:4*d the Chair upon the mode of rocaediajt.
Wtien be said they were to be laid berets His Ka-
jetty without. any comment, it did not }Owe they
were to be laid before His Majesty without any
form. It was consistent with the dignity of the
House to do so, and was pursued in the case of the
Duke of Marlborough. It was his anxious wish to
proceed in whatever way would give most solem-
nity to their proceeding..
The Question was then put and carried.
Mr. WHITBREAD then gave notice, that he
would on 'Thursday fortnight bring forward two
motions : the firsts relative to instructions to be
given to the Attorney General to proceed at law.
for an account of the deficiencies in the Treasurer of
the Navy's Department, respetfing Lord Melville
and Mr. Trotter. The second, for a Committee to in-
vestigate the particulars of the 10th Report, and upon
other matter sot yet clearly explained. He thought the
regular mode of proceeding would have been, that a
restraining Bill should he immediately filed to pre-
vent those parties from alienating any of their pro-
perty. The last precedent upon this subject was
set by Lord ?delving' himself ; but he did not intend
pressing this matter at present.
Mr. SHERIDAN wished some Gentleman
would move for a Committee of the whole House to
investigate the whole of the Reports. The entire
question would then come properly before the llonse,
and substantial justice would be done ; as to the
Address to His Majesty, he wished to know when
they were to proceed with it ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCiIEQUER
said, that it was usual to adjourn the House till the
Monday se'nnight after the holidays, and he pro-
posed going up with it on use Thursday following.
Mr. GREY had no objeaion to the time, provid-
ed it did not interfere with his Hon. Friend's motion.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQ,UER
declared, as he was somewhat implicated, he wished
the business to be proceeded upon as soon as pos-
sible.
Mr. Serjeant BEST gave notice, that he would
fix a day immediately after the recess, for a Motion
relative to taking the Eleventh Report into consi-
deration.
The remaining orders of the day were then dis-
po,ml of, and at half-past Ten e'Clock the !louse
Adjourned till To-morrow.

We stated yesterday that Viscount MI.I.VILLE

motion for as Address to His MaJtsrv, praying

draw it for the present, upon an assurance from
Mr. PITT, tLat there was no danger or probability
of the Noble Viscount's return to office. It was
agreed, however, that the resolutions of Monday
