IMPERIAL PAR LIAMENT.

9:I;SE OF PEERS,

TUESDAY, FEB. 7. .
. the Duke of KENT called the attention of the
House to a dechration *hich he wished to make as
public is pOssible. It had been, he said, supposed
by many persons that he had been at valiance with
his Royal Brother, the Commander in Chief, and on
that foundation some persons had drawn an inference
that he supported those who attacked the Com-
mander in Chief. He begged leave publicly to
say; 'that whatever professional differences there
'had been between them, he' entertained a high
respect for his' Royal Brother,' and he was confi-
dent he had never been guilty of 'an-,:'of the prae,
tiets yhich'had beep attempted to Ge impUted to
birn'i and for (hie he was as ready to render him.
hi cs"~ Dance With • dr'hitietr-vOrdWity as .Auy man
in tht Country. lie took the opportutrity of stat-
kiig his sentiments in that House as the most public
Means of making them known.

_ AFFAIRS OF AMERICA.
UM' GON VILLE, after a short pret:ree, tnnved for
the Accounts of the Exports since the Orders iu
Council, with the view of ascertaining what the rite-
Venue had benchted'hy that nieasure, as:it was one
of the arguments on which it had been defended.
After a short convtrsation between him and Lord
Liverpool, jt was agreed to.
Lord Livittroor, also moved for the Account
of the produce of the Consolidated Fund for the fir
last quarters, comparing them with the correspond-
ing quarters of the last year.

STATE OF THE NATION.
The Order-of the Day for the Lords being sum-
moned, being read,
Earl GROSVENOR said, in making the motion which
he was about to submit to the Hotta., he should
have thought that it would have met with no oppo-
sitioe unless he had heard a, rumour. to- the con-
trary. He thought the necessity of an inquiry into
the state of things for the last six months, was a mea-
sure of such obvious necessity,' that it needed no
argitments.to induce the• House to adopt it. If in'eK
amining into the conduct of the war in Spain parti-
cularly, it was such as to shew want of.judginent in
the plan and inadequacy of the •preparation M the
means, and that our sad reverses and disasters had
happdned by the ignorance and incapacity of M. •
loiters, it would then' become- the duty of that
House to address his Majesty, to remove such incom-
petent Managers. In considering our present situ it
tion, it necessarily led us to look back to that's-nut
phenomenon in the moral woild, 'the French neva-
!talon. It was now 'about twenty years since it broke
our, and its dreadful convulsions disordered all the
;WM letfrthe fle-Jt tb,*()VU sr 0 -
of the old Governthenti of &trek, and had iiivalvecl
us in sevenreen years of war and carnage. But hap-
pily this was the worst influence it had had upon us—
we had preserved our 'civil and political Liberties;
and our Constitution.
Oh fortunata!--si .sun bons norint :
But war, and all.its attendant evils, was to be pi-e-
-ferred to the clanger which insecure and hollow peace
would cause us ; and he confessed he saw no pros-
pect, while the ambititious spirit of Buonaparte re-
mained, to hope for peace. He consicjered.tt would,
be a mischief much to be threaded, as it would give
him an opportunity of retaining his maritime powers.
But those considerations on which his Lordship
wished the House to go into a Committee of Inquiry,
were matters of not a remote 'consideration. His
Lordship then, at great length, went in the tollow-
Mg grounds. The nest, tie said, Was the con-.
_duct of Ministers with respect to Sweden. • Surely
it was matter fit. to be inquired into, bow It hap
petted that an army was sent to the assistance of the
only ally we had on the Coutinent, 'au4 that when it
arrived at its proposed destination, so little had been
arranged with that ally, it was Suffered to remain for
a lank time inactive, 'without debarking, and was
at last recaned wittiont attempting any one act
-whatever, 'X'ke next thing which he thonght -fit
matter of in( -etiy was the conduct of naval affairs in
the Baltic. it was known that Russia was in hOs-
tility with us, and it was to be expected that she
would make some naval exertions. She did 86; and
when her fleet. put tq sea we had but two ships of
the line ready to join, our, allies. It Was true that
theOrlieers coMinanding these ships did all that could
be expected trout brase and experienced ineo, bus it
was the Out( of Adiniuistialiou that .there
,was not, it
larger force destined to' that service. But what most
of all piesetited itself- ate objed for itiquiry was,
the plan of the war in Spain, He knew very well,
that among military men there had been different
opinions, as to whit; would have been the fittest Olen
of operation. Sonic thought that a force ought to
have been sent to the North, and Op attempt made
to secure the passes of the Pyrenees. Others again,
that the South should have been our object, and that
Catalonia was the point at which we should have
aided the Spaniards. Others preferred Gallicia and
the Austurias, but none ever thought Portugal was
the itlace the fittest to employ our arms) and surely,
it tequired explanation,, why Ministers thought dif-
ferently Item every body Ilse. The Convention of
Cintra Was another muter fit for incilairy. It was
true, it hind been referred to a Court of Inquiry, but
they had decided on it merely in a military point of
view; but its most important aspect was in another
view. It had been aSserted,'that our troops did not
sail for want of transports; and it had . alsO been
asserted, that they were hacked up inadive in Por-
tugal, whilSt the French troops were set free,- and
conveyed by us to, t he scene of action with Our allies.
Suiely the .Heuse would wish to know, why it was
preterred to tualch our troops, through an hide-
went season, and over impracticable roads, if they
Could have had an easier access by sea, especially
when the sad results of that campaign were betore
camp.' its whicta gutty laid perished iii

difficulties in a retreat of .unexam plat hardships,
the army was kept boar days at Corunna for want of
transports;. and- if they had arrived but one clay
foone,t, they Wilt) reMained might love embarked
without molestation. Way the transports were,uot
ready, he sheuld think was a matter which the
House would wish' to inquire into, as it might have
saett that sorminary etintlid whi;th preceded the
etubat katiod. 'Upott an these grounds he. moved
that the House do i'esolve itself into a Committee
of the whole House to inquire iutce.the Stjte of the

The Duke of Mo:s-rao:-1;:pf,;1.4c.,41/ortiy in reply;
lte deiended the campaign its i*togal as a judicious
plan for the relief of our old and faithfi.l ally. He
contended it relieved the Spaniarkhi from the appre-
hensions of an army on their and enabled
them to turn -their Whole attention tuwatth the
French force on the Ebio. If the campaign had
been unsuccessful, he contended it was.neitherow-.
inglo our Ministers nor our Generals. ',the miscou4:

instead of adhering to the delvitsive SyStenl4- pro.;
duced the evil, and our, army, which N% :is meant
only as an auxiliary, wil3 not ine)Oly the pruwivai,
but found itself, lett alone UtiStyportd. With
resped,to many other. points touched upon in the
Noble Lord's, speech, he conlesiied he could not
speak with the confidence the lioble Earl had (lone;
as he did not know thettads, and be believed the
Noble Earl knew tit) more than himself,' though ha
urged his arguments so strenuously ; but from a:I he
bear.d, he was not convinced there was any
ground for the inquiry detnanded.
Lord DARNLEY spoke shortly in favour uf the
motion.

Lord GRENVILLE said, he' was much astonished
that. anyopposition coulkbe made to the enquirsi
-which was demanded, espectall,y when he recollectad

had merely ,asked that time facts shount be inquired
into, to 5,..0 whether they Merited condemnation or`,
not. His I.ordship also went over the several grounds
at the campaign of last Year. With respect to Swe.
den,m he observed, it was generally ruocred that
so little. pre-arrangentent was there, between his
Majesty% Ministers and the King of Sweden, that
that Monarch actually demanded the sole command
of our forces, and the Commander of them was
obliged to escape from the capital by stealth, and
almost in disguise. This was one point lit the !mild,

But more particularly front circumstances which
Could not regularly be mentioned in that Ifouse,
but which • were mentioned in almost every other

pUblie were instructed' to believe that much of what
was donee in Spain was not done un. the system of
Administrasion, but on•the discretiOn of the Com-

If there was any demerit, let it even weigh on tile
ashes r'if the dead; it there, it ought to rest. But
the' gratitude of the country, the honour of the
'country,' loudly demanded that the reputation of her
.dead lie:-.yes should not be sullied. It Was their own
best property, it its their own honour, tbr natural
honour was but the charadter ocher illustrious num
On tlitS ground, particularly, he hoped an
„inquiry
would be gone into: 1\ it'A. respell to the mode, he
insisted the one proposed by his Noble Friend wax
the regUlar and Parliamentary one, and, if any doubt
existed on that subject, he hoped they would
joint the debate, and appoint a Committee to search
tot precedents.

The LORD CIiMICRLLOR left the wealsick, and
observed ilia:. the motion of the Noble Earl was so
general and undefined, that he was at a loss to see
how it could be entertained by their Lordships.M,
out a. very wide deviation from .the rules and pric
ftee of Parliament. It was in the recollealon of their
-Lordships that at .the close of the last. Se.ssion of A.r-
liaroent sit appeared to be the unattimuni wish of
Government and of the Country, that every liogsibie
assistance should be atforded to the cause. of the So.-
nisi) Patriots. The same determination and wish
Were again expressed at the opening of the present
