WHITBRF.AD, alluding to the Pape' u s lately pro:ticed by a Noble Lord (Castlereag D h), cutler! to recapitulate the SW*. ta nee . of the ea l _ *ration on the part of Iris Majesty's Government, respectin g the Sill article of the Ti7caty of Vi enna. That article was declared to be understood as • binding on. the contracting parties, , for the con certing and carrying-into execution such nixasures as miSlit nwst eliectually conduce to the over- ivcration. - It would be doing great Injustice to Lord William Bentinck to suppose that Officer liad been wanting in good faith. The tact was, in no Instance had any pledge given by the Governmeot been violated. The Government of Genoa, after the French were expelled, be came provisional, and instructions were sent to Lord W. Bentinck to explain to the inhabitants that they were not to consider it permanent. The eon•equence of that understanding was, that they bent a Minister to Congress, with instructions as to t terms on which the annexation of tienoa to :73arOinia was to hr effected .. i ^ Y Lord STANTfIun said,. the Noble Earl had en- - •• ileavntredJustifyhithself and _his colleagues against a breach of faith. .Lord Boßitits:GnoN ,defended the conduct cif Li.n-d W. Bentinckotncl observed, that he was ,perFTnaded all that had been done by that Noble •-Lfzi;?was from the. purest motives. Matquis of - LANsDowNE said; he was bound to concur in the resolution of his Noble Friend; His Lordship contended,. at .considerable length, that. the faith . of the country had been • - -broken. Thc Earl of ITArtnourßY replied to the argu ',ltems of the- last Speaker, defended the proceed ings -of C(ln. , ,ress, and slimed from a•Note ad dressed to Count Woeonzow, by Mr: Pitt, in 1805, that the cession of Genoa to Sardinia, was • in conformity with the views of that great States man. - Lord ST. Joutt supported the motion. Lord GRENVILLE supported the resolutions on three ground,; first, because he thought authori ty had beet( given Lord Wm. Benttnck to make promises to the peoplt of Genoa ; secondly, that such promises were made ; and thirdly, because the promises were.. acted on.- The Noble Bsron dep - recate , l the power aSsuirtcd by Lord Castle reagh at the Congress, as bci4g unconstitutiooal,. and contrary to the, Old Statutes, which provide that it it a crime to appniach Royal power. lie considered the conduct of the British Minister at , the Congress that approach to Royal power which the Statute provider! against. The Earl of WEsTmonELAND defended the melt. , 'sure of sending Lord Castlereagh to the Congress, and contended, the case of Genoa was not different Irom that of any othereonquered country. Earl GREY observed, that ail - that had fallen from the Noble Earl went to prove, that Lord W. Bentinck had no authority to call upon the • Genoese to assert their ri g hts : but, on the con trary, he (Earl Grey) maintained that Lord W. 13ewhich's conduct in issuing the proehtmation the instr uc ti ons o f t h e was perfectlyjustified hy Executive Government at home. He, had h ear d that Alexandria, in Italy; bad been given to Austria—(Lord Liverpool signified this was not the fact)—but he ;vas glad to hear the Noble Earl deny it. It would - be better for Genoa to be independent, than joined to Piedmont. The principle of a repattitiou of military riii.rer, as it was called, tvonld be proved.to he a very er roneous one. Genoa formed one of the strongest barriers against France, and therefore little could be said for the argument, - that the British Minis ter had been supported in what he had done by , whet- Ministers, particularly by Prince Benevento, for the King of France. To place Genoa in its rj,cese nt Would be to wrest it from it. • 'The Earl of Livr.Rpoot. answered the several objections urged against Miusters upon this sub , ject.. tie denied .chat the Proclamation of Lord Bentinck jostitied the construction that had been put upon it; but even allowing, for the mo , them, that it did, it was - a conditional Offer made to the Genoese, the terms of which .they had not and therefore it conic! not he; binding upon the party that made it. It had been said that Mr. Pitt would not hate dealt so by (enoa ; but that Genoa was entitkd to nothing mare than shalt justice, had been distinctly rceoLfniscd iu the coatitions•unde r the a lISpiCCS of Mr. Pitt, and the Noble Lord opposite (Weilcsl4): It was important to enable the Power that is 'to cover the Alps to do it effe c t ua lly, b y giving her a p ort i on of the sea coast of Italy. The Noble Earl con cluded an argumentative and eloquent, speech, by eeC observing, that uo good grounds had 'been, or could be made for the motion. atq ;us of BucKiNonAm replied,r aiter which a division took place. • • Mr. WHITBIIt;AD said this was a most mysteri ous answer.—His qncstion- was as plain as. it could possibly be, - and the Nohie Lord's answer was equally equivocal. To thtise Members in the House who were - anxious for war, that answer would, perhaps, be understood—th:y would, in terpret it that war was • unavoidable with Napo_ Icon Buonaparte. ilis friends around flirt might pia what interpretation on it they thought-fit. His °Wit interpretation was, - that ivhen the Ad dress was m ove d t h e matter was as much decided on as at present ; that then, as well as at preSent, it was war and not peace ; and he was convitieed that the war - would haie bt%-n proceeded on be-. fore now hail -not soMe new circumstance's oc enrred which the world were not aware of when the determiaatiOn was taken ; an d th at i t was hoped that these difficulties would .yet he got over and the contract be fulfilled. He could not alink nt letting the matter rest on such an answer. He should certainly some day this week - take the sense of th e Uonse on the subject of the papers before the House. labri. CASTLEIZEAGII said if e b e fi tmoura bl e Gen. nrai on yto give notice of Ins InOtion:- --• Mr. Witt-r;:,NBAD afterwards 'gave nntiee that on Friday next he should bring forward a motion on the State of ih;:t Nation, involving the fines tion of peace or war. • I)EBTS. Mr. TtgatiEr said, 'he undt•rStood that his na jeseti,'s Ministers had intimated an intention o, relieving: Russia of a debt of bet weeo two aa d three tnillions lie wished to know whether fin' engagement had actually been entered' into with Russia, fur transferring to this Count r y the burden of a debt contracted by her ? Lord CAs - rt.ea EAGH declined giving any answer with respect to ;any engagements %vial Foreign . Powers, not -in it state to be submitted.. to th e House. Th ere was it understanding that some compensation should be made to:Holland for the Colonies given tip by that country. Mr. TIERNEY said he was not asking any ques. tion with regard to the war hanging over us, but with .respect to a transaction which had. taken place; as be was informed, Sonic time ago, and which h e b e li eve d W as bi nd i ng on all parties, that this country should be subjected to an incumbrance of two and a half millions. He was 'not alnaking of Holland. Ile would ask the House it they were disposed to allow two and . a half millions to b e taken from .the people of this country for th e sake of being paid into the Treasury of Russia ? Lord CASTLEREAGH suggested to the Rightllfin. Gentleman the propriety bringing forward a Mo tion out the subject, it he was not satisfied wi t h his answer. • • Mr. TIERNEY asked him in good faith and can. dour . to tell the 'louse if such an arrangement had been agreed on. Ile did not ask for the produc tion of arty Treaty if it was not ratified. All he a•eked was; whether this subject was embodied in any engagement ?- Lord CASTLEREAGH said, no eng - agentent had been entered into in which the interest of this country was not fully consulted. The Report of the Itcsointions of the Navy Estiinates was brought up and agreed to. 11.1 r. ARBUTH NOT Went _into 'his promised ex -planation of several articles of exp en dit ure re l it _ ing to Ambassador's, Messengers; &c, The, total enarge for Messengers in 1812 was 29,500 L, in 1813 it was 31,5001., in 1814,, 54,0001. In ad ,dition to thesum already voted for Messengers,, au additional stun had been kiken from the. Army Es ,t imates. It was necessary last year to have a great number of Alt ssengers who went -t o and fr om th e different - arinies. This 54,0901, was- only paid to the King's Messengers, who were about 30 in number. With res'pect to - the accounts of our FO - reign Ministers, orders had been sent out to ali• of theta to keep items of their accounts in future. SUBSIDIES. , . Mr. PONSONBY understood that on the Bth in stant, authority Ir r id been sent to the-Earl of Chin carry, to sign subsidiary Trgatie , :i wirli the Allies. Ile wished•to know the amount 'of these engage nients, and wbether Lord Clancarty lid- acted throw of tuonft part e, bat not for prosecuting the war for the purpose of imposing on France any particular Government. Was he to understand then, that the war was to be conducted against Napoleon Buonaparte personally, that no peace could be made with personally, and that so Icing as he was at the head of the conecnis of France, no peace could ever be made with: that --country ? • Lord CASTLERE . AGII in a. much lower tone than usual, said, if we tunterstood him right, that the object of the Treaty was certainly Neat - against • : ,, Ertionartretel.trtit that it would only be binding on the parties so long as .they chose to have it binding. Mr. WHyrnnEAD said nothing could be plainer than his qu'estiOn, and nothing mote obscure and 'unsatisfactory than the answer of the Noble Lord. Was lie to understand that it was . impossible for war to be avoidedLi the part of, the country With • .Napoleowßuonaparte exercising the power and Government of France ? Lord LASTLE•dEAGH said in the same low tone, that the object. of the engagement was certainly to :provide against the power of Buonaparte by making war upon him. It was for the Honourable Gentleman, if lie chose, to form his own eotielu- Sion, Whether such airengagement wits incompa- - tible with making peace with him or not. . Mr.WirmittEAn felt himself as much as ever at , a loss with the answer of the Nohletord. When the Address was inured, it was stated that there was an alternative of war or peace ; and even down to the present time, except' from an occa sional !oose or iinginn.ded expression which drop ped from one or other of the friends of the Noble Lord, nothing had ever been stated to the House to induce them to think that there was not still an oternative. Ile believed 'it to be understood by those present in the House, who had no suspicion of any delusion, that there was a possible alterna tire in the existing state of things of war or peace with France. Now how could this. be reconciled with the Treaty and explanation on the T a ble ? Lord CASTLEREAGH said, lie conceived he bad sufficiently answered the question already. He', left the probability entirely with the Honourable Member. with or. Withortt instructions irotti his IkiajestO Government ? -12ord CASTLEREAGH objected to the'auswering this question, as it would be putting the House ;n possession, by anticipation, of the nature and state of the negociation before it ought to coupe beforg it. Mr. - PQNSONEY contended, that the House had a right to know their own engagements. _He,wish ed to knoW,. therefore, how far , the House were" pledged by these engagements ? The Crown had aright to make peace or war, but not to pledge the liolse by any Subsidiary Treaty. Lord CAATLEREAGH said it was always, in treat ing respecting any Subsidiary Treaty with,Foreign Powers, communicated to them ; that the 'Crown could do nothing More than recommend the mea sure to the adoption of Parliament. Sir JAMES AlickiNTosn understood the Noble Lord to have given it as ids Opinion; that for tlli nisters to state before-hand the amount of a Suti sidiary Treaty, would be a subversion Of the Con stitation.—(llear, hear ! and No, No ! from the Ministeri:;il side.) WINDSOR. PARK, Mr. WHITBREAD said,'in consequence of the proposed grant of 60001 to the Commissioners for managing Windsor Park, he had put a question last night to the Chancellor of the :Exchequer if he was ready to. produce the power of attorney uuder"Which these Coin uflisSiouers acted. Before snaking a motion on the SUbjeet . he Wortld rerz.at the question again to night. The CHANcELLort of the' EXCHEQUER'S answer tvas inaudible to us. - Lord YARMOUTH said, it' was perfectly well known, that for a number of years his present - Majesty had set an example •of Nrming to the Country, eXalUple was followed by the Duke of Bedford, Mr. Coke, and others. The King farmed a part of the Royal Park by way of recreation ; and the Management of it was under different men at different times.' Three Gentlemen were appointed Commissiorels, of which he was one, under a power of attorney. They had done no act which which was not done by the former Commissioner's, and if it pleased God to restore his Majesty, he would receive back his farm exattly its former state_ !Ile considered that an inquiry of this kind was prying into the private, concerns of the Sovereign. -His Majesty had al ways kept the Wardenship of Windsor Forest un named, that the office might not be filled up by Mihisters. He could not help thinking this sort of prying into' the private concerns of the King was rather indecorous. 'The only expellee of the Commission was a Clerk of the lowest description. Mr. TIERSZY said, if he kad thought this sub ject indecorous, he -would not have given his sup port to his Hon. Friend. 'Butt here was a novelty introduced called a fat in. The whole Park -of Windsor might be couvertectio this way into.' a farm. He should like to know Whether the Coin, tnissioners acted under a Commission or Power of Attorney. Why was hot a Warden appointed in the old way Here were three Commissioners substituted for an establish , :tl officer, a Warden. Something was to' he.gained by somebody, or the systeM would not - have been introduced. rifle Warden was responsiLle to some constituted au thority, but to whom were these three Commis siOners -'responsible ? . lie could not conjecture ‘v!rat _connection_ an_arc.iiitect,sonljLhave. - with expensive buildings at present constructing in Windsor Park, but what connection they Lad with agriculture, it would require the ingenuity of the other side of the Flouse to Skew.. • Mr. WHITBREAD then moved, that an Address be presented to the Prince, for a copy of the L'oin mission, or other instrument, vesting certain powers in the Earl of Yarrnotitn,.Mr. Nash, and Mr. Bicknell, respectiug the Royal Parks. 'Lord l' ,- .10101.111 7 .1 explained 'that there had been nollan ger appobted to Windsor Park sluice the death of the late Duke of Cumberland. Lord CASTLEREAGHargued, that no sufficient `..Jund had Ucen laic. for complying with_the ;notion. He appreliended" that it - was inconsistent with the practice of Parliainche'to lA,: such matters udder its co ,, nizance. Sir .101 - LN.SINIEON said a Pew Words against th e niotion. Mr. 11' Nl' wished to k now why -W no Banger the old Ginstitational ()lacer, h a d b een appointed to inds 2 or Park since the'illne - ss of the King ? He did not intend to press his motion to a division. • - I..c:rd YARMOUTH explained. Mr. TIERNEY denied that by the Act of the 53d George 111. it was intended to give the EA g a•power to break up the Parity that were given as a part of the royalty to maintain the di pity of the Crown. • He repeated :the question, why no Ranger had been appointed ? Mr. ARBUTHNOT said a few wards not audible in the Gallery„. Mr. TIERNEY begged to be informed what was the point o 4 law that had now been referred to the Crown Lawyers, arid wby it bad not before been decided, when the Commission had been so long in exi:stence ? The- CHANCELI,O?t of etie EXCHEQUER said, that'the , opinion of the Legal Advisers tif . the Crown was required as saim as the point. a as regularly raised. Mr. BENNET asked whether there would be any objection made to the production of the expellees of the erection Of the Thatched nilace ,jr. HUSKISSON referred the Honourable Gentleman to the Treasury, which had-issued warrants for the money which had been pant in his department. Mr. (Mill-BURN and Mr. BENNET said a few words, and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER admitted that there would be no objection to com k .leie the atconnts already want the Table, to a certain, date, regarding the election in Windsor rarli. -7.-- --- -- - ist.--- Or' tOe' he Which were given once in two yearn. fro al, l they were obliged to derive their profi ts t iorii, visitors of th e C our t.
