PIECE GOODS,
and expefts immediately a general and frefh as
sortment, Portsmouth, Nov. 4, 1799.
Mr. Pitt explained what he meant by the deli
• iterance of Europe, it was to annihilate all repub
lics, and to reflore to France her ancient form of
government, [i. e. defpotifm.]
If there exists a person, said he, who will at
tempt to maintain that the exigence of a repub
lic is compatible with our fafety and that of Eu
rope, I wish to come to issue with him upon that
point, and fordy it will not be difficult to prove,
that there is no fafety for any country, while the
intolerable tyranny of the French republic fubtifts.
We mud persevere, all Europe would have been
loft without our efforts to snatch it from the fangs
of the tyrants of France. If Mr. Tierney believes
that our fafety only depends upon reftrifting
France within the bounds of her ancient limits, he
and I do not agree. While the republicanizing
system (hall subsist in France, there will be no trafr
quility for Europe. Safety is my objeft, bt*
what fafety is there in the character, the conduft
and the motives of the present goverment of
France ?
Mr. Tierney in reply: Mr. Pitt has declared
that we were in the 7th year of a war against that
fy item, thus we are lavishing blood and treasure to
combat the abrtract principles of a republic, with
out paying any regard to the distressed situation in
which we ourselves are. The minister has openly
avowed his intentions, it is not, fays he, against
the power of France that we are Uruggling, but
against her system, we do not only mean to con
fine her within her ancient limits, but to force her
to return to her ancient principles—the result is
that we are to continue the war against France un
tit we force her to abjure her cunftitution of the
3d year, which the has sworn to maintain.
It is contrary to the spirit of the English people
to impose by force a government upon France,
and it is contrary to common sense, to excite a
crusade against the rights and liberties of a nation,
gc. &c.
'Mr. Windham, Secretary at war, Reported Mr.
Pitt's opinion, that our fafety did not to much de
pend on the reduftion'of the territory of France,
as on the nature of her government and her revo
lutionary principles. We must, said he, CHANGE
HtR government, and confine her within her
ancient limits ; but we cannot conflantly maintain
tltfye an army cf Auflrians and Ruffians. There
fore we Must restore monarchy to france.
Sir William Pultney exposed the impolicy of the
minster's declaration, which he considered as the
Manifesto of AN ETERNAL war What an
impudence, mid he, for a British Parliament to dis
cuss what form of government it will be pleased to
give to the pe^le of France ! !
• Mr. Pitt,' in a very long speech, answered all the
,objections : (poke of the great extent of his Jchem.es,
and of tfe failure of the negoc&iqns formerly set
on foot with France.
Lord —^ : I am an ememy to all kinds of
subsidies for the benefit of other nations. Prussia
frd Germany, who received our money, and
made peace without consulting us, convince me of
the inconvenience of these subsidies. Th? one now
proposed, is so much the more suspicious, that the
Emperor of Russia is at too great a diflance from
the French republic to be afraid of of her aggref
fipns—He can have no object in view but our mo-
But, upon the whole, what can properly be the
motives of the present war ? Is it a war of moral
ity, and is it carried on in order to punish France
for the crimes (he has committed ? But who is to
constitute himfelf a judge, and to pass sentence on
France ? Is it to be the king of Prussia or the Em
peror of Russia,- who firft raised the fandard of
jobbery and plunder by destroying the King of Po
land and pofeffing themselves of his dominions ?
Will it be the Austrian Emperor, who not fatisfied
with having participated in the plunder of Po
land made use for similar purposes of the French
themselves, and accepted Venice from their hhnds,
Venice which he now oppresses and tyrannizes o
yer ? Which of them will be daring enough to call
the firft done at France ? And were we to call up
oil all nations to march against usurpers, robbers,
and plunderers, would they not direct their course
to Petersburg and Vienna, indead of marching un
to Paris ? ; ,
[The usurpations, robberies and plunder of the
British in India, and on the neutral trifle fit easy
on the conscience of this English lordling.]
»oufe of Commons
n committee of the whole on the king's message
relative to the Ruffian subsidy.
Mr. Pitt, in a very long speech, congratulated
the boufe on the hopes of feeing the balance of Eu
rope soon re-established, and on the propped of
feeing ancient principles, curtoms and habits re
sume their influence over a(l nations, thanks to his
majesty's efforts, and those of his great and mag
nanimous ally, the emperor of all the Ruffias. —
Any treaty with France, he said, was incompat
ible, with the fafety of Great-Britain. 1 move,
,3id tie, that £825,000 sterling be granted to ful
fil the King's engagements with Kuffia—his Majef
ty?smaffagr contains other objects for which a
larger fam will be neceflary. I intend to move a
vote of credit for three millions llerling, which
will be fufficient to affiftthe queen of Portugal and
the Swiss.
Mr. Tierney asked whether the motives which
actuated the Emperor of Kuffia and the British
administration were the fame ? How do 1 know,
said he that he will not apply this money to the
advancement of his own views, without any re
gard to those of the British nation? The deliver
ance of Europe is your objeft, but my opinion is
that Russia means to aggrandize herfelf at the ex
pencerf France. The deliverance of Europe mud
be equally interesting to Russia, why then does not
Russia coptribute her own means to the success of
her own cause?
