posed in us, and Juipg ann iiijustice a.Sivoteiga.
-Wits it by this nage:lett that the Right lloa.
Gentleman (the Chancellor of the Esehequer),
was to set himself up as time Champion of all the
F40,-ereigns of Entope, who, by his sa count of them,
ha I been already reduced, by French artifice and
French force;to be totally deienoleat upon that
power? tie could not but think that when the
King's Mininis-n at St. .Petersitrgh found easy
access to the Emperor of lt.issia, it was highly
important to Le made acquainted with the sub-
stonee or particulars of their conversat' , although
the Right Honourable tlentleinaa had thought
proper to insinuate, that what had already cows to
the public ear was a sort of breech. of duty by au
accredited parson hetrayin; the conversaties be-
tween him and a Soverelga. Now, in his opinion,-
it was no more than that of a diatinguished indi-
vidual, well kin es is fur his valour, good anise, and
genius, and one of the heroes of Europe. Ise!ing a
punctitiotei point of honour in doing uwny iiiisre,
presentutious, by detailing a private colivenmatisin be-
tween him and the Emperor of Russia. The con-
versation itself was therefore no secret. It WWI ;11-
+reedy a matter of notoriety. If there woo really no
conversation after all this, let Ministers way SO ;
And then there waulti be au end of his motion.
But there was no doubt es to its having token place,
and that the particulars had been conveyed from Lord
G. L. Gower, the Minister at St. Petersburg!), to
Ministers here, and it had been originally commu-
nicated by Lord Hutchinsosi, under the iinpreseion
that it would be so conveyed. Why then should
not the llouse of Cointuons be pot in possession of
an autfitntieateit fact, which all the world knew,
and whitli Lord Ilutritinson himself wished ail the
world to know? Was iltsliscreditable to any King,
or to the Monarch alio helot that coarensation ?
Did it not prove that the Emperor had a perfect
confidence to the man to whom he spoke, by
telling upon him to give an opiiiien as to whether
he did- not think he would be justified in making
the peace he did make, when he could do nu more
to resist the eiteiny ? l)id it not evince his since-
rity in en.lcavooring to mediate for a.peisce between
this country and Franco!, aiwi *hew the conviction
of that Monarch that it might be obtained upon
reasonable terms? Was not this a conversati,sit that
*wild be necessary fir the House to know the par-
tieulars of? Would' it not show the reason why Mi.
nisters refueei to go so far as to avail themselves of
the proffered meliation of ittlet.4lA ? lie Phollkl uO7l-
- that this was must necessary information, and
that there was nothing imliscreet in the person who
uttered it, for it was certaiiily uttered most delibe-
rately and intelligently.. There store certain parts
of that couveraation which the Noble Lord himself
did not reveal, thereby sliowi.er, that he had welt
weighed w his mind that particular parts of it ought
not to be made public. lie should bring into the re-
eollection of' the Right Hon. Gentleman what in!ght
be deemed a grow iu liscretion in regard to the
divulging of convo•rsatious with Sovereigns. He
meant the communication that was matte of pri-
vate conversations between the Emperor of the

Ficiell and Lord ‘'iiitwortli. These lie deemed
it a goes itoriSt•rvtoto to lay before the public,
as t hey Contained re?ti smite t ions on the one side, and
not upon the other. Besides that instance, there
was another recent one, where he thought it would
hare been discreet at least to have left out some of
the passages.; he meant the communications of Lord
Strungford, where he talked of the necessity of the
Court of I'ortugal yielding to the saperiee force
of Fiance. There was also another Prince
of Europe,- who hail not disioilied to give to the
public the conversation he had with one of oar
Deini-Official Minicters—he meant the Crown
Prim— of Denmark and Mr. Jacksoii--wherein
Mr. Jackson is said to hive remarked, with as-
perity, upon the propiisitions mole to him. Could
there lie a more puss act of indiscretion, that,
that of fir. l'itt laying all those letters of Sir Ar-
thur Paget, where 1w talks of the sentiments of the
Archduke Charles, before the public? These,
and each like productions, lie should own, were
not fit to be laid before the House of Commoes.—
He would r.ither run the risk of procuring de-
fective information, thin, call for any a-
pers that • would prove •prcjildiciel to the in-
terests of the country to disciose. Those he now
called for, however, were of a different description.
and such as it would be wrong not to call for; and
he trusted that the Douse, by their decision this
night, would show, that they united in this opi-
nion. Mr. Whitbread then concluded, by enu-
merating his other tuotiorts, against which he could
not foresee any objeetinus that could be urged.
They were in substance, copy of the Answer de-
livered by our Minister to General Ilisclherg. dated

Minister of this country. As to the dispatch con-
Mining his :colorer to the Note of ' Badbarg.
-relative to charges urged by His Imperial Majesty,
he should only my, Ise therein stated, that he had
thought it his duty to urge, with respect and firm-
ness, such reasons as occurred to hint in justifica-
tion of His Majesty's late Government. Ile also
urged, that whatever might be the party differences
which existed in this vtary, they wood not inter-
fere with our relations to foreign powers., When
ha received that Note from General Budberg, it
was supposed at Memel that peace. was upon
the point of being concluded, and that His
Nlajesty's Mitiister was upon the point of re-
turning to St. Pet rsburgh. During his stay
at Memel, he received copies of correspondence
between M. Alopeus and the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs, containing charges i 'ler to those
in General Bit:lberg's letter, except tint they en-
tered into a detail of the countries where resistance
might be made, and where sweets was mod pro-
bable. To that Note from General Builberg, é
detailed answer was given, and u defence of His
Majesty's late Government. He did not conceive
that this emninunieatioit should be produced, as it
merely related to grievants.* stated by M. Alopeus,
1 and particularly the omission of our making any
military diversion in the cumpaigis ; and citing
various countries where and opportunities in which
he contended His Majesty's late Government hod
! neglected to ufford assistance. He alluded to par-
ticular districts where the inhabitants only waited
for the appearance of a British force to rise in
insurrection. It was impossible to make an extract
from that note of M. Alopeus, because, from the
maitre of the context, not three sentences could
be selected, where some expression would not tend
to 'commit sonic individual. Now, us to the coin.
inuniettion he made of the conversation which
Lord Hutchinson had with the Emperor of Russia,
he should merely state a few words. Lord Hut-
chinsou was, from mere curiosity, visiting the head-
quarters of that Emperor, and was, with other
Officers attached to his person, in constant familiar
intercourse with him. He (Lord Gower) was led
to hope that some beneficial consequent-et might
result from that intercourse, which lie, as an ac-
enslited person, could not obtuin. The conver-
satious which then took place were merely cern-
mienieated to him by Lord Hutchinson in a confi-
dential illALllltf, sod not with the intention of being
made a subject of a dispatch to his Misiestv's Go-
vernment. As such he conveyed them us Ministers
in the shape of private letters.
Mr. CANNINU next nwe, and enlarger:, with con-
siderable force. upon the i oints upon which the
Noble Lord who had preceded him had touched.
He begged Gentlemen to recollect, that Lord
Hutchinson was no accredited person, but merely
a private indiridual visiting St. Petersburgh ; and,
therefore, any counnuniudimut coining Iran that
quarter were not fit subjects fur Parliamentary in-
quiry. lie was sorry the late Lord of the Admi-
rah) (Mr. Grenville), was not in the House, as he
did not believe that even lie would coutend that
such a communication was fit for the inspection or
discussion of any board in the kingdom, although
he had yesterday urged, with much argument, that
an old obsolete dispatch should be received by the
Board of Admimlty as en authentic document,
with a copy of his letter, as a rider, annexed to it.
As to the answer tent to the note of Cele:nil Bud-
berg, he cotnd assure the House, that he had de-
fended the late Ministry against the charges therein
,wide against them to the best of his abilities, and
with as much zeal as lie could have done for him-
self and his colleagues. The disclosure of the
grievances set forth by M. Alois' us would not only
be useless at this particular tune, for the sake of
argument, but in the last degree cruel ; for what-
ever were the districts or ',wintry in which the
arms of Great Britain might have been curried
with effect, they mast now be under the iron hand
of France. He could assure the I leinoundsle Gen-
tleman, that' it would only tend to make his view
of the question much worse than it really oho, and
it was the lesa necessary. us he should adroit, for
the sake of argument, that the substance of it was
contained in the Russian Declaration to which His
Majesty's late I kriarat ion Was an answer, and that too
a public out. He took it for granted, that the Ho-
nuumiale Geotleutan had rent by his present motions
ally view to ascertain whether the present Go-
vertiment had, neglectful of the cause of their
country, or its relations to foreign Powers, shown
a dislike to their predecessors, by not doing enough
to maintain -shit they (the late Ministers) had Ise-
guo. The Honourable Gentleman had alluded to
mine discussions upon this subject, which had
taken place at the latter end. of last Session, in
• which it icul been s 41ted, that capon the present
Alinisters coining into office, they had found the
expectutions of our Allies raised to obtaining ef-
fertite assistance from this country, but that they
found the means of affording that assistance were
WA prepared. Upon that occasion he (Mr.
Canning) did state, and now again would state,
that the present Ministers stood upon higher
ground than the late Governmest nnagined.
He found in his office a distinct assurance of ad-
herence to foreign Powers, such as Russia and
Prussia, as to the willingness of His Majesty to
make a large Continental diversion. These as-
surances had been held out to foreign Prince., al-
though there were not actually any meant provided
to carry them into execution. At the commence-
ment of thelate war between Prussia and Fninee,
it would appear, that dispatches were sent to the
Court of St. Petershorgli, calling upon that power
to march its army to the essistauee of Prussia.—
The Court of Stockluileatou were called optic to give
assistance to their Allies.. He should not contend.
that that was a call upon this country to afford as-
sistanee to a stated extent; but en IOW: as we
were connected by common interests as Allies, we.

av uretinu that assistance intmat
contribute our share. Dispatches 1.0 ...at
might be laid upon (Is. Table, in order to
upon those who gave those assurances to
what steps they had taken for relieving
selves from their engageraeuts. Than.,
these dispatches it wou.d appear, that comae!
reproaches were made tor not contributitig
assaitaisee required : and he could not help inlet.
ing, that Russia, in being culled upon by es I
march her troops to the assistance of an All,
had a right to expect that we should also carte
bute to the Krasner eoutineatal safety. With re
apart to the pecuniary assistance, he would raereli
advert to the proposal which immediately fuj.
lowed the call mein the country, he lrearu
that of raising u loan iu this country of six millian
of money for the service of Russia. He wes eta
blaming the late Ministers for not having listened
to it, us he thought the experience which the coat
try boil already had of former Contnteutal !otos,
'night justify their refusal to entail,* risk to Ligat
amount. There was surely, however, a wide tidier.
mice, in reasoning accurately and correctly noes
the subject, between doing that to the full estsi,:
required, and doing nothing. The doing uotliiti4,
In a pecuniary light, was not doing. justice la
expectations they bad fairly raised in the mind of
the Emperor of ; but he was' yet to kat',
that the smallest subsidy had been giveu by
then,. It was but doing justice to the Conn
of St. Pctersbnrgh to observe, that no Court
had ever been so faithful to us in regard to mo-
ney transactions; for there was no instance iu
which she had ever failed to'restore the pecuniary
supply that had been giveu to her. The real sant
in which she was of money, was indeed so great
Haring one part of the campaign, that Lord
Hutchinson, exercising i sound discretion. when
called upon in the mouth of April to make a small
advance, actually aas under the nectitity of givian;
to the Emperor the miserable sum of .t'30,090,
to issuerly his immediate erabarrassinents. That
sont, triflint as it was, had been faithfully repaid.
As :o the objections urged by Russia! that we laud
injured her commerce by frequent captures of het
vessels, during our alliatice, the Hon. Geutlenian
would not surely say that the present Governra •ut
had not fully repelled the assertion, in the Decla-
ration which His Majesty had published, Mammon'
to the Russiaii one. They had refuted, in the ;are
of Europe, • charge for which there was no found-
ation, by informing the *Odd that nothing of
that sort had taken place even when the late Mi-
nisters were in office, for it was against them that
the accusation was made. Yet if the (Lou,. Geo.
tleunin called for further papers to vindicate
his friends more completely, he (Mr:
would not object to them. The Honou:•able
Mover wished to know, its point of fait, in what
way those expressions of satisfaction with reelect
to assurance of assistance had been conveyed film
the Emperor of Russia. By this he supposed the
lion. Gentleman alluded to the paisear in Its
Majesty's Declaration, expressing surprise at test
issued by the Emperor at the moment he
had received distinct assurances of his setisfae-
:ion at the assistance he was übout tn refs:lee front
this country. Nor he could assure that Homey-
able Gentleman, that if he assumed that pus t• :asa
making a distinction between the former and kite
adininietration, he was mistaken. That assurance
which inspired such a lively satisfaction in the *-
pores of Russia, did not refer alone to the present
time. As to the charge relative to the expedition
to Alexandria, the infonnatiou and corresporitlases
sought for "wild not possibly be produced; bet
whatever might be the opinion of Russia upcil
that subject, it could be defended as to her
upon the ground that the war with Turkey
was undertaken at Russia's instigation. The
Right Honourable Secretary, in concluding, ex-
pressed his firm resolve to resist the applicamt
insue by the Hon. Gentleman to the House, fur
further isformation, except that of the propos...l
mediation of Amalie. The answer to the lessee of
the Russian Minister could not be given to figs
House, inusanuch as it did not exist. The On-
eida letters of 'persons not absolutely inofficial si-
tuations abroad, he maintained Improper and
gerous to be submitted to the Hoare or the public ;
and the assurances cc our Ambassadors at quit
Court, of co-operation and assaistance, could not, in
his opinion, be culled fur with propriety, since it
had always happened, that these offers had been
made verbally, and in the course of repeated eau-
inunications with the Minister of Russia; thew
which he was willing to grant he conceived of no
importance to the House in the pursuit of its in-
quiry, and those he was induteal to refuse, he felt
it necessary to do so from a conviction that they
must be productive of either personal and private
injury, or pAblic detriment.
Mr. Possomar rose, and addressed the House--
