DFFEXCE BILL.
Upon the queftion h- i g put for the third
reading of the defoorr bill,
Mr. Pyre fa id that at tirR, he t bought this
••ill had a tendency to eftabli.ii that worft tee
vieso! dcfpotifm, a military Government. The
cattle which h tl be< 11 ictrodt.i < d •.efteroay, and
the opinion of ,i majority of the lion! .howe
ver, had induced him to alter his opinion, I
; he Hiould not now oppofc the fui tf.* t prv.gr J.
! of the bill.
Mr. Grcr.viile fated that he wan eonvinc d
that the arguments which had been adduevd, to
prove the inadequacy and inefficacy of the mes
luiv-, remained alrnolt cr.tir?ly unanP.wivtl. In
reference to the words which had been fopp-.
led to have been uttered by him or by the. lb
gentlemen who adted with him, he found it
duty to fay fomething. It was not the clarac
ter of his mind to cavil about the pr exile words
that might have been ufed by himfelf, or by his
frifcnds. He, however, did ftate in the •noft un
equivocal terms, that nothing ever did fall fro nr
the lips of him, or any perfon conned! ed w ith
hii l, which could juftify an opinion that thve
ever entertained the mult diftant iSca of any vine
man being competent *nthc talk of laving the
nation, uin’> r (he prefent ciicuniftanees. He
never did imagine, that his Right Honour;;! !e
Relation could have urged a claim, to f< rm
fuch an Adrr.iniftration as the prefent, on the
ground that i.e hf-d advanced. lie c .uul only
view the prefer.* fituation of his right horr. rela
tion with pain :>.id regret. It was univc'rlally
underftood, that a ftrong and efficient Adinini
ftration, compcfed of all the principal ;r.cn of
talent, of weight and influence in the coun*T\',
was abfclutely neceffary at thp prefent Ciilir.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer hegged to
remind the houfe, thr.* in his alluiion tofhc opi
nion formerly delivered with refpedt to his per
loii.il conduct, by llie tight hon. gentleman who
had juft (at down, and his immediate conneift!
°ns, he did ncit fee any tiling tending to induce
an idea that fuch a declaration precluded thcfc
hon. perfons from forming a judgenv ut of the
character of any Government that might lie in
cxiftence ; but, as far as related to himft lf, l e
thought lie had a light to feel fotne furpiife that
after fuch an opinion as thofc gentlemen had
formerly pronounced upon him—an opinion
which could only proceed from excels
of partiality—they lhould, the moment he had
returned to office, enter ir.toa fyftematick point
ed oppolition. At fuch cppcfitioti be nuift feel
altonitiied, when iic coiku to his recollection
that it proceeded from thofc who, not many
months fince, declared that his appoint.Ti^nt to
the head of the adminiftration would be fuffici
ent to remove the inefficiency of which they
then complained in hisMaj.fty’s government.
The right hon. gentleman was, t o doubt, at li
berty to riifchint the llmtinrenf nlcribed iol.i.-i
feif and his friends, but until he had fo difeiaiin
ed it this evening, he was fore there wau fearce
a man to be found who did not believe him to
have uttered the precilc words referred to, and
to have fince atfied irtconfifterttly with thofc
words. However, he was aware that the hon.
gentleman and his friends were at liberty to
withdraw the opinion of him which they were
once nleafed to cxrsrefs.
Mr. T. Grenville repeated, in explanation,
that neither he r.or any of thole connected with
him had ever faid of, thought that the appoint
ment alone of his right hon.relation would, un
der the prefent circumftances of the Empire, he
enough to Jaftify cor ft K nee in any adminiftrati
on ot which he might f irm a part, or to urge
him and his friends to decline oppolition to
meafures cf government.
Lord Temple faid, that in what he hail men
tioned on a former occafion, he meant to ftate,
that hia Ivilh was for an adminiftration compre
hending that defeription of talent and confe
qlienee which ftiould deferve tiie confidence of
pailiair.cnt and the country; and whatever
might be ms conception of the ahililie f |,m
right lion, friend ; v hatever degree of perfonal
regard or refipedt for his principles and charac
ter he might entertain, he never did cv n imi
nuate or feel that his introduction alone to an
adminiftration, formed from the coinpotie.it
parts of the late miniftry, would have the chief
that he defircd. Of the vigour or ahilitv o,’
tliofe component parts he always freely expr fi
fed hia opinion ; and he begged it to lie recol
lected that he ftated l.isob edtionto the efficacy
of that adminiftration even’ at the time When it
had the full lupport of the right hon. gentleman's
con life! ; of Ceurfe he never could have thought
the mere l’ubftitution of the right hon. gentleman
for ;t particular member of the cabinet, would
entitle it to the confidence of parliament, or to
hold out in the prelent crilis a confiding profpedt
to the country.
Mr. in the Bi-nifh Iloufe of Commons
the ) sth June, on the fubjeA of the additional
force bill, in reply to the obferv.il ion . of Mr,
Sheridan, Lord Temple and others, of the <>>>
politior., ftid--As to the argument, that the Ad
inmii'lration is not worthy of confidence, I am
at a lufa to conjecture upon v bat ground it reft#,
Th.g, its firft itieafure, fun fy cannot be lac dftnfe,

isa tic licit# thing to fpeak upen the formation
of th^prefciit Mmiftry ; but with reg ml to ihe
queition of a more or kfs extended a.ltnmiftra
