RECOGNITION OF SOUTH AMERICA.
The Marquis of LANSDOWN, as this was the last
day of the Session, wished to take the opportunity
of making a few observations relating to South
America. Having at the commencement of the Ses-
sioa called the attention of the House to that subject,
and having heard the declaration of the King's Minis-
ters, he was surprised to find four months had elapsed
without any steps being taken to establish that relation
with South America which, in the feeling of the coun-
try, was most desirable. In the motion which he made
he did not consider himself at liberty to form any opi-
nion as to what ought to be then done. Ile had the
satisfaction to find the wish of the country adopted by
the King's Ministers. All his object in the present in-
stance was, to impress on the attention of Government
and Parliament, that, consistent with the declaration
made in February last, no considerable time should
elapse without the Independence of South America
being recognised. He might consistently state, that if
no opposition was offered by Spain herself, this coun-
try was relieved from any confined line of conduct. In
consistency with the ptinciples of liberty cherished in
this country, and every part of the world, he called on
his Majesty's Mini,ters to consider the importance of
the step they were expected to take, and that it was
called for by the honour of this country, as well as by
the mercantile interests of Europe. It was said by some
the recognition would be useless, and that it might be
dispensed with; but he might truly say, if such recog-
nition was trivial, all they had read upon the law of
stations was useless. He knew of nothing more inju•
riots to the country than to prevent this recognition
taking place. Every well-wisher of England and its
commerce must he most desirous of seeing trade with
South America established on the best foundation. The
Noble Marquis added, that he did not speak of the in-
dependence of every part of South America. Some
parts might not be firmly established, but there were
twO States, namely, Colombia and Buenos Ayres, in a
state to admit of commercial relations. Those States
were as firmly established as any in &nom far more
so than those States which withheld recognition of their
independence. He took this opportunity to express
• his confident hoperecdrigurevicause the nest Session of
Parliament, the tion so much desired "veld
take full effect.

POOL gag tbs' la"
Earl of LIMPOO duct
venhoseor, Awing the yes* Session,
regirif to Sieth Amettca,Taed`been perfectly plain,
t• and 'intelligible. When the, Noble Marge
at the subject first under estniideration, be rs
tiered that three points were to be decided. First,
tether there was any connection between this country
her States which could bar the consideration of
)ject? He took the liberty of then stating, and
..sis instance he repeated it, that this country was.
under no engagement, expressed dr implied, with any
State or States of Europe, that could preclude the rio.
cognition of South American independence that day,
or to-morrow. They were free to-morrow to exercise
their own discretion, and they considered it-a British
question. On the next point, namely, the views of the
Government of Spain, he stated on a fOrmer occasioe
that it was material, on the pert of the King's Goveni.,
ment, to induce Spain to be the first to recognize the
Independence of America, because the recognition of
the mother country was the only recognition de jure,
and until that event happened, there would always be
some inconvenience; bet he never stated that the denial
of recognition on the part of Spain would be the means to
bar this country from making the recognition. He had
no difficulty in saying, that every effort to induce Spain
to make a recognition having failed, the Government oil
this country bad not withheld itself from making the
recognition under a sense of any restriction. They
considered themselves free hi policy of every kind to
act in that respect without the consent of the Govern-
ment of Spain. The .third proposition was, whether
Ministers had sent out Commissioners to ascertain the'
real state of those districts which claimed indepen
dence?—whether they were in a reasonable state of per-
manency to furnish the grounds of complete recogni-
tion dither independence ? The last, and only ground
on which the question stood, was, whether information
had been received? He 'could assure the House that
information had not been 'received. This country was
under no obligation to any other on the question of this
recognition. The simple state of the case was, that in-
formation for which they vide waiting had not arrived,
and that fact he considered a sufficient answer to the
Noble Marquis's observations.
DISSENTIENT Peeks.
Lord lIOLLAND rose, pursuant to the order of the
day, to call the attention of-the Lords to a dis4nt eh-
tered on the Journals by the Duke of Newcastle and
Lord Abingdon, against the Bill to enable the Earl
Marshal and Deputy to discharge the duty of that high
office without taking the Oath of Supremacy. The
Noble Baron said he should move the Minutes of pro-
ceeding; upon the above Bill be read, also the Dissent
entered on the Journals. He felt satisfaction when he
saw the House numerously attended, and was also
pleased to see several Noble Lords present who could
corroborate his statements.
(Here the minutes were read by the Clerk. After some conver-
sation across the table, between Lords Ltvgaroot. and HouAtm, it
was agreed, that the minutes of 'the first two days should only be
rut!, in as tar as they related to the Earl Marshal's Bill, but those of
Monday entire.) His Lordship also moved the reading of the following
PROTEST,
" Dissesstrnsr—Because, on general principles, I object to any
concession to Roman Catholics, either collectively or individually ;
and the Bill violates the Constitution, by enabling a Papist to hold
Irish once near the person of a Protestant King, and dispenses with
those oaths which Protestants are bound to take. Because the prac-
deal effect of dispensing with the oath of supremacy to Papists, must
of necessity create a, constitutional jealousy on the part of the Pro-
testants, thereby generating feuds and animosities, most especially
at the present time, when Papists avow their intentions by language
and Ms so undisguised gm 'lx; canoes be misunderstood.
" Because to sanction the separation of the oaths of allegiance
and supremacy. is to establish a most dangerous aad abiesolos
cedent, inasmuch as the union of Church and State forms the bans
of our constitutional greatness and excellence, freedom and secu-
rity. And lastly, because at this very late period of the Session,
and at the early hour of five o'clock, before Peers arrived at the
Mouse, the present decision cannot be considered to be the sense
of this House, many Peers being absent, and the House taken
quite unawares. For these reasons, and having the welfare of my
country indelibly at heart, I solemnly protest against this Bill, and
other measures of a similar nature which are in a constant course of
progression. (Signed) "NEWCASTLE.
"ABINGDON.'
Lord HOLLAND complained of that part of the
dissent which stated that the Bill had been hurried
through the House. So far from that being the general
complexion of the transaction, he might say it was a
Bill relating to a matter which had been before the
House. He should be the last man to trench on the
privilege of minorities to dissent, but certainly the terms
of the dissent were not justified by the facts. The Bill
had been recommended by the Noble Lord who pro-
posed the Bill to relieve Persons from liability to take
the oath of supremacy in the Excise and Customs; yet
it was said the House was taken by surprise. The mat-
ter propounded in the last Session was, that it was
brought on at a late period of the Session. It was not
late with reference to other years. It was a week later
last year when the Irish Insurrection Bill was intro.
duced. Were they to understand that whenever a lwv
was to be introduced to coerce the people, the period
of the Session was not material; but when they brought
in a Bill to benefit an individual they were to pause:
the ground trembled under them, and, it WAS dangerous
to proceed ? The dissent went on to say 'the Bill was
brought on as early as five o'clock. Any time, when
Parliament was sitting, was a proper time ; but the
general rule was to proceed to business at five o'clock.
The next proposition was, that it was read after the
Peers had left the House. He could only say, in answer
to that part of the dissent, thathe should have been ready
to postpone it, had he thought the wish of any Noble
Lord pointed that way. Upon the whole, the language
of the dissent made it most dangerous. He had never
known all the Lords of Parliament present on any Bill
discussed by that House. He would say that none were
taken by surprise on the subject. He theudst the House
would admit it was impossible to leave such a statement
on the Journals. The Noble Lord cited a case of pivs•
gestation entered on the Journals, when the Duke of
Newcastle moved to expunge the whole of the Protest.
They had the opinion of 1722, that there was reason for
expunging improper Protests. A Bill, called the Bishop's
Protest, was passed; the measure was protested against,
and a counter statement entered on the Journals. The
Noble Lord concluded by moving to enter upon the Jour- I
nab a more correct account of the proceeding: on the
Bill, instead of the dissent of which be complained.
The Earl of ABINGDON said, he had entered Lie,
pretest upon constitutional feelings, without any head.
Bty to the Earl Marshal. If he had committed any
error with respect to the statement of time, he should
submit to the correction of the House.
The Duke of NEWCASTLE said he was one who
&mod the dissent. He had no hostile feeling to the
lFurl Marshal, but would rather do him any service.
He had considered what be signed true, or he should
net have been the man to put Isis name to it. He con-
sidered the Bill had been indecently carried, and would
net deny the protest he had made. His opposition was

not impose the MI, because, as a lawyer, he considered the Oath of
Allegiance contained all the spirit of the Oath of Supremacy,
which was only passed to explain the former.
Lord HOLLAND finally moved, that the Noble Lords who had
signed the Protest might be allowed to aflix their signatures to such
parts of it as they were convinced were true, and expunge the rest.
The Motion was agreed to arm. dir. and the House adjourned..
