A very long discussion ensued, in which all the
.former argumpots on this.subjM, were repented.
It was contended on the urn. hand by Mr. GILES,
Sir J. NEWPORT, Mr. W.u.satiFoacs, Lord A. HA-7,

at.the preent, Moment. the :pubhc necessity
and the public voice loudly demanded the strictest
economy, an end. ought to be put to a
,praalCe
Which tended to incrrase the burdens of the Siate,
witkout.contributing in any degree to its beriefit.
Ott the other band it was asset ted by Mr. Long,
Mr.‘l3. Browne, Mr. H: Addington, Mr. Matthew
Montagu, 'Mr. Horne Sumner, and the Chancellor
of the Exchequer, that although stria economy was'
highly, desirable, yet as it was indispensNble that:the',
Crown should possess the power of rewarding long
public• services, the Hon. mover ot the resolution
ought first 4o 'explain the means of, nth reward
Which he.intended to

to:the adoption it a better systetn, if his Hon. Friend,
had such a one. to) propose ; in which case, if he
wished time to mature his plan, he (Mr. CO would

Mr. BANKES would be happy to comply,With the
Wishes of the Committee, if he knew

were: It any Gentleman world suggest a plan

'SIR, Emerald, at Sea, Nfarch 23, tBto.

-
I have, the honour to acquaint you, that his Ma-
jesty's ship Errerald, ' yesterday evening,. at nine
o'clock, took the Belle Etoile, of Marseilles, a very
fine snip, letter 01: marque, carrying fifty-six men,
and eight guns, though pkvced fur twenty ; four.
days .ont from Bityonoe, Wand to the Isle of France,
with a cargo of wine, flour, oil, and various dthet
merchandize. The Belle Etude was discovered
from the inast-head of this ship at half past nitre A.
M. and the chase lasted (with a very strong breeze),
nearly twelve hours during the latter part of which
she threw four guns, myst of her water, and a part
of her provisions overboard. She is 350 tons bur-
then, only fifteen months old, had made but one
trip to Guadaloupe, and appears to sail in a most su-
perior style. - 1 am, &c.-.
