The Earl of LI VERPooI, rose to propose a motion of attiomnment ; anit, after a few pi efitory remarks, observed, that, although not an imperative duty on him, Mill as it might be expected, hp should Aay some upon the occasion, in consegn nee of the timanil leoath of tnne he was about to propose it to take place for. He then proceeded to no , ive the unusual period at vi Web the House had uiet far the dispatch of business ; and contended, that although pat lial»Cnt ure to alivorn to the tune he meant to propose, the Ist of still it would he then found, that they had sat more days, sad dispatched more business, than in the ordinary course. After a variety of observations, his Lordship stated, that any shorter ad journment would trod to impede ratite' than facilitate those great objects which his Mijesty's Ministers had in view ; and.he could 11 , 4 ',creche that any Hwy or &day could arise, either to the pub lic or judicial husiut....., of that Howe, and he was codident in **lag no public incomenience or disadvantage %void(' result tram it. The Earl of D.,' I.EY went at considerable length into the sOriect, and said. if he inidergood the N Lord, the constructi,at.t f lii , His re%olved tlntonselves to this, that Parliament had nothing to do but to o er,rd the oneasiires of hoovers, and dispatch a:I the both& sort private Bills, txg. ; after which their sitting was not absolutely atecessary.

It shunt(' be recollected that Parliament, Aq far tr ou t ha% mg throw ii ally obi.tacles in the way of Ministers, had, on, the contrary, shenn an unbounded liberality, and an overweerring ; and there were parts of their conduct that were deserving of enquiry. Still, however, it had been forborne, but forbearance be. came et iatinal beyond a certain point. He dtd not purpose, however, bringing forward soy motuni on the subject.

Mr. - H , •RNEIII ro.e and put some uestrous to Lord Castlereagh on the subject of the Declaration of the Allied Sovereigns, and whether this Government was concerned in the offers of peace etude to Buonaparte. 1.41111 CASTLERLAGII felt no difficulty in stating, that the parer alluded to was authentic. He bad also the satisfaction of saying, that the most pertivt convert prevailed in the views of the Aihot, and that all the mra.sures hid' had been adopted had been mai krd by cordiality. What the paz ticular measure was, to which the Hon. Member alluded and what was its result, lie trusted, that, for various reasons, the House would not, at that time, press him to state. ADJOURNMENT. 1.014 CASTLIME AGH then rose and proposed that the House should at its rising adjourn to the fst of March. Sir JAMES MACINTOSH, in a luminous sweet), opposed so distant on adjournment, on grounds similar to those advanced in the Upper House by Lord Darnley. He concluded by moving, as an amend ment, " that the House, at its rising do adjourn to "the 14111 of la unary," C-11. ST. PAUL, in a maiden speech, supported the adjournment in °posed by Lord Castlereagh. Mr. Wit 11 1311 EA D said, if he were to support the proposed amend ment of his Hoe. Friend, he should be aeting inconsistent with the hole of his conduct, through the present Session. He was cer tainly as anxious as any one to • nfurce generally the %ijlatice of Parliament but, trusting as he had done, to the moderate derlara- Liens of Government at the commeneenient of the Sessions—and with that confidence whirl' he had then placed in his Majest Mi ulster., increased, as it now was, by hearing it declared by the Noble Lord, that this government wax a party in the glorious Ma nifesto published from Frankfort, on the Ist of December, 1w was noiv inclined to give them 11.4 fullest eonfideece, lice and Mk" s hack led ; but in doing so, he reserved to himself a NH right of strictly examining their conduct when Parliament should meet again. Neither did he. think that, under existing circumstances, any event could arise which - would call for the letedrienee of Parliament before the time mentioned by the Noble Lord. Look ing to the progress of events on the Continent, he irteted they would eventually lead to peace : if, however, our further exertions were neer wry, still adhering to the principle upon which we were at present acting—that war, the attainment Dia fair and lunumrable iwace—he wai persuaded every one would be ready to make limber exiTtious. With these feelings, and throwing the respoesibility upon the Noble Lord and his colleagues--not to abuse the great power erti toed to them, he should give his most unconditional and un qualified assent to the motwit of Lord Castlereagh. Mr. Aluocromhie and Sir Samuel Romilly supporteri the Amend meet, atid Mr. Protherne and Mr. GrenfeU opposed it. The Amendment was then put, and negatived without a 41164011: after which the oti,ival Motion was agreed to.—The !louse that ,iojuutned to Ihe 1.1 . of March. TuEso4 Y'S LONDON - GAZETTE.
