EAST INDIA COMPANY.

The Earl ot, Livettrool. moved the third reading
of'tl3e East India Company's Loan
,Bill, observing,
that ' the special 'grounds on which this application
was now made to Parliament,
_were, that a- consider-
able debt bad been incurred in consequence of the
wars iii ,i which this country was materially
- interested, and in consequence of the creditors hav-
ing an option of
,drawing Bills on the Company in
England, had 'been drawn to the amount Of
upwards of 4,000,0001.; and in addition to this, the
loss sustained by the Company E-Nil the late calami-
ties s hich had happened to their shipping, amounted
to nearly a million. •
The Earl of LAUDERDALE entered into a detailed
statement, for- the iforpos.e of strewing- the unpro-
siierous state of the affairs of the Company, and the
little prospeo there was of this. money being,repaid.
The Act or 1793 required-that the Debt of the Corn-
rot). in India should be reduCed to 2,000,0001. ; the -
Bond 1341 to Englatid.to 500,0001.; that 500,0001.
per annum should be paid to the public; and That
sumst7oUld accumulate to make up the amount of
12000,0001. as a -security for the holders of the Ca-
pital Otock.. I,,stead or this, the Debt in India had
ac:Aitriulated io 32,000,000 h t! .e Bond Debt in
Eng and to 4,000,0001. ; the 500,0001.
,unpaid to
public now amounted to 7,000,0001.; and these
1 sums, added to,..tbe 12;000,0001. made a difference,
1 'of 52,009,00 a His Lrirdship also contended, that
r it appeared from the balance paper of Stock, per
computation 'laid, before Parliament, that the Com-
pany was now 1-6,000,0001. worse than nothing.—
The Nozile Lord adverted to the late traltsaation in
Madras,- observing, that no Government ever de-
: servvd more. reprobation than_the,Aladras Govern.-
- meni, for its einidat in those transactions—a con.
&et which. in' one instance was wholly unaccount-
able, it having suspended and sent home Colonel
Boles for signing military orders by order of his su-
perior oamr, and appointed to the same situation
Colonel Sutherland Macdowall, who had signed one
half of the very s.mie orders. With respect to the
forged bonds of the Nabob of Arcot, the condua of
the,otficers of Qovernment was als2 highly rrpre-
hen•ible.

The Earl of HAnitowßY declined entering into
any detailed-'sate of the Affairs of the East India
' Company, there not beingtsufficient materials be-
fore the House for that purpose. He admitted there
had been disappointmeat, but no blatne.was im-
putable
to any one. Tbe'present sum was asked in
order to give time to the Company to bring about
their affairs. The condo& of the. Madras Govern-
ment in the late transactions *as,' he contended,
deserving of 41,e highest praise. 'The circumstance
respeding Colouti Suthetland Macdowall he bad
now heard' for the first time.' 'With respea to the
forged bonds, his Lordsltip observed, that the con-
duct of the Officers of Governtnent was wholly un-
deserving of blame.
The Earl of CLANCARTX entered, into some de-
tail, for the purpose of disproving the statements of
the Earl of LAuderdale; and observed, that the ba-
larce sheet of Stock per computation, was varying
every day, and did not' thew the profits of (he Com-
pany, which, he' contended, was proved by other
documents to have arisen, in succeeding years-lip to
last year, to h considerable amount. Government .
. had, he observed, in' the money due to the Com.
Pony, seLurity for a considerable pail of the sum
vow proposed to be advanced..
The -Earl of LAVDERPAI,E replied, and m alln-
sion to the appointment of Colonel Sutherland
Macdowall, observed, that he knew the fad of that
Officer's having signed those very orders,. for sign-
ing which Colouel Boles was suspended., With re-
sped to the bonds, he Stated, that it appeared upon'
one Of the trials 41 Madras, that the AJ.l%;ocate Ge-,
neral was in possession of one of them.
The Bill was read a third time, and passed.—
Adjourned.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN,

SIR,

In an Evening Piper of this day, under the head
of " Order of the iniended Procession 'on the Li-
beration or SirTrancis Burdett;" I observe the fol-
lowing notice '
A Deputation of the t-rlmon Council and
Livery Of London `will join the 13ocession'on Tower
Hill, in their violet gowns."
Now, I take the liberty to assert, that the above
notice.is an impudent bet on the Corporation, well
worthy the "sCity ROoker," and, can only be.'in-
tended to impose upon the good people of England„
as ,no such deputation has been appointed by the'
,Court of Common Council.

P,rrhaps, indeed (but of this I am not yet intbrm_
ecll the authority of the Court may have been su7-
perseded by the Committee appointed by the
" City Rookery," who met on Friday last; at the
New London -Taverns CheapsideS, and immediately
issued the following requisition

At a Weting of Members •of the Court of Common
Council, heal the isth inst. ((une) at the New London TA.

The following Resolutions were unanim,,usly agreed to:
That the Mersbers of the Common Council, Friends to
Liberty and Reform, be requested to attend the Procession,
in their VIOLET Guw NS. Arn the oay of the *Liberation of
Sir FRANCIS BURDETT from the Tower.

And ihat they proceed on foot front Guildhall.
The Committee meet on Monday text, at the above Ta.
vern, at-twelve o'clock.

of the public, that when the Corporation wait upon

Now, Sir, I will put it to Samuel Favell; Esl;
and the " City &Okay," whether it be consi,ilen
with their professions of reverence for the 5,)vr.
reign, to offer the very same . mark of respea.t°

This morning a Lisbon Mail arrived. The isle'

The intercepted Letters, which our Readers will
find in THE SUN of this day, are very interesting
themselves, whatever doubts may be entertained
to their authenticity,' at least as to the mullet-166'f
of that attributed to BUONAPARTE. It may or;
tainly be 'considered as a comprehensive sketch 0
his views and probable intentions, and those, passant
whiCh may excite doubt, as apparently inconsiste'lg
with the arrogance of his temper; may be reoni
ciled to it on' the score of policy ; for it is we'
'known that he can curb his feelings when they 01'
terfere with his interests. At least, if that be 01"
difficult .a matter;for him in. oral conferences, hei
may be suffered to do so when he deliberately ear'
ploys the pen. As to theother'Letter that. relatei to
the- miseries which the French endure in Speo'
there can be little reason for doubt. - The ..root

hatied of Spaniards towards Frenchmen,- before ilia
destruelion of their Government and the invasion of
their COuntry, will sufficiently account for any Loa'
sures which may be adopted to punidt so traitorous
and ferocious an enemy‘
