Ysasrday Msaage from His Majeffy
was delivered TO both Houies OF Parlia-
ment, announcing his intention to call out
the Militia.
Two PRESENTATIONS were mued YET
terday afternoon; the one for eneou-
raging Seamen and Landmcn to enter
themlelyes on board his Majsfy's lhips
of war and the other for recalling and
prohibiting Seamen from lerving foreign
Prices and States, and for granting re-
wards TOR discovering fach fesmen as ihall
conceal themfelves.
Mr.. Wickham gave notice in the houfe
Of commons yesterday, of his intention 70
move this day, for leave TO bring in a
bill TO regulate the mode Of calling out
the Militia in Ireland. The Militia Ef-
tabliihinent Of that part Of the United
Kingdom will be emerged, 70 as TO place
a Comfortable addition Of effective force
at the diipoltion Of Governnent.
Afyfrm, which has long been digefed,
has been completely prepared for arming
the country from che end OF it to the c.
Their. We do nor fappof. thar His
Maicay's Minifers will feel il necenary
to carry it into execution Immediately,
having 70 large difpofeable force at their
command. But we undcrfand that the
nature OF this fyRem is luch, that fhor,
period only would be necefary TO make
the whole country zn armed nation. This
is indeed TO be vigorous.
Yeacraay Gen. Andieofis M. Schim-
melpenninck, and the Spanih Miniaer,
waited on Lord Hawk elbury, at his of
flee, and Dad conference with his Lord
lhip upon the meafures and preparations
now making by this country. Soon after
the conference each of the Ambafadors
dispatched courier to his REFLECTIVE Gov
ernmens.
Ten thonfand additional ieamen are to
be voted to day by Parliament and it
is probable thar ione debate will take
place in both Houiss upon the State Of the
Country. Ten additional fail Of the line
are to be put in commillion with all polli-
bic ipeed. In fortnight, we have no
doubt, that 90 fail of the line, completely
equipped, viii! be riding in our ports.
10 all probability fleets of obderyation
will infAntly be feni our. Lord Mellon,
of courfe, will have the command of one
Of them. II is very fortunate circum-
Rance that various caufes have delayed
the falling of the French fquadrons i'll the
ports of Eelvoe,Guys and Dunkirk. The
Louifana expedition has been delayed,
6ra, by the failure OF Hcule at Paris,
which had the contract for iupplying it
with neceGaries; and iecondly, by tie
froa, which fet in with great feyerity in
Holland. Our correspondents at the Hague
has informed Us that il is to fail the end
of this month. But if theie preparations
in the French and Dutch ports have given
canie of jua alarm and futpicion to Our
Minifers, they will not of courfe, we
