The Earl of DARNLF.Y, apparently in refer-
ence to what had transpired on a former evening,
expressed himself not particularly desirous to agitate
the proposition of which he hid given notice, on
Thursday nest. He should therefore move, that the
order for summoning their Lordships upon Thurs-
day next be discharged, and that an order for a similar
purpose be made for a future day, which, in consider-
ation of some important matter being proposed by
a Noble Friend of his for Monday, he should propose
to be on to-morrow se'nnight. The Noble Earl ac-
cordingly moved that the Lords be summoned for
that day.
Lord HAWKESBURY wished it to be under-
stood, that the arrangement just proposed by the
Noble Earl did not proceed from any thing wished
for by His Majesty's Ministers in that !louse; it
would prove no sort of accommodation to them, as,
if the proposition, the Noble Earl had given notice
of, was to be discussed distindly from the subjed of
the general military state of the country, it was a
matter of indifference to them when it was agitated.
While sin his legs, the Noble Secretary requested a
Noble Lord, then in his place (King), to give him
an idea of the nature of his intended motion on
Mond iy, as he had stated it so generally in the first
instance, that he could not satisfadorily compre-
hend its objed.
Lord KING professed himself willing to give
the information desired by the Noble Secretary.
-His intended Motion was for the prodirdion of an
account of the monies remirte I to Ireland on ac-
count of the Governments of hash countries, nnderot
the new arrangement, the obj•-er of whieltrise al miler-
stood, was a redudion of the rate of the Exchange '
between this country and Ireland.
SPANISH DOCUMENTS.
Lord GRF.NVILLE called the attention of the
House to this topic. He was one of those, in his
first view of the question, who thought she discus-
sion could be proceeded with, with the assistance of
those documents, which were origivalty seleded by
His Majesty's Ministers for the purple, aoJ had,
after a perusal and investigation of nearly two
months, been voluntarily communicated by them to
Parliament. However, upon farther consideration,
it appeared, that they themselves deemed the origi-
nal seledion deficient, and the farther documents
were considered by them as necessary to the duel]-
, lustration of the subjed. With this proceeding he
was pleased, as apparently corning from a desire
that the House should be fully informed upon the
subject. He confessed, that several of the addition-
al documents were of very great imporunce ; some,
indeed, of equal, if not greater importance, than
any in the original seleftion. But, on perusing the
additional papers, he perceived there were same
chasms, and some points of information, which he
thought were very important to be produced, before
they could clearly undertone!, and satioadorily dis-
cuss I:it• very interesting question of Cie hostilities
with Spain. The first consideration he had to call
their Lordships' attention to was referred to in the
document, No. 14, of the additional papers, being a
Dispatch from Mr. Frere to Lord Hawjsesbury,
dated March 5, 1804. He alluded to the mention
therein made of the Treaty of Neutrality, respelling
which, in one of his conferences with the Prince of
Peace, Mr. Frere tins referred by him to His Ca-
tholic Majesty's Secretary of State fur foreign Al-
faits. 1 his, in the consideration of the general
subject, was a topic of the greatest importance ; and
on which he thought some farther information ought
to be given by Ministers. His Lordship con.-lo red
by moving, in the shape of an Address to His Ma-
jesty, for the information required ; when, before
the question was put,
Lord HAWKESBURY rose, and put it so the
Noble Lord and to the House, whether, in a case of
that nature, it would not be more regular and more
consonant to the usual pradice, to give notice of
such a motion as for a subsequent day ; for the
Mover, for instance, abstracted from the circum-
stance of Ministers possibly being unable to state at
the moment, how far their information proceeded,
there was the consideration of their opinions as to
the expediency and inexpediency of making parti-
cular communications. Some interval, he thought,
shoulJ,in propriety, be allowed, to afford time to Mi-
nisters, not only to inquire, but toconsider of it. And,
after alluding to the absence of his Noble Friend, to
whose particular province the questions officially
belonged, he begged leave to suggest to the NJble
Lord the propriety of postponing the motion Ise had
just brought forward until to-morrow.

-

- -
Lord GRENVTLLE professed his unwillingriess
to press anything that might tend to embarrass Mi-.
sisters, or even to inconvenience them. But, he
I 'was so circumstanced, that, except in a case of ne-
cessity, he should not wish to attend in his place to-
morrow ; it would be highly inconvenient to hint,
and, perhaps, he should he under the necessity of
trusting to the kindness of sopse Noble friend to pro:
ceed to ISIOTTOW for him. He was glad, however;
to see his Noble Friend (Lord Mulgrave, who had
just entered the House) now it his place, who, he
doubted not, from his known perspicuity, froei i:le
close attentio:; which he imagined he had 'paid to
investigating the details of the Correspondence is
question, would be able to afford an adequate d •gree
of information in the first instance. Nnble L r
then repeated the considerations which gave aye to
his Motion, for the information of his Noble Frica4
as above substantially given.
Lord MUI.G R AVE obsereed, his 'Noble Friend
had given him credit fur more than he was entitled
to ca the present occasion, as he had not been able
to pay that minute degree of attention to the details
4,1 those documents which the Noble Lord seemed raw
think. Ile thought, is the ease before them, it
would be preferable if his Noble Friend stated the
heads of the additional information he thought 'sea
cessary, in order to affiedun oppertamill of making
the proper inquiries, and giviiig time re Minisfersto
form an opinion as to the different points.
s.-
Lord GRENVILLE, seeming to acquiesce se
the propriete what was °Tressed, proceeded to
state the outline of the additional information which
he conceived to be necessary. He partic;s:arly re-
ferred to a Letter from the Chevalier D'Angnada,
to I.ord Harrowby, dated ?II December, I MA, as
involving em-iderations the most inomentous of
any cennetted with the subjeß, and on which, in a
great degree, the whole question to I.e scussed
would depend. He thought the ea seer girt* to
this very important document ought to be commit-
nicated ; and, on the sere./ of expestiev.t y, he-abserv-
ed, that if it were fit to ise comic:mice:ea to !he
Spanish Minister, there could be no irnreoprirty in,
laying it before that Hattie. He re?! cued che.-unar '
voidable -absence of his Neblo Frieud .lured kiar- '
rowby) : were he present, perhaps some ire.
portant explanations might be giveii, as to flees
Fart of the transaftions. There sv.re also
runt i-
derations arising out of several other pasts,eif
additional papers, on which infnetnastott, • lie
thought, should be laid before the i loose, sunis-.l'
from what appeared in the Lever of tlye.,C.'hetafier
D'Anduaga to Lord Hawkeshury, of the 9th of
March, 1804, and other points, to which ,-tine
Noble Lord particularly referrel. He w.sise.li.is
Noble Friend would take an opportunity se' .cott-
municating to him, in the course of to-mtwreve
forenoon, on the subjea of th.iee cor.siderus.
which, of course, would regulote his conslua .46 49
bringing forward regular Motions upon the suisieeq.
Lord hl LGRA VE in wired replied. he weusd
endeavour to communicate with his Nobie Friend 10
the way desired. .

QUAR ktiTINE LAWS.
Mr. ROSE brought up theClirarantiee Bill, whie:l
was read a first time. Hwthen said, that before ..e
moved the second reading of the Bill, he thareht it
necessary to say a fete words as to the nature and
meaningof the present Bill. The late Bill, foiindesi on
30 and 40 of the kind, vested a power in the Kt 4•-4,
with and under the advice 44 the Privy Council, to
issue orders respefting ships returning trona foreign
parrs, where any intettions disorden may be preva-
lent. It is intended by the present Bill to extend
these powers considerably. By the law, as it be-
fore stood, ships wire otily liable to perforto <le
rantine, which came from an port or country, wr..re
any violent, epidemic, or iatr.tious prevail-
ed ; but by the present bill, certain ;!sips, w ric h have
any infectious disorder on board, are to be made
liable to perform quarantine, though they do not
come from any port or place Yrhere any such infec-
tious disorder is prevalent ; there is in it also a power
to ...impel persona who have mule their escape, err
come on shore from such ship or ships, to moms on.
board such ships, under the penalty of searing
death in case art refusal. There were some cases
had lately happened, he said, where persotts ha t
made their escape from no hoard a ship of this de-
scription, that hail been driven on shore, and had
been hat boured at a small public-house, in the coon-
try, and, as the law now stood, there were n 6 means
of enforcing their return on board. The ?:-elent
bill went to remedy such defects, and to provide the
proper means of moreeffeetually seeming theeountry
from the danger of any infeaions or epidemic disease
being imported or introduced into the counii!. The
bill was then ordered to be read a second time en
Friday next, and to be printed.
