Z( the principle of the flight Honnttfaisk Ge,., action, then indeed all air calamities Were explain.— He should now vote heartily for the resolutions, and the only repugnance which he felt was, at their fibt gdlng to an impeachment and ccnirt-martial. When he said this, however, he declared he saw no good to the country from the dismissal of Ministers, unless it was followed by a total change of measures.--( Hear, hear, hear.)--If we wished to be rescued from our present perilous situation, we must have reform — reform which would revive and re-establish the an eiedt, fundamental principles of our Constitution:— Unless this was obtained, neither himself nor the Country would be satisfied. From the folly of our not demanding this arose all our calamities. From it arose this expedition—this child of corruption, ex: pining by its own inherent imbecility. All their cala- I mities, all their disgraces, were derived from the 1, want of a fair and equal representation. To that, and that alone, the people ought to look ; it would be folly to expect relief from any other cause. If this was obtained, they would no longer see ministerial weakness working an abandoned prostitution. This was their only avenue of escape from ruin, imminent I ruin.. For himself, he cared not, if that thin was to , come, whether it came in. the shape of a rotten bo rough, or au open iron despotism. The present im-1 mediate question he should now decline; he did not wish to think of it ; he could not with any temper speak of it. In private life if he saw the catastrophe of men so brave, so patient, so martyred, he could call it nothing else than cool, deliberate, atrocious 1 stutuixn.—( Hear, Hear, Hear.) —Though Ministers 41.ihinawelve hours sail of Wolcheren might have had every information, they would not deign to seek it, bat sent their soldiers unheedingly to their grave. They. now called for vengeance—the honour of the House was pledged to give it ; and, for himself, he Would say nothing but instant impeachment and court martial should satisfy the nation for the cruel effusion of their army's blood. Mr. BATHURST, in opposition to some of th doctrines of the Hon. Baronet, maintained that it was the degeneracy of that. liberty which had roused the people to energy in the first ancient state to which the Hon. Baronet alluded, that led to its subjection to a-foreign despot. The passions of the multitude, in flamed- by factious advocates, who were never want ing, led to a spirit of licentidusness, which, in the end, made them an easy prey to the Macedonian Monarch. The same spirit had subjected the other State, as had lately happened in a neighbouring country, to a mili tary despotism, under a single ruler. It was the hap-_ piness of this country to pas,e A its Parliament, to con troul the encroachments of the higher orders, and it behoved the Parliament not to omit to do its duty.— II in the discustion of the question' . under considera tion, he should treat calmly and ,die innately, he trusted that he would not forfeit hiveiaiin to the at tention-of the House. He could not admit that the question had been put fairly by the Noble Lord (Cas tlereagh) or the Right Honourable Gentleman (.Jr. Canning.) They seemed to have argued it in the form of a syllogism, which was not borne Cut by the fact. They reasoned as if, because we lead a dispo sable force, that force should be employed in support of our ally. But it. had been said, that we had no where a point of contact with that :.fly ; and the Noble Lord and the Right Honourable Gentleman then contended, that as our disposable force could not be sent to any other point ia 1 7 .urope, it ought to have been sent to Antwerp. Against that doctrine he must protest. No State could require as,isiam.e of this country, which, compatibly with its own in terests, it could not afford. He protested against the argument which called upon the House, to say where the force was to he employed, if not against Antwerp ? It had been said, that that House was not, from the habits or pursuits of Members, fit to discuss questions of a military destrtptiod. But it was the duty of Parliament to watch over the conduct of his Majesty's Ministers, as well with respect.to military as other public measures. The question was as to the expediency, possibility, and practicability, of the expe dition ; and, when considered as a diverzion, supposing it to have been successful, how far it could operate as a diversion ? As a coup.de.main, it was to have been something sudden but impressive, which was not to be of long continuance or protracted operation. As a diversion, it could only operate so far :wit might oc cupy troops which might otherwise be sent to reinforce the French army on the Danube. The probability was, that it would only occupy the force which remained in thegarrisons, without lessening the number of troops sent to reinforce the enemy. The next question was, how the Government had set about accomplishing their object? The Naval Arsenals at Antwerp and the Fleet in the Scheldt were, equally with Walche ren, the objects of the Expedition. It was his opi nion, that at the time the Expedition was first thought of, two of the objects, Welchem and the feet, were attainable with very slight hazard. To an en terprize en such an extensive scale as that which had. been undertaken, a well-connecte.l Combination of plans for the two services was necessary for suc cess. No such combination had been preoared, no arrangements appeared to have been - Made for the conduct of the united °operations. This was some thing that called for inquiry. • The opinions of the Itillitaty men who had been consulted, proceeded on a suppiiiitiod that no enemy was to be en countered. The Right Honourable Gentleman then took a re,_ view ofthe reports of the different military men who had, een consulted. It was rather an extraordinary stigument of the NOble.Lord and of the Right Ho-i nourable Gentleman, that :because the ulterior ob. jects had not been attempt4the merits of the plan could not be ascertained. A great part of the pro at of final success often depended upon previous ..-rangernents, even upon the first step.
