altrecinan of the Borough of Helston' praving.to be heard by
himself and counsel for a !till now in Parliament, to distract,
chise the Elecuirs of Helston, on the ground of bribery and

Lord GRENVILLE, without Riving s distinct opinion upon

titioner had not an interest lo entitle bins to ha heard in sup-
port of a measure which was to Operate as a penal proceeding.
The LORD CHANCELLOR,cotiId not admit that the Pe-
titioner had any right Whatever to be heard by. Counsel, or

ble Earl to defer the consideration of iLhe Petition till to-

Lord STANHOPE acquiesced.
WAR WITH NAPLES. •
Earl GREY, adverting to his intention to move
for information on the war with Naples,. said he
had understood since he entered. the Boise, that
. the Noble Earl did not object to the prttilhetipn
of information With respect to all commoilication
Which had passed hetweeu .this country AO the
Government of Naples. That information *as all
he then wanted, and when it was produced he
should know whether ulterior information was re-
quired. Under those circumstances, he .wasonly
desirous of:asking the Noble Earl how he iiireod-
, ed to on-Mike the infiwtnation. He luye.d, the
Nnblc Earl would not require from him a motion
the subject. Earl Grey then proceeded to
state, that the armistice concluded with
.I\TaOles
bad worn the appearance of a' negociation for
peace, and.that it was to be considered dnegocia-
tion, . If so, it tens the custom of Goverlnnent,
whenever a negociation for peace was unsuccess-
ful, to make a conitnunicatiotctinder the authority
of the Crown, to ParliaMent announcing the hot.
lie therefore expressetha hope that the informa-.
Lion would be communicated in :a regular way, un-
tier Royal authority, and in proper form.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, on the first ,part
of the Noble Earl's object there-was aio differeuce
of opinion. was ready to agree with him on
the question of producing papers he had no ob-
jection to produce the information sought for in
the. full extent: With respect to the usage of Par-
liament, he was not aware of arty case where a',inistice broken- had been the-subject of aßoyal mes-
sage to Parliament. The rupture of the ar-
mistice in this case might be cOnsidered as
forming a part of the general question arisicig
out of the Ti+atit'S of Vienna, yet 'his Lordship
Was not unwilling, in consequence oft he prejudice
attached to the question, to offer a few observa-
tions, with a view to remove that prejudice. With-
out going overall the details, it might be neces-
sary to state the leading features of the artuisl ice,
And the circumstances .‘vhich had led to a rupture
of the same. The House was aware of the situa-
tion'Of Europe when it was considered expedient
by Austria and the Allies to conclude an armistice
with the present Ruler of Naples. In that ticaty
of armistice the British Government beCame* a
party, and it guaranteed the King of Sicily an
indemnity for Naples. They never erg.lged"olti--
mately to separate Naples from its ancient no-
oarch. A most anxious desire was expressed on
the. part of Austria to, conclude peace with the
Sovereigo: of-Naples-, as that arrangement was
considered. favourable to the conclusion of the
great cause of the-Allies. The treaty was con-
Chided!, and two of the principal articles were,
first, that indemnity should be given to'the King
vi Sicily out of the Italian States ; and, se-
condly, that the person at present Sovereign of
Naples should co-operate with .the Allies. If
- compensation had been giver) the King of Naples
add Sicily by Mar4hal Murat, and lie had co-ope-
rated with the Allies, this country would have
been ()quit to preserve the relation,of peace and
amity with him ; but the question was, whether
there had been any indemnity and co-operation to
justify, this county in keel sing the armistice.—
The paperS he had to furnish would_ prove whe-
ther there was cordial' co-operation. There was
reason to suspect he was not co-operating with the
Allies, but waiting to decide by the oecurrencesof
circumstances which. -of the contending parties
should have his Aervices. The first information
of departure from engagements was received
by the Government with great jealousy, but
when a Noble Friend arrived from Paris in Lon-
don, information was receiv-ed from a qoar-
. ter which gave,the Governnient a firm conviction,
that engagements had been made between Mar-
shal Murat and the military powers of FranCe.-!-=
The circumstance became the subject of a- memo-
rial at Congress, and. on a reference to
,General
Nugent, the Austrian General wino had bi;en op-
posed to Marshal Murat, and also.Lord.William
Bentinek, it was proved that he • hail violated
every engagement. His Lordship said, he ,could
prove that was the -sentiments of the French au-
thorities in Italy, and the person who now fills
the situation of Minister of Police at Paris. This
country had been always noted for its good faith,
and on no quibble could the. Government have
departed front their engagements.- His Lordship
concluded by observing, that this statetnent would
be snpported by the papers_ he should produce.
Lord GREY contended,,, -at considerable length,
that co-operation had been afforded by Murat,
and, though be did not wish to be the apologist
of that Sovereign, he was bound to say;that Mu-
rat was not the person to whom the King of Si-
cily had right 'to look for indemnity. 'After a this,
covery of his perfidy by the reports
.of General
Nugent, Lord Bentinck, • and the Marquis Cam-
pochiaro, the Government 'should hare made it
public, and by that proceeding they would have
served their old 'and fai*ful Ally, the King of
Sicily. The
.Noble Earl- having adverted to the
letter of the Prince of Benevente to Lord Castle-
reagh, which he considered a •black record, of
crime in diplomacy, reserved himself for future
discussion when the papers came before the House.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL. explained, and, moved
an AddreSs to his Royal Highness the Prince
Regent, for
" Copies of the Papers connected tenth the Armistice be-
twcen the Allies and the King:of Naples."
Lord GnestviLLE Objected to the motion as an
irregular proce'eding. There had been no ratifi-
cation of the Treaty, and he implored their Lord-

'hips riot 'rine irrtttdarit tti iithOtTneb

forth, but the: greatett objection•%vas, that nO
no-
tice had been given of the-Nobi Lord's
Earl liArnuasT deNnded the conduct ° Go-
vernment iii granting the papers.
After some further eliscossion between Earl
GREY and Lord LIVERPOoL; the motion Was
agreed to without a division.---Adjourned.

TREATY WITII N.; PLEs. •
Air. Hon:ll4R rh,p, and stated to the House,
that the Noble Lord opposite. had givot no inti-
Mation whether the papers lie intended to move
for would be granted or refu,Pd., But be hail
heard that the Noble Lot d, though he wrmld not
grant all the papers, would at least grant.such as
he should deem it more peculiarly his duty to move
fora if the Noble Lord was disposed to grant
anv papers, he (Mr. Horner) shonld think it the
most constitutional course,..trpon the emergency
of hOStiiiiies with Naples, that a comaninication
should be made to ti tt.l-10n,..e fro;ii the Crown
It had been the practise-of the Constitution to
cominunicate, on such occasions, the grounds of
hostilities. Should the noble Lord grant what
was the object of the present motion, it would
be much better'Ef he uould state so to the House,
and prevent the waste of tinvf. lie (Mr. Horner)
was desirous of knowing his intentions, -and whe-
sher he would grant acommunication of What hail
passed hetwixt Ministers and the Ruler of-Naples,
though he did not press firr_a communication of
the proceedings of the Congress. _ .
Lord GISTLERE.I9iI said, . that on a former oc-
casion the Hon. Gentleman and his Friends seem-
ed. to think, that. they had-stitiiciently full infer-
'nation to open the case to Parliament, and to
charge the ClaVernmetit with a breach of faith.—
On a subsegnent occasion, the Member who sat
next the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Whitbread) ha:l
enuleavotnecd to convince the House that such a
breach of faith had been committed. He could
nut see-why the lion. Gentleman should not state
the grounds of hhi motion, as the charge of
breach -of faith had been made in the most unqua-
lified manner ; and it haul been contended, that a
convictive sense of blame had been telt. He had
attended in his place to. meet the charge that
might be preferred.
Mr. IloaNteit had never in the coarse of his
•Parliaioentary experience -known a suggestion so
received as his own had jnq now been. The
Noble-Lord' might enjoy: his short-lived triumph,
and exclaim, that he did not shripk from inquiry,
but be must repeat that his suggestion had not
been treated with justice. He had wished to save
an unnecessary waste of time, if the Noble Lord
had but pleased to say, aye or no, as to the ques-
tion if it were fit or proper that the papers should
be gi.anted. It appeared that the papers had been
granted in, the outer House of Piirliament, (Lotid
cries Tie Order and bemight, had he been-so in-
clined, have embarrassed the Noble Lard. He
(Lord C.) mast have felt the force of the rqmark
Jul the conctitutional practice of sending a Hies.:
sage to Parliament• to announce the commence-
Went ontostilities, though he had chosen to pass
it over without notice. He should now open the
subject of the motion fully, as his opinion was not
changed ; if it had, lie would have said
The Noble Lord must have been misinformed-as
to what had taken place in his absence ; as lie,
and those with whim be acted, had asked if
facts were so, aMI Ministers had either left the.
House in ignorance, or wjre in ignorance them-
,selves, and with respect to events that had
.gone
by. The whole of their conduct, • with respect
to G.enoa and to Saxony, was enough- to'satisfy
the House, that what was stated as to' theiv•con-
duct to' Murat was trite, and that a breach of
faith had been proved. As to the grounds of his
:notion, what had been stated yesterday by the
Noble Lord as to our being in a state of hostility.
with Murat, !hewed that the present was a pro-
per time for inquity. He had pill the questiOn
to the Noble Lord, whether there was eitlitr
a formal Treaty, or -any thing equivalent to
au honorary engagement with the present Ruler
of Naples, and %this question the Noble Lord
bad not been prepared to answer. That was
the ground of the present motion.
,His infor7
'nation was necessarily imperfect, and' he wished-
the House 'to possess information that was not
imperfeet. The papers would refer to" three
periods ; the first was, that portion of last
year that bad been employed in war; the second
embraced the time .of the discusslons at Vienna and the third related to any uegociations that
might have begun or been continued since- that
time. One of the papers that he intended to
move for was, the Treaty betwixt the Court of
Naples and that of Vienna; dated Jan. 11, 1814;
A statement had been made to Murat by the Ca-
binet of Vienna, that England would enter into

a Cuilillloll CaftSe, 10 the case of a mere stispen-
shin of hostilities ? It, in fact,- approached nearer
to a treaty Of Offensive alliamte than to a mere-
treaty of peace.- -1n consequence of this, add
without even svaiting for the signature, Murat
advanced, with his troops, atid a more important
improvement took place in the affairs of the Al-
lies in Italy. The Viceroy Reauhartiois had tinder
Irint with whrtm he was acting on
45i000 men,
the offensive against Marshal Bellegarde, betwixt
the rivers Adige and the Mincio ; hut, on the ad-
vance of Murat he found himself obliged to retreat,.
and could only act ou the defensive. That was-
the first fruit of Murat's co=operation under a
treaty with Austria, and an armistice with Eng-
land. It was an. important
.consideration to re-
concile the engagements contracted with the King
of the Two SiCilies, and that with. the King of
Naples ; but the -later engagement was perfectly
compatible with the good faith due to the King
of Sicily. In the treaty made with the Sicilian
Court by Sir W. Drummond, in 1808, it was an
express article that no peace should be made with
France, without consulting the intereQt Of- Sicily.
Mit in the treaty of Palermo, of 1812, there was
no guarantee to secure Naples, and the-guarantee
seas confiued to Sicily alone. There was up ar--
gilinent to he found for the war with Murat in
our eugagements with Sicily, as,they.only extend-
ed to a guarantee of that island to the
then came so that part of the question when first
cause of suspicion arose in _the mind of Murat,
and he began to think that the Allies did not
mean to do that which they,w.ere pledged to.—
He understood that the delay on the part.of the
Court of Vienna, to ratify the Treaty 'entered
into with Murat, arose from the- English
Minister wishing to become a party to the
treaty, which he could not till some modifications
were agreed to. Under these circumstances, the
ratification of the Treaty was delayed', and a pro=
miSe was-given that it should be ratified as, soon
as these matters were arranged, according to_ the.
stipulations of the 11th of January. -1 his p&
wise was often renewed, but never, fulfilled, till
at leg:ll:Murat declared, that he would not ad-
v.ance unless the Treaty teats ratified on the 4th of
March. The Emperor of Austria wrote,q,promise
that it should be ratifieil. This letter
.was received
.by Murat on the 4th of March, and on the 6tla.
he advanced and took Reggio, and follimed up
his success till he was Under the walls of Plaeentia:.
Ile would therefore ask, if there- could be any'
doubt of the good faith of at least One of the par-
ties to this moment ? The Hon. and Learned
Gentleman next adverted to the dispatches of the
Ministers of Murat at Vie Una, :which stated,
au ondetitanding that the British Government
would accede to the Treaty, and the only
reas,-1 why the- N'oble.Ltud did not accede at
the time was, that an -.indemnity was, wanted
for Sicily. ;If the Noble Lord would deny the.
ground of that understanding the Hon. Member
would give full credence to that denial ; but if
not, he tvotild maintain that this country Was as
much pledged to the Treaty, as if the seals' hao
been affixed co it. Adverting to the iatercoUrses•
between Murat and Lfird W. 'Bentinek, and-- the
instructions - given to the latter:lie 'maintained;
that if his iutormation was correct, -he 'mist de-
duce from it, that we Were as ninth bound by
the. Treaty as Austria- -herself. The Hon. Gen-
deman.quoted a di.f.pateh Of Lord ,Castlereagh to
prove- the importanee'of Murat to the Coalition, and
adverted to the proclamation of t he. Prince. Regent
of Sicily, circulated in Lord W. l'..nitinek's army,
to spew that Murat had cause for jealousy,
which was felt by the Noble Lord (Castlereagh),
who wrote from ajon.on the 34 of April, dis-
countenancing the act of circulating die luoclaina-
tion in Tuscany. The armi‘stice, ft,i it was called,
admitted the principle of Murat's right to Naples,
and the authority to comnitinicate with hint re-
cognised his claim to the throne. If ell or-any
of those eireinnstances were true, it, was plain
that serious engagements on the part of England
had been entered into with Murat ; and then it
was -to be asked, what services Murat had ren-
dered,! He had enabled Belle garde to
,withstand
tl.ie Viceroy lieaularaois, who had in Italy 8.4,000
men, 45,000 of whorn'were disposed

h while Bellegarde had only 31,000
ef-
fectiveteAdi;ge-ist was true, he, had, in all frOm GO to
70,000 ; but :30;000 were sick-, anti 10,000 actual-
ly died it was Murat, therefore, who turned the
fate of the Italian war. These circumstances, in
his opinion, formed at least a case for inquiry.
It had been said that our engagements with Mu-
rat consisted of art armistice only; and it might
perhaps be said, that we had not recognized Ain-
rat as King, brit that we had Merely- stipulated
that he should have an indemnity for. Naples ; but
the facts must be made out by full
,proof to be
available. . Perhaps recriminatitan mght- be re-
sorted to for the purpose of defence, and for the
honour of the country, he shduld be glad if 'bad
faith could be shifted elsewhere ; but this must
be done with reference to dates, which would.
be every thing, for the cambia of the Allies had
placed Murat in such a situation, as to make him
act in a suspicious manner. It had been
said, that Murat had proposed to join Beauhar-
pais, to unite Italy against both France 'and
Austria ; and it had also been said, and he hoped
would contradicted, that Lord AV. 13entinck
had proposed to unite with General Bell2!garde to
attack Find paralyse Murat ; but _for neither of
dense facts wolthl be vouch. The question then
_was, whether-we had kept our seagagements. with
Murat, and further, whether his title' Ought to
