He could not Arget that year after year, in - • opening 'the Budget, delusive statements had been made of the flourishing resources of the Company, with a view to induce assistance from the public, and that they had a large surplus, &c. Not one of these statements was true—he, therefore, could not consent. to give away the public money. Mr. CREEVEY, as one of the 'Members of the Committee on the Affairs of India, was ready to give his opinion, that from all he knew upon the subject, the Company would not be enabled to repay the loan now asked for. He coincided with his Honourable Friend, that if the money was granted, it must be con sidered as a gift, and not a loan. Some means, in his opinion, ought to be devised, to stop the progress of the American trade from the East, either by a revi sion of the Act of 1793, which granted them too much, or by some other mode, so as to take it out of the hands of the Americans, and transfer it to British individuals. When the subject came fully before the House he should be prepared to contend that as the Company's resources were so uncertain, it would be desirous that the dividends on the capital should be decreased. It was evident that the Company were carrying on a trade from Indiawith no surplus revenue. Sir JOHN NEWPORT laid in his claim for a reconsideration of the Act which admitted the Com pany to monopolise the trade from India, allowing Ireland only to export, but notbring home goods from that quarter. The Honourable Baronet agreed with his Honourable Friends, that if the money asked for was granted, it must be considered as a gift. Mr. GRANT had no wish to take the House by surprise. At the same timete must be allowed to observe, that the Honourable Gentlemen opposite, par ticularly one (Mr. Creevey ), had been rather prema ture in giving their opinions before the Committee had made their Report. The effect of those opinions (though certainly not intended) would be to prejudice the House and the public mind. With respect to the American trade, that was owing to their being a neutral nation which gave them, in the present state of Europe, a preference over British subjects. The Ho nourable Gentleman, therefore, ought not to accuse the Comyany of monopoly. How far it might be right to give opinions upon a subject before the docu ments were on the table, he could not say, but he must protest against such a practice. As to decreas ing the dividends, the House would require more evi dence betbre they consented to suck a measure. The public had a right to expect their dividends. If such a measure was to be resorted to, the stockholder would be deprived of his just right. He denied that the loan asked for was to be considered as a gift. Upon an examination, the House would be satisfied that the Company's affairs were not so unprosperous as some Honourable Gentlemen described them to be. Mr. PONSONBY had no objection to referring the Petition to the Committee, bet could not approve of the object of it. It was clear to his mind, that the aid prayed for was, if granted, no other than a gift, for, by the admission of the Honourable Director, the' money so advanced was to pay the dividends due to the stockholders. If the Company were left to their own resources, it was also clear that they would fail; for they could neither pay their dividends, nor up hold their credit. The loan was, to all intents, a tax upon the public. It might be advisable for the House, when the documents were before them, and the report of the Committee made, to consider wile. slier it would be proper to continue the charter, in the present situation of the Company's affairs. In his opinion, it was high time to do away all delusions — all concealment, and to bring forward a clear and cor rect statement of the Company's finances. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUR de nied that surprise had been attempted. When their affairs were properly before the House, it would be seen that the Company are creditors to the Public— Was it, therefore, either proper or desirable to refuse assistance under such circumstances? Mr. TIERNEY contended, that the Company were entitled to the Loan which they required (1,(200,0001.) —He considered his Hon. Friends had dealt hardly with them, in stating opinions and refusing assistance before the documents on which to form their judgment were on the table. In giving his opinion as to the propriety of granting the money, he grounded it on his knowledge, as a Committee-man, of the state of their finances ; which knowledge satisfied his mind that the money might be safely advanced to the ex tent required. The Honourable Gentleman declared he was no advocate for the general system upon stlich the East India Company had acted for many years ; perhaps that system might be a bad one.— Thus much he would say, however, that they had always shewn every disposition to lay a fair statement of their affairs before Parliament. He was anxious that the public should not run away with the impres sion that the affairs of that great Commercial Com- Ipany were in a ruinous or deplorable state, and he conceived such Language to be highly improper. Mr. PONSONBY explained. Sir JOHN ANSTRUTHER denied that the East India Company came there to ask any gratuitous grant. They only asked for what was always given to commercial men, namely, a loan to enable them to get over some embarrassments created perhaps by the measures of that Government from whom they asked relief, and which was thereby bound to sup port their credit. The Honourable Baronet then enu merated the various loans which had been granted to the East India Company for these thirty years past, all of which had been punctually repaid, and he saw no reason to hinder them from repaying the present advances also. He denied that ever any attempt had been made by the East India Company to conceal the state of their affairs, or to delude the public by false statements. As to what had been said about throw ing open the trade of India, he doubted much if it was in the pswler of this country to extend its export trade by such a measure ; upon this question he would not say much at present z but if ever it came be fore the House it a regular shaPe, - he would insist on its being argued on purely commercial grounds. Mr. HOWARTH complained of the want of do cuments and accounts from tho East India Company, on which to found their claims for the relief of Par liament. Mr. DUNDAS said, that every necessary account and document was before the Committee on India Affairs. He justified one of the Noble Lords who was charged by a Right Honourable Gentlethas opposite with a backwardness to exhibit the true state of India Affairs. On the contrary, the Noble Lord in question (we believe Lord Melville was here alluded to) had' continued repeatedly, day alter day, aid Session after Session, to call the attention of Parham ( to a full investigation of the Affairs of India. After a few words from Mr. TIERNEY, i h , planation, the Petition was referred to the Commit lon India Affairs. MILITIA AND VOLUNTEERS.

A letter from a Spanish port, dated the 6th inst.states that a deputation of Spanish Grandees had bczn4„ patched by the new Government to Bayonne, them to communicate to BONAPARTE the wish of that Go. - vernment that the French troops should be withdrawn from Spain. The result of this missior must deciiivtly unfold the views of BONAPARTE, A letter from Bourdeaux, brought by the same con. veyance through which we received the details of the late Revolution at Madrid, states, that BoNAtasrt was, on the Ist of April, within nne stage of Bout. deaax, on his route to Bayonne, A Gentleman is arrived in town from Selz Hle, which place he left &a the `ld of April. He consrms the accounts already stated of the revolation ; and his statements tend to support the opinion of those who are willing to believe that the late revolunonhas been effected to save Spain from the yoke of France,not to bring her mote decidedly and immediately under her dominion. The people, he says, in that province,he lieved at least that this was the character of the grqt 'event that had taken place. They considered the new Ministers as-patriots, from whom salvation was to be expected. In St. Lucar, especially, the populacc nA held public rejoicings, bull feasts, 8:c. The friends and partizans of the late omnipotent Minister were . hooted and hissed wherever they appeared. In the mean while, that unhappy favourite lies in a vile pn- ! son, destitute of the common comforts of life, proba• bly about to atone for his real crimes by a punishment as illegal as the acts of his own administration. We wish we could doubt the issue of this revolution. Spain lies already entangled in the snares of French intrigue, or will speedily be vanquished by an irresistible mill Lary force.
