7 k. a 9 to which he h ad forfierly been so useful a member (the Navy B 111 d). With respi.a to what had been said by the lion. Gmtleman ' of no honours having been conferred on Lord Northesk, though His Majesty had not been advised to bestow any pecu niary reward on that gallant Officer, he had signified his gracious intention of conferring on him a mark of honour which had always been ele.:med appro priate to such an occasion, which was to invest him with a red ribband, and create him a Knight of the Bath. Mr. FOX said, that any one who heard the speech of the Noble Lord, just now delivered, would supposo that lie had said something disre speetful of the First Lord of the Admit alty, whereas, he begged the House to recoiled, that he had never once mentioned his name ; lie had only observed, that in asking a vote of thanks to the fleet, in which the fleet only was concerned, there was no occasion to sake the Admiralty a sharer in the praise due to the viaory. He was glad to hear, that a mark of honour had been bestowed on Lord Northesk, but could not help saying, that it had been very tardily brought forward. Lord CASTLEREAGH said. the reason of its not being fixed sooner was, the doubt and difficulty which he had before mentioned, as to the due ap. portionment of rewards, where so many were re quired, in order to do justice as nearly as possible to all ; and, latterly, the delay,hail been increased by the severe indisposition of that high personage at the bead of His Majesty's councils, whose recent death we had all in much reason to lament. Mr. GREY said, that he must agree with his Hon. Friend near him (Mr. Fox). that the Noble Lord's speech certainly did contain a very laboured panegyric in praise of the Admiralty ; he had also exrended his observations to former transactions, and aile.led to gloomy predictions, which Gentlemen, on that side of the I louse, had drawn on these occa sions. Toe Noble Lord had, he believed, applied these observations, in allusion to what had formerly fallen from bins ; arid, in so doing, he had not only adverted to these gloomy predictions, as he called them, but had also grossly misrepresented them. lie denied that he ever did make gloomy predic tions; be had only enumerated the various squad rons the enemy had at that time at sea ; and when it was denied that they bad escaped from this, or that pest, he only said, that whether they came t wnn tte-East or from the West, from the North or from the South, they were at sea, and we had not eveaslions to send after them. With regard to L rid Northesk, the red ribbon was certainly a very st,spropriate honour for such an occasion ; lost why had the mention of it been so very lung delayed? Ile tr.ought His blajt•siy's i n:seers had been vet y dilatory in doing that which they saw was necessary, and which roir,ht iiive be-n done at the same time ; for the red rib band vacant by the death of the I hero, who that day commandesl, might certainly have been sent out by the same vessel as carried the Peerage to Lord Collingwood. Lord CASTLEREAGH said, that the Hon. - ' 4 Gentleman did not make a reasonable comparison ; the honour of the Peerage was conferred in a mo ment. and was easily determined on as proper tor the first its command under the Noble Lord, who • bad, so unfortunately for the country, fallen in the confiret. It was not so easy to determine on what i c *old be bestowed on those in subordinate corn- Minds. Whatever the Hon. Gentleman might think, he could assure the House, that the delay , of conferring this honour on Lord Nortbesk, k had latterly, in particular, teen increased by •" the indisposition of the great personage be had al luded to. It was in contemplation to confer some particular mark of honour, of a must delicate Ta. tire, which was not positively iced on, and the in- greasing of his disorderhad not onlydelayed,but k aside t' e ;nemmatter tl ait a o o b tll ad said of the Wit h ger ' rePe‘lto the Hon.enemy's s, it was now well known to every one, that we squadrons to send out after them, and that they OfMned and drove them out of the West Indies, and chased them into their very ports. k General GROSVENOR said, that after the very r impressive manner in which the Noble Lard had • brought this subject !wrote the House, be would not hare said a word on the subject. but he was sorry to Sod that there wis a gallant Officer, who bore a distinguished part in that glorious victory, of ( wham no particular , mention had been made, nor any honour conferred.

THE BRITISH PRESS. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY Q 9. ..-.-.00...---- Copies of the Treaties alluded to in His MAJES- T Y'S Speech sveie yesterday laid before both Houses of Parliament. Viscous - A CASTLE/ZACK, on pre senting them in the Commons, laid the whole blame of the unfortunate issue of the war upon Austria. The plan of the war, he said, originated with that Power, as being more immediately interested, and furnishing the largest contribution of force. Ac cording to this plan, this couatry had a right to con clude, that, exclusively of ary militaty assistance from Great Britain, of the troops of Sweden, of any future assistance from the Court of Berlin, and the , auxiliary forces of the secondary powers in friendship or alliance with the confederacy, there would have been, by the Ist of October, an alive force of 5q0,0 0 4, in rl e field, ready to ad against France ; isisd the A , wr; ins we:: to have remained upon the Inn, for the pl.: , ,se of there forming a junftion with Or RUSSIAIS. l'he Emperor of Rossi A had conformed with the ;lan; the Russian armyhasiag reached Bran nan two days earlier than the stipulated time; but the Austrians, is violation of the plan, advanced beyond the Inn, and marched an army of 80,000 to LIM, Sunder the command ht 'leneral MACH. These WAett, his Lordship' void, oroOil iii . keti from the reaties, eaties, the breach of which, on the part of Aus , .a. he knew not how to account for. if the Esc% govt so, the blame, no doubt, attaches to Austria. !The precipitate advance of the Austrian army, under General MACK, to Ulm, singly and unsup ported by the Russians, was unquestionably the cause of all the subsequent disasters, of the ultimate defeat of the Allies, and of the inglorious termina tion of the war, by the humiliating and disgraceful treaty of Prcsburgh. We will give the treaties to• me: row. There were many allusions in both Houses of Par liament yesterday, to the new Ministry ; but nothing new respelling the detail transpired, which can be stated with certainty. After the House of Commons adjourned, on Monday, Mr. Fox went to Lord GersvlLLE's house, where he remained until two o'clock yesterday morning. His Lordship has had several interviews with the Marquis WELLESLEY. Mr. Fox declined the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer, and preferred that of Secretary for Foreign Affairs, for which he is certainly more competent. His MAJLiTY, we understand, is ex peaect in town this day, when the progress made in the arrangement of a new Ministry, will be sub. mitted to the Royal consideration. Mr. Fox's de claration, last night, in the House of Commons, in which he stated, that " he did not pretend even to guess who were to be the successors of the present Ministers," must not be construed strialy. Nothing can be constitutionally known, or presumed upon the subjea, until llis MAJESTY has made the ap pointment. We hay.t received Paris P to the 15th inst. ..'apers but the length of our Parliamentary Report obliges us to confine our Extracts to the most prominent parts of their contents. On the t 4th inst. the Arch-Chancellor of the Em- pile (Cs st !scrims) went to the Senate, and made the following speech : " G —lf the Grand Eleetor had been present, you would have received from 1 the communications which the Low,m , cor and King orders me to make to you. The Letter which Hu Ma,erty addressed to the Senate, has for its objeft, to inform you of two important particular..—The otre is, the Marriage of Prince Eugene with the Priam' Augusta, daugh ter of His Majesty the King of Bavaria. The miter is, the Treaty of Peace concluded at Presbuigh, on the 2Gth of De cember, and ratified the next day at the Palace of Schoen brunn„ near Vienna. After paying some compliments to Prince as c ems, the speech proceeds: "This marriage thews how much the Fool:serer apprecia:ss the n I of the ancient 'lousy. of Bavaria, whose attacliinent to France has at all times been firm i and how much His Ma jesty is touched with the courage and fidelity, of which the Bavarian Nation, and Its illustrious Chief, have given such proof:, to the danger of their greaten interests," dm d:c. LETTISH YEWS HIS MAJESTY THE surtson, .10 THE SWEATS. " SIN A Tots-.Nace his heels concluded at Pr,aburgh, and ratified at Vienna, between me and the Emperor of Allbllll. It was me wish at a solemn Sitting to inform you myself of the cond•tions; but haring, some time since, agined with the King of Bavaria on the marriage of my son, Prince Eugene, with the Princess Augusta, his daughter, andJaeing at Munich, at the moment the celebration of the Ma•riage is shout to take place, I cannot resist the pleasure of remaining with the •ourig couple, who are models of their sex. I am, besides, desirous of using to the Royal Muse of Bavaria, and to the brave Ra , a..an Nation, who have rendered me so many ser •:ces, and have sheen me so much friendship, and whose an cestor; were coast/lA.ly united in policy and in disposition with France, this proof of my consideration and my particular esteem. . 6 The marriage is to take place on the 13th of January. urinal in the midst of my people will thus be retardwl for •nine days. These days will app:ar Wog to m• heart ; br, aft:r having liven unceasingly occupied in the duties of a Sol dier, I experience • tender relaxation in occupying myself With the business and the duties of a father of a family. se Not wishing, however, to delay longer the publication Constitutional Statutes, that it shout , ' be communicated to you with iut delay, in order that it may be published as a Lew of the Empire.

A new musical farce, from the successful pen of Mr. COLEMAN, called, "Welty by Night ;" or, Long Stories, was brought forward at this Theatre last night. It was written for the Haymarket Theatre, last Summer ; but its representation was prevented by the deAth of His Royal Highness the Duko of GLoucur sir. A very lively Prologue, admirably delivered by Mr. Fawcarr, announced the piece as a farce of the broadest kind ; and such it really is. It takes its title from the flight of two lovers, and the long stories of an old blind General. The Piece was announced for a second representation, amidst the loudest plaudits. The Overture and Music are the composition of Mr. Ksi.r.v, and possessonucl. :aste and sweetness. FRO 3! LAST SIGITT'S GAZETTE.
