Sir Koartits WI [Ace wished to ask the Noble
Marquis whether the question of recogoisisig Ame-
rican indoprodeoes was a purely British question,
or if it were fettered by the uegociations at Aix-la-
.Chapel le, or any Subsequent negotiation ?
The Marquis of LONDORDIRRY 'aid he had no
lesitatian, in answer to the question of the gallant
-Officer, to say, that the question was entirely Bri-
tish, end to be disposed of without any reference
to soy thing but our relations with Spain—the law
of nations- expediency—.and that regard to our
character for generosity which so justly distinguish-
ed the British nation.
• 'Pr. LUSDINGTON said, he had.on a former occa-
sion phlanuestion to the Noble Alarcptis relative
to a et-relation which was stated to be on foot, in
which• France was a party, for putting ''Bourbon
Prince on thrthrone at Buenos Ayres. The Noble
*Marquis hid then, without denying the authenticity
of thestatemeot,s,id thittiaquiries were then mak-
ing. He (Dr. LOnogtoo) wished now to ask if
the Noble Marquis hod reoeived such an answer as
was satisfactory sod consistent with the honour of

The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said (as we
,understood), tbat the French Ambassador had de-
*id the existence of any negotiations of the nature
alluded to by the floc. Member.

The Marquis of LownoutnetaT said, if the
Mon. Member had portionlavized soy one ease, he'
thought he (Lord Londonderry) could have given
him an answer. The representations made by out
naval officers on the station were certainly quite as
efficient as if made by resident Minister'.
Dr. LUalliNottow said, there had been a South
American vessel taken by our ashen, carried into
one of the West India Islands, and condemned
there. This vessel the King of Spain thought pro-
per to claim in the Courts of this country en the
ground of piracy.
Dr. Fritttimortz said, according to his recollec.
lion, the question in the case mentioned by the
Hoo. and Lesrned Gentleman turned on the neu-
trality of this country.
Sir Geo. Contriver( defended the conduct of
the Commodore in commend of our naval forces on
the South American station, and contended that he
had in every instance given the impost protection

SUPPLY.
The Report of the Committee of Supply (Mis-
cellaneous Estimates) was then brought up and
agreed to after a few words from Mr. Hume.
Mr. W. SMITH took the opportunity of re-
marking on the general neglect that appeared ip
regard to the safety of the public money in the
hands of collectors in Ireland. as compared with
F.ogland. The Post-office revenue in Ireland was,
compared with Engliod, in the proportion of
Ito Q 2, whilst the defaulters were 270 to 11. In
Ireland the total revenue was only 9-17ths of the
whole empire, yet the deficiency from defaulters
amounted to nearly one-half, as compared with
&Jibed, Scotland, and the Colonies.
Mr. GOULBURN said, the Hon. Gentlemao had
-mitered the two countries together, though the
circumstances were very dithrent. It was well
tocwit that in every thing which regarded the col-
lection of the revenue, and the enforcement of law,
this country was far in advance of Ireland. The The consideration of Mr. Humes Financial Rae
