determination the Committee would come to, he could not fay. His claim arif2s from a difputed einftruelion of the treaty between England and America, and before thefe two nations can agree, Mr. Martin's finances are likely to be entirely worn out. Amonga the unfortunate perfons who loft the greateft part of their property in the difpute with America, Mr. Martin's family may be reckoned one that was placed in that unhappy fituation. His claim had been referred to the confideration of the Commiaioners for thirteen years, during which time Mr. Martin has ufed every means in his power to obtain redrefs. His claim appealed to the humanity, as %cell as the jullice of the Houfe, and it can eventually be no leafs to the Public. It would be extremely bard indeed if an individual were under the neceliity of delaying, perhaps for his whole life, making good fuch a pa claim as this. The Committee would perceive that if he was entitled to principal be was alfo en titled to intereft ; and he thought the liberality of the Chancellor of the Exchequer would induce him to difpenfe with the ufual demand of fees.— He concluded by moving, That a fun not exceeding 52,6501. be granted to his Ma yfly to enable him to make good that fool to indemnify Mr . Mirth' for the lots he has fultaim.4." The CH ANC LLot of the EXCHEOMIR laid, that the Hon. Gentleman had fairly and clearly hated the cafe rcpeaing this Gentleman's claim, which was a very throng one indeed, not only on the hu manity but jullice of the Knife. He admitted the whole of the cafe as Rated in the Petition, which he begged the Committee to keep in mind, had been referred to the Commiffioners ; who, not thinking themfelvesauthorifed to allow the claim, had exprefsly recommended this Gentleman to pe• tition Parliament for that purpofe. He thought the Committee ought to make him the mob ample amends for all the injuries he had fultained during the whole period. It is clear, that if his claim had been fettled by the Commiffioners, there would have been no fees to pay. He heartily joined with the Commiaioners in thinking the claim of this Gentleman a jolt one.—.

A Minifierial Paper of this morning, fpeaking of the Manifeilo which appeared in our Paper Of yellerday, after Rating that it is impotrible to read it without being impreffed with the conviction that the Cu: sr Cos SUI• is determined upon a renewal of the war, remarks that— "His declarations are explicit as his atm& of our Goiernment is coarfe and unjull. The Britith 14i:tillers are accufed of "Dillionefiy,of avowed en mity to the French Nation, of perjury. and a dc(re of publicly violating a folemn Treaty." Thefe are heavy charges; but we are fully fatisfied, will re coil upon the perfon that makes them in every par ticular. The CHlCVCurtsot. complains of the Paper War which has been carried on with fo much via lence forfo many months. In any rernarkswhich we have made upon the meafures of the French Go vernment, wt have as much as poifible avoided all perfonal refleelion upor. the ludividual; but where the rule of Government is the will of that Indivi dual, a pcifonal application of general remarks aimed follows of cootie. That perfon teems de termined that the War ( b all no longer be confined to Paper, but that the, " avowed enmity" of France to this Country (ball be recorded in Bk•el Be it fo: All that part of Europe that dare pro nounce an opinion, will judge which, in this, as in the former cafe, is the Aggrelfor.—The War we (hall have to wage will be for Exillence, and it will chiefly depend, under the favour of I'lu:roost:cf, upon our OAII unanimity and exer tions. whether the iffue (hall be glorious to us or not. It is that we may pnffefs that onani mity and Inecefs, t‘iit we etairt the Mien, in tat tetreotiw Gowriineeito, of theft Went: and prirqise dmri,or impart:titbit dsnv j fi. peril: and ten year: oicrdtit sw.:rpire, prckrwd to at me from the horror, .1 . Amy/idiom s and reefed we reforms god me egr7l t, a pitch ovelaidlei in our ~al:. In this u lilt. we believe, ye are fopported, not only by a gi,:at majority of the Nation, but by areal am; at Vi of the pietas Mistier. The upright -1.0 if of deer intentions (the imajorit)' of the jorifiest . 1 1 =ma), the real love they bear their ‘.nintr), the pi iu:iples which they have uniformly ; 1.1:(1:11, and a limilarity of mind and fentiment. them with the ma to whom the eyes of the Nati:Aare dikes wowed wegiefill hawed. The meafures et the prefect Miniltry, u far as that great man's t.tirpsuts are publicly knows. have received his ATM and uuquali6ed approbation sad fupport. He approved of the Peace which the Minillers made, becaufe he thought that Peace was ne:effary to and anzioully detired by the country, and becaufe that, even with fu ch a Government as exiled in France, the experiment of Peace was worth the trial That Peace was made, we rejoiced at the time, and we now as fincerely rejoice. Short as it has been, the Nation has had a breathing time, and we (hall now enter upon the War, if War we mull have, upon ground which the moil inveterate and malignant Oppofitionill will find it impollible to mifreprefent or condemn. Unlike an Es War Mi filler, and his little band of Blood Hounds, we are not the Advocates for war, much lets for Eter nal War-6:llmin Out ad isternmiatem—bin we are pre pared to defend, to the lafl drop of our blood, the Rights and Independance ofour Country. If we are thus then to fight for our all, we furely may be showed to exprefs a with to be concluded in the Ficld by thole Leaders whom we love. Let Mr. PITT, Mr. ADDINGTON, Lord HAWICCSBURY, Lord MELVILLE, and a few others whom we could name, dired the Affairs of the Nation, and we (hall think. not only our tartly infarct!, but our Viltory certain."—Trot We prefent the above extra& merely to thew what is the belief and wilh of certain individuals at the prefent moment repelling Come new arrange. ments in the Adminiliration. Whether the attempt to bring Mr. PITT into power will fucceed is very uncertain, and the reports on this fubjell are va rious. The early vifit of Mr. ADDINcrow to the KING, on Friday fe'nnight, related, it is fald, to this Wind's. Mr. ADDINGTON Rated to His Ma /I;sr y the neceflity of Ilrengthening the Cabinet, and the Ktwo is laid to have agreed to any change that Ihould leave Mr. Anoimoyom his Prime Ms nifer. Since that period, an alive negotiation has been carried on with Mr. PITT, who yields ra! then to the prehling defire of friends than to his own inclination. He will not come into power till else prefent Negotiation with France is terminated. It is thought he will be Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs : Lord Ga am mt.:, for the Home Department : and Lord Haweasavay, for the Colonies. Lord MEtvi Ls' will be Firft Lord of the Admiralty: and the Earl of Ross Ls , so, Privy Seal, or Prefident of the Council. Mr. ADDING TON will remain Firtl Lord of the Treafury, if not Chancellor of the Exchequer alto, and he will be the agent between the Cabinet and the !Com.— Should the prefent negociations with France ter minate in peace, thefe changes, it is thought, will not take place, as the GRINTILLII party will not probably accede to the conceffsons Mr. ADDING row may make, and Mr. Pirr content to. In that cife, the prefent Minillers will fill have to defend 'heir pacific fylleas ; but by the prefent negotiation with Mr. Pm, they will recut* his fupport, and they will blunt the oppofition of his Mends. Ia the event of a war, the changes we have mentioned will, it is alerted, be immediately announced.— Poilibly Earl Si. iftacter may be driven from his poll earlier. The Rate of the negotiation is Rill preferved a profound fecret. It is ear'', however, to fee that things are now coming to fuck a critic that it can not long be fo. The opinion teems to gain ground, among thole who, we think, porefs the beR means to enable them to form a correct judgment, that the matters in difpute will only be fettled by an appeal to arms. We know indeed that tome ia aividitals, deeply interelled in the Übe, have two. ceeded to Paris, to wind up their tranfaelicns with that city, from a thorough conviction, that a de. lay of only a few weeks more would expore the property they have there to the danger of being placed in a Rate of fequearation. This day we received Paris Journals to the sth inftant. They contain nothing refpeaing the Lite of the negotiation ; but tome of the details retina ,l ing the movements of troops in France and the Sifter Republics are interefting ; as are alto forme of the articles from other parts of the Continent. At no period of hiilory have we heard of fo many fovereigns about to quit their own States, in order to vifit other countries, and to converfe with other princes. Letters from Peteriburgh Rate, that the Emperor Asa:arum is making every preparation for a journey, which he means to undertake in the month of June. The ESITINOS of OILMAN! intends alto to undertake a tour to different parts of Germany, and great preparations are already making at Drefden to receive him.— On the other hand, a tour of the Keno of SWIDIN to Bavaria, and the MARGIIIAVISTS of BADIP. is announced, and it is raid that he will vilit the Court of Berlin in his way. It appears that there diffe rent tours will take place at the fame time that the FIRST CONSUL of France pays a viGt to the OM United Departments. The Eleaor of Bavaria has publifhed an Ordi nance. by which, in confequence of the 35th and ,ssd paragraphs of the General Ravers of the Deputa tion, though that piece has not yet been poblillted as a fundamental law of the Empire, be announces the fuppreCion of all the convents and mediate ecclefiailical corporations belonging to the States of Bavaria.

French troops in Switzerland arc intended for the Cone Jellination. The fituation of affairs between France and England has, it is laid, induced the FIRST Cos sot to atremble a confiderable force in the forithern parts of Italy. The Centrals of Divifion KLIIIII, PULLY, CHA tier, and V VXDIER, as well as the Generals of Bri gade F►oßtr.ta, Q , Murat% and Lt. stress, hare joined the French army of Italy, ; other Generals will repair thither abb. We are Rill unacquainted with the nature of the differences which feem to craft between France and England, but it is certain that they are, and will be abro. lately foreign to Germany, which is of great ins. pomace for the repofe of Europe.

Hrw erer, we learn, by letters from Breda, thnt the headquarters of the French auxiliary troops, in the pay of the &clarion Repriblic, now in that place, expeel to receive orders to proceed to forte other place.

In the morn ing Colonel Monvcousar (better known by the name of the Duke of Hamilton's Double) mounted his celebrated grey mare at the door of his c.&re Artie in Mancheller.ftreet, and, accompanied by a Newfoundland dog, named Wolf, fet off to take his ride. After flitting the different Meets of fa. fhionabk retort, the Colonel took a turn in Hyde Park, where unfortunately the Coconac's dog quarrelled u and fought with a dog belonging to Mac &&&&& A.
