The tirst was the management of the Public Debt; 'ldly, The allow ance to the Ban:. fur that management ; and lasth , The Unclaimed Dividends, and Unclaimed Lottery Pritc•, remaiuiog the custody of the Bank, The Bight lion. Gentleman Ora aunt Oa to describe the sums to he allowed the Bank for the management of the Public Debt, at the rate of 3.1:1/. per million, a- it at present stood. When the debt should ba feather redsced the allowance was then meant to be -10/. per million. This arrangensent would eventually prove a sav ia4 0fte2,900/. or ti5,:00!. a year. The next point was, the advance by the Bank of 3,000,0:1W. during the war. This came loan the advantages the Bank enjoyed in possessing the balances of the Public money. It appeared from the most accurate cal culation, that these balances amotimed to something between eleven and twelve millions, from w [licit, however, there fell to he deducted 600,0 t 0/. being a deposit on account of America. It amounted in the whole, he believd, to ten millions and a half, deducting the above SUM, lle then described the amount of the Unclaimed Dividends front 1791, as amounting to 400,0001. ; and the three millions as the profit of the Bank on the deposits of (lovernment in their hands.

Gentleman had in viers, on the principal that it Was nothing but fair that the Public should have the use of its own. money. A Letter bargain might have been made, and it would not have been detrimental or injurious to the Bank. He conceived, that a reduction ought to have taken place in the allow ances pro posed to the Bank on the management of the Public Debt, as the advance from the Bank of the three millious, without inte reA, might indure for a long time, at least until the end of the ar. MR, TirnNEE did not approve of the Ite3olutions, and urged, that the Bank ought, from the public balance therein depo-ited, to take the nuinagenient of the national debt ithont and charge.

Mu.Krasom moved for leave to bring in a Bill for abo lishing the office of Surveyor of Subsidies and Petty Customs the Port of London.—Leave given. R F. Beangrr then rose to submit the motion of which he had given notice, It was his intention to ground a Parliantentar. proceeding on the Account for which he should now move. w filch was, for an account of all captures made at sea, by Bri tish vessels, which were claimed, or bait' to have reatainder in the Crown ; frogi I 19?, to the preteut dily. THE NATIONAL REGISTER. THE CILINCELLOR OF TRH EICIIEQUFR observed, that if such was the account wanted by the. Hon. Baronet, it would he ► difficult matter to make it out m but if he wanted only a state ment of time Droits of the Admiralty during that period, he thought the account might be produced. The Droits of the Admiralty, however, be could tell the lion. Baronet, Were burg since, by the authority of Parliament, made his Majesty's pm Tate property. Stu 4.it•RDETT had no possible objection to the line chalked out by the Hight Hon. Gentleman, Sin C. Puce; supported the origieal motion. Tus .1 Druc.crs CfaxErt.n. vindicated the l)roits pertaining to the Crown, as authorised by ancient practice. It had been the ease in the war with Spain, where ships were tahen before a declaration of war. These vessels were condemned to the Crown, the captors hating no real interest je the condemnation, moiety of two-thirds of the proceeds was, however, graated by the Crown as a reward for the capture. Mu. Lcsurtioros said he was in possession of a fact which he felt compelled, by a setve of duty, to state to the House. It nearly concerned an Honourable Baronet, one cf its Members. Who quitted the service of the navy in 11S7, and went to Ostend, where he got a vessel and proceeded to India. Lt th.t country he exchanged his ship for a vessel called the Ltrusco, and re• turned w ith a cargo to Europe. He went to Ireland, awl cams to Dungeness, w here he run a cargo on shore, or in other words smuggled ( loud cries of hear from the Opposition). His was taken oil' Dungeness by the Brilliant frigate, and she was condemned in the Court of Admiralty, The Captain of the Brilliant received no reward fur the capture: but ma September MO, 25,0001. was het owed, not on the captors, hut on au cer of the Navy w hc had violated the laws of his country. SIR 11. Porn 4.tr having been thus personally charged, vin dicated his conduct, in having gone to India. It was a period of profound peace, and he would refer to the Journals for the sanction and applause his conduct received, when in India, from Lord Cornwallis and El i e Court of Directors. lie was anxious at that time to acquire a knowledge of his profession, and his public sers ice, in India must have been of a very extraordinary kind indeed ( a laugh ), to excite this attack. lie had nevem been a -muggier, or been at all concerned w ith sintsgOers. MR. PEacar 41. moved his Amendment, which was for : .a Account of the Nett Proceeds paid into the Court of Admiralty, as Droits, since the Ist of January I tI ; and of the balance still remaining.
