Gentleman supposed could arise frail •sech aniinadvenion;, and tiler lan guage .to an All\- of this country. Whatever the House or the Ministers might think of the conduct of the Spanish Government, nothing that they could- say or .do., could prevent the Sovereign of an independent country from governing. his own dominions as he pleased. No men could deplore the conduct of the Spanish Government more than his Majesty's Ministers did ; but when Gentlemen asserted, that the King of Spain and his Ministers stood alone in that country, that the people were inimical to King Ferdinand, and disapproved oh his conduct in annulling the Cortes, he assured them that they were entirely mistaken ; and it was important that he should, by stating - a few historical facts, set them right upon that subject; he begged, however, in so doing, to guard him self trate, the supposition, that he, or any of hi 3 Majesty's - 11:linisters, appr ove d o f t h e con d uct which he was about to describe; for he assured the house, that if ever the time should come when the whole of the conduct of his Majesty's Minis ters, of our Ambassador in Spain, and of the Commander in Chief in that country, could be made public, it would appear that nothing !not. hew . ] left undone that could be done by advice or remonstrance, to prevent those events which every one mast deplore. But the Hon. Gentle man should not run away with the opinion, that there was but one sentiment in Spain respecting the Spanish Government. Upon the return of the King of Spain to his dominions, he went to Valencia, and the Hon. Mover had exprAsed ills refire; that the British a , k , hassador, Sir Heury Wellesley, had gone thither to meet the King. The lion. Gentleman had not indeed blamed that conduct, but he had lamented it. The Hon. Gent., however, should recollect, that Sir H. Wellesley was- sent as Ambassador to King Ferdinand, in whose name the Cortes and the Regency carried 'On the Government, and that therefore when the King returned to his dominions, it was the duty Of the British Ambassador to pay his respects to the Sovereign to whom he was accredited. l3ht, when the King arrived at Valencia, he was met by the General Officers of his Army, and by a great variety of other persons, who all implored him to put au end to the then existing. Govern ment, and to remove the Cortes. Throughout the %%do& of-ids journey he heard .notching hut the same language of detestation at the Govern ment of the Regency aud the Cortes. He re gretted very much that such shoold be the case, n, but the fact was so. The King arrived at Aran juez on the 4th May : on the 11th he issued his proclamation for annulling- the old Government, and on that day a part of the Members of the Cortes were put in prison. What followed ? On the 14th, the King set out for Madrid. Upon that occasion, the whole population or the. country assembled ; they took the mules from his cite riage, and he was drawn froloAranjuez. to leis capital„ amidst the enthusiastic aechunatiov s of . the largest assemblage of the people thateha- t ever been known in Spain. If, therefore, Getedeineu thought that the conduct of the King' in removing eat... Cortes it'ns unpopular Spain, 'they wer e eomoletely mistaken. Ile willed tint , _ the people of Span felt as the peoPle of England ; but it stiould be recollected, that as the ).utter would not suffer any foreign nation to interfere: With their in ternal government, so, on the other i:and, it was rather too much for them to say., that they had a right to. dictate to another people what sort of Government they shoedd have, an to revic them because they did not think and feel lih,e." EnOishmen. He lama Cited therefore, he rePeat"cd, that Gentlemen thour e ht it right to animedvert iii such strong terms lipon the Spanish Government ; . it could answer no good end, and might tend t(i . shake our alliance with that Government—(Hear, hear 1 ou the Opposition side of the House).-• He begged tieutlemen to consider that, it, was no Uninipi.tlint matter whether Spain. was Oro kill into ouT seale or into any other. The Honourable Gentleman had also said, that there were imputa ; tip r is. against us for our conduct to New as well m ; to Old -Spain e. hot.shrely nothing could justify. Great Britain, being in alliance-with Spain, to in 7 tgrfere between 'le mother country and heicolo nies, more than we had done in'the tinge of the Cortes ) , when we .ofered o'rir mediation, which . was unfortunately not accepted, The HorMrable. Gentleman had'illso men:ioned the Duke of We!j . Hag ton ; he hail, iroked Mentioned him a's he' al ways did, in a manner that must be gratifying to every one who felt au affection for that noble person ; hut the Holt. Gentleman seemed sur prized that the. e Noble Duke, whO had received) his hOrours and faVonrs from the Cortes, should have again received them from thcKing ; but the Geutlentan shOuld recollect, that these ho nours were conferred in the name of the King, and therefore it was natural that the King should Confirm the honours which had been granted in:his name: He was ashamed to have taken pp so uniclrot • the' titne of the House upon this part of the subject. The nonourable Gentleman who broCight'forward thigtnotioil, and tile Right Honourable•and.Learn ed Gentleman Who spoke last, differed essentially from each other' in their views of this subject.— . • The former (as he bad before stated) Was of ,opi nion that General. Smith' and Sir James Duff had already been. sufficiently punished, and had only. moved -this Address to mark - more strongly the sense of, the House upon this transaction ; the latterthonght the conduct of General Smith cptite atrocious : he disbelieved the statement of the Genehal respecting the 'entrance of theSe persons into the 'garrison sinder false names. Upon that point 'he chose rather to give 'credit to M. Polg•- blanch, notwithstanding the statement of - Mr. Stedman,' who, when he wrote the letter before the House,. could never suppose that this sobj - ect Would he made public. The Learned Gentle Man even thought that the conduct of Gen. Smith shOuld be made the subject of military enquiry. This Was not the opinion of the Hon. Gent. who brought forward this question. There was not one tiord to that effect, either in his speech or.in the A‘k, dress. Another point upon which those two lion' . Gentlemen were quite at variancewith each-other) was the Convention entered itato in 1794. The former thought this Goievention illegal'; the latter said that it was quite conformable- to the Law of Nations. In his (Mr. Pole's) :-opi nion, the Convention went rather Itkither Than was strictly warranted by the law of nations.--- But to revert to the case of General Smith, what were the facts before the House,. Here was a General Officer placed unexpectedly in the tem porary command of a garrison of a peculiar tie scription, called upon suddenly to decide upon this..case; he knew of the Convention formerly agreed nporl, and had stated that it had I:cep acted upon : tinder these circumstances, surely some al lowance should be nude for an Officer so eireuni stanced, if he erred in his judgment ; for no mini could think that he meant to act wrong—what motive, what temptation bad he so to do Under these circumstances, he for one - would not consent to punish hint more than he was already punished by the letter of Lord Bathurst, which, to an Of ficer of General Smith's rank, must be consideted as a severe censure, and a serious misfortune.— The same principle applied to the case of Sir James Duff; but that part of the ease had been so fully argued by his Hon. Friend (Mr. Goulburn), that it was not necessary for him to enlarge upon the subject. It appeared; that. Sir James Duff thought it his duty to apprize the Governor of Gi braltar, that persons had gone to that garrison who were• of suspicious character; he did not ad vise the Governor to apprehend or to deliver them up, but merely to apprize him of the fact. Was there then any thing in this conduct to draw.down such severe censure upon a man above eighty year', of age, and who was grown grey in the service of his country--.•a man who had passed a public life Of near 50 years, without the slightest stain or 1 )611iSil upon his character. He had lived near 40 years in Cadiz,. where no Man was ev e r m o re heloved—he was called the Fat-her of the City— where he had exhausted. h.is fortune-by acts of liberality. He knew that the present Ambassador in Spain entertained the highest opinion of Sir Jabites Duff, and so did his predecessor, whom he had seen that morning. The hearted Gentleman had admitted the high character of Sir. James Duff, but he had arg..ed ttr,on. it in the most ex traordinary manner. His proposition was this : Sir. James Duff has, through a long life, pre served a most Imblettuished character—he has C o l2)lllitted an error, therefore punish him se verely; and why ? Because he could bear it.— Surely the Hon. Gentleman must know, that in proportion as a matt's character was high, in the same proportion was his sensibility to any thing iil.7e censure. Was it justice, was it humanity to treat au old and faithful servant of the public in such a manner ? \Vas it in the Law of Nations that the 'Learned Gentleman acquired this extra ordinary principle of punishing men according to the excellence of their conduct ? Upon the whole, thong It he coold. not justify the conduct of Gene ral Smith, and wished that the letter of Sir ;fames 11. tiff had not been written, yet, as he thought they had already been sufficiently punished, lie shonlA vote against the motion. ADDiree. T o N vindicated hi, Maies ty's Government, and particularly his Noble 'Re lative, Lord Sidliti'ntl). Mr. Alderman Su.ern was glad that the Mem ber for B.ylforthhire had brought forward the A,!- dress, as it might presvent any thiug of the nature . coniplitined Of from happening its future. Mr. DOMINECK BROWN said, if the Address had been much inure severe, it should have his most decided support,, Mr. Hotts . re, in a long 'speech, supported the argumeuts already adduced. by Mr. Whitbread, and considered it imperative upon the blouse to agree to the Addres s . B.ll.2crutiaT, contended, that notbiiig• was more 'eUtouton Or more jitsf than to consider all the eirennstances of mitigation, and to xletermine nu a private-or a public reprimand, as those cir cionsta,nees appeared to direct. Enough, he thought, had'heett done to satisfy the justice and sinpport - the honour of the country. JouN l`Ceetvrou'r suppir,rted the Address. Mr. W. WYNNE spoke also in favour of it. Mr. IlusKis.;oN thought the manoer in which• the character of-the Sp mist) Sovereign had been that night treated in the House, extremely ill cal-, caditted to give,weight to any sited representations. Thin HOn. Member 'had extremely surprised him when he talked' of the unexampled efforts which had been autt(!e by the Spaaish patriots, when.t,be constant language of his - friends On former oeda sions had been to complain of their apathy, and of the ohssacles which they opposed to the success of the common cause. He would put it, how eVer;to that Learned Gentlernan's taste and good sense, whether' it was hecoiniiig. the conduct of a Legislator, .-91 a Member of ;the British Parlia-, ment, to talk of, ein Allied,Sovereign as a wretch and ustoper.- 7 -(Hear, heard) 'What would haVe been said here, if - in en; : y disCuSsion which had taken place-hi the Cortes,. the Stivereign of this country had been so branded on a question of do mestic policy, as the Sovereign of Spain had been that night ?—(-Icar !), have promoted harmony between the two commies..?
