PETTY, in consequence of his previous notice, ruse to move fur the production of some eilelitioisol papers relative to America. T here could be no tics lrt that the instructions sent mit from this country aria to obtain a It . oTnial and &Atoll recognitem, by Aineries, of what was therein set forth ; hut, he contended, that no complete nor satisfactory inforinetiou coold be procured, our judgment formed, as to the transactienis that had takeu place between this country and America, miles. the House were in possession' of two farther documents.

The Noble Lord then concluded with proposing his first motion, which was—. 4 That there be laid befirre the House, a copy of the instructions sent to Mr. Erskine, as to the attack upon the Chesapeake." Mr. Secretary Ca Nat mu answered, that it was perfectly true these papers, already upon the Table, must be coitsidered'es extremely unperfeet, were they to be considered as having been pro duced for the purpose of g;ving a connected view or history of the nature and circumstances of the transactions to which they related. Althongh ur eolietirred In their production. yet it did not follow that he should concur in the production of those now sought. He had upon the former occa sion taken the liberty of stating, that Goveru- 'tient had no intentain of taking the seine of Par haineat at presr..t upon tire state of this country and America. nor upon the propriety or impro.. witty of Mr. Erskine's conduct in the ergot:is:Moil. It was at present sufficient that Porliumeut and the country knew that the arrangement proposed in those instructions had not been carried into effect. without being yet 'made acquainted with the sim ple fait, how fur :eat,. arrieeteiiierit might be yet emidocied to a more satisfactory isaute. lie war sore that the Noble Lord wind.) not call for tntur 'natinll, when he was aware that it Mild net be glees' without injury. The papers already Pro duce-1, nearly laid the matter at rest; although there might be another question, as to what were the h st miens of repairing the error into which Mr. Erskine had inadvertently fallen. The agreement conned into by Mr. Erskine and the Atnericuis Gower 1111 l eilt, had been disavowed by His Majesty's' Governineut, upon the ground that it was made without instructions. No 'verbal airsuralices that might have been gireu could juatify the propo sal of such an agreement. Mr. Erskine was in structed to obtain the concession of three pointr„ previous to a revocetioo of the Orders in Conned ; but not one of those poi n ts was gained in the agreement he had made. The Maui point was, the revocation of the American Orders as to Great- Ilsitaiii, and keeping them in force as to France ; but not even that - indispensable object had been ob tained ; nor was it granted that Great Britain was to execute the Americium laws as to France, to pre vent the trade of iieutrale with our enemy, although licked it was rather a matter of courtesy than any thrug else, to make this subject a matter of agree- tit, ies we might have carried that intro etiiet wi.liout any stipulution whatever. Neither was the as to the trade to our enemy's colonies Nerved t0..--What was required to be principally attended ter was. the weal of the Non-laterconrse and Non-liiiportetioii Acts, at the seine time that Americo' was to bind herself to continue these Acts ie force as to Frainee,toubviate the effectsof the Ber. lin decree.

This was ishiewilig a decided partiality, on the pert of America, towards Frame, as all iirequality Was thereby to he done sway. This enlinrvy Inure cavilled 1111011 that ground but instead of doing so, we retieweil our offer of reparat fur the Chesapeake. flow graciunolv it was received; and how far the fool, to recisociletiii f lit was made easy or smooth, or strewed firer wilt floe ere, any Englishmen, who hied road the notes sheen fly pros dewed, would be capable of judging. //tsar I Afar 'I All the toncrereon that was reposed by America to be made to us, was a renal of the pro clionerion •:x weeks wooer thou in regard ti.Frallee; as the noir intercourse act expired on the lyth.Mily, and the ohe measure would merge into the other. %'~ R s • For this short preferenee we were to pay the ail total recal of our Orders in Council, both to re gaol to America and France, although the latter power was nut recalling her decrees. By that agreemelit we were to be placed in e a orse situation then France.

SINECURE PLACES. Lord OsstasTor:, after saute discussion on the point of order, ititrodured a resolution, which.he prefaced with a speech, in so low a voice, that it could not be heard in the gallery. Ills resolution was, " That it was the opinion of the House, that the existence of sinecure offices, and of offices discharged by deputy, was unnecessary, and inexpedient for the remuneration of pnblic setvices, and that impious granted far more than one lite might be appropriated to alithe purposes to which sinecure pieces were applied.
