THE BRITISH PR-2,SS. I .ON DON, TFTURSDAY, JUNE 2G. A report prevailed yebterday, that the Earl of Sr. VINCINT is to resume the situation of First Lord of the Admiralty; that Viscount Ilowic is to be Chancellor of the Exchequer; Lord HEN sY PETTY to succeed Earl TEMPLE in the Army Pay Office; and Earl TEMPLE to go to the India Board. We notice this arrangement merely as a report, without attaching any credit to it. We announced, yesterday, the conclusion of Peace, and the rewestablishment of tranquillity in India. Copies of the Treaties with SCIADIA and 1-loutAs are given in our last Page. It appears that most of his ancient territories are to be restored to lismsas ; part immediately, and part at the ex piration of le months, upon condition of his good behaviour in the interval. When it is considered that HOLLAa was represented as a fugitive, without followers sufficient to constitute a Body Guard, these terms may seem more literal than be bad a right to expel. It is fair, however, to presume, that his situation was not so desperate. As a farther security for hit friendship, and the perma nence of Peace, it is stipulated, that Hot I: AR shall never entertain in his service any European, with out the consent of the British Government. An article from Strasburgh, dated June 4, in a Dutch Paper, announces the arrival of M. D'Ousait at that place, on his way to Paris adding, that he was regarded as the harbinger of the consolidation of the Ptace of the Continent. Our Funds were something better yesterday than they were on the day before, from which we may infer, that M. D'Ounait. is not generally sup posed to be on his way to Paris, for the purpose of negotiating a separate peace. We have uniformly stated, that the state of the Funds, for some time past, was not the effet of stock-jobbing artiiice, but accompanied the progress of the official commu nications between this country and France. Mr. WILBRAHAM, the Gentleman who arrived with dispatches on Saturday from France, set out on his return on Monday, on which day the Funds experienced a considerable depression.—Subsequent events strengthen the opinion that the change is the Fends was eCefted by his dispatches. A Gottenburgh Mail arrived yesterday. It has Ilmest the Lillowitg letter from that place, dated the tech iostant " We have great reason to believe, that the difference+ be tween aim Cnrr•.try and PRIMA, will be speedily accuuuso dated, &math the ausdiaden of weve:ty gales of wind have been prevalent on this +e au fo• aqine tine pew . a eialcnt one, on the 12 h did a rood deal of damage eannnrt the Engl.•h both • ere and at the Sound.
