Commons -for- their concur rence, to theAmendinent. The LORD CHANCELLOR proceeded to state at considerable length, his opinion relative to the Scuts Appeal, Mstizi Es v. BREsFORD; WhiCh stood, some time past, for Judgment. The Noble and learned .Lord, in treating of the Case, which' he viewed . solely upon' legal grounds, displayed his accustomed talents, and intimate acquaintance with the Laws or 'North 'Britain, concluded by moving- ;.'t proposition for the adoption of their Lordship, the result of which was that the Case should he remitted back to the consideration of the Court of Sessien— whieh meeting_.the concurrence of the lords-present, was forthwith ordered by the House. • A number of return-Bills were brOught from the Comnions by Sir IL GAMON, Messrs. BRAGG'S, 6TI+UTT, and CALCRAFT. ' Crewe's' Divorce:Bill, 'we hear, stands adjourned sine die. Some arrangements were made with respea •to postponing the hearing of Appeals to the next Ses sion, after which the House adjourned till Thursday, when it is proposed the present Session of -Parlia. ment Shall be prorogued by Commission. HOUSE OF COMMONS, TUESDAY, JUNE 30. THE Report of the Committee on the Downing College Bill was brought up, and agreed to, and the. Bill was read a third time and passed. Mr. VANSITTART brought up the Report of the Committee on the Salt. Duties, which was read, or dered to lie on the Table, and to be painted. Lord SHEFFIELD moved, that a new Writ \be issued for the Election of a Member to serve in Par liament for the County of Sussex, in the room of the Hon. THo. PELHAM, who has been called to the House of Peers, by the name and title of Baron PELHAM. UTi. Attnirr ninved, that_ a new Writ be issued for the Eta . lion of a Member to serve in Parliament for the Borough of Carlow,- in Ireland, in the room of the Hon. HENRY PRETTY, who has accepted the Office of Escheator of Munster. The House resolved itself into a Committee on Hayes's Divorce Bill. Mr: ADAM was heard as Counsel for the. Bill. A number of Witnesses were called in proof of the Adultery, which was clearly established. The Report was .received, and the Bill read a third time and passed. A Message from the Lords intimated, that their Lordships had agreed to the Irish Copy-right Bill, with an Amendment, in which they desired the concurrence, of the House, and to three private Bills. The House took into consideration the above Amendment of . the Lords, agreed to it, and sent back the Bill to- the Lords, with the information, that it had agreed to. their Amendment. A Message from the Lords intimated their Lord ships' consent to .the ConsOlidation-Inclosure Bill, and with an Amendment, in which they desired the concurrence of the House. The House afterwards agreed to the Amendment, and sent back the Bill to the Lords. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER rose to make the Motions which he had made an nually for seve-al years past, and he hoped that they would meet with the unanimous approbation of the House. The first which he had to make was, That an humble Address be presented to His MAJESTY, that he will be graciously Fleased to confer some dignity in the Church, on the Rev. JOHN BARTON, Chaplain to the House. This Motion was put and agreed to unanimously. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER before making his second Motion, expressed a hope that it also would pass unanimously, because he con ceived that every Gentleman in the House would gree with him in thinking, that the ,manner in which his Hon. Friend, the Chairman of the Com. fnittee of Ways and Means, has performed his labo rious and important duties, could not receive too high marks of approbation, or Meet with too great rewi.rd, from the, House. He then moved, that an humble Address 'be presented to His MA J ESTY, that he will be gr i aciously pleased to order the Muni of 1,2001. to be issued from the txchequer to. C. 131 t Act I, Esq. Chairman of the Commit tee of Supply, and Ways and Me',ms, in reward for his 'services in" that Office, during the present:Session, and to as sure His MA JESTY that the House will make good the same. Mr. CORRY did not know whether the sum now proposed was the same that was voted to the same enticman in preceding . Sessioni, but he thought that he should not discharge his duty, nor rio justice to that Hon. Gentlenian, if he did not take the present opportunity of expressing, on his cisvn part, and on that of the Country of Ireland, the sincere testimony of esteem and gratitude, which lie, and that Country unist ; equally feel for the atten_ Lion which that am. cr..ntleinan has paid to its in erests, and for the admirable manner in which he Jas discharged the new dtities the recent event of the Union of the Legislatures of Great Bri, taip Prl4 Ireland, has imposed on him. He 41d not ;mean to inquire whether the additional 14bpur whio 014 cYc9F 145.4PpcMg4 p bi 44 - re1446 any VTLP sum to be noted to him than 'that no,w proptsed.' He only wished. to give his testimony in favour of the manner in - which these duties have been dis.. Charged. 4 ThelVlorron was then put and agreed to unani mously. The CHACFLLORic of the EiCHEQUER then severally moved, " That an Humble Address he presented to His MAJEsrY, that .he wilt be graciously pleased to order.such a sum ;of money to be issued to JEREMIAH DYSON, Esti. Clerk Assist ant to th`e house, as together, with 'the fees of his Office, shall make up the clear sum of isool. and to assure His MAJESTY that the liouse will make good the same. " That an Humble Address he presented to His MAJESTY, that he will be graciously pleased to order such a sum of money to be is:ued to Jogla cLEMENTSON, beputy Serjeant at Arms to the House, which, toge.ther with the fees of his Office, shall amount to the clear sum of sool. and to assure His MAJESTY that the House will make good the same. " That the Journals of the House, from the end of last Session to the end of the ;-resent Session of Parliament, together with an Index to. the Stich Volume of the Journals be •printed, under the in. speAion of join , / LEE, Esq. Deputy to the Clerk of of the House. • " That tsoo Copies of the abovementioned Jour. 'pals and Index be printed.—That no person but the one who is appointed by the Speaker, shall, preSume to print the, same. • " '[bat an Humble Address be presented to His MAJESTY, that he- will be graciously pleased to direCi that the sum of sool. be issued to Jour DUN, Esq. to enable: him to carry on the Index to the Journals from the 45th to the 56th Volume, and to assure - fits MAJESTY that the House will Make good the same. " That an Humble Address be presented to His MAJESTY, that he will be graciously Pleased to dired that the. sum of 24.01. be issued to JAN WH I TMAN, Esq, to enable him to print the Index to the votes of the House during the present Session, and to aiitire His MAJESTY that the HoUse will make good the same. - • ". That an Humble Address be .presented to, His MAJESTY, that he will be :.graciouly pleased to. Make such allowances to the Clerks of the House who have attended the Public Committees during the present Session, as he shall see proper. ‘c That these' Addresses be presented by such Members as are of his Majesty's Privy Council." • All these Motions were severally_ put and agreed to unanimously. • r Mr. BRACGE brought up the Re pt:: of the Com mittee, on the general Standing Orders of the House. The Resolutions of the Committee were read, agreed to, ordered to be thenceforth Standing Or ders of the-House, and to be printed. -Mr. BR AGG E brought up the Report of the Com mittee on the Standing Orders . of the House relative to Inclosurcs, which was also read and agreed to. Lord SHEFFIELD said, the Country is much 'indebted to his Hon. Friend, for the ,attention he had paid to the Standing Orders, •and• to the Aft which had just passed relative to Inclosures.' . They may be of use, particularly in .saving some- expence in respeft to Witnesses ; but they are utterly ina dequate to the exigency, and the Country will be much disappointed, and, .in his opinion,. with rea son dissatisfied, if it should be supposed this is all that is intended to be . done . : He said, the Country had suffered extremely; particularly the two last years, frOm - something more serious than mere apprehensions of famine. A scarcity of Grain had raised the price in this and in other Countries with which we trade so high, as would have, been prohibitory. of the use of it to a great-proportion of the, Community, unless we had yielded to. the: dan. gerous policy of feeding the 'people at-the- public ex pence. • _ _ I - Toalleviate the distress, in the course of two years we haVe enaaed that the Peopleshould eat stale Bread, and we have granted Proteaing Duties which may bring here the iimited . quantity that-can be had from other Countries, and we have thus rais, ed the price abroad so high, that the present pro teaing Bounties Will not. -indemnify the Importer; particularly from America. To,obViate the recur rence of such . distress, the Country loudly called for. a General Inclosure . and Cultivation 'Of the Waste Lands as a certain and only sure relief; and in answer to their prayers we have just passed-an Act which, it was obvious to every - person who un dersood the subje6t, could do very little indeed to wards the attainment of the object in question.— He observed, there was a disposition to do every thing that can ' be done • for. the relief of the Country, which is checked by •an appre. pension that certain persons in another place, that even an individual,. would Obstrua. It was ommon to say, that no essential measure .must be attempted ; that we should endeavour to get a little at a time, an by attempting more the whole mea sure will be lost ; he should observe, that in the mean time the Country might starve and be ruined ; that he should ever reprobate such language, and that we Should be unworthy our situation in that , House, if eve should thus 'oe prevented from bringing . forward Measures which- may save the Country from Famine and Bankruptcy. If we should not succeed, the People will be satisfied wellad done our duty, and the public d'issatisfaftion would fall only on those whose ill-founded opinions and views, whatever they may be, counteract the public welfare : he observed, we must not be deterred from attempting to relieve the Country by high stranding phrases, that a CoMmutation for - Tithe in 1 4iiirl would 'sap the foundation of all property : those to whom that kind of argument is addres;ed, must he imogined very ignorant and very weak it seems to st),Hse that Modtises,, which are mere Commutations for Tithe had not existed for mink . • • ? • centuries in this Coontry ; it seems to pass over the circumstance that the greater part of the Acs of Inclosure do the . very thing, and allot land for Tithes.--4-le added, that the distress of the Country : has been and is great, he therefi)re ha , l much pleasure in learning,- that several Gentlemen had t he intention of bringing forward some measure on the cubjeet: it aff o rd 4 him great satisfaaio - ., thi n !;.. in 4 as he di t i, that it w9uldotheFwi*bc i9ctiLubct4 on him to offer some measure to parliament. He flattered himself His Majesty's Ministers would bring farwiiici some great measure; he knew they - had not tegleded that great, subjel, and that they would fairly consider the dangerous . consequence :of depending on . other Countries for subsistence ; the Uncertainty of it, and the ruinous expence, if we could - obtain the quantity of Grain we want . ed ; .they will find that on an average of the last ten years, we hid paid 3,300,0061. annually to Foreign Countries for Grain, arid in ,the last year, namely, i 800, we have paid upwards of Ten Millions Six Hundred and Forty-nine. Thousand Pounds, which is more than double the heretofore boasted balance of Trade in our favour. He concluded by saying he should not then trouble the. House farther than by :movin4, " That in all Bills for the inclosing or improving any waste or uncultivated Lands, there be inserted a Clause, empowering and direding the Commissioners, to mark out or award - unto the Tithe Owner, an allotment of such waste and un cultivated Lands to be once ring-fenced by the Pro prietors of the adjoining allotments thereof, in lieu of all Tithes to arise from all such waste and an_ cultivated Lands." He observed, this merely related to Land that had never paid any Tithe ; and . that he knew the Cultivation of large Trads was pre -vented in consequence of the difficulties which arose with respect to the Tithes. Mr. BR4GGE thought, that such a Motion as that now made by the Noble Lord would have been more fitly made at the beginning than at the close of a Session. He agreed perfectly with the Noble ,Lord,'in thinking that every means should be used for facilitating,the passing of Inelosure Bills, and hewas happy to be able to state, that a much greater number (no less than 12 i ) of such Bills have passed this Session than in any former one. The greatest number of Inclosure Bills that ever passed before in any Session was eighty-seven ; this. num ber passed in 1797. .Last year only, eighty-one were passed. This circumstance would perhaps be consolatory to the Country. , Whatever might be his-opinion of the measure. proposed by 'the Noble Lord, he could not at . the present - stage. of the Ses sion, and in consideilation-that it had already:under gone full discussion and been rejefted, give his sup port to it. No person seconding the Motion, it was not put. Mr: VANSITTART moved, " That the ['louse, at its rising, 'shall adjourn to Thursday next.'' The Honse immediately (at six o'clock) adjourn ed till Thursday. From the LONDON GAZETTE, June. 30,, 1801.

THE SUN. OLEM QUIS DIOERE FaLsetif AUDZAT ? LONDON, JULY 1, Igor, THE rapid intercourse whict the progress of Negotiation between the two Countries renders necessary, scarcely suffers a day to ela'pse withK out some arrival from Paris. A French Flag-of Truce arrived yesterday at Dover, with Dis , patchis foi M. OTTO, and with Par;: Paper s to the 28th ult. which we received last night. Their, contents are unimportant, with the exception of what relates to Portugal. The Spanish Official Accounts confirm the surrender of Campo Maggiore. The first Division of their ArMy was marching against E f uora. We do - not however,' find, that Italia: had yet surrendered ; nor that the fate of. any other place of importance 'had marked the suc cess ,which the Spaniards ,ascribe to themselves.- The Journalists of the Western parts of ,France, still persist in asserting the probability 'of Peace . between the Republic and Portugal ; and their °pi'. nions are supported by a Letter from Gen. Mot:- NETT, which is to be found under the head of M a ntel . Morsano. ME intelligence received_ on Monday front Egg pt' is evidently of the most advantakeoUsFq-. tire, and:particularly interesting to.the•Military L 1 1 3; server. The attack, first of Rosetta, and afterward! of Damietta, explains the plan adopted by Gener4 HurculNsor. We. See that he has attempted to; render himself, in the first In§rafict7trllastet of the whole country between the Wester n B ranc h o f die Nile and the Desart. In this he must have had se« • veral views—that of removing the French still far« ther from that point whenee it was not physioalli impossible, for them 'to reccivC "assistance,4llal9‘ cutting argil communication between the two mairi points, COair and iflexandria.,-that, in short, of making himself master of the , Navigation of as Western Branch of the Nile, and of placing himself in a situation by which he might, if the oast should require it, make incursions into the Delta, eitheeto procure provisions for himself there, or to annoy'. the Enemy. General . HUTCHINSQN has completely succeedect in these different objefts, and he will probably •be! soon recompensed by the final result. Cairo, th 4 Citadel of which alone is capable of resistance, at , " tacked on theonc, side by the English and Turkish Corps, under the orders of the Commander in Chief and the CAP ITAN PACHA, and on the other by the Army of the Gamsnz VI z lit, which was al. ready between El Hanka and Cairo., cannot fail tQ yield either to main force or to an easy blockade. The 'small ships which can be sent up, the Nile will be of great use in this respea, 'and much may bc expeaed from the inhabitants, of Cairo, ivhocati. not have forgotten the massacreofwhich their CitY was the scene. , . Cairo and Alexandria being blockaded,_ and ja them the majority , of the French Troop - s, oar own Forces must remain masters of the field, and are, in faa, more in possession of Egypt than the French. This circumstance, the possession of the uncontest ed Dominion of the Sea, .the accession of a reinw for Cement of 3000 English Troops, the . co-opera' tion of theC4tPxTnrr PAcHA with General Ht/Tco.. , ltisox and that of the.GR.AND VIZIR. with his , Army, the arrival of Admiral BLANKE-TT at Suez, a ha ascertained beyond a doubt, by the receipt of two letters - .from him dated from that place; the probable arrival t)f Sir PloNtv.' POt , IIAM at the same place : all these circumstances ; to -which- we c o uld add others, such as the compleat inundation of the count!) , round Alexandria,. the Fohable of the. defeated Corps, from the state of the country, and the disposition of the inhabitants, to reach Cairo, leave us .nCi.giotands to entertain any on. easiness as to the resistance..v‘hich General MENOIC can offer; or as to the Egyptian accounts which have lately appeared in the French Papers. Two Hasn4argh Mails became due this morning, neither of winch had arrived when this "Paper Was put to Press. Lord GRANTHAM; who embarked a few days ago for the continent, is'about to commence his diploma tic career under the auspices of Lord Sr. HELEN'S• 1
