AMERICAN NEGOCJATION.
HOUSE or LORDS, Nop. 19.-T'he
Marquis of Lansdown Called the attention of
the II use to AN official paper, sad to have
Daen published by the Amer,c;n Government,
reiatye to the pretensions setu by the Bri-
tsh Government in the negotiations at
'ihent, which, if authentic, called loudly for
the interference Of p rlitment; and reou red,
on the part OF Min s.ers, "a iustihcation ot
measures SO new and extraordinary as were
t@sn set farth lntbe American stafenert
The Earl Of Liverpool had seen with much
surprise the paper alluded to. With res
pect to the authoritg BIZ which such = state
,nent had appeared, he was ignorant. He
believed II qmS5 unprecedented n1he history
OF ncgociat ons to publish any separate arti-
cles of them until the whole were eth r -
greed toor = actcd. The negotiations we're
sun pending, ard he was sure the House
would perceive the improprety of entering
into any discussion OF the subject under such
circumstances.
The Marquis Of Lansdown observed, that
1t not ONLY cbrged the Government of this
Country with setting up acw and unhe I'd of
complexion on The quarrel, from that with
winch 1t commenced, * exposed every thing

OF all former Treaties by which this country
had been connected With America.
he Earl Of Liverpool could assure the
Noble Marquis and the House, that at the
time at which the paper alluded to was da-
ted, the negotiations between {he Govern
ents we're going forward that they we're
SUI going forward, aud at no intermediate
time had ceased
The Earl IF DoncugAmore was by no
means satisfied with he answer. The recent
events on the other side OF the Atlantc were
such as called loudly for explanation, and
the British people never had 81 much reason
to demand it. They had been taught to
1hink they were cOnten ding for vital priu-
cipl' their maritime indepen !ence and i

! traor'iinary professions they bad set up as to
America, were subjects which made it recess
sary that the II ause should have more inf. r.
nation than they were now ia possession Of.
