The Marquie of TITCHFIELD—o In rifitigto
. „espies my fentinients on this queltion, I cannot con-
ceive that any difference of opinion, upon any info.
toted part of the conduct of the Right Honourable
Gentleman, in his long adminifiration, can jullify las
1 objection to the mark of refpee, which is now
peopofed to the memory of that great man.—
Although for a long time I seed as a political friend
1 4 that Right Hon. Gentleman, I nevet was honnut•
ed.with much of that iatercourth from w%ich private
feiondfltip vitas. I think, however, that without
: being conneeled by tics of private friendlhip, any
man who has been politically connefted with Aim,
and who has witneffed his extraordinary talents, his
difintmelled patriotifm, and his zeal for the ferrite
of the. country, may ardently with to fee a fignal
.• fitark of national gratitude and refpaa paid to the
'Memo, of a min who has redered loch fervices.
I, tberefeee, feel happy in fecoading the motion of
the Hon, Gentleman."
Lord FOLKSTONE.—" I greatly commend the
manner in which the Hon. Gentleman has brought
. ifeiward his motion; and in the oblations that I
feel it my duty to fulsenit, I Mall endeavour to follow
his example. I Mould be vety unwilling to ground
,Pty npprifition on any particular, or detached parts
oldie Adminiftratitm of the Right Hon. Gentleman;
but, es the Honourable Mover has withed to take
a general view of the whole Adminifiration of Mr.
' Pitt. to ground his notion, fo it is on the general
view of his entire condue, and the fyßem be Four•
fatd.'l find it neceer yto °pixie the motion. I feel
' it a painful necellity to oppnfe the motion; but Rill
,my fettle of public duty will not allow me to agree
to a etiolation, which would be nothing fhort of a
general approbation of that (yam which I have ge•
nattily found it my duty to oppofe. However dila
,greeable it may be to my private feelings, yet I now
feel "Ital. bound, by a fuperinr confideration, my
duty to my country, to opp fe the motion; and, if
reel osber Honourable Gentleman agree with me in
°pinkie. I mean to take the kale of the Houle
.teepees it."

admiration of the exalted talents and patriotifm of

Ibis motion. which he cordially fupported.

did not feel himfelf as yet qualified to form a correa
lodgment. With this explanation, which he hoped,
no Gentleman would confider as diminifhing his fa.'
tisfaCtion in the vote that he was about to gave, the
Motion that had been made mct with his cordial
approbation and concurrence.
I\Ir.W.SMITH—o I declare, that I do exceedingly
regret the deseafe of that eminent man. I believe
there are very few of thole who regularly rippled
his political fyftem, and who were not connected with
hien bgrivate ftiendfhip, who feel a deeper regret
upon rib occafion than I do. I have been a Member
of this Houle for near twenty years, and dining
• almoft the whole period of his Adminitiration—l•
hare always witnefkd his extraordinary and trantken-
* dent talents with awe and with adm;ratinn, and I
mull be ready to do juftice to them; but there is a
word in the tefolution to which I can never brin
myfelf to agree. We are called upon to pay th 0 i
e:oraordinary honours to his memory, not merely on
azcount of his fplendid talents, which no man is more ,
1,.4.1y to acknowledge than myfelf, but we are called
upon to pronounce him an excellent Staterman. Had
I been merely called upon to pay my tribute of
reface to Itis great abilities, to his dilinterellednefs,
' (Haar .1 /fear! from all taxa of the 11040), 1 fhould
give try teliimony in his favour as openly, and as
loudly as any man, but when I am called upon to
..pronounce him an excellent Statefman. I mull with-
hold my Arent. I cannot bring myfelf to confider
any man as an excellent Statefman, tinier+ there is an
• excellence of ly dem in the meafures he purities.—
Were I. to enter at length into the fyllqm adopted by.
that Right Hon. Gentleman. I &mild occupy more
of the time of the Houle than I (tumid be entitled to
, upon the prefent rwcpfinn. The whole of his admini-
, Oration mutt be in the recolleltinn of that Houk, and
every Ontleman would form his opinion according
i., his own judgment. Ai for me, !shave weighed
