SIR 140141 POPHAM. Mr. BURROWS obferved that the papers laid on the table relative to the conduct of an Honourable Baronet who commanded the Red Sea fquadron Tea. dered it necarry that other papers mould be produc ed. He therefore moved that a copy of the exami nation before the Commiffioners of Naval Inquiry, relative to the management of the fquadron in the Red Sea, under Sir Home Popham, flmuld be laid on the table. Sir CHARLES POLE did not fee the fmalle& objellion to this paper ; but as it was certainly a ma- Lion of a novel nature, he thought that Come pre vious notice ought to have been given. Mr. GREY concurred in the propriety of giving notice. He undedlood now that an examination of the cafe had taken place before the Commiffioners of Naval Inquiry, relpeetlng the conduit of Sir Home Popham. He was well pleated that this was the cafe, and undoubtedly it was of importance that any pa• per that could throw any light on this affair &mild be produced. At the fame time, it was not utual to move for a paper of this nature ; but as the Hon. Baronet, who was a Member of the Commillion, had no objection, it might, with the greateL propriety, be received. Mr. CANNING obferved that the effential reafon for the motion was this. It bad been Paid in the Houfe that the Commiffioners, when direiled to in velligate this affair by the Admiralty, returned for anfwer that it was not a matter within their province, but was rather a fubjeift for a Court Martial. The Honourable Baronet (Sir Charles Pole) had then omitted to [late, through inadvertency he had no doubt, that the Commiffinners had, hpwever, pro ceeded with the inveftigatinn. Now it did happen that we had the teftimony of one Lewis, a molt ma terial witnefs, who could not, however, be heard at the Bar of the Houfe. It was neceffary that we fhould, in this cafe, have the heft poffible evidence. It was fortunate that this man was brought forward as an evidence. as they bad travelled out of their way to inveftigate this affair. He begged leave, therefore, to follow np the notice jail now given by fome other notices. He would move for the date of the paper containing the dircaions of the Admiralty or Navy Board, to the Commiffionars for proceed ing in this affair ; the date of the reference of the cafe back again to the Admiralty or Navy Board, by the Commiffioners, together with a copy of any anfwer made by the Commidloners of Naval Inquiry to any communications from the Admiralty. Mr. GREY Paid, that if the Right Honourable Gentleman had any charge to bring against the Corn • miffioners of Naval Inquiry, he had no doubt it would be fully met. Sir CHARLES POLE obferved, that he had never Rated, that the Commiflioners of Naval Inquiry had refufed to proceed with the cafe, but merely raid that it was his private opinion that this was a cafe more fit for a Court Martial. It was extraordinary that he fhould have been mifreprefented, fine fome thing pallid at the time which [hewed that he was not then generally mifunderflood. The notices of Mr. BURILOWS and Mr. Calmat; were then fixed for Tuefday. ORDEILS OF THY DAY...-HOlllll DUTY BILL. This Bill flood on the Order Book for fecond read ing this day. The Secretaries of the Treafury with ed it to be read accordingly. The Members of Op pofition in the Houle, appeared to with that the fe cond reading might either be deferred, or debated then. The Chancellor of the Exchequer was not in the Houfe. At length, and after feveral fhort confe rences acrofs the table, between the Secretary of the Treafury and Mr. Fox, carried on through the me dium of the Clerks, Mr. FOX role. He faid, that the public bonnei ought not to be made to wait for any Member of that H Aire. He certainly would not wait. He should move the Orders of the Day. The Order of the Day for a Committee on the Mutiny Bill was firß moved. The SPEAKER aced when it was wi(hed to com mit this Bill ? Mr. FOX obferved, that he did not with to deter mine the courfe of the public bufinefs. What he thought was, that it would be highly improper in the Houle to fuffcr the bufinefs of the public to wait on the occafions of any man. Sir ROBERT BUXTONfaid, that there were Tome amendments intended to be made in•the 1311; and therefore thought that the order ought to be poltpon ed to Tuefday next.—This was agreed to. On the motion of Mr. HUSKISSON, the Horfe Duty Bill was, without comment, now ordered to be read a fecond time on Tuefday next.—Adjourned to Monday next. LIST OF THE MINORITY. WOW VOTED TOR MR.

Some more French Journals, but none of them of a more recent date than thofe which arrived onWed nefday, have been received. Three more corvettes or frigates, have been ordered to be immediately built at St. Maloe's. An article from the Hague contraditts, in a formal manner, the report of the four Members of Government, who were lately ob- liged to retire, being Sue permitted to allifi at the State conferences. Government have received tome accounts from Lord /gnaw' in the Mediterranean, which mention very atlive preparations making at Toulon fur an ex pedition, but the difpatches are not of a fufficiently late date to afcertain what portion of credit is due to the reports refpeaing the failing of the enemy's (qua dron. The opinion entertained at the Admiralty is Paid to be, that the Rochcfort fquadron is gone to the Weft Indies; and Sir Rosser CALDra is Rated to have been fent thither with a fquadron, in purfuit of it. We have received the Sydney (New South Wales) Gazettes to the ipth of Auguft left. The Rate of that Colony continues every year to improve, and coufidering the charaaer of the majority of its inha bitants, is in a Rate of tolerable good order and tran quillity. The natives in the neighbourhood of Port land Head had committed Tome enormities. in con fequence of which a detachment of the New South Wales Corps had been fent to the relief of the fettlers. A few of the hone natives having fallen, the re mainder dtfperfed. , Mince then," lays a letter from Portland Head, 44 their rancour has greatly fubfidcd, or, at all events, its confequences have become much lets injurious than before, and many have fignified a defire of returning to thtir accuftomed habits, with out which the wants peculiar to the favage Rate mutt be felt with increafed feverity, as well from the lots of the fuccour afforded them by the fettlers, as from the relaxation produced by a long Rate of dependance upon the bounty of their benefaltors." The above proceedings took place in June and July left, but at the date of the laft accdunts tranquillity appeared to be completely relieved. The crops of corn had been abundant beyond all precedent, and the agricultural Rate of the colony was, on the whole, improved to a molt promifing and gratifying degree. Thurfd ay his Grace Dt.

DUBLiN, FL:BRUART 18. On Saturday evening the Roman Catholic Cnm. mittee decided that their Petition fhould be laid be fore Mr. Pi rr previous to its prefentation ; and at the fame time agreed to delay the quellion, if the Minifter fhould conceive that any danger would be likely, at the prefent juncture, to attend the dircuf lion of the fubjed. A Special Jury was occupied the entire of this day, in examining whether Sir I-11mM Massry, a Gentle man of large landed property in the county of Clare, was a lunatic or not. After minute inquiry he was found to be of found mind and capable of the dif pofal of his property. The inquiry originated at the fuit of the eldeft fon. Richard Rochford, Efq. of Dublin, inclined for the murder of Richard Canells, Efq. in a duel which too!: place in Anglia 1789, has been acquitted of murder, and found guilty of manflau4liter. His MapsTv, with the Qum' arid four Patti. csssas, honoured the Concert of Ancient Mufic with their pretence on Thnrfday night. The D❑ke of KEMr, attended by Colonel SMITH, fat in the Direc tors' Nu. The only Direeorsprefent were the Earls of UXBRIDGE, FORTESCUS, and Wicrom. Early yefierday morning, his MAJESTY %ilited her Royal Highnefs the Princefs of WALE s, at her houre on Blackheath, and dined with her Royal Highnefs, and at three o'clock fet off for the Q2een's Houle. His MAJESTY'S non-attendance at the Drawing. room on Thurfday was very unexpeEted ; it was not known at St. James's Palace, for Come time after the Drawing-room had commenced. The Archbifhop of CawrEasulLY came early, for the purpofe of doing homage before his MAJESTY, previous to the com mencement of the Drawing-room; but, on learning his MAJESTY would not be prefent, he was obliged to go to the Queen's Houfe. His Grace returned to the Drawing-room, for the purpofe of being pre• fenced to her MAJESTY, after having done homage before the KING, at the (Igeen's Houfe. Dr. Lace, who has been appointed Dean of Wind. for, and Baron SUTTON, were under firnilar circum. fiances, being obliged to leave the Drawing-room till they had been introduced to the Kisc at the Queen's Houfe, and returned again. COVIIIT-GARDlll.—Laft night their MAJESTIIIS and the PataccasEs again honoured this Theatre with a vilit.—Eight Rate chairs having been placed, three on each fide of thofe of their Malefties, in the royal box, a buz ran among the audience, that the Paiwcass CHARLOTT E of WALE. was to be of the party ; her Royal Highnefs, however, did not crime, and the eighth chair was withdrawn. Previous to the performance of the The Eft,glilh Fled, " GOD Pave the King," was lung, as ufual, and repeated, after the Opera, with " Rule Britannia." The KING wore a kariet uniform. The Q UEEN was foperbly drefed .

Ix, 1804, Lays—" We are at prefent all in peace and quietnefs in this country, and every appearance of remaining fo. The French privateers, which are (warming, are the only fource of uneafinefs to us at this moment, by annoying our Packets and Ships from Europe. An Englith armed (hip, called the T. Eris, of Dominica, was lately attacked by the Bonaparte privateer brig, off Barbadoes, who met with fuch a warm reception from theThetis, that difabled her complete! y,and made her fall into the hands of one of our sloops of war a few days afterwards. Our fea and land forces in the Well: Indies are all much as ufual, and, confidering the climate, in as gond health as can be expedled. This Auld, as I mentioned to you Come time fiace, is alI a: fixes and (evens, nothing but party stork prevailing between the Civil Government and the inhabitants. Our Governor, although a molt worthy good cha rafter, the people cannot agree with ; relignations, tkc. are the confcquencee. There is not the fmalleft appearance of an; ex?edition being formed againft any of the enemy's colonies in this quarter, which is fo often hinted at in the Englith papers. In deed, in my humble opinion, we have peff e iroe s enough, and inftead of grafping at more, to take care of thofe we have got already, w , uld be a more confiftent plan. We hare barely troops enough in the country to put any very relpe4lable garrifons in our numerous colonies. 0 The Lady of Sir Wes. Mrs as, our Commander, goes home to Europe by this Packet.
