This person tieing called in, stated, that a witness of the name of William Charles, who had been sent down with the Speaker's warrant to serve upon Sir William Manners, of linektninster, near Grantham, to attend as a witness h, fury the Committee, found the dour shot against him, and that hr conic, not obtain admittance. The withess had also warrants to serve upon upon Mr. Hugh Manners, the son, and two other servants, who were also denied to him, though he declared what his purpose was. When he had witk drawn, Sir K. lIEGON moved, that the said Sir William Manners, being guilty of a ctostempt of the !loom s should be eon:us:tied to the custody of the Serjean4 at Arms. Mr. TICNNT,i(rN proposed an amendment, that ho should be ordered to attend the liar of the Mouse on Monday next. Dr. Putt.uxons: and Mr. W. WrNst looked upon the conduct of Sir W. Manners as a high contempt of the authority of Parliament, and thought an example should be made of hiui.—(llear After some words from Mr. F. PALIIE t in its sup- port, the motion tilts agreed to without a division. Sir K. IlanoN then moved, that Richard Armstrong Jervis, &servant of Sir W. Manners, should also be com mitted, for resisting the service of the Speaker's warrant. Lord NUGENT thought that smite distinction should be made between the cases of the master and servant, for the latter was manifestly aetiog under the orders of the forme.. Dr. PHILLIIIORE and Sir J. 31.icittnvoitn, hoviever, thought this was so Migrant and wilful a e.dtteuipt of ' the authority of the lionse, that all the parties to it should be visited with severe pinishinent. ! ,1 The question was then put upon the mot:on, an dl carried. .

Sir Itortuar !leans next muted, that William Atter, another servant, for the like contempt, should be corn witted to the custody of the Serjeunt. , Mr. Taxsvaos suggested, that as there was no evi ilerve of this person having been seen by the wituesa I 'limies t his guilt was hut trivial.

The !louse would re collect that, upon the demise of her late Majesty, an ex proditure to the gross amount of Is9,oo l ti. had been suppresses,. A sum of INOCOL, however, as a provision for her Majesty's servants, granted by Parliament, re duced the amount of that saving to 162,411111/. The Oa List was, at that 'period, under the discretion of the House. Against the saving, bowev..r. there was a set-off of 24.001 t/. which was to he proposed a o a pe „,•;. shin for the servants of hit late Majesty. The liesolii 'ions which he (Lord U.) hail now to sothinit to the Muse related to four classes of indt% hitt its; he pro posed that a sum of 9,100/. should he granted to those of the first class—consisting of servants who had been in the 'mice of his late Majesty at rhr time of his de. wise. The next was a sum .1,103/. for the second class, consisting of those servants who had belonged to the Windsor Esta6lishinent ; but who, lieu ing been re moved from their sitnations by the relmtion of that es tablishment about a year ago, were since provided for out of - the Privy Purse of his late Maje-ty. These two sums together amounted toJ3 or 1.1,0011/. Of the next two sums, amounting together to about Plow., a sum of 1 4 ,01101. was intended for a class of servants irlso had been placed upon the Privy Purse at the perFonal favour of his late Majesty before his illness, anal it consisted, for the most part, of old domestics, whosii.character was judged by his Majesty to be worthy of his liberal atten tion. The neat sum was a small slim to he granted to those servants who, without any of the claims of the in dividuals composing the other classes, for whom allow , slices were to he provided, had still some claim nn the lilwralitv of the Mose. It was proposed, therefore, to grant diem a snot espial to their an n eal salary respec tively. The amount of the provision then for the two latter classes was between J and 10,6000., iihirh, being adilea to that for the two former ones, moth& together a sum of •24,0110/.—ife then moved, that a nom not ex ceeding 1111,503/. be granted to his 3lajesty, to defray the expenses of providing for a certain class of his late Majestv's•eervants. Mr. ILI:CUSS did not object to the irrinciple on which the vote was founded; but be was of opinion, that the extent of the provision was excessive in the resent cir cumstances of the country. He wished that the propo sitions should be postponed for farther consideration, and subjected to the scrutiny of a Committee.—(Hear!) Mr. Ikon contended that the precedent of the case of her Majesty's servants, which the ?iohle Lord had said guided Ministers iu the arrangements on the present occasion, had been materially departed front, and that in the present ease, it was proposed to provide for seve ral persons who bad served but one, two, or three years.

The f•IIANCELLOK of the Exalts:nue' said, that here linen• it hail been the practice for the new Sovereign to take the servants of the late King into his employment on the demise of the Cron n, but his present Majesty having bail lois establishment formed before he asytnnte:t the Throne, conld not, neon that occasion, hare male an o.lllitillell to it by including the servants of his Royal rather.
