TAUTTER'S INDE %I NITY.
Mr. WHITBREAD mired that the T.nrcli'
Amendments to the Witnesbas Indemnity Bill be
then telten into consideration.—Ordered.

The Si'FAKER informed the House that among
Or' numerous amendments made by the Lords to
this Bill, there were some wh:ch related to the in-
demnity of witnesses against the use of certain parts
of the rthlic momey, which had never been suffe:ed
by that I Iratse.
Mr. WHIrBREI moved. thu the sa;d
aMendmenrs be talon jay, con,ideration d !).
three rnoittlis.--OrUced. The Bill was os c'e
thrown nut. •
WHITBREAD then moved for leave to
bAti7 in a new Maio the same purpose —Ordered.
He then brought tip the said Rill, which was read
2'SrPt and scc.ond time, and committed ; and on
the question that the said Bill be read a third time ;
Sir W. ELFORD rose, and reiterated his former
objeeitons to the Bill, sand still strenuously contended,
that the Atr,rney General should be ordered to dis-
eitatinue an I drop for eVer the proceedings on the
civil snit which ted been ordered by the House to
he instituted agaibtt Mr. ratter. He did not think
this the hest method which could he pursued ; but
as this tither, which was suggested, had been re-
piled by the Loots, it was the only mode that
citinl4 now he ouraued to free the patties from their
tiafti!h) to subject themselves to a civil suit or suits,
which be deemed a ease of extreme hardship.
Mr. WHITIIRRAD said a feu- words in an-
swer; after w:tich the Bill was read a third time, and
passed.
Sit W. F.I.FORD, after a few preliminary ob-
setstelibits, moved, in conformity to a notice he had
bef: re stated, That so much of the order of the
27th of April, as direFted the Attorney-General
to prueeed against Alexander Trotter, LIT by civil
Touted, be discharged "
Mr. R. DUNDAS (,on of Lord Melville) seconded
the motion.
Mr. WI lITBRRAD said, he sh.ould not oppose
the motion—but he thought it would be more re-
plat to wait for the opinion of the twelve Judges,
which, he understood, was to be delivered upon
this sultieel, in another House
Mt. X INNAIRD said, that the first law au-
thorities of the country were agaist.t the opinion
which seethed to be entertained on the other side of
the House ; and thought it would he no more than
respetfui to the Judges of the land, to wait for
their decision. If Mr. Trotter should be biassed in
the evidence be may give, he thought the public had
I tight to initktue a civil proce-s arain,t him, for
the recover, of the sums of which it might have
• Wien defraudett.
The ATTORNEY-G ENER AL tpote in support
of the motion; and Mr. C. WYNNE against it;
tlf,ft which, the question was carried without a di-

Mr: KINNAIRD " Thit there be laid
befote the Hoit..f, an actoarit of the stipends of the
cu: ates of Teine, in Scotland ; and also a list of
Elie populatioh of the di6►tent parishes in that
emin*ry, alphabetic:sit, ranged."
The SECRETARY at WAR opposed it, on the
krohnsi of the I;steness of the vession, and the con-
tusien that it rnthe inevitably occasion in Scotland.
The Motion was negativad.

‘PrAIN tettmirr.
Mr. WINDHAM moved, .4 That there be laid
before the House a copy of the correspondence be-
tween the British and French, as well as other Go-
vernments, an the sehjeel of the detention and im-
prisonment of Captain Wright, of His Majesty's
Navy." ire did not, however, build his argument
on any one thing that Might be done by foreign
states, as We had the right of making a dire& claim
for him ourselves. He did not feel it necessary to
add much to what he before said upon this sully& ;
but he tlismight it necessary, that this country should
itihk M the eassiderstion which it heretofore had
with forei,,n powers, and also to the consideration
tibial it iitre3 to itself. However irritated Bona-
parte Might have been befrre, he might now be ac-
kneed by more liberal teeliy—and, instead of
imitating the cruelty and barbarity of A lgerine Pi-
rates, be inclined to acquiesce in the Acknowledged
rights of war.
Sir SYDNEY Smrri I seconded the motion. lie
spoke in MO terms of the char-After of Captain
Wright, who ti.,d w,Lintarily engaged in a very Jif-
f:mit and dangerous orvire; and who ought not to

*is regularly employed. He did not see any ana.
lily between his care, and that isf tl e prisoners at
Verdun, and thnutht him doubly entitled to protec-
Lion, from the humanity which he displayed, even
at the time Isf his rriking to a much soperior force.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said. that all the ohj.44lion he had to the motion
11V41. that it did not go far enough ; and therefore
snowed. as au amendment, 6. 'Rat ante should al-
