Notwithstanding the 'unlaVontable weather, the Gentlemen went through ff , their d‘rent evolutions with great spirit and ac curacy. His Lordship expressed his approbation of their appearance in the most flattering terms. The Volunteers returned to the Bank about ten o'clock, to resume the business of the day. lAA HARR usaios and his Staff went to the Bank at ten 'o'clock, on an - invitation, to breakfast ,with the Governor and Directors. At elevtn o'clOck his Lordship and attendants repaired to Hyde Park, to review the %VLSI MINSTER CAVALRY. Yesterday having been appointed for the Review of this fine Corps, a detachment, composed of drafts from the London and Islington Corps of Cavalry, about zoo in number, arrived in Hyde Park about Lill-past nine o'clock,to take possession of the ground on which they were to manoeuvre. Atten the dif ferent troops ef the Westminster Corps arrived from their resi•eaive places of muster, and form ed in a line from south to -north, on the .extensive / 14 1 extending from Grosvenor.gate to Oxford_road entrance into the Park. They mustered about 200, and Ittaclea very martial appearance. A few minutes before t weive Lord LIARS I NGToN arti,,d. His Lordship cod suite passed akrig the front of the line, returning bet ,s eel) the ranks, and took their station nearly in the ventre of the north site of the plain. Here the 'Corp , marched by him by squadrons, in Slow time txeellent order. They afterwards passed his Lordditp•by single files, and, forming as they ar. Tivid at the extremity 'of the plain, passed him again by, squadrons, at a quick pace. They then formed ortosite to his Lordship, and went through the several branches of the sword exercise -with sue. prizing dexterity. This was . done by the whole body, while stationary ; but a party of twenty-four was immediately after'detached from the main body which charged, four at a time, in full gallop, across the Plain twice, in view of the General, at the same time performing the various motions of the sword exercise. The Corps was then put through their d iff e re nt . volt] tioni o ;Ind acquitted themselves With considerable aka.. They charged by troops and in li ne , in a manner that would not discredit experienced Regiment.. The Review terminated hot one.o'clock. Lord HARR iNGToN expressed himself highly satisfied' with their steadiness, and soldierly appearance, and declared that he had never icnown a Volunteer Corps-in a higher state of dis. tipline. His Lordship then left the ground, and colonel Et.otot communicated to this Corps the honourable testimony borne to its merits, by the aptobation of so distingOished an officer as his Lordship. As soon as the Review was over, the London and Islington detachments formed on the West s and in marching off the ground, defiled hi front of the . Westminster Corps, which paid them every read by a military salute as they passed. CM OF LONDON VOLUNI'LERS.

Some attention ig Will also be due to ships stationed for a defence of 1111 s importance; several of them are nearly ready.

Mr. INGLis . taking the Chair, good humoured!), observed, that the best advantage the Trade could take of his worthy Colleague's absence would be to go on briskly with the Sale . ; he then seriously gave it as - his opinion, that the Duty on the STRIKE would nor be relinquished by Government.. Mr. KEMaLE exclaimed, " we do not despair; while there is life there is hope.". Mr. WILLI/IW, returning, said that under all the circumstances, and the opinions ,of. the Law Officers not • having been received, helia&atithority from the Chairman to adjourn the Sale till Friday.

The person who was taken in the American shit , . at Portsmouth, as related on Tuesday, was carried co board the Gladiator, and examined as to his being the brother of the FIRST CONSUL. His appearance bears tia strong affinity to an Indian Jew, which is said to be a corred semblance of JeftoMa's features. Mr. ROTH ERYi (Admiral MONTAGUE'S Secretary), Lieutenant CARPENTER, and several persons wile have before seen JEROME, went ,to examine this person, but nothing satisfadory could be obtained. The master of the ship reports that be ltft JEROME BaNAPASerit at Baltimore : his baggage, and the persons who were to , accompany him art on hoard t h e ship, and they'agret 'exactly with the descrip. tion received by •Governirient. By a letter yesterday from Plymouth, we learn, that the Pilot lately apprehended on hoard an Ame rican brig bound to Havre de Grace, has effeeted his escape. He is an Englishman, and in the last war was a pilot on , board one of • His Majesty's Ships of War, but absconded from thence, and has since been' employed in' the-French service. His name is jObn Gillian , .and being an Englishman,it is feared, will . be the means of facilitating his • escape.

T.Ht Coirmisssioners flr the purnOsei of Assiis. 'mg .and CoVeeting this Tax have had meetings in many diTerent pails nf the Country, and we hear, from vii6ms varters 'char ex'retne diaicnities are felt in carrying the MI for levying this duty into execution. Indeed we wereawate that these ditii cult►es must' he fel - , fo'r the ,CitArrcELLOlt df the F.XcH NU FR solely fOr the porpoie, as we imagine,. of making the measure his mun, and to avoid call:. ing it an Income has rendered the whole measure so complex and so difficult of execution, that we much doubt «hem her the Commissioners will be able to, Carry it into effea. It is true' t h at somet i mes it was &Roe& to he an InromeTav, then a Tax upon Capital, : and then something par. taking . of both. The definition was t ,hit tet i to meet the particular objeal,m that was made.—Like must other of the measures of His Majesty's Mini. stern, it ended in a shape totally different to that in which it began, and chance and accident wire than plan and intention, ultimately decided, its form. Taxes, however, must be paid, anti to a. very large amount, and we heartily wish the .. CommisSioners 'under the MI may be able to execute their part, but many of them have assured us that they cannot c::mprehend the Aa, and all of them seem to be aware that the Appeals will be so numerous, (in consetinence.of persons in possession. being to pay the duly in the first instance) that daily attendance , and that for a considerable .tiMe, will be necessary to go through this part of their duty. Ptplana„ tions of various parts of the. M;t ; are expeeted from the Tax. Office, and we should hope that as soon as Parliament meets, the whole will be put into more intelligible and amore prafficable shape than it appears, iii at pre:ent. Wily Do IVE GO TO WAR A Pamphlet tinder this title, certainly most.ably wricen, wa's published a short time since..-some- Copies of it circulated, and the work was suppress. • ed. While we admit the ingenuity with which an attempt, is made to prove that there is no ground for Waron.our part, we cannot assent to the- . con. elusions of the Author. We are certainly'not Ad. vocates for the condo& of Ministers in . the manage ment of the Negotiation with France, and we agree that no uniform line of condua was held by them to. wards France, from the Treaty of.Amiens to the breaking. out of the War—that sometimes they were disposed to concede every thing, and that at other times they were so obstinately stilt*, they - would not grant 'even, tint which was reasonable—that their whole cmulutt was ,Wavering, uncertain, and irresolute—and that ultimately.they,called upon the Nation to arm, upon a false 'pretence, viz. th.e ex. istence of Armaments in the. Ports.of lirance. and Holland. AU this we know to betroth, but, we. cannot admit that we have not received repeated in. .suits and provocations from France, from.the Signa. lure of the Treaty of Amiens, .which we ,think,sid. fteient ground of. War on our parr, and which we. only wish had been noticed as they would have been by a firm and vigorous Atlministration, at an earlier period. Hut when the CHtsp Corset. saw that one insult was followed on our part by the cession of a West India Island—another by the cession of, the Cape of Good Hopi—what could he think but that he might insult us with impunity 13ot though tie conduti of Government might, and wecertainlv think did, in a great degree, invite those insults, they were not,the less insults, or such as it becomes the Nation to feel and to resent. .
