IMPERIAL IsARLTAMEMT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
wittictsiosY, TZ.11.23
The Snsxra. took the Chair at half past three
o'clock.
The Cli ATR MAN of the Committee for enquiring
into** merits of the Barnstaple petition brought
up a Report, complaining, that W. BAl,Datirs, F.sq.
had absented himself yesterday and to-day from hit
duty, as a Member of the same.
On the Motion of Sir M. B. FOLKES, Bart. Mr.
WALKER, a medical Gentleman, was called in and
sworn, who deposed, that the absence of Mr. Bald-
win pvoceeded from indisposition, and that he cer-
tainly ass not able to attend. Leave was in conse-
quence given for absenting himself from. the Com-
mittee.
AL.cocic bi-ought up an account from the
Treasnry of the sums voted for that part of the
United Kingdom called England, for the rear 1802,
and how the same were disposed of. Ordered to be
printed.
The Cu &west Loa of the Excn>Eorztt brought
up an account of twine!! received, and to be red
ceived by the Commissioners appointed in pnrsu-
ar.ce of an Aa cf the 35th of his present Majesty's
reign, and the appropriation of the same for liqui-
dating- the debts of his Royal Highness the Prince
of Wales, and mooed, that it be referred to the
Committee for taking into consideration his Ma-
jesty's most gracious Message. Agreed to.
Seveval Gentlemen got leave of absence, in con-
sequence cf ill health, and for attending the Circuits.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER,
after having made some observations respeaing the
non-attendance of Members to proceed on ballots,
and as several Committees were to be ballotted for
this week, moved that the Order of the Day for
taking into consideration the petition complaining
of an undue eloaion for Hereford on Tuesday next,
he discharged, and the same taken into considera.
tinn on to-morrow sennight, and that the Call of the
House be enforced till Friday next. Agreed to.
Mr. AtexArnita brought up a Report from
the Committee on the Bill for preventing Mutiny.
Desertion, &c. which was ordered to be taken into
consideration on Monday text.
Mr. A utak:mut moved that the order or
the day be now read, for the House resolving it-
self into a Committee of the whole House, for'
taking into consideration the Report of the Com-
mittee on the postponed resolutions on the expiring
laws. He then moved that the report be read to-
Morrow.—Carried.
Mr. Ws.r..t.acx brought up the Report of the
Committee for preparing an Address to his Majesty,
congratulating him cn the discovery and frustration
of the late wicked conspiracy, which was then read
as follows ;
" Ivfost Gracious Sovereign, We your Moiety's mortclutifin
and loyal sub efts, the Commons of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland in Parliament asseuslat ;'r.sB lease to
offer to your Majesty the heart-felt congratulation of this House
on the deteetion and fai'.lne of as atrocious and treasonable con-
spiracy, diretied against your Majesty's sacred person and Gu-
vernment. That the wicked machinations, which, through
the goodnessof Divine Pmvidence, have been thus happily
fruitrated, afford an additional proof of the pernicious ten
demi" of those detestable principles, which are equally adverse
to the enjoyment of praEtical libeity, and to the existmce of
regular authority, as well as de:Arne:live of the comfort and se-
curity of all classes of society. We assure your Majesty, in
our own name, and in that of all the Commons of the United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, of the peer and in-
variable attachment of a loyal and grateful peal-4e' and of our
fixed determination to support and maintain that form of Go.
vernment under which it is our glory and happiness to live,
and to transmit it unchanged and unimpaired to our descen-
dants!'

On the Motion of the CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER, it was -agreed, that the Address
should be presented by the whole House, and that
such Members as were of his Majesty's most ho-
nourable Privy Council should wait upon his Ma-
jesty to know his pleasure respeCting the time fur
presenting the same.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
moved, That the Order of the Day for the House
forming itself into a Committee of the whole I louse
for taking into consideration his Majesty's most gra-
cious Message, be now read.
On the Motion for the Speaker's leaving the
Chair,
Col. STANLEY rose, and said, he wished to be
informed whether any grant that may be voted to
his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, in conse-
quence of this application, was to be considered as a
free gift, or as a compromise Of any claim. If as a
free gift, his Royal Highness was excluded by the
Aft of 1795, from receiving it in that point of view;
and if as a compromise for any claim, lie would re-
quire the most satisfaCtory explanation on the sub-
jeft. Ile therefore moved, That his Majesty's Mes-
sage -to this House on the 21st May, 1786, and
• also of that on the 21st of May 1795, be now read.
The Messages were then read from the Journals,
tending to chew that a pledge had been given, that
no future application would be made to Parliament
on the submit of his:Royal Highness's expenditures.
Col. STANLEY then said, that notwithstanding
. the high respea and deference he had for his Ifv, al
Highness, he could not help making the observation
which had just fallen from him, with any degree of
justice to his feelings of duty towards his constitu-
ents.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said, the Hon. Gentleman • has put a question, no
doubt, &paling to be answered by some of his
Majesty's confidehtial 'Ministers. For his part, he
had no hesitaticin to declare, that a compromise of
claims formed no part of the grounds on which this
proceeding was founded ; nor had he any other in-
ducement for bringing it forward, but as a parlia.
mentary measure for the support of his Royal High-
ness's high dignity ; in the splendour of wive ex.
alted situation, every man in this House and in this
country must be deeply interested. As toany re4erence
to his Royal Highness's debts ; he denied it, and
read some parrs o! his Majesty's Message to prove
that it had no allusion to the Prince's debts what-
soever, but for the support of his 11,441 Highness's,
