The Earl of LIVERPOOL stated, that he had in. tended this day to move an Address to his Royal Ifighoe-s the Prince Regent, but he was induced, uy circoondmiers, So postpone ilia motion until to morrow. fie should therefore move that the Order of the Day be dischm•ged. The Marquis of LA NEDOViN did not rise for the purpose of oppream t the Noble Lord's motion fur disfliar„;Mg the Order, but he thought it due to himself and to the House to express his sense of the extraordinary prtrlicameitt into which their Lordships %vete drawn by the very unusual course of prnreeding recommended by those who had ad vised the Ptince Regent to send the :Message, mid nbat gtivt.stl the postponement of the Address, which, iikpuratialice of the ordinary practice of the House, mod in conformity with the respect which the House ought ever to evince lower& the Crown, ought to have beets returned as ►oon as possible. He could not hut believe, sod it was impressible fur the House also not to believe, that those who had advised the Alessuge were wholly unprepared to institute any measures in pursuance of it, and thence it hap puled, that their Lordships had unintentionally been educed to the necessity of ►eeming to sli-w a disrespect to his Royal Highness the Prince Re gent. Whatever discredit, however, may he sup pose I to attach to .SLICII4I proceeding, ought, he Foliceived, to be borne altogether by those who Iwd beets the conse of it. The Earl of LIVERPOOL acceded to the pro 'priori' of the Noble Lord's remark, that the blame whit...ever it might be, which should wise from this proceeding, ought to remain with those who lied advised it. If, however, it were the practice of the House to return immediately an answer to a Alessage from the Crown, hr did not couceive that iii inuring it, lie should fulfil his duty to their Loiclidoips, if he did not fully state to them the iotesditmo entertained on the subject by the Prince Regent's Government. To-morrow lie should be prepsred to do so, and be did not imagine that any eiscretlit could be attached to the postponement of the Address fur one day. Lord HOLLAND—The Noble Earl bad said, that lie alone was willing to bear the blame dist might result from this proceeding. It was, no doubt, very kind of him to take on himself all the responsibility of the votes of the I ; lint if the weir to discharge the Order of the Day, tin scippoiled ss bUcli u proceeding was by any prece skirt (and lie would defy the Noble Lord, so versed iu precedents, su desirous on all occasions of direct the House to be guided by the wisdom of their ancestors, to produce one), the impropriety or the proceeding would still remain with the House itself, tiotwitlistaiiding the devotion of the Noble Earl, and their Lordships would be guilty of a disrespect to the Crown. The Noble Lords opposite, indeed, thought to identify themselves so intimately with the Government, that they fancied they might easily 4611.1 e, take the responsibility ; but the House should not so far lolget its own dignity and what owedit to the Crown, as to cover its want of respect by such a pretence. The Noble Earl had iiiiegmed, that he might have moved an Address, merely acknowledging the receipt of the Message; but the time fur such a proceeding was gone by from the moment the House had resolved to take the matter into their comideration.—(lkur.) Consideriiig t:..at the Noble Earl had enjoyed the c intidence of the Prince Regeot, and bad had the .ctleasitage of a little Parliameni of his own— ( Load cheering flout the Opposition Betiehes)— it might hate been inferred, that he would have come down to the llouse better prepared with some proposition, instead of having reduced the House to the necessity of acting in a manlier so disiesiwctful, not only to the Crown and to the Douse, but also to the people. If the House were rtmilved to acquiesce in the proposition of hit Ma jest3's Mihisteis, it ought to be immediately avow ed, or should circumstances render it unwise or impossible to assent to it, it would be but manly and ingeolueus to declare it to the public. This pro erecting was commenced most inauspiciously; for if, uric r heels% held a Parliamentary Committee upon the subject, the mutter should be withdrawn, what would die public think but that it had been thole for the purpose of tampering with the Mem bers of the House? Their Lordships should not depart without expressing their opinion upon the subject. Ile should, tin refine, propose an Ad dress to the Prince Regent, acknowledging the receipt of the Message, and the expression of the principles upon which their Lorchhipe had resolved to take the Message into their consideration. With respect to the provision to their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of (7larence and Cambridge, it was cer- Sandy his opinion that Parhaineut should enable the Prince Regent to make some settlement upon them, but he thought such provision might be very well drawn from the provision already granted to .the Royal Family. The Noble Loud then observed, that the mo lion before the House was, " That the Order be dieckarged," to which he should add as an Amend ment. •' That after the word that, the folluwing be inserted:— ment, put the qsastiou in die usu,al form, "that the words e. diet this Older be discbarged,' stand part of the gwastiaii." • , . Lard HOLLAND objected to this form. Hie ausistdrneulwao ' " that after the word that , the fol lowing words be inserted—that an humble Address, &c." He desired that the motion should be so Nut. The LORD CMANCILLOR said he had put the question accorchug to the usual form, and Mooted back the amendment to Lord Holland, to alter it as he might think proper. • Lord HOLLAND hoped, as lie had not had the advaulage of any communication with a Committee out of Parliament upon the subject, that the House would excuse him if he appeared wanting in knowledge of forms.—( Hear, hear, and a laugh.) The LORD CHANCELLOR said, neither had lie had any communication with a Committee out of Parliament. that this amendment woeld have beets proposed with a want of form. The questiou beiug put as desired by Lord HOLLAND, Lord SIDNOUTR defended his Noble Friend (the Earl of Liverpool) fium die imputation of desiring to take upon lausself all the responsibility of the Hume; lie had inertly avowed himself willing to endure every. discredit that might arise from the present proceeding. His Noble Friend's object in dischurgitig the order was, that the House should not be called upon to vote an Address without hav ing obtained some information respecting the -ob ject of it ; yet that was what the Noble Burou (Lord Holland), who would have been the first to com plain if Ministers had so proceeded, now called on them to do iii moving his amendment. Consider ing the importance of the measure, was it uuresson able. or did it not skew a want of candour not to allow that some alteration might be made in the intentions of Ministers, shut their views might be altered.—/ Loud cries of " Hear." front the Oppo sation.)—He did unit mean to I ouch from his ex pressions, and still contended that it was unreasou able not to admit that different views •might he taken of the measure by his Majesty's Nlinisters. Those views should be c tttt tt itinieated to-morrow, and in the gateau time lie must object to an Address, which had been proposed in a manner quite unpu talleled. Lord KING mill this vest the first time that he had ever known a Minister of the Crown oppose an Address of Congratulati upou the event of such a communication ad the House had received. It was evident that Miiiisters had not made up their mind respecting the plan to be proposed to Par liament, and while they were collecting the opi nions of persons out of Parliament, the House was to remain* idle in expecte' 00000 of the result. The Earl of LAUDERDALE—The question had involved itself into the curesideration of what was the most respectful mode of proceeding. The Noble Lord near him had thought that a delay of one day was inconsistent with decorum, because it lied been unprecedented ; but it was for their Lord ships to consider, whether in avoiding one error they might not, by embracing the amendment, run into a greater. Ile had an objection to the form of the words coucludiug the Address; and if the House adopted them, it would be voting a censure on itself; fur they would imply, that their Lord ships had occasionally taken eubje cis into their ear sideration, without having had a due regard to the taxes and burdens of the people. The Marquis of LA NSDOWN thought it necessary to state why he felt it his duty, notwithstanding what had faltru From hint, to vote in favour of his Noble Friend's Aitteudineut. If the suede of pro ceeding now proposed were unprecedeuted, it should be recollected that it was imposed upou the House by the course so ingeniously prescribed by the King's Ministers, whereby the 'louse, io voting either way, must Atilt violate the forms of proceeding.—(Hear, hear, hear.)—The Noble Eat, (Liverpoql) had stated, that if the House were coated to violate the forme of proceeding that day, they should, on the heat, be apprised of the reasons; but the -Noble Viscount (Sidsouutli) proceeded a step further, and said, that tune should be allowed fur removing im pressions elsewhere—f" No, no," frogs Lord Sid etourk.)—He had understood the Noble Viscount to have so expressed I self, *lieu he had spoken of the siecessity of allowing time for the alt..ra. Lion of views and the change of sentiment-. It appeared that souse means, unknown to Par liametit and to the Constituf , were to be employed to correct certain impressions, where ever they may be entertained, and during the removal of these iinpressious the House were to sit silent. Certain arguments were to be used, nut tit to be used in Parliament, and because of their unfitness the House was to adjourn its pro ceedings. Lord HOLLAND hoped, from the courtesy of the House, to be permitted to say a few words in expla nation of his motion. A Noble Earl near him (Lau derdale) had said, that it was unprecedented ; but to this objection his Noble Friend (the Marquis of Lunstlowsi) had given a very satisfactory answer— it was the result of the equally unprecedented pro ceedings of the Prince Regent's Ministers. The Noble Eurl at the head of the Treasury had, after having consulted the Journals, and employed others to consult, made • motion fur discharging the or der, for which he could give no precedent; and if, on the spur of the moment, he hail thought proper to move an Address ad an Amendment, why should he be called upon fur a prece dent, in a caw, too, necessaiily of great diffi culty its consequence of the proceedings of Mi nisters? Their Lordships had been desired to wait for to-morrow, us if the word contained in it some magical power to correct all irregularities. if, however, Ministers had yesterday been asked for information, they would, mu the same manner, have said, " You shall have it to-morrow." How could they foresee, but that some circumstances might amide to make Ministers agent change their minds, and that when to-morrow c isic, they would be desired to welt for Thursday ? It might subse quently be found that F I iday was the lucky day ; and, should that pass, it might be st:g.;.sts.il that the intervention of two days would resider Monday a much more suitable day for the great communi cation. His Noble Friend (the Earl of Linder dale) hail objected t 3 the words of the Address. Those might easily be altered ; but alien lie surged, that those words at the close 1.1 it impli e d :k CeLAire on the Ins ',Nei lien was rot sufficiently ezteative ; fur on the sante principles his Nostle Friend might have complained of the words seal and attachment to the Royal Family, the iutrodection of which might be supposed to imply a doubt on,* ley:47 of those who would vote them. Sin3iliti professions lied been intros duced into the Address on the Princes Elisa beth's marriage, and if this matter were concocted to-morrow, the House would be again called upon to pledge itself in a similar manner, and yet his Noble Friend would hardly think that by such a profession his loyalty would be culled iii question. As for the disrespect to the Crown, the Prince Re gent would, on looking over the votes of the House, find that one Peer proposed that the Order for taking his Message into consideration should he disclffirged, but that the rest of the House lied, with the loyalty that had ever distinguished it, im mediately interfered, and prevented such a violation of decorum. With the gracious disposition of the Princes of the House of Brunswick, his Royal Highness would not even seek to know the name of the Perr who had offered him so much dis respect. He would throw a veil over it, and act with the slime magnsuimity as Pompey hail dune, who ordered the papers to be destroyed that con tinued the names of his enemies. —( Hear, hear.) The question was then put, and negatived with out a div aeon. On the motion foedischarging the Order, the Hotter divided— Ayes • 5l Noes 39 On our rendrni.sion below the bar, we found the Maiquis of Dow:ism RE moving for air Account of the total incomes derived by the Dukes of Cla rence, Kent, Cumberland, and Cambridge. from Pensions, Grunts, Military and Naval Commissions, [knits of the Admiralty, and all other sources , . The Earl of LIYERPOO I. objected to the words of this motion, but had no objection to furnish the information required. Earl Guosvgaoit suggested adopting the words of motion used in the Douse of Cominono.— ( Cries " order ! order!") The Marquis ol LA !MOW N observed, that no the votes of the Douse of Cionmorsi were before the House, it was Pirfectly regular to allude to them. The Marquis of DOWNSKIRE having altered the words of the motion, particularly by excluding the words " all other sources," it was carried. A Right Rev. Prelate (we believe the Bishop of EXETER), remarked, on the little respect that seem ed to be 4.liewit to the illustrious persons who were the subjects of the motion. Even the words " their Royal Highnesses" had not been prefixed to then. names. The gar) or LIVERPOOL said, he hope+) the re mark of the Right Rev. Prelate would 'tut he lust on the Noble Lords in the event of any further motion., The Marquis of LANaDowN raked, whether the motion could be ri.Pcinclvd fur the purpose of intro ducing those worth.? The LORD CHANCELLOR said it was impos%ilile. I.ol'll KEN vow said, that the House, in erni%i dering the proriainii proper to lie 'unwed to the Royal Dotter, could not, with propriety, contem plate the ()mations' grants which had been 'wilier., from the royal bounty. He should therefore move, that the words 1 ‘ limits of the Crown and Admi ralty" Ehoul4 be omitted. Lord HOLT. (ND Hated. whether any question was before the Home ? The Luau CH A NCELLOR answered in the ne gative. lIANK OF ENGLAND. The Eul of LAUDERDALE ro,e, in pursuance of his notice, to move for an account of the sums ad vanced to the Government lay the Bank of Eng- Wird, includisig the sums noKoutstandiog in Fe chequer Bills and other Government securities. The Noble Lod alluded to the Committee of that House, which hurl formerly inquired into the affairs of the Blink, and the inforitv‘tinn they had obtain ed rtspeetink thiitilvances of the Bind; on Govern ment securities, which had induced Parliatnent to impose certain restraints upon them. It %vat , nece4. wry that similar iliformai;on Oalulil now be ob tained, for the purpose of ioquirint; how fair the in terruption 'of cash paym.iit% had depended °lion such proceeding;'. lie beiieved that four mil lions had been refunded to the Bai.k at the cum. tnencement of the year, the ine,ctit difficulty load not been experieticril. The Noble Earl then con cluded sill, turning— _ . "That there he laiJ before the House an account of the total amount of all advances made by the Bank or Englund to the Government, including all sums now outstanding •lain Exchequer sills ur otherGoverametit securities." The Earl of Liveftpoot. ►aid, that of all the motions for information made this Session by the Noble Earl, the present was the only our to which lie load made ally opposition, nor sloottlii lie have done so in the present instance, did he Hot feel the extreme impropriety •f exposing the private con cerns of the Bonk. With re►pect to the former part of the motion, namely, the advances of the Blink to the Government, he could have no un willingness to accede to it ; but the latter part pro ceedrd too far when it required to know how the Bank had employed its own money in the market. The House had no more right to know th it thou to lentil the private affairs of any isitlividu,d in the country. Lord HOLLAND said, there was no propriety in the illustration used by the Noble Earl, for place any individual in the country in the tonne s:tuation with the Bunk of England, he would contend for the right of Parliumeot to inquire into the wanner of employing his money. If an Act of Parliament were passed for enabling IMn to moill paying leis debts, it would he prrb-ctly just in Parliament to inquire how he was laying nut hi. money. The Eon] of LAUDERDALE, in reply, said, that his reason for desiring to know how much of the money of the flank %vie• kid out in Excluquer Bulls was, that such a utntle of employing its money hail been prohibited by Act •of Parliament. At least, sou Eir lorpier Bills could be taken directly by the Bank truism 1114.

So far from this being the case, wool had, since 1816, and even in,the last year, increased in price from 1.. 4d. and Is. 3d. to Is. 7d. and Is. 10d. per lb. Kentish wool, from Is. od. and Is. 61. to 2.. and 20. 2.1. Sus-ex, from Is. 6d. and Is. Bd. to 24. and 2.. 3d. Leices tershire wools, from 20/. and 30/. to 3;/. and 401. per tod. The price of wool, it flit'. appeared, was rising in this country ; and, notwithst an din g th e home growth and that procured f abroad. the market was still inaderprittely supplied. It would he a satisfaction to the House to hear, ofier what had been stated to them rehrive to the witolleir ms nufact ore of Yorkshire, that at no period hail there been known so flourishing a year us the last, with the exception of the year 1813. Hr spoke of the absolute quantity of broad cloths in; tortured. Of narrow cloths there had been a smaller amount manufactured than in former years—lint that was made up by the great quantity of lady's cloths curl oilier articles of that kind, for which thew was& great demand. Under these men install es. the Hon. Gent. said, the manufacturer. could allor.l to vr:int this boon. But the fact appeared to hilt, to be die other war:. It surely better for this country to import the raw material, cud send it out in a 11111 at:toured state, than impose duties on the intro duction of the commodity. The great plea made use of IVNI• the propriety of Mere :sing the quosniity of a certain description of wool—aa if that could be dime without diminishing the growth of another kind. If the principle of the lion. Aft-oilier were adopted, they might grow fine wool in greater quan tities, but they would do away with the growth of long wool. Now the former could be imported from any part of the world, hut the latter could not be found airy where else. That very specie* of mid, which it was in contemplation to export to the foreign market. was that, wiihout which the foreign Mali a lad urer could n o t furnish good• equal to those produced in England. Would they theu act wisely to supply hint with the article? It woo said, refer this matter to a Select Commit te—they will report—and. if cut' do not choose to agree with that Report, there was an end of the busi n ess. But, on a question of such importance to the ma nufacturer* of the West and North of England, it was impossible to go into an ex . itinination, without iovestigating the price of wool, going into the. sub ject of machinery, trod other incidental matters, of great inspolatice. If the Report were not agreed to, he conceived it would he most injurious to the country, to let it go abroad. In 1316. when a Committee was formed oil this subject, his couiliset was reprobated both within and atithout . that [Loire. On that occasion, lie felt that the Iteprirt would he so dangerous, that he moved a resolution its the Lointrthice, corifining them to thus cousideratimi of the matters contained the Petition alone. That resolution was agreed to—and the Cu tttttt a only considered whether the state of the price of wool demanded the interference of the Legialature. No tlnng was done on that occasion—because it was found that the state of the price did not justify any new measure. The present motion was founded on the Petitions of last Session. Not a new time, ex cept one, which was that (boy laid on the table of the House, had been presented on the subject. In 1816, the C ttttt allure was appointed lirevo,tiN to the Easter recess, and the whole country knew of o and, with regard to the complaint of the low price of wool, not an inrlividusl, on that tal - asloll, at.- peered to substantiate it. As he could see no rea son for acceding to the motion, lie should ern hold/ divide the House upon it. Mr. CuaIVEN was of opinion, that the nit aga re which the Wu. Gentleman appeared to have contemplation, would not he the mesas of effec tually encouragiug that kind of wool fur the giowth of which he was particularly tlimiottb. At present this country possessed her long. wools, and hail the whole market of the continent open. But if the proposed alteration were made, though, their lone wools would find a market abroad, lie did nut think a single additional pound of fine wool %%wild be grown here. At a former period, when this measure was before the House, the price of woe averaged from 10d. to 18d. per lb. It was now from 18d. to 2s. The carcass also, which I;:rmei ly sold fur 36,. 6d. now brought 565. 'fliese advances were amply sufficient, lie conceived, to meet the reit amiable wishes of every farmer. It was a notorious, fact, that, within a given number of years, cloths, ro the amount of 34,000,000/. had been exported. If the fanner were allowed to export his wool, per haps, in a similar time, the quantity exported would produce 1,000,000/. Here, it was true. 1.000,0001. would be gained, but the export of cloth would be impaired. And it could not hr doubted hut that the export of good• to the ainouitt of 34,000,0001. would put a larger sum into the pocket of the farmer than be could realise if he • x. Porte dwool to the value of 1,000,000/. Besides. the alteration would probably have the effect throwing out of work many persons who were nos actively and beneficially employed. It was rein•ii k able that there was not a single Petitimi o il the ta ble from Norfolk, where one-third of t he whole wool-growers of the country resided ; and surely, if an alteratioti were necessary, they would Its the first persous to state the fact. The House l t d otter. been led to legislate on a partial view of agricaltio. ral mutters, and much mischief had resulted fioin it. Not long since the duty on rape-seed aims creased to 101. per ton, and the colisequence that the measure was felt most severely in those districts where that article was tecoduced. Ile should decidedly oppose the motion. Mr. D. Gir.sEar was of opinion that it wailful be a very great hardship if the House njecird ti propositivo of this kind, which was merely for air inquiry, as to the propriety of ullt•wf lig a l imners:at monopoly to exist any longer. Oir this grout'.;. without pledging himself to sowtott any (Wore immure, he would vote for the motion. r 1 i i~ 4 -NI: ..\ HOUSE O 1• COMMONS, TuzinAv, Arm 14,.

TiorLoß rose, for the purpose of pre senting a Petition trout the vestrymen of the parish of St. Mary-le-bone, praying that they might he allowed to introduce a Petition for a Water-work Bill. lie should move that this Petit be re ferred to a Comm tire. But, before be did so. he found it necessary to make a few observations. 'Flue proper supply of water was of very great import atter to the metropolis—and, in order that is suffi cient quantity of that necessary article aliotild be obtained, the New River Company was incorporated. Since that period several other Companies were in stituted. Lately there appeared a design amongst tit -in to over-rote each other ; and one Company, by underselling another, had endeavoured to iiistire public ftvour. Thus, if oae Company offered to supply water at 10s. per annum, another iiiimedi• utely proposed to fusee the water, by a superior power, even to the upper parts of house', for ss. The consequence was, that the Companies became so distressed in their linanceli, that they were almost under the neoessoy of salmi:nog their works. Had they been absolutely compelled to stop them. this great metropolis would have been dept iced of wa ter, which was so necessary for the preservation of health, for culinary pu poses, awl to preveiit the ra vages of tire. hi this situation of thilios, the %Vater Comp:rine* fouarl themselves under the s necessity of carving out the metropolis into districts, which those most colivemetit to diem were to supply—but in this Ellonnetit several places were totally omitted, and, amongst die rest, Ilya where he resided, so that they were almost prevented from rotomi t ; water at all. He was induced to look into this sukiret, in co- sequence of hosing, list Session, brought in the Metropelia Paving Act—and lie then saw the necessity of potting an end to the imposition of the Water Companies. It was clear that competitioit was always neeerwary to insure to the public a sup ply of every article at the most reasonable rate— and, as :he public, in this iastance, were deprived of the betietit of such a competition, he could wish to place them to that situation which would prevent theirs float lying at the mercy of the Water Comanies, who might 110 W end On them to pay woe rate they 'pleased. bedew.' of that, lie tit ght a maximum, ought to be affixed to the supply, beyoud which the %Water Companies should not be still'ered to. proceed —mid also that a reserve, in case of tire. should always Ire ready to check the progress of that devuuroug element. It was notorious, that, about brirell weeks ago, dreadful fire broke out in the Strand, at which se veral liars were loot, in corisequence of the boiler of the I'o.k-buildings Water Company being out of repair, which prevented the water from being turned on. If the House granted a Committee, he hoped mach measures would be taken, as would prevent an occurrence of this kind it: future. The %Voter Companies themselves see the baneful el frets of $111:1111 monopoly, and he could not tun crive that even their friends would oppose the for mation of a Committee up-stairs. Mr. WAttav: the Water Companies were themselves anxious to propose a maximum. The Grand Junction Company, he understood, had no objection whatever, to the principle—on which, in deed, they acted at present. The Petition Kilb then read, and referred to a Committee.

Mr. W. BURRELL rose for the purpose of moving '' for a Select Committee to inquire into the state of the Laws preventing the exportation of Wool." The Hon. Gentleman ons,rved, that whatever ob jections might, a a Cotner pertoil, lie urged against the adoption of - such a ineasuie, the tone was now come when the mainificcturers ought to concede the boon which the agticilltinairbotly bad long looked for, namely, the right of exporting their wool. When manufactairers were in a -rate of rapid ad vancement, he conceived that he had a right to a►k for this favour at their hands. The long wools of Lincolnshire and Leicestershire had sunk iii price, in consequence of the tpiantity of foreign wool im ported—and it was but fair that the growers should Ire allowed every means fur the fair disposal of their property. In 1814 tool 15 no less than 30,700,0001 h% of wool were imported. Last year, undoubtedly, there was nut so large au imporiatinci—but atid it was very considerable. The foreign manufac inter had a very great advantage over the wool grower of this country. He was enabled, in con sequence oh his not bring burdened with pool's rates, to undersell the English grower, anti this account .d for the market being overstocked with foreign wool. There was no other staple cotinnoility of the country placed under such an interdict. Every other ►pecies of produce, either of our colonies, or of I growth, was allowed to he exported-Iml he could see no good reason why the same princi ple should not be extended to wool.
