For, as a Speech from the Throne milli ted a 'gatemen, or the situation of the coun try, (lertiletneit could not be expected to make tip cieir a moment, oil so comprehensive a subj .—attil, therefore, time for consideretion Was t...ianed and was conceded. It its curious for the I louse to observe, how, by degrees, this useful woe t see has been teen out by the 51inistero of the Crown diat or are at this day called on to give our esseid to an Address, the echo of a Speech which we li tee only heard read once. before this practice was adopted, it was usual for the Lords to meet at this Treasury, and taw Common' to assemble at the Cock-pit, 'there they heard the Speech read, which was intruded to be delivered from the Throne— %nil toils they came to the discussion, in some 'levee prepere.l to offer their opinions. I recollect, before 1 came into Porliattient, it was the practice to have the Speech intended to be delivered from the Throne, piloted roil distributed the (ley before it was to be pronounced—by which means Gentle n:rll 114111 some opportunity given them of atiolyzing it• contents.

I snean that part of the Noble Lord's speech, iu which he declared his belisf, that the individuals whose lives were forfeited to the offended laws of their country, were sacrifice/1 to the tampering acts of his Majesty's Government. I say, there is on foundation for such a statement—and I will disprove that assertion, as strongly and satisfactorily, as any fact. that is nut founded on truth, can be disproved. I will say, that not a scintilla came out on thi-e trills to chew that any such acts had been resorted to.—(Hear.) — The individual alluded to was placed' within the reach of the parties, and, if they chose to call him on their trials, they might have done so. There is, in fact, nothing to support this statement, but the assertion of an individual, in the last painful ma. meta of Ids IJr•—but it was surrounded witl► cirs. cumstances of such a nature, as removed all credi. bility from it. The observations of the Noble Lord, as to the want of matter, in the Address, can have very little weight, because various opportuni. ties will occur for the discussion of all the topics connected with the situation of the laundry.— Ministers are not disp me d to imagine, that the view which the (;entlemets opposite formerly took of their conduct, has of all changed 'since we last met. They will, no doubt, again assert, that the state or the country did not warrant the measures we resorted to—but, we trust, we 'shall be able to sliew that they were absolutely necessary. The Him. and Learned Gentleman (Sir S. Romilly) has said, that there opiteurs to be a conspiracy in the minds of his Majesty's Nliiiisters to plan some thing against the vital Worths% of the conotry. I don't Olio's. Sir, the house will agree with him in That sentiment, nor will they assent to various other imputations which he has been !demised to throw out against the Members or the Government. I 410 slot think ii savours mud, of a disposition to willow's', or abridge popular liberties (when they can be 'safely enjoyed), when, at the outset of the Sesaion, they are ready to repeal that particular law which necessity compelled them to have m oonrise tip. But this is a topic on »Inch Ido nut wish to enlarge, because we shall have another, mid a more advantageous opportunity of adverting to it. Ministers do not mean to withhold from the public what the real situation of the country has been, front the period when it was last inquired into- • old, on an early day, I shall have the honour to snake a eosntaunicatiosl to the House oil the subject of allot has been passing in the country, since Parliament last assembled. I hope, when the proper information is Ltd before them, that the (louse a ill feel, that what was done iii the last Session, was not only done with a prudential caution—but also, that the state of internal tran quillity which now prevails, and which will enuble Pailiument, consistently with their (boy, to do away with the Susoecision of the Ilabeas Corpus Act, is owing to the operation of the laws which Mimic's introduced, and to the measures they adopted to home the public testrty. I have, Sir, passed over many of the topics introduced in the course of this debate, berause I do slot think it would be agreeable to the Hume to discuss them now, ashen so 111511 y opporiunities will naturally alibi. for that purpose, w the course of the Session. Hot, I can assure the Noble Lord that his Ma jesty's Ministers are not at all unwilling to go into any discussion of their measures, which Gentlemen assay think they demand—mill we entertain a well gimmiled hope, that we shall be enabled to satisfy the House and the public, that wa have discharged a most 11160111 duly, honestly and fairly—that we have not pushed our measures Iwyond what the lie. cessily of the case required—mai that we exercise the important power intrusted to us by Parliament, in mercy as well as iii justice. The dangers that threatened the country were great—and I slow cull. the House mi the restoration of tranquil. hay. On the other hand, I will not say that nu 'Lower slow esista—but it is, comparatively, so small, it is bit mock duuutislned, iii consequence of the firm conduct of Pailiainent, as to call out the Go vernment to trust so the renewed traiiquillity of the country, without having recourse to that measure which was !lapsed to the lust Session. With respect to the grueial situation of the country, I am mak fied with she picture of prosperity which is contained the Speech from the TS) —a more gratil3ing picture it is impossible to draw of ally country in tile world. On these grounds I submit, that, whatever difference of opinion may exist in the House am other shatters, tuna )) i t nity on the great calamity as have experienced being expressed on all sides, oo oppo. aitiou can fairly be offered to the Address now pro posed. The Noble Lord having entered those pro tests which he deemed necessiary, will doubtless absent to it. Ba• au doing, neither he, nor any other individual, can be considered as foregoing ally poli tical opinion." 51r.

Muniltote) benig likely to throw most importing light on the subjedt-1 thick it would, under such circum stance., be premature to go into any discus.ion CM it. a.l i opiesion is, however, precisely the same as it was last Session. Nothing that since occurred has had a tendency to shake my ojneeion, that the evidence adduced, as well as the want of evidence, ought to have led to very different results. But, as his Majesty's Ministers are about to proceed with au investigation, let us wait sill it he granted--and let us hope that they will be able to sleety, to the satis faction of the public, that the Constitution of the country has not been unnecessarily and wantonly suspended. The Address, as the Noble Lord says, pledges us to mntii•ng. Ido mot think it pledges us, as me Noble Friend (Lord Folkstone) seems to suppose, to the opinion, that the. COltAllieroble im provement *lnch has taken place in the situation of the co try, for the lust six or eight months, is to lie attributed to the measures adopted by Minis term. It does not pledge us to any thing except the consideration of the Treaties with Spain and Portu gal. If it dill, I certainly could not pass it over without observation. I hope, that, at a future day, we shall have a real inquiry into the past and pre sent state of the country—and for that inquiry I memo to reserve myself." Lord CAsTLEREAGII, in explanation--•' The Learned Geutleituati seems to imagine that I intend to propose an u►yniry into this subject. Ile has quite esii.understood ate. I do not intend to do more than it usually done when a communication is made to the House. I have not intimated any it►- tention of instituting an inquiry into the reasons for adopting measures, which the wisdom of Parliament deemed necessary." Mr. BROUGUAM—" Whether the Committee is to he filmset; or not, I anxiously hope the intended proceedings will be something inure than the mere calling on the House to examine some documents, drawn op by his Majesty's Ministers, and sent down to us in u green bag. That would be a complete mockery."—(Hear.) Lord COCHRANE—" I consider the Address to be quite unworthy the sanction of the House. It is ridiculous to congratulate us on our improved situation, when there is air army of 130,000 still existing amongst us in time of peace—air immense force, supported contrary to the constitution of the country. It would have been well, had we been congratulated in the Speech from the Throne ors the diminution of our expenditure—it would have been well if some specific proof of our growisig prosperity had been adduced. If, for instance, it had been slice/to, that our pour houses were cleared of paupers, and that our starving sailors were bountifully reliev ed. The Address, I contend, is a mere mockery and insult to the people. Do Ministers, I ask. mean to atone for their delinquencies, by building churches ? The greatest snorers, ill former tunes, took the saute method to make their peace with heaven. Every man wlrlHi a true sense of religion most (eel, that !Moisten; would act with more true pi. ty if they enlarged the gaols, built more penitentiaries, and ftll•4r4ll au addi umid number of alms-houses. It is impossible that things call go on in their present state.— Soitiething effectual must be dune, when the prior's-ruses are utterly incapable of smmorting the thousands that are starving. Except under despotic governments we ...re no such scenes. Look to South America—look to North Atnertra—are the people there overwhelmed with poverty and misery? It is in Spain and Portugal, st herrn state tyranny prevails (and, I am ashamed to say. this country is almost reduced to the same deplorable state), that such misery abou n ds. lousiesd of remedying evils of this dreadful nature, the public money is squan dered on new streets, and other insigilifiettalt objects. It would lie inure to the credit of the House it' they paused before they ag reed to so flimsy, and, in my opinion, so foolish au Address."
