The French Funds continue their progress up w•arda. At one time on Tuesday, the 5 per Cents. were 74f. l Oc. and they closed at 73f. 90e. ; thus yield ing already a tolerable profit fur the contractors for the Loan. These Papers contain a convention 'Concluded between Louis XVIII. and his Sicilian Majesty, which was ratified as far bads as the 6th of March, 1817. The object of the Treaty is to remedy in behalf of the latter Sovereign, certain inconveniences which arc felt by his subjects in their financial, maritime, and commercial interests, from the existence of various privileges and exemptions claimed and enjoyed by Frenchmen. His Most Christian Majesty, therefore, consents to abolish al the privileges and exemptions which his subjects, their commerce, and their ships enjoy, is the Sicilian Jorts, in virtue of the Treaty of the Pyrenees, that of Aix-La-Chapelle, 1668, and subsequent ones, provided that his Sicilian Majesty does not allow similar privi ;eges to any other nation. I lis Sicilian Majesty further tneages,that the subjects of France shall not be liable to more strict duties or search, than are exercised to wards his own subjects; and the commerce of France 414 to be put upon a tooting with that of the most favoured nations. The fifth article provides fir the personal privileges and protection of French subjects P•siding in the Sicilian States. Dv the seventh, his Sicilian Majesty engages to make; in favour of France, ari dating from the day -of the publication of this Treaty, a reductica of 10 per cent. upon the ann'uat of imp art duties aud taxes payable according to the tariff of Jan. is', 1816. His Sicilian Majesty. howev,..-, reserves the right of granting a similar relief to the commerce of other nations, if he shall see fit to do so, A sep.trate article is Adetl, explaining more precisely the amount of reduction contemplated, and anodic: - separate article, dated the Ist of the present month. reciprocally abolishes the druid d'aubailie, and other siosilio.r claims, over the property, &c. of fore*nir3. TIM NATIONAL nrGsTrn. Paris Papers rf Soodny last rytve come to band. On Saturday, betiire Mass, the Duke of ‘VelliaL:ton had a privat.i audience of iris ,liijesty Canatois Lc maire, who has for three months been detained in tire prison of the Itladclonettcs, to iniplictited in the att.:lnpt to assassint.te his Gr has bean set at liberty. These Papers contain an extract from a will of the late Prima: of Conde, dated Wr anstead, SO6 ; in which, aster thanking the Almighty for preserving him amidst the hurrurs of the Revolution, he prays the King not to forget the comttancy t.rul valour of his companions in arms, thanks God that he has not the smallest idea of vengeance against his ene:nies, and hopes that the. mercy and cletrum,•y of the King will sooner or later bring them back to these principles which can alone make France happy and tranquil. " Although it may be honourable, he continuer, to be bark,' at Westmin ster, yyt I positively demand to be interred amorr the French Emigrants faithful to God and to their ICtri." The Count de Noinville died lately at Paris, rt.:, , ed 30 years. He was the companion in arms of the late Prince of Conde, and a descendant, by the mother's side, of that " mirror of knighthood." Bayard, the " fearless and irreproachable." The disputes su long subsisting *between Bavaria and Baden are said to be smeothei away through the me diation of Amtril. A telegraphic clispaoch r.nnoincel on Satin-lay, that Bastide,..lausier 4:lllard,were cx , atited ;:n the pre ceding Wednesday at Aibi, for the murder of the Sicur Fualdes. The dispatches from India, were pelilished on ' on day in a supplement to the London Gazette ofSatitt- , day. The principal military transaction related is the battle between Sir Thomas Hislop end the army of e Holkar, on the '2lst of last December This engage ment was over iu three hours, and ended in the cap ture of the whole of the enemy's artillery, and the entire defeat and dispersien cf his army, with a loss of' 3,000 men. The cueduct of Brigadier Gen. Sir JAn Malcolm, who commanded the advance under Sir T. Hislop, and led the assault on the left of the enemy's line, called forth from his Excellency the highest en comituns, and the warmest admiration of the whole British army. The greater part of the proceedings of General Doveton against the forces of the liajah of Berur, which finally resulted in the capture of Nag poor, and in the submission of the whole country to our arms, have been fur some time before the public. T. c less, however, sustained by Gen. Doveton in an un successful attack upon the palace of Nagpoor, appears more serious than we had been prepared to expect The attempt to storm beine h made on the 21th of Dec. was completely repulsed by the Arabs, and other troops in the service of the Rajah, who killed and wounded above 300 of our men, including 04 Europeans and 10 officers. On the 30th of December the Arab gar rison evacuated the city, on certain conditions, when it was forthwith occupied by the British troops. Our Government, as was stated in former dispatches was in possession of the Rajah s person. In addition to the facts cetuumnicated by the Gazette, the Calcatta Gazette of the .el of February, presents ac -1 counts of a series of distinct successes obtained by de tachments of the British troops over many of the Pin darree Chieftains, to the northward of the river Ner budda. Headed in all direction; and almast surrounded by the co-operating divisions of the Generals Dunkin, Marshal Sir William Keir, and Colonel Adam, the Pindarrees, with the loss of much of their baggage, he took themselves towards Holkar's camp: hut having intelligence of the treaty negociuted by that leader with the British Government, they moved to Rampeora, where it is said, they were attacked by General Brown, and dispersed without resistance. Cheetoo, the richest and mast pewerCu'_ of these plunderers, whose imme diate followers lied had a principal share in the former invasion of the British territories, was attacked by Sir William keir on the 6th ef .January, where lie lust five guns and a portion of his baggage. The main body of the Pindarrees were reported to have fled in the direc tion of Oudeypoor. Cheetoes force was said to have been beaten and plundered near Shapoorah, where his brother was taken prisoner, and he himself escaped with only nine fiAlowers. General Smith had an action with Appagee, a Surdar of the Peishwe's, who dud, but in vain, to the tort of Chemeenta The fort was carried by escalade, when Appagee, with several other officers, were made prisoners ; and 70 guns, 8:3 elephants. a number of fine horses, and great quantities of treasure were taken. In no park of India does it appear from these statements, that any formidable opposition aul menaced the projects of herd Hastings ; nor, indeed, • should we supiose that the victories of our arms had • left leech more in the way of hard fightiog to be ap prehended throughout the continent of India. The Eleventh Belm: from the Finance Committee has been printed Ly °Hie of the House of Cumulous. It contains the result of the inquiries by the Committee on the actuoi receipts and expenditure of 1817, and the probable estimates of the present and the ensuing ye:- The first view presented in the Report sheet-, the de crease in the reccip:, mid the increase ie the expendi ture, for the year 1817, as compared with the esti mates of the Finanu Committee contained in the JUNT IS ,I1r••..1•11111 Fourth Report. This is no very flattering picture, either of the state of the finances of the country, or of the exertion of roisters to reduce the expenditure within the income; nor is the prospect very much hrightTzed with regard to the present year, far the pm bablo expenditure tbr 1818 is ant only equal to the re... teal expenditure of 1817, Iplt exceeds, hy nearly Oar:: millions, the estimate of the Cenunittrae. The Repose, however, endeavours to raise our spirits, by represent ing u proiraba excess of' revenue for 1819. It supposes the entire expenditure fur the year entlin4 the sth of January, 1820, will amouut to fili3OtiB.ooo!. in which is in:gilded fbr the reduction of the National Debt, 14,961,0001. leaving 31,087,0,9 ns the amount of ex. penitits.re, exclusive of the Sinking Fund, which, be ing compared with the estimated revenue, amounting to 52,5W,0001. there will ap, ear to be a balance of 1,41J,0001. of income beyond the probable expenditure This result is iudependent of any extraordinary charge. Wednesday, in consequence of the Regent going in . state to prorogue the Parliament, the Imperial Crown • was removed from the Tower of London to the House of Peers. The streets from the Horse Guards to the Parliament [louse, were covered with gravel ; and the State Atte:is:it:its were assembled at t-A. James's Palace sonn after one o'clock. The Prince Regent arrived in his private carriage at the Palace about half-past one o'clock. His Reytd Highness was received by the Lord Steward of the Household ; Lord Amherst as Lord its Waiting; Sir John Craddock, Groom in Waiting ; the Master of the Horse, the Master of the Robes, &c. There were four carriages and six, ones with a set of beautiful Meek horses, and three with bays decorated with crimson ribands. The eight beautiful cream co loured horses were decorated on their maues and harness with light blue ribands. Heger. wore a Fall Marshai's uniform, decorated with his numerous Oislers. He ‘s se attended in the state carriage by the Doke of Montrose, as Master of the Horse, and Lord Amherst. as the Lord iw Waiting. The procession began to move from Palace-yard at a quarter befbre two o clock, the band of the Guards playing God save 11w King. The weather being remarkahly tine, a greater concourse of people were assembled than we recollect on any furnace occasion. His Royal Highness entered the House of Peers at six minutes after two o'clo,k, which was announced by a royal salute of cannon being dis charged by a signal from the roof of the House of Peers to the Lambeth shore. His Royal Highness returned from the I louse and entered the state carriage at 25 minutes before three o'clock and the procession re turned to St. James's Palace in the same order as it went, and was generally cheered by the populace. His Royal Highness seemed oppressed by the heat : but otherwise appeared in very good health and spirits The new King of Sweden. in his speech to the States, on the 20th ult. laid down the policy which be intends hereafter to pursue. " My object," he observed, " will be, to place you in the scale of a happy, ra her than of a conquering nation.—" Our policy and interest," he ontinued, " will induce us never to interfere with Fo reign States, while any duty and your di g nity teach that we should never permit any fbreign interference with our own affitirs." These are promises :aid truths which cannot be denied ; but history furnish, san in structive lesson upon the good intentions of Kings. I he arrival of Major Moodie, with dispatches for Lord Bathurst, from Sir H. Lowe, at St. Helena, has excited some speculation in the City, coincident as it is with the account of the landing of a sailor at that island. The sailor had been one of the crew of the Northumberland man of war, which car ritd Buonaparte from Eurape to St. Helena, and its that situation had formed as scquaintance with Buena parw's servants. This sailor afterwards became one of the crew of an East Indiaman, which being at St. He lena, the sailor, in the night, contrived to swim from the vessel, clamber up the rocks, visit, and pass some hours smily among Buonaparte's domestics. This he did two several nights ivithont being discovered or noticed ; but in conversation on board of ship he boasted of his adroitness, and told confidentially to his mess mates what he had done Knowledge of the transac tion transpired: he was arrested and examined, and conducted home to England in confinement ; but it has not appeared that he had any sinister intention, or more in view than an innocent frolic. It is not be lieved Buonaparte knew of his being among his servants. However. the occurrence is supposed to have demon strated the possibility of Buonaparte s escape on board of any English vessel, the Captain of which might be inclined fir a bribe, or otherwise, to convey him to Europt! or America. Indeed, it is reported several such occurrences have taken place at St. Helena, as have iodated Sir Hudson Lowe to declare to the Go vestment at home. that it vessels are allowed to conic to i hat island as a present, he carnot answer for the security of his pri oner. It is reported in the city that Major Moodie is come home to make representations lon this sulject, and it is sup i •nse another place of re- Ifreshment will be assigned tin. our East I ntliamoi. tuarrilge of his Itoral Highness the Duke of Kent with the Princess Dowager of Leiningett took place ou Friday se
