He, ton, admired the valour of our tro:•,p,; and,
therefore, lie trip mono lamented to see their skill

of either advantage or glory. It was on account of
those brave men, on account of those who fell. on

felt himself bound to say, that Lard Wellington
hail placed the army in a situation where its
greatest glory was to rescue itself unransorned-

Mr. MATTHEW MONTAUUfi complimented the
Hots. Getitly.eian,irho had just sat down, but could
ant help thinking the occasion which he selected
fur the dirplay of his talents en unfortunate one.—
lie contrasted the conduct of Mllisisters towards the
Seanierris, with that which be supposed the Gentle.
men of the opposite side would have adopted in 6i.
tuilar circumstances. He spoke in the highest
terms of the unlitary character of lued Welling-
ton, and costruded that the Ministers, in acting
upon the principle of Mr. Pitt. that of keeping the
war from home, acre perfectly justified. He would
not exchange his fertim2,s with those who were de-
sirous of going out of their way. for the purpose of
throwing a slur upon a great Commander.
Mr. Cusatus Lotion •poke in reply to Mr.
Montagne, hut in so low a tone, as to be nearly in-
audible in the gaUery.

General TARLIITON said, that he felt much in
opposing the thanks to an officer. as he was obliged
to do upon the later/bit occasion. He did not mean
to compare• himself with the distinguished officer
who was the subject of the discussion, who, he
was certain, possessed many advantuges over him ;
his feeble limbs and tottering frame he was con-
scious prevented him from equalling, in activity, one
whose youth and strength supported him iu the
fatigues of war : but still he bin ed that he had a
mooed unimpaired. and a heart not destitute of pa-
triotism. Coming to the subject °Nilsen:4lton, he
would ask whether any General in the House,
(and he was contideut that there were many
brat and rodent ones around him), whether
any in the lsoose would mike the movement
which Lord Wellington did two Spaiu, without

censured him much, for not doing justice to the

of the troops. mid would vote, with all Ins heart, for

and all the other Geuerals and officers, excepting

Lord CAiTS.CIIIIIOII said, that he was sure it
would not he considered extmordinary by the
House, that lie rose, upon the present occasion, to
offer some remarks. It was impossible tbat he
should not feel. in common with the House, the
weight which Liy objections must have in such *
case, when coming from an lion. General, who
must be supposed to carry all those professional
partialities about him, which would disincline him
free: ul,.trociiig, without strong grounds indeed,
the hoitours of a distinguished officer. It was im-
possible but to hesitate, wlisn he felt himself called
upon, not only to refuse the thanks, but even to
convert the unempt into a marked censure.—
(//eari.licar!)—The policy of the war itself could
lnit be considered as connected with the general
conduct of the campaign: They would. -therefore,
be right to dismiss that from their view, in deter-
mining upon the conduct of Lord Wel:itigton ; but
he (Loid Castlereagh) would feel. that he ass guilty
of an injustice, if be forbore to say. that the
ground upon which the campaign was undertaken,
so far from deducting from the .military glory
of Lord Wellington, increased and dignified it.
—/Crib of Hear hear !)—That, in whatever
way the actions of that able General were con-
' siilered. they twist redouud to his own honour,
and to the pride of his country. In April, he found
himself nt the head of 2.5,000 turn, in Portugal ;
and was authorised to combine and co-operate with
the Spaninelv. He found the northern frontier iii
possession of the enemy; and, for reasons which he
was not •now at liberty to exploit:, lie deternained
to defend PorttigriT,lnd to'attack 'Swat ; he would
not dwell upon the brilliant victory which was the

north, where there were two corps of the enemy.

the ointrved, with the strictest Hanctuality, this
priuciple of defence; and, having expelled the
French, he felt himself bound to co-operate with
Cutatar, and, if possible, enable the Spaniardal
to became matters of the Lower Tagus. liSees
therefure, would contend, that though Lord Wel- .
lington never went brycnd this limited vitw, he
was not lentod inceaaarily to avoid Madrid ; besolee,
he could stale it as a fact, that hetnre lie left Abrete
tea, he had heard of the battle of Aspern, and
must naturally have concluded, that that was the
moment at which Spain would be likely to make an
effort for her liberties, if any effort she was deter-
mined to make. His object, therefore, was to
as-
sist Spain as much as possible in thou critical
juncture, and, at the saute time, to. keep in view
the defence of Portugal, a filch was the prtticipal
object of his exertions. So far from abandoutug
that object, lie told Cutata that he could nut
go farther with !Mu than the Alberche ; and de-
clared that he could not advance, until he knew
what the French in the north of Spein meant to dd.
So fee, therefore, from bring ignorant upon this
point, as he had been charged with being, he actu-
ally limited his operations, in consequence of hit
information—Wear! Hear !j—!t was also worthy
of remark. the, by his advance, he contributed to
the defence of Ferrol, and compelled the enemy to
withdraw his force from the North of Spain.—
They were now arrived to his situatioa, previoss•
to elm bottle of Talavera. If the attack 6f
the t3d of July was Ma:ritual, it was rendered
so by the want of co-operation upon the part of the
Spaniards, which it was 'atonal to expect, and
which, had it been afforded, would have given a
decisive effect to the campaign; but, unfortunately,
that was not the case. Venegas carried his corps
to Toledo, and Lord kVellington sine compelled to
fight the battle of Talavera. But while Gentlemen
were pleased to condemn the movement of Lord
Wellington, they never seemed to think that Soult
could act otherwise than is isrly, end it was chiefly
upon the accounts of the enemy that they question-
ed the prudence of our General. Did it become
theta to allow the Mereittur to piouoience judg-
ment upon him and his military protenseeis?
The corps of Soult was 40,00 u, net 70,000, as had
been said; anti he (Lord Castlereagh) believed
that the losses which he really sustained, exceeded
all the imputed losses, falsely ascribed to Lord Wel-
lf, in modern warfare, nothing was to be
attempted, witliont carrying magazines and grana-
ries with the troops. it must be relinquished al-
together. The rashness of Lord AVei:iegtou was
talked of; but, in all that he attempted. and in all
that he performed, he never put himself' oat of a
situation to cemmainl the great object of the Ex-
pedition : he always had it in his power to recover
his position in Portugal, if he found himself presse&
His prudence, therefore, notwithstendiug all diet
was said, could not be impeached. But it had
been represented that he we. pressed, and that close..,
ly ; that he was pursued by Souls. It was true that
Soult moved along the same Uwe with him ; and if
lie waited for Souk, Souk most have overtakes him ;
but there being no danger of that, on the contrary,
there Ewing always a long interval between them,
no pressure could he said to exist. There was no-
thing upon the fate of the campaign to deprive Lund
IVellifigton of his well-earned honoura.—(Hroe !

fatality, however, by which Spanish Councils were
characterised, the advantage of the victory use not
improved. The attack was commented at one
o'clock in the day, and it was at the chew of evening
that that great exploit was performed by General
Ilill, which was, no doubt, iu their recollections.
The next morning that great mast rose from the re-
pose which great minds can take in the very arms of
