quoted by the Noble Lord, front the Commis-
sioners of Naval Revision (whose lahoers he de-
scribed to, have been in constant opposition to
thoSe of the Board which had been previously
eitablished), which set forth, that it Was unjust
thet those who devoted their whole time to the
service of the Public, as well in peace as in war,
should have their salaries reduced on the restora-
tion peace, when they could not turn their at-
teetiou to utter ofessional pursuits. This argil-

he should have thought some sleep might have
been got by the Stcretaries. ILe had now to offer
some: observati.ms on the conduct of the Lords
