The farther consideration of the Appeal Cause,
, elm Glasse], of Long y, Esq. It. the Earl of
ea'ys., being resumed, Mr. Grant, as second
Counsel for the Appellant, was heard at considerable
length.
The hearing of the Counsel was interrupted by
the business of His Majesty's Commission, Err
eignitying the Royal Assent to certain Bills. Bring
ordered from the Bar, tl.e House was adjourned
during pleasure, for the Lords Commissioners to
tobe, who, on their return, the House being e-
aimed, took their seats on the Bench, in front of
the 'llirone.
The Commons appearing at the Bar, with the

fied, under His kiLijesty's Commission,to thirty-three
'Public and Private Bills. Among the former were,

• his argumerts ; but
The LORD CHANCELLOR, who seemed to
hare his mind made up, as to the merits of the case,
addressed their Lordships upon the subjea. Ho
concluded a general, bat perspicuous statement,
by observing, that under the circumstances, he
should have to move the House to affirm the judg-
ment of the Court below. His Lordship having
snored to this effect, the Decree of the Coast of

GLORIOUS VICTORY.
At six o'clock yesterday morning we received, nv
EXPRESS, the following important intelligence, dated
Portsmouth, 9 o'clock, p. ra.—" This evening,
Captain COCHRANE, landed here from His MA-
JESTY'S ship Kiehmfisher, with dispatches from Ad.
nsiral Sir Jona DeCKWO a Tit, with which be imme-
diately set off express in a chaise and four for
London. He brings the pleasing intelligence of
the defeat of a French squadron in the West Indies.
We have received die following very important
particulars in a letter from an Officer in the fleet :
I feel extreme pleasure is sending you a hasty
account of the action we have had here. We were
on the point of sailing for England, when we re-
ceived intelligence of the Enemy, by the KI,/
fisher. A Danish schooner, that had been taken in
tow by the French squadron, arrived at St.Thomas's,
of which the King:fl,-h.fr was cruising, and gave it.-
formation of them ro her, and. 121414 t fortunately, she
got a westerly wind, proceeded to St. Kitt's, and
found our brave Admiral,who, you may be sure, went
immediately in quest of the enemy. On the tith of
February, we discovered them, three leagues off the
town of St. Domingo, where, we have since ]carnal,
they had landed 1500 men. Ilaving intelligence of
our approach, they weighed anchor, and stood to
windward to shelter themselves under the fort of
Aux-Cayes. We instantly attacked them, and, after
a smart anion of two hours and a quarter, completely
defeated them. We captured the three following
ships: Jupiter, 7 guns; Diomede, 74; and Alerand.r,
74; L'lmpe►ials- of:140 guns ; and Le &wave of
80, we drove on shore, and burnt. Two frigates
and a corvette, the remainder of the squadron,
escaped. Our force consisted of the Superb, of 74
guns, Adm. Sir Jon Ducawoarn,Capt. KLAI is ;
Canopus, 80, Admiral Lours, Capt. ACITEN; Nor-
thumberland,74, Rear-Admiral Hon. A. Coen a A NE,
Copt. MS) RRISOM ; Spencer, 71., Hon. Capt. STOP.
roan; Donegal, 71, Capt. MALCOLM; Ada:, 74,
Capt.Pvm ; and Agamemnon, 64, Capt. Sir E. BERRY;
the Magiricane frigate, 32 guns, Capt. MACKENZIE;
Acosta frigate, 40 guns, Cant. WOOO ; and King:-
fisher sloop, 18 guns, Capt. C seuRAMa. There were
500 killed on board L'lmperiale; and the other
French ships suffered much. It is with great sails.
failion I have to add, our loss was comparatively
small, considering how closely we were engaged.
We did not lose one commissioned Officer. Ad-
miral Ls Smote, who commanded the squadron,
whose flag was on board L'haperia/e. was, with all
his surviving Officers, made prisoners. lie follow-
ing is what we have learnt from some of the French
Officers :—ln December, eleven sail of the line,
with frigates, sailed from Brest. Soon after. they
separated into two squadrons, one of which our
I Admiral Chinni in vain, s•f the Canaries. It is

c;ipisns;.l to have gone to the East In Sec. J eneu r
Bost AT A RTZ 14 in the Ze,kiror, and cc:turn:loi that
cvadron. It i; very Semenate that Sir loan Dectt.
wo grit detached the POW, rid, of 74 guns, to the East
I:l,:ies, to give intelligeace and reinforce our fleet
there, Rs soon as he lost sight of the enemy off the
Canaries.—Captain Coen rta sc, who goes home
with the dispatches, is made a Post Captain into
one of the prizes. I have not time to say any mote.
only that we arrived sale at Jatnaica, scith the

prises.'
i‘ We congratulate the country on one more im-
portant victory ; and will only add, that we have
no fear a good account will De given of JEROME
BONAPARTL'S squa.lron, if it Iris proceedesi to
the East Indies. Our force there consists of five
sail of the line, besides frigates ; and we have four
sail of the line at the Cape. It is, however, not

improbable, that JEROME BONAPARTE'S squadron
may be also bound for the West Indies, in which
event it is feared the French frigates, which effected

thOr escape, may have proceeded to apprize him of
LE SEIGLE'S defeat."
The above account was confirmed by the arrival
of the Ilsn. Captain COE/MA/M. at an early hour,
At the Admiralty•Ofnce, with the dispatciles. As
soon as they were opened, the FIRST LORD of the
ADA/MAE-Tv sent the following letter to the Right

Hon. tie LORD MAYOR, w•liic`.t was communicated
immediately by his Lordship to the Gentlemen at
LLotrD'S CoEee-House, in the foll..wirg letter :

Admtralty.ol.te, 6lArch,l9L6.
I.ORD..Di+p►tchee were received, during the bight,
from V ice-Adm.ral Sir I. T. Duckworth, of which the inc:o.cd
is an :11.tract. I beg your I.rtictship to accept my cociva+ii:Atinna

on sn glorious an event —I have the honour to be }our Lord-
ship's most o'uedient and watt humbler servant.

ADaateALYY OIFICI, Masten 93, IfOn.
Captain Cochrane of His Majesty's ship King,fiTher, ar-
rived early this morning with dispatches from Vice-Admiral
Sir J. T. Ducksionh, K B. slated off the town of St Do-
mingo, on the 7th and Bth ult. giing an account of his

having en the Gth of that month discovered a squadron of
French ships, consiling of five sail of the !:.ta, (one of them,
Le Imperiale, of three decks), two frigates, and one corvette,
at anchor in the bay of St. Domingo, whiLli, with the squa-
dron midis* his emnmand, consisting of .even sail of the

Three ships of the enemy's line WI into his hands,

The Right Hon. the Loan MA voc, proud of an
opportunity to confirm the grateful intelligence,
and receive the congratulations of his fellow-
citizens upon this glorious event, attended at
LLOYD'S Coffee-House so early as half-past seven
o'clock. A copy of the letter from the Fi ass.
Loan of the ADMIRALTY was also posted imme.
diately upon the front of the Mansion House ; and,
as the fineness of the morning had attracted a num-
ber of people, the news circulated rapidly through
the city. 'We also posted copies of letters of the
FIRST LORD of the ADMIRALTY, and Of the LORD
Ma voa, upon the front of TILE BRITISH PRRSS
Office, which attracted great crowds ; and se-
veral of our contemporaries alopted similar
means to give publicity to the news. An Kr-
traord;nary Ganetir, which we have inserted,
was published about two o'clock, and the Park
and Tower guns were fired in honour of the
event. The fineness of the day had attracted great
crowds into the Parks ; and the report of the guns
was the first intimation that they received of the ar-
rival of some extraordinary news. It produced a
great sensation among them. Many immediately
quitted the Parks, and returned to town to inquire
the cause. Pedestrians and equestrian- put them-
selves in rapid motion ; and the whole West end of
the town was all bustle and anxiety, the people
pressing from all points of it towards the Admiralty,
to ascertain the news.
Of the British squadron which accomplished this
gallant achievement, the Canopus was formerly the
French ship Le Franklin, Rear• Admiral Er.A.sqvcv,
taken by Lord Netsots, in the battle of Ab.urkir ;
the Donrgrl was formerly the French ship IA
Ilarie one of the French squadron dispatched for
the invasion of Irelands and taken off the coast of
Donegal, by Sir Jowl BIIIRL•SE WARR'S, in 17,1 ;
and the rlzennesonan is Lord fsistioN's old ship,
which that 1411 ant and lamented Hero meat to visit

et Port‘mauth, alien he kit tailed from that prat
from England, previous to ;1 great battic• of Tra-
falgar, in wh;eh lie fell. Tl.e AgalitilllMOß it appeals
was commarded by the pliant Sir Ebwatto
Beatty, who was his Lordship's Captain in the
rwiguaril, in the battle of Aboukir. Of the other
gallant Chi,fs who tli,tingui.hed themselves 'loco
this occasion, the Hon. Captain STorrost) is third
son of the Earl of Cm:avow:a, and the Hon. A.

E, is youngest son of the E4rl of Dueno.

A letter term an OfScer cf Lord CA L Liticwloo's
fleet, received by the .I,lowe, which is arrived at
Plymouth, dated tiff Cadiz, the 22d of February,
says--" The departure of the Alone, for En land,
is very sudden and unexpefied. The Apvl•'o and
Rear, with a convoy from Epithetic], joined us on
the 20th, and proceeded the sane day for Gibr. drat-.
As the Straits are much infested with gun.bcats ar.i
privateers, •tkey were escorted by the Arhr..ir• r.
We learn from Nap!es, that our troops ss•crc cm.
barked from thence on the 19th of Jantr-y, and
that the Russians were to follow them. Beiore ae
received this information, the /abeprd had been sent
to relieve the Excellent, which has been lying at
Nardi s for some time. She will probably ►e Rat to
England, as her defeas ate numerous. The four
!nixes taken on the 21st cf ()Sober, off Trafalgar,
are still at Gibraltar, not yet commissioccd."

Mr. CURR AN is appointed Master of the Rolls in
Ireland, in the roc-m of Sir Ditch sec SMITH. who

long celebrated as a forensic Grater ; but his politi-
cal coralmit is pc;itaps not less entitled to public
