In the House, and in this country, I know there slightest act which could be construed into a breach of that !inan ely feelings of abhorrence against the armed despots of Europe; lily to which we have all along moot religiously adhered. So far though I equally well know that their expression is restrained by then as his MajcAy's Speech refers to this subject, I should hope it many : and as for mrsclf. whit I said of them in the MSC thaples would even please the Hon. and Learned tientlernan (Mr. . l i r. dently attached ti the nstitition, out .witlits. .eadcrs re sources, and kit to the oselves ; though willing to risk :li for their Constitutioa, they were beaten down, and are still kept down by nr.nee.

Either this country does possess this itditlCTlCe, and did not choose to exert it, or this coUntry does not ind in the commanding attitude desCribed by , the Honourable Oentkman. tiles,, liter.) Either we do hold the balan'e, and we allowed.it to bend on one aisle—we suffered liberty and national independence to kick the beam, and the despots triumphed, by our consent, and with our secession, or we had nothing whateverto do with it—we were permitted to exercise no infiutstice ; on the result we were shut out of their deliberations; we were denied a voice in Ir nb - why' three scats ago. I feel telly justified in repeating now. The soils are sown with the same seeds; the actors are the s -tote, and they are not likely to end their career until they people Europe wit!: their victims. We should consider the very embarrassing Sims. Pon in which our late policy has placed us. The House and the Government seem quite insensible to what happens to Old Spain, while quite alive to what occurs in New Spain. ' They seem quite' careless as to the parties or powers who interfere with the mother country; they forges that our old rival, France, now holds her in fall possession ; they forget ;he line of sea, of coast, of which by that possession she becomes the master; they have no apprehen. sion of any invasion of Ireland, while misgoverned and distracted: let Fiance rule Spain and he possessed of her coast ; what, they say, do we care for thet l'--are we afraid of France?—that France whom we have beaten bt fire ? Tree, we did beat France before; Lut I say we had now better avoid an expenditure of one hundred and seventeen millions a year, which that war cost us, ex.' elusive of the immense waste of human' blood. Ministers, I believe, feel the difficulties of the ease; though some of their adherents think them of a very trivial nature; and who was in the right, time alone will tell. With respect to New Spain, how ever, mew • that our honour, and our interest, and our . , Brougham) opposite. About ten months ago, it cannot be forgot ten, that it was said, in reference to the condition of Spain and her colonies, that "time, circumstances, and the force of events sub stantially decided the event," and his Majesty's Government hate since acted upon that opinion. Since then .Spain was restored to the substantial possession of herself; and the Speech from the Throne now pays, that his Majesty should have an unfettered power to act on that subject as circumstances may require. And the Hon. and Learned Oentlemito (Mr. Brougham) knows as well as I do the me tning of that to be. the power of rejecting all °ter tures, and refusing to join in all compacts where our interests might suffer in the slightest degree. It is but right that his Majesty should hold the power, and decide as to his judgment may seem most advirable. (blear, bear, hear.) Under all the circum stances, a question of such magnitude should be retained in our hands, and which, without entertaining the subject of Constitu tional or Monarchical Spain. or as to that conclusion to which she must almost necessarily come--(llear t hear, hear)--without, I say, at all entering into those questions, we are bound not to act between her and her colonies without the most ye and mature delibera.. tion.

I always I expressed my sense of the difficulry of fonr.ing such a Ministry, and the charge of inconsistency seine me nn that ;.o and is not maintainable. A difference of opinion with one's 'J. and -not ' with others, constitutes inconsistency. To show that these were the sentiments I always entertained, and that I did not think it necessary to have a Ministry formed also concurred in the expetie I racy of passing this measure, I refer to the: period of my public life which is moist frequently adverted to for the purpose fastening • this charge of inconsistency upon nie. In Lid I was nominated by the Prince Regent (now his present Majesty) to consult with the Marquis of Wellesley in the formation of a new adtainistration, arid the conduct I then pursued win be found not an re: of Liam- I iiistenc) on my part, but of inaccurate statement on the part of the I historian, who thought proper to select that Passage of my public life for the imputation of such a charge. . /a the arc:nip:men:a which were then making, what I dill 1 stipuiatc fr. ?

Whenever the question came before the lious.e. his sen iiinents would be found to be unvaried on that subject.

As anon as he became audible, we understoed hint to Ray that the declarations of the Slight Henourah'!e Secretary towards Ireland were most unsatisfactory, and gave a lamentable prospect of what the exertions of Government were likely to erect for that unfortunate country. The Seconder of the Address had stated, and it was not denied, that the policy hitherto pursued was ruinous to her interests. Yet the Right Hon. Secretary of State, SO far from promising . a change, asserted that none should take plan!. Another point, in his opinion an important one, had not been as.- verted to in the Speech, namely, whether Ministers intepded to make any redaction in the taxes. The Speech was, in his :Tinian, vague and unsatisfactory on other points.
