BRITISH HOUSE OF COMMONS,
March 17.
LA FAYETTE.
( Continued.)
Mr. Pitt, in the view of the fubjeft in
which he saw it, and the single point which
he conceived called for the conlideration of .
the House, in order to their decilion upon
the prefcnt question, did not conceive it ne
ceflary to follow che Honorable General thro'
a variety of topics which he had so ably alid
humanely urged, but which, in his opinion,
did not lead to that conclusion which it was
neceflary for them to look to. In narrowing,
however, the view which he meant to take
of the fubjedl, he d d not mean to be suppo
sed to agree to many of the positions laid
down by the Hon. General. Ofthefe topics,
one was the character drawn of M. Fayette,
which the laudable warmth of friendfhip
had depicted so highly; but of which, as
he entertained nearly the opposite sentiments,
he wilhed to decline fayinj any thing, but
merely that he was by no means ready to
admit the redlitude of his conduit upon ma
ny of those occasions which had been the
fubjeA of praise. Another point which he
was not inclined to aflent to; that those gen
tlemen weie confined contrary to the law of
war and of nations. It was admitted that
the capture of M. Fayette was by an enemy,
wh,t> could know nothing of him but as an
enemy and one who the day before actually
commanded the hostile army which we were
opposing; but it is said, that he was taken
in a neutral country; admitting this to be
true, the violation was only towards that
power whose Sovereignty was violated, and
could not be complained of as between the
two hostile armies. But the principal Objec
tion stated by the Hon General was, the treat
ment with which these unfortunate captives
were opprefied by the King of Prussia.—
Whatever that treatment might be, it was a
measure entirely of an independent fqve
reign, in which we could not be stated to
have a«y, interference, either in its com
mencement, or its continuance; and to in
terfere with whom, in what pafled within
his own dominions, would be to depart from
the feledted and well-known rules eflablithed
betwe#n independent states, and setting our
selves up as the guardians of the consciences
of foreign states. But what were the-fpeciai
grounds upon which we were called upon to
exert this interference ? That the king of
Prussia had a flirted that those gentlemen
were to be considered as the common prison
ers of the allied powers, and that therefore
their fate must depend upon common con
tent. For his part he had already, as he now
again, denied, that this country had any hand
in this bufmefs one way or the other, npr
did he know upon what authority this decla
ration was attributed to the king of Prussia,
other than as it was stated in that Hcufe.
Admitting, however, the truth of the ex
pression having been uttered, it did not ap
pear to him that it could apply to this coun
try at all, inasmuch as at the time of the
capture, we formed no part of the alliance
alluded to, but were perfectly neutral. The
only ftther ground upon which the motion
was grounded, was the simplicity of tha
principles upon which M. Fayette was ftfp
pofed to have a<fled, and those which we
make the gronds ef our interference. Sup
pose that true, how Would the declaration
iffiied by his Majesty, to induce the French
to join our arms apply to him ? That only
promised prote&ion and support to those who
joined us as friends hereafter. But had M.
Fayette joined us at all, and could he be said,
therefore, to have come within the promises
therein contained ? Upon the simple grounds
therefore, of the impropriety of our inter
ference, and without attending- to the other
circumstances that did not apply, he found
himfelf obliged to oppose the motion.
Mr. Fox observing that the Right Hon.
gentleman who spoke last, had pwrpofely
avoided many of the arguments used by his
Hon. Friend,'he had contented himfelf with
limply urging his motion to be an improper
one. He had therefore left the arguments
of his friend unanswered, and they appear
ed to him still to stand with the fame force
and weight a 6 at firft. For his part, he would
not think of fupporfing the motion, by slat
ing auy thing personal with refp ft to the
unfortunate M. Fayette; although he had
some personal knowledge of him, but con
tent himfelf with observing, that if ever there
was one of a firm mind, temperate in times
the molt perilous, and a&ing to the last un
der the impression (rf one original and uiji-
