AMERIC•N INTRICOURSI SILL.
On the quellion being put fcr going into a Com
mittee on this Bill, fume objeßicns were made by
Mr.EDEN and Lord HOW I CK to the paffing of this
Bill in its prefent form, whild a law of the United
States was in exidence for the non-importation of
Britilh goods for a limited time. It was, therefore,
neceffary that a claufe (hould be infcrted in the Bill,
empowering his Majefty to,fufpend its operations fo
loon as it lhould be found that America declined to
fufpend her Non-importation Laws. At all events,
it was not a very agreeable thing to pafs fuch a law
sfsthis, with foci a menace over our heads; but the
hifpending power ought to be vetted in his Majelly;
The, CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
Paid, he thought the Honourable Gentleman and the
! Noble Lord exaggerated the difficulty, snore than
was receffary. The objeftions might have Come
weight, if the Bill were intended to be pallid for
any length of time, in which cafe a fufpending power
might be necelfary ; but it would be wrong in ns,
pending a treaty, to fuppofe that the American Go•
vernment will immediately ad on the infant the Cul-
penfion of that prohibition take: place. At all
events, the fame objeftion elided at the time the Bill
originally paired, under the late Adminifiration.—
If however, on further confideration, fuch fufpend-
ing power fhould be thought necelTary, it might be
adopted during the progrefs of the Bill.
After a few words from Lord HOWICK, in ex-
planation, the Houle went into a Committee on the
Bill, in which Mr. Role introduced a provifo, grant-
ing a power to the King with the advice of his Privy
Council, to fufpend the faid Aft, or any part thereof,
it it fhould be found necelfary. The Aft to continue
in force foi fix weeks after the expiration of the next
1 &Mon of Parliament.
i The Houle was refumed, and the Report ordered
to be received to morrow.
• A Report of the Dublin Paying Committee was brought up,
I read, ay.ti agreed to, and a Bill ordered to be'brought in thereon.

day afternoon, but they are not underftood t. have
brought any intelligence from the feat of war fo Mite
as the accounts received by the mails.
N.) farther intelligence relative to the battle has
been received through any other fource, fo that we
are (fill unable to determine the extent of the admit.
rages gained by the enemy.. We find that there is
a letter in town from Koningfberg, of the date of
'the 17th, but it is thought to be mifdated by rose
mißake. It (peaks of an adlin which terminated fa.
vourably to the Allies, but does not mention the day
on which-it took place, and therefore may refer to fame
movement previous to the 14th. If there be
.no mit
take in the date of the letter, it is, however, hardly
poffible that they could be uninformed at Koningfberg
even on the 16th, of the refult of a battle fought at
the dillance of only five German miles on the 14th;
fo that it h certainly poflible the aelion of that day
may not have been nearly fo difaßrous to the Allies,
as the French accounts indicate.
Our Readers will recolteft that our Hamburgh
Correfpondent (fee the fires of Wednefday) Rated
that accounts had been received there of another
battle on the I:stli, 'in which the, French claimed the
advantage ; that the intelligence had been tent by
M. BOURllmmae to the New Gazette Office for pub.
lication, and bad afterwards been withdrawn. Other

letters which we have hi= fern fate the fame fait,
and it is an important one, if correct; for the French
are generally not flow in announcing their vitiorics.

FOREIGN JOURNALS.

Since writing the above, we have received Puit

Journals to the agthr and Dutch to the Ada ult.—.
Our feries h not complete; but it is a fingular aad
remarkable faa, that in none of them do we and
any reference or allufion to a battle on the 14th.
The Paris papers of the 25th, and the Rotterdam
Courant of the zyth, contain fame details refpating
military op:rations; but they do not bring them down

later than the loth, and, confequently Rate nothing
with which we areinoritlready acquainted. In fad,
they prefent nothing worthy of a place in our columns.
What are we to infer from all from all this ? Is
•,.
there foch a Paper aaually lit ezalence as 71t Royal
Hague Courant f or was thir•Paper under that name,
which was fent to this country% .a mere forgery ?
Let not our Readers be furpriferkat our afking fuch
queßions, for we frankly acknowlege that the &pa '
Extraordinary Courant, of the 25th ultimo, is the
only one we have ever heard of. We did not, on
that account, queftion its authenticity, as it sp•
peared probable that Holland, which bad be-
come a monarchy, might adopt fuch a title to
a newfpaper. But on the other hand, if the paper
alluded to, be a forgery, bow came fimilar accounts
to be circulated at Hamburgh on the 224 ? We can•
not anfwer this queflion but by admitting it to be
poffible that the plan of deception has been more
widely arranged than it is eafy to conceive to be
poffible—and Yet it is a curious fait that the Fiench
Agents at Hamburgh had found it neccfrary to with•
draw articles relating to this battle, which had beta
ordered for publication, and that no official account
of it bad been received in that city on the z4th.
We do not with, on a matter of filch moment, and
where fo many doubts prcfent themfelves, to hazard
an opinion of our own ; but we owe it to our Readers
to Rate every fad in our power, to enable them to
form a judgment for themfelves.
The Paris papers contain Come nonfenfe about
Buenos Ayres and Monte Video. According to
thefe accounts the Spaniards have attacked and de.
feated the Britifh in Monte Video.—We need only
add, as a complete contradiftion, that this. is Rated
, to have taken place on the t9th of February. Our
ha dire& accounts from that place come down to
the end of March:
