LEEDS, FEBRUARY i 4, am

WE whofe N;me.s are underwritten, conrariing
entirely in a define for Peace, with the Merchants .4
Manufacturers who met at the Mixed cloth-Hall, in LeM4,
on the ilith day of January left, but disfenting trim them in our
ideas of the propriety of the Meafures thm adopted, and on
which Modules fignatures to a Peti.lon bare ken obtained I*
this town and neighLourbood, eleftre an make known the rel.
tons of our difeam

Firft, We conceive that the pubtfhing oat kart and di:trod-go
to our enemies has a dircet tendency to incite than to prolong
;he War, or to demand fi.ch (mans of Peace as arc in:144034cl

Second, We cannot concur Man unqualfied Petstion P r Pea..a.
(even fuppc.fulg hi. blajuily able to obtain i;) becaufe the Fa.acit.
In ever/ change of their fluctuating Govianmeet, have hitherto
refuini repeated folicitatiosi. from his Majeity, to Hate on what
term. the, are willing to make Peace; a l'entico therefore toli
filch a Pan as our enemies may now be willing to snake, mat
be to a* for what week' deltroy our Commie, ce anti maul;
our Country.
Third, We cannot confifteatly with truth adopt any %karma
which appear to us to 'saint:me that his itlaj4.ll.y is rut ‘!ifpofetli
to procure, as foon as poffiblc, a fecurc Prase, finee he not only
has offered (what we coneei 7C to be) equitable ti.rrn. of woo/
modation, but has even colifented to a Naval Arioillice, as
prelude to a general Peace; a ciceumflanee never before COO*
ceded, until a Negotiation bad adually reamenced, o Preli.
minaries of Peace had been Pined!

Fourth, We confider the Mcafuresadoote Cl dat the atb•itals
to have been peculiarly ill-timed, when the Northers Powers
are attempting by a breach of the law of nations, and of their
treaties with this kingdom, to &limy the great bulwark of our
defence, (under DiviNe PRUVIDENcc) the fuperiority of ou:
Navy; without which neither our Comm:roe, nor oar inda
rendenpe as &Nation, can be prefcrvgd.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
1) firing the difcuflion refpeaing the Call of the
Houk (hangers of courfe were not admitted, hut
we have been informed that nearly forty Members
tiolc the oaths and their feats.—kfoon after four
o'clock,
General GASCOIGh fAid,6o4l the Call might
riot have produced the attendan,e altogether that
ritht have be..n hoped from it, yet the effeel, he
conceived, muff be fuch as to fatisfy thole: who
were in the habit of thinking Calls ineffeCtual, that
it bad been attended with fome advantage. He
then moved, that the Order of the Day, that the
lionise be called over, be :cad ; and again moved,
that the Houle be now called over. .

Mr. PITT Paid, though not of opinion generally
that Calls of the Houfe were of effeft, as they could
not compel Members to (lay longer than the Call
of the name, yet he did mean to fay that eircum-
fiances might not (hew it to be detirable :—the
cirrumilances of the times, generally fpeaking,
were important, and others of a higher and more
fe7inits importance might occur, though he enter-
tained the molt fanguine hope that what he allud-
ed to would not require the interference of Parlia-
srient. He fhould thercfmc move, that the Iloufe
be called over this day fortnight.
Mr. Gasy then moved in addition,that no Mem-
ber leave town without permiflion obtained from
the Houle.
Two reisarate motions wcre made, that Mr. El.
lifoo and Mr. Fydell have leave to attend the AP
fins, which were carried in the affirmative.

taker: fuch a hectic'. fee retirement, to refufe fuch
a motion.
Mr. Pitt, Mr. Addin7ton, Mr. For, General
Tacleton, and Mr. 'err- e. divided together.
Mr. PIT r roff. to liT;;;utt to Mr. Jou.s the pro-

priety of potting rfff his propofed motion refpeCt-
mg the Conven!ton of El Arifch. This he did on
the fame principles as had induced Tome other Gen-
tlemen to delay other motions of a public nature.
Mr. JONES profeifed his readinefs to comply with
this requeft, bat hoi.ed that the Right Honoura-
ble Gentleman would name a day when the mo-
tion could be taken into confideration. He was
willing to agree to any delay which might be for
the conveniency of public bufinefs, but he was re-
folved not to lcfe fight of his objeft.
Mr. PITT mentioned the firfl Thurfday after the
Call, and Mr. Jones acceding to this, the motion
now Rands for that day.
The Marine Force Bill, and the Mutiny Bill,
were each read a fecond time, and committed for
