This would flatter the vanity of the Hihdons, and it would he but just, •as we extracted from this people seventeen millions yearly. lie then proposed four clauses to the above effect, which, it was understood, were to be printed with the Bill, and discussed hereafter. The apprizes priation clause was then agreed to, with some follow ing dalise. After much desialtory conversation, Mr. FAWCETT proposed, and afterwards with drew, an Amendment to separate the commercial 'and political accounts of the Company. The Committee then proceeded to other Clauses in the Bill. When they arrived at that which nortii hates the Archdeacons, Mr. I<OI3ERT SMITH proposed, that the four Archdeacons should not be altogether overlooked, ana sugg ested that 8 500 be granted to each for their outfit. - The amendment was agreed to. On reading the clause relating to the military esta biishment to be maintained by the Company, Mr. ROBERT I'HORNION moved, that the amount of that establishment should be diminished, but the alteration was negatived. Mr. ROBINSON obervcd upoli the impropriety 'f the Company possessing the power of re-instating Military officers, who had been sentenced by Courts Martiel. He moved an amendment to remedy this detect, but it was negatived without any reply biting attempted: A conversatieo of consideraLle length took place on the cl ruse relative to the Army Establishment in India. Mr. ROBINSON, Mr. TIEV.N EY, and Mr. GRANT, contended that the Company ought not to be charged with the Number of regiments, but with the number of effective men. Lord CASTLEREAGH and Lord PALMERSTON defended the clause, and said, that the India Compary had the preference t.f the strongest regiments. The clause, aftet some further contersa tinn, passed in the affirmative.. and was ordered to be adopted. The clause respecting Grants and Aanuities from the Company also occasioned same discessitin. Mr. TIERNEY argued - that the Board of Controul was not the proper check on the India Company. He de! not speak of the present Board (they were in all respect proper persons to exercise this discretion), but it might hereafter be composed cif persons as liatslis to 'se duped as himself. The Right Hon. Gent'eman elude a few other remarks. A r.lause was added to it, at the motion of Mr. Aseeee, ordering that -a copy of all pensions, gretni ties &c. from the India Company, be !aid before Par- Itienent within one mouth from their date. The clause impoweting the Governor of Fort WO • Liam to collect the dirge:, lc. was then read and agreed to. An Amendment was then seggested by Mr. R. smuni, which was agreed te. On the clause respectiug the Chu. ch Establishment, ' Mr. HORNER objscod to the train of subordi nation proposed to be introduced. ceoid net lin. . derstand why a Bishop should be appointed for the discharge of the Episcopal functions, but he could see ;to occasion for three Archdeacons. Mr. ROBERII'HORTON said, one Archdeacon *as to reside in each Presidency, and the Bishop at Calcutta. Mr. WILLIAM DUNDAS proposed a clause fir the appointment of three Scotch Clergymen in India, one in each Presidency, with a moderate salary. Lord CASTLEREAGH opposed it. Mr. N I ZILLIAM SMITH strenuously supported the measure. Mr. HORNER could see no reason why the other branch of the Established Religion of the kingdom, should not have Clergymen in India. The emigrants from North Britain in India were as two to one to the natives from other parts of • the Empire, and were these two-thirds to be lett entirely without religion ? The Church of Scotland was in every respect upon an equal footing with the Church of England. Was India a part of England only ? It belonged to the -Crown of Great Britain and Ireland, and not to Eng land alone. Mr. 'WILLIAM DUNDAS said zit they asked was an opportunity fir the natives of North Britain of practising their religion in India. Mr. FORBES thought they might well strike off the Archdeacon bf Calcutta, for the sake of the three Scottish Clergymen. Mr. CHARLES GRANT, sen. ssii-1, to refuse this would be a sort of insult effered by the Noble Lord to the natives of Sectlend, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER opposed it, on the ground of the necessity, if such a sneasure was carried, of going a great deal farther with it. Mr. FINLAY shorly supported the Clause. A division then wok place, when there appeared, Volt the Clause, 18—Against It, 20—Majo, y again.a it, 2. The different clauses having been gone through, the Chairman obtained leave to report the Bill with the Amendments to the House. The report was then brought up, and ordered to be taken idto fur ther considt ration on Monday nexts and the Bill with the Ameadments to be printed. Mr. LOCTAART gave nottce, that he would to-morrow move for leave to bring in a Bill to put down Mock Auctions. The House then proceeded to the other orders of the dry, atter which they adjourned at Half past One o'Clock to this day. YitwM I ~TACKS THIS DAY AT 1' WELVE ta'CLUCII Rad. 5Gp, —Cons.

COMPLETE DEFEAT OF THE FRENCH BY LORD WELLINGTON, NEAR VITTORIA; All the hope's iive entertained of the success that Might be expected from the advance of Lord Wax- LINGTON, the fine condition of his army, and the retreat of the enetiiy, announced onWednesday, have been more than realised. We mentioned in a late Edition last night (after the depArture of the Mails) that a Telegraphic com munication had reached the Admiralty, from Ply mouth, annoitncing a splendid Victory obtained by Lord WELLINGTON over the enemy. There was some difficulty in making out some parts of the coth municatiori owing to the haze, but enough was under: stood to induce Government to publish the following BuLLETIN: el ADMIRALTY-OFFICE, JULY 2. " Halt-past Six, P. M. cc A Telegraphic communication has just been re ceived from Plymouth, which states, that the Marquis of WELLINGTON has gained a complete victory over the French. No date or place is mentioned." The following is a copy of the notice received by the Telegraph, as far as it could be distinctly made out : TELLGRAPRIC COMMUNICATION. " PLYMOUT 11, POUR O . CLOCI. " The SeAklow Just arrived—Lord WeLLINGTON has gained a complete Vittory over the French." As might be expected, the above Bulletin excited a considerable sensation, and many inquiries were made as to the particulars ; but all that could be learnt was, that the Telegraph announced the capture of Artillery, Baggage, and Prisoners, the numbers of which could not be perfectly ascertained. Every uncertainty has since been removed by the arrival of Captain FREKNIANTL% Aid-de-Camp to the Marquis of WaLuzicrow, who reached To*n this morning, between five and, six o'clock, with the gratifying intelligence that his Lordship had suc ceeded in biinging the French to action on the 21st tilt. near Vittoria ; had entirely defeated the enemy, and taken all his artillery, ammunition and bagg.tge, and an immense number of prison..rs. As intelligence was every hour expected, in conse quence of the telt!graphic notice, and the proper off' cers were in waiting, not a moment was lost in corn municating the gratifying news to the public, by a letter from Lord BATHURST to the LORD MAYOR ; of which the following is a copy ; WAR DEPARTMENT. " DOWNING-STREET, JULY 9, 1815. " Six o'Clock, in the Morning. " Lord BATHURST pt.•st . nts his compliments to the Loan MAz ax, atiti re satisfaction to inform his Lordship, th..t rItEEMANTLE has arrived with intellig,n.e i?t 'Y ELLINGTON having ob rained a splendid and Vicory over the Enemy, on the 2ltst o: J. near Vittoria ; having di iven them irom all their positions, t iken ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-ONE PIECES OF CANNON, FOUR HUNDRED AND.
