The long-expected Netherlands troops arrived n. the 1911 i of August before Malacca, in order to receive pos s. ssion of dual Colony. On the 20th, the Commissaries, Adnural , Volierbeek and Governor Timmerman Thyssen, went on shore in ►late. They were received with great (Trillion! by the English Resident, Mr. Kenneth Murchison, and inrU. Ito • magnificent dinner. At the departure of the last accounts, the Nig of the Netherlands had not yet hem liiiistfil, and the Netherlands troops were in barracks mile to the north of the town. The Commissioners were iirgociAlin4 respecting the taking possession. The English Resident was making preparations to celebrate the birth day of the King of the Netherlands on the 24th of August. These rt ports are extracted from the Gazette of Prince of %Vales's Island, of August 29. [Au American Captain has brought word that the ('ololly wa, giveu up me the 20th of September] In the same Gotteife we read that the British flat flies in Palembang. This, however, is nut true; by the judicious conduct of M. Mioutinghe, the roileavoors of unautho rised persons to oppose the Netherlauds Government there, have been defeated.

THE BRITISH PRESS. LONDON, TUESDAY, MARCH 9, 1819. Last !lied at a late hour the CIIANCELLOR of the EiCNIFVUR brought forward his promised :notion for applying to the public service the ba lances of the public monies in the hands of the Bank, Itinitiog the extent to six millions. The money, however, thus raised, will not be imme diately applicable to that amount, for the sum of 3,300,0001. will be required to make good the arrears on the Consolidated Fowl, and the remaining 2,700,0001. will be handed over to the Bank, in part payment of a debt of 3,000.0001. which the Bank had lent to the Government, we believe, in 1807, without in terest, as a com:iensaiiiiii for the use of these bit. lances. No part of the money will therefore be available in the present year, to meet the current expeuscs. flanihurgli Papers to the 3d instant have arrived, but brit% no intelligence of importance. Au arti cle from Petersburgh asserts moat positively, that the accounts we have recently seen of the introduc- Witt into Europe, by M. J01:111611T, of 1,300 Cachemire goats, must be incorrect, from the im possibility of his making the journey to that pint of Thibet, of which illetie aniwa i sare natives, within the period front his arrival in Astrachan, on his journey thither, to the time when he appeared at Marinpol, on his return. This question is of uo trifling importance to the Ladies of Paris, to whom, therefore, with the assistance of the profound triflers in the National Institute, we shall leave the decision of it. A new civil Code of Laws is in • .tale o f gre at forwardness in Sweden, and a com plete military Code his been iiiiished. A n ew , translation of the into the l'sweilish language Isis been undertaken, of which the New Testament has been completed. Paris Papers of Friday have been received since our last publication. The five per Cents. closed Im Thursday at IN f. YO c. ; and Bank Stock at 1.495 F.—The following are extracts : PARIS. tti 4ac ti The Spanish Ambassador last iuur;iiiig officially announced to the King the death of Charles I V. of Spain. The Court will put OM mourning for -21 dos in memory of this event. All good citizens deplore those dreadful duels winch fur some time I►ave evinced less of the deli cacy of honourable feelings than the exasperation of pria-son and political animosity. ‘Ve therefore con graiulate the public Vii seeing n respectable Ms histrate beco►uing the organ of public reason. in a matter Which se nearly *interests The public tran quillity. M. BeMitt, the King's Attorney.Ge tiers', has atlblresaed u letter to the Moniteur otr this bilbject, front which the following inDsoges are extracted : " The public Minislry recognises neither single combats in themselves, nor thy pretended rides prescribed by usage• Tlw public Nlikeistry is at this moment proceeding on ton rely dtplurable bionic'.les. " Wean*e voluntary honsienle, according to our laws, is • crime.

" Because a premeditated duel is an insult to the laws, whirl, have nut given to any individual the right of avengiwq himself. " And b e cause it is important to the maintenance of pub. lie security, the preservation of families, and the concord which it is necessary to preserve among the people, that this dreadful and anti social error should not be propagated, that they may be permitted to kill WSW'S, provided it be in a duel, without the appielieusion of any kind of punish.- meat." _ A Dun h Muil has arrived, with Papers to the 6th instant. The Dutch feel very sore from the exposure of their encroscliments in the East Indies, and the opposition which they have met in the firm and manly conduct of Sir T. S. RAFFLES. Abandoning the ground of right and justice with respect to the gnestio►► of Palembang, they rest their hopes of success ui the forbearance and pacific temper of the British Government, and flat ter themselves that it will not suffer the harmony subsisting between the two countries to be inter rupted by a matter of such little importance. But they should not forget that brave inert find cause of quarrel in a straw, where honour is at stake, and that the weaker and more insignificant the Sultan of PALEMBANG is, the stronger must be his claim to British protection. We consider it of infinite importance to the own ers and masters of ships trading to the Mediterra nean, to be apprized, that a very long and expert site quarantine invariably takes place in the Italian an d Sicilian ports, on all vessels that may have touched at Gibraltar for any purpose whatever; and that it also subjects the cargoes to be discharged into lazarettoes. fur which a duty of 11 per cent. is Ireted. By the Agnes, arrived at Holyhead, letters have been received from !looms Ayres to the 28th No vember, but they contain no material news. No further intelligence had arrived from Chili since the 21st November, when the post brought the in formation of the capture: of the three Spanish transports already published. The Government of Buenos Ayres was well aware that Spain would ere long make a grand and last effort to subject them, and cohsequently every preparation of defence was making. This, it was expected, would be chiefly meritinse, and, besides gon-busts, all the cruisers in the Atlantic and Pacific were to rendezvous iii the Ricer Plate about August, when it was thought the capture of Peru would have been effected. The slumber of commissions in possession of cruisers amounted to 170, according to official re turns from the Admiralty. It is pretty clear these cruisers will not respect the flags of any neutral ships carrying Spanish soldiers and arms ou board, nor, indeed, after the declaration of the Royalists tlietuselves, could it be otherwise. In consiquesice or Mr. SWANN being declared not duly elected, an active callers's took place in the Borough of Penryn on Tuesday last, by the friends of Mr. SWANN for JOHN SHARD, Esq. a Gentleman of high respectability and fortune, and by Messrs. Sowet.i.s and the Corporation for their friend, Mr. A NDERDON, who has failed in the attempt toady: to seat him in Mr. SWANN'S plate. TIPPERARY ELECTION.—On Tuesday, at Cleo mel, the Right you. WILLIAM BAGWELL was, without opposition, chosen to represent the county Tipperary in Parliament, instead of Lord CAIIIII. advamed to the Peerage. Mr. BAGWELL declined the compliment of chairing, but dtetinguished his return by charitable lergesses to a large amount, not less than 1,000!. if we are correctly informed. In the year 1734, Mr. NTT, then in the zenith of his power and popularity, proposed a tax of 2s. a ton Ott coal, :It the pit mouth, which produced such g reat alarm and such warm remonstrances from a r il parts of the kingdom, that lie first post poned, awl liuully abandoned the measure. The objections, indeed, against thin odious tax, are so numerous 111111 weighty, that it is astoilishing that the measure biltiltht ever be seriously contemplated. It is en impost which would be most burdensome and uppressiVe to the poor--destructive to our manufactures—and in the ultimate result,unproduc tive to the revenue ; it is also a tax which could not be imposed without endangering the tranquillity of the kingdom ; one of the chief comforts remaining to the labouring clas4es in the manufacturing coun ties, is the cheapness of coal and the consequent eii joymeist of a cheerful fire-side, which consoles a pour man under many privations ; to attack hint on the domestic hearth, 41111 to wrest from him his few re maining comforts, would be au act of the grossest cruelty, and *mild probably produce • dangerous re-action; sere this the roily objection which could be urged against this tax, it would be sufficient, with every considerate Administration, to ensure its prompt rejection ; but it is an iinpost which will also operate to the irreparable injury of many of our most imporbint maiinfactures. Those who are aware of the immense consumption of coal in the manufacture of iron and other metals, from the smelting of the ore to the completion of them, for home consumption or exportation, will perceive that a tax upon this article will, be attended with the most ruinous effects. Nor would its operation be less injurious on the uumeroua manufactories of glass and earthenware which are established through out the kingdom. It is also well knowu that the principal processes in the woollen and calico mu. Hof:return are effected by the power of the steam engine, which requires a very large supply of fuel. Immesite quantities of coal are also necessary for the burning of lime, which is an indispeusable article not only in building but in agriculture. ti , „.0:7p4 '. ) t e . 04: 3) _ 14, "I 410 •,„...:4-A • --,‘ ‘44.--) „...0 t • --... \.. _-.9 1 .• e,-..c,- , . 1 , ... if .. doo i . r ..2 ~ eci.:...-r- v 0...4.,...,.. , --, - ii i.,,...,...... - 4) . , ~..... ..• r ,5. ., u... ~ ...A0c ,.., i- - 3 BRIGHTON, 11Aacti B. PAVILION I NTELLIG The Prince Regent, in the happiest enjoyment of health, continues to honour and enliven this town with his presence, nor has the day for his Royal Highness's retnoval to Carlton-house as yet been named. We fear, however, that we tarty have to announce his Royal Highness's re gretted departure in our next weekly communi cation. His Royal Highness was daily on horseback last week, and twice in public. Friday and Saturday ; accompanied by Admiral Sir E. Nagle. The Pavilion dinner and evening parties through out the whole of the last week, with the exception of the Sunday, were limited principally to the Palace Noblesse—on the former day, in addition to the suite of Royalty, the following distinguished Personages were prevent The Duchess of Richmond, the Earl and Countess of Meitho gh, the Marquis and Marchioness of Conyugham, the Earl and Countess of Newburgh, the Ladies Eyre, the Earl and Countess of Warwick, the Countess of Clare, the Earl and Countess of Charleville, Lord and Lady G Lennox, Sir M. J. and Lady Tierney,Clllllli and Countess St. Antonio, Lord and. Lady John Townshend, Sir Thomas and Lady Lyiltlell, Ladies C. Dundse, Webster, Peeling, Fslkiuor, and J. Fitslibbon, Admiral Sir J. Buries, Warren and Lady, Sir Edward and Lady Kerrison, Colonel and Lady Charlotte Seymour, Stc. A fine performance of a grand selection of Sacred Music gave heavenly harmony to the oc casion. Mr. Becht, late House Steward at the Pavilion and at Carltou•huuse, continue' so dangerously in disposed as to preclude all hope of ultimate re covery. The following ere the Palace arrivals, departures, and returns of the last week, Sunday and Monday, none. Tuesday, arrived, the Duke of Rutland. Colonel French, and General Bayley. departed, Lord ant I.s , !y Amherst. Wednesday, deputed, the Duke of Ratland and Colonel French. Thursday, arrived, General Sir Hussey Vivian. Friday, arrived, the Doke of Dorset and Sir Andrew Bernard ; departed, Lord Graves sod General Bayley. Saturday, 'none. - Divine Service, as usual, was yesterday perform ed at the Palace by the Rev. F. W. Blomberg. Arrivals here were very numerous last week for the season. The departures of importance were, the Dow ager Countess of Ros.lyu, Lord and Lady North land, Lady Wake, and Lady Hoye. It gives us pleasure to observe, that the effort. making to restore annual races to this place now appear likely to be attended with certain success. Nut only was the approbation of the Earl of Egre mont obtained on Saturday, in furtherance of the desired object, but that of General Sir Benjamin Bloomfield also—the result, therefore, is no longer to he doubted. The Theatre here, it seems, is yet without a tenant. This scheme certainly offers many ad vantages to the renter, in the event of able manage ment; but without that, as various proofs have sliewn to us, only the reverse, of course, can fairly be expected. On Sunday the Duke of YORX attended Divine Service at the Chapel Royal, St. James's Palace, and heard a sermon preached by the Bishop of CARLISLE., for the Bishop of EXETER. His Royal Highness afterwards received the sacrament, which was administered by the Bishop of LONDON, as Dean of the Chapel, and the Rev. Mr. HoLau', as Sub. Dean. A new anthem, composed by Mr. ATTWOOD (one of the composers to the Klxa), was sung by ►Mr. VAuGHAN, &c. the words from the 16th Psalm. Sunday the Duke and Duchess of GLOUCESTER, accompanied by Mr. Cuattint, Colonel HIGGINS, and Lady ISABELLA THYNNE, attended Divine Service at St. George's Church, Hanover-square. lm the evening their Royal Highnesses visited the Princess Soma. of GLouccrrtit. Yesterday the Duke and Duchess had a small party at dinner. SIR PHILLIP FRANCIS—Fur the information of those readers who have perused the various publi cations which have attempted to establish the iden tity of this well-known character with the secret and mysterious Junius, we have to state, that the will of Sir PHILIP, dated the /1011 of April, IBM contains no allusion whatever to those celebrated letters. IVe understand that a sealed box has been deposited by order of Sir PHILIP FRANCIS at DRUMMOND'S Bank, with an injunction that it shall not be opened with% • given time. Travels in the Interior of Africa. —We have to contradict a paragraph which appeared in the Lou don Papers, and which we copied in our impres sion of the 20th of last mouth, stating that a young French traveller had succeeded in reaching the town of Towbuctoo. IVe have been informed, through the same channel by which we derived the intelligence respecting the movements of Major GRAY, that the said French traveller had returned to the coast, without reaching Tombuctoo, nor even Sego ; that he, however, socceerted clearly in tracing the sources of the Niger, Senegal, and Gambia. His name is MELHAINEE. We are, therefore, in great hopes that the honour will de volve on our countryman, Major GRAY, to have been the first European who ever visited the far famed town of Tombuctoo.--( Plymouth Tele graph.) Haltom Acr.—On Wednesday, the 24th ult. during a very heavy gale, u Mr. Daaw, one of the junior midshipmen of the Windsor Castle, now in liamosze, was lying alongside that ship in a boat, he, hy some accident, fell overboard. The occur rence being perceived by Mr. ELWorrliy, mid shipman of the Dwarf cutter, who happened to be on board the Windsor Castle, he immediately plunged into the water, though clad in a heavy Flushing coat, and reaching Mr. DREW, succeeded in supporting him, until a boat rescued them both from their perilous situation.

IKALAND. DUBLIN. MARCH 4. TIPPERARY ELECTION. Extract of a letter from Clountel, dated Mon day, March 1 :- 66 the Saturday Mr. Perry, of Woodroof, and Mr. Tyild, gave the Sheriff official notice of the resignation of Mr. Prittie. The cause of this resignation is attributed to a let ter from Lord Landaff, received by Mr. Prittie on Friday, statiag, that his unqualified support should be given to Co lonel Bagwell. 4, This interest Mr. Prittie and his friends looked up to as certain; and how far consistently the Noble Lord has acted I shall leave the public to judge, as before Mr. Pr 'e ad dressed the County (not having done so for ten ila‘s after Mr. Bagwell!, he called on General Mathew, at Thomas town, at which time it was understood the General promised lo !dee him his support. Anil that on Mr. Bagwell applying to Lord Lawlaff fur his support and interest, Lord Laudnif answered Mr. Bagwell by saying, he wished loin success iu his canvass, but before lie could give hint his final answer, he would consult his friends, and, in the interim, lie most nut count on him or his support as at all curtain ' The number of forehand" on the Landatf estate is considerable, amounting to three thousand and upward+.

Some of the inhabitants of Clunmel, and even tenanls of Caroni I Bagwell, acted with the greste►t independence, and refused to support him." The remains of the late FRANCIS WILLIANt SCRUTI.FR Esq. of Wortland, Dorset, were deposited in the family vault of that church on 'Sunday evening last, with every mournful sulemuity. This worthy character was in the late war an officer in the 28th regiment, and served under Field Marshal his Royal Highness the Dnke of YORK, 1111 the Continent, at the commencement of the Francis Revolution. He was at the storming of the lines of Nimegnen, and Also at the surrender wf Valencienises; afterwards with the army in Egypt, and served wider the immortal A RERcROMIIY, iu the ever-memorable battles of the 13th sod 21st of March. In all these actions he maintained the bravery and honour of II British soldier; and nu these, and every other occasion, his conduct gained him the esteem of his Commanding and brother Officers. He was lihurily after promoted to a Com. pany in the lath regiment, and retired on lialf.pa, dirr the Treaty of Amiens.
