TIIE LITE DR. JENNER.

A MEMBER, whose name we could not learn, requested, to
know whether there was any intention on the part of the o-
vernment to pay the tribu6 of a monument to the late Dr.
Jenner ?

iiii)llANCEl.4l..Olt of the EXCHEQUER acknowledg.
ed the important services Of Dr. Jenner.
Mr. PEEL said that there was every disposition on the part
of Goren:anent to have given Dr. Jenner a public funeral, and
a tomb in ‘Vestminster.abbey ; but that the relations of the de=
ceased wished the funeral to be private. '
On the motion that the House should resolve itself into a.
COMMITTEE 01' SUPPLY.
Mr. CREEVEY rose to expresa his surprise at the mode in
which Ministers now.n.days called upon the Ilouse for supply:
Ile believed that there was scarce a, difference of opinion
upon the state of the country, scarce a denial that persons
were every day falling from respectability, nay, from opu-
lence, into absolute beggary ; and yet the officers of the Crown
came forward for supplies as a matter of COUTO". He must really
trespass shortly upon the time of the House to compare the
course which had been usual In days gone by—in days, how.
ever, when the royal prerogative had been by no means so well
defined as at present, and when the burdens borne by the peo-
ple had been considerably lighter ;—he must compare the
course adcipted in those times with that taken in our own days
by the Ministers of the Crown. In the reign of Queen
Elizabeth, when Coke was speaker of the House, and
when such men as Bacon and Sir Welter Alildmay, Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer, on asking the House fora supply,
expressed himaelf in the following terms :—" But least that
peradventure some may judge that the contribution granted
by us now five years past, both frankly and dotifully, might
suffice for many years without any new, I dare enure you,
for the acquaintance that I have (though I be unworthy) with
those her Majesty's affairs, that the same bath not been suffi-
cient to answer the extraordinary charges, happened since then,
especially those of Irelands by the one-halt'; but her Majesty
bath supplied the rest out of her own revenues, sparing from
herself to serve the necessity of the realm, and shunning thereby
loans upon interest, as a most pestilential canker, that is able to
devour even the states of Princes." The generosity of the
Queen in that instance was not less titan the wisdoM of the Mi.
nister. But now, although we had a pestilential canker of 7
or 800 millions devouring us, Minister!' came down for money
as though nothing at all were the matter. But, to give the
House a second instance of the state in which such matters were
formerly conducted, in the 38th of Elizabeth, upon a question
of money, Sir Robert Cecil brought forward the, motion for
supply; and Sir John Fortescue, Chancellor of the Exchequer,
in supporting the motion, after stating all the Queen had done'
at home and abroad iridefending her neighbettra and her king.
dom against the power of Spain, said—" Besides, when her .
Majesty canie to the Crown, she found it four millions indebt.
ed ; her navy, when she came to view it, she found greatly de-
cayed; yet all this she has discharged, end, thanks to God, is
i
nothing indebted t and now she is able to Match any Prince 1
in Europe, irhlch the Spaniards found when they came to'
invade us. Yea, she bath with her ships compaesed the whole
world, whereby this land is made famous throughout all placed.
As for her own private eXpencea, they have been little in build.
fag ; she bath consumed little or nothing in her pleasures ; as
for her apparel, it is royal and princely, beaeeming her calling,
but not sumptuous nor excessive; the charges of her house
small ; yet, never less In any Kitties time, and shortly; by Cad's
grace, she will free her subjects *on) that trouble which bath
come by the means of purveyors. Wherefore she trusteth that
every good subject will assist her Majesty with his purse, see.
lug it concerns his own good and the preservation of hia estate,
and for these subsidies which are granted, now they are less by
half than they were in Henry Vllf.'s time." Now, all this
tool; place just after the defeat of the Spanish Armada, and at
time, therefore, when the people would probably_ have granted
the Queen any thing she could - have asked. Why, when the
Ministers of the present day came to ask for supply—why did
they not come in the same tone and with something like the same
Assurances, with statements of economy carried into practice,
and promises of the abolition of grievance:,'? Whersthe agri-
eultursts werainvolved in ruin—when they were stitTering from
the change in the state of the currency, would it not hr. rea-
sonable that at least every official salary which had been raised

°tight "tite, not to be reduced,

had so far increased ? This applied to pe:so:ta of all deocrip- - i
tine who held places from the highest to the lowest. The si-
uecuree had been tolerated log enough. It was the duty, of
Ministers to obolish 0161 forthwith. ,ad this they ought espe-
cially to have done, before they tune to a* the Rouse to vote
fresh supplies. If the Ministers of Queen Elizabeth thought
it theirduty, to -preface their 'motion' for 'supplies, wi a
communication that the grievance of purveyances had been
abated,so much the more were we now entitled to relief, from
the no less burdensome grievance of sinecures, .that immense

had recommended the Crown to sacrifice a pan of its
revenue to the wants of the people. No man now lie-
lug could tell 'what might be the result of the country's elms-
anon. No man could say. whether the present distresses
might not end in a Conflict for the possession of property.
Let any man look at the temper displayed at the, county
meetings which were daily, taking place; let them look at
the heart.bornings which existed between persons hav-
ing opposite interests, and different descriptions of property.
He knew of only otie thing which could prevent a fatal ter-
mination to this state of things, anti that was ecknoiny—
(llear !)--strietand universal economy. lithe Crown would give
up part of the civil list, he had no doubt that so noble an exam-
' plc mould be followed by the most beneficial consequences.--
He was led to ask the reason of the difference between the mode
of granting supplies now, and at the period to which he had
alluded. In the time' of Queen Elizabeth, the supplies had
been considered as sacrifices on the part of ehe subject, which
were to be appropriated to some public purposes. The Mem.
hers, and those whom they represented, had one common ob.
ject. The House of Commons had not then invented or dis-
covered the means of applying the supplies to their own private
benefit or emolument —(Hear ),--A perfect revolution had been
effected in this respect in the House and in the country. Eight
hundred millions of debt--a patronage of themost injurious ex-
tent, and corresponding establishments and influence, had
placed the administration of the country in such a condition as
could not have been imagined in the -time of Queen Elisabeth.
The Ministers of the Crown had introduced this patronage in-
to the House of Commons. He did not state this invidiorsly,
but it was the fact. It was known that 'Ministers possessed
the power of giving away offices, and that Members very na-
turally thought their sons, their relations, or their friends,
were as fit to fill them as other persons. This it was that
had created a revolution in the character of the House, and
this he maintained to be the true stilution of the difference
between the manner of asking supplies now and then. To ask
for them now, was only to ask alembers to help themselves,
and to supply their families and friends. It was known to every
one, that in the Report of the Committee relative to the office
of Receiver-General, it appeared that two or three Members
had been scrambling for the same place. In thp reign of Ed-
,
ward VI.. a part of the SubSidy Bill provided, that no Mem-
ber should take any part in the collection of it; and now Gen-
tlemen were riding awe one another, in pursuit of their shares.
The Constitution was no longer composed of that equal and
wholesome division of power between the King, the Lords,
and the Commons; but between the Crown and the Mini-
sters,, one .of whom held the power, and the other the pa.
mime° of the State. Much was said of the splendour of
the. Crown ; but it' it were to be compared with that which
was displayed by Queen Blizabeth, it would ho seen that
it was now redueed to a mere raree.show. 'We heard of the
King being lit or well, and of his making occasional excur.
sione; but we had no satisfactory, no intimate knowledge of him.
He was in fact a mere splendid annuitant upon his Ministers;
but as for the sympathy between the Court and the people,
which had distinguished the past era to which he had so often
been compelled to refer, there was not a vestige of it left. Not
only had this revolution taken place, but officers of State had
been introduced whose names had never been heard of before.
The manager of the Heim of Commons was now talked of as

familiarly as the first Lord of the Admiralty : he was a recoge
nized officer, and such a one as never could have arisen but
from the cause he had *fated.: He would beg permission to
quote to the house a speech of Lord Bacon's, on this subject,
who, in that very' place, had treated as a chimera the attempt
to manage the House of Commons. It was. delivered in the
first year of the reign of James L, who, when he creek to the
throne was much more anxious to obtain money than the house
was willing to grant it to him. It was rumoured that certain
officious tnembere had undertaken to get for the King the sup-
plies he wanted. The debate was conducted with considerable
beat, and the matter treated tie a violation of the ditty of the
house. Lord Bacon, who was then the Attorney-Generel, and
sittingin Parliament, merle the fallowing speech
" Air. Speßker—l have been hitherto silent in this matter.; of
undertaking wherein the House ix much enwreoped,—first, be-
cause, to be plain with you, I did not well iinderstand what it
meant or what it was, and I do not love to offer at that that I do
not thoroughly conceive, that private men should undertake for
the Commons of England ! by a man might as well undertake
for the four elements. It is a thing so giddy and so vast, it can.
not enter into the head of a sober man, and especially in a new
Parliament, when it was impossible to know who should be of
the Parliament, and•when all men that know ever so little the
constitution of this House do know it to be so open to reason
as men do rim know when they enter into these doors what
mind thernmelveS will be of until they hear things argued
and debated ; much less can any man make a policy of assu-
rance what ship shall come safe into the harbour in these
seas. There were Undertakers for the plantations of Derry and
• Coleraine, in Ireland, the better to command and bridle those
parts; but for the ancient Parliament of England, which
moves in a certain manner and sphere, to be undertaken, it
passes my reach to conceive what it should be, Must there be
some forts built in this House that may commend and contain
the rest ?. Alr. Speaker, I know but two forts in this House,
which the King ever bath—the fort of affection, and the fort of
reason ; the one commands the hearts, and the other commands
the heads, and others I know none. Then for the King, no.
thing can be more opposite to his end,' and hopes than this—
for you have heard him profess like a King, and like a gracious
King—that be doth not so much respect his present supply as
the demonstration that the people's hearts are more knit to bins
than before. Now, then, if the issue shall be this, that whatso.
ever shall be done for hint shall be thought to be done but by a
number of persons that shall. be laboured and packed, this will
be rather a sign of diffidence and alienation, than of a natural
benevolence and effection in'his people at home, and rather mat-
tee of disreputation than of-honour abroad ; so that, to speak
plainly, the King had better call for a new pair' of cards than
play upon these if they be packed; and then for the people, it is
my manner ever to look AN well beyond a Parliament as upon a
Parliatnent ; and if they abroad 1,41 l think themselves betrayed
by those that are their deputies and atternies here, it is true we
may bind them and conclude them, but it will be with such
murmur and insstisfartion as I would be loth to see. These
things might be dissembled, anti so things left to bleed inwardly;
but drat is not the way to cure them : and therefore I have
searched the sore in hope that elm will endeavour the medicine."
.—That which Lord Bacon had discussed as a mere chimera,
had now come to pass. The cards were now packed ; that
House was
,packed. His Hon. Friend the Member for
Shrewsbury had shown satisfactorily that th cre svere seventy-nine
Members in that House who might be called the court cards.
It appeared, also, that they received' 8,000/. per annum of the
'public: money, and on questions of supply they might be called
sure cards. But these, numerous as they were, were inconside.
Table compared with those who were bound to Mlnistere by be.
nefits received by different parts of their families. If a list
could be shown of all the persons who had applied for a share
of the advantages of this patronage, and added to the 89 other
persons, it would be seen the majority preponderated so far es to
render it vein to expect any relief for the necessities of the
country. This, then, was the solution of the manner in which
supplies were now voted. He would do ail that the forms of the
House would allow him on the pp resent occasion, and he would
propose, in addition to the motifin that the House resolve itself
into a Committee of Supply, that it should also take into eons'.

aeration the means,of allealating the grievances of the people.—
This had been done over and over again, and the right of tic.
cussing grievances before supplies had been often asserted.
The SPEAKER then put the Amendment. Strangers were
ordered to withdraw,' when
• Mr. , CREEVEY withdrew his amendment, and said he
wished only to obtain a pledge front Ministers that the nee.
plc's grievances shpuld have that immediate attention to which
they were entitled.
Alr. Secretnry. CANNING did not with to detain the House,
but he thought it necessary to explain, in very few wbrda, the
view which lie took of' the question before them. If he op-
