M. Carmarthen and E. Pembroke, Motion for Address on Dismissal from Office negatived:
The Order of the Day being read for the Lords to be
summoned:
It was Moved, "That whereas the Marquis of Carmarthen was dismissed from his Employment of the
Lieutenancy of the East Riding of the County of
York, on the Morning of that Day, when his Opinion
to support with his Vote a Motion that was made in
this House on the 8th of February last was well known:
And whereas the Earl of Pembroke was likewise dismissed from the Lieutenancy of the County of Wilts
soon after he gave his Vote on the same Question,
which Office of Lieutenancy has been at all Times
important, but most peculiarly so under the present
Constitution of the Militia: And whereas no Cause
has been suggested or communicated to either of the
said Noble Lords for such Dismission; this House
therefore hath strong Ground to believe that the same
had reference to their Conduct in Parliament; (fn. 1) and
it is therefore Moved, " That an humble Address be
presented to His Majesty, to desire that He would be
graciously pleased to acquaint this House, whether He
has been advised, and by whom, to dismiss the said
Two Noble Lords, or either of them, from their said
Employments for their Conduct in Parliament."
Which being objected to,
After long Debate,
The Question was put thereupon?
It was resolved in the Negative.
DISSENTIENT.
Protest there upon.
1st, Because we cannot entertain a Doubt but that
the Two Noble Lords whose Removals from their
Lieutenancies have given rise to this Motion, suffered
this Mark of His Majesty's Displeasure for their Conduct in Parliament.
The Facts expressed in the Motion were sufficient
in themselves to satisfy any reasonable Person, that
this was the sole Cause of their Dismission; and might
well have justified an immediate Censure on the Advisers of that unconstitutional Measure. But the Motion, at the same Time that it was calculated to point
the Censure at those Advisers by Name, if it should
have been merited, gave them an Opportunity of
being exculpated if guiltless, by the solemn Testimony,
which His Majesty would, in such Case, have given
of their Innocence.
2dly, Because the Offer made by the Noble Lord
who proposed this Address, that it should be withdrawn if any one of His Majesty's Ministers would
declare upon his Honour, that these Removals were
for any other Cause, than that which has been alledged,
and the Silence with which Ministers thought fit to
receive this Proposal, although called upon by almost
every Lord, who spoke for the Motion, is an additional
Reason for confirming us in our Belief that His Majesty has been advised to remove the Two Noble Lords
from their Lieutenancies for their Conduct in Parliament.
3dly, Because we consider this Dismission of Lords
from high and honourable Offices on Account of their
Proceedings in Parliament, to be a Violation of the
Bill of Rights, which declares, " That Proceedings in
Parliament ought not to be impeached or questioned
(much less punished) in any Court or Place out of
Parliament;" and we are greatly apprehensive of the
Consequences, if this daring Attempt to subvert one of
the most sacred Principles of our Constitution should
pass with Impunity, and grow into Precedent.
4thly, Because the mischievous Tendency of such
Influence is greatly augmented by the Connection
which the Offices in Question (Lieutenancies of Counties) have with the present Constitution of the Militia.
That important Branch of the National Defence has
been so altered as to have almost lost sight of the original Principles of an English Militia. The notorious
Abuses introduced into it, and the disregard paid to
the few wholesome Regulations remaining in it, would
soon make the Militia a dangerous Instrument in the
Hands of the Minister, were it not for the exemplary
Zeal of those Gentlemen, who sacrificing every degree
of domestic Comfort, and submitting to unnecessary
and distant Removals from their Counties, still endeavour to maintain its Purity in the Character of its
Officers; and we consider these Alterations and
Abuses, as giving the more just Grounds of Apprehension and Jealousy, as they tend to assimilate the
Militia in Principle and in Habits to the standing
Army, in which also dangerous Innovations appear
daily taking place; Innovations which though charged
in the Debate, were neither denied nor defended.
"Lastly, Because when Ministers in the same Moment
that they are exerting the Influence of the Crown in
a most corrupt and unconstitutional Manner, think fit
to assert, in Contradiction to the Evidence of all our
Senses, that it is not increased and is not formidable,
we can have little Hope that such Ministers will ever
suffer that Influence to be diminished, although its
Diminution is one of the principal Objects of the
Prayers and Petitions of the People, founded on a
feeling Sense of the increased, increasing, and formidable Extent of it."
