~"` , V. -J , .• ..0 . .-.eir„- . -e•nplylng with what eras v. • adverting to the mode in trhich • r • was made, supported the uhserva ,,,,t s , s.; nde ant Learned Friend on that part of the -.ores. He vindicated the proceedings which ha hi,h-rrn oh..ti ed, fern whici the accusing par ties al del ived no advantage, bra what, from the istheren nature of the case, was absolutely una vnidable„.. Lora AU '.KL AND considered what had been ptoposed as roper, just. and necessary. 143 bad flo..een that such a proposition would be nude. The previnu; i. , vestiganon, in the out-doors Com mittee, which •vas institeted for the advantage of the sw .7nsed, would. if the present request was not compile I with. operate as an engine of hiss eice veils! hint. In support of these conclusions. his Lords' , ia adverted to some detail; of the proceeding. He • .ouglsr the motion of the Nobic Uaron a good one; but s.'ll. were it amended by the omission of that part, which mentions, " for th•t purpose of the same being communicated to Mr. Ju.aice For," it would be perfettly unolledionablc. Lord MULGRAVE, in delivering his sentiments ttl us the subjed, expressed his doubts whether the advantages alluded to could accrue to the accusers. In illustration of which idea, he a lverted to the close and secret nature cf the proceeding; of the Committee. Lord RENVILLE, in explanation, could not concur with Noble Friend's ides, that the Com mittee in question could in any degree be considered as a secret one. The Noble Baron also adverted to some of the proceedings therein. Lord MULGRAVe. shortly explained. The LORD CHANCELLOR. made some fur ther observations upon the subjeift ; he also expressed his doubts as to the advantages which could accrue from the proceedings which had hitherto taken place; but it shoold be recullened, that in cases of accusation in general, certain advarrages lay, and unavoidably; with the Prosecutor. He scented to entettain doubts as to the propriety, considering the mode. of what wit proposed ; and he knew of no instance of copies of proceedings of the kind, being granted, on a similar application o:s the part of the accused. Lord AUCKLAND, in enforcing what he had '• before advanced upon the sable% expressed his opinion, that, in the present state of the case, it was necessary the request should be complied with. He are t ued shortly against :he idea, that the Com mittee in eprerion was., in my sense, a secret one. Some tursher conversation ensued, in the course of which, ie was moved by one of their Lordships, " That the Chairman do leave the Chair." The questions were then put, on which the Chair man was ditated to leave the Chair ; and the House resuming, the P.esolution of the Committee was reported to the House ; in consequence, the COMlllilLet were ordered to sit aguiu on Wednesday next. . Some routine business was then disposed of; af ter which the LORI) CHANCELLOR preacat:d a biz, the ebjeet of which was, the better regula tit n Of Le: Zees in the high Court of Chancery. The Bill was forthwith yeast a first time. The Mouse then adjourned (the Whitsua Recess) till Wednesday next. 1 'HOUSE. OF COMMONS. A new Writ sae ...tiered Mr Soirewitroy iir the room of Sit W.

STATF. OF THE ARMY. Colonel CRAUFIJILL) moved, that there be laid before the House an account of the eTeetive force of this country at home and abroad, on the Ist of May. 1805 ; also an account of the number of men raised by the Additional Force Dill, from the Ist of January 1804, to the 4th of April 1805. together with the number of men raised by the ordinzry mode of recruiting. Also of the casualties at home, and the returns of casualties from foreign stations, for the last four months.—Which were agreed to. He then gave notice of his intention, as soon as the Papers were on the Table. of grounding a mo tion upo.i them. If Friday mat should be conve nient, lie was willing to move it then; but if not, al.ould do so as soon as possible.

OAK TIMARit. Sir WM. DOLBEN, in cots: queues of the de creasing stew of the wowing ndk timber in this country, and the very itscre.ising demand there was for it. said he had tong thought it nece,siiry to ob lige every planter to make oak timber a certain por tion of his plantatium and for that put pose noised that a Committee be appointed to take into conai d nation the present growing state of the oak timber of this country. Mr. ATKINS seconded the motion. 'lke CHANCELLOR of the EX.:II►PQUER ob. jeded to it, as not likely to lead to any cnnsequencei, and tending to vi,lite the rights uf private property. Sir WM. DOLBSN replied, that the same ob jeaion would be applicable to all enclo.ing and other Laic, in which the Public wat to partake of the advantages; and he tilought it is ould be important to the Public, and not diliadvanteoas to the indi vidual, if the latter should be obliged to plant with . _ . oak one acre out of fifty. Sir W.A. ELFORD spike ag.tinst the Motion. Admiral MARKHAM thought the subje3 of the Motion to be of the most serious importance, and one, which, if not adopted now, should be taken up on a much more enlarged scale at a' future time. The present situation of the Royal forests required some such subsidiary meAsure, and some litut:ation to be made to the use of British oaks in other ships except those of the Royal Navy. The Motion was negatived. IMPEACHMENT OF LORD VISC3UNT MELVILLE . Mr. H. LASCELLES expressed his regret at not seeing an Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Whitbread) in his piece, as he wished to explain, that when he yes terday gave notice of his intention to bring forward a Motion on that part of the loth Report which re lated to a Right Hon. Gentleman (fir. Pin) a day before that signified by the Right Hon. Gentleman alluded to, he had not in contemplation the adjourn ment for the Holidays. lie wished it to be under stood, that he did not intend to persist in his Motion, but would also apprise the House, that if, in the Resolutions, meant to be proposed by Mr. Whit bread, there should be any thing of a criminating nature, counter resolutions would be prepared, and if no other person should think proper to come forward, he would himself undertake that duty. THE tom . MESSAGE The CHANCELLOR of the EXCIJEQUER moved the order of the day for taking loin const&r. Litton the Report of the Committee on the Message of the House of Lords, requiring their reasons for calling for the attendance of Earl St. Vincent, to give evidence in the case of Sir Home Popham— which being read, he said, he saw no praißical ad vantage in giving any answer to the Lords. in the shape pointed out by the Committee, as he believed it to be the immentori tl wage of their Lordships, not to allow any of their Members to be called u,.on to give evidence, which mtht crintiare themselves. lie, therefore, moved, that the report be secure. mined to the same Committer. Mr. KINNAIRD ;use of are Committee) wished to know, in what sense the report was to b: recant.. matted? The Committee repotted the only two points on which they wished to examine his Lord snip, but did not 'ono to call him before them, purely as a witness. It was not their wish to have made ho. Lord+ip a party; and he therefore rag :Tested he propriety of recommitting tire bill, aith explanatory instruicti , ms. Sir J. STEWART and Sir W. BURROWES spoke in favour of the recommitment. The SPEA KER explained. that the House never i.tstruaed a Committee, as to its report, but as to tl.e nature of its ptoccedings. 'l'ie II:port was then ordered to be recommit ed to the same Committee. IRISH DISTILLERY RILL• O t the report of the Irish Distillery Bill ; Mr. J. Ft I ZGERALD expressed his regret at finding a irwasure of so much consequence to the trade of both countries, pressed on in an thin an. at tendance; and particularly when it it:Ratted penal ties of so very severe a description. Mr. FOSTER ieplied, that the Bill was lon be. for: the House ; that it was well known the laws hitherto adopted, were not sufficient to cope with the energies of the smuggle- ; and that it was in dispensably necessary to make the penalty a pear. 11;411 one, in the first place; and, for ;he second offence, to extend to transportatien out of that country. Sir .1. STEWART sofike in support of the bill. Mr. WILBERFORCE said, he made no doubt but the Right Han. Gent. had well considered the justice of the case ; but, if absolute necessity did not exist, he wished the penalties in this instance, as well a. others, to assi•atiate with the mild spirit of fire Eogli .h laws. Mr. 1). BROWNE and Mr. ALEXANDER spoke in favour of the bill; after which it was or dered to be read a third time on Wednesday next. Adjourned to V% ednesday. THE BRITISH PRESS. Li/NOON, SATURDAY. Juan 1. The Report from the Sete& Committee of the House of Commons, upon the Tenth Naval Re port, was published yesterday. With the Minutes of Evidence, and Appendix, it occupies 123 folio pages ; and would, even in the smallest print, fill thtee newspapers. In this situation, we have taken the course which we think will prove most satisfac tory to our readers, and candid towards the parties immediately concerned. We hay,' given the Re port of the Committee, and Mr. Prrr's examina tion, at groat length ; meaning, as opportunity shall offer, to give all the other documents, in detail, that may be essential to a clear and comprehensive view of the CAN.

Castle, in the county of Mid-Lothian, on the 18th day of February, 1803—. and by t!,e latter, at London, on the 23d day of the same month, and is the same year. It acknowledges a balance due at the time by Mr. TROTTER to Lord Mitsvit.sa, to the amount of 1,5801. 1 Is. Id.; and it stipulates, that the parties shall cancel and destroy all the vouchers, memoranda, and writings, that ever passed be tween them. A letter from Dublin, dated May 27, says— " Within the last two or three day., a considerable degree of vigilance has been exercised by our Go vernment. On Saturday night, and last night, the garrison was under arms, and several of the Of and Clerks in the Ordnance department were on foot during the whole night, in order to &liver such ammunition and stores as might be necessary. The chevaux-de-frize were in readiness to be thrown across the Castle gates, and the guns kept loaded ; three to be fired from the Castle, and answered by an equal number from the barrack as a signal for the Yeomanry to get under arms. 54 Amidst all this din and note of preparation," the question is bandied from one to another, 1, tries can be the cause of this alarm? Ilitberto I have not met with any one ttiat could answer it, or that can assign an adequate cause for such precautions. Such is the order that surrounds us, that the fears even of the alarmist seem to have subsided, and we are obliged to ac count for these precautionary measures. as arising from an apprehension of invasion, rather than from that of any iwestine commotion. The alarm, I un derstand, was getferal, and lay no means confined to the mettopolia. Several regiments, on their march towards ae south, were halted, ind kept under arms during the two last nights, as were the garrison; in Balbrygan and Drogheda, and, I believe, in 04 y veral towns on the north-east." Paris Papers to the and Dutch Papers to the 20th last, have been received, but their con tents are not of any importance. Great prepa rations are making at Boulogne for the reception of DONAPARIL, who was to repair thither after Lis coronatirat as King of Italy. The ceremony took place on the 23d.

The Telegraph also communicated an order on Wednesday night, to the Port Admiral at Portsmouth, fur the Glory, of 98 guns, to sail immediately for the Downs. A letter from Penzance, dated Tuesday last, save, we fear without any good foundation :—" The in habitants of this town were in motion yesterday evening. in consequence of the agr,eable intelli gence said to be brought by a boat beloigiog to the Plower sloop of war, charged with dispatches for Government, that Lord Nctsost had fallen is with the Combined Fleets, and had taken ten sail of the line. four frigates, and one gun brig, in which were 8000 French troops.—P.

In taking into our cansidqrattuit the three snitleils referred to your Committee, it occurred to us, that though the inst. in terms, comprehends an Inquiry, generally end without restriction, law the application of any monies hawed to the Treasurer of the Navy for Naval S.TviCoo4, to pati o :Jo., not Naval; yet it must ne:csse - ily have been the iet-titaiu of the {louse to exclude from our consideration all such nt it, as so issued and so applied as wete to be the subject of nria x; ,.., which the Attorney-General was directed, by an order of • • 9 House, to take "by due course of lavr, for ascertaining i,l recovering ail sums of oriney that may trr due from asc., o Melville and Alexander Trotter, Esq. in respect of any pieiss derived by Ciao from tnonies issoert for naval services, r,rer that may have come to their hands, subsequent to the iiir4 January. 1786." We, therefore, conceived it not to he gUreUty to emiutie, whether any sums, issued for nasal pir poses, had been ; by Lord Melville or Mr. hotter to their own . use, fur which they would be responsible in the civil suit to he iu.;d e ted against them.
