WEDNESDAY, M•IICH 5.

Mr. WiIITIREAD, last night, in the House of
Commons, presented a Report fi am the Con:tnittee
for managing Viscount MLivit Les Impeachment,
stating the necessity of an additional article of
charge, upon the ground, that they had di.covered
that, on the sth of April, 1793,Viscount M 1. a
had applied different sums, to the amount of 23,0001.
and upwards, to his private purposes ; but by sub-
sequent payments had reduced it to 7,6001. of
which the Committee could not find any traces of
repayment.
A letter from the ir in Madras

/arley, , _ Roads, states
that Hut t was in such considerable force, it
was ,thought advisable to send the troops which
went out on board that vessel, and the other India-
men, arrived at Madras, to be landed at the port
nearest to the theatre of his operations. The ;Farley,
and the other ships hound to Prince of \Vales's
bland, had sailed from Madras for that place.

The A 5.1 for the suspension of the Habeas Corpou
in Ireland expired yesterday, and we can positively
state, that it is not the intention of Government to
revive it. A Dublin Paper of the 28th contains
the following article, which we have reason to be-
lieve truly discloses the system of policy which the
new Ministry mean to pursue with resped to that
country:
" Lord SnaterssuaY, the Premier Earl of Eng-
land, and chief in rank amongst the Catholics of
the Empire, with becoming 2n/device and spirit,
took an early opportunity, after the new Ministerial
Arrangements were completed, of desiring, for
himself and Mr. Scuate (another member of the
late Deputation from Ireland), a conference with
Mr. Secretary Fox upon the subject of the Catholic
claims. 'lie Minister readily complied, and, in the
course of a free conversation, stated to them various
considerations, to recommend that the Catholic
Petitions should be deferred for the present. He
rested this recommendation chiefly upon the pub-
lic prejudices uhich prevail in England, and which
have been, of late, widely and adively diffused.
He said, that though the Ministry have not any
legislative relief in their immediate contemplation,
the Catholics of Ireland may be assured of a just
and equitable spirit in the new executive depart-.
ment—the existing laws in their favour shall be
faithfully executed in all respells, and especially in
the army—that the tone of puSlic officers shall be
more liberal, and the administration of justice such,
as to ensure equal prot•.9ion to all, without distinc-
tion of sea or party—that the relief and improve.
ment of the lower classes shall be particularly at-
tended to—and, finally, that the high and honour.
able persons, about to assume the government of
Ireland, are stedfastly attached to this system, and
sincerely inclined to promote the general prosperity.
by the rtio.t conciliating and beneficent measures.
He repeated his cordial good wishes towards the
Catholics, and trusted, that they would perceive the
propriety of deferring their Petitions.
" Lord SURLMSOCIT and Mr. SCULLY replied,
