Crown during the reign Of his late Majesty
1 including the Droitso the Crown and Ad-
,niralty which was agreed to.

The Chancellor Of the Excbequer said,
that the amount Of arrears up to the 9th Jan.
was only 8, 500 ,0Ool. and be hoped itwould
be considerably diminished in the quarter
ending 9Th April.
The Queen. Chancellor Of the Ex-
chequer moved that the House should resolve
| itselfin committee Of supply, and also
| that the gracious message Of his majesty to
that House, together with the Army Esti--
mates, and CIVIL contingencies, should bere-
ferred to the same committee. which mo-
lions were severally agreed TO-.
Upon the motion for the Speaker leaving
the chair being put,
Mr.. Hume confessed, after what had been
said by the noble lord lCastlereagh9 of the
blessings which this country had derived
from the auspicious rule of the House of
Brunswick, he was anxious to learn the rea-
son why so illustrious branch of it as the
queen of these realms was suffered to remain
unacknowledged and from what he could
collect abroad;he was afraid it was determin-
ed she should remain unacknowledged.-
CA cry OF orderly He by no means intended
to a!ude 10 or circumscibe any remedy that
might be taken accordingto the rites of the
church.
Lord Gastlereagh thought the Hon. mem
Der would have acted more adyisedly had ne
followed the opinion Of the greater part OF
the nation, who with, becoming delicacy,
declined as mhchas possible entering upon
this very interesting subject. The less It
was agitated, he thought, the better; at the
same time he assured the House, that the
high parsonage alluded to should experience
no want OF attention to her rank or comforts
at the hands of his majesty's government.
Mr.. Hume still persisted in having an ex-
plicit answer. how ministers could, out ofthe
so ,OooI. intended to be moved for in the
committee. grant suitable allowance to the
queen.
Lord Cast|ereagh replied, that had the
Hon. member'waited to hear the proposition
of the Right Hon. the Chancellor OF the Ex-
chequer. he would be satisfied the subject
had sufficiently occupied the attention of
his mgesty's government.
Feb. 90.
THE QUEEN.
On the resolution for granting Zoo, oool.
fer enabling his Majesty toprovide for the
payments charged on the Civil list.
Mr.. Tierney asked of the Chancellor OF
the Exchequer, how any payment could be
made TO the Queen under this grant.
Mr.. Vansittart said, the payment would be
made as formerly to the Princess OF Wales;
the grant as made to the person.
Mr.. Tierney said, the grant was made TO
the Princess Of Wales, and there was now
no such person in existence; and any person
who should presume to pay the annuity
granted to the Princess of Wales to any
person except the Princess Of Wales would
be guilty of an offence against the House
OF Commons.
Mr.. Vansittart conceived the annuity was
granted to the person ard not to the title,
and therefore might be paid notwithstanding
any demise Of the Crown.
Mr.. Tierney-'ro the. Princess of Wales
but not to any other person.
MIR. Vansttart said, he had nothing more
to add on the subject.
