INCOME TAX.

General LOFT, having taken a retrospective view
of the different advances made to the army, and the
comparative increase which had taken place even in
the wages of artizans, concluded with moving the
Repeal of those parts of the different taxes upon p:o.
perty, which applied to officers in the army and navy,
and to subalterns in the militia.

Mr. JOHN SMITH thought the case of the O.
cers of the Army and Navy a hard one, as it appear.
cif, that they had had more pay formerly than now.
though a sum would have been affluence same time
ag,,, which would no.v scarcely ;u:".,-ice, however fru.
gaily managed. He had heard it s.tid, that the great
motive ef the snl:ier ought to bt: htstmtir, and it would
be better that Officers should be persons ef some sub-
stance. He could not assent to the principle. Some
ef the most valuable Officers in the service had been
men of no tune, who raised themselves by their
merits ; prif it honour " had no skill in surgery," it
ecrtaaily " had none in cookery." It would pot serve
for food. He stated, •that Colonel Gray, one of his
constituents, had mentioned to him cases of peculiar
hardship in the profession from the scantiness of pay,
and, indeed, he had h mself observed many such.—
He should be sorry to diminish the revenue, but lie
earnestly recommended it to the Chancellor of the
Exeliequer, whose private character he aemircd, to
apply his mind to this subject, and to improve the
condition of the Officers of the Army and Navy,
though the necessity in the Navy was not so strong.
He pronounced an eulOgium on the character of the
British army, and particularly adverted to :he devo•
tion to their country with which they encountered al
the hardships of foreign climates—of the West and
East Indies, &c. a circumstance which, in his opinion.
had not been sufficiently attended to. He asked whe-
ther a saving to the extent of 5 or C 600,000 a-ye.tr
mieght not be made by imposing the beer tax en the
malt, and so levying both the tax on beer and that
on malt only at the expence which was now requited
to collect the latter tax ?
Lord PALMERSTONE admitted the merits of
the army in their utmost extent ; and the only ground
of objection to the measure proposed, was its impr ,c-
--ticability. The relief must come in a different way.
He controverted some of the statements of the Gal-
lant General—for the pay was formerly liable to de•
ductions, which had been laid aside, and as to the
augmentation of salaries in the Civil Departments, it
ought to be recollected that the rise was little more
than a compensation for the loss of fres which had
been abolished. He must oppose the motion.
Mr. HURST supported it on the ground that the
public faith had been pledged to the Officers who en-
tered the service before the imposing of the Propertf
Tax, that they should have their pay free from de'
diction.
Sir CHARLES POLE said that an increase sras
necessary in the Navy as well as in the Army. The
pay of some of the Officers remained at what it had
been in 1693, while the salaries in the civil depart-
ments of the Navy had been greatly increased. Tins
could not be considered as just. It w-uld be beat
to remedy the evil in time, without waiting for Pet'.
tion3 from the Army and Navy—a mode of proceed-
ing which he hoped would not be resorted to.
Mr. WHITBREAD was perfectly sensible of the
hardship of the case, and of the propriety of nog'
menting the pay of the Officers, but he could Dot
agree that it should be done in this way. When they
saw the salaries in the Civil Departments increabed

on.--
Adjourned at one o'clock.

" All vessels sailing under the American flag, and owned, in
whole or in part, by any citizen or subject of that l'owpr, that :
reckoning from the 20th of May, 1809, may have already en-
tered, or that shall subsequently enter the ports of Frazee, hei
colonies, or the territories occupied by the French armies, shal
be seized and sold, and the produce of the sale shall be deposited
In the Sinking Fund. From this provision are alone excepted
such vessels as may be charged with dispatches, or commissions,
ft oni the Government of the United States, and have no lading
nor merchandize on board.
"This Decree is issued in conic pence of an act issued by the
1 Government of the United States, dated Ist March, 1809, or-
-1 detirg: 1. That, from the 20th of May nett-ensuing, vessels
1 arriving in the United States, under the French flag, shall be
seized and confiscated, together with their cargoes. 2. That frcm
the same period, no merchandize, nor production of the so l, or
; manufactures of France or her Colonies, can be imported into the
ports of the United States, from any foreign port whatsoever.
under pain of seizure, confi=cation, and a penalty of three times
the value of the goods. 3. That it shall not be lawful for Ame-
rican vetsels to proceed to any putt of France, her Colonies, or
I dependences."
A subsequent Decree has also been issued, of.
which we have received the following abstract, in a
I letter of the 19th, from Rotterdam :
.. It is ordered that all American property sequestrated in the
newly-acquired Countries, shall be sent to Antwerp for sale;
and the produce shall be deposited in the Sinking Fund "
An American vessel had arrived at Brouwershaven,
leaded With tobacco and pot ash, and it was expected
would mad the denouncement of the above decree.

A Mail from Lisbon, arrived at FalMouth, has
brought accounts from thi former place down to the
14th instant. No event Of Mty importance had oc-
curred, and the expectation of a weedy engagement
has subsided: It was generally beliefed at Lisbon,
that the enemy had retired from his position in the
neighbourhood of Lard WELLINGTON'S army.
By the aboiie conveyance we have also received
Portuguese papers to the 13th and Cadiz to the 10th
inst. The former state, that the whole of the French
force opposed to Lord WetaaNthoN, amounts to
37,000 men: 01 theie 20,000, under the command
of Marshal NEI, have advanced from Salamanca to-,
%%raids Ciudad Rodrigo ; and 13,000 are at Astorga,
under the Duke of ABRANTES. The head-quarters of
Lord WELLINGros are at Celerico : the whole force
under his Lordship's command, consisted of i.t2 Batta-
lions of Infantry and five of Cavalry, all English,
besides 40 pieces of Artillery. The PortugUese troops
consist of 12 l3ati;ilions. The whole army is describ-
ed as being in high health and spirits ; and what is
perhaps singular, not one desertion has taken place
from the Portuguese battalions since their advance to
the frontiers:

" The small division of Regnier wanders in Estie-
maduta, where the army of Marquis Romana likewise
is ; and in Altenjo is that of General Hill ; but the
army of the Marquis de Romana has two divisions
in the mountains contiguous to Andalusia, under the
orders of Ballesteros, and another under the command
of Ca:a iwa, to the North of the Tagus:

•, Between the Tagus and the Douta are the di.'
visions of Ney; Kellerman, and Loison ; and between
the same rivers, the main body of the English and
Portuguese armies. To the North of the Douro is
the division of Junot, to which is opposed the corps
of Gallicia and Trazdos Montes. It is not easy to
know what force the Fr etch have in Old Castile, New
Castile, and the Asturias, but they must be inconsi-
derable, since we find, on the one side, Don Joaoh
Martin penetrating towards Guadalazara and Ma-
drid ; and, on the other, Mina beating the French in
the vicinity of Pampeluna and Saragos a.

The kingdom of Valencia is perfecit free, :and tbt

GENERAL ORDER.
Horse Guards, May 22.
His Majesty having taken into consideration the
very great injury which arises to the service from sol-
diers being permitted to obtain their discharges, by
proViding substitutes, and likewise the various frauds
which are practised on individuals,as well as the army,'
by those that m tke a trade of furnishing those substi-
tutes,
is graciously pleased to direct (that hereafter
in those peculiar eases which may occur) when sol-
diers of gait' character may solicit their discharges,
on grounds so stronv as to claim the attention of the
Commander in Chief., they shall, instead of providing
substitutes, he required to pay the levy-money of two
recruits of the same description ; and to be engaged
fur the same period of service as themselves ; which
money is to be applied to the general purposes of re-
cruiting the army, and accoutre: f-r to the public
under such regulations as may be determined upon
by the Secretary at war. The Commander in Chief,
therefore, directs that the Commanding Officers of
Regiments will be very careful in fully ascertaining
the grounds on which they hereafter make applica-
tion for the discharge of soldiers, on the terms before
int•n:ioned and that the soldier whose application
they sanction fall directly under the description aboed
expressed.
Commanding Officers of Regiments must, in their
application, specify the age and size of such men;
their length of service ; the nature of their engage•
meat, (whether for limited or unlimited scrvice) ;
and in the case of recruits, whether they have been
finally or intermediately approved. •
Upon the Commander in Chief's sanction being
received for the discharge of any soldier, under the
circumstances stated in this Order, the Officer com-
manding the regiment will direct him or his friends
to lodge the required sum with the Regimental Agent,
' and on receiving a certificate from the Agent that
the same has been paid into his hands, the Comman-
ding Officer is to grant the soldier his discharge.
By command of the Right Honourable the Com-
; mander in Chief. (Signed)

The AUDACIOUS, ABOUKIR, BiLLONAt BELLERO-
PHON, DEFENCE, and MARLBOROUGH, ships of the line,
nndei the command of Sir RICHARD Sraaellart,sailed
from the Downs on Sunday, on a cruize off the month
of the Scheldt.—lt is said that the French fleet has
dropped-dawn the Scheldt from Antwerp, and that
it is the intbntion of the gallant Admiral to make a
dash at theni while at anchor, should the opportunity
be afforded by the wind and weather.

The possibility if this attempt is favoured by the
knowledge acquired in the navigation of both the East
and West Scheldt, in the Lae expedition to Walcheren.

The following letter t:rotit Heligoland was received
yesterday :

" Stockholm May 1.
"Admiral SALTEIAirz hay, with his fleet, entered into the
rill of Gotten}urgh. He immediately wrote to the Comman-
dant of that place to assure him of the amicable intentions of
his Sovereign. It appears that the English Charge d'All'aires,
M. l'ovratt, does not seem to have any intention of quitting this
town."

Monday night, When the doors ofthe House of
mons were shut, we understand that Mr. BROUGHAM
asked a question, 44 Whether a report which had
reached his ear was correct, that the Charter of a
certain cloie Borough being about to expire, it was
the intentiOn of his Majesty's Ministers to advise him
to renew the voile Z" Mr. BROUGHAM was called on
to name the Borough, which he did-44 Malden, in
the County of Essex." Upon which Mi. PxRCaVAL
owned, it was proposed zy iltiniskrs to renew it. Here
the matter was dropped— for Mr. BaoUGIIAII said it
was not his nitention at present to ground any pro-
ceeding on this information but recommended it to
the Gentlemen on both sides of the House who had
expressed themselves favourable to a limited and spe-
cific plan of Reform, although they voted against
Mr. BRAND'S Resolution. Here at least one decayed
Borough might have been cut off, and two Members
granted for either, M.tnehester, Birmingham, Sheffield,
or Leeds.

The following is the answer returned by Sir
FRANCIS BURnETT to the Address voted to hint by
the Inhabitants of Canterbury :

"6 To the Freemen and Inhabitants of Canterbury, assembled
before the Guildhall of that city, 14th May, 1810."
"Towea, MAT 21, 1810.

" Gentlemen—l had the honour of receiving from *it.t.ram
FUND. Esq. and G L. WARDLE, Esq. the very flattering Ad-
dress of the Freemen and Inhabitants of Canterbury, assembled
before the Guildhall of that City, the 14th day of M-ty instant.
" I anticipate, Gentlemen, the happiest results from the warm
spirit of freedom which 1 find so generally diffused, and I am
upon the present occasion particularly encouraged from observing
that whatever differ, nce of opinion may exist upon minor points,
the whole City of Cantrrbtuy is unanimous as to the necessity
of retrenchment and reform; as in the Petition agreed upon by
the Mayor and part of the Common Council, who do not concur
with you, Gentlemen, in the honour you have been pleased to
bestow on me, they do, however, concur with you in that which'
is atone esseniti the abs 4 dote necessity of immediate reform.
