Mr. WHARTON brought up the Report of the

the Amendments be read a firs. time,
Mr. WHI I'BREAD said, he would, on the Re.
Ipott being brought up on the Vo.e If Credit Bill, put
a few questions to the Right Honourable Secretary
MMr. Canning), and subn itt:d to the courtesy of
inisters to give him an weasel-. He would not ad.
vett to the situation of Spain. as that subject had been
already brought before the House by his Right Ho.
Pourable Friend (Mr. Sherid in). The present, he
observed, had been a very laboriens lesion' several
Committees were appointed, and though be objected
to the measure adopted in consequence cf Report
oldie Committee on West India Affairs, yet, as it
was sanctioned by the vote of .he House, he erred it
might be conducive to the relef that was expectedrea
A Committee also sat on the efFa'rs of the East India
Company, and the country exeev.ed that the account
between the Public and the Company was now finally
closed. It was his intention ear:y in the next session,
to call the attention of the House to the Report cf
the tottery Committee, as it contained facts of a na.
ture so heinous and disgraceful, that he was con-
vinced his Majesty's Ministers could nct oetemplete
them without producing a dee imeressioa, The
Committee of Finance had also many laborious sit.
tinge, and it appeared from what the Chairman
stated on a former night, that they were not likely to
make any Report in the present session. He could
not say whether this disappointment to the public
arose from the construction of the Committee, that
occasioned a collision among the Members, which
rendered their labours useless to the public or not, bet
he trussed that the mystery in which their differences
were involved, would be disclosed early in the next sea
sion. With respect to Ireland, a calm had ensued,
after the irritations that prevailed in that count 7,
-notwithstanding the disapeeintment of the people m
having the prayers of their petitions tejected. He
hoped that calm was a presage to future tranquillity,.
which he trusted would have a due effeet bereaficron
the feelings of Pa: li intent. He would ask the Right
Honourable Gentleman whether or not the Orders an
Cbuncil priehiced the beneficial effects on the enemy,
with respect to the return of peace, that were antici-
pated by Ministers, or whether they were not in a
great measure done away by the licences granted by
Government ? These were questions, he knew, which
depended on the courtesy of the Right Honourable
Gentleman and his colleagues to answer, but he teli
them for the convenience of the House, though he
might, if he thought fit, make a motion on each of
them. The disposition to tumult which was more-
fested in the neighboorhoOd of Manchester, was a sub.
jet t of regret, but he hoped thet it would be attributed,
'o the real cause, the distress of the manufacturers,
sad that they who were found offending would expe-
rience lenity, and nut be treated as if they were wits
ate.l by any thing of a pelitecat netute, or had Rey le-
ference whatever to party consideration.' With re.
spect to America, he was apprehensite that Ministers
were not as successful as they expected, as the Con.
'grew was dissolved, and the embargo still continued,
An expedition was sent out to the Bake near two
months since, which, . according to the last accounts,
still continued in a state of inactivity ; another ape.
dition had been sent out, and he hoped the remit:
would ba glbrious, it the object Was a good one. 1,1 e•
wished also to know the cause of the arteral of Sir
John Moore from Sicily, which, if he wage-1014y be
Pinned, waste& expected by his Majesty's Moieties.
He would also ask if Government had succeeded .
its commercial relations with Sweden ? He observed,
that one 29th' of last April be proposed a reseluuce4
to the se, that it would not be disgraceful to piee
pose to France a negotiation for peace ; he was gill of
the same opiniene and he hoped that during the re-
cess Ministers would avail themselves of any oppor-
tunity that may occur to produce the blessings of
tranquillity.
Mr. Secretary CANNING said, the Hoe. Gentle-
man had no occasion to apologise to the House for
what he had said. He admired the candour of the
Hon. Gentleman in leaving every thing to his Majes-
ty's Ministers, and he should begin in the first in-
etance, by noticing the conclusion cf his speech rela-
tive to Sweden. lie said, that the armament had 4een
sent to co-operate with our ally upon certain plans
projected by him, and that since the expedition had
arrived at Gottenburgh, several considerable changes
had taken place in the military arrangements of Swee
den, for which no blame could attach to Great Bre.
tarn ; on the contrary, we were to be applauded for
our promptitude in sending out such an armament as
might be effectual, at the moment of necessity. With
respect to the arrival of General Moore, he would ob-
set ye, that the force under his command returned
certainly to Gebraltp ; as it was thought last year,
that important operations would have taken place
there. Sir John Moore arrived two days before ail
