For the printing of this paper only, it was his intention at present to move.

The house resolved itself into a committee upon the bill respecting the auditorship of the exchequer, Mr. Fox in the chair.

said, that in consequence of the suggestions of a right hon. gent. (the Attorney-General) on a former evening, he had to propose a clause, which he trusted would be perfectly satisfactory, and would serve to remove every objection that had been made to this bill. The nature of this clause, the hon. gent. described to be, that the auditor of the. exchequer, upon accepting the office of one of the commissioners of the treasury, should appoint a trustee to hold the office of auditor, which trustee should be responsible to the auditor for the salary, and to the public for the due execution of the office.—Upon the clause being read,

declared that this clause entirely removed the objections which he had yesterday stated, as arising in his mind against the bill.—This clause, with another, enacting, that any person accepting the situation of trustee, should not vacate his seat in the house, was then agreed to; the house was resumed, and Mr. Fox having brought up the report, it was received and agreed to, and the bill having been read a third time, was passed, under the title of a bill, empowering the auditor of his majesty's court of exchequer to constitute a trustee in the case therein mentioned; and Mr. Fox was ordered to carry it to the lords, which he did, accompanied by a number of the members.
