But vital objection to-the while the public were had imposed upon it ie issue of specie, it o f t he profit' of the bargain and the nature of . n its elf. He dwelt upon the great incon tote that would result front taking the manage. t ee debt into our own h ands, and contended bu t t h g B a nk were not overpaid for that manage and that it would be productive of much Dents a ter expence, if we-took the management if said into our own hands. g r . H. THORNTON eepresed himself tolerably brawith the bargain, that had in this instance r ade for the peblic. He agreed with his Hon. It :et a (Mr. Bankes), that the rate of allowance fee management might have been reduced farther, o ak not been for the Acts of Parliament that stood a y. But taking these into consideration, he ist tbe • H Gentleman (the Ch ancellor t e d t he Right on. iibe exchequer') had reduced it nearly as much as ja w / allowed him. With regard to the three mil roes, b e t hought, that the public would havb a ;ow -advantage from these than from the allowance aat t he interest recommended by some. The inconve slence to the Bank would not be much. They wou Exchequer Bills. All this, he said, did not diminish the duty of parliament to look with jealousy to the amount of BMA Notes in circulation. It might happen too, that the Commissioners of the Sinking 1 7 und, might find it convenient to become subscribers to the loans—and the balaitce in the Bank would, by this means, be diminished. He viii it, therefore, to be clearly understood, that t he Commissioners might be at liberty to become cut- scr ibers to the loan, if convenient, without its being considered as•anY infringement of this agreement. Mr. HUSICISSON, in answer, stated that express tale bad been taken to provide that Government should not be precluded from resorting to any means for reducing the balances. gr. D. GIDDY observed, that though the issues o f the Bank might be enlarged by the restriction, their ‘2Pltal was still limited ; and unless they had so much . capital that they did not know what t. do with it, t hey must be losers by lending these three millions. Lord H. PETTY said, that on two branches of this transaction he hardly thought it necessary tovtrouble the House with any observations at all. On the sub. ject of the unclaimed dividends, he felt much inclined to concur in the view of the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite. The Balk Director s in the course of the conferences on this subject naturally resorted to the definition of an unclaimed dividend, which had been allowed by certain Acts of Parliament—yet the natu ral definition he should take to be, a dividend that vas not claimed in the quarter when due, without se (entice to the text quarter. Of these dividends all i flat could be taken, ought undoubtedly to be applied to the public service, and .€lOO,OOO left in the Bank, was an ample sum to meet any unexpected demand. The Honourable Director (Mr. S. Thornton) had *slid an instance of a sudden demand for £50,000, lathe must know, that it was hardly possible that two kith instances should cccnr it the same time, and at any rate it would be open to the Bank to have ?'course to the Exchequer. He hoped, therefore, the Right Hon. Gentleman would persevere in this prt of.the arrangement , and h e had no doubt the leak Directors would on further consideration be satiated with it. On another branch of the transaction, " the ma levolent of the-Debt," he would also say but little ; foekiugh he thought that this might be conducted leitheacee economy, yet as the Bank acted in this as 4tits,lnd not exactly in their ordinary line of duty , they tertainly had a rig,ht to be paid as agents, and let merely, as bankers. Though the remuneration wai large, yet the Public derived a great advantage from's:heir undertaking the management of the debt, since it could not be managed in a different manner, sithout a much larger expence than the compen sation to the Bank. He agreed, that the subject ought to be viewed with a reference to this circuit?. stance, and therefore he concurred in the general propriety of this part of the arrangement. With regard to the third part of the arrangement, the loan of three millions, he concurred with the Hon. Gentlemen (Mr. Bankes,) and his-Right Hon. Friend (Mr. Tierney), in expressing the strongest objection to the mode which had been resorted to in this in stance. His Right Honourable Friend had said, that this loan would not have been advanced, had it not been for the restriction. Whether he was right or wrong in that, he did not know ; but of this he was sure, that the House ought to take care, that the Bank re miction should not be considered in the slightest de gree in this transaction. The restriction was only jus flied by its necesssity at the time it was imposed, and it was due to the public, that nothing should be done !risich should in the least retard the period at which it might be taken off. If any accommodation was given or accepted, with a reference to this restriction, k would be attended with endless mischief, both to the public and the Bank. He thought it the more nap mssary to advert to this, because in the correspon-1 'knee there was no direct recognition of the exclusion daft consideration of the restrictions • and if what ', the Directors said was correct, that they did not de rive a profit from the balances up to the amount as sumed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, he was at a' a loss to know on what other ground they could agree to advance this sum, except that of the re striction. He could not agree that we were here 'sly taking the public money ; our right was to itiee some profit from the additional notes issued ' 1 horn the Bank, in consequence of the balances in 'heir hands. If the Bank should issue an additional 'bite millions on account of this loan, they would not bt losers but gainers. Perhaps they did not intend it :let he wished to have some security on the subject. !Rif they did not issue, they must draw three mil lions from some source ; and they must afford less ac reranodation to the public in discounting, &c. by 3 trillions than before. He then proceeded to the supe *l advantages which would be derived from having a lelalar and permanent allowance of profits on which a Ta might be raised in another manner. He objected also that the Right Hon. Gentleman precluded hiin self from taking any farther advantage in case of in crease of the balances beyond ten millions, which was very probable. He concluded by observing, ?sat he was glad, however, that the matter had been I nuOlt so far to an issue favourable to the Public. A Noble Lord (Grenville) much conversant in these subjects, a n d h e hi ms elf, had often insisted with the u nit tors, that they must have a great profit on these wv idends, but the Directors would not allow it. He was glad the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite had suc ceeded in convincing them. ve it no worse name) nby such restriction, al said a good deal to giving us back our Lot to all intents and >w what a loan was ; much by us, nor we to to 'a great among,: ands, and out °faint.• lions to do • what.wet• !rest ; now, if instead • - st, we had from them. ins, the arrangenint for according irithet hree maligns, bdt arc: re would be ,an•atusett. the Basalt :keeping shi interest of what lay too ) that:they shneit: tanagement of the dar' payment for so de4 that the Bank ement of ten malice*, .say, that no' private' mess to the amount Of : millions in his hands ay improper, that the in any profits arising l upon the Bank ; the Lt being obliged to have L did not look like hay. resources of the coun , ince a Frenchman that' n this.

The creuct still increases, and this morning, at an early hour, the avenues to the Great Hall at Chelsea, were filled with company of both sexes. We are sure that not only the Army, but the country in general, will be glad to hear that Sir JOHN STEWART, the hero of Maida, is appointed to the chief command in Sicily. Wherever he has com manded, he has not only supported the honour of his country in arms, but he has conciliated the inhabitants by his affability and his attention to their comfort and welfare. When we consider that a strong French party exists in •Palermo, that some of the• branches of the Royal Family. are said not to be altogether free from an unnatural prejudice towards the merciless ravagers of their country, and the savage destroyers of their independence, we are happy to bestow the tribute of applause on the appointment of such a man to that important post. Naples, Calabria, Sicily, Malta, Alexandria, (we cannot but heave a sigh when we. recollect the late unaccountable evacuation of Ale ' andria !) will attest the truth of our description of the General's character. To sum up all, he was so ob noxious to the views of the French in Egypt, in 1802, that he became the object of the rancarous abuse of Sebastiani, who was sent by Bonaparte to seduce the Egyptians from their attachment to the British Nation. Yesterday, at two o'clock, his MAJESTY held a Private Levee, at the Queen's Palace. The following had the honour of being presented to his MAJESTY : Sir HENRE Woe nes. HOLMES, on coming to his title, by the Duke of Portland. Sir lituav V. DARREL, upon his return from India. Lord KeITH, upon his marriage. Mr. BaLour, upon his being appointed a Welch Judge, by the Lord Chancellor. General MURRAY, upon his marriage, by Sir James Pulteney. Major-General Wurritass, upon his being appointee Joint Muster-Master-General of Ireland, by Mr. Fostrr. Lieutenant-General VILLETTZS, upon his leaving England for Jamaica, to be Lieutenant - Governor. Mr. FOSTER, upon his being a Commissioner of the Treasury. His MAJESTY held a Privy Council, and gave audiences to the Cabinet Ministers. The Prince of WALES visited their Majesties and the Princesses. The Dukes of CUMBEHLAND and Susszx, and the Princess SOPIIIA of GLOUCESTER, dined with her Majesty. The Princesses honoured Lady C. FINCH with a visit, at her apartments in St. James's Palace. An evening paper of yesterday mentioned a report of an attempt having been made to assassinate King JOSEPH, as he was returning to Naples, from his coun try residence. The assailants are stated to have fired into his carriage, and killed 15 of his guards. This intelligence rests on no authoritry. Sunday se'nnight, the Ist company of the Belfast Infantry,.under the command of Capt. George Joy, very handsomely came forward, and made an offer of one day's pay, for the relief of the British prisoners in France. Captain PARKINSON, who brought the dispatches relative to the capture of the Danish West, India Islands, has been appointed to the Ardent. The Bill introduced by Mr. RosE, for the better re gulating the Office of Treasurer of the Navy, enacts, that the Treasurer of the Navy shall apply to the Treasury for money under the head of wages, or of general service only, and that the balances in his hands shall be specified. Yesterday the Marquis of TIIOMOND was unfortu nately killed in Grosvenor-square. He was riding on horseback, and as he turned the corner of the square from the east to the south side, he rode up rather close to the railing, where the pavement is not so even as in the middle of the carriage-way. The horse tumbled, and his Lordship fell upon his head. Being in his 86th year, he was very infirm, and incapable of making any exertion towards lessening the force of his fall ; he bled profusely, and lay upon the ground. i Lord SYDNEY happened to be at home at the time, and ordered his porter and some others, to bring the unfortunate Nobleman into his house. The servants took him up in an apparent lifeless state ; and, upon a professional man being sent for, it was found that his Lordship was actually dead. Just as his Lordship fell, a cart happened to be coming up ; one of -the , wheels run against him, but it is not supposed that that was the occasion of his death. His Lordsl i? was Marquis of Thomond and Earl of Inchiquin, in 'lreland, and Baron Thomond, in England. Having died without issue, the Hon. EDWARD O'BRIEN, his Lordship's brother, sicceeds to the Marquirate ; but the English Barony is extinct. 111•14111 A LIST OF THE. MINORITY, WHO VOTED TOR MR.

By private letters from America, received in town this morning, certain accounts are received that the STATIRA frigate with Mr. ROSE on board, arrived at Virginia on the 80th of December. A ship from Charlston has brought an account of another severe conflict between the parties of Cnais- TOPIIE and PETION, in St. Domingo, which has ter minated greatly to the discomfiture of the latter. American ships are said to have been prohibited en tering the Haytian ports, within the jurisdiction of CHR/STOPHE. We mention these rumours, without attaching much credit to them. Letters have been received from St. Croix, dated the 29th of December, by which it appears that in telligence had reached that Island of the arrival of i two French frigates at Martinique with troops. Letters from Hamburgh, of the 24th ult. state, that the KING of PRUSSIA had issued a Decree similar to that of BONAPARTE, by which he declares the British Government the common enemy of Nations ; and that all ships which shall arrive at a Prussian Port, after having touched in any of the British Islands, shall be seir„ed, and condemned as lawful prizes. A letter from Stralsund, dated January 5, says, 44 Napoleon has not yet disposed of the sovereignty of, our little country. No alterations whatever have yet taken place,by his order, in the Civil Government of our several towns, nor are the Swedish arms removed from over the public offices. According to all appearances we shall not form a part of the Great Nation, but . seem to be kept in reserve, in case he is able to seduce our beloved G. Adolphus to forsake the English inte rest.
