The CHANCELLOR Of t.IC XCIIEoUr R brotglit drawn n Message to
he Prim wa. and was as

" C.F.() t; F. P. R.
" Thy IN CE REGENT, acing in the came, and on the behalf (.1
his 1%! A JEST v, haVillZ taken into his tericus co:isideration the accounts
which he has rec..iveil of the severe distresses to which the inhabi-
tants of a part of the Empire of, Ra,sia have been exposed in their
p..rso!is and r rooerty, in c nseqir nee of the Unpr,v,•ktd and atrocious
:nvasion of that country by tlte Ruler of France ; and the exemplary
and extr,o-divaly inagoanimity and for Ito 'e with which they have
sulyitittel to the tir atest privations and sulFerii:ga in the di.tence
of
their countrt , and the ardent loyalty and unconquerable spirit they
have displaced in its cause, whereby results have been produced of
the utmost in-tricot:ince to the interests of this lchigdom, and to the p -
neral cause of Europe ,• recomanottils to the• House of Commons to
enable his Roe,' Highness, in aid of the contributions which have
been commenced within the itusian Empire t.a this purpose, to al-
fold to the sullering subjects of his Majcst% 's good and great Ally,
the Em7eror of R ussia, such speedy and elrectual relief as may be
suitable to this most interesting occasion, G. P. R."
The C ANCEEIMR of the Excut 012 ER moved, that his Royal High-
ness's most gracious Messa,e t;hould b•-.: referred to a Committee of
Supply.
Mr. NVII Tr.tt rA n thought it would better heenme an English
House cf Coo:mons. at a period like the present, to vote something
to relieve the safli:ring subjects of this country, bef.)re they carried
their generosity so far as to relieve tha subjects of Russia.
Sir F. BeitHElr not only thought a grant of tit= nature of that pro-
posed most extraordinary, in our present eircumstancea, but he
thought it most insulting to the people of this country.
Mr. STECII s, far from thinking such a grant would be felt insult-
ing to the people of this country, was confident they would feel in-
sulted by larguage like that held by the Hon. Bart.
Mr. VONSONBY said, whatever view might be taken of it by those
Gentlemen with whom he was in the habit of acting, he had by no
means decided on opposing the grant recommended.
Mr. Rosa had a perf,?..t couviction on his mind, that the interests of
the people of this country would be best consulted by agreeing to the
measure recommenikd by the Message.
Lord NUGENT tVi!•I1C1 to gu .rd against giving any pledge one way
or the other, but he did not hesitate to say, that he had a strong dispo.
sition to support the grant.
Mr. Lock HART strongly defended the policy of the grant.
The Message was order to he referre• to a Committee of Supply.

SPANISH CANIPAIGN.
Lord NUGENT rave n.&ce, that bowl afw the holidays, it was his
intention to move thr certain Papers, explanatory of the corKluc.l of
she late Campaign in Spain.
The CHANCELLOR of the EX.CHF2UER, in fr °yin the th;rd reAdint
of the Household Bill, propo e. 4 to omit two of the clauses which had
been of jected to, not on acciunt of what had been said 61 thew in that
Hoilsf-, but from other circumstances.
The Bill so curtailed virus read a third time and passed.
A MER IC A
Mr. WHITSRLAD t•egged t ) ask the ISlrble Lord (Lord Castlereagh',
if before the recess it was his intentior ; lay certain papers firminii
difrerept correspondences before the House.
Lord CASTLER E nit had no •.t.-1;(). to deny that it virls the In-
tent:on of Government, at the p oper ,alent, to fir before the Hot so
the pal ers alluded to, a"d to take the sense of Parliam:nt trom them.
It was tilt judged p r per at ',lit, as Ministers were not in 000,e5..
sion of the re- tilt of tile me tures male ;brolly, Admi al Warren.
He should feel it to be iris dirt to I:iv t!,..iti beim: the louse imule.
di •tcly after the •ecess, unless there should be reasons fur withholshig
them. A proposition had been made through Mr. Russell, which it
