DREACII OF PRIVILEGE.

Afr.'PROT EROE -rose to complain of what lie
conceived to be a gross breach of the privileg6 of
.the House, He alluded to a publication, entitled
" An Abstract of the Minutes of Evidence taken
before a Committee of the whole House of Com-
mons on the Affairs of the Nast India Company,"
Had it contained a fair abstract of the evidence,
he should have considered it incorrect, but should
not have complained ; but us it contained a gar-
bled and unfair statenient of parts of the evidence,
he was impelled to make a complaint.' The work
had been not merely printed and advertised for
sale,, but copies had been sent to every Member of
the House. As the-person who was the author of
the work
_might have written it without being,
aware that lie was guilty of a breath of the' privi-
leges of the. House, it was, not his wish to• have
him punished ; .bitt, if the offence were repeated,
he should feel it his duty to bring the offender to
condign punishment,
Mr. TIERNEY thought, that if any person print-
ed only what had passed before the Committee,
he was not guilty of any breach of privilege.
Mr. PrtorimioE complained, beeause the state.

icularize those parts to which he principally oh,
Tted, unless he were called upon by some

Mr. TIERNEY said, that if the statement was
garbled and incorrect, the person :who hint
printed it was undoubtedly guilty of a breach of
privilege.
Mr. ROBINSO.N, on the part of the East India
Company, disclaimed all cinmection with the pub-
lication, which had been the subject of animadver-
sion.

Private letters, received from the French coast,
state, that.Tar.LuYaAND had been appointed Pre-
sident of the Council of Regency at Paris.
We insert this day some further extracts from
the French PapeN, amongst which is another
fabricated article purporting to be intelligedce
from Sicily.

• ;'wt., after a long silence respecting him, has
at length been noticed, and we find him on hoard
his flotilla at Naples, but snot. a word is said ofhid ,
being about to join the Grand Army.
Respecting the actions with BEAUHARNOIS,
which we mentioned yesterday, the Paris Papers
maintain the most perfect silence. We are still
without the details of this victory, for such it no
doubt is, there being no mail this morning
from the North. The arrival" of a vessel (the
OCean) from the mouth of the Elbe, whence she
sailed. the 21st instant, was announc6d last night,
but she brought 00 further intelligence respecting
the defeat of BEAUHARNOIS with the exception of
an addition to,the general, statement of • the fact,
that the only line.of retreat which remained open
to the vanquished army was in the dhectiou of
Cassel.

METTERNICH has gone from Vienna to
the' head-quarters of the Emperor ALEXANDER,
and ithinense magazines for the supply of the
Austrian troops have been established at Troppan,
Olinutt, and in the neighbourhood, but nothing
further is known respecting the intentions of
Austria.

In another column will be found an official
Russian Bulletin, giving an account of the sur-
render of the fortress of Czenstokaw on the 6th
instant by capitulation.

The LORD MAYon, Aldermen, Sheriffs, and
Common Council, went in procession this day to

The procession passed along Cheapside, Lndgate..
Hill, neet.itreet, the Strand, St-
James's-street, and. Piccadilly, to Kensington
Palace, where they arrived about one o'clock...—
,
The weather being unfavourable, the attendant
crowd was nut very numerous.

Mr. .13ttooKEs, of the glass manufactory in the
Strand, piaced.a purple Hag at the window of his
first-flour, on which was printed, in gold letters,
"Hold to the Laivs.".a monition which lie doubt-
less considered as very properly addressed to sonic
.
of those who were likely to attend theTrucession.

The following letter has been just received from
Falmouth :

PALNIOUTif, APRIL 25.
" Arrived the Hebe (bite his Mi.jesty's ship
Laurel), from Philadelphla, in 35 days ; brings- a
report, that a French frigate bas been captured tiy

Corbelitz neni.llorgh, April 12.
" Last Saturday a bloody 'battle took place, in
which the French were most severely
:Had daylight lasted only two hours longer, one -
half of the enemy would have been destroyed ; as
it waS, he Was compelled to make a speedy
retreat, most vigorously pursued by the Prussiart4,:
It was most gratifying to wittres3 the heroism and
valour of our army. Sixteen 'pieces of cannon,
SOO horses, 800 prisoners remain In our !lauds,
and on the field of battle were wonted 1,500
dead, of whom only a small number were Our
meth',

(Corbelitz is the, village where Frederick IL
used forlmany years to bold his reviews, and the
action seems t►► have taken place on the review
ground. No official account of this affair has
yet arrived.)
The il/11111411 murder of the four German Pa'=,
triots, mentioned in the French papers, has ex-
cited the strongest indignation. A Gentleman
belonging to the Committee for assisting the
German Patriots read the account of it to
the Committee, the foLowing resolution was im-
mediately passed :
That the Foreign Secretary to the Commit,
tee be requested to write, in order to ascertain
the state of the families of the unfortunate suf-
ferers, viz. :---llirmann Friese, Repke BosebenHo,
mahn Henri Neuhaus, and Gird fiarms ; and
that immediate and libera rebid be afforded
them."
