner fpread contagion over the whole neighbourhood. He conceived at a duty that the Government owed to fociety, to pro tect the people from this, as welt as every other fpe. ties of contagion or pellikesse as far as trite regale. dons could do it. The obje & of his mating there obfervations was, that be hoped Gentiettlen would turn the febjea in their minds. Word an NM fief fion, and confider whether it would notle o rtfkaly juft and right that there &ad hd be ese tive is terfcrenee of the Lesigature upon drat C Mr. WlNDHANfexpreffed his fatisaftion to find tech a general uniformity of fetainsent to the ram fure propefed by his Noble Friend. The only point of differeace lay in the mode which an Hon. Member had thought it better to puttee. He bad fuggefted, that the enquiries of a Committeeof Parliament were better calculated .to produce an hnpreffion on the public mind. Rat upon a fubjea of a profelSonal nature, it appeared to him, that a Committee of the Houk were much lets competent to decide, than a body of Phyficians. This was a diftinftion founded on evident principles ; and, for the fame rufous, it was to be fuppofed, that the authority of medical men would be much spore geoerally recognieed.--. When, however, the report of the College was made, the authofity of Parliament would be employed to give additional weight and solemnity to their decifion. It was the evidence of medical men which gave ftrength to the Report of a former Committee ; and their enquiries would afford the belt chance of over coming error, and of guiding the public opinion, on a matter of which they were peculiarly competent to judge. His Hon. Friend had recommended a cer tain degree of compulfion and reftraint, in order to prevent the fpread of contagion. But to Inch men. tures he trufted the Houle would not recur, except in cafes of great neceffity. Such a degree of reftraint was ftill mote defirable before the pralitice of inoesla don was introduced, and yet it had not been retorted to. He mull confets, however, that no man who was in the habit of walking in the ftre,ets of London, could help being fcandalized at the frequent expofurs Of children, even in the midi of crowds, covered with, the hull pox, and capable of diffufing the contagion all around. Still, however, the Route fhould be flow to retort to any modes of compullion ; and he trait. ed that the mealure now before the Houle 'would ultimately remove the netteffity of having recourfe to compulfion and reftraint. Mr. WILBERFORCE explained, and obterved, that be had only thought it worthy of conftdetatien, whether modes of regulation, not hat& in thensfelves, might be adopted for preventing the fpread of infec tion. Mr. BANKES, confidering the late period of the Seffion, approved of the mode which had been pro pored by the Noble Lord,though he thought that an invelligation by a Committee of the Hoofs would prove the inoft fetisfatiory. But he now underßood, that it was' propofed to combine the two together, and that the opinion of the College of Phylicians would be followed up by the Refolutions of a Com• Mince of the Mode. He conceived, however, that at it was merely the examination of a fa@ whether the 'Vaccine Inoculation would afford a protection from the Smallpox or not,•s Committee of the Hoofs were folly conthetCnt to decide upon it. 1t was a queftion of fat, not of feience, and :null be:decided by the evidence that would come before them. Btu as the prefent plan feemed' to combine the advan tages of both modes of enquiry, sodas the report of the College was to receive the ultimate fanellon of Parliament, the prefent meafure fhould meet with his hearty concurrence. The reafon why 'the Vaccine Inoculation had failed in Come inflances in this coos try feemed to be, that it was not confined, as in other countries, to fsientific perfons. The whole procefs had here been fo completely dekribed, and made fo plain, that it had been taken up indtfcriminately, and hence a fpurious inoculation might in lonic inflames have taken place, which had excited lone prejudices in the public mind agaii►tl the practice. He 'diked that another learned body, the College of Surgeons, thould alfo take a part in the enquiry. The Small Pox was a difeafe which had been very much in their bands, and therefore they were able to give very ima portant information on the fubjett. The Week* Inoculation, if really effectual, would ultimately find its way in fpite of the oppofition and prejudices which had been excited against it; there WAS a good fenfe in the people of England that would not long permit them to oppofe the triAlh, and in that cafe he conceived that the reward bellowed on the man who bad made the difcovery, would not be found a remuneration fufficiently ample. Mr. WILLIAM SMITH concurred with his Ho• nourable Friend in thinking, that the College of Sot geons fhoutd be joined to that of the Phyficians in the prefent enquiry ; and afcribeci the prejudices which had arifen againft the practice to the ignorance and inattention of thole who had communicated the inoculation. lie exprefred his fatisfadtion, that the Cubic@ had been brought forward by a Noble Lord of high official and private character, and conceiv ed, that the fentimeuts delivered on the ncealion would tend to remove thole prejudices which were rather founded on authority than obfervation, and which were, therefore, more likely to be removed by the weight of authority than by reafoning. Mr. PAULL begged leave to date a f 4.9 to the Hoofs, with regard to the Oats of the Vaccine Inc•
