Was mind. Your lordship now declares
opehly for ver,-ad bsiy so doing have chkng
ed your ground ; not that there is any dis
serence' in {he tendency of your measures
for several year: post . but what you could
not bring edout courtly, you now attempt
openly. It must be confined you have Inn

an ing " they ere sorry the thing was bro', t

' that some of )our dear friends, whtle they
E are compelled to run down the gutter, as it
were ; and stand god father for your boot
ling, wish bath you and the child were in
close hug with " Old Nick." si
As your lordship has determined on war
it might lie as well to set down and " count
the cost." Pcrhaps your lordship has cal
culated more wisely, by reserring. that sub
ject to the first lord of the treasury, who
has very sngaciously laid down this axiom,
" that a man can never want money while
ss he is able to borrow." And the aphorism
of the inimqrtal poet concerning that dead
ly disease—" the horrid consumption ds the
purse—borrowing lingers and lingers it out
but the disease is incurable"—is laid by as
it were upon :: musty shelf, with that rub
bish and lumher, as your followers are
siplcased to call treatics upon the law of na- ss
tions—doubtless for the best reason in the
world—because they do not understand
them. it willreadily be consesaed by all
your lordship's friends, that there is more
good sense in this axiom of the chanccllor
of the exchequer, than in the whole of the ss
treasurer's report: There is, however,one
reﬂection which seems rather (otherwise-—
namely, how is the capacity of borrowing
to continue (what is credit) when the means
of resunding are not apparent? ! will tell
you my lord, the only answer which can,
or is in any way requisite to be given, is
this—that of all sunds the worst fund is re
sund; and when you borrow] (especially
for the purpose of carrying on war) never
think of this drsgrucchrJ/imd.
Now " I am up," my lord, permit me
to tellyou, [shall say no more to you at
this time.
I sincerely hope that whoever may read ]
this address to his lordship, will not think ss
I have dealt too freely with the high chan- ss
cellor. 'It will be perceived that ! am truly 4
his friend, and thit ] much admire him?
for his honesty, intelligence, patriotism, f
and universal benevolenee ;qualities which ]
he is known eminently to possess. What *
greater evidence can we have of these 'sacts l
than his ardent desire sor war? First his l

the savages to mannere our citizens on our
defenceless frontiers. His patriotism in
placing our country in this forlorn situation,
inwhich we should be obliged to seek alli
sianco and triendship with him, whose uni
versal philanthsopy is such, that he is de

not arise from any thing said or done by the
member of this house in the sullilment of
his duties as a representative in the Con
grese of the Unitetl Statu
Your Committee are of opinion that this
latter circumstance may be received in ex
sstenuation, but cannot be admitted in justifi
cation of the act done by Mr. Coles—And
from all the circumstances of the case they
are of opinion that the said assault and vio—
lence oﬀered to the member was a breach of
the privileges of this house.
Your committee further report, that they
have considered the letter of Mr. Coles to
the Speaker of this house, together with
another letter from Mr. Coles addressed to
the chairman of your committee (which
they also bcg leave to, report to the house)
that these two letters, in the opinion of your
committee do contain ncknowledgements
and apologies on the occasion which ought
to be admitted as satisfactory to the house.
They therefore recommend the following
resolution.
Resolved, That any further proceeding
in the above case is unnecessary. !

it, he was of opinion that the notice taken
of it in the reeolutiune was improper: He
[ likewise stated that it" Mr. ]ackeou had in
