The Earl of DARNLEY, aftermaking some introduc tory obseavations, which we could not distinctly bear, expressed his satisfaction to find that a plan of retrench ment and economy, with regard to the expenses in the King's D o ck -yard and the building of ships, bad been adopted, and that these expenses were much curtailed, while our naval force was increased iby an addition of 3,000 men. He wished at the same time to impress on their Lordships and his Majesty's Government that in this great naval country, the first object should be at all sloes to add to, instead of diminishing its naval force; and lie assured the House that had a larger addition than 3,1100 seamen been proposed, he should have most readily voted for such an- inc eeeee . He could not help observing on this occasion, that the late negociatlons carried on by our Minister at Verona ought to have been backed by an increased naval preparation, that should.have convinced the great Powers of Europe that we bad in readiness the memos of enforcing our demands, if necessary to do so. Had this been done, be was sure we should not be in our present state of uncertainty and embarrassixent, with regard to the part we might hereafter be obliged to take in the war. It was his opinion that, during those.nego- elation', we ought to have had a squadron of observation out at sea. By such a proceeding peace might have been more securely preserved in the first instance; whereas an appearance of want of preparation might show that we entertained fears of going to war, and provoke other posers to act in such a way as eventually to force us into war. He hoped and trusted that the country would not be involved in war ; but be did not think that the present course pursued byGoverament was.the best vans of pre serving peace. —y nee the Ibtd Put. at Allhallows, Barking.
