and that it is manifestly unjust to allege against them, as a
proof of commercial Miiatiiikagernettt, pecuniary difficulties
arising out of this forcible diversion of their commercial
funds to natitinaljnirposes.'
That, with a view to. their financial difficulties, thus in-
curred on the Public account, the. Directors, in. the vear,
1803, apprehending the coo:kequeuces of the transfer of the
Indian territorial debt to England, in-dim:ea methods to
meet and provide for thole consecpwoces but that his
Maiesty's Ministers refused to forward those propositions to
India, and have not substituted, any other proceeding for the
same tad.

'.Cl►ere wes.not any intelligence from the North
this morning ; the next %try' val will, in ull rt'A'
bability, bring us some important news from
Prussia.

We nre happy to find that the active and en-
terprising 'Spanish General MINA still continues
successful in his operations against the French.—
Ile defeated them recently, near Pathpeluott, and
took a considerable number of prisoners.

The Party Gazette exults this day, because, at
the Wiltshire Meeting, hell on Wednesday last, in
the To Devizes, the .advocates for the
Catholic Claims exceeded in number those who
endeavour to preserve the Comtitution against
ail danger of it return of Popish a,,centlancy in this
country. One of the chief grounds of exult'ation
which the Party Gazette manifests on the occasion,
results front time circums'tanec of the meeting having
.been called by the opponents of the Catholic claims.
But the influence of party spirit may be expecten
to prevail in some places, aod there is little cause
for triumph when we compare this success with
the general anxiety which pervadez the empire at
large, to resist the pretensions of the PAPISTS, as
tending to the total overthrow of our establish-
ments in Church and State. Besides, in.a County
Aeeting, people may flock from all parts, itm
order to effect a particular purpose, while
many firm friends to the Constitution think
they eat depend on the general attachment of the
People to that C:onstitution, as well as ou the wis-
dom of the Legislature in resisting alt attempts to
undermine it, and therefore might remain quietly
at home. The Party print says, that such con-
duct as that which marked the Wiltshire Meet-
ing " will ever be the, case, wherever the no-
tice is sufficiently public and timely to allow
the sense of the great body of the people to
be fairly anti unequivocally taken on this im-
portant question." But is not the sense of the
people at large to be gathered from the petitions
against the removal of all restrictions upon
,Popery, which are pouring in from all quarters
It farther sajs, that " it is a libel on the Church
of England to say that they take up an in-
tolerent Cause to a man." Nobody has as-
serted that the Church of England has Ica man
