MR. IUSTICF. FOX.
Pendia! the Appeal Cause,
The Marquis of Mir itCORVI moved, that the
Order for their Lordships' going into a Committee
upon the Matters alledged against Mr. JUstiee Fox,
and the Papers and Documents respecting the same,
,on the 7th olFeb. be discharged. This the Noble
Marquis generally stated, he was principally induced
to do by the consideration of the great distance many
of the witnesses who were meant to be brought for.
" ward,. on the occasion, had necessarily to travel
sots from remote parts of Ireland, sod to whom
it wotild be impradicable to arrive in due time, in
reference to the day at first appointed for the Corn-
meneernent •of the investigation. Under this imn.
Isrestilon., and with a view
,to the circumstances of
the- case,- he should propose that a similar Order
be. made for the 181 h of February, which hi, Lord.
ship termed to think the earliest pranicable
This proposition meeting the concurrence of their'
Lordships, the Order, as above, was forthwith
discharged, and renewed for the 18th of next month.
On the Motion of the Noble Marquis, farther
Orders were made by the House :—the first, that a
Message he sent to the Commons, desiring the per.
mission of that 1-louse to, four of its Members,
namely, Sir. Titorans FsectssavroNe, Bart. the
Honourable Cra,LßßisiTH Low COLA, Sir JAMES
STEWART, Batt. and MERVIN ARCIIDAkE,
to attend their Lordships' Committee on the 18th
of February next. Also Orders for the attendance
Of divers Witnesses from the County of Fermanagh,
&c. in Ireland.
The Lo/ku CHANctt.t.na, notified to their
Lordships the circumstances of His Majety's
Judges having been ordered to attend, in reference
tq pending Appeal from Ireland, which princi.
pally respated a question of /Thalia, on is parti.
cular day ; and that, in case it should not be prac.
ticable to the Judges to attend that day, lie should
move to postpone the consideration of the Case to a
future day. The omits-of the parties in the cause
were nut mentioned by the Noble and Learno'
Lord,

MILITARY LEVIES.
Tire V.3ll`llr CAMDeN preStWeil, is pursuance
of a recent Address, of their Lordships, Accowits
of the number of Mtn raised under the Provisions
of the Additional Force Aft passed last Session.
The Accounts were ordered to lie on the table, and,
on the Motion of his Lordship, to be printed.
The Erre/ of DeIkNLIfY (in consequence pi
whose Motion the Accounts were, produced) pro.
fooled his intention, to bring forward a Motion upon
the subject on Monday. however, he conceived
same farther information Wds necessary to its due
elucidation ; he, therefore, meant to move for an
Account, specifying the Oudoers which were raised
under the Provisions of the AO, through the me.
' diurn of the Parish Olken, as distinct from ;hose
who were raised by the ordinary means of levy.—
..This specilleation, he thought, would tend to chew,
that some of the arguments formerly used by those
who opposed the Bill, were, at least, not without
tom: foundation. He wished to know the senti.
men's of the Noble Secretary, with respctt to the
prop 5.d Additional Accounts, which Would lalu.
once hho as to the time when he should make the
Earl of CAMDEN observed, he saw no
cb'ydion to the Accounts being produced, which

business of more ittipomince, as alluthzd to by his
niend, which their Lordship might nave

he had given notice for this day, relative to the

ARMY ESTIMATES.
The SECRETARY to WAR brought up the
Army Estimales, and gave notice, that on Mon.
day next he would bring that subjett before the
House. There were two Paper's, he said, that
were not among those presented, relative to the
Volunteers sad the , Barrack Department, but
they would be ready and presented before Mon.
day. He was aware, he said, that Monday had
been fixed on by an Hon. Gentleman on the other
side the House, for a Motion he intended to bring
forward ; but that lion. Gentleman, well aware of
the exigence and importance of the public service,
had agreed to postpone his Motion to some future
day, and had, at his request, acceded to him Mon.
day next, for the purpose he had mentioned.—Or.
dered mite on the table.
Mr. CALCRATT wished the Hon. Secretary to
inform him, whether he did not mean the Papers
now on the table, should he printed ?
The SECRETARY at WAR said, he wished the
House to have every pasible information on the
subjeft, that would not he produftive of delay; or
might prevent his bringing forward the business on
Monday. He thought Gentlemen might take ab.
strafts, which would be of equal use to them.
Mr. C ALC R AFT could by no means agree, that
Abst teas would be auficientirt Accounts of such itn.
potrance ; nor did he conceive the Members of that
House should be put to so much trouble. He
Should, therefore, think it his dtity to press for the
printing. The Papers were accordingly ordered to
be printed.
MIDDLESEX ELECTION.
Mr. CREEVEY brought up a Petition from cer.
thin Freeholders in the County. of Middlesex, scat.
ing, that at the late Eleftion for Middlesex there
were two Candidates, vit. Sir F. BURDETT, and G.
B. MAINWALING, Esq. That before the proceed.
ings were entered upon, the qualifications neces.
sary by Aft of Parliament, of a Landed Estate of
6001. a year, was positiVely demanded by the Agents
and Counsel of Sir F. BUR oETT, and the Freehol.
tiers in his Interest ; and that he, the said G. B.
MAINWARING, should verify the same on Oath,
according to the tenor of the said Aft.; that the said
G. B. Marttwastruc, in answer to this demand,
had tutted, that tile said Aft of Parliament did not
apply to him, and that he had no need to ?roduce
particular qualification, lie being the eldest son and
heir apparent of WM. MAINWARINO, Etc. a Gen.
tleman who had repeatedly been the Representative
for the said County of .Middlesex ; and that he,.
being doubtleaa possessed of such necessary qualifi.
cation as required, rendered it unnecessary for his
heir apparent to produce a particular qualification.
The Petitioners then proceed to state, that 11.,e said
G. B. MAINWARING is Out the eldest son of the
said WM. IVIAINWARINO, and therefore, the said
qualification, as such, can be of no avail; and that
the said G. li. 11441124 W ARANO, having no Estate of
his own, of the value of fool. a year, he was
not eligible to serve in Parliament, as Knight of
the said Shire. They pray, therefore, that .the
name of the said GEO. BoULTON Matsiwaitrsc,
who has been returned by the Sheriffs, as the sir.
ring Member, may be struck nut of the raid return,
and that the name of Sir F. BURDETT may be in.
tested in its stead, Tire Petition having been read
by the Clerk,
Mr. CREIVEY moved, that the same he taken
into consideration on the 18th of February next.
Lord H. PETTY said, he had, on a former night,
moved for an Account of all Exports to Spanilh
Ports ; and he had omitted to say, " to specify the
Ports, and the number of Export; to each." '
wished therefore to carat his Motion.
The SPEAKEK said, that in such cases the
usual anti regular way was to make a new Motion
on the subject.
LOrd 11. Per ry matted accordingly, " That there
be laid before the House an Account of all Exports
to the Potts of Spain, during the years iBo3 and
1804, specifying the wings of the Ports, and the
nurrlUer of Exports sent to each." Ordered.
INSOLVENT DEBTORS.

The Insolvent Debtors' Amending Bill was corn.
mitied—read a third time and passed; and returned
to the Lords by Mr. Ar.sxAtspatt.
Mr. ALIIXANDita brought up the Land and Malt
Bill, and the Hill for continuing the Duties on Pen.
sinne, Tobacco, Snuff, &c. which were severally
read a first, and ordered to be read a second time to.
morrow.
A Message from the Lords informed the House,
that their Lordships requested the House would
'give leave to Sir T. Featherstone, tart. the Ho.
nourabie Galbraith Lowry Cole, Sir James Stewart,
Barr. and Mervin Archdale, Esq• to attend the
Lords, in order to he examined as 'Witnesses before
the.Committec appointed to consider the matters
idledged against Mr. Justice Fox, on the 14th of
February next.

The fitstMotion, therefore, he had to make, was,
That thrre be laid before the House Copies or Extracts of
all Letteri from the Minister of Spain to the. Minister of His
Majesty, from the Ist of I lily, 11103, to the iath Sept. follow-
ing, and of all I nstruSions seat to hint by Ministers in con-
sequence thereof.
Mr. GREY ,aid, it appeared by the Correspond.
ence that Mr. Frere had made a very strung re.
monstrance against the Measures of the Spanish
Government, in facilitating the passage of n con.
siderable hotly of Mariners and Artillerymen de.
stined to reinforce the French Fleet at Ferrol ; to
this Note there was no answer in the Correspond.
ence. He supposed, however, some notice must
have been taken of it, and if them had, be thought,
the House should be in possession of it. His next
Motion, ,therefore, would he,
That there be laid before the House Copies or Extraas of
any Answer to Mr. Frerc's Note of the yth September, tso3.
His third Motion, he said, was,
That there be laid before the House Copies or Extra* of
all Dispatches trout the tath of September to the 30111 of De.
ember 0103, respecting the advances of money by the Spanish
Government to France.
His next Motion was,
That there be laid before the House a Copy or Extras of
the Explanation referred to in Lord I lawkesbury's Dispatch
of the aist.of lanuary £BO4, as to pecuniary advances made
by Spain to France, and the instructions sent in consequence
thereof.
His next Motion was,
That there be laid before the House a Copy or It xtraet of
any Convention, Compet, or A.areerstent, made between
His Maksty's Minister and the Minister of Spain, retatiVe
•to the eutrality to be observed by that Power.
Mr. GitttY then mentioned that there was ano.
ther long chasm in the Correspondence between
Lord Hawkesbury and Mr. Frere, and that no die.
patches appeared therein from the 31st Jan. 1804,
to the zist of May following, the day on which
his Lordship went nut. of office. There were
also several intervals in Lard Harrowby's Correa.
pondence, in which not a single dispatch appeared
from the zzd of May to the' zgth of September ;
and if, during that time, any had aaually wised,
they ought undoubtedly to be laid before the House,
on a subject of this importance. His next Motion
would therefore be,

There were a variety of other Papers, which he
thought necessary to be produced, and 'his next
Motion would be—
That there be laid before the Hove Copies or Extraels of
all Official Notes written by.the Spanish Minister to the
Minister of His Majesty, relative to any disputes with Spain,
from the folntnencernept of the War with France.
His next Motion was—
That there be laid before the House a Copy or Extrad of a
Letter froth Admiral Cochrane to the Admiralty, relative to
the Armaments carrying on in the Port of Ferrol.
Also,, Copies of all Letters front Admiral Cochrane, re.
speeling the, arming of the Spanish Ships, from Sept. at to
to, 1844.
lie then moved.
That there be laid before the House an Account of the Pro.
visions, Naval Mores, Asc. furnished by the Spanish Govern-
ment to the :;tieliotcon;; of Sir Edward Pellewand Admiral

The C HANG b,LLti R. of the EXC. V.. 73 said,
he should he extremely tins born tiie House
and the Peblic should be in cotnelett p ,session of
every ,possible delete of tniormation that, consist.
entiy with the safety of the public service, could be
given on a subject of so highly interesting and ins.
plrtant a nature as that to which these Papers re.
Wed. He was, therefore, atter the communication
which had passed between the Him. Gentleman who
moved fur them and hititself, and from the cursory
view he had been able to give the motions shewn
to him, since he came into the House, extremely
willing that the substance of the information con.
lathed in the several Papers moved for, as had ac.
tually been received, should be given. But, he
said, among so great a variety, it was impossible
fur him to say, that sucii information could be given
in the. regular' way in which they were mentioned
in the motions.
Mr. GRAY expressed himself perfealy satisfied
with having the substance of the information.
The question on the first motion was 'then put
and agreed to.
The SPEAKER rhen proceeded to read the se.
vend motions as they succeeded each other, ant
put the question on each. Whet he came to that
which mentioned '' copy or extract of any Con.
ventiiaii,Compatt, or Agreement, topetting the Neu.
trality of Spain ;" • -
The CIIASCELLOg of the
rose, and said, he was very willing the 5111)41,...ce oh
every Paper, mentioned in the aevetat Muti Ins,
that was now or had ever been in existence, should
be laid before the House ; but, with twat to the
present Motion, lie mutt beg leave to assure the
House, that, however strange it might appear, yet
the fan was so, that there hall never been any
writing or instrument which could bear the alqA.,
lation of Convent ion,Compatt, Note, or Agreement,
entered into between the two Parties. flow it
had happened he could not pretend to say. He
supposed it might be, that the Spanish Ambassador
might have used that word in reference to what was
contained on that suhjeEt in Lord FlAwszataunr's
Letter ; and our Charge.d'Affitires had, through in.
Overtence, used the same term.
Mr. FOX said, he had no doubt but that such a
thing might happen as that Mr. Frere, or arty other
person, might, through inadvertency, use a term just
before spoken by another, if he thought it avail
appicable to the subject ; hut he could not conceive
how any one couhl, through inadvertence, use such
a term, when speaking on a subjedt to which neither
Note, Agreement, Curnpaa, or Convention, was at
all to he applied.

AinuctL'

Mr. 'PDX thought a great deal ,of rtl)13nOli"
ought to be given on this subjea, mote than who.
h4d yet appeared.
Mr. GREY said, it was the more extraordinary
that this term should have been used so often, when
there was no such thing as a Convention respetting
Neutrality. He then read a passage from one of
Mr. Frefe3 letters, in which he expressly. says,
" The Ships shall be put on the same footing as
they were by the Convention with England."
The several, other Motions wore Chu' put and
agreed to.
Mr. GREY said, that, as the Right Hon. Gen-
tleman had agreed to the produttion of these Par".
it would be necessary he should name some other
day for taking the subjeEt into consideration ; as
they could scarcely be produced and printed so as
that the discussion should come on as was now fixed`
for Thursday.
the CHANCELLOR of thr EXCHEQUER
agreised with the Hon. Gentleman, that some day
after Thursday must be named for the discussion,
as the Papers could scarcely be ready before that
day. It could not, therefore, he thought come °I
this week ; he should, theretore, propose Wednes-
day or Thursday in the next week—he thought?
Thursday; but, SS a Right Hun. Gentleman oPP°'
site (Mr. WINDHAM) had already given up Monday
next, he begged he would say on what day after
Thursday, he would bring forward his Motion.
The Order of the Day itir bringing on the hilo•
tion on the Spanish Papers on Thuraday 'nest, wol
'then read and discharged, and a new one matte for

The Committees of Supply and Ways and sans
were then postponed to Friday, and the Nous°
adjourned.
