time had been filled up by such deserving persons. With regard to the sum for repairs, he did not wonder at the lion. Member thinking it large, because he had held the same opinion himself. lie had accordingly procured all the details, and they were open to the inspection of the Gallant Officer, if he thought proper. In 1814, the Bar racks were capable of holding 160,000 men. They had been subsequently reduced at various periods until they now only accommodated 42,000. The greatest evils had been experienced by soldiers being quartered at public houses in the disturbed districts before the erection of barracks. It was at that time found absolutely necessary to form permanent stations for troops in those parts of the kingdom. It was not to be wondered at that the poor, suffering under dis tress, should be led away by the delusions of Mr. Hunt, and others whom he could name. In such a state of things the people ought to he protected against themselves ; and it was much more wise and humane to restrain them by the means which had been adopted by the Government than to leave them exposed to temptations which must lead them to destruction. It was quite impos-1 sible for the Committee to do what the Gallant Officer proposed, with regard to the allowance for new barracks. The sum contained in the es timate for that purpose had been granted by the House of Commons last Session. A sum of 88,000/. was voted on account last year, and 75,0001. of that now remained on hand. The Government had found, on reconsideration, that fewer barracks might be sufficient than were originally intended to be erected ; and in their wishes to economize, they had countermanded the orders for the building of several that were at first agreed upon. Sir 3. NEWPORT had been always averse to erecting new barracks in a time of peace. With respect to the appointment of Barrack-masters, it was well known that such situations had been given away before the Bills for erecting the esta blishments were passed. Mr. lIUME wished to draw the attention of the Committee to the good old year 1792.—(A laugh.)—ln that year three barracks were formed Capable of containing 20,000 men, and the ex pence of Barrack-masters was only 4,500/. ; 401. was then considered a good remuneration for that which was now paid by 1801. The Barrack masters did not always live on the spot. At , Berwick the Barrack-master lived 14 miles off. Be was a farmer, and the duty was done by a Serjeant. In another place there was a linen draper, living 14 miles from Iladdington, and yet he filled the office of Barrack-master for that town. Many a Lieutenant would be glad to give up his half-pay for such an office. In the time of peace there was no duty in this respect that could not be discharged by the Adjutant. In 1799, the whole of the Barrack Expence was but 99,0001., and now it was 180,0001. although, as he before observed, we were at peace. He really thought the whole allowance to Barrack masters ought to be reduced one-half, and there would then be an ample allowance left, for doing little or nothing. If a barrack were to be erected at every place where there was a temporary dis turbance, there would be no end of building bar racks. Ile trusted his Gallant Friend (Colonel Davies) would press his Amendment, though he (Mr. Hume) for one thought the proposed re duction too little. Sir ROBERT HERON supported the Amendment. Mr. BRIGHT said, the erection of new barracks was most mischievous ; for it caused the people to remember the past. He had observed those who had the greatest stakes in the country ne glecting to attend the House on the most im portant votes, and he had observed Gentlemen on the opposite side, very coolly and regularly coming down to the House, and voting for their own salaries.—(Hear, hear !) Mr. MABERLY spoke in favour of the Amend ment. He thought the barracks erected last year bad been perfectly unnecessary. Colonel DAVIES and Mr. ARBUTHNOT mu tually explained. Mr. WILLIAMS said that Government had now admitted their former vies~ of the subject had been erroneous, as they had abandoned their first intention of erecting Barracks in several places. He should vote for the Amendment. Mr. HAttnonn declared himself adverse to the principle of ruling an intelligent community by intimidation. After a few words from Mr. lIUME and Mr. ARBUTHNOT, strangers were ordered to with draw, and the Committee divided, when there appeared— For tFe Original Moion For Col. Davies's Amendment Majority - 29 - -.24. Mr. ARBUTHNOT then moved a Resolution for a sum of 280,0001. for Contingencies, in which was included a sum of 43,000/. for the expences of the proceedings against her Majesty. Mr. BENNET, referring to the expences, said that the proceedings against her Majesty were inju dicious, abandoned, profligate, and infamous. The evidence on the subject with which the country was deluged, had been nauseous and offensive. The country never would forgive the measure, and he should think himself disgraced by asso ciating with the men who conducted it. The Ministers had borne the disgrace, and they alone ought to bear the expences. He was perfectly willing to vote for a measure which would sub ject their estates to pay for these infamous pro ceedings. lie was determined not to vote a shil ling to come out of the purses of the people. Mr. D. BaowsE said a few words which we did not distinctly hear. The CHANCELLOROf the EXCHEQUER said, that his Majesty's Ministers were prepared to meet any charge which the Hon. Member for Shrews bury might think proper to bring against them on the subject alluded to, but the present was not the moment for discussing the merits of that sub ject. The present vote was necessary in conse quence of the change which took place in the Civil List in the year 1815. Mr. HumE said, that backed as the Right Hon. Gentleman was by his majority, it was well for him to talk of his readiness to meet charges. It was an insult to the House to talk of meet ing charges arising out of the infamous charges in question. The Noble Marquess not now in his place had declared— The CHAIRMAN here called the Hon. Mem ber to order for referring to a previous debate. Mr. HUME said that he should not refer in terms to any debate of the House ; though he believed he had a right to refer to the debate of a previ ous Session. He would say then that he had heard the Noble Marquess in a certain Assembly; he would not say whether it was a respectable Assembly or not—(Cries of " Order!" "Chair.") The CHAIRMAN again interposed, and appeal ed to the Committee whether the observations of the Hon. Member were not highly disorder] y. Mr. BENNET said the House of Commons had not been mentioned. I Mr. Humc rose again, and said that the only way in which he could account for the interrup tion was by supposing that the Chairman ap plied the observation to himself.—(Loud cries of --- 44 Order 1") Mr. BROGDEN (the Chairman) said the Com mittee would see that in his situation he was not able to defend himself against a personal imputa tion. In the interruption he conceived he had only discharged his duty. Mr. HumE said, he could only judge of the ap plication of his words from the feelings of the Hon. Chairman. He knew the subject was an unpleasant one, but when he heard Ministers speak of their responsibility he could not refrain. however, to come to the subject, he should wish to know what had become of the property of the late King, or whether he made a will ? If not, his property became public money, and before he voted for this sum, he should know whether it were available to public purposes. The English language could not furnish terms to designate that infamous proceeding. As an Englishman he felt his heart glow with indignation against the men who could resort to such violence and op pression against an individual whom they thought unprotected. But the people nobly exerted themselves, and until her Majesty was restored to all her privileges, he should never be silent whenever the question was renewed. The next item in this estimate was 6,000/. for the Alien Act—(Hear)—and he certainly never should support that un-English-like Act. The next was 5,0001. for the Insolvent Debtors' Court.— They had appointed a Judge, and purchased a splendid house at Lincoln's Inn, and he would ask, was this a time for putting the country to such an expence? There were other smaller sums for the Board of Controul to which he objected ; 62,074/. for the outfit of Ambassadors was a large sum, and he contended that the allowances to all our public Ministers abroad were too high. A considerable saving might be effected by re ducing the allowances to Consuls and the Ambas sadors to the petty States of Germany. He ob jected to the sum of 6,241/. as composition of an action at law against Governor Maxwell, of Sierra Leone. It appeared that an individual had, by a Jury of his country, been awarded damages for an illegal seizure of his property by Governor Maxwell, and to bear him harmless this sum was now required. He should propose, that instead of the sum now required of 280,0001. for civil contingencies, that 200,000/. be granted to his Majesty for those services. Mr. BRouonim, at the same time that he per fectly agreed with the Hon. Member for Aber deen, that if his Majesty's Ministers could fore see the amount of any one payment, it was their duty to put it in an estimate, it did not require the acuteness and indefatigable industry of that lion. Member to point out that several of the items in the paper on the table were of that de scription ; but with respect to one item, he was at issue with the Hon. Member on the merits of the case. He owed it to a gallant Officer, who had been grossly calumniated in a Petition pre sented to that House, for the third time, to give an explanation of the circumstances respecting which the sum of 6,2411. was now required, though it was somewhat hard on persons exposed to such calumnies that no length of time or series of explanations can exempt them from reiterated attacks. The Hon. Member for Aberdeen had taken it up as if the name of Governor Maxwell had never even been heard of, when in fact in the Parliament before the last the whole matter was gone into, and the fullest explanation given. The Hon. Member had stated it as if the verdict of a jury having been given in favour of Cook was a good presumption that Governor Maxwell was wrong. But that verdict had nothing to do with the merits. Cook was a notorious slave dealer; that traffic being put down by one Act of Parliament, and by a subsequent Act made felony, was still continued by him. He and two others were tried at Sierra Leone for slave trading, and to shew the Committee how little the merits were against Governor Maxwell at Sierra Leone, where he was tried, Cook pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to transportation for fourteen years, and it was when they were on board the hulks here, that his friend the Lord Chief Baron of Scotland discovered a defect in the jurisdiction. There was a statute of Henry VIII. which the Felony Act it was held did not revive. At Sierra Leone, where they were known, they never claimed to be Americans, but here they first discovered that they were Americans. They were then, in an act of severe but painful justice, immediately set at liberty—painful he called that act of justice which compelled the setting at liberty of such persons. Cook then brought his action against Governor Maxwell for the seizure of the slaves, and it was perfectly clear he must have a ver dict, as it was not possible for Governor Max well to put in evidence the record of Cook's conviction ; the Jury returned a verdict for 12,0001. which Cook was glad afterwards to re duce to 6,0001. by compounding to receive that sum. He was quite sure that any man who had heard the tenth part of what he had stated, would say that it would be the grossest act of injustice if Governor Maxwell were to be called upon to pay a single shilling of these damages. Mr. ARBUTHNOT said, after the clear explana tion of the Hon. and Learned Member, it was' not necessary for him to add a single word re specting the case of Governor Maxwell. He de fended the charge of 4,0001. for the Cob of Lyme, as necessary for the security of the shipping on that coast, lie adverted to the other items men tioned by the Hon. Member, which he also de fended. The allowances to Foreign Ministers were, in his opinion, not at all extravagant, con sidering that it was not with our Ambassadors as it was with the Ambassadors of Foreign Powers, where the -liplomatic line was considered as leading to the highest offices in the State. Sir J. NEWPORT wished to knew the meaning of a certain qradruple alliance he found dotvn in the paper before them, to which Russia, Aus tria, Prussia, and England, appeared to be parties. Mr. ARBUTHNOT was not able to satisfy the Hon. Baronet on the subject. In saying what lie had, he was taken by surprise, in consequence of the absence of his Noble Friend the Secretary for Foreign Affairs. Air. WILBERFORCE made a few observations relative to Governor Maxwell, which were not audible in the Gallery. Mr. LENNARD, ill allusion to an item in the Civil Contingencies of last year, for the pay of individuals sent to foreign countries, to collect exotics for Kew gardens, complained that those gardens were shut to the public. Mr. ARBUTHNOT agreed with the Hon. Gen tleman that these gardens ought to be open. He had to inform the Committee, however, that the collectors of plants in foreign countries had been ordered home. With regard to the benefit to be derived from the opening of these gardens to their admission, that might be derived from the gar dens of the Horticultural Society, which were permitted to share in all the rare and other exotics sent home for Kew Gardens. Mr. W. SMITH thought that as the gardens at Kew were private gardens, they ought to be paid for out of the King's Privy Purse. Lord MivroN thought that the gardens at Kew, having no longer a Royal Resident, ought to be open to the public. Mr. ARBUTHNOT repeated what he had before said. Mr. HusrussoN said that the Horticultural Society were extremely liberal, their only wish being to disseminate all rare plants as much as possible. Mr. BENNET made a few observations on the same subject. He regretted the foreign col lectors were ordered home, as he thought their labours well worth the 10001. charged. Dr. LUSHINGTON remarked on the extrava gance of the practice of making presents to Am bassadors from foreign countries. Mr. ARBUTIINOT observed, that it had been the custom from time immemorial to make a present to an Ambassador, on his being recalled, of a gold snuff-box, with the picture of his Majesty set in brilliants. The usual amount of these expences, however, had been much curtailed by his Noble Friend the Secretary for Foreign Affairs. Sir J. NEWPORT noticed a large sum drawn for a brilliant Rosette, presented to the Persian Ambassador. Mr. ARBUTHNOT said it had always been found necessary to make presents, to a great extent, to the Persian Ambassador and his Sovere:gn. His Noble Friend, however, (the Marquess of Lon donderry), had found means to reduce the amount of these presents from 21,0001. to 11,0001. Sir W. DE CRESPIGNY made a few observa tions, which we could not hear. Mr. DENMAN thought that as the amount for the Civil contingencies last year was made up of the expences of the Queen's trial, the indemnifi cation of Governor Maxwell, and many other such like services, there would be no necessity for voting so much as the amendment of his Hon. Friend meant to grant. Considering that 300,0001. was granted last year, and that only 215,0001. were accounted for, a deduction ought to be made for the remaining sum unaccounted for, and he should move to amend the amendment to 145,0001. Mr. ARBUTHNOT said, if the Hon. and Learned Gentleman would turn to the Miscellaneous Ser vices, he would find how the remaining 80,0001. were disposed of. Mr. DENMAN still found many sums there not likely to he required again. Mr. lIUsKIssON explained, that the present vote'was one on account, for which his Majesty's Ministers were to account next Session. If the service on which it was likely to be expended could be foreseen, of course they would be in their proper Estimates, and there would be no Miscellaneous Service at all. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in reply to a question put by an Hon. Baronet opposite relative to the Quadruple Treaty, had to state that it was a Territorial Treaty settling the boundaries of Germany, to which this country was a party. Lord MitiroN complained that a treaty of such a description as was likely to lead the country into a war y should never have been laid before that House. Mr. ROBINSON stated that our being a party to it was merely nominal, and consequent upon our being a party to the Treaty of Chaumont and afterwards of Paris. The matter of the Treaty was settled by the German Princes, and this country was merely called upon to be a party to it. Some further conversation on this subject took place between Sir J. NEWPORT, Mr. RoBINsoN, Mr. MABERLEY, Mr. BENNET, and Mr. AR BUTHNOT. Dr. LUSHINGTON supported the blast Amend ment, on the ground that the incidental expences would certainly increase in proportion to the sum granted. He thought it would be serving Ministers to vote them less money, as they would then have a sufficient answer to those Gentlemen, amongst whom were Members of that House, who called for advances of public money upon the strength of their influence in that House, and which Ministers really felt a difficulty in refusing. Mr. ARBUTIINOT wished the Hon. and Learned Member would point out one item of the descrip tion he mentioned. Mr. HUME said, that an office granted in that way was that of Paymaster to the Police—given to Mr. Bathurst. Mr. ARBUTHNOT observed, that the office bad been abolished. Mr. BATHURST observed, that this was the se cond time the Hon. Member had mentioned a relation of his. He ought, however, to have known that the office he alluded to was one held by Act or Parliament, and, therefore, it was peremptory on the Secretary of State to fill it up on the death of Mr. Colquhoun, which he had done by placing his (Mr. Bathurst's) son in it, although he shortly withdrew from it, in con sequence of the Honourable Member's remarks. If the Honourable Member did not know these facts, he was grossly ignorant of what he talked about.—Mr. HUME explained. . _ After a few words from the CHANcELLott of the EXCHEQUER and Lord MILTON, Mr. DENMAN withdrew his Amendment, and the House divided on Mr. Hurne's Amendment. The numbers were— For the Amendment - - - 77 Against it - - - - 106 Majority - - - - -29 £lO,OOO was then granted for the works on the College of Edinburgh. , £40,000 was proposed for the Penitentiary, Millbank. Mr. J. SMITH opposed the grant. Unless some reason should be shewn different from that which had been previously stated in support of the expence, it was his intention to oppose the motion. He considered the whole establishment a job ; it was surrounded by a ditch, and, in point of health, no situation round London could be more unfavourable. Mr. MAncaLEy opposed the establishment, and complained of the expence, which had amounted to 550,0001. since the commencement. Observ ing Mr. Gipps laugh, he said it might be a laugh ing matter to the Hon. Gentleman who rode his hobby from morn to night, but it was a serious subject for the public. The place occasioned an expence of 511. per man. He held in his hand Parliamentary papers, and he collected from these documents that the total was 80/. per head. The expence of convicts on board the hulks did not exceed 331. 13s. per head ; the earnings amounting to 161. being deducted, left only 17/. per head. The expence of the Peni tentiary exceeded the expence of sending con victs to Botany Bay. The mode of employing the convicts in the Penitentiary was unfair. They were enabled to work cheaper than the poor people at Westminster ; and the consequence was, they drove the honest industrious, who could not stand in competition with them, into the workhouse. Mr. HOLFORD defended the Institution. With respect to the situation, it was erroneous to sup pose the ground was below high water mark.-- It was considered some years ago a proper spot, and being near the metropolis, the expellee had been greater than it would have been in any other place. In its present state it was not se cure. The works required carrying on, and when the whole was complete, the expense would cease. It was well known that an excel lent discipline was observed, for the purpose of reforming the morals of the inmates, and it might be considered a humane receptacle for offenders who had not been guilty of more than one offence. Mr. G. BENNET considered the Penitentiary a proper prison for those offenders who were not of the most abandoned class. The Hon. Member deprecated the irregular mode of suffering pu nishment to fall equally on those who had been guilty of first and second offences. The Peni tentiary made a proper distinction with respect to criminals, and it was subject of regret, that the enormous expence disposed persons to lose sight of the benefit to be derived from such institu tions. He hoped to see an end of the expence. Sir C. LONG expressed his' surprise that the Hon. Member should charge his Hon. Friend with riding his hobby from morn till night, there by drawing an inference that his Hon. Friend had done something wrong. What was the hobby horse? It was an endeavour to promote huma nity and reclaim the vicious. The public, in his opinion, were much indebted to his Hon. Friend. The Hon. Gentleman had said he hoped to see an end of this expence. He could assure him this would be the last vote but one. Every care had been paid to economy in the expenditure, but if they were determined to give moral in struction, they could not avoid considerable ex pence. In many instances among the women reformation had been produced and punishment remitted. Mr. INIABERLEY again observed, that the esta blishment was not advantageous to the country. Unless some very extensive benefit was to be de rived, it had better be given up. Mr. Girrs and Mr. ITARBORD defended the establishment. Dr. LUSIIINGTON also supported the establish ment, and gave the tribute of his thanks to the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Gipps) for the efforts he had made to promote the cause of humanity. The resolution was agreed to without a division. Mr. IRVING and Mr. P. MoonE then rose to gether, but the first Hon. Member had possession of the House. Mr. InviNG, after a few observations respect ing the proceedings of the Committee of which he was the Chairman, moved a grant of 20,060/. to be paid to General Baron des Fourneaux, as a compensation for the losses sustained by that Officer at the capture of Guadaloupe in 1794. Mr. P. MOORE then said, he had no wish to withstand an act of justice : but as the time for Adjournment had come, he should move to report progress. - The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, the lion. Member who had moved the Resolution might withdraw his motion, with an understand ing that he was in possession of the Committee. Mr. IRVING, on that suggestion, withdrew his motion, and the Chairman having reported pro gress, the Report was ordered to be received on Wednesday. GOVERNMENT ADVERTISEMENTS. Mr. HUME put a question to the Chanccllor of the Exchecraer relative to the manner in which Government inserted its Advertisements in the daily Journals. He wished to know whether the system of confining the Advertisements of Government to the Government Papers, which had been so generally acted upon in Ireland, had been introduced into England. He asked the question, because he had observed that from Pa pers of a certain description these Advertisements were carefully excluded. The Times, for in stance, had not had a Government Advertisement for the last 18 mouths. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied; AIARRIED.
