IMPERIAL PARLIAMEAT.

NOUSE OF LORDS.
Wtr)sr.srwe, MAY 25.
The House met at two o'clock, and, having gone
through the Bills on the Table, proceeded to St.
James's with their Address, which was most graci-
ously received.
In stating, yesterday, the division on the Clause in
the Militia- Families Bill, to prevent lirivates in the
Militia, while embodied and in quarters, from mar-
rying, %%idiom the consent of their Commanding
Officer, the numbers of the division woe Madsen-
ently misplaced ; it should, have stood,

Adjourned to four o'clock.
At toot the House resumed, when prayers were
again r..:1
The LorlCli:mcellor reported his Majesty's most
gracious answer to the Address voted by the House
last Monday, which was read at the table.
The various Bills on the table, all of which had
passed a stutze each, previous to the Cause proceed-
ang to St. Stones's with their Address, were read a
second stage.
The Earl of SUFFOLK (not perhaps perceiving ,
that Mr. Cowper was sweating witnesses at the bar)
rose, and prefaced a motion, which he meant to
make reipesling the Caledonian Canal across the
I lighlands to the Sea of the He'Jrides, with various
remarks on the great emigrations which had lately
taken place in the Northern parts of 6%)d:ult.], and
which were sail going on. He stated, as fut. us we
understand him, that no less than ityion had
rot:grated ass a few months, and said, he 1m hat to
wove that the report, which had been made to the
I Cornmous, should la. laid before that
Eagle.
The T .611 D CHANCF.I.I.OR said, he could
not put & nu.empo far A paps r, in the possession of the

Hates: of Lotninuns, trom the woofrack.
1./..r.1 A UCE.I..LN I) said, he spoke merely from
memiry. having A few drys since read the report
alluded to, but, as far as he could recollea, he be.
tiered the Noble Earl was extremely inaccurate as
•o the numbers, who were stated to have emigrated;
. in.ttas: of lti,eoo in a few month., the Report stated
Clem to be no more than 000 in one ye:tr.
• His Lordship crossed the I louse, and pointed out
to Lord Suffolk what the sentence was in the printed
viper which the Earl held in his hand, that best de-
wribed the sort of motion the Earl meant to move.
The I,ORIJ CHANCELLOR kit the woolsack,
and raid, he could not put any motion so informally
handed to him ; that he could not be sure of his
own correaness, unless the motion was handed to
him in writing in the usual manner.

Common; by Colonel Porter, Mr. Alexander, Mr.
Shaw Le Fevre, and others ; presented and mida first
time.
The Irish Law Courts' VIII next stage was ad-
journed to next Friday.
Lord SUFFOLK having put his motion into
proper form in writing, moved, that an humble ad-
dress be presented to his Majesty, that he would be
pleased to give orders, that the proper person do lay
before that House a copy of the Survey and Report
of the Inspeaors of the Caledonian Canal, between
the Interior of the Highlands of Scotland, and the
Sea in which the\Vcstern Islands were situate.—Or-
dered.
Lord HOBART brought down a Message from
his Majesty, for which see the Commons.
The Message having been regularly read,
The Earl of RADNOR said, no man would sup-
pose, that he meant to oppose the objea of his Ma-
jesty's Message. Considering that the country was
Involved in war, every man must wish to give the
Executive Power every possible strength. He rose
merely to observe, that, by the militia laws now ex-
istlng, the wives and families now existing were in-
vested with certain privileges, which, in consequence
of the Message just read, were about to be taken
trom them.
Lord HOBART spoke to order. The Noble
Earl, in what he had just said, appeared to him to
be rather speaking to a bill under discussion yester-
day (the Militia Families Bill) than to his Majesty's
Message, which had been just read.
The Earl of RADNOR contended, that he was
in order, and till the House said he was nut, he
should go on. Ile repeated, that, in consequence of
the. Message just delivered, they had every reason to
expect, that a bill would be sent up from the other
House, which would probably deprive the • wives
and families of militia non-commissioned officers of
the privileges with which they were, by the present
laws, invested. He therefore threw out the hint in
time, that due provision should be made for that
circumstance; and what he had said would save
their Lordships the trouble, perhaps, of hearing 'him
again on the subjea.
Lord HOBART moved, that the thanks of the
House should be given to his Majesty, for his most
gracious message.—Ordered.
The Earl o DARTMOUTH stated, that his
Majesty, in answer to an address of the House, had
given orders, that certain papers required should be
laid before the House.
Lord PELHAM laid several papers on the table,
agreeable to his Majesty's commands.
Adjourned at six.

HOUSE OF COMMON'S.
wEDNEsvxv, MAY 23.

Lord STOPFORD informed the House, that
his Majesty had signified his desire of being waited
upon with the Address, to-morrow at two o'clock.
The Sheerness Harbour Bill was read a third
time.
Markham's Divorce Bill went through a Com-
mittee, and was ordered to be read a third time.
Mr. PAT fON gave notice, that on Friday next
he should make a motion arising out of the papers
before the House, on the subjel of the French ne-
gotiation.
The Hon. Member was requested to state the
objeet of his motion, but he declined doing so.
Mr. GREY thought it an irregular mode of pro-
ceeding, not to state what it was the motion pointed
at. He said, whenever he had the honour of giving
notice of a motion, he had always described, in the
most distinct manner, what was the general objea at
which it aimed. He thought it was not afing fair-
ly by Ministers not to give the notice of an intended
motion in the most explicit manner possible.
Mr. T. GRENVILLE observed, that as the
wilole of the papers lay upon the table, it was com-
petent for any Member in the House to give notice
of his intention generally to move upon the subjed
of them, without stating to which in particular his
motion would refer.

Mr. TIERNEY said, that, knowing the candour
of the Honourable Gentleman, he was surprised at
the manner of giving notice of his motion. There
were papers of great importance branching out into
a variety of different subjeds, and he thought it
was not dealing with fairness towards his Majesty's
Ministers, or with respc& to the *House, not to state
the object of the motion, in order that Gentlemen
might turn their attention to it. lie was aware,
that, in point of stridness, there wiAS no necessity
for giving notice at all of a motion ; but it had been
usual, whenever a notice was given, to state dis-
tindiy the point to which it related.
Mr. CANNING said, he could not perfedly
comprehend the mature of objedions with regard to
notices of minions, tar he rementhered that objec-
tions had been made of a quite contrary nature to
the present one; namely, on the ground that it was
too general. He rememisered when an Hon. Gentle-
man gave notice respcding the detention of Captain
Auvergne, it was objeded, that the notice was
improper, at it was paAicular, and went to put the
House too much in the possession of the ease. Cor-
reded by the rebuke which Ministers h.:I been in
the habit of giving, with regard to notices being too
particular, an Hon. Centieman had thought proper
to give notice, merely that he had some motion,
arising out of the papers, to bring forward at an
early day ; he could not help thinking, that it was
not at all necessary fur the Hon. Gentleman to
state the precise point to which he meant to address
his motion; perhaps, if he had done so, there could
be no reasonable objedion to it ; but, if he had done
so, doubtless he would have been called to order, by
the very same persons vho now called him to crder
for not having done so. He confessed he saw no
objection to a more extended kind of notice, yet, as
Gentlemen had means of communication, it was a
mere matter of courtesy, and, therefore, he recom-
mended him, if he thought proper, to preserve silence
on the subjeCt. •
Lord HAWKESBURY said, it was impossible
not to make a few observations ; the Hon. Gentle-
man who spoke last was mistaken with regard to
the motive for objeding to the notice re-peeing the
subjed of Mr. D'Auvergne's detention ; the objection
in that case was to the propriety of the Honourable
Mover endeavouring in his notice to convey an im-
pression as to certain points of his Majoty's Minia-
tcrs condo.% If he might be allowed to state what
the present motion was, be would venture to assert,
that in the practice of Parliament there never had
been an instance, as to a question to ascertain the
°hied of such a notice having been refused. An
Hon. Gentleman had given make, that on Friday

R

• •
he would move some Resolutions arising from the
papers. He was asked what the general objet of
it was; being pressed he made use of some words
not properly understood, but from which it was
thought that the object of his motion was an inquiry.
He had then stated, that it was net a motion of in-
quiry, but for the House to adopt certain resolutions
respeding the conduct of his Majesty's Ministers.
If it had been merely a motion of inquiry, the Hon.
Gentleman had given all the notice that was required'
of him, but he left it to the candor of the House
whether his Majesty's rvlinisters were fairly dealt by,
if Resolutions were to be moved against them upon
a large body of information. Ile should be wady
to enter into a discussion of any subje& whenever it
should be brought forward, but lie thought he had
a right to complain of not having I)4= treated with
fairness :uid justice.
Doaor LAWRENCE rose, conceiving himself
particularly alluded to by the observations of the
Noble Lord. He denied that in his motion respeci-
ing the detention of Mr. I YAuvergne, he had en-
deavoured to make any impression on the House.
He was stating what were the objects of that motion,
when
The SPEAKER said, that the House must have
observed long ago that there was no question befOre
the House. It rested with the Hon. Member whe-
ther he would specify the objed of his notice. If he
declined so doing the matter was at an end.
Nothing farther was said.
Mr. GREN VILLE said, he rose, in consequence
of his notice, to move for two or three papers which
were necessary to he produced. The first was, that
there should be laid before the House, An Account
of the Dates of the Ac of the Spanish Government,
annexing to the Royal Domains the Possessions of
the Spanish Langue, belonging to the Order of
Malta, and the limes when they were known to his
.Majesty's Government."
He next moved, .% That there should be laid be-
fore the House, Copies of all such Representations
as had been made by His Majesty's Government to
the French or Spanish Governments, respecting the
Possession of the said Langue of the Order of
Malta."
The third motion he had to make was, one with
reference to the proposition on the part f the Em-
peror of Russia, to accede to the 10th article of the
Treaty of Amiens. One naturally looked to the
answer of I Its Majesty's Government on the subject.
He therefore moved, "That there should be laid
before the House such information as would shew
what answers had been returned by his Majesty's
Government to the proposition of the Emperor of
Russia to accede to the ,oth article of the Treaty
of Amiens on the cond:ions therein specified.
Lord HAWK ES BURY said, that as to the third
Motion, relative to the Answer made to the Russian
Government, he felt no objection whatever to agree-
ing to it. With regard to the first motion he had
no objection but one ; he was informed that his Ma-
jesty's Government was not in possession of any of-
ficial account upon the subjea. With respect to
the representations to the French and Spanish, he

had only to say, that there had been no communi-
cation prior to the correspondence ; upon that mo-
tion he should therefore move the previous question ;
the other motions he should accede to, subject to
the observations he had made with regard to one.
Mr. CANNING gave notice, that on Friday
next he should submit a motion to the I louse re-
speding the Commercial Agents sent to this Coun-
try on the part of France.
Mr. TIERNEY deferred his motion relative
to the Treating Ad.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
brought down the following Message from his Ma-
jesty :

" GEORGE R.

" I (is Majesty thinks it proper to aeroaint the House of Com-
mons, that he has judged it necessary to adopt, without &lay,
all the means within his power, which may contribu to to
riekat the avowed designs of the enemy, and to afford therm's
el•Aual protealun and security to his faithful people. •
" lit pursuance, therefore, of the Act; of Parliament, enabling
big Majesty to incre.a.g4the number of his Militia Forces, his
Nlajesty makes this communication to the Hausa of Commons,
to the rod th a his Majesty may cause the Supplementary
Militia to be forthwith raised and enrolled, and thoreafter to
be drawn out, and embodied, and marched as occasion may
require. 44 G. R."

The SECRETARY at WAR moved an address
to his Majesty for his gracious Message, which af-
forded a fresh proof of his Majesty's solicitude for
ensuring the welfare cf his people.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
gave notice, that on Monday se'nnight he should
propose the Ways and Means fur raising the supply
for the year.
Mr. FOX said, he rose to give a conditional notice.
He wished first to ask the Right Hon. Gentleman
opposite, whether it was his intention to adjourn
over nest Monday or Tuesday, as he was desirous
as early as possible to make a motion respaling
the .incdiation of the Emperor of Russia in obtain-
ing peace.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEOUER
said, it was intended to move, that the House should
adjourn from Friday to Wednesday.
Mr. FOX said, he should bring forward his
motion to-morrow.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
doubted whether it could be entertained to-morrow,
as these two orders for taking into consideration
Petitions complaining of undue elediuns: There
had been a communication of his Majesty's pleasure
to receive the Address of the House to-morrow at
two o'clock. The Act of Parliament respelling
petitions against elections, did not admit of the
House meeting earlier than that hour for the pur-
poee of disposing of them.
Mr. FOX said he would consider of a day.
The CHANCELLOR of thc EXCHEQUER
moved the consideration of the Newcastle-under-
Line and the Radnorshire Petitions, for Friday, and
that- the House should be then called over.
Mr. FOX gave notice, that he should bring on
his motion on Friday.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
observed, that the third reading of the Clergy Re-
sidence Bill stood for to-morrow, and his Learned
Friend who had brought it in was desirous it should
nut be delayed. He requested the Hon. Gentleman
to let his motion stand for Friday, and, in order that
the Clergy Residence Bill might notainterfere with it,
he should propose, what otherwise he had not meant
to have done, that there should be a post meridian
meeting of the House, with a view to a third rend-
' ing .of the Clergy Residence Bill.

' j~"

Mr. DUNDAS brought ep the Report of
the Address, which was read a first, and, after a
few 61)servatioas front Mr. Johnstone, a second

time.
Upon the question that the House should vsree
with the Committee on the Address,
Sir ROBERT PEELE said, that, upon a ques-
tion of so much importance •to the country, he
should be sorry to give a silent vote. He begged
leave to state, that he had a decided objeetion to
war. It was, at all times, a great national evil -
but it did not appear to him, -upon a perusal of the.
' papers, that it had been brought upon us by anyze-
cent ad of Administration. He considered that the
French Government had never been very anxious to
obtain the rock of Gibraltar. Its ehjea was direCt—
ed against the liberties and constitution of the
country, which afforded' sash a contrast to the rut- ,
ten system of France. He was persuaded, if we 114
not the bodily support of the majority of the peop:e
of France, we should have their good wishes fur
our support.
Mr. HENRY LASCELLES felt it his duty '0
support the war as absolutely necessary ; the col .
dna of France since the Treaty of Peace had he ft •
most atrocious to this and every other countr;,
violating their Governments, and adopting the most
scandalous system of coercion. Each of the pm-
vocations we had received,-would, in former tirne,
have been considered as a declaration of war. lie
saw no disposition the part of France to preserve
the relation of peace. If we gave up Malta e
should only have to renew the war in a few month ,
without the advantage resulting from the possession
of that island. He never had given any vote with
more satisfaCtion than the present one for the re-
newal of the war with France.
Sir W. PULTENEY explained the motives of
caution which last night induced him to vote in fa-
vour of the amendment rather thanthe original ad-
dress.
Mr. BANKS also wished to state what he had
not an opportunity of doing on the preceding night.
The grounds of his voting in favour of the amend-
ment lather than the original address, though he
must say there were passages in the amasndnient of
which he did not totally approve. He confessed he
was in so small degree influenced by the very bril-
liant speech of an Hon. Member (Mr. Fox), which.
evidently produced a great effeCt, and made a deep
impression pretty generally on the House. At the
same time he must add, that there were some parts
of that able aad eloquent address, in which he would
be disposed to offer some very few observations, if he
was not restrained by the absence of the Hon. Gen- •
tlernan who made it. There were some parts of it
highly unfit to be publicly submitted in discussion,
and which may excite very unfavourable feelings in
the public, if this country should unfortunately be
driven into a war.

Sir RICHARD HILL expressed his decided
opinion, that Ministers had uniformly exerted the'r
best endeavours fur the maintenance of peace. He w. s
grieved that they were unable to accomplish that el .
left, and lamented it as much as any man, hut co:
soled himself with reflthing, that they were a set f
men who would have left nothing, which could hay
that tendency, untried. He made not the small.' t
doubt that they were ready to concede much, ai d
would have conceded more, if they could have done
it with safety to the interest 11:.d honour of the
country. Considering the condition in which the
nation unfortunately was likely to be involved, he
was sorry that there was any disagreement math-
felted in the debate of last night, as to the language
of the address; and though a division took place, he
hoped it would now be considered as having been
unanimously voted. (Notwithstanding the gravity
of the subject, this /apses /epee occasioned no small
degree of louglger.) He was assured, he said,
that after all that had paved, if any means of ac-
commodation should yet present themselves, the
Ministers would be very ready and willing to avail
themselves of them.
Mr. HOBHOUSE adverted to some animadver-
tions made on the interference of his Majesty's Mi-
nisters in the affairs of Switzerland, which, in his
opinion, was that part of their conduel which stood
least in need of an excuse. It was generally, he ob-
served, the tete of an administration to be blamed
in different ways. Some persons had accused the
present servants of the Crown for having, by too
vitich concession, compromised the dignity and ho
nour of the country, while others maintained, that
they bad not gone far enough, in making sacrifices
to peace. As to Switzerland, however, even the
Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Fox) who, in the debate, had
exhibited such an admirable display of ingenuity
and talents, had himself acknowledged, that no-
thing could Wye been more gross and unjustifi.
able, than the conduCt of France towards that
oppressed country. He was aware that this was
not the time for entering at full length upon
the subjeCt ; but when the proper occasion arrived,
he would not decline an ample discussion of it. He
considered his Majesty's Ministers to be justifiable,
and commendable, in not being too precipitate in their
interference in the cause of a suffering but brave
people, whose situation might be considered a nearer
objet to other countries. They abstained for a
considerably time, but did not forbear using all the
influence in their power, when they found the Swiss
to he enslaved, and unable to help themselves. As
to further sacrifices they surely could not be expected,
standing with their own consent, as it were, in the
pillory of Bonaparte.
Mr. SHAW LEFEVRE also expressed his dis-
approbation of the desponding language used by an
Hon. Member (Mr. Fox) upon the former night.
The arguments made use of in favour of the amend-
ment, in his opinion, went quite the other way. No
good could arise from depressing the spirit which
almost unanimously pervaded the whole nation,
by representations of the distressing effeas of the
Income Tax, scarcity, &c. &c. The hostile temper
of France, as evinced in all the documents, was now
before this country, and he made no doubt, that the
spirit of England would rise with the necessity of
the conjuncture, and that the people, if necessary.
would be ready to part with their property, and
shed their blood, if necessary, to support the interests
and honour of the realm. The times, to use an old
expression, required 44 a long pull, a strong pull,
and a pull altogether." He made no doubt but
peace would again be restored, when it could be
done with safety.
Mr. WILBERFORCE said, though the vote he
gave yesterday prevented his joining that unanimi-
ty for which some members seemed so anxious, he
was happy to hear this day sentiments worthy of
the old English spirit of the country gentlemen.

x • •111111. . . .• • • -

lie merged, that the situation of Ministers was diffi-
cult, critical and embarrassing) but still he felt it
his duty, as a public man, and had long since learn-
ed to harden himself against the feelings and sug-
gestions of private friendships ; he therefore
~biettei to the words 44 uniform endeavour"
in the original address. He sincerely believed the
Ministers intended and wished to preserve the bless-
ings of peace, but he did not see that they took the
best means to obtain it. Every one was now na-
turally the friend of peace, with the exception of
some conquemrs who were the slaves of their nwn
ambition, and who fortunately in these times were
going fast out of repute, and attraled but little real
admiration. War could only be wished for as the
means of peace, like the inscription on the great
48 pounder at Dover Sic ptimus perm." The
line he wished to recommend to Ministers was to
accept the proffered mediation of the Emperor of
Rits;ia, and be was glad that they retained the pos-
session of Malta, which might by him be consi-
dered as a compensation for his services. Were he
quite sure that we had a good cause, and that war
must be unavoidable, he should lament, but would
not much dread the final issue of it, as the free peo-
ple of Great Britain, with its present population,
never would and never could be conquered.
Mr. ALEXANDER spoke in favour of the ad-
dress, and highly complimented Ministers for their
attenti,-in to the dignity of the country.
A desultory conversation ensued, in which Mr.
Johnstone, Mr. W. Dundas, Mr. Wilberforce, and
other Members took a part ; after which the ques-
tion of Address was put and carried ; and such
Members as were of his Majesty's Most Honour-
able Privy Council, were appointed to present the
same.
The other Orders of the Day were then read and
deferred.— Adjourned.

THE BRITISH PRESS.

LONDON,
THURSDAY, MAY

We yesterday gave the comniunication of the
rupture of the Negotiation which was laid, by or-
der of the FIRST CONSUL, in the form of a note
from M. TALL EYR A ND, before the Senate, 'Tribu-
nate, and Legislative Body. We hoped, at the
time, that we should be able to give, in our
paper of this day, the speeches which were
made upon it in these several Assemblies.—
In this hope, however, we find ourselves disap-
pointed by the arrival of a new set of Paris papers of
the 21st, which cont.tin the Message of the FIRST
CONSUL to these Assemblies upon the same subjal.
We have translated the article, and the proceedings
upon it, at full length.
A Message from his Majesty was last night
brought down to both Houses of Parliament, an-
nouncing his Majesty's intention to call out forth-
with the Supplementary Milit►a.

Mr. TALBOT, Secretary to the British Embassy,
left Paris on the COth.—General ASUR BOSSY arrived
at Paris on Friday moping last, at half past five
o'clock.
The French Funds on the 20th, were 50. 10.

Yesterday, a Court of Direetos was held at the
East-India House, whey the following Commandere
took leave, viz.

Capt. Raiit of the F.arl Spencer.
Gr.tbaro

Taylor Gl4)r) .
Yesterday a ballot was taken at the East-India
House, when Jolts INGLIS, Esq. was elated a Di-
reaur, to serve two years, in the room of Sir JOHN
SMITH MACES, Bart. deceased.
Yesterday EDWARD SMITH, Esq. Citizen and
Skinner, nominated by the. Lord Mayor, at a Court
of Mayor and Aldermen, on Tuesday last, to serve
the office of Sheriff of this city, paid a fine of 4001.
:tn..l twenty marks, to be excused serving the same.
An experiment was made on Friday evening last,
at the upper end of New Bond-street, with twelve
newly invented lamps and refleaors, substituted in
place of more than double that number of common
ones; and notwithstanding many unfavourable cir-
cumstances unavoidably attendant upon new under-
takings, we were agreeably surprised to find that
part of the street illuminated with at least twice the
usual quantity of light.—lt has been continued every
evening since under more favourable circumstances,
and the effesi has been proportionately increased.
We see none of that disagreeable glare, produced
by lamps furnished with rctrating tenses ; on the
contrary, the crescent of light exhibited in each re-
fleaor, over the flame of the lamp, is really a novel
and beautiful sight ; and we cannot but recommend
to such of our readers, who may not hitherto have
seen it, to avail themselves early of the opportunity,
which, the few nights more, the Patentees, Messrs.
SMETHURST and Pact, will contilauc the txperi-
=ant, May afford them.
