PARLIAMANTARr PROCEEDJAGS.

Honk, he would not withlfanding claim the privilege
of alluding to, at it contained matter of public in-
terest ; he meant that part addreffed to the Com-
mons, in which it was recommended to them to re-
vive and profecute l'A•itius plans of enquiry. This
gracious reeommendati n from the. Throne, he was
perfotaded, wontd diffofe general farisfaCtion, arid
prove to the people, that t was intended that what'
they bellowed liberally %seta be economically expels
ded. His Lordfhip, after what he had lively fern and
heard, could not hope for unanimity. on the pretest
DecaAon, but he trolled that the Addrefs wonld be
carried by Inch a majority as wonld ben expects the
'fink of that Hook, of his Moiety's unerring difcre-
tion, and of his ready inclination to exercife the
prerogatives with which the Connitution had impelled
him, for the interests and happinefs of his people.
His Lordfliip concluded with reading and moving
the Addrefs.
Lord RDLLE role for the pnrpore of feconding
the Addrefs. The real tank of the difnaiffal of the
late Miniary was a point which had been Cs frequent.
ly difctiffed in that Houle that he thould not advert
to it at prefent. It was a Cubic& indeed which it
would be molt impleacant fur him to recur to. He
could nut but lament that an endeavour told ever ,
have'been made to embitter the latter days of our
molt gracious Sovereign', lite. His Majeny,\ir was
well known, had declared, Rimini fince his accelEnn
to the throne, that there were certain propofitints
which he regarded as dire& violations of the Coro-
nation Oath, and to which he could never be brought
to trident ; and yet, by a fingular fatuity and per. ,
verfron of inteheel, it was precifely upon one of thufe
points of filch peculiar delicacy that the late Mini-1
Hers thought proper to pies his Majelly. The con•
fequence was, that they 1011, and defer welly he wonld
fay, his confi fence, and were difmitfed from his ter
vice. The Noble Earl who (poke fall had taken
loch an able view of the general fithjed of the Speech,
that he would trefpafs run longer up, n their Lord-
(hips' time, than to fay he felt the highest latisfaftion
in fecnnding the Addrefs.
The FAA of FOR rESCUE role for the purports
of moving an amendment. He lamented the need.-
firy under which he found himfelt, of oppofing what
was too generally contictered as an aft of courtefy
towards the S.svereign ; hut when he refiracd upon
the means by which the prefent Administration came
into power, it was impcsGible fur him to concur in ap-
proving their meafines. He would appeal to every
man concerned with the proceedings of Parliament,
whether there was ever a period in which In much
public blifinels was before it ; and yet it was at Inch
a time, when fir much of the interest and property
of the country soli at flake, that Miniliers thought
fit to advite hi, Mikity to dilTolve the Parliament.—
He would appeal to the great Conflitutional Lawyer
on the Woolfack, whether this was not Petting at
nought the ufitges and regulations of Parliament ?
He could not avoid bringing back to their Lordfh:pa'
recolleetion the folenin mockery by which the Judges
of Scotland were brought forward ; of the determi-
nation that was taken to have questions peopled to
them, at the very time it was refolved the Bar of
the H..tife mould be doled against them. The difro•
!titian of the late Parliament he could not but confi-
der as a ftrong and arbitrary oreafure ; and, viewing
it in that light, he felt it to be his duty to exprefs hi,
dilapprobation of it. With refpeft to the prefent
Ministers, they were the very men who had before
thrown up the reins of Government in delpair. He
knew of no acceffion ti.ey had obtained, except that
of tran,ferting a Gentleman who Lad gained confi
derable eminence in his own protellion, to a lituation
for which he was neither qualified by It tidy or experi-
ence. He would, however, give them the praife of
indutlry ; that they were certainly entitled tn. They
had been indefatigable in their exertions to raife up
and hunt ont Addreffes. They recruited every where,
among the High Church and the Low Church ; in
the Meeting bottle, and in the Synagogue. As far
as depended upon them, they left nothing untried to
revive the Reties of 1780. Of late years, their Lord-
(bilis had heard much of coalitions, and therefore it
was a fubjeCt upon which he would not trouble them
at any length. He could not, however, neglee this
opportunity of laying, that there were certain points
which rendered ii totally impoflible to make anti cm.
poonife with the perfons who slow had the Govern-
ment in their hands. It was the pride of his life that
through the greater part of his political caulk, he
had been clofely conneCted with hiN Noble Relative,
who was lately at the head ut hi. Majesty's councils;
but, much as he esteemed his Noble Friend, lie would
forfeit all claim to bis sinfideoce and timpott, if he
could form an aliocisoi• si with thole who have let up
the cry of 44 Nu Putney," and infcribed it upon their
banner. It was this principle which palisaded the
whole tit' their condud, upon which .they founded
their claim to putalie confidence, and which he was
ferry to fee find its way into the Speech front the
Thome, which determined him to uppisfe the Ad.
diets. Ue c mild not bring himfelf to congratulate
his Majefty upon a Cubic& which he, and he was
perfuaded, a. stall urtimity of the refleeing part of
the people, fincerely deplored : a meafine which
produced weaknefa when Strength was necetfary.—
Feeling it therefore to be his duty to reprobate this
principle, he would propofe an amendment to the
Addreis, which fhould retain nothing of the original
addief, bat the preliminary word.. His Lordship
then read the Amendment, which was of great
length, and began with condemning the manifell
milconduCt of his Majesty's Ministers in Adviling the
dillolution of the lase Patliamtn,.
The Amendment having Iwo read from the Wool-,
lack, the Loan CIIANCk LLtlit was about to put the
quellion, when
Lord BORINGDON tole. The amendment ap- '
peared to bins to be a fill j :CI, better C ‘lculated for

of the &tithes, he thought it entitled to the favour•

perate, it was moderate. It carefully ahltained from
All thole topics which could p►ovoke hest lir parry
animrifil y. His Lordfhip maintained the right of the
Sovereign, whenever the interelts of his people lhould
call for filch an esercife of the prerogative, and con
tended that the delfolution of the late Parliament was
rendered unavoidable by the condo& of the late Mi•
'litters. They had rendered themfelees incapable of
coptinuing in office ; it was they who made a pledge

capable of fuch folly and wickednefs. Had they
been fa difpofed, they could have been at no loft for
inliruments to diffeminate it. Every manufafturing
town, every populous diftriet, would have fupplied
them with ample means. But fo far from having
recourfe to filch bate and unworthy praaices, the,,
fa& was, that they did every thing in their power to
fupprefs it. He was not fanguine enough to fuppoft
that the prefent addrefs, however unexceptionable.
would not be oppofed. He knew. for fome days. that
an amendment was intended ; that the oppofitioo to
it was pre determined. He was aware that it waii
the effence of politics to confider what was palling of
the greateft importance, and that though their Lord-
(hips of late years were not much in the habit of op-
poling addrefres. Rill that was nn reafon why the
prefent addrefs fhould not be oppofed. The whole
at the lad twenty five years of the p litical hillory of
this country .had been marked by as much heat as
any preceding periods and yet, within the whole of
that time there were only two inftances of oppofition
to an addrefs in anfwer to a Speech from the throne.
The fird was in iSot, when the oppofition amounted
SO feventeen ; the fecund in 1794, or 1795, when
they could not molter more than twelve. At the
turbulent period of 1784, there was a long debate
and a numerous divifinn in the other Houk, but the
addrefs was voted without oppofition by their Lord-
(hips. This example, which it, would much furprife
him indeed to fee followed to night, refle&ed no
credit on she loyalty ar feeling of their Lcrdfhips.—
With refpea to the unfortunate events before Con-
dantinople, and in Egypt, he had no with to learn
to know to whole account thole dilaters were to be
attributed. He could not perceive. however, that a
Noble Lord, who exulted In much in the firft erro-
neous account of our fucceffes, and who almost
claimed the fole merit of having fuggeited the plan,
was fo ready, now that he found matters had not
(pile aufwerezt his expeetation, to come forward, and
ffer to take his flute of the blame and refponfibility
of the failure. His Lordihip deprecated the amend-
ment, as calculated to give fatisfaition to that Po•
tentate. whole aftonifhing fuccefs was owing, in a far
treater degree, to the divifions of his enemies, than
his own ftsbilantial ltrength and power. There was
nothing, he was continced, he would hear with
greater pleafure, than a great (chitin in the political
sentimerit of the people of this country. Confidering
the amendment of the Houk as tending to afford
him that pleafnre, he would vote againft it.
Lord HOLLAND, after having heard the two
lad fpeeches from the other fide of the Houle, could
not reconcile it to himfelf to give a (dent rate on the
Isreftion. The principles he heard proclaimed were
610 monitrous. they went fit totally to overthrow every
recognized principle of the Conliitution. that he
(feared he could not bring himfelf to (peak of them
with the temper which befitted the alterably he was
addreding. The lall Noble Speaker had mixed a
fort of pleafantry with his argument. :le contended,
in a very good Immured way, that the Houfe was
incompetent to pronounce any opinion on the Speech;
that the Adch els was to be an echo of the Speech, or
nothing. But was an affembly of MIA Peers to
be thus fettered in their opinions ? Were they in the
exercife of the high privileges derived to them from
their forefathers, to fay nothing which was not per.
feelly ag. eeable to the Court and t the Government ?
He had paired more years in opposiion, than the Il
Noble Lot d, and had turned his mind more to Amend-
ments, and he thongbt he had voted oftener than
twice in oppohtion to Adds des, in the courfe of the
lad feventeen years. The racfent Addrefs was In
drawn up, that it was imprable any of the late Ad-
miititlration could concur in it. Why, he would aik,
were their Lordthips to be more tenacious in mate&

Lord had iofilled a good deal on what he called a
