As soon as I bad made the bow. 111 r.

On the following day, I received a letter from Sir R.

The witness was then ordered to with draw, when. Mr. C. W. , , lion. Martin Ffrench be ordered to attend the Hesse tomorrow. Mr. HOBHOUSE said. that, with all posh& defereace far this opinion of the Right Hon.

GR ATTAR thought that the Petitioner himself top peered to be the aggressor. Sir J. YORKE said, the question Was not whether the parties were at a hundred mike distance from each other when this threat ening took place ? The first offence might have been taken, in con sequence of the Petitiearr's refusal to slake hands with Mr. Ffrenth; but that the Home had nothing to do with: They were to take care, that all persons coming as witnesses should have due protect don, sod he would, therefore. support the motion. Mr. A BBRCROMBY said,that no doubt the House ought, and would, acrid protection to all witnesses; but this transaction did nut appear to him to be such as required their interferetice.-- . There had been a format quarrel. and unbecoming words had been used g but the Civil Power bad interfered, aid rendered the is. Impeffilon. of the House unnecessary. As the ponce was found • , •t to settle it, he thought the Haase Would only waste their •Witl by . entefing 'into any discussion of the quarrels between *thou parties, and that they should not take any timber nodes of • dm matter: Mr. LITTLETON agreed with his Hen. Priem! (Mr. Aber eromby) in his view of the case, especially as nothing had been done which at all interfered with any proceedings before the House. The whole matter arose merely from the discourtesy of the Peti tioner. and did not, in his opinion, require the notice tithe HUN*. Mr. SPRING RICE/ thought, that perhaps be ought not to say any more, as bit duty was confited to the presentation of the Petition. He could net, however, admit the propositions of nine Honourable Members, that obisevaa.not a subject which called for the interference of the House; on the contrary, If the laid down were admitted, and acquiesced in by them, 111 1 1 6 :T1: doubt they would lead to verj Sad constipating.. If insulting words to witnesses in attendance were permitted, and this &m -uting of the House's mat-interference, because no blows were aunt, promulgated, he admitted it would lead to confusion.— Another Hon. Member had said, that because the police and the civil authocitles interfered, theliouse had nothing to du with the matter; but this doctrine he considered monstrous arid untenable. The object be had in view was, that all patties and witnesses should know that the House would interfere no such foces.d. • . at the ,Moickest possible notice; and that the knowledge of this might pro • vent all such occurrences as•rhat before the House. in future. He • had no wish to call up the Gentleman who was complained vilest; .;•• • but of two things hews% certain, that he would have been guilty of a dereliction of his duty. if be had not presented the Petition; and - • he waralso sure, that the House bed a right to institute an lapin C into the affair which had occurred. He was also stare, that even it • 'the /louse went as further, this proposition for an inquiry would • have the meet beneficial effect. Mr. C. W. WYNN said, that as the petition had been brought before the House. if they passed it by entirely, they would act as if no insult bad been offered to the House. It bad been said, that ' the witness bad given the first lank, and so he had, if shaking bawls were to be a compulsory act upon a Gentleman. lie thought, however, that something should he done by the House, and he thought it would be sufficient if the party complairotagafut wore to be admonished by the Speaker at the bar. It had also been 'motioned, that the civil power had interfered, and that the matter was to go no further ; but Low was it to go no further 7—And he also begged to know if the House passed this by without notice, whether they extended that lair protection whisk was due from them ed w)tocases attending in obedience to their commando? Ho, therefore, submitted, whether it would not be the better course to have the party called up and admonished? ?!r. A.BEItC 0 in explanation. said, that when he men- Coned the interference of the police, he did not mean to lay down the doctrine, that the House could not interfere; bat he maintained that this was a matter exclusively tor the police, uoless the Ham ware determined rotate up all the quarrels which might take pins. anise gat all witnesses who were summoned before them. . Mr. BERNAL said, that the Right Honourable Gentleman (Mr. Wynn) bad argued this, as if it were a breach of privilege ' but he could out look on it in that light, as not one word had ps esed bo. twren the parties respecting evidence before the House, nor was ohne any circumstance or allusion bearing lemon it. If the Right Hon. Gentleman, whose memory was stored with precedents, could lii3l a parallel case, in which such severity was used, as that proposed towards Mr. Drench, namely, calling him to the Bar, be (Mt. Bernal) would submit. It would be different it the Corn . 'Mitre had been sitting ; and that, in consequence of what had been, • or was to be deposed, a squabble bad ensued. • Mr. &Dreier); PEEL said, that, in the first place, he had net areio)ed the advantage of hearing the examination of the Witaxe• at the bar, but, from what he had beard, it rather appeared to bias that the evidence did not entirely support the allegation' of the Petition. It was certainly questionable whether the party - who had petitioned the House had exercised a sound discretion it-. dwi:g so? but he had done so, and had stated that he was iiisei:Lo. After the sviihrne tibial bad been given. he ( Mr. Peol; thooght that a very slight notice on ,be part nt the !louse wand be 'sufficient. but be was of opinion that both plans should villa were should restrain themselves is that plats. metbal decide their quarrels elsewhere. He was, therefore, of spiels% that both parties should be called opal and so fa was Se from thinking that the proceedings B serve made the Interference, of the House less "seemly, kn ow it ;Mire Bogs the Meads of the patties present saw there *as so Is match personal conflict, as to warrant their applisatien to a bias's- Irate For his interferences and in order to prevent any such mire deo in future, he &might the better cowls would be to admonish Omit parties. Mr. HOBLIGUSE thought that the mere circumstance of being alba before the House to be admonished was. in Itself, a consi sts", V l Jit ili ttrl MORE observed, that two witnesses had be 'Mr before the House, and see charged the other with insult ing him. The accusation, founded os this, only comes before the House on the statement of one of the parties.. The House ought to do justice to both. This it could not do without heating both, fee which purpose they should both lursuswisoned to the bar. Mr. Alderman WA ITH ld A N coesidered titki .a most anises subject, if the House set any value upon maintaining its MS mho. rity, and enforcing the respect which was its due. In almost every private- case, insults of thip kind wars frequently given and re ceived ; and he thought the House would compromise its owe dig nity if it were too ready to notice them. At Ara the Petition seemed to bear rather a sesame mat; however, the 'eidetic* by Ito means supported its allegations. • i Sir R.WILSON said, that it was the duty of the House 441 mem", the public that perms assusonsd en Committees ditspidl be piseetaid.

The 0011., Member said, that a Petition tad been presumed en a former day from another body of shipowsem ; but those whose Petition be now presented were a body equally respectable, and acted by a Committee of their Members. The Petition was signed by 250 persons, who represented the great hardship of their case under the operation of the late laws; that they were Enable to compete with foreigners, wbo, in the articles of wages, =climber hews of eerie diturt were able to At oat ships at anexpeose, SOON SO et 40 per cent. cheaper than the British shipowner; that other elapses Of the community were willing to have these experiments in lagialadon" tried upon them (the petitioners), while they shrunk from the plication. of similar experiments on theemerees. and they submitted that it was unfair to doele them est for such eneasurcs.

He had been unwilling to present it while the proceedings r e. opening the Arigna Company were pending ; bet he now gam notice, that be would name an early day fee the pementation of the Petition, in order that all the parties coseensed might ; have Wilily information. The Petition would refer to the cendect of certain iodividuals connected with one of the late public (ohs panics. With respect to the Angus Company, be thought that the ' report of the Committee would be ready to be laid before the ! House in two or three days. The cause of its delay to the present ' time was that the Chairman of the Committee had been 'again& as a Member of an Election Committee. C• 11•1111 coin'. _ On the insititme of Mr. F.

Mr. H. GRATTAN gave notice, that on Tuesday neat he would submit a motion for an account of tier expense attending the este= bllshment of the steam-packets between Dublin and Holyhead, and Liverpool and Dublin. The Hon. Member hinted at some fears entertained in Dublin, of some excise regulations about to be entered into connected with those establishments. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that sewed' fears could be entertained from any thing be bad said se dews. Mr. H. G RATTAN presented a Petition from the Tanners*, Dublin, praying for a total repeal of the taxes affecting their trade.

OT WAY CAVE pr,seuted a Petition from the Opera. notiee.of to. _ - - It would, however, bit recollected, that iu July; 1825, lus had requested from the Right Hon. Gentleman lip :e (Mr. C. W. Wynn) some information on the se and ht. had stated that no official account bad arrived, and the Session ended without obtaining asp Is. the, Be.sion'ef last year, a notice of his on this mi*. jest . wes 'twice on the books, but he was prevented from 'bringing it on by some of those chances which some times occurred io that House, and as from the press of other business he was unsble to b ins it on before a late period, he preferred postponing it altogether to the present Session. It was his wish to have introduced it at an earlier period this Year, if be could have found , an opportunity, but that was not afforded until the pre. seut time, in' consequence of the great importance of the othei subjects which had come on for . discussion,' He was aware it was a delicate matter to bring before the House the conduct of the Executive Crovern mene. is ;the management of its tinny, and it was a subject from which be would • have refrained, but iti importance was too great to be passed over. Its ma*"eases, both at home and abroad, there were iottehtet 'of iehabordinatiou sad mutiny among oar krodlitts which did not at all effect the general chip, - fatter WI our forces.- It was, however, important that si 1 tech - cases should be diligently easinioed and their c sutei gone into. This was particularly ,the case in the East, where we had- an army of astivel troops, consisting of 150,000 men, commanded by English Officers, besides 25,000 English troops. It l would be admitted, that we held India by a small foree compared with the numerical strength of the native in habitants,and it was of great importance that the mora l chakacter and influence of our European Of fi cers should be.upbeld, in order to carrying on the business of • the country. It would be recollected, that the circum stances of out dispute with the Burmese in the year 1824, required the assembling of a strong force on eastern frontier. For this' perp9se the 47th Native Regi ment was marched from Futtigur to Bairackpoor, to be lions thence marched td Chittagong. The refusal of that regiment to march bad, it would be remem bered, led in the destruction of 500 of their numberio less than one hour. Now, there. were.two questions to be considered in this case; first, wbat wait the cause of this insubordination? and secondly, whether; before this desperate measure was resorted to, such means were adopted as were calculated to bring the deluded men back to their - duty by gentle methods? The Hoe. Member, after eulogising the good conduct, disci pline, and bravery - of the native troops, which be described as in general very little inferior to our own, proceeded to observe, that the 47th _Regiment had come down from Futtigur, a march of 1,000 miles, with. a single deserter, though it was known that . there existed at that time in tU•Bengal army a considerable objection—i sort of religious dread of the service against the Burmese. This fidelity to their corps was a proof the good discipline that prevailed amongst them. They ca)me down from Futtigur, and• were, es he had Mid, ordered to march to Chittagong. Ptevious to that reline, the desertion from some corps had amounted to 101Yet1100'inen—a strong proof of the general *Emil. Eigness of the native troops to "retired on that enter tain and dangerous servteit. It was id this state of things that the 47th Regiment war ordered to much from Barrackpoor. On the 23d of October, represen tations were made by the men to Colonel Cartwright, their Commanding Officer, and by him to the Com.' mender-in-Chief, stating, that it would be inspossibial for them to move at the time appointed foesbeir tnarehp *inlets they were supplied with the ordinary means of wariest and conveyance. Whether those representis tions found their way to the Commander-in-Chief, and from him te the elovernor.Geoeral•in-Cooncil, he was at present ignorant, and one of his reasoner for bringing forward his motion as_ peseta was to have his• Ignorance on that point removed. The fact, he believed, was, that as the time of marching arrived, great anxiety was displayed by the troops to obtain the ordinary means of carriage. Finding that they could not obtain it, they urged the necessity of de. laying their march till ',it scald be obtained. Now, bst• begged leave to state to the House, • that the troops which had been' sent, from' the presidency at Madras had obtained, owing to the careful Provision of Sir T. Moaro, all the comforts and conveniences Which were denied to 'the troops in the Bengal presidency. On learning that ciicumstante,She troops at Barrack poor-called for additional iatta. :My were told they could not have it. On that answer being given them, the Hindoos said, "If we ale to be midst coolies, or beasts of burden, we cannot any bilker remake alliticts —it is impossible for any men to be atones stosiiisand soldiers." He thought that theglionsander-* Sir E. Paget, could not be ignorant of that chum. stance, especially if he was tightly informed; that k had.been communicated to him at the time by Colonel Cartwright and General Dalsell. Be that, however, as it might, the regiment was told on the 30th of October, that it would not receive any additional means of carriage, and th t march it most. The annunciation of that order drove the men to that state of insebordiaa tion and despair which afterwards led to such lamen table consequences. He must now state to the House, osat in consequence of the difficulty of getting bull to convey the materiel of the army to the Chittagong frontier, an-order had been signed by the Goverrment to send all the bullocks to Calcutta that could be pro. cored within fifty miles of it. This order created such a rise in the price of bullocks, that it was impossible to purchase them at any thing like the ordinary rate. The G.,vernment, finding that it had committed an error in •-refusing to the troops the means of carriage which they had demanded, came to a resolution to allow to each regiment 2,000 in 3,000 rupees instead of it ; but at the time the 47th Regiment was ordered to march, it could, not base procured the necessary quantity of bullocks for thirty thousaod rupees. Such being the state things, the men declared, that sinless their grievances were examined into, they would not march upon the service to which they were ordered. On the lit of. Nov. the Commander-in-Chief, Sir E. Paget, think. iiig it necessary to force this corps to march, preceded wi , h a strong force of artillery and Europeans from Fort William to Barr. sekpoor. He (Mr. Home) admitted that whoa a mutiny broke out in a regiment, it was ne cessary h pot it down th with—he did not, theseforet. . • of the putting down this mutiny, but of th e mealier in which it was perdown. Here t h.
