IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. LOUSE OF PEERS. • ,4014bAYOSAY IS. The Marquis (late Earl) of EXETER, was introduced with the accustomed tbrinalities, sworn, and took ins Seat. The Bills upon the Table were forwarded in their respec tive stages-=and; a number which were brought- np from-the Commons, weer severally read a first time. I A short conversation ensued between't he Earl of 'Su F FOLK, the CHANCFtLLOK,. Lord TIIUKLOW, and .the Mar quis TOW NSIIY.ND, - in consequence of . the first named -Peer wishiw• to present a . Petition from a person of the name of .7%, - ,bn germ-, relative .to ceftain gr . ii - .Avanee., which he al ledl;ed to have suffered durihg. his conhbement. The Noble Earl professed not ,to have entirely read the Petition,, but front what he had read of-it, together with the previous informa tion he had upon the subject, he said, that a case sufficiently strong was Made out for the attention olthei r Lordships ; and, he ;intimated his inteht,ion of bringing forward one or two Motions upon the-subject in the course of the week. The. other Peers,adverteA strongly to the impropriety- of - receiving a Petition, respecting the contents of which, the Lord who presented it, - avowedly was not thoroughly informed; it might contain impertinence, slander, Oellons, or others matter,- for which the individual, so addressing the -House, was liable to be punished. • Their Lordships fully admitted the-right of the Subject, iniducent and orderly manner, to petition that House through the ntedittin of one of its Mem hers ; 'but evinced that the tendency of thOConstitutional restrickions was to keep the right in question from abuse, and to preserve it inviolate to those who were to be,benefited by it. The result was, as we eduld cdllea, the Noble Earl, in the present instance, deelined presentio,; the Pctitien. The.LORD CHANCELLOR reported, in the lisuaLwayi, to their Lordships, the Letters h recelvzd fronvAchniral4 Sif HYDE PAKKER: and Lord Netsos, in..anstver to hie, tir. 111)11 , :n., tO thCTSC Officers. • The • Earl of SUFFOL I: Called their Lordships' attenkion to the great tend signal merits of the late General AaEtt ea OMB.", which he thought well merited the particular of that House. He adverted to the erc:.tion of a suit..bi‘..; Monument to his memory; in St. Paul's Cathedra!, seemed to allude to the great readiness of Parliainent to cc.ir.t.- forwarci on such occasions, where' Naval Officers were .con. cemed, adistinotion to which he thought those of the Lind .Forces every way entitled': His Lordship also alluded, ^s -ye understood hint, to the circumstance attic General' left a numerous fancily, atiii:beemed to hint at the propriety . of a posthumous remuneration that Way, of his mems. • TT; EiiiiiITOSLITIV - relltitstea tho Noble Earl to - ret;olled, - that regular notices had been given h. His Majesty's Mini sters ot an intention to'cometorward•on that.very-day, in - that 'branch of the,Legislature, where the Conttitutiona) power of originating such matters was More particularly veste 7 .l,' and - . begged him not to anticipate what they sitoul i . propose, by pre nature, though well meant interference, a Lis part. , The Earl of SUFFOLK, in reply, professed, thlt• hid lie known su.,:h notices were given, he should not haVe troubled their Lordships with the observations he had just'made. A tthort conversation ensued bet %veen the Earlof C VO,N, Lord Tnua Law, .and the LORD - CHANCELLOR, rc speclihg.i Petition presented by the first named Peer, as we understood, from an Oilicer of the name of WILLI Aus, in the service of the lEastindia Company; and how in India, setting, forth the paiticular 'circumstances of his case, with respect to the adultCTOUS' behaViour of his wife in that Cou'n try,_ from whom he prayed fgr. leave that a Bill might be brought in to divorce huu, stating the regular steps which had been taken in the , Courts , o(ludicature. in Calcutta; &C. and setting, forth thee - great inconveuidritx; and, in some points of view, imprae;licability of producing salisfaaory• oral evi dence at their I,pidships' Bar,. on account .of .the itilmense distance of the residence- of the part ie the religious preju dices of some of the,Witnes, natives of India, and other uriav4idablowitoward circumstances'.; . :and, as' we could col.'l lea, praying that the Affidavits of the Witnessei, regularly made in India, may be 4eceived,at thcit Lordships' : Bar as wit dence. Respecting such a line of proceeding, Lord THV Low appeared to consider it as inadmissible, and dwelt upon the great advantages of a personal examination 'of the Wit nesses,' from which cireumStances often transpired as to aflea the very fate of the Case. The Loan CHANCELLOR SeeMOd to be of a similar opinion, .and observed; !that in not opposing the' PetitiOn's lying upon the Tablci a lhe it to thot UP did no 3' himself to 3 , ( 1 the prayer of it. • The Earl qfCRRN.eIIiPON - shertly spoke in explanation, after which, the Petition was ordered to lie upon the Thule.

THANKS TO THE ARMY IN EGYPT. The Order of the Day relative to this subjea,being read, LOrd HOB>IRT, pursuant to the notice be had given; rose to bring forward the neceisary Motions. —lle observed; that froin his etfidial situation, the task fell to him, of moving for the Honour of their Lordships' Thanks to those gallant ()Meth and SOldiers who had' recently so eminently distin guishedthemselves in Egypt. TO expatiate upon their m 0... rits would, he conceived, be"a presumption in him : he was aware,- that no panegyric which he could bestow, :could enhance their merits in , the estimation . 'cif th eir Lordships these, he thought , lvere . .best` . elpressed in tbeimodeste-and sensible recitals . of those who transmitted the official - a c c o unts of the operations' of the Army to this Country. Their Lordships might haVe heard many diets rent accounts respeel. ing, these, but he could assure them,. from every thing he had been able to colledl, that a greater degree of valour, zeal, and patriotism, were never • manifested on any. other occasion; the difficulties I.vhiJi these gallant Troops had to encounter, and the modes adopted - ot suirnotinting th6m, must have made aniridelible impression on their Lordships' minds, and : lest he should diminish, instead df adding to these iinpressions, he .411901 observe no ftfrthir on , that head.--. His Lordship then adverted' to the itiii6h lani'dnied fate of the gallant and meritorious Ansa cßODittiY. He, wished, he sited, he could place at the head of - the list of names , rie should have.tozoto that of Sir Rn t.rri Aare. crtomay,' Whose courage and conclud so often manifested on fOrmer occasions, was equalled by that' intrepidity and coed- . ness which lie exhibited on the membrable day in which be loft hislife in the service of his Country.—To endeavOur to impiess thase conSidetations on their tordshipS' minds, must .te superfluous. , His Own sense 'of - thn could not be better cxpressed thin by the feeling and appropriate la n g u age in which the gallant Of fi cer who succeeded to the command, lamented his cleat!,:—" Were it permitted for a Soldier ro "' regret any one Who has fallen in - the service of his Coun • " try, I might be excused fur lamenting turn more than any " other person ; but it is ,sorne consolation to those who " tenderly lo ved 'him, that as his life vitas - honourable, so " was his death glorious. memory will be *recorded in " the annals of his Country, will be sacred to citify British " Soldier, and embalmed in the recolledtion ofa grateful Pos. " terity I"—His Lordship then Mcried; " Thatthe Thanks of the House be given to 11.1ajor General the Honourable Joiix HELY liu r c tit Nsiik,lictajors General EYRE Coora, JOTIN MOOR E, the Earl of CAV AN, &C. &C. let their spirited! and heroic exertions, when, in spite of local difficulties, and the desperate attack ofa powerful and well prenared Army, on the 21$t of March, i ot, the British Arm obtained a brilliant Victory, ire." [For a detailed Report of the remaining Votes of Thanks see the Proceedings of the liouse of,Commonsd Tte Earl of MOIRA said, that what he had repeatedly told their Lordships was now• exemplifrA, ,namely, that whenever his Brother Soldiers had a fair opportunity pi slicw_ ing it, they would manifest a degree of ardour, disciplii e, andhravcry equal to that hitherto so often shown in the course of this War, by the Navy. The Motion for Thanks,l of course had his•most cordial concurr e nce, and 'he wished: to add his warmest testimony. to the praise so deservedly; showered by the _Noble Lord on' those Of fi cers who com-1 inanded the gallant Army in ,tinestion. He : felt .it his! derv, however painful it may be to offer any thing that! .411 t possibly interrupt the unanimity of the House on; such, an ocesswn, to &pave, . that the number of British! . lives lost in Egypt was a consideration of the most pain ful kind, and the more so, when they coniciered, that it was to be' attributed to the miscondud of the late sters t hut, for which it.certainly,woilld have been unneccs. sary. . His lordship then.adverted to the .unfavourableness or the (lima') of Egypt for a British Army, and the great difficulties which they had to surmount, anpartietilarly to the atledged lad, that the pOssessioh of Egypt by the Ene- • my, was the principal eimutrisuincc which stood in the way of a Pacification, :and concluded with expressing his wiali, that the miscondud which wrought "such deArudive conse quences may not be ?:434(.1 over in silence. Lend ATULGRAPE replied /o the. Noble tart at some lengt4, in a speech equally fratight with argument, anima tions' and eloquence.—[To this, as well as to the subsequent Debate, we regret that out_very contra4ed Paths preclude us from 'icing that justice we could wish, and precrtide from stating any -other than a very general outline.l- , -His Lordship expressed his regret that the harmony of theliouse on such an - occasion should be interrupt:xi bribe introduition of any irre:evant matter. He then; after expressing higeon eurrehce in w:tat had fallen from the Noble Earl, and his Noble Friend, respecting the very meritorious conduet of the Army in question, which he described as having transcended all ettlogium,-entered.into-s detail-exposition ofsomt alb principal operation, of the Army, which he praised, either wittr respect to•the-coisiudlof the Leaders, or the valour dis th layed by the Troops, on.e various occasions, as exceeding kilt 'thing that 'took placeirt the prelerdWar. Lord Hos u,:r then moved .in the usual way, the Thanks a the House to,fhe Non-commissioned Officers and Soldiers, Which, toget'hur• wit h the foregoing Thanks to the Oak:err: commanding the same, were voted His Lordship then proposed - the Thanks , of the House, ta Admiral Lord K IT )1 , to whose conduit the Noble . Lord paid some handsome compliments, as well, s to Itear-Adini ral.Sir It. Bic En T ON, , who was included in the Motion. The DiliT'of CLARENCE wished to know, if it was in tended-tOmove the 'Thanks of the House - to -Sir Sinr►EY. 3!di if it on the present eccasion ? Lord HOBART seemed to answer in the negative : it was a paha that required signe eonsiderition. Ther::. were many Offieers; in - both' linr.s of service. of higher rank than the gal lant Officer alluded to by the Royal'Unke, for whose tran se:mutant professional merits no one ex)chl entertain a more profound respeci ; but thgre was a dcgtee of delicacy and dif ficulty on such occasions, oft insurmountable; and upon the whole, in the present instance,' it was not considered is necessary to propose any . spcciflc Vote 'of Thanks to the Otliccr in question. • A conversation of some length here ensued, and ofa rather &suitor) and irregulr.: nature, principally twitvcen His Royal Hi),;;ltiL:)s and Lord c kloaa ict L antkin winch,lords DARN LEY, ot INGDON, AUCK I.

The DUKE sf CLARENCE observed, that both the Offi cers hemeant to thank were Land as welt as Sea O tlicen;, the one was a Colonel since 1784, the other since' 186. The LORD CHANCELLOR professed the highest resped for the chintder of Sir Saw; VT - Ss : - t of wtwm . he 4ad such a fa-votir.ible opinion as to believe, that the non-acqui escence of "the House in the proposed Motion would not in, the leis: hurt his - feelings, when -the general interest of the Service- was likely to bc-lenctited by . such a proceeding...- After score explanatoryconversation between some of the 'Noble Lords abov::- ment ioned, resped'aig the former conditel of the House on timilar.dceasions. the Dux: of CLAxaarot agreedefor the present, to withdraw his Nfotion.

I rise, ;Sir, in consequence of a notice, wh ich I gave on Friday last, to call the atten t i on of the House to an important subjea. In referring to the Journals of.the House I find that on an occasion, in many respeas similar, an occasion which operated to produce both joy and regret in this Country, I mean that of the account of the death of General W9LF, and the success 'of the British Army before Quebec ; Sir , when that was made known in this House, the first proceeding was to pay a tribute of debt and justice to the General, anti that before they marked their sense of gratitude and acknow. 10dgetnent to the ViEtorious Army Sir, it is my w isii to imitate that case, and to pursue the course which was then followed. On each occasion the British Army, gained the .Vitiory,---on. each occa sion it sustained the loss of a distinguished Genera. Sir, on the Meth of that distinguished Man who was recently lost to this Country, and who lately commanded the Army in Egypt, it is unnecessary • for the to 'speakHis merits are known to every man in this Kingdom ; they are described by his successor in a manner that does honour to them both, and I have no doubt, but that in every re speet§ the genuine British sentiment which animated the one is possessed by the Other, and that Spirit --which might-in-bias be-counted on...ind.P.Onsidered . as instrumental in enabling a man to signalize him. self in the service of his Countik," wilt bC conspL " - WM also in General Hu"teniersost,sanci that he w ail prove an able and valuable Successor to the Great Man who preceded him in a career of Giory.--Sir, on the charade! ,of Sir RALPH AB SIIC:ROMISY - § abstain from saying more than that he closed a Life of Honour by a: Death Of. Glory, He bore a Fame which the breath of calumny never reached.: H e Was respeded; honoured and revered, by the Officer - a with' ivhbta he associated, and was obeyed and adored by the Army which he comManded. Within a few minutes befOrd I came to the House this day, I saw a Letter; inWhich justice is done to the me mory of that Great Officer, an Extraa of which, with the permission of the House,. I will read." . [Here Mr. ADDINGTON read part of a Letter from an OfACer in EgYpt, Stating, " that they all gave themseii es.up entirely to the guidance of their Commander, being impresse4 with a sense of his superior genius'; that they emulated each other, but the contest was only who should obtain the greatest shale of his approbation. and esteem, and thit Sir RALPH ABERCROMBY was, in their estimations placed among the most striking and distinguished charatc.lers of the age in which'he lived."] " I shall only add (said Mr. ADDINGTON), that . His Majesty, with that gracious -disposition which he has ever manifested'to do - honour to the memory Of all who have served, particularly who have fallen in, the service of their Country, has direttel. that the Standard taken at the Vidory. in Egypt, should adorn the Monument-of the Officer who has done such eminent -Service, and ordered-it to be preserved as a Memorial of his . rnefit, and toexpress the .sense Which - His Majesty and his Peopteenter- * rain of his - ch - arader.
