place thrmleives. they would perfevere in that fend-
ment. If now they &mid be incommoded by fewer
thorns, it would tnt becaufe fame had been extraaed
by the dilicence of the late Adminittration. Theft
were not times in which the public fervice wool(' ad.
mit of trifling : the reins of the Rare mull be held by
a firm hand, or the rood painful confecmences were
to he apprehended. There was an opening for peace
prefented, which, according to the opinion of the
people ,f England, was not to be neglected ;—they
made the proper advances, and the attempt, however
unfuccefsful, was meritorious. The chance to °b-
aron the power of our great enemy had been tried
ineffeaually by a formidabi.e co-operation of the
Continental Powers, and a peace was difcreetly at.
tempted, to prevent new difappointments. In re•
Raid to the army and navy, the meafures the late
fel vants of the Crown purfued, were at once contli-
tutional, and direCted to increafe there two Ponces
of the national defence. As to the army, the
mode adopted for its improvement had been argued
as a military expedient by thofe who were much
more competent to determine on its policy than lie
was ; yet, on the ordinary principles of common fenfe,
the m.afure appeared to his mind reafonable, and
that they were conftittnional, he had no doubt t and
he felt great gratitude to thole who propofed them,
as they were manifeftly conducive to remove the evil
In much feared by our anceflorr, he meant the exif-
tence of a large (landing army ; and he earneßly en-
treated of the Mini tiers now in power, that they would
not in this refpeet introduce thcfechanges which might
in the fequel be fubvet live of the Conflitution. In re-
trd to the navy, there was at lead one indication of
its good management, fence there was no period of
our late protraaed wars in which fewer captu-es had
been made. If we were to proceed further, and to
examine the politions of the fquadrons expanded
over the leas, new proofs would be fupplied of the
politic condo& in that important department. With
refpeet to the finances, it was Peen that the greeted
economy had been applied,although perhaps the great
capital& of the country were among thole who were
the lead fatisfied with the arrangements. Dircon-
tznt under fuch circumilances was in human nature,
and could nut be feparated from it. It was impoffi-
ble that there fbould not be a predileetion with per-
tons of large fortune, in favour of thofe who would
enable them to employ it to the grewed advantage.
But although he would not depreciate men of great
pecuniary refources, yet there was a middle order
of men who had patiently follained the bur then of
this expenfive war, and would do their tamoll•to fuf-
taiu as long as they had confidence in thofe who
direCted his Majefly's Councils—that clafs cf men
would perceive, that the plan laid down by the late
Wolters was calculated to relieve them, under loch
extraordinary pied-ore, and would feel mortified and
dilheattened when it was abandoned. Had not there
aclvifers of the crown met every inquiry into their
financial fyllem with a manly and temperate fpii it,
in order to adopt every improvement, and to give
the fulled fatislaNion to thole who were to fultain
the heat and labaur of the day ? In this fituation of
things, his friends, who had retired from office, had
cart ica with them the approbation of their own con-
fr.iences, confirmed by the refpeet and gratitude of
their country. It had been afferted, that the late
Adminifiration had been inactive, in not affording to
our Allies the affißance they expected. He granted
that they had not fubfitlized the nations of Europe,
as had been done on former oceafrons, but they had
aged more wifely—and by Rationing the naval force
in proper direftions, they had moll powerfully co
operated with thofe • who defended the- common
caufe. He was afloniffied to hear it laid, that there
might be an exercife of the Royal Prerogative, for
which no one could, or ou;ht to be'refponfible. If
it might be In in one indance, it might be in all
cafes, and nothing could be more unconftituti :nal
than fuch a principle. With regard to loyalty, the
term Well was too tame and cold to exprefs that im-
paffioned attachment which a Britilh fubjea feels
towards his Sovereign —his blajefly had condantly
!hewn his attention to the in.erell and happinefs of
his people, and his veneration fur the Constitution of
the country ; yet the fubjea would be in danger of
lofing the bell charatter of his loyalty, and the mod
important part of his honourable immunities, if he
were not to be permitted to quellion the exercife of
the Royal prerogative. On a late occafion, tbe
King's Miniflers recommended a meafure which bad
recently received much dircuffion : he alluded to the
conceffion to the Catholics in the army and navy.—
This was not brought forward, that Gentlemenmight
indulge themfelves in fine fpeeches—it was introduced
to tranquilize the mind of the fubjea, in
fa
particular
part of the realm ; and when from oppolition, either
at home or abroad, that important defign fhould be
disappointed, it was confident with every notion lie
could form of wifdom and duty, to withdraw it.
They did this, however, with the proper refervation,
that their opinions fhould be unbiaffed and unfet-
tered, that they fhould be allowed to declare that
they had not abandoned their former fentiments, and
that when the occafion fhould judify it, they might
be permitted again to fubmit to their Royal Maker
the propriety or neceffity of loch a meafure. This
appeared to him to be a fair and refpcaable prceeed-
ing : they could not content to become time (crying
thrillers, or to bar ter the interefts of their country
for the power 'and emoluments of office. It was
faid, that the King could difmifs his Miaifters at his
pleafure, and that therefore there could be no ground
for demanding the pledge. Into that he fhould not
enquire, but it was perfectly clear to him, that Mi-
triflers could not conflitutionally enter into fuch 'an
engagement. They could not be reftrieled in the
advice they loofa give to the Crown ; they were
the guardians of the country, and mull refpea the
relation they fuftained to it. He would alien yet
more—that, had they acceded to the pledge, loch
Minifters would have been the proper (Niels of Par-
liamentary Impeachment. The New Miniflers were
faid to be confined by no loch pledge, but he would
contend, that they were pledged, by the very act
of undertaking their prefent inflations. Suppofing
the conceffion that had been propofed to the Ca-
jtholica fhould be neceffary to preferve the rights
of the Crown, and the tranquillity of the People,
.Vas it to be expcaed that, contrary to Huth, they
Mould come to the Houk, and declare that they were
erroneous in their judgment ? He commendethed theM
for avowing, tn an opeo and manly way, ir fenti-
Yents; and their withdrawing the Lill was capable of

complete vindication. flnee the contrary would.havel
given rife to feriaits diiilions at this critical moment,
Brith he and the whole nation mull prefer this coq-1
du& to that of accepting offfces under a difgnifeci
pledge, which was made In fficiently manifell from thel
minute which had been laidopoti the table. If nothing,
which had fallen from his Hon. Friend, or from him-
fell, in this debate, fhould induce the Houle to de
dare its confidence in the late Adminitiration, he
hoped, at leaft, it would not be prevented from this
bold acknowledgment of its feelings, by the indifcreet
threat of the Right Hon. Secretary ( Mr. Canning)
to advife his Majefly to diffolve the Parliament. He
would cenfrdently affert,. that there was no example
of fuch a menace. Was it to be confidered as a fpe-
cimen of the talents of-the new Secretary for the ar.
I duous duties of his office, in which nation he had Inc-
ceeded a Nable Lord of extraordinary powers, and
who was the follower of an illattrious ftatefman,
who, to the greaten luaviry of manners, united the
greaten drength and dignity of intelleft. He hoped
that the Right Hon. Secretary would not fuppofe he
meant any perfonal difrefpe& to him ; without any
intention of that kind, he (Mr. Hibbert) was dif
charging what he conceived to be an imperious eon-
ffitutional duty. He might think as humbly of him•
fell as any man : he might facrifice in his private
capacity all the emotions cf pride ; but the honour
of that Houfe was a facred troll, which could not be
refigned, which mutt not be fligmatized with impu-
nity ; and if the threat of the Right Hon. Secretary
were to be patiently endured, the contlitution of our
ancellors mutt loon be fnrrendered.
The SPEAKER having read the refolution from
the chair,
Mr. MILLS expreffed his fur prife at the arguments
ufed by the H‘ n. Gentleman who (poke before him ;
bit Wore he entered into any obfervations in reply,
he would hate his preliminary objefliao to the form
of the motion. There we.-e two dillinet propofitions
included in it ; the fill way, that the late Minifters-
deferved well ; the fecond, that their diftnifTAl was
11 improper. Ir was certainly poffible to accede to the
, meritorious conduit of Minifters, and yet it might be
i the cafe that thefe fet vices would be no longer need:
fary to his hlaj_fty's Government : fo that, whatever
might be the juttice of the language of panegyric
1 that had been employed towards them, it was not a
il neceffary inference that they ought not to be removed.',
if this objeflion, in point of form, were correct; he
might perhaps be excufed, if lie did not examine the
1 foundation of all that prodigality of praife that had
been applied. It had been very naturally enquired,
if the pledge propoted to the late Minillers were not
Ole neceffary confequence of their own milt:nodal ?
The anfwer eafily fug.gefted itfelf: it was the una-
voidable effdl of their mdifcreet precipitation. There
were many fubjefts that had been referred to which
1 he would not diced, : he would n• t determine, if the
negociation for peace had been well managed 1 if the
war had been profecuted with vigour and ability ; if
the States of the North had been properly fupported,
if the innovations on the fyflem of finance were pru-
dent ; or if the judicial enquiry into the behaviour
of a gallant Naval Officer were reputable ? None of
thefe matters would be inveftigate : with forte they
might appear to defetie the commendation that bad
been applied to them ; with others they would receive 1
an oppofite confttufln,n. For one thing, however, 1
he would give them credit, and that was for the abo- 1
le ion of the Slave Trade, to which an-Hon. Friend
of his (Mr. Wilberforce) had devoted his powerful'
and liberal mind for fo long a petiod of time. What-
ever might be the lofty notions the Ex-Minifters en-
tertained of their own talents, he would after I, that
the new fervants of the Crown were by no means
nultified by any fuch fuperiority ; and, polkaing
equal winlom with their predeceffors in offic.:, he ,
hoped they would avoid that tone and manner to
which the Houfe was lately accuflomed, which,
accompanied by
the mon brilliant talents, was dif.
(wiling, and without them was contemptible. Let
°them exert what violence they pleated in their prefent
fituation, the oppofizion would not, by loch an exhi.
bition of their powers, prevail againft the ability and
eloquence of the new Adminiftration. He could not
avoid noticing one remark of the Hon. Gentleman
who had jolt fat down, and it *as applied to a remark
of the Right Hon. Secretary refpeCting a poffible dif
Motion of Parliament. Such an obfervation had
never received, he believed, the fame confttuftion
before, and he could venture 'to fay that no threat
was intended. In the conftitutional view of the mid
tion, it was quite enough for the Houfe to know that
Mininers were difmiffed, that they had been remov
ed in the way the Conffitution had direted; and it
was molt abfurd therefore to contend, that on fuch
an occafion there was any violation of thofe princi
pies which every man mutt be inclined to refpea.
Their Royal Matter, when he difmilled his late Ser-
vants, faid it was an aft of indifpenfable neceffity ;
and in this particular the motion teemed to hate a,
mon pernicious tendency, as it tended to oppofe
the Executive Authority in the exercife et one of its
molt important duriei. .It was difficult to conceive
why the prefent Minffters ought to have declined
taking the helm of the State into their own hands.
Was it from a fort of brotherly'fympathy with thol
who had retired.from office, left tg,ey fhould give of-
fence to their predeceffors, or •to what other caufe ,
was filch relaftance to be afcribed ? What fhould be
the cond'u of the late Minifters, who affeeted to have
retired from their public duties from confcientious
motives ? It fhould not be direfted to oppofe his
Majcfly's Government, on whomfoever the impor-
tant truft might devolve ; their objet fhould be, to
promote the publif good by every means in their
I power, and to facilitate the ditcharge of the arduous
duties of thole who had fucceeded them. Difcarded
from his Majefty's Councils, they fhould retain their
refped to the Monarch, and their affection to their
country. By loch motives they ought to be influ-
enced ; at leaft, he hoped they Would not madly.
furrender themfelves to a blind and headlong oppofi.
tion ; and that their friends and adherents would
have the modefty to futpend their condemnation of
the new Minifters, until tonne opportunity Ihould
have been afforded of witneffing their conduit ; or,
in other words, until they had been tried. No doubt
could atife on the terms in which the Refolution was
expelled ; its general purport could not be mifun-
derftood. Before, an abftraft point was to be die-
cuffed ; now, the words were more clear and precife,
and precluded the poffibility of any mifapprehenfion.
Such were the fentiments he had to exprefs on the
prefent occafion, He was anxious that a temper of

Conciliation fhould prevail ; and he fhould be forty
if the late Miniflers could not have tke dignity to re
tite from their Rations, without repining at thole
who had fucceeded them. Whatever might be the
influence of the fpeeches of the two Hon. Gentlemen
upon others, upon his mind they had no effe& but to
increafe his objections to what they had recommen-
ded—he fhould therefore conclude with moving the
" Order of the Day."
The Hon. Mr. WARD expreffed his perfett con•
currence in the original motion. It was couched itt
terms of moderation and truth, from which no difin
terefted friend of his country could reafonably with-
hold his affent, notwithflanding 211 the pains which
had been taken, and all the artifices employed, both.
within and without thofe walls, to depreciate the
charafters and the conduet of his Welty% late K-
nitters. No Rratagems had been left untried—no
falfehood unpropagatedi to imprefs the public mind
with a belief, that it was their determination to hold
permanent power againli the will of their Sovereign,
and to influence both Houfes of Parliament to flip-
port them in meafirres againfl the with and opinioa
of their Royal mailer. If he had teen any thing in
their conduct tending to fuch purpofes, he would be
one of the &ft men to tefufe them his fupport.—
There was no one more ferioufly difpoled to pay
every deference to the withes of the Crcwn on tub-
jests of legiflation, and towards our gracious Sove-
reign, venerable for his age, and admired and be-
loved for his virtues ; no man was difpofed to carry
his reverence higher upon every loyal and contlitu •
tional principle. He therefore felt it necefftry, as
one of the firm fupporters of his Majefl y's late G iv, rn
ment, to vindicate himfelf from a charge, which he
did not think any one would be mean enough to im-
pute to t!se late Minifters, among(' whom there were
fo many perfons of the higheti character, talents, and
petriotifm, and of whom even his Majefly, in the
very moment of their difmilfal, was pleated to exprefs
his molt grazi ,us approbation. No man could
deny, that the late Minitters flood high in the
opinion of their Sovereign and of the people—
and, happily fir them, nothing could be more
clearly undo; flood than the caufe which led to
their difmiffal. That caufe arofe limply from their
offering to the confederation of parliament a meafute
which they conceived to have had his Majefty's ap-
probation. So foon as they were taught to moiler-
Rand that it had not, they agreed to withdraw it ;
but that was not futhcient ; a folemn pledge was de-
manded of them, never again, under any circtim-
fiances, to advife his Majetly to inch a meaftue,
or to any thing conneaed with the fithjea. This,
however, they firmly but refpeafully declined ;
for they could not conceive it as confitlent with
their duty or their oaths, ac Privy Councillors, to
withhold their advice from his Ma;efty upon that, or
any other fubjeet connected with the welfare and
fecurity of his empire ; for this, and this folely, they
were difmiffed. It was not for the retention of power
they were anxious, much !els to retain that power
contrary to the withes of their Sove:eign. Their role
anxiety was, to leave the adminiftration of the coun•
try in able hands, but by no means to force thern'elves
upon their Sovereign, as had been charg,ed ae,ainft
them, or to affume the office of Mayors of tkr Palate.
It would kern that his Majefly would have been at a
lots to fill a very principal place amongst their fuc
ceifo,s, if the Right Hon. and Learned Gentleman'
oppofite to him had not been tempted to accept the
office of Chancellor of the Exchequer, by the addi•
tional bounty of the Chancellorthip of Lancaller (fir
q.t., if it had not been prevented by the interpofionn
of Parliament ; but, certainly, for as long a time as
he could hold is), in order to enable him to aband. n
his profeffional labours, and to Rand forth as a holy
champion in vindication of the religion of his coun-
try. Had it not been for a printed paper recently
put. into his hand, as the addrefs of that Right
Honourable and Learned Gentleman to his consti-
tuents, at the late Northampton eleftion, he could
not have thought it poffible that filch a fubter- 1
fuge would have been adopted by any man fit
to occupy a feat in that Hook, in aid of his can-
vas, as that of a fanatical hand bill, calculated to ex-
cite religious warfare in the country. If he were to
judge of the writer by the paper, he never could have
fuppofed it to come from a great lawyer, an exalted 1
Ratefman, and a Cabinet Minifler of the Crown; but:
rather that it was the production of come mifchievous
incendiary, who wilhed to fet up the war whoop of
fanaticifm through the land, to let mars againft man,
and lea againft fed, in a religious warfare, and to
extite anarchy and bloodffied through the nation. The'
late Minifters had yielded every thing to the withes
and fcruples of their Sovereign, but their own honour
and their feelings, which they were not bound to re
linquifh. If there were any circuretances about the,
tranfaftion which caufed their difmitlal, to which he 1
(Mould feel inclined to attach blame, it would be to
that or their not havingrelinquilhed their fituations,
when they were called on to abandon the Catholic
Bill, inflead of confenting to that furrender, and
awaiting the completion of the plot then maturing be.
hind the throne for their difmilral. Such would have
-been-the conduit of Mioiflers of the Crown, in times
better to the Conilitation, and more aufpicious to the
people; he did not mean the days of the Correfpon•
ding Society, or the preceding mra of fanaticifm,
when nefropery was the cry, and anarchy and confla-
ration the order of the day; but in times when the
Prerogative of the Crown and the duty of its advifers
were better underaood, and when fuch a pledge as
that which had been demanded of them would have
been confidered -as the groffeß degradation. It
was fingularly unfortunate, at a moment like the
ptefent, when the honors of the French Reyblution,
and the fears of anarchy, were linking into oblivion,
and fentiments of party and faction fubfiding, to raife
a cry of fanatical prejudice, to excite new difcorde,,
and promote religious rancour and intolerance, in-
Read of cementing the union of every clafs of flab=
jests, fo vitally Peccary to the common fectuity of
thefe kingdoms. Had the late Miniliers figsed the
pledge required of them, they would have figned
their own infinity, and Pealed their difgrace, and they
would have Abandoned the caufe of toleration beol
queathed to them by a great Stattfman, who
with his halt breath, recommended the abolition of
all religious prefcriptions, as the bell meafnreaif fat•
vation to thefe countries, and' of fecurity to his Ma-
jelly's Crown. With refpea to the queflion ptopofed
by his Hon. Friend, he fincerely regretted the late
change bf Adminiftration, becaufe it had dept lye] his
Islajely of able Miniftcrs, and the country of an

efficient and patriotic Government, and it had re.
placed them by men of a precifely oppofite defcrip.
tion in every refpeat. In their meafttres of rigid vi-
teitance and economy towards the public expenditure,
Lilt late Minitters had afforded a rare but brilliant
example, even to the rifle of narrowing their own
patronage and confequent influence. In their finan-
cial arrangements, the country, notwithtlanding the
heavy expendi toes of-the war, law a plan for conti-
nuing that war without additional taxes, and this
was calculated to int-trite them with r.ew fpirit to
maintain the flruggle. But it now remained to be
Peen, by what new efforts of fublidy their fuccetfors
would again exhault Englith gold, the fruits efEng-
lith labonr, and the tribute of Engin dillrei, to
Ilimulate once more the languid Governments of
Europeagainfl the enemy, and to purchafe another
triumph like the b rule of A ufierlit z, to enable the
Secretary atWar, than whom no man was more ;erne
potent, to convert a defeat into a vinlore, for v.hich
purpofe he would probably be loonpht dots n by a
fpccial retainer to the Foreign Office. Ile nee' ad=
verted to the aepointment of the Chancellor or the
Exchequer, for no other cetalification than ;hat of
being a lawyer, without the dealt knowledge or
finonce. lie contended that the chief reafon which
rendered the late Ministers fo extremely obnox'ous or
the whole army of jobbers arid pecolatorse was their
economy in the public expenditure : and now this fa.
pacions race hailed their cOfiniffil, and cheered the
appointment of their facceff rc, as the fignal ef re.
turning prosperity, the ievieal of thefe etrod eta
times, when corruption and peculation went hand ia
hand. Of this the comory ftw an obvious prodie
the recal of a Noble Lotto his Majetfy's Council,
who, in his defence betore• the! Haule, or rather is
the proof of his guilt, avowed, that he had beta
cntrufled with a large fum of the public money, el •
u hie!) he had difonled, but f r which he would never
ace runt. He withed to know what thole Miniften
could fay for advifing the recal of that Noble
Lord to power. while the Ref;,littinos of the Bth of
April (till remained upon the journals (lithe( Houle.
He charged upon fume of the prefent Adminillsatioa
the grolieri incenftilency, it their coming into place
upon a pledge neve:, ts?advife-the very meafure, fir
their former inabilitfro obi ain which, under the aufpi.
cos of their leader,- Mr. Pitt, they had relinquilled
power along with that great Statefman. Like him too,
they abandoned the Governmeat at the molt critical
period—but in this they prantifed the principle of
ancient war fare, by preventing the fpoils of theft
leader from falling into the hinds of his enemies:
they jult continued long enough to collect the fpolia
opima of their fallen cLampion, and then fled from
the helm they were no longer able to guide ; and
now again they feemed to have fprung upon their
fucceffors as it were from a fort of ambufh, and again
forced their tray to that power from which they had
fled, throueh a c al-cirrus inability for its adminiftra-
don, which they had now nbtaire I by a lolg and
dirk iror:gue. a:nd f,,r the retention of which the
Right Hon. secretary hid a few nights fince pre-
finned to infult tiler Houle by a threat to diffolve the
Parliament. Mr. Pitt, in the zenith of his power,•
had never petrimed to tire 1,01 a threat, in any de-
bete where be was apprehenfive of being left in a
minority. The prefent Mini:leis might try the cape.
rirneut ; bat it would never procure his power to the
prefect Chancellor of the Exchequer, nor transfer kis
glory to the Noble Lord at the head of the Treafury.
