GRANT TO MR J. MALCOLM.

The CHAIRMAN (Hon. Mr. amp:sum) stated,
that the business before the Court was to take into
consideration a resolution of the Court of Directors
for granting the sum of 50,000 sicca rupees to Sir J.
Malcolm, with interest at the rate of 8 per cent. from
the time of his leaving India. Sir J. Malcolm had
been for the space of twenty years a faithful and me-
ritotious servant of the Company, during which time
he had been employed in a variety of honourable and
-laborious situations. He should, therefore, without
any further observation, move that the resolution of
the Court of Directors should be confirmed.
Mr. Huate said, it had been stated, that Sir J.
Malcolm had sustained various losses, amounting to
125,000 rupees,* the items of which ought to have
been given. The present motion was the first of the
'kind since the renewal of the charter, and great cif'',
cumspection should be used in establishing a prece-
dent, though to the individual grant it was impossible
that any objection could be made. There were papers
on this subject before the Court, which he feared
many members had not read, though they ought to
have been read by all, as they contained testimonials
of the highest importance. He could have wished
that that part of the motion which related to losses
sustained, and to expenses incurred, had been left
out, as for those he conceived that Sir J. Malcolm
had been indemnified: though the grant in itself was
trifling, and one to which no opposition . would be
made. But an arbitrary sum should not be named
without specific statements ; neither ought interest to
be allowed, as none was allowed abriaad. The pre-
cedent might be dangerous. He himself had a claim
upon the Bengal Government for 50,000 rupees.—
Now, should this precedent be laid down, he might
letthis sum lie over, with a view of obtaieing
rest upon it, when any of his friends came into poweite
A door would hereby be opened for partialities and
favour ; and this being the first case of the kind, of
proper rule should be laid down, honourable alike to
the givers and to the receiver. He hoped no objec
lion would 'be made to leave zut the words 44 losses*
sustained, and expenses, incurred ;" and also that
pert of the motion respecting the payment of interest;
And to substitute the sum• of £7OOO i►► lieu of the pro-
posed grant. The Honourable Proprietor accord.
ingly moved an amendment, importing that the Court
granted the sum of 47000 to Sir .T. Malcolm, as a
testimony of their approbation of his services. In
moving this amendment, he begged leave to state'
distinctly, that no man estimated more highly the
services of Sir .T. Malcom, the remuneration of which
he thought had been too long delayed.
The CHAMNIAN stated, that Sir J. Malcolm had
been moved nine or ten tire_•: from the place of his
residence, which had necessarily been attended with
much expense ; a ship also which carried his bag-
gage had been lost, and no charge had ever been
made for it. The recommendation from the Govern.
ment of India, in consequence of which the grant
had been proposed, had been given in 1806; and in
consequence of the date of the recommendation, it
had been intended to grant interest,
Mr.KINNAIRDSMITII approved of the amendment.

The CHAIRMAN said, that the sum proposed by the
Honourable PrOinietor was different from that pro-
posed by the Olin;

_
Mr. Hume observed, that k might be brought
within £lO of it.

Mr. Ga.ol. (a Director) differed from the Hon.
proprietor, and this be might do without any suspi-
cion of being biassed upon the subject, as he had
wished to remit Sir J. Malcolm's claims to be consi-

dered by the Government of India. The Court of
Directors had gone into all the details, and he crusted
the Court of Proprietors would see no'reason to alter
the resolution. The present grant was intended to
cover all demands ; and as in many cases it was im.
possible to draw out all the item:, it was necessa►y the
whole should be lumped. As a lose had been sus-
tained icon► payment having been delayed, it was
thought but lair that interest should be paid.
Mr. Humr, in explanation, stated that he had pro.
posed the grant to ue A:7000, Wing. £65'.10 for the
principal, :old reslo for interest at 6 per cent. (which
was all to which he was entitled, as the India Go.

verumeat paid no more) from, the time of his leaving
India, making in all £OlO, and coming within £lO
pf the sun► proposed by the Court of Directors.
Mr. PtummEa oppaaed the amendment, and wish-
'ed to support the Court of Directors on the ground
Or principle ; asibiamendment, and not the original
resolutiOn, tended to establish a dangerous precedent.
The view taken by the Court was perfectly correct.
air J. Malcolm had suffered lows, and some loun-
: dation must be laid for a grant of this miture. Witt"
respect to tl.e question of interest, 'be thought the
Court competent to decide.

' Mr. LossYND!..s thought the amendment very proper,
and saw no reds' n why 8 per cent. should he paid
here, when 9f. er cent. only was paid in India. lie
was of opinicn that a bye-law should be enacted to
enforce a more numerous attendance when questions
of this mitus e were to be discussed ; and also that
more care should be taken of inserting the notices
correctly in the newspapers, as he had seen in one
:paper the sum preposed to he granted stated at
'ACSO,OOO, and in another at 50,000 'ado of rupees.—
:The establishment in India was said to be very ex.
peniive; and they ought to take cue, lest while they
were stopping the spigot, the liiitior shOuld run out
at the: bung-hole. :

THE BISIIOPRIC Or BRISTOL
The Archbishop of CANTERBURY having
moved the third reading of the Bill for annexing a
certain valuable Hying in perpetuity to the above See,
Lord REDESDALE proposed the introduction
of a Clause into the Bill 4 which he said would go to
augment the revenues of the Bishopric in question in
a much less exceptionable nay than the mode pro.
posed by the Bill. He admitted that the revenues of
the diocese were so small, not exceeding at an average,
he understood, seBoo per annum, that it was highly
proper they should be augmented. The proposed
measure would, he thought, operate in derogation of
the rights of the parochial clergy; but what was pro.
posed by .the Clause, which was of considerable
length, and the nature of which he described to the
House, would go more effectually to augment the
revenues of the See at given periods, and have the
further beneficial effect of rendering the income or the
See more certain and equal in its amlunt ; which,
from circumstances, had hitherto been very fluctua-
' tint.: and uncertain. He concluded by moving the,
introduction of the Clause.
The LORD CHANCELLOR, after applandist
the feeling and liberality of the most revered Prelate,
,who proposed such a desirable addition to the reve-
nues of the See, expressed his disapprobation of in-
troducing such a clause as that proposed by his Noble
and Learned Friend, especially on so late a gafe al
the third reading of the Bill. Such a propoiotipO,
which went to an alteration of the Mode id which the-
revenues of the See were in future to be collected, he
observed, may perhap; be properly made the subject,
of a separate Bill, but could not, with propriety or•
adiantaget be made a part of the measure then PA-
pder consider.stion.

. _
Lord 'REDESDALE woke hi explanvidn, and
urged his former argument, that the proposed mea.
sore would trench upon, or operate in derogation of
the rights of the parochial clergy ; what he proposed
would go to increase the revenue in a regular, and,
as tar as circumstances would admit, beneficial man.
ner. The expedient in question he deemed impro-
per ; but op account of the poverty of. the See of
Bristol, he did not oppose it.
The Archbishop of CANTERBURY argued
strongly against the adoption ot the Clause, and
added, that th present Diocesan of Bristol, who was
prevented by ill health from attending, was decidedly
adverse to such a plan. Ht agreed the mode pro-.
posed by the Bill may not be the best way for egg- '
diming the fevennes in question, but under the
circumstancq of the case it was, perhaps, the only
practicable way : for his part, he could contribute
to such a desirable object only by such means as
were in his possession.—(l4e,sr; hear).—He Wished
the Noble Baron uoald consent to withdraw his pro.
posed Clause.
Lord REDESDALE replied, he should prefer its
rejection to a withdrawing it on his parr.
Lord HOLLAND spoke decidedly against the
adoption of the Clause. He by no means agreed
with the Noble Baron in his objection to the measure
in question, and complimented the liberal candour
and generosity of the most Reverend Prelate who
originally proposed it.— (Hear, hear).
The question was then p.a. Tie proposed Clause
was rejected,' the Bill read a third time and
passed.
Lord BO RING Dox notilied his intention to move

Til.E EVENING sirAV

THURSDAY, JUNE 23, 1814.

It is now no secret that the negociation respecting
sr projected Marriage of the PRINCESS CtutatorrE of
WA's., is, for the present, broken off. On this sub.
jeit an interesting Correspondence is understood to
twee lately taken place between some Hightail Er-
alted Personages. The ►ast letter, it is said, was front
the PRINCLESCHMILOTTE to tl14! Earl of LIVICRPOOL.
Wis possible that something may transpire on this im.
portant topic in the course of the discusoun which is
espected to come on this evening.

The intelligence which we daily receive from Spain
continues to be of a mixed character. On the 4th
instant the KING issued a Decree for the punishment
of those Officers of the Spanish• army and navy, who
had sworn allegiance to, and followed the fortunes of
the Usurper JOSEPH.

By this Decree, all military Officers down to the
rank of Captains are banished for life, with their
wives and families ; the wife during the lifetime of
ber husband ; but the children under twenty-one
years of age are not included. The same rule ap-
plies to such Captains as are supposed to have acted
under the authority of their Chiefs. All Civil Au-1
thorities, from the Counsellor of State down to the
Commissaries of War, partake of the same fate (with
their families) as military Officers holding rank above
that of a Captain.—And all other Civil Officers who
received salary under the Government of King
30MM are declared unworthy of holding any situa-
tion under the Crown.

By another Decree, as we are informed, our illus-
trious Ws.LtatloTos has been solemnly confirmed in
all the titles, honours, and emtiluments, which the
Cortes had so generotisly and so justly showered
upon the Deliverer of Spain.
So far as.this intelligence goes, it. is highly grati-
fying, and the feelings from which such decrees have
emahated, do .honour to The heart of the restored.
Sovereign. Of a far etilierent dial-Acta., however, is;
another report stated in 'private lettere froarthe Spa -
nigh. capital, but which we trust will prove unfounded.
The most patriotic Members of the Cortes and the
Editors of the amiss and Redactor, men who labourcd
incessantly with thtir voices their pens, in the
great cause of the emancipation of Europe from the
thraldom of a most atrocious tyranny—these stout
and successful avengers of the wrongs and 'sufferings;
of mankind have, according to other private letters,
been sentenced to death. Again we say, we trust we
shall never have to stain our columns with an account
of tlx execution of these intrepid men.
.The Spanish Minister of the Indies has issued orders
to the DePuties from South America not to quit Eu-
rope until further orders, as a General Meeting of the
Cortes newly constituted was about to be held.

TLe Nero fori Gazzete, of the 17th of May, has the
following paragraph :.14 Yesterday morning the 17
British hostage prisoners, lately cor tined at Phila-
delphia, arrived at Pow Hook, under charge of
Lieutenant I3oucE. They are to proCeed in the steam
boat this evening for the northward."
The armistice proposed by Sir G. PrtEvosr, it is
said, has been acceded to by the Auteric in Govern.
meet, on condition of its being extesided to the sea,
as well as land. To this the General replied, that
such an extension was beyond his powers, but that Sir
ALEXANDER COCIfRANB W4S daily expected un the sta-
tion, who probably might possess such an authority.

The late Brevet NM remove Lieutenant-General
lArrNvAttp from his situ.ttion as Deputy Adjutant-
General to the Forces, which be has held so many
years at the Ucrse-Guards.

pleasant days she pissed in England : the polished

PlUNCtand all the Nobility, and the still more grati-
fying. way in which every hand and every heart in the
sums testified the beneral approbation."
Our Mal !cwr announces the sailing of seven
Russian men of war from the Don os for Portsmouth.
They will doubtless take part in the grand Naval

wardness. Yesterday a new entrance was made into

tire to rest till three o'clock yesteiday, and rose again
at eight. They sent for Mr. Escumea, the p►oprie-
tor of the hotel, and addressed him in the French
language, calling him their dear friend, acknowledg-
ing the great attentions he had shewn them, and the
comforts and excellent entertainment which they had

experienced in his house, and very kindly bade him
adieu. The Rev. Mr. SMYRNA, a Russian Clergy-
man, of Welbeck-street Chapel, waited upon Mrs.
Esturnza, and, by the commands of the Emperor,
presented her with a very valuable brooch, or for a
waistband, of amethyst, desiring her to keep it in re,
membrane of the Emperor. Mrs. Escumen ex-
pressed herielf highly honoured and flattered, and
expressed herself very warmly towards the Emperor.
Count Ottwtr, Count WortoNn, Baron Nit:Hen:a t,
Colonel Fatasu*w, and a number of Russian Gentle.
men who remain in England, attended to take a
farewell of their Emperor, and they embraced accord-
ing to the custom of their country. No person was
admitted into the Hotel yesterday morning as a spec-
tator. The EMPEROR, the GRAND DUCHESS, the D.:.ke
of OLnEmiunotr, and the Prince of WIRTEMBERG, en-
tered an open carriage of the PRINCE Reoss.r, exact-
ly as the clock at u‘k nine. As they were enuring
the carriage, a N.-Oman presented a bank to the Est-
PERnft, whirl, be handed- to a Page on the steps ; ano-
ther a (Arian presented him with a very tine rose, which
the Emvettoi: gave to the GRAND DUCHESS, and she
placed it in her bosom. The carriage then drove oft
amidst the loud huzzai of the populace. The car-
riage drove to the Tower of London, and afterwards
we understand, to Other places, and passed alonkt. Lon-
don-bridge, at half-past twelve o'clock, or. then Way
to the seat of the Earl of LI v Eavoia., at Comae Wood,
to breakfast. A man was st :tioned on liereback (41
the top of the hill at Kingstc,n, to conduct them to the
liouie.of the Noble Earl, front thence they were to
proceed to Portsmouth.
The King of Prtussia, frllowed by t;c. Princes,
left Cbtrence House at half past nine o'cha-k, in a
Royal carriage, for the Earl of LI VLItP,OL'S scat.
His Royal Highness the PRINCE It EGENT set off
from Carlton House a few minutes after nine ck,
accompanied by his Royal Brother the puke of Ca
BRIDGE 'and. General BAILEY, in his travelling car-
riage, for Portsmouth.
The ALLIED SOVEREIGNS passed 017.0110 Guild-
ford about three o'clock in the afternoon, bet: w; taco
only•thirty miles on their way to Portsmouth ; from
which place the following is a letter :
" Portsmouth, Wednesday, Four o'clock in the Morning.
" .It is impossible to give an, adeq.:ate description
of the anxiety which prevailed here amongst the
countless numbers yesterday to see the .PRINCE RE-
gENT and the Allied Sovereigns The arrivals yes-
terday formed a sort of cavalcade. The town is lae.
rally crammed : -floors are let at the modest price of
from ten to fifty guineas per week in High.stieer,
and it is considered a mark of favour to get a bed of
any sort under a guinea per night. In shot r, the town
never was known so full, and the nurneraus walks on
the parade battlements of the town may be compared
to a full Steine at Brighton in the stason. Thousands
have come from the 'western counties, even as fir as
Devonshire. Detachments of military were under
arms yesterday, and a squadron of Yeomen Cavalry
awaited the arrival of the PRINCE REGENT ( who alone
was expected) at Portsdown Hill. It was known in
the course of the day, that his Royal Highness would
not be here until this afternoon. The PRINCE RE-
GENT will reside during his stay. at the Government-
House, the EMPEROR and his sister, the Duchess of
OLDENEURGU, at the house of the Hon. C. GREY, in
tthe Dock-yard ; the King of' PRUSSIA, at General
HOUsToN'S.
, " It is not expected that the grand Naval Review
will take place till Friday. There are 60 pendants
flying at Spithead ; IS ships of the line, 13 frigates,
and the remainder, sloops, brigs of war, &c. Amongst
1 the arrivals yesterday, were the Duke of SAXE WEI-
' 11Alto Lord Forms, Lord and Lady CRAVEN, in his
Lordship's pleasure yacht, &c. Hundreds are
pouring in at this. moment, (half-past five) and hun-
dreds slept on the floor last night, not only in Ports-
mouth and Portsea, but at Gosport. Many take up
their abode in the Isle of Wight for want of nearer ac-
commodation. Post horses travel stages three and
four times to-day.
" Lord Masn.LE, and several Lords from the Ad.
mitalty, with the Secretary Mr. CROKER, are here.—s-
Yesterday the Lord High Admiral's flag was hoisted
nn board the Ville de Paris, Sir H. NEALE, and hl
Royal Highness of CLARENCE shifted his from the
Jason to the Impregnable; on which occasion saluting
took place. '1 he Duke of SAXE WEIMAR also landed
here from Cherburgh yesterday, and a Russian Aide-
de-Camp with dispatches to his Imperial Majesty."
