TREAT ‘‘, rut! I' RUSSIA AND SWEDEN.
Secretary CANNING presented at the Bar a
CLiry I tlit Ify of entered into hitt Ween
lit:, j,:sty and Ow ;cing,.pf , The Right
bei.:tutary, oTttii.)Papef. had been

read by the Clerk, stated that this treaty had been
framed at Memel on the gpth Marc ► ; Wt. the ra-
tification of the King of • Prussia had net arrived for
many months after, and' the events that bad since oe-
curre4.l had entirely superseded the prpvisions agreed

upon.
The `Hon. Secretary then presented a Message
from his Majesty, of which the following is the
substance :
GEORGE R.
" his MAIESTY thinks it proper to acquaint the House
of Commons, that he has entered into certain Subsidiary
Engagements With the Kt NG of Swa at ,w hich he will order
to be laid before the House is soon as a Copy.pl the Treaty
can be made out : and also that his Majesty's Minister to
the KI u, of P a uss t A
.had, in consequence of a power in-
vested in him, made advances to the amount of too,sool. for
the service of that Sovereign ; and that supplies of arms and
military stores have alio been furnished to his Pa o,ss rA :4
MAJ ES tv,to an amount not exceeding 25a,0001. Hrs m 4,
jury recommends to his faithful Commons to make good
the expences thus incurred."
Mr. Secretary CANNING, conceived, that in
moving that his Majesty's most Gracious Message
be referred to the Committee of Supply, it would
not be necessary to go into any explanation. As to,
the communication which was mentioned as intended
to be madey he had to say; that art arrangement had
in part been entered into with Prussia ; and in the
event of the Treaty with that Power having been
carried into effeel, the advances that bad been made
wtatlct have' been deduCted out of the instalments of
subsidy w Mich should have becoMe due in the course
of the campaign. T!le events that had happened
had rendered this intention fruitless, and as the
Treaty was not likely to take effe6t, the 100,0001.
advanced, and the 200,0001. the cost of arms, re-
mained to be, provided for by a vote of the Com-
mittee of Supply. •
A conversation ensued, in which Mr. WHIT..
BREAD said, he understood, in• the conversation with
the Chancellor of the Exchequer on a former night,
that though the l'reaty.with Prussia was contingent,
and the contingency had not taken place, the Treaty
with'Sweden was positiVe.
Mr. Secretary CANNING said with a reserva—
tion of the particulars till he should be ordered to
lay the Treaty before the House) that the Treaty
with Sweden was on the basis of the former Treaty
with his Swedish Majesty, but providing for an aug-
mentation of the Swedish force in Potntirania front
fourteen thousand to eighteen thousand men. It
was not necessary for bin) to say how far this
*rreaty was to be considered as in force now. Un-
doubtedly, if the Prussian Treaty had been in force,
its prpvistons 'would be of a much larger nature than.
those 'of the Treaty with Sweden. But the Treaty
with Prussia bad been put an end to,at 'the same'
time and by the same events as. the Continental War.
The engagementsr with Sweden had been entered
into three weeks ago.
The
.Messige was referred to the Committee of
Supply.
• A I.Vle4sage, of ,which the, following is the sub-
stance, was then brought' dow,n by the Chancellor
of the Exchequer :
. • .
GEORGE R.
" H is MAJIESTY relying upon the unifidm loyalty and zeal
of his faithful Commons,and thinking itof the utmost import-
ance in the present arduous crisis to be Prepared for ouch
emergencies as may arise, ,recominends it to his faithful
• Commons to make such provisions as may enable his MA.
JESTY to counteraa the designs of the Enemy, and to take
such measures`as the exigencies of afl'airs may require."
This Message also was referred to the Committee
of Supply.
On the Motion of Mr. ADAM, a new Writ was
ordered • for the County of Kinross, in the room of
Mr. ADAM, who, having been eleCted for Kincar-
dineshire also, had made his ele&ion to serve for the
latter.
