CORN BILL.

Mr, NV tiSTIRN move," the Order of the Day fora
Committee of the whole House to consithr the se.
vend Reports of the Corn Committees ; and, on
the question that the Spy Agile do 'cove the ch,ir,
Mr. Alderotto CjillliE rose' to oppose it, be.
Canty! he thought the siihjed one of too much
pottance, and tan deeply Involving the public in.
terest, to be brought forward at so late a, period of
the .Sessinn, when It was impossible' it could re.
ceive the due consideration it required, fie had,
beside; to observe, that the measure, with a' view to
which the Honourable Member yesterday moved
for the 'Committee, was one which ought not to
he adopted without the most mature consideration.
Fur even already, and-while the Bill, which had
, su recently .fall:n to the ground, was, pending ,in
rarliament, its, operation upon' the Corn.matket
was most alarming. The price of bread.corn, parti.
• cularly, bad a most miasma and .enormous rise, from
nu other public cause, insomuch that: the _Bakers'
Company had yesterday waited upon the Lord
IVl4yor ,Ind- Magistrates, and represented that,
owing to this rise, they could not, without a most.
consider Ale loss,
.proceed with their business, un.
lets a very material increase was made in the price
of hresd, as regulated .for the week. The price of
Corn still continued to rise higher this day, and for
this fact, he would appeal to his Hun, Colleague
neat' Win (Mr. Alcierttlart, CURTIS). It was, there.
fore, obvious, that the consequences at reviving the
measure must be extremely oppressive to the Public,
and he hoped the Hon. Member would nut persist
In the measure this Session.
Mr. WESTERN said, it certainly was his intern
lion to follow up his Motion for the Committee, 'by
waving for the revival of the Bill which had recent.
Irpaslied that House, with scarcely any opposition;
which bad also paiked the Lords, and had only failed
by the Inadvertency of some Amendments not ad,
miesible in thiS House ; and he was convinced, that
it was a measure absolutely necessary to precent the
recurrence of that excessive high price of Corn which
tad prevailed within the last twelve years, and which
afte!).led with such distress to the Country, and
Via,
i,,vent also thousands of Acres from being cod.
fr v„ri.ed from the grow th.of Corn to other purposes;
144 i tt he necessity of resorting to other Coml..
iof Grain; and divcrtiPs the en.

ri," -

Farmer so the Cultivators of other Nations. There
was also another fat pretty well known, namely,
that the Government of :France, to prevent the de;
pressing of the Farming Interests in that Country,
had permitted the exportation of Grain, a very great
pin of which might soon find its way into British
Markets : was it then; desirable to encourage, by
British consumption, the interests of the Agricul-
turists .of France at this crisis ? Feeling, therefore,
the necessity of reviving the measure, he should
certainly, persist-in it.
Sir WM. CURTIS acknowledged that the Bill
had been allowed to pass the House without much,
it any opposition, because its tendency was not con.
sitlered, or the efreas that have arisen from it, fore.
seen. But scarcely was it on the eve of passing
into a law, when it created a general alarm, and
caused a very considerable rise in the price of Corn and
Flour. All the horrors of a Scarcity already seemed
to return on the public mind ; and it was in vain to
say that Foreign Ports would be .open to us ; the
mischief might be.done before any foreign assistance
could be received in such an emergency ; so deeply
struck was he with the ill consequences that might
attend the measure, that he was determined in every
stage, and by every legal parliathentary means, to
oppose

The Question was then put, that the Sr BAKER do
now leave the Chair, which was agreed to without a
division : and the Resolutions being agreed to in
the Committee, the Report was ordered to be re.
ecived to.morrow.—Adj2orned.

Parliament, we un►lerstand, will be Prorogued on
Tuet.day seinnight. It is certainly nis MA j s6Ty'a
intention to go in Person to the [louse
.uf Peers.

By the
.7amaica Mail which arrived in Town
this morning, we have received letters datedthe
loth ult. The latest accounts from. St.• Domingo
state, that LJESSALINrs, after the dreadful massacre
of which we some time ago gave an account, had
colleifted a large black force, and had commenced
his march with the avowed intention of driving
the French out of the City of San Domingo, and
the Spanish part of the Island ; but it was gene.
rally supposed that the French would be able to
make a very considerable resistance.

WE received yesterday the Paris Papers to the
3111 inst. The Coronation of BONATARTII is fixed
for the 9th of Nov. the Anniversary of the Day he
overthrew the then existing Government, and made
himself master of France. It does not yet appear
to be quite determined whether the Porn is to be
ordered to perform the ceremony.

On Sunday the Bth, the Foreign Ministers who
had received their new Credentials, were introduced
to BONAPARTE pile mile, 'as thetonitar ternwit ;
that is to say, promiscuously, without any
gala to rank. This plait was probably adopted,
in consideration of the feelings of ifie Foreign Mini.
stern, who must, all have been anxious to avoid
precedence in so degrading a, ceremony. Tie Mini.
titers of Russia, Austria, • Sweden, Portugal, amd
ihnerkat were not Pre'e.nt. It was not to be ex.
peeled dim either the Russian or Swedish Ministers
would have attended on such an occasion ; and as
for Mr. LIVINGSTON, with all his disposition to
flatter the vanity of it ..tatinpAtt.Tti, he cannot yet
have received his Credentials from America. It is,
howevir, alittleiingtilar, that the Austrian Mini.
ster was not:present, because there can be no doubt
but that the Etapittok of Gi RitANY will acknow.
ledge the new Era elltOß. This ceremony is perhaps
:only reserved for a separate occasion, to make it more
conspicuous. One of the /113nitrior contains a long ar-
ticle upon the views and principles of the French Go-
vernment, which are of course stated to be founded in
justice and moderation. The new EMPEROR has no
plans of aggrandizement or conquest,land aho've. all,
is particularly cautious not to ;raerferr in. the concerns
of the neighboUring States. Such is die language

RATHBUN, JULY 6.—lmmediately after the ver-
bal declaration of the Deputy of the ELECTOK of
I3ADEN, on the 2d inst. the Deputies for Austria
and the Eleflorate of Brandenburg made the follow.
ing verbal declarations :

VERBAL DECLARATION OF Till DEPUTY FOR THE
ELECTORATE OP BOHEMIA AND ARCHDUTCHY
OF AUSTRIA.

" The Austrian Comitial Legation, at the time fixed for
the consideration of the Imperial Russian Note, repeated
the Circular Declaration of the 14th of May, in expeEta_
flan of a satisfaCtory explanation on the occurrence in
question, - and will now immediately communicate to Its
High Court, the wish of the EleCtorate of LADEN, and
the motives on which it is founded, in certain expeCtation
that His IMPERIAL. MAJESTY 'OM receive the propo.
sition of His EleCtoral Highness of Baden, and the expla.
nations of the French Government, relative to the above
mentioned occurrence, with all that attention which he con-
stantly bestows on every event which may conduce to disturb
the tranquillity, security, and welfare of the German Em-
pire."

VERBAL DECLARATION OF THE COMITIAL LEGA.
TIONOF THE ELECTORATE OF BRANDENBURG.

'• The Legation for Brandenburg will hasten to make re-
port of the verbal Pet...tar:l6°ns of the Deputy of the Elec-
torate of Baden, suitable to the importance of its contents,
and the subject to which it relates. In the mean time, It
believes, from the known sentiments of his Prussian Majesty,
that it may with certainty be expeded that His Majesty will
find a consolation in the Declaration of the Eledor of BAD EN,
relative to the explanations on the occurrence in questioo, as
being such as are suitable to the sentiments of the French
Government, and its exalted Head, towards the Empire of
Germany, as evinced in the late Mediation of Peace, and that
his Majesty will give his approbation to the wish of his
Illedoral Highness of BA EN, and the motives on which it
is founded.'',

CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNE 9.—Several Councils
of State have been held by the Pone, in consequence
of advice that BONAPARTE has been proclaimed Em.
perm. in France.

The report, that LUCIRN BONAPARTR will come
here to negotiate with the Porte on some important
°Netts, finds no credit.

The Russian Squadron which passed this city a
fortnight ago, is now in the Sea of Mamura; some
of the Ships belonging to it are damaged.
ITALY, JUNE 28.---ST. NAPOLEON, the Patron
Saint of the French Emperor, has as yet only been
beatified. Negotiations, it is said, are now carry.
ing on at Rome for his Canonization.

The Senate of Genoa has deputed the Senators
DALP and FERasNi
,to compliment the Emperor
NAPOLEON on his new dignity.
PETERADUR OH, JUNE a6.—Though the chaagc
of Government in France is well kno‘wn here, it
has nut as yet been rflicially notified to our Court,
nor is it known whether it speedily will be. Gen.
Ilenouv L LE, the French Aml)assador, who left
this city a few day's since, will probably not soon'
return, as he has sold all his household furniture,
wine, &c. It is likewise very uncertain whether
Count IVlnactiFa, our late 'Ambassador at Paris, will
come into 111.1 Ministry, as it is understood that he
will soon thifi capital, and go to his estate.

This Morning arrived a Mail from New-YOrk
and Halifax, brought to Falmouth' by the Leicester
Packet.

Y,-,tertily at eleven o'ckek, the RPY+L Fiat 1 t.
left Kew for %Vim!sot.

Yesterday afternoon, the CHANCFLI:OR of the
EXCHFQUER, Earl CAMDEN, Lurd% HAMICESBURIC
and CA%ll.t:lt EACH, went to Woolwich to dine,
Lord Mt LvILLS went from Whitehall Stairs in the
Admiralty Barge, and joined the party at Wool..
wick. Afret dinner, they proceeded'to Mr. Lotic's,
at Brumley, where they slept, and were expetted
in town this morning.
The payment. of the Quarter of the Civil List due
on the sth of 0- Ai0- er, 1803, will commence in the
course of next week. It is generally Understood
that the whole of the arrears will be paid off before
Christmas.

Yesterday a Common Hall was, held at guildhall,
for the elation of Sheriff (J. lILEADEN, Esq, bay.
tog paid his fine into the Chamber to be excused
serving the tame). Mr. Ttioirre acquainted the
Livery, that the next Gentleman in rntation (there
being thirty.eight on the list), S. Down loons, Esq.
being old and infirm, was not capOsie of fulfilling the
duties of the,office ; he was, odd-ore, passed over,
and W. Doisvit.t.n, keg. Citizen anti-,Staticiner,
elected.

A caricature print is privately handed about at
Paris, in which BONAPARTE is represented on his
Throne, surronnded by his brothers, with the bloody
corpse of the Duke D'Emcm lex at his feet, over
which is written 41 Princes at Blood."'

t h'as beer► said that BONAPARTE means to restore
the Stadtholderate to the House of ORANGE. Such
an aft on • the part of the Corsican Emperor would
be extraordinary indeed, as it would be minstating
power in its legitimate course.
• Colonel Cox, who has lately been. appointed a
Master in Chaneety, still retains the Command of
the liloomshury Volunteers ; but instead of Colonel,
his Corps now call him Master and Commander.
BONAPARTE. it seems, postpones his Imperial
Coronation till the month of NoVembei, the day
on which the annual Monarch of London takes pos.
session of his civic Throne. We know not how
far the tespeftive cereinonies may resemble each
other ; but considering tharthe inauguration of the
Ccrsican Emperor will set the seal upon. Gallic

HANDCOCK, of that vessel. The Charges were,
for intending to shoot Lord WitArmss STUART,
commanding the C►erceot Frigate, when he was on
hoard of the Cru;zer, and for frequent Drunkenness.
The Court having heard the evidence in support of
the Prosecution, as well as what the Prisoner had
to urge in his defence, acquitted him of the first

heretofore have furnished France with sufficiently
just cause for making War, which she would bever
have•undertaken with the intention of uniting both
the Skilies to the French Empire.
The Italian and the Ligurian Republics, and
Kingdom of Etruria, shall not cease to exist as intie.
pendent States, and certainly it is not probable that
the EMPEROR should, at the same rime, aa in con.
tradidion to rite duties resulting from the power
which he holds from the Assembly of Lyons, and
forfeit the personal honour which helms acquired,
by twice restoring to independence the States which
he had twice conquered.
As to Switzerland, it may► be asked, what pre.
vented its being united to France before the Ad of
Mediation That Al, the immediate circa of the
cares and thoughts of the EMPeRon., restored (ran.
quillity to that people, and will guarantee their in-
dependence and their safety as long. as they shall
preserve this egis unbroken, by not sub,tituting,
in the place of the elements that compose it, the will
of one of the constituent barites, or of one of the

parties. '
If France had intended to unite Holland, Hol-
land would have been French as well as Belgium. If
it he an independent State it is because France felt,
as well with regard to that. Country as Switzerland,
that their local situation required a separate ex.
istence and a particular organization. • The conjec.
tures respening Hanover are still more absurd.—
The accession of that Province would be one of the
must fatal
,presents' that could be made to France ;
and it requires no great reflection to perceive that
Hanover would become the subjed of jealousy
between the French People, and that Monarch
who slimed himself the friend and ally of France,
at that period•when all Europe had conspired against
her.

To retain Hanover, a military establishment
would be requisite, the 'expenses of which would
exceed, beyond all propor! ion,. the few millions
produced from the revenue of that Country. Could
a Government which has made a %ititr i flee to the
principles of the necessity of a. simple and .connecled
frontier line, even to the notifications of StrasbUtgli
and Mentz, on the right bank, be'sii little enlighten.
eta as to wish for the incorpor:.ion of Hanover
But, it is said, that to the :,ces..ion of that ctoun.
try, the adv,oitage of b.. s
‘Member of the Ger.
manic Potty wrAld. he attached. 'The sole title of.
Emrestox of the FRENCH, is the best answer to
tins extravagant idea. The.. Germanic Body •is
composed'o; Kings, Dennis, Princes, and admits
of only one Imperial dignity. They must have but
an itnperfeti knowledge of the noble. -vanity of our
Country, who can believe it possible that she, would
ever consent to become one of the elements of

.a circumstance had been
compatible With the, National dignity, what could
have prevented France from retaining her rights to

session of the Pabitinate gave her I • We say also,
with .a sentiment of .honest pride, that nobody can

No, France will never pass the Rhinel and her
Armies o
will
never cmbat at the other side of it,
unless it should be required by the safety of the
Germanic Empire, and of those Princes wholiave
inired her with snch regard, by their affefflon for
her, and their utility in the hal.incc of Europe.
Ti those reports be the offipriog pf ittietie,s, they
are sufficiently answered. _

•
Bat if they owe their origin to the restless :ra.
lousy of some other Powsts, who:unceasingly cry
out th.it France is ambitious, to conceal their tiwn
ambition, they require another answer. • Thanks to
two Coalitions successively .formed against us, and
to the two Treaties of Campo Formio and Lune.
tr.jille, France has not contiguous to its Territory
any Province that it slituild wish to keep ; and
if, in the course of past events, i4ie has given
proofs of a moderation unexampled id history, she
has' derived this advantage from 'it, that hence.
forth she will not be unier the necessity of ,taking
up arms.

Her Capital is situlted in the centre of her Emn.
Aire; her Frontiers are surrounded by amill States,
which complete her Political System : Geographi.
Bally ate has nothing to

neighbours; 4be is, therefore, not in a state of hei-
tility with any Power ; and as .there is not, with

regard to her, neither artother Finland, nor other

lines of the river Inn, she is in a situation far dif.

ferent from that of ally other Power.
To keep pace with those reports, the °hied of
