if he still his friends Weald tint haVe ati eopbfiti' hity
of discussing the principle of the measure.. The
Bill had been already put off several times, and.it
was desirable to proceed with it withotit further
delay.
Mr. PERCEVAL thought the measure one of the
most important that could be brought under the con-
sideration of Parliament, and wished to take the ear
-
Lest, as well as, every opportunity of taking the sense
of the House upon it. He submitted to the Noble
Lord, therefore, whether with a view to the conve-
, nience of the House, he would bring on the discus-
sion at this late hour.
The SPEAKgs acqUainted the House,, that there
were Petitions on the Table, and, Counsel to be
heard, against the Bill.
Lord TEMPLE had no difficulty in conceding to,
the delay, but wished to be understood as yielding
to the convenience of the House, not to the menace
of the arguments, or opposition; of the Learned Gen-
tleman.
Mr. Rosa saw no occasion for the warmth of the
Noble Lord, from any-thing that had fallen from
his Learned Friend. The Bill was -the most im-
portant that could be under the consideration of the
House, being-neither more nor less than a Bill to
suspend permanently the Navigation Laws.
Lord DE BLAQUIEim thought the Noble Lord's

warmth a wanton and unnecessary waste of tem-
_ _ _ _ _ _

per ; and demanded, for himself and hiA friends an
opportunity of discussing the merits,of. the Bill in

every stage,

Lord H. PETTY said a few words in justification
of his Noble Friend; and -Mr. PERCEVAL declared
that ,he had not considered the observatiop of the
Noble Lord as personally uncivil to him.
Mr. FOX, after the ostentatious manner in which
the importance of this Measure had been stated,
felt it necessary to say a few words in order to ex-
pplain its import. It was a Bill to suspend tetnpora-
ly, not permanently, the Navigation Laws; and
this was not the first timethat such a measure had
been enacted. The pill of 1783 went much farther
than the present measure: But if it was the wish of
Gentlemen, be should have no ojedioe, to limit its
operation to the present Win', and if even that would
ot satisfy those persons who suppoied their interests
would be affeeted by the measure, and that they
should be better pleased to have it restriaed to a
certain period, or during the War, he sliould not
stand in the way of any such arrangement for their
iatisfaclion. •

Mr.'RosE did -not think that concession would
prove satisfactory to the, Petitioners against the Bill.
Sir C. PRICE thanked' the Right Hon. Secretary
for his candour, and proposed that the Second read.
ing of the Bill should be put 'off till Tuesday.
Lord TEMPLE assented; and after a few words
,from Dr. LAWRENCE, the second reading was put off
to Tuesday next.

Mr. ALEXANDER brought up the Report' of the
Committee relative to the Postage of Letters to and
from Gibraltar.—The Resolution was agreed to, and
a Bill ordered accordingly.
Mr. ALEXANDER obtained leave td bring in a Bill
for confirming the agreement between the Com-
missioners of the Treasury and the Duke of Grafton.
The House went into a Cot inittee on the Excise-
Office Regulation Bill.--The Report was afterwards
brought up, and ordered to_ be taken into farther
consideration'on Wednesday next.
The Customs' Fees Bill passed through a Corn-
mittee—to be reported on Monday.
The Additional Assessed Taxes' Bill was read a
second the, and ordered to be committed on Mon=
day._
_ _

Mr. HUSKISSON gave notice, that he should on
Monday move that it be an instruaion to the Com-
mittee on the Bill, that they have' power to divide
the part for imposing an Additional Assessed Tax
From that which was to 'afford relief to persons hav-
ing families.—Adjourned to Monday.

SOLE S 4 QUIS DIZSRZ FALSUM. AUDIAT ?

LONDON,
SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1806.

Wa haVe this 'day made some Extracts from the
Hamburgh Mail, the substance of which we yes-
terday laid before our Readers, and also from the
French and Dutch Papers which arrived last night,
the formtr of which are of the 6th, and the latter
of the 10th inst. The account given in the former
'French Papers of the failure of the attempt made by
the British Squadron- upon the Island of Capri, in
the Bay of Naples, appears to be unfounded. The
attack was completely successful
,; and it is stated,
but we believe without any truth, that as soon as
the Victors got possession of the Island, they hung
the Governor and six of the principal Inhabitants.

Tnz misunderstanding between His Illajesty's Mi-
nisters and the East.lndia Company, we are glad to
find islikely to. terminate in the most.amicable manner.
The Earl of LAUDERDALE, it seems, unwilling to press
the point, has signified his desire that he may no longer
be an obstacle to the restoration of harmony ; and
another person will, of course, be appOinted, who
may be acceptable to all parties, and whose abi-
lities will qualify him to do 'honour to the situation
and service to the Country.

A Debate took place yesterday' in the House of
Lords upon the Mutiny Bill containing the Clause
proposed by Mr. NV,INDIIA M. The Bill was agreed
to by a majority of 57. At the conclusion of the
Debate, Lord GRENVILI.E' gave notice that he should
on Friday next move the House.to concur with the
House of Commons in their Resolution respedling
the Abolition of the Slave Trade.
