LORD .ENNI OrriL

Mr• BROGDEN brought up the Report of the Ciontrnittee
on - the Message of the Prince Regent respecting Lord Ex-
rhouth.

Mr. CROXER could not let this opportunity pasS withowt
doing justice to the great arid meritorious services of -the
Noble Lord. These bad contributed greatly to the liberation
of Spain. Having described the benefits resulting gran hip
zeal and vigilance off Spain, he adverted to the Dimmer i a
whiA he bad conducted the blockade of Toulon, and the skill,
intrepidity, and seamanship which he, displayed when the ,
French Heil ventured dot for a short time, whim, although he
Was unable completely to cut off their retteat, he inflicted on
them, as it appeared from the enemy's own account, almost
as severe a loss as they might have sustained in a regnlaraction.
While entrusted with a large force, on a distant station, and
obliged to draw all his SOrt.3 from England or from Malta, lie
had made his arrangements with so to :cli economy and, skill
that the country had never hid the4service of so ilea
at such at distance from 'England at so little cost in store., or,
in what was more valuable, men. It was highly gratifying to
him to be able to state that the five three-deckers-that Cause
home the other day, were in such perfect condition, that' had
the war continued, they were fit for any service on which it
might have been thought desirable to employ them. It teas
doe to the officers serving under him to say, that in them he
had found most able substitutes, whenever he contd. not be
present himself. He mentioned, in terms of the highest
praise, the exertions of Vice-Adtais.,l SirSvdney Smith and
those of Admiral Freemaritle, anti added, tLere was not an
officer, or a, coon, in that fleet, who h not entitled himself
to the gratitude of his country.
After a few words from ..'i,I..:E3IANTLE and another Hon.
Member, the Report was agreed to, and a Bill ordered to be
brought in.
The Red Wine Bill went.through a Committee, the Report
of which was ordered to be received on Monday.

CITY JAILS.
Mr. HOLFORD moved that the Report of the London Jail
Bill should be postponed to Monday. •
Sir W. CURTIS wished another day to he named,' as be
could not attend the House on Monday, and moved,, as an
amendment, that it should be take': into further considera-
tion on Tuesday.

Mr. HOLFOIXD objected to the discussion being taken on
Tuesday. It' it suited the convenience of the House to put it
off from Mot:Jay, he hoped it %maid be postponed to Wed-
nesday.
Mr. Alderman C. &wt.:A, Mr.lixrn W HITBREAD,
and Sir ./..SHAW offered a few observations, after whirh the
CaEery was cleared fur a division ; but we understood the
}louse did not divide, and that the further consideration of
the Report was fixed fur Monday.
The Jail Fees Abolition 13111 was read a third tithe and
passed. .
TIT PRINCESS OF WALES.

The Resolut;tin of the Committee having been
read, for •grantiq 50,000/. a year to the Princess
of Walcs,..

Lord Casmaricao Et observed, that as her Royal
Highness had been pleased to intimate to the•
House that it would be more satisfactory to her
that the Resolution should be so altered as that
tl:e provision for her should be reduced to 35,0001.
a vcar, and that she would be perfectly satisfied
with that stun, it would certainly he his wish to
conform with the desire.of her Royal Highness.
At the same time he fi•lt that it was placed 'ruder
some small difficulty, and that it became neces-
sary for him to vin&cate his conduct to the
Hoe--. lie did not think it necessary for hint
to restate to the House: the considerations
a hid' had induced !inn to think that the sum of
50,0901. per ammonia was the proper sum to propose;
but at the sane time that he lald thought- it his
duty to propose this provision, he should not
have conceived it reapectful to her Royal High-
ness, not to have apprized her previously of what
he intended to propose: On the evening of the
day that he intended to more the referring the
papers to a Committee, he had made a commu-
nication to her Royal Highness on the subject,
and also informed her that, in the Committee, he
intended to propose a vote of 50,Q00/. a year to
her Royal Highness. H was honoured with .a
reply, stating, " that her Royal Highness ac-
cepted the arrangement, as it was not clogged
with conditions, inconsistent with her rights, or
derogatory to her honour. She accepted it, not
as an 'Act of grace or favour, or as any, concession
to:her, but as an act of justice." ;Having con-;
sidered this reply as a full accepranee, on her part,
and supposing that she considered not only the
grant, but the amount of it, as "an net jus7
tice," he afterwards, %vireo he had nv ad the re-
solution, communicated it to her Royal Highness,
and informed her that the Bill should be laid be-
fore her. He was honoured with another reply,
in substance similar to•the former, accepting it,
not as an act of grace or favour, hut of justice to
herself. These replies he could not avoid considering
as the spontaneous feeling of her Royal Highness on
the subject. The difficulty that he felt under, was
that her letter to the Speaker appeared to express
a very different feeling front what was in the let-
ters addreased to himself. The letters addreasel
to hint were, however, i.n mote general terms_;
and that addressed to the Speaker was much more
specific. H her Royal Highness had, upon-con-
-1
con-
sulting with her advisers, deliberately resolved on
not.accepting more than 35,0001. yearly, he• cer-
tainly should wish to conform to her desire. At
the saute time, if the House should now think
proper, in conformity to her desire, to limit the
grant to 35,001. a year, he hoped that this would
,not give any cause for reviving, at a, future time,
a discussion so painful to the House and to the
feelings of the Royal Family. He hoped, that
they would never hear again a question about
what was due to her Royal Highness in justice,
if she now deliberately refused the provision that
Parliament was inclined to make. In the dirfi-
linlty that he felt himself,-he should be very glad
if sonic lion. Gentleman should feel .himself an-
thoriscd to state what were the wishes of herßoyal
Highness.
WIIITBREAD thought that the Noble Lord
had taken an advantage of the letters which- her
Royal Highness had written to him in reply, with-
out having consulted with any adviser. The
Noble Lord was correct in his statement of the
communications which had taken place. The
, Noble Lord bail, however, made his first commu-

nication to her Royal Highness on the day when
he proposed to refer certain papers to a Corn-
wittee, and be then Wonted heft that it ryas bit

biinself to vote for 50,0001; and he thought thati
if it not fur peenlilr circumstances, the
NoHe Lord could not have.brought himself to re-
confine:id solarge a grant. _ _ _

Lord CASTLEREAGH said, that although., for the
reasons he had before stated, 50,0001. a-year ap-
peared to hint the proper sum to propose, yet if
-he had not conceived that the 'Princess had
cepted that arrangement, or that she had \visited
,that the sum should be sin tiler, he would not
have proposed it to-the liouse. H 4 had imagined
that not only the grant, but the amount of it,
was _considered by her Royal Highness as an
" act of justice." The Holt. Geotlejnan (Mr.
Whitbread), had 'now avowed himself to be au
adviser of her Royal Highness- on thi, poi!it ; but
he must say, drat he shinild lament extremely that
he advised her to change her original opinion on
this subject, if he supposed that her pecuniary si-
tuation would ever. again be brought before the
House. By the larger grant, he supposed that
Parliament would have been liberated from those
-painful discussions in future.
Mr. TIEEN EY thought, that as there was no evi-
dence of ,her-Royal Mgliness coutractin2: debts
when a touch smaller income had been assigned
her, there was no reason to anticipate any imure
recurrence to Parliament on account of pecu-
niary affairs. The subject of Royal Debts was
one \ehich he did not wish unnecessarily to speak
of. He hoped, however, that tile House would
not rim away with the idea which the Noble Lord
seemed anxions to impress upon them, that all.
those discussions had arisen merely from the des*
sire of getting money. Those Members who had
spoken in tavour of an increased income- expressly
stated, that it was merely because Parliament had it
not in its pciw erto spew their protection in any other
manner. Her Royal Highness had also expressly
stated, that it was an misoheited increase of hex
income. That money lei) been any part of 'the
object of the late discussions,-bad been uniformly
and expressly denied, both by the-Princess her-
-self and those Members that had taken a Part in
the discussiims. thoilght Noble Lord
had gone a little too far in-stating soMething like
a consultation with her Royal Highnerei about the
amount 'of the sum to be proposed. No such con-
sultation had ever taken place ; and the -Noble
Lord never ..appeared to Consider the Princess as-a
woman that was to be consulted with'. He merely
informed her of what he intended to do, and the
answer that. she gave upon the moment was,
thilt this unsolicited increase of income she did
not consider as an act of grace or favour, but as
an act of justice. When she had time to deli-
berate and consult about the. amount of the
granteshe thought it too much, and wished it to
•be reduced. In saying that his Lordship dud nut
appear to think the Princess a person to consult
With, he by no means intended to imply that he
Would be deficient its respect to any branch of the
Royal' Family: Llis general courtesy and civility to
every Member of that ilouse convinced him that
he would net be deficient in proper respect to any
person, if lie had not: peculiar reasons. He felt
perfect:lY convinced that there was no intention in
the mind of any Hon. Member to bring the pecu-
niary situation of her Royal Highness into future
discussion.

Lord- CASTLF.REAGH said, that the Right, Hon.
'Gentleman did him no more than justice, in sup-
posing that-it was his wish, as it was his duty,
to make every thing as tranquil and pleasant to
all Parties as possible. From respect due to her
Royal Highness, he had thought it proper to send
her an account of what was passing in Parliament;
hilt his public-duty prevented him from making it
matter of private negociation. He must.say, that
he thought it natural, even in the communica-
tions between her Royal Highness and so, humble
an individual as himself, that her Royal Highness
should have explicitly declared her iiiteations to
As it was acting on the plain English of
her answer, be could not pursue any other worse
than that which he had, though it now appeared,
that, from the advice of Abe Hon. Gentleman,
and the Right Hon. Gentleman, a different course
should be adopted. He denied that he had c‘-er
said that money was the sole object of the lath
discussions : he had only intimated,- that it was
the only reasonable mode by which Parliament
could interfere.

gr. TIERNEY said, he was no adviser of .her
Royal Highness, except by the public exprcs.;ion,_
Of his sentiments : he had taken the plain road
which became a Member of Parliament,—he had
given his opinions in that House. As to xvhat
had fallen from the Noble Lord on the subject of
personal communication with her Royal Highness,
he supposed that when the former compact as to
debts and income bad been made, there was such.
an intercourse between some person or other and
her Royal Highness : nor could he see why it
had not been so now. Be this as it the
result had been extremely creditable to her Royal
Highness ; fqr it seemed, her only fault was, that
while her own condition had been largely amend-
ed t Parliament,. she had not forgotten the in-
terests of the public.
•r-494.1 COV•Afig.A.9g conceived that there waS a

~;, I,leat difference between the last arranire nent,
t-
which was a contract between the Prince anti the
Princess, and the present, where Parliament .un-
dertook to vote a public grata. As a Minister,
he could not consistently have discussed this pri-
vately with her Royal. Highness.
Air. Wurrsil'EAD said, that the Noble Lord had
not now acted with the same fairness as when he
lad formerly advised her Royal Highness in con-
junction with Mr. Perceval. Mr. Perceval had
composed an elaborate defence, and had written
a book for publication. If it was fair to say,
that sir. P.erceval had .on that occasion in his
contemplation to procure a grant 'of money,
then he (Air. W.) was content to he supposed
'to act from the same motive. Such a thought,
lwwcvt'r, never entered into his mind, and
he had,, therefore, never proposed it. lf those
advisers of
.the Regent,. at .whose instigation
was written the late letter to the Princess, ex-
cluding her from the Drawing--romir, bad desired
by such a step to increase the income of the
Princess then.he (Mr. W.) in his reprobation of
that advice tad acted fron► such a wish. The fact
was, that it' it had not been for that aggression on
her Royal ,Highness, not a syllable tvonld have
been said relating to her. But it was the coarse
pnrsned against her that excited discussions, and
induced every person who had power, to speak
to raise his -voice to release her from oppres-
sion. That reteaSe was now &maimed by the
Parliamentary recognition of her innocence and
honour ; and whether the vote should be for
50,ta.M. or 35,000/. it could make no differ-
ence. The Noble Lord seemed to think that her
Royal Highness si,►ould have commtmicated Ica
him the change in her intention :: be (Mr. Wr.)
thought a I:4f ter to the Speaker Was a more eligible
course, after the business bad passed through the
Nouse. The Noble Lord took advantage of her
ignorance of the forms of the House i in fact, she
had in the first instance accepted the grant,—not
from any reference to its amount, but as an act of
favour from the House of COMMGIIS, though
merely one of justice from the Crown. Ile could,
however, say,-that he bad every reason to believe,
that she would be most grateful for the sum of
35,000/. The Noble Lord had put another point
rather invidiously : he had argued as if a stronger
protection would be necessary for the income
of the Prince; now that her income was to.he only
35,000/. instead of 50,0001 : but surely if, with
a stipend of only 17,0001. she had not incurred a
*billing of debt, it was rather unreasonable to
insinuate that it was probable that she might
hereafter be involved under the advantage of a
larger income. As to the House being exonerated
from future discussions, be only hoped that no
cause would arise for them : but he should not
think himself precluded by the present vote front
asserting at any time the cause of the wronged.—
The House could ❑ever mean to make such a bar-

gain.
Lord cASTLEREAGII said; that the Hon. Meni
ber had sliewn more sensibilily than was neces-
sary. He had acted in the way which he thought
must respectful to her ROyal. Highness ; but he
must say that the two letters of the same date,
hearing different intentions were not usual, nor
.what might have been expected. He would touch.
no point of controversy, but he could aver that
Mr. Perceval had never considered the subject fit
for . Parliamentary discussion. He certainly
.did
not think thellon. Member precluded from fu•
ture discussion, but he trusted that he would not
think the business one which was naturally fit for.
agitation in that Assembly. He was rather sur-
prised that the Hon. Gentleman had not the other
night expressed his dissent from the larger sum.
Mr. WHITBREAD asked whether, if The Book
bad
,been published, there could have been any
possibility of avoiding Parliamentary debate upon
it ? As to what he had said the other night, the
Noble Lord certainly was not bound fo listen to
all he might say, but he had then expressed his
opinion that 50,0001. was too much. He again
asserted that he should not hold himself precluded
from the fullest discussion, if necessary, on future
occasions. It was his own firm opinion, that if
this money-proposition had been made some time
ago, that his Majesty's Ministers would not have
been disposed to accede to it.
Mr. PONSONBY would say a very few words. In
the vote. which he had given on a recent occasion
be had never thought of the pecuniary circum-
stances of her Royal Highness. Ile had lamented
extremely that the case, came before Parliament ;
because lc.. had hoped that the discussion of the
last year would have put the matter to rest. He
had conceived that the House was incompetent to
agitate the question of exclusion from the DraW-
ing-room, and that a grant of money was the
only way by which the House could constitu-
tionuily interfere. He had felt that the Princess
Lad been most unjustly treated, and therefore that
-tl.e House should do for her all that properly lay
Within its power..
The Resolution; as amended, giving 35,0001.
was then read, and unanimously agreed to, and a
Bill was ordered in pursuance of the Resolution.

PRESERVATION OF THE PEACE IN IRELAND.
Nr. PEELE hoped. that the House.would be dis-
posed to give credit both to.himself and those tin-
der whom he acted, far the reluctance and regret
with which he should propose some additional
measdres for the tranquillity of lrelexid. As far
as personal consideration could operate, the Go-
vernment would have been more pleased with the
ordinary course of the laws. It could not be
creditable to it to ,adopt extraordinary means
where ordinary means would be sufficient. He
was sorry, however, to say, from the information
which he had collected from all quarters, that the
character of the disturbances Ireland was such
as to require extraordinaryinterference. The peace
bad produced no good effect in that country, and
there was reason to fear an increaseof disorder from
the mon ber of dangerous persons who had 'found em-
"ployment in the war, but would now be at large.
He was the more anxious that Parliament would
now trust the Government with this power, be-
cagse.t ticrew,is a possibility of its not meeting till
Chris6niis when-once adjourned. 'lhe Bill which
be should propose was founded on the Insurrection

enforced by subsequent enactments : he should,

would be required to remain in their houses front

give a good reason, they should be liable to trans-
portation as idle and disorderly persons. The
Trial by Jury might be dispensed with, but only.
where the fact to be tried was, whether the
accused were orderly .or disorderly. Trusting
to .the state of many parts of Ireland, he
thought it could be no great evil, nor any con-
siderable sacrifice, to require the inhabitants to
remain within their houses from sun-set to sun-
rise. He allowed it appeared to be a great hard-
ship, but the House must consider the dreadful
consequences that must ensue, if the measure now
required were not adopted. The Hon. Gentleman
opposite •seemed to be surprized a but he could
assure the House the measure was necessary for
the safety and protection of the innocent inhabit
ants, against the lawlass and profligate proceedings
and depredations of the infatuated wretches velio
formed these illegal and desperate combinations:,
A similar measure had been introduced in 1807; and
he was sorry to say there was much More cause
for resorting to it now than there was then ; but
be would refer to docamments lately received front
Ireland. lie then read a letter from a Magistrate
in the county of Westmeath, which said, he
(the Magistrate) had to. lament, - that the ab-
sence of the lOwer orders of time people front
their houses during the night was notoriously
common, and to a great amount in point of
numbers : and to' that was chiefly owing the
cause of the disturbances that hail arisen to so great
a height. Another Magistrate had said, If the
Legislature would enact a law, requiring the
people to be within. their places of abode during
the night (that is, from sun-set to sun-rise), and
empowering the Magistrates to make domiciliary
visits. dnring such time, it could -not fail to be a:-
tended with the most salutary effects." From
1807 to 1810 no measures of 'this kind had been
found necessary ; but since that time,-these dread,
ful combinations,had been from time to time much
increasing. Nothing could be more melancholy
and diStressing than the situation of those inno-
cent inhabitants who were not concerned in these
horrid transactions. They were obliged,.rorthe pro-
tection of themselves and famimilies, task up all night
with loaded muskets by their sides, to guard against
assaults-, depredatioos, • and in many cases even
murder itself. Other
.accounts of similar distur-
bances had been received from various parts of Ire-
land ; and time misfortune was; that these assail-
ants and depredators, known by the name of
Carders, .who so numerously infested the country,
were so well armed, and so resolute, that the
ordinary provisions of the law were not suffi-
cient to protect that part of the inhabitants
who were hostile to their nefarious proceedings.
The poor industrious classes of time people were
those who suffered most. Inhabiting each a small
cottage, they were--obliged,_ after labouring hard
all day for the subsistence of themselves and fa-
milies, to sit up, all night, in order to prevent
themselves, their wives and children from he •
ing basely-and cruelly assashiated. Perhaps the
only fault they were charged-. with, was, that by
their honest industry they had been enabled
to offer to their landlords a higher rent - for
their lands, than the profligate vicious -habits
of the others would permit them to do. • If these
men were not protected, they might be Compelled
to join those associations ; and if they should he
so compelled, with what heart could an-; feeling
breast contemplate the idea of putting the law in
force against a set of unfortunate- persons, who-
were forced into. these combinations. from want of
legal protection against lawless violence.- He
then read a letter very lately received front- a Ma-
gistrate, in which it was stated, that a party of
those lawless miscreants had broken into a cabin,
and carded a man, 14 wife, and two daughters,.
who had all died in consequence of this sa-
vage
operation. The Right Honourable 'Gentle-
man then stated to the House what carding
was, viz. they took the cards with which they card
the hemp and flax, and having stripped their vic-
tims naked, they strike the sharp points into the
flesh, and by main force, rake and scrape it front
the bones,—a more cruel infliction of revenge
could not be devised. The House would perceive
that by increasing the punishment on time offenders
they could work no' good effect, and therefore,
it became necessary to make some new provision
of law, and to require that these miscreants should
be obliged to keep within their houses from sunaa
set to sun-rise, which would be the surest way to
prevent them from carrying- their infernal ma-
chinations into effect. Let not the House sup-
pose that this
,was meant as a protection of one
sect 'acting- against another, for it was, in fact,
is much a protection,of the lower orders of the
Catholics as it was of the Protestants, for Mr. Wil-
cox's letter sheaved that all the persons who had
been murdered'or otherwise ill-used in his district,
were to a man Catholics. He then gave a descrip-
tion of the different combinations which had taken •
place in Ireland since the year 1763, at which
time the White Boys first rose—then came the
Oak Boys—then the Hearts of Steel, which were
in favour of low rents, and against large farms—
and since the Union have arisen the more savage
and-cruel ones of the Carders, the Thrashers, the
Sharavats, and the Caravats. He did not believe
there was any serious design against the estab-
lished Government, but there was a combination
of certain districts, by which the law of the land
was inipeded. The Right Honourable Gentle-'
'man read several other letters from Magistrates
whose names time House 'would-see the propriety
of his concealing, received within a very few days,
all tending to the same'point,- and sliming time ne-
cessity of time measure he had alluded to. He
concluded by moving for leave to bring in a Bill
to provide for the preservation and protection of

ABERCROMBTE thought that the Parliamen-
tary practice in cases where extraordinary favours
Weee asked, was to give Parliament all oecessary
information, in the first instance, through a Se-
lect 'Or Secret. Committee. The present 1311.1, he
nilders*tood, would much reFemble a fornicer One
against which he had voted, although it was de-
vised by those in whom he placed confi;ence.—
No doubt the Right Hon. Gentleman Was sniii-
eiently prepared with documents, so that a Com-
mittee need take up no long time. fit. mill events,
the duration of the Bill shonld be so short, as to
admit a Parliamentary investigation next Selizion,
if necessary. The remedy now proposed had not
answered in the former instance.

Lord CASTLEREAGH said, that his Right Hon.
Friend had delayed coming before Parliament
with this measure as long as possible : the powers
to be given would be exercised with the utmost
possible indidgence. There was nothing to re-
quire a Secret Committee. The character of the
disturbances was dissimilar from that of former
times. The conspiracies were not Of men of
education and rank aiming at political-stihver-
sinus, though highly dangerous to personal liberty
and public peace. To have brought down a
Royal Message would, after the event of peace,
and after the experience of matters in Ireland,
have looked extraordinary in the eyes of all En-
rope, and given too important a feature to the
f.ransaction. Any Irish Member could give sof&
cient information to the House, lie had no ob-
jection to make communications, but wished to
-avoid giving the business too important a cha-
racter. .

_Sir EL. PARNELL agreed, that the disturbances
existed in a dangerous degree ; but preferred a
Conithittee, as then the i louse night not., appear
to have been influenced by any local feelingS.
Sir P. FLoop warmly supported the Bill; which
provided nothing harsher than to make the lower
orders go.to,bed at sun7sct as they.onght to do.
Ile commended Government for putting down the
aborninable' Catholic Board, iv hose proceedings
were, he knew, detested by many, as tending to
bring Odium on the natne of Catholic, through
the efforts of a few professional men, to throw
'firebrands about the laud, in order'to fill their bags
with briefs.
