THURSDAY. .ILNI V.

We have received, from a Correspondent at Bom-
bay, copies of the Treaties of Peue, which have
terminated the War in that quarter, to the advance-
ment of the glory and interests of England. We
believe they are the only copies of these important
articles in England, except those read yesterday at
the India House ; a faithful report of the proceed-
ings at which place, we also lay before our !leaden.

It is confidently reported, that Mr. PITT meons
to bring forward a plan for the amelioration of the
state of the Roman Catholic Clergy in Ireland. Its
principle is to ',l:lke then: intirely independent of the
people, by assigning to them filed salArics, t•o be
paid by Government. The hiur Ant II RI %HORS. It i•
said, ate to have t2000',. a year, and the inIclio;"
clergy in the same proportion.

Mr. Foirt*, last night, drew a melancholy pi
ture of the finances or Ireland, in the House a
Commons.

A Court of Direelors was yesterday held at the
India House, when the following Captains were
sworn into the command of their lespetlive ships •
viz.—

Ttteclay night, in the Houle of Commons, that

of Mr. PITT, into the late Administration, tt•ould
have induced them to withdraw their opposition, 34
was melted by Mr. Pt t t, on Monday night.
