Yefteretay arrived three Hamburgh mails, be-
ing all that were due except the mail of yeller.
day, which has not yet been received. With re-
f-pea to the (tate of affairs between France and
Aullria, there journals give very little informa
tion ; they however confirm the intelligence of th,.
Daniih Minifter having fallen into difgrace a.
peterfburgh, but nothing is Paid of the part which
Pruffia means to take in the Northern Confederacy.
An article from Conftantinople ftates, that the
RuMan Ambaffidor there has interpofed in a de-
cided manner to prevent the Turks from affifting
the Britifh forces in their attack ott Egypt. The
arrival of General ABERCROMBIE at Rhodes is an.
flounced, and the fleet under Lord Kerrit is (aid
to have encountered a violent itorm.

This morning we received French Journals up
to the ph inft. Nothing official has yet been pnb-
lifhed refpeaing the conclufion of Peace, except
the (lon article already alluded to in the STAR,
announcing Mantua to have &en ceded to the
French, by a Convention figned on the 26th ult.
at Luneville. The fame thing is Rated in the
Bulletin of Luneville, in this day's paper; for
which and other extraas from thefe Journals we
refer to the preceding columns.

The rumours which for Cottle days have been in
circulation, rcfpeeing changes in the Cabinet,
acre not without foundation. Mr. Prre's Admi.
nifiration is difolved ; but we cannot add, " that
like the bafelefs fabric of a vifion, it leaves not a
wreck behind."

The Sfmtions in the Cabinet, flrange to tell,
rote out of the Union! It was neceffary for the
carrying of that meafure, that the High Church
Party in Ireland fhould be admitted to a iliarc of
power in this country, and it was equally neceffary
that certain promifes fhould be made to the
Catholics. In other words, the animofities which
were the curfe of Ireland, teem to have been im-
ported into this country, and where it may end
HIATCN only knows.
Mr. PITT, unable finally to carry the queflion
of Catholic Emancipation, finds himfelf obliged
to make a Phew of withdrawing : we fay a thew of
withdrawing, for it will be found, when the ar-
rangements are definitively fettled, that he only
retires in favour of Come friend—perhaps a rela-
tion ! and the other changes in the Cabinet will
wear fomenting of the fame complexion.—And
this is to be held as a fAcrifice to principle !—a
proof of bonen", l—a fulfillment of engagements to
the utrnoit of his ability !

Our Readers have heard that a molt ferious dif.
pute arofe, fome time before the meeting of Par-
liament, on the great point of emancipating the
Roman Catholics of Ireland, which the Marquis
CORNWALLIS and Lord CASTLEREAGH had, by di-
red inßruttions from Englark!, pledged themfelves
to obtain. His MAJESTY was advifed to refute
his confent to this meafure, and the opening of
Parliamcnt was poßponed from day to day, to
give Minifters time to come to fome underftanding
on the matter. Mr. PITT declared, that as the
faith of Government was pledged to the Roman
Catholics of Ireland on the fubjeft, and that as the
Union was carried by means of that folemn en-
gagement, it could not be difpcnfed with ; the
peace and fafety of Ireland, the continuance of the
connthion, and the moll effential interells of the
Empire in a moment fo critical as the prefent, all
demanded the performance of the promife to the
hall People.
He was, however, beaten on the quellion. The
influence of Lore CLARE prevailed, upon which fo
long ago as Wednefday fc'nnight, Mr. PITT de-
clared to his MAJESTY, that he could not be re-
fponftble for the tranquility and fafety of the Unit-
ed Kingdoms, nor could he undertake to carry on
Lis affairs, if this meafure were refufed. A great
deal of negotiation took place in confequcnce of
this ►ntimation ; and, on Friday evening, the 3oth
of January, the &win. of the Houfe of Com-
mons, as a mediator, had an audience of his Ma-
JISTY in his clofet, which Wed fome hours, in
which it was underflood that an arrangement took
Place, upon which Mr. PITT should continue to
condull the public affairs, and that the topic of
Catholic Emancipation fbould not make a part of
his MAJESTY'S Speech.
Accordingly the SefKon was opened on Monday
IaII, but on the debate that followed, and Rill more
on the divifion, Mr. PITT faw fymptoms of &fee-
"nr which convinced bim that his power was

gone. A number of the Kiric's friends were ab.
Cent ; and, out of thirty Bifhops, but eight voted for
he Addrefs. He then refolved to retire, and
tendered his refignation to his MAJESTY, but with
an affurance that he would not defert his Ration
until his MAJESTY could call to his councils men
n whom he had confidence, and who had not the
Came feelings with himfelf and others on this
particular queftion of Catholic emancipation. The
motion that flood for Thurfday laft was poftponed
at Mr. Fives defire, under pretext of a touch of
the gout; and upon that day the dilrolution of Mr.
PITT'S Miniftry took place. Mr. PITT, Mr. Du
uns, Earl Sratictit, Lord GRENVILLE and Mr.
Wilinmakr refigned ; but with a declaration that
they would keep the teals and keys until their fuc.
caws fhould be appointed.
From the following Lift of Out: and Lu, which
however we prefent only as the rough draft of the
Ai/ projefted arrangement, our Readers will be
Ale to forM fome idea of the New Cabinet :

OUTS. INNS.
Mr. PITT, (=ceded by Mr. ADDINGTON.

Mr. DUNDAS, Lord HAWKESDIJRY.
Earl Seawcaa, Duke of CLARENCE.
Mr. WINDHAM, Lord AacKLAND.

Earl CHATHAM,

Earl CLeat.

Mr. GRA/MILLI LEM} ~
1. , "
0112 inALMSBURY.
SON GOWER,

Lord GRENVILLE, Earl MACAR THEY.
MT. CANNING, Lord CASTLEREAGH•

Mr.THOMASGRENTILLE, Sir LAURENCE PARSONS.
Marquis CORNWALLIS, 1 Marquis AIERCORN, Or
Duke of KENT.
Lord LOUGHBOROUGH, to be Lord Privy Seal.

Lord ELDEN, to be Lord Chancellor.
Sir JOHN MITFORD, to be Speaker.
What the final arrangement may be, we cannot
fay with confidence; but we know from good
authority that the one firfi propofed has undergone
fome changes. According to it, Mr. ADDINGTON
was to have been Firft Lord of the Treafury and
Chancellor of the Exchequer ; but the Duke of
PORTLAND has been particularly requefted by his
MAJESTY to fill the office of Prime Minifter ; and
Mr. ADDINGTON will therefore be only Chancellor
of the Exchequer. Some reports Rate that Lord
CAMDEN will be Secretary of State for the Home
Department, the 'Earl of WESTMORELAND Firft
Lord of the Admiralty, Mr. PELHAM Secretary at
War, Lord MACARTNEY Prefident of the Board of
Controul, Sir WILLIAM Gears. Attorney General,
Mr. Paacivaz. Solicitor General; and that Lord
LOUGHBOROUGH, the Duke of PORTLAND, and the
Earl of CHATHAM, will continue in their feveral
offices. All the reit, Mr. Rost, Mr. Loco, Lord
HAWILESDURY, Mr. STEELS, &c. remain, and Mr,
PITT declares it to be his with that his friends may
all give their fupport to the new Adminiftration.
To mad} the difpofition of the retiring Mini
fters, it was remarked at the LORD Comm ELLOR'S
dinner on Saturday, that they all five entered the
Drawing-room together, after having had a con-
ference with his Lordlhip ; and it was here alfo an
flounced that Mr. PITT would not quit his place
till he had opened his Budget, made his Loan, and
moved the Taxes for the year—a bufincfs which
Rands for Wednefday the ;Bth inft. This part of the
arr. niement was farther proved by the STRAKER',
having his Levee laft night, which would not have
taken place if he had accepted the key. It is ex-
petted therefore,that this night Mr. PITT will in his
place Rate the courfe which he means to purfue in
regard to the Supply. It appears to us a moft un-
accountable proceeding that a Loan ihonld be
made by a perfon who is to raga his fituation the
next day, and who cannot therefore give affurance
to the Contraeors of the fyftem to he purfued. But
indeed the whole bufinrfs is without a parallel in
_ _

To many it will be a confolation, that in all pro.
bahility, the fame fyftcm upon which we have
hitherto gone, is to be purfued ! A new attempt,
however, is to be made, to negotiate with Bos&.
PARTE, and a pafport is to be Aced for Lord
Sr. 1-111.sa's to go to Parts. It is proper to thew
a difpofition to treat—it may help to conciliate
the people to the new arrangements !
Lct what will be the refult, our Readers may be
allured, we fhall continue to follow the fame kn_
partial conduit that has hitherto guided us.

Yellerday morning the ROYAL FAMILY went to
St. George's Chapel, where the Right Reverend
the Bifhop of Noawicn preached before their Ma-
jellies.
The Rum on Saturday took the diverfion of
hunting. The deer being clofelypurfued through
Beaconsfield, croffed the Thames at Cookham
Ferry, near Marlow. The RING and his Suite
were ferried over, and the animal was taken near
Maidenhead Thicket. His MAJESTY was on horfe-
back from nine in the morning till four in the after-
moor.
The SPEARIII of the Houfe of Commons yeller-
day evening held a Levee at his bottle in Palace-
yard, Weliminfter, at which were prefent the
