MAI-MATTA WAR.

Mr. FRAYCIS rose to make the Motion for
Papers, of which he gave notice on Wednee:lay last,
and expressed his sattsfaCtion that what he had to
say would not take up much time, as he could not
see any reasonable ground of objeCtion to produce
the Papers he %visited the' House to he in possession
of. The cane was ',leerily this :—ln the last Sea.
sion of Parliament as variety of Papers had been
moved fur, and ordered, relative to the war then
carrying on against the Mehratta Chief Scindea,
and the Rajah. Befere the Seision was over, the
House was informed, that that war was terminated;
nevertheless, it appeared, that very soon after the
close of the last Session, etivieee were received of
another war having commenced with the Mahratta
Chief called bleaker ; and to this war it is that the
Papers now intended to be moved for relate. This
war, lie said, had already been attended with many
disagreeable circumatances, amongst which, he beg.
getl leave to mention one fan : that, in a certain
part of India, called the Buldercund, which had
been ceded by the Peishwa, a whole party of Sepoys
and artilletymen had been surprised at their post,
and cut to nieces by Helkar's cavalry. 'As to the
Sepoys, it was true they might be easily repleeed ;
but, he could assure the. Ileese, that artillerymen
in India were valuable, and the lose a truly be.
times one, lie whiled to have the whole Repels of
the present Mehretta war before the Blouse; and, on
this ground, his Motion was founded. There was
another circumstance he wished to mention to the
House : jn a province of India, called the Guzze.
rat, which lies to the N. 'ITV. of Bombay, a certain
portion of territory bad been mica to the India
Company, by a Prince called Geeicower, which, it
was generally understood, had beor mud for the
purpose of paying the expenct, attending the war.
Out of this food, be said, it had beers cxpetied that
sumo payment would be made; but, instead of pro.
clueing that advantage, he understood it had been
attended with great expence, and that the Bombay.
Government Irdd adually advances) e 60,0001. on at.
courts of if. This appeared to hie: very exrraordi.
nary, and he thought it deserving the attention of
the House. HR then moved, " That there be laid
before the House copies or ext rafts of all Dispatches
and Correspondence between the Government of
India and the Mahrota Chief Hnikar and also
copies or camas of all Letters, 4 r, from such per-
sons as have carried on a•eetret correspondence."
Lard CASUERE /NU assured the House he
had no °Nation to the rttolunion of the Tapers
moved for ; but he thought the kloneurable Gentle-
man, in wlting the Motinnonight as well have 4b.
stained from alluding to circumstances which, in his
opinion, had no relation to the reehjea at that mo.
merit, With revert% to what had been said of the
advance of the GaVrfnillent of lilfpbisy, that was a
subHi which wrield be fit matter of observation on
the neat India budget ; and, as to the surprise of
the post alluded to, it was one eint:le di estrous
cireutteitaece in the course of the Wet', and ought
not ~les be mentioned by itself. To the Meatier),
hisweVer, he had no objedien.

The Question was then put ;:trul agreed to.

TUUSLIAY, JANUARY 22, 180 S.

Tat MANI/ /ITO addressed to the SPAN isit NA.
?MN by the Patrice of PIACI, in' our Paper of
this day, exhibits so much gascoopde, fury, and
malevolence, that it may fairly be considered as the
aid of French diftation. Having entirely broken
the spirit, and possessed itself of the wealth of
Spain, it may eatily be conceived that the ar.
rogant Usurper of France will not hesitate
to make that unfortunate Country utter such sen.
tiHICHIS as he may prompt, and such language
as he may prescribe. But this evident off.
spring of Corsican arrogance not only betrays
the features of its parent by gasconade, fury,
and malevolence, but also by its falsehood, in
misrepresenting the conduct of the British Govern.
menr, and loading it with the charge of cruelty and
perfidy, when it most know that it has displayed a
degree of forbearance which manifested the strongest
desire, on the part of our Ministers, to maintain
the relations of Peace towards an unfortunate Court,
try groaning under the despotism of France...—
But we shall not dwell upon this topic at present,
because our Ministry are about to submit to man..
kind such an account of the whole of their proceed.
ings respeCting Spain, as must tend to the honour
of this Country for generosity, humanity, and every
Laudable feeling consistent with the duty they owe
to the British Empire, and the insulted Rights of
every Independent State in Europe.

is material ; her quarter-gallery was carried away,
the stern gallery much injured,snd the poop unship..

damage sustained in her rigging was the loss of the
dtiver-boom : it is not expelled that she will be
able to proceed to sea in less than a fortnight, as It
will be absolutely necessary for her to go into hat.

to Portsmouth; but whether the dispatch of the
remainder of the Fleet will he delayed till the

they will be dispatched.
