Hada. • JOHN OGLE. Lord Poutsvotce,ptirsuZtto the notice he for merly gave, rose for the purpose of making a mo tion relative to the above gentleman. In doing so, be observed, that upon such au occasion, if lie made no statement at all. it would be said he had laid no Parliamentary grounds to induce the House to agree to wheelie should propose; and if, upon the other ha nd , he did so, it might be said that he threw out insinuations iiipirious to an in dividual. He could assure the House he should merely state what he knew, as a ground to induce the. House to order the production of documents to prove what he said to be true. Ile understood that Colonel Ogle had a letter of service for raisin?: men for the army in 1800 or 1801, and li;s accounts were passed, but the claim he made was not satis fied. A person of the name of Reid, who had ad vanced a stun of money for the purpose of this levy, and had not been repaid by Government, as it appeared from the Returns made to the War Office that Colonel Ogle had been guilty of fraudu- I lent trieriartions as to his accounts; for insance, he had stated false dates of the enlistments of the soldiers, arid had given in receipts for passing his accounts which were actually forged. The Attor ney-General had been ordered to prosecute hind, and Colonel Ogle !deeded not guilty ; but that plea was afterwards withdrawn, and he was con victed un leo'. No further ate,* had been adopt eil against I , nor had he ever been brought up to receive judgmeut—bot there the matter rested. Under these circumstances, be begged leave to move for a Copy of the Information filed by the Attoriter-General, in the Court of King's Bench, against John Ogle, Esq. 1,1 1800, or 1801, and all legal proceedings austituted thereon. Mr. YoRK v. stated, that the matter alluded to fell under his cognisance when he wits Secretary at %Var. He was not at presentin fall poieession of the facts, but should afterwards make farther in to satisfy the House to the. propriety of the motives which induced Government not to pro ceed to . juilgutesit against that helividital. He be lieved it would appear from the siecouills, that %Ir. Ogle had paid certain penulties, which induced lenient ine.ssures to be adopted. Ile had no ob jection to agree to tine emotion of the Noble Lord. Mr. Pence AL did not ohjeet to the motion, Id though he thought it enueressary, as it would be found that Mr. 04Ie had entered mete some en gagements to indemnify the public for the losses that had been sustained.
