If, then, n • ques tion should remain hut with respect to the possibility of abuse, inasmuch as there were no States which were g u ano of Reform, when the Pension List taw, left t entirely to the Crown, without any superintending foamed. To this he should give the best possible mower, naniely, that in future all disbursements fr these funds, and the purposes to which they were ap ferd, should every year be submitted to Parliament, Why a distinct motion, but as a matter of course. It appeared to him very strange that the lion. Gent., if be wished these funds to he at all continued, had sot explained how they were to be administered, un less by the Crown? It was certainly competent to Parliament to see that they were properly applied ; hut so it was to Parliament to watch user any other of the prerogatives of the Crown. Ile now came to consider the details of those fends, from which it would appear how little had been expended hut for the public service. In the course of the late reign the fends had increased to 9,700,0001. and a sum of 6,700,0001. was paid to the captors of ships, out of the Droits of the Admiralty, leaving a fund of 4,000, 1 '001. of which sum 2,700,0001. had been paid in aid of the 41 per Cents., and the remaining suns, after haying defrayed the charges of the Royal Physicians, the ex penses of entertaining Foreign Ambassadors, and other incidental demands, would become matter of new ar rangement in future. He wished it to he distinctly un derstood, that it was intended, in the course of every Session, to lay before the House an account of the sums issued from these funds, as well as a distinct statement of their application. He saw no reason what ever that could induce the House to depart from that course, with regard to them, which was sanctioned by the authority of the Constitution. The Hon. tient., while he proposed a change, had not offered any just argument in support of it ; and, according to his state ment, it was rather to be a;aunted necessary from in ference than practice. The Hon.lientlernan said, that if a pension was to be granted to a Nelson, a St. Yin cell, or a Wellington, there could be no difficulty about it, as all must acknowledge it was well deserved . ; but the case was quite different with regard to political services; where, in his opinion, Parliamentary inter ference was necessary before any pension was awarded. Now, it was for this very reason that be (Mr. Canning) !bought the existing practice the most consonant with the principles of the Constitution. He desired rather to see these funds under the care of a protecting Monarchy, than at the disposal of a democratic as sembly, who should dole out their largesse, as the spirit of faction or the influence of a successful canvass dictated. Faction must necessarily sway the minds of such an assembly, and there had been of late abundant experience of what might he done by a successful can vass.—(A laugh.)—lf, on the one hand, the Crown was the best judge of the application of the sums to be laid out, so, on the other, it was the best trustee of the fund. that remained. It must be perfectly known to the Hon. tientleman himself, that the change he proposed was at variance with the best principles of our Constitution, though, if he could but succeed in getting the Crown to abandon those funds, be would not hesitate, fur the sake of a rhetorical flourish, to witness all the mis chief which would be consequent upon such a measure. But if no change of this nature was called for by ne cessity, and If, after the experience of more than sixty years, the Hon. Gentleman could prove only one in stance of abuse, the House would find that the sanction of practice and experience was decidedly against any alteration. As to the general argument that those funds, being in the hands of the Crown, offered a temptation to go to war ; he thought it had no foun dation whatever. He entreated the Hon. Gentleman to give not the least credit to the views or intentions of the Administration, but to look at them, even as he did, on the Minister of Charles II.; let them do this, bat let them, at the same time, take a view of hu man nature, add see if it was possible, that any set of Ministers would place a twentieth part of the Droits of the Admiralty as a set-off against an unjus' War. commenced only in disgraceful motives? It could nut, be was convinced, be denied, that the prac tice, which had hitherto been followed, had in it something salutary. In the period, daring which 9,000,0001. of droits had accumulated, if they once provoked war, they more than three or fear times THE STATESMAN. -avesi us from hoed:tire. As an iestanre of this feet, it was sit:beheld to mention ti.e ease of the Swedish convoy, where ri ssitution being made out of the funds in queritioa, tit the parties who felt aggrieved, war was thereby perverted. If the funds had been, at the time, under Parliamentary direction, the chances against any pacific adjustioent w.ltld have been multiplied tenfold, from the number of obstacles which must have been eaeountered. 'I his cunittry had invariably been actuated by motives of high and ro mantic honour, and she always `might rather to avoid war, than rush into it, without a sufficient canse. It was right, then, till all claims tiro these funds were fairly ailjudirate.l, that they 'holel be kept altoge ther out of the itifi: iai knowledge of Parliament. lie believed, in hi- , conscience, that they afferled ,he very best means of avoiding war. Rot if they were placed in the hands of Parliament the con-equence would he otherwise. Either war was just or unjust; and if just, tile national honour was committed, and ought, VOW sequently, to be vindicated, while the proposed change would e•nrl ts introduce various impediments. 1 here was no proof of practical alist:.11,11• of any defects in the ronstitutinn, or that those on his side of the House were called upon to do re than they themselves voluntarily offered. bring willing conseientiously to let in the full daylight upon these funds from the first ureletes of their forntatioo. I t was much better that the Crown should administer as the trustee of the pe.iplc, in thin teepee, as in every other where the ri :his of the people were concerned. The only other temptation which could induce the Hon. lent. to wish fur a change was, the tleeire of doing away what he termed the last remnant of the feudal Government. He would have our system of Government made as neat and clean as that of the Crated States, and would hair the fun:lions of our Sovereign quite as unintelligible as those of the America,. President. Fair himself lie did nut wish to do away any trace of what was the off spring of the olden time. It was very easy to make • stipenilian King, and there was only oue step more ne cessary, to place the ai&stersunder the direct controul of the House, who might thus remove them at pleasure, as they were paid by them. The Right lion. Gentle man, aft. r saline further observatiuns to the saute effect, clot:laded by moving the Maier of the Day fur bring iu up the Report. Before the question was put, Mr. Bnovott•st and Mr. Casisitsto tinitu illy explained. Sir JAMES 11ACIsINTi1S11 now rose to address the House. lie bee in by stating, that upon any oilier oc casion than the present he should have avoided offering himself to their notice, dreading, as lie did, to come in contact with the forcible and convincing speech of his lion. Friend, which nos alike worthy of the stateaman a n d the lao v. r, ie hile lie was no less apprehensive of ruconuterin t!,t• elwrienee and ingenuity of his Right Frietot. oil the oilier side. The Hon. and Learned Member then proceeded to follow in detail the different arguments %Ouch hail beef, advancer) against the motion, contenditig that the'' , were not supported by authority, and that the Right Host. Gentleman who spoke last hid resorted rv , ly to ingenious fallacies. His Right lion. Friend iwarcily touched upon the real question, which was, indeed, a very simple one. namely, whether these funds were really a ilinvenient source el revenue to the Crowe. The question was not whether that revenue should he of a greater or less anionnt.—(clear, hear !)-- But whether such a source of revenue was honourable to the Crowns anil whether less ineonystiirnr, ww arise frern I-maiming than from relinquishing it. Nil doubt a great part of the (limits was voluntarily granted by Parliament, and a considerable part of them was air plied in rompensation of meritorious but irregular cap. tors. It was admitted that these rewards were well be 'owed, hut a question naturally suggested itself, was there no other moile of effecting the same end? hid no suspicion attach itself to the manner in which these com pensations had been heretofore ntaile ? Was it not to be supposed that they were often given rather through private influence than upon the general ground of public service ?—filear, hear .)—The present state of things was far f bring agreeable in every quarter. He retold speak at least for one gallant body of Englishmen, the officers of the navy—that they would prefer even a diminished cumpensation, if it were given in another manner than a large one, if they had still to seek it through the channel of private solicitation.—(Hear, hear !)—He would not say that many who received these rewards had not earned them ; bat were there not also many will) hail equal claims, hut who were passed by ? (Hear, ).ear!) - It could not he denied, that so lung as the compensations continued to come through this chan nel, they were liable to abuse. He would ask this ques tion, whether it could he seriously supposed that the fonds which accrued from the capture of the Spanish frigates were ranked among the jewels of the Crown : Whether it n es for the honour of the Crown, for the dig nity of the Royal Family, to derive a revenue even for the purposes of bounty from such a source? It was for the /louse to judge whether such a revenue was not a disgrace to the Koval Family, and whether it was nut better for that family to derive all its income from the affections of the people, than front an impure source, i which, in the opnion of able historical writers. has in its eaterior, at least, the appearance of being collected by scents little better than pirates. It bad been often said th it the Crown ought to have the means of bestow ing private bounty. But that was nut the question here ; the irestion was, as to the nature and character of the Nonce from which this revenue was derived. Fur the first thirty years of the last rein the droits of the Ad miralty were, comparatively, inconsiderable. During twenty years of the same reign, in the time of war, they produced nine million.. Now here was no adaptation of the resourees to the object. The resource was flue tnating while the object remained the same. Would it not be better, therefore, that a permanent rouepenaatinn should be made, applicable to all cases? Would it not be more honourable for the Sovereign to derive the means of gratifying his liberality, or his affections, from the generosity Of his people, than from the spoils of his enemies, and they defenceless enemies ? He would pee pose, that such funds as might be deemed sufficient fix the reward of meritorious services should remain pernsee neutly applicable to that object. For these no cetnyint. sationought to be required, nor would lie give a oem pensation from any other funds than those which were applied to the purposes of private bounty, over which the Crown exercised a private ownership. These, with a very little addition, would be found adequate to supply the means of bounty liberally. In making this Moat* the greatest constitutional advantages would be obtahas ed, which the House would feel, if it were not dead tla, all sense of its own privileges. It would remove the painful necessity of exhibiting the Crown as derivinee emoluments from the harshest exercise of the rights of war. Undoubtedly, these rights were sanctioned by the laws and the practice of nations; but surely such emoluments were more congenial with the temper of feudal and military times. times held in so great vene ration by his Right Hon. Friend, than with the libera lity and Inowledge of the age in which we lived. It was a matter of serious consideration how great a difference might arise in fame times in the podia of dices fonds. He was ready to retain every thing necessary for the honour of the Crown, because that honour was inti mately connected with the safety of the country. Bat, on the other band, he was anxious to remove a practice unjustifiable in itself, still more so as it was ren dered a source of revenue to the Crown, and as it had been abolished in other nations. The continuance of prises, he thought, indeed, essential and justifiable by the laws of nations—without them, the country would soon descend from its station, and ultimately lose its maritime existence. He would he the last man in the House to sacrifice any of the just rights of the nation ; hut unfortunately they were blendid with what was formerly supposed to be the sourer of our r rein) wealth, and is still helievol, by the ignorant jealousy of foreign nations, to retard their own progress in cons meter. In no other country could a discussion arise upon the subject that now engaged the attention of the House. No country hail such a subject to agitate ; but to us it came down in the mass of numerilith other regal claims from the time of Bollard ll.—(Hear, hear !) The House might he assured that these matters were looked upon abroad as among a confused and unintelli gible assemblage of exercised rights, which, in the opinion of foreigners, entitled them to call us the tyrants of the sea.—(Hear, hear, hear!)—Vpon the subject of ;irises in general, he would observe, that it was singular, to say the least of it, that the private pro ' party of an enemy on shore was held sacred, hut the moment it was found at sea, it became the property of the captors.—(l hear, hear!)—hint the practical effect of this law was not without its advantage to mankind, as it afforded an inducement to the cultivation of maritime force, which was that strength most naturally applicable to tuitional defence and security. Still lie would leave the matter open to whatever degree of reform it might Sinfully undergo in future times. While upon tliis sub ject be could not avoid observing how frequently it had been said, that one of the purposes, and of the • minuend able purposes of the Moils of the Admiralty, was to Wool relief to British merchants abroad, rho might stiffer losses in property in consequence of its seizure by the enemy. He believed, indeed, that that purpose was carried into practical effect witliont regard to British merchants in Spain, whose property was violated, and that the droits accruing ft the Spanish frigates were applied to that object. But if ever a ease existed where compensation was due, it was in the case of the British merchants in Denmark. It was admitted, even in the opinions of the advocates and panegyrists of the attack on Copenhagen, that that was a rase of sonernion foa— ms act without a parallel in the history of this, or any other country. The Danish droits, lie believed, amount ed to bettt reit one and two millions. The British sub- • jects' losses in property amounted to about 200,0001. so i that a tenth part of the drisits would have compensated the merchants. 'lley applied for that compensation, but they applied in vain. Two years ago, he presented , a petition to the House upon the subject, and he il glut it one in which the House would have terfered. The answer, however, which he understood to have been received from thrTreasury %I AS, that though such a compensation was given in tilt' case of Spain, still that, as that was a hail preeeilein, it would not be fail lowed.--(llear, hear !) The lion. arid Learned Gent. proceeded to point out the injustice of this refusal, anti concluded with the inference that HO flOolleOSatioll ought to he given for those funds, which might to have been, but which never Were, r 'nacre.' Am .111.4111 e to the purposes for which thry were supposed to have been held. lir. AIARICIATT supported the motion of the lion. and Learned tientlentan. Mr. W. WVNN thought that the proposition of the Right Hon. and !warned I ientlesuaii to have the arl'ollnts annually laid before the House, fully met the object which was sought for, and he shoul d, therefore, vote assume the notion. Si, J. NEWPORT aroteil, that, after the promises which had been given by the predreessors of the pre (sent Ministers, they could not consistently resist the motion of his lion. and Learned Friend. Mr. 3 I ACIA INALD spoke at sottr length in favour of the motion. If the Civil List could not be reduced, it ought at least to he simplified. He praised the 'lomat , chial systein as most congenial with the character of the people of England. Ile was ready to do every thing ne i teasers , for the honour of the 'flint:tr. Splendid let it tbe in moderation, but not ostentatiously so. These were in nts when some diminution of the splendour , 1 of the Crown was an sccessimi to its dignity.—(llear!) Sir R. WILSON bore testimony to the dislike which generally prevailed among officers of the navy to the present mode of rewarding captors. Mr. TIERNEY contended, that before the House WI S called upon to vote the Civil List, they should know the whole amount of the revenues of which the Crown was possessed. Until then, they would be in the dark. As to compensations to the Crown, he differed with his Hun. and Learned Friend as to the necessity of them; bat he could not see, if they were given, how they could aid to the public burthens, since it would be only paying Iron, one fund what was received in another. The House bail already a rare specimen of what Gentlemen on the other side would do, if they carried the Committee. Of three or four speakers who bad given their opinions at some length, not any two agreed in their plans. They differed from rich, and differed amongst themselves.— (Hear!) —Ministers proposed to continue a system, the operation of which hail been felt for years.—(He..r!)-- A system which, by long experience, was well under stood ; simpler in its detail anti mote easily understood than the new-tangled and ill-digested plans suggested to night.—(Hear!)--It possessed the advantage of long standing., it was the antiquated pleb, the old vestment of respectable appearance, to be preferred to the newly hatched garb of modern invention. By long experience this system hail acquired strength, anti it was precisely the same as it was arranged in Irll6, when it appeared Ap Parliament to he mine" the averaged expenditure of former years the sum of 150,11011/. It nas upon the ar rangetnent of Wl6 that Ministers still proposed to act. He was surprised at the haste which Gentlemen felt upon the subject now, compared with their former feelings. He recollected in the last Parliament he was called upon at a time that the Session hail only to last one fortnight, to bring forn.::ril then his Civil List Bill.—(Hear, hear'.) —lt would appear by the accounts that '23ti,olltll. would be taken off, from the allow ance of ISI6, in conseyience of the King's death.—(Hear").—So much, therefore, would he saved to the Consolidated Fund front the cons• parison of the expenditure of Wl6, to the expenditures( the present day. The whole gist of the objections to the retention of the Moils of the Admiralty in the hands of the Crown, seemed to be the temptation aisle!' they held out to Ministers to engage in useless or expensive wars, as being so ready an instrument in their hands. I f Den tletnen would but have the candour to make the &Anew. ledgment, they should own that at least, on some *MO., lions, Oovernnsent had made a good use of this power. In the celebrated case of ISOI, ashen a war was threat ened with this country, Government, by laying an eus.l bargo on the Danish ships, prevented all the bad come►. quences to this country of a ruinous war. This measure, which was adopted instead of confiscating so many ships. aided by the glorious victory of Lord Nelson, and the happy change which took place in the Russian Do. vernment by the death of the Emperor Pant, saved this country from a war, and the vessels were afterwards re. stored: The droits were originally intended to be ap plied to the naval service. So they had beep, for three fourths of the Spanish raptures *ere given to the I nivel service. If the object of the motion was to come at. the amount of the droits, Gentlemst would be quite gratified by the annual returns of the droits and colonial revenues %lath were laid regularly before the Hostsie. Ministers bad no objection to conti nuing these, and it struck him as a little extraordinary, that now, for the first time since ISM, an objection should be taken to them.—(Hear, hear!) Sir J. YORKE asked, whether or not the gallant Officer who conducted the Congo and Souchung expedi tion. had a pension on the 44 per Cents. The reply to this question would determine him which way be would give his vote. He was always ready to support Govern ment, but not having received an answer respecting tie pensions, be thought it his duty to vote for the Commit tee.—(Heir, bear! Question. question!) Lord A. HAMILTON said, Ministers had been alwai s meeting their motions for inquiry, by saying that ts.e beginning of a new reign was the time to inquire irto the Civil List. He was at a loss to know to what period they now proposed to defer it.—(!fear'.) • Mr. R. BATHURST complained that the House had been drawn aside by specious arguments from the real question. The real object with the originators of the motion, was not to ascertain the amount of the Omit; of the Admiralty, but to take them out of the hands of ts..e Crown, and place thetn at the disposal of Parliansen - . Mr. 8188 GILAM then replied. In answer to :lie sarcasm thrown out by the Chancellor of the Ext•liesi•: , r upon the inconsistency of Gentlemen at his aisle in their plans, he would only say the Gentlenwn at the !CAMP stile with the Right lion. Gentlemen were quite safe from such an imputation, for as only one ventured upon any sot of statement, lie could be only at variance with 161w-el'. —(hear !)—lle wondered the Law officers of the Crow's were not there ; they appeared to him to form as gr...tt a part of the appendages of the Throne, as those (kw', which his motion proposed to make turn to arrow's!. lit conclusion, he declared, that so far from wishing by Ipia motion to strip the Crown of any of its dignity, nu man wished better to see it supported in a state becoming the.

He wished the King may live long, and reign happily, assured that his firmest footing was the interest which his virtues would create for hint in the hos 1111 l sof his people.--(llear, hear, hear !)
