Doek-yarilsi be denied - the laft. He believed nn the contras*, that the numberMf Shipwrights in His Majesty's Mck.yards was sloth( present motnent within r 8 -0t any period during the last War, whilst the effective strength watogreatera" Lord ST. V 1 :l --c atT . had put-the axe to the - root of jobbing, in jured peculation, and on that account had largely shared in obloquy,- common with some of the best and greatest men in the Country. He con tended that the Admiralty had labaured well for the Country, and he was sure that the Public felt a deep interest in• the proceedings of that Board. He should not -certainly consent to any Motion which must necessarily produce-an inquiry into the condud.of the Board of Admiralty, which would be taking up the time of the House to no purpose. Mr. C. PONSONBY, after defending Mr. Fox agairist what had been said respeting him in the former part of .the Debate, said, that the information asked could not give any clue to the disposition of Our force,lnd, therefore, in his• opinion, the Mo tions ought to be granted, as concealment could an swer no good purpose. He was aware that it would be 'impolitic to publish' the disposition of our force, -but to give an account of its numbers could have no effe6 bur that of striking terror into the hearts of our-Enemies. At the same time he dithaot wish it to be supposed that he was friendly to the Motions . of the Right Hon. Gentleman, as conveying a cen sure on the First Lord of the Admiralty. .As to the Gun.boats, he - was of opinion that larger ves sels were preferable, and certainly with reaped to Ireland, which was the'most vulnerable part of . the British Empire, he knew chat largeovessels svere the best that could be employed; - He (lid not deny- that a comparison Might be made . Between the condua of the late and present Board of Admiralty, but he was 'convinced if it was made (kat it- would not turn out to the disadvantage of the present Board. He remembered when a French Fleet sailed to Ire land with-a force, which, if it had landed, might for a time have effcled the conquest of Ireland ; they would have driven the British Troops into the sea at the other end of Ireland. That Fleet re mained 14 days in Bantry Bay, without a single British Ship appearing off that part of the Coast ; hut now we not -only blocked up the French Fleet in Brest Harbour, but had another Fleet off Ireland to beat them if they came out. — He thought it WAS the first duty of the House to consider whether any doubts were thrown upon the public charaaer anti conduft of 'Lord ST. VINCENT, and ohether they. were Such tht Lord- ST. "'V INCENT ought to have an opportu nity of clearing that charaaer and Condloc_l to the World. He should therefore vote for the Inquiry. Mr. STURGES BPURNE said that his Right Hon. Friend had moved' for Papers in olderao ena. ble Lord ST. VINCENT to clear his public charades and. condud to the Country, and yet Ministers bad refused to accede to ahree of his Right Hon. Friend's Motions, on the express groOnd,`that if they were carried an Inquiry must necessarily take place. — Could it have been expected that any enemy of Lord Sr. VINCENT would have said more ? -Because if the Motions were agreed to; evidence nust be called to the Bar, to shew reasons why Lord Sr. VI:TCENT had not clone now what had been done on a former occasion. The R;glit lion. Gentleman (Mr. TIER. NEY) had accused his Right Hon. Friend ( Mr. PITT) of making statements which were dangerous to-the interests of the Country, but had not his Right Hon. Friend, with respet to the Militia, the Army of Reaerve, and the Volunteers, proved himself the sincere friend of his Country, instead of saying any thing which - might endanger her interests ? With - iespeft to the' Dock-yards, the Right' Hon. Gen tleman (the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER) had stated that the deficiency of Artificers only amount ed to 58 ; he did nor mean to dispute the int - co-ma: Lion of the Right Hon. Gentleman, but he had hc'en told that the deficiency amounted 'to I 100 below a - War Establishment. He should be highly. satisfied if the statement ofahe Right Hon. Gentleman should j'rove tube correit, but the difference on this sub jed called for Inquiry. He very much feared that at • the period when the Peace- was made the _num ber of shipwrights and artificers in the Dock yards were reduced 400. below a Peace Establish ment, and this too at a time when a large num ber of ships were in want of repairs. Respedin the Ships, he should like" to know whether any new Ships had been laid down, and whether the ,Ships which had been laid down for years were now going on with. It had been said, in • opposition to the proposal for building Ships in MerchantsVards, that an aaion had been brought agains t tlie Builder of the Ajax, for not performing his contraa, but that Was surely no reason why Ships should be built no where whatever. The Motions of his Hon. Friend did not go to the disposition of our force, bUt to co Ovarattve statements, which we re neeemi(ry to the elucidation of the subject. Whether Gun-brigs ought to be employed on the Enemy's Coast, or on our own, he would not pretend to decide, but that made, no difference as to the amount of our force ; and when the House were In possession - of infor _ Oatnation, it would be for them to decide whether bur force had been properly applied or not. He ---agreed perfectly with respeft to the ability of Lord Sr. VINCENT as a Commander, although he might disagree with. resped to the conduit of.that Noble Lord in other . departments. They' hail .only now to consider ads of omiasion, but perhaps at a future time they might have to consider ads of coturriis:. 'eion, and particularly relating to matters of-easen tial imnertance; respeaing the personal liberty of the subjed laud cry of r. l hear !) The CHP,NCELLt)R of the EXCHEQUER, in ex. planation, said, that he alloded to the number of Shipwrights employed in the Dock Yards. Mr. STLIRGES BOUNE'said, that he alluded to Aiiifieers is general, and probably the difference en this sui , joa was the beet refut a tion of the Right lion..Getir kiwi-2s statement. , Sir. WM. gLFoRD sai4 than when ariWs'tenta_ tious, severity was exercised by the Admiralty, the source from hence:it originated < tight to be pure and uncontaminated. He was proceeding in an nation of the c nduct of the Admiralty, 't . ilicrt he; was called to order by • The SPEAK ER, whL. re:.7.ind'A cf the, qucstjen befote the Hou-r. €ir EL o D ‘v - ns proceMi.,g; when. a Cry / o f •r./.'r hi.ll to l.l(ikA' 1 1 . - ap. 4E kng the Motion,' and went into a variety of tietaikil calculations in support of his argtoneots. Sir IV. CURTI,S, e xpressed himself satisfied with the oreaentNaval Administration of the Country. Mr. COURT EiV AY was for the produation of the Papers on the grounds advanced by Mr. Fox. Mr. FONBL ANQUB shortly delivered his senti ments for the IVlotion. Mr. PITT, in the course of a reply of very con. siderable length, to which the latepess of the hour precludes us from doing any thing like justice, ‘ob served„that the very able and powerful manner in which a Learned Gentleman near him had enforced the Motion, appeared to.him nearly decisive. The House, by the line of argument adopted by those who opposed the Motion, was called upon to refuse information of the most important and necessary kind, because if such information was given, it would carry into the mind of ParliamCnt a doubt, which doubt o it was held against him, would pre clude all farther inquiry. Let it be considered what that doubt was : it was of no less importance th‘ao the question whether the Naval Force of the Country was sufficient to meet with success, an attempt at inva sion avow edly expelled in. the course of a very few weeks, perhaps days, and which invasion was of that nature and charader as to.threaten the very existence of the Country !, A second doubt, and which was inseparable from the Motions he hadoffered, related to the very important question, though perhaps not of the immediate magnitude or importance of the for. mer question, whether timely means were adopted to ensure a supply of that . shipping, and of theSe ves sels, which a protracted contest . would, in future periods, render necessary, either for the Defence of the Country, or for terminating the contest . with honour and advantage ? It was urged against him, an a l particularly by a Learned Gentleman who had' spoke late in the Debate, that a case was made.out by him sufficiently strong to authorise the eroduc tiotof the Papers required. He - thought, liowOrer; • that such a proceeding was not necessary in the first ine stance ; he had little more than a simple statement of fads to aospicate, and_ the information which was required would prove the cotreEtness of what he' advanced. It was essentially, necessary to know, in the views upon which he came forward, what measures were taken to augment the existing Naval Force of the Countiye oot only under the itripres sion of its immediate defence, but with the view of effeetnally prosecuting the War in future—hut if these documents shotild induce doubts upon the sub jed, was it not more than ever necessary that they should be produced, in order. that Parliament should not remain io a state of doubt—and that the real situation of- the Country at present, in these most itnpottant points,. should be known ? Was not the interposition of Parliament under such a considera tion evidently necessary ? Pursuing this line of argu ment with the greatest success, he contended that there existed, prima fade, strong grounds for going into an Inquiry into these important points : no claims :of confidence could militate against it, and he scou:ed the idea of any real danger which could arise from such an investigation as he had proposed-. Adverting to the idea of an Hon. Ba, ronet, that under the present Administration of 'Naval Affairs, he could sleep sounder than ever `upon his pillow, secure of the National interesti, being properly taken care of in these respects, he observed that these grounds of security appeared to hiin in' a very different light indeed ; the sleep might be sound, but it must be the lethargic sleep of death, which could not be aroused to a sense of the present danger in which the Country was placed ;—their may sleep on, did their conscience or the dilates of _prudence suggest to them, they may do so. When they were told on the part of Government, that the production of the documents • called for, would create doubts on their minds, he contended, that if such were the case, even if it would tend to increase the confidence and strength of the Enemy, a . position which- he by no means ad. mined, as it tended to militate against the immediate sources of the prosperity of the Country, still the interference of Parliament was the more .necessary, 'and by which alone, in such a case, real and sub stantial security could be obtained ; they should not suffer themselves ;to remain in such - a state Of delusion. He could not avoid troubling the House with a few short remar k s up o n the turn which the Debate of that night had taken. He had come down to the House with an understanding, obtained in consequence of the communication made of the nature of his Mo. dons, that it was the intention to accede to two heads of the information called for, without objec. tion,, though one of those involved a necessary in. ferenee of going into the reniainder. He thuS - was led to .think that he had been relieved from the la bour of proving the case to that extent which the conduct of Ministers afterwards rendered appa rently necessary. His surprise 'was not a- little, when a Right Honourable Gentleman on the bench ‘ below .reproached him for corning for ward with such Motions without laying suffi. cient grounds fur an Inquiry. He would leave the House to judge of the candour with which was neared, when he was called on to- argue the question on such a principle.. He repeated, that he could not in fairness ,be called upon to go . farther than state his case in the first instance, as it was to he supposed that the • documents called for would prove it. The case bore two distinct features ; respecting the first, he would undertake to prove by argument, that the circumstances of the Coun try from the danger of Invasion, from the*manio .festly increasing preparations of the - Enemy,: and . .from the -daily expeatation of their attempting to -realize their threats, called for a greater pro, portion of that kind of force more particularly adapted to meet the ,threatened attack, than at any former period, beyond comparison, out of sight a 'greater proportion but that in point of fad it possessed it in a much less _degree, and farther, in a still., less degree than might at present be created . and maintained ; . --though t h e e bi e ct at stake was the actual safety of the Country, .andthe.guariling it against a greater evil than ever 'yet hung over the head of any Country : the*Second -feature was, ahat a gross- defeat and omissiop ob. tamed in the layiag a ,necessary foundation fit:- .constant soaplyut Few, force, ,which mute [hal any other would enalaeot his Country to carry tl7e War. Me.a this ,kind were the more ne.ces atrie as i t o, obiootis, riot after a Log ceerse of service 1 I.ift war, the wear • and tear (Ri side, He wcuhl appeA us Ille 7a..1 IJC House, whether admitted doubts upon a case, in volving such considerations as he had stated, did not make out as strong a ground for Parliamentary, interference as it was possible to conceive ? qon_ scious of this, he was not a little surprixed to hear a variety of general suggestions made by one Gen tleman particularly, long a powerful opposer of the measures of Government, but whom, he doubted not, would one day become a powerful supporter thereof., —A Right Hon. Gentleman also seemed to entertain the idea that he was panic-strUck with resped to. the Invasion. Of that he should not then speak, but it may be important to consider how far His Majesty's Ministers were panic-struck or . not upon that point ; how far their panic obtained, or. whe ther they at present entertained different sentiments of the menaces of the Enemy [Hear! Hear]. This may in some degree be estimated by the measure of their exertions. He was of opinion the Noble Earl at the head of the Admiralty, in whose. praise so ,much was said that night, was as little liable, in one sense, to sensations of panic, as any man that ever existed ; yet as a rational man, he must re, gard a seriously impending danger, so es ro take measures of precaution, commensurate to his sense of that danger. Their opinions of this impending danger, when one part of their exertions, in the lines referred to in his seyeral motions were consi dered, nay be deemed different, when their prepa rations in another way were viewed. The danger was avowed to be immediate ; they had added an increased Militia to a Reguiar Army, which however was by no means so perfett as he could wish, when they called upon the population .of the Country to arm itself. In these measures Mini sters agreed With him. Was there any Collusion in this part of their conduct ? They went `farther, - impressed with the apprehensions of invasinn, they trenched upon the comforts of individuals, upon the. industry - and, the resources of , he Country :, was this all collusion on their part .? Or did :hey not so far - manifest therneelves to be tlEt9ated by a simi lar panic with himself uoon.the subject. otelnvasion ? Thai, he would ask, why not bring art equal degree of exertion into the Naval Department, a line in which, above any ; nth/ r, greatest exertion should he made, more especially whit its N ivy, even under the dieettion of one w ho h_ o l, utteo l e d its, Fleets to viaory, to liereior; end L.) glory ? Were not:those_ advantages derlyab:e from the insular, ; situation of the Ceuntry to be improved and aeted upon, and was our Navy, yvhich had extended its fame, its power, influence, cnintneree - and conquest, even to the most distant 'quarters of the, World, which had raised this Country to a place and rank in the scale with other Nations, beyond what the proportion of its population or natural means seemed to entitle it-- to be negleaed, and suffered to remain in inglori ous inaaivity, and at a time when it may he ren dered its best means of defence, and considered as the true palladium of our secut icy and independence ? Let the respettive situation of the Contending Na tions at present. be compared to what they were at the commencement of the late War, and, the Naval Force of Britain at that period, ana„ at the pre., sent, be compared, and considered. At the be ginning- of the late. War, when. France was torn by internal divisions, agitated by ten thousand restless fitaions, when the fear of Invasion, com paratively at least, was to be exoefted from her— yet such considerations did not .circumscribe the naval exertions of the Country. , In adverting to the:naval conduit of the late War, some Gentlemen in their,candour seemed to forget, that t.vo Fleets alone ever. escaped from the. conquering Nay of Great Britain. Whenever the Enem ) 's Fleets joined battle, it was but to ensure new. triumphs for England, and new laurels to the Commanders of her vitiOrious Fleets. At the present .crisis, when France strained every nerve to collect a Naval Force, and which by dint of exertion they created in a marine; pocky artificial. Should it be said, that, England; Maritime England, should not exert herself in an equal degree, .and open new sources to ensure her maritime preponderance,? Ad verting to an idea idea thrown out by an Hon. Gen. tleman,, that his arguments went, to recommend . the disbanding Vessels of the Line, and an abolition of the King's Yards, he observed he had to complain of that as a misrepresentation of his argument, as he had in some other instances. It was with surprise he heard that Honourable AdMiral make him say, that no assistance was. to be expected from Ships of the Line. He would appeal to the recolleaion of Gentlemen, if he had ever uttered so ridiculous, or so absurd a sentiment. This led him into some detailed observations on that part of .Na val, taaics. In deep water he was perfectly aware of the service of Ships of the Line : Frigates and other large Vessels were proportionably service_ able even in the attack of-a Flotilla, but he donbied, whether these could destroy so large .a rpropor., lion of them as would be necessary, in the few hours of sailing previous to the time pf their. de barkation—large vessels would, at least,..throw them into confusion, but with the description of Vessels he had in view, the advantage could.. best be followed up and' improved. Speaking olpaits of our Coast, in the defence of which the smaller de. scriptions of Vessels would' be, of essential service, he instanced the shore from Havant to Portsmouth, off many parts of which the water was so shoal, that large Ships, however serviceahle they may be in mid channel, were totally. unable to follow them. That such a force as he had in contemplation might easily 'be set afloat, was proved, by ttie fad of a great number of Volunteer Gun-boats which . were offered to Government, and that with a Most laudable spirit and zeal, notwithstanding the discouragement held out by the present Boatel of Admiralty. Another species of Naval Force in which they Were greatly deficient at present, was'of A large description of vessels ;"he principally alluded so Gun brigs, these were favourably spoken of by the o o po sets of the Motion, ; they constituted ,a very effica cious part of ,the force,at preseot under tord KEITH , to the number of 20 ; and these Brigs w ere built under 'the Naval Administration of Elrl SP ENC E and were subsequently employed with tie .iporoba tion of his successor Ea'rl ST. VINCk NT. Several Gun-boats were ordered by the tateoe e teehie y the same model of those' but in the idle War, with this not-immateriA differc•ncr, Ci't'y ttetc a, longer time in 'building, and Ic ) .s pttica in .the c'xccutton, when built.

In the much-vaunted keforms of the Admiralty ,he d i these considerations would be kept separate e wise a" t ee e dent men would rett what may be injurious in pra v and retain that which waS serviceable. . He' wa s s°rc observe that much unfounded prejudice obtained ay,aillsmere pradice of building - Ships of War by Contract, and In. chants' Yards; yet the plan was most successfully upon in the late and in the American War. • The stteess`h e, of the late Naval Administration spoke much. againstlen. practice Of hiring' Vessels, and yet they acted upon the l? lie here entered into some comparative statements ofit small craft, Gun-boats, and Armed Cutters, einploYet;_d different periods in the date War and in the present, er— concluded by Observing, that though the greater crt gency - and necessity existed for this species of i or ce, stil Lq was, procured in a much less degree ; and be cootended ti l t * , such.

Feeling the truth of this state 'on case as he did, he-Must aver that the re Hired inforM at &., was Ito less necessary in point of candour to the Board.of miralty, than it was due injustice to the Public. lele , rePe l ' e ere in a tine strain of irony and ridicule, those shafts Whic .b ; vo - le 'directed againsrliim by different Gentlemen' who oppos e( ' Notion, and dwelt with :lie happiest% success on tile incon'us r, sisteneles displayed by the Board of Admiralty, in vary parrs,of its tencluct.
