HOUSE OF LORDS, TUESDAY, MAY 11.

Four Bills were brought up from the Commons, and prefcnt.
ed by Mr. GREY, Mr. As, LET, Mr. Joosaas.s., Mr. Pane
rim and others, and read a Mt dine.
The fcverat bills on the Table paffed their refpeetive Rages
—there were fomc firs., fume (mond, and tome third readings.
Mr. Moore was heard for the Refpondent in the
Appeal Caufe, Stewart Menzies, an Infant, per
Henry Erfkine, his guardian, v. Mrs. Beresford,
formerly Menzies, and Mr. Adam shortly in reply
for the Appellant.
The Loan CHANCELLOR left the Woolfack, and
Paid, that although as in his own opinion he had
little doubts as to the way in which the appeal
ought to be decided, yet as two Noble and Learn-
ed Lords were not prefent, one of whom had paid
particular attention to a peculiar point in the cafe,
he fhould think he acted rattily and imprudently if
he pronounced Judgment in the abfence of thofe
Noble and Learned Lords. His Lordfhip lightly
touched on the merits of the mire, which turned
upon two diftindt confiderations, and after faying
a few words upon each, his Lordfhip moved that
the further difcufflon oithis appeal be adjourned to
Wednefday next.
An amendment was made to the Irifh Spirit
Duty Bill, in order to appropriate the furplus of,
the produce of the Duty to the Confolidated Fund
of Ireland, inflead of the Confolidated Fund of
Great Britain, as it Rood at prefent in the Bill.
Another amendment as a Revenue Regulation
was moved.
The Marquis of &too was for rejecting the Bill
altogether, as a meafure which direelly trenched
upon tLe Articles of Union with Ireland. He was
of thofe who had voted for that union, upon a
Firm convidlion that it was a meafure highly falu-
tary for the common good of the Empire. But
having voted for it upon certain flipulated condi-
tions with relation to Ireland, he fhould feel it his
duty, fo long as he fhould have the honour of a
feat in that -Houle, to maintain, as far as in his

. power lay, thole flipulattons inviolate. He was
convinced, that any attempt to infringe thofe con-
ditions would have a dired tendency to excite jea-
louties and ill-blood with the People of Ireland ;
and therefore, as a loyal fubjett, and an honeft
man, waling well to this country, he felt it his
bounden duty to refill this Bill. The Noble Lord
mutt be aware, that as it wis a money bill, the
very amendments he was about to move, if they
fhould be carried, would enfure its rejeftion in the
other Houfe of Parliament, from whence it came ;
but he wAs for rejecting it now,on the very ground
he had flitted.
Lord Hosarr Paid, that no man could be more
fcrupuloufly or zealoufly vigilant than he was to
maintain inviolable the ltipulated conditions of the
Union with Ireland ; and, perceiving, as he did,
this Bill to trench in Tome degree upon thofe flipu-
lations, though, he was convinced, inadvertently,
and with no other view than as a mere revenue re-
gulation—yet, fo decided was he againft any ad-
million of the principle, that, as the Noble Lord
would perceive the amendments he had moved
would have a direa tendency to procure the end
the Noble Lord wifhed—with that view he moved
the amendments as a mode, in' his mind, lets ex•
ceptionable than a dire& rejeetion.of the Bill, and
with a hope that any new Bill introd4ed upon this
fubjeft would be kept clear of thofe exceptions.
The Earl of CLARE Paid that certainly the Bill
as it flood was an infringement upon the articles
%of the Union; for as the duty payable in Ireland
upon fpirlts dallied from malt was 4.5. 7d. the
gallon, of which sod. per gallon was upon the ma-
terial, if, as by this Bill, only the net duty on the
(pink of 35. sd. per gallon was allowed upon ex-
portation, a tax of sod. per gallon would be re-
tained, and fo much againft the Irifh diftiller in
favour of the Engliffi one. Betide, in the fugar
imported to fupply the Ira diftillery during the
prefent fcarcity of corn, the whole duty paid on
importation into this country was not drawn back.
The Marquis of SLIGO obferved, that was not
of fo much confequence as what related to corn—
as from the prefent appearance of plentiful crops
throughout both kingdoms, there was every rea-
fon to believe the dadleries would receive an am-
ple fupply from the produce of the approaching
barren, in which cafe the Milling from fugar
would ceafe.—The amendments were then put and
agreed to, and the Bill paired, and ordered back
to the Commons.
The SECRETARY of STATE, (Lord Hobart)
hated, that by a clerical error e name of a 411?-
tinguiThed Officer, on fervice in the late battles
fought in Egypt, had been accidentally omitted
in the Vote of Thanks moved and agreed to the
preceding day, his Lordfhip therefore moved,
That leave be given to infert the name of Briga-
dier-General Rossav LAWSON, which was agreed
to accordingly.—Adjourned. • • • . .

Leave was given to bring in a BiU for the better regulatima

a Subfidy of three hundred thoufaud pounds to the

idr. ROBSON objected to it ; he raid, from dear

granting futificfies. He then took a review of alr
the fubfidies which had been granted this war, be-
ginning with the king of Praia, who, lie faid,
had taken our money without doing any thing for
it, and ended with taking away from his Majerty
his hereditary dominions, the Ele4torate of Hano-
ver. He infifted that the prefent invafion of Por-
tugal was owing to his Majeily's Minifters having
fent away the Englifh army to Egypt—that Portu-
gal muft now fall a facrifice for want of that arm yto
defend it, and that the prefent fubfidy as fait,
was no more than that fum given to Bonaparte;
for by the time it could get there, he would have
poirefflon of that. He intifted that Ministers, in-
had of making peace, as every one expeCted they'
would do when they firft came into office, were
beginning the Continental war afre(b, and, as he
thought, it would be the ruin of the country to
perfitt in this deftrueive contest, he was detei mined
to oppofe the report.
Mr. NICHOLLS objected to the fubfidy, becaufe
ineffeCtual to repel the French from invading Por-
tugal, and difgraceful to this country, if meant to
buy her off, which would, in foe, be to pay tribute
to France. He condemned the conduft of Go-
vernment in fending an army to Egypt, and ex-
pofing Portugal defencelefs to the attack of her
enemies. The war was now carried on on account
of Egypt, and this might have been avoided but
for the, refufal of the late Adminiftration to tufty
the French to evacuate that country. He knew
the value of Egypt; it was, on account of its pro-
duCtions,. a Colony next valuable to Bengal ; and
it was (till more valuable to France than it could
be to England, but it was not a fufficient object
for continuing the war. The country had been
drained of her gold by the large remittances
abroad for the purehafe of corn, and foreign fub-
tidies. France mutt exift either as the military
enemy of this country, or as its commercial ri-
val. He wiffied the latter, and to fee France turn
her attention to Commerce and Manufaeures,
rather than to arms. Inducements ought to be
held out to France to employ herfelf in there arts
as the price of peace.
Mr. GREY afked the queflion whether any part
of the propofed fubfidy had been already fent to
Portugal ?
The CHANCILLON of the EXCHECLUSR. anfwered
that nomoney had been fent within the prefent year.
Mr. Rossow faid, that by the printed paper* on
the table, a6z,0001. appeared to have been fent to
Portugal.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEVER replied,
that this money was voted and paid to the Britifh
troops ferving in Portugal.
The Report was then brought up, and the refu-
lution of the Committee agreed to.
CLERGY DISQS/ALIFICATION BILL.
The Order of the-Day being lead for the third
reading of the Bill fey removing doubts as to the
eligibifity of perfons in Holy Orders fitting in the
Houfe of Commons.

Mr. Jottirra roil, and renewed his former
jeaions to the BilL
Sir F. Bocorrr alto objeCted to the Bill, and
particularly to the argument made ufe of on a for-
mer night by a Learned Gentleman (SirW. Scott)
refpeaing the indelibility of the Prieftly charafter,
as if Holy Orders were of the nature of a Sacra-
ment. Such an idea he confidered as totally un.
tenable, but there was no other argument to which
this pip could apply. To exclude Clergymen from
fitting nh Parliament, or from civil offices, on the
fuppolition that Orders were of the nature of a
Sacrament', 'was a Popilh idea, but he was :lire
that no inch 'ffiperftition was maintained by the
Church of England. In proof of this, Sir Francis
referred to one orthe articles of the Church which
Rated that the only two facraments were fiaptirm
and the Loetes Supper. He thought it was a Itrong
argument ad allitrefine; • that becaufe a Clergyman
was not criminal, he iiii;ll be deemed ineligible,
whereas, if by his criminal condua he was depored
from the Minifiry, he would then be confidered as
eligible to a feat.—There was po argument againa
Clergymen fitting in that Houfc,Outwhat might he
applied with greater force againti Bithops fitting in
the Houfe of Lords. Even in Popiffi times, he had
traced one inflince that convinced gin that no
fuchdoarine or fu perflition had then been entertain.
ed. It had been Paid by Gentlemen on the tither
fide of the queßion, that the word Ckricatt, which
was found after the names of feveral who ha
had feats' in that Houfe, formerly did not mean
that they were Clergymen ; but the prefumption
was that they were, and the proof of the contrary
relied with thole Gentlemen. If the inferior du-
ties of a Parifh Prieß were confidered as incompa-
tible with the duties of .a Member of Parliament,
much more did this apply to the fuperior duties of
4ithops ;sand if it was'the duty of Clergymen to
be refident in their Parifbes, much more ought
Bifirops in their Diocefes ; befideiwhich, moft Bi-
flops had benefices in addition to their Bilhoprics ;
and ought they to be excufed from attendance up-
on both ? He Madly believed, that no decent, re.
fpeaable Clergyman of the Church, would make
any filch pretenfion as to the facrednefs and inde-
libility of the Clerical charaher, as had been made
for him. Was it lint hard that, whitß Prefbyte-
rians (not of the ellablifhed Church of Scotland),
Diffenters, jumping Methodias, and Fanatics of
all defcriptions, were nbt debarred, that Clergy-
=en of the Church flould ble declared ineligible to
It in Parliament ?—He believed, that if the objec-
tions which had been Rated againft the Clergy fit-
ting in that Houfe were put tingly, there would
he a confiderable majority with him againtl the
Bill. although taken colledtively there might be a
majority for it; for he was perruaded, that every
dittina part of the Bill, if put feparately, would
be voted againk • There was another objeaion
occurred to him againft patting the Bill at this
time. Sir Francis then proceeded to make Come
allutions to the effea which. it was fuppofed, the
fuggellion of altering the Rats akin Church in a-

other kingdom had pitiheed, which Inbred age-
neral cry of Chair ! Chair ! Order ! Order ! Sir
Francis faid, he meant nothing indelicate ; but he
thought, that what he alluded to should be re.
garded as a reafon against altering the condition
cf the Clergy of the Clan ch of this -kingdom- He
therefore, moved, " that the word now-be left out,
aridtbat the words three months be fubftituted in its
Acad."

Mr. GREY faid, in his opinion every objed of
the Bill would be obtained by difqualifying Clergy-
men holding holding feats in that Houfe from ever after.

pointment.
Colonel Karts contended that the charader of
a Clergyman was indelible. If a Colonel gave up
his Commiffion, and chofe afterwards a military
life, he mull begin de novo as an Enfign ; but if a
Clergyman thonght fit to lay elide his Office, like
the Gentleman whom he had in his eye (Mr.
Tooke) although it might be for thirty years, and
went into the wildernefs to perform quarantine for
his fins, and to get rid of the pollutions of tha
Prielthnod, would be, even in that cafe, Rand in
need of a frefh ordination? He would afk, " that
man," if after 3o years fince lie tali officiated, he
could not now fay prayers, get up into a pulpit
and preach, read the Abfolution, and adminilter
the Sacraments, without wanting another ordina-
tion, or receiving another commit:6°n than what
he had already received ? This Bill, in his opinion,
introduced no innovation, but enacted that which
he always thought was the law of Parliament.—
The Houfe had nothing to do with the queitioty
whether it would not be as proper to exclude Bi-
limps from the Houle of Peers, for this Bill pro-
ceeded on the preamble that Clergymen were in-
eligible to fit in the Commons Houfe of Parliament.
He called upon, " that man" to fay whether, after
having done all in his power to degrade that cha-
raderlie had received—( a cry to order)—he meant,
after having done every thing in his power to pt
rid of that charader, he could really do fo ?
Mr. J. H. Tooxs Paid be was not inclined to
trouble the Houfe any more upon this Bill, but
rofe merely to reply to the queftions of the irreve.
rend Gentleman [a laugh] Who bad juft fat down,
He had no doubt of his honourably fulfilling his
promife to refill the meafure, if his fcruples Should
be removed. Though it was of little copfequence
to him what vote the Hon. Gentleman gave on the
fubjed, as he was perfedly indifferent to- the fate
of the meafure before the Houfe, yet he would en?
deavour to anfwer him latisfaCtorily. The Honour?
able Gentleman Paid be was not a learned man—,
and certainly his fpeeches did not enable him to
judge whether he was or was not a man of learning
—but in this.inftance he had repeatedfomething of
the ftatement of the Learned Gentleman on the
oppolite fide, and to that Learned Gentleman he
would appeal. He would afis him, ff a Pried would
be any where fuffered to perform hi*fundions lisith;!
out a licence from the Bifhop ? And would he not
be liable to punifliment if he attempted to do fo
without fuch licence ? He would aft him, if a Prieft
was prefcnted to a Benefice, would the Learped
Gentleman, as Vicar General, indud him without
a Tettimonial from. the Bifhop, founded on the
conduct of the Pried for three years preceding fuch
Prefentation ? And was it likely that fuch Teltimo-
nial could be obtained by a Prieß, who, during
thole three years, had negleded to esercife his mt-
niflerial fundions ? The Learned Gentleman who
fat near him, (the Attorney General), who was a
bird of the fame nett, might affift him in the con-
fideration of that quellion. The Bithop. had the
fame right to refute this Teßimonial of approhtt-
tion as he had to refute to ordain any perfon he die:
approved ofd In this flatement he was borne out
by the practice of the Church and the Canon Law;
and therefore lie trußed that the Hon. Member was
fatisied of the incompetency of a perfon in his .cir-
cumflances to do the duties of the ecclellaitical
character—(Mr.' Martin Paid Nol—Mr. Tooke
then refumed—That' to "confitta his affertiotis, he
' would read the Canons which applied, Many of
which he had never looked at until this butinefi
came under difcuffion. Mr. Dunning had formerly
read Come of them to him ; but as he never did
the whole of the duty of the Priefihoed, having a
Curate to officiate for him during the two year*
he held a parifh, he did net feel the neceffity of con.
fatting them. After giving up the parilh, he went
to the Continent, and on his return he did not re.
fume the clerical c,harader' but interfered in thole
politics, which he believed at this day, rendered
him more ineligible to Gt in that Houle than his
connexions with the priefthood. He read an ex-
tract from the Canons, to !hew that no Pried could
officiate without a licence from the Bifhop, and
concluded with affuring the Honourable Member,
ihat though lie had, above thirty years fince, roe
finned the Priellly fundion; he Rill retained fit&
cient of the feelings belonging to that cbarader to
lillen with the molt paled calmnefs to any lan-
guage, however harfh, he might choofe to addrelk
to him: he might call him "that man" as often as
be would: he confidered it the molt refpedftil tern
that could be applied to him, and it fhould ever
be more grateful to him than any title he or any
man alive could bellow.
Sir WILLIAM SCOTT Rated the practice of the
Eattern and Wefiern Churches, and the exiting
Canon Law, which he raid was a part of the Com-
mon Law of England, in order to thew, that a man
who took up the Ecclefiaftical charade? was not
at liberty to dived himfelf of it at his own will :
that though Holy Orders was not a Sacrament of
the Protenant Church, it was not merely a civil
tentrad, but a high and mylterious duty, itanding
ea fomething of a fimilar footing with Marriage,
fee Holy Orders and Holy Marriage was ever
tbelangoage of Law and Religion, though both
by the Reformation had ceafed to be confidered
Sacraments. The indelibility of the one, refem-
bled the indifiblubility of the other; for it was
not in the power of the parties, at their own
caprice, to het aide the obligatiihis which the law
attached to either. The Hon. and Rev. Gentle-
man had confounded two things effentisdly dißina,
in relation to the indelibility &the Prießhood and
the prefentarion to a Benefice. Ia reply to his
aattments on that fubjed; he would tell the Ho-
now-able Gentleman, that if the Bifhop fhould

2,13 th of February, a Meffagewas fent to
Congrefs from the Pre!ldent of the United States,
tranfmitting the following Report from the Secre-
tary of State with fund!), documents :
Ikpariment of State, Feb. s 7, 'Set.
- Sir—The order of the Houfc of Reprefentatives
of the 14th of this month, requefting an account
of the depredations c uttmi tted on the Commerce of I
the United States by veffels of Great Britain, of,
which complaint has been made to.the Govern.
ment, having been referred to this Department, I
have the honour to tranfmit herewith an abftraft of
fuch cafes that have been complained of line the
comet cement of the year iBOO.
The Order of the Houfe having fixed no period
at which the account it requefts is to commence,
I have from a confideration of the fhort (pace for
which the prehnt Sefton can continue, thought it
compatible with this view, to limit the abftrad to
the time above mentioned. From various reafons,
it is to be preftmed, that many captures have
been made, of which no complaint has been for-
warded to the Government : under this impref-
lion, and for the purpofe of giving a comprehen-
five
view of the fubjed, I have thought it not im-
