Ordered to be reported ea Meader. Mr. ALEXANDER brought up the Report,of the Committee, which fat yellerday on the fubjett of con folidating and arranging certain revenue duties upon Goods, Wares, and Merchandizes, imported and ex ported to and from Ireland. On reading the ara Refolinion. Mr. CORKY rote for the purport of explainin4 to the Houfe, in a general way, the nature and oboe of the new regulationi , preparatory to the dike of the Bill to be introduced thereon, and of which the Schedules upon the table were to form the grounds. He then entered at confiderable length into a detailed cornparifon between the complicated manner in which chore feveral duties as they have hitherto been inspored under different and fueceifive Ails of Parliament, and the concife, expeditious, and fatisfaftery manner, in which it was propofed to eel lea them under the new arrangement, as well ter the catisfaaion and advantage of the merchant as thofe of the revenue. Another Species of advantage would arife from the real facility which the new arrangements would give to the commercial inter. courfe between both countries. He was happy in the opportunity of adding, that he had unifprmly experi enced the zealous co-operation of his Majeay's Mini hers in England, to give every fair and equitable encouragement to the commercial interests of Ireland. It was material alto to hate, that in the Schedules upon the table, and the Several regulations therein adopted, it would be found that every with and ob , jea of the great mercantile inure& in Ireland were fully anfwered Isy anticipation. Mr. FOSTER rote, not to go into any difeufGon for the prefent, knowing that a better opportunity would be afforded when the Bill Mould come before the Houk, and when, if any thing Should occur to him in the mean time, he Should hate it. He role now to exprefs his very Sincere pleafure on the laa dechiration of the Right Hon. Gentleman, namely, that the whole mercantile interests of Ireland were perfealy Satisfied with the arrangements, becaufe he did underhand that a very confiderable degree of difeontent had prevailed throughout the whole orthe North of Ireland, on Account of the capon duty of 3 per cent. impofed lalt year upon linens, as well as other commodities exported from that kingdom. Mr. CORRY replied, that it certainly was his in tention to have fully explained the point alluded to by the Right Hon. Gentleman, before he concluded his firs Speech, but it efeaped his recollation. He would now, however, fay, that the export duty on linens from Ireland was not done away, for that it would be utterly impraaicable In to do, without giv ing the moa jut grounds of jealoufy to the manufailurers. The tax w.s a temporary one, and Specifically applicable to the war, with which alfo it • would ccafe. It was a tax to which all the manufac tures and native produce of England were liable, linens as well as all others. The commerce of the Britilb merchant was the principal channel through Which the intereas of the 'hills linen inanufattureit werefupported, in every part of the globe to which Britilh commetce extended ; and whit mull be the jealoufy of the Britilh manufaCturer and merchant, upon reflaing that Britilh linens exported laboured under the difedvantage of a duty of 3 per cent. while Ira linens. carried out on board the very fame Ihip, and to the fame market, were exempt ? To put the eonverfe of the cafe—Suppofe that the duty was charged only upon [rills linens, and that Britifh linens were exempt, what, he would ant, would bethe feelings of tlic Irith merchant and manufaCturer ? It was — a tax which, if not collated iii Ireland, could not be culleCted at all; and one from which, of Irak linens were t tempt, would lead to incalculable frauds upon the Vojta revenue, as linens of every fort would be entered riutwarda for Irifb; a tax under which even [till the Ira manitfaanrer would poffefs many ad- vantages over the Britilh ; far ant only was every . - pecies of material employed in the manufaeure im. ported into Ireland duty free, but is paid a bounty upon the export, and has an almull exchifive protec- tion in favour of Irifh linens at the Englifh market. Mr. FOSTER laid a few words in reply. Mr. ATKINS Aid, he was very deeply interened in the linen manufafture alluded to, and wa.'con. vinced the I:tifc of the Northern manulaeltirers was nut ay.:tie:o C:IC contribution of their quo , * to the fuppott of the war. By the fcliedule on the table, it was prf•pot:d to vote the tax in pc:peony ; but he was full, if the tax was made the fuLiza of a fe• parate Bill, and duly explained in Ireland, as a ten ;. racy tax r.nly, f,r the period of the war, ab ob p.‘iitans 40 it would inlbsittli cca4c. Mn HAWTHORN (poke to the fkme 44. Atm !DAWSON profeffed Waif& molt warmly In. meted in the proteftion of a manufaCture which formed to very principal a (hare in the trade and prof perky of that County, in Ireland, (Monaghan). which he had the hollow to reprefrot. He expreffed his regret, that the tax was not abandoned upon the only ilaple manufa&ure of Ireland. and upon the in. terefts of which, he feared, it would feverely operate. He was lorry for having omitted to oppofe this tax during the laft Seflion of Parliament, for he was prefent when it paled; but it had efcaped him through mere ignorance and inadvertency, under the general head of a Three per Cent Export Tax; for he thought, that every Ilipulation for the proteaion of that manufaCture had been completely adjufted under the terms of the Union. Mr. ALEXANDER raid, he felt as deeply inte refted as any Hon. Member, in the inter& of the Linen Manufaiture of Ireland ; but he was well con vinced the tax in queltion would not be felt in the flughteft degree. The perfons concerned in that ti atie were extremely wealthy, and daily advancing in riches and profperity ; and the manufa4lurers were as highly and as weU paid for their labour, as any other in Europe. Lord DE BLACQUIERE (poke in favour of the tax. He thought that Ireland fhould proudly exult in being called on to contribute her quota in fu port of the war; and raid, that he himfeff attended a meeting of the Linen Board. at Dublin, when this tax was mentioned, and no body oppofed it, but all went away fatisfied. Mr. FOSTER faid, that he too attended that meet. ing ; and the Noble Lord mull recolleit, that no dif cutEon took place. no opinion was expreffed, nor did any refolution whatever parson the fubjee, owing to a meffage received from the C.aftle, requelting the Board to fulpend its proceedings until Come fartho confederation could be had upon the fubjeft, on the part of Government. Lord CASTLERF.AGH raid, it was extremely defirable that no erroneous opinion &odd go abroad, that the Honk was about to impofe a tax upon the ftaple manufaititre of Ireland. injurious to the We re& of that manufaCture, or the merchants concerned eneo ß in it. The oi "nt to be confidered was, how far the trifling kisj in queltion would be likely to diminith the g confumption of the commodity ? An ob vious criterion prefented itfelf in a companion be. terns the exports of MI6 linens, the year before this tax was impofed. and that of the laft year when the tax was in full operation; and, the re fult would thew, that the exportation under the tax, inked of being diminithed, was molt confiderably increafed : Co far proofs were againft conjefure. Betides it was idle to fuppore the tax could be injurious to the ma nufaturer or the 'merchant which mull ultimately fall upon the confunser.—The Refolutions were then read. and agreed to. On the motion of Mr. Fofter, force accounts were orded. to Amy the exiting rates of duties payable upon Imports and Exports of Ireland. And alfo. on the motion of Mr. Dawlon, an account of the quan tity of Linen exported from Ireland fince the Union, to the sth January, 1804, diftinguithing each year. —Adjourned to Monday. LONDON.

" We have jull received the molt melancholy " news of an intended invafinn of this ifland by the " French, who are Already embodied at Cuba, to " the number of 3000 men, and are to be with us " in the courfe of a week." This day we lay before our Readers fome farther extrafta from the IA Li(bon Mail, which want of room obliged us to poßpone on Saturday. We alio fome articles received by the HAMBURGH AND DOTTENDURGH MAILS, feven of the latter, and three of the former having arrived this morning. HIVIUI, FEL I4.—A meafure enforced by the French throughout our Republic, and particularly in the maritime towns,andthetwodepartments,Batav ian Brabant and Zealand, has occafioned come alive ne gociations between our Government and that of France. On the 7th ink an order was ilTued by the French Government for (citing all Englifh entmesodi. ties in the warehonfes, &nits, or commercial boufes in the above mentired departments, and all goods which were entente.' fuch were taken away and carried to places appertaining to France. In the lOand of Walcheren. General Novo. r enforced the meafure by officers of the Co !Inure. lupported by mi. litary detachments. At Mtddlcbnrg►, Flaking. and Veere the hoofes were occupied, and arcing detach. ments patroled the firects till all the Englifh commo dities were feized, and placed tinder the gnarl of the French troops. In Brabant the nperation was carried into aid by a great number of Officers of the Cuf toms, who went from cne villige to antacr, without nI aid from tlic miliutrr I ot.ly at 'I Taut, where there k a greet manufaftory of eloth. the afEltanee of the military was called in. The Englith goods were then packed up, and catried a in waggons, which were put in requiftion, to the neighbouring French territory. By this violent Inca fure many of the inhabitants, particularly at null:. ing, have loft a great part of their property. The governmentlof Zealand hasmade a Prong remonft ranee on the fubjed to General Mow NIT ; and a limilar one has been made by the Government here to General VICTOR ; and it is hoped that the drat of theft wiP at leap be that the commodities feized will not be fie to France or confifcated before the return of a mini who was difpatched to Paris to our Asnbaffado) SCIIIIMILtENNIIICC on Snnday lall. During the feizure of the Englifb good. at Fluff. ing, the French troops loaded with ball, and paid no regard to the cries of the women and children, when their property was taken away ; the Rate of Flullainic is truly deplorable COIISTANTINOPLB, Jac. I4.—Accounts Lave been received from Syria, that ANDUL WiCHAB, bas been murdered, together with his brother. They wci c taunted while at prayers, hut he who perpetrated the deed did not efcape : be fell into the hands of the partizans of Asout WiTscuas, who furioufly cut him into a thoufand pieces. The intelligence of this event has caufed a great fenfation here, aiscl efpecially in the Seraglio : the courier who brought it has received a valuable prefent, and the Porte flatters kali; that tranquility will now fpeedily be perfedly reltored in Arabia. The chief of the rebels in Romelia, has been taken and beheaded; his bead has been Cent here, and pub licly expofed for three days. Several Eoglilh (hips of war are crnizing ,off the coaft of Egypt. The Tmfurer and Seeward of the late CAPITA Pasha have been beheaded, for having abufed the confidence of their matter. Immediately after the (alive' of the Bairam, the clefts of the late High Admiral will be fold for the benefit of his creditors. Mr. S the Englifh Enwy, has been ap. pointed by his Court Ambairador and Minitier Pleni potentiary to the Porte : he will in a few days give in his credentials. Duriag the Ramazan, or Fall, which ended the day before yefterday, no fire broke out in the city, which is confidered as extraordinary, and a proof of the tranquility and fatisfa&ion of the people. Official accounts have been received from Egypt that all the Confuls of the European Powers, at Alexandria, have applied to their Knitters at the Porte, complaining that ALt PASHA has made many attacks on their perfons, property, and privileges. 'The Arnauts and Mamelnkes, among the latter of whom are many renegacioes or difgnifed foreigners, have again come to blows with the Turkith troops in Egypt, who are too weak to op pore them. I JAN. 15.—The Porte frequently receives diftratches from the Mores and from Corfu, the contents of which relate to the Rate of affair in the Mediter ranean and Adriatic Seas. The Divan has held ' many councils on this fubjea. It is likewife remarked that the Ruffian and Engliffi envoys, and the Nea politan Clapp d'Afaires, have frequent confereares with the Reis Effendi. _ _ _ We are allured that a new treaty of alliance has been concluded between the Porte and Great Britain. but which is only to be carried intoeffeff under certain circumftances. The Englifh Envoy fent off a cou rier to London the day before yellerday. The above mentioned treaty of alliance would have been eoncludedifooner, had not the late CAPITAIa Pasun conftantly oppofed it. Mixaa, jaw. 3o.—General (harm, late Com mander of the French troops at Leghorn, left that place on the aoth infl. after having refigned his corn. mand to General VtRDIER. According to private later' from Rome, a report prevailed there, that the reigning Kiuo of Samoa* had propofed to go to Malta. Gswoa, Jas. 23. The Vice Admiral LATOOCIII Tasvista is arrived at Toulon, to take command of the fipadron there, confining of fix !hips of the lino and four frigates. On Saturday, the 3d inaant o Sir GEORGE Bow. yes, Bart. of Radley, Berks, came of age, and the event was celebrated with great feaivity, at his man fion, and other domains, in Berkaiire. The tenants and their wives, lons, and daughters, were enter tained at Radley with a ulna plentiful board, and the cottagers and their families had allotted to them five pounds of beef per head, and a proportion ate quantity of filver, to provide themfelves with bread and beer at their own houfes. Above fix hun dred perfons partook of this bounty. Sir GEORGE is the fun of the late Admiral Sir GLORGE Bowysa,who bore a confiderable part, and 101 l his leg, in the ever memorable engagement between the Engli(h and French fleets on the ill June, 5794. A New York paper, 01 January 18, fays,“ Capt. MURPHY, from Calcutta, informs us, that the new, of war had not reached that rlace when he failed, but was inform:d of it at St. Helena. A keret expeJi tionfailed from Calcutta, in company with the Swirr, fuppofed to be &Rine,' for Ceylon, as a reinforce ment to the Britifh troops at that place."
