Ina Committee of Privileges the claims of the
Earl of Lisbtirne and the MarqueSs of Donnegal

Lord CALTHORPE presented a Petition in fa-
vour of the Cruelty to AniMals Prevention Bill'.
The following Bills were severally. read the
third time :—The Irish Silk Bounties Bill, the
Hop Exportation Drawback Bill; the Isle of Man
Trade Bill, and the Irish Customs. Collection Bill.
The -following Bills passed through the Com-
mittees :—The Assessed Taxes Bill, the Audit of
Accounts Bill, and the Husbandry Horses Bill.

On the Order of the Day for the House reso4y-
og itself into a Committee on the Duke of Cla-
rence's Annuity Bill being read,
The Earl of LAUDERDALE said, that it was
neither his intention to oppose the 13111, nor to
disapprove of the principle upon which the arrears
of 6,0001. a year were granted to his Royal High-
ness. On the contrary, he was of opinion that
Parliament had done itself great honour by
granting the arrears, as it proved that they had
acted upon principle. The other House of Parlia-
ment had determined, that on the marriage of a
younger son of the King, a grant of 6,0001. a year
was necessary to support the dignity which.
he ought to maintain. In consistency with
that principle .they had granted the arrears.
The object with which he had risen was to re-
mind their Lordships of the situation of one mem-
ber of the Royal Family, he alluded to the
Duke of Cumberland, who had been treated i 0
a manner which he did not hesitate to call un-
fair. When questions of this nature came before
him, he did not feel himself authorised to ask
his own feelings whether the Prince was a fa"
vourite or not. All he had to do was to consider
whether the sum required was necessary. If it
was once to be admitted as a just ground in the
consideration of such cases, whether the Prince
was a favourite or not, exorbitant provisions -
might be sometimes made above the demands Of
the occasion. After what had passed in the
course of the, last Session, he was sure that their
Lordships would agree with him in the principle
he had laid down. He would admit, that the
moment the proceedings were dropt against the
Queen, she was to be regarded as an innocent
woman ; but he -would appeal to them whether:
after the• investigatiOn which had taken place/
they had granted her an allowance upon awl
other principle than that it was necessary to sup'
port her rank in the country ? With regard to the
low, mean, and slanderous insinuations against
the Duke of Cumberland, all that he wished was,
that they should be. put in a tangible shape, in
which they could he met. The exemplary man-
ner in which the Duke and Duchess had con-
ducted themselves in this country.was such as t°f,
recommend them ; and for .all those. reasons,
Ministers did not think proper,
.though he ce,ir.
thinly thought they would, to. propose an -A-'1;
dress on the subject, after the temporary warmth
excited by long debate had subsided, he should
feel himself at liberty to propose an Address,
founded upon the principle for which he ha
contended.
The Earl of LIMERICK sail .that he concurred
in the sentiments which had fallen froth his 174'
