ded to persevere iu pressing his measures on Thursday•

especially in the measures had been surrounded with seek
elaborate mirreptesentationes he became anxious that such

Lord Castlereagh, as to the internal state of the country.
He was deeply imp ti with the importance of the too.
tion ; and chat lied since occurred, the new measures
proposed by Ministers increased the difficulties under
which lie laboured. As toilre papers,-there *acre blanks
in them, and many parts that refigured mcplanation. The
fact of the reading the Riot Act remained in considerable
doubt ; how happened this? cull and ample explanations
were required. There was use very remarkable fact
which proved this opinion. The Noble Lord hail stated.
that on the -113th a Magistrate was trampled under foot.;
how happened it that no mention of it was made In Iles
papers and correspondence/ (Hear.) And great part of
these &cements were aeonymons, and coming too from
persons who were evidently acting as spies. (Hear,hear.)
It might he attended with some danger at all times to
divulge uarnesi bet when the Home recollected what °c-
rofted two years ago, they would be slow to receive the
testimony of spies—of persons who might encourage to the
commission of improper conduct, that information might
atter be given against the offending parties. ( Hear, hear.)
He concluded unit moving, thatilie papers be referred to
a Select Committee.

Col. DAV•LES seconded the motion. To support the
system of the Ministers there wet erlaree incrwes to the
army and to the lazes; then was there-not some reuse for
the complaint of the people ? Why was there not econo-
my, why did they not behold retrenchment'? In the army
alone, an almost all the departments, the salaries were
nearly doubled, compared es ith what they were in MG'
that being a period of war and the country now having
been at pewee fur years. Where was the ssecessity for
such extravagance? He most cordially concurred iu the
motion.

Mr. B. BATFfURST hurresAed at the course which the
'Opposition seemed to be anxious to pursue. They ap-
peared to he de►irous of giving a tacit, nut an Wooded
approval of those whose acts were now euniplained of, and
also to present the Ouvrrnment from inquiring into the
acts and couduct of such individinds.—( Hear, and - laugh
from the Opposition.)
