Lord Holland gave notice, that as loon
as the diicui7ion on the De6nitive Treaty
fbould be concluded, he would bting tof-
ward that motion, which he had annoua-
ced his intention Of doing before the Chrltt-
mas, reccfs, namely, TO move. tor . vote
of cenfura on thofs hiiniaers who had III,
yolrea the oeuntry in the late war, and
who had re.ufad to lifen to the oyertures
of the Fire Con(ll of. France, when he
propoced TO treat for peace with this coun-
sry. He hoped that as the Houle had ap-
proved of the Peace made by the preient.
MiniGess, it could not in reafon oPpole
motion for cenluring thole who had retu!ed
TO make peace. ,.. -. .'-. ..
=. PRINCE OF ORANGE. ..: 3D..
The Earl of CARLISLE, role, Puriuant
10 notice he had given, to call the at
tension of the Houic to the deplorable Fl,
tuation in which the late Stakeholder OF
Holland and his family were left, in con-
feousnce of the lhameful delertion of his
irterefs on the part Of Great Britain /;
after the numberlefs inhances Of friendlhiP
which he had ihewn towards Great Britain,
and after having continued as her faithful
ally until he was driven out of his own
country. Degrading as the Dehnltive
Treaty was to this country, and fraugh'
as it was with mitchell and ruin, there
was no part of it more dilgraceiul than
tho. by which the luxurious Houie in que(,
,ion was pancd owe: without any kind Of
fiipulation that could iecure to it CON-
penfation for its loGes, or relieve it from
the diRreiIes it was now involved in. On
this fubjett he could not view the conduit
of.Adminitration in any other light than
that of low fwindling trick, by which
the Prince of Orange had been deprived of
his property. After having coded to
Great Britain comfortable pohe!!ions in the
Ealt and Welt Indies, after theic having
been in manner kept in trua fer him,
they were all at once given up to the
French, or the Batavian Republic (for it
was all the iame) as the price of an inglo-
,ious Peace; and for all thele poHeiiions
for the immcnle property he pofielled in
Holland, ana which had been confiloated
avowedly en- account Of his attachment to
this Countrywide Prince of Orange was to
receive no other compensation than pro-
mife made by France that he ihould be in
Identified. TIE indignity and iniult Of
fered him, even in the manner in which
he was defrribej, was point that ought
not to be pad:d over withou. notice.
This was ininit added to Injury, and no
chance left him of recovering any part of
his property. Where was this indeu'-
nifty to come froms 1t was already
agreed upon between Holland and France
that the former lhould pay nothing, al.
though The was in poGedion Of all the pro-
perty belonging to the Prince. The To-
Identification could not come from Spain.
There was little chance OF its being obtain.
ed in France or Germany. II was the
bounden duty of his majety's government
60 have afcertainea even the iources from
which this was to come. He was happy
to hear the noble Secretary of State declare
ON the preceding evening that he was dif-
appointed with regard TO the Prince Of
Orange. The declaration did credit to
his heart, and was proof at leat that the
iutice of that Princes claim was ackuow-
lodged by government. His lordihip then
adver:cd to thcfcparate Convention fecrct-
ly entered into by the French anl B,tavi-
an riniters in private corner of the room,
at the very moment when the noble Mar

now was if poaiblc, to obtain copy OF
