-, 'fli Annual Accounts. of the Cammissioners of the tbaines
Navigation for last year were presented at the Bar by klr.
Manure, and ordered to lie on the table.
The Marquis of BUTE presented a Petition from certain
Lead Ovrtsen and others in the City of Gloucester, complain-
: ins of Agiicukural Distress, and praying relief.
• On the motion of the Marquis of LANSDOWN, a Message

Esq. a 1100111 Pr of that House, be permitted to attend their
Lordships' Select Committee oa the Foreign Trade and Com-
merce of the Gauntry, for the purpose of being examined.
Oa the motion of the Earl of DARNLEY, the House again
,ordered the production of those Accounts respecting the qu.tn-
titles of the Expenditure for Stationery and certain other sir-
-titles used is some of the Public Offices in Dublin, which were
ordered on the motion of his Lordship in the last Session.
• The. Earl of ROSEBERRY presented a Petition from the
County of Linlithgow, in Scotland, complaining of Agricul-
tural Distresses.
Lord CALTHORPE, after a few prefatory remarks on the
peculiar importance of the case, and the distressed situation in
which the Inhabitants of Birmingham were placed by the pres-
sure of the times, presented a Petition from the Chamber of
' Commerce in that town, praying for the adoption of some
legislative measarektoirards their relief.
These 'Petitions were ordered to lie on the table.
THE SECRET COMMITTEE.
The Order of the Day having been read for the
House proceeding to ballot for the Secret Comniittee,
which had been agreed to on the preceding night,
Lord KENYON rose and said, that with the ques-
tion then before the House, the honour and tranquil-
lity of the nation was so intimately connected, and
it involved interests so high, and considerations so
important, that. it would be desirable, if the nation
was m t driven to the distress of pursuing' it to an
extremity. The House had, no doubt, concurred in
Ithe measure proposed last night, but it Was still open
to their Lordships to prevent that measure being
• acted upon to the full extent. It was his own opi-
nion, the./ upon this subject his Majesty had been
fitly advised. The measure was the only one that
could with propriety have been adopted : it was the
only one consistent with justice and delicacy to the
parties—the only wise and correct course: yet, as it
was entertained only upon the dire necessity of the
case, he had a hope, he could not say whether it was
a well-founded one or not, that all calamitous con-
sequences might be averted. He would, therefore,
suggest, that the determination which their Lord-
ships had come to yesterday should be suspended
until a future day. It would be of essential import- •
ante indeed if the information which on this subject
bad come under the Royal eyes, could be prevented
from obtaining any further notoriety, and if the
knowledge of- facts, which Were to go before the
Committee, could be kept from a wider sphere of
communication. He hoped that there was still room
for conciliatory measures, and he trusted that their
Lordships would not less indulge in that hope than
the other House had done. It the Committee was
appointed by ballot, the House_would still have to
determine whether it ought to proceed any farther in
the present instance. He was sure that, as far as a
spirit of conciliation was consistent with public duty,
it would•be acted upon, and, in consequence, no
immediate inquiry could take place ; but a little
time must be allowed. He could not see the neces-
sky, under the circumstances, of appointing the.
Committee until an opportunity had been given to;
try ihe efficacy of conciliatory measures :—if they
failed, then the House must pursue *the course to
-which necessity compelled it. lie concluded by
' tioving—,, That the ballot for the Secret Commit-
tee be postponed to Monday."
The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, he was not aware
of any circumstance, nor had any fact conic to his
knowledge, which ought to have the effect of pre-
venting the ballot from proceeding. When the
house should have forined the Committee, it would
be then competent for it to decide on what day it
ought to meet. He had no objection to deferring
the meeting till Tuesday next, if anything further
happened which might make another postponement
necessary, which, he observed, was not very likely ;
then it was in the power of the House to act accord.
ingly. He would therefore propose that the House
should proceed with the ballot, and after the forma-
tion of the Committee, should fix its first day of
nieeting for Tuesday next.
The Marquis of LANSDOWN observed, that
what had fallen from both the Noble leAds who had
preceded him, shewed that they were no longer con-
vinced of the propriety of what they had advised and
voted for yesterday. It was then urged,. that the ease
could not be done adequate justice to but by an im-
mediate inquiry; but now they were for an adjourn-
ed ballot, or a delayed Committee. He did not rise
to oppose either, but of the two he would prefer that
proposed by the Noble Baron (Kenyon) as most con-
sistent, or rather least inconsistent with the character
and dignity of the House ; but then he would offer
no opposition to the motion of the Noble Earl (Li-
verpool), partaking, as he did, of the anxiety enter.
rained by several Members of thit House, and of a
great number of the other, ,as the proceedings of
the other House shewed. He was willing to accede
to any correct measure which would extricate both
Houses from the difficult, embarrassing, and painful
situation in which they were placed. The situation
in which the Noble Baron had acknowledged. the
House to stand at present, and. the measure proposed
by the Noble Earl, afforded some illustration as to
the propriety of the course which he (Lord Lansdown)
bad suggested on the preceding night. He had then
-endeavoured to press upon the Noble Earl the impos
sibility of knowing what view of the subject the
