IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HottsE OF Loftus—M.o.y, MAY 8.

In a Committee of Privileges, evidence was re-
ceived in the claim of the Roos Peerage.

The Kills on the 'aisle were forwarded. Two
private Bills were received from the Commons.
The Appeal of the Duke of Queensberry r.
M.Murdoch, which stood for tomorrow, was
postponed till Friday next.
A dj,rurned to to•morrow.

HOUSE or COMMONS.
According to the Order of the Day, the House
were to have ballotted for a Committee to try the
merits of a Petition complaining of the Chippenham
.EleCtion—but the petitioning party having declined
to appear by his Counsel, against the LleCtion, no
balloting took place.
Mr. FOS I'ER moved, that the consideration of
ch.: Petition respefting the Linen ManufaCture of
Ireland he postponed till this day se'nnight ; which
was agreed to accordingly.

The Order of the Day being moved, for the
third reading of the Aylesbury Eledion Regulation
Bill ;
Mr. Counsellor RA TNE opposed the Bill he
stated that the case of Shoreham did not appear to
hiM to apply is a precedent in the present instance ;
and that there was a hardship, and appeared to him
an evident injustice, in punishing the innocent along
with the crrrupted and culpable Eledors of Ayles-
bury, which the provisions of the present Bill ap-
peared to him to du.
Mr DIC%ENSON, jun. said a few words in
support of the Bill.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL strongly op-
posed the Bill. He considered it as contrary to
every principle of jurisprudence to involve the in-
nocent with the guilty. The enlargement of the
number of EleEtors, though not amounting us a
ciiied di•franchisernent, yet he considered it as con-
siderably diminishing the privileges of the present
bleftars. The evidence of the corrupt pradices of
the Eli ors only amounted to about one eighth
part of the number of voters ; and it appeared to him
peculiarly hard that so considerable a majority of
th sse against whom no evidence was produced, or
eh •rge of bribery alleged, should be involved in
the same punishment with the culpable Eledors.
This must certainly be considered in the light of an
ex po,:fetta law, which was a measure not compati•
ble with our ideas of English equity. Upon these
groundehe trusted that such Gentlemen as had not
made up their minds on the bulled, would concur
with him in giving their decided negative to the Bill.
Lord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON argued in
Comm of the Bill, considering it as the only pradi-
cable means of correding the abuses which had pre-
vailed for a length of time In that borough. The
House then divided--Ayes, 73.—Noes, 29.—Ma-
jot ity, 44.
The Bill was then read a third time, and passed.
The English Loan Bill, and the Irish Loan Bill,
owe severally read a third time and passed.
The Report of the Customs Duty Bill was re.
ceived, and ordered to be read a third time to-

morrow
Mr. KINNAIRD gave notice. that he should
postpone his motion (respeCting the pay of subaltern
officers) from to-morrow, till to-morrow fortnight.
The Caledonian Canal Bill was read a second
time, and committed for to-morrow.
Mr. VANSITTART brought up the account of
arrears and balances due from public accoui.ants,
lion' the Mb January, 1806, to the sth January,
1804 .
Mr. WILBERFORCE said, he was sorry to
have been prevented front attending on a former
occasion, according to the notice whir's had
been given of a motion for a Bill to regulate the
bindirg of Parish Apprentices. He begged leave
now to move that leave be given to bring in a Bill
for the better regulation of parish apprentices.
Mr. BIRD said, that he had himself given notice
of a Bill of a similar tendency, but that he had no
ohjeßioa to withdraw it, provided the lion. Gent.
would consent that the Bill which he proposed to
bring in should be only read a first time this session,
that it be printed, and then submitted to the
consideration of the gentlemen attending at their
respedive quarter sessions. He hoped that the mea-
sure would not he carried any farther in the course
et the present session.
Mr. H. LASCELLES said a few words in favour
of the measure.
Mr. HOBIIOUSE wished to have heard a more
particular account from the Hon. Gent. (Mr. Wil-
berforce) of the law as it at present stood. and of
the n tessity which tnere appeared to be for Parlia-

Mr. WILBE.RFORCE then stated, that it was
at the express desire of forty or fifty respeCtable Ma-
gistrates in his county, and who had inown many
abuses respaaing Parish Apprentices, that he
brought forward his present Motion. It ap-
peared to them as it did to :.:m, that the law, as it
now stood, was insufbcient to remedy the praftical
evils which vivre complained of ; and it was found
that Justices of the Peace were no longer
able to afford that proteCtion and rthcf to Parish Ap-
prentices which were originally expeeted from them.
It was not now meant to introduce any new prin-
eiplesbut rather to give Oka to those principles
which were already admitted ; and with that view,
it was proposed to afford Justice; the means of as-
certaining that Parish Apprentices were properly
taken case of.

After a few words from Mr. 11. Last-elks and
Dr. Laurence, leave was given to bring in a Bill.
On tlie Oriher of the Day for the second tea-ling
thcllfisdcrueanour Prosecution Bill ;
Mr. C. DUNDAS moved, that the said Bill be
rererrul to a Bele& Committee above stairs ; which,
:diet a few words from Mr. Windham, was agreed
to, and a Committee appointed accordingly.
The Additioilal Wine Duty Rill, and the Suhal-
tern Militia Officers Bill, were severally read a third
time and pa.s.:J. Adjourned.

LONDON,
WIMNFSDAY, MAY A.

Yesterday about ten o'clock, Messrs. NV EL' pas,
Foser.ANque, MILLS, HOLLIS, TOPPIEG, and
IN'tEsca, were introduced to His MAILST% by the
Lotto Cu ANCEI LOR, at the Queen's House, and had
the honour to kiss His MAJESTY'S hand, upon their
recent promotions in the respeEliveCourts of Equity
and Law. His MAJETy shot tly after held a Privy
Council, which was attended by the Loan CH AN•
CELLOR, the Duke of PORTLAND, the Earls of
WESTMORELAND, CHATHAM, and ST. VINCENT,
Lords HAWKESPURY, and R)EITET, Vi count CAS•
TLERTAGH, Mr. ADEMNOTON, and Mr YoREE.
The CHIEF JUSTICE of the COMMON PLEAS at-
tended, and,we understand, was sworn in a Member
of the Privy Council, which did not break up until
half past three o'clock—Ma. F sulliNLE attended
as Clerk to the Council His M %.1 EST V after-
wards gave audiences to the Earls of COATI. *II
and ST. V;NC: ENT, the letter of whom, it was
reported, gave in his resignation to His M
MTV. The number of carriages and the crowd
of speCtators about the Queen's House was as
great as upon a court-day. The latter were at-
trailed in expeCtation of seeing the principal Nlem-
bers of the New Administration, who, according to
I report, were to have been introduced to His M%-
Jur v—but not even Mr. PITT was present. The
business, however, appears to have been nothing
more than the winding up of the departing Ministry,
a sort of farewell meetinf. The choice of their
successors is likely to prove a work of some time,
and of much more labour than was at fist sup-
posed. Mr. PITT has met with unexpected difficul-
ties in its formation, the Earls of SrEric El and Ca it-
LISLE, Lord Gi Et:ma and Mr.Wionnatra, having
positively refused to form any part ofan Administra-
tion, of which the qua non shall be the exclusion
of Mr. Fox. This strong support which the latter
has received from the hitherto staur-hest friends of
Mr. Pe r s, mar account fur the moderation and re-
save at present observed by his immediate party.

At present Mr. Fox considers himself excluded;
but he has reason to ;hialc that his infixence
is increased; and he rnnot foresee how soon
that influence may prevai' .1d carry him to
the full extent his wi 4. Mr. P'ry being
so far deserted by his old p.trty. the following are
said to be the materials of vet.;,ls he prooos;.s to
form a new Ministry; The ::uke of Poxrcrafro,
Earl CAMDEN, Lores MELVILLE, ELDEN, H• R-
ROW IT, HAW.:I.sRU s Y, and CAST LLLLL G:t ; Messrs.
CANNING, Huseissots, and STURGES Am.:Asir.—
Geosta Rost to .;:.e Treasurer of th?. Navy ; Lord
G. Levasore and CI! SR ES Logo to be joint

Paymasters of the Arm; If etch be the n w
.Id-
ministr.ttiot•., it will much J.:Appoint the public ex-
peetation. Such a medley of and ants is not the
sort of Administration which we were promised. It
is more like a capitulation on the part of Mr. PITT,
than a surrender of his adversary at discretion.

We received yesterday, by the Hamb'irgh Mail,
letters and papers to the ,2d instant. They confirm
the account given cireta,iror4 in this paper, of the
just and honourable conduit of the EleCtor of
Banes, respeCting the arrest of the Duke of Eir-
GIIIEN, and the other French emigrants within his
territory. Far from having direAly or indireftly
consented to that transaCtion, he has with becom-
ing spirit resented this insW.t, b}• a protest which has
been presented by his Ambassador at Paris. Another
memorial on this subjed has been presented to the
Emperor of GeIIMANY, on the eta ult. by the
Eledcral Minister to the Court of Vienna; and from
our privzte information, we are inclined to believe,
that similar remonstrances or complaints have al-
ready been made at St. Petersburgh, to the E.. peror
of Russ; A, as a guarantee of the indepen nee of
the German 1.-npire. Private letters frr.. Vienna
say, that a treaty of alliance between the twc Em-
perors has been agreed to, and that its signature
only awaits the answer of the King of Pausal*, to an
invi;atiun to accede to it. The Austrian as well AS the
Russian armies have been augmented, and are now
complete; and new fortresses are construAing on
the Anstrian frontiers of Italy. All thew tranuc-
tions„ though only defensive measurer nrinee
that the great Continental Powers, whde they
talk of peace, doubt its long continuance, eind
are therefore prudently prepared for war. By
the exilz of Hauawt rz to his estates in Stirs, Bo-
AAAAA E loses no enemy, and loyaltj basso friend
to regret. His successor 'd i-tiriot. Baron Hak•
is not or!' _ -nlight•ned, but a
more liberal statesman; less a:tithed to Fiance, and

less prejudi,:ed against England and Austria. The
situation of Italy is still the same. The French
have not yet entered the city of Naples ; but the
Queen of NAPLES, apprehensive of a visit, intends
going to Vienna, and an English ship of the
brie is in the road of Naples, ready to take en board
all British subjeds in that capital with their property.
In France the reign of terror continues. Secret
nightly executions have taken place, and it is nut
known either who are the viaims, or of what
crimes they have been accused. Passes are neces-
sary not only in travelling on the high roads, but
is walking the streets, anal in the public gardens.
Domiciliary visits and imprisonments are yet the
order of the day. Amidst all these terrors and
cruelties, BONAPARTL is marching with rapid but
well measured strides towards the Imperial dia-
dem, the constant desire of his outrageous ambition
ever since his usurpation of the Brae R moss" Throne.
The manner, in which he is to know the w:+/err of
the people upon the great Constitutional question of
a total change of government as well as of dynasty,
is the same, as when he was chosen in 1799 a First
Consul, and in 1 802, a First Consul for life. Books
are to be opened in every Commune of all the De-
partments, all the French citizens are to inscribe
their names for or against a change. In that en-
slaved and corrupted country, every one,who knows
that BORAPARTE commands 500,000 bayonets, and
disposes of a revenue of Eve hundred millions of
livres, may anticipate the issue : Besides, all
those who do not vote, from fear or principle,
are counted in favour of the question : it was
in this manner he collated his former majo-
rities. And what man in France has courage
enough to expose himself, and his family, and
friends, to imprisonment, exile, plunder, and per-
haps death, by an unavailing opposition ? Although
not proclaimed an Emperor by the soldiers in their
camp like CA LIGUL Ap he is equally indebted to
them and to their bayonets ; and it is to them, and
to the base corruption and cowardice of his Senators
and Counsellors, that BON AP ARTE will owe L;
imperial dignity ; yet these slaves, armed and di,
armed, do not amount to one million, or one-
thirtieth part of the French nation. How other
Sovereigns will regard this proposed fraternity
of an atrocious adventurer, we cannot pretend to
say ; but in better times, the attempt would
have united all lawful and hereditai y Princes
in this cortemon cause of birth, rank, honour, and
virtue Should they, however, submit to this hu-
miliation, the time cannot be distint, when Prus-

Grenadier and light infantry battalions were first I
adopted in EnglanJ, if we mistake not, at the ►ug-

many advantages to be given up, or opposed, at the
present crisis, however obnoxious or desagreable to
Militia Colonel,: who, averse as they are to dank
companies being detached, will. doubtless, with
pleasure submit to that, or any other sacrifice, cal-
culated to ensure the safety, or add to the security
of the kingdom, when menaced with a descent by a

WUIG CI,UR.
Yesterday there WAS a meeting of the Whig Chtb,
at the Crown and Anchor, in the Strand,•

Sc-. F.IX in the Citair.
The members appeared more than usually
anxions to chew their attachment to their great
leader, and the principles of the society. Upon Mr.
Yox's health being drank, he addressed the meet-
ing :n a speech of some length, in which he observ-
ed-that the only occurrence of any moment that
had tak,:ii place since the last meeting, was the
resignation of the Administration ; an event which
tart one scald suppose he could regret. An Admi-
nistrat;on civ,sen so contrary to the principles of
that CIA, alid so inferior in talents and property to
every Administration that had preceded it, ought
not to stand. Its downfall, therefore, could not be
beheld but with satisfy Lion. It was an Administra-
tion appointed solely by the influence of the Crown,
without any recommendation of property or talent,
and such as ought not to last. What Administra-
tion would be formed in.its place, he did not know ;
bat of this he WAS sure, that it would not be
destitute of property and talents. Although his
I.ealth was generally first drank in that Club,
4y ,:t his family had not given such proofs of patriot-
iqn as had been displayed by the H eases of Caven-
dish and Russell. No exertion, however, should be
v. truing, on his part, to
.provohie gratitude t and he
he should be able to continue to give the same
support to the constitution which he had hitherto
done. This speech was received with enthusiastic
aplause.
The Earl of Laymen Le said, he was so long
out of the habit of addressing a public assembly, he
should content himself with drinking the health of
the company without further observation.

Sir WILLIAM MILNER, Mr. WILLIAM SMITH,
and several other Gentlemen, spoke in approbation
of the principles of Mr. Fox. Mr. SMITH con-
cluded his speech with the following toast :
" May that Administration be short which does not comprise
these talents which had btu proteded oar Leertie; at kwor, and
ere lac eseljArti to en.nrre :Inspect abroad."
This toast was received and drank with eatlnt-
eiasm.

The Meeting was uncommonly numerous, and
had excited great expeßation; but the speeches were
abort. and did not afford all the information upon
the present state of our internal politics which it was
hoped they would disclose.

The followin; is a copy of the Prince of Corent's
Letter, conveying his thanks to the Emigrants, for
their public expression of their concern at the mur-
der of the Duke D'Emonirrs
Winstead Ilome, April 27, 1604.
" The excess of our pact, Sir, has not prevented my son
and me (rum feeling, as we ought, the generous interest which
all the faithful Endplate have taken in the great loss we have
recently sustained. W. teal has much our duty, as it is our
anxious wish, to make known to them our entire gratitude.
The nunittli of thsib worthy renew to wham our saanke
are due being too great to permit us to address °vendee.
to each in particular, we have requested the tfintillor of
the King, who is the. Mad of the lovasons, to express,
as perfectly at it is possible, to those Emigrants so worthy
of the cause they suppett, hew sensible we are of the
generous and distinguished Manner in which they have min-
je-cl their regret with ova, in the august and mournful c rm.
stony of yesterday•. We therefore beseech you, Sir, in
concert with to be the interpreter of our just and lively
gratitude, which will never be extinguished in our hearts but
with our breath, which will terming, at once our sufferings,
and our uieforturiate race

of the ceremony of yesterday ; and we beg you to rest ahured
of our gratitude, and of trio sentiments of perfect esteem arid
sincere frier.d..hip fur you, with which we have long been
penetrated.

PARIS, APRIL 24.
Letters from Constantinople of the 20th of March
say, that the Russian Ambassador, by the Sublime
Porte, Count Italinsky, has concluded, with some
Grecian and Armenian merchants, contra is for
the delivery of provisions to a Russian fleet, daily
expeeted from the Black Sea, in the Dardanelles,
where it intends to pass three weeks. The sum con-
tratied for amounts to one million of dollars. The
policy of ..he Turkish Government of admitting a
Russian fleet in its harbours, and permitting so many
armed ships to enter the Mediterranean, is very much
doubted by the French, Spanish, and Dutch Am-
bassadors, who on that account have had several
conferences with the Divan, where it is said, they
have severely remonstrated, though without effee..
The Pacha of Mostar, in the Turkish part of
Dalmatia, is in open rebellion. The Sultan has
tent 240 purses to the Pacha of Haujaloka to recruit
for in army, and to march against the rebellious
Paella.
The Sultan has sent Aleph Pacha t:pon a secret
mission, but with full powers, to Eppt. He has
already sailed with .1 numerous suite, on board a
small Ragusan vessel. It is supposed that he is
eharged toengage the Arnauts to return to their
duty to the Sublime Porte, in assuring them not
only of full pardon for the past, but by offering
double pay for future. (Journal de Paris.)
The Criminal Tribunal has condemned the tim-
ber merchant Le Page to the Rallies for six years.
He has been convk'fed of a fraudulent bankruptcy.
Of the 1800 bankrupts announced since the present
war broke out, it is supposed that 1750, at least,
are fraudulent ; it is therefore time that some ex-
ample is made which may convince other nations
that French merchants are not permitted to be
rogues with impunity. (Le Clef dcs Cabinets.)
The Emperor of Germany has, by a decree, or-
dered the Eledlor of Wirternberg to restore to
Count de Dukler, member of the equestrian order,
the mines of Mittelbron, situated in the territory of
Wirtemberg.
The special military commission at Mentz, in
the department of Mont Tonnere, has condemned
to death Schnitter, Witters, and Muller, suspeited
of having recruited for some foreign power. The
night before their execution, they found, however,
means to escape from prison, by the treachery of
the jailor's wife, a ho, after locking up her husband
in one of the dungeons, set these criminals at liber-
ty, and accompanied them in their flight. The
gens d'armes are in pursuit of them.
Letters from Dresden say, that the EleCtor of
Saxony has invited the King and Queen of Sweden
to pass some time in his capital; and that Their Ma-
jesties have accepted of the invitation.
A letter from Basle of the t tith complains great-
ly of the stagnation of all trade in Switzerlani,
since the present war—and since French custom-
house officers there, as well as in Italy and France,
impede their commercial communications, under
pretence of preventing the entrance of English pt
du/lions. A memorial has been presented by 500
of the principal Swiss merchants, to the Landam-
inn, who has communicated it to the French Mi-
nister, Vial—but he declared that the f irst Consul
was determined not to lessen the measures he has
adopted to ruin the trade of England.—(Journal dr

At Coblentz there have been condemned by the
special Military Commission, within three weeks, 36
smugglers of English goods. They have, with the
exception of four, who are women, and in a state of
pregnancy, been executed. Among those guillo-
tined were an old woman near sixty and a young girl
not much above fifteen, but who were regarded as
the most desparate of the whole gang.

seen near that city.
It is said, that General Marmont complains
greatly of the want of zeal in the Batavian Govern-
ment, and of obstinacy and want of pains/ion
among the Batavian citizens. Even among the
