On the Order uf.the Day fOr the consideration of the Prince Regent's .Message, . The Earl of Lf V ERPOOL shid not think , . . it necessary to take up the time oldie. House by go ing at any length into this subject.•' Whatever dif: ference of opinion there might be as to the state of a ff airs in Europe, or as to the systeas•ofiso- Hay that had been adopted, all must agree : its the tee-: cessity of enabling the Government to take eirinttage of any cireainstantes that might arise during the re. cess.vl Parliament. The Km was undoubtedly cab siderable, but when it was considered thiit we were now carrying on operationa'bh a most extensivevnle in the'Soutli of Europo, in Vie t Peninsula, 'and when . the preitent, situation of Affairs in the Jort4i of Europe was also r cattsidered, the sum wotfld'not (pm'. more_ than sufficient. His Llrdship concluded by moving en Address! to the Prince Regent, concurring in the Object of his Itnyal• Highness's Message. • . • lord HOLLAND declined, at * the present mo- ! Meld, arid on so short a-notice, entering into the corn-' 'plicatecl details-which the present situation of Earope I' involved, but he' felt be should not discharm his ~ duty it he did not state (and that opinion he' Meant' to record), that a great :opportinitY bad Presented . itself to Ministers,, either of effecting a. permanent Peace, or of preying the -rejection by the. etiamy of fair and honourable terms, which Would have pre vented; him front making the exertions he hail glade to renew - t he War, • and which opportunity they had test. ' Tlll - osppOttysitf flesented itself at theler.i minalion of the last eampauge,asid they hadao Woe- tnation`whatever of. any effort . having bees made, either for tie attainment of Peace, or in the failure of effecting that upon fair and honourable terms, for a vigorous proseeution of the war. Had propositions i been offered , sudh as were consistent to the honour and character of the country,* the time of the re- : i turn of the Emperor of the French to Paris, from, his 1 disastrous campaign in Russia, could there be a doubt t I 1 that either Peace must have been the result, or. that 1 it would have been rendered manifest to the people 1 of France, that the war only continued in conse-1 t.euencti of the ambitious projects of their Emperor; . 1 . 1 and mdst not this conviction have prevented him from Imaking those astonishing exertions he had made in 1 i the present - campsign ? ' Instead of this we had acted ' as recruiting serjerinta to the Emperor of the French, and had contributed' by. the absence of that frank ' and manly policy'to swell his ranks. Ills Lordship concluded by moving an Amendment , stating the tie sire of the House, that no opportunity might he omitted which Might afford au opening to a secure. i . and honnurabloPeace. The Earl of LIVERPOOL denied that there was 1 the slightest reason to believe that there was any disposition to peace on fair and honourable terms on the part of the Ruler of France. On the contrary, at the very period of his return to Paris, .his own official papers publicly stated the terms on which alone he would make Peace, and which were too ex travagant to be listened to for a moment, The Amendment was founded in distrust of Ministers, for which there was no reason, and would;, if car ried, defeat the very object it sought to attain. The Earl of LAUDERDALE contended, that even supposing .the .Ameitdrneut.to be. carritui,i.there was nothing humillatieg in offering fair and honour able terms of Peace, nor did it imply a coicfesnien of our being reduced to the. necessity of suing for Peace. He concurred with bis Noble Friend In the opinions he had stated. ' Lord BOLA ANDobserved, with respect to the ' French official papers, thatthey were put forth for the purpose of preventing the-offer of fair and ho ' nourable terms of Peace, and the object shad sac '..ceeded. As to distrust, he was, at the commence ment of the Session, disposed to place every colt& 1 ' denco in Ministers ) that they would not neglect a fit ' opportunity for otfliing Peace, and therefore he forbore from bringing forward and' motion upon the subject, but after the opportunities they had neg lected, he was bound to distrust them. • r The Amendment was negatived, and the original ' Address agreed to, and ordered,fp he presented to his Royal highness by the Lords with White Staves. . •• _ Adjourned till to-morrowSthis day)._ HOUSE OF COMMONS. • The Fire Arms' Bill passed through' a Committee,' and was ordered to he repOrted to-morrow.

SMITH objected to the passing of a Bill which would so materially affect the poor and the Magistracy, throughout the whole country, at so late a period in the Session. _What he should advise was, that the measure should not for the, present be persisted in, nail that the Bill and Tables should be circulated throughout the country by which means Fthe . objections to the Bill would perhaps be removed. As the Will was wished for by all the bakers, it fol lowed, of course, that it_would raise the price of bread ;—whether this rise were proper, would•be subject -for future discussion. lie should move, as an Ameudment, that the Report be taken into con sideration this day three months.. Mr,IIUSKISSON supported the Bill, as tending to equalize the price of bread. . AIr.'F;LEIVIN replied. The measure, he' con tended, had been fully discussed in the Committee to whom the Petitions of the country bakers had '-hee.u-ref , ••• , 4,1. All the country bakers did not peti..

The Royal Irish Canal Bill, the Trinity Doctrine Bill, and the Free Duty Bill, were severally read a third time and passed. On the third reading of the Local Tokens Bill, l• Mr. P. GRENFELL called the attention of the. .11ouse,to the issues of • Copper Tokens in different parts of the kingdom—some of adnfterated metal, and others so slight as to be of small value. The loss of' these issues fell on the poor manufacturers to • whom they were issued. The remedy for this would be by dense 'in the Bill before them, or (which would, perhaps, be better) by separate enactment, •• when another evil issue of counterfeit halfpence would at the same time be provided against. This trash, paising under the name of halfpence, cou ld totily be suppressed by suppressing the ohl Tower ! ' coinage, of which, in 1110, (according to Lord Li verpool,) there. were 1500 tons in circulation : this quanti'y must have been diminished since that time. Of the counterfeit halfpence 73 Sometimes made (Duly a 'pound. • The CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER said, that on a pro9er occasion there' would be more dis position in his Majesty's .Ministry to take into con , sideration the . state.ef the copper coinage. The Bill was. reed a third time. •• • AXlfl9l(iXil carTol. - Mr: Alderman ATKINS rose, in peramince of ftrls notice; to call the attention othellouse to the i'4sth of the King,' as far as related to ,the itaperta.. thin of Ainerican Cotton. Ife had' hoped that his Motion would have been rendered lintiecesgrY. some steps on the part of his Majefty'S Ministry ; and he had forborne any motion on the subject pen& ing the Armistice with. America Ile then referred to a Petition which be had presented from 250 respectable merchants amid manufacturers, who stated that there was a sufficiency of, cotton procurable from other' soorces,• and that Olive imports had-been made on ,'the supposition that the importatien of this article from America would be prohibited. • The East India 'petition stated,' Wit there were4l3 millien pounds of totton impertetllroivrindia,:nod that tbeee-.oeMaissed. '2l million; in, their . warsthouses, only 25 millions being - consumed by the manufacturers. By the in dulgeuce shown to the Americans, the British market was glutted, and we ,had 169,119 bales lying on hand.: The T1°1160410 Member then referred to various petitions froM Paisley, Lancashire, and thel city of London, which* were, in neneral, in favour Of the non-importation of cotton from A merica. —America realised annually a million and a half `by the exportation of the „raw material. To show I that this country could do without American cotton, 'he stated that the entire. Copstkmption of . cotton ,was .ebOut seventy-two millions . of' .pounds yearly, ,and that we could import forty millions of panda from Brazil alone, and 20 from Our colonies. It. was the principle of the American Government.te exclade our manufactures, and cripple our com merce, and he thought we ought to imitate her ex ample in carrying on the contest. Twenty years ago, we had all our indigo from America,- whereaS, l at thelast India sale, there were 11,700• chests dis. posed of ; and by pursuing the same policy; the'same . results might be expeeted, with'respect to the growth* and importation of cotton from that country. 'The Honourable Aldermaq,coecluded with moving, that the Houie repolve itself into a Committee, to consi:.• der Of, and repeal so much of ail Act of 43d of the King, as relates to the permissine given to neutrals to import cotton w o ol from States not in amity wjth Gloat Britain ) 4.

Such a difference of priee could not constitute a necessity fur depicting front the policy of a state of war.

In 1794, whe cotton for between 7d.atid Bd. the manufacturers were in great distress, and received between 7 and B.tail lions to assist them, from . tarlimaent. It appeared, therefore,. that the connection between the low price of cotton and the prospects of the manufacturer was altogether ideal.

The number of negroes since the Abolition, from the inequality between tile two sexes, had been on the decrease. . But above all, the labour on a cotton estate was much lighter. On a sugar estate, the work went on night and day, and the negroes Were divided •into watches; but no night work was requisite fin- cotton. The digging of holes for the cane was a most a severe labour.- 1 0• n a. sugar , estate the negroes but too often. de creased, and on a cotton estate they generally kepi I increasing; every friend of husesoity woo* tlizeta fore, wish..to encourage the growth.of rotten in our i own colonies. lie should be glad to sae this measure adeitted, * viewing it as a restriction and retaliation on America. If similar measures had been sootier iadopted, the pressure would have been properly felt in that *cowry much earlier. If we made our selves dependent on America for cotton, they would :• tocT adopt some new measure with respect to it, in the spirit of their Non-importation Laws. We : ought not to leave so important a manufacture de ! pendent on that etiOntry. _ . Mr. FINDLAY explained. • Mr. PHILLIPS depied, that oar colonial posses sions were. adequate to supply us with a sufficient quantity of raw material, and maintained that the arguments employed tended to show the superiority of the American cotton. Ile was surprised, that Mi nisters had not declared their sentiments upon a sub ject of such greatimportance; btit they might be.de siro us of hearing the discussions on both sides, in order to take part with the stronger. The :CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, 'the table was ladee with contradictory lied tien's on this subjoct. What hehad heard fiom both I - parties appeared very satisfactory to him. On one side,hehad heard it said, that the price of the raw I • article was of no consequence to ear manufacturers, Hind they were never in so miserable a state as when I tbecottou was at the 'nicest. The manufactures, it .is trite, 'did not. floqrish when Vie rotten was low ; this was:not because the cotton was low; but the slid , 'cotton was tow because tham act annfetell 11!" flauriiih. ; The arguments oti.:the other Ada_ were not less estraordinare. Even if AmerN•wn cotton should not. 44. its.. way; to We ',.costatesu,np ,contieentst country could have the raw material•so well as this, and therefore, whatever provision we •might make, we were not in any great danger of - continental com petition.
