LORD WELLESLF,I"S EIiIBA,SSY. •
rr. WHITBREAD wishe.l to know, frown
the Right Hon. the Uhl vicellor of the Exchequer,
whether there was any objection td comply with a
motion be ts WWI to propose, to laying before the
Jlooseat Copy of the lii.trirctions given to the
Iljarq: is WellecleY, upon his embassy to Spain ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
could not, at this moment, answer how far it
would be advi,able to cumply with the motion of
tho Hosionrable Member to the full extent. How.
ever, if the Honourable Member wool(' state any !
particular points npon which he wished for special
information, he would examine into the subject.
He felt no di:position to oppose the wishes of the
jbus. Gentleman, so far as it should appear proper
to comply with them.
WHITBREAD replied, that he thought
the more eligible way would -be, for the Right
/lon. Gentleman to lay before the House such
extracts, from the instrecti•ins, as he judged it
not improper to communicate ; and if he (Mr.
W.) should, on perusing those, feel any forther
communications necessary, he should move for
them: He therefore, with the coocurrence of the
Chancellor of tbc Exchequer, put his motion go.
*wally
l'lsat extracts from Lnrd Wellesley's iostractions, on the
Spanish Embassy, be laid before the Hoye."

REVERSIONS.

Mr. BANKES rose tonsuve for leave to bring
in a Bill, which the House had repeatedly skew('
that it thought necessary, although another 'louse
of Parliament seemed of a very different opinion ;
lie meant a Bill to prevent the. Grant of races
and Pen,iois in Iteveriion. 'llse Bills which the
House bal. already passed far this purpose had the
inikfortone to fail in the liwise of fiords, as well
as ailwher BM, which had origina•ed in that
Howie within the present Session. Nevertheless,
he thought the, mule by which the House was
most likely to carry its wishes ultimately into et,
feet, was to shew that it was iu earnest, by using
every mean, it might constitutionally adopt, with.
out the appearance of pertinacity, to obtain final
success in a measirre.so necessary to public ecotto.
my, and so satisfactory, as it would be, to public
feelinc, He understood, that in the other house
of parlimucist it was nut usual to entertain or dis-
cuss measures which were considered to encroach
upon the privileges of the Crown, without having
his Majesty's assent etpressed by his Ministers to
the discussion. fie was not conversant with the.
Itr4sceedines of the other House of liar!lament, but
e'Conlil find nA such principle in the proceedings..
of tills 'LOW ; yid, notwithstanding that a Bill
sef a similar nature had been lost this Session its
the other Hoot, which had originated there, still he
dustiest their Lordship, would not be indisposed
to reeitive another Bill, having thesame general ob.-
ject Pi blew, but worded in a different wanner ;
tied instead of proposing, as the former Bills, to
perpetuate the prohibition, to render it a Bill of
boapensiun of the Prerogative ham time to time.
