ORDERS IN COUNCIL. The House being resumed — The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER mo ved the Order of the da y for going into a Com mittee upon the Bill for carrying into effect the late Orders in Council. He premised, however, that as be purposed to introduce several alterations in the Bill, and to an extent greater than he was at first pre pared to expect, he should propose the Committee pow only ftro forma, in order to move the alterations ; the Bill then to be printed ; and when it should thus be shaped in a more perfect form, it might either un dergo any farther discussion thought necessary on the re port, or be recommitted, if the House should deem it txpedient The alterations he proposed to intro duce were, Ist, To do away all the duties already re quired from neutral vessels clearing from British ports by bond, which might afterwards be sanctioned by law : Rdly, All cargoes of ships warehoused in this country for exportation, and which were shipped f ro m their respective ports before notice could be sup posed to have reached those ports of the Orders in Council, and also to the cargoes of all ships in the like re akarnent. • Mr. PONSONBY said, he was glad that in the hours that had elapsed since three o'crock that morn ing, the Right Hon. Gentleman had refkcted upon the propriety of allowing the House the further time to consider the Bill, which he then thought proper to refuse. However, notwithstanding the alterations he now proposed, the Bill still . appeared so totally ob jectionable in principle that he should decidedly resist it in the present stage, and take the sense of the House upon the question for the Speaker's leaving the Chair. For, as a measure of hostility to France, he con sidered it the most puerile and inefficacious that ever entered into the conception of any Minister ; and in every other respect, he considerLd it a measure the most inimical to the interests both of Great Britain and America. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, if he had acceded to the wishes of the Right Honourable Gentleman this morning, he should have lest the advantage he now proposed, of having the Bill printed by Monday. The Right Honourable Gen tleman certainly had a right, if he thought fit, to take the sense of the House upon it now ; and to tint ex periment he had no objection. It might he a fair op portunity for the Right Honourable Gentleman to reap a little popularity from the appearance of a treater proportion of votes in his favour, owing to the present situation of the House, than he could have on any other occasion. Some preparation might be made on one side of the House, amongst those who were aware of this purpose, while none were made on the other, where no objection could have been expected to a propositions° fair as that which had been offered. It might redound, perhaps, to the Right Honourable Gentlem.-a's fame, when the story should go forth of his increased success ; but the House and the Public would judge of the means. Mr. BRAND denied that any preparation like that imputed had been made by his Right Honourable Friend, who declared he would resist the Bill in every stage, and therefore had a right to take the sense of the House, in which he would support him. Mr. DAVIES GIDDY also declared his decided - cppesition to the Bill in tote. Mr. H. MARTIN expressed some astonishment at the imputation made by the Right Hon. Gentleman, against the opposition side of the House. His Right Honourable Friend exhibited no arras• of strength on 1 his side of the House, whatever might be the power of the Right Honourable Gentleman for celerity in the muster of his forces. A loud cry of " Order" put an end to the convex - Satan k and the question of leaving the Chair awing put, the House divided, when there appeared— Ayes I lB—Noes-32—Majority The House then resolved into a Committee on the Bill. The alterations were adopted, and the Bill or dered to be reported on Monday ; and it was agreed, that the farther discus '.on should take place on Tues. day.—Atijourned. EVENING ST.III. LONDON.

An article from Copenhagen, dated the 19th ult. which appears in the continental journals received yesterday, states, that " so early as the month of July last it was supposed in the Isle cf France that a war must at last be unavoidable between England and Denmark, on which account an embargo was laid on all the Danish ships lying there—a hope is therefGrc en tertained, that by this measure of the French Govern ment many Danish ships will escape being captured.'' This very ar:.icle, peblisbcd as a matter of exulta tion against this country, chews, in opposition to its intention, that France was determined to make Den mark a party in the war against this country. Why were the Danish vessels embargoed at the Isle of France ? To prevent them from falling into the hands f the English, say our enemies. But, allowing for the time it rnuA have required to transmit the orders Zia the embargo from Europe to the Isle of France, it Plainly appears that France had resolved to seize these aYps, in the event of Denmark refusing to follow the line of conduct chalked out for that rower by France. The Ha.nburgh C 6 msfrondtnt, of the 26th January, had inskatcd the letter a..cribed to NANLEON. as having been transmitted to the Prince of Asturias, w:th the sword of FRANCIS I. and his appointment to the office of Generalissimo of the Army then marching against Po tu;al, has pubistted, by authority, that the letter alluded to was a forgery. The subjoined letter from Munich deserves parti cular attention, is ismuch as it skews, that the whole male population of the Continent is to be trained to the use of arms. For years cast we have been raising our feeble voice to induce, if possible, our own Co. vernment to adopt this necessary measure of self. defence. Had our calls been regarded, every able bodied man in this country would, long 'ere now, have been qualified to take the field on an emergency: MUNICH. JAN. 6. The Bavarian army has returned from the field in an excellent condition ; the regiments of cavalry in particular are extremely well mounted. The grcatet part of the men have already received furloughs. The crganizing of the National Militia is carried on with great activity through the Kingdom of Bava ria. In the greater part of the towns and districts it is already complete, and the men are as well disci plined as the troops of the line. Every person capa ble of bearing arms, under the age of 60, is obliged to serve, at least there are but few exceptions.

A New-York paper, of the 7th ult. states, that an express had arrived at Washington to the British Mi nkter, to know whether Mr. ROSE would be receivel? Mr. Eu.sKrwimmediately applied to the Executive, and soon after returned an answer to Mr. RoV•F, re-' questini; him to repair to \Vashingtcn immediately. Letters from Washington state, that strong hopes were entertained of a speedy accommodation of all different,!s between this cfamtry and America ; but that apprehensions were entertained of an approach ing rupture between Ameri,:a and Fratice. Yesterday, a meeting was held of the St. Domingo Merchants, to receive Ole •report of the deputation, which bad conferred with the Chancellor of th e Ex chequer, respecting the new duties to be levied upon I St. Domingo produce. The Minister Ins acceded to i the wishes of the Merchants to a considerable extent. I Those cargoes are to be exempt from the new duties which were, or may be, shipped in vessels that sailed from England prior to the II th of November last. Also those cargoes \vhich have been already, or which may be, received in exchange for British ma nufactan. F. .. .... _ . It has been intimlted to some of our leading Ame rican Mercantile Houses in the City, that Ministers do not intend to propose to Parliament that any ad ditional duties . shall be laid on the cargoes of such vessels as may have been warned into the British ports. Such cargoes will consequently be permitted to be landed and warehoused, with liberty to re-ship the lame, without any additional duty, to any port or place to which the proprietors of such cargoes may think proper to consign the same.—Cottons, however, are c xceptcd. No advices have yet been received from Admiral Duc•Kwonat The general opinion continues to be, that the Rochefixt squadron is destined for the West Indies. Oa being infinmed of its course, Sir SAMLCL Honu dispatched the Dragon, of 74 guns, with the intelligence to .Admiral CocurtnNE. The Dragon is a fine fa..t sailing ship, and it is supposed that she would reach the Leeward Island station in due time to apprize Admiral Cochrane of the enemy's ap proach, and sufficiently reinforce his squadron, to enable him successfully to cope with them. The pro bability, therefore, is, that one or other of our squa drons must fall in with the enemy.

The Sermon was preached by the Bishop of Si. DAVID's. The Archbishops of Canterbury and York, the Bi shops of Durham, Bristol, Norwich, Bath and Wells, Chester, St. Asaph, Exeter, Gloucester, &c. &c. were present. They afterwards partook of an elegant din ner at the Mansion House. Monday last, the foundation-stone of a pillar, to the rre:mory of 1.,0rd NEI.SON, was laid at the Rotunda, in Dublin. The procession was composed of the Lord Lieutenant and suite, and all the Public Bodies in Dublin, and had a Very fine effect. The masonic ce remonies at laying the stone were perfia-med by hii Grace the Lord Lieutenant, amid an immense con course of spectators. The Volunteers and Yeomanry wer e paraded on the occasion, and a numerous body of sailors very appropriately formed part of the pro cession.

L COLONEL FULLARTOM • - The funeral of that excellent and accomplished Officer, took place at the parish Church of Isleworth on Thursday afternoon. The remains, conta;ned in hearse and six, moved slowly from his late mansion at Wortofi, at 3 o'clock, and were followed by six mourning coaches and four, in which were many of It'.s noble relatives and friends, and several General and other Officers who had witnessed his distinguished military career. The family carriage of the much lamented deceased, and long train of carriages and servants belonging to relatives and friends, whose hi• disposition, or Parliamentary, or other indispensable duties, prevented their personal attendance, closed the melancholy procession. The village of Isleworth, and the roads leading to it, exhibited a scene that. was never equalled there, and the tears that bedewed the cheek of all ranks of persons assembled for the purpose of witnessing the procession, and paying the last mark of respect to the remains of the general benefactor of the human race, did equal honour to the hearts of those who shed them, and to the person, the recollection of whose many services and many virtues occasioned them. To do just c to the deceased, either as a Gentl7• man, a Soldier, a Scholar, or a Man, is not the Tre tence of the person who offers this humble tribute of his respect fir the illustrious character, now, alas! n 3 more ; it is, however, well known to those th.tt had the happiness of his acquaintance, that he pos sessed every useful and polite accomplishment ; he united the clearest judgment and decision to the most determined gallantry ; he was deep read in all the ancieat and modern languages, most of which he spoke with the greatest fluency ; he was a great pa tron of the useful and polite arts, and possessed every feeling that does.honour to the human heart.— His loss will be long and deeply deplored by a host of relatives, friends and acquaintances, dispersed through out every part of his Majesty's dominions.
