SIR S.ltll El. 1.0411.1. v spoke in support of the second reso lution. lie entered into a lung and very able review of Ow virious farts and circumstances attending the deposition of the N ;OW) of the c:irliatie, and, trim a review of the whole ease, be cow rive it hi,rse:f justified in prootomeing it an act of uqjusti liable ambition, li Irdlx to be paralleled by any of those acts of violence which we 11 , ,t1 lately witnessed on the Continent of Europe. This tesolti ion, therefore, should meet with his de cided support, inastnut as it 'expressed those ideas of British policy which, in his opinion. might to be pursued, and pledged this country to afford that redress to the injured sufferers, which was now within their power. Loan Citert.wn ',Ann conceived that the House, after a deli berate exasni;tition during two separate discussions, had already come to a fair decision a negativing the charge of injustice and criminality. Did the Learned Gentleman think that by the Caw which he had endavoured to make out, he should be able to induce the House to revise the vote and decision which they had already come to ? The Noble Lord then adverted to the great length of time during which the charge was suspended. The Noble Lord then entered upon a long reply, contending, that even previous to the examination of the witnesses, Lord Wellesley bad made up his mind with regard to the treasonable proceedings of the Arcot Family. He conceived that a Govern *tient might justifiably adopt a great measure of policy, thoueli they were not prepared, nor perhaps able to prove the hostile intentions of the enemy by sorb proofs as were admissible in a Court of Justice. The Noble Lord then tidVerted to the letter *at passed between the Nabob Wallajah and Tippoo which he contended were of a political nature, and hostile to our Indian interests. With regard to the reasons of this treacherous correspondence with Tippoo, he Was disposed t.• ascribe them to impatience of British influence that was not unnatural, and also to h principle Of religious bigotry and at tachment. The Noble Lord then proceeded to support at great length the liaeofpolicy pursued' by the Marquis of WellesleN with respect to The Commie, anecoticludcd by giving his de cided negative to the Resolution. A division took place, when there • appeared ► against the ..Re solution, 97—For it, 19. Ma. 11".nr.rre then proposed a Resolution to this effect : "That the Niarquis"Wellesley, in his conduct towards the Na bob of the Carnatic, had been actuated solely by a regard to the merest of the British Li:Tire in India."

Kess, believe) who humanely ads ised them to return to their employ ment, lest a contrary conduct should subject them to disagreeable consequeuces. Every thing has been tranquil during this day. Yestesday, it is generally reported and believed, a large bony of refractory weavers met upon Cheadle Muss, and indicated tither a riotous disposition; hut the appearance of a troop of cavalry produced the effect of dispersing them, though not tenth s veral men had been apprehended.
