WEDNESDAY, MARCH 31.

Mr. p. GRPSFELL rose to move for certain papers, relative to
the issue of Bank Notes by the Rank of England; and in doing so,
took a review of the profits Vk iiich are made by the Bank on its is-
snes, and what it paid to the public with respect to the Stamp Duty
nn •the Notes of the Bank of England. Previous to the restriction
nn caith payments, a composition was paid by the Bank, by way of
Stamp Piny on their Notes to the Revonne, and the sum paid by
them elt that time was 1'2,0001. iu 1797, one pound Notes were is-
sue, and it was then provided that each note should pay 2d —One
live hundred thousand pounds in one pound not( s was the n
issued, making a VI bill(' of abotit 12.000,01:01. awl they then
agreed to raise their composition to 2.1.0001. Since that time the
is-tie of paper had increased cow ',twisty, and was last year not less
than no 000,0( '01.; it might now be taken at 127,000,0001. yet the
composition paid by them had never exceeded 52,000. Thus, in
this article of composition, as in every other ease, a palpable advan-
tage had been given to the Batik over the public. To remedy this
evil was the object of the present trotion.—Some opposition was
shewn to the motion by Mr. Mellish and others, but it was in the
cud agreed to.
Mr. 611 ENE r LT, then moved that the House should, on Wednesday
next, resolve it-elf into a Committee to et:(inile into the sum paid by
the Bank, in consideration of their being exempted from all Stamp
Dot ies.— Mr. Van•ittart cow.jarred the motion as being too inrpor-
tint to be brought on in this sudden way, and the motion being put,
was negatived by 63 against 1:3.
The Report of the Committee of Supply was brought up. The
Eesoltrtinit for granting a slim of .'5,000,0001. as subsidy to the Em-
perors of Austria and Russia, and the King of Prusbia, was agreed
to.

Lord ALTTIORPE rose to bring forward a motion on the subject
of the expenditure of the Prince Regent's establishment. The No-
ble Loid apologised for taking up the subject on account of Ilk in-
-anfEcieocy ; the case, however, lay in a narrow compass ; it related
• to the expenditure of a sum of 100,0vOl. granted to his Royal High-
ress, as an outfit, takii e upon himself the office of Regent of these
realms. An Aet of piffilament had passed for securing, this sum,
vrbieh Wn% to he Appiird to that particular purpose, He thought,
therefore, that it could not he leg:dlr applied to any other object;
yet, by the paper MI the table, it appeared that this sum had been
paid into the trouts of the Commissmin rs for liquidating his Royal
Highness's debts. TiiiS was a direct violation of the privileges et'
Parliament. He then moved for a Committee to enquire into the
application of the sum of iOO,OOOl. alluded to in his speech.

The following ate a few passageb of the conversation which
Lord Lowther and Mr. Lyttleton had with Buonaparte when
he was tiaushipped from the Bc/lerophon to the Northam
L. rland

lloonaparte, whilst remonstrating against his detention, said—
o• You do not know my character. You ought to have placed con&
deuce in inv word of honour."
Ooe of the Gentlemen said—" Shall 1 speak the plain truth to
yule

I must then tell you, that since your invasion of Spain,
nu Ellelishman could put trust even in your must solenm. engage-
ments."
" I was called to Spain by Charles IV. to assist him against
his soil," . .

13. " 1 bad a urand political system. It was necessary to esta-
blish a connterpoise to your enormous I►ower on the sea; and, be-
aide•, that was only what had been done by the Bourbons," or words
to that effect.
66 It must be confessed howe‘er. General, that under your
sceptre France was much mole to be feared than during the latter
years of Louis "YCIV.'s reign. She was also sgraudised," &c.

AUG. 27.

B. " England on her part bad become more powerful." Here he
referred to our colonies, and particularly to our acquisitions iu
-- " Many well informed men are of opinion that England
looses more than she gains by the possession of that overgrown and
remote empire."
B. " I wished to revive Spain ; to do much of that which the
Cortes afterwards attempted to do."
He was then recalled to the main point, and reminded of the
character of the transaction by which he obtained possessi.:n of the
Spanish Crown, to which lie made no answer, but took a new line of
argument on the subject ot his detention, and, after lt discus.
sion, concluded by sa)ing--" Well, I have been deceived in relying
upon your generosity. Replace me in the position front which you
took mr." Or words to that effect.
Speaking of his invasion of Fr...xe, he said with great vehemence
—" [ was then a Sovereign—l had a tight to make war. The King
of France had nut kept his promises."
He afterwards said exultingly, and hitching and shaking his bead
I made war on the King of France with 600 mess."
He said, that in confining hint as we did, we were " acting like a
little aristocratic power, and not like -a great tree people."
Of Mr. Fox he said, lie knew him, and had seen bins at the Thull-
leries—" He had not yonr prejudices."
" Mr. Fox, General, was a zealous patriot with regard to his
own comitiy, and besides a citizen of the world."
B. "'He sincerely wished for peace, and I wished for it also. His
death prevented the conclusion of peace. The others. were vat
sincere."
At one time he obserrved-4' I do not say that I have not for

Orficer, who resides, at Camberwell, but whose 'name from remises of
humanity we tortieor to mention, applied to the sitting Magistrate for
the asiltance of an officer, under the following circumstances : The
complainant is the parent of one child, a daughter about seventeen,
%t hose perverseness of disposition has for some time past occasioned
her mother the greatest unhappiness—though treated with the utmost
touierties., she about ten days since withdrew herself secretly from
her mother's protection, and notwithstanding the strictest search was
made after her, Nile remained undiscovered for a week, at the expire-
tim, of which time her mother received information from a friend
that her daughter wss at a common brothel in St. George's Fields ; she
went there insniedintely and discovered that her information was cor-
rcct,wwwith some difficulty she obtained admission to her, hut the sight
4f her-child in such a situation was too much for her feelitigs to sap-
r, and on entering the room where she was the unhappy mother fell
do* it in a fit The wretched daughter took advantage of the conk,•
s. t: occasioned by this circuinst slice again to escape, and her miserable
t.-nrent had once more discovered her at one of those receptacles of
vice in Dover street. Previous to her going there, however, she now
an!:rd to the Magistrate fur the aid of an officer, by whose assistance
sf e hoped to be able to prevent her daughter's again escaping.—The
uortily Magistrate apprehending that a breach of the peace night he
committed, immediately complied with the unhappy another's request; the
huse was visited, the profligate daughter discovered, and though against
her rwm inclination, she was once more lodged under her mother's roof.

POLITICAL DISQUISITION.

TOLTCHE'S PLOT AGAINST LOUIS XVIII.

Two documents of the highest importance, if they are
authentic, have this week been produced to the world,
like baleful meteors portending devastation and death.
The first purports to be Fouche's Report to the King on
the situation of France and the relations with the foreign
nrmies: the second, the answer of the French Ministers
to the official note of the Allied Sovereigns respecting the
dispersion of their armies through most of the departments
of France. Strong doubts have been expressed of their
authenticity, on account of their having been transmitted
to this country through a private channel, without
being published in the King's Official Gazette. Some of
our papers have even declared themselves authorised to
state that those documents were totally unknown to Go-
vernment, and that there were the best reasons to believe
they were fabrications. It is very possible, however, that
they should be unknown to our government, to whitim they
were not addressed, as none of the complaints urged
against the Allies applied to the English, who are even
specifically excepted. It is also likely that state papers
of this mature would not be given to the public until every
means of preventing a final rupture had been found ineffi-
cient, for their publication by authority would be tanta-
mount to a declaration of war. The reasons adduced to in-
validate their authenticity, will not, therefore, be decisive,
unless the documents themselves contain, either in point
of style or of sentiment, internal proofs of fabrication.
The result of this last ordeal, with all those who have read
them attentively, must be a strengthened conviction that
they arc not suppositious ; for, placed by the side of all the
declamatory productions of revolutionary power, they
display a kindred violence) equal insincerity, and pro-
found cunning.
If after having•considerecl their style aud general tenor,
we pass to an examination of their tendency and seek
what secret' springs they are likely to set in motion, and
what effect to produce, we shall see .additional reasons for
thinking that they have been attributed to their right au-
thors. Hypocrisy will be found to form their chief r.
racteristic. Under the mottle of public spirit and

Thursday,/ Ann Surgey mid Samuel Hart were for the second
time brought up to this Office, charged with robbing Mr. Askey, of
Grantham, Lincolnshire, of nearly '.;0001. in guineas and bank notes.
The grounds of charge against Ann Surgey were that she lived in
Mr. Askey's house, and having suddenly left home, suspicion arose,
the property was boat, and the prisoner traced to au apartment in
Charles•erirt,• St. blartin's.dane, where Hart, the guard of the
coach by which she came, resided. In her defence, she denied the
rubbery in the most positive terms, and said she was merely induced
to quit Grantham in eonsepience of the violent lore that bad been
made to her by the prosecutor, whose affections she did not choose
to cultivate.' NOne of thepiOpetty iiiikeivered, and the parties are
%remanded till a future day.
SAlLost's Fitoucs.—Yesterday Sa,e IA Perry, charged with steal-
ing two (1. and five 11. notes from a mate of the Surrey East In-
dianian, was brought up for a second examii.ation. The prisoner,
it appeared, was taken to an improper house by the complainant,
who had just arrived from a voyage, and who took her to a house
of ill fame in Whitechapel. where.she contrived to pick his pocket.
There tieing no positive proof of her delinquency, however, as the
complainant acknowledged himself to be drunk, the prisoner was dig-
charged.

MURDER.

On Wednesday, the body of D. Jerome (a black man) was found
murdered in a sluice, near Snatlisea Castle. The deceased, with
Antonio Pique, Joseph Pique, and Philip Pique, all blacks, were
lately discharged from his Majesty's ship Pique. They had spent
their money whilst on shore. The three Piques then determined to
murder Jerome, and rob bins of Isis cloaths. They accordingly per.
suaded him to take a walk, and having reached the above sp ,t.
Joseph held his arms, whilst Antonio made a thrust at his throat
with a clasp knife ; the. poor fellow instantly falling-do.‘ ts, Antonio
severed bisbead from Isis body ; then Philip stripped off his (loath.,
and they went and sold them to a slopman on the Hard, Portsea, for
which they obtained 14s. As they had all been seen 'walking toa-
Sher, snspicion soon rested upon them, and Joseph was apprehended
that night. On the same night Antonio was discovered a•lei p
in the Market House, wrapped up in a boat cloak, bleb mid
stolen. The officers then went to the cell of Joseph, and told him
that Antonio was taken, and had laid the ebarge nnordel
Jerome against bins ; upon which Joseph .confessed the !wino oils
transaction, as we have related it, and Philip was rniri after apple'
liended.-4 inquest hag been taken on the liodv, and after two. d rs
examination, a terdiet was returned of Wilful Murder against
Antonio, and against Philip and Joseph, for aiding and abetting in
the same; and they have been committed to Winchester for trial at
the Aisize..

Louis XVIII. their teal end is to work his ruin. The
exaggerated picture which they give of the sufferings of
France, and of the pretended misconduct of the Allies is
not only calculated to rouse the people to resistance,
but to direct the first explosion of their rage against their
own monarch, who is represented 'as becoming, through
impotency, an accomplice of all the calamities inflicted on
his subjects. It may be said that his intention is defeated
by the want of publicity of the Report : but this is only
another specimen of Fouche's experience and ingenuity.
He well knows, that in France secrecy doubles the
strength of every libel, and that whatever is mysteriously
circulated, is read with the most credulous avidity, whilst
authorised publications-excite but little curiosity at their
birth, and speedily sink into insignificance. Ile there-
fore silences the press, in order to open a boundless range
to that underhand influence which has already effected,
and probably will again accomplish the ruin of thrones.
A proof that this is not a vaia assertion, is the case and
rapidity with which this' .baneful document is handed
round all the Parisian and provincial circles. Were it
not Fouche's production, and did he disapprove of its
contents, the vigilance of his police would soon re-
press its circulation. The next object after ren-
dering the King odious to his people, is to in-
veigle him far from his real protectors, the Allies,
into the hands of his bitterest enemies. " In this excess
of evils," says this artful minister, " what line of conduct
remains to your Majesty, but that of removal Q The
public functionaries, in the same manner, will quit their
places, and the armies of the Sovereigns will then be at
issue with individuals freed from all social ties." Here let
us inquire of Mr. Fouche to what place he proposes the
king should remove ? Does he mean that he should once
more drop the reins of the state, and' seek for peace and
security on onr shores ? No ; for he would then no
longer'be within the Patriot's power. Neither is it possi-
ble, lithe public functionaries (ides:, Fouclie and his fac-
tion) arc to follow him, that he should take up his aboef,
in a foreign laud, for then such an attendance would prove
useless. It is evident, therefore, that the King is advisee!

gone' forth, is - made a subject of congratulation to his
Majesty. The effect of such a measure would be this:
the divisions which palsy the strength of Ftabce against
her invaders, would be healed. For a -time, the army.and
the Republicans would March under" the white standard,
and proclaim that they only intend to support the interests.
and dignity of the House of Bourbon._ The Vendcaus and
all the other friends of the King, who- see with a jealous
eye the prolonged sojourn of the Allies, and the dispersion
of their troops through the departments of France, would
gladly swell the ranks of an army headed by its sovereign,
without considering that he was only the slate of his
ministers. This collection of force, which no other means
could form, once put into motion, insurrections would
blaze on every side, and the European monarchs would
find themselves assailed in front by a mighty army
and on every other point by an exasperated and ardent
population, conceiving itself this time engaged in the
rightful cause of its King and Country. Should
this combination prove successful, and France, like
Spain, prove the grave of her invaders, then the Royal-
ists would perceive too late that they had fought
the battles of Revolution and Jacodiusm, and not those of
patriotism and legitimacy. The King, no longer useful
to the Republicans, would either be discarded with dis-
grace, or sacrificed to the completion of their plans, and
Europe would once more pant and bleed under the rods
of Revolutionary Tyrants.

100,000 lbs. of meat, and 10,000 litres of brandy. If to all

PROVINCIALS.

Last week a melancholy accident happened at Nesham and Co's
colliery, at Newbbttle, in the county of Durham. The proprietors
had provided a most pow, rful, locomotive steam engine, for the
purpose of drawing ten or twelve coal waggons to the saith at one
time, and Monday being the (lay it was to be put in motion, a great
number of people belonging to the colliery had collected to see- it;
but unfortunately just as it was going oft; the boiler of the machine.
being heated too highly, burst. The engine.man was dashed to
pieces, and his mangled remains thrown above 100 yards; a little
boy was also thrown to a great distance by the force of the steam,
and upwards of 50 men, women and children were dreadflilly scat.
ded, five of whom are since dead, and several remain with little hope
of recovery. It will be recollected that at the fatal blast which
recently took place at this colliery, the first who arrived at the
bank, holding by the rope, was a little boy, about six or seven years
of age. This poor little fellow was among those scalded, and died
on Tuesday morning.

A few days ago at Up-Holland, Lancashire, as some haymakers
%vete anmsing themselves after their labour in the gambOls of the
field, a fine young woman imprudently attempted to leap a small
stone wall at the end of the field by means of a fork, between the
fangs of which she placed one of her hands, and making a spring,
her foot slipped, when, a*ful to mime, the fangs penetkated her
heart, and in the agony of death she plucked them out, exclaiming,
Oh God," and expired immediately.

one point excepted. What a contrast between what is ae.'
walk• passing and their solemn promises! This is the age
of on and justice, and the public opinion never had
more power Who ran explain such excessive evils after
such pri,rnises of moderation ? The present war was under-
taken to set re the cause of. legitimacy. Is this manner of
carrying .on war calculated to render the authority. of your
Majest% morelvicred ?

‘. Tl., y desirous of punishing the individual who
sported ~:tth the calamities of nations, and they inflict on
France the sa;:)e violence, the same inhumanity. It was
thought by all Europe that the entry of the Sovereigns into
i'aris woad !.ut an end to the war. What will be thought
nn learnik,ll that it was then only that the excesses of op-
pression commenced, without combats, and without resist-
ance? The evils which we are reproached with having in-
inctrd on others were never so great ; they never took place
when the use of arms had no object; and thGugh it were
true, that we had given the first examples of such an abuse
force,of ought they to imitate what they impute to us as a
crime ?

It is known in the North, it is known in Prussia, that
our want of moderation gave birth to energy and public
spirit in our enemies. There will no longer be any end to
the evils of humanity, if mutual vengeance: are to become
the rule of war, for nations never die.
" Your Majesty will deign to permit me to insist on one'
final consideration—So long as France shall have any thing•
to preserve, by the hope of maintaining its integrity as a,
nation, no sacrifice will be impossible, and all the plans of
an equitable policy may be executed; but the day in which
the inhabitants shall have lost every thing, in which their
ruin shall be consummated, a new order of things—a new
series of events will be seen to arise, because there will no
longer be either Government or obedience. A blindfury,
will take the place of resignation. They will only seek
counsel in despair; on both, sides there will be ravage; pil-
lage will make war on pillage. Every step of tht foreign
soldiers will be marked with blood. France wilt be less
ashamed of destroying herself than in allowing herself to be
destroyed by others ; the moment approaches—already the
national spirit takes this frightful direction ; the most oppo-
site parties are, blending into one; La Vendee itself unites
its colours with thoe of the army. In this excess of evils
what line of conduct remains to'your Majesty but that of
removal ? The public functionaries in the same manner will
quit their. places, and the armies of the Sovereigns will then
be at issue with individuals feed from-all social ties.

•• A nation of thirty millions of inhabitants may un-
doubtedly disappear from the face of the earth, but in this
war of man to man, the oppressed and their vanquishers
vrill lie together in more than one grave.

NAVAL COURTS MARTIAL.

On Monday week a Court Martial was held at Portsmouth, .on
Captain Stephen Popham, late acting Captain of the Montreal, in
the Lakes in Canada, for having. contrary to a verbal order of Com.
modors Sir James Lucas Yeo, attacked a lotilla of American boats in
a creek on that Lake, which were proceeding from Oswego to Sackett's
Harbour, with storetof every description, for the equipment of a
large ship that was building in the latter harbour. The Court deter-
mined that a verbal order had been given to Captain Popham not to go
into any creek, in his endeavour to intercept the expected boats with
stores, hut, that having unexpectedly found them in Sandy Creek,
and having been greatly reinforced, by taking under his orders a divi-
sion of armed boats, under Captain Spilsbury, and in a manner
Viliich could not have been contemplated by Sir J. 1.. Yeo, he was
tialy justified in making the attack which he did. under the consider-
ation of the infinite importance it was to the service that the boats
ishould not reach Sackett's Harbour, and, therefore, adjudged him to
Jte: cQulTTio.—The Court could not forbear stating their regret
that sir j . L. Yeo should have used sus 11 reproachful expressions in
Isis letter to the Admiralty, which stated Captain Popliam's capture ;
and also their high disapprobation of the severe imputation con-
tained in Capt. P's defence against his Commanding Officer, for
Laving offered himself ask witness in the support of the charges-which
It was his duty to do.
A Court Martial was held on Friday and Saturday, to inquire into
the circumstances attending the loss of the British squadron on Lake
Champlain, and to try Captain Pring, the next Senior Officer after
the death of Captain Downie, and the Officers under his command,
for the same. The prosecution closed on Saturday afternoon, and
Itlonday the several 0 ffi-ers would make their defenice. It appeared,
from the pror cedings, that two of the Officers Who •ought also to
Rave been ct,t upon their trial. did not appear ; viz. Lieut. Rayot,
wvho afterwards deserted tothc enemy, and haa since been struck ou
to the list of Lieu. ; and Lieut. Isl`Gct, whose residence is Hot
kuown.

beside her own, found twenty nations, ten sovereign
Princes, six Kings, and one Emperor ranged under her
banners, and glorying to march in her train. She con►-
passed the earth with her armies. With one hand she shock
the towers of Cadiz and the pillais of Hercules. With the
other lighted the blaze of Moscow. Mankind saw the
resistless strides of the Giant, and sunk appalled. Her
enemies fled before her as chaff before the wind.
She seemed to make the destinies of the world.—Where

now stands the towering Colossus ? It has vanished,
and 4Snly a few ruins lie scattered on the ground.
The eye, so long arrested by its bulk, as by a
mountain that covered-and crushed the face of Europe,
now wonders at its absence as it glances over the
wrecks. The conqueror of nations is conquered : the
enslaver of monarchs is chained. France has been. The
Kings who gave her their kingdom, and agreed to falll
her will, now " make. her desolate and naked." They
reward her, as she rewarded them, and double unto her
according to her works. She said in her heart, I sit a
Queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow ;
but the plagues are come upon her and all her vein glo-
ries are passed away. Dis►nembered of all her conquests,
a captive in her own capital, spoiled of her trophies and
monuments, spurned at, and bruised under foot, she no•.o
supplicates for mercy in the dust. Her misery and degrik-
dation are as deep as her height of power was unexam-
pled. It is probable, however, that the generosity of her
conquerors will spare her national existence. They have
replaced her legitimate sovereign on the throne ; and ty
disarming her of all power to injure
.the world, will en
deavour to raise her anew to respec!ability. But the
attempt we arc convinced, will ultimately. fail Tl,e
spirit of France is her greatest enemy. It is so hcs.•
tile to peace, so maddened with resentment and io
hot for revenge, that whenever the Allies shell have
retired, and a short breathing pause shall have re-
vived the blind confidence of humiliated" pride, the
French will either- force Louis XVIII to rush into
a new continental war ; er, if he resist the torrent,
he will be overthrown and a more subservient chief elected
to guide their hostility, and avenge what they call their
honour, by the devastation of Europe. Such an effort
however, made with reduced forces, and without ai etu-
