FROM THE FRENCH AND DUTCH PAPERS.

-

•ARTS, MAY 29.
Our Papers contain the following letter from Vi-
enna :—" For eight days past the following affair
has engrossed the whole of the public conversation.
14. Movie, the banker, a French emigrant, who
was partner in a home at Augsburg, during the late
war, with M. Hermite, another emigrant, having
mahred a large capital in consequence of his con•
essitii,lis with England. afterwards opened a banking
Mute on his own account at Vienna, mid COGIASINA
to make payments for the British. 'this banker
liar been accused by one of his servants, of export-
ing gold contrary to the law, and the hut informa-
tion, state/ that he was upon the point of seeding
away eight casks of ducats, and sovereigns d'or.—
This accusation was founded, Babouin was taken
into custody, the cash confiscated, and the servant
received a considerable reward. In the mean while
it is remarkable, that Babouin, a French Emigrant,
and a Commissioner for the English Court, has
claimed the proteilion of the Ambassador of a great
power, pretending that the money in question be-
longed to a foreign General, who died at Vienna
a short time since. The Ambassador alluded to, it
is raid, has aftually intete,teJ himself in the behalf
of Babouin, who, nevertheless will be punished ; as,
admitting his plea to be valid as to the property, he
Lad no sight to send the money out of the country
without a passport."

THE NEW MILITARY SYSTEM.

Mr. WINDHAM then rose, and addressed the
Hone to the following effect Sir, after an in-
terruption, proceeding from a circumstance which
mast be very generally regretted. and many un-
availing solicitations from some Gentlemen oppo-
site to me, I rile, at length, to call the attention of
tie House to the application of those principles,
whichs from having so often taken occasion to
state ea them. they may naturally suppose that,
when I came into office, I should be anxious to
ratty int 3 effea ; that gentlemen should be natu-
rally led is draw that conclusion I can easily ac-
csunt for ; but if the expeaation be enter-
tamed, that I should propose to reverse the game-
tal plan of military measures so long adopted
in the country, I have only to observe. that such
an expeaati.iii is not founded in any thing that I
bare ever taken the liherry of submitting to the
House, nor even in the nature of the thing itself.
The great defea which I found in the arrangements
il'therzo made. was, that they seemed to be only
aJapscd to the necessities of the moment; bit, in
a measure vrl ich is calculated for the permanent
an.liiary improvement of the country, the greatest
care and caution is required. and time must be taken 4
for due d.lih:ration. I certair4 did state very
wrong objeaions to the system heretofore pursued.
but I never said it was so bad. that every part of it
most be reversed. Those gentlemen who seemed to
anticipate a general overthrow of every thing that
has been heretof,te established, must subjea them-
selves to the fair inference, that they were ail uated by
a consciousness of every thing being so bad, that
they mast be altered. 1 kat sentiment they never
hard from me ; for I never thought things in such
a Rate, that they were incapable of being rerseshed.
az i 1 true. that every change from good to bad
sh slid always be as little delayed as possible : but
an aff.ir of such magnitude, and calctilated (or
essential and permanent purposes, all rational men
RiLl are*, that a little delay is much preferable to
abf &tree of precipitation. As I before o'neeved,

common journals ; in many points, erroneous ; and
in all, imperfect. 'they have also heard an'nouneed,
with equal concern, other publications, which,
though they may be, in some respeels, less unsatis-
faaory, cannot but fail in giving a just idea of
the lae Lord NELSON'S chaLtaer and conduct, as
no material communications have been made to
the persons who are engaged in them, from his
Lotdship's family. They, therefore, feel it a du-

that they have selected a Gentleman of high res-

PIKEIGN TREATIES.
After some time had elapsed,
Lord MULGRAVE entered the House, and ob-
served to their Lordships, that in reference to what
he had stated on a former evening, he should have,
by command of His 111;_jsty, to lay before the
House, on Monday next, some additional papers,
and documents, relative to the Treaties, copies of
which he Lid on the table last Tuesday. Of these,
the prints were ready for delivery. When the addi-
tional documents should be before the House, on
Monday, he should have to trouble their Lordships
with some observations, ur on Tuesday, at farthest,
respefting the nature and effefl of those Treaties,
and the seasons for the farther communication of
papers to the extent to which they should be laid
before the House, and why a farther selection of
papers was deemed unnecessary. He hoped what
he then said would be sufficient to induce a full at.
tendaace of their Lordships, for the consideration
of what he should submit.

Alter some routine business was transalted,
Lord MULGRAVE again rose, and stated, that
on further consideration, he thought it would be
proper, in order to insure a full attendance for the
discussion of a subjen of such public magnitude
and importance, to have their Lordships summoned;
and, as Tuesday next would most probably be the
day on which he should have to submit the consi-
derations to which he alluded, he should move,
that the Lords be summoned for Tuesday next ;
this, on the question being put, was ordered accord-
ingly.
The house immediately adjourned till Monday.

geared so predominant. if the pretensions of Mr
Phillips were urged upon political ground, ire could '
nply say there pas no 'vantage on that point, as
he believed both candidates held the same principles.
He believed, also, that the respeEtability and the
'competence of Mr • Branscomb would not be consi-
=dered inadequate to the dignified station for which
be was proposed ; and even upon an equal ground
of pretension on those points, he trusted the claim of
seniority would preponderate in favour of Mr. Brans-
comb, who was ready and willing to assume the ar-
duous duties of the office. and to discharge them
with honour and fidelity. He therefore begged
leave, with the most cordial sentiments of estimation
for his worth. es well as of regard for the honour of
the City of London, to recommend Mr. Branscomb

CONSPIRACY AT TRINIII,M.

We have heen favoured ,vith still later partieulare
of the insurrefirm in Tair.idad, in a letter from a
Gentleman high in office there, to his friend here,
dated Dec.l9, of which the following is an extras :
•t We had nearly experienced a rebellion of the
Negroes here, and a general ITI43SACTO of the Whites.
which, had it taken place, would have involved .11
the Windward Islaed' in general devastation. The
explosion of such -a volcano here, as well as at St.
Domingo, would have completely overwhelmed,
not only the Ilritish, hut all the other colonies. We
have arrested several flee Negroes; from St. Do-
mingo, who were banished by Colonel P;aml, but
were afterwards suffered to return. 0e of the
Kings, or Emperors, a Negro save of Shand's
estate, has this Jay been executed in the Square in
town. To-morrow, six others of the Ronal Dy-
nasty take their leave of this world ; and the se-
verest scrutiny is making into the views and ohieets
of these nefarious conspirators. Colonel John
Gloster discovered the plot in the valley where he
is Commandant, and made immediate communi-
cation of it to the Governor, who sent a strong de-
tachment of regulars, in the dead of the night, and
took all the conspirators into custody. Their uoi.
forms and standards were found concealed. The
Council has had a permanent sitting of eight days.
Mr. Ilegorrat has singularly distingni.hed himself,
by his great aftivity, labour, and talents ; and the
unwearied sol:citude and precautions of our excel-
lent Governor, General lieslop, are aL.nve all praise.
The proj•fls of these scoundrels were, to get pos-
session of all the white men, and grind them in Mr.
Shand's new windmill, and they were to cast lots
for the white ladies. Not a child was to have es-
caped their fury. The plans of these monsters.
have, fortunately, been completely frustrated, and
no injurious consequences are now apprehended."

On Monday se'nnight, the annual meeting of
the Dock Ccmpany was held at the Guildhall. in
Hull; when the accounts fur the year 1805 were
audited, and the sum total to be divided, &dared
to be 1.1221. 14s. or 7 1. 15s. 10.1. Fer s!%..re,

• •
the sp:Satnrs appeared to sympathise. The grntest
order. and tra•lMllity prevailed durirg the whole
ceremony, and no disagreeable accident occurred.
Few persons, besides those composing the exten-
sive cavalcade, were witnekses to the solemn cere.
mony af inhtiming the deceased, as the gates of the
Abbey were ordered, by Townshend, tha Police
Officer, to he closed, as soon as those ranke4 in the
Procession, had entered. Some little confuiim was
the result of this, and a few persons obtained for-
cible entrance, ere the constables could succeed in
fastening the gates; that once eTe&eti, until Ow
ceremony was over, they were not re-opened ; and
everi those who had tickets of admission, signed
by the Kings at Arms, knocked in vain at any of
the doors for entrance:

However, soon after the procession had kit the
Abbey, as the concourse was rot very great, almost
indiscriminate admission was allowed to those whose
curiosity prompted them to look into the grave of
the great Chatham and his son. The vault is in the
North aisle, whither the Procession moved as soon
as it entered the Abbey, without proeeeding to t!.e
tnclosed nave of the church. The aisle was cover-
ed with matting, and the opening of the vault
surrounded by a railing, covered with Mark
cloth, as well as the floor of the quadrangular
Mel-sure which the railing formed. Within
this the spenatots were admitted, and walls. 4
round the mouth of vault, immediately under
which the remains of Mr. Pitt %vete deposited,
on the left side of his father, the great Earl cif
Chatham, whose coffin was also exposed. A ledge
on either side of the vault seemed to support t}..se
two coffins, whilst under them were discovered the
coffins of the late Countess of Chatham, and Lady
H. Eliot, her youngest daughter, and others, con-
taining the ashes of members of this noble family,
who had before become tenants of the grave. 'The
coffin ni the Earl of Chatham did not appear to be
otherwise impaired, by having laid near twenty-
eight years in this dt eiry mansion, thin that the
black velvet with which it was covereJ, was some-
what affeaed with mildew. The coffin is about
two incites shorter than Mr. Pitts, but appears to
have been the prototype by which the latter was or-
namented.

Many persons indulged in lingering ever the
grave, until the sold ers, who were glazed in the
aisle, were obliged to hasten t'ieir departure. Some,
with glistening eye-iids, then snac!ted a last look,
and qnitted the sacred spot wiih the ejacuLtion,
that it contained all that remained of two of the
ow•reatest mttn that ever adorned this island.
It was late in the afternoon before the Abbey
could be cleared of strangers.
None of the Volunteer Corps were under arms,
which would have been the case, bad the funeral,
as at one timl intended, been a military one. The
morning was lowering, and threatened rain, but
tovrarirs twelve o'clock, the sun shone nut with
great brilliancy, the weather was mild, and it be-
came a charming day._ This was a very to:tun-ate
change. as-the Procession moved on toot, as.d a

Resolved--That this C 'tontine, oh-ervise with the deepest
eeneern and astonishment, that it is intended soon to revive,
in the House of Coconterii, the question of a total Abolition
of the Slave Trade, and declares it to be highly proper, that

I lid it Colonies.
Resolved—That this Committee warmly approves of the Bill
now depending before Parliament, fur enabling His Majesty in
Council to regulate the intercourse which is to be carried on
between the British West ladies And America in Neutral Ves-
sels; and considers that this proceeding has (alienated in a just
attention to the interests of the British West India Colonies,
and is recommended, by long *ape/nonce, which has plainty
evinced, that a regular and adequate supply of Lumber for the
use of those Settlements, and of Food for the sustenance of
the People thereof. cannot be procured without adopting
measure of that den-riptimt ; mid that it appears 'to the Meet-
ing to be indisputably true that the Commerce, Revenue, and
Navigation of the British' Empire,- most be most essentially
beilefifid by a plait which powertully encourages the eultivas
tiros and improver/1i r,t of the British West India Colonteil, by
securing I. their inhabitants the. Means of sniasisteoce, and by
providing for the Planters of those valuable Dependencies, the
articles of Timber, which are indivensibly ttecemair foe the
