Gentleman, 'root to •monow till to-morrow sc'smight. Sir T. TURTON rose to move for accounts of the Regan- Army, according Id the latest retprns, dis tiophing the dumber of infantry and cavalry. 'llse CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER objected to the motion, an I.afier a few words from the Hon. I;llrortes, and Mr. CALCIIAFT, the tormer consented to drop the sobjed. Mr. WAITEREAD gave notive t,Fat he would more to-morrow for the postponement of the Election on o;, the Wootton Basset Petition; which stood for Tuesday. EV!, :-.144`.-WT,V4I7# AMERICAN MERCHANTS. Mr. LOCKHART prefaced the motion of which he had given notice tor referring the Petition of the suf fering American Mercliants to a Committee, by a history of their cl,iitns, which the noise of the 'no mt_int would not allow us to hear. A!; wt•il as we could umierstand the Hon.Gentient.m, lie stand that tile Pelitioners Itid, at a very disonl period, &Avg. to- an iirtakeitsty , aillOUilL due to them iintfric3, for which, in consequence of an aepheation on their part to the British Government, ano a remonstrance on the port of the British Government to .that of Amerca, the American Government consented, by an article in the Treaty of Commerce, to rend , r themselves responsible. In 1784, four Commis s!oners were appainted to investigate he nature of • these debts, but after silting ten years they were unable to make an award, as it always happened that when a point was pressed on the American Commissioners, they retired, and would not return onieei a promise were oracle them that that point should hfaeandoned. A , ,;ain• creditors remoh steited ; and at 1802, eig!'lt years after the .termt oar ion of . the ,ominission, a •cutivention %v•Fi formed net ween the British and American &Ater nmen•s, by which the former agreed to aceept' trout t h e lat ter 600,0091. in lieu-of all the dents for 'which 'Ame rica had - before rendered herself responsible . by treaty. He was instruaed to that had th e Commissioners whom he had before mentioned, pursued their labours to successful termination, they would, in all probability, have awarded (too millions as the w hole amount of that class of debts 16 which their investigation was direeled. The cre ditors contended that they had a, right to the full amount of their debts, guaranteed as they had been to them by the American Government ; and that if Government, for good and • sufficient reasons no doubt, thought proper to coinnuAte their claims, Government was bound to make good the defi ciency, and not to sacrifice their individual iyiterest to •the public advantage. There had been many cases (and the:Hon; Gentleman instanced them) in which when the State gave up the rights crf any of ifs citizens in its negociations with other States, -it had afterwards felt itself bound to indemnify those citizens from the consequences of 'the surrender. But it i - nght 'be asked, - why had not the petit ioeers made an earlier appiication ? The fat was, that, in the 43d ear rat the King, a Board of Commissioners was appointed to .inquire'to whom the 60Q,0001. oboined from the American GoVernment was to be distributed. After a very laborious investigation, the lapse of so many years, rendering it ditticull for many individual, to establish their claims, it appeu - - ed to tills B mard that no less than 1,420;0001. w:is due to the class of creditors 14 petting whom it had been, appointed to inquire. - el the loss of the dif sfetence ; between this sum and 600,000.1 time Peii ! , boners Complained, and this loss, they contented, ought to be made good to them by the country.-- They had availed themselves of the first opportunity of submitting to the House their grievance, and ire now moved for a Committee, not by any means to consider the justice of the claims of the Petitioners, but simply to inquire into the .facts, a rc4 o lay those tects upon the table of the House. He treier stood ',that it was not likely the motion would be opposed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHECLVER, in agreeing to refer the petition to a Committee, begged it to be distinctly understood, that his concnrience in the motion was not occasioned by any impression on his mind, that the case of the claimants was sucleaas tar call on the House to discharge the debt oriOa iy due to them in the American States. - lie VI as fluent:el Uut to withhold the consent of the Crux
