PA RG A. ' . •
Lord JOHN RUSSELL
.said, he rose to bring
forward the motion of Which he had given notice,
relative to the sufferings of the unfortunate people
of Parga. He was aware, that in the present state
of the public mind, which was so much interested in
tither topics of more immediate importance, it would
be difficult to thaw the attention of the House to the
subject he was now about to bring before it ; for he
knew how much all minds were now occupied with
a great domestic question ; -but, at the same time, he
could not forbear bringing the case of these unfortu-
nate people, who had been deprived of their rights,
• before the House. The general opinion that prevailed
respecting the cession of Parga by the British Govern-
ment to the Porte, was, that it was a case of grievous
hardship- abd treachery on the part of Great Britain;
and so widely and injuriously did the opinion extend,
that our enemies took occasion to lay hold of this
.part of our conduct for the purpose of holding us up
to the world as a Nation without good faith or ho,
pour; so that our character sustained a great and
serious injury. The case of Parga might be told in
a few words. In the course of the long war which'
we carried on with France,. the lonian Islands, toge-
ther with the town of Para, tell into our possession.
They had been previouslyin:posiession of the French,
from whom we took them. By the Treaty of Paris,
in 1814, we wute to continue our possession of the
lonian Islands, And the territory of Parga was to be
given up to the Turks. This was the great act of
Injustice of which he complained, At the time when
we took Parga from the French, we never should
have been able to do so, had it not been for the zssist-

ante of the Pargiotes themselres. Those people were
favourable to us, and they gladly put themselves un-
der our protection. They detested the Turkish Go-
vernment, and were ready to make any sacrifice,
rather than be subjected to its power. They had
always preserved a sort of . independence of that Go-
vernment ; and it was on the condition that we should
guarantee their independence that they placed them-
selves under the power of Great Britain. What then
must be said of tte conduct of the Government which
gave up these unhappy people to their most invete-
rate enemies, and which suffered their country and
their religion to be overthrown? A Christian nation,
enjoyirrg a great degree of freedom, and attached to
us by religious as well as. political feeling, were thus
thrown into the power of a despotic and intolerant
Government, which exercised that power with relent-
less cruelty, by driving the unhappy people from
their houses, from their altars, and from everything
that was dear to thqn in this life. Here the Noble
Lord Fooeeded to enter into a detail of the several
historical events which led to the evacuation of Pitrga.
After the Pargiotes were thus driven from their
native place and their altars, they were unable to
obtain any other spot, except one which was so bar.
testis to be wholly unfit ter them to live on. After
being transplanted to one of the lonian Islands, their
compeaution was altogether inadequate to their
wants, and their condition was truly deplorable,
The Noble Land now adverted to the harsh con-

duct observed towards the whole of the natives of
• the lonia* isles, by Sir Thomas Afaitland, who was
at the bead of the Government time, and who elm-
" cised a kind of absolute power over diem, although
they wezegenersily understood to enjoy a system of
coastitutional liberty. Sic Thomas Maitland stood
in a very critical situation; but his was a situation

of great and extensive powm ; for he was at the head
of a gseat military force, and at the head also of what
is called a Constitutional Government; but although
it was. a Constitutional Government, he could exer-
cise a power, by means of Isis military forcei,that was
than what the King, his Master, could in
Kiesteronntry. Sir T. Maitland had levied taxes on
the people of Santa Alaura, without any authority,
ezcept own, and among others, there was one
which hadneverbeen imposed in any-country before
—it was a tax on water, by which a dollar a year was
imposed an every weill This indeed, would afford
a new lesson is finaoce to a Chancellor of the Escche-!
qUer ; .brat :although Sir Thomas Maitland was' thus'
rigorous in the raising of revenue, he hadshewn but
very limie regard rb' ecnnorny, for in virtue of. his
<Ace of Lord High Commissioner, be h:441 made a i
rim et wacidizary increase in the salaries of ally
'Office% of the Government; and given-salaries
to same who• bad none• !fore; and the expenses
aught. to he defrayed by the islands them-
;el ves, weressi'Much.greater than 'fie revenues, that
4 ;reve Brigaia.vms obliged to-contribute a large por-
tion 41 them annually. Hejsid no doubt that the
liovernment of Sir Thomas Maitland deserved to be
. spaken of With respect and approbation, but be

Piave Oral rise to an expectation dint he would not
• have so IkVoady violated every principle of political
a:glinting as *had done. It might he tree. that it
was secissery to destnoy the monopoly which the
merchants enjoyed of this article, but the remedy was
rather a strong one. He should nest say one word
as to Befiwsn. The Noble Lord then teed a n estract
Mins one ofdae dispatches of Sir Thomas Maitland,
in which he 'writes. with seeming displeasure, that a
,phis of theoretical innovation bad given rise to tau.
memus-and avidatuded complaietit against the Con-
*titmice wkich :the people el the island enjoyed. All

. Ica was, that dining this eituunceof the Coagulation

prevailed under it. With eospectrto the conduct of
the Lord High Commissioner, it could not be &Oat
that some complaints had been made or it at the
Court of St. Petersburgh, from which representa-
tions had been sent to this country.. 'But if the dis-1
eussicms on the question did not spew ehhee that the
conduct on the one side or the other was wrong, it
would be his duty to make a motion on the subject.
He then moved—,, That an humble Address be fife-
- vented to his Majesty, praying that he would be
pleased to direct that there be laid before the House
a Coprof a Memorial presented 'by two natives of
Parga to the Secretary of State for the Colonial De-
partment ; and also Copies of the Dispatches from
Sir Thomas Maitland to the Secretary of State, re-
specting the cession of Parga."
Mr. GOULBURN assured the House, that it was
' not his intention to • follow the Noble Lord into the,
' various topics which his speech embraced, and
which, he had no doubt, appeared to the House as
they did to him—to be wholly irrelevant. He in-
' treated the House not to take for granted the state-
' ments which the Noble Lord had thought himself
justified in making to. the -House; but to suspend
their judgment until the opportunity arrived when
the whole of the case would be before them—and
when it would be seen, whether or net the conduct
of the British Government was of that character de-
scribed by the Noble Lord—or whether or not this
was one of the many instances, in which that protec-
tion which England had pledged herself to extend,
wag received according to'all those maxims of good
faith and feeling which she was in the habit of hold-
ing in respect. Indeed, the Noble Lord himself
seemed to entertain some apprehensions that he
would not be able to succeed in establishing his case,'
for if the ground of complaint had been so manifest,
as it was said to be, could it be believed, that a per.
son of the Noble Lord's capacity, would have found
it necessary to enter into so many extraneous topics,
and have collected so many subsidiary grievances,
not as having taken place in Parga, but in the whole
of :the lonian Islands, no one was better able than'
the Noble Lord to do justice to any subject which he
might take in hand—but, when he was obliged to
have recourse to so many subjects which were fo-
reign to the case, it was a fair presumption that the
Noble Lord did not feel himself secure in the sort of
proof which the case itself furnished. The Noble
Lord had read various extracts from anonymous
pamphlets, in support of his views ; but the autho-
rity of such was at least questionable, and he had no
doubt of being able to dispose of most of their state-
medts. The Noble Lord had. given a short history
of the territory of Parga, and, no doubt, it was ne-
cessary, in a discussiotilike the present, to be in pos-
session of the state of the country at different times,
in order to judge of the character of the feeling
which had been exercised with respect to it. Most
of the writers on the state of Parga had agreed that
it had•been an independent territory. Haw long she
had enjoyed her independence was a -subject with
which he should not trouble the House at that time.
It was by the Treaty of Campo Formic) that the
Islands were delivered over to the possession of the
French, in whose hands they continued until 1798.
In that year a war broke out between Franc* and the
-Porte, and the Nandi were seized by the joint fleets of
Russia and the Porte, for the use of the latter Power.
The Treaty of 1800, between Russia and the Port;
was not, as has been stated, a Treaty of partition
but one of temporary distribution, and which was to
remain in operation until the final cession of the
Islands on the part:of France to the Porte. In a
Treaty concluded in 1801, the possession of the
Islands was confirmed and guaranteed by. Prince to
the Porte, so that there was, in fact, a direct and
plenary transfer of the Island: by France to Turkey.
In the war whisk subsequently broke out between
Russia and the Porte, Russia occupied the Islands.-
The Islands afterwards fell into the hands of:France.
Per g a was a military garrison for that.Powerf and,
the English Government, seeing that the occupation
of it by• an English garrison might prove advantage-
ous to the service, an expedition was directed thi-1
ther, the success of which, he was. ready to admit,
was accelerated by the assistance of the natives.—
After this statement, he would ask with confidence,'
would there have been any justification for Great
Britain to assign this territory to any other Pewter
than that of Turkey ? In the. Treaty of Vienna the
attritoty of Parga was not included, and all that thee
Treaty requirecc was to have the Power ascertained'
ao which it belonged, for the purpose of restoring it.l
---He denied, upon the authority of the whole history
of the transaction, that Great Britain entered i'arga
under circumstances that would warrant her in as-
suming sovereign power over, the inhabitants. • He
would assure the House that he had made the most
anxious inquiries amongst the British Officers, in
(infer to ascertain, the.circonstanceruoder which we
get posieasioa of Parga. After having- made the
strictest search Is the Office, be could rant:-Sod 2
trace in the Papers connected wkli the subject;. he
could not find a single line to warrant him in making
any other statement than what. he had made, nansely,
that the condition of our occupation of Parga
fed us in assuming the sovereign power. He then
wrote to Sir J. Campbell, who was then in extreme
illness, inquiring whether any. Officer in his Majesty's
service gave to the Pargiotes• any assurance that
Parga should continue under the protection °U tile
Briush Government? That Officer beingahen unable
to write dictated a letter, in 'which he stated, that
so Officer had been authorized by him tontake such
assurance in any shape; and from .all the inquiries
he was enabled to make, he could not discover that
it had been made by any Officer in the service.-.-
-Whatever claim-% therefore, the people of Parga,
might have upon Great Britain, they certainly had
no ground for saying that their remaining under the
protection of Great Britain formed any part of the
condition upon which it came into our occupation.
With respect to the propriety of our entering into
engagements with Turkey, under certain circum-
stances, he would say nothing at that time—but he,
was sure, that then a treaty was areed upon, no
consideration ought to restrain us from fulfilling
every part of it. This was the maxim to which Great'
Britain had uniformly adhered. With respect to the
mode of restoration, which the Noble Lord had re-
prebenied in so unqualified a manner, he (Mr.
Goulburn) thought, that before any opinion was con-
cluded upoa it, it would be right to considerathethee'
or not it was posilble to have effected it in any other
manner. No doubt it would have been easy. for

Britain to Rive abOirkined it altogether, •Ibtl
re withdrawn its garrison. From the year 1: b b
)6, during which it continued 'under the sow&
ty of the Porte, Parga never experienced nny of
inconveniences--or those violations of treaties
whiCh had been so Often imputed to the Turkish Go-
vernment. Bat what would have been the argu-
ment against Great 'Britain if she had abandoned
Parga to herself, *hi in all probability it would
'fall into the hands of'.stairie of those rapacious Powers.
in its neighbourhood, Who were ready to. 'eke ;he
first opportunity of getting it into their hands ?
review of the state of Para at different periods
would shew to any one how. incapable Parga Was to
defend itself against an enemy. Hence then, the
only other course left to Great Britain, was to keep
the place by force of arms. However, it would be
seen by the House, that the announcement that the
restoration would take place, was made at an early
'period, and it was accotnpanied by a declaration,
that the people who retired from the territory would
be allowed a compensation for the loss of their pos-
sessions. The only remaining question for conside.
ration, was as to the amount of that compensatio.
No man, when the Papers came before the House,l
would entertain a doubt that the .calculation made
by the natives was extravagant. They defined the
amount to be £600,000, and when it was ansidered
that this was supposed to be the amount of the loss
of a population consisting of 2700 persons, it would
certainly be deemed extraordinary—(Hear, hear).—
The House would also take into consideration that
the Pargiotes had one great advantage in this respect
—that the property did not remain on their hands
until the purchaser arrived—but we stipulated to
take it at a fair valuation—the money to be imme-
diately paid in the lonian Islands. Valuators were
appointed on both sides; the amount of compensa-
tion was defined by one side at £280,000, and by the
other at £50,000. It was necessary to take a me-
dium between the two. He begged here to observe,
that the valuation on the part• of the natives pr-o-
ceeded upon entirely an erroneous principle, and was
as distant from the just esdmate as the valuation of
a track of West India plantation would be, which
was founded upon the calculation of whit it pro-
duced for a certain number of. years before. .With
respect to the church property, the House would see
that it belonged to the State, and therefore could
not properly fornt a part of that loss for which the
natives were to be compensated. The valuation upon
which the Government at length concluded was not
formed upon a sketch of the property, but upon a
careful computation of the value of each article. It
embraced the minutest items, even to the number of
trees.of various kinds; and although it was not in
his power to have presented to the House this minute
'valuation, still, in that which would shortly be laid
before them, they Would find enough to shew that it
was formed •by a careful and_ minute examination.
Here he begged leave to remark, that a statement of
the valuation Of his property had been harnied to
each of the natives, and.up to that moment he had
not heard that any one of them made a single objec-
tion to his share—(Wear, hear).—The Noble Lord
had taken occasion to remark, that the Pargiotes had
been treated with great harshness by Sir Thomas
Maitland. The' instructions of that officer did not
any,means imply harshness or severity, for they
intlyAtsitted tliat therbiltish Government would.not
MatinKC,the labouring population in idleness, but
they elwald look to themselves in their new habita-
tions for the means of subsistence. It was, therefOre,.
impossible to think of attaching blame to the mea-
sures of! Sir Thomas Maitland, unless it could be
shewn that we were bound to find the population in•
subsistence for an indefinite period-of time, .It was
not his intentioa, at that moment, to enter into a de-
fence of -the general administration c f Sir T. Mait-
land; but, in the absence of any particular vindica-
tion of the conduct of thitOfficer, he should merely',
appeal to his character for ability and integrity, and
he (Mr. Goulbum) did, so, .with the assurance that
that appeal.would furnish-the fullest answer to any
invidious reflections upon his conduct. With respect
so the Noble Lord's on•vations dpon the severity of
tjsrAit,tes in one of the islands there, it was necessary
witlfssery e, ;hat thiinhabitanti of Santa Maura, de-,
siroira of bevies a canal cut through the island, had
agreed to assess themselves for the payment of half
the expenses of the work, the other half to be paid
by the Government. It was true thit some part of
the proceeds had been afterwards applied to meet.
unexpected expenses, created by the inhabitant&them-
delves. Reassured the-Noble Lord that there had
'been no tax upon wells in, the •islands. The Noble
Lord next animadverted upon thesnanner of retain-
ing the corn for the inhabitants in the hands'of Go-
vernment. It should be remembered that Sir Thos.
'Maitland, shortly after his arrival there, abolished
the monopoly of the merchants, svhich was so inju-
rious to the people. Upon further experience, he
found that it was
,impossible to dispense with a mo-
nopoly of some extent, and accordingly it was re-
sumed by the Government. The stock, however,
'was limited to a period of Seven days. With respect
to the general administration of the Governor, he
assured the Hous-C he was ready to enter into a vin-
dication of it at any time. • • •
Sir ROBERT WILSON .was always one of those
who thought• that it was impossible either for France
Ix:England to keep possession of Parga. The occu-
pation of it would, in fact, be as much an Offence
to the Turkish Government, as would the oc.cupa-
ties of Dover by the French to England, or the oc-
cupation of Calais by the English to France. - But
the complaint' against England was, that she charged
herself with the cession to the Porte. Nothing that
we could gain from the lonian Islands would ever
compensate for the loss of .out character for 'good
faith, which our conduct towards Parga had inflicted
upon us. Again, he Was of opinion that we were
bound to see that ample remuneration was made to
the Parg,iotes for their privations.
Mr. HUME, in answer to the Honourable Gentle-
mau who spoke list but one, said, that Parka .had
bon always a dependent State.. The Treaty of Til-
sit expressly conveyed 'Parga to France; and when.
we became possessed ''of.if, whatever quibbling was'
ezerciseuon the subject, it was well understood
that it should remain under our protecrioa. How-'
liVair, the only question now was as to the ansoeut of
aanipensation. The Honourable Gentleman had said,
lOU the valuation Which-was acted upon, had, been,
proPer,9Pe. He (Air. Hume) thought it a strange
diode to judge of the value of property in Paig4l

;omputiog it according to the value of
.property in
Corfu. Why was not the mode adopted niiich had
been proposed—namely, to value it according to the
average rental of a number of years? It was sald
that each of the natives had a statement of his share,
and that he made no complaint. The fact was, tiwt.
they did not understand the principles of it, nor d;d
they obtain it for. a long time. . At all events, a pro.
&emotion had been issued by General Alaitiand,
stating that whatever was the value, 4:150,000 only
should be given.-for the whole.. If this mode of de.
fining theyalne was bad, the mode of payment wa,

been. made from the original amount of the vain_

of the- payments were made in bad money, z.nd

by the. payment of the good money, were made:

denied that there had been any disposition on tl:e
part of the British Commissioners to treat the Par:
giotes with mildness or indulgence. Why was it pre*
posed to send them to Manganese to build a tow-.
there, which he himself knew to be completely ascot
and without water? Even in Corfu he feared they
were not much better situated. He trusted if O.:
valuation was found too low, that ample compensa-
tion would be speedily extended to the Pargiotes.
Mr. GOULBURN, in. explanation. said, he Alto-
gether denied the statement of the •Hon. Member,
with respect to the mode of paying the valuation
money. The whole payments were made either in
Spanish coin, or in fractional coins of equal amount.
There was no more difference between the fu!l-ntneut,
andahe stipulations, than there would be with as
between an agreement to pay a shilling and the pay-
ment of twelve-pence.
Mr. HUME said, that Isis authority.- was the PlO-
- of General Maitland, of the.9th of June;
in which he directed the payment of £IOS.OOO only,
making a deduction for good money of 1:42.000.
Mr. GOULBURN assured the House, that this
circumstance could be most satisfactgilly explained.
Lord J. RUSS .U.Z bt iefly replied. He contended
that the Parkroiesaiolwithstancling all-that bad

Mr: MAXWELL, in rising Cd'hiove for a Select
Committee to inquire into the nature of the distress
by which the Cotton-weavers were affected, and to
consider whether there was any, practicable mode by
which assistance could be extended tnehenn, felt i:
olicessary tamabei ie.* observations explanatory of
his reasons for bringing forward- a partial Motion.—
When the whole community. were suffering, and the
manufacturing districts were plunged in such a state
of misery as was now presented—Vk hen. individeals
were unable to procure employment, ?nil , found it
wholly impossible to maintain themselvese felt
that he should have grossly neglected hicsiuty if he
had not, before the•close of the Session, called the
Serious attention of Government to the distress that
prevailed:. If they could not sio.assay thit distress
altogether, they might, perhaps, devise some mewls
by which it might be alleviated. The table had bees
covered with statements, both from the workpeople
themselves, and from the 'Magistrates, detailing to
the House and to the Government tle extent of the
slivery that prevailed. They admitted that great inn-
cation existed; but they traced that irritation to the
severe privations to which the lower classes of the
community had unfortunately been too long exposed.
.He was astonished that Ministers, who had extended
relief to particular individuals, and even to the Throix
• lf; should have overlooked these frequent ;ans.—
Thesdistress which they had endeavoured to avert
-could not for a motnent be placed in competition with
that which he bad &scribed. When a motion for a
Committee to consider the state of the manufacturing
population was submitted te- the House, it was sus
fused; and yet he conceived it might as well hare
been acceded to, since, if measures were not devised
* . the relief of that populatim, it would at leaa
have shewn that Parliament were ready to listen :k3
their complaints. They were.told by Ministers th..,t
co Reforw was required—that they anxiously con.i-
dered by what means they could diminish the pivt,
sure of distress, which weighed down the. worth ...:
classes; but, in his opinion, the greatest proof tIL:
could be adduced in favour of Reform„ was the co: -
slant refusal of inquiry. When Q 5 per cent, had bet-t

the National Debt—that offspring of the most w-i -

that Rouse treated circumstances of this kind with
the utmost coolness. They said it was of no use toin-
terferes Things must find their level. That was as
much as to declare, that if- no means at present ap-
peared by which the people. could.live in comfort,
therefore none should be sought for, and all should
be left to chance. . Notwithstanding that feeling, it
might perhaps be shewn to a Committee, that means
did exist by which the industry of the working classes
could be rendered efficient, not only to support them-
selves, but to augment the revenue of the country,
or to produce even a better effectthe diminution
of taxation, by spreading it- over a larger surface.—
For that reason it was that he wished to obtain a Se-
lect Committee. There was at present a portion of
machinery which wholly escaped those burdens that
were imposed on machinery of a different kind—
that kind of machinery, one-half of which consisted
of animal life: There was a machine called. a power-
loom," which machine, even now, as well as during
the war, was met in competition by the simple loom
the individual weaver; but with this great advan-
tage—that all the goods which the power-loom pro-
duced were:exempt from the drawback necessarily
created by the consumption of those articles on whicli
the weaver was compelled to exist, and on which he
paid a heavy rate of taxation. As it was rather an
:abstract question, how far the two species of ma-
chinery should be placed on a level, he wished to
Lave a Committee to investigate it ; and to consider
whether the capital of the poor man, which con-
sisted in the labour of his two hands, must bear
the burden of taxation, since those articles, with-
out which be could not exist, were taxed ; while
the large capital of the wealthy manufacturer,
which he invested in a power-loom, was suffered
to escape any contribution whatever to the Revenue.
—He did not wish to do away machinery, from
which incalculable benefit had been derived ; but he
wished to sec whether the advantages which had been
produced by it did not arise in a great degree from
its being exempted from the consumption of articles
which the pror weaver was obliged to use,' and on
which heavy taxes were laid. It was a matter of se-
rious consideration whether capital, shut up. in ma-
chinery, should be useless to the Revenue—when, if
it were not so shut up, it would, according to the laws
of nature, be expended in animal labour. There was
another point well worthy of consideration—he
meant the laws relating to combination amongst the
workin , classes. The wealthy part of the trading com-
munity possessed the means of combining, to an im-
measurable extent, for the purpose of depressing the
wages of the labourer, while the operative manufac-
turer was liable to punishment if he attempted to
raise them. There should certainly be no distinction
of that kind between the wealthy and the indigent.—
Another point to be considered was, whether some
means ought not to be taken, by way of experiment,
to try the practicability of removing some few of the
working classes from avocations by the pursuit of
which they could not obtain subsistence, and placing
them in other situations where their industry might
be useful and productive? When, however, indivi-
duals brought forward plans of this nature, they were
generally refused a Committee to investigate them.
They were laughed at, and treated as people of feel-
ing hearts, but of feeble understanding. This, he
thought, was a very poor recompense lor those who
devoted their time to such praise-worthy objects.—
Sir John Sinclair, Rowcroft, Owen, and Wills, were
not perhaps the first names amongst the aristocracy
of the country ; but they had considered how the
situation of the people could be ameliorated, and
were therefore entitled to respect's. They wished to
rescue the people from that situation which was
likely to make them bad subjects, and to sink them
below the level of human nature. The endeavour
that had been so long persisted in to undersell other
mtikets had no other effect but to overwhelm every
class of the community by a weight of Poors'-rates.
Of the different plans which he had seen—and he
had probably seen and examined more than the
Right Honourable Gentleman, because his feelings
had been more excited on the subject—he thought
the application of public money for providing lands
to those who could obtain no employment at their,
looms, one of the best. If Exchequer Bills were so
applied, instead of expending public money on canals,
along which there was no commerce to pass, or on
harbours frequented by no ships, the benefit would
be greater and more obvious. Ample security could
be given to Government by mortgage on the lands.
'The labourers thus employed would pay 10 or 12
per cent. and they would improve the Revenue by
the consumption of Exciseable articles ; they would
at the same time relieve other labourers at the looms,
by increasing their einployment, and raising them
from their present miserable and degraded level.
He should reserve his opinions on other points--
opinions which were the result of much attention
and time—for the ComMittee, who could more de-
L'oerately consider the subject—( Hear, hear).—
lie should now simply implore the House to con-
sider how far their conduct had been calculated to
allay the unhappy spirit which was lamented in the
speech from the throne. (Here the Hon. Member
read extracts from the Speech and the Address). It
appeared to him doubtful, whether it was econo-
mical or wise to rear barracks, raise additional troops,
till up battalions, call forth Volunteers and Yeomanry
corps at an enormous expense, as a means of allay.
ing the spirit caused by distress. Not less than
4.:100,000 had been expended in this manner last
year, as a reply to the cry of hunger and distress.—
MI was not finding fault with this expenditure, for
Ministers were responsible for the security of the
State ; but it wou1:1 have been far more agreeable to
him if this sum had been applied to the relief of
the distressed—if that House and his Majesty's pater-,
r.al Government had manifested a deep feeling foe.
the distresses of the poor. Subscriptions had been
raised for Germans and Portuguese ; relief had been
given to French refugees and American. loyalists ;
money had been lavished to embellish Henry the'
Sevenths Chapel, which had better been left in the
rat of antiquity than be covered with milkhan
garnish ; money had been even voted for irn-
i.ioving the city of Dublin. Those expenses struck
him, nut as improper, but as hrjudicious—(Heat).-
11e submitted to the Right Hon. Gentleman oppo-
tat, if his ingenuity in Ending new subjects oftara-
:ion was not eihausted, whether it was not poisible
to tax foreign cooks, French lacqueys, and Swiss por-
ters ? for it appeared from the Alien Bill that they
were very numerous in this country. Another gross

.

anomaly was, that a great number who possessed
much property in this country, lived out of the coun-
try and thus injured the industry And revenue of the
enuntry. Others who had not much property lived
in other countries, and drew pensions from this COUU-
try as half-pay Officers. Their income would not
support them so well in this country, and it might
be impolitic to prevent them from leaving it ; but
relief to severe distress ought to be sought by risking
even an impolitic measure. His object in making
these observations was to submit to the attention of
Parliament. sentiments which were circulated, can-
vassed, and felt elsewhere, especially in that part of
the country from which he came. If he should not
succeed in obtaining a Committee, he should at least
have given Ministers an opportunity of explaining con-
duct,which appeared unintelligible. He respected Mi-
nisters, and some of them he had the honour of calling
his friends ; but while he had a seat in that House he
should tell them what he thought of their conduct.
—Was it consistent with the harmony of -the uni-
verse that one class of men should want the neces-
saries of life, while another abounded in every luxury
and superfluity? If the Right Hon. Gentleman be-
lieved in the existence of a SUPREME BEING, wise,
powerful, and benevolent—if he had any feeling of
humanity—if he possessed any part of the spirit of
that religion which we all professed, be would ask
whether it was consistent with his ideas of the grand
attributes of the SUPREME Bet KG that'his moral go-
vernment of the world should suffer one man to sink
below the state for which all men kid been intended,
and another to rise higher almost than to be suscep-
tible of human feeling or rational enjoyment?—
(/tar). There was no man but must feel a lively
anxiety how long the institutions of this country were
to remain. It was not to be disguised that the peo-
ple in all parts of Europe looked towards America
and her institutions with sympathy, whilst they felt
nothing but disgust at the expenses of their own
Governments—(Loud cries of Hear, hear, hear).—
Ile did not say that those expenses had not become
necessary, but it was surely alarming to see taxation
arrive at such an extent as to endanger the existence
.of our institutions, both in Church and State. If it
should be thought, that these were strong observa-
tions, he made them in order to shew what feelings
he entertained in common with multitudes of others
throughout the country. He was in a very different
situation of' life from many who entertained those
views, and his opinions might therefore be thought
of less importance ; but be implored his Majesty's
Ministers to consider what effects such sentiments
must have upon those who were in the very extre-
mity of distress, and to whom it was I:ttle matter
whether they were to live or die. The Hon. Gen-
tleman concluded by moving, "That a Select Com-.,
mittee be appointed to inquire into the nature of the
distress of the Cotton-weavers, and the possibility of
affording relief."
Mr. F. ROBINSON said he was not partial to Par-
liamentary Reform of any kind, bat to none less than
that which would make that House a rival of the
College of Laputa. The subjects of discussion at
that celebrated College did not exceed the variety of
topics introduced by his Honourable Friend. One
point to which his Friend bad adverted was, that the'
subject of discussion was an abstract idea. Now it
appeared to him, that a Committee was a very in.
convenient instrument for developing an abstract
idea—(A laugh).—The sources of taxation pointed
out by his Honourable Friend seemed to him quite
contrary to every intelligible principle, and to the
practice of the country, as well as inadequate to any
relief of the general distress. His Honourable Friend
had indeed said, that the harmony of the universe
was violated by the difference of property in different
ranks—(" No," from Mr. Maavaell).—Then it was
by the 'difference of rank—(" No," again, Irons Mr.
Maxwell).—He was sorry to say, then, that it-was an
abstract idea which he could not comprehend(A
-laugh).—He was very sorry, also, that the Hon.
Member's constituents entertained such views, and
that he should have thought of 'such means of alle-
viating their distress. If such delusion existed, he
must regret that his Honourable Friend should con-
tribute to its propagation. No practical good could
.arise from the appointment of a Committee on these
principles at any time; but he submitted to his Hon.
Friend, whether he himself would press, at the end
of June, for a Committee on an abstract idea, and
new sources of taxation. He hoped that be (Mr.
Maxwell) would be contented with having satisfied his
own conscience and the wishes of his Constituents, and
should now beg leave to move the previous question.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER se-
conded the Amendment.
Mr. RICARDO said, that he conceived the duty
of Government to be, to give the greatest possible
developement to industry. This they could do only
by removing the obstacles which had been created.
He complained therefore of Government on very dif-
ferent grounds from the Hon. Mover, for his com-
plaint was against the restrictions on trade, and other
obstacles of that description, which opposed the de-
velopement of industry. The recomniendations of
the Hon. Mover were inconsistent with the contrast
'between one class and another. If Government in-
' terfered, they would do mischief and no good. They
bad already interfered, and done mischief by the
Poor-laws. The principles of the Hon. Mover would
likewise violate the sacredness of property, which con-
stituted the great security of society. -
Mr. LOCKHART said, that if certain Gentlemen
had lost their fortunes by speculations to benefit the
poor, it was an argument against their plans. A tax
on absentees would only force them to withdraw
their capital, as well as incomes, from the country.
Sandy lams might be .Cultivated for 30s. an acre by
spade-labour ; but this kind of soil was generally in
.the neighbourhood of populous towns, mid therefore,
if adopted, would throw out of employment some
who were in it. If the House were to, grant such
Committee as was now proposed, it would be hold-
ing out delusive hopes to ,tbe Cotton-weavers, and
instigating othir classes of society to make applica-
tions to Parliament for similar relief.
Mi. mAxwatt; after a sboit reply, postponed,
his motion till the next Session.
Mr. uoagouss withdrew his notice of motion relitise to
lualleation of Proceedings in Courts of Justice, which stood
Ix 6114th of July. He said, it was Ids intendon to brie it on
