THE trAttS tent document as Lard Chatham's nerratiie t _ bad sot been sent down to them, and did hot, fe paint of fact, waist at the time erten Ministers made the promise. The gallant Officer (General Loft) had saved him a great deal of trouble; for t whatever bad been his opinion• of the. propriety Of Cang for papers which were given to his Majesty per. sonally, the Notre had voted that the thing might be done, and upon thir resolution they balled for. and obtained the narrative. As to the general principle, of the Earl of Chatham taking advan tage of his situation of a Peer and Privy Coon. cillor, to approach his Majesty's person, and give him private accounts of the Expedition of . which he had been Commander.ln.Chiet, which would tend to prejudige his Royal mind against the brare, Officers of his Navy, he believed there could be hardly any Member in that House, who must not allow that the thing was highly improper and; unconstitutional.—( fleas, dear!)—lt appeared now, that Lord Chatham, having acted on the Expedition in conjunction with Sir Richard Stra. chan, came to England before the termination •of that Expedition. In none of the officiti dispatches' which he had written from abroad, did he ever make the slightest charge against the Navy, or 'throw any imputation on any Naval Cotwoander, but, on the contrary, upon alt occasions bestow. ett upon them the most unqualifiekapprobation. 'Nevertheless, in the Narrative of Lord Chatham, and in this Journal : the reasons assigned for the nonperformance of the objects of the Expedition• were undoubtedly such as to confey imputations upon the naval branch of it. It was those obser. rations alone which tended to raise a question be. tweed the two services, and to put them at issue. This was a thing which had been carefully avoided by himself `and his friends during the whole of the Inquiry, and they purposely abstained from asking any questions thatmight tend to commit 'these two branches of the public service. If, ;Aberdare, any, disageelment should now take place,4'wes le. Lorillehatham t and to him alone, ttiatsit'ails tdhe'sittrihuted. It might, perhaps, be allowed to ane Catrnander, in the teal of the moment, le spew some impatience, ,if by any cause his orderahould not be seconded by another with wham -Oa was to co.operate...

'Oared upssa_Jsim the most unqualified Applitsse ; anal it 'was not moil the Eepeditiod. failed, and , that Earl Chatham had arrived in London,•that he then ,took advantpge. of tire perpetual aecess' which he had to his Majesty's 'person, to make private representations to his Majesty. of, what he unsigned as the causes of the failure. Thlit fie slid make those private representations mesa be .pae.. 'a i med from ail the circumstances4thiels have transpired, from his refusing yesterdarto answer .the Committee upon that point, and from the advice w hich had been Rivets to, his Majesty, with respect to the answer . which was re. turned to the .Address of the City of Lott. doss.

There was every reason to suppose those papers, telikh were . kept bark, contained charges and imputation 4 against the gallant Officer who com.nanded the . naval branch of the service. ‘Vheto a Military Cietimatuler took such an advantage of hitaitu. anion of a Minister, and of the personal emelt he ha(l to his Majesty,. he must say, that (MS was a system of favouritism which the . Hanle 'must bold in perfect abhorrence. (Mar, he !)• It was a sort of favouritism which the Constitution of this eissintry knew nothing of; and which was tint reconcileable to the idea of a limited Mo narchy. (11ear hear !) If Inch. ar • system of I favouritism was practised, it . would confound all the distinctions between those Monarchies that ere called limited, and those which arc acknoa !edged . to be absolute. Thu most determined democrat' never brought a stronger charge against any mo narchy, than that favourites had ready access to • . nities to poison his Zvi, ailed against brave and deserving men, who had no means of defend. ing themselves against such attacks, as minions had access when they had ovt. ( Loud cries of hear, hear !)- Would tbc House then hesitate to intreat his Majesty to pour forth into the bo. sae► of his faithful subjects, those reprasentattotis which it mast be presumed had been mode to him in secret, on the important subject which was now under iovestigation ? The [louse had a right to sup. pose tfiat there were other papers, awl that thuse papers did contain charges and imputationsagainst the gallant Officer who commanded the naval bunch of the Expedition (Sir Richard Strachan). This narrative, which had now been presented, was (asitho Noble Lord told the noose) in pre paration from the beginning u( October, and yet it was not presented until• the 14th of Feleruary, sod it seems that it was presented only for the por n! its being moved for. As the Earl of refused to tell what other papers he had previously put into his Majesty's hand upon this oubjec it was impossible fur the Rouse not to presume that he had given in other papers . which contained irnpetatious on certain of and which it was important that the House shotil.l be in possession Of; On evety principle j,istlce to Sir Richard &whim ) to the Navy, and to the ,lii. Publie, and according to every principle of the Coasdtation, tleia inlorasetion should not be with. field. Ministers were, niscroabtedly, recimosible -far every public aft of his Majesty, and for every advice which was given to him by any of their body. It appeared that secret representations had been mail to *is Majesty, and secret advice given. He kneir that; Ministers might ray, they did nut knoir at what Mace to find: those papers ; but he Could answer that objection, by est. ittg,w here did they find the other paper...the Nar. relive ?—[lletir hear !). His Majesty might send the papers now moved for, as he had done the other, to the regular office. He concluded by moving, "That an humble Address be presented to his Majesty, praying that lie would be .gra ciously pleased to order copies of the Memoran da, Narratives. and other Papers, submitted to his Majesty by the Earl of Chathami relative to the Expedition to the Scheldt." Mr. Secretary ILYDER, said., that he did nut attempt to question the right of the House to pre sent such an Address to his Majesty, if they thought it proper ; but lie would contend that, in the exercise of that undoubted rislit, they should always confine themselves withiu the limits of discretion. There was one observation which hail fallen from the lionntarable Gentlemateon the close .of his speech, es high appeared to him to be a full, answer to all the observations which hpal preceded it, Thu Honourable Gentleman hail himself been aware, that if the ILousa were to resolve open presenting such an Address, Mi nisters would not know. where to look fur the papers alluded to. He had no difficulty in stating expressly that there neither were, nue ever had been any such papers- deposited in any of the °flees of the Government, nor were the Ministers apprised of the existence of any such papers. [Lend cries of hear ! from the Opposition benches.] The narra tive of Lord Chatham had nut been communi cated to Ministers,. nor were they apprised of its existence until the 14th 'of February [near ! hear ! from the Opposition benchesj, and tltst was only. a Short time before it was preseeted at the Levee. lie believed, however, that - no whirrs ses had ever been presetited before to his Majesty, on such occasions, except fur the production of official papers (which these were tint), or praying to be informed who advised his Majesty to any particular act.
