CIVIL LIST.—COPY of TREAsI7RY MINUTE, dated

February, 1816.

My Lords are of opinion, that towards making good the
Deficiency of the Civil List on the sth January last, the 3 per
Cent. Stock, now standing in the names of Mr. Harrison and
Mr. Litchfield, and which was transferred to them as Trustees
for the Crown, in virtue of a Siva Manual Warrant of 24th
August, 1815, the same having been decreed to his Majesty in
right of his Crown, as the undisposed Residue of ----
Trouthack, Esq. deceased, who died without heirs, should be
sold, and the proceeds of such sale paid into the Exchequer
to the account, of his Majesty's Civil List Revenues. My
Lords are also of opinion, That it is right and proper that
out of the Droits of the Crown such a sum should be paid
into the Exchequer to the account of his Majesty's Civil list
Revenues, as, together with the Sum to arise from the sale
of mh ntinue.l, will be fully sufficient to dis-
charge the estima•ed amount of the Deficiency of the Civil
List to sth January last.

The Earl of Liverpool and the Chancellor of the Exchequer
having also represented to the Board, that his Royal Highness
the P►iuce Regent has made considerable additions to his re-
sidence at Brighton, his private property, both by additional-
buildings and by purchase of land to annex thereto; they
are of opinion, That it is just and reasonable that an aid
should he afforded out of the said Droits, to the privy purse
of his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, towards the dis-
charge of the expellee incurred by his R., Highness in
making these additions to hia residence at EH:4l)ton, his pri
rate property: and they are theref•►re pleased to direct a
warrant to he prepared and submitted to his Royal Highness
the Prince Eeent, for issuing; to the Right Honourable
..11'Malion, the Keeper of his Privy Purse, the sun) of Twenty
Thousand Pounds o►► this account.

The Earl of Liverpool and the Chancellor of the Exche-
finer having also tejresented to the Board, that an expence
has been incurred in providing furniture for the additional
buildings at Brighton ; and it appearing to my Lords that it
could not have been in conte►nplation that the extraordi-
nary expence of furnishing these additional buildings be-
longing to the residence of his Royal Highness the Prince
Regent at Brighton, as his pr;vate property, should he a charge
upon the Civil List; they are of opinion, That a sum not
exceeding 50,0001. should be appropriated out of Droits,
to discharge these expencts : but as this furniture, though
not provided" through the department of the Lord Cham-
berlain, must he considered !►s belonging to the Crown,
they are of opinion that the account of the cxpences actually
incurred should be submitted to the examination and con-
troul of come perso►► or persons to be appointed by this
Board, and that no bill should be paid which should not be
deemed by such person or persons to be just and reasonable ;
and that the person or persons to be appointed to this ser-
vice should mahe out an accurate list or inventory of the
whole of the Furniture so provided, or of any other Furniture

We received this morning tl►e Paris Papers of
'Monday last. The King I►eld his usual Court on
Sunday, which was attended by the Mini,ters,
the Mai slials, a great number ut Peers, Deputies,
and Pubiic Functionaries. The following are

" PARIS, MAY B.—An event which appears to be
of the greatest imput sauce took place on Saturday
night. We (G,izeite Fttince) can guarantee theau-
thenticity of the details.- The Count Angles, the
Pletect of Police, having been intorwed that a
new explosion was to be prepared last night, near
the windows, of the Duchess de Bet be pro-
ceeded, at ten at night, to the Thuilleries, to
the apartments of Marshal Macdonald, 11,lajor-
Gieneral on duty, aft er having adoptetithe necessary
preeautiens to surpliZe the waletactor in Ilagrunte
delielo. At a quarter past twelve a man made his
appearance very silently at the wicket of the Rue
de i•Echelle, and placed (bete a Petard, containing
one or two pounds of powder ; at the IllUfflcnt
of his departure, by the aid of a lighted segar,
he ignited the match ; the P.,lice agents theu
precipitated themselves upou and seized
The brave soldiess of the Royal Guard
ran to the spot in consequence or the noise ;.
their indignation was extreme, and the Police
agents had some difficulty at 6rat in making them-
selves known to them—on reaching the guard-
house, the wretch cried out, ant lost,' dud tell
imensible. Vu recovering he wits iutrtrug.,ted j
his name is Graviers ; he was formerly au
°Meer in the sth Regiment of Lancers ; he
is a little ill'itmking man ; he had about him
copies of a horrible verse against the Royal
FAmily. Yesterday morning at EliX o'clock, in
coiesequence of the di,closures made by Gre-
viers, three persons were arrested, one of
whom is a mail courier named Bouton. The ex-
cellent arrangements made by ;llarshal Macdonald
contributed essentially to the appetteusion of
Graviet s.

" Fur some time (says the Journal de Paris),
this individual has been watched by the Police,
and it is to the wise measures concerted by au-
thority that we owe this important arrest.

"'flee Duke d'Angouletne,who arrived at Lyons
on the 4th inst., did not make a public entry, and
cleclintd the honours which it was proposed to
pay to him. His Royal Highness was to remain
there till yesterday.
The Duke Decazes is still at ,Lihourne.
" M. tic Blacas, the French Ambassador at
Rome, will, it is said, return in a few days to
Pat is.

" The Emperor of Austria was to set out on
the sth inst. to proceed to Betlin, where, about
the 121 h, be is to have an interview with the Em-
peror-of Russia and the King of Prussia, on the
bobject of questions which have not been decided
by the Congress of Vienna.
" YRuN, NIAY 1.,--There is nothing important
from Madrid by the courier who arrived this
morning. A Royal dectee orders the raising a
Militia consisting of persons lrom 18 to 50 years
of age. It is said that.the troops of the line will
be disbanded, and that the officers will be ittcor•-
porated with tl►e Militia.
" All "the official dispatches which arrive at the
Capital from the Provinces state, that the Con-
stitutional system is every where making progress.
Patriotic societies are forming even in the' vii.
lages.

CONGRESS, Arm E. 7.

" NAvIGATIoN BILL.—The Senate resumed the
consideration of the Bill supplementary to the
Act concerning NavigatioO. .Mr. BROWN stated
that, in framing the the Committee of
Foreign Relations had conformed it to the instruc-
tions of the Senate, as contained in the Resolu-
tions introduced by Mr. KIUG ; but it appeared to
him that' the object of the Bill would be more
effectually- attained, and some trouble saved,
in perfecting the details of the reported Bill, if the
existing law were re-enacted with the additional
features which this Bill proposed, the pre&:ent
Bill being merely an extension of the plinciples of
the Act of April, 1818; Mr. B. therefore offered
an Amendment, which seas substantially to re-
'enact the povisions of the existing Act, and to
evend it so as to apply to all the ports of the
British West Indies, the free ports as well as
those %hick have been closed. This Amendment
Was supported by Mr. KING, who added a few
remarks to what had been submitted by Mr.
B:towN, its explanation, which was chiefly to
render the Bill less ambiguous or doubtful than it
might be its its original shape. The Amendment
Was adopted without objection. Mr. PARROT,
after a few remarks, to slew the propriety of his
motion, proposed so to amend the Bill as to ex-
temd its provisions to tdl ports and places its
Upper or Los.% er Canada, but iubsegnen:ly
changed it, so as to apply to Lower Canada only.
The Bill was then• postponed to Monday.

faires of the King of the Netheildtitts has left
Washington, and will embark at New York on
his return to Europe."

It, has long been the known and determined
object of this Paper to resist the demands of
insomuch that THE SUN has been styled
" The Parson's Paper," on account of the Many
ruhniiable Correspondents which the subject has
drawn forth, whose communications have exclu-
sively appeared in our Journal. As we per-
ceive that the Papists resolutely persevere, and
will not be satisfied with the possession of
an unlimited toleration of their Religion, we.
call upon the Members of the Protestant
Church, and more particularly the Protestant
HIERARCHY, to -be equally resolute and per-
severing iu resisting their claim to Political
Power. Notwithstanding the ROYAL DECLA-
RATION delivered - by his MAJESTY from the
Throne, usual at the beginning of a Reign, and
which we inserted on tlonday last ; notwithstand-
ing the peculiarly impressive and solemn manner in
• which His MASESITY delivered that most important
Declaration, a Declaration essential io the security
of the National Religion, as if be wished to
manifest to the world at large that nothing
should induce him to bring time Protestant Church
in danger by any concession of Political Power
to PAPISTS, we find that nothing can deter them
from the pursuit of their favourite object, the pos-
session of that Power.-- We find that, 'in pursuit
of that object, an Address wasiesterday presented
to his Majesty at the Levee, front the British Ro-
man Catholics, imploring such concessions as
would 'be a violation of that SACRED. OATH
which his MA3BSTY is to take on the ensuing CO-
RONATION, as a solemn assurance to his People
that he will never consent to any thing that,
can endanger THE SECURITY of the CONSTI7
TUTION in CHURCH and STATE. The Addressers
acknowledge that " even the most private ex-
ercise.of their religious duties no longer sub-
jects them to sanguinary punishments."—What •
could they possibly want if a participation in
the Political authority of the State were not now
the sole object of their ambitious persever-
ance ? This very toleration perhaps may be deem-.
ed too great, for in " the most private exercise
of their religious duties they may, as indeed 'they
do, consider it as an essential, duty to make con-
verts to their faith, and consequently to endea-
vour to sap - the fotindation of the Protestant
Church. We therefore not only c all upon • the
Hierarchy, and all the subordinate Members of
the Protestant Church to come .foret-ard with in.
defatigable zeal, in support of that Church, but
upon all Members of Parliament in both 11051'5,
at this awful..and interesting crisis, when the ene-
mies of our national Religion are preparing
again to enter the field, anti have endeavoured
on this occasion to enlist the SOVEREIGN in
their Cause. Our columns shall be open to
their. communications on this viral subject. We
have recently introduced in our Paper many strik-
ing isaasages from the Letters of BEITANNICUS,
understood to be written by a loyal and learned.
Layman of Leicester, which first appeared
in our Paper, and have been recently
cud-
lected.in the form of a pa inphlei,. and we deem
it our duty to take fartht-r notice of that excellent
work, which contains the soundest argtiments, the j

111!)3i ilijitfdlto;l3, an,l ;rreii-3,4
gable facts in opposition to Popish Ambition.
We refer onr Readers to a Letter in Tus SUN of
this day, signed ANTiPAPA (see our fourth page),
from a respectable Correspondent, whose cow•
monications we have before inserted. The subject
is of the utmost importance to the safety of the
State, and they whose duty it is to come fore
ward on so moment.ous an occasion will be guilty
of the most reprehensible neglect if they do not,
and will be responsible for whatever danger may
befit! the Country, if it were possible that POPERY
should be permitted to have any share in our Led.
gislative authority.
