WAYS AND MEANS.

On the Motion of the CHANCELLOR of the
14",xcH EQUER the House went into a Committee
to consider of Ways and Means for raisin; the De.
ficiencies creates! in the Interest olthe Loan, by the
sense the House hild expressed on the Tax on Ruses
kept for the pthposes of Husbandry, and the discon;

The Resolutions were successively agreed to ;
and the Report ordered ttrhe received on Monday.

Paicnt by which the appointment had taken place.
The. cHANCELLOIt of the Exetitizu tit moved
the Order of the Day, for the third
.reading of the
Legacy Duty Bill.
,S;i• 11 AR RY IVTILI M condemned this Rill,
;14 unjustly aW ding the proviaiuns of younger
children, and falling particularly heavy on large
families.

Lgrd GEORGE CI PENDISH argued to the
same effect, and objetied particularly to the charge
of zi per cent. on legacies to non relatives.

Air, SPENCER STANHOPE also decidedly
condemned this Tax, which went to affeft orphans
and .children not settled in the life-time of their pa:
rents. , It would fall in most instances on the old
maids, on the ugly, the deformed, and the
favoured, the lame, the halt, and the blind, who
could not be married off (a laugh). The best use
that could be made of the two or three first years'
produce of the Tux, was to build an hospital for
the wretehed persons op whom it was intended to
be raised. He should himself shelter his. property
fur hih large family by the expedient of a devise in
preference to a testament.

- The CHANCELLOR of the .6' XCHEQU,ER
was of opinion that parents would generally add
the amount of the Tax to the Legacy, that it may
go undiminished to their children. Another very
easy expedient would 'he to discharge the children
by insurance. In personal property, the addition
of the amount of the Tax could he easily made.—
He thought, that in the case of Legacies to non.
relatives the unexpected advantage would easily re-
concile the payment of two and a halt per Cent.
Mr. GREY opposed the Tax at one of those
diteCt charges on capital which all gond authors of
finance condemned. It the charge was thrown on
the 'eldest son, as it would be if the Tax wag
added to the Legacy,,, it would, in the cases t.sf
landed property, tend to bear down and weaken the
Aristocracy of the Country. Properties of the
same nature and minima would besides be very
unequally affetted. Some Of them, by the frequent
occurrence of deaths being charged much more Ire.
quently than others.' It was an odious nature in
this, Tax, that it came to enhance misfortune when
the heaviest strokes had fallen. The 'Luse might
more easily consent to this Tax, because Gentle-
men were not likely to be themselves affefted by
it i but he begged them' not easily to saottion
mischief which would fall heavy on their dearest`
connexions.
The Question was then loudly called for, when
the Bill was read a third time.

. Sir gIiNRY ' MILDMAY then moved, as an
Amendment, to leave out " all from press a, line 6,
to press 3, line I ;"' the effea of which, as stated
from the CHANCELLOR, would be to give up the
whole of the Duty on direct bequests to children
and their children.
After a few observations from Dr. LAWRENCE
and Mr. Fox, and an explanation from the CHAN.

LONDON,

SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 1805.

Wa last night received some more Paris Paper',
hut riot of a later date than, those which arrived
►on Thursday. They contain very little that is
important, except a new, and we trust, fruitless
attempt of the Usurper to prevent the sale of Bri•
tish Colonial Produce on the Coritinent. The fol.;
lowing is the regula►ion to which we allude :-
41 Information having been received of ships declared• to
have come from Embden, whero there is no French Com-
missary to deliver the prescribed certificates, having come
into French ports with cargoes of Colonial produce which
they took in at English Ports :

. .
''• It is the intention of His Majesty the Emperor, that
ships coining from. Embden should be searched wish the
utmost exadlitudeimmediatilyon their arrival ; that, with..
Out paying any regard to their papers or ceitifieates, furnished.
them by the local authorities, the colonial merchandise
which they may have on board shall be seized and confiscat-
ed ; and that, In this case, the merchandise of the North, the
admiiiture or which with the fanner is solely intended to
conceal the real origin of the goods shipped in Eugland, shall
undergo the same land.

These provisions are applicable to all Shipscoming frord'
Ports where the French Government have no Commissary.,
and which have on board otherpocls than those of the North
or of the Levant. ' '

The Exemption from Duty granted to Salt Fish coming
from Embdeu is repealed tsy the same Order."

We have been favoured with the perusal of two
private Letters from Francep the one dated the 3a
and the. other the 12t11 ult. The destination of
the Toulon and Rochefort Squadrons causti as much
speculation
.and' c)nje6ture in Fnince at in this
Country. Sicily, Algiers, the MITC4, Egypt, and
Sardinia, have each been positively stated to be
r tie object of.that Expedition. Although we can.
not ct,11,0 ircirn these. Letters any information as
trs i TS 'rail destination,. they, strongly con4rm the
sye have before,e;ciiressedf. yiE, cithFx:

that the Toulon Fleet put to sea again filmed'.
ately after its return to Port, or that it wont
the main body of the Fleet, but only the diobial
Ships, that returned to Toulon, because if that Fleet
had returned to and remained in Port, it nitut
have been known in Paris on the 3d of Febrile'',
which is the date of the Letter to whidh we 21146,
With resped to the other Squadron,
the Letter
states, that 1, the Rochefort Squadron, which hatenumber of Troops on board, is supposed to be hi'
rrhiha
tended for a Coo-de-Mein upon Jamaica ;
others imagine, that the English Possessions in the
East are the objectof attack." The intended'''.
tempt upon Ireland is still talked of very coniAellal
at Paris; but the Irish Traitors in the Freoeb Set'
to
vice have of late become objeds of suspicia
the Usurper, from the idea, that there are 04

with the exception of a few of the Chief*, tiler

The Installation of the Knights of the Garter
is to take place at Windsor, on Sr. George's Day.
Great preparations are making for the occasion,
particularly in the Cathedral. The banriers over the
stalls have all been removed to give place to new
ones, and a new porch, or grand entrance, is now
ereeting on the side next the Poor Knights' House.
The model is taken from the principal porch lead.
ing into the Castle. To give some idea of the
expeded grandeur of the approaching procession,
we need only Lid, that Soo guineas have been of.
feted and refused by the Organist of St. George's
Chapel for the. use of the loft or place where the
Organ is situate, which will command a view of the
ceremony.

The PRINCESS ELIZABETH is employed in em.

Bengal.

Twelve Ships of the Line are getting ready for

THE ,ORATokto.—Covent G:irden Theatre had
a very numerous Audience last night present at this
sublime entertainment. The SeleCtion wag chiefly
from HANDEL, and the whole was supported ad.
mirably by the Vocal and Instrumental departments.
BRAH4M was much admired for his manner of i ng-
ing The Death of elbereramby, which is a pathetic
and solemn composition, and therefore not unsuit.
ably introduced even in an entertainment chiefly de.

charming Duet composed by SALE., HARRISON
gave a new sung called '6 the Soldier's Dream,"
composed by ATWOOD, with exquisite taste and
simplicity. A violin Concerto was perfotmed in a
good old style by Mr. Le v Nut, the leader of His

plauded.
SHOCKING ACC I DENT.—Yesterday afternoon,
about five o'clock, Lady RICHARD PENNYMAN
stopped her chariot at the White Hotse Cellar, Picca.
dilly, and ordered her coachman to hand a parcel out
of the boor, which was to be sent from the Coach_
office to the country. When the coachman stooped
into the boot, another coach drove up behind,
which caused the horses of Lady Pi NNYMAN'S' Car.
riage to take fright, being very fine blood cat-
tle. They drove on, full speed, till they came to
the end of,Artington.street, down which they ra.
pidly turned. The Coachman endeavoured to re.
cover the reins, which he could not effect ; and, in
the struggle, he fell an the ;sok which runs between
the horse, from which he could not extricate him.
self. Arlington.street not being a thoroughfare,
,the horses. ran with all the force they could against
the railing at the end of it, which being only
painted wood, quickly gave way from the shock.
The area was about is feet deep, and four feet wide.
The pole came against the wall, and was broke to
pieces, and the unfortunate Coachman was preci.
