details, as we have do doubt we shall be able •tti
do to-morrow. We shall then be able to contra.,
did the reports which have been so industriously
circulated, for purposes too obvious to be mis-
taken, of the difficulties which have occurred in
forming the Administration.
Mr. ADDINGTON yesterday waited upon His
MAJESTY at Buckingham-house, and resigned his
Office : Mr. PITT was immediately appointed First
Lord of the Treasury and Chancellor of the Ex.
chequer. In consequence of his accepting these
Offices, a New Writ was moved for in the
House of Commons last night by Mr. LONG,
for the University of Cambridge. The other Ap-
pointments, as we have already stated, we have no
doubt of being able to lay before our Readers to.
morrow. At present it is certain, that Lord MEL-
VILLE', Lord HARROWEY, the Duke of MON.
TROSE, and Lord CAMDEN, will hold important
Offices in the New Administration.

We have already distinctly and candidly stated,
that we should have been glad to see the experiment
tried, of an Administration comprising the talents
of all Parties. It was, however, an experimelit
which might possibly have failed, and indeed no-
thing but the peculiar circumstances in which the
Country is now placed, could haVe led us to entertain
a wish that the trial should have been made : we know
that many persons of great weight and talents, who
will cordially support Mr. PITT'S Administration,
were extremely averse to it. But without entering
into any conjectures upon the probable success or
failure of such a Plan, we are convinced that the
Administration formed under the auspices of Mr.
PITT, will meet with the decided approba-
tion, and receive the cordial support of the Coun-
try. We shall then have an Administration which,
in addition to the transcendent talents of Mr. PITT;
will retain all the efficient parts of the last
Administration, and will retain there inst:d of
the GRENVILLES, who certainly did not form
the most popular part of Mr. PITT'S last Ad-
ministration. With respel to the condua which
the GRENVILLE Party have upon this occasion
thought themselves justified in adopting, we shall
content ourselves for the present with saying, that
it has excited our utmost astonishment !

LAST night we received Paris Papers to the 28th
talt. The only material Article which they con.
Lain, is an order of the Minister of Marine, direft-
ing the confiscation of such Neutral Vessels as in.
troduce into France Spies from England. How
easily this may be converted into a pretext for
conficating any Neutral Vessel whatever, or
arresting any person on board such vessel, for the
purpose of gratifying the caprice or the vengeance
of the French Government, needs Only to be men.
tioned to appear perfealy evident.
A Flotilla of 64. Vessels escaped from Honfleur
on the 23d ult. and got safe into Boulogne Roads.
Letters from the Hague, mention the receipt of
Dispatches from Admiral HARTS INK'S Squadron,
announcing its safe arrival at the Cape of Good
Hope, from whence, after taking on board a re-
inforcement of one Battalion, the' Squadron pro.
ceeded on its voyage to Batavia.

THE HaMbUrgig, Mail due on Wednesday, arrived
this morning. The following are the most impor-
tant articles of intelligence which it brings :

DUKE Of ENGUIEN.

The English Frigate the Narcissus, of •H guns,

moderation, wisdom and justice. It states, that as

Suhje4s of His Tvlaj,:sty, .they will, in. case s,sy
authenticated charges shall be brought against them,
he tried according to the Laws of this Country.

ttt C.44rd of the First Consul And Puswerita

Many young men have already entered into this
Guard. Our Cavalry is now well mounted on
Hanoverian Horses.
AMSTERDAM, APRIL 28.—PrivalIe Letters from
.Paris contain the following intelligence: " Many ad-
dresses, which within the last fortnight have been
presented to the First Consul, make a comparison be.
tween him and Charles the Grear,to induce him to take
upon himself the dignity of Emperor of France. It
is at least certain, that in a short time a change, ac.
cording to the general wish, will take place, with
respe& to the duration and stability of the Govern.
[tient, relative to which, preparatory communica-
tions have already been, made to some Foreign
Courts. It is even said, that the Imperial man-
tle is already embroidered, and the ceremony of
the Coronation arranged ; and that , besides the
Imperial Coronation, there will be another as King
of Lombardy. It is added, that the Counsel-
lors of State will take the • title of Imperial
Counsellors, that the Senators will receive a
new title, and' that there will be Delegates and
Sub-Delegates introduced, who will be Members of
the Legislative Body and the Tribunate, which will
receive a new Constitution. How far these latter
assertions are well founded, time must spew. The
French now expect with an impatient curiosity, the
moment when the First Consul will confirm their
happiness for futtiiity.
LUCIEN BONAPARTE has made an exchange
with the Roman Prince JusTINIANI, by which he
cedes to him Estates he has in France, for others
appertaining to the Prince in Italy.
HAGUE, MAY I.—Yesterday. evening the Mi-
nister at War, BERTHIER, arrived at Utrecht. Our
Minister at War, PYMANN, had received orders from
our Government to repair. thither, to arrange with
BERTHIER the particulars of the Expedition.. -Be-
fore this Expedition is undertaken, however, the
French Troops, if they should not have to celebray
an event which will, commence a new epoch in the
History of France, will at least have an opportu-
nity to express their wishes, and give their votes
in favour of the establishment of an Hereditary
Succession to the Go‘Arnment in the Family of Bo-
NAPARTE, in the same manner as the Consulship
was conferred on him for life ; .and many persons
believe that the journey of the Minister at War,
BERTHIER, has a relation to this °Neel.
