tentinn of the House to the time the Navy Abuse 1 Bill was first offered for the consideration of mmtl, at that period he well recolleaed, that tbe ftieritfa of the Bill urged the-necessity of passing it intmediatelY into . a Law,-.as many -.abuses iii t'he Wavy were known to exist; lie therefore thought. if there was good cause to pass the Bill into a, Law, , r a very short notice, there was also good cause t o know vitnething-ofthe good cilia -produc'ed by the. Bill ; he should therefore move, that the•Commis. ft sioners appointed by Aof Parliament, toinvesti.. gate abuses in the Civil Department of th e Navy, as praaised by PriteAgents,- &c.:Btc. itrul report .the same to the House. •, Sir Cl/ARLES ?OLF said, he. ;lad the -honoOr.. : tO be one of the Commissioners appointed by the 8111' in question, and he could asstfre ti=le ''House, that no tittle had been lost, and that eversince, lie f • with the other ,Commissiooers, had rnet., a , they had sat from five to seven hours a :day ; he thou4ht it necessary to observe, 'that 'as soon as fair Coilies . were made out, theßeport•sitould .litidbefot'e the Honse for the inspection of. Parliament, and which should be done as . early as. possible. He.did not' doubt but if the Hon. Baronet had'inade . aoy inqui ry respeaing the business iiiquestioo, - (-.1. either of the Commissioners, he w.ctu4l not have , brought forward the present' Motion ; he, therefore, could. not but receive it as a rebuke. Cotain MARK!! 111! said, he had the honour to be a . D,l.ernber of Ake' -130a4 .Adnikalty, all he had, to observeat preA.ent on. the lion, Gentle. man's remarks re spe'lhig Mr. Taylor. was, chat • the Admiralty c onsidered the contra'a between hitn and them, as .a .141.1 one fur—the , . Pablic Irv, however, should. nor. enter into-the p;3rticu:ars .now, but when the business-comes before the - Ho:lse, lie shout(' speak at sonic length, on the SUbjea ; it may be necessary for him on the present occateiOn to inform the House, that _a very ingenious Me. cliaitk had invented an engine to cut bloas, at a mueb less expence than Me. Taylor could make .them for, consequently it the duty-of th'e Bi)ar - d of - Admiralty to save the public money, ,by.: get iitt. . the blocks as cheap as possible. And,notwithstand ing-the Board of Adiniralty, had been abused by the Hon.. Baronet, yet, he had the pleasure of -inform ing the House, that sioce the year .57 92,:. we have a better Naval Force to stand against any Enemy, thati we bad before that period. As to the .French Naval Force, which hid been so much talked - of, it ooly exited in the minds of Gentlemen on the opposite side of the House. He did not hesitate to say, that. the French Naval Force consisted of nothing but ‘4.1 few Fishing Boats. The CIiiiNCELLOR, tf the EXCIIEPUER.. said, he concurred entirely with the Hon. Geetle, man who said there Wall no imputation whatever • of blame upon the Admiralty Board; but his regret was, that some particulars bad been entered into in the speech of the Hon. Member. who made this Motion. All that had been said on the subject to which the speech of the Hoe. Baronet referred, niust necessarily form 'a part of the ()Nen to which the Inquiry of the Committee was to le directed, and surely it was nut too much to ask that the dis. cushion of that. and other points which were the ob_ jet% of Inquiry of the Committee, shauld - be,sti.S. resided until the Report had beets made. An I lop. Gentleman, at the bead of the Committee, had stated that the Report would in part be ready.in„the course of a very few days, and he though; that Hon. Mein. bet had latisfied the House there had been. no , delay in the progress of the Inquiry, nor needed.that Hon. Merrilw have brought forward any comparisoe be.. , tweet . ) the present' time and that of the year 1790, asao the interval' that had. passed between the form. ing of the Counnittee and "the making a Report. With regard to this .Motion, be did not, feel there was any thing in the nature of 'the Motion itself that tended to retied on any body, but there was something in,the particular manner of the Hon. Ba. rimer, in the _speech with Which he introduced duet Motion, that might be called an intended rebuke, and es° a suspicion of an unnecessary delay. What was 'the statement of the Hon. Gentleman at the bead.ol" the Committee Of Inquiry' ? That they werecalmost vire prepared with' one - part' of tle Reviler, and that several other r'nts . were soon to Come. forward : he could riot therefbretiVnk it winded' appear to the House tlitre had ''lse'en' any . • negligence •in the prOCeedin4s of`' Committee, nor sops the ithritation of negbgehee indied stated,' it was only implied from sat was stated by, „the Hen. Iltronet ; he' hoped. he 'did not intend to Con ' - vey that imputation, and he ilibuld Ise elad ,tohesr from the same quarter,' .afdiSclaiMer of stick • cation. That -Hon. Baronet bad alluded' to some . expreSsions which fell from hum (Mr. AontN o N) previous to the Christmas. Recess; and he 's , entcd, from.that.observation, to think that the - Alinralty had, from an ill-tidied - and miserable paisiinony,, starved a material part of the Public Service, .easel he had compared the present state of the"Nivat Fbree, wish the declaration made befctrethe Recess. Mr. Ann isoTost, said, he had flinch rather be found t o have made an improvident declaration, 'thin that it should 'appear that any part of the ru,b4 : Servicc, and particularly that part of it, bild beep starved by yarsimony, or frorn any other eaoe negfeeteit or that there should rest a suapidoss that it had been negleeted ; but he made no such declaration as that-which had been imputed to him. lie never said that fifty Sail df the Line would be ready for Sea at a re l om cnt . o t emir= . gency, within a month, as the Hon. Baronet stated,; but he said then, and he acid now, that attlidu g hl n , "rinse of P edze , on an etnertney,. fifty Sail of the Line might he got ready fiir S , a ; 'not intimating, for it would be madness to intinta(e, that , in that • period all the men for that Imniher of f)hips;coold Ire provided. His expression, at the title, conveyed po-sucil meaning, and' it would iireCy 11111308 Si ble 4 'from the nature of the thine; I so - it w as now i n ,. • possible to say eorreCily the period within which,. that Fleet: could be manned. When a number, of Ships arid.proper eget:tweets for them may be ready, WAS a matter which' Migist be calculated, and there, fore stated, and that was all to which his'expressihn referred, and that might be still better known - by those who were at thellead of - the NavatPepart. • merit ; but 'how was it possible to know precisely . when all the men necessary for th4r Set 4 d:ic e be procored ? That referred to a variety Of eorssi. do . aiions-.4rst i toil)* state of the Merchants' WeNngs fox stglAy cp!: from that atturcs, Secondly, from the MOM taken to procure these Men into the Royal Navy: It must ',therefore appear td the House manifestly impossible .for him to say at what precise a tteriod fifty Sail of the Line would .he ready to go to Sea on aaual Ser. He did not intend to say' any thing . that 'could have been so construed, and he should have been .ashamed_ of -having attempted it,- if he had Mope so. He would not now, because..this a avas not the season for it,. state the :number of Ships , which are ready for Sea • but did Gentlemen know 'how Many were so ? This he would say; idle nein. her was much greater - than any thing whiCh had : been of tate generally stated act: 6'6'l'o6llc, and such ;as would gratify the wishes.-of the best friends of this 'Country. a Thirty-two Sail; of the' Line were in :Comanission in L'riti.h • Potts:. more information :would be given in a few days. The Admiralty had used no.meanethat Were not justifiala:e in procuring ven therihadbithertotad rtcourse to none but the 'most Moderate means ; but let it ruit be,supposed that because men west not procured, they were therefore. hot - Iftncurable thellouse Wbutti learn that the ertinns of the Admiralty to procure naan, had hither. to had a stria regard to thrinteresta of Commerce, they had wisela• proportioned their. exertions ..to the emergency of the Public Service on thi one has;, rind the interests of Trade and Merchandiie on the Other. They had not hitherto pressed any from Protedinns, nor bad the Commerce of the Country been, in the least degree, interrupted. Gentlemen should recoiled,. that the scale now' was greatlk`al tered from what it was in former years in this par. 'dollar. In roamer times it was thutight a great ex.a ertion to raise from r 6,000 to 20,000 Seamen ; but we were to raise from 346,000* to sa,ooo men,.w hick was a very great differenCe-of cortarira.' tive exertion. He observed, however, there wai, no remissness in the present_ service ; on the con. • tiny, greater exertion than at any , former time,-. of the sit length; and by much more moderate-means,. and hettet regaid to the interests of Trade, than On any former occasion. Ile was aware' that he had Bane mote into particulars, on this occasion,. than , perhaps Was warranted by strict regularity, - and by which he had fallen into the course which he bad re. gretted to have been done. by other's. His apology was, that he. was %lesuops to , set the matter'riglit, and to assure the House, there .Was no period for which he was more anxious than the lay when'he • should have it in his power to.bring forward a car., tea. Statement on this part of the Public Service, as well a's that of endeavintring to do justice to every Member of His Majesty's GoVernment, as well as himaelf, upon the discharge of , their Public Duty, in this and every other branch of the Public Service. should then bring for ward certain taapics with more satisfaction than he' was at present able to de. scribe. No looger time than was absolutely neees. sdry would be taken to bring forward these topics, when, Ile was confidenta they would undergo a full and perfea discussion. For the present, he appae. !tended, that his lion. Friend behind hint, had.given to the. House an explanation that was. perfealy 'sa tisfaCtiary. He had now only to say, that instead of proposing to negative the Motion now before the Home, he should move the Order of the Day. CANNING obserted, that the Honourable' Baronet had at present received a ,satisfaaory swer to his Motion, and probably, if such an an.. awes had been given formerly to his Question, as had now been given to his - Motion, the House would not have been troubled with the present diseussiOn; but there was one point in 'which it appeared to him that his .Honourable Friend had: net .had justice done hima-he was represented as 'terse.: veriog in this matter with Out necessity, When, in point of faa, his Motion arose front his not having had an answer to a question which he had put on former'oce:tsiOO. His Honourable Friend was re. ,presented, as imputing blame to the Commissioner§ under the Bill tur iiiquiry into abuses" in the Navy ; now if there was any one thing,More remarkable than another in, theacoUrse of what he said with ,perfed 'fairness on t hi s . n e c aif on , it was that of •a stualbaui assurance to the alionae, that he did not. blame the CominissiOners, and lie thought it int. possible to accuse. his Honourable Friend an that ground. He understood the Motion merely pre. paratery to an inquiry into ,the subject by the House, after teeeiaing whateve r i o l o r mat i on whieh should be conveyed by the Report This Coin. mittee Was appoi nt ed before Christmas, on an alle, gallon that great abuses prevailed in the civil de. partments of the Noy, and.so urgent and crying were these abuses stated to be; that the Bill ; was past, he would' not say improperly, . but. in : a .very littaitrd time, cOnsitiering the Constitutional Pt in— _ciples Which it ihvolVed. Parliamept, however, concurred in' passing it thus raphily„ under a-cony vin iona that the ;thaws were, so.styiag r atliat they o must Mat, be : allowed to p ass vefahe,holidays r atud' one argument theft`, roaticcuse of by way of -aapaliatre to the gill' aaaa, that if it did not a pAgfaelle, the 'a:great, deal, of,, gtiii(;would,4y. off and escape from punishment: Now he .woulth ask, ,Imd any man fled to escape punishMent ILA Mt. Taylor fled,aor whom Sao much had been said; and who had'. been so treated On the contrary; as a' plata that, lie had no occasion to fly, or. to fear; hi was even now re-itiveated with his eoni. train. . There was, therefore, 'attend of that argu-: meat of the neceasity of -the meavire, for the puro pose of .providing against the flight of Guilt. 'flit ohjeet . of his Hon. Friend by the present mationa, he otidetstood to be this—that as the Bill gaveato these Commissioners an extraordinary and anoma..a louts power, and applied an extramdinary remedy, 'and nothing but the :extent, of a abuse stated as the cops e of it % he wished to kntawa what was done by • that Contuturee, that was .toaaaya: to knoW what t4se the Commiitee had made: of. such power ? And he owned he could : . not . think it. W4s unworthy the kelinga a Member, of Parliament to . expreSsaa wish for tech information, in order that the useof this extraordinary power might appear to the House, and that the. Hausa might see how it had been apa plied; in order that his. Hon. Friend, and every other Member who had 'supported the Bill, might stinad well with himself fur having assented to such tr, - ;asure. If'so much, 40: such .extraordinary, wort er was givcn, wEi.it too much for a Member of Parliatitent to ask:, how :tuft power had b ean empleyed AT S that, an . inquiry which was worthy a A'i.i4o l ,l;qlo: 44 40,41i' Friend was charged with going' into particulars:, upon this .occasion,- before the Repel was' brettzhe forward. On a former occasio n , when he asked for the - Report of the COmMittee, he received no ., answer; and as one head of the Report rilkSt then have been- nearly ready, as appeared:by the itateuient of an Hanour'ible Member of . the Committee, that might have been stated to his HOn. Friend, 'and then he was confident that he would not have gone into particulars before he saw.' that Report. Another' point on which his Hon. Friend was justified in calling for the Report, -, was this when. this Committee was instituted, the House was Impotually warned by Ministers to con. Sider that ‘!se ,iykre in a state of profound Peace, ,and whtn,,itee4nte, no possible injury could be felt by probing into abuses which had crept into our aVirs in the course of a long War; and this argument must be truppoied to have great weight, (rani such authority, for it was possible that a measure might be laudable in time of Peace, and yet infinitely clan gerous even to be tried in time of War, In time of War, it was possible to feel abuses, and yet we should nit attempt to remove them.. Mr. Taylor gorhis coneiniCl again --= Why ? Because that which was intended to supply his place was not ready.— What did that prove, but•that Members of Govern mew began to destroy, before they had provided. means . for subititution. He would ask, if that was . the ~ situation in which it was wise ,to pla& us ?-t:--, and' was a man to be rebuked after Wards for doing nothing, but' his `duty, by. calling on the House to examine into the manner in which power so obtain. ed, had been:exercised. ,1t was very possible that the Bill under which these Commissioners aned, was nneant for Peace and not for War--4te was not saying that was the case—but it was possible, and that was a 'question fit for discussion, and his Hon. Friend was now not only justified, but lie was. per. forining a laudable 'dtity in calling the attention of Parliament to a sobjed of so much importance:— nor wit this all, his.llonourable 'Friend would have been justified 'in taking the course he did — although none of these reasons existed. He would have been justified upon the principles of Humanity and she feelings yfaigeetleman in calling for an account of . the manner in which this power had been exercised, if he had .ordy conceived that Mr. Taylor was an •ioi v idual. Be saw nothing discreditable to his Hon. Friend in bringing this matter for Ward, even if it appeared that he had no other motive but that of vindicating the charaCter of at intlividasi . Whom he had thought ill-treated ; why then, his Hon. Friend was justified in calling. the attention of the House to the Subjea on the feelings of common Hume nits,. He was justified in doing so from the civility of a Gentleman, a point which no Gentleman would dispute, and as a Member of Parliament not-only was lie justified in what he.did, but he was laudably performing a laborious task.- The conduct of -the' Adiniralry was not in question now, nor-need it 'have-been brought into this debate, in the course of which, without any reference to any personal gees tiOn, it appeared that persons who mean to speak on one side, might,happen tosontraditi each other, and this had been the fad tonight in this debatebetween his Hon. Friend behind him (Captain MARCHA•M) and the Right Hon. Gentle'man upon the floor (the CtinNcELioa of the Excnvqtrei). The Right • lion. Gentleman had- said, that with regard to the preparations of the Navy of this Country, it; is, in point of. Tad, in'a greater state of preparation than on the apprehension of hostilities at the be-1 ginning .of the last War. That was not the ques tion ;..but the question was, whether, with reference to the comparative establishments at both periods, more ,had been dOne now than had been done then in the same length of time, to put this Country in 0 proper state of preparation for hostilities ? The Right Hon. Gentleman had said, .that when he said Fifty Sail of the Line meant -for service would..be ready in a , month, on an emergency, he did not mean that they should be adually fit for sea, be cause they might. not- be Manned in that. time. He would , not' Contradid the preient statement of the Right Hon. Gentleman, but the way in which he aecOunted'for having deceiVed himself by hearing the statement was this : The Right Hon. Gentle-. man hat) said on that occasion, the men were more easily '6lloeitdow than thee were _formerly, be eausetherihie now distributed in frigates, and that therefore the shipS might be equipped in a shorter rinse than formerly. This was the reason alledged by Right Hon: Gentleman, why we could fit out so sail of the line withirtio short a :time upon an emergency, and this could not for merly be done. How that themen might-be brought together, and in forrn aldree sufficient to fit up a ,fleet of so sail of the iine he could understand, and. that',wits the sense in which he coMprehended, or thought he comprehended, the assertions of the Right Hon. Gentleman upon that subjea. But how fn's. gates can be . Changed into large ships of the line, he -owned he did not understand, fic could not under. stand how frigates .could be changed, into ships GE 'the line, - but he could conceive how the men taken outof a great number of.frigates, werebrought together, and put,, on board ships of the -line ; and this was the only .way in which he hoped to atone for the misconception he had formed of the assertion of the Right Hon. Gentleman. What he had heard to night, excited hisastonishinent, and hemust now beg that the King's Message of the Bth of March be now, read. [The Message was read in part..." His Majesty thinks it necessary to acquaint the. House of Commons that very con. siderable military preparations are carrying on i n t h e ports o f r a Holland, Mr. awl HuWL] Mr. CANNING proceeded t he said, that was enough for him. It was now far the first time that the Houke j badheard, from the hest authority, from one of the: - 1,004s of the Admiralty, that there was no preparation.in the Ports of France and Holland. , Until to-day the House bad been led to believe there were considerable preparations carrying on in the Ports of France and Holland. —But now we had a plain assertion from one of the Lords of the Admi ralty, directly u conadiding the whole of the most material sentence in the Messagefrom the King. In the very teeth of all our ahem, a Gentlematy from the Admiralty told the House there was no foundt. don for any part of it, fo r that w e h a d nothing to oppose but a few fishing boats. This was a n aAreeable snrprize, and he had trio high an opinion lon. Friend, rapt. 1;4 ANt's vigilance, 1 9 444 1 .cik; € 41 (4 3 / 4 4 - 0 - of i iqurnl44n 4 and too I !P • tli an opinion of his veracity, for an inst ant to sus. PSct the truth of his assertion—too high an opinion • of his integrity to susped that he would attempt td delude the House. If not, then the question would ! be, Who have deluded the House ? On what pre. tence was that Message sent ? If the s uite. went of his Hon. Friend (Captain MARKII:0 1 )t Was corred, be believed he understood the case a little, and thi . it r was not difficult to judge Why the House had no information. The Report of the Committee wdold" soon ,be made, and then the House would take the matter of it into considera tion. The material questions which would arise on' it- would --be, -nor ..only whether the CommissfortetV-. ! had exercised their powers prorrly or not ? bolt also, - Whether this Measure did more good than. harm t'or whether, which was a poisible ease, in. stead of redressing grievances, it had been applied to the oppression of a worthy individual, and ex ercised to the detriment of the State ? Mr. -FOX said, that the Right Hon. Gentleman who spoke last must perceive that no motion had. beenjnide at present upon the conduct of the Board of Admiralty : if that subjeel should come'under. discussion, be had such a perfeil reliance upon the high character of the Noble Person who presided: ovtr that Board, that. he had no doubt but that .5 complete anti sufficient answer would be given to any charges that' might be brought 'forward. It was erytainly.natural to. wish, that upon a point of great - public importance the fleuse should have formation upon the subjio,• but it was impoisibte sometimes ,to have information simply, and at the: same- jime justly, because information to be satin.4clory must embrace all the pointS conneeled With, lie. was perfeet4 , convinced of the good into tion-of the present Board of Admiralty ; by good intention, he meant not only .the disposition, but the ability to reform : and root out the abuses which were knoWit to exist in parts of the Naval Service, He trusted that in the prosecution of this Brest work, the Board of Admiralty would not suffe r themselves to be intimidated by the clamours or in. sinuations which were thrown out against them 11 Jobbers, nr by persons who were interested! in con-. rinuing those abuses. Strong powers were certain ly given to the Commissioners. by the Bill whi ch. had been alluded - to: he certainly was not a frierid to vesting strong powers in any persons ; but if L: were to.give them in any case, it wound be when' they were folic used to effeet reforms in the abuses of the State. He had seen instances in which let* mer Administrations had been anxious -Lyon all oe. !easions to take strong measures against the Suh,fett and it would be too much now if they were to re. fuse strong powers, which were to be exercised fa the benefit of the Subjeel. This certainly was ling. ! ! tote time for'entering into any discussion upon the Armament; he could nor, however, help ex r resiieg his surprise at what had fallen, front an. Hon, Helium (Captain MARKHAM) upon that subjea, e ven thoUgli the 'Hon. Member's opinion upon that sob jeft agreed with his own. The words of di,. Met. .sage certainly were Military Armaments; nuivtlx" ,word Military' Was certainly sometimes . u sed •in contradistintlion to Naval; but When the subjeet came to be inquired into, it would make very ',tie ttifreeence in .what :.ense the wotd itooa. lie had merely risen. to state hi, i'r , r i fr o ' r confidence in the ability of the present eit h er line, as men! `Admiralty to carry - the reforms into dal) in time of Peace or War. ".A that .Cay,terin itIARKITAM, in explanation 0 1 -1 -When he spoke of the respeetive !Naval' ;For i c t e : ll , certairlly! , nurstepped Ibis Country, and of that which he mUstsq ° l , to atural. Enemy, he sometimes used strong extr essi with . !;ot eiothiog to be held to the striet lett'erile them: Perhaps, too, it might be a little a llotvao to Gentlemen of. his profession to hold the Naoi c Power of France In m contept, and it was in thtfts view that he spoke-of the Navy! of France, en d beg g ed tip refer to the History of the last W ar t an a it would be found that he had not much ou tste P r the bounds of truth, wh en he called the NavY ° France mere Fishing.boats. He did not 1 1 0Y,t u bt r i g were no Armaments in the Ports of France an d " d o land, 'but he h o p e d h e s h ou ld always be abl e !"! speak of thein with the same contempt. Sir HENRY IifILDMAY. said, .the CHA NCO4 Loa of the E XCH4Q Ue R had made useof wordstall coming from him, which he did not use; he did I°l recalled having called the Gentlemen, compo i TEP, the Board of Admiralty, parsimonious charafters• .T,lie CHANCELLOR of 'the ExcitaQuls plainer!.
