Mr. HORACE TWISS would briefly put it to sloe House
If the Masters bad refereed the Cam to a Court Martial,
would not the gentlemen opposite say, they did so to avoid
the respostbility themselves. And this tribunal would be the
most übjectiouable, because although not free from Mini-

Sir FRANCIS BURDETTtimoglit the ductrioes laid down
by the Noble Lord to extritordteary, that he meld not help
making a few observations upon. them. He thought, unless
the Howse were prepared to abstain all control over the
exercise of the prerogative of the Crown, unless they had

Noble Lord geutrally joirom ea subjects that made every

He thought that the taking away the lives of Englishmen
under any cireaniatumer, by as army paid by them to protect
them mensal foreign enemies, was calculated to awake. a
feeling of any thing rather thao merriment. But if the
principle of the Noble Lord were to he acted upon, all
military men should be @tainted fruit that House; for no
men should be allowed to remain in the degrading situation
to which the doctrine of the Noble Marquis would sub-
ject them. The Noble Marquis bad quoted an authority,
emitted, no doubt, to considerable weight, the opinion of
Loud Erskine, to prove that Akers in the army bad no re-
deem in Court. of Justice. If that wen so, It became mom
imperiously the duty of the House to protect them. But
that which his gallant Friend wished more tins suy repays..

rendered ioncessary, was that no man should say that con
