Mr. B AGWELL said, that the Hon. Gentleman
(Mr. GREY) was not correa in supposing that it
was not necessary to second Motions for Papers in
the Irish House of Commons.

After a few words from Mr. MARTIN, of Gal-
way, against the original Motion, the previous
question was put and carried.
. The- CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said, he had it in command from His .MA JESTY, 10
lay before the House certain Papers
.relative to the
detention of Russian, Swedish, and Danish Ships.—
Ordered to lie on the Table.

• Mr. GREY wished to know whether the Right
Hon. Gentleman meant to make any Motion upon
them.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said, he meant to move for a Bill of Indemnity fur
the Inferior Agents who had seized those Vessels.
Mr. GREY said, that he saw at present no ob-
kftion to such a Bill, hut reserved to himself the
right of opposing it hereafter, if he should see cause
to alter his opinion.
Mr. PL LHAM brought up the Report of the Com-
mittee of Secresy, and gave notice that he should on
Monday move that it should be taken into conside-
ration on Thursday next.
The Report was then ordered to be printed.
Mr. JONES gave notice that he should next
week move for some papers relative to Egypt—he
was then proceeding to ask some questions relative
to llzs MAJESTY'S health, when he was called to
Order by

Mr. YORKE, who said, that such questions could
not he put with any view to propriety or decency.
The Master and Servants Bill was read a second
time.

The Report of the Clergymens' Exclusion Bill
was brought up, and after some verbal amendments,
was agreed to, and ordered to be read a third time
on Monday.
The Bill for requiring returns of the assessments
made for the Poor was read a second time.

The Poor Assessment Bill and Cartwright's Wool-
combing Machine Bill were read a second time.

Mr. JONES said, he now rose to put a question,
which was, whether. the Message from His MA J ES.
TY which had been delivered yesterday by the Noble
Lord, was. authorized by His MAJESTY in Council ?
Mr. ADDINGTON said, that this was a clues.
tion which, as the Hon. Gentleman had appeared
anxiously and repeatedly desirous ro put, must not
be passed over in silence. The Hon. Gentleman,
he presumed, must have asked this question from
ignorance, for he ought to have known, that
His MAJESTY frequently sent down Messages to
that House without any previous formal meeting of
His MAJESTY in Council. Whether the question
proceeded from the conscientious feelings of the
Hon. Gentleman, he best knew ; hut whether, in
decency or propriety, it was a question which ought
to have been put, that Hon. Gentleman's calm
refleaions would serve to infoim him. But he felt
no hesitation in saying, that it was well known
that Inquiries of this nature had originated in ru-
mours industriously spread, but which only refleeted
disgrace on those who raised them. He had, how.
ever, the satisfadion to declare, and that from the
best information of those on whom be could rely—
he spoke from his own knowledge, and he trusted he
was incapable of imposing on the House.; from those
sources ,he. could state, that which he was sure must
console the feelings and allay the apprehensions of
every loyal man in the country.
The Bill to enforce the payment of fines imposed
at Quarter Sessions, was read a second time, anti
ordered to be committed on Tuesday.
The Portugal Wine Warehouse Bill was read a
second time, and ordered to be committed on
Wednesday.

The other orders of the day were deferred.—At
seven o'clock the House adjourned to Monday.
