Proxies 3 g B i 23 Majority in favour of the Motio n ' —2 On being re-admitted; we found Lord GRENVILLB contended tor the propriety of introducing into the Bill a clause from the Bill of 1789, which vested in the Treasury a eontrouling power over the disbursements, that they should not exceed in one quarter by more than 30001. the dis bursements of auo!her. The Bill; as it stood at pre sent, provided no cou whatsoever, either on the Regent, toe Treasury, or ibe Queen ; and was on that account.. highly objectionable. 'He therefore moved that the clause of 1789 should be in trod ti ced. . The Earl of Livßapoot. said, that the expences alluded to could only he incur►ed by the cotisent of the great Officers •at the head of the Department; and as the measure Was altogether hut a temporary provision, that no great inconvenience could arise.— rhe motion he considered as unnecessary, and there fore should oppose it. Lord' C3ttttNvt►:t..rt objeaed to giving . any indi viduals a power over the Privy Poise, and maintain ed that there was as' much necessity far a provision, of the kind he proposed, at the present Intnnehi, as at the time %%wo it was first introduced to the no tice of Parhament. It was not then argued, as it was now, that because large disbursements could, nut be made without the consent of the great Officers, they need not provide any other controul ; on the contrary, they were determinei upon having the se curity of laW. With respet4 to the controul of the Treasury, it was 110tliing; the only power was that of remonstrating, but there Aas lid way of enforcing obedience to such remonstrance. If the clause✓ was not deemed necessary now as well as at that time, be a ould leave the House to draw what conclusion it might as to the [mines of those by whom it was resisted.

It was remarkable to observe how, even in the ,ptesent case, their total neglect of that country manifested itself. They had appointed, and rightly appointed, the two Primates of England on the Council, but it never seemed to occur to them, that there %.4 Ma Primate in Ireland also, Whose milk and abilities justly entitled him to the distinction of a similar appointment. He concluded with moving that the name of the Atelibishop of Armagh should be inserted after that 'Of the Archbishop of York. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, he could not hear such an asi,ertion , made as that which had just fallen from the Noble Lord, stating, that the present Mi stistry had negleCted Ireland, without giving it a di rea contradiction. With respect t 9 the motioii it. self, he should certainly oppose it, not from any ilk respect to the great character or high situation (dale Primate of Ireland, but because of the distance to which he was necessarily removed from the Seat of Government. Their Lordships must know that he. was obliged to teside in Ireland, and must'perceive in that very circumstance a conclusive objection to the proposition now before them.. Thee same argu ments which vent in favour of the appointment of the Irish Pinnate, would ripply equally to the'ap polo totem of the Seuch Primate, and yet the Noble l e ord had not represented any offence as having been given to that part of the United Kingdom, hi hav ing omitted 'That high character also. Earl STANIMPR thought that the elause respea- Ing the Queen's Council was the most important in the whole Bill, snd declatedligiSelt unwilling that bis Majesty should be placed in the hands of his worst enemies, the present iVlitait'ers. He would test the Noble Lord on the Wo ,, lsack—he would test him by a its:Alai) before he sat down, that he might know vthether he was pure gold, or only gilt' silver. , , He then moved that the nameof John Duke of Bedford belnserted.

" The enemy's reinforcements, destined for his army in this country, and which, as I inforMed your Excellency by my preceding dispatch of the '29th of last month, were then on their march through the valley of Mondego, reached the river Alva and the position of - Maredla on the 24th of the said month. They crossed that river the fol lowing day on one of its fordable rifts, and con tinned their march to form a junction with the army. Colonel WILSON has fallen back to Espinhal, and crossed the river Mondego, as hbon as he heard that the said troops were approaching, lest be should be involved in an unequal contest, being at the same time attacked in his front and rear. He re crossed t bar river, howeter, and harassed and pur sued the rear of the enemy's troops during their march of the 25th and 26th:from Alva to Espinhal, took some prisoners, and cut off some of the cut - my's small detadliMenss,;which fell into the bands of the militia. learned, frOm the prisoners he took that the enemy's force consisted of eleven bat talions belonging to the oth corps of his army, and which turned out to be the same that assembled in Names in the . course of last summer. " The division which marched to Pinhel, and whose advanced guard had reached Trancosa when I addressed to your Excellency my last community tittn, still continued at Pinhel, at - the time when I heard last from General SILVEIRA, whose head.' quarters were then in Torrinha.• This division is either the second of the oth corps, or. the division of troops which marched to Cardigos, and returned from thence in the month of November, under the orders of General GARDANNE. No other alteration has taken place in the position occupied by the enemy's army since the date of my last letter to your 'Excellency. " The detachments which marched to Castillo Branco, immediately came back from that place, and was scut thither either' to escort a courier or to pro cute informat "yin," The debate last night in the House of Lords, upon the Regency rfin, was most important, and the re, suit, upOn the several divisions, most satisfactory;__ The clause respecting the Household, 'which was left out in the Committee, was restored, Upon the motion of Lord LlVgiti'OOL. .A4:tinindment, pro posed.by Lord GRENVILLE, for limiting the restrice tion to six months instead of twelve, was negatived by a considerable 'majority; and a motion made by Lord KING, to teaveout the Loan CIIANCRLI.O4'II name from the list 'of the Queen's Council, was negatived by a majerny of .85. We are happy to find that what we yesterday stated es the result of the interview which the Loan CUANCELLOII had wish his AlbansTy on Saturday, wan confirmed last night h) his Lordship, who'stat ed that a most material amendment had taken place in his MAJHSTY'S health. The troops, which are intended to reinforce Lord WELLINGTON began,to embark at. Portstnooth on 'Thursday. On Thursday the 241 (br Queen's) Foot, under the command of Colonel IREMONGHIi, marched to South-sea, and, under the direction orSir K.
