PARLIAMENT.
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
v London, Feb. 19.
Breach ef Privilege.
Mr. Torke rose to call ilic attention of the '■
House to what he thought a gross violation of
their privileges. Either those privileges
existed, or they did not. If they did exist,
it was the bounded duty of that House to de
fend them from tlnv.e gross and wanton at
tacks, that went in a great degree to cpiesti
on, whether they had such privileges or not
The attack, of which lie now complained,
was not a mere newspaper paragraph, it was
a placard stuck upon the walls of the nietro_
p ilis, challenging the eye of the passengers,
and openly defying all consequences. If
that House had privileges to maintain, he
thought in his heart, that, it was high time
to assert them—(Bear l hear ! J—For the
liberty that had been taken witn his name,
by those persons, he ft t nothing but the most
profound contempt—the placard to which
he alluded, was headed with the names of
me i\igui nonorauie vxentteman opposite
(Mr. Windham) and of himself. This same
placard which announced itself as the jour
nal of a sort of speaking club, called** The
British Forum'* stated to the public, that
** last Monday, after an interesting discussi
on, it was unanimously decided, that the en
forcement of the standing orders, by shut
ting out strangers from the Gallery of the
K -use of Commons, ought to be censured as
an insidious and ill timed attack upon the
liberty of the press, as tending to aggravate
the discontents of thu people, and to tender
their Representatives obj^ts of jealous sus
picion.” Here they had their most valuable
privileges attacked, their standing orders
were Censured, and they themselves were
menaced ; for the question upon the proprie
ty of enforcing those orders had been recently
before the house, and the propriety of that
proceeding was confirmed by a very conside
labie majority. He had been bred up in
those habits of veneration for the constitute
on, that he must of necessity reVeie the lib
erty of the press as one of the most efficient
guardians of that constitution.—Mat he thu’t
that the liberty of the press has no more
formidable enemy than the licentiousness
of tiie press, and,as a sincere and zealous
advocate for the former, he trusted he should
never be wanting in his efforts topnnbh and
restrain the latter.—His first proposition
would be to deliver the paper at the table ;
the next that it should he read by the clerk,
and that the clause of the bill of rights rel
alive to privilege of the debate, should be
also read ; aiul lastly, he should move that
tire printer sho.,ld be required to attend at
the bar of the House to morrow. Mr. Yoi k.e
then delivered in the paper, which was
read by the clerk, and was in substance as
follows :—
" lilt it i s h Forum — Mr. Yorke Sc Mr.
VV INDIIAM.
Then followed the question for the eve
ning, Monday, February the 19th—“Which
was the most deserving the censure of toe
public——Mr. Yoike’s enforcement of the
Standing Orders of the House to exclude
strangers from the i nquiry intoihe Walche
rcn expedition, or Mr, Windham’s late at
tack on the liberty of the press ?”
Then followed a statement of the manner
in which the question on the preceding night
had been determined which conveyed a
strong censure on the proceedings of the
House.
'1 he printer’s mime was J. Deane, War
don r stieec.
Mr. Yorke next moved, that the clause of
the bill of rights, affecting the privilege of
spuech in that House, be now read. It was
road accordingly, stating, in substance, that
the speeches or debates of members in .hat
House, ought not to be impeached or quest
tioned by any authority cut of that House.
Mr. Yorke then moved that J, Deane,
printer, 57, \Vardour street, do attend at
tli? bar of that 11 ou-.e tomorrow. Ordered.
[On the 20th, Ivlr. Deane was called to
the bar, owned that he had primed the hand
bill, which wos written by a Mr. John Gale
Jones ; taut it was usual for him to print sim
ilar paper*—and he had no intention to vio
late the pri ilexes of Parliament. He wa>
on motion of Mr. Yorke after some discussi*
on, Coinmitteii t> the custody of the scr
jeant at a; nut, to ue brcjghtup next day,}
Lot*now, Ft b. 21.
Mr. Yorke moved the oi aer of thetlay,for
|bring;i 5 Mi. J<4ia tu i; io.tcv, to the I> m ,
Mr. Jones being brought accordingly, the
Speaker addressedhim as follows:—" John
C»a!e Jones, a complaint hating been made to
this House of the publication of a scandalous
and libellous h*nd bill, reflecting on the pro
ceedmgs ot tins honorable House, and the
conduct of certain of its Members; and the
primer of the said hand bill having been cal
led to the bar ol this House, to answer for the
said publication, alledged that you are the
author thereof. What have you to say in I
your behalf?”
Mr. Jones answered, “ I acknowledge.
Sir, that 1 was the author of that paptr ;
and I am extremely sorry the printer has
experienced any inconvenience ou nty ac
count.”
Mr. Speaker—“ Repeat what you have
said.”
Mr, Jones complied.
mr. npeHKer—” nave you any tiling more
to say in your behalf?”
Mr Jones—•• f sincerely lament that 1
should-have incurred the displeasure of this
honorable House ; and 1 trust they will not
consider that, in what I have done, 1 was
actuated by hoy sense rrt disrespect to rs
privileges, or the persons of any of its Mem
bers individually ; or that I had any other
motive in mentioning the names of tlio two
honorable Members alludc-d to, save that
they happened to be connected with a sub
jectof public dir.ussion. I have always con
siderrd it the privilege of every Englishman
to animadvert, on public measures, and the
conduct of public men ; but on loking over
the paper in question again, I find that !
have erred ; 1 beg to express my contrition,
and I throw myself on the mercy of this
honorable House ; this House of Commons,
which, as an important branch of the
Constitution, has always had my unfeigned
respect.”
The speaker then addressed the house and
put in question :
“ That John Gale Jones, having now ac
knowiedged himself to he the author of the
paper in question, was guilty of a gross vio
lation of the privileges of that house.”
The question was carried nrm con.
Mr. Ynrke then rose and said, that after
the vote just passed, he thought it impossible
the house should not follow it up by some
further resolution, which snnuld mark, its own
sense'of the indignity offered to its high au
thority, by the person now at the bar, and by
making a pr per example, warn such per
sons front taking upon them to communt in
such a way upon the proceedings of that
house, anti the parliamentary conduct of;
its Members. He therefore moved, that
John Gale Jones, for his. offence, be commit-,
ted to his Majesty’s gaol of Newgate j
Shortly afterwards, Mr. Yorke appeared !
prepared to offer Mr. Dean’s petition, and j
presented it to the house.
The petition having been read.
Mr. Dean, the printer, was then called to 1
the bar, and the speaker having recapjtula
ted to him the nature and circumstances of i
Siis offence, told him, that in consideration of j
his demeanor yesterday, and <he peculiar !
circumstances of his case, it was the plea :
sure of the House that he should bcdischaig j
ed without fees, and he was discharged ac
cordingly.
[On the 12th March, Sir Francis Bardett,
after denying the right the H nise of Com
mons had to commit Mr Jones, moved that
he be discharged—but hi, i ,;tion was uega- ,
tivedby a majority of 139.]

American papers to the 20‘.h ult. arrived
in town yesterday.
The question on the comparative clisadvan
tages of war with G. B. and France, has oc
casioned much discussion in Congress, and
indeed throughout the U.S, and we are hap
py to find a more just disposition to appieci
ate the consequences of a war with this coun
try than has hitherto been displayed in A_
merica. begins to be prevalent. The reso
lutions of the local legislature of Mat me hu
sett* on the dismissal of Mr Jackson, re
J'er to this subject, and cannot Jail, ive
should hof'.e, to make a due imfiression on
every sober minded man in the United
State*, iLT* l'uus they speculate an our
divisions.
Letters rec’d. yesterday from the coast ol!
France state, that all the American proper-1
ty seized in the several ports of that coun
try to the 9th instant, had been sold, and the
proceeds paid into the Fienh treasury. The
amount is said to be considerable. It is ad
tied that General Armstrong, on receiving
a notification to this effect from the French 1
minister, scot back a strong remonstrance on
the subject, whtcii was, however, expected
to be attended with no goad c fleet.-Bona
parte, we bel eve, next to ourselves, hates
the Americans most cordially ; we only won
der that any persons in the United States
can be so blinded by their partiality to France,
and by their prejudices against this Country,
as not to scr. that <1 v»c should fail under the
power of France, America could not exist
for six months as an independent state.
On the subject of the adjust mem of differ
ences between this country aqj America we
have little to add to the communication that
every thing is d me as tar as it can be done
on this side of the water. 1 iic present vio

[from very high authority to add that such
arrangements have been made and cone In
•led between Marquis Wellesley and Mr.
Pinkney, as, when ratified in America, will
secure a lasting friendship between the two
countries. It now appears that, the cause
which delayed the departure of the John A
dams, on Wcdtiesdvy, was the receipt of v<_*
ry important advices from France, both bv
his Majesty’s ministers and by Mr. Pink
new Those addressed to Mr. l'inkney
were direct from General Armstrong,

ces that bv an order from Napoleon, nil a..

I'his peremptory proceeding, unexpected
1jy Mr. Armstrong, produced a remonstrance !
from that gentleman to the French minister,
and was followed by a correspondence of
so ne length ; the end of which was so com
pletely unfavorable to the American in
terest, that Mr. Armstrong was induced to
demand his passports, which had not, bow.,
ever, been granted at the date oi his com J
implication to Mr. Pinkney. It is. howe
