TOE NATIONAL REGISTE Mr. PONSONav also wished toascertain, if the Noble-Lord thought it w ere not enquiring too minutely, whether his Majesty's Govern. m erit intended to take any aggressive steps previously to receiving intelli~eore from Vienna ?—(Some murmurs.) Lossl CASTLEREAGH. said lie would submit to the House whether he ought to be called on to state what course the Government would pursue. (Hear.) aPteins OF ITALY. Mr. PoNSoNrIT next desired to know whether the Noble Lord would object to the production of the pipers respecting Sicily, and the iii,tructions to Lord %V. Bentinck, respecting Italy and Sicily, during the years faille.: and 13 ; and if lie wonld not agree to the production of the whole. how tar the Noble Lord was disposed to acquiesce hi a motion for such papers. Lord CAgTLY.R,EAG H. according to what he could at present see of the wishes of the Right Hon. Gentleman, thought he rhould not have to object to the intended motion ; but the papers respecting a part of the specified period could only be produced. The papers respeetiog the most recent communications on the aff a i rs o f Si c ily, lie (eared, could not yet be produced. Mr PoisoNn also wished the instructions to Lord t. Ben thick, regarding Italy in general, to be laid before the House. Lord CASTLEREAGH expceted that he should be able to agree substantially with the Right Hon. Gentleman's motion. The general feature of the instnictions to Lord W. lientinek was, to take ad vantage of any rising that he might observe in Italy. Mr. PONQONBY would submit the terms of his motion to the Noble Loud, ;and if there were any occasion he should submit it to the House on Tuesday next, TALLEI'RAND'S LETTER ON NAPLES. Mr. WHITBREAD desired to know whether the letter from Prince Talleyrand to Lord Cistlereagh, respecting the Throne of Naples, was substantially correct as it had appeared in son►c of the papers Lord CASTLEREAC tt had already told the Hon. Member, on a former occasion, that he (Lord C.).must abstain from saying any thing on those matters, the papers respecting which could not yet be fail' before Parliament. The proper titne would come for giving information on the subject mentioned by the Hon. Member, when the Government would not shrink from any enquiry that he could institute —(Ilcar !) Mr. WHITBREAD deemed the Noble Lord's answer tantamount to an admi•*ion of tl►e letter : for he said he should be prepared to deti•ud his conduct. If the time really would come when ti►e Noble Lord would give the House intbrmation, he should rest satisfied ; he should t h en wait patiently fir all those notable letters, in which P►iuce Hardeoberg, Prince Talleyrand, and my Lord Castlereagh cut such a figure! Cries of Order called up the SPEAKER, when the conversation Ira; terminated by instantly proceeding to dispose of the orders of the day. The Trish Sugar Drawback Bill was read a third time and passed. The Lich Treasury Bills Bill was read a second time.---Committee on Monday. Mr. V. FITZG ERA LD, in a Committee of Supply, moved the MU dry animal Grants for public Institutions, &c. in Ireland. Report on Monday. CIVIL LIST ACCOUNTS. Mr. TIERNEY moved that the accounts relative to the Civil List Accounts, recently Isid on the table of the House, be referred to a Select Committee, with powers to examine witnesses, records, &c. In submitting this motion to the House, the Right Hon. Gent. took occasion to go largely into the Civil List Expenditure, observing that he was anxious to arm the Committee with power to examine per , ems and papers, because he should be thereby enabled to m a ke out that c a se tallied; he knew could be established. His object was eart:lih»ent of the I' xpenditnre, which had increased enormously svi:lnu the last ten years. The expellees of last summer, in conse. (peace of the presence of certain Illustrious Visitors, were undoubt edly very great, and, in sonic instances, appeared extravagant ; but, fur those expenses, many allowances were to be made. He did not so much complain of them, as of the increased scale of the Civil List Expenditure ; it was that invariable extent of expellee which he wished curtail and limit The CHANCELLOR of the EXCIIECVER opposed the motion, as quite unnecessary. After a long disenssion, the motion wa, CcUricd with :ouic amend intnts..,--Mjeorned to iquidy. - A PRIL 16. L )f P, )f • 1- 4 . le ). ' fl,t 9 •••-•••• TUESDAY'S Lniii)()N G-I.:LTTE. BANKRU PIS. W.
