LONDON. )FRIDAY, DECEMBEIt I/. !HIGH OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK t 3 per Cent. Conf. for °pg. 73A 3 per Cent. lel ilf—Omnitun dlL Se have received Paris journals to the 14th iniLant. The Moslust of the t zth contains a curious paragraph, founded upon an extra& of a Speech which Lord Oa a alit r.t.a* is fuppofed to have Made in the Houle of Lords, with refpea to a Gentleman high in the Secretary of State's Office, having been at Conliance; inferring that he had been fent there by Minifters, though they had fence thought proper to deny having in the 'Mallet degree inftigated the late revolt in Switzerland.—Miniiters denied their having in any manner initigated the proceed• ings of the Patriots, and we believe it ; for, previ oes to Mr. Mooaa's leaving England, Switzerland was in arms, and almoft febdued before he could have reached Conftance. As to the charge againfi Lord G&W/ILLS, of having employed agents ott the Continent during the war, it implies no blanie at all, nnlefs thofe agents were employed for purpofes difclaimed by the laws of nations and of humanity. The charge, however, that the agents of this country had any hand in the murder of ROSIRJOT and Bosnian at Rafiadt, muff be heard with indignation. Even the Dirsaory and its tools never went fo far as to afociate any Englilhman with the Archduke CHAIM*. and Colonel DAILSACZY ii that affair, The gallant Prince in queftion. was acenfed, but In defence it was fufficient to nano his aecufers. Now, for the Aril time during profound peace does the French Official journal accufe Lord Gass vi Lt.a of having contrived the murder of the French Miniflers at Raftadt. The atrocity of fuck an accufation makes us forget the folly of the charge of having tacked the mobs at Rome and at Vienna, which made JOSIIIIII BOSA4AItiI quit Rome, pre. pious to its fubjugation ; and Bs a 116DOTT1 Vienna, previous to a new war. Indeed it is now believed, as much as any hiftorical fad whatever, that the tints in quefiion were purpofely excited by thofe who waited to profit, and to a certain extent did pro& by them.—to wit, the French Ambafadors themfelves and their Government. It mutt be confeffed that the Maims, has jolt is much liberty of the prefs to abufe this country and its Government, as the Journals of this coun try to abufe France and its Govemmenb At the Lime time there is an infinite difference in the im portance of the abufe, and the conclufions to be drawn from it. When the French Official journal accufes Lord GaE sysLLI of contriving plots and Perpetrating atraffination, it is not to be forgotten that it is the Government thardidlates the accufa tion. The Imperial Commitary at Ratilon, in a Note to the Diet, expreffes a hope that the nego ciations going on at Paris will procure for the Gump DURAL 1 . 13 Ch additional indemnification to be engrafted upon the plan of indemnities, as will ultimately induce the EMPSIOR to accede to it.

The morning being rather damp and unpleafant, but few equedrians of rank were in the field. Mr. and Mrs. HARFORD and family left us for the metropolis yefterday. The day of his Royal Highnefes departure is not at prefent known. Count STAMM/43E1W, we have reafon to believe, has made a very fpirited remonftrance to his Go. vernment on the extraordinary treatment which he experienced at Paris, and it will probably be the more attended to, as that Nobleman was charged by the Imperial Cabinet with confidential com munications to Count Coaswrzet., the Imperial Minitier at Paris, which he was deprived, by the peremptory condo& of the French Government, of an opportunity of making.--True Briton. We underhand that it is propofed that Perna merit should adjourn on the z3d its& not to meet again till the 3d day of February.

By an account laid before Parliament, of the Total Net Produce of all the Permanent Taxes, in the years ending the teth of Oftober, tBol and refpeaively, it appears that is the year tBot, they amounted to 34986,3091. t4s. t lid. and in the prefect year, to 25,199,0881. 14s. ofd. A Bill to regulate the trade betwixt this coun try and Malta, was yefterday introduced and read a firfl and fecond time. It gave rife to no difcuf fion. The introduaion of this Bill feems, howe ver, to thew, that Malta is not to be immediately given up. The Commiffioners under the Bill for enquiring into the abufes in the Naval Department, were yefterday named. They are Vice-Admiral Sir CHARLES MAURICE POLE, HUOHLETCESTER t Efq. Ewai Law, Efq. JOHN FORD, Efq. and HellßY HUNTER, Efq. It is indeed a meafure of great importance, and it produces .a lively fenfation in thole it affeas, who underftand its extent, 1 Which very few do.

It is true, that no puniiliment at tends refufal ; bat he who refutes, will immedi diately be ftigmatifed as having been guilty of Tome crime which he fears will come to light and he will no longer be employed. He is to be examined on oath, and if he does not Rate the truth, he may be pilloried. The new Naval Arfenal and Dock Yard, about to be formed in the Ifle of Graine, is fotely intended for the purpofe of repairing and refitting the North Sea and Downs Fleets in particular; the Dock Yards of Woolwich, Deptford, and Chat ham, generally, being in future to be ufed wholly for the purpofe of building.

The Bah Botfy was repeated laft night, at Drury lane, to a very full and fafhionable Houfe. It was aced very well in all the parts, and the audience were kept conftantly in good humour. Mrs. Joe min's Miranda was full of vivacity and fafcination. The projea of placing the Paris Theatres under the Prefeas of the Palace teems to be adopted in imitation of the funaions of the Lord Chamber lain in England. We doubt much, however whe ther the Mules of the Drama will ratify this ap pointment.

A ea& from the celebrated Egyptian Slab, pre fenced by the Antiquarian Society to the Univer fity of Cambridge, was eaR week placed in the Univerfity Library.
