It —curl b,. en s welled into a victory only by the i n a ni . oas e t political connection, in order to get fiord ellington advanced to the Peerage.—[ficar' s 7 di . 1 It was a piece of Ministerial foppery.— fro, hear!J It was an object with the Ri g ht nonaurable Gentleman opposite (Mr. CAN. wG ), and his Majesty's Ministers, to obtain the support of Marquis Wellesley, and cense. naently they were anxious to limy court to that_ Noble Lord. He would congratultte, not the nt . Wei. Gentleman, bet his Majesty's Ministers,' o n having secured to themselves the support of that. Noble Lord. But still ho must contend, that it est with a view to (Pay court to him that Lord Wellington had been advanced to the Peerage ;.4 and it was now proposed to add a pension to that h•oner. If they were to look to the history of the eimotry for examples in which such h o no u rs teNar,ls were conferred, they would not find a singe case of a peerage or a pension granted' ee.ei such disputable grounds. It was not his to detract from the merits or services of Loral w e p . ng ton, either in India 'or in Europe ; but he 41 not thiek they merited the distinctions con. upon him, and he tvoislil not sacrifice his fared viiiions or feelings to Lord Wellesley, or those she nay differ front his opinions. He was as re ady as any Honourable Gentleman t 6 ad. eit that Lard Wellington was ‘ a brave, active, p!!eit, and _ enterprising Officer ; that he had le!oted very well in India. With his services he was nut sufficiently acquainted; bit one tling he was sure of, that they had re stead thethselves; ayd iii the services he had performed ;to Europe, he could discover no thi ng to call for such rewards. With the g rant of the rs . erg e, that Weise had certainly nothing to do. Ile as sorry 'the title had been conferred, but for Oat there was no remedy. That the thanks o f rat lieu t.: had been voted to Lord Wellington Is „ ne st true. But that such'* vote should be owe-al in support of the gram of a Pension ex. t all his surprise. Did the Right Honourable Gellman not remember the manner in w hick he a s !iatrielticil the motion furthat vote of thanks ? BA he forgotten the cold and frigid manner in which he had prefaced that motion ? The at.tlota. Gretiinem was perhaps on that occasion not &reel to go further, though since he might lace discovered something to quicken his feelings Indeed:l, him warmer on the ittitajeet. For hispart,. kW not given any opposition to the Yule of Thanks. He had always thought that the conduct d Lord Wellington in the battle of Telavera had ken that of a brave, nay more, of a skilful and ableOtfizer, and for that reason it was that he sot opposed the Vote of Thanks. But was its Therefore, to follow that such distieguished ho. sours should he conferred on so young an Officer ? What more could L o rd Wellington have received, if he had eminently distinguished himself in seve ral etepaigns—if he had grown old in .arduous Puke like the late Sir Ralph A.hacamolabio,. and dosed a life of perifessional labour its the arms of a tied 'ivory? (licor,hear,herre!) What hail Lord lichen received for the glorious vier, oryttfAbou kir, ithie.l gave to this country the French fleet, and *army that hail overrun Egypt ? Ile would weert, eitheut fear of centrailictioo, that if the victory of Aboukir had norbeen pined, we shoUld Thither have destroyed the French fleet nor expel. lel the French army from Egypt. Yet what had That illestrious hero got for such a splendid vice tory, which led to such important tonsequenees ? He was m isle a Baron; with a pension of 20001. pat—[llcar, hear ! hear! hear I .] Ile was wady to make allowance for the feelings by which • leaen may be actuated on this subject ; but Ming aside those feelings, would any gentleman compare the services of Lord' Wellington with gamed Lord Nelson ? Was it possible that such seomparison could be made, isr could any mad d sound mind and unimpaired faculties conceive reatinn why the same rewards should he 'inferred for very dissimilar services ? The batik dVimi..ra was, however, premier' into the s cause, Haile in part time Groton(' of the intended grant. hat had not that battle of Viiniera givtin to Junot the French army the only chance they had of Inistaining themselves in Portugal ?

If Por tugal weee.tii be defended by hint, howas afraid that they .would have to deplore some slick ruinous and bloody 'victiirfes as that of Talavera, and which would terminate in the loss of Portugal. .The Hon. Gentlenne then went into an exami nation of the circumstances and accounts of the action of Talavera, in order to shew that Lord Wellington's account of it was exaggerated, and that the . Spanish armyhad had a principal share in 'that saction. tie lamented that such an ac count should have been written ' Ity any British Officer. On the whole, he did not think that any .ground vested for the vote proposed. If Lord Wellington should survive the scrapes into which ho was constantly 'bringing his army, fie might one - .day be entitled to distinction and rewards. The Honourable Gentle Man next en. I Owed .into a critical examination - of the circum. stances of the campaign in Portugal, and of the battle of the Douro, with a view to show, that the latter was no victory, and that there were many parts et the former deserviug censure. lie ob served, that Soult, whose force was represented as "Ibrsing:bOn totally eess toyed in Portugal; was t i 6 General, who, with hi s division,. obliged !eer e :l l IWellisigton'to retreat. He concluded, by declar. Avg his intention to oppose the motion. Mr. F. HOIIINSON spoke in support of the motion. Mr. LYTTLETO:ST .thosight. that • his IV A. Friend (Mr. Calcraft) went too far in saying Lord Wellington might in time become an:excellent Of ;llcer. He had unquestionably given most tontine .leg proofs of his.alreatly being so. Ile had not met in the course of Isis. cossimetions with a single military Man who bad not '.greed that Lord IVel. 'fington was a very distinguish e d m ilit ary character. With respect to the affair of Talavera, was it no. thing to have stopped the progress of * . large French army ? was it nothing to haregaipod suchen silvan, tage over an army of twice thenuruber of his own ? Ho thought the merit of Lord Wellesley deserved praise ; but if it came to be compared with that of Lord Nelson stab battle of the Nile, the capture of fhe French :fleet, and the copse. quent expulsion of, the French from Egypt, the 4 coinparisnii Muse . l,vory far short indeed. , Sir Abercrombitilitinfted. his career of life ley a oplendid victory„.. which had been rewarded by the grateful sekeowiesigments of his country to Aw Posterity. Lord Wellington had, be hoped, many years of fortunate ability to go on with, 'Which would hereafter entitle him to the grati tude of his country. Much hid been said in that House on the sofijete of party=; he was willing to acknowledge he was a paety.man ; be wiaol4 al. ways support a party whose conduct did not militate Zcost the vital interests of she country.; hut lae . t iseeltiegt weld, itt rlfite left; IrrovriNiitie injurious to those iiittrest‘itian.ais unjust Oe' uo merited distribution of natives! Itionoties.e. He, for his own part, expected nothi.ig from Ministers; would receive nothing from these; and big eiteliest hope and wish were, that the Huesca would WA. pep them to do their duty to their country.— Highly, however, as he admired arid respected the military talents and character of Lord Wellington, he could nut givehis a..soot to the present motion. • General CH.MVFUItD entered into a general defence of Lord Wellington's conduct in Spain and 'Portugal, particularly in the tidied af the Douro, by which he forced Sault to retreat with the loss of his artillery, and 5 or 5000 (swops. If, as the Lion. Gentlemen had argued„ l e ord Wellington had niarcbtel'on slowly, so as to give Marshal Beresford an opportnnity of coming up, the consequence would have been that &elt would have- marched off without any injury whatever to his army. lie defended the proceedings of the Noble Lerd at Talavera against the observations made by Mr. CALCItifT. The Noble Lord, he. said, never meant to ge further than Talavera; and, that position he was to retain till he gotisueb *deals., tags offer the enemy as wank, enable Mot e° prieeed. with safety.' Under no t t coming down as he did, could hehevo gone fur.: thee; the Spanish army did not at that Bite come ' into the action arias, Sault; but if Citettalrad kept his poaltion, lioult must hire been defeated. CuCate had 14,000 man, and Lord Wellingten 18,000 iithen would have been not only the vic, tory of Talavera, but the defeat of 'Soule Lord.

If the ergo.' ment was enforced, that because the' King had granted a peerage the House should grant a pen-. sion, it led to the inquiry, whether the King had not done what he had no right to do. He thought it necessary to assign the reasons why he gave his vote against the present motion. Mr. HERBERT and General LOFT both spoke in favour of the Motion. Loh, MILTON said, though the Thanks of the House was ,one of the highest honours they could confer,. they were now called on to give a` Ifurther, proof. According to this doctrine,. the King had. nothing to do but to grant a Peerage, and then demand of-the Honm.. ter-vote a Pension. At the time this Peerage was granted, the Noble' Lord had a altar relation, high its uttife, and he supposisl it was ;wended fur the gratification of I his feelings,.as much as for the eminent 'services :mid to be performed. - In fo tmet times, much greater service, hail been performed, nd C.ocli I less rewards granted; hat •he supposed these:llW.► , fears and rewards were granted .tatter . i .. for Aka purpose of shedding a l us t re on the'presenr Air mioistratiou,i then for any very extraordinal, merit iii the soutlioct of the person to whom they.: were given.. This was not his reason for opposing it; hit seeing .nothitig in the condnct of Lord Wellington, -that, in his 'opinion, entitled bias either to a Peerage, or the thanks of that Hoesai' . he would protest against voting him a peusiiin Of 20001. a.year, to be drawn• out of the pockets of the people. . . Sir FRANCIS I3URDEPT said, that to. ninch had already been urged on the present question, he had not occasion to tremble the House* except on one or two points, which rendered the pro position ohjoetioaabie, and Was the cause of hie, I voting against it. An Hon.
