The Militia 'Jfficers Augmentation Bill, the Excise Duty Regulation Bill, the Addition Excise Duty Bill, &c. were read the third time and passed. Ordered to the Commons. Brought up from the Commons the Additional Scotch Army Bill, the Woollen Manufalure Bill, the Southern Whale Fishery Bill, the new Clergy Residence Bill, which were read a first time. Several petitions against the Woollen 111anuladure Bill. were received, and leave Was given to the pctitiOners to be heard by their Counsel against it. Ordered, on the motion of the Lehi Chancellor, that a message the sent to the Coin mons, requesting them to communicate a Copy of the Evidence, upon which they passed the Bill. Ad journed until Monday. • HOUSE OF COAIMONS. saTuanav, tuts '2.. Mr. WICKii M rose to propose a measure for -see rdiefof Militia-men's families in Ireland, while the men were absent on duty. The reason why he 3 not sooner brought it forward on the same foot as a similar provision in England, was, that the same class of civil officers for carrying it into ead did not exist in Ireland. By this flit, it was in tended, in order to prevent fraud upon the public bounty, that no person claiming as the wife or child of a Militia-man would be entitled to such, without producing a certificate from the Colonel of the Re giment, that the Militia-man, whether ballotted, a volunteer, or a substitute, declared upon oath such persons to be his wife (.r child, at the time of his attestation. He then moved for and obtained leave to bring in the Bill. Sir H. MILDMAY wished to know from the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if Tuesday next was not the day for the debate on the Income Tax. The Chancellor of the Exchequer answere.l, that it was the objed to consolidate the Income and Land Tax Bills into one ; he should on Tuesday move pre forma, that the House resolve itself into a Committee, with previous instructions to consoli date both Bills, and in this form the Bill to be re printed, and debated on the Monday following. Mr. BASTARD wished to know from the Right Hon. Gentleman, if the tax on land was meant as a tax upon the net income, or one upon the value of the land. The Chancellor of the Exchequer declined an explicit answer, as not at this moment. orderly. IRISH MALT AND DISTILLERIES. ALEXANDEII moved for leave to bring in a Bill for the better Collection of the Duties on Malt, and the better Regulation of Distilleries in Ireland, Mr. CORRY detailed at considerable length, the objeets . of this Bill, as not going to extract any in , crease of duty whatever, but merely to establish a more efficient mode of colledion, the better to pre vent frauds on the revenue ; and as much for the advantage of the fair trader, as for the crown : the objet of those regulations were, to enable the gauger to place malt in the best mode of fairly as certaining its quantity, by gauging in couch instead of :to; and to empower the Commissioners of Revenue to make such reduction as to them should seem just, from the annual charge upon the size of the drying kilns: to prevent malsters from mix ing malt of other men's manufacture with their own ; to prevent malsters from dealing in malt, nut of their own manufacture, without a malt-factor's licence; to impose a penalty on distillers when spi rits in stock shall be deficient in comparing with the officer's returns; and to levy fines upon town lands, where clandestine stills shall be found, or when spirits shall be retained without a licence, to be recovered by Civil Bill. Lave given to bring in the Bill. IRISH LOAN. Mr. CORRY gave notice, that he should, in the Committee of Ways hid Means, on Monday, move for a provisional permission to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, to raise one million by Exchequer Bills, by loan from the Bank of Ireland, in case the loan for that sum already voted to be raised in Irel:ind should not be filled upon reasonable terms. Ad journed until Monday. FOREIGN lATELLIGENCE. Crnom TILE MONITEUt.] PARIS, 29TH JULY. Nothing appears to us more curious to observe, at the present moment, than the comparative atti tude of France and England. France armed for the preservation of an old independent state, and of an order of nobility ; England for its annihilation and destralion. France claiming in the face of Europe the faith of treaties and the rights of na tions ; England sporting with the one and the other, and not fearing to borrow from the revolution ary spirit its proceedings, its frenzy, even to its lan guage, and its forces ! Let us be alloWed to dwell for a moment -upon this assimilation. We think it deserves serious attention.—There is no one who has not heard of the complaints of England,-relative to the changes which have taken place since the Treaty of Amiens, in the state of the Order of Malta and its possessions. It is certain that several Powers, discontented with the new constitution of the Order, and particularly with the creation of a new longue, composed of inhabitants of the Island, and piti upon an equality with the other impel, in posber s inffu ence and prerogative, have announced their inten tion to separate themselves entirely, and tO Incorpo rate the potsesticasof the Oides.

Verner and Hood, Poultry. that has stipulated for such a clause ? It is England that has expressly desired it. Lord Cornwallis . never concealed that it made an imperative par: (4f his instructions ; and that fact is moreover demon strated by the protocole of the conferences of the I reaty of Amiens, printed and published in England with the other pieces relative to the Negotiation.— Undoubtedly the Powers which have shewn a repug nance upon this point, have manifested their good sense. Who can blame them for wishing to escape :he effects of such a stipulation ? M. Neckar, it is true, had conceived the idea of putting together or ders which reason in all ages had kept distinft. his thought fit to arm vanities irritated against irritable vanities. But no one thought that the known results of such an experiment were of a nature to inspire suffiLient c'onfidence to induce the repetition of it so soon. England has not disdained to walk in bid. steps and to sow in the same ground. What harm, if at her call the Princes, the Nobles, the Lor .ls, the Knights, the Barons should flock together fl cal all the parts of "Europe, to share jointly with the respectable cheesemongers, fishmongert, the market-m-n, gardeners and labourers, of the Ise land of Malta, the cross of the Order, and the func tions of sovereignty ! It is easy to foresee, under the influence of English fleets and guinea", what would be the immediate issue of such a state. We cannot but applaud the Powers which have sought to pre. vent the combined calculations of this perfidy. la our opinion, England, prepared to interfere in the disputes already lomenfed, would, with little diffie find some months sooner a pretext which, at all events, t.onld not esc tpe her a few months later. That the English Go•:et ement should, after this, elf cit- through the whole Island, addresses against the Order ; that to these revolutionary measures it adds that of t. to most le.grading 'lrces against the Grand. Master against the Knights, is to say, against t he legitimate sovereignty of the country ; this its conduct does not appear to us more astonishing its this particular than upon other occasions. First tb degrade the sovereign of a country, and afterwards to seize his dominions, forms only a part of the game which the British Government has not been afraid to borrow from our revolutionary times. At the present day it is only in the English papers We read of risings and levies en mane. The langnage is become like its conduCt. The hiuke of Car.r bridge proclaimed all over Hanover " Liberty or eleath." 4 Let them detest us, let them abuse us,'. said Chabot, " but let us - save the country."— ,, Let us take measures upon a large scale," exclaimed Danton, ~ what signifies the expence ?",--" Let vs vote at once large means," cries Mr. Pitt, ". and draw upon us, if it must be so, a temporary dislike,' We shall be able to estimate, in a short time, what ever there is of reality or gasconade in all this energy of parade; we shall be able to appreciate the itnpression which shall have been made upon. King George by the occupation of his Electorate, the consent which is become indi'spensible to &nand. from him, and which it is as embarrassing for him , . to grant as to refuse; finally, we shall be able to ap t pretiate the new steps taken by Russia, and of Aicla. it is impossible to misunderstand the object: We shall conine oursulves for a moment to ars analysis of the l*arliamentary debates. , The Reader will, no doubt, give attention to thcr e words of Mr. Addington. " It is not the desire of Ministers to proced to extremities, to pilling& the country into a war of extermination, but not to suf fer humiliation." Mr. Addington is very knowing if he can foresee the exact point to which he' is to , advance, and at i Which he ought to stop in a war. It might be convenient to England to have on:y a war of amusement. She has, by the means'of her navy,. all the means of making an advantageous display upon the seas. France, on the contrary, has not to. make a parade, she has, to establish the war in Eng land herself. The Ministers are very weak or Very -- imprudetit, if they do not knovi the charaaer of a. position which renders on the two sides, the chances. 'of war to different.
