~.. - - The only hope, therefore, of keeping the American privateers within their ports, was to withhold from them the expectation of a prey. The Admiralty, therefore, established regular convoys, and the Gen tlemen interested in the Weea India trade having been invited to meet and make such arrangements as would suit their interest, and at the same time would not be incompatible with the public service, it was settled that tour convoys should sail annually from Spitheadeand font- from Cork, for the West Indies, and that they should be placed within a fortnight of one another, so that the vessels who were accidentally tot) late for the one, might yet contrive to catch the other. It it were asked why the number of convoys sees ma greeter, the answer would be, that the Ad , npi alty (as he had before observed), not wishing to expose. our commerce to any risk from the Ameri cans, th uglit it wise to allow fewer convoys, but to make them all sate. Each convoy therefore equalled in force the whole American navy ; the consequence of which was, that not a single merchantship had been taken which sailed under convoy, and that no convoy had been at all disturbed, except by weather. For this purpose, however, it became necessary to appoint for each convoy a line o( battle ship, a frigate, and several sloops. Making allowance for several spare ships necessary to supply accidental deficiencies, the single service, therefere, of convoys to the West In dies required About 10 line of battle ships, 10 frigates, and from 20 to 30 sloops of war. The return of the] coevoys liont the West Indies was equally simple and clear. They sailed at certain periods fixed by the trade. The Admiralty bad wished those periods to be unalterably fixed, but the trade requesting that this a:ight not be the cite, our Admiral on the West had orders to appoint a certain day far mg of the coevoy, but to accelerate or retard lure at the pleasure-of the trade. It was ur•.- ly :IS*l - ,3d been stated by his Honourable that one of these convoys had been detained. -s lied yet been received at the Admiralty, tol for ties circumstance; but he had no doubt !n they did arrive the delay would bi satis• ey?lained. As to the permission to Vessels According to Act of. Parliament to run, the I ionce svoul4 be that as soon as the Americans ' aw..re of the force of those Vessels, they would ()viers of larger force to intercept them. The' of our Merchant vessels could hardly carry ,an twenty guns and fifty men. Now, many American privateers, it was well known, car- Or 26 guns and 150 men. Titus inferior, the' leer single vessels would be almost certain. It be beacr that they should not be armed at all, would then be 'better able to run away. If ticular portion of the seas were to be exempted le operation of the Convoy Act, the only con e would be, that the Americans would flock —it *would be their preserve. Such a step, had been takers in circumstances in which it to to take it. Immediately en the receipt of aiveneion between Great Britain and , France, were issued to suspend the operation of the iy Act, in the whole of Mediterranean. It Also be suspended in the Baltic, were it not that ai‘, with a view to insurance, wished it not to but ire diet wish, it wculd be suspended in the , as long as there were no American privateers sea. 'lt was undeniably the interest of the any to grentliceiices for running ships, instead moi:iting convoys, for in the latter case thevin i a respon,kility, from which in time former they c-xeolr ; but their of ject invariably was to such rimeasures on the subject as were best cal ..' to secure the commerce of the country. er sun.e further conversation between Mr. CAN- Mr. Alderman ATKINS, Mr CROKER, Mr. Mr. MARAYATT, and General GASCUIGNE, the eat through the Committee, and the Report was !d to be taken into further consideration on ay next.

WARD observed that, according to his re ction, the precise sum which Sarah Duchess of thorough stated to nave been expended upon , n was £l7OlOOO. \fter a single remark from Mr. Rose, the Resolu ,ls were agreed to nem. con. and a Bill was ordered be brought in accordingly. 04 the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the XCHF.QUER the Reports •on the provisions for -ds; Lyuedock, Hill, and Berestord, were referred reconsiderdion on Monday, as it seemed to be genera! sense of the House that the amount to gt anted was not an adequate reward for the ser :es of those gallant Officers. COPPER TOKENS. Mr. GRENFDLL wished 'to a4c,the Right Hon. Chanceif r of the Exchequer, if he had yet been ie to provide any remedy for the evil arising from , issuing by private, individuals of copper tokens ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER i f f, a measure was a progress for doing away the 41 complained of the Hon.. Gentleman. Mr. GRENFLL, suggested .the propriety of revolting private individuals from issuing swil l okeas. Mr. GRENFELL then moved • for an account of, diderent Loans contracted for by Government" .oat Ist January 1793 to 31st December 1813, with the terms of each loan, and speCifyipg the names of lie personi with whom each contract was entered ato , ar.d an account of the average price of the ca. eta SLOCI purchased by the Commissioners 101 the astu it ..., • • co;,voys ho , clear.

Sir FREDERICK FLOOD stated, that it was no longer his intontion to bring forwar.d a measure for the assimilation of the Election Laws of Ireland to those of England. . - -- CATHOLIC BOARD. Mr. KNOX, seeing the Right Hon. Secretary for Ireland in his place, observed that he was no doubt well acquainted with the late proceedings of the Ca tholic Board. It was his opinion that Government ought to take every sep to put down an evil which excited alarm in the minds of every well wisher to the prospoity of Ireland ; and he wished to know what it was the intention of Government to do in this business ? Mr. PEELE said the subject was at present under the consideration of the Executive Power ;..but he did not feel that he could at present give any atftwer. Mr. KNOX said, a large proportion of the Pro testant population of Ireland were deeply interested in this matter. NAVY ESTIMATES. The House having formed itself into a Committee of Supply— Mr. W. DUNDAS rose, in pursuance of notice, to move the different Estimates for the Naval Service of the current year. It would be unneceisary.for him to enter minutely into this subject, as the Estimates had been printed several weeks and in the hands of the Members. If any Gentleman, however, wished for explanation on any particular branch, he would he happy to afford it. The Estimates consisted of the Ordinary, the Extraordinary, and Transport Service. —The Ordinary Service was divided into thre7 branches: Ist. Pay-2J. Half pay. An increase was proposed in this branch, but it was impossible yet to say to what extent. The 3d head was, the Estimate of Superannuation. The next was the Extraordinary Service : no alteration would take place in this ser vice. With respect to the Estimate of the Repairs of Ships of War, a great dual would be necessary to fit them for the Ordinary, for if laid up unre.paited, they would go to ruin. He next came to the head of Expellees - of ,New Works ree t uired ; but the Coin ' mittee would not thank him to go through the de tails of the works now. A rarge sum of above .ilOO,OOO was stated for Army Provisions, E:c.— He proposed a reduction of one-half, that isllBoo,ooo. One article, the Sick and Wounded, was consideralily over-stated, but he could not yet say to what extent. It would depend WI the number of those who arrived sick front foreign service. One large statement was 81400,000 for Prisoners Of War. A hope would naturally be entertained of a large reduction on this head ; but the accounts were kept from October one year to October the next year, so that the ,xaving would only be from the period of the release to Oct . ' tuber. The reduction would be about 1C`260,0U0. In December last there was voted 12. millions for Pear and Wear. A reduction was here proposed of two millions. The total deduction from the Estimates of the current year would be between three and tour millions. The House had' voted 140,000 Seamen. — it must be gratifying to all to learn the pitch di, power to which the British Navy had ari ived. It' had never perhaps been equalled, and certainly never exceeded. It was not this or that Board, which had raised the Navy to this ascendancy, bat the liberal support of Parliament and the country at large.— We had a naval pt wer equaito check the combined fleets of the sta rid, and even capable of overwhelming them. It consisted of ahoy:: 1000 vessels. What our &amen were the voice of Europe would tell.— They had been engaged in blockade for years, a dull monotonous service, which they had borne without murmuring or repining. A grateful C6untry most hail the return of their brave Defenders. They had earned the gratitude of that country by many a toil some, many a stormy day. • The following items were then moved and agreed to in the Committee: For Tear and Wear, &c. For Superannuated Clerks For UV..pay to Suitrannuated Officers of the Navy and Marines 460,000 for Salaries to the Admiralty, the Navy-Pay, at:'! Victualling Offiects For the 'Transport Office, and Office for Sick and Woonl.d Seamen . 150,000 • For the Franiliort Service - . . . 2,950, 0 00 ha. Sick and Wouvdcil Seamen, at home and abroad 22a,000 For l'risoners of War in health, at hOine and abroad 1,•208,t , 00 l'ruvisions to: . Frout's and Garrisons on foreign stations 1,600,000 Mr. TIERNEY enquired whether, upon the whole Eaimates, there was an exceeding above, or a dimi nution under thosa of last year ? - • . Mr. CROKER replied, that on the Extraordinary Estimates there was a diminution of nearly ACVX),OOO as compared with the last year. In the whole there was a reducton of nearly three millions in conse quence of recent events. Under the head containing all, the establishments, such as the Superannuation and Halt-pay Lists, there was necessarily an increase of AGO,OOO. The head Army Provisions , which was not a naval service, but a sum charged for the con veyance of troops, there was an augmentation of 8500,000, and charge for the Transport Service was increased £700,0(X), but both these items would amount to nothing in future years, excepting the next, when heavy expences must - be idcurred for bringing home our armies from various situations. Mr. LOCKHART inquired whether it was meant to make an addition to the tickets of Out-pensioners at Greenwich Hospital ? • Mr. CROKER assured the House that the largest possible allowance should be made, but he could not give a more precise answer. He stated that the Wi dow's Pensions, originally established by queen Caro line. would be augmented in consequenix of new re gulations. L 12,000,000 61,000 270,000 CORN LAWS. The House, on the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, resumed the further consideration of the Report concerning the Corn Laws. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was of opinion that some of those resolutions would require further deliberation, and he should wish the subject, so tar as related to them, postponed ; but so convinced was he of the propriety of the first resolu tion for allowing unrestamed export, that he should be unwilling to postpone it for a single day. He did not believe there ever was a country in which agri culture flourished without export. It was not pro- bable that any inconvenience could be ever incurred flom allowing a free export & as th e great probability • was, that the seller would find - a higher price Oa this country than in any other. Other countries differed very materially from this with respect to the con sumption of corn. In other countries, when corn was high, there was a much less consumption ; but here, the price of labour rose generally with the price of bread, and the poor laws also enabled the poor to consume the same quantity, whatever the price was, as, if they were unable to purchase, the parish was obliged to provide for them. Agriculture, he con tended, ought to be encouraged, and the unrestrained privilege of export was one of the most likely means for this purpose. • The other resolutions that were moreailoubttul, and that required more mature consi deration he would defer till a future day. Mr.. FOSTER expressed his satisfaction at 'the Right Hon. Gentleman's approbation of the first part of the measure. To the second resolution he would himself object, as not being sufficiently simple. The Irish he considered superior to. the English system, and therefore Ireland had become a corn country, and was an exporting country, while England was an importing country. Sir H. PARNELL was also glad of the support of the Right Hon. Gentleman, and hoped that ano ther Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Rose) would.now see that the measure was neither rash nor unfounded. Tne export was certainly the more important branch of the measure, as we might by that, instead of an , importing, become an exporting country. He had no objection to postpone the other resolutions, provi ded the first was adopted. Mr. ROSE wad perfectly convinced, that if this was passed into a law, it would be productive of the Most mischievous consequences. Sir JOHN NEWPORT supported the measure., It was foretold in 1806, when the door-was thrown open fur export in Ireland, that it would be against that country. On the contrary, however, the Agri culture of Ireland had increased every day since, and what had been found beneficial in one part of the United Kingdom could not be prejudicial to the other, Mr. 'WESTERN was of opinion, that the coun try should adhere to that system which had been so long followed frith advantage. It was a question or the greatest importance, and required the most ma ture deliberation. Mr. P. GRANT wished to re-establish the system of a century when we exported corn, in opposition to that of the laFt half century, during which we had been in the habit of importing it. If the country conid grow enough of corn for its own consumption, then the growth of it ought by al) means to be pro moted ; but if it could not, then importation - should be encouraged. He did not approve of a plan to en- COUVrge both•systems. Mi. MartitrATT supported the resolution. Mr. HORNER thought that when the Harase came to consider the other resolutions,it would see the pro priety of pausing, at least for some-time, before it went to a decision on so very important a measure. He wished that, once for all, the House would now decide on the interest, by which those were emitted who opposed the resolutions. The real interests of the consumer and of the landlord were one and the S.lllle. But What did the Committee prutess to du ? Why, to raise the price to the consunier.—( A Mem ber called out No !no !) He would ask whether the Hon. Member for the Queen's county (Sir H. Par. nell) had not acknowedged this on a former occasion,' and it the Hon. Member who favoured him with tie interruption, took pains to enquire, he would'find it was so. The necessary effect of the measure was per manently to increase the price of Corn. He approved of sonic parts of the vie.. wnich his Kiehl honourable Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, had taken of the question. Mr. W. SMITH read a paper that had been posted up in the city for which he was a Member, containing a petition that had been presented in boo Houses, couched in very warm terms against the measure, and representing it as a measure in favour of the great Landed proprietors, against the manufacturing interests of the country, and as having for its object the ruin of our manufactures, and the depopulation of tha country. The paper contained also an address to the people of Norwich, calling on them also to exert themselves against a measure so pernicious and de structive. Thispaper wastromNewcastic-upon-Tyne, wen which the petition had come also, though he was far from blaming either the Noble Lord who had presented it in the other House (Lord Grey) or the Hon. Gentleman oho had presented it here. This production was a proof, however, that they ought not to give any countenance to this language of ignorance and prejudice, which would too readily be sized out of doors. Mr. HARVEY vindicated the inhabitants of Nor wich, who fie said had perfect reliance on the wisdom of the House, in adopting such regulations as were most likely to advance the general prosperity. . Mr. W. SMITH disclaimed attributing the cla- mour in Norwich against the measure under conside ration to the population of that most respectable city, _but to a few malignant spirits. He at the same time declined giving an opinion of the measure in that stage of its progress. • Mr. LASCELLES recommended the greatest caution and deliberation in legislating upon this im portant subject. It was but last year that it was ask ed, could any person expect to live to see corn so low AS 10s. 6d. a bushel. Gentlemen had only to look to the present price, and the change that took place would sufficiently prove the necessity of proceeding with all possible care. There was one error in re spect to the fluctuation of price, which he was desi rous of removing. Supposing corn to sell at 1 '2s. at one time, and at Ss. subsequently, theadiffcrenre of price in that case was supposed to be the difference between eight and twelve. But this was not correct, because the excess in point of quantity sold at the lower price was to be taken into consideration, and subtracted from the excess of the one price above the other. He was hostile to the principle of Itgislating on prices, and wished them to be left to rise or tall by their own operation. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought that the principle of the first Resolution was so well uederstood, and so important to the interests of a large portion of the community, that it should pass as speedily as possible under the consideration of the House. In reply to arguments founded on the practice and authority of our ancestors, he observed, that since those times the foreign commercial relations of this country had been greatly changed. The othet IttleUlUtiOili be wished to be circulated and well un- derstood throusth the country before a final deterin4 nat:on.—Mr. ROSE ezplAined. - The first Resolution was then agreed to, and A Bill founded on k ordered to . be brought M. The Re port was ordered to be taken into further coniidera• two on Kinday. APPRINTICISHIP DILL. Mr, Serjeant ONSLOW moved the 2d reading of the Bill, to repeal the sth of Elizabeth. '. Sir F. FLOOD opposed the Bill, which he con sidered as one which would operate extremely to the prejudice of the public. It was said this would be a Bill of complete liberty, but in his opinion it ,would re a Bill of licentiousness. It would operate in a man ner extremely oppressive en those rrsoLs *he had served a regular arprent l ceship , by opening a door, and letting in upon them the scum of satiety, &evil together from here and there and every where.—(A Laugh.)—He hoped, previous to passing this Act; jurious to commerce, injurious to the mechanic, an act which would do aw•iy in..len:aires, and thus do away the Stamp Act, the Hoitte would pause— ( laugh.) A Bill which, by doing away the necessity ef stamps, would injt.re the reveuue„ and that at a time when the country was not in a situation to Cirow away money.—(A laugh). This wa, a Bill wijcl, had filit d ' the gallery with strangers, seeming with anxiety.— (Loud erica of Order !) He hoped, however, he st.ould deliver the House tiom any more trouble on this novel bill, which hid spi wig up, after a lapse of 220 cdil years— (A laugh)—by iliortng,That it be read a 2ci• time this day six mouths. Mr PROTHE,ROE opposed the Bill, which went to destroy the whole system of apprenticeship to re me fy its detects. He objected to tl , e measure in a moral point of view, in which resp - ct he was tiPield • by the opinions of Lord Coke' and Sir Wm. Black. stone. He had heard mach of vekatious prosecutions under Vie Act of Elizabeth ; but, inquiry, he found that at Btistol, for the last twenty years, there had not been one such preseciur 41. If apprenticeships were more encouraged, he was satisfied that comnina. t;ons among journey I:ien would almost entirely he put an end to. It the House were to lower its attention down to the leimble costaee, they would there see the advantages of this system, in beholding caret al sot is% ters provided for the youth, who, in addition, were provided with f-ied and clothing, wide their morals were protected. Lie should be harpy that die present Bill'wePe withdrawn, and some measure unaccompa. • tried by its disadvantages were introduced. Mr. HART DAVIS could not disguise Coto him, sell that the present measure was attended With many difficulties. It would undoubtedly be of great advan tage to our manufacturers that the present law should be repealed' arid that every restraint should be remov ed from the rising geeeration. Supposing a persons to be brought up to a trade for which, from his con stitution, he was not fit, was he to he excluded from pureeing ;any other pursuit or occupation whatever Suppose the trade of button makers., which was a !Jade that speedily passed away, or of gun-makers, i'tf whom probably 40,0(19 might in a few months be hrown out of employment, was is to be held that they could follow no other occupation, bat must re in on a burtheo upon the community ? 'The more he considered the present measure, the more he was sae usfied of iss utility. Mr. PROT EIEROE explained that he could aids, a general review cit the whole system. Mr. GIDDY thought, if any one measure more than another could be said to involve tie general rights of mankind, the present was that meesere.-e -hat was this but the general right of the in:nom:ants of this country, to employ tie en,rgies of their mind And bodys in the way they themseives pleased 2 And if a system were to be continued by which melt were deprived of this general and undoubted right, it seem ed to be incumbent on those who contended tor the Loreinuance of such a restrivion to chew am what eriticiple it was founded. It Gentlemen attended to the times in which the law us question was passed, they would find that it was a period in which many 111-advis.te nu.i.opolies bad been granted, and one in which remonstrances on that subject hau been n.ade by the House of Commons on the impolicy of such a system, which had not been much attended to. No thine, he was convinced, had co o n ih.uted so much as the law in question to check the progress in our arts and maniatactui es. Sir C. MORDAUNT, on the part or his consti:. Ituents, the Manulacturtrsof Birmingli.ani, was strong ly in favour of the present repeal. It t; - te Lew, as it stow stood, were put in torte, it would have the effect of imposing the strongest possible tettecs upon inge nuity and industry. Mr. THOMPSON wished the law totally repealed, though the Bill dial not go so far. The present law was necessarily broken every day. It was clear, that the Judges always wished to evade it, when they could do so. He knew a case of two men, who were prosecuted under the Act for sawing a piece of wood; another, of agood and a bad baker in the same town, Where tt.e bad one finding that the good one had not served a regular apprenticeship, had him turned out, and got liberty to poison all his neighbours with his bad bread. ( Laugh.) Some years ago the winters struck, and there was a difficulty in getting even the Parliamentary Papers printed. Let those who cause it bind their children as apprentices ; but let not . others be compelled to do the same. Instances of the absurdity of the law would be innumerable. It was none the better for the age of it, which the worthy Ba. mnet had stated. It was, in fact,supperannuated, and it was much the kindest way to let it die quietly, and so confer an advantage both in this country and in Ireland. (Laugh.) Lord Ellenborough got the coach-makers out et a scrape ingeniously enough., They were attacked as wheel-makera; but his Lord. ship said that coaches could not have been known in Etizabeth's days, as that Queen went to Parliament on horseback. Mr. ROSE agreed that this was an extremely dif ficult subject. He could nut consent that the 6yst rn of apprenticeships shined be put end tii ; but thought that in the Cowmii ce such aiteretions might be suggested as might remove the ebjections he, at present, telt to the Bill of the Leanne .sei re .nt. He was willing to examine and improve the sth o f Eo. zabeth, but he would not agree to tuts unqualitied repeal. Sir J. NEWPORT was astonished at the partiality expressed by the Hon. Baronet (Sir F. Flood) to the Act proposed to be repeeled, tie mine pal icularly as it never formed any part of the law of Ireland. On every principle of ju s tice lie was decideuly of op nice that the subject of this coun exercise of his talents, in; K } atever way he wished to Sir SAMUEL ROMII cn the subject of the preset of two Honourable Gentle livered their sentiments o (Messrs.
