On the report of this Bill being brought up ; The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER observed, that the objet of the amendment con tended for last night was, in his opinion, not suffi ciently provided for by the words that were adopt ed ; and, he should therefore propose an amend ment upon the former ore, to this effed : " That the Commissioners be direled to enquire into any profits made by persons in office, holding sums, or balances of public money in their hands. or by any agents or other persons on their account." Mr. GREY acquiesced in she oposal; but hav i g observed that the Military Hospital, Academy, and Asylum, were specified, be suggested that the Medical Board should also be included. Mr. FOX dispproved of leavir.; things so much to the discretion of the Commissioners, and wished them to be instruned to inquire into former as well as existing abuses. That he thought might be done by fixing a perio2, but not a remote one, for %%tir investigations to extend to ; and be considered it to be much much more efficacious to the objed, to make it a substantial instead of a discretional part of their duty. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that as both sides of the }louse seemed to agree as to the substance of what should be dune. he would make little difference as to the mode of doing it, though he rather inclined to think that the duty should be rather discretional than absolutely imperative upon them. All that he contended for was, that there was no necessity for their extending their enquiries into abuses which no longer existed. The Amendment was then agreed to—several new clauses added—and the Bill ordered w be read a third time on Tuesday next. commtssitiNcug OF NAVAL ENQUIRY Mr. ALEXANDER brought up the Report of the bill fur continuing the powers or those Com missioners ; which being read, Admiral MARKHAM expressed an opinion, that. as the enquiries of the Military Comoris,ion were to extend to Chelsea I luspital, so should thus? of the Naval Commissioners to the Hospital at Greenwich. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCUEQUER replied, that he meant to do so, and make provi soes for assimilating the powers of Loth Com missions. The Bill was then recommitted f,sr tEx purpose of receiving these provisoes; the Report received forth. with, and the Bill ordered to be read a third time on Tuesday next.

A very long and desultory conversation then en sued, with respe.l Li. the registry of freeholds, &c. which would be totally unintelligible to our English readers, as freeholds in Ireland are so very different from those in England. The question being, howe ver, loudly called for, a division took place on the question, that the Chairman of the Committee do leave the Chair ; on which there appeared, Ayes, I9—Noes, 35—Majority, lii. The Committee then proceeded, and went through the several clauses of the Bill, in which. at the suggestion of Sir Joan NiAs roar, Mr. Gcosoe PONSONIIV, Mr. J A M LS Fl TIGER A LD, Mr. FUi I CR, Mr. B•owatt, and Mr. Ex, several verbal amend ments were introduced, and several clauses totally omitted.

A letter was yesterday received at the Admiralty, from Lord Na►.sosr. dated the 10th of April, ()lithe island of El Toro, S.W. of Sardinia, in which his Lordship states, that he had been apprised of tie juntlion of the combined Lets at Cadiz, and was then upon his way down the Mediterranean. —His Lordship had with him eleven sail of the line. The combined fleet sailed from Cadiz on the 10th ; but all the subsequent reports of the two fleets having met, and had " s truth," cr, as others say. " an indecisive adion," appear to be mere speculations. The report of the return cr the combined fleet to Cadiz begins also to be eal.- ed in question. The circumstance of twenty sail of the line having been reconnoitered in Cadiz, on the 22d, which W:l6 at fist relied upon as decisive of th o return of the combined fleets to that harbour, is said not to warrant that oonclusion. k the whole of the coiniiiihrd fleets, amounting to eighteen saa of the line, had returned to Cadiz, they would, with the eight that still remained in it, amount to twenty-six. This, therefore, admits the possibiNty that it may have been sonic other fleet—perhaps that of Carthagcna---that put into Cadiz ; or, that a part was dispatched upon some expedition. It is also consistent with the rumour that an engagement Las taken place, in which the combined fleet rimy have been dispersed, or sustained sonic loss. I .;'!ich cf these speculations is the true one, we have no in •ans of ascertaining. It is, however, generally I , hewed, that the fleet which put into Caliz has sailed again! as the Master of a neutral vessel reports, that he passed Cadiz on the 22d, at which time only six -ail of the line were lying there. We have received Paris Papers to the 9.h. Dutch Journals to the 12th instant. The Af7 :r of the Ist, and a Supplement annexed, contain • ti veral letters all-zed to have been found on board the Hope, one nt the prizes taken by Ada:, Lteots.
