Gentleman in tended, in the production of these papers, to bring the case of Mr. White before the House, he should oppose the present motion. lle (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) knew nothing . at all of the case ;- he had no partiality one way or the other ; but if the House undertook to decide on all questions of this sort, it would be impossible for the heads of departments to execute their functions. . < Mr. CALCRAFT knew nothing of the case of Mr. White. —lt would certainly be ridiculous to propose that the House should generally take upon itself to enquire into the circum stances under which individuals were dismissed. But that would be very different front the question before them. Here was a special case where abuse was complained of, and in such a case an individual had a right to come to the Rouse of Com mons for redress. The Right lion. Gentleman forgot where he stood when he indulged in remarks like those which he had offered. In a case where an individual was aggrieved it was the duty of that House to interfere, and knowing nothing of Mr. White, he felt it right, as a Member of Parliament, to meet the doctrine of the Chancellor of the Exchequer with de- HOUSE OF LORDS, APRIL so.

On the motion of Sir JOIIN NEWPORT, it was ordered that Sir Abraham Bradley king and Mr. William Stoker should attend the House on Monday next. - CASE OF MR. WHITE. Mr. HUME moved that there should be laid before the House copies of all correspondence which had taken place betw e en the Board of Taxes and Mr. George White respecting certain frauds in the collection of the Assessed Texts, and . practices contrary to the Act of Parliatuent, and also for copies of ail letters which had pa'ssed, relative to the suspension and dis. missal 0f.411r. White, with those of Mr. %V hits and Mr. Saville on that subject. The CHANCELLOR of the EQ TIER said, if she tin_ derstood the motion, it was he object of the lion. Gentleman, in the first instances to obtain certain papers respecting frauds charged to have occurred' in the collection ot the revenue in the particular district where Mf: White had acted. He (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) had DO particifiar objection,to grant these papers; but if the lion. Gentleman meant to call in question the propriety of dismissing Mr. 'White, he should retest the motion on this principle, that if the House took upon ' itself o decide whether the officers of a particular department should or should not discharge those under theM, the heads of such departments would have ne centruml over their inferiors in vial and reprobation. • Mr. Secretary CANNING said, the first part of the motion of the Hon. Gentleman referred to an • alleged act of nialveitia tion. To the production of the papers connected with this subject there could be no objection. To the second part of it, *Which called for :copies of all -eorrespondence-with , 4ho) l 94a, of Taxes, relative to the rase of Mr. \White, he should not tib. jeet, unless it were intended to throw suspicion on the conduct, of those who had dismissed that Gentleman. The correspond ence being produced respecting the frauds charged to have been committed, a ease might thereafter arise out of these papers which would demand enquiry. But moving for the twit sets of papers at once. the Hon. Gentleman, in effect, assumed that such a case had already been made out, and that an indiVidual had been injured. Ile.should concur with the first part of the motion, for the preduction , of papers relative to the imputed malversation,' • and that = being established, the qoestion would arise whether or not they ought to go further. Mr. HUME said, when the first part of the motion had been disposed of, he would explain to the House why he thought they ought to go further - into the case. The question was then put on the first part of the motion, ceiling: for Papers relative . . to frauds in the collection of the Revenue, and carried. Mr. HUME then rose to move for the Papers relative to Mr. White. He wanted the letters which he called for to prove that an inferior officer had been punished for a supposed breach of the law, while a superior officer, against whom an actually proved breach of the law appeared, escaped punishment. It was therefore that he wished to bring the conduct of Mr. White and Air. Saville. before the House. • lie first complained that Mr. White had been dismissed without just, grounds for such dis missal, and without inquiry.; and he accused whit parties of a dereliction of their duty who were connected this trans action. He proposed to show that 20004 of the money paid for the land tax had been improperly appropriated, being expended in dinners and in various ways for the benefit of those engaged in the collection of it, in direct-opposition to the Act of l'arlia- Ment. The house would see that there were grounds for their interference, as more money.had been. taken front the people,' than the Commissioners were authorised by law to raise. Ile was convinced that 300,0001. a year more titan were authorised by of Parliament, had been raised from the country by' means of the fraud be had pointed out. Ile thought that he had made out a clear case from official papers for imtirY. The .Hon. Member concluded by moving for Copies of all Corres pondence between Mr. Whiteand the Board of. Taxes relative to the dismissal of thatintlividual. • The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER explained.— He did not object to the motion. - • The motion was then carried. • On the Motion of the same lion.. Member, Copies were or dered of all Correspondence with the Boards of Taxes relative to Joseph Hart and the malversation in the Kensington Divi sion of 'faxes. CASH PAYMENTS. On the Motion of Mr. BENNET, the notice relative to the Resumption of Clish Payments, Made by nn lion. Friend of his, was postponed from the 14th of May to the 3d of June. ADJOURNED DEBATE ON TfIE LATE NEGO CIATIONS. On the motion of Mr. Secretary Calerefwee, the Order of the Day for resuming the adjourned Debate was read. The SPEAKru having read the motion, WOOLRIDGE WHITMORE rose tp explain his reasons for voting in favour of the Address propOstel upon his aide of the House. Ile confessed it was with pain he declared that he had looked in vain throughout the papers of this nego. elation, for that expression of manly English indignation which the atrocious invasion of Spain was caleulated to excite in all feeling breasts. lie thought that by all that appeared in these papers, the Right Hon. Gentlemen opposite had placed them sake in the unfortunate situation of appearing as the Allies of Franee._(llear !)—France had done nothing which in some mitt or other of the papers an excuse had not been found fdr. In the first place, there was the Army of Observation, for which it would be found we had furnished an explanetion:' It might be a just and true one, btu why, be would ask, had we pointeViat out.? Why should it have come from the mouth of the atish Minister?. France, he-thought, would have found it. ditticult in the first instance, to find an excuse for conduct which on all hands it seemed to be admitted, struck at the root of liberty. But here again our Ministers had helped them out of the dilemma, by ,suggesting that there might he something in the special. situation or France to call for the course about to be adopted by her, and the reach mess with which she echoed the suggestion proved how va luable it was to her. All that she had been able to advance that he knew of timelier to the soil and situation of France wan, that the consumption of mules would be less than it hail been.—(flear and laughter.)—Then came the fling of France's speech ; and he should have thought that document too plain to be misunderstood ; but here again the ingenuity of the English Minister had baled ordinary calculation, for he found out that it bore a conditional meaning, totally differing from what plain common sense would have put Upon it. The letter of M. de Chateaubriand, received the 27th January, stated that Me le - Comte de la Garde bad been instructed to commu nicate to Sir William A'Court, that " his Most Christian Ma jesty demands that his Catholic Majesty should ; of himself, and by: his own authoritye apply the necessary modifications to the institutions which have been imposed upon the Crown of Spain by the revolt of a few soldiers." The answer of the Right Hon. Gentleman appeared to be as follows : " Vt'e disclaim for ourselves, and deny to other Powers, the right or requiring any changes in the intermit institution of independent 'states, with the menace of hostile attack in case of refusal. The moderation of such demands in ,no degree justifies, in our eyes, such a mode of enforcing them; and this distinction it is the more important to keep steadily in view, and to impress upon the • French Government, at a moment when, for their sake and at their desire, we are suggesting to Spain, in a tone of friendly counsel, alterations similar to those which France is proposing as the alternative of hostili ties." Taking this answer m connection with previous con duct to language he (Mr. W.) must say that it placed this Government in a situation the most unfortunate—for it made it: appear that they wished to further the views of France.; and all the circumstances connected, it required one to have that con fidence which he had in the honour of his Majesty's Ministers, not to tel convinced that they favoured in their hearts the cause of France in. preference .to that of Spiin. fie would offer'a' few words before he sat dawn, respecting the Holy Alliance, which he thought more necessary on ltix part from his having once given his vote to Government on the case of Naples.

Nothing would avert the violation Of our own territory but that tone. lie was therefore anxious that the question should have a fair hearing. The House was not then called upon to decide upon the question of peace and war. If it had been, however he might deprecate the conduct of the aggressor, he should feel it necessary,, in, the present state of things, to vote against war. The question was, Whe ther, in the late negociation, the feelings of the country had been expressed in language sufficiently. strong and animated ; and if not, whether that House would: not now come forward to ase some that tone which could alone give satisfaction to the coun. try, anti in which lin Ministers having failed, it was the more imperative in them now to do. He was thoroughly persuaded that this country was in a situation to go to war, if necessary i • but the distress which had prevailed, and the necessity which existed of establishing a new balance for trade, rendered it pal. liable that peace was our choice. If, however, forced, either for the purpose of stopping the expansion of the smthnents of the Allies, or for any other adequate cause, there was, he was convinced, a spirit in England, and resources sufficient, to carry her triumphant throughout any struggle in which she ntigh ten •age.—(l I car, hear !) ItISBROWL- addressed tin. Chair, 1.01,1; 13 a tone of voice scarcely audible in the gallery. We understood 14m.-to. contend that the language of the British Diplomatists in the late negociation was throughout consistent with the end the British i'llinistry had in view, and in which they were ap plauded by most of the lionellembers Opposite, who had de clared their sentiments. In a confidential note front the pen of the late Marquis of Londonderry, which did honour both uk his heart and head, the policy of this country was distinctly laid down to be that of non-interference. At the COngreas of Verona the Duke of Wellington was instructed to declare, " that come what may, this country will not be a party to any interference with Spain." Nothing could be inure intelligible than this, and nothing, as he thought, was required stronger. If we disdained interference on one side, how, :could those who instilled our doing so contend for our interfering on the other ? We had remonstrated, beyond which nothtng remained but to menace ; and if not prepared to make goeit our menace it could not be contended that we ought to have assumed such a tone. The Honourable Member for West. minster was the only one as yet who had advocated war.—lf they were to make war then on an abstract principle, lie asked what that principle was ? lf, as the Ally of Spain, he asked, of which part of Spain, for it was admitted that she was internally , divided ? On one side the Hon. Member put ail the sense and honesty, and on the other all the fools and knaves; but that was a sort of division that all persons could not assent to. Ile should like to know whether that Honourable Mem her had ever heard the opinion of Count Torrano, one of the strongest of the Spanish Liberals, on the subject of the divi;. sion of parties in this country.. That Nobleman had stated, that his party was the smaller, but it was so much more active than the other that it must on that account succeed. The lion. Gentleman, after some further observations, which were inau dible to us, concluded by declaring his intention to vote for the amendment. _ _ - Captain MABERLEY thought that his Majesity's Ministers had little consulted the eventual interests of the country, and that by their negociation they had placed us much nearer to war than we should have been if they had condected it other. wise. He viewed with shame and disgust that part of the papers which shewed that the strongest language used by the Duke of NVellington at Verona was, that " this country would not become a party" to the nefarious scheme in agitation. Every man who looked at the state of this country could nut fail to conclude that it was our interest% keep out of hostilities which Might lead to a situation front which we might not be' able to rescue ourselves. But when the Right lion. Gentleman opposite deprecated so much as he said he did the aggression of France upon Spain, it au surprise him that he had taken no more decided part than to limit himself to the good offices of his 111aiesty to " allay the irritation" melted by the menace of the French. Such he was convinced use.'. the fear France had of this country, that stronger language on our part would, he was convinced, have deferred the meditated aggression. If it were not from fear of us, how came it that France had treated Portugal in so ditlerent a menial than what she had observed to spays ! It wits the Contoitution of Spain that excited her hostility. The answer or, sp:tin to the de. mantis of France might have been, that she had adopted a Constitution which had been guaranteed to her by Ruseei and by England. Hut Portugal made a totally new change , --she did not revert, as in the case of Spain, ion state of things which hail before existed, and received the. ecknoaletiennenta and approbation of other Powers. But although she had not done this, she was shielded by the inthienee and force of England.—( Hear, hear !)-It was true the Duke of Wellington had a right, from his connexion with Spain,. to proffer his good offices ; but as that country was situated at that precise ume, it appeared more like a menace than any thing else. It was re (IWO of Spain that she should continue an tipper Chamber ; but there was no Upper Chamber in the Constitution of 11112, to which site had reverted, and the time had not yet arrived for making any modifications in the Conetitution.—(llear, liter !)—The Ministers having failed ut Vernon, had another .Opportunity to arrange the matter after the King's speech at Paris. He (Captain Maberley) happened to be ut Paris at that time, and he knew that the public was: then the ruling Vparty in the State; and had the Ministers of England laid Abe Arerona papers on tho table of that House, at that period, 'such a feeling might have been excited in the two countries,- would have made France pause. As to negotiation after that speech, every one who knew any thing of the matter, knew that war was irrinnusibly decided twin without 'the possibility of retreat.—(Hear, hear !)--To imagine that laying the papers on the table of that House, would have had the effect of papers the war, was absurd. Every one who was at all ac quainted with the present ruling party in France, knew that they were struggling for their loot rights, and everyone knew that they could not regain them without having an army in their favour. That party was of opinion, that when once the army had fought and bled in a cause to which it was pledged—when once it had tin opportunity of beatowing honours, promotions, and rewards to the retainers; they could rely upon its support to crush the few remains of liberty,---(Bear, hear !)_lt was ynt possible to be ignorant that that party was engaged in a con test to regain its feudal rights, its forfeited titles anti Motet -- (Heer I)—Was there any one who had paid attention to What , had been passing in that country for the last two years, and dill not know this ? Did any ono doubt it who had witnessed the Law of elections, placing the power entirely in the halals of the Government. The law of the Press, the most inonstrit.us and undefined ever passed by . any Legislature, which after declaring that an attack on the inviolability of the Kin should be panitilted, went on to . declare that an attack upon the rights of his birth, in virtue of which he had granted the charter, should be punished. Was there any one who raw these, and the transfer of the power of juries into the irresponsible hands of judgoi, and slid not see in them an attack upon liberty and every liberal institution ?—(Hear, hear 1)—If the Spaniards did not succeed, they must look to the accumulation of Rus sian and Austrian bayonets in different points in Europe, pre pared to carry destniction to liberty at the point of the bayonet through the passes of the Pyrenees as the cause of it. It was at least cheering to see that all the respectable men in the country were abandoning their property to the invaders, in favour of some more secure retreat. But if they were uneuc ceesful, it would be time for the country to look to its own Constitution, which he was convinced would be atterked when ever the great tyrants should feel that they tiered to attempt it. In conclusion he begged to say that he should vote for the Ad, dress, because he thought his Majesty's Ministers had tot car 4. ried this country through the late negoeiatien with that dignity which was tine to the trin. Although they had conducted the country to peace, it was not a durable peace,—(lieer !) Mr. Cilit.W.EN soil, that were he to attend to the sugges. times of his own feelings, or of thine of the whole comitry, he should certainly incline to that aide of the question *iii h he thought Would in fact be to betray the best interests of the country.
