LIR night, in the Houfe of Commons, Mr. Wm Fr-
lIRSAD made his Motion refpeeting Lnrd Msr.vicr.s ;
but on Mr. Parr announcing that his MAJESTY had
declared his intzntion to erafe Lord ME L9l! LE'S name
from the Lilt of Privy Councillors, it was for the
prefcnt withdrawn.

Lord Gil ENVIL LI yerlerday declared his intention
In the Houfe of Lords to bring forward the Catholic
Q2eflion on Friday.

An overland difpatch was yeflerday received at
the India Route. The letters by this conveyance are
not of a later date than thofe which had previnufly
arrived ; but they afford the belt, founded hopes that
the war in that quarter will fhortly be brought to a
molt favourable termination.

The Mary, MITCHELL, from Berbice, is arrived
at Liverpool : the failed from Barbadoes on the 26th
March, in company with the Venerable, (arrived at
Liverpool) and isthe brig that was fpoke with by the
Ontario, from New York : as Rated yeflerday, the
had a Me&nger on board with diipatches who was
landed at Kinfale.

Yeflerday Major GWYNN arrived at Lord Camden's
office with difpatches from the Leeward Hands, con-
taining the particulars of the recent operations of the
enemy's fquadron in that quarter. They confirm
what we have already flared of the fafe arrival of the
Cork fleet, under convoy of the Nos 'Lyre. On
board of this fleet were 3coo troops, taco of which
.were landed at Barbadoes, and the remainder difiri-
butcd among the other Wands, which are now confr•''
tiered as in a great meafurc fafe from any ferious
danger.
It is reported, that Government have alfo received
accounts of the fafe arrival of Admiral COCHRAN/.
This report kerns probable from the time that has
elapfed fince he failed. If fo, we may foonexped tohear
of the enemy experiencing a fudden reverfe of fortune
In that quarter, unlefs, indeed, the combined French
and Spanifh fleets are gone to the Well Indies, which
is believed by many, and which teems probable from
the expedation of reinforcements from Europe, an-
nounced by the French fquadron, that has already
caufed fo much alarm in that quarter. The accounts
from North America have echoed the fame expecta-
tion, and have named Toulon as the port whence the
force was to fail—the very port whence this force has
proceeded.
Some however, think that the Brazils, and not the
Weft Indies is the objeCt of the combined armament,
and many plaulible arguments are offered in fupport
of this opinion. Others confider Ireland as the in-
tended point of attack.—But all is mere conjedure—
nothing is certainly known of their real defign.
Government have alfo received difpatches from
the Mediterranean, brought by the &pH Ls, of t 6
guns, Capt. RozENHAGVN. Their contents have not
tranfpired, but it is not believed that they confirm
the report of Lord Nstsow having gone to Alexan•
dria in quell of the French Beet, and we hope foon
to hear fatisfadory accounts of his Lordfhip's move.
penis.

We ttatcd jefterday that accounts lad been re•

teived of Sir Jonw Oana's rquaartm having joined
the Channel fleet on the 3oth ult. This news may be
relied on.

The Canada Tranfport, N 0.116, Capt.DAVI3, with
Troops, being one of the (hips which failed with the
Qlleen and Dragon, from Portfmouth, has arrived at
Falmouth ; 14 parted with them on the z4th ultimo
in a gale, and on the 27th (poke Sir JOHN INDS'S
Squadron (5 fail of the line). Sir JOHN ordered the
CANADA for England, with an account of the Toulon
fleet having got into Cadiz. Sir J. OROS'S Squadron
was then on their way to join the Channel fleet, and
the CANADA kept fight of them until the 29th ultimo,
on which day they fell in with the outward hono('
Weft India fleetoinder convoy of the NARCISSUS frir
gate, all well.
The FRISK cutter left Admiral Lord GARDNER on
his Ration lark Thurfday. It is confidently ftated
that Sir Joins ORDE raw fix more line of battle (hips
enter Cadiz loon after the arrival of the Toulon fleet.
They were fuppofed to be the French fiptadron which
had been lying at Carthagena. If the ftatement be
correit, the whole of the force at Cadiz mutt have
exceeded, thirty fail of the line. The Br:ft fleet have
made feveral recent attempts to get out, and their
number ready for aftual fervice is calculatedat twenty-
one fail of the line. The DIADEM, of 64 guns, Cap-
tain O'BRIEN, arrived on Friday at Portfmouth from
the Channel fleet ; on her paffage up Channel (poke
the MARS, MINOTAUR, and ILLUSTRIOUS, which had
failed from that port yenerday fe'nnight. They have
no doubt long before this joined Lord GARDNER.—
Every potib►: exertion is making for the inereafe of
our naval force with all poflible fpeed ; every large
veffel is to be got ready for fervice, difpenfing with
the ufual tontine of repair.

A tumour was circulated yefierday, that the Ex-
pedition under Sir James Cams had been captured
by the Enemy. The report is by no means probable,
for the French fleet left Cadiz on the loth ult. and
the Qyzza and DRAGON palled Falmouth nn the
23d following, fo that there was hardly a poesility
of th it falling in with each other.

We heard yeflerday of an attempt having been
lately made to burn the King of France, the Duke
of Aucooxame. and other members of the Bourbon
Family, in the Cattle of Mittau. We could not cre-
dit loch an atrocious tranfaetion : we find it how-
ever Rated in a late received by the Hamburgh
Mail, which wefubjoin: Other articles by the Mail

MITTALT, APRIL B.—" Yeßerday a fire broke out
about two o'clock in the morning, in the wing of the
caflle principally inhabited by the General of Artil-
lery and a battalion under his command. In a (hors
time the flames had made loch progrefs that affiftance
was nearly ufelefs. If the wind had blown from the
well the entire cattle would have been a prey to the
flames. Meas. the Governor, the Deputy Governor,
and the Members of the adminillration, (hewed them-
felves every where with the ffreatet zeal, as well as
the officers of the troops. their fir( care was to
clear away a magazine of powder, the proximity of
which was very dangerous. 4 party wall, which
feparated the molt elevated part of the wing that
was on fire, and which kept back the flames, happi-
ly arrefled their progrefs, by facilitatitg the adior, of
the engines.
,6 The Count de Latte, who had awoke at the fiat
beat of the drum, remained the wholx night on his
feet, furrounded by his Highnefs the Duke d'ANGOU•
LEME and the Officers of hts (trite. Fortunately, the
gout, which had derreafed, did not prevent his walk-
ing about and giving the necelfat y orders.
" About 5 o'clock in the morning, at the moment
when every petfon was bufy in flopping or examining
the progrefs of tlh: principal fire, a lnoke was per•
ceived iiruing from the extremity of the wing that
was on fire, precifely at the angle which joined this
wing to the body of the Cattle. On entering a final'
detached chamber they found, under a large camp
bed, a heap of ftnall billets of wood and lighted- rags
on the 'Lot.. The hoards and part of the bedflead
were already on fire, and in a moment the flames ,
would hate become general.
" This morning, Aptil 8, (make was perceived
over the apartments occupied by the Count de Litt E,
which are fituated oppofite to the wing that has been
burnt. The Chief of Police, and many others, hav-
ing gone into the garrets, found there, netr the fire-
place, an earthen pot, with the remains of fame char-
coal, burned rags, and the floor on fire ; fortunate-
ly they were able to extinguith it.
4‘ Mellis. the Governor D'Aasertrxw, and the
Commander of the Battalion of Futiliers, with one
of the principal officers attached to the Count de
LI tut, were witnefres to the new attempt, as they
were alto to the preceding one.
Unboubred proof has been given of thefe fans
by the Governor General Count de BUXHOWDPN,
who, at the firtt news of the difatler, went from
Riga to Mittau. He examined every thing himfelf,
and gave with the greates activity the neCell'ary or.
ders for the fafety of the Cattle, where every thing is
now quiet. The fire (fill burns, but only among the
rubbi(h. Only one man 101 l his life. The Comman-
der of the Futileers received a wound on his head.—
Many workmen ate alto wounded."

Mr. PITT was examined yefierday before the Seidl
Committee If the Hrufe of Commons.

Mr. TROTTER, Mr. WiLson, and Mr. TWEEDY,

DUBLIN, mAr 2.

At the adjournment of the (trotter Affemblyhehli

difmilfal of Mr. GrrrAito by Lord HA&DWICKB.

That to injure any fubJe& for the ezerclfeof this right is oppret-
