The House then iesolved into.st Committee.

the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUEIt
then said, it must be in the recollection of ever/
Gentleman present, that the sum of one million siX
hundred thousand pounds had been voted for the
service of the Army, for one. Year ;—first there had
bren six hundred thousand pounds voted ; and died,
one million. At that time he had distinetly stated/
that the before.mentioned slim would not be sufaei.
ent, and as CirCUlTlstanCes had since occurred, which
rendered it highly necessary to increase the sum, he
begged leave to move, that one million thirty.two
thousand one hundred and fifty pounds be granted
to His Majesty, which had noc been provided for by
Parliament.

Mr. FULLER said, upon the face of the stated
rhents given by the Right ,Hon. Gentleman (die,
CHANCELLOIt of the ExOttrovEit), it appeared
perfedly just ; yet he thought it proper to observe,. •
that every care ought to he taken to discover,' and .1
prevent, any false demand, that might be made on
Government, since the conclusion of the War.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
ohserved, that it had been the business of Govern
ment to see that every Estimate was pettedly, RC'
curate, and that, every Bill was minutely exartined
by Officers appointed for that purpose, before
they were paid ; •and therefore no fraud could Po-
sibly be committed on Government.
Mr. PHNSTONE said, he wished to be ftrn"
formed, with respea to the expenditure r)( fives
thousand pounds, for cloathing the Troops in the
Island of Ceylon, he having been in that Country,
and knowing something of the afftirs of India.;
ht
ever understood that the East India Company fur.
nished the Troops of Ceylon at their own expence.
He therefore wished us have the (tinter explained.
Mr. reINS 17TART rose, and said, that the
East India Company always send out cluarhing ler
their Troops. When Ceylon becarrie the property,
of this Government, the Crown thought it their
duty to find the Troops of Ceylon with cloatht,
which article they were much in want
Chkeral TAR ETON' said, as the differences bee
tween the two, Countries had ceased, and as tie
Empire was consolidated, he hoped that the Army
of the two Countries would in future be placed on
similar establishments.
The Report .was ordered to be received to-
morrow.
Sir JOHN ,WROrTES LEY wished to Icrotv
what was to be done with the Petition respeding
the Malt Duty. He observed, that if His Majes.
ty's Niini,ters did not bring the Petitions forward,
'he should certainly underlak; that task at a fit;
period,

that your Loyal r...:itizens of London, are sensibly .alive to,
the mighty Mischief which threitned them,' and lint their
afkttionate Attachment and' ardent Zeal will ever, if pos-
sible, strengthen u► proportion to any Danger, to which your
Seared Person may be exposed.
" We trust, however, that the firm and decided execution
of the LaWs upon the unnatural Projectors of so foul a Deed,
'will, while it warns the Traitor of his Punishment, con-
vince the Loyal of the Protection. our fevered Constitution
aftbrds, and ellbetually secure your Majesty and the United
Kingdom, over which the GOCKIIICSS and .Mercy cf-Provi—
dencc has placed and preserved you, from any such guilty
Attempts in future, to disturb the General Tranquillity.
" Long may the Almighty guard the Throtieut this Realm
from the Assaults of Violence, and the insidious Attacks• of
Domestic Treason, and long may your Majesty in your Per.
son and Family, enjoy that Quiet andllappiness in goVern-
ing, which arc so iintimately interwoven with the dearest
posSessions of the free and happy -People whir obey.
