It having been considered by several Colonelgof Regiments, and other tieneral Officers, that a Fete should be given to the Duke of Wellington, to testify the high estimation they en tertain of his military career: his Royal Highness the Duke of York, confident of the general feelings of the Army, has Leen pleased to desire, that a Committee - might be appointed to tarry the'intentiomiuto rswcution. A Cotmaiitero ae conlingly formed at Richmond House, pf %Nikki: . the ..uke of Richmond was President, and came to the following Resolu tions _ _ _ Resolved, That a Circular Letter be written to Crecy Gene ral Odieer and Colonel of a Regiment in Great Britain and Ireland, to know if he choose to become a Subscriber of a su►n not exceeding 95 guineas.

On Saturday the Duke of VELLITCGTON visited Marshal BLUCHER, in St. James's Palace. • The two highly distinguished Warriors walked omit soon after, arm in arm, together : an immense crowd soon collected and followed them, and when they got to Pall-Mall, it had increased so mach that they could scarcely .move,- when a strong resolute fellow among .the crowd • seeing the inconvenience the great characters were put to, exerted himself, and made.a line of about two feet wide for them to pass on ; the huzzaing was without ceasing. The- Noble Duke appeared to enjoy the scene very much. This day Viscount MELVILLE, Sir J. YORKE, and the rest of the Lords of the• Admiralty, em barked in the Admiralty barges, at the ToWer Stairs, for Woolwich, in order to witness the launch of the Nelson, one of the finest ships that has ever issued from a British Dockyard, and con-. sequently not unworthy the immortal Hero whose name it is intended to commemorate.

INDIA SHIPPING BILL, With an_anxiety propottioned to, • the impor tance of 'the subject, we again call the 'attention of the Pithlic.to the Bill which is to-night o read a second time in the House ofConmions,fot the en-. couragement.of"ships. built in India ; or, to speak more properly, for the removal of the bulking of large ships from Great ,Britain to the shoresot Asia. By au unexamp!ed stroy,-gl for the mairiten,ince of ancient notions and, established principles, Great Britain has preserved her own safety, and taught the world the ditlicult Jesson of regAining rights which had been destroyed, mid ,re-esta blishing instita6ons which bun been superseded by successful innovation. Specious reasonings Jnive been reetrumendesi by all the force of elo quence, and al-tful ridicule has been pointed 'with all t:le keenness .of malignant wit, against the ax i m i is w hi c h it was thought expedieut to sub vert ; but the tenacious regard ever felt for those institutions of our ancestor, to which we owe our greatness and prosperity, was suflicient to • repel the insidious attempts so earnestly made, and to give that stability to our counsels totd firm- IIeSS It) 0111' C011(illet, 'WHICH HAVE US, AND RESTORED ALL EUROM Bat in. which most essentially regards the in'etests and , Nvelfare of the community, it is at this 6ay to lJe essayed to throw .(twit those barriers of eon-iler -631 legislation by which our ancestors have pro tected the interests and secured the prosperity of the nation ; and a new system is to introduced, subversive of ail dim-it) ancieot provisions, and (14. .structive of all the safety and all the confidence •which had been derived from them. On this occasion, self-interest assumes the t o ne of liberality. and even of patriotism. .For the purpose of rapidly enriching a few tnereaatie .houses in India, a magnificent assertion is mane, •that the welfare of 60 millions of natives is at stake. Marvellous, 'indeed, is khis sudden atten tion, this spontaneous zeal for the comfort of these natives ; wonderful the discovery so r'keent lv made on this side of the water, that (he natives of India will all he starved, unless ships built at Bombay arid Calcutta arc allowed to be regisetrVd as British : astonishing the sudden light which has been shewu, that all the country trade which can be carried on in the Indian built shipping, ex tending to a coast of vast extent s and applying to the wants of so nearly millions of persons, cannot afford adequate encouragement to these Anglo- Asiatic projectors, unless the Navigation Law of England can _be laid prostrate bsfore theat, and the British ship-hod Tiers given up to immediate and total ruin. It has been proved in the Select Committee of the House of Commons, which has been-so long employed on the investigation, that the great ship building yards, which IN WAR furnished the fleets which protected the country, nod Is PEACE lIIAII7 taMed the artificers dismissed from the public Dock-yards, are now without employ, and thu-. sands of workmen and their families reduced to implore parochial • relief, NviiiieJ new ships tire daily - arriving from the - East Indies; and more are daisy expected.—lt has been proved that not the shipwright alone, but every artificer connect ed with the building., repairing, and equipment Of ships ; the rope-maker, sail-maker, block _coppers:lnt lt, and many, others, must sei► ler a huge share of this great calamity ; that the Revenue will be affected in proportion ; and that, even in a private and personal sense, the mis chief will be tell through many classes ofsahjects, from the ship-builder, whose art and labour are most immediately engaged, up to the In:Pi-owner, on whosee7,ta:e the timber lot building is produced. The British ship-builders have proved ti l; . o ail the calumnies so confidently advanced agani.n them, are utterly unfounded, and that the renort ed scarcity of oak timber is. a wicked ifivention.of interested persons, calculated only to terrify and to delude. It stands uncontradieted ; it is even a part of the case of. those who support the Indian cause, that large merchant. ships can no' longer be bui, r in England for the India trade, if once the teak ships are admitted, to registry under the Bill now before Parliament. - Thus while competition is the pre text, monopoly is the aim. Were circumstances equal, the British ship-builder could make his stand effectually against the competition of the whole world ; but it. is not to be supposed that in a country where every individual, from tee pro prietor of the forest down to the h um bl e .day labourer, contributes so largely by direct contri bution, and ny indirect taxation, to the debts and necessities of the State, an effectuaf , sstruggie can be maintainefl, in pint of price, against those who employ workmen, feeble indeed in their per sons, and inexpert in their laboars, but free front wants and unincumbered with expellees. 'the system of excluding, or at least of subject ing to very high duties all those foreign i)roduc- Lions which vie with our domestic .manufactures, has alone enabled Great Britain to sustain the weight of her public burchens, and to keep her ample share of the- commerce of the world ; but it is now attempted, in this high and most important intance, to introduce a enzinge, called for by no circumstances of political lie, cessity, and invoked by no considerable body of his MAJESTY'S subjects, either at home or in the foreign dependencies of the State. Jr is required-, that the power and the means of building large ships in private yards shall be given up ; and that .that resource, so important in peace, anti so avail able in war on great an d s udde n emergencies, Shall no longer be under the eye and open to the requisitions of the Government, but shall be re moved to a distance, which even were it secure, would tender it often unavailabie ; but which circumstances, which every sound politician must take more or les:s,into his calculation, may place in the hands of those, who, .Itholigh, not na turally aliens or enemies, may become indepen dent, or even hostile. We therefore hope his Majesty's Government will hesitate,, before the Bill in the present shape is pressed further on the attention of the LegiSlature, and that full and ade quate protection will be afforded the i3ritith Ship builders and Shipwrights, who haVe surely equal, it not superior, .claims to public. consideration with the linen and silk manufacturers. Much more might be said on this vital subject. , We however cannot suppose that this • impolitic and unpopular ineazure will be persevered-in.
