• was fanaioncl by the former proceedings of the
Houk. The Hon. Gentleman had compared this
cafe to that of Lord Rodney, on the taking of St.
Euflatia, but they were totally diflimilar, for Lord
Rodney (and he lamented the inconvenience that
Noble Lord had futtained) aeled upon his own
judgment, and his own refponfibility ; whereas,
Lords St. Vincent and Grey aeted, not upon their
own rcfponfibility, but in cnnfequence of pnfitive
orders from Government. As to any other claims
being made by other Officers, that could not be
the cafe, becaufe they aged under the orders of
Lords St. Vincent and Grey, whom it was now
propofed to indemnify.
Dr. LAWRENCE raid, it was impoffible that any
other claims could be made, becaufe the prefent
indemnity would comprife the whole. As to the
comparifon of this cafe with that of Lord Rodney,
there would have been no foundation for fuch
comparifon, even if Lords St. Vincent and Grey
had not aged upon politive orders.
Mr. JONES objeaed to the great amount of the
Law Charges, and alluded to an obrervation of
Lord Kenyon upon the great amount of Fees in
the Admiralty Court.
Dr. LAWRENCE laid, there was a miftake upon
that fubjea ; betides, the Noble Lord's obferva-
tions were not upon the Proaors.
The CH ANCELLOR of the Excrircurra laid, that
it would be fingular if they were to refufe to pay
the law expences of there Noble Lords, when they
propofed to indemnify them.
Dr. LAWRENCE Paid, that a great part of the
law expences had been incurred in conlequence of
the difficulty of procuring the necetrary documents,
for it had been necetrary to fend over agents to
the Wea Indies to procure them;
Mr. Jones and Mr. Robfon Paid a few words.—
The Refolution was then agreed to.
The CHANCELLOR of the Excasopra moved,
That the fum of 410,0001. be granted to make up
the deficiency of the furn of racro,oool. ariftng
from the ceafing of the Convoy Duty.—Agreed to.
The SECRETARY at WAR then role to move the
ettimates for the Militia: he Paid the numbers re-
mained the fame, and he now propofed to vote
the Militia for two months; he fhould therefore
move, That a furn not exceeding 238,0001. be
granted for the Militia Service, from the 25th of
March to the 24th of May.
Mr. Rosso,. Paid, after the Preliminaries had
been figned in 1783, the Militia were dilbanded.
Wt were at prefent in a fingular hate, for nobody
knew whether we were at peace or at war. The
refolution was then agreed to.
The SECRETARY at Watt moved, That a fum not
exceeding 135,6921. be granted for the Militia Ser-
vice in Ireland, for the fame period.
Mr. JoNEs wiffied to know if there were any
foreign corps now in our fervice ?
The SECRETARY at WAR raid there were—they
amounted to about 13,000 men.
Mr. Joss' Paid be should fubmit a motion to the
Houle upon the fubjea. The refolution was agreed
to, and the Houfe being refumed, the report was
ordered to be received to-morrow.

This day we received Paris Journals to the 21(1
inclufive. Their contents are given in the
preceding columns. Judging by the price of Tier:
Confolitil, which have fallen to 55 f. io c. it would
appear that the panic which has feveral times de.
preffed our own funds, from an apprehenfion that
Peace is Rill diflant, has reached the Parifians. On
the Rite of the negociations, however, there jour-
nals are filent.
