l' .1 I, l rr" lIAMBURGH, JUNE 3. I am forry to info: rn yiai, that !Ince my lall (in fatt t' . c tli after it w wi iiteri) this city has been in a nate of the moll paintid an:.l.ity and eontii:inn, owing to the progrefc which the French are now making in the North of Germany. The intelligence eta convert. tion between Ruilia and Prittlia, for the p r or c ainn of the Hanfe Towns, proe:.s to have been a grofs poiltion. Neither Rurna nor Praia teem inclined to proteet this city from invasion, and the followiaz fail may be relied on : On the t R infant, at half paft nine in the morning, a letter arrived here from Paris, by an eftafette, from Senator Schultz, one of the Deputies of the Govern ment of this city, announcing, that the Chief Conful had declared his firm rcfolution to occupy this free Rate and its dependencies, for the purpofe of (butting the Elbe, and excluding Britain from this only port left to her in the North of Germany. The Senator, at the Conful's requea, recommends to the Senate to take care that the French berm than be treated with the utmoft civility, and their wants comfortably fupplied. The Minifter of his Pi n Man Majetty, the f.; &fend Proteitor of the Nord, of Germany, delivered on the 2d infant a note to the Senate, in anfwer to an applica tion to hint to know whether his PrnaiiinTslajetty, in cafe of an invafinn, would he pleated to protat that city, and its commerce and liberties, according to the fecurity it ought to enjoy, by virtue of the treaty of Luneville ? This ncte dates, that his Prilfilan Ma jetty is truly fin prized that the Senate of Hamburgh Mould prefurne that he Inould, to gratify their moll humble fupplications, involve himf.:lf and his fnbjetfts in a war with France. The conduit of his Fruit . = Majefly is the more difficult to be accounted for, as it is certain that he will Ince nearly one.eighth part of the revenue of this place by the forpenlion of commerce with England; and that in Sadie alone upwards of roo,ooo indivi duals will be reduced to beggary. Such is the [late of this city, whaft fugitives from Hanover are daily art iving, to efcape French tyranny. The following letter was fent yefterday by the Bri- Vice•Conftil to the Captain of every Englifh Merchantman at Hamborgh: 14 Sir—You are ordered to quit this port. and to have your veal in readinefs to fail in one hour. Yon mull be ready to depart for Cuxhaven when the tide turns. (Sigurd) gi EDIVIIILD — NI6IIOI4I. Vicer-onfol." PARLIAMENTAItr PRUCEEDINGS. HOUSE OF LORDS, MONDAY, JUNE 13.

The Loa 0 CHANCIL LOC IS trine% of great length and ability, went over the whole evidence upon the cak, and from a very clear concatenation of the whole. mewed that the chain of evidence, the validity of which was fee their Lardlidps to appreciate, was dearly in favour of the Claimant.

The CMANCELLOR of the Eye Nagy ea moved the Order of the Day for the Houle to refolve itfelf iuto a Committee of the whole Honfe, in order to con fider fat-titer of Vs'ays and Means for railing the Sopplies granted to his Majefty. The Houle b as i ng accordin:;:y i; AI into the laid Committee, The C-4nscittrie t.t the EXCIOVER addre:fed the Chairman to the following effea : .6 Sir, As I (hall be obliged to trefpalv at frune length in the tfatements and oblervations I have to up on the attention, and, I may add, the indulgence of the Houle, I fha;: ahftain f;om fubmitting any privoft- Lions or rot:arks, except Inch as tutors:lly and ge sso ally ar;:e out of the Wij e as to which it is my duty to coatine onyfelf. I Sian afsflain from entering in to the particulars of the fituatinti in whkh we are unavoidably placed, and which have this day intp(Qi ed u Y .nl me t!:e neceirarv, hot painf u l ,loty of for the co.overatiml and rtie,nive I,:rpt , rt of t!le coon try.

It will, I hope, be fuffi dent f u r me t o t!tat it is the eon...hia of th e French b is placed' us in a fitua. tion that calls upon o, :.‘r ample means to meet the exigencies of the I. vice. From thefe circum fiances, we are :17:On trci lied to make great exer tions; and the lina• - e o; Commons having given, by their vote to his LT:l:izfly. a folcnm aftUrance and determination to concar w i h his NI tjclty, in every means tending to the fu l l-sort and honnut ofhiscrown, and the interefis of his people, it becomes lefs in cumbent upon me to call the attention of Gentlemen to theetice of the con eft in which we are involved. The 'wedge into which the Houle then entered, and by which they bound themfelves, was not lightly given ; it was given as the refult of mature confider ation. and it was founded on motives of a molt irre (Able kind. It was laid at the font of the throne as a faired fecutity, that we were willing and ready to carry the determination which it announced, into prompt and complete execution. We are therefore called then to summon all our efforts, to put forth all our fortitude, and to realize the affurances which in that vote we gave to his Majelty. I know, Sir, nor is it in the flights'' degree my intention to con ceal the taFt, that it will be necelfary for us to under go material privations, to fubruit to unufttal inconve niences, and to make great and extensive fitcrifices.— We have an enemy to contend Wth, who has coolly calculated the ftrength of our refonrces, who has ef dmated the nature of our force, and weighed the ex tent of our means. We have an enemy to contend with, w hol e tlrength, refnrcc% an.i means, are fully known to us, and of whoa. !ivied and perfidy we can have but one opinion. We are therefore called upon to ripple him with a fpidt, magnanimity, vi gour, and perseverance, equal to the arduoufnefs and dangers of the occasion. In thus oppoling him, we mull leave no efforts untried that can fecure our file. ccfs, and encore our triumph ; and it is with a refer ence to that lyllem of condo.% without which we can not indeed hope for the honourable iffue of the con tell, that I have formed a plan for giving energy to our exertions, which I !hall now have the honour of fubmitting to the confideration of the Houfe. I (hall, however, fiat, Sir, with the permifflon of the Com mittee, enter into all the particulars of the fupplies that have been voted, and next into the particulars of the Applies that remain to be provided for. The firtt article which occurs is, the euflumary article of the Navy, which, including the ordnance of the lea vice, amounts to the (um of 10,02400 d. The Cum voted for the army is 8,721,8491.; the extraordina ries for the fame branch of the public fervice are two millions, and the extraordinaries for the preceding year, which have not been provided for, are 4032,1511. From there various items it will appear, that the whole of the film voted for the army efta blilhment is 14754,0301. ; the ordnance I take at 4280,6001. It is propofed to apply to the Houk for a vote of credit for two millions, but I have to remark that in that vote of credit Ireland is to be included. With refpea to that part of the fupplies which relates to the corn bounties, they amount to 5240300 L and the mifcellaneous articles are to be taken at the Arm of 4300,0001. If all there sums be taken together, they will be found to give a total of twenty-fix mil liens, eight hundred and seventy-nine thoufand pounds, which form the joint charge of England and Ireland. It is, however, neceffary fur me to mention, under the various heads, the feparate charges for Eng land, and in the &It place I'have to notice the deft eieney in the malt duty for the year 1804 which amounts to 118,8401. Next follows the deficiency in the Ways and Means for 1803, amounting to 1714311. and for the American awards the Aim of 330,0001. has been voted. It will appear by the ac counts which are now on the table, that in conk quence of tranfaetionswhich have taken place between. this Country and the Ealt-Indi a Government. that a confiderable balance is due, and I (hall slate the Emit- India repayments at one million. On the fubjc of that branch of the fupply relative to Exchequer Bills, the fum of 2,78 hoccl. has been voted to pay off the Exchequer Bills of the 4.1 ft of his Majefly, while to pay off the interelt of thofe billed in 1798, the fum of 920,4081. has been appropriated. As to the Exchequer Bills in paffeffinn of the Bank, the fum of 4500,0004. will be recelfary to pay them off. It eonfequently follows, that the whole of the feparate charges for England amounts to 6,821,6791. and the total of the fupplies to 33,700,6791. From this total we are to make the dedullion which is according to the At of Union chargeable to Ireland. Two-feventeenths of the joint charges of England and Ireland are to be contributed by Ireland, making the fum of 3, t 6a,2351. ; and Om is ebb to contribute two feventeenths of the Civil Lill, and other charges on the Confnlidated Fund, not re lating to the Public Debt, to the amount of 140,241. which taken together and &doffed from the total of the (applies. will leave the firm of 30,398.2201. pay able on account of England, and for which we are now called upon to provide.

The Ways and Means wiling from the Malt Duty, I take at 75c,c001. and out of the vote paired for railing four millions of Exche quer Bills, there is Rill a very confiderabic part of them not yet iffued ; and in dating the amount at three millions, it mull be confidered as applicable to the Ways and Means of the prefent year. The fur plus of the Confolidated Fund to the sth of April 1804, is in the eilimate made of it, founded upon the aatial produce of the Taxes to the sth of Apia 1803, and when I take it at 6,500,0001. the fum at wl.ich it is rated in the Ways and Means, I feel my (Cif per fealy jutlifled by the accounts which are now laid upon your table. In estimating the furplos of the Confolidated Fund at 6,5oo,c)ool. I mull, however, obferve, that it is not my intention to auk the Com mittee to come to a vote upon that filbjea zo night, but met ely to take credit for the for, leaving thz eibmate open for future difcnflion. I have fufficient grounds from the Papers which I hold in my hand, to fatisfy the Houle as to the col reay.efs of the elli mate, but I will not, in the prefent Rage, trouble Gentlemen with details which it may be neccffary to bring forward on a future day. On the fubjea of the Bank advances, I (hall not fay much, htt [ entertain hopes that the Bank will accept of Exchequer Bills to the amount which the exigency of the public fee vice may require. I hope the outflandh.g Bills will not be increafed by thole accepted by the Bank. I certainly cannot fpeak with confidence upon this point, but I troll it will not be going too far, in Rating as a part of the Ways and Means, the fum of one million and a half to be railed by Exchequer Bills in aid of 1804, in order to pay off thofe in the poffelfion of the Bank, on aids of 1803. With relpeet to the money which Rill remains in the Exchequer undif pofed of for bounties to be given on the growth of hemp and flax , the amount is 37,7821. The Lottery I have not yet alluded to, and although I with to avoid mentioning a fpecific fum, yet it may be fairly eflimated at a total, not lets than from three to four hundred thoufand pounds. I have now, Sr, to pro. pole to the Committee, taxes.which are to be derived from augmentations on the Ezell. and Cullom, and which are to be paid for fix months. When the advantages derived by the Weft India merchants and proprietors from the colonies during the war are tall 4 fidered. I believe Gentlemen will agree with me, that there cannot be a fairer objea of taxation than the article of Sugar. , It is now become an article of neceffity, and we may jolly expea to poffefs the mo nopoly, and command the fupply of it to the reit of the world during the continuance of war. I, there- fore, beg leave to ptopofe, that on the Confolidated Cuttoms of Sugar, there be laid an addition of four (billings per cwt. or an increase of so per cent. ad valorem on the duty. I alto beg leave to recommend to the Committee an increafe 1 2f per cent. ad valorem, on all articles of Cuffmns, with the exception of Cot ton Wool, Tea, and Wine, which I beg leave to be underfiond are objeas of feparate taxation. The ellimated produce of theft taxes is one million three hundred thoufand pounds. I with the Committee to underhand, that in making the exception of Tea, Cotton Wool, and Wine, they Mould be charged under the duties of Excite. Copfidering, as we are bound to do, how the trade add manufaaures of this coun try will be placed in the poffeffion of a monopoly of the would during the continuance of the coined, not withßanding every exertion, every attempt to ex clude them, I think I Mould be extremely wrong, if I were Wit of opinion that a confiderable (apply for the exigencies of the public fervice could be drawn from them. I therefore, Sir, beg leave to propofe that one per cent. ad valorem be laid on all ouch articles exported to Europe, and three per cent. on thole exported to all other parts of the world. In forming an climate of the produa, I feel myfelf juf tified in (toting it four hundred and tiny thoufand pounds. An application was made by the cotton ma- 1 nufafturers to take off the duty on exports of that nature, and to have it laid on the raw materials ; and it is propofed to lay a duty of one penny per M. on cotton wool exported. with the exception of manu faaured cotton. The ellimated produce of this re gulation is taken at the fum of two hundred and fifty '1 thoufand pounds. There is another article, and it is, the lait article of Cullom' which I conceive may be very fairly charged doling the war, I mean the Ton nage Duty, and I ettimate it at one hundred and fifty thoufand pounds. Thus the whole of the fum to be derived from Culloms amounts to 2, t6oboool. RICIIPITULATION.

The next branch on which I (hall prop nfe to the Committee the means of deriving a confiderable fource of folpply, is the Excite. It is not my purpofe to inereafe the num ber of articles already fubjed to it, or to extend the propfedmeafure to the fmaller articles to which the F.xcile is at precept dire.tcd, but I than fuggeft four principal objets as the founts of great additional re venue. The &II article which prefents itf.lf is Tea, and I hoye that while means may he taken to prevent the fair trader from being defrauded by the fniuggler, it will prove very produCtive. 1 beg leave to propnle that 15 per cent. ad valetym be laid upon the co:fifer tea, and that 45 per cent. ad valorem be laid upon the lhier forts. produce of this I egn i a :;,t o I v iii. mat e ,it one million. three hundied thourand pounds. The nest article which I (hall int - Tore to charge with an addi:ional ditty is that if Wine,and I conceive that no ohjeetion will be made to fuch an inci cafe. Ia tLe sear 795. no lefs than tol. per ton was added, and the c,iii.o.niption was not lelfened, while the rsve nue if the Conntry was molt materially benefited.— I therefore pi optic a ditty equal to the duty in ;795, of 101. per ton, and the eftimated produce is (fated at half a million. Some of the fame reau.n; h a v e led me to proproe an additional -duty on tco, have induced me to prepare a limilar charge en hc.nie and foreign made Spirits. The pi-dent ditty soiddis of ss. id. per gallon : and I propofe an additional ditty equal to on • half, or 5o per emu ad vr.' , The produce of this addition I thir.k aryl - cif jutWitt'. in "•• !red thou". potinds. 111 we la:L., :lir, to an „ddit, duty, whichl fed • .-rcrne rclu.:: in propoii:', nor tJn i:, ut,ie f. 1 werc h LI, comp e ;,..; by the fenfe of the is is ineurrli.: • upon me to difeliatge.

Under there eircumflances 1 have to in'a mit to your confideration a meafure whie.h will ise very extenfive in its operation. It is one which is founded upon the principles of the Income which though it has been on former occafions cm. - demned by tome individuals, yet I am convinced i: was not, and will not be complained of by the gene ral feni'e of the country. It was during Lilt war a very great means of carrying this country through many of its difficulties, by fupporting the public ere dit. lam certain too, that no one who la crud that meafure at that time was infenfible to the va rious obje&ions to which it would be liable s bat, Sir, I would with to know what mode can, on any occa lion, be adopted fur the purpofe of adding to the re venue of the country, which is not liable to great and weighty objeaions ? NotwithQanding all that can flitted againfl fuels a meafure, however, I cote/tam thong hopes and expeaations that I (hall be able to fuggetl a plan which will meet with the acquiefeence and approbation of all ranks in this kingdom. when the purpofes for which it is now brought forth ate properly confidered. I mean the neceffity of adopt ing, on the prefent occafion,fome vigorous and effec tual means of alerting the honour and independence of the country. One of the greatefi inconveniences which could be attributed to the late income tax was, the neceffity and hardfhip it impored on individual.. in making a full difclofure of the amount of their to:- tunes. However flmilsr the meafure which I am about propofe may be to the tax which I have to, that inconvenience will in this be in a great mesa fore obviated. I (hall, them-fore, now fubmit to the Hoare a (ketch or outline of the plan, which I conceive will have in the prefent critical conjunaure thofe be neficial effeas. I mean, Sir, by the tax which lam now alsout to fubmit to the confideration of the Houle, to make a diltinaion between that Ipecies of ptoperty, the value of which is in a manner filed and deter mined to the proprietor, without depending upon (kit' and induflry, and on that rpecies of property, which depends upon (kill and induary alaac Er its acq went.

The poffelfor of property of this firit dercription may be relieved from the neceffity of dif cloftirc hut under the other fp:cies of property. which comprehends the acquirements arifing foam particular trades, indu(lry, and talent., a fet of indi viduals, quite different from the. former, but, na doula, very numerous, mull neceffarily be under the ficcedity of bringing forward their refpeaive incomes under the view of certain Commitlioners. Such a ftep cannot, even in this cafe, be furmounted ; but la it be recolleaed that, in the formor cafe, their pedals went before Commit:Goners under circa' m fiance s Nlll, h itrengthened the objections; but, in the precut ra es thefe Commidioners were to be put under inch re flriaions as would narrow the oljeaions again( it. — The tax which I would propoft. to Are& property of the frit def:iiption lhould be laid on the rent of according to its net value, a; far as it can be ak. tained ; and I will be able to fiae,. , :a a mode of doi.az fo, without any fleecing. or 'ilk oa ; I flo uld propofe a tax of is. per pound chargeable upon 0-e proprietor, and 9d. in the f ound chargeable aga,:.l the tenant, or occupier in Eryl.: there the let,o p..id the poor•ratcs, alt-..-.lt without exception ; I 't i;;;;coti.toti, where the rent was c.mparatively high'''. becaule 1 , u - 1r-rates c: e n paid by the tenan'.
