The Marquis of LONDONDERRY inquired whether
her Majesty's Government were united in a cordial ap-
probation of Mr. Bulwer's recent conduct, without any
reflections of indiscretion on his part in the orders he
had received? It was not a question as to whether the
Government of Spain was good or bad, but a bad Go-
vernment was better than no Government at all. There
were several Spaniards pensioners on the English
Government. Now he thought it would be advisable
to stop those pensions until the Spanish landholders had
been paid up their arrears. He objected to the pay-
ments which were made to Spanish refugees. He would
conclude by moving fora return of all payments made
to Spanish refugees since the death of Ferdinand the
Seventh in 1833; specifying whether any fresh names
had been added to the list since that period.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that the
pensions had not been granted by the Foreign-office..
That office had nothing to do with them. They were
paid through the Horse Guards, and the Noble Duke
the Commander-in-Chief and Lord Fitzroy Somerset
were the only persons who had anything to do with
them. With regard to Mr. Bulwer, he had nothing to
add to what he had said on a former occasion.
The Duke of WELLINGTON said these pensions
had been granted for services rendered to the British
army in Spain. The Foreign Office had nothing to do
with them, and he objected to the publication of the
names of the recipients.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY withdrew that
part of the motion relating to the names, and the mo-
' tion as amended was agreed to.
