miry, heir Lordships. should, in justice, to them-
selves, have pass a Bill t-,roagh that House,
£n:l to send it for the concurrence of the other.
A vlriety of circumstances occurred in the course
of the pr-sent Session, which tended to render it
inconvenient-to take up the subject before; but
he felt the 'necessity of taking soMe steps so
strongly, that be wished his Noble Friend would
come forward orr.the occasion/ late as the period
, pf the Session was, .and looking.also at the con-
sVteration. that nothing may be done in the nest
Sessioli unless some preliminary steps were adopt-
ed in the present ; and he earnestly wished that
the subject suight be taken up in
,the:present Ses-
sion, and speedily brought under their Lordships
consideration.-
Earl 611.1:y felt, 'in :common with the Noble
Lords, the foree of the evils which resulted from
the delays in the administration of justice. But
as the measure had been delayed so long, he must
deKecate its.ngitation at a pertod of the Session,
when .a due attendance could not be expected.
Before any proceedings were adopted, he, holy-
. over, -thought it would he necessary to ascertain
the-precise 'nature and cause of the grievance of
which they complained. -.‘l.vbether" or not it were
referable to such an increase of business in the
Court of 'Chancery, as rendered it impossible for
:the present. Chancellor to discharge his duty in
the samemanner as former ChancellOrs had done;
to the ilatisfaction of the public. He meant not
the least refitction upon, 'the *Noble Lord on the
Wooliack, but he really thought it proper that
full information should be obtained as to 'these
points, before any remedied measure was resolved

,upon.
Lord REDESD.tLE and the LORD CHANCELLOR
spoke 'at considerable length in explanation; and
.for the present the subject was dropped.
A corifeyenee Was held with the Com Mons,
which respected the .amendments made by their
"LOrdThips in the Whitby Harbour 33111. Their
Lordships deputation was headed by the Duke of
Montro,;e, who laid the report of the conference
-upon the table.

ORDERS IN COUNCIL.

Earl FITZ WILLIAI adverted to. the evidence
which had been adduced a.26.4' their Lordships' bar,
in
•
respect of the allegatioW in the various Yeti-
:tion, a,d which, he thought, fully established
those allegatious.. Under' the present circum-
stances he dia, not feel it necessary to bring for-
ward the subject to their Lorlships' consideration
in the way "he had intended. it was matter of
great conriatulation, and likely to produce, the
happiet effects, that his Majesty's Ministers had
thought proper to renounce 'the error of their
former conduct; and adoptesl measures that tend-
ed to restore to their formercomfortsthe numbers
of distressed\ and 'unhappy manufacturers from
thaedeplorable situation in which the impolicyof
.ISlinsters had placed them.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL begged leave to aver,
on the part of his Majesty's Government, that
they had not renounced the system of policy which
had-been adopted : on the contrary, they consi-
dered, that the measures which they advised as
retaliatory upon the enemy, and which had been
commenced by an antecedent Administration,
were attended with the most beneficial effects.

'What the measures were which led Ministers to
adviie his Royal llighness the Prince Regent's
conduct on the present crisis, it would not now
be regular to inquire into, on such an intimation
as that given by the Noble Earl. Undoubtedly,
under the preient circumstances, and .in conse-
quence of a measure recently adopted by the
French Government, it was deemed advisable by
his Majesty's Government, With reference to mea-
sures to be adopted at both sides of the water, to,
repeal the Orders in question, as far as' respected
.American ships ; and this proceeding may lead to
that species of understanding which may induce
beneficial results to the commerce of the country.
‘Vhat the conduct of Government would be, in
case these expectations were disappointed, .it was
neither proper nor necessary to state then. • He
would only state, that his Majesty's Government
had reserved to themselves the full right and power
of again recurring to the system, should events
:render it necessary:
The Marquis of LANgDOWNE asserted, that the
'Conduct of Ministers evinced to every person of
common sense and observation,
,an adnusiion on
their paitS,-that it was the light thrown on the
Subject Of the Orders 'in Council by the recent in-
quiry that had induce. theirjecentmeasures, and
not arly declaration made by the French. Govern-
ment, as-now referred to by the Noble Earl.—
What he rose for, was for, the purpose of .submit-
ting a motion, to which, he conceived no ObjeC-
tion would be made, viz.'for the production of the
efocument lately issued by the Prince Regent. It
*as, however, with no hostile view he thus came
forward; on the contrary, he was happy in offer-
ing his humble tribute of approbation of that
Measure: it was satisfactory to this Country, and'
it ought to be satisfactory to the United States of
America. But it was in this instance only that he
approved of the conduct of Ministers : they might
have rendered unnecessary the exposure which
took place at their' Lordships' ba'r, sheaving to the
world and the people of the United States, the
mischiefs 'Which may arise to the manufacturing
interests of this country by the- stoppage of the

trade with America, and by which itivas possible
that the United States may be induced to presume

too much, and wish to go-bcyond that line which
the maritime rights and honour of this country
prescribed ; and he hoped.he might be allowed to
state that no person lv,ould feel more anxiety than
be himself to support Government in resisting
such demands. The Noble Marquis then moved
au Addres's to is Royal Highness the Prince Re-

gent, praying, " that a Copy of- tire Declaration,
iwaeciby command of his Royal Highness on the
23d tine, 1812,, be laid before the House."

This, on the question being put, was at once
ordered by the Hot6e, and their Lordships, after
forwarding the Bills upon the table—AdjoUrned
