for the Orsliv.of Council refpeaing the 'sinewt that

ceived that there could be any groan'fls.ofaspopoatine
to that motion, except that the ?aper appeated oft
leis, as being-.a thing' of public notoriety, barb%
been already publithed in- the Landon Gazette. It
was true that every argument might as well bead-

Papers to be laid before the Houfe when any motion
was intended to be grounded on theni.

Lotd.HOWICK ' -11 Q means ronfiderett that

_ by
produdioa of fuels a Palter was a matter of comic.
Although it might be toferted in the Gazette, and
he a mime' of ptiblie'notoriety, yet it did not follow
that it fhould be laid before the Houfe for-the per.
pofe of founding any proceeding of which the.Houfi
did not approve. As tar as he conld tolled the vi
of the Honourable and Learned Gentleman, he c'
n'crt poffibly concur with him—he conceived his
jeft to be altorther unprecedented, and highlyibr
jettionable. He, however, had no ohjeftion to*
polponement of the motion, as he allowed is to be
of importance, and one which deferved confideratioe.
Mr. PERCIVAI. was forprifed that the Nobie
Lori fhould feel the motion that he anticipated, to
be fa very objeftionable, when he was ignorant of
the precife nature and ate& of it. He believed
that when it came to be dircuffed, it. would be
found that it was not his motion, but the rounds
upon which the hl.)ble Lord intended to oppofe
that motion, that would be found to be altogether
unprecedented.
Lord HOWICK laid that would appear whenever
the motion came to be dinuffed.` Inehe 'mean tier
he wifhed the fEmnurable Gentlemab would

Paper, if produced.
Mr. PERCIVAL had no objeainti;tolate ter

refolved on the manner in which he yeti 'to thane it t'
he wifhed to bring under the difcdfion of the Houle

ARMY ESTIMATES.
Mr. JOHNSTONE rofe to move,

nary expences of the Army;their pay, am] the deli
of the regular expenditure, he did not think'that lac
pf fuch material confequence, as it was a thing which
could be eafily calculated ; but at prefent, when de
greater part of the ex-pence of the Armf is in extra.,
ordinaries, it was more peculiarly necetTary to knee
what thefe items were, apd efpecially as in fome is
fiances, one of which he bid mentioned on a former

appeared to have been a great degree of negligee.
