PUBLIC HOUSE ',LICENSES,

Mr. Hosx.issorr moved, that this House should
to-morrow resolve itself into a Cernmittee; to con-
Sider of so much of the Aa of the forty-fourth of
George the Third, chap.; 98. as related to the duty
on licences.. fob' selling' ale, or other'exciseible
li-
quors, by retail.., He 'observed, that;a4 tfie law stood,
before publicans could sell liquors, they must take out
licences for every description of them. The ale•li-
'4.:ences were granted by the Justices of the Peace;
the licences for selling wine and spiritskby the Excise
fita meant to propose, that the whole of
the money for these licenses, as.well as
othersAlibuld be paid:to the Excise Office,. both for,
the purpose of relieving the Magistrates from this
part of their *duty, and for the purpose
the Collection of the revenue, which was very fre7
queotly iMpeded by the difficulty which the Clerks

fry no means his intention to interfere in : the
Aliptest degree with the authority of the Magistrate,
with respea to the licensing of houses ; lint merely
fo propose, that every publican who wished to sell ale,
phould go to a Magistrate,by wham 'hp Might' he fist-
tii'slied with a certificate illfit rad ofa licence,whiehetr-
tificate, on being presented to the Colleaor of the Ex-
cise, would entitle the publican to receive a licence
on paying the proper duty. • ' •

L4ll# REPOIC!'.

COURT Of KING's BENCH, May s.
InaTI6TAI4 Wane-TS.
Mr. RoADge moved for a habeas Corpus to bring
op a Prussian Sailor,, who had just arrived in .this
country, after being impressed from a Prussian vessel
g Monte Video, in (Ade( to his being discharged.
Mr. Justice La BLANC asked, whether the Learn-
rd Counsel was aware of any declaration of hostility
havitl, been made by the British Government against
his Prussian Majesty ?
Mr. READEK replied, • that he was aware of no
such declaration.
Lard ELLENIIOIIOVGH....." if that is the case, the
habeas Corpus may go ; but, on the contrary.. if
he Is an alien enemy, he must be considered as
prisoner of war."
TYTHE tIRASS. I
Mr. GAattow moved to set aside a nonsilit in the
ease of. Newman v. Morgan, tried at the Essex As•
sizes bet Ore Mr. Justice Heath. It was an anion
against a ReCtor, for not removing his tythe grass
after the Same had been set out; and the question
was, whether the farmer was bound to make it into
hay before he set it out, or whether the Rs or aid.
his people were bound to do it ? It was consideredlat
the trial, that the fernier should have made it, .or, •
to use the provincial term, should have teddedlti
before the Betlor was called upon to take it away.
This• he, had opt done, and, of course, a non Suit.
was dire6led.
~ Mr.
.GAttnow . now contended that
there ,w as no custom to warrant that conclusion, and
aS.the question resolved itself into the'common law
method of tything grass, he conceived the Plaintiff
haJ done all he was' bound to do, and that the tyth-
ing man should have carried it away. —Rule to shoe
cause granted.

Bill to 'enable his Majesty's Post-master General in-
Ireland to purchise certain Premises, for the-purpose,
of enlarging the General Post Office in the,ciqt of
Dublin.
Mr. PoNsoNay asiced on what foundation (Ma
motion was made, He,had never heard any corn 7
plaints of want of room in the Dublin Post Office,
and he could not but consider the proposed expence
as a very wanton one.
Sir A. WELLESLEY replied, that lie:Would very
readily lay on the table of the -HopSe the' etterk
Abe had received from the late and present Post-master
General, stating the inadequacy of the present build-
. ing to its objea. He appealed on this subjea to au
Hen. Gentleman on the other side,.
Mr. PARNELL ,had certainly understood' that some
improvement was necessary in the sorting of letters
at the Dublin Post Office ;, bqt be was not aware of
the ground of the present motion.
Sir A. WELLESI,EY added, that 'the enlargement
of the building was for the purpose of giving greater

GENERAL ORDER.

-At a General Court Martial held. at Winchester,
on the :18111 of July, 1808; and`continued, by ad-
journments, to the 20th of the same month,-Ensign
HENRY BALL, of the Somerset Militia, was
_arraign-
ed on the following Charge, viz. •
Behaving in a scandalous and infamous manner, such as is
Unbecoming the charaeter Of an Officer and a Gentleman, i►l
having sold to one Kir:hard Davis, of Wilmington, in the
county of Sussex, on or about the 14th of january, 1808,
:several casks of contraband spirits, which said casks had
been seized by the said Ensign Penry Ball, and afterwards at
Cncitmere, on the said 14th of January, fBOB, taken into the
custody-of Thomas Allwork, and other9flicers of the Cus:
toms, at the port of Newhaven, in the County of Sussex: • -

Upon which the Court came to the decision—the
Court having taken into consideration the evidence
brought forward in support of the charge preferred
against the Prisoner, Ensign HENRY BALLt of the
Sonierset Regiment of ;I,lilitia, as also what he
had offered in his defence, is of opinion, that En-
sign H. BALL iS Not Guilty of the crime preferred
against him, and it does, therefore, honourably ac-
quit him of the same.

His Majesty having been pleased to approve and
confirm the sentence of the Court, therefore His
Royal -Llighness the Commander in Chief dire44s
that the foregoing charge, together with the decision
of the Court, shall be inserted in the Orderly, Books
of every Corps.

Sir A. WELLESLEY, adrer ing to the letter which
it was supposed he had Wr;tten to the Bishop Of
Oporto, on the '2 4 th of August, bbserved, that on
examining papers he had fouud copies of two
letters wrridt he had written to the Bishop, but nei-
ther of them was that ascribed so him.. Whether
he had or had not written this List, he could not
pretend so say ; from certain peculiarities in the
Ntyle, he rather thought it was not, written by;
but he had no hesitation in saying, that he adopted
as his Own all the sentiments whi..it it contained, •
Sir Firtay BULIRARD read to the Court, a short
statement 'of the ni,itires by 't bleb he- had beep in=
iluenced in his conduct in Portugal. As far as Irons
the IoA- lone in .which be uttered them, we could
coded the tenor of his observations, -it.was as fol-
lows :—That his reasons for not ailowing Sir A.
Wellesley to pursue the adwintai.,es which had been.
gained on the list, were his belief' thar the whole
force of the enemy bad not been engaged in that ac-
-tion; a:A that he did. not understand Unit in any
event it would be • raL":tic:able to cut oil ,the- retreat
of any large body. The extensive lines occupied by
the Britkh 4.lrtny, were not favourable to its ad-
vance. The centre had been warmly engaged for
an hour and a half., The enemy possessed,a very
large and superior torte of cavalry, which; in any
ulterior movement, might have been brought into
action with treat effect. When Sir Arthur Wel-
lesley proposed to him to al.ow site troops to ad-
vance, he was -aware that, by his deterMivation, tie

tiftmliabited together comfortably; and lid always;
considered them as husband and wife.
. -There wag no, evfence for the Defendant ; but
• Mr. PARKE stated -for him; that this was only a
scene in a brothel between .the Defendant and this
Woman, perhaps ; but that was not proved : and
very probably he had been there with others. But
.however immoral a man the Defendant might be,
and he was not defending his morality, yet this case
was not made out against him by legal evidence.'
'Lord ELLENBOROUGH observed, that such an
aEtion a, this, for Criminal Conversation, he had ,
never before witnessed in a Court of Justice. -.ln
every a&ion of this sort, it had been proved how the
patties had lived together, and according as they had
so lived, the damages, in many cases, very much de-
pended. Here nothing of that sort appeared. In
the first place, although -he did not mean to deny
that the Plaintiff was married to this wonian, yet
that was lett doubtful upon the evidence.. It did
not follow that the•woman now called the Plaintiffs
wife, was the woman he =tried five years ago. She
might •be dead, and the person now called his wife
might not be .so. As to the confession of the De-
fendant, it was ektreniely, to be suspelled by the
Jury. The words were—" I have been conneaect
with Lonhttist's wif.!." There was no period men-
tioned fur that connection, and it might. have been
befo-re her marriage with the Plaintiff.. The Wit-
ness went away imthediately after the words were
uttered ; had he-staid, it Was possible that the De-
fendant tn ght have explained their meaning diffe-
rently fro.n the-interpretation put upon them by the
witness, and therefore this species of confession
ouiht to be laid out of the case altogether. As to
the adultery, that was but- obscure upon the evi-
dence: But supposing the Jury to be satisfied with
the evidence, and that the adultery was proved, the
question would be, what damage they. would give,
of that they were the judges.—Verdict for the
Defendant.

DISTURBANCE AT OSWEGO.

MANLIUS (ONONDOGA), AUG. 2.—We hear f?nm
Oswego, that on Thursday last application was made
to Mr. BURT, Custom-house Officer at that place, to
obtain a clearance for two boats for Saeket's harbour,
which was reflised. The owners of the boats as-
sured Mr. B. that they should depart the first fair
wind, and advised him to conduit. accordingly. In
the course of the following night, the weather. per-
mitting, they made sail. Muskets were discharged
at the boats, and the fire returned. No damage,
however, was sustained. When day-light appear-
ed a boat was dispatched with eighteen or nineteen
armed men, to bring in these piratical vagrants ; but
when overtaken, they discovered such a disposition
to defend themselves (eight in number), that it was
judged prudent, to let them proceed, and thus pre-
vent the effusion of blood.

On' Sandny evening the Hon. DAi. BRADLEY
received a letter, express from ,Mr. BURT, solicit-
ing the aid of 50
to enforce the embargo
law, stating, that unless the
,required assistance
could be had within four days, he should be Ob-
liged to quit his station, as he, had been threaten-
ed, &C.

HOUSE OF REPRIISENTATIVES, Nov. to.

EMBARGO.
•
Immediately on the meeting of the House-
114r. CHITTENDEN said,he rose with considerable
diffidence to offer to the 'House a Resolution on the
subject of the Embargo.' Having witnessed the feel-
!ilgs heretofore excited by a similar proposition at the
elst Session, he said he would assure Gentlemen
thafhe had no object in view but to bring the sub-
..
_led before the House, and excite a fliir and liberal
.discussion. He had hoped that the situation of our
affairs would ere this have authorized the removal
- - of the Embargo. Disappointed in this, he felt it a
duty which he owed to his constituents and to the
nation, to endeavour to elicit an expression of the
•• opinion of the House, to prevent ruinous specula-
tions, and to relieve the nation from:suspense.—
The measure had now been in operation ten or
eleven months, and he had not perceived the
good effeds resulting from it. The importance
of this subject, its interesting nature to his con-
stituents, who in addition to the coannon sufferings,
had the extreme mortification of being represented
2s In a state of insurrection, must be an apolegy for
fits coming forward at this early period on the sub-
iet.i.of the EMbargo. He then offered the tollowtits -•
ResolUtion
• , Resolved, That the A& passed at the last Ses-
s:on of Congress, -entitled " An Ad laying an Em-
bargot on all Ships and Vessels in the ports and bar-
nnts of the United States, and the several Ads
. -.nPPlernentary and additional thereto," ought to be
imMediately repealvd."
• On the question whether the House will agree to
consider the Resolution, it was decided by Yeas and
-I\raYs--Yeas 83—Nays 9.
It was `then agreed to refer the Resolution to a
enounmittee of the whole.
On the question for what -day it should be the
'order, Mr. CHITTENDEN moved to-morrow.
A Debate of considerable length took place upon
this Motion, in the course of which Mr. EPPES
proposed the fellowing Resolutions, as an amend-
ment to Mr. CHITTENDEN'S Motion.
I.c
Resolved, That from and after the
day of
next, all intercourse between the
United States and Great Britein, its Islands and De-
pendencies, 'ought to cease and determine.
of" Resolved, That from and after the day
States
next, all, intercourse between the United
•
and France, its Islands and apendencies,
ought to cease and determine.
la: Resolved, That provision ought to be made by
for arming and equipping for intmediate,service
already thousand militia, in addition to the force
authorized by law."
The Speaker then informed Mr. Ems that these
could nut be received .witile another question was
Pending; and Mr. ErgES withdrew them for the
present.
The Resolution was then made the Order of the
4-lay for Monday next.

The Plaintiff sought to recover from the Defend-
ant the sum of 361. for board nod lodging, for the
Defendant's wife, at the rate dens. a week: The ad-
fence was, that the Defendant, who is a Jew mer-
chant residing in HoundSditch, and far advanced in

he had been long married, agreeably to the Jewish.
ritnal,and that:llk:younger latly,whom he had married

FIFTH REPORT OF MILITARY INQUIRY.

Mr. Rost, ,pursuant to his notice, begged to call
the attention of the House to that part of. the Fifth,
Report of the ComthisSioners of Military loquiry
which seemed to reflect upon the 'conduct of the
Beard of Treasury,, from the year 170 to I'm, as if
that Board had been, as insinuated inlhe. Report, ita•
attentive to its duty in controlling the expendil
tore for the Hospital Dpartment. The ;light ,
Honourable Gentleman then shewed, that the Tree-
f sexy Board had tiot.been negligent of its duty on that
head, as mould appear from the paper for which ho
meant to move. He then- bore 'testimony to the
merits and integrity • of the Apothecary General,
who bad .supplied medicines to the army on more
reasonable terms than the Apothecaries' Company
did to the Navy, and concluded by moving, that
there be laid before the House-copies of all proceed-
ings of the Lords of the Treasury, between the Ist
of December 179 G, and the 31st of August 1799,
relative to payments made to the Apothecary Gene-
ral for medicines and surgical instruments supplied
to the army. - -
After a few observations from Mr. YORKE, in
corroboration of the testimony in favour of theApo-.
thecary General's Concluoi, and calling on the House
to.suspend all judgment, upon this Report 'till the
whole of the case stioald be before them ; the mo-
tion was agreed to.
SMALL PDX.
Mr. Futtta-, pursuant to notice, moved for and
Obfained leave to bring in a Bill to prevent' the.
spreading of the InfeCt ion of tho SMall Pox. Thelon.
Gentleman prefaced his motion by a concise state-'
Mont of the injuries done to mankind by t'bis pesti-
lential `malady, and-a brief exposition of the provi-
sions of his.Biii, which would, by penalties' oblige
persons who Might 6014 inoculate.lor the Snail Pox .
to provide institutions three miles 'front any town or
village, and al,io compel Persons who may be infed,-
ed with this .Disease to Withdraw- to such dktatice
from any tart ih which they may reside, the 'ex-
pence of removal to lle, in certain: cases, defrayed by .
the parishes. He proposed that the,. Bill, When
brought in, should be read a first and a second time,
then 1, inters, and afterwards lie over till next year. -
Mr. Rose did not. mean to. objett to the motion,-
hot took that opportunity to give eol thit., on
Thursday next he should mu% for leave to bring in
a :Bill to provide for the 'general , supply of the' pure
Vaccine Matter for Inoculation.
RoSe also gave notice of a Motion for Wed-
nesday, resPeoling the trade with America.
