which amounted to contempt. In a letter whielt
succeeded, he says, this power extends to the pit.
nishment for writing contumaciously ; therefore
he considers not merely common obstruction, tut
contumacious writing can be punished as con-
tempt. In writing, the contumely of expression
may Ix done away, or confirmed by the context;
and he desired the House would consider the
whole, when it could not but be acknowledged,
tn;:t much might be conveyed in the form of ar-
gument, which is a gross insult on inspection. He
then read the passage from the Argument, p. 441--
sYet limited and circumscribed,&c. it calls upon the
acuused to criminate himself." This assertion he would posi-
tively deny. :an only the present case, but in that of Mr.
Horne, who was called on to defend himself, and an uppor-
tonky given to summon n iroesses aliundi. As to the or-
Italians on the warrant, he catuidered them a gross libel, and
tending .to cut up the very roots of the Constitution. He
begged the House to attend to this passage, " Dues it not
evidently appear, that Oils piece of unsealed riper. signed

t:med. bears no feature of legality r' Theist God, said

ifiesitury, and " made it speak." On this subject
br would speak out, and say the greatest punishment was
merited; bat at present it was not the best mode ; the rer-
kaioa, be trusted, would not extend farther than a reprt-
island. He alluded to the case of Major Scott, where tba!
Kruse h ,vi .g pronounced the publication libellous, yet
thought proper to pass only a reprimand. Mr. Pitt, on tbe.l
OffilitUa he allotted to, took a particular part in the discus-1
sion, and desired the House to take it up with moderation.
A reprimand wade come with .peculiar weight and dignity
from the person Seto filled the chair, god to the feelings of a
G ...tlemaii be cosnelved it to be the severest punishment. The
author of the pamphlet bad totally mistaken the ease of Sir
R. Steel, and with ingenious fallacy bad quoted every part
.of my Lord Coke's lastitutes except the last,_ which ex-
pressly treats on the nature of Courts and of Parliament ;
and of the latter it should he recollected, that it possesses not.
the inferior, but its fair and just place iu the Coustitution.—
(Hear, hear!)
Sir SAMUU ROMILLY, in explanation,
stated, that he had never said or maintained that
the doctrines asserted in the paper under discus.
sion were not a breach of the privileges of that
House. Any thing that obstructed their proceed-
ings must come under that description, but the
only doubt he had was as to the libel.
Mr. WHI'T'BREAD then rose and said, that Is;
hoped for the attention of the House to a few ob.
serrations, and was happy to bear testimony to
the legal and constitutional sentiments delivered
by his Honourable and Learned Friend who had
just sat down. But great as was his respect for
that Honourable Gentleman, awl unlimited as his
reverence and love were for the authority (Mr.
Fox) which he had quoted, he must stilt be al-
lowed to say, that he had not beets convinced by
the arguments of his Honourable and Learlised
Friend. Had it ever been contended that the
House was to abandon its privileges ? No. What-
ever might be the wish of any Member as to the
reform of these privileges, no man deemed
them of more value than himself; no man thought
more highly of them. lie considered any breach
of the just and legitimate privileges of that House,
as a direct assault upon the liberties of the court-
sey ; and, consequently, lie was not to be told, that
ip order to support the rights of that House, they
were called upon to condemn the letter of Sir F.
Bartlett. The prielieges possessed by the House
bad been given for the benefit of the public. With-
out sock a power, how could the ordinary busi.,
news of the House be conducted ? How could the',
Chairmen of its different Committees proceed ? Ile
had himself, as Chairman of a Committee, exer..l
noised the authority given by the House, in sandier
for papers, persons, and records. The orders of
the floosie were, in such cases, uniformly obeyed,
as they must Is,t obeyed, or there would be an end
of the liberty of the country. His Honourable
and Learned Friend had expressed some doubts as
to the propriety of. the commitment of Mr. Gale
Jones, Anil thought that case ought to have
been considered with some latitude. Whatever
might be the weight attributed to Mr. Justice
Blackstone': authority, no man could have higher
claims to attention for constitutional doctrine
than Mr. Hargrave. llis -Hon. 'awl Learned
h'tiend had adverted to a private and unpublished
letter of the Late Air; For; as an authority
fur his argument. From that letter he should beg
to state, as the opinion of that great man, of
whom no titans thought more highly than himself,
66 that the House of Lords, no more than the
House of Commons, had a right to commit per.
sous, and that it was matter of regret that the
Lords had been suffered to exercise that right by the
House of Commons without, reproof." Upon this
authority then it appeared that so far from claming
. the privilege itself, the 'louse of Commons was con.
• sidered as deficient in duty for not having a.
• pressed any' reproof of the Lords for having exer.
thapowa... liut-the Honourable and Learned
• Gentleman opposite (M r. Stephen) had asked ,the.'
• ther it was their wish to go back to the times of
Queen Elizabeth ? lie felt no disposition-of that
description ; but if they were to refer to the prac-
tices of such times, he was much afraid that prin.
ciptee of tyranny were contagious, and that no
benefit could possibly result from the retrospect.
Ile must again repeat, that their privileges' had
been gists with a view to the benefit of the
reople, and should never be exercised but for the
porpose of promoting that end. And here he
felt bound to state the difficulty arising out of
the case of Mr. Gale Jones. 'They might have Iwo.
called asminst him in a far different way, though
they bad thought proper to commit him. Tim li.
;set of Mr. Reeve; Which had been alluded to by
an lion. Friend of his, had been voted by that
Meuse most libellous, and slanderous, and though
one Gentleman proposed he should bataken into
custody, and another that his libel should be
burned by the common hgagmen ; yet whilst two,
of theablest men that ever existed were present, the
case was referred to the Attorney-General to• pro.
secute, and the consequence was, that the
iitlual was acquitted. His Hon. 'friend bad, he
thought, not treated the Hon. Baronet fairly, *lien,
Ale referred to Mr. Horne, and charged the Non.
Baronet with disseminating that Gentleman's opi-
'ions. That might be a good argument as against
an Individual, if just, but would nut go for any thing
twin the general piincipic. But to return to the an.
