A N English Squadron, which has ascended the / m Adriatic Gulf, has detached some frigates to- cruize before Trieste. The Captains evince much animosity against the Russians and - Austrians. The three vessels of the line, and two Russian frigates, which it was thought would anchor at Porto Re, have placed themselves under the protection ef the batteries of the pier at Trieste. They have made all preparations necessary for repelling an attack, in case the English should attempt one. VIENNA, March 14. Letters from Trieste, dated the 7th, mention that the Entfli- h squadron on that eoa^ t having received reinforcements, had been cruizing for three days between Aquileiza and Trieste, and had come so close tothe latter port, tliat its force could be clearly seeji. It Consists of eleven ships, five or sis of which appear to be of the line. The wind had not then permitted them to attack the five Russian ships of the line and a frigate, which are anchored in the road of Trieste, but it is feared that the Kngii h will make the attempt, iu consequence of which the town will suffer greatly. MARK- LAKI, Monday, April 11. The shew of Wheat from Essex at an early hour this morhing was extremely small, and under that impression there was some briskness in the trade, and a few sales made at nearly the same prices as this day se'nnight; but the supply after from Suffolk and Kent proving considerable, and being farther increased by the re- turn of the greater part of the ' EtseX land samples sold last Monday, to buyers who had since furnished themselves at the country markets upon cheaper terms, the vessels not being up, a great dullness took place, and the subsequent bargains were at a decline of is. to is. per quarter, even for the best runs. Peas of both sorts are also cheaper; Barley and Oats dearer, at least for the finest sorts, the interior qualities having few buyers ; Clover Seed has fallen considerably in value, but is in good request at this abatement, which has likewise can- celled the bargains made by the land samples on Monday the 4th. Beans of both sorts go off freely, without any material alteration in the currency, which remains also mostly unva- ried m other respects.

Some French Papers have been received which state that the Gourt of Sicily has declared war against Russia. It is more probable that Russia will declare war against the Court of Sicily; for the Emperor Alexander, having entered into all the views of Bonaparte, will, no doubt, unite his efforts to those of France for the purpose of wresting Sicily from iu lawful Sovereign. An insurrection has taken place in Madrid, which seems to have been coutrivyd by the French, for the purpose of accelerating a revolution in the Spanish Government. It is stated tbat on Sunday the 13th ult. there were evident indications tbat the public mind was disturbed. Certain intelligence having been received that the Emperor of France was expected in Madrid, it was asked on the part of the King, and at the request of the Prince of tbe Peace, what was tbe abject of his journey, and whither his troops were directed to march ? ( We are not toid to whom the oaestion was put, but it is to be presumed it was to the French Ambassador.) The answer was, that be came in a peaceable manner, for the good of Ale nation, and to make a Prince happy. The King she'Ad this letter to the Prince of the Peace ( who throughout the account is styled " the Admiral") and he being aware of the blow which threatened him, prepared arrangements for escaping to Mexico, taking the Kill;' with him ; for which purpose be took a large sum out of the Royal Chest, and he had previously vested forty millions of dollars in London, and had lent sixty millions more to Corunna, to be also forwarded to London ! Some days after " the Admiral" was at Madrid, and on the fol- lowing Sunday, in the evening, he withdrew, according to his usual ca< tom, to Aranjuei, where he called a meeting of the Council, at which tba flight of their Majesties was discussed. Early on tbe following morning, ( Monday, March 14) the signatures of the chief Nobles of the Council were collected. When jt cams to the Marquis Cavellero's turn, he refused to sign, denounced 41 the Admiral" as a traitor, and convinced the King that the charge was too well founded.—" The Admiral" was disgraced, the King tfcrew himself into the arms of the opposite party; Don Diegn Godoy, brother of the disgraced favourite, in endea- vouring to support his authority, was wounded at the head at his regiment of Spanish Guards; the guard of honour • was removed from the Palaee of the late favourite, but his life does not appear to have been threatened ; he had fled, but was taken back to his palaee by a party of Life Guards, and bis wife and daughter were conducted to him. On Tnursday the 13th, it was every where proclaimed, that the Spanish troops were leaving Madrid, and that the Trench troops were coming peaceably. On the following day at eight o'clock in the morning, the koyal Family appeared iu the balcony of the Palace to tliank the people. AtJtwelve, two decrees were posted up in Madrid. In the first, the Kin^ represents the disturbance that had taken place as very trifling, and to h » ve arisen from a mistaken notion of his intention to emigrate, an error which he directs Cavallero to correct. In the second, his Majesty recommends the public to hold good harmony and peace towards the French troops, 4000 of which were expected in Madrid on the following day ; on Monday the ' Jlst Murat was expected, with a larger force; and immediately after, it was supposed the Emperor Napoleon would arrive.— In the evening of the 10th, the King published another decree, intimating, that as be intended to command his army and navy in person, he had thought proper to release Don Manuel Godoy, Prince of tire Peace, from the employs of Generalissimo and Admiral, and gave lnm leave to with- draw whither he pleased. , , t On the whole, this account is so confused, that all we can gather from it is, that the French have gamed an entire predominance in Spain,— that their partisans have the King in their hands, and will make use of him just as long as it answers tbeir purporttbat they have thought proper to lav the late favourite aside, which is a greater compliment to his patriotism than he hud been thought entitled to; and tliat the final arrangements of this revolution will be directed by Napoleon himself, who was on the road from Bavonne to Madrid.— Not one word is said of the Prince of Asturias, the lawful heir of the Spanish Monarchy! Dispatches were yesterday received at the Admiralty, from our Fleet off the Tagus, dated the 1st inst. on board his Majesty's ship Hilwrnia, 110 guns, Vice- Admiral Sir Charles Cotton. The fleet was at that date m good health. Famine has visited the wretchcd Portuguese. At the date of the la- t advices ( the 2Sd ult.) hundreds, it is said, were lying dead in the streets of Lisbon. This may tw an exaggeration ; but that the evilis extensive is proved by the ciraimsunce of General Junct having permitted a deputation of tht Portuguese ( at the head of whom was M. Michael Set aro, a respectable merchant, well known to the English) to wait ou Sir Charles Cotton, to supplicate him to suffer some provisions to come in, to save the people from perishing. Sir Charles thought a compliance with the request beyond his powers, and sent home tbe Coquette sloop for precise instructions. _ The Portuguese sloop of war Lebre had arrived off Lisbon with dispatches from the Princc Regent to the Provisional Government, which the Captain did not land, on being informed by the Admiral that the French were in possession of the country; the commercial mails were sent into Lisbon by a fishing boat; and the Lebre stood out to sea. The Prince had a remarkable fine passage of thirty- mne days, and lauded at Rio Janeiro with the other branches of the Royal Family, <> n the 8th of January, amidst the accla millions of his faithful subnets T he Proserpine frigate, with convoy from Portsmouth, arrived at Gibraltar on the 20th ult. A Malta Mail has arrived this morning with letters from Messina of the 1st of March, from Malta, of tie 5th, and from Gibraltar of the 26th. No accounts of any victory inthe Mediterranean had been received and it was strongly doubted at Gibraltar, whether the Roehefort squadron had ever gone into the Mediterranean. The Carthagena squa- dron " bad quitted the open and insecure bay of Palma in Majorca for the securer position of Port Mahon in Minorca, where thev remained at the date of the latest advices. Sir Richard Strachan had . joined Lord C'oUingwOod with seven sail of the line; and the Antelope, with four bat talions of the German Legion, had sailed for Sicily. The evacua- tion of Fort Seylla is mentioned, and that the enemy was in great force in Calabria. The Toulon squadron, consisting of five sail of tbe line, • was known to lie at sea. Saturday, in consequence of directions to Captain Richbell, the Regulating Officer in the River, a general jnpress from all protections t » k place, when the mates rom every vessel that could be spared were taken, as also • cvei'v useful person that could be obtained, and put on board the Enterprize, off the Tower.

JSPATCHES, of which the following are extracts, were yesterday received by Viscount lastlereagh, one of his Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, from Major- Genera! Sherbrooke, commanding his Majesty's troops in Sicily. MY LORD, Messina, Feb. H. 1808. AS an opportunity offers of writing to England by a private ship, which " runs without convoy, I profit of the conveyance to inform your Lordship, that his Sicilian Ma- jesty's garrrison otReggio surrendered to the French on the 3d inst. General Regnier's operations in Calabria will now, consequently, be directed against Scylla alone ; which place has been invested for nearly six weeks. He has been so fbrtuuate'as to possess himself of four Sicilian gun- boats, each carrying a 24- pounder, all of which he has landed. In endeavouring to recover the Sicilian gun- boats ( which fell into the enemy's hands, on the evening of the 30ih ult.) the Delight sloop of" war most unfortunately got on shore on the Calabrian coast. It being found impossible to get her off, she was next day burnt, to prevent her being of further use to the enemy— It is with ths most heartfelt concern I add, that on this melancholy occasion Captain Handfield ( with several of his ship's company), was killed; an. l that Captain Seccorabe, of the Glattot:, ( who was at the time on board the Delight,) was very dangerously wounded, and, with the remainder, made prisoners. Capt. Seecombe was permitted, the next day, to come over to Messina on his parole, but on the 3d instant he died of his wounds. I have the honour to be, & c. ( Signed) J. C. SHERBROOKE, Maj.- Gen. Mv LORD, Messina, Feb. 23, 1808. I HAVE found it expedient, and for the good of his Majesty's service, to withdraw the British troops from the Castle of Scylla, which was evacuated accordingly on the 17th instant; the place was immediately entered by the French troops, and it is now in their possession. On the morning of the 15th inst. Lieut.- Col. Robertson h viug informed me, by telegraph, that the parapet of the work was destroyed, and that all his guns were either dis- mounted or disabled, I i'elt very anxious indeed to with- draw the troops, but a continuance of the gale rendered this impracticable till the 17th, when, during a temporary lull, ( every necessary arrangement having been previously made) the transports' boats, protected by the men of war's launches, ran over from the Faros, and succeeded in bring- ing away the whole of the garrison, who effected their retreat by the Sea Staircase to the boats, when they were exposed to a tremendous galling fire both of grape and musketry from the enemy, till such time as they could pull out of the reach of it. I am happy to add, that the loss of the troops in this exposed situation was only four killed and five wounded, and that of the seamen, one killed and ten wounded. 1 have the honour to be, & c. J. C. SHERBROOKE, Maj.- Gen. Letter from Lieut.- Colonel Robertson to Major- General Sherbrooke. SIR, Messina, Feb. 18, 1803. AFTER being invested by General Regnier's army during s.' v - n weeks, and battered for six days by fourteen pieces of heavy ordnance, the little Castle of Scylla has fallen into his hands: but I have the heartfelt satisfaction to atld, that not one of the gallant garrison placed under my orders has become his prisoner. On the 3lst of December, the advanced workmen, and the out- posts of the masse, were driven in by three French battalions, and a detachment of cavalry, under General Millet, wh'ch took post upon the heights above us ; and on the following clay Regnier brought up two more batta* lions, and " spreading his out- posts to Favezzina, Bagriara, & e. completed the investment of the town. At this time the garrison of the Castle consisted of about two hundred British, and from four to five hundred masse occupied tlia town. Tlv enemy's troops were now incessantly employed in forming the roads necessary for bringing his heavy ordnance from Seminars, while we laboured to render the approach to Scylla difficult, and harrassed tbe French by constant attacks on his out- posts with parties of the masse, and occasionally with boats. In some of these partial actions the enemy suffered severely; particularly in a night attack at Bagnara, where the Voltigeurs of the 23d Light Infantry were cut to pieces. Owing to these checks, the French were retarded until the 6' th of February, when - they descended the heights in force, and came within a distant range of our guns ; and from this day they honoured our li'ttle Castle with all the detailed precautions of a regular siege. The force which General Regnier had brought to besiege Scylla, consisted of a body of cavalry, the 23d Light Iti- f a try, the Ist, G2d, and" 101st of the line, in all about sis thousand men; with five 24- pounders, five eighteens, and four mortars, besides field- pieces. On the morning of the 11th he opened bis batteries, directing his efforts to the destruction of our upper works, and the disabling of our guns ; while under cover of this fire, he laboured to establish two breaching batteries, at three and four hundred yards distance, it was not, how ever, till the 14th, that our parapet and guns were ren- i dered totally useless. From this time our defence was con- fined to musketry, as our guns lay buried under the ruins ' of the parapet. In the night of the 15th, tha French pushed round the foot of the Rock, with the intention of destroying the Sea Staircase, but we happily discovered thein, and beat them off with e slaughter to which their desperate situation exposed them. The fire from the broaching batteries bad been variously directed till the evening of the 16th, when they bent their undivided fury against the left bastion with such success, that the breach would probably have been practicable by the following evening. It was under these circumstances that I received your orders to evacuate the Castle, and have the great satisfaction of reporting, that we accom- plished this yesterday morning, in full view of the enemy, and without leaving an individual behind. I have the satisfaction of reflecting, that the support I have received from all ranks has enabled me to sell Scylla dear ; and that General Regnier has obtained possession of this little heap of ruins with the loss of several hundred; of his best troop?. I have the honour to be, & c. G. D. ROBERTSON, Lieut. Col. Commandant Scylla Castle.

" I have this morning captured L'Actif, lugger privateer, of Dieppe, of 14 guns. There were two other French lugger privateers in sight at the time, one of which being very near to lee- ward of us, I have every reason to expect we should have taken, but that it was necessary to examine four merchant vessels, among which the privateers were when we first saw them ; one of these, a coasting sloop, we retook ; the others had not been boarded by the privateers."

He moved that the second reading of the bill be taken into consideration on the 26th of May. Lord Holland said, he had objections to the bill, in a different view to those of bis Noble Friend ; he hoped those who ware friendly to the bill would attend on the day stated, to explain on what principles of policy or necessity such a measure was introduced. The motion was then agreed to. The Duke of Cumberland presented a petition from the Mayor and Corporation of Dublin, hostile to the claims of the Irish Catholics. The Irish Wool Export Bill, and the bill to suspend the grant of places in reversion, were brought tip from the Commons, and read a first time.— Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. MONDAY, April 11.] Mr. Alcock took the oaths and his seat for the county of Wexford. Major Palmer moved that the reports of the Com- mittees on his father's petition, for a fulfilment of the whole agreement on his having completed the plan of con- veying the Mails by the present mode, he referred to a Committee of the whole House on the 12th of May. The motion was agreed to ; but the Chancellor of the Ex- chequer signified that his assent was not to be interpreted as giving any opinion on the merits of the petition. Sir A. IVellesley obtained leave to bring in a bill for enforcing the residence of spiritual persons oil their, livings in Ireland; and also a bill to provide for the building of churches, chapels, and glebe houses, and for purcha. i'. ig glebe lands, & c. in Ireland. He afterwards brought in the bills, both of which were read a first time. An estimate of the general expence for carrying on the Naval Asylum was presented, on the motion of" Mr. Rose. Sir Charles Pole observed, that when some enquiry was made into the qualifications of persons holding offices in Greenwich Hospital, it was made to appear that the Auditor ought to be a person of legal eminence ; but however this might hold good with respect to that insti- tution, on account of the large estates it possessed, the observation would not apply to the Naval Asylum, the accounts of which consist merely of the receipts^ and dis- bursements for 60 boys and 40 girls ; yet a salary of 300/. per annum, with coals and candles, and a house, the finishing of which would cost 1700/. are all given for this service to Dr. Thomas Brooke Clarke, a Reverend Divine, who holds three livings in Ireland, one of which has a glebe of 550 acres of land; and this Dr. Clarke had been paid large sums of public money for making out lists of non- resident Clergymen holding benefices in Ireland, whilst it was his own excuse that he was himself non- resident on account of the duties attendant on the Auditorship of the Naval Asylum. It appeared that this was a rank job, and that his Majesty was deceived by those who had advised him to make this appointment. There . were many meritorious naval men, qualified for the employment. He therefore moved, " That it appears to this House, that the appoint- ment of persons to offices in the Naval Asylum from those who have served in the Navy or the Marines, would be highly advantageous to the Empire, and would diminish the public expence." Mr. Rose said, he should be happy to concur in any motion that was for the benefit of those who had served in the Navy; but the present motion was wholly useless, as the Commissioners were framing regulations for the Naval Asylum, in which the Auditorship would not pass unnoticed. Having remarked, that, the Hon. Baronet, who now talked so loudly of reform, had not taken any step to remedy these abuses whilst he was in office, he concluded with moving the previous question, which, on a division was carried by a majority of 25, there being 71 for it, 46 against it. The original motion consequently was not put. Mr.' Lushington, after intimating that if Sir Home Popham should be able to attend on the 9th of May, he would then bring forward the discussion relative to his conduct, of which he had giv^ n notice, moved for copies of various orders from the Admiralty, & c. to Sir Home, and for a copy of the log- book of the Etrusco, on her voyage from Calcutta to Prince of Wales's Island; which papers, with some exceptions, were ordered. Ou the motion of Mr. Jlauhen, an Account was ordered to be laid before the House of the increase and diminution, and of the number and amount of all Public Offices, from the 18th of July, 1806, to the 1st of January, 1808. In a Committee of Supply, the various customary sums were voted for the civil service in Ireland. The House went into a Committee of Ways and Means, in which the Chancellor of the Exchequer opened THE BUDGET. Having briefly enumerated the different items of Supply voted, amounting in the aggregate to 48,653,1701. from which was to be deducted the proportion to be fur- nished by Ireland, viz. 5,713,5661. which would leave for Great Britain the sum of 42,939,604?. he next stated the Ways and Means, including an issue of Exchequer Bills for four millions ( in lieu of the four millions funded) and a loan of eight millions, which would make an aggregate of 3,9,576,870/. To this was to be added the surplus of the Consolidated Fund, vyhich be should take at 3,750,000/. and which would carry the Ways and Means to 43,076,870/. being 137,000/. more than the Supplies wanted. The interest and Charges upon the Loan and the new Exchequer Bills would amount to 750,000/. which he proposed to provide for in the following manner:— By the falling in of the Short Annuities, there is a Sum of the existing Taxes relieved, amounting to per Annum £. 380,000 A saving in the Charges for Management of the Public Funds 65,000 By the new mode of collecting the Assessed Taxes, and Additions thereto 125,000 And by a Modification of the Stamp Duties, toge- " " —- ••—•*- 200,000 HOUSE OF LORDS. MONDAY, April 11.] Lord Grenville presented a • etition from a large body of the Irish Catholics, praying for the repeal of the various disqualifying statutes to which i ev are still subject. The petition heing laid on the table, Lord Grenville pave notice, that on the 12th of May he should call the attention of their Lordships thereto. The day was after- w„ rds changed to the 13th, and an order made for tlie Lords to be summoned. The Orders in Council Indemnity Bill was read a third .;. t:, iue, and passed.— Adjourned. TUESDAY, April 2.] Earl Stanhope called the at- Mai on of their Lords! ri. f « ! t o a Bill on the table, for ex- it „ uhijti. e powers of psisasuting by information, Every tiicr with a variety of Additions thereto Making together £. 770,000 Being 20,000/. more than the sum wanted. In bis modifi- cation of the Stamp duties, he intended to alter the duty on admission into office. The present duty was 20/. without regard to the value of the office. He should propose to exempt from the duty every office under the value of 60/. per annum ; those from 60/. to 150/. to pay 8.'. from 150/. to 300/. per annum, 20/. and proportionally higher for all of greater value. The duty on indentures of Attorneys and Solicitors, to practice in the superior Courts, 110/. on those in the inferior Courts, and in Scotland, 55/. He should propose some regulations which would prin- cipally affect country bankers, viz. a small duty on those promissory notes which were re- issued, and an additional duty on those notes which were, not payable in London; he should propose 3d. on apound note payable in London, and 4d. on a pound note not payable in London. Some small addition might also be made to the duty on the transfer of Stock shares. Law proceedings were at present burthened with heavy taxes, yet they would bear one or two slight additional duties: he should propose a shilling duty on every summons before a Master in Chancery; and on con- veyances of land, which now bore a duty of 30s. generally, he should propose a duty of 20.?. only on every conveyance where the value of the land did not exceed 150/. from 150/. to 300/. 30s. from ,300/. to 500/. 50s. and from that upwards at a rate not exceeding 20s. for every 100/. After a fe general observations, lie concluded with moving his first resolution, granting the unappropriated surplus of the Consolidated Fund. Mr. liiddulph thought the arrangements for the present year might and ought to have been made without any hew taxes. lie related some facts to shew the value of Crown Rents, by the sale of which, he was certain, 600,000/. might easily have been raised. After some observations from Mr. Tierney, Mr. Giddy, Mr. Vansittart, and Mr. Huskisson, the lesolution passed, and the report was ordered to be received on the morrow. The Bill to restrain the grant of Reversions having been read a third time, Lord Porehester proposed an amend- ment, with a view to bring back the Bill to the principle on which the House originally acted. The amendment was rejected by a majority of 48 ; the Bill was then passed, and ordered to the Lords.— Adjourned. TUESDAY, April 12.] Mr. Grattan offered a petition from a numerous body of Roman Catholics, praying that they might be admitted to the franchises of the consti- tution ; but several of the names subscribed not being in the hand- writing of the parties, and these being so blended with the regular signatures that they could not be well distinguished, the Hon. Gentleman was persuaded for the present to withdraw the petition, that he might hereafter present it in more regular form. Lord Ccisttereagh rose to propose his new plan for the defence of the country. He stated that the regular army now at home, united with the militia, amounted to 200,000 men, exclusive of the artillery. Our regular army, by making each company of infantry consist of 100 men ( which was no more than the Officers could easily j manage) would be increased 50,000 men. He meant to establish a local militia, as an axiny of Mse, rve, f,- ym whence these 50,000 men might be permitted to votun- teer, and it would be a great advantage to. have them re- gularly trained. He could himself rest satisfied of the safety of the country whilst the volunteers could with convenience give their services to the country, in their present excellent military state. Btit is was es entiul to fix and organize a permanent force, which . would always subsist tq tha-, same amount. Looking to the regulars and militia as- the first line, and the volunteers as the second line, it was necessary to have a regimental force as a third line, and the poin£ now to be considered was, what amount of force of tills kind it was necessary to' have, in order to fill up the deficiencies that may arise in the volunteer establishment. An increase may be made, if circumstances require it, but it was unnecessary to bur- then the country ; in. the first instance, six times the number of the militia would be for Great Britain only 330,000. men. Tha number of effective volunteers in Ire- land was close on 70,000. Under this piVo, there would be therefore a depot oi' 400,000, ready at a moment's notice to fill into the regiments of the. line and the militia, according as they may be wanted to make them up. According to the last returns, the effective force of the volunteers in Great Britain was two hundred and ninety thousand. There were actually under arms at the last inspection two hundred and forty thousand. The report of their discipline was highly favourable, and they were declared fully capable of acting with- the line.— When the gross amount of the effective volunteers was compared with six times the amount of tha militia, there was found a deficiency of 30,000 on rjre aggregate. But when this deficiency came to be subuivviJ'l, th& re was found an inequality, some of the conntie- emg snore de- ficient ahtl some less, and among the le, S,<;- the maritime Counties; and the consequence of this inequality was, that 60,000 would be wanted to complete the establishment to the amount desired. He proposed therefore tO^ vethe Crown a power to create a local militia, to the iggregate amount of 60,000 men in the first Instance, to be increased in proportion as the volunteer force should diminish, and to supersede them totally if they should withdraw their services in the event of peace. This militia to be raised by ballot, and every person ballotted to serve in person ; the ballot to include all males between the ages of 18 and 35 years. The training to proceed in peace as well as war, to be for 23 days in every year, and each person is to serve four years; so that in time the whole population of the country will be trained to the use of arms.— At any rate, having a regimental force of 400,000 men, in ad- dition to a regular army of 200,000, which may, if occa- sion required, be increased to 250,000, Parliament may rest content that the empire is secure. Gentlemen would have the interval of the recess to consider the provisions of his plan ; and in order to give them the greatest possible facility, he should move that the Bill be printed. When they should re- assemble, and resume the considera- tion of this subject, he would receive with attention every suggestion Gentlemen should offer, and endeavour as much as possible to profit by them. He moved for leave to bring in a Bill to make better provision for the internal defence of the kingdom. Mr. Windham strongly censured every feature of the present plan, and insisted that it would unnecessarily harass the people, and improfitablv exhaust our means of defence. He declared that at least a million sterling was yearly, wasted by the present Administration on the Volun- teers ; and that their extravagance in other instances was beyond all former precedent. He also entered into a general defence of his own military plans, as every way superior to those which had been substituted for them. After some remarks from Mr. Yorlte and Gen. Tarleton, leave was given to bring in the bill. The Chancellor of the I^ ccheyuer moved for leave to bring in a Bill for making more effectual provision for the maintenance of Stipendiary Curates, and for their residende on their Cures. He prefaced his motion with a speech of considerable length, in which he described the three failures which this mea/ ire had already experienced in Parliament, contended that those failures by no means precluded success in the present instance, and repeated all his former arguments as to the propriety and necessity of the measure. Lord Pdrehcster, Mr. Creeue*. Dr. Lawrence, and Mr. JFindhwni, argued wavrtih' Treasure, as trenching materially and unjustiylupon the rights of one set of men, for the purpose of benefiting another. The Chancellor of the Exchequer and Mr. Babington defended the principle of the proposed bill, and leave Was granted to bring it in. The report of the Budget was brought up, and agreed to, and Bills ordered thereon. The Irish Glebe House Bill tras read a second time, ordered to be printed, and taken into further consideration on the 26th inst. Adjourned.

The Dutch Finances are in the most deplorable state.— Last year there was a deficit of 23 millions, exclusive of previous arrears.— This year the deficit is estimated at 24 millions, and it is openly confessed that no hope exists of reducing the expenditure to the amount of the revenue till the war is at au end with England. The price of coffee, and other articles of colonial produca, continues to rise in Holland. They are equally scarce in Germany. Letters from Hamburgh, dated the 25th of March, state that coffee is there at 3s. a pound. We have at length authentic intelligence respecting the Rochefort Squadron. All the accounts which bad before reached us through the medium of American Captains— all the statements which were so artfully inserted in the French papers, respecting tbe Rochefort squadron having passed the Streights, into the Mediterranean, appear to have been wholly without foundation.— The Rochefort squadron did not pass the Streights, but direeted their course for the West Indies. The Abraham, from St. Domingo, arrived at Lancaster on Monday last", and has tbe following intelligence inserted in her log- book, by the Hon. G. A, Crofton, of his Ma- jesty's brig- Demerara, who had been dispatched to Bermuda by Sir J. T. Duckworth, off Martinique, and was on his return to the Leeward Islands — '•' Monday, 14 March, lat, 30. long. 63. 41. " On Monday, " til inst. the Mullet schooner fell in with a French squadron, consisting of six sail of the line, one a three- decker, in lat. 34. N. long. 69. W. steering W. N. W. and kept company with them three hours." The above important intelligence was fully credited at the Admiralty, and was put up at Lloyd's The last accounts from India mention that an in- surrection had taken place among the Cadets at the Military College at Bonesset, and although from its nature, the consequences were not apprehended to be very serious, the refractory youths would not submit, until the military were brought against them, and were about to charge, them with the bayonet. The fleet for the East Indies, which left Ports- mouth on the 5th of March, were all well on the 21st, in lat. 30. long; 17$. The Lion man of war ( their Commodore, who parted on the 14th) had rejoined, in company with a ' Spanish brfjj, from Vera Cruz, laden with a valuable cargo, her prize! An official account of the action in India, men- tioned in our la'st, was published this morning. It is dated East- India House, April 11, and states that Doondea Khan, a Zemindar and farmer of land in the district of Allyglmr, had committed tile most lawless acts of violence on the inhabitants, and constantly resisted the authority of the Magistrates, which made it necessary to take measures for the reduction of bis fortresses. In consequence, Major- General Dickens, with a considerable force under his com- mand, consisting of the King's and Company's troops, advanced and encamped before the fort of Commona, on the 12th of October last.— The works of Commona were very strong; but after the troops had overcome great diffi- culties, the breach being declared practicable, the fort ? nil the fortified garden were attempted by storm on the evening of the 18th of November. After a desperate struggle, which cost the lives of many valuable officers and men, they were compelled to retire both from the fort and garden ; to the impression, however, made ou the enemy by the gallant conduct of the troops on this occasion, may fairly be ascribed the evacuation of both places in the course of the same night, which were taken possession of the follow- ing day.— The killed on our part amounted to 134; the wounded to 516. Among the killed were Lieut.- Col. Duff, < Captains Radcliffe and Kirk, of the King's forces; Capt. Robertson, ef the Company's Native infantry, aiid several other Officers. people to save the crew, that only two seamen were preserved. The Captain, mate, and seven seamen perished. A worthy young man of Gniiwalloe, named Dale^ who honourably distinguished fiimidf in saving tbe lives of tfi • soldiers wrecked some months since in the James and ' Rebecca transport, ftdl a victim, ou this occasion to his humanity. The cargo of the . above vessel consisted of 300 pipes of - wine, 30 only of'- winch have-' been saved, and conveyed to Helston. GREAT FLOOD.— An extraordinary inundation of the river Frome, at Bristol, caused by the. uncommon swell of fresh water, occurred in ths course of la^ t weuk in that city. On Wednesday the waters began to rise, and in the course of the night, and following morning, a considerable part of the city was inundated; a stream rushing with the utmost impetuosity, through Newfoundland- street, Milk- street, Rosemary- lane, Old King- st. Merchant- st. Broadmead, and Sf. James's- Back.— All the avenues and places adjacent, presented one immense sheet of water, in many places four feet high, and. at least three feet in the centre of several streets ; all the cellars and lower apartments were full, and the inhabitants obliged to fly for refuge to the upper stories. Five or six boats were employed all day in re- moving the people, and carrying provisions to those who were obliged to remain. The goods upon the banks of the Wear, and the adjoining shops, were either swept away, or damaged by tbe flood'. A new strong built wallj 150 yards in extent, near Earl's Mead, was washed down, but we have not heard of any other serious injury. Friday the waters sub: ided. The lands about Stapleton and Bedminster were overflowed, aud the canal dam slightly injured. POLICE.— A fellow named Isaac Dawberry was yesterday examined before Mr. Read, at Bow- street, on a charge of a most aggravated assault on Margaret West, servant to a gentleman in Holboru, who having been sent by her master to a livery- stable to enquire for a chaise, this fellow and a servant from a window, who informed her mistress of th, circumstance, and the lady, sent to Bow- street for some officers ; but before they arrived the two miscreants had been joined by four others, and they had all treated the poor girl in a way too shocking to describe. Five of the villains were gone; but Dawberry remained in the stable whan the officers arrived, and was immediately taken ioto custody. He was committed fur re- examination. OLD BAILEY.— On Saturday George Wilkinson, a servant at the Windmill Inn, St. Jolm's- street West Smithfield, was tried for stealing from his master's warehouse a parcel containing 70/ in Bank noteg, intend"! to have been con- veyed to Wellington by tbe stage cpaeli. Guitth,— Death. — Charlotte Way, alias Bsmstead, a dashing woman, 23 years old, who had formerly lived shop- maid to a haber dasher at High Wycombe, was tried for obtaining large quantities of haberdashery under tha fraudulent pretext that they were for her former mi. itress, from different wholesale dealers in London, which goods she had uni- formly pawned. The facts were proved, and her only defence was, that she had been instigated to these fraud- by Quarter- master Hawkes, of the light dragoons. She had made a similar assertion on her first examination before a magistrate ; and - tiie quarter- master attended- her final examination, aud exonerated himself from the charge. The Jury without hesitation found a verdict of Guilty, The case itself did not excite so much notice as - the re- spectable appearance of the Prisoner, who was dressed in a black velvet pelisse, a white bandeau round her Ivor, bracelets, & e. be. in short, she appeared dressed more fit for a Theatre than a Prison. She heard both the trial and verdict with the most complete stmgfrpiji. On Monday Thomas Bucltjlv. Daniel' Buckley. John Homer, and John Hartcup were indicted on the Statute of the 37th of the King, which mates it felony < br . uiyperson to counterfeit coin, with intent to resemble the- goliVor silver coin of a Foreign Prtrifce.' The indictment chargeiT the prisoners with counterfeiting the Guilder, a Prussian coin. The evidence was not interesting, but the offence being proved, the Jury found them all guilty. The con- re tkf. vi'isouavs to imprisonment cr transport ation. J. W. Shepperd was tried for a highway robbery, and capitally convicted. On Tuesday there was no trial at all interesting.

' uord limning, Chairman of the Committee appointed to'( insider tbe propriety of confining, for a time to be Sated, the Distilleries to the use of Sugar and Molasses in thtaariufacture of Spirits, brought up the report of that Connittt e. ir II. Mihlmay apprized the House, that the part of fneRqioit which went to prohibit the use of grain in distlition, though sanctioned by the opinions of the tnajfity of the Committee, had by no means its unanimous Hppibation.

" The resolutions were read ; and the last relating to the tale of Crmtn lands, the Shaker stated that it was not customary to interfere with tbe hereditary revenue of the Irown, without a special communication from bis Majesty. Mr. Biddulph stated that the. revenues alluded to co - fi'ted of small ground rent ', detached old houses, lie. and hid fallen olf so that it now yielded only 150b/. a year; yet it would yield a large sum, as the liold. rs of e tates were very anxious to purchase it. The legal quays, a d ether property to a much greater amount, had lately been purchased with money from the Consolidated Fund, and vested in his Majesty. On this anil other grounds, the question of form ought not to impede tbe resolution. The Chancellor of the Exchequer promised to give every facility to the plan of the Hon.

Yesterday letters dated the 6th inst. Were received from Heligoland, which mention sot » ie particulars con- tained in Hamburgh and Altona papers that have not yet reached us. Among other tilings, k is stated, that the Russians have defeated the Swedes in several actions, and obtained possession of the whole of Fin- land.' As these Journals are, however, completely devoted to the " enemy, little reliance can be placed on unofficial report- id this kind. The report of me French troops having got to the island. of Zealand, which prevailed yesterday, is not mentioned in the letters from. Heligoland, and we therefore hope it is unfounded. Advices having been received of great preparations making to fit out a strong squadron for sea, at Brest, the close blockade of that port has been again ordered. It is said, that twelve sail of the line are there, in a complete state of equipment; a great part of the crews of which are composed of able seamen, from Holland, Genoa, & e. They will also take on lioard a numerous bodv of troops. It is suspected that an Expedition to the River Plata is meditated. The Squadron under the command of Admiral Duckworth, consisting; of five sail of the line, left St. Kitt's on the £ 2d of February, and went to leeward. It was supposed that the Admiral would go through the Mona Passage, and proceed straight to the coast of America. By the accounts of two vessels which have just arrived from St. Domingo, it appears that Captain Goodall, a native of this country, had visited that island with a pri- vateer car'd the Young Roseius. ' i .>' iitp he i> a. l ?>> M to Christophe, v> n.. had IraLtt u'> r. ha t > ' nt,; into the naval « ervice of Hayti, under the title of " High Admiral oLthe Haytian Fleet." Captain Goodall's First Officer, Mr. John M'Cullogh, was appointed Rear- Admiral, and they were both ordered to attack a port near Cape Nicola Mole, called Jean Rebel, which was in posse sion of Christophe's great competitor for Imperial sway, Petion. Capt. Goodall and his coadjutor went to the attack with the Young Roscius and two schooners, aud they found two schooners belonging to Petion lying at anchor under the fort.— One of these schooners the High Admiral's little squadron blew up with the first broadside, but while he was preparing to attack the other, a musket ball killed Mr. M'Culloch, and C'apt. • Goodall then desisted from tbe enterpize. The latest advices from Jamaica state, that pro- visions, which were expeeted to rise to an enormous price ill consequence of the embargo laid in the American ports, were much cheaper in the West Indies than they had been for some tine past. The fact is, that the Americans find means to evade the embargo. AFFAIR of HONOUR.— On Tuesday Earl Fitzwilham and Major Bower met in Doneaster race- ground, for the pur- pose of fighting a duel. The Major had insinuated that the Noble Earl had trafficked in the liorough of Malton; in consequence of which, his Lordsliip sent the Major a chaReo'e. An explanation took place on the ground, the Major declaring that he was under a mistake when he used tile offensive words ; and the seconds availed themselves of this explanation to prevent the parties from proceeding to - extremities. A Durx was lately fought at Rio Janeiro, between Ge- neral ( j and Captain T, in consequence of Captain X having behaved rudely to General 0 , and said of him what did not accord with truth. The General shot Captain T through the body, but it did not prove fatal. The General was a plssenger in the ship commanded by - Captain T , and going out to join the at my in \ Sou:. h America, but arrived there too late. The will of the late Mr. Goldsmid was opened on Thursday. It is said that lie has left property to the amount of 250,00( 1/. which goes chiefly to his children, • With an allowance of 200/. a year only to his widow. His three brothers are named his executors. SrtciDE.— A Gentleman who has made himself very con- spicuous in East India politics arid election contests put a period to his life yesterday. It is supposed that pecuniary embarrassments drove him to this act of desperation. On Tuesday evening, one of the stoves or drying- houses, at the powder- mill on Hounslow- bejtb, blew up, aud the man who had the care of it was killed.. No other person received any injury.

In tbe advertisement respecting the improvements at the Southampton new Pier, we are desired to in- form the public, that as a sufficient quantity of Ashler Stone caunot be obtained from the Isle of Wight, the Purbeck Ashler Stone, from Swanage, may he used instead.— Sec advertisement in the first page. In consequence of the paragraph in our paper of last week respecting the C'hristchurch Election, we are dedred to make the following statement: At the General Election in 1806, an attempt was made, for the first time since the borough sent Members to Parliament, to have the votes of flic inhabitants at large received—- they were of course refused— on which a Petition to the House of Commons was presented, and afterwards permitted by the sitting Members to be withdrawn.—— At the last Election, the Mayor, in order to afford the best means of the right being tried, refused to permit the votes of the inhabitants being even tendered: on the ground of this refusal, some of the inhabitants again petitioned the House of Commons last year, and pledged themselves to the inhabitants at large, to have the right tried.— After an interval of six months for reflection, and for obtaining the best advice, they renewed their Petition in the present s?" ion ; and when the day was fixed for the heal ing, they published a hand- bill giving notice of this, accompanied by fresh assurances of their positive determination to have " decision on the right, the effecting which was completely i:, their power ;— but instead of holding to their engage- ments, they declined trying the question, and their Petition was voted frivolous and vexatious. Ilvlton Joliffe, Esq. 31. P. for Pttersfield, is ap- pointed Governor of Surinam. Thursday- came in here, on their rout to the Isle of Wight, 10 ® fine young men, from Scotland, going to join the 93 rd regiment.

PLYMOUTH, April 15. The Channel fleet has sailed from Torbav, to resume its station off Brest. Letters from our squadron off Lisbon, dated the 3d jnst. state, that the Russian squadron was much in want of provisions, and lying at single anchor, sup- posed with the intent of shipping out, should our fleet be blown off the coast.

A wonderful instance of resolute and patient endurance of pain occurred last week at the Salisbury Infirmary:— Henry Barton, of Milborne St. Andrew, Dorset," had been sent to the Infirmary with a large tumour oil the back^ wbich was extracted on Wednesday. During the whole of the operation, he did not utter a single excla- mation ; though he once observed to Mr. Coates, the surgeon, when the knife was blunted by the callous sub- stance, " that knife does not cut so well as the last." Ti e tumour was 18 inches in circumference, and when extracted weighed fire pounds and a quarter! BIRTHS.] Lately, in Grosvenor- stjeet, the.

He leaped from the cooler, thinking he might alight in the garden, but failed in this attempt, and was forced with much violence against a willow tree, from which he was after some time taken, quite dead, but not drowned, his head having been kept above tbe water. He ventured on the above dangerous employ without the knowledge of any part of the family, and contrary to tl » ; entreaties of a fellow servant. His master is much concerned, and his son aud nephew followed the poor man to his grave. HOME MARKETS. Prices of Corn, per Quarter— Bread, per Gallon. | Wheat.
