HOUSE OF PEERS.
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1.
The LOAD CHANCELLOR did not take his seat
on the Woolsack until neatly hall-past four o'clock,
and immediately after prayers were read,
THE REGENCY PILL
Was brought up 110113 the Commons by Mr.
LONG, and other Memberi, with a Message, stating
that-the Commons had agreed to the Amendments
. made to the Bill by their Lordships. The Bill was
then laid upon the table.
After some time had elapsed, and the attendance
become pretty numerous,
The Earl of LIVERPOOL rose, and observed that
thete was no feces:dent in the proceedings of the
termer occasion which applied to the fen-mining
proceeding, which the two Houses had to ins itute,
respeCting the business to which the
•Bill then on
the table referred. Linder those circumstances ,it
was deemed the preferable way to lay on the
table at the House a Commission that had been
prepared inasignifyng the assent to the Regency
Bill, mid to width it was proposed ~übsequentiv to
affix the Great Seal. By this ereeeeding, Noble
Lords would have an opportunity of seeing the na-
ture and import
.of the Commisbion or instrument,
previously to their considering of a Resoldtion, on
the part of that ,Hoese, fur authorising the Lord
Chancellor to effix the Great Seal thereto.—
What he proposed was, that the House should
meet again to-morrow, when, in case no pro-
traded discussion or stone; objection should bp
made. with respect to the Commission, he sheuld
move Attic Lordships . to adopt a Resolution
such as he had alluded to, tas it was held the
Resolution voted by both House not long since,
agreeably to the precedent on the former ()cert.
sioo, went only to autherise the tot mal opening of
Parliament.
A short Conversation.' here ensued, in which the
Earl of Derby and the Noble Secretary of State
were the principal speakers.
The Earl of ROMAN said a few words in a low
tone of voice acruss the table, the purport of which
eta could nor distinaly (-016.0.
The Earl of Dena said, her did not now mean to •
toke.up their Lordships'. time e ith any detajled oh-
stavations; but he was at opinion, much as he de-
precated an further delays, in additiun to those
which already tekee.place, that the proceedings pro-
posed by the NuUte Secretary of State, nitrites! the
most serious attention of the kieuse., -In saying this,
lie wished to have it understood, that his semi-
uterus. respecting the whole 'omen) and orea,ures
pursued by Ministers on this occasion were by nu
means changed. He retained all his hostility to
these measures, as well as those• which obtained in
1788 and. 1789, which een3titoted,their much.
vauvred precedents, , as he had more than mite ex-
pressed. With respect to the present case, he did
not think simply laying the COMIIIiiiSiUn 'on the
table, enough; very few of the Luids could peruse
it, and such a step would bUt a little way to-
wards informing their Luniships. He thought the
printing it would nut cause any delay, and thet pro•
ceedii.g would hbvidte his objettioh, he also
thought the Noble Secretary of State was not both.'
tient)), explicit, when he said if no discus ion
should arise to-morrow, he would propose the
con-
sideration of the Reaolutioti to-morrow ; but in cast,.
it did, he should defer that step till Mundy. That
would be an additional serious delay, a principle
which pi evaded in this, as Vieli as in all their tor-
riser proceedings; they might have been touch
far-
ttier advanced in the proceeding,, they might have
been brought forward 0100. The Noble Etat also
expressed his opinion that the liuuse should be
sulumoned on the occasion.
The. Earl of LIVRRPOOL in reply to what had
fallen from the last speaker, obsetvee, that the
charge of delay or procrastination in this case by no
means applied, as it was impossible they could know
previously whether or not the House of 'COminons
would concur in the Amendments made by their
Lordships to the Bill ; that concurrence was not re-
golaily made knowu to them until this evening.--
With iesped to toe printing of the Commistiou, as
suggested by the Noble Earl, he observed, that
document of the kind Was ever printed, and
the purpows alluded to would be us .veil answered
by the Commission lying on the table fur the
inspecAipu of Vuble Lords. As to what had beets
said of Isis speaking more explicitly resin:Cling the
line of proceeding be 'Maui to adopt to-tourroW•
evening, it was evidently what he could not do,
as he could not possibly be certain of the, nature
line of the obieetioes, if any, that might be arged,
and on which the length, .or nature of the discus-
,Sion, which might take piece, would evidently de-
pend.
Lord Eeterinoandon did tot seem to think any
blame, ou tne snore of delay, impetable to the
Noble Eart in the present instance) but the circum7
cattier of delay being what he.highly deprecated en-
der the present circumstances, he must say, he did
riot see why the proceeding mentioned by the. Noble
beeraaty of State, unless that degas of protracted
stud hostile di.cossare which wooed lead to a (JR
•ion took place, Should not be- brought forward to-,
UsOfrOW, instead of Monday.
The ,'..Eark of Li . 101001, spoke in explanati..o, as
didithe Earl of Deka v , alter v. hich, the document
i,x question was ordered to tie ou
.theTable,' and the
House adjourned till to-morrow.

This morning we receive:l Cadiz Papers to the
6th ult. Their contents will be found in our sub-
'sequftnt columns.

Mr. WHITBREAD last night called the attention of
the House of Commons to 'a circumstance which,
he said, had come to his knowledge, viz. that two
warrants, with the Sign Manual, and
,dated since
the commencement of his MaJesTv's illness, had
been Presented at the Exchequer. Mr. pERCEVAL
gave the rno,t satisfaCtory explanation upon the sub-
jeEt ; he stated, that it was usual for warrants to be
sent to Windsor for the Sign Manual, leaving blanks
for the dale, and that the date was inserted when
the warrants were sent to the Exchequer. Mr•
Wurram RAD, however, gave notice that he should
make a motion upon the subjea next week.

'There are two points M which• we conceive that
the Opposition will be grieVous/y disappointed when
the Prince of WALes is-vested with the awful re.
sponsdaility attached to the chevalier of Regent,
They fondly hope that his Royal Highness will im-
mediately dismiss, those prudent Counsellors who
were chosen by his venerable Father, and that he;
will give the full weight of his authority to the fur-
therance of whit has been etroneously styled Ca-
tholic EmancipstioiL But we have too high a con-
fidence in the good sense and filial affection of his
Royal Highness, to suppose that either of these
crews can possibly take place. The present
Mini,try have by their wisdom and firmness sup,
portt.d the full rights and privileges of the Kingly
and maintained the genuine principles of
the Constitution. The :Prince is arrived at that
time of. lite when he his all the lights of ex.
perience to assist his good Bernie, and be will relied
that if he were precisely in the state of his Royal.
Father, he would on his recovery be gratified in
finding that the persons whom be had placed in
the highest 'offices` of the State, had not abandon.
ei their duty on despicable views of a temporiz.
la; policy, but had shewn a sacred' regard for
the Royal Fun Lions, the purity of the Consti-
tthion, and the welfare of the people. Such
sentiments most occur to the Prime of WALBS, and
such sentiments we
.doubt not will vide -and ani-

mate his conduct. As to the Catholic' Question, the
views and determinations of his MAJSSTY are
well known, that It would be a gross outrage on the
Prince of WALEs to suppose for (;moment that he
could in that totipect give his :sanction to any men.
sure which, upon so important a subject, would he
in opposition to his Royal Father's rooted sense of
duty to our happy Establisinnynt in 'Church and
State. Eat the people at large have an ad-
ditional ground of confidence in his Royal fligh-
newt, derived from the answer which he gave
to 'the' Address of both Housed, requesting him to
assume the character 'of Regent, for he graciously
intimated his regret that he " not have been
allowed the opportunity of inanifes\ing" that his
conduct would have been conformable to the re-
strictions which the wisdcfm of Parliiment had
thought proper to devise. Hence then, if his Royal
Highness would have'aclecl upon resKctions which
the wisdom of i'atliainent *Med necessary, it
must naturally be preseined tbat he will adhere in-
violably to the 'feelings and ileterininatiuns, of his
august Father, in a Matter of Vital importanee to the
State, and in which his MAJESTY was goreined by a
conscientious regard to the 'obligations of hit Co-
ronation '04114 and• his most go!etnn conviction of
what was essential for the safety and preserVition of
that glorious system which our ance:ors bequeath-
ed, and which renders us at this inomeOlhappy

• Dispatches have been received froti Mexico to
the 20th of November. Gen. VENEGAS, who had
been sent out to suppress the disturbances in that
Colony, is , said to have completely stacreeded
objet, after .yariont engagements with the inst,r-
gents. When tranquility wa4 restored, lie caused
several•Preclam itions. to be published, ordering Ya.

threatening those wit h,punishment who-should act
'against the existing laws.

On Saturday release last, the day before the rele of
the British prisoners, a most gallant Oral. was wit-
nessed in the roads of Dunkirk. A British brig of
war, dashing in close to the pier. and under the
French batteries, cut ottt flour thence a French
transport laden with na:al stor,:s, bound from Bou-
logne to
,Flushing. The eoterprize uai exectutql
with go rutich skill and wittily, that the prize was
gone' before the batteries could he broudtt to bear
upon the brig with effea. The same brig hailed the
cartel on her pairsage,, toltuwire after their friends
at Dunkirk, and "wrh it the folks of that town
thought of the prank that had bt4o played-them the
other day ?"
'On Wednesday the Dales of Yost It and CAM.
BRIDGE, with a numerous party of .personages of
distinaion, enjoyed the sport of shooting in' the
neighbourhood of Outlands, where they were ex-
tremely kiritunate in their Shots;--they killed no
less than forty hares. and twenty cock pheasants.—
After enjoying the sports of the field for several
hours, they retired to the Mansion house of the
Duke of Yoltic, where they were sumptuously en-
tertained.

Letters rec-ived from an Officer of onr advanced.

dated as late ds the 14th ult. Mutual exchanges of
compliments pass.betWeen the advanced centinels,

strongly reported in the British camp that the French
army before Cadiz had raised the siege, and were
on their march to join MASSENA, and that tire Bri-
tish garrison at Cadiz were preparing to embark to
join Lord WELLINGTON in Portugal.
