,TESM.OI,

Lord had treated them with considerable severity on
• former night ; but ►eally, be was not so convinced
of the slipperier purity of int•ation of politicises:
and it was hardly a question with him, whether
their intentions were not much oftener infinitely
more consonant to the happiness and best interests
of mankiud.—(//ear, hear, hear!)—'rhe Ile.
assurable and Learned Member concluded his
speech, by calling the attention of the Howie to the
melancholy fate of the Cortes, an assembly to which
Spain was so vitally indebted. It had been said that
they (the Cortes) were not • recognised assembly;
but had we net ourselves accepted from them a trophy
of the viclorinas successes which had distinguisbed
the period of their Government, and engraved upon
it on inscription, in which their name was coupled
with that of the greatest Captain of the age ? Yet
these were olio very men who were now doomed to
languish in dungeons and obscurity, the 'ivies of
that Monarch its whose (steer the measure was pro-
posed.
At the close of shin speech, the Hon. sod Learned
Member was greeted with very toed and general sap-
piest*, which lasted same minutes.

Mr. CANNING, impelled by • mese of duly,
rose, be observed. with considerable miasmic', to
remove the splendid impediment which the lion. and
Learned Gentleman had placed to what be thought
the only fair and strict view of the case. The lion.
Gentleman had cited many Instances from history in
which the engseement of the subject in foreign ser-
vice had not only been permitted bat reicooreged by
the Government. The fact was cor;•inly iadisput.

trality en the pat of tie United States of America.
It was bet last year that the United States passed a
law, by which thn Act of 1794 was confirmed in
every respect. The Ms. Gentleman might say,
" Aye, bet &maim did this, and this with good
►eesen—ebo had In view a commies from Spain."
Ile (Mr. Cgaeing) would not venture to impute each
ban lar.lves to America, bat certain he was, that a
BMW.. Parliament would reject with disdain any
caltpromise tainted with offers of advantage. This'step
was taken by Government, not because any con-
cessions we►e expected, bet because Spain Wel weak
and po wedges ; because her resentment, if at anytime it
might be tossed, would be followed by no evil conse-
quences. This country saved &roma Spain. The fact
was recorded intim page of history ; bet did Spain be-
lieve it ? England by its exertions might save Smith
America; bet would the Independents acknowledge
it ? No ; ell the troops which could possibly be
sent would be bat dies epos the wheel. There was
ant a man in Sabath Anntrice,oho had them sacrificed

of the argoiant which mien be founded ea the dia-
-1 raver of the Insurgent States; whether an acknow.
edged or unacknowledged power, he world maintain
towards Spanish America the strictest good faith ; he
would cattiest. her friendthip by every legitimate
amens, but not by recruiting her unties with our sol-
diers, not by • breech of faith to old Spain. Minis.'
tors had warned Parliament of the danger, and had
called ea thee for power to prevent it.—(Loved
cheer.)

Mr. SCARLETT maintained that was against t►e
spirit of the Common Law, and contrary to the rights
of neutrality.
Mr. Serjeeet COPLEY contended that his Hen.
and Learned Friend (Mr. Scarlett) had wholly failed
in proving the principle with which he bad set oat.
Hs maintained, that the ..store arose one of the re.
lotion of pear• in which we stood tower& Spain ;
and without any Treaty those relations should teach
us a strict neutrality.
Mr. I3ROUGIIAM rose amidst loud calls for
Qesestion and Withdraw. The present Bill was, be
'contended, not only not declaratory of t►e Common
Lew, but quite repugnant to its principle. He woold
new propose, if no Gentleman on his side of the
Iloilo should think a different course preferable. to
take the sense of the House, not en the question for
going into the Committee, but after the first clause
bad been agreed to. In going thus far, the Ilouse
would skew shut they were willing to restore the
Common law to the state in w►ich it stood before
the Act of the Osh Geo. I I. was passed, and that they
were determined to reject any measure which might
tend to alter the law upon the invidious principle of
the present Bill.
Lord CASTLEREAGH did not object to the
manner In which the lion. Gentleman proposed to
take the sense of the House, which he droved would
be a very convenient one. The repeal of the elistiorg
%fetes. which the lion. Gentlemen opposite had in
view, was not, however, a nweearre that carried Moog
with it so muc► fairness as was attributed to it.—
There was no equity in muting to the Common
Lair, after having acted with respect to all other
Powers of Europe for the greater part of • center,
on Statute law. The question was called for, whew
the Noble Lord eeneleded.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved en

LONDON:
rEIDAT. Juni it 1119.

The last night's presmedisp In tke Item of Com-
mons will folio a dismay in the minds of nine•teethi
of the People in these kingdoms. The gradual deft.
thong from the free spirit of oar Coustitotinn, which
bate been so long and !minion, witnessed is regard Id
the conduct or Government, as relating to Heine
Affairs, hero bragett as to one of two wrens's—
either Damns's or litrocuTtos. The division of
last night on the Foreign Enlistment Bill, Is, in many
points of view. a measure of tlis.ppoininsent and sits-
mal omen. Without the passibility of contradiction,
it is inimical to our commerce, which is the life-blond
of the State. Such a Bill, passed iotn • Ls w, would
sink the character of Great Britain es a State ; for
there la not a politician its Estop, who "timid not
feel assured that it could nut emanate frem either
the litter or spirit of our Coostitotion; and, there.
fore, that it must be dictated by a eoauew itmutucr.
This will be a stab, peoetratiog ewer to the heart,
than any aimed at the costar) daring the last century.
If our Ministers think, by a compliance with fo.
reign dogwand in psasiog this, so well debited by Sir
MACINTOIIII, Anti.neatrol lull, they shall
avoid a misunderstanding with the Members of the
Holy Alliance, they are mistaken, it will open the
door to new difficulties and disputes. But for the
present, which is every thing to a wretched starving
population, a great deal of profitable trade will he
lost to us, and no reputation gained. Ther. is, there-
fore, only left to the unhappy, aggrieved Pecyle of
England to petition the House of Lords. Petition
them, then, and try if they hale not more coati-
deration, feeling, and jedgeseet, than the Howse of
Commons !!
