Sf/LENI Q(7 I S LitINI A U DEAT ?

LONDON,
NOVEHBER is, 1314.

IWe veSterday intimated our belief that the Pro-
perty Tax would be continued in force for some
time, and upon this subject we find Mr. WHIT-
BREAD again pressing the Minister laSt .night. A
very short notice wii;, we think, save the Public
from being misled on this point.—ln the first
place, neither the re-enactment nor the expira-
tion of this Tax ,(whichever may happen) will be
a Ministerial measure : the decision rests with
the Legislature—with the Representatives of
the People, the House of Peers, and the
Sovereign. It is, therefore, ridiculous to treat
the question as one of Patty, either on one
side or the other. The existing; law expires
.(vide our Abstract of Parliamentary Papers in a
preceding column) on 6th April next; but if the
Legislature sec cause in the circumstances of the
times to renew its operation, surely Parliament
(not Ministers) have as full an authority to do
this, as they had to pass the original Bill. 'T
talk of breach of faith, and violation of our .pub-:
lic engagements in this matter, is the height' of
factious absurdity. By such a rule, every war
tax made permanent, has been so made at the
expence of a breach of faith—every alteration in
a Law is a violation of an engagement once en-
tered into between the Government and the Public.
The truth rests in small compass. The same ne-
cessity in which the Tax originated must be shown
to justify its prolongation beyond the period con-
templated when it was imposed. lf, then, it can
be proved that the winding-up of our War Ac-
counts and the situation of our present contest
with America absolutely require the continua-
tion of • such a Revenue as this Tax pro-
duces, the same power which laid it on may
repeat the Act, and it behoves those who

object to it either to iti4rove its necessity, or
point out other less,obuoxious means by which
the supplies can be obtained. If theyfail in both
these points, we confess we are at a loss 4.0 esti-
mate that patriotism which vilifies a measure in-
dispensibly called :..or by the state of the country.

We have inserted elsewhere the only particulars
which the Buenos Ayres Gazettes to the end of
July furnish. Since that period the Thomas Blow
has arrived at Liverpool with further accounts
from the River Plate to the 21st of August. Monte
Video remained in piet occupation 'oltbe. Buenos
Ayres troops ; but such was the exhausted state
of the town, that the inhabitants were nearly re-
duced to starvation. The Governor, -VIGODET,
stipulated in the capitulation he signed, that be
was to be permitted to return to Old Spain ; and
although he afterwards refused to surrender the
town in conformity to the capitulation, the Buenos
Ayres Government did not alter their intention,
but sent him home.; and, letters received from
Spain yesterday give information of his arrival in
that country.

Advices have also reached town from Valpa-
raiso, to the 25th of May last. At that period
great doubts were entertained whether the Vice-
roy of Lima would ratify the Treaty of Peace
agreed to between the Lima General and the Peo-
ple of Chili, in virtue of
.which the latter were to
be allowed to exercise a Free Trade with Great
Britain, and all other Allies of Spain, on the sim-
ple condition of acknowledging FERDINAND VII.
It was understood that the Viceroy was not antho-
rised to accede to.such terms. Nevertheless, it
had been agreed that two Deputies from Chili
should be dispatched to the Cortes. ,

An immense number of Private Communications
from Canada are given in every Newspaper,
and unite in condemning the conduct of the. Go-
vernor of our Colonies in the most unqualified'
terms. As the Public have, however, been satu-
rated with this species of Correspondence, we
shall content ourselves with simply noticing the
fact, and keep from being a prty to the raising
of a clamour which may, 'indeed, and does
appear to have too good a foundation ; but
which seems also to be too loud for reason,
and too virulent for perfect truth. If Sir
GEORGE PREVOST has,. as i 3 stated, been
recalled, and is coming hitlier to stand in his own

jUstificatiou, it is assuredly. both unnecessary. and
unjust to feed this violent. outcry against hits
unnecessary, because the evil complained-of has
been removed, and unjust, because the accused
hay not been heard in his own defence, and is on
the eve of being brought to his answer.

No French Papers hive arrived in the usual
course this niui fling.

Cencral Dcuoun, and the Officers arrested wial
him at Paris, have, it is stated in a private letter,
been sent prisoners to the Castle of Vincennes.

There was last night a long Debate in the
House of Commons, on the subject of the sepa-
ration of the Officers of the 10th Hussars, in con-
sequence of the Court-Martial on Col. QUENTIN.
As we, in the first instance, thought it our duty
to abstain from entering into the merits of a case
decided by a legal, constitutional, and competent
Tribunal, so shall we continue to refuse our par-
ticipation in the error of making that a party
question, which seems removed to the furthest
possible degree from any connexion with Party.—
If the Opposition have supposed that they could
convert this matter into one of their favourite
measures of personal annoyance to their PRINCE,
they grossly deceived themselves; for at least, so
far as the REGENT was concerned, it does appear
that favouritism would have been most foolishly
conferred, which supported a foreign Officer, rais-
ed from an inferior station in the army, at the
expence of displeasing many of the most power-
ful and noble families in England. If ever public
and honourable sentiments were apparent in the
act of a Sovereign, they must be acknowledged,
on the face of this business, to have been those
which must have influenced the Head of, the Bri-
tish Government.

Yesterday, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Council
was held at the 'Foreign Odice, which sat till half
past four. All the Cabinet _Ministers, in town
were present.
Major-General STUART arrived yesterday after-
noon from Halifax, in 31 days but the news
has not transpired.
Letters have, it is said, been received from
New York to the date of the 27th of September,
which is a week.subsequent to the Message of the
President. In the few days of which the reports
have been obtained of the proceedings of Con-
gress, nothing .had occurred of the least impor-
tance. The Legislature was, as usual at the com-
mencement of the Session, engaged in forming
the several Committees, and until these had en-
tered on their duties, there was no expectation of
any 'debate touching the interesting subject of
the war.

One of the communications from New York
states, that the Fingal has been. in attendance two
months for disphtches, in perfect readineSs to sail,
but that none had been conveyed from the seat of
Government. We are told, from another .quar-
ter, that this vessel waited for the appearance of
the John Adams, and that she would not leave
the United States until rtime was afforded, for the
transmission of the answer to the dispatches from
• Europe, forwarded by that frigate.
At New York great alarm prevailed, equally
from political, military, and commercial embar-
rassments ; and in consequence of the bearing' of
the two former on trade, and the distrust re-
sulting from them, many failures among the more
respectable classes of merchants had occurred.
The statement that Colonel TRANT had been
succeeded as GoVernor of Oporto by Colonel PAM-
PLONA, is not quite correct. The former Officer,
it is true, had proceeded on a visit to Lisbon, but
no one had been appointed in his stead, at the
date of the latest accounts from Oporto.
The Earl of WINCHELSEA is gone to Brussels
1 for hiS health, -and will not return till the Spring.
COMMERCIAL.—Another Banking House of con-
siderable consequence, in the. City, we lament to
say, was under the necessity of stopping paytnent",
yesterday evening,
,in .A.Morning Paper,
says,—" What renders this stoppage remarkable.
is, that theßanking House received their custotnere-
checks till four o'clock, but refused to pay. In
consequence of which, at the Clearing HOuse,
the other Bankers came to a resolution not to 'pay,
through the clearing; any thing to the-Bauking
House that had stopped,"
• A plan will be laid before Ministers in a few
days, calculated to prevent ..the unbounded issue
of Country Bankers' notes, by making them,
(whenever called on) state upon oath the amount of
each sort of notes they have otit„ in the same
manner as the Bank of England does. This, it
is supposed, will prevent so-wide and destructive
an issue as is customary at present.
. A Gentleman who left Paris within this fortnight,.
was told by his Banker, that -the. daily issne.of
money which he made to the Eaglish 1s Paris,
was 10,0001. •
_

WINDSOR, Nov. 17.—The QUEEN had a select
Party in the evening at the Castle. Cranbourne
Lodge has undergone some slight alterations dur-
ing the absence of the Princess CHARLOTTE at
Weymouth.
BRIGHTON, Nov. 16.—A square box, contain-.
ing letters and papers, from Carlton-House, regu-
larly arrives here,' for the PRINCE REGENT, by the
Mail. His Royal Highness rises early, and the
morning i 3 invariably devoted to public business.
WEYMOUTH, Nov. 15.—This day the Princess
CHARLOTTE bathed.—After breakfast she again
resumed her favourite excursion on the ocean.
In the afternoon, the Party landed under a royal
salute, having enjoyed a pleasant breeze at S. W.
most favourable for water parties in this capacious
bay.

Monday evening, the shop of Mr. HARRIS,
Charlotte-street,Tottenhaw-court-road,was broke
open, and robbed of flannel, &c. One of the
robbers was yesterday emulated for trial.
