HOUSE or LORDS.-.TOiIDAY, MAT 21.

Counsel were finally head on the Irbil Appeal Cause—
Rowe r. Po.ser-...sis Mr. IRomilir, at considera`de length, on
behalf of the Respondent, and Mr. Setj. Shepherd tor the
Ansellan, in "ply.
•7fYee LORD i.3-14,1CCIILLOR then 'lto* &Weiss"? the
Wass upon the subject, dues-teal their Lordships' autogiro to
mom of the leading costal& rations of the case; and concluded,
by inoving,--v• That certain questions arab."( thereout, and
Imeeifird by his Lordshi,i, should be refe.ned to tar ciinvolvation
of the Jo.fges, who attended;'—which was ordered accord-
ingly.
Lord GLENBERI: IE, attended by several Members, br tight
up a message from the COlB/111.01, ',wit:cuing, that the Earls of
Buckingham and St. Vincent, and Lord Via-:toot Sidiamith,
be permitted to attend the Select Commjtee of Commons,
to
whom the Eleventh Report of the C0111111i•410111113 of Naval
Enquiry, with certain exceptions, was referred.
When the Meesengers had retired;
Lord IIAWKESISURY moved, that the Lord Chancel:or
dr inform the Messengers of the Commons that their Lord
shins would send an answer, by messenger of their own;
which being ordered by the House, the Mesvery,em were
called to chattier, and the Lord Chancellor informed them as
Several private and return Bills were brought up from the
Commons, by Colonel Stanley, Mr. C. Ashley, Mr. Egerton,
attil other Gentlemen ; the former of which were forthwith
read a first time.
The Irish Election Bill was presented by Colonel Bagwell,
and read a first time.
An Officer from the Commissioners of the Caledonian Canal
Company presented a copy of the Seeextd Report made by
the said Commissioners; which was ordered to lie upon dee
table.
The Bills upon the table were forwarded in their respective
stages—Anlng these the Irish Spirit Lirerice went through
a Committee of their Lordship, without amendment, and the
Wine Duties Bill rat read a third time, and passed.
On the occasion of the third reading .1 this Bit ,
Tne Earl of SUFFOLK took occasinq his opinion,
that thematic indulgence, with reaped to the remission of the
duties mean wine, which the officers of the Navy enjoyed,
shcrald be extended to those of the Armv ; they were as wet
entitled to such a favour; and the Ins:, in point of revenue, to
the Governmelit, world oe comparatively small.
Lord HAVVKES6URY presented, by command of His
Maj• sty, a Statement of the Qiialificarions of the Deputy Lieu-
tenants, and certain Officers of the Mnitia, which were enacted
to lie on the table
Lord Viscount SIDMOUTH rose in his place, and declared,
' as he was paternally conceined, he was perfectly ready and
to attend the Sebeet Committee of the House of Cools
I terms.

V/ rIT INDIA in.Lc.
The E trl of SUFFOLK called to their Lord-
ships recolleCtion, the Mot on, which, about two
months since, he brought forward, for the pro?.uc-
*ion of An account of the bills drawn from the West
India Islands, upon the Treasury, to which their
Lordships then agreed, and the Noble Secretary,
now in his place, said he had no objeftion to those
accounts ; however, they had not yet been produced,
and he greatly wished they were brought forward
bet ore the end of the Session. To obviate the ob.
jelions on the score of inconvenience, which were
made on a fotmer evening, he would now move an
Address to His M.tjesty, that there be laid before
the House " an account of all sums drawn from the
West India Islands upon the Trea.ury, amounting
to 1,0001. and upwards, from the Ist day of Decem-
ber, 1798, to the Ist of December, 1801, specifying
the dates, times of payment, 3cc."
Lord HAWKESBURY observed, that the pre-
sent was, in point of taft, a part of the motion for-
merly made by the Noble Earl, tt which, as fir as
respeded the objeft of it, he had ,no objeflion.
However, the impossibility of being able to make
out accounts of so voluminous a nature, as those
called for, within the time elapsed, should be con-
silerel li the Noble E.trl would expressly state
what particular point he wished to be informei up-

-7 -

(PRICE SIXPEN•'I,.

on, what particular circumstance he wished to be
explai ed, he would endeavour to procure it, and
such should be produced, in the shortest possible
time. The same objeCtions, on the score of incon-
venience or imprafticability, applied to trite second
motion, nearly as much as to the first. The num-
ber of sums which it would embrace, the consider-
able time which it mint unavoidably take up, the
number of clerks stilsfied, as the most conversant
in such businesses, who must be employed, and
taken away from important avocations; were points
worthy of serious consideration ; so mach so, that
unless some specific point were more expressly ad-
verted to, he should feel it his duty rather to resist
the present motion. It would be better, upon the
whole, considering the business was in such a train
of proceeding, that the original motion should Os
followed up.
The Karl of SUFFOLK expressed his opinion, "
that the narrowed motion, which omitted all sums
helots one thousand pounds, must necessarily cause
less trouble, than the original one. The Noble Se-
cretary had re..eatedly called re,son him to state
some particular, to which be meart to refer. He
would state some feat, and feels which, he thought,
should be publicly known. He knew circumstances
attending many West-India %ills, which had
.11
drawn upon printe.l paper, in favour of c
West-India Merchants and Bankers.—One o 5 1
these, to which he particularly meant to advert,
was for the sum of three thousand porinds ;
and drawn at sixty days. The holder took it to the
Treasury, where he was to:d it was usual to give
bills of accommodation, and accordingly one was
given to him, at aixty days more, bearing an in-
terest of five per cent. this latter circumstaseoe, was
more especially a serious public consideraehin.—
There was also another Case ; it respeded a hill of
fifteen thousand pounds, which was due the same
day ; the holder came for payment, it wa snowed
that the money was due, but an accommedarien
bill, as in the former case, was tendered : this, how-
ever, the holder refused! saying it would not answer
his purpose. Neither dsd he think the ceniideration
of the five per cent. adequate. He insisted on im-
mediate peyrnent, in consequence of wtich a cor-
respondent order was issued ; this person threatened
to protest the bill, if it were not immediately "aid i
this, it apt eared, had produced the desired effe&
After some remit ks on those transations. the N u'et
Earl said, he could substantiate tl is. by ere evidei.ce
of West India Mercha.ts end celiers..vrere he al-
lowed, and were it necessary, at the Bar. .
Lord IiAIikKE.SBUR'i expressed himself whol-
ly unacquainted with the trensAClions altisled to by
this Noble Earl ; besides, it r.tferred to a depart-
ment different from that over which he bad the hoe
nour to preside. He then made some remarks, fol-
lowing up the observations lw had slready made,
reseeding the proprieet of suffering the fnrmcr Me-
Lion to stand.
The Larl of SUFFOLK took the opportunity to
advert to the circumstance of no effedual attention
!ravine been paid to his motion, for an account of
p; (weeds of the old naval stores, which he made two
years ago, and which was then orcicresl by the
House ; that was the second time he had ever moved
for Papers, though he had twenty-three years the
honour of being a Member of that House. His late
motion on this subjeet was withdrawn, in cons:-
quence of a mistake he had made in the year. His
Lor ]ship concluded by most nl, " for a return of
the proceeds of the old naval stores, from the Ist of
Dicern!;er. ISO 3, to the Ist of December, 1504."
The Marquis of SLIGO, with reference to what
had been said relative to the West India B;lls, ob-
served, that these Bills were generally at ninety-
one days.
Some conversation ensued on the snhjels to which
the motions betore the House referred, between
Lords licoo.eso, lieweesatoiv, and AUCKLAND,
the result of which was, that the Earl of Suffolk's
narrowed motion respesiing tit, West India Bills,
was withdrawn. ,and that for the Produaion of the
Account respe&ng the Old Naval Stores was carried.
ST. PANCRAS POOR RILL.
The Earl of SUFFOLK. pursuant to his motion
of yesterday, moved,—" That the order for com-
mitting this Bill on Thursday near be discharged :"
His Lordship added, that if this motion was agreed
to, he should move, in order to give the parties
proper time to come for ward with their objeetions,
ff That the Bill be committed for Wednesday the

5.11 of June."
Those propositions gave rice to a desultory. and,
in some respeets, to a rather irregular conversation.
in which the Loan CH ADCELLOR, Lord W ASAING'.
H A ss, the Bishop of Sr. AsArn, the Earls of Vv'ssz-
stotts.t.aao and Syr FOLIC took a part.
Lord WALSINGHAM Apologised for baying.
through inadvertence, moved the second rea ling of
the dill yesterday; which was caused by a kind of
misunderstanding of what then passed, joined to the
multiplicity of business which he then had to trans-
ad, Nothing could be farther from his wish, than
that the House should he taken with any thirst that
afforded the least semblance to s uprise. It was
his wish that every opportunity should be given to
panics : and understanding that the opposers of the
measure wished to he heard aganst the principle of
the Bill, be should not only support a motion for
postponing the Committee 01 the Bill, but a motion
for deferring its third reading to rather a distant day.
Those Lords, who were hostile to the dill, ap-
peared perfeetty ratified with what fell from the
Noble Chairman.

The E.trl of SUFFOLK seemed of ; pinion it
would be sufficient, then, to discharge toe order for
committing the Bill. On Tisur.d.y, he said, he
should propose a motion for fixing the Committee
for to-morrow sou night.
The Earl of WF.S cSIORLAND was of opinion,
it would be better, then, to As the Committee on
the Bill to some specific day.
The Bishop of ST. ASAPH regraded the pro-
c sling of yesterday, in its etle.4 -
