ADDRESS,

Colonel IFOEIEHOUSE brought up the Repoli
of the Address, which was read twice, and agreed
to ncm. con. It was ordered to be presented to I-11*
MAJESTY by the whole House. Such Members
were of His Majesty's Privy Council were desire°
to wait upon Fits MAJESTY, to know when
would be pleased to receive the same,
His Majesty's Speech was ordered to be taken it'
to consideration to-morrow.

THANKS OF THE HOUSE.
The ..CHANCELLQR of the EXCHEVEt
said, he yesterday gave notice, that he should thif
day move the Thanks of the House to Lord KErrOr
to Sir JOHN HELL' HUTCHINSON, an to the Officer!
serving. under flier% and. also .to
importantSAUMAREZ SW
vices. He was now under. the necessity of with?,
drawing a part of that notice, because the officf
information which had been received from Sir
larreiliNsort was incomplete, inasmuch as it °""
not fully describe the Staff Of the Indian Are
who, no doubt had their full share in the gloriOi
success which had attended our Arms in that quif.:
ter, and he was sure the House would lament if OF
name of any person concerned in that Expeditie
should be omitted. Ministers were in daily expal
tion of receiving the necessary information, a%
therefore he wished, for the present, to defer }t}
Motion, it being perfectly understood that the dela/
could not in any degree arise from any doulA, in Of
quarter, of the distinguished merit of the aal/ar)
f
Officers employed in both Services. He should neht
therefore, only proceed to make a.Motion, inwhi4" I
he was sure he was anticipated by the expeaati?:
of the House and of the Public—it was for 01'
Thanks of the House to Rear-Admiral Sir JAM
SAYMAR ES:. On the merits of that gallant 6.drair
and those who served under him, there could,
was sure, be no difference of opinion, He 0
equally sure that there was no.difference of opinion 4
respecting the merit of Sir
.1. SAumAktz 111
Attack which he made upon the French SqlJ,,'"
dron in Algesiras Bay, a few days previous to
signal advantage which he obtained'over the Cc'
bined Squadrons of France and Spain, and f%
which he would now, he trusted, receive the
Thanks of the House. It was impassible for hill"
in making this Motion, not to advert to that af
tack in which the zeal and ability of the Cori'
mander, an.' the spirit and intrepidity of the Or'
ficers,who served under him, were so eminently di"'
played. That attack failed ; but the failure
owing, as Sir J. SAUMARIZ stated, only to the
failure of the wind, and a sudden calm which C3.rai
on. It was the misfortune of the gallant Aaftn,„'
on that day to lose one of the Ships under his e°,`-e;
maid ; but the Officers and Crew of that Ship u,
fended her until they had lost half their numbers'
Sir J. SAUMAREZ was not disheartened, as 01'10,)
r.lways be the case with men .of true courage !Lc
vigour. He waited for an opportunity to
amends for his failure : that opportunity offered
and he availed himself of it in a manner worthy
him who had been the companion of, and shareroo
the glory of Lords ST. VINCENT and NELSON,
the t4th of February and in the Bay of Aboohi
Those events were still so fresh in the memory e
every man, that it would he unnecessary for hio,di
enlarge upon them, he should therefore conclude 0;0
moving, " That the Thanks of the House be
to Rear-Admiral Sir JAMES SAUMAREZ, for fill
alacrity and zeal in pursuing, and for his success 6.
attack upon the Combined Squadrons of France 0
Spain on the z 2th and t 3th of July last."

The Motion was agreed to n em-. con. -
mid?
The CHANCELLOR 'of the EXCHEQUER ill—tho
" that the Thanks of the House be given r° his
Captains and Officers of the Squadron under ~,
command, for their gallant. con upon that f`to
casion, and that the Rear-Admiral be desire' 0,
communicate the same to then .''_Agreed t° ?le

serving in the said Squadron,and that the Captains do
signify the same to them."—Agreed to, nem. con.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved,
" that the SPEAKER do communicate the said Re.
Golutions to Rear-Admiral Sir J. SAUMAREZ."----
Agreed to.
Mr. D AWSON _ gave notice of a Motion which
We did not distinftly hear, but we believe it was
relative to the returns of Irish Members.

The SPEAKER said he took this opportunity of
stating, that persons becoming Peers of Ireland,
Were capable of being eleeted to serve as Members
for any place in Great Britain, but not in Ireland ;
at least that was the construuion which he thought
rust be put upon the Mt of Union. Some difficulty
had arisen in his mind with respeft to the case of a
Member of Parliament becoming an Irish Peer, be-
cause he could not issue a new writ, for he could not
receive official notice of that event, as there was no
N'irit of summons issued out to such Peer, as there
.as in, the case of a person becoming an English
deer. It would be for the House to consider whe-
.(ner some means could-not be devised, by which the.
;SPEAKER might receive official communication of
1. eh an event.

The SPEAKER gave notice that he should take'the
thair tomorrow at One o'Clock.
Adjourned at Six o'Clock till tomorrow
