ON TH R UNION WITH IRELAND. HOUSE of COMMONS, 'jjnu.-.Rr 31, 1799. Non ego necTeucros Italos parcrc jubcho, Nec mihi rcgna peto, paribus fe legibus ambx lnve&se sterna in fcedera mittant. Pox"... Wood Bernard Warrell 'Varrei^ Downii That is the true principle which I hope we (hall equally bear in mit.d, aiid which I hope will lay aside all mistaken notions of national pride, and induce us bolii to fnp port that cause which hitherto too much la bour has been employed to oppose and ob (truft. I have itaud the general motives for the measure.. but there are two other ob jections of.which I mutt take notice—there 19 a general notion that this measure will occalion the evil of a great number of ab fentces from Ireland. I think that this is a difildvantage that will be more thar. lup plied in otlur respects, and indeed , much more than counterbalanced, by the iiicreafe oT wealth, which might take place in Ire land by the introduction of £ritilh Capital ; which will improve the commerce and the agriculture of ttie whole kingdom, and give to the inhabitants a turn for indultry,which lead to that quietness which the country wants. Ii will give to the people of Ire .land an improved example of society where the higheltand the loweit will be identified 111 intermit tor the l'afety ot tbe community; an example ot an uniform gradation of life without a chafni in the whole society ; the whole being a.series of interests depending upon each -other for the l'afety ot the whole. I think that this will inorp than counterba lance the disadvantage of abfenteqs—betides, although the parliament ihould remove from Dublin, yet Dublin will continue to be the feat of education j it will have the fame Com merce,'and in fomc refpedls its commerce will be improved ; it will alio be the feat of justice, where will be difeulL-d all the ques tions cor.cjrning property, which will be the more numerous as the nature of the property will alter by the introduction of so much ca-' pital in trade ; so that the very refpeetable body of the bar will find their bulinefs increas ed inltead. of being diniibilhed. Nor Will .the feat of tbe imperial parliament be out of the reach of him who is fired.with the am; 'bition of lignalizing his talents in the service of his country in the Senate : therefore 1 fay, when additional wealth, additional se curity anji the other advantages are taken in to confide ration; the fade wdl preponderate very much in favour of the Union. Letthofe who doubt this loek at Scotland—look at the metropolis, of that country. —What Ims been the vault of the Union there :—an Union, give rne leave to lay, as much oppo sed, (and by much the fame arguments, pre judices and misconceptions, by creating tbe fame alarm, and, few a time, producing the fame effects, as have appealed in this cafe) I fay as much opposed as this has b«jn the cafe here. What was the result ' Edinburgh had, as Dublin will have, its trade, its feat of education, its courts of jukice. Edin burgh has, lince that period, doubled its po pulation. Well, but Edinburgh had advan- "" tiardingc, W^n-ll Warrcll,jun ivlr Warrell, jnn, tages peculiar to itic#. Why then let us fee how the matter Hood in another part of Scotland : at Gla%ow, for inftanse, here the population has increal'«i in the proportion of five or fix to one : I lay there is no ground for apprehending that the cafe -will not be the lame in Ireland. There remains more general argument, and that is, that tiie loss of their parliament will be the lots of the protettion to their commerce ; to which I ai.fwer, that that conjedure is mainly im probable ; that at prefect they.have the great est advantages they poller Is, not fr<Jin their own parliament, but from the mere fiilcre tion 'of the parliament of this country ; and that that which has been granted them in that condition, and separate from us, is not liktlv to be taken away from them when we become united ; that it has never been the policy or cliaradfer of the Britilh legifl.iture to treat its united friends with any narrow ness of policy ; and that the north of Bri tain, although it<has only 45 member* i* this house, and we . are 513, has never found its interelts negle&ed ; there arc thole indeed who aflei't it has more than its due tliare of favour—l do believe that allegations of that kind are exaggerations, and that the legisla ture has attended alike to ail parts of the Britilk empire : but be that as it may, there is nothing more clear than that the Union has produced the greatest of all political blelhngs to Scotland, as I contend it will to Ireland; and that this meafurc will be seen in that light if the clouds of prejudice are difnuffed. Another ground of alarm ii, that when Ireland is united to us, it will be made fubjett to the debt of Great Britain, and that it will draw upon her all gut al ledged aifHcult.es and supposed neceliities. It js not the policy of this -country to ask for Union upon pecuniary motives. Have we done so with regard to Scotland ?—Has any jealousy existed that Scotland was ever made to bear riiore than its due share of the public burdens, when we conlider the (hare it has of* the advantages of the In truth, our taxation, like all the other practical effects of our conflitution, is founded upon the principles of justice. But, in the event of parliament 2grteing to this ineafure, I should propofc that, for a gi ven number of years, the scale of taxation for Ireland should be so fixed as not to ex ceed any reasonable bounds to be agreed up on by both parliaments ; and that at no time Ihould Ireland be taxed beyond the propor tion at whisk we fhculd find it neces sary to tax ourselves. The details are not now to beconfidered, but if I hate- fuc ceedcd in {'.lowing that the general policy of Xf)t Mr. PITT's SPEECH, CONCLUDKD. ../them baft ire is good, the hoiife wilt agree with me it will be proper that the measure Ihould be recorded, and presented to ihi par liameht of Ireland, and left with ttie 111 to Jtidge whether tfiey its such- as they will ai&nt to» I think the y are ncceffary f» the peace and happiness of the peopl? of Ire -I'aud m particular, as well as conducive to the general welfare 'of the empire. , I ftiaf! not enter,into any particular detail now, un- lets fome»gentlemen jhouldbefire it. How ever, to avoid objections, J. will read, as p/rt of my speech, the l'ublhince of what I mean to move by way of re feint; or.?—the which, if the house rtiould agree to, I lliould ptppole laying at the foot of the throne*.to be presented to the parliament of Ireland when tWey are more likely than at present to meet the .general concurrence there ;—in deed that this fbotild be left to the wisdom of I lis Majrlly, whose parental J'Ticitude for the welfare of his dominions w ill induce his niiijeliy to present it in 4ue season. Upon tliefe grounds I thall propose the following reso lutions : I. 'l'hat in order to ptomote and secure the eIT-ntial inteieft of .Great Britain and Ireland, and to conl'olidate the (trength, power, and rcfources of the British empire, it v.'il| be adviteable to concur in j'uch mea sures as may heft tend to unite the Two kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland, in to one kin gdom, in such manner, and on such terms and conditions as may be efta blittvcd by acts of the respective parli aments of his maje ftv's said kingdi^ns. 11. That it appearj to this committee that it would be ht to propose, as the firft ar ticle, to serve as a balis of the said union, That the said kingdoms of Great Britain and Ireland fliall, upon a day to be agreed upon, be united into one kingdom, by the name of Tbe United Kingdom of Great Bri \ tain and -Ireland. 111. That for the lame purpose it appears -also to this committee that it would be fit to proppfc) That the succession to the monar chy and the imperial crown of tfre Fajd unit ed kingdom lliall continue limited and fettled in the fame manner as the imperial crown of the said kingdoms of Great Britain and Ire land now Hands limited to the ex isting laws. a;id to tlic terms of the union be tween lingland a ltd Scotland. 'IV. That for the fame ptirpofe it appears also to this committee th:*«t it would be fit to propose, That the said united kingdom be rrprefented in one and the iame parliament, to be ftiled, Tfbe Vurliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland ; and that such a number of lords spiritual and temporal, and such a number of members of the house of commons, as (hall be'hereafter agreed upon by ad'ts of the refpettive parlia ments as aforefaid, (hall lit and vote in the laid parliament on the part of Ireland, and shall be fummoaed, chofeti, and returned ia i'tich manner as (hall be fixed by aft of parli ament of Ireland previous to the said union ; and that every member hereafter to fit and vote ih the laid parliament of the United Kingdom, shall, until the said parliament shall cthenvife provide, take and fublcribi* the fame oath, and make the fame declarati ons as a'ri by la\V required to be taken, f'ub fcribed, and made by the members of the parliament of Great Britain and Ireland. V. That for the fame purpose it appears alfoto this comi>»i:tee that it would be fit to propose, that the churches of England and Ireland, and the dodhine, worship, diicipline and government thereof, {hall be preserved as now by law established. VI. That for the fame purpose, it appears also to this committee th:;t it would be fit to propoie, That hi? majesty's fubjedts in Ire land, Hull at ".!! times hereafter be entitled to the faille privileges, and be on the fame looting in rclpeft to trade and navigation in ail ports and places belonging to Great Bri tainy and in all cases with refpsft to .vhich treaties shall be made by his majesty, his heirs, or fuccelTors, with any foreign power, or his m;j. sty's in Great Britain. That no duty flial. he imposed on the import or export between Great Britain and Ireland of any articles now duty free, and that on other articles there shall be established, for a time to l>e limited, fueh a moderate of equal duties, as lh,ill. previous to the union, be agreed upon and improved by the respec tive parliaments : fubjeQ after the expirati on of ftich limited time, to be diminished equally with refpeft to both kingdoms ; but 111 no cgfe tobs inerealed: That all ar ticles which may at any time hereafter be imported into Great Britain from foreign parts, (hall be importable through either kirg dom into the Other, fubjeft to the like duties jand regulations as if the fame v/ere import ted dire&ly from foreign parts. That where any articles, the growth, produce, or manu facture of cither kingdom, or fubjeft to any internal duty in one kingdom, such counter vailing duties (over and above any duties or import to be fixed as aforefaid) (hall be rmpofed as (hall be necessary to prevent any inequality in that refp«&. And that all o ther matters of trade and other than the foregoing, and that such ethers as" may before the. union be specially agreed upon for the due eucouragemeut of the agri culture 3i»d mauufaftares of the refpc&ivc kingdoms, shall jemain to be regulated from time to time by the united Parliament. VII. That for the like purpose it would be. fit to propose, That the charge arifi: g from the payment of the interelt, fund, for the reduftion of th.- principal o: the debt incurred iu either ki>gclom befor* the Union, (hall continue to be separately defrayed by Great Britain and Ireland ref pe&ively ; that lor a number of years to be limited, the future ord : nary expencis of ihe Uni eu Kingdom in peace or war, shall be 'defrayed by Great Britain and Ireland, 1 jointly, accordi: sr to luch proportions as I fhail be ellabtifhed by t! e • relpeftive parlia ments previ iu; to the union j that after the k-xpiraiio'.i of 'he time o e {'• lim ted, the pi portion lhailr.i t be liable to be vari ed, ixrept accordi g to luch rules and prin ciples as Shall he in like owner agreed upon previous in the Union. Vill. Thattor the likepurpofe, it would be fit to propose, That all laws in at" the time of tl>e trim, and all the courts of civil or tcck'fi iftical jui ifdiftions withfn the refptili'-e kingdoms, thai! remain as now by law ellabiifhcd within the fame, fubjeft on . ly to such alterations or regula.tions from time to time, as citcumllances may appear to the Parliament of the United Kingdom to require. That the foregoing refutations be laid be fore his majesty, with an humble address, a (Turing his majesty that we have proceeded with the utmolt attention to the considera tion of the important odjedts recommended to us in his majesty's gracious meflage. That we entertain a firm persuasion that a complete and entire Union between Great Britain and Ireland, founded on equal and liberal principles—an the similarity of lawß, constitution, and government, and a sense of mutual imerefts and affections, by promo, ting the security, wealth, and commerce of their refpe&ive kingdoms, and by allaying the diftraftioHS which have unhappily pre vailed in Ireland, mull afford frefli means of opposing at all times an effectual refinance to tljf deftru&ive proje'fts of our foreign and domestic enemies and mult tend to confirm and augment the {lability, power, and re» sources of the empire. Impressed with these confid.rations, we feelit our duty .humbly to lay before Itia m*. jc fly such propositions as appear to u».bcs calculated to form thebafis of such a fettle ment r leaving it to liis majesty's wisdom, at such time and in such manner as hia majesty in fail parental solicitude for the happiness of his peopls, fliall judge fit, to comir.u.>i cate thofcpropofiuonf, to his parliament of • Inland, with whom we fliall be at all time* ' ready to concur in alt such measures as may be fousd most cpnducive to the acco.-np'.i(h ment of this great and salutary work. Arid we trust that after full and maiure co' fics lation, such a feulement may be framed and established by the deliberative coiifent of the parliaments of both ki • gdoms, as may be conformable to the sentiments, withes and real intcreih -ffcis mdjt sty's fu'thfu! fnf jed• in Great Britain ar.d Ireland, ai d may unite theifl inseparably in the full of the bleflingb of our free and invaluable con- ilitution, in the r uppurt of the horour and dignity of his majesty s crown, and in the preservation and advancement of the welfare ant? prosperity of the whole Britilh empire. This is tliefubftanc! of thead refsl fhotild propose to accompanv the measure—a uica lure which I think will conduce to the wel. fare of the British Empire at large. With a view of dilcuffinjr the fubjeft regul rly, I (hall now move «' That his iVlajeity's Gra cious Message be referred 'a the onfi era- ion of a Committee of the whole House."

" llis mujtfty is persuaded tb.it the un remitting industry with which cur ebemics perfeverein their avowed deiigAof effecting the separation of Irehi id from this kingdonj, cannot fail to engage the particular atten tion of Parliament; and his majesty recom mends it to this lioufe to conlider of the inoft effectual means of countera&ing and final'y defeating this Sefign, and he trufls chat a review of all the circumftaHCes which have recently occurred, (joined tp the senti ment of mutual i.ffeftion and common in tcreft) will difpofc the parliament of both kin donis to provide in the manner which they (hall judge mod expedient for fettling fach a ciSTr.plete and firal adjustment as may tend to improve and perpetuate a connexion efiential for their common security, and to augment andcoiifolidatc the flrength, power and resources of the Britilh empire. G. 11." The multip'ied ails of aggrefiion which the French has allowed to take place, and even openly carried into execu tion, againfl: a pretended Ally, would have long ago brought on the prolecution of an open war between France and the United States, Were not the Navy of the former an nihi'lated, and that of the latter oi:ly in its infancy. The hypocritical atfeftstion of a pacific disposition, at the fame time that ho. (tile meafmes are carried on, affords a flri. king inltanc'e of the perfidy of the Execu tive Government of Fiance, and is exposed in its true colours in the admirable fptech delivered by the President of tie United States to both Houles of Congress. The necefiity of extending and invigorating the measures of defence on the part of Am rica and of obtaining a full redress of the grievan. ccs which have occalioned the rupture be tween both powers, forms the Irading con sideration of this speech, which is not less remarkable for the wifdftm and vigour of the means it recommends, than for dignity and moderation of language.
