FROM THE PARIS PAPERS.

FROATTIFIRS or RUSSIA, JAN. 26.—The Com-
miltons ellablithcd at Riga and Archangel, for
I.quidating the debts due to the Englifh and Rid-
.n merchants, have terminated their operations,
ard fubinitted the :dolt to the College of Com-

IIAMsVR(sH,F s. z.—The Courts of Vienna,
Peteriburgh, and Berlin, have anfwered the Mini-
fltrial Notes, in which the Houfe of Brunfwick
Luneburg alferts its claim to Hildelheim, Oliva
hrtick, and Corvey. Though thefe anfwery dif
f.r from each other, it is, however, raid, that they
're fatisfaftory for his BRITAIINSC MAJIISTY, as
r:!eitor of Hanover. The French Government
F.,s. a: is believed, ',tweed with his MINIESTY On
,At•pott..

VMS**, Faa. 7..—According to letters from,
the Bannat, that country, and other frontiers of
Turkey in the neighbourhood, fuller greatly from
inundations. The Mock of an earthquake felt
at Triefle, and on all that coaft, was felt alto in
t!,e Bannat and in Turkey. We are informed
from Semlin, that while the Janniffares quit Bel-
grade in fucceffion, the molt determined are mak-
ing every preparation for oppofing a vigorous
refiftance to the troops commanded by lireaat.
Bay, who is advancing againft that fortrefs.
FaaNcuoar, Fee. 54.—1 f letters from Cuff-
rube are to be credited, intelligence of the moil
favourable kind for the Houfe of Paden has been
received from Paris. It will not only be indem-
nified for all the loffes it may have fuftained by the
ceflion on the left bank, but will receive, betides,
extenfive domains, taken from the Ecclellaftical
States fecularifed ; and this, it is faid, in virtue of
an article in the fecret treaty concluded with France
on the xoth of Auguft, 1796. Hitherto it has been
confidered as certain, that in the affair of the in-
demnities it will be laid down as a principle, that all
the States of the Empire Ihall be indemnified ac-
cording to their lofTes. No exception can be made
but in favour of Tome of the great powers of Ger-
many in the fccret articles, and confequently lit-
tle known : private treaties are not yet confidered
as fufficient to make us believe in an infraction fo
confiderable.

It is now hoped, that the bufinefs of the in-
demnities is about to airtime a more decifive pro-
grefs. M. de Hun el. has announced his fpeedy
arrival at Ratilbon, as Imperial Plenipotentiary :
he will at alai as Prefident of the Deputation: he '
will have a different charader from that dif-
played at Ratilbon by the Emperor's Plenipo-
tentiary; his (nations will be like thofe of the old'
Imperial Commillioners, during their vifits to the'
Imperial Chamber: there will, therefore, neceffa-
rily, be an-uniformity in the powers entrusted to
M. de Hoc ss, and thofe which will be received
by his fub-delegate M. D. &II RANT, whereas, at
the period of the Congrefs of Raftadt, the Pleni•
potentiary received his 'nitrations from the Chan-
cery of State, which often placed them in oppo-
fition. The Court of Berlin, by its reprefentations,
has obviated this inconvenience. What Rill con-
firms the fpeedy convocation of the Deputation of
the Empire is, that the Arckduke has charged the
Deputy of the Teutonic Order to prepare proper
lodgings for the Reprefentative of that Prince,
who is to be fent to that affembly.

PARLI4M,ENTARr PROCEEDINGS.

HOUSE OF LORDS, FRIDAY, FEB. 2&

The Appeal from the Court of Selma, Folio. Patterfom
came on for beaming; when
Mr. NOLAN and Mr. ALFEANDER Were heard for the Ap-
pellant, and Mr. ADAM and another GentOnan of the Bar on
behalf of the Rdpoodent. After which.
The LORD CHANCELLOR propofrd to affirm the Interlocutors,
and order the Appellants to pay mod. cofts.--Ordered.
Lord Nut AM preented feveral papers relative to the Civil
Lift.—Ordered to he on the Table. His Lordfhip then moved
that the coufideratioo of his Majefly's mate on the affairs of
the Civil Lift, which Rood for Monday next, be poftpooed to
Monday fennight. and that their Lordthips be funinsmsed for
that day.—Ordered.

MAWS 0, ARCOT.

Earl Morita rote, and Paid that previous to their
Lordthips proceeding to the order of the day, he
begged leave to put a queftion to his Majefly's Mi-
Miler relative to a fubjeet which had very much
interetled himfelf ; and he believed great num-
bers of the public abb. He had no doubt from
the well known politenefs of the Noble Lord op.
polite to him, that he would readily anfwer any
quenions that he might put to him on that head
in private; but he felt it his duty on the prefent oc-
cation to put the queftion publicly, becaufe he was
convinced, that the anfwer being equally public,
might tend to remove from the minds of many per.
Eons very uncafy fenfations. He meant to allude,
his Lord(hip faid, to a very important meafure
which had taken place in the Eaft-Indics, the de.
pofition of the fon of the Nabob of Arcot; this
ilep was certainly an infringement of two exifting
treaties between his father and this country ; and,
as the faith of this country was a pledge of the
bi •htll confequence, was, in his opinion, a fubjeet
of the moil ferious confideration. His Lord(hip
jilegged it to be nuclei-flood, that he did not mean to
call the flighteft or moll dillant imputation on his
Majefty's Minifters; that nothing had on this fubjeO
as yet tranfpiredfrom them ; it was equally as far
from his intention to throw any mbar:lament in
the way of Minifters, nor would he prefs any thing
on it at prefent ; he only begged the Noble Lord
would inform the Houle whether the fubjel was
under the confideration of his Majefty's Minifters,
and whether any thing would be brought forward
on it ?

Lord Hosea'. raid, that he could have no ob-
jetaion to giving the Noble Lord every information
in his power to the extent his Lordfhip had requir-
ed.—He coincided in opinion with the Noble Lord
that the fubjea was of the higheft importance, and
be could allure the Noble Lord and the Houfe,
that no determination would be come to upon it,
but on the moll ferious and mature deliberation
and invefligation. He could not, however, fit
down without obferving to the Noble Lord and the
Houfe, that the moil ferious part of that confide.
ration would be due to the point mentioned by the
Noble Lord, as to the measure being an infringe-
ment of any at-the treaties exi Ring with this country.
For his own part, he differed altogether with the
Noble Lord on this point, and thought it no in-
fraCtion of any treaty whatever.
Earl Moue profeffed himfelf fatisfied with what
had been Rated by the Noble Lord.
