EXCHEQUER BILLS.

The House went into
,a Committee on the Ex.
chequer Bilis Issue Bill.

Mr. Jon NGToNs desired to know, what quantity
of Exchequer Bills it was in the intention of Go.
vernment w issue by virtue of this Bill. The
amount of Exchequer Bills already in the marker,
was so great, that they were at a discount, and he
submitted whether it would be prudent, under such
circumstances, to enhance this evil by a further issue,
until the number already in the market should be di.
minished.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER -could
not inform the Honourable Gentleman of the pre-
cise amount that it might be necessary to issue,
but proposed to issue,' from time to time, Ex-
chequer Bills to the full amount of the estimated
produce of the War Taxes. It was impossible at
this moment to say, how far ;he immediate returns
from the Taxes would be adequate to any demands
that might arise, or to ascertaio what might be the
pressure of the demands; and on the result olthese
two considerations would necessarily depend the
amount of the Bills to be issued. It would, how.
ever, be satisfactory to the Hon. Gentleman to
know, that these Bills would not be like the Ex.
chequer Bills which were kept in the market from
year to year, but would be issued on the credit of a
fund which must sooner or later produce the means
of discharging them. The Hon. Gentleman must
also have been aware, that the discount on Exche-
quer Bills, to which he had adverted, was consi-
derably reduced.
The Bill then passed through the Committee; and
on the House being resumed, the Report was order-
ed to be received to-morrow.
IRISH AFFAIRS.

A Clerk from.the Irish Treasury presented at the
Bar (pursuant to order) an Account of the Cash
Balances in the hands of the Culleetors of the Cus-
toms and Excise in Ireland on the sth and 14th of
January, 1804, according as the same was reported
by the Clerk of the Revenue to the Irish Treasury.
—Ordered to lie on the-Table. _

Mr. COR Ry stated, that he would, on Wednesday
next, submit to the House a Motion foundtd on the
subjeet of this paper.
The Irish Customs and Excise ill wRs read a
second time, and, after a few words from mr. HAw.
,HORN) committed for to.awrrov.

On the Motion `for the committal of the Irish
Stamp Duty Bill, some conversation arose between
Colonel HUTCHINSON, the SPEAKER, and Mr. Fos_
TER.

The House having roolved into the Committee,

Colonel HUTCHINSON argued forcibly against the
Tax upon the Registry of Freeholds, as infringing
upon the right of voting.
Mr. FOSTER resisted the argument, that the Tax
was unconstituti("lal, as it was nothing more in prin-
ciple than a Stamp upon any kind of Affidavit in this
part of the United Kingdom; however, as so many
of his Countrymen deprecated this Tax, he would
abandon it—trusting that he would never be sup-
posed hostile to the poor voters, from whom it was
not his wish to extort that Revenue which he was
ever anxious to obtain from the coffer of the rich.

After a few'words from Mr. STEWART, and Mr.
MARTIN, of Galway, the Clause was rejected. The
House resumed, and the Report was ordered to be
brought up to. morrow.

Mr. FosTEa moved far leave to bring in a Bill
for the appointment of et Commission to inquire into
and ascertain the Fees and Emoluments which ought
to be allowed to certain Officers in Ireland; and also
to inquire into any abuses that do, or may have
existed in such Offices; also to devise means for the
better Colleaing and Accounting for. the Public
Money,
Mr. Cour said, that he should take occasion at
another opportunity, t'o state his opinions with re-
sofa to the condo& of the Administration of Lord
HARDWICKE, which had tended so materially to
promote the professed objets of this Bill,
Mr. FOSTER observed, that, as the Bill was a
mere measure of inquiry, it could nut be supposed
to hear hard upon an Administration which had done
its duty. As a Friend to Instice, therefore, the
Right Hon. Gentleman could not be adverse to the
Bill.—Leave given.
Mr. Fos-r Ea gave notice, that lie would to-
morrow submit a Motion with resped-iqt-itc Circu-
lation of Silver Notes in Ireland.-:-Adjourned.

SOLEM tatlli DICER& FALSUM AUDLAT ?

LONDON, 'JUNE 29, 1804.

Tilts morning arrived the Two Hamburgh Mails
that were due. The following are the principal
Articles of Intelligence which they bring.

VIENNA, JUNE 9.—The Government of the
Italian Republic has sent 'to this Court a Plenipo-
tentiary of the name of TAMBRONI, charged with
some particular Negotiations. - He has been pre-
sented to His IMPERIAL MAJESTY by the French
Ambassador, CHAMPAGNY. This audience has
given occasion to the false report, that the French
Ambassador had received his new Credentials.
It is now determined that the three great exer-
cising Carnps intended to be Formed near Pest, shall
be formed in the Plains of Turnos,, and near Prague.
Yesterday evening the discharge of cannon pro.
claimed the baptisin of an ARCHDUTCHtss,.of whom
her IMPERIAL MAJESTY had heal safel" delivered
the night before. The ceremony.was performed by
the Archbishop Count HottENWAßtli ; Duke AL.
BERT of SAXE TESCHEN stood godlcuher, on which
account the new-burn Princess-received the name of
MARIA ALBERTINE. After the ceremony was
ended; his IMPERIAL MAJESTY OCSIOWed 'tile Grand.
Cross of the Order of St. Ste.phe:n On the Archbishop,
and the Duke of SAXE TENCHEN made. her
RIAL MAJESTY a present of the value. of 4.0,000
florins. Yesterday free admission .wacallowed.. co'
every person at the two Court,Theatiei,
RATISBON, jifse tg.—The opening of the Pro.
tocol, on the subjede of the late Russian 'Note,
which was fixedfor the 18th, will not take place ; as
a Declaration relative to this objet} will soon be
given in to the Diet by the EleCtorate of Baden.
HANAIJ, JUNE 12.—The extremely important
political Negotiations now on foot, are principally
carried on by Letters between the Sovereigns en.
gaged in them, written in their own hands.

There is again a talk of a projeal of exchange, by
which the Palatinate of the Rhein and the Brisgaw
will receive new masters.

BERLIN, JUNE. i6.—The French Envoy M. LA
FOREST, has givel in a very satisfa&ory answer to
the Note lately d'elivered to him, and immediately
sent off the same, by a Courier, to his ENIP EROR.
It is understood that Lieutenant-General Prince
HAFSFELDT is appointed to carry the congratula-
tion of this Court to the newly eleded EMuEROR
of the French. He came to Berlin from•his estate
at Aller, near Dusseldorf, but the time of his de-
parture is not yet fixed.
JUNE Q.—The report that -General LAHORIE
and Citizen TREANIENES have been arrested, at the
instance of the French, at Neisse in Silesia, is entire-
ly without foundation.

NAPLES, M..
zs.—His Sicilian Majesty has
promotedthe late Minister of State, Count AcTox,
to the
or a Prince, and, as a further reward for
the s
v he has rendered to the Crown and the
State 2 114 Presented him with 6c;ne fine ;states) in

Sicily, which bring fn at.)lve 50,001
ducats. The Count has now resigned all his of-
fices, and has determined to end his days on these
Estates. He in gonsequence set out for Sicily 00
the zal of May. The King and Queen, and the
whole Royal Family, took leave of him with
great
regret. The representations of a Foreign Power
has greatly contributed to this change in the Ad-
ministration.

VERONA, JUNE I.—lt is still said that the House
of Austria will receive the Republic of Ragusa,
which has hitherto been under the protection of till
Ottoman Porte. By this the Austrian Monarch,
will obtain a new Port, which carries on a consi-
derable trade by, sea, and also the advantage of
establishing a complete communication between
Dalmatia and Cattard, in Albania, ceded to the
Court of Vienna by the Treaty of Luneville, which
communication was before interrupted by the Terri-
tory of Ragusa.

the
ITALY, JUNE 5.---The Secretary of Stare,
Chevalier NUT r, is appointed Governor to the
young King of Etruria.
The Public Journals at Milan say, that it is,
:I:
ready determined, that the First M. ; 4g.stracy.c,l to.
Italian Republic shall be rendered Heredit3rY °le
Family of BONAPARTE. But whether the tick of
President will remain, or be changed into that °f
King of Lombardy, time must shew.
MUNICH, JUNE 4.--The Envoy of the Eleet4r
Palatine at Paris, the Baron Von CErro, has alreadl
received his new Credentials, with di redions to com-
pliment the Emperor NArot, EON, in the name of
