CIVIL LIST.—COPY of TREAsI7RY MINUTE, dated February, 1816. My Lords are of opinion, that towards making good the Deficiency of the Civil List on the sth January last, the 3 per Cent. Stock, now standing in the names of Mr. Harrison and Mr. Litchfield, and which was transferred to them as Trustees for the Crown, in virtue of a Siva Manual Warrant of 24th August, 1815, the same having been decreed to his Majesty in right of his Crown, as the undisposed Residue of ---- Trouthack, Esq. deceased, who died without heirs, should be sold, and the proceeds of such sale paid into the Exchequer to the account, of his Majesty's Civil List Revenues. My Lords are also of opinion, That it is right and proper that out of the Droits of the Crown such a sum should be paid into the Exchequer to the account of his Majesty' s Civil list Revenues, as, together with the Sum to arise from the sale of mh ntinue.l, will be fully sufficient to dis charge the estima•ed amount of the Deficiency of the Civil List to sth January last. The Earl of Liverpool and the Chancellor of the Exchequer having also represented to the Board, that his Royal Highness the P►iuce Regent has made considerable additions to his re sidence at Brighton, his private property, both by additional buildings and by purchase of land to annex thereto; they are of opinion, That it is just and reasonable that an aid should he afforded out of the said Droits, to the privy purse of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, towards the dis charge of the expellee incurred by his R., Highness in making these additions to hia residence at EH:4l)ton, his pri rate property: and they are theref•►re pleased to direct a warrant to he prepared and submitted to his Royal Highness the Prince Eeent, for issuing; to the Right Honourable ..11'Malion, the Keeper of his Privy Purse, the sun) of Twenty Thousand Pounds o►► this account. The Earl of Liverpool and the Chancellor of the Exche finer having also tejresented to the Board, that an expence has been incurred in providing furniture for the additional buildings at Brighton ; and it appearing to my Lords that it could not have been in conte►nplation that the extraordi nary expence of furnishing these additional buildings be longing to the residence of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent at Brighton, as his pr;vate property, should he a charge upon the Civil List; they are of opinion, That a sum not exceeding 50,0001. should be appropriated out of Droits, to discharge these expencts : but as this furniture, though not provided" through the department of the Lord Cham berlain, must he considered !►s belonging to the Crown, they are of opinion that the account of the cxpences actually incurred should be submitted to the examination and con troul of come perso►► or persons to be appointed by this Board, and that no bill should be paid which should not be deemed by such person or persons to be just and reasonable ; and that the person or persons to be appointed to this ser vice should mahe out an accurate list or inventory of the whole of the Furniture so provided, or of any other Furniture We received this morning tl►e Paris Papers of 'Monday last. The King I►eld his usual Court on Sunday, which was attended by the Mini,ters, the Mai slials, a great number ut Peers, Deputies, and Pubiic Functionaries. The following are CitraClS " PARIS, MAY B.—An event which appears to be of the greatest imput sauce took place on Saturday night. We (G , izeite Fttince) can guarantee theau thenticity of the details. - The Count Angles, the Pletect of Police, having been intorwed that a new explosion was to be prepared last night, near the windows, of the Duchess de Bet be pro ceeded, at ten at night, to the Thuilleries, to the apartments of Marshal Macdonald, 11 , lajor- Gieneral on duty, aft er having adoptetithe necessary preeautiens to surpliZe the waletactor in Ilagrunte delielo. At a quarter past twelve a man made his appearance very silently at the wicket of the Rue de i•Echelle, and placed (bete a Petard, containing one or two pounds of powder ; at the IllUfflcnt of his departure, by the aid of a lighted segar, he ignited the match ; the P.,lice agents theu precipitated themselves upou and seized The brave soldiess of the Royal Guard ran to the spot in consequence or the noise ;. their indignation was extreme, and the Police agents had some difficulty at 6rat in making them selves known to them—on reaching the guard house, the wretch cried out, ant lost,' d ud tell imensible. Vu recovering he wits iutrtru g .,ted j his name is Graviers ; he was formerly au °Meer in the sth Regiment of Lancers ; he is a little ill'itmking man ; he had about him copies of a horrible verse against the Royal FAmily. Yesterday morning at EliX o ' clock, in coiesequence of the di,closures made by Gre viers, three persons were arrested, one of whom is a mail courier named Bouton. The ex cellent arrangements made by ;llarshal Macdonald contributed essentially to the appetteusion of Graviet s. " Fur some time (says the Journal de Paris), this individual has been watched by the Police, and it is to the wise measures concerted by au thority that we owe this important arrest. "'flee Duke d'Angouletne,who arrived at Lyons on the 4th inst., did not make a public entry, and cleclintd the honours which it was proposed to pay to him. His Royal Highness was to remain there till yesterday. The Duke Decazes is still at , Lihourne. " M. tic Blacas, the French Ambassador at Rome, will, it is said, return in a few days to Pat is. " The Emperor of Austria was to set out on the sth inst. to proceed to Betlin, where, about the 121 h, be is to have an interview with the Em peror-of Russia and the King of Prussia, on the bobject of questions which have not been decided by the Congress of Vienna. " YRuN, NIAY 1.,--There is nothing important from Madrid by the courier who arrived this morning. A Royal dectee orders the raising a Militia consisting of persons lrom 18 to 50 years of age. It is said that.the troops of the line will be disbanded, and that the officers will be ittcor•- porated with tl►e Militia. " All "the official dispatches which arrive at the Capital from the Provinces state, that the Con stitutional system is every where making progress. Patriotic societies are forming even in the' vii. lages. " The Navarrois are determined upon hating Mina sent away from cl►eir novince." %I re received this mot uiiig American l'Apers co the 15th April.

CONGRESS, Arm E. 7. " NAvIGATIoN BILL.—The Senate resumed the consideration of the Bill supplementary to the Act concerning NavigatioO. .Mr. BROWN stated that, in framing the the Committee of Foreign Relations had conformed it to the instruc tions of the Senate, as contained in the Resolu tions introduced by Mr. KIUG ; but it appeared to him that' the object of the Bill would be more effectually - attained, and some trouble saved, in perfecting the details of the reported Bill, if the existing law were re-enacted with the additional features which this Bill proposed, the pre&:ent Bill being merely an extension of the plinciples of the Act of April, 1818; Mr. B. therefore offered an Amendment, which seas substantially to re 'enact the povisions of the existing Act, and to evend it so as to apply to all the ports of the British West Indies, the free ports as well as those %hick have been closed. This Amendment Was supported by Mr. KING, who added a few remarks to what had been submitted by Mr. B:towN, its explanation, which was chiefly to render the Bill less ambiguous or doubtful than it might be its its original shape. The Amendment Was adopted without objection. Mr. PARROT, after a few remarks, to slew the propriety of his motion, proposed so to amend the Bill as to ex temd its provisions to tdl ports and places its Upper or Los.% er Canada, but iubsegnen:ly changed it, so as to apply to Lower Canada only. The Bill was then• postponed to Monday. " WAIniNGToN, Ann. 12 —roe Charge d'Af faires of the King of the Netheildtitts has left Washington, and will embark at New York on his return to Europe." It, has long been the known and determined object of this Paper to resist the demands of insomuch that THE SUN has been styled " The Parson's Paper," on account of the Many ruhniiable Correspondents which the subject has drawn forth, whose communications have exclu sively appeared in our Journal. As we per ceive that the Papists resolutely persevere, and will not be satisfied with the possession of an unlimited toleration of their Religion, we . call upon the Members of the Protestant Church, and more particularly the Protestant HIERARCHY, to - be equally resolute and per severing iu resisting their claim to Political Power. Notwithstanding the ROYAL DECLA RATION delivered - by his MAJESTY from the Throne, usual at the beginning of a Reign, and which we inserted on tlonday last ; notwithstand ing the peculiarly impressive and solemn manner in • which His MASESITY delivered that most important Declaration, a Declaration essential io the security of the National Religion, as if be wished to manifest to the world at large that nothing should induce him to bring time Protestant Church in danger by any concession of Political Power to PAPISTS, we find that nothing can deter them from the pursuit of their favourite object, the pos session of that Power.-- We find that, 'in pursuit of that object, an Address wasiesterday presented to his Majesty at the Levee, front the British Ro man Catholics, imploring such concessions as would 'be a violation of that SACRED . OATH which his MA3BSTY is to take on the ensuing CO RONATION, as a solemn assurance to his People that he will never consent to any thing that , can endanger THE SECURITY of the CONSTI 7 TUTION in CHURCH and STATE. The Addressers acknowledge that " even the most private ex ercise.of their religious duties no longer sub jects them to sanguinary punishments."—What • could they possibly want if a participation in the Political authority of the State were not now the sole object of their ambitious persever ance ? This very toleration perhaps may be deem-. ed too great, for in " the most private exercise of their religious duties they may, as indeed 'they do, consider it as an essential, duty to make con verts to their faith, and consequently to endea vour to sap - the fotindation of the Protestant Church. We therefore not only c all upon • the Hierarchy, and all the subordinate Members of the Protestant Church to come .foret-ard with in. defatigable zeal, in support of that Church, but upon all Members of Parliament in both 11051'5, at this awful..and interesting crisis, when the ene mies of our national Religion are preparing again to enter the field, anti have endeavoured on this occasion to enlist the SOVEREIGN in their Cause. Our columns shall be open to their. communications on this viral subject. We have recently introduced in our Paper many strik ing isaasages from the Letters of BEITANNICUS, understood to be written by a loyal and learned . Layman of Leicester, which first appeared in our Paper, and have been recently cud lected.in the form of a pa inphlei,. and we deem it our duty to take fartht-r notice of that excellent work, which contains the soundest argtiments, the j 111!)3i ilijitfdlto;l3, an,l ;rreii - 3 ,4 gable facts in opposition to Popish Ambition. We refer onr Readers to a Letter in Tus SUN of this day, signed ANTiPAPA (see our fourth page), from a respectable Correspondent, whose cow• monications we have before inserted. The subject is of the utmost importance to the safety of the State, and they whose duty it is to come fore ward on so moment.ous an occasion will be guilty of the most reprehensible neglect if they do not, and will be responsible for whatever danger may befit! the Country, if it were possible that POPERY should be permitted to have any share in our Led. gislative authority. nut paid for out of the 'aloe private- ;11f in order that the same may he I-edged in the (Mize of the Lord Chamberlain, and that the Furniture ni;iy be taken under the care trf that Department, as Furniture belonging to the Crown.
