r I stay, the Manor of Wellington, from which the Noble Marquis had taken his tide, happeosi to 4* at prevent in the hands of persons /alio were willing to dispose of it, and it would be a desirable concur rence that it should be purchased as part of:shose lands Which it was his intention to move should con stitute the remuneration of Lord Wellington on the present °oration. Under these circumstances, he legged leave-to move—. ", lb* £lOO,OOO should be vested in the hands of Treetops, to be laid out in the purchase of lands of that value to 1, sif t fled an Lord Wellinit on, his heirs, and successors." On the question being put, Mr. WHITSHED NEENE rose and passed a high eologinhi on the character of 1...0rd Wellington. He agreed to the propriety of the grant. • Sir FRANCIS BURDETT said, however strong the case of Lord Wellington might stand on its own grounds, very little had been added to it either by • the Noble Lord who spoke .first, or by the Honour able Gentkman who followed him. In the present state of the country, there were three considerations !which engin to influence them as the guardians of the public money—the merit of the individual, the quantity of the compensation, and a proper under standing out cf what fund the rAvard should come. 'bile there were any disposable funds in the hands of Govern rent, surely, at a time when the taxation of the century bad reached a height almost above the power of collection,.Ministers should be aabamed to apply to the public purse. Among otheere sourCes which have been mentioned, is the patron. az.; which they posseis in the dispensation 'of ,sine cures. tlever there was a call for public economy ....-wheneier a ety was raised against the existence of sinecures.--then , were these funds loudly defended, as being the source by which eminent service.; were to be rewardeil. 4aet them now be applied to inch pur ses. 'l'hye Was another fond out of which he had . Iltestd it was preprued to remunerate Lord Welling-, ton ; this was the Droits of Admiralty. Though he timid-have. ciaiilcted to such an application of a fund, which, i..bis.opinion, ought to be exclusively Aveted to navalseiviees, yet if these funt's were, as • was seen theywire, applied to other purposes than those ler 4ihich they were designed—if they were • tsarcelled.eot in grants to Princes of the Blood, acid ?tine's *the Blond will:consent to receive them— then e thought they could not be appropriated to a more useful object than to xecompeuce the exertions of Lord Weltitio,;cii. The Noble Lord (Castle. reagh) had said, that retreat was no proof of deme rit. 'Unquestionably not. Retreats might be of such a nature as to 111 . 150 the character of a General beyond the most brilliant victories; but this WAS the First time he ever heard a disastrous retreat made The Subject of a reward. The Noble Lord should have stated what losses had been incurred; for. it had 'been rumoured that the loss was no less than in the retreat of Sir John Moo1e—(No, no /from Altai:tem) At any rate, it was a rapid and hurried retreat, and it was reported that the hospitals werelost—(No, taa r front the Ministerial lienels.; Indeed, when he looked at the campaign, es a plats, man, he geoid not bin observe, that its conclusion wits nothing but failure end detest. Some military characters of reputation bad suggested that the battle of Salamanca ought never to have been fought ; and he wished to know 'why Borges had been attacked, and why it had tail ed ; whether owing to want of ability in the COIPr pander, deficiency of means, or the folly and ne. glect of Mir.isters? Lord Wellington was reported to have said that he had little hopetf success at Burgos, and yet, that he thought its capture necessary to the objects of the campaign. Here then was repulse ;ad defeat, though not disgrace, far it was impossible to disgrace a brave army ; at least, here was twills*. indisputable success %hie]) entitled a General to come to.Parlixtnent for remuneration. When the Noble Lord exalted Lord Wellington as the great military genius who was to eclipse even Marlborough, he 'must Trilled him that the -victories of the modern General had none of the characteristics which dis •guished the other. The fruits of Marlborough's ! victories wete retainediand kept firm; yet it was not 'll after the decisive battle of Blenheim that he. had been rewarded by the country. With respect to Lord elliogron, it bad been said by military men of au, ority, that he had got himself into difficult situa: ions, and that his• brave army fought him out of - • ; he heard that there was a needless waste of if. at Ciudad Rodrigo, and at Badajos, which had • taken by storm without a breach • at the first lace, there was a loss on our part equal to that of • garrison ; and at the second, General Picton took e place accidentally, after the main plan bad failed ? d was found to be impracticble. The attack on Bur os bad failed from a similar attempt. 'He should •of himself, on account of Ilia want of experience nd ignorance of military service; have entered cot its subject, had not another Gentleman as little at . - • uainted with them as himself, expatiated upon them. e did not wish to divide the House, but only that tie consideration of reenuneration should be deterred . 11 some inquiry was instituted into this extraerdi, ary campaign. He did not think the raising - of the 'ege of ga,dte a sufficient object of the campaign ; or did be think the Spanish cause was bettered by I .victory of Salamanca, or by the capture of Ma, 1 • rid. At least, there was not before the House sof. • dent means of judging the merits of Lord Wel • gum, or the demerits of tie Ministers. He I con- uded by moving an Amendment , " that the cossi,. ration of this business should be deferred till after •e holidays." Mr. ROBINSON, in answer ? observed, that the on;Baronett as usual, piefaced his remarks with .rofessions of ignorance and inexperience in military Alters.; yet the style of his censures plainly shewed he had no little confidence in his own knowledge (Hear, Jeer. )--He would not again trespass on the ' ndailgence of the House by detailing the events of to campaign ; but to one or two remarks of the on. Baronet, he thought it. necessary to reply. The' on. Baronet Ix asted of his high military authori- .4 ies; vha they were, he (Mr. Robinson) , did not now, and it %%SS most probable they never would be nown ; but he could assure both them and the Hon aronet, that they were completely mistaken. - -1 Hear, hear.)—Neither at Ciudad Rodrigo, nor at! taiains was an attack made without a breach ; at • • nth places breaches were made ; and then the only • thod of proceeding was by storm.

Certainly, the British anti d, cr dens of 'Lord Wellington were such as to place him played courage that was never surpassed, at the r beyond all blame. 'rile Hon. Baronet talked of :the of-ennle* Ni. 4 l 4 calamities of the retreat ; he did not know who such information was procured. The hospitals bad nor been taken, as he had asserted . ; so tar was the retreat from being conducted with hurry and rapi dity; that there never was one more leisurely. Gene ral Hill had never been pressed at all.by ,the enemy ; and act() Lord Wellington,- there had been merely skirmishes between the rear and advaneeerguards elf the two armies. In 'the last dispatches Lord Wei: liven spoke of severe loss, tint that was 014 . 04 5; lily. The Honourable Baronet was not more forttla' sate In his historical than in his military recollections. Lord Marlborough was rewarded before the bank' of Blenheim, by a grant of £5OOO per annum, in , the year 1702 ; though Woodstocliumi ' not given till after that his first decisive batde. Put the pre. lent compensation was not given to Lord Wellingt merely for-the battle of Salamanca--it was not f oat service, glorious as it was, asst immertal ask would be in the memories of posterity ; but it vat for an accumulation of -illustrious actions—for a life devoted to the performance of great ezploits.ooo (Near, hear.) I , 'Sir FRANCIS BURDETT said a few words la explanation. - . - I ; . air FREDERICK FLOOD hailed the Marquis I `Of Wellington as the pride of his own country, and the glory and protector-of this—Thought the stun , proposed should be doubled—said it was a maiden rant, and that it ought to be executed with vigour.— .(Much laughter).—Fk was also of opinion that there ought to be a Wellington, as there was a Marlbo tough-House (continued laughter), • Mr. PRO THEROE'fiil his first speech) • uid he should not follow the NAktord, or the Honourable Baronet, through their milirary details; • but heanost say, that he 'thought the Hono9rable:Baronet luid ; been girilty of the indiscreticka Which he falsely charges .on the Marquis of Wellington—:he had made an at 'tick where there was tio breach—(Hear,hear),—Hgd 4be .Honourable Baronet considered the subject wid; ' rmort deliberation, he miht have seen, that there may .bea bold advance witho ut rashness, and a skilful re treat without disgrace.--glear, hear).--kle thought , .. the House should cheerfu y agree to the Message of the Prince Regent. Even posthumous honours were useful, and were paid to the great Lord Nelson, as .a stimulus to naval exertiou; but with how much greater satisfaction should we be struck, it we could see the Nelson of the army-.,.the man whose natio ' , like his, may become the common appellative of a hero—living among 4s, and reaping the honours duel to his services, in the , munificence, the admiration, and affection cilia' countrymen ?-0/04r, hear, heal* . 1 He hoped no ill-will would interfere to detract trot* that munificence, and to diminish that admiring et. fection. the honourable Baronet had talked of the , distrersee qt' the country. He himself had amploiA opportunity of knowing them, and he felt as deeply for them, and wished as ardently to relieve them, as any of those persons who most indulged in lament*. ti9ns over them ;—yet he thought,. with respect to those distresses. that Mere was a time to speak of them, and a time to forbear.— (Hear, hear.)-4n4 i he was ,sure, that the commercial interests of the country world feel themselves insulted, if their dis. tresses were brought forward as an obstacle to the present grant. Economy, both public and private, was a necessary and signal virtoe, yet it could not contain in it a more noble or useful feature than well-timed generosity.— (Hear, hear.) Lord COCHRANE did not moo to find fault with the vote which was proposed ; but could not avoid taking this opportunity of observing, that in his opinion, we should have done better by applying Mare of our attention to the attack of the coasts of the enemy, instead of conferring it to the interior of Spain. It was his intention to call the attention of the House, 9n some future day, to the general situa- tion of the war in the r euipstila. Being convidted, however, that the Marquis of Wellington bad clone 1 all that was in his power-to do, be should concur in ' the vote proposed. Mr. WHITBREAD said, that although on some former occasions when thanks were proposed to Lord Wellington, be had felt as the Hon,ourable Baronet (Sir Francis Burdett) had expressed to-night, a doubt l 'whether some further examination would not be ne4l cessary ; yet, on the present occasion, he felt it in cumbent upon hilt; to express his entire approbation of the vote proposed (ffear, hear, front fhe Ministerial. benfha). He conceived the present vote as not at all i involving a general approbation of the present cam, I Feign, nor any opinion of the galena situation of i affairs in the Peninsula at this moment. The queo. don was only about conferring' a reward on Lord Wellington, for great and aiknowledged military! services. On a former occasion, he thought it neces.; sary to put some questions to a Right Hun. Relation! of his (Mr. W. Pole), before he agreed to a vote-of thanks; at a period subsequent to that, he had not hesitated to express his dissent to the almost unani. 1 -mous opinion of the House, for a vote of thanks on the battle of Talavera. He had thought, that,-upon that oc. casion, as the Hon. Baronet (Sir F. Burdett) had ea, pressed it to-night, Lord Wellington had got intou great scrape, but that his brave army noblyfought him out of it. He then,however, and at all times, was ready to declare his inadequacy to express a decided opinioe On military operations. When, however, he had seen Lord Wellington's plan of retreat into Portugal delft'. loped, by the subsequent retreat of Marshal Massena, and still farther confirmed and crowned by the victory of Salamanca, he was then ready to give the indeet credit to the judgment and military skid of Lord Wel lington. (Hear, bear.) It had been stated, that mili tary merit ofte4 appeared as distinguishd in retreats as in victory. Tlt certainly mast be recollected; that many Generals in Europe had increased their military reputation by 'well-judged and skilful retreats. Mas sena had' been highly praised uy the British com manders, for his skilful retreat from Portugal; and he had no doubt but that his master was fully satis . fied with Ms conduct on that occasion.
