With resped to such Irish Petitions as might require a scrutiny, and should be referred to the Commissioners in Ireland, he thouet they might be appointed for an early day, as the Commissioners in the mean time could proceed with the evidence, and by that means save time and advance the hu,i nets. He adopted this measure, he continued, as it was not probable, nor indeed desirable, that the present Sessions of Parliament should col tinue long, at this advanced season of the year, and of course it would not he pia :fineable to snake any great Flo gress before the nen Sessions.

Th. other orders of the day were then digpnsd of, and the House adjourned until Mont (this day). FOREIGN IN? Li, 1 UERCE. FROM THE PARIS PAPERS. P/11111. JULY I. EIGHTIETH BULLETIN OF THE GRAND ARMY. .11.1•119. During the time that the French arms signalized themselves on the field of battle at Yriesland, the Grand Luke of Berg arrivea before Kniiingeberg, and took in dank the corps of the army commanded by General L'Estocq. On the 13th, Manful Soo& found, at Crest:- burgh, the Prussian rear guard 4 the division of Mil haud's dragoons made a line charge, defeated the ussiAn cavalry, *nil took several pieces of cannon. On the 14,11, tl.e enemy was compelled to shut himself up in Koningsberg ; about nom ruin of the en:my's columns, which had been cut off, appeared before that place, with a view of entering it. Sin pieces of cannon, and from three to four thousand men, who composed this troop, were taken. MI the suburbs of Koningsberg were razed; and a considerable number of prisoners were made. _ . The result of all these affairs is Irnween lour and five thousand prisoners, and 15 pieces of manna. On the I.sth and 16th, Marshal Souk's corps was occupied before the eutrencomnts of Konings berg ; but the advance of the main body of the army towards Wehlau obliged the enemy to eva cuate Koningsberg, and this place tell into our hands. The stores found at Koningsberg are immense, '2OO large vessels from Russia are still all loaded in the port. There was much more wine and ltrandy than we had any reason to reps.& A brigade of the division of St. Hilaire advanced before Pillau to form the .iege of that place ; and General Rapp has sent off a column, ordered to go by the Nrhrung, to raise before Palau a battery which may shut the Hoff. Vessels manned by me nu's of the gitatd,rentiee us masters of this small sea. On the 17th, the Emperor transferresi his head quarters to the farm of Druchen, near Klein &hi ran, on the 18th, he advanced them to Igaisgira, and on the Ibth, at two in the afternon, he entered Tilsit. The Grand Duke of Berg, at the head of the I greater part of the light cavalry, and some divisions of dragoons and cuirassiers, has followed the enemy in his retreat these three last days, and did him much injury. The sth regiment of hussos Jon guished itself. The Cossacks were repeatedly rout ed, and suffered considerably in these different charges. We had ■ few killed and wounded ; among the latter is the Chr/ d'Eseadre, Piano, Aide. de-camp to the Grand Duke of Berg. After the passage of the Piegel, opposite to Wehlau, a drummer was charged by a Cossack at lull gallop ; the Cossark took his lance to pierce tht drummer, but the latter preserved his presence of mind, took his lance from him, disarmed the Cossack and pursued hini. A singular eireurastame, which excited the laugh ter of the soldiers, eccurred for the first time near :lint, where a cloud of Cossacks was seen fighting with arrow*, we were sorry for those who give the preference to the ancient arms overshote of the mo , derns, but nothing is more laughable than the effect of these arms against our muskets. Marshal DA• voust, at the head of the 9d corps, defiled by Labials, fell open the enemy's rear-guard, and made 2,500 prisoners. Marshal Ney arrived on the I ith at Insterbourgs, and there took 100:.) sounded, and the enemy's magazine, wh.ch were considerable. The woods and villages are fall of straggling Russians, sick or ' wounded. The loss of the Russian army is enor mons ; it ha, not with it mare than CO piece. w: ... . . f _ ._ . ... pieces we have taken, but it iasuppoted that the number exceeds 120. Neu. Tilsit, the annexed Nnta, nninbt:ed I and 11, were transmitted to the Grand Duke of Berg, and afterwards the Russian Prince Lictitmant-Ue natal Labanolf, passed the Niemen, and had a conference far an bout, wi,h the Prince of Neuf chatel. Ihe enemy burned is great haste the bridge of Tilsit over the Niumen. aid appeared to be cosy ti suing his retreat into Russia ; we are en the con- fines of that empire. TheNtemen, opposite Tilsit, is somewhat broader than the Seine ; from the lett hank• we see a cloud of Cossacks, who form the rear. L: uard of the enemy on the right bank. Hostilities have already ceased. _ _ . What remained to the King of Prussia is con quered. That unfortunate Prince has only in his power the country situate between the Niemen and Memel. The greater part of his army, or rather of the division of his troops, is deserting, being un willing to go ipto Russia. Toe Emperor of Ruesi4 remained three weeks at Tilsit with the King of Prussia. On receiving ad vice of the baitie of Prie fiend, they both lett the place with the utmost haste. Nn I THE GE)4.II•L IN CHILE, BENSISIBM, TO HIS EX CELLESCY, BA011•T1110:1.

We understand that they bring cates of those from Lord HUTCHINSON, the anis.: of which we ariuounced on Saturday, containiry, the details of the battle of Friedland, and al,o some later intelligence. A Cabinet Council is sari. mooed for this day, at which all the Members are panicalarly requested to attend; when it it supposed the intAligence received by Captain LA* PC:OTIIR lc, Will be taken into consideration. A Messenger was sent off in the afternoon to the Kira. at Wiadsor, with the substance of the dispatch*. A Mad from Tonningen arrived on Saturday, with letters and papers from Akona and Ilansburgl. to the sth. Paris papers to the 3d were al,o e eeived at the same time. An Armistice bztween France and Russia was signed on the £2l last, and ratified by the Emperor A LES•RDZI on the £3d. A copy of it, as published by the Frer.c l / 4 Minister at Hamburgh, is given in s subsequezt column. l'he Paris papers contail the ElGNlt[iit Bur tans of the Grand A,rmy, dated Tddt, t'as 19th, to which are annexed two Notes, from which it appears that the armistice was 61111 d for by It::: eia.—lt is also a separate arenistice, although fr, the Russian Note we sbouid presume she wool have preferred a joint aegociation. At the its: the ratification of the armistice, the ?repair ALBIANDLII was at Tauroggen on the Sserzuws, about 30 English miles from Tilsit, at which p!ace Ben A Aare still remained on the 23d. On Satur• day we ann:unced the arrival of a Messeng , r with dispatches from Lord HUSCIIISSON. They ate dated Memel, the 24th last, and detail the various operations which led to the armistice. — In the affairs of the 2th, 6th, and 10th Jaw. the Russians had decidedly the advantage. The battle of the 14th WAS contested with the greatest obni• nary, and vi Tory alternately favoured the opposie; armies, but finally tested with the French. Thee loss in killed and wounded exceeded 13,000 user• The loss of the Russians, including prisoners, es• ceeded 20,000, The Russian army, on the 22d, amounted to 103,000 men, from w!.ich it appears that it lost be. tween :"t.) and 40,000 men during the three preced ing weeks. Reinforcements were crowding to the Russian army ; a corps of upwards of YO,OOO men !tad, un 22d, arrived on the Swola ; anut:icr body was at Rosen, and *third at %Vilna, making. in the whole, upwards of 60.000 men.
