II Colonies, it was only upon the --it was no better than fmuggling therefore. As to I a ruptuie with America, his Right Hon. Friend, to whom he had before alluded, did not entertain the fmalleft apprehenfo , n of filch a thing on this recut' it —and, in fart, the Americans had conceived that we IF were AElingidperfett confiftency with our jut! rights, at.d had iffued orders upon that idea. He thought the produCtion i.f thefe documents nzeelTary, in order to defend the charaAer of hi. deceafed 16,0 11(.11. Friend from the charge of inconlitiency.which would unds , uStedry attach to him, if, after the (Irons' man net in which he reprobated this traffic, lie had ',d rained it to exult, iu an inllance where it was com• pletely in his power to prevent it. They would Alf, prove, that the import of our nianufa&ures in'o the Spanifh colonies did not ‘2.epend upon the t:ad:. in Slaves. Mr. ROSE hill e , mtended, that our manu'aFiures were conveyed to the Spanifh Colonies, to the value that there nearly three milli o n s fterling annually, and tI there were covered by ihrves. A flip had an oppor tunity of dig - poring of a valuable cargo there. by 't o carrying only (even (laves, by way of a cover. This privilege would be loft, if the trade in Mores with there colonies was abolifhed. He affirmed, that it was no fmuggling to carry (laves to thefe Colonies, as the traders had' a pofitive aft in their favour, though the Order in Council was againft them They had Rill a right therefore to cart y it on at the rifk of capture. Mr. FRANCIS afked if oar manufaeures were exported to the Spanifh Colonies, to the value of a,800,0001. annually,what might be the value of each cargo, which was allowed to be fold under the cover of (even naves, and whether it might not be fbld without that cover ? Mr. ROSE replied, that the value of a cargo might perhaps be about so,oool. Mr. FRANCIS then (aid, that we had this fat), that a cargo of the value of so,copl. might be fold in thefe colonies under the cover of (even (laves, and that it could not be fold without this cover. Mr. ROSE—I do affert that fait. W.. WILBERFORCE adverted to the diftindion between authority and right, eflablifhed in his own mind by his Right Hon. Friend. He had heard that fmuggling was no bteach of morality, as the (mug. glees carried on the trade at their own rifk. By the fame logic, highway robbery might be proved to be a very honell fort of occupation. This morality would be convenient for many of his Right Honour. able Friend's neighbours on the Southern Coati.— Another propf thar the Spaniards walled for a shred inpply of our manufaltures, independently of the flares, was, 111 ,, t they had been fupplicd with there manufaltures before in neutral bottoms, empkyed by our merchants, and had therefore no occafion to ufe the cover of this trifling number of (laves to procure them. Sir J. NEWPORT hoped that this abominable trade would bon be altogether abolifhed. After flue further obfervations from Mr. Manning and Mr. Role, Mr. WILIER rnp.ce moved, by Addrefs'lo his Ma jelly, for the Order in Council refpecling the Trade with the Spanifh Colonies, of the aoth of November, 1797 ; and alio for the Orders of the 28th of March, 1798, and of the 23d of September, 1803, relative to the fuhjeEt.—Agreed to.

The p:;:kiii,trs by the Packet which brought the snail fla:e, thrt jail before they tailed. a report was emulated, that intelligence had been received of a Refriatha ia Prea having taken place. The intelli• gence would have appeared more probable. if it had only dated that Come kind of inforrellion or riot bad taken place in cceequence of the dircontent of the people at the meafures of the Government, for a revolution could hardly be called in fo fudden a manner. We mull therefore wait for farther ac counts before we give full credit to fuch a report. Aerial bodilities have taken place between the ?ruffians and SWedes. The latter refilled to retire from their former politicos fo Coon as they were re quired to do, and the latter had recourfe to force, to compel. than. The Swedilh troops retired in good order.

In the mean time the French General.; have again declared that they will leave Braun rat as fool, as the kulliao troops 11411 have evacuated Dalmatia. The Court of Vienna, in confequence, difpatched yeller day the Courier, La Foret, to St. Peter (burgh ; but it is believed that it will find it difileolt to extricate itfelf from the embarrafrment in which it is placed by the late events.

LUBRCK, Avast. 23.—At twelve o'clock this fore noon a fltirinfffi took place at Judorf, between a (mall body of Swedi(h cavalry avd the Pruffian infantry, who advanced againfl them. The Swedes were called upon by the Pruffians to retire, who, on their refufal to comply, attacked theirs. The Swedes being too weak retired, but halted upon an eminence, and were again attacked by the Pruffians, upon which, after a gallant defence, they retired. Some men were killed and wounded on both fides. A trcsaurtu, Aran. 15.—Ytfterday morning ar rived from Vienna M. Talleyrand, nephew of the Mightier, and after a fhort hop proceeded to Mem 'Mogen.

FRANCKFORT, APRIL 0.--We have been alarmed for tome time pall on ac ount of the dilagreeable intelligence of the ilopp.ig.: put to the evacuation of Bratinau, tire retrograde march of the French troops, and the fulfillment rf the Ilipulations of the Peace between Aniiria and France. More agreeable intel ligence, however, has now reached us : Europe is about to enjoy that repnfe which was provided for her by the Treaty of Prefbargh. A foimal Con vention, which permits the French troops to pats through Ponteba and Triefle, for Tillie and Dalma-1 tia, was figned at Vienna on the Bth of this month and two days afterwards the intelligencearrived there of the evacuation of the Ruffians from the fhores of the Cattaro, which had been a:copied by there troops for this month pall. On the tgth intl. two couriers arrived from Vi enna at the office of Count Stadion at Ratilbon, as bearers of the above intelligence. They alto brought the intelligence that the moment this important news f arrived at Vienna, M. Talleyrand, nephew of the French Miniffer for Foreign Affairs, let off for Paris. It is already well known that the journey of this di• plomatic officer wiU be prodo&ive of happy confe. quencea for the peace of the Continent. Upon his arrival at Braunau, the works which were going on by the French for again fortifying that place. were again countermanded. The communications which were cnnfcquently made at Munich to Martha! Bet tiller, have even induced this Ct.mmancicr to fend orders to Matfhals Ncy and Snult, to rerirne their march with their armies for the Mine.

The Ruffian atmies , which for many weeks have been potted on the frontiers of l',uffia and Gallicia, have now brAen up to return to their ufual garrif ass.

The troops which in laft Autumn broke up for Getmany, from Eat', Weft, and South Proffia, now corre ali htel: to their ordinari Rations. A great quantity of hay, Rraw, and corn, in the Jfiiitary Magazines in Hail Psuffii, is to be fold in finall quantities, at very low prices. Some Merchants and Factors even offer crest quantities of oats hill lower, which proves that no fealci.y is to be feared: brit what makes this authentic news tome intereßing and imp,rtatu, is the certainty that Psuffia is on the belt tinderflai lug with Ruffia, and that there is not the remote(' profpen of war as fume timid per fon; bdieve, and , urbulent And intere:led indviduals wiflt.—SeNth Prz!gian BCRLIN, Ar2it. 23 —After the atrival of Mr. Jackson, brother to the Minintr, on the I9th, in the evening, he wrote a note fo Count 11.ttigw117., ing that an embargo had b een l a id on a ll P ro :Tian !hips; and tequhing pafrports Lor the whole of the Englifb Embalfy. fle received the:n yefierday.

Many Councils have been held upon this fuller, but the'deftination of thefe troops is not yet known. Hitherto they ate all under the command of Generals Kalkreuth and Ruechel.— Count Keller, formerly Ambaffador at Stockholm, Peterlburgh, and Vienna, is appointed Cabinet Mini tier. Their Majeflies went yeflerday to Potitiam for the rummer. Corawtracam, APRIL 19.—According to all ac. counts our Court has firmly refclved to maintain a fyftem of the ftriffeft neutrality. HAMSURCH, APRIL 23.—The rencontre between the Swedes and Profflans is imagined to have arifen either from a miflake, or from the violent anicnefity which prevails between the troops of the two nat ions, rather than from any orders of their Sovereigns.— The reports here are various concerning this affair, but nothing is known officially. A Proffian corps of 700 foot and 300 horfe has marched into Come villages dependant on Nuremberg, and is quartered on the inhabitants. The reafun af figned is, that a Pruffiai foldier was arrefted and carried pi ifoner to Nuremberg ; the hfagillrates have, however, iffued a proclamation, in which they declare ' the foldier in quellion to have defected from Nurem berg only a year ago, and to have returned volun- tarily.
