known by this Proclamation to all my Subjetts,
Vaffals, Feudatories, Corporations, Ecclefiallics, and

Sir H. MILDMAY, teeing ;iit;ble Lord (now.
WO in his place, walled to know whether, as a cer-
tain number of French Officers of rank had been
permitted to return, a correfpondeot number of our'
Officers were to be exchanged
Lord HOWICK replied, that a certain number of '
French Officers had been permitted to return, but
at the fame time that there was no regular exchange
of prifoners agreed on between France and this coun-
try. Some officers of this country had been allowed
to return en their parole, and fome Engliffi fubjetas
had been fuffered to return home, who could nor be
confidered as prifaners of war, but he regretted to fay
that others had been detained.
LORD MELVILLE.
Mr. WHITBREAD, in purfuance of hie notice,
moved, that a Committee be appointed to infpea the
Journals of the Houfe of Lords, in relation to the
proceedings on the trial of impeachment again&
Henry Lord Vifcount Melville, and to report what
they fhall find therein to the Houfe.
Sir H. MILDMAY wifbed to know the objea of
the Hon. Member in making this motion.
Mr. WHITBREAD replied, that fume informa-
tion may be found in thofe Journals which the Houle
of Commons ought to be in p• Ifetlion of, for the
purpofe of regulating its future condu&.
Mr. DENT begged the Honourable Member to
give a more explicit anfwer refpeling the objeet of
his motion.
' Mr. WHITBREAD faid he would make the Ho.
nourable Member wifer if he could, but it was really
out of his power to fay more on the fubje& till he
knew what the Journals contained. He would only
obferve, therefore. for the prefent, that the Judges'
opinions would be found in the JournAls' which it
might be deferable and neceff.try that the Houle
timid he acquainted with.
Mr. FULLER reminded a Noble Lord ( H. Petty)
of having laid, that if Lord Melville Ihould be ac-
quitted, his expellees ought to be defrayed. or Lome
adequate remuneration made to

'The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
recollefted having hated in argument, that the yuef.
lion of remuneration would be a fubjeft for confider-
tion more properly after the trial of the Noble Lord
than before it.

Mr. FULLER raid, that he ihould m4ke a mo•
lion for remuneration to Lotd Melville, if no c.thc.r
peat* took up the tub Jed.

•
Mr.W. DIYNDAS adverted to the heavy musette
which his Noble Relative had been -pot to, and oh
Iferved, that the queftion when the Nobleraord (Petty)
!'poke, turned upnn the delay which might take place
in the courfe of the vial, but it In happened that
there was no erviordinsry delay in any.patt of the
proceedings.—The mu•ion was then agreed to, and
a Committee appointed, confitling of Mr. Fox, Mr.
• Whitbread, Lewd Hnwiek, H. Pet'''. kc. &c.
enarswicw psrelousaa

Lord HOWICK faid, that he felt himfelf at pre-
test under the needfity of pollponing the motions of
which Ise bad given notice, relative to ameliorating
Me &nation of the Greenwich Peofoners, as it was
found mere regular, that they fivooold come in the
form of a 'Waage from the King. He should at
prtfent content himfelf with moving for revere) pa.
pens on the fubjed. He therefore moved, that there
be laid before the Hours, a copy of a minute, dated
the Stb Ma. from the Governors of Greenwich Hof-
pical. relative to the improvement of its funds.
Mr. CANNING egpreffed himfelf happy, that at
length a recognition of his Majesty's prerGgAtive had
been made $ and that. in the pretent instance. the
more fit and decorous method of a Meftage from the
Crown was to be retorted tio. He was happy, that
• that*. in the cafe of the additional pay granted in
the Mutiny Bill, which was analogous to the preterit,
frome of his Majeßy's Minifiers had not thought fit to
priffue this regular method, and had taken the fhort
tut to popularity, yet the Noble Lord adhered to the
old method of originating boons of this kind horn the
Crown.

Lord HOWICK *plied, that he was not aware
that any analogy trifled between the prefent cafe, and
ghat to which the Right Honourable Gentleman had
alluded. The objett of the prefent meafure was, to
incresfe the emoluments of the out penlioners of
Geenwich Hofpital, by means of a grant of prize mo-
tley, which was the property of the Crown, and could
not be bellowed without its cor fent. However much
be might with for the good opinion of the Right Ho-
nourable Gentleman, yet, as the compliment he had
thought fit to pay to him, was given by way of con-
trail with the condo & of his colleagues in Admini.
titration, he would much rather difelaim it altogether.
lie then moved for an account of the Revenue and
txpenditure of Greenwich Hofpital, in the year end-
ing on the 3 ill of December Taft : alfo a Copy of a
Minute from the Supervifor of the Cheri of Green-
wich, relative to the amelioration of the Rate of the
out penlioners ; together with an account of the Re
'venue and Expenditure of the Chet for die left year;
all which were ordered.
•
WIST.INI/I• tOMMiItIONIte SILL.
Ur, HAWTHORNE brought up the Report of
the Committee on this Bill, which was taken into
further confideration. It befog propofed to fill up
a blank by the word two,
Mr. ROSE,contended, that from the prefent form
of the bill, there was no certainty that any of the
.Commiffioners would go to the Weft Indies. He
therefore wifhed a claufe to be introduced, enaning
that three of the Commiffioners fhould proceed t., the
Weft Indies, to fulfil the purpofes of the Commiffiois ;
and that if any one thould die, his place Ihould be im-
mediately filled op.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEZIER re-
plied, that the number of the Commiffiouers fent out
might be altered according to circumaances.
Mr. PERCEVAL remarked, that much the
greaten weight of duty exifled in the Well Indies,
where alas t much greater mortality was to be dread-
ed. It was therefore prepollerour, that of a Board
itOnillting of Ave, the largeft proportion fhould remain
bare, where there was Co little to be done, and only
two be fent out to the Weft Indies.
Lord HOWICK replied, that all the voluminous
pccounts already received were to be brought up by
theCneniniffioners in this country. The great weight
of bufinefs would be at home, at leaft for the prefent,
and the Treafury would have it in their power to
fend out more if neceiTary.
Mr. LONG and the CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER each (poke Ihortly on the fubjeet.
Mr. MORRIS conceived, that it would not be the
hullo's(' of the Commiffioners fent out to form any
judgment on the fubjeets that might come before
b• but merely to invefligate and tranfmit the evi.
dame on the fiabjea of abufes, on which the Commit.
loners here,might decide, and grant to Public Ac-
stbuntants a certificate of allowance, or PA, as they
might fee eaufe, to be delivered in to the General
Auditors of Public Accounts.
Mr. RYDER contended, that the Cornmillioners
would be much better able to decide on the fpot
*here the Modes were committed. The prefer.: he
tonfklered as a meafure calculated merely to promcre
patronage, and as hill more glaring in that Mini.
Agra, who had pledged thendelvei not to Ipend
lugle guinea of the public money unneceltarily.
Mr. WILLIAM SMITH conteadcd, that the hu-
fuses here made it neceffaty for three of the Corn-
miffioners to remain in this country.
The SPEAKER then obrervr d, that, on the quell
tion now before the Houle, the future motion of the
Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Role), would depend.'
If the blank were now filled up by the two, every
Insure alteration would be precluded,
The Houfe then divided—For the dance 71—
Againft it z t —Majority 5 t.
Upon our return to the Gallery we found Mr.
HUSKISSON on his legs, urging fome further ob•
jeftions to the Bill. To which objeCtions Lord
HENRY PETTY replied, allcdAing that the mea-
fure was calculated to fecure a complete and fpeedy
inveftigation of the abufes complained of, and alto
to guard againft their recurrence.
Mr. ROSE repeated his former affertion, that the
places about to he created by the Bill would be mere
finecures, and ferve only to extend Minifierial patro-
nage. This afTertion the Right Honourable Gentle.
man exprefTed his refolution to repeat again and
again, however it might be refilled by the Noble
Lord, who ought, in his judgment, to have fought
much more experience before he had ventured to
originate a meafure of this nature, which betrayed a
total ignorance of official bonnets.
Lord HOWICK expreffed his furprife at the quar-
ter from which the Houle had juR heard filch vehe-
ment objeCtions againfl finecures. (A try of bear!
hear I) After much lofty declamation upon political
purity—after fuch high tones of independence—and
filch ardent expretlions of folicitude for the economic
expenditure of the public money, the Houle would

naturally look for come evidence of t e Right Rea.
Gentleman's fincerity, and no doubt that fincerity
would be evinced very loon, perhaps to morrow, by
the Right Honourable Gentleman's refignatien to his
Sovereign, of the finecute which he him felf held--
( Ariem/ laugh J—With regard to the Right Hontur -
able Gentleman's allufion to his Noble Friend
LPetty's) want of experienee it was true the Noble
ord obferved that his Noble Friend was not p
fend of that experience which might be looked for
from a veteran in office. There was, however, a
great deal of the experience to which, perhaps, the'
political fuccefs of the Right Honourable Gentleman
was owing, which be rather thought not del-treble to
hia Noble Friend ; while foci experience as was
really valuable, could not be difficult nf attainment to
that affiduous application of aflive talents for which
his Noble Friend was fo eminently dillingnithed.-
13ut upon the fubjeft of want of experience in the
arrangement of this meafure, the Right Honourable
Gentleman dealt, in feet, only in a!fertion—for expeti-
ence, even very recent, was in favour of that prowl-
lion in the Bill of which the Right Hnn. Gentleman
complained. It was notorious that in confequence
of the fending home one of the Commiffioners from
the Weft Indies in the cottrfe of the lift Adminiltra-
lion, the inquiries of the Commiffionets were materi•
ally Allied, and frauds to a great amount were dif-
, covered. Therefore the Right Hon. Gentleman's
affertion was not entitled en credence. It was grange,
the Noble Lord obferved, how refolute the Right
Hon. Gentleman and his Friends were to carry on
debate. He had hoped that the debate, on this fub-
jed at lean, was at an end before this evening; but
II the Right Hon. Gentleman and Co. Hill determined
' to perlevere—rather mote, to be fine, in bringing for-
ward accufations again( Minillers than in adducing
arguments againft their meafures. Among thofe ac•
cufed indeed, he underftood the Right Hon. Gentle-
man had thought proper on a former oceafion to in-
clude him—principally, as he was informed, in conic-
qucnte of tome appointments that were recently made
in the department over which he had the honour to
ptefide. Had he been prefent at the time the accufa
tion was made by that Right Hon.Gentleman,he molt
prcbably fhould not have felt it necelfary to take any
notice of it. But he now thought it proper fbortly to
remark upcn the cafes alluded to. And 6tH, with
regard to the removal of Sir A. Hammond from the
Navy Board, the fart war, that the Hon. Baronet
had made application flr leave to refign before the
patent of his appointment to the Admiralty was ac;
tually made out. The application was acceded too
and he had felt it his duty to recommend that the
Honourable Baronet fhould, as is ulual in loch cafes,
be alloWed three-fourths of his falary during life.—
At the fame time he had to mention, that the realm
of this grant was folely on account of the Honourable
Baronet's length of Cervices. The Noble Lord ad-
ded that tile ground of the Honourable Paronet's
application for leave to refign, was indifvfition and
c nfequent inability to attend to the duties of the
office ; but yet he was happy to fee that the lion”ur-
able Baronet was already to fir recovered as to he
able to attend all the debates r f that Houle (a /au;/.).
To Sir Andrew Hammond a fucceffitt (Captain Die-
ken,) v. as appointed, in every point of view tioc.xcep.
tionable ; but this Gentleman being dilqualified by
Rinds to net, Captain Nicholls, an officer of character
equally unqueltionable, was lubllituted for him. Of
the other three new appointments mule in the naval
department the Noble Lord declared,that fo far from
having any view to patronage, the only defire was to
procure perfons capable of an efficient difcharge of
duty in a branch of (mite where loch efficiency was
but too vifibly wanted ; and of thole who were ap-
pointed he had to Rate that not one was at all known
to hinsfelf or any of his colleagues in any other way
than from the report of their qualifications. There
was a fifth appointment about to be midi: in his de-
partment to which, perhaps, fomc part of the Right
Honourable Gentleman's cenfure noght he pointed.
That was with regard to Sir Charles Saxton% Office
et Portfmouth. That Officer's age unfitting him
for his prefent Ration, was about to retire, but requir-
ed that which he thought it his duty to refill, namely,
that he Ihould be allowed to retain the whole of his
falary. Upon the retirement of that Hon. Baronet,
the Noble Lord Hated his intention of recommending
an officer (Captain Grey) to fucceed him, his connec-
tirm with whom fliould nut prevent him from laying
that he was fully qualified for the office (a cry oil
Hear! Hear !). With refpeet then to the cantina of
the navy, the Noble Lord felt that the Right Hon.
Gentleman's imputations were as unfounded as thofe
which he had thought proper to direet again!' the
proceedings of his Noble Friend, and the meafure
before the Honfe.

Mr. ROSE thanked the Noble Lord for the oppor-
turity afforded him by the allufmn which he had
thought proper to make to the fubjeft, of explaining
the linecure granted to him. He was before difpofcd
to do fo, but he now felt it to :se neceffary, and fhould
enter into the explanation upon a future day. The
Right Honourable Gentleman panegyrifed the talents
and public fervices of Sir A. Hammond.
Mr. S. BOURNE was afkoniffied at the line of ar-
gument taken by the Noble Lord who fpoke !all but
one—namely, that becaufe a public man held a par-
ticular linecure, he fhould be precluded from objedt-
ing to the eltablifhment of any further finecures.—
Would the Noble Lord argue, that in enufequeuce of
his Right Hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Fo-!
reign Affairs holding two finecuret, (Mr. Role ex-
claimed tbree), and his Noble Friend at the head of
the Treafury holding two, they wereldifqualified to
refill the propufitinn of any new finecUres ? It the
Noble Lord would rot contend for that, upon what
grounds could he call upon his Right Hon. Friend,
(Mr. Role) who had got a linecure, ‘vhich War but
a jult reward for 3o years great public fervices, ro
(hut his mouth, and fay nothing upon fuck a mea-
lute as that before the Houle ? With regard to the
official cooduet of the Noble Lord, he did not be•
lieve that it was the ir.reotion of Iris Right Honour-
able Friend to cab the flightell imputation upon it.
But yet he could not help fsyinF„ that he was forty
the Noble Lord did not, in the admitAration of his
office, rather aft upon his own good judgment than
follow the advice of other.

The ATTORNEY GENERAL commented upon
the (pecks of experience of which the Right lion.
Gentleman on the ether fide (Mr. Rofe) teemed to
be fo very proud. This experience confined in a
knowledge, for the lalt 20 year., of the abufes which
it was the objeft of the Bill before the House to cur.

red, and yet ne adeqtlata Meartiremat ever taken by
the Right Hon. Gentleman, or his colleagues, to
put a Bop to them. No; the Right Hoe. Gentle ma's ,
and his colleagues were rewiring on the .'.Bed of
Rofes" which they were now using every endeay.wr
in their power to render unealy to 'heir fucceirtts.—
With regard to the Bill before the Houle, he could
not conceive any rearon fur the earnelt oppolition
made to the provifi m for appoimiag a part of the
propofed Commiffinners to inquire; in this country,
into the ahlifes committed in the Well Indies. Fur
he could not frippore it potrible that any Member of
Parliament would carry his tolkitude IT public ac-
countants,introduced to office through '•is patronage,
fo very far as to filcher the condo& of fuck aCCOIIII
tants as had taken refuge in this country, from any
invelligation whatever.
Mr JOHNSTONE, adverting to the " bed of
torts" alluded to by the salt Speaker, obferved, that
when he fith heard the phrafe he was certa:nly rather
furpriled at it. But, upon fubjequent reflation, fee-
itv, that the Gentlemen on one fide felt fo much regret
o;1 leaving it, and the Gentlemen on the other fide fo
touch anxiety to get into it, he could not help think-
ing that there ...oqs rowelling in the place much better
than lie had at &ft imagined With regard to the
crimivation and recrimination upon the fubje& of
firiecures, &c. which the Hnufe had witneffed from
both fides of the Houle, loch a praeice might avail
fnmething among the parties themfelve4, but could
have no effect for or againft any propofil ion upon the
minds of independent men, or when addretfed to the
difpaffionate under (landing of the country. It was of
little confequence to thofe who were anxious for the
right to find that both parties were wrong. In the
cafe before the Houle, he thought that Come of the
propofed Commiffioners would be ureters ; and it was
no defence for thole who propofed the Bill to make
out that their opponents had alto created finecurcs.
On the contrary, whenever the prefent Knitters
fbould be guilty of any thing prodigal or arbitrary,
he would think their guilt, considering their former
profthions, greeter in a tenfold degree than that of
their predeceffors. When in Oppofition, thole Gen-
tlemen were perpetually proferfing a love of ceconomy,
an hatred of arbitrary power, and a defire to limit
the increafing patronage of the Crown. For the ful-
filment of there profellions he had twitted fince their
acceffion to Office. But he had looked in vain, and
he had recently feen them from the lull of patronage
make a molt extraordinary ufe of prerogative in order
to difmif, from office an old, meritorious, .and highly
nfeful fervant of tlse public (Sir G. Barlow). From
the condtte, therefore, of fuck Ministers, the Hon.
Gentleman profelfed his incapacity to entertain a hope
of much public good.
Lord HOW!CK, in allufion to the remarks of an
Honourable Gentleman on the other fide (Mr. S
Bourne), obferved, that having been but a Osort time
in office, and being comparatively unacquainted with
the bufinefs of his department, he fhould feel it a
great prefumption for him to ad without taking the
advice of where.
Dr. LAWREYCE wondered that the Honourable
Gentleman had been fo many mon•hs in making up
his mind, whether the exprctlion tifed by a Noble
Lord was or was not applicable? He then proceeded
to argue in favour of the Bi:). on the general grounds
of the enormity of the exilling abates, and the ne-
ceffity of a thorough inveftigation of them.
Sir WM. YOUNG took notice of one great foorce
of fraud, from the different rates of etchango in the
different illaads. Other frauds could he Deft exa-
mined in England, as thofe upon whom the bills
were drawn would be belt able to explain the circum-
glances of each tranfadion.

Mr. ROSE, in his own vindication, thought it ne
Ceirat f to Rate, th it no lufpicion had been entertained
of thole abufils till the year 1797, and that a Bill had
been brought in the next year. He himfelf went out
of office in the year I 800, and therefore had no oppor-
tunity of watching the progrefs of the tranfaftions of
the Committee. The Learned Gentleman (Dr. Law-
rence) had an, about twenty years ago, held an
office connated-with the public accounts, and yet he
did not himfelf bring forward any of the meafures he
now found In neceffary. When Gentlemen reproached
Ibim about finecure places. they fhould confider h :w
far that oblation would extend, and to whom it might
be applied.
