di LORD MELYP-LE AND THE TENT'? REPORT.
Mr. WAITIIREAD rose to make the Motion of
which he brad given notice, relative to the Tenth Re-
;ant of the Commissioners of Naval Inquiry. He
ea began by saying that it was originally his intention
to move for a Committee of the whole House, to
as
a's t.:te into consideration the contents of the tenth Re-
is. p.:t, and the charges contained therein; bin as he.
So onsidered there must be considerable difference in
the opinions of Honourable Members relative to the
roceedings to be pursued thereon, he had changed
hat mode of bringing forward the subjetft, and he
.ow intended to propose to the I louse to adopt cer-
▪ :in reso• lutions which he had framed for the pur-
- Set and would beg leave to submit to their consi-
.eration this night. Speaking of, and Ave] to
ace Le various commissions on the many most imp,rt-
ues
:et occasions which had been appointed by the
louse, he believed he might securely say that none
as ever mere honourable to the House in its forma•
inn, or more beneficial to the country in its te:tilte
effods, than this of Naval Inquiry, whit.h was
, instituted by a Noble Lord, who stood must descry-
, • ray high in the confidence of his country, who bad
of rassely and gloriously fought her battles, and
row'ned her with the mostYitflories, and
so- 410 on • his teturning home, endeavoured to detect
grhe Id root out that foul and baneful con option which
La L'4 found had insinuated itself it.to every recess anJ
alt a venue of the Naval Departments, and which, if
riolto 'leered to exist, battles, however glorious, however
led:ire, were of no use or avail. When the Corn
n I,i t e.t.a% first instituted, he begged to remind
seri he House that he had himself moved for certait.
