The 'Right Ho ; uottrahle 'Mover having , beeit Mistaken with --re spect to the .runiour he had mentioned, had failed in - the. only strung ground he had stated 'for - tlie prbduction of the accounts. He shOuld, -however, sbortly,a4vert to the expellee of the di plomatic department. The diplomatic. establish ments not forming ,part. of the regal splendotir of the Crown, had increased from causes to which! he 'had called 'the attention of the HOuSe..• Indeed, , - aS'lle•lnid'e'xplained', 'the increase of the Civil List expenditure had rather- arisen from political cir cumstances, than from-any excess in the expenses of the h'onsehold. The great expenses which had attended the mission 'to Lisbon in the two last years,•hutl been roc of-the causes. The missions alluded to by,. the Right ilomiurable Mover, had taken place . uuder . peculiar circumstances. The riission Of • Lord'Stewart . Was - of a mixed na ture, that 'Noble • Lord , having borne both a ;civil and '►military character. Lord Clancarty Was dispatched to Holland from the temporary neces sity.arsing from. the gloriOnS revolution in that country, of sending a Minister imlned:ately to the • Hague.- • Neither of • these Noblemen would :be . grititlo,l9,anyaither 11; warq than the satisfaction of. havintf served their country in sulendid; thouoli tai themselves expeus;ve situations. As to the • appointment •'of the present A.nibaSsador to •the _Court Of. Lisbon, it had been remarked on with a .. degreeof acrimony kVll:_rh have arisen from nothing but' miss The departnre of the Right . 1 - icon, - Gentleirian'-(Mr. Canning) from this country had been remarked on as if he. had. wished to screen himselt - fronirthe remarks made in that ,House. •Now he. thought - there.. was no place where Mr Canning would be less ashamed to appear. l'in2 only possible objection which conk{ he made torhe appointment of Mr. Can ning was, that a As , splendid ould,*it might have been , said, sufficed ; that Mr. Sydenham alright have remained at Lisbon. in ans,%er to 'this, - he 'could state, that this mission of Mr. Sy.dentaiii•nad been in sonic tneaSnre'aceidental, as it was absolntely.,necessary that Sir C. Stewart' - should be . re;easM; he ',had also most earnestly itnplOred to •he removed on account of -his health. Another Minister was necessarily required. to tie sent. ,Conlditbe said that on the.arrival of the "Prince Rugent , of Portugal to his country, which had been saved.byßritisll v.alonr sold exertion; if cvery. kind, from the )Brazils, whence he had-kreel). escorted by the Britisi Navy, there should not be a splendid miSiOntoetiiigratiliate. !inn on his re ; turn 3•;.--.-Ai to the purchase of the honse - at Paris for the . iXiki ofWellingtOn, ourAinh2s , i:tdor there, the cxpence, wind(' fall On : the GiYil List. But as' the ptireicase was to t r completed only in four _ years, p. 0 3 ,- p r: quar.er.of the w;hole 6t/lp would be pawl in the priis - ent year. both, had,been . .,.thotight 'advantageous, both, by the tgoble l)a'siador nod other persons acquainted with the CMII , IWICCS..; would be of opinion Alnii It Wa's most reTtigiie that our Ambassador lit Piance sbeinlet be lodged respectably and ho nourably, .and iio other. place conic( be.obtained an terms as iligible. • The Right Hon. Gentle • ,•manconeltided by stating, that as'the Right _Hun. „Moter.had laid no ground for depart ;ng,frour the usual - practice of 'Parliament, lie slibuld oppose the motion. Mr. Tinas:EY again,contlemned the purehase uf a hoh: . e !or the Duke. of ,Wellington in Paris, and the appoin!ment o' 11a. Canning to Lisbon. tie 'had, he believed; named thamission of Mr. Cali . ning a .icapclulous.ipb however:the Chancellor of the ExAcquOr was' offended at it, this was the term which, when such a transaction was Carried on, was always applied to it hY .well-disposcd Christians 5 . it was the approximate word, and had always been irsy(f-in . garliamentary language ; and it was peculiarly applicable to this, which he should wry abominable job. The way iii which all the friends of the Annoassador to Lisbon had been provided for was very astonishing. To ail those who could not get .sonic place, or a seat in the Privy Council, an filler had heel] made that they should . be Created. Baroncm. He believed that there was then an embryo Baronet (roic of Mr. Canning's.frietins) iit the House. .The Members of Mr. tantring's squad, if that was a Pin liatnentary . word, were .like the holders of tiek;ls, in the last lottery, in whiCh there were _no.,bla.eks... As Mr. C. had taken so much care of his friends, it was not surprising that ;he had taken some _little . care of himself. ',,However happened,,so, t hat the expense was saddled:on the back of this unfortunate country, which, if the outfit were added to the. appointment.,-,would -not, be less, in the ensuing-:year, than . come out of the Civil 'List. Would '.the , Right. • Honourable. Gentleman then say, that-he:had not, _.inade'out • a ease to call for the aceouno:,? , He, contended that such a case was,irresi . stilde, ,and be d'ivided but two Gentlemen, he should take the .sense ofthe House onthequestion... Mr. HIJSKis:sON contended, that the Right [ion. Gentleman had completely tailed ut making out case to prove the propriety of layinv: before the : House the documents called for. .Übtil the year, ISO 4, no accounts. td this nature were ever pro-, duccd, unless when a Message from tbe.. : Crowtt trnnonneed an exceeding in the Civil List ; though, prior t,) that period, he .believ,ed the arrears, in particulor deptrtments, were frequent ly, very great. la. 48Q4r.in consequence of seven quititereing : d:ue in : sonte of, the dePart mews; Parlian,nt was cailed upon to. : look into the, State of the Civil List, and a very large sum was vo cd to cover the deficicficy. Au Act was then pass ccl, by:which it was provided, that if any branch Of the Civil List was inore than two tioarters in arrear, then ahe - account should'be subidit!c,i to 'Parliament: Now; - it was quite . sufficient tO mention this statute, 'for the pUrpose of She,Wiag what the sense of the Legislature was on the -subject: The etiactinent to which he had re ferred, clearly proved that a motion 'for 'papers of thiS description was not, as the Right lion. Gen ilematt seemed to suppose, a Mere matter Of Course; hutahat, in certain cases only, they were .to•be la:d before Parlitunent. Then came the second Act, of which the Right [lon. Gentlealan had spolten by Which it was pro - % bled', that if the ,Civil List, ,on any future occasion, exceened the average of tree nine preceding years, an account of the expenditure shotild be placed on the table. But the Right Idon..Gentlethan had not proYed that any breach of either of these Acts of Parlia menthad takeo'place.' Many'of the Points whieh . the Right, Hiin. 664himan had touched upon were so" coMpleiely answered by his Right Ho nourable Friend - (Mr. Vansittort) that there was no necessity for hint to notice them. Bat he felt it necessary to make a few observatiOns tin that part of speech, hi whHi he had, inade personal attack on his Itight lion. Friend (Mr. Canning). lie seemed to have entirely Miscon ceived his Right Hon. Friend's appointment. He had Stated, on what authority be knew` nett •that Lord Castlereagh had reduced Mr. Svdeoh nes• appointment, at the Court of Lisbon, to 3,5001.. .- If his Lordship had done this, 'it must have dteen. under the impression that his appointmeot was not of a permanent nature. Now the .rank of that Court, and the dignity which it, was neces sary for the representative of the Crown of Great Britain to support there, required at least a Minister Plenipotentiary. The salary of an Of ficer of that rank was not 8,5001; but 6,0001.. • per annum. Therefore, the Hight' fl motirable Gentleman must either he tinder a misittke with respect to 'Mr. Sydenham's Salary—or his appoint ment could only haVe been that of Charge d'Af faires. It was not improbable, inconsequence'of . the extraordinary •expences incurred in the (Unlit matic department, at Madrid and Lisbon, in the two preceding years, that ',orders ,have been issued to contract them as much as possible ; but - he-Could not imagine that all discretion,' with reference to their' eXpendittire, yeas witlidraWn from our Ministers at those Courts . - - --and that they were peremptorily required mit to exceed a cer tain sum tinder any- circumstances. - hie had frequently heard it asserted in the Honse, when the question wasCousidered - abStractedly, with out refereur:e to particular, persons, that the al lowances granted to our Ambassadors were too small. If such were the fact,' no, other course cot.thl be pursUed, than to enlarge their salaries, or else to - invest them with a diicreCon to draw for sodh stuns as their necessary expences demanded. He would, therefore, put it to the Right HOn. Gentleman, whether, if a foreign resident, whose salary was 3,sook — per ann. - was, under peculiar. - circumstances, obliged tO'call fOrfioool. additional, he would deem such an occurrence as %Yorthy bf the grave consideration of ,Parliatnetit ? Would' he conciddr it extravagant,o'hon the Ere bassy to Lis- . bon, which had, in the two last years, cost up wards .01.20-;000/: was-suddenly reduce+ to-a-very small allowance, -if an additional sum were called for ? In the case of - his Riglit Frith - a - (Mr.. Canning) this discretiottary power had been taken away. The allowance appeared to be 14,0001. per ann. ; hut the fact was, that his salary amount ' ed to 8,000/. and Le was'dii'ected not to permit the expences of his office to exceed the remaining 6,000. and to keep as mach within it as possible. It .shottld not : he forgotteu, that this country had at.Lishon a very large Commissariat aod Military Staff—and he believed the allowance tri the . Com mander in.Chiel • was greats{' than that of the Ambassador. lie ntearit not to justify the .one expense by the,Other—but when they coasidered the high rank of ten Ambassador there was reason to think that the salary was not too high. An Honourable Gentleman (Mr. Whitbread) had, on a former night, observed that there was no Itusi tress to he transacted at the COurt of Li:sbou, - and that his Right Hon. Friend might •klfllilFC himself reading. Cantoens, and.Writing : sonnets.—(Eleur, hear, lrear!)-- 7 -11e could not look upon this em- bossy as a matter of so trifling a not are, wheti lie considered .the ancient colinection between the - two coontries, and tbe necessity that existed for continuing it, Even if the mission of his Right Hon. Friend procured the least additional chance., that the abominable traffic in !Inman flesh; Which the Honourable Gentleman was accustomed to _.reprobate so warmly, would be abolished, he con ceived that alone was sufficient to make them pause, before they called on the conntry fir consi-' der the Embassy to Lisbon as a gross and scanda lous job. Ide knew not, what leisure his Right Pion. Friend's situation might afford ; but if -he had any, and that literature engaged his at he hoped he Avould ecintinue to write with the . same loyal and patriotic spirit which had often delighted though it inightbave . displeased the Hun.
