The Order for the meeting to-morrow was consequently dis charged. and fixed for Friday. The Marquis of LA NSIDOWN then asked the Noble Earl what course he meant to take, and whether the House was to eepeet any s peaific propopoeidon founded on the papers j ust praented ? The Bari of LIVERPOOL observed that all he had to do was to lay the papers before the House, by command of his :Majesty, and having - delivered the papers, he left them to the consider ation of the House. bal GREY considered this a most extraordinary proceeding.

They appeared to be communicatioes which passed between the (him. Mr. Brougham, and his Majesty's Ministers, from the ph of June to this day, with pro tocol: ofeonferenoes held in St. James's Square. The LORD CHANCELLOR the n ien tut the question et adjournment, end the House was adiou TUESDAY. JIJNIC 10. Lord AUCKLAND moved, that the Insolvent Debtors' BM be printed, and gave notice, that he should move the second reading wheat the prints were on the table. The Loan Bitt was read a second time, and Lord Liver. pool gave notice of his lutention to move the third seadiug to-morrow. Earl GROVENOR made some remarks hostile to the additional military force at present kept up, and con sidered It inconsistent with the spirit of economy. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, his Majesty's ser vants had acted in this instance, as in all others ' with strict adherence to the recommendation contained hi the Speech from the Throne Earl GRO3VENOR was not satisfied with the expla nation of the Noble Earl, and gave notice of a motion for the redactiou of the aforesaid additional force to. morrow. The Horse went into Committee on the Aliens soil Denisen's Bill, in which the Earl of LAUDILRDALE lOtoVrii to limit the: duration of the Bill to one year instead of two. The motion was negatived wittiont a division. The Hal then passed through a Committee.

JUNE 21. The Aliens and Denizens' Bill was read a third time and passed. The Loan Bill was read a third time. REDUCTION tN TUE Aaiay.—Earl GROSVENOR rose on the third reading of the Mutiny Rill, to move, pursuant to notice, for the reduction of the additional military tutee.—The Noble Earl said, he considered the inhabitants ot the country attached to the Constitution, and likely to be 'lamed by the ap pearance of a standing army. There were nearly 100 barracks to different parts of the country. The barrack system was objec tionable. The increase of barracks was nets Toned by reports in various parts that Radicals were to be found in the neighboue hood, and wherever such a report was found to prevail troops were moved to the spot and barracks erected for their reception. The Noble Earl, =tiff all the cirCUinstauices proposed a reduction of 11,000 from 94,000 provided for by the Bill. He accordingly moved to make the said reduction. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, he was happy to state, the dissatisfaction to which the Noble Earl alluded had subsided in many pare of the kingdom, and he thought the Noble Earl would have shown more prudence if he had abstained from saying one word on the subject. If the reduction proposed was Olitalo sary for the peace and welfare of the counrzy.koslistdd agree soh ; but it was the opinion of every wti•lttgtrfMd 111114 at the end of last year, and the beginning of 'kik deal dio in. creased force was indispensable for the preserved* of dos peace of the country. That being admitted, he shook. not suffer any object the Noble Earl might have to turn him flan the adoption ICL: ._ VIE NATIONAL REGISTER. of any ettewasa cesarean for the welfare and security of the country. • The modes was the put and negatived ; after which the Bilk was read a third Me and passed. The House adjourned. a • • V% sievesnoT. 3D 14 E 22. TARE QUE EN.—Ths Earl of t.IVF.IIPOOI. this day &dama ged a numerous assemblage of Peters, upon the unhappy .differ coma which at present exist. in nearly the terms following : " My Lords, it is with extreme regret, after what had passed on tic subject of the papers submitted to a Secret Committee, that I rise to propose any further adjournment on the order fixed for to-morrow ; but circumstances have twine to my knowledge since your Lordships last met in this House, that lead me still to hope an adjournment of the Committee may render an investi gation of the papers unnecessary. Under this view I should not think I acted consistent in the course we have adopted, if I did not propose a further adjournment of the Committee to Tuesday next. At the same time. lem fully sensible of all the incon venience which must arise from delay. It is nothing but pressing necessity makes me adopt this course, and I assure your Lord • ships, that in case I should on Monday find such an adjourn ment ineffective. I will then proceed" L a GREY.—" I •mtainly cannot but feel it is extraordinary such &proposal should be made ; but when the Noble Earl hers from circumstances which have recently come to his knowledge. to remove the necessity of enquiry upon the present u nhappy differences. it is impossible tbr ins to opp ose the motion .: t same time I cannot help looking at the exttiondinary situation this House is placed in, by the unxitain and vacillating conduct of the Noble Lords opposite. It appears that Ministers have never had courage to make up their minds to give advise to their Sovereign when this unhappy case was proposed to them for negociation. It mu for them to see whether there were grounds for accusation against the Queen, her Majesty or not. If there existed grounds,. it was their duty to act up to the law. If there were grounds to induce them to abstain from bringing it forward. it was their duty to state the reasons upon which they acted.— The green bag came forward to' fright the Island, as it were, from its pro e ncty.' On the Message coming coming down they appointed a committee to take the contents of the bag into con • sideration. In consequence of something done driewhere we adjourn from day to day. and now the last period of adjourn ment has arrived. we obtain no benefit from the suspense." Lord LIVER POOL—" I feel it important, atter the speech of the Noble Earl, to say a few words.—The Ministers of the Crown were the only persons acquainted with the papers. and the only persons qualified to make a communication on the sub ject, or put off that communication. He was prepared to say, the moon then before the House was one of great public and he begged the House to suspend their judgment ei = Ministers had an op to explain their conduct.

After an admission by the Kin7's Ministers that they had engaged in • proceeding which could only terminate in the aforesaid manner, it was impossible for the lords to continue such a proceeding.— He therefore gave notice, that in ease his Majesty's Ministers did not come prepared on Monday to state some new proposition, he should himself submit& motion to the House, and moved that the Lords be summoned for Monday. The Ministers being, with the exception of the Lord Chancel lor, out of the House, the Noble Earl received no answer to his question. The LORD CHANCELLOR instantly put the question of adjournment. and the House adjourned to Monday. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY, JUNK 19. RIOT MONEY.—Lord NIGENT asked, as there bad been some distothuoce amongst the military, and knowing nothing of any lin:ie./bed pay being allowed to the men on being called into actual service, how long it had been the practice to giant, under certain circumstances, an allowance enticr the name of Rint Money ? Mr. BECK ETT was not prepared to give any disliect AU/MCI.

The appearance of Lord Castlereagh in the House brutight down Members in increased hers. Every part of u, the side galleries, &c. became crowded be yond description. Lord Castlereagh then appeared at the Bar, and the Speaker, according to the customary form, enquired— " What have you got there i" Lord CASTLEREAGH.—" Papers, by command of his Majesty i" The Speaker.—" Please to bring them up." Lord Castiereagh °eget the pspers, and handed them to the clerk. His lordship the;: moved that the titles of the papers be read.— Motion agreed to. The Clerk of she Huuse then read the titles of the papers. They were--a EU. eeeee uulcation from the Queen to Lord Liverinuol, dated Juue 9, and his lordship's answer of the Ilia June; a einiunnuicasiun from the Queen to Lord Liverpool, June IS, and his lordship's answer; and a c"iwnuoteatlua to Laid Liverpool, accom panied by a note from Mr. Brougham, proposing that arhitratuis be named, and Lord Liverpool's answer, June 15. There were ui.o protocols e 0 notes of confer ences held at St. JaMeN'a Square, and at the Foreign Office. There were five of those eunfereirees ' the pro tocols prepared at which meetings were presmated. The titles of the Paper. having beets read, Lord CASTLEREAGH again rose, but owing to the low tone in *larch he spoke, and the cries of Hear! his Lordship was indistrectly heard. He had presented the communications that bad taken place, and arcoutsts of the conlerences the had been held; but he lassressied to add, as the House would learn on perusing the documents, that the negotiations which had occur red had not led to any satisfactory arrangement.—(Cries of Hear I)—He was grieved to have this statement to make; but after having presented, in compliance with his Majesty'• most gracious command, various documents, he did nut intend to propose that any further deliberation should be pro ceeded in at the present moment. That the House might have time to investigate the authentic documents now laid before them, and which were la progress of printing, and would be ready for delivery early to-morrow, he should more, that the adjourned debate on Iris Majesty's most gracious message be resumed on Wednesday next. He proposed to adjourn over to-morrow, in order that time might be allowed to deliberate cm the Papers, documents that it would be essential to have under consideration In the approaching debate on the message; and he therefore now moved, that the order of the day for resuming the adjourned debate on his Majesty's most gracious message be read for the purpose of its beim; discharged lie should then .move, that the &Quarried debate be resumed on Wednesday next. Mr. BROUGHAM nest rose. We understood him to lament, in comma with the Noble Lord. the anfavouradde result of theseaaeeggoefatieus which had taken place; to be deeply coscerued that they had had es euhappy a tenable- Wu. That however no blame, be thought au viewiag the documents, it would be admitted, attocbed itself to the Queen; but it was probable the House weight eventually be of °vision that there was blame somewhere. The questloo was then put and agreed tu, and the debate an the elessage adjourned to Wednesday. THe libitum—The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE QUER moved, that the House resolve itself into a Com mittee of Ways and Meats, which was agreed to.
