soihave undertakes to be its advocate. He presumed, its the first place, that every person of the Royal Family belonged to the Civil List, and had claims on it foe a suitable provision, and he did not know how Ministers cool.' reconcile it to themselves to say to one of the Royal Family, Go, you shall have nothing to live upon. Be always heard that io a British Court there was no wrong without a remedy ; but the lady on whose behalf he appeared, had good reason, onliis some official per son took her case, to say that hers was a wrong without a remedy. If, on the.other band, her claims were false, and that she impudently and unjustly claimed an al. liance to which she had no right, the Ministers were bound to protect the Royal Family from the calumny of such a falsehood. He. would merely move the question without going into any 'details, as he had it in codnmand —(hear and laughter)—from this lady of the Royal Family—{!angling)—Yes, lie would consider her of the Royal Blood, until ber statements were proved false —not to say any thing unpleasant to the feeiings of any one of her family. But he could, if necessary, say something very strong, and he called on Ministers for their own sakes and that of the country, to attend to the claims of this lady, he would move that her petition be referred to a Special Committee. I'Lere were some remarks made, that, because be allowed the petition to remain so long without notice, he was afraid to call it into notice ; hut those who said so were much mistaken, fur fear did not enter into a part of his composition. Ile trusted that the petition would meet attention, and hoped that no person would be guilty . of the levity of idly throwing it from them without giving it due cow. .ideration. - Some Members might hi apprehensive of losing their seats, if their votes were not regulated in a certain manner. He had no fears on that account, as he was certain of coming into Parliament, even if a reform took place to-morrow.—(A laugh.) He had been for twenty-six years in Parliament, and in the time of Mr. Pitt, he wore the King and Coo.titutien in his cockade. —(Loud laughter.) In the name of , that constitution, he called for . justice, and be hoped that, In a case where there was neither crime nor fault, that a remedy to wrong 'would be given. The lion. Member then moved that the petition be read ; which was done accordingly by the Clerk at the table. ' e lle Hon. Member resumed. Perhaps it might be ne cemary for him to enforce the question by some facts, hut he wished to avoid doing so until he ascertained if it were the determination of his Majesty's Ministers to grant or to deny him a Select Committee. He would be sorry to go into a statement which might be unpleasant to an exalted Personage. He loved the Royal Family as much as any person, and he had wore the King's button for more than thirty years. When that Royal Personage went, some years since, into Rutlandshire, there was no class of people who stowed greater demon stration of loyalty and affection than did the tenantry on his own estates. AU be asked on the present occa sion was, if the lady was an impostor. let her be proved one; bat, let her be exposed to the proof be. fore she be condemned to the sentence. He would be better pleased not to go into a disagreeable statement. He did "not mean to pretend to know more than he bad documents to prove ; but he wished above all, to avoid giving offence to a high quarter. Flectere si Relief; &Tow, &Amnia movebo. He concluded by reeving that the petition be referred to a Special Committee. Mr. HUME rose to second the motion with great plea sure, not from any knowledge of the cue or of the per son, but from the propriety of investigating claims of such a nature. Ministers were called upon to make some inquiry, if it were only to defend the Royal Family from the calumny thrown on them, if the statement of the petitioner was untrue. There was a strong reason to induce his attention, which was, that the signature of Mr. Dunning was proved to be geouine. by the only person now living, who could prove his signature. For that reason, and for the sake of the Royal Family, an is quiry should be made. He therefore seconded the motion. • Mr. Secretary PEEL said the Worthy Baronet and the Hon. Gentleman bad imposed on him an embarrasslog duty. The subject was one of a delicate nature. But the best courses be could adopt, would be to state the whole truth.—(Hear. hear.) He would prove to the satisfaction of the Worthy Baronet himself, that this lady, who claimed to be the daughter of the Duke of Cumberland, brother to the late King, was practising a gross impos!ure, or was herself imposed on by soon body, for purposes which be could not understood. — But the Worthy Baronet bad omitted by far the greater part of his ease, and be would state it for him. There were two brothers of the name of Wilmot, the one a Doctor Wilmot, and the other a Robert IVilmot. This lady, sow claiming to be the daughter of the late Duke of Cumberland, was the daughter of Robert—there were proof, of her birth and of her baptism as such, and she was for many years content to be the daughter of this Robert Wilmot. In the year 1817, however, she discovered that she was not the daughter of Robert Wilmot,—(a laugh)—but of Henry, Duke of Cumber laud, brother to the King, George the Third. Then also she was satisfied to be reported illegitimate, bat she afterwards professed herself to be his legitimate daugh ter. He held in his band a letter or memorial which, at her direction, was written to the Prince Regent in 1818. In that letter she said she was the daughter of the Duke of Cumberland and of a Mrs. Payne, the _ widow of a Captain Payne, and sister of Dr. Wilmot. She stated that the Duke was lawfully married to this Mrs:Payne, and that she herself was the legitimate off spring of that marriage, and was bore in Warwick Castle. Then, by her own account, she was legitimate in the year 1818. In 1819, however, she told another story, and that was, that Dr. Wilmot hod a daughter, who was privately married to the Doke'of Cumberland in'l767. But in 170 the Duke of Cumberland was married to Mrs. Horton—(Loud laughing, caused we suppose, by the strange coincidence of the names of those two ladies, with those now borne by an Hon.• Member). The parties, unwilling to accuse his Royal Highness of bigamy, were content to keep the first marriage secret, but the lady bad documents to prove 'bet the marriage of 1769 was illegal, and relied that the marriage of her own mother was kgal, as it was before the Royal Mar riage Act. But she and all others concerned kept the secret till 1819. Sir GERARD NOEL begged • to interrupt the Right Hon. Gentleman. The Earl of Warwick, while liYing, gave op the papers to the Duke of Kent. Mr. Secretary PEEL.—Wbat he Mara ILO say was, that those pipers were not produced till after the daub of all the parties whose names were connected with them. The story was, that there was a child born in 1772, and that child was this Mrs. Sevres, who claimed to he the daugh ter of the Duke of Cumberland ;'that Mrs. Wilmot, the wife of Dr. Wilmot, was delivered of a still-born child, fur whom she was substituted, and she was accordingly broUght up in his hbuse. But it was unnecessary for him to go into all this ludicrous matter. There were manifold proofs of the fabrication and falsehood of all those documents. If be could prove to the satisfaction of the House the falsehood of two of those documents, he trusted that Hoe. Members would conclude that all the others rested in falsehood also. He would then take the two most material of those documents. He would dis prove, without a shadow of doubt, the reality of the certi ficate which she possessed to be the certificate of the pri vate marriage between her mother and the Doke of Cam bedsit& He would also disprove the slimed will of the late King, under which she claimed 1,50% The wit nesses to that supposed will were Mr. Dennis', Lords Chatham and Warwick. The Right Hon. Geodesists lets trod as utast from the will, is which the Wes THE STATESMAN. 'King " willed to Olivia, the daughter of the Duke of Cumierland, 1,5001. in recompense for the injury done I ,her, in consequence of the necessity of keeping private 'she marriage of the Duke." This will was dated in 1774. It wile impossible that Lord Chatham would be at that time railed on to witness that document. That Noble Lord resigned office in 1768, and never took ofiice after that period. His sentiments were quite contrary to those of his Majesty on the American war, and from the speech be made tor withdrawing our troop s Boston in 1775, it was evident he had not access to his Majesty, for in the very beginning of that speech he set out by saying, that *he had not access to his Majesty, he would deliver in that House (of Lords) the advice which be would wish to communicate to his Majesty respecting the continuance of tistwar. If Lord Chatham ever had access to his Majes ty,'lte would not have signed his name to a paper which paid, " that as the Duke of Cumberland had *bleated liimself to thepunishment of bigamy, ne sacrifice his daughter:" But it was next to impossible that Lord Chatham, whose speech on the American war was so of fensive to the King, would be called on to sign any does went. Theo he wonid come to the certificate made by Doctor Wilmot, and signed by Lord Chatham, stating that the Princess Olivia was the daughter of the Duke of Cumberland, and was brought up as the daughter of his brother Robert Wilmot, and that she was known by a large black spot.—(Loud laughing, with cries of " where, where.") He would tell the House— known by a large liver-coloured spot on, her right rib.—(Continued laughing) He then adverted to the ceitlficate of the marriage of the Duke of Cumberland; on the 4th of March, 1767, to Miss Wilmot, by Doctor Wilmot, her brother. It ran in those words:— I hero. by certify, that his Royal Highness the Duke of Cu*: berland was married according to the rites of the English Church, by myself, &c.—Signed, Brook, and J. Adder." —That certifi - cate professed that the marriage was so lemnized by James Wilmot, the brother of Miss Wilafot. But it appeared by the University books, that Mr. Wil mot was then resident at Trinity College, Cambridge, of which he was a member, and that he left it on the 14th of March, some days subsequent to the date of the certi ficate.—(Hear, bear!) The signature " Brook," was of course meant for the Earl of Warwick, but he had in every document and paper which could be found, al- ways signed himself" Oreville," and never "Brook." His son, the present Earl of Warwick, in a letter, which he (Mr. Peel) held in his band, bad stated, that in all the pa pers he could find, his father, before he succeeded to the ti tle, always signed himself " t?reville," and that the second' title, " grook," was not used till a very late period. The signatures of Lords Chatham and Warwick were clearly disproved, but he still bad to explain the signature of " J. Adder." On inquiries made at Warwick, about Adder, every one there said lie was well known. The name was quite familiar to the people of Warwick. He was stated to be the family physician at the Castle. This made it ne cessary to make further inquiry, and it was found by the books of the College of St. Andrew, that there was a Scotch Gentleman went from that University to Warwick, of the name of " Haddo." In putting his name to these docu ments the H was taken away ; bat to make amends for that, they added an r, and so " Haddo" became " Addor." On farther inquiries at Warwick, it was discovered that there was a medical gentleman of the name of Iladdor, from St. Andrews, who resided in the neighbourhood, and whose name was pronounced by the people there Adder, though always written " Hoddo. '—(Hear, bear.) He mbed the House if it was necessary for him to go further Were not those claims susclently disproved? If the Worthy Baronet gate up those claims, there were others still which be could yet press. He held in his hand a manifesto Issued by Ibis Princess Olivia to the high powers of the kingdom of Poland.—(Load Laughing.) _n that manifesto she said she was descended of Augustus Stanislans.—(Continued laughing.) The lady had two strings to her bow. In this esitetry she said she was the daughter of the Duke of Cara berthed by his Ditchers; To the people of Poland she ad dressed herself as the legitimate descendant of the Monarchs of that country. Bat with this latter claim he had nothing to de, and would not say a word about it. Sir G. NOEL said that he should feel it necessary topes the matter to a Committee. He was not satisfied by the sits. , ,ewer of the Right Hon. (Indianan. If the Right Hoe. GI& 'Haman was convinced of the fallacy of the demising, why ididhe refuse to allow them to go before a Select Committee. hbe was disposed to press the matter to a di 1 11 1 1T i ffthe sense of the House was against him, he v s t e s = not be obstinate. On the Order of the Day for going Into a Committee ea the Irish Tithe Bill being moved, Mr. J. SMITH said that he hoped the Right Hon. Sewer tary for Ireland would give way for a few moments, whilebe sweet' for leave to bring in a Bill, which was of the great est importance both to the Commercial and Agricultural Interests. Mr.GOULBURN consented, on the condition that the Hon. Member would not occupy much time. Mr. J. SMITH then moved for leave to bring in a Bill forthe better protection of Merchants and others. After a few words from Mr. ROBERTSON as to the late period or the Session in which so important a Bill was agi tated, leave was given. ENGLISH CATHOLICS. Lord NUGENT asked the Right Hon. Gentleman if he would permit him to move the second reading of the English Catholic Bill pro forma before he went into Contains on the Irish Tithes. He was aware the Light numerable Gen tleman had the right of precedence t • but he ed the Right lion. Gentleman, fur himself, that be would not go into any discussioc. Mr. GOULBURN said that he should be very happy to give way to the Noble Lord, but before the Hon. Member for Corte Castle left the House, he asked him (Mr. Gold burn) whether be would give way to the Noble Lord. u ib case he did, that Honourable Member would have unsettled to enter Into some discussion on the Bill. He therefore left the House Imposing on him a strict injunction not to givi way; should he concede now, he would put himself under the necessity of speaking against time, which would be ra ther a disagreeable task to undertake voluntarily. IRISH TITHE BILL. The House then went into a Committee on the Irish Tithe Bill. On the clause empowering the Clergy to distrain is all cases before the landlord, being moved, . Sir JOHN STEWART said that this clews, If it piss*, would be the cause •of endless jealodst sod !perpetual best,. Iltytetween the landlords and the clergy. It was too leech to allow the clergyman after entering into a composition; 1. to come before the landlord, or even the Crown, and Wanda for the tithe. This was a right which be had not even by the present system. He objected to the Bill in toto, in hie heart and soul. Hewes convinced, though as great a friend . ' to the Protestant Church as any man in Ireland, that thls Bill would be its utter ruin. Mr. WETHERELL objected as well to the machinery as the principle of the clause. Colonel BARRY said that be wished to put the titter payer and the Clergyman in the same relation to etch other, as the tenant and the landlord; and it was therefore that be was desirous that the Clergyman should be obliged to give fourteen days notice to the tithe-payer before he db. trained. • Mr. DENIS BROWNE objected to the clause. The I clauses being agreed .to, the Bilkwas ordered to be reported on Friday. DISSENTERS. Lord NUGENT moved that the Test Regulation Bill be read a second time ; and at the same time observed that it was not his intention to enter into a discussion upon It, un til some other stage. Sir GEORGE HILL considered this a measure of such importance, that he could not let it go to a second reading without objecting altogether to the principle of it. He warned the gentlemen of this country, after the experience they had since 1708, against adopting a mount* of this kind, which west to confer political power me names Ca th•lics. They oast know that ever since the elestive fran chise was OM to Rama Catholics, there had he.. a con doled seeW of Waltham* and outrage In Ireland, and IMO till" labs *Paid pegaseticate all that ndedistous dor whisk the IWO* Catholics were pawnor!, &s -in • ..-• Mr. BANKES, jun. could not iet*this Bill even go to a second reading, without entering bis protest against it. He would even oppose any measure that bad for its ob ject the granting a further extension of privileges to Ro man Catholics, to whom he felt that no elective franchise whatever ought to have been given. He should, there fore, object to the Bill altogether. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said this was a Bill to relieve all classes of Dissenters from taking the Oath of Supremacy, .and was not peculiarly applicable to Roman Catholics. He did not approve of the Bill, and be should oppose it in a future stage. Mr.PERL said hecould never agree to an unqualified repeal of the Oath of Supremacy, as was proposed by this Bill. He was willing to give the elective franchise gene rally to all, and to remove the Oath of Supremacy, so far as regarded the elective franchise, but he would not al low that to be repealed iä order to qualify Dissenter, to bold offices in the State. _ _ Mr. BANKES, seri. said this Bill might be considered ,as a step to do away the 'feat Acts, which had long been densidered as the bulwark of the British Constitution.— What did the Noble Lord mean by the word franchise? I Was it right to enjoy every privilege which men could receive? Did he mean that the Test and Corporation Acts should be done sway? Did be mean that the oaths required to be taken by persons entering into offices should be repealed ? Did he meals that Dissenters should I take no oath at all? The Irish Act only gave the elective franchise to Roman Catholics; but did the Noble Lord mean to. propose that the highest offices should be open • to all persons professing a religion different from that of the State? It would be most anomalous to admit such persons into any degree of political power, more than they possessed already. He had no objection to let this Bill go to a second reading, because the Noble Lord might be able to explain the nature of the Bill more clearly than it appeared to be at present. But he would object to any further extension of political power to the parries allud ed to in this MIL I Mr. WETHERELL said that when the Bill went into a Committee, he should oppose every clause of it. It had been stated that there was no intention of attacking the Test and Corporation Acts, but that intestion bad not been satisfactorily expressed. The Bill was then read a second time. Lord NUGENT said be should not enter into any ge neral observations on this measure, bat merely notice some points that bad been stated by Hoo. Gentlemen on the other side of the Hogue. His Bill did not at all in terfere with the Act of Queen Anne. There was no in tention here of repealing the tests so far as regarded the Roman Catholics. The Member for Code Castle Lad pot several questions to him respecting the admissioa of Roman Catholics to the e4ective franchise, which that Hon. Gentleman considered a very dangerous thing. Bat did not the Hon. Gentleman know that there were other means of returning Members to Parliament besides the elective franchise? Did he not know that many men Were returned to that House by nomination instead of election? And suppose the Hon. Gentleman should at any time think proper to sell his own borough, for which he had nominated himself a Member of that House, would be think it necessary to oblige the pur chaser to take ao oath against popery?—(Load laughter land bear, hear) if he did not do so, would he not, sc. cording to his own doctrine, be selling the security of his country ? Mr. BANKES replied that beitas Sot obliged to ea: swer a question that carried so mach personality with it as this. Ile would, however, observe that no person who sold property bad any power to pot an oath to the purchaser. But if be were disposed to sell his interest in the Borough alluded to, anloing so convey po litical power to another, he should think be deserted his duty if he placed that power in the hands of any oat who ea ht not to posses* it--(Hear, hear.) The Bill was then ordered to be committed on Monday. DISTILLIMES BILL. The CHANCELLOR of the 'XCHEQUER moved the second reading of the Distillery Bill. Lbrd A. HAMILTON complained that the Commissa ries of Scotland Bill had not bees brought ander discus sion. The Noble Lord moved as an amendment, that the Bill to which he alluded, be read a second time. The LORD ADVOCATE said he was ready to bring on the Bill this night, if the business of the House would permit. Mr. J: P. GRANT supported the Amendment. Mr. KENNEDY expressed himself anxious for the discussion of the Bill. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, it the Amendment had not been moved, the Noble Lord would have been nearer to the discouion of the Bill. The Distilleries Bill was as important to Scotland as any other Bill. Lord A. HAMILTON explained. The Amendment was then negatived. Mr. S. RICE expressed& hope the Bill might not be hur ried through the House. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said a Depu tattoo from the Distillers in Ireland was in London, sod they would have abundant opportunities of expressing their sea timents before the Bill passed. The Bill was read a second time, and committed for W morrow. On the Order of the Day for the second reading of the Cein niesaries of Scotland Bill— Mr. KENNEDY said, he would fie Friday for the discus sion. If the Bill was brought on forthwith, he should move as adjournment. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, h should have no objection if the discussion was brought me early on Friday. Mr. KENNEDY said, he should endeavour to bring it on as early as possible. The LORD ADVOCATE moved the third reading of the Scotch Confirmation Bill. _After • few observations from Mr. J. P. °SANT. Mr. Rassimer, end Lord A. Hann roe, the Bill was read a third one; and passed. The LORD ADVOCATE then moved the third reading of :dos Scotch Commissaries' Bill. lord A. HAMILTON opposed the third reading, in copse *sou of the lateness of the hour. , The House divided — For the third reading, 38—Against it, 21—Majority 33. Lor A. HAMILTON again opposed the Bill, and moved the Adjournment of the House. The motion was not seconded. Mr. KENNEDY moved the Bill be rest this day six months. Mr. GRANT Immediately after moved the House do ad jam. Mr. J. SMITH expressed a hope that the question of adjournment might not be carried, as it would tend to :re lay public business. Mr, HUME wished the Noble Lord to withdraw the motion for the third reading of the Bill. The LORD ADVOCATE thought be bad been met with vexatious opposition to the Bill. Sir G. CLERK said much time had been lost iS de bate quite useless. He thought the Bill might have bees discussed. The Marquess of TITCHPIELD, before the House di vided, complained that the Beer Bill was carried yester day contrary to ao uoderstasdinK entered into by his Majesty's Ministers. It was understood no public bu siness was to come on before the motion respecting the Chief Baron of Ireland. He came down to the House at 4 o ' c lock, and found that the Bill bad been passed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER disclaim ed all intention taking the Noble Lord by surprise. Half past four o'clock had arrived, and there being no public business before the House, he moved the third raiding of the Bill. He was no party to any ouderstaadisg at the subiect. 7 he House then divided — Fur the adjournment, 9 Against it, 44; 1111 ,1 0 1 14 1, 3$ - _ .. Mr. HUME still objected to :he third reading, and proposed to adjourn the discussion to this day. he LORD ADVOCATE, unwilling to put the Howe to inconvenience, was willing to withdraw his Motion for the Order of the I;ay.
