On the motion of the LORD ADVOCATR for SCOT-
LAND, and the testimony of Mr. Herbert, a medical
Gentleman, Mr. Johnson way excused furthur at-

count of ill health.
MARINE Nl.ll-11.NY BILL.
Mr. R. WARD mated for leave to bring in the
Marine Mutiny• Bill.
CALcuAer wished to know from the Hon.
Secretary if it was meant to bring in a Bill, conueded
with the Compassionate List, for the Relief of the
• Widows of Naval Officers.
Mr. WARD replied, that as far as the Office
ryas
concerned, every thing was ready for that pur-
pose.
• Leave was then given, and Mr. Wsnis brought
• in the the motion ter its being read a
• first time,
Sir CHARLES PoLs begged leave to call the atten-
tion of the House for a few minutes to the situation
• , bf the Marine Carps. Nu person but must be con-
vinced of what'eensequence they were to our national
defence, amounting in number to one-fourth of the
regular army. In the year 1804, when Lord Melville
was at the head of the Admiralty, it was thought.
right to add to the Marine Establishment four Coro
of Marine Artillery. This was a most 'useful and ex--
cellent measure, bet he was afraid thLio Corps. were
not exercised as they ought. to be. In his °plebe
this species of • force ought also to be increased, as
they afforded so much the means :of • safety to our
Colonies. The Honourable Baronet then stated,
that the Marines were not in so good a condition as
formerly, since in 1755 promotion in the Army was
open lta, the Marine Service, rind several distin-
guialted.Officers bad been procured from it.
Nei-
ther had they so full an establistnuent- Field4C6-
cers as he thought they were entitled.to. Though
in ntunber equ tl to twenty-six battalions, they had
only 41 field-etficers, while the Royal Artillery, of
• only t t battalions, were allowed 77. -• He however
commended the present Adminisiratiqn for raising
the number to 45. Theie were Captains in the Ma-
rines who had. obtained their on commissions'
prior td the comniencetneet ef the American War,
Which chew eel that their. pro Motion was more tardy
than in the line. There was no system of educa-
tion • for that service, and, he could not see why
Wool wick should not be opened to. them as: well as
to .the artillery. The l'ay Captains, with an extra-.
ordinary share of ditty, had no additional pay; and
• when the Marines were landed, Oen- officers had no
fixed rank, nor did they knoW, as they ought to do,
where: they Wereto be. placed. All these suggestions
he threw out,' not as finding fault, but merely as
hints to the House, to have this importantisubjed
considered and discussed.
, Mr. it. WARD said he could not be supposed to be
ao well acquainted with this subjed us the Hon.
Baronet, but there were some points on which' even
a Civilian might point out an .answer to. the sugges-
tions. Of the Marine Corps in general he would
premise no man can hatie a higher opinion Olin be
had, or be more convinced of the services they had
rendered, and the gallantry they had uniformy
• dis-
played. . With reaped to the increase of the'atarine
iirtillery, he conceived that could. mu take place
without increasing the Ittree altogether, and con-
verting the marines into a land way on shore. • The.
flott Baronet had mat only net censured, but had
commended the present Administration for adding
to the number of their Field Officers,. bet complained
. that they were 1101 yet as numerous in:proportion as.
in the Royal Artillery lt,Ought to he rementbered,
however, that Marines on board of ships were not
commanded by Field• Officers, and as tootit of them
_ware, engaged in that ,species of service, it was not
necessary to bavii.sti many Field Officers., • As for
the age of .sotrie of :the Captains' he could only say',
that as it was a service in whichOfficeet rose by se-
' ntoritys thrit „could only depend upon the length of
itie of those, who preceded them on the fist. into
the pay of .the Pay Captains he would inquire,
and was sure that if for any extraordinary la-
. boor, any rectimpence could,be madele them with-
out injury to the service, it would be instantly al-
.'. Col dtql. • • •
Mr.;LocKnaar made a few observations, after
which the Bill Was read a first time, and ordered to
be read secondlimeisto-morrow.

and now seeing a Right Hon. Secretaty in his place,
would not put the 'question whether the letter from

CALL OF THE HOUSE.

Lord Fot.x.sTotrz moved; that this Order,be read
for the purpose of postponing it.till to-morrO*.
The CHANCELLOR of: the ExcuEnuatt suggested
-to the Noble Lord, .that'as it tmght be poisible thla
night for the House to conclude whether it was pro.
per to adopt the mode of Address or Resolutions,.
Whops it would be better not to propose his motion
at so.early an hour before the decision, upon that
tort of the question which' pointed out the most
convenient mode of proceeding. He could wish it
to be held over their heads till the end of their sit-
ting this evening, that in case they did come to buy
decisiob, the opportunity of such a break in the dis-
cussion might. be seized, to move. a short adjourn-
ment,
,Which was not only desirable for the health
and strength of the Membete, but also to enable
them to come with a clear and nnfatigued mind tci'a
final decision upon a question so' important. For
himself, he was free to confess that five night! in.
a week'sitting up till three or four o'clock in the
morning, and
,being again called on at an early hour
to fultil the other dutieS of his' official situation, was,
be found, too much fatigue for him
,to undergo.
Thb health also of the respeOahle person in the chair
was 'an objed not to be trifled with, though he was
Sore be would be the last person to complain of it.
What he wished, therefore, was, that the Noble.
Lord should not push his motion till the rising of the
House, when, it they had decided between the Ad•
dress and Resolutions, he. would , move for an ad.
joumment of this debate over Wednesday, and that
the Call of the House be enforced on Thursday ;
and if they did not come to any decision then, that
the present motion for a Call to-morrow, When the
business 'should go on, might•be acceded to.
Lord FOLKSTONE was' ready to accord io the' pro-
I position of the Right Hon. Gentleman, not only on
I his own account, but on account of. the 'Right Hon,
Member who tilled their Chair. Fie had only to
observe, that his desisting at this rhoinent did not
imply that the Call was dropped, but that, whether,
tomorrow or the next day, it must be enforced till
) the busiow.s is concluded. • •

Lord TEMPLE! said, . tats feelings-towards the Right
Hon. Speaker were paramount to every other con-
sideration. But he' conjured the House upon no
other consideration to put off or delay coming to !a
deci,ion upon this quesion, upon which the eves of
thetonntry were fixed, and in which the character
or the Illustrious Individual accused was so much,
implicated :and injured by every moment that was
lost. .

The SPEAKER returned his thanks to the How
for their attention tuwarcli him, and the indulgenc4
with which they seemed disposed to treat him., bat
he might venture, :.without ,itfectation, to say, that
he:found-noldisabtlity in himself to continue to dis-
charge his duty, so long as they found it .expedient
to carry on these discussions.
Lot'd FOLKSTONE then withdrew his motion for
• the present:
BREACH OF PRIVILEGE.

Mr. HIINNY SMIVII, before the House proceeded.
to the other business of 'the night, wished. to call
their attention .to a matter which affeCted their privk
loges, JO whatever manner, the speeches of Metif--
bers might ,be reported out of doors, he watt,snre,
that, even in sOhumble an inditlidual as himself, tney
ought not to be misrepresented.' A Morning l'aPer,
in stating the purport of what ,tell front him last
night, said, that he ‘,spoke in favour of, the mo..
14:n of the .ChanCellOr of the Exchequer," Nothing
could bps farther from his view of the subject, as
those 11m..Getitlemen who, ha.d done hint -the hos,
near of attending to -him, would be ready to bear
witness.. The House were indeed at • the time ha
spoke very impatient, and. this, perhaps, with the
noise, that prevailed, .and the disturbed state at the
House, alight prevent the person who reported him
front hearing distinelly what he said. The line he
took, balm' 'front agreeing with the Chancellor of
the Exchequer, was to point out the necessity Of
putting the Duke of-York upon his trial; find giving
him an opportunity of defending himself. He had
thought it netessary to say this much, in order toot
himself right, but did'ttot mean to take any ulterior
proceedings, as all his.phrposes were attained by ex-
plaining the matter.
