BROWNE, pursuant to instruetiotu teceived from the Committee, gave notice that he would, on Tuesday next, move for leave to bring in a Bill founded on the second resolution of the Re port he had the honour of making to the House, from the Committee appointed to consider of the survey of the Highlands of Scotland. The subjea, be said, was of very great importance considering the late alarming emigration of the natives from that part of the kingdom to foieign countries ; and the obje& of the Bill would be to regulate the shipping, accommodations, &c. of passengets sailing to fo reign parts. The Irish Courts of Law Bill was read a third time, and passed, on the motion of Mr. Lee, after a new clause had been added, and some verbal al terations made in it.

In the House of Commons last night, Lord G. (Tawr.a moved, that the House should not, as usual, adjourn over this day, as it was possible Ministers might be able to make their promised communication, relative to the negotiation with France; and it wa. important, tha► not a moment should be lost to relieve the public mind, from the anxiety which it feels upon the subjed. The Mo don was resisted by Ministers, upon the ground, that no communication could be possibly received in the course of this day, so as to enable them to by it before the Home sooner than Monday. This statement appears to be perfealy fair and candid. Mr. SYL‘lsTalt, the Meseenger, reached Paris on Monday last, at noon, but Lord WHITWORTH had not left that capital on Wednesday morning. With every advantage, therefore, of wind and weather, he coull not be expeEted to arrive sooner than yes terday; and the wind being adverse, neither his Lordship, nor a courier, dispatched so late as Wed nesday, could be expeaed to arrive until a late hour this day or to-morrow morning. An arrival this day is, however, within the reach of possibility ; and from what fell from Lord flaw): esau v, should such an event take place, and the intelligence received be decisive, there is reason to suppose a communi cation will be made, without delay, to the LORD MAYOR. The conversation of Ministers last night, will be found, by our report, to have been more cautious and indefinite than upon any similar occa sion. This may be the natural result of the disap pointments which have already taken place ; but we should hope, that it has a 'foundation of a nature more satisfadory to the public. The delay of Lord %Vestryman' in Paris, so long after the arrival of Mr. Svcvssria, certainly affords strong gr, ..nd to hope, that the Film CONSUL. has yielded soratt:,ing more. No Messenger had arrived from Paris at two •'clock this morning. The Royal Family did not leave London yester day as expeEted. The delay is supposed to be occa sioned by his MAJESTY'S anxiety to hear the first intelligence from France. Yesterday morning at eleven o'clock, her MAJEIF TY, and the Princesses Auousra, EL IZA SETH, MA. ay and ASILLIA, left the 's House, and took an airing in two coaches, and honored Lady CH ARLO? TE Finch with a morning visit at St. James's Palace, where the Royal Party remained till about two o'cloc k. Yesterday morning at ten o'clock, his MAJESTY and the Duke of Ct 14 REILAND, attended by Gene ralGw voile, rode from the Queen's-House through St. James's-street, Rond-street, Oxford-street, the New Road, Camden Town, Hampstead, Highgate. and Islington. As his MAJESTY passed through those places, he paid particular attention to the new buildings and alterations that bave been made within these few years in those neighbourhoods. His M - JEST Y returned into London by Tottenham Quirt Road, through Soho-square, Leicester-square, his own Mews, by ( haring-Cross, and entered the Park by the Horse Guards, where the Life Guar.ls had but just timely notice to be assembled to elute his MA.;LST Yas he passed.
