Mr. CADititg 44 that on the first sesotioe of
the rummer in that Houses he had expressed his
strongest disapprobation ; and he could assure
them that he still persevered in those oesti.
amts. if it had turned out. upon more emu-
rate information, that the measure was well
founded. _Nothing. in his opinion, could be more
culpuble upon thepart of the army, than a wish
to protect the Duko of fork from any decision
to which that House might come ; but if it ap-
peared, as in that case in reality it did, that all had
passed at a trivial meeting, he thought it was bustl-
ing it into too molds iaptortaiset to Make it the
subject of such grave discussion.
Mr. WHITBREAD 'llia, that according to the in-
formation he had heard, the paper was sent before
dinner; he thought it a matter of much import-
ance.
Mr. PERCRYAL said, that the resignation of his
Royal Highness was his own act alone ; he did
not know, therefore, how the Hon. Gentleman
could come to the strange conclusion, that he had
abandoned his Royal Ilighness; his resignation was
a wetter hardly tube advised. as if he had riot been
willing to resign, the advice to do so would be a
matter of great difficulty .
General Lurr said, that he had inquired of
many of his brother officers respecting that affair,
and was inhumed, that it was a mere mutter of con-
versation, stated at a moinent, and chop: like any
other.
Mr. Imam KECK made a few observations.
Mr. BATHURST said, that its eli t i iii ing the meek's-
tosined privilege, he would trevinnis upon the atten-
tion of the House hut for a few moments.—
lie thought he lied said sufficient to shine
the House that his opinion was not fur pro-
ceeding any further against the Duke of York.—
The proposition therefore before the House could
not with propriety he represented us fixing on
him again. The reasou that had beets stated
against the mafiosi wits, that the Douse had no.
right to pronounce upon moral conduct, but au
exception haul heels drawn, and that exception. its
his wind, applied to the case before them. As to
what had Ikea said respecting the measure of eon-
%Mune, his leitynt Highness, it was to be taken
coupled with ell' that had passed; he would soy
agirin, that the public funetiousiry would be bet-
ter fitted for the disc barge of his office, if the
Howie of Common► came to a re-oliition such
as he had proposed. As to what the Ilimourable
Gent. had stated, respecting the Meligihility or
Princes of the Blood. he (Mr. B.) was not con-
vinced by any thing that had fallen from him.—
The House had cleared the character of his Royal
Highness, as they would have done the character
of any General Officer. under similar eirenni-
stances. He gave no anneeessary lecture of morelity;
;mil us for the allowance to be made for Princes,
God forbid that he should he inclisied to withhold
it. Daring thus stated his rewarsits for perseveriug
in the Motion he had brought before them, be
would trust it to their decision.
Strangers being ordered to withdraw, the Douse
divided upon the question, that the word o now,"
should be omitted from Lord A rEttoaeK's Amend-
ment; when there opperired,
Fat the Ayes
For Use Nues lts
The Amendment them parsed, Mr laaTtitresT's
motion being negatived without a division.
Strangers not belie; admitted again.. we un-
derstood that the motion relpevlii.e. General
Claveriiig, was deferred until Thirr.olay nest ;
that Lord FOLIERTON6 deferred his emotion sesiieet-
ina further charges repast the Duke of York to
the *l7th of April ; amid gave tilt; cv, that he wmild
to-morrow or next day move. " That Aim. Clarke
and other IVitnesses should receive the iwaled-up
papers belonging to them.'
