Laird CASTLEREAGH meant to propose to the Collialittee a vote of a suet to the imlooot - of t h e stipulated Subsidy, and did not intend to go fur ther. • p oh is ot qay understood the Noble Lord did not wean to propoge an Achlress to. the Prince Ltegent, expressing approbation of the Treaty. Lord CASTLERBAQH apprehended such a course would he unusual. M r . I' SONY 8441, as the Noble Lord did not mean to move an Address to the Prince Regent, he wontd now give notice•that it was his inten tion to move one, not of congratulation, but of c ond em n a tion. He should make his motion, on the question for the Speaker's leaving the Chair, for the House to, go into the committee, or on the House being resumed. Mr. CANNING had not teen in the House when th e Right I:lon:Gentleman first rose. lie wished to know *w h et h er it was his intention to take the discussion ()t1 the Speaker's leaving the Chair, or on the :House being resumed, so ay to avoid Ind ting a negative on the supply, lir. po t isoNßY said, he should take the sense of th e House 011 the plt33tioll-0i the Speaker's ieay. jug th e Chair, or On the House bei ng resumed, he had not yet determined which. Ile thought, -however, he should feel disposed to take it on the Muse beinwrestinied. He did ritit Wish to con touod the grant of the subsidy with the policy of the treaty . , 'at he thought- _there was a great dif- , r ei o ice b etwe e n enabling the GOverunient to mac good the engagements they had entered in to, and approving the treaty by which those en gagetieuts woii made. Mr. CAxtioio had not meant to blame the course proposed to he takk:n by the 'tight Hon. Gentleman. He approved of the distinction he had made between gran tin. the subsidy and sane -00:ling the treaty. Lie thought there was a great difference hetwceu the two caws ! Mr. It. Wnao postponed, the consideration of the Ordnance Eitimate4 to OVednesday. Lord CAS - TE.EitnAGII presentird Papers front the Prince Regent, contining the substance of the Convention entered into between the Courts of St. Petei•sburgh ;And Sto,:kbohn eat the 14th Match, 1812, and the Act of itdiesion of his Majesty to that Convention of the 3d of March, 1813, and a!» so an account of the stuns already advanced for the. use of the Swedish troops jowled in Stralsund since March 1813. 'lnc Innkeeper's Bill was read a second time, and committed for to-morrow. On the mot:on of Lord CASTLEIMAGII, the Order of the day \vas reild, for taking into con sideration the remaining 4i3.,eiwintions of the Report of the CuMmittee no • INDIA,AFPAT,II3. The third Resolution was read ; but in conse quence of the absence of ,some Gentlemen, who wished to take part in the debate, the discussion tui it was postponed, and the Committee passed on to the fourth Resolution : Thi3, ivith the fifth, sixth, and z.eventli, were pass.ed, after a few re marks from Mr. Cak.:va which • were answered by Lord CAsTLEitrAort. The Eighth Resolution Was withdrawn by Lord CASTLERrAGII, fur the purpose of bringing fos - ward that which was its Object into a separate Bill. On the Ninth Resolutio», Mr. CaLtivEY took occasion to observe, that the Company had been inthe habit or making a dividend when they had no profits to divide. their last., lease ex- Vred, when they had' no surplus revenue to, make a dividend, they were . in the habit of coming to Parliament and "stating, their ease, as by their Charter they were forbid to make- a &vidend but Out of the surplus of their territorial rave sites, - after paying their' political and Other e.x. pences. _ . . • Lord CASTIX..g,LiAGti did not litlckrlita:ll their dividends ‘vere to be paid out of their territorial revenue, but out of their net proceeds. Those proceeds were more of a cniutneruial than a politi ca! nature, thongh partaking of the character of both. Though the commerce of India bad not been very productive, he was not awale that in any year since the last renewal of their Charter, their funds bad been insufficient to pay their divi dends. !,Jr. CRESVEY said, the House bad formerly been in the habit of coming' to l'arlisfuent the surplus of their territorial tevent';e• not co ver the dividends, anl this practice he wished to see restored. . - Lord CASTLEREAGH said, this resolution went to prevent the territorial revenues of the Corn- parry being applied to conunercial porposes with without the sanction of the Board of Controal, and thtis supplieda corrective to the evil appre hended. The resolution wns carried. The next resolu tion was cat tied without discussion, utter which it tvns priTC)Sed to return to the third resolution. AL. BA.ttruo wished the discussion on this re- Soitt!ion to he postponed to another tiny, on ac chant of the absence of his . Right Houoarable Friend- (Mr. Tieruey) who was kept away by an accident. Lord CASTLEREAGH was sorry he could not agree to this,,but the excessi‘c importance of the sub ject, and the busiuesabefore the House, made it impracticable. Mr. llaetxo then rose to move an amend m ent of the nature of that which his Right ,Honcittrable Friend had intended to propose. His 'wish was, that in opening the trade, they should proceed gradually, so that they might feel their way us they went. Acting thus, he thought many of the evils to be apprehended from the sodden opening of the trade to ludia, might be avoided. That which he should propose was, that for a certain period ships sailing from any port in the country should he confined to'return to the port of Lon don. This' he proposed, nut front a wish to. con fine the import trade to the port of London, but from an idea that such a regulatittp, would be of general utility. He thought it would be the in terest of rhe merchants to do that which he wish ed them to be forced to do. He wished thew to be enabled to make the experiment of trtiding to India, without exposing themselves to all the risks which those; who were of opinion, their , ideas of Carrying on a profitable trade Were delusive, thought they must be exposed to if the present se-. strictiona were at once removed. If this amend-. ment were agreed to, the experiment could kie, made atthe least possible risk, and private mer chants could go to India, and ascertain if the trade were worth carrying on, without being exposed to that ruin which might await them if, in the first instance, they were encouraged to form expen sive establishments, while the result of the specu lation was doubtful. Th ose who, on the prestimp,. tion that the India trade would continue to be ear riad on as it Intd been the p o li cy o f two centuries to carry it on, bed t'er'med large and expensive establishments in the port of London, might have tinie to dispose of their property if this suggestion were adopted, and thos;: 7 . who !night otherwise be rained by the shock, could thus, if tiole wor t i given, he let down etsy. He trusted 'the Honse .would feel that the hest' plait they coald'edopt 1, 114.0' that of pursuing a Middle cour.e., which could riously injure no cle3s of persons, andl which, it were only on 'account ()fits conciliattiry nature,. had a Claim to their approbation. He .eonel o rted by moving an a -mendment, the purport of which wan l to testi ict the imperts from ludia to the port. of London for five years. • Mr. P. GRENPLLL seconded the amendment. cm the grond that it w e s calculated for the better seetivite of th e r e v e u ee , and because he deemed u it exped;cnt that ford: , ;oevi should rather be coo fined to o= e place Viau twAttere.:l over the country.. Sir J . NEWPoST oppurcit the uwencnent, whlch if agreed to, would indeed render this an experi i Meat of delusion,.as it had been called, entliou iii the ruia of those who embarked in it. lie °refer red tii - proceedings in Ireland in 1797, and front the opinion then expressed by the merchants of Dub lin, Co!.lc, Belfast, &c. contended that they were unanimously of opinion that such a measttre ai this would be entirely destructive of any benefit they might expect from opening the trade. It was said that it would he for the advantage of the traders of the out-ports to come with their ima ports hiLondoo----to this he answered, if it were so, leave to the merchants their own election ; they will certainly go Where their interest is best consulted. fie closed his observations by stating, that in his opinion the 'out-ports had already con ceded too much in this arrangement ; and if the present proposition was acceded to, the nteaaure would be altogether worthless to them. Mr. FINLAV reminded the House, ,that all that was required by the Out-ports, was what America and other foreign powers already enjoyed without injury to the Company, and therefore 'it was ab surd to argue that appr e h ens ion s were entertained of danger front granting that to our .own Merchants which was sharad by foreigners.' He denied that the opening of the trade could be considered as matter of experiment, and by a reference to they evidence before the Committee, sheaved that it was the opinion of the best informed, that so far from there being any ehinger, the measure ikttuld be attended by great advantages. Such wititesses as spoke of peril from this source it in answer to questions which related to au iinaginary state of things, and not to the real situation in which they Would be placed by the [Pleasure before Par liament: They talked of immense crowds Living at liberty to inundate India, while iu fact what was iieended would limit the nuitiber to a very few, and bind them in, under strict regulations, so as to do a way all dread from the cause suppnNed. He would ask what was the nature of the amend ment ? It said, I W:11 allow you to carry on the trade, but it shall be in a that O h ath make it, disadvantageo u s to 'yourself; for no mail could ' cmne to London with his goods to advantage, and have Ilia vessel to bring round again, for loading. to an out-port. It was absurd then to talk of a trade, Wiien front being compelled to return to one port at a distance front the merchant and exporter, it must be coniitted to one voyage. The .proposition was such as to render the ,offer wig: nary and fallacious. He ridicalert the idea of thia port of London being injured by the 'tennis siou of importation to the out-ports, and, on th e contrary, urged that its interests would b e improv .. eel in ten years in. consequence Of opening the :trade. With regard to the re,entle, he asserted that it : was more correctly collected in the out ports than in Loa don ; but at all events the employed on this head would go to exclude the out-ports from the imports of rums, sugars, and all other commodities which paid duty ; an extent to which he did not believe Hon. Gentlemen meant to go. He gave the Company credit for moderation and liberality, insomuch that he did not think they woold ever exert their cunt rota to interfere with private metehants proSectiting any commerce which the Jegislattrre might bestow ,upon them its a right. Mr. PROTKEROE ironically complimented the Hon. 111cver on the care he toolcor' the interests of the. trailers of the out-ports, by wishing to !t -alk there for their own welhwe to bring their ilia.' ports to Loudon ; but as he appeared this night' as the Representative of at Hight Hon. Gouda• man who was the warmest advocate for the Company, the out-ports would apply to him the Tlineu Dana 6 et Bona ferentes. In his judgment, Government and the out-ports bad conceded too much to the Company, which concessions, bazi they been met by n corre sponiEng spirit, • Would long since have led to a conciliatory settlement. Mr. 4. TItOIINTON protested .against the mea sure altogether, and only supported the amend ment as better than the danger and injury of the original proposition. In answer 'to an Hon. Mem:ler (Mr. - Finlay), who had asked them to pia the out-ports on the same footing with An te . rica, he said that it was not in the power of the House to make them neutrals, or confer upon them neutral rights. The delusion of the out ports, in desiring this trade, had justly become prOcerbial, and when they said they were very Willing to meet tins ruin, it Only reminded hint of the childish song to the wagtail of Dilly, dilly, come and tre killed. As if the silly bird would agree to the invitation. He insisted at some length upon this topic, anti expressed his conviction that the experiment would lead to the utter loss of those who were so auxion3 to nuke it. Were their wish es acce d e d to, the put-ports would soon be scrambling among themselves; and clamour, as 'now, would gain the. ascendancy to ono or other of them. Bat if the question Was to be determined in this way, by clamour, they had better giVe tine eras eir,i:lie)rgtenstv,,thtt) Billingsgate at once—as all, the catl to' one point,fur own,o 811:1)eint don,it'l6l°e! g4tt.oi t e t t i l l i a e e d v i b i a l e i l ? t o t a *fi r g t t e s s ( o ) i ! i f b the w e t l; l r e o ut osould. the whole Empire, Mr. Fmrdvi explained. ;Nir. float, after the most mature deliberation ,and iliquiry, thought the best thing the India; Company could ilti tvat to acquiesce in the at• , rangements which had been proposed.
