IMPERI4L PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF PEERS,

MONDAY, MARCH I.

Counsel were heard at.some length relative to
the Scotch Appeal, Walker v. Allan, after which
their Lordships deferred the farther hearing till to-
morrow.
Lori HOBART observed, that having been in
some degree misrepresented in the Public Prints,
with respell to the answer given by him to a ques-
tion from a Noble Earl on a former night, and
which being repeated in a Paper of this day, he was
anxious to have what he really did say on that oc-
casion tightly understood. . The Noble Earl whom
he alludtd to, had, he understood, expressed a
hope that the recent transaaions in the Carnatic
might undergo a serious•investigation, and at the
sane time his wish to know, whether what had
been done relative to the/ Son of the Nabob of Ar-
cot, was or was not considered by Ministers as an
infringement of two solemn Treaties ? To this ques-
tion he was supposed to have replied, that Mini-
sters did not consider those Treaties to have:been in-
fringed. However, he had not given any such an-
swer, but said, that it was the intention of Go-
vernment to bring the subjeft forward, and that the
question, whether those Treaties had or had not.
been infringed, would render a serious discussion
of the subjeti more necessary. He thought this.
explanation proper, in the view from preventing
the Public being misled by any thing which was
supposed to have fallen from him.

The Bills on the Table were forwarded in their
respedive stages, and some routine business dis.
posed of, after which an adjournment took place.
