ow — Haldeman believe that his Majestr' , i t s i st gri were capable of throwing phsteeles in the 1 , 3 , o f her 31ajesty's defence ? So far was his Ma. Hover,onent from using its power to obstruct ator/n es tot' justice, that he had made a tender to o,Hohourshle and Learned Haldeman who was to o dnct her Siajcsty's defence, to esert el, his influence erig d for the purl oar of giving every facility to the con e o f justice. m e • CAR LET r said, that the Noble Lord had mis represeuted the arguments of his Hon.' and Learned Friend. His Han. end l.earned Friend had not pro- , !A ril these clauses fur the purpose of insinuating any I (bunnies against his blajesty's Ministers ontear y, he had distinctly stated that his object was t „ re pel . such calamities. He (Mr. S.) could not be. left that the Noble Lord would make any Improper se o f the powers conferred by this Bill ; yet it was ettremelv possible that the Noble Lord might be sus and he would tell the Noble Lord why. lie nut believe that the country at large entertained that opinion of the perfect integrity and freedom from 11 motive which the Noble Loai could not but enter of himself. With respect to the constitutioaal grounds of this measure, he thou ! :, . ht no man could do eredit to himself or good to the country by looking far back fot precedents. He would look only for authori ties to the tiara' the Revolution, and to subsequent pit i o i t , and lee was prepared to contend that the Croce never bat *prerogative which enabled it in time of peace tN &pose of the persons and liberties of Aliens is the sweet in which Government was em• powered to do by the provisions of this Bill. Mr. W. POLL said, he should not trouble the House at any length upon the merits of this question, but he could not forbear making some observations upon what had fades from the Hon. and Learned lientleman who bad just sat down. That Learned Gentleman had as- , ser ted, is round terms, that the conduct to which his Noble Friend bad alluded,was a proof of the suspicions which the public.entertained of his Majesty's Ministers. He pmumed that the Hon. and Learned Haldeman alluded to the outrageous violence which had been ex hibited at Dover towards certain individuals who landed there, because it was supposed that they came fur the purpose of giving evidence on the approaching important State proceeding. Did the Hon. and Learned Gentleman call that act the expression of public opi- , D ho t i ft was the art of a rabble. He readily al lowed that the rabble were hostile to the present Ad- ministration. He hoped they always would be so. It was a proof that the present Administration. had' acted with energy, and had successfully supportesitbr. dignity of the Crown, and the interests of the moutstry. The Hos. and Learned Gentleman had, night after eight, called his Majesty's Ministers a weak, vacillat iaf, disjointed, wretched Administration, incapable efcoodecting the affairs of the country, enjoying no (widener any where.—(Mr. Scarlett appeared to deny baring used those terms.)—The Hon. and Learned aratleman had a short memory. Did he say that he had not meant to describe Ministers as a wretched, *sable, vacillating set of men ? He should be baggy to hear the Hon. and Learned Geadeases dis avow it. Mr. Scummy said, be had no lateadou ed disavow- lugs Mr. W. Pets observed, that he had a right then to collider the Hes. nod Learned Gentleman as avowing it- SCABLITT allowed that his meaning had the tendency *apposed by the Right Hon. Gentleman, but trusted that be was incapable of using some of the words imputed to him. He bad called the Right Hon. Gentleman's colleagues weak, vacillating, and ines capable of administering the affairs of the country in the present crisis. Their acts and measures fully justified his baring so characterised them, and he would so characterise them still.—(Hear, bear !)—He said this without intending penoaal disrespect to any of the individuals of whom the Administration was was composed ; but as a Member of Parliament, he was entitled boldly to declare his opinion of their conduct as a body.—(Hear, hear!) Mr. W. PoLn was proceeding to make some further remarks on what bad fallen from the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, when The Seeskalt interfered, and reminded the Right Hon. Gentleman of the great inconvenience that might arise, were the rules of the House to permit any Hon. *ember to refer to particular expmstons used in firmer debates. W. Pot.' replied, that he should always bow le the Chair with that respect which was due to it when it was filled as it was at the present moment. Without, however, referring to former debates, he wadi advert to what the Honourable and Learned Gentleman had pretty boldly stated in the present die cession. According to the Honourable and Learned Gentleman, his Majesty's present Government were charged with wanting the confidence of the House and of the country. Who were they who so charged them ? He had long wished for an opportunity of teaching on these things. He would say nothing of the conduct of the Gentlemen opposite during the late 'Sr. He would say nothing of their prediction, that net ems of our soldiers would land in the Peninsula who 'mild not remain there as a primmer. He would say nothing of their tinvoried anticipations of the triumph of Bonaparte. The public plainly saw that these men of gesias—theseanituadverters upon the conduct of others,. with all their talents and all their confidence, were eter nally in the wrong, as he trusted to God they always be-••(A loud laugh.)—and that when they came to tbe paint they were wholly ineffective and feeble. He woe sorry to see that what he had said bad agi tated the Hoa. and Learned Gentleman.- , --He truly aid conscientiously declared, that the only question for the House to determine simply was, if, by adopting the proposed clause, they would throw a slur on his if gestY's Government. which had not been cut upon them by any former House of Cosunioas ? Hr. Scau.arr, in explanation, said, that what he bad observed was, that a great' many persons out of "ta might entertain suspicions of the intentions of Government, which certainly were not entertained by WNW. He no more considered the sentiments of Wit perms to express the public opinion, than he 1 " 11114161 11GUBit mos of that House to express the pelt 1t 0 11 10 Re 14 V. Ps said, he understood the Hon. and 14.11411 in t= to my, that what passed at Dower Nu•• of public opinion. THE ST4 Mr. A sanction me declared, that if an opinion were ► to be formed of the talents, judgment, and discretion of the Administration from the speech of the Right lloti. Gentleman, those who opposed the Administra tion could not wish that question should he put on a better issue. It appeared to him that his Hon. and Learned Friend's proposition deserved the nsost serious considerat . . That House might know that the power entrusted by the Bill to Government would not be abused ; but how could that knowledge be conveyed to foreigners ? On the recent landing of some foreign ers the people of the place where they landed, with a feeling which he trusted was only local, took a course with respect to those persons that was in defiance of all law. Low was it possible that those persons' could find out that there were powers in the hands of the Government which might justify them in discharg ing all apprehension of further outrage ? If ever there was a circumstance which rendered necessary some additional legislative protection for Aliens, it was the occurrence to which he alluded—an occurrence which he was persuaded uo individual in that House or iu the country, of a right way of thinking, could view otherwise than with detestation and horror. Of that occurrence no man with feelings of en Englishman bat must wish that all trace could be blotted out. While he was speaking on this subject, he begged leave to observe, that it was a pity that such persons es those of whom he had been speaking were left ex posed to popular indignation ; and that he conceived a letter a, rangement ought to be made with respect to them, than to allow them to be driving about the streets at midnight, seeking a place of shelter. (Hear, hear!) 1 Mr. R. Msastm delared, that the Noble Lord mast' have established himself in the good opinion of the House and the country by his declaration on a recent evening, that Government would use every means in their power to bring forward, from every part of the globe, whatever persons her Majesty might think pee- 1 net to summon for her defence. Government mishit forfeit the opinion of the House and of the empire, if they did not do what they had thus solemnly pledged themselves to perform; and he could by no means, therefore, put an inoperative clause, like that per posed by the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, in comp, Whin with such a pledge. Sir J. M•CIIINTOSIS said, that he would not attempt to follow the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite through the various points of his speech—a speech distinguished by so much moderation, so strict an adherence to order, so complete in absence of unnecessary digression, so thorough a self-command, so abundant a portion of temper and discretion.—(Hear!) —As to the character of the present Adsninistranon which had been given by his Hon. and Learned Friend, of this be (Sir J. Meek ' intosh) waseertain, that if any man out of that House were asked that character, lie u otild reply, that it was 1 a weak, vacillating, and disjointed Administration. What else could be said of an Administration that ' adopted an accusation against a high and distinguished `individual one moment and disc's:toed it the next—that one day evinced a spirit of decided and unalterable hos ' tility to that individual, and on the next willingly laid the majesty of Parliament at her feet, in the bops. by . . . «methanol'', of effeetiog a tromp 'se.—(H 111111 r !) —What else could be mid of as Adudnist ear ttri as sembled the when% isms of the House of .', ..4.., tv sanction a preceeding eoprecolented and d proceeding which was as great an infraction it ... viti. ciplee as it was a degradation of its dignity—a proceed tag which exposed R to the risk of a greater *strap thati It bad been mooed to during the six annersee which hid elapsed since he institution ?—{Hear, hear I) . —Under those circumstances there was no man, in the capital at least, who could describe his Majesty's present Government in other terms than those to which be had , alluded, without subjecting himself to int.* Mel hearty laughter ; and he could assure the NAM Lord‘ I that such was the bellow out of doors, no lees df who sincerely supported the general measesseelhim ihe Z and his colleagues, than of those who were their deter mined op p onents. The Noble Lord sad the Right Hon. ' 1 Gentleman had altogether passed unnoticed the main ' argument which he (Sir J. Mackintosh) bad urged It I favour of the proposed clause, namely, the necessity of removing from the aliens, who were summoned as wit nemes on the approaching solemn proceeding, all ap prehension that the powers vested by the Bill in his Ma jesty's tioveruniest would be exercised to their nicotine Dicey or disadvantage. The Noble Lord had charged him with not having alluded to the late conduct of the mob at Dover—conduct which, unquestionably, wasmost infamous and disgraceful. But that conduct was nn-1 I nishable by the law as it stood. It was punishable by, preferring a Bill before a Grand Jury The Attorney.' I 1 General had sairicieat means of prosecuting the peeps., trators of that outrage. The interposition of the Legl slaters was wholly sneecessarn._ If he (Sir J. M.) wets I to meddle with the ordinary adedaistration of the law in that ease, he might be justly aneetasd of enwileis. If nue mischievous interference. /tad */ whom ilolll he 111“1010 theless been called upon to interfere ? By thane who. I* 1 the last Session, prevented Parliament from legeiriee into the most serious and important translations, on the ' ground that it was inexpedient to interfere with the or ' dinary course of the law,—(Hear, hear!)—He denied that the clauses which be proposed involved any reflec tion or insult towards Government. Was there a single prerogative in the whole of our Vosatitseiele against which our ancestors bad not provided materities ? It was • false pride which, instead of taking that wise course, blustered and talked big of pledges to the public, and of insults sustained by the adoption Si " calculated to prevent the *raiment., of abose: " 4Z: only sure way in Witch a Oevetnnient could show that it was determined not to Outwits power was, to submit to have that power restrained by the law. All other policy—all intimation of apprehended insult from the 1 moieties of power, was hypocrisy when it proceeded , from tyrants, and weakness when it came from those who entertained no bad intentions.—(Hear, hear!) Mr. CANNISG wished to make a few observation IS what had fallen front his Hon. and Learned Primed.* , he were sot precluded from doing so by the well I which his Honourable and Learned Friend bed jute made bans considered in she mime of a reply. As his Honourable and Learned Friend's propoeyon was in the I shape of an amendment, and not of an omega% modes. ' It to him (Mr. Canning) that what his Hos: Fneed had Just mild could not be deemed' a reply. A short convereatims ensiled Wawa the Stiteeneai Sir J. Ksentwomin and Mr. Leaman*, on the point of order. &venially I Mt: Geneses proceeded, stating it to be his intention I to limit his remarks within a very small compass. To the segmental that all power was by oar Constitution at tended with securities whist its abut, the mew was. that against ordinary abases may gened ought to be established, bet that 'Weber , w hks i lh fo pr o po i ed a m ", cooMmplesed was of so &bitable a mime that so Le gislature in a civilised mammy qught for 4 Emsesso• auticipatt its =mike. but she* Ipok n' ' s ame poi nt s is slat in which Ile sfe =it had islarded parricide. lt - thee dowse wet, and if, with other matters, the suspicion Ishii6 .. existed out of elemrs a ,oy was to be created by the sp.*. within those wells, West to he made mater of hiefory, what defesee amid' The present Ministers have against the charge, that t were se notoriously unjust, that Parliament felted see r to,pdd a clause to the Alien Art to pre t them from sending out of the countrythe %Mendes which the Queen might Sod it ne cessary to call in het defence ? He had hoped that the period having arrived; when the painful subject which had so long agitated the politic mind was in a coarse of, being settled judicially, that thatlikmuie would not, on any occasion, he dragged into any further notice of it, I until it should; come ref ularly before them. He should therefore confine himself to oat single remark is his Hon. and Learned Friend's speech. His Honourable and Learned Friend t ought it matter of blame that his Majesty's Ministers, Ting found it necessary (although i with great relectan to bring the matter in question Ostler the considerati of Parliament, had, nevertheless, 1 *bat he was pleased to call the weakness and the incoa sistencv to persevere to the last in enileavoaring to avert what t h ey themselves. what Parliament, and what the country considered to be a great national calamity. To himself, lie could assure his Honourable and Learned friend, that he todk no blame for his share of the trot* motion. Whatever might have been the effect of that attempt' at conciliation, no man eould say that it had Olt been made with earnestness. If the proceeding Ooold he charged with boy error is that respect, it was error of excess. Would to Don that excess had been tenfold, so that the reek bad been more fortunate! But is that was" past praying for," he bad the satisfaction to know that, whatever might be the result of the me lancholy transaction, his colleagues and himself would feel a consolation which they would not exchange for any earthly advantage I that the last hope and chance of avoiding the menaced evil had been most sincerely tried. Hear, hear, hear!) Sir Jammi itlactierosu then moved the first and se cond Resolations, which were put and negatived with out a division. Sir J. blacetscrose, in moving the third Resolution, begged to make one or two observations. The . Right Hon. Measlier, is an orderly digression, had attempted to rebut the charges of vacillation and inconsistency made against his Majesty's Ministers; he, however, at the same time admitted that they did deviate a little from the line of conduct originally proposed on the question of the Address to her Majesty. I\ ow what was this deviation but inconsistency ? Her Majesty was threatened with the severest proceedings on her arrival, and in three days after the House of Commons was prostrate at her feet. There had been various Addresses of Condolence and Congratulation to Princes at different periods, hut never anti! June. 1820. was Parliament known to bete presented an Address of .%olvice to a Sub ject. Theofl were the grounds by which his rote was actuated, and upon these grounds he founded his censure of the conduct of Ministers, whose duty it was to pro tect the dirtily of Parliament. The Right Hun. Mem ber opposite argued that the Constitution provided against ell ordinary abuses of power, but that there were some crimes of so atrocious a newt, that the law did not provide against, but it never contemplated their commission. Ho (Mr. Canning) thought Parliament had no right to suppose, that it would be unraudid of them to imagine an Administration capable of such acts as those against which his (Sir J. M.'s) Resolutions went to provide. Ho would repeat that it was against arts of the most monstrous nature that the Constitution most strew 1 melded. The Right Hon. Member had urged, tha nstraction were no: moved, his Majesty's Mini have an opportunity of vindicating them eel h abstaining from the exercise of the power mit. New brdenied that this would be the ewe. The evil of width he complained was not theo ✓etical. it was certain. Those foreigners came into this eountry with an impression that Ministers had the power of removing them. They saw such a power daily exercised in their own countries, and naturally imagined that it *wild be similarly exercised here. This would product a bias which would act In a hundred ways with out any possibility of detecting it. On ibis ground it was that he felt it necessary to press the Resolution. The third Resolution was then pat. It was, " That this Bill should not operate against any persons who have, or may come into this country to give evidence either for or against the Bill of Pains and Penalties now pending against the Queen." Mr. CANNING said, that if his Majesty's Ministers were allowed liberty to act, they would have an opportunity of quelling suspicion, but if their hands were tied np, as they would be by the proposed clause, then they world have no opportunity of doing away with any insinua tions thrown out against them. There was another point in the Hon. and Learned Member's speech, to which he wished to advert. The Hon. and Learned Member (Sir J. Id.) seemed to insinuate that be (Mr. C.) had admitted that the conduct of Ministers had been inconsistent. Let it, however. he recollected, that the motiud did not originate with Ministers. They acted in the same spirit all through this difficult business. They bad forborne to act upon the information in their pos session, until pressed to do so by the necessity of the case, and even then they consented to a proposal made to them by the very best authorit in order, if possible. to avert the necessity of this pain ful ' inquiry; and would to Ood that that proposal had bees attended with the de sired success. He was sure that it would have been much more conducive to the peace and tranquillity of the coun try than the measures now unhappily forced upon them. Mr. So:Ammar, in explanation, hoped that no expres sion which had fallen from him is the course of his could lead to the "opposition that be was seephse In speech w.ctatioas of the dissolution of she present Administration. H. was of opinion that the present Administration would sot dissolve until they had ditsolvadtboconatry,—(Heir, Mar!) —and that they would Ind persons to support them up to the rgeWhen the country was dissolved, he had so doubt. lil l ajhoy't Ministers had been characterised as weak. Whet other epithet could be applied to them? Alen het Majesty arrived, they came dope and said, that the neces sity of proceeding was imposed upon them. Now there was no man who would go into society and expose himself to the ridicule which such as smarties would expose him to.

After iiiii4 the Resolution was put and negatived without it slisdipipn. The Muse Then resolved itself into a IneAttee tbe Bill ; alter which the Report was brought u to be received to-morrow. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR if the Et i- QUER, the Union Duties Bill was read a third time and 1.5... ed. BARRACK AGRERMENT.—..The report of the Committee of Supply was brought up, and on the question being being put, Mr. CALCHAPT rose and Bei& this report on the Barrack Agreement, he found, upon consideration, to be neither more nor less than a measure for building a bar rack ht the Regent's-park for the Life Guards ; to the build ing of such a barrack he hod no objection. but he objected to the terms upon which it was to be built, which were, for an annuity for Si years of 6,4001. Now, the total value of this was at least 80,t 10/.. and this sum motto belaid out for the accommodation of only 437 men. In Glasgow • barrack • was built of a lamer description for 16,0001. In Leeds another barrack wee in progress for a larger number of men, by 100. for 20,230 f. It/was assoredly better to bor row the money necessary to build the barrack. than to build It on such terms as these. He hoped the Right Hon. Geode -1 mon had some explanation to give upon tbispolot. He had , . to add, that he was informed that this barrack, questionable 1 as these terms were, was already begun, without going eren ' Into the forms of consulting the House. It was true. that ' the vote of 6,4001. had been already agreed to; but be or ' : derstood that sum to be fur lodging-money for the Lite ! i Guards. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHIQUIR admitted that this was a matter subject to the controul of Parliament. He stated that this regiment had net been heretofore provi ded for. except in lodeings. sad the expense of these in time of war amounted to 11,000/. a-year. Hint the peace reduc tions were made, which lowered that expense to 5,4001. a year. Now, the annuity proposed to be given in the present case did not exceed that sets—it *toad only be for Si yeas, sad, after that time, the country would have the barracks in perpetuity for nothing. lie thought this a more advisable plan than to go on from year to year. paying 6,400 for lode fag money, without any rrospeet of a eessation. With re gard to the calculation of the Hon. Gentleman, it should be recollected, that at a former period an intention was enter tained of building a barrack for this regiment in the Regent's Park, nod the estimates were then mad* at 1110,0001. Now the real value of theannuity proposed did not exceed 70,000/. and he did not think that the building could be obtained on better terms. The person who contracted for this berm* was a very respectable builder; it was time indeed that the contract was advertised—Meer, hear!-but still it seemed to him reasonable. It should also be observed, that the whole of the capital would be laid out before the 'tenuity would commence, for it would not take place until after the expiration of two years. The solo now Toted was 'Wetly for lodging money. Sir J. Nr VONT. when this proposition was origin ally brought forwent thought It a very extraordinary one. The Right Hon. Gentleman assumed, In the first place, that the House would hereafter agree to the proposition for build ing these barracks. Now surely it was too tench at this mo ment to assume, that in two years hence the House would do My seek thing.—(Hear, bear l)—And if the House should. mg agree, then would so much money have been uselessly , spent. I The CLIAN ELLOR of the EXCHISQUER explained. Mr. Wis.i.tAns said, lie would oppose this grant al ' together. as no case of necessity seas mode for It. There were barracks near Croydon, which would suflielentiy ac commodate the troops in question. Mr. ELLtcs objected also to the grant, for he looked upon this proposition only as a part of a system of bunch building, which was already spread too widely, and which be strongly reprobated. Lord PALstearrort defended the grant. Every one would be persuaded that the improvements of the town would be facilitated by removing the barracks, which at pre sent remained In the most populous parts of it, and the dia cild of the troops improved by separating them from the people. Mr. lionnox saw no reason why, if we were hitherto paying MOW. a year for temporary barracks. it should in fu ture be paid for permanent ones. Could not barracks be bad cheaper. be asked? The House bad already voted 86.0001. for ttisrbarraeh service of the year, sod not • word was said about the grant which was now asked. For the mune &aeon that the Noble Lord thought the measure ought i to ha adopted, he was disposed to take an exception to it— namely, because the soldiers were to be kept distilled trout the chiles'. This was not the policy of our ancestors. Lord lit VNING spoke in favour of the plan. Mr. W. SMITH opposed it. After a carnation bet..veen Sir Wu.
