tleman proposed a clause.

G. Bennet.)

PIRACY.—Mr. MARRYAT presented a petition from mer-
chants in the port of London engaged in the West India trade,
complaining of the extension of piracy.
Sir G. COCKBURN said that the English government bad
dose all that wee to be effected. If we bad interfered in a
still more marked manner it might have involved us in quarrels
with infant .;sites, such u Chili and Pero, which were, be was
bound to state, governments &florin; and if England were to
take. part against those infant States, Old Spain must bass
triumphed. What would then have been said of the English
go►ernment? Why, the Ministers would have been scouted
foam that House. The fact was, the British merchants were
Dither unreasonable ; the moment they suffered even partial in-
convenience, they began to complaiii,-mithout any reference to
the general interests.
Lord LONDONDERRY made some similar ob tines,
adding that he regretted such a petition as this should be pre-
sentee. It could only open the eyes of the powers whose pro-
°ceilings were complained of ; it could only shew the weakness
of our laws on such subjects ; it would bemuch better if the
parties were to endeavour to nein the eyes of the Admiralty, if
1 it were supposed that the Adni•..'t., was supine in its conduct.
His Lordship added that Lord Cockane had taken sonic strange
views of the laws of nations, and the English government hod
made some strong representations to the Chilian author►t►es us
I this subject.
