He trußed however that the Hon. Baronet would not have any objeCtion to letting them lie on the Table till the Bills found e d on hi s R e f o l u - ' tions fhould be before the Houfe. That it appeared to him to be the mon convenient time for difcuffing them, and he hoped to be able, in a very few days, to prefent there Bills to the Houfe.

Navy 95411 Confols for April 6/11 A Dutch journal of Wednefday cr Thurfc !aft is reported to have been received by a mercantile houfe in the City, which contains the 56th Bulletin o f the French army. This Bulletin relates to the ac tion of the 4th ult. and claims the vi&ory for the Fiend), but does not reprefent the number of pri toners and cannon taken to be fo great as Hated in the P?fin Gazette. We have not teen the Dutch paper alluded to, nor do we know by what houfe it has been received. Difpatches were yenerday received by Government from Mr. PIERRIFOIN T, and from the Marquis of DOUGLAS, at Sr. Peter!burgh. The latter are dated the loth of February.—The fubnance of them we nndernand to be an earneft recommendation on the part of Lord Hurcminson, feconded by a dire& Imperial Communication, that a fpeedy and liberal affittance fhould be given to the King of Pett;sta.— The fame report adds, that from the lois of its ma viines, and its rapid and fudden retreats, the army of his Pruffan Majelty is Coffering under the greaten dinrefs ; and thus rendered unable to a& with Os accullomed vigour and efficacy againn the common enemy. We are lorry to fay, that the fame intelligence proceeds to nate, that, fiom the caufes previoufly affigned, a principal divilion of the ;'ruffian army, f the Silefian levy), amounting to no lets than 60,000 men, hAJ been unable to join. We undertiand it to be the refolutien of Govern ment to grant an immediate Subfidy, proportioned to the petting emergency ; and we have teafon to believe that this Sublidy will be followed by one, to she frill as liberal, to the Emperor of Ruffia. The agricultural nate of thee two Powers is Inch as is ' ::l calculated to fupport a protraded war. Their r-pulation fupplies the armies with men; but their (rurrecee is unequal to she fupport of taxes, which ate 10 necelfary for fupplies of another kind. In many parts of Pruilia, and more parti cularly of Rufria, all rents are taken in kind; the mon inconfidetable tax, therefore, is railed with difficulty; and they can be made to contribute no thing to immediate fervice. It is neeeffary that this N diiiinaion fhotrld be remembered, in order to recon cile the apparent incontinency of countries fo opulent in natural refources as Ruffia and Pruffia, (landing . i n nzed of Englifh Subfidies. The apparent incon -1 !;:lencv diftypears in a moment, front an attention lo their prominent line of difEarence—England is a commercial country, Ruflia and Pruffia agricultural. In England there is a great circulation of money, 11 ‘.! An son Nels commercial interchange. This is the . • . proper 48 of taxation, and roavee of, natinntt Iwealth, as far as it confab' in money. In Raffia `there is little interchange ; the p ea f antr y w an d e v e n hufbandry, live almoll wholly on the foil ; they pay I their rents in kind ; they hav e corn , b u t th e y h a ve nb money.

After our Paper had peen at prefs a confiderahle time, a Mail from Denmark arrived at the General Puff Office, bringing German Newfpapers down to and of the 25th of February. . , c • , I Immediately on the arrival of thefe Mails, it was reported that a general cation, in which the Ruffians „.. and part of the PruffiaOs were engaged, had taken place ;,and that the French had been.nitimateltde feated., The following article a confiderably ati variance with the above fiatement. Our Reateis will recol lect, however, that it is taken front the German papers, too much under the influence of the French not to lean to their fide of the quellion : " A relies of aitions took place between the Fr ench and Combined Armies, from the 4th to the Bth of February inclufive. The lag was fought on the Btb, at Eylan, arid laßed from fix in the•morning till eight at night. The combined army began the -attack. The Empei or's Adjutant General CORBIN EAV was killed, and Marfhals At:classy and 'ARMES wounded. The French claim the vkclory, and fay they have taken from twelve to fifteen thonfand pri. loners, eighteen Rand of colours, and forty.five p'eces of cannon. But, though Eylau is only a few leagues from Koningfberg, it does not appear that the French have advanced to that capital." GEORGE R.

This affirm, brought againft the dcfer•dant for cri minal.converfation with the plaintiff's wife, was tried on Thorfday haft before Lord N011.1150.11Y. The, plaintiff had formerly been a difliller, and having failed, he was a pritoner in the Mailhalfea fur. Come: time. Here he became acquainted with the defendant, who wai alfo a plifootr, and after both were difcharged the intimacy continued. The defendant continuing in diftreffed circumflinces, frequently dined kt•the plaintiff's hoar. and in vio laden of all honour, fuer•eeded in feducing the wife. She eloped from her hufband with and lived as a widow under a fictitious name in lodg ings in an obfcure part of the town. The defendant for fome time vitited her as her attorney; but in confequence of the woman of the houfe threatening to turn them out for improper conduit, the defendant declared they were married privately, and from that time the defendant flept every night with Mrs. Mar tin. The retreat of the paramours having come to the knowledge of the plaintiff, he went with a.party of watchmen to the houle where they lodged, at t z o'clock at night, and, according to the evidence- of one of the watchmen, took Q2in out of bed fr Mrs. Martin, without any thing on him except his nightcap." On the part of the defendant it was endeavoured to be proved, that Mr. Martin had always treated his wife in a brutal manner ; but this entirely failing, the Jury found a Verdi et for the plaintiff —dama s .:s 20001. Mrs. Martin had ten children by her 11.11band.;-- The defendant, who was broug:tt up in cuilody from the Marihalfea, where he was confined, appeared as his own attorney on the trial, and feemed quite un• concerned at the different attacks' made •on him by the plaintiff's Connie!.
