found upon record, of persons having acted in the manse. in which

of having formed very extravagant expectations. For his pkt• The
had not hand of any each expectations. These sispectationa win It
he had seen stated, appeared to his; to be very reasouabie; and be
thought, moreover, that the complaint of these claimants was
just and reasonable; namely, that theirr.lenas were to be decided
by statements and opinions which they were neither afforded the
opportunity of seeing nor of controverting. The Petition which
was now submitted to the House, he could not otherwise regard
titan as an attempt to do away with the effect of tile Petition which
had been presented by his Hon. Friend (Ur. Hume) on a former
night. It had been got up for the occasion.
The CHANCELLOR of the ERCHF.QUER assured the
Hon. and Learned Gentleman acrow the table, that he knew
nothing of the presentation of the Petition until that evening.
Doctor LUSH I NOI'ON resumed. He did not mean to impute
to the Right Honourable Gentleman that he had been a party to
the getting up of the Petition, or that it had been done even with
his knowledge. lie could not, however, altogether divest himself
of the opinion, that it had been got up for the occasion, and with a
view of counteracting the impression which the Petition presented
by his lion. Friend might be otherwise calculated to make. lie
rose principally for the purpose of repeating his opinion, that the
Claims of the captors had not been fairly investigated, and that if
the present course of proceeding was persevered in, it would amount
to an act of positive injustice to the claimants.
Sir IL HARDING E happened not to be present nn the last
night that the Petition referred to had been presented, and was
anxious to avail himself of the present opportunity that offered, to
express his opinion as to the claims on the Deccan prize nsmey._
Delay had been imputed, in Ms opinion, most improperly, to the
trustees who were appointed to administer this money. But he
would maintain, that whatever delay had been occasioned, had
been occasioned by the captors themselves. Every effort had been
made !by the trustees to procure the most satisfactory information
for the regulation of their conduct ; but they had been, in many in-
stances, frustrated in their endeavour, to procure that information.
Applications, frequent applications, had been made to Sir T. His.
lop. the General of the army, to furnish lists of those who were en-
titled to the prize money ; and although this application was first
made in January, it was not until the beginning of the.very last
month that they had been furnished. This would show, at least,
that the blame of delay was not imputable to the trustees.—
He (Sir Henry Hardioge) could not forbear from taking the
present opportunity of adverting to what had fallen from an
Hon. and Learned Gentleman (Dr. Lushington) relative to the
conduct of the Duke of Wellington in this transaction. A letter
which he had written in the course of the correspondence upon it
had been stated by the lion. and Learned Member to be unparal.
leled in impudence and insolence. The expression most com-
plained of in the letter was the omission of the word 'Mr.' befor,,
the name of William Harrison. He had the original letter in his
possession, and such en omission did not appear in it ; but the
omission occurred in a copy of the letter, which the lion. anti
Learned Pentiernan had seen. However, even that letter. thought
it were written as the Hon. and Learned Gentleman supposed, did
not justify the attack upon his Noble Friend the Duke of Welling-
ton. It was impossible for that Noble Lord not to have felt ex-
treme pain at much expressions. He was as desirous as any Mem-
bee could he to preserve the privilege of free discussloo ; but the
freedom of debate ought not to be perverted to the purpose of making
private attacks upon absent persons. It happened, however, in this
instance, that the person upon whom the attack was made wasof that
elevated character and high station, that he amid not descend to a
personal altercation with the Hon. Member; but lie would put it
to the good sense of that lion. Member, if he were to have made
the observations on any Member of that House, which he had
made upon, the Duke of Wellington, if notice must not be taken of'
them. When it was considered that the privilege prevailed of
giving permission to the circulation of whatever passed in that
House among the public, through the newspapers, lion. Members
ought to he very cautious in the exercise of the extreme power of
liberty of language. When a Noble Person was accused of unparal-
leled impudence and insolence,lt was, in his the observance
of extreme patience on the part of the friends of that Noble Person
who was absent not to retort upon the Hon. Member, and to cha-
racterise his speech in the same language in which- the Honourable
and Learned Member had thought proper to characterise the ccits
duct of his Noble Friend.
Lord FOLKESTONE begged to call the Han. and Gallant
Mt mber to order : first, because it was a breach of the orders of the
House to allude to what had pa.ssed on a former night. Besides,
the Hon. Member admitted that he was not himself present on thz
occasion that the expressions to which he alluded were apcken.
From his ( Lord Folkestone's) recollection of what had fallen front
his lion. and Learned Friend en that occasion, he had been mis.
quoted by the lion. and Gallant Member.
The SPEAKER suggested to the Hon. and Gallant Member
that lie was certainly out of order, In at all alluding to anytlnng
that had faHenfronisnyliert. Member on a former night, and be
was still more out of order in adverting to the publication o•
the debates of the House, the publication of which was itself's
breach of one of the standing orders a the House.
%lr. CANNING solo, that if.hu Hon. and Gallant Friend were
somewhat more accustomed to the dexterity of debate sometimes
resorted to in that House, he would not directly advert to the smote
filen which he had his information, but say that he had met sex.,
a statement somewhere.
Sir 11. HARDINGE resumed, He was much obliged to his
Right Hon. Friend for the suggestion he had thrown out. and
would avail himself of it. lie had understood, then, it had hero
stated that a Right Hon. Friend of his (Mr. Arbuthnot), whose
abseice (from indisposition) he deeply regretted, had intended i
I appoint a son of his, who was under age, to be agent to the trust-tit.
Now his Right lion. Friend had not any son under age: it was
true lie intended to have appointed his eldest son as agent, who was
25 years of age, who was a Major in the army, and who might
therefore be presumed to be very competent to the performance of
the duties of agent. Ile hoped hia Right Hon. Friend wonhd not
he deterred; by clamour within doors or out of doors, from fulfilling
his intentions towards him. The claims which had been set up to
this prize money were many of them the most nonsensical and absurd.
It was required by some that the buildings and the materials in them
be sold for the purpose of augmenting the amount of the money.
As well might the soldiers who fought at NVaterloo require that the
Tuileries and its furniture be said for the purpose of ir.
creasing the amount of prize-money to the English army, and as
compensation for their services. the Hon. Member proceeded to
avert to a pamphlet which had been published on the Deccan
prize-money, which contained many false and libellous imputations
on the conduct of the trustees. That pamphlet waa an anonymous
publication, and had been prepared by sonic persons who had
abused the confidence of Sir Thomas Hislop. The principal
charge that it contained against the conduct of the trustees was.
that they did net submit the opinions of the Attorney-trencrnl
and the responsible Law Officers of the Crown to the revision of
an wormy appointed by some of the claimants. He would repeat,
that there was no unnecessary delay in the conduct of the trustees,
and whatever delay was occasioned was created by the captors
themselves. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. HUME said, that in presenting the petition which he had
submitted to the House on a former night, he hail not on light
grounds preferred a charge of delay anti neglect against the trus-
tees. He had required of the petitioter (Colonel Fit/Aimee), and
of those _who, in common with him, complained of this delay, to
point out the grounds on which they accused the trustees of and procrastination in rile adjustment of their claims.
They directed his attention to a passage in a letter signed Wel-
lington and F. Arbuthnot, declaring, in reply to an application on
the part of the claimants for information, " that they would re-
ceive information, but they would give none." This refusal in-
duced hint to think that all was nett going on right, as herewith
discover no satisfactory ground for this refusal. As to the oars-
vagaat claim for two million& lie did tot see it anywhere stated
the petition, nor did be know that such a statement had been ma:.:
—on the contrary, he found in the petition that the claim was tar
more moderate, and that the petitioner stated merely his belief that
it amounted to 700,0001. Want of notice could nut be aimed to
the pe.ition whirls he presented, as, not knowing that die Hon.
anti la ailant Member (Sir 11. Ilardinge) intended to become the de-
fender of the Duke of 11'ellington, he had sent the petition to the
Chancellor of the Exchequer the day before he presented it,
which he thought was the proper channel through which to com-
municate the no:ice.

_._.____._ .........„.
Mr. S. RICE said, that he was in the House when his Hon. aul
Learned Friend had spoken, and he certainly did remember that
the expressions attributed to him by his Hon. and Gallant Friend
had been used by him. If his Hon. and Gallant Friend had been
present when his lion, and Learned Friend had spoken, he pro.
bably would not hare expressed himself with such warmth as he
did that night. It was idle to trust to the reports of newspapers;
there would be no end to mutual accusations, if reliance was to be
placed; upon them, and they were to lbe made the foundation of
charges in that House.
Sir H. il ARDI NOE said that the expressions attributed to the
lion. Member in the newspapers remained uncontradicted by the
Hon. and Learned Member himself. The expressions were re-
ported alike in several newspapers, and as they were not disclaimed
by the Hon. Member himself, he thought it unfair to turn upon
the reporters, and to accuse them of an inaccuracy of which the
Hon. and Learned Member did not himself accuse them. (Hear.)
He could not but continue to think that the expressions of the lion.
and Learned Member were intemperate and improper.
The SPEAKER was unwilling to interrupt the progress of a
debate at any time, but to refer to a debate of a former night was
certainly a reference quite out of order, and to exculpate launch
thatwith could

by a commentary upon what had taken place, taken from sources
