Mr. Grant presented the 19th Report of the Commissioner of Military Enquiry. which was laid On the table. The consideration of the R.port of the Insolvent Debtors* Bill was, on the 'notion of Lord REDLSGALE, postponed till l'b rsday. fhe Bill for the more effectual Punishmeat of Persons recciv. log Money uadrr false Pretences WAS, on the motion of Lord ELLENBOROUGII, read a second time, and ordered to be committed. The Irish - Grain Prohi 'Mon Bill was committed) Setteral private Bills were brolglit up frora ilie Commons. The Solicitor-Gcneral was heard iu the appeal Waterparke and Austin. Farther proceeding. on Thursday.—Adjourned. l ' - '.4b ., ... • HOUSE OF COMMONS. The 19th Report of the Commissioners of Military Enquiry was brought up. On the motion that the Amendments of the Margate Pier Bill be now taken into consideration, Mr. P. hl 00 It E opposed it, on the grounds of its being a job I and moved, that for the word " now," he substituted " this day six months." In :his he was supported by Mr. laishington and Sir W. Curtis ; and opposed by Mr. Marryat, Mr. Foley, Sir E. Knatchboll. Sir C. Burrell, and Mr. Caleraft. The House then divided : —lu favour of the original Motion 58—against it 16 Ordered, that there be laid before the House, a copy of the general Order of the Commander in Chief, relAtive to the at tendance of Catholic soldiers at public Places of worship. A Memorial was presented by Mr. W LBE R It CE from several Traders and Manufacturers in the North, praying for an extension of the provisions of the Riot Act to warehouses and out-homes. Mr. CAN NINfl stated, that in consequence of the postpone- 1 ment of the Call of the House. he should postpone his motion re lative to the Catholics, till Thorsday fortnight. - - CHANGE OF AD tIINIsTRATION, Mr. BROUGHAM observed, that the objection I iwhich had last night been made to the production of papers, that a future Administration might he hurt 1 • M ot ion i by such production, could not apply to the 1 which he was now about to make; for he understood, Ifrom authentic sources, that the same vigorous Ad- I ministration which had hitherto condubted the affairs of the country, was to continue in • poyer—that the ! Government still retained the confidence of the Priuce,l . though it had lost the confidence of Parliament— . that these pro forma tenants, as they had been for i the last week, of the seals of office, were to resume ! their functious, and try to regain the confidence •f .i 1 . the country. He u nd ers t oo d, als o , th a t it was i n contemplation to adjourn the Parliament, but he must I strongly protest against such proceeding, and he! begged thotHotAo not to consent to a measure calca. j lated only to further petty intrigues for place. He then moved, that an account should be laid before the House, of the amount of the duties collected for the last five year; in the port of London, distinguish-I ing-the collection of each year. • Mr. STEPHEN, after observing that his Hon. and Learned Friend seemed to know more of the state of the now arrangements than either he or most of the Members, stated, that he saw no reason to en tertain very gloomy apprehensions from the circum. stance of the Am er i can em b argo . Th e f ac t was , th a t 1 the export of corn from America to Spain, had of I late been so great, amounting to not less than seven millions, that the probability was, that the far larger I p tp a or;: t vha ct ei f iembsted, the stock go: in hand had been exported previous .1 Mr. WHITBREAD said that there undoubtedly 1 of the juun:: p o f nly in the 'tense, but in the country,.! a motif painful anxiety with r e s pe c t to th ose s t eps ' which were to be taken in convmuence of the vote i Contmoas on • 'fb•ursday•last. He i l we itt s ing soz re that the lion. a he did. hidnottidbeelnpaprlneaedsedGoerntaleatnto, ; . . _ ;.2ti afford them ally information on this subjct. I t now rose, however, to ask of the Noble Lord oppo site, an explicit answer as to his situation, and the situation of his Colleagues in office. That Noble Lord had intimated on Friday last, that the present Government was in fact, dissolved; it appeared, not. lis•a tiding, that they still enjoyed, in some degree, the coMitl , nce of the Prince Regent, that they mill assembled, and d e lib erate d , and advised.—[licar. heal'!]--It '.as certai•lly impco.sible that any ma c ; could appr(.ach his ltoy►l Highness without a.. quainting him with the perilous situati;M is whi c h h t and the country stood.—[lfear, hear!]—lt %as possible, whatever the Hon. and Learned Gentle :na i l might say as to the immetliate effects of the embargo, that when we were on the eye of that last calar:.:!ga war with America), any person admitted to the Royal presence, should neglect to inform the Sovereign of the internal and domestic situation of this country, and of the disturbance, discontent, and dissatisfac tion that pervade every part of that empire which the Regent now governed, either without the aid of Ministers, or with the aid of Ministers, whose inca pacity had been proclaimed by Parliament. lb begged from the Noble Lord, therefore, some dis tinct information respecting his own situation, a n d the progress made in forming an efficient Admiuistra. Lord earn ed C o A e S n T t I l e E a R n E A w h G o I I had sai d fi , r t s h t a s t p t o h k e e Hon. wa and a the habit of making so many erroneous assutnptioin and commenting upon them iu so irregular a way, that it was difficult to give any direct answer to .i; questions. He knew of no intention of moving an ' adjournment. and as to his own situation, he had only to toy, that it was ,now precisely what it its last Friday, he and his Colleagues still retaining their offices, during the interim occupied in concerting ar. rangements, on an extended basis. The Hon. Ge a . tleman who spoke last, had mingled also some irre. Igular observations- with his question, and for his own part, he begged leave totally to disclaim any knowledge whatever, that this country was on the eve of a war_with America. The state of the coup. try was undoubtedly alarming ; but he was happy t. state, that every post furnishe 1 intelligence of the most agreeable nature, and that through the eser. lions of the Magistracy, and the uniform good con. duct and regularity of the Local Militia, the spirit of disturbance was daily decreasing.—[Hear, h Ile hoped the Hon. Gentleman would endeavour to derive the information on which he relied, from more authentic sources than those of his Hon. and Learned Friend. With tespect to the surprise of the lion. ,Gentleman that the new arrangement was not settled, it would not be for him to learn that it was much easier to destroy than to create a Government. As the Hon. Gentleman had been a little instrumental in overturning the present, he ought to have rather more patience in waiting for the establishment of its successor. Mr. W iIITBREAD explained that his information was derived from public documents and the ants of the American Government. Lord CAiTLEREAGII observed, that there had beefs an embargo on the American ports three years ago, which, however, had not yet produced a war. Mr. WHITI3IIEA I) replied, that the act of lay. lag the embargo was not the only cause from which he deduced the probable and calamitous effect of a rup. tore between the two countries. Mr. 13ROUGHAM alluded to a recent declaration of Lord Bathurst, that there was a faint prospect of conciliation with Amprica. kir.S TO AR l' WORTV.:Y deprecated an adjourn. ment at so momentous a period, but was not of opi• nion that too much time I.ad been yet taken in accom plishing tbc object of a new and more efficient at. rangement.
