The Duke of MON I'It.OSE declared his into.
tion of not entering into the mvits of the preNrnt
Bill, in its present sage, in coos‘quence of the
absence of two Nubia Friends ut hs., with wh.ne
opinions on that subjett, he WAS inclined to C‘iii.•

The Margins of ABEKCORN acfurcd 114
House, that, until that day, he was not acquainted
with the extent of the proposed measure. Uf
course, it was unnecessary for him to state, that he
wit not fully prepared to enter into an esarninitnia
of the mons of the present Bill. AL the same
time, he must express his opinion. that it ten Jed,
in the creation of new others, and in the eredn n
of new tribunals, direttly to infringe the Article* of
Union between the two countries.

The Earl of LAUDEithALi.expressed his cisn.
viaion of being'able, at the period of discussing the
present Bill, fully to clear up every ditiereuce of
opinion which might exist amongst Noble Lords, it
to its salutary tendency. He contended, that tlx

recollefled the measures subversive of those atticks,
winch that Noble Marquis supported in the House.
But he still was confident, that he would convince
even him of the merits of the intended regulazio,
and the necessity of its immediate adoption.
Lord GRENVILLE, in reply to me observatina
of the Noble Marquis, that the present Bill violatca
the artieks of Union, wished to impress no the
Hosts-, that a power VOW vested, even by the Aa
of Union, in Patharnent, to make such Aerations As

LONDON,
SATURDAY, MAncu 14,

The lrisl. Catholic Army and Navy Service Bill
was furth►r postponed, last night, in the House of
Commons, on the motion of Viscount Howicx.
from Tuesday to Thursday next. We understand
t!..at there is an ohjenion to tills measure, in a cer.
I.it. high quarter, independent of any opposition
% .;i,h it may experience in the House of Lords.
The Duke of PoaTi.4t42, it is said, has taken an
alive part. His Grace sat up until past two
L'clo:k, yesterday morning, writing letters to His
1k1.4•4! tr, the Duke of Motu( ROSE, Lord HAWK CS

ltrltrnbers of both houses.

The na‘i4ation of the t•.lbe, the Ems, and the
'Wryer, bent entirely under the controul (.1 the
French, our Government have resolved to blockade
these rivers. An Order to that died is expeeted to
appear in this night's Gaz,r,e.

Dispatches have beep received by Government,
dated the 4th inst. frown hlr.Tisoan ton, the British
Minister at Holateit• _

Two Gottentargh mails arrived, yesterday. with
letters and rapers to a late date. The Stockholm
Post states, that BONA PASTE'S plan, if successful at

would rave cut the Rus,ian Army completely in

Some tat ther extra.% from the French and Dutch
Papers, recci'icd Yesterday. are given in our last
Page. They relate chiefly to the operations in tl e
Tutkith provinces, but the inteihrence is very un-
satisfsellory. The Austii.n Army is ready to take

duce a hope that it will Ja Lo. Their PRUSSI AN

been marched off to the army. Captain SMITH
has brought no Dani,h Papers.

The Charleerlirmed ship, arrived at Crimshy on
the evening.dr the 10th inst. from Hehgoland, tc-
ports, dui on the 17th but, a sharp engagement
took place at Eylau, between the Russians under the
ce.mmand of General BENato:,eti, and the French
under the command of Marshals BERNADOTTE*
Nev, and Souir, in which the latter were defeated
with considerable loss. We find, from the Bul-
letins of the Grand Army, that the French head-
quarters had been removed, between the 17th and
18th, from Eylau to Landsherg, and this retreat
may have been the result of a defeat. There is also
a passage in the fiOth Bulletin, which leads us to
think that the Russians have obtained some suc-
cess subsequent to the &h. It is stated that a corps
of 1000 Cossacks had released 3000 Russian pri-
soners. The report brought by the Charles, we
think, however, alludes to the great battle of the
Bth, at Eylau.

Yesterday. Viscount HOWICK and Lord GRAN.

Yesterday, was issued from the Army Pay-Office,

Sir /lout Polio m's name was called over last
night, in the House of Commons, as one of the de-

already excited a good de•al of ex peetation.

The yiasio, THPMSON, Master, which has arrived
in the River from Memel, has brought a copy of
the public notification of 'he battle of Eylau, which
was passed in that tnsin, announcing the result to
the public. Ti e following is a translation:—

PR4)CLA‘IATION.
" The Governor aa' Chamber of Magistracy have to con-
. frigate their Yellowtaiseris, that Official Accounts have
this day been ir-,etved, that after repeated battles, from the 3d
to the 9th, the Coo Mord Armies of Ri.ssia and P. us.ia had
obtAined a complete Vict.ny over the French. The result of
the victory had I.eri, twenty Eagles ; fourteen of whi,..11 had
beets awarded to General lienwßseu and the Rtinian Army :
the remaining six had been ',resented to His Majesty the
Knit of Prussia. frencli had lost twenty thousand men,
w h.. w.re dead on the 6-Id of battle.
" The cant' st had heel, no obstinately maintained on both
side., that both Prwrich and R.lStiltg hats refused to accept of
any quarter from each other. A batty of 1,300 French, who
had been cut off during the battle of the 7th, had been sue
rounded on the Bth by the whole of the Russian Army...they
refusul to lay down their arms or accept of quarter; bu Ge-
nerel Benitigsen, after a sharp attack, made than sensible
of their Randers resistance, and ruinous deiv,,e-ation, and in-
clined them to surrender at di,cretion. Thew ale the only
prisoners taken. The Russians remained encamped nn the
field of battle, on the 10th ; the Fre. ,li had retreated two
I,,agues. General Rennigsen expelled a strong reinforcement
of Cossacks, and the jiinCinn of the Silesian Levy ; when, it is
supposed, that he will pt.isue his vißoe,.

• " " By Older of the Chagebtr of Magistracy.
" If. K LOPSTOCK."
The above notification accounts for the dreadful
slaughter on the Bth. It appears, not that neither
army would give, but that both refused to take
quarter.
The Porte having demanded of the English Am-
bassador, what part his Court would take in case
of a rupture between the Purte and Russia, the
Minister answered, that F.nglaud would remain
neutral, provided the Porte did nut form any con-
nection to aEI in concert with Prance.

The Lady Charloth., for Stockton, and two other
brigs, are on shore in the )lumber; a brig sunk
going tip the Humber; and a sloop, laden with corn,
has foundered on that coast.

The ifsphoicm, Cu %MHOS. and the LeittS Pec/a,
frnm Newcasile, are lost on the coast ot Lin-
colnshire.

The John, Lir:coos, for Boston, is on shote in
the Clyde.
Letters have been received from a person of con-
sideration at St. Petersburgh, which contain some
further particulars of the battle of Eylau than have
yet been published in this country.—Bon *PARTS.%
Guards, it is known, were amongst the troops that
attacked the centre of the Russians. They went
into battle about 1200 along, and only one Officer
And thirteen men remained after the aiflion. The
French Reserve was ordered to advance to the attack
of the Russian centre: they refused, and were or-
dered to be fired upon by one of the French divi-
sirns. They returned the fire, and several ware
killed on both sides.

A vessel arrived from Holland, on Wednesday,
which sailed from the Tesel on Saturday last. On the
following day she tell in with the Creaser gun-hrig,
standing off and on, watching two Dutch frigates,
which had just left the Texel, supposed to be part
of a squadron bound for Batavia. Hopes are enter-
tained that some of our cruisers will tall in with
them.

The four men belonging to the smuggling lugger,
wls:ch lately fired at a Custom House boat, were
brought out of Dover Gaol, on Wednesday evening,
in irons, and put into two post coaches, with the
Gaoler, and four constables, for conveyance, it was
supposed, to Newgate. They were escorted by a
guard of twenty light horsemen.
So clearly is it already perceived, that the greatest
interest of the present State Lottery Scheme at-
taches to the four first days' drawing, that adven-
turers seem determined not to risk, by delaying
their purchases, a rise on Tickets and Shares. In
truth, so brisk a sale is already experienced, that the
event al a rise may very speedily be expected.
