His Lordship anti he had. on a former veining, 'adverted to *pan:refer poinui whic.h,the House had tenet late conside. ration. •It had been strenuously argued that this case shotild be derided on Merits which the law of Scotland slid net. recognize. By *e English Corporation: Law, a disttilinta was made in rho wade of proceedlag pursued by Corprra•e•Boelitti, When they masted .11: a deflante or an indtfinire number; sad also between those whose charters specified that " 4 major parr idlould concur in any official act, and those whose charters did not con tain such a provision. But he found, by a case decide.' by the Scotch Courts, so fat back as the year 1747, that nb dhtinction of that kind was then admitted. in Scotland; soda, brroother tles cision, t.f.the year Iso3, the same systemscemod f.o be acted upon, He therefore thought it would be attended with the most dau. gemus consequences, to alter or abrogate thit.course 01 . proceeding which bad,prevailed l i re the Scotch Cotirfi fifelhalf a oentury. The second point which had been argued was, that thotetbroplaining of theta done by a minority of the CurposashspeiCuiross, had no legal right to conlplain, inasmuch as they_thetnvelves were sniff lly absent. Now, this was a very .good Frei, if sufficient legal evidence had been adduced to plac e th e wind! abgence Veyond doubt. Bet, although he himself suspected, 'lta!‘ although as an individual, he believed the absence of Malta* have been inter. tonal, yet suspicion, however strung, was not a ground upon which their Lordships could decide—legaland undoubted evidence of the fact was absolutely necessary. ft had been alto contended, that in point of fact, a majority hadaisembled at the'time speci fied—now the Corporation consisted of eighteen persons, and those making this aseruon allowed, that but nine of those persons had been collected; " but," said tioey, in order to prove that aim was a strihrity of eighteen, " one of those persona had a raving vote," as tf because when the -wide hay met, this casting vote was 4 e'lowed, that, therefore, it should be allowed in aril ocher cases. ''Litz tnore he thought of this proposition, the : more was he con. tinted that it could not be tolerated. Under 41 these circuna. stances, he should' move, " That the decision of the Court of Session be affirmed."--,Agreedto. • ' '. . • Titn MUST. ' "0.7 1 ' ais Lord DARNLEY rose, pursuant to notice, tti call the attention of their Lordships to the presonti state of the regular defence of the gountry.—He had sore time ago put a question to his Majesty's Ministertrespecting a report that wergenerally pre.' vailed,of an intention, on the part of - Government; to send almost the whole of the regaltrr force in the, country on foreign expeditions. To that questi on he received' no • satisfactory answer. He therefore re. solved to bring forward a distinct motion, the object • of which would be to ascertain what number of regu. lar troops, and of what description, bad - been sent out of the country since the month of September last. After themelancholy proof we have had of the disasters and disgraces which the ignorance and incapacity of Ministers have brought upon the country; after the glaring indications they have betrayed of their utter i unfitness to manage the military means of the country, were they to be permitted blindly to.run in the same • mad career, and to squander away our remaining force, to which alone the nation could now look for protection and security ? With the fatal effects of the calamitous Expedition to Walcheren, staring us in the face, were we to permit . Ministers to doom the remainder of our regular troops to the same unaVaill ing sufferings, to the same dishonourable fate ? He trusted their Lordships would interpose and rescue the army, and indeed the country, from The inciscre. , tion and mismanagement of the present Administra ' lion; and not allow the means of our 'domestic secu rity to be fruitlessly wasted away on foreign exeedi. lions. With that view he should wish their L o rdships to be informed respecting the number of troops which have lately been sent on foreign service ; and in order to procure that information he should now move an humble Address to his Majesty, praying his Majesty would be graciously pleased to give directions that .there be laid before that House a return ot the num ber of troops, in infantry, cavalry, and artillery, which have been ordered-for foreign service since the let . September, up to the present time. The Earl of LIVERPOOL opposed the motiod. Indeed the Noble Lord had himself, on a former 611. casion, anticipated the objection upon whichhe should now greufid that opposition. He saw no reason why a it should be supposed that his Majesty's Government were misemploying the military force of the country. The Noble Lord had adduced no argumentbn'which to justify such a suspicion. He had stated no specilit reason on which to rest the "propriety of acceding le his motion. He, however, felt it liable to many ob. jections, and particularly to the danger of conveying information to the enemy. Was the enemy to be apprised to what quarter we were directing the ap plication of this force ?
