conveyed between the King and his fulijelle, par ticularly in matters of tuch .moment and impor tance as that on which we are now debating, and cn which every body is now In materially Waal ? With refpeEt to the affertion made on a for ther day, that Lord Whitworth was about to leave Pari., the Right Hon. Gentleman who made it wa, certainly mitlaken ;—and fo might any body be miaak,:n. It is probable that the delay in Lord Whitworth', departuie has arifen from an tepee tation that he fhould be able to feud a more fa vourable arifwer :—I cannot help hoping, that it has happened in eonfequence of his judicious con. duift• But whatever the Rate of the negotiation may be, the Houfe ought to be in a fituation to receive information when it arrives. Lord Haire kssuitv.- 4, Sir, I think it my l ,miry to fay a few words in regard to the prefent motion. I am of the fame opinion on this day as on Friday laR, and therefore think that this motion ought to be ferved in the fame manner as the one made on that day. I then voted for an I adjournment to Monday on this ground, viz. that though ft was not ufual for this Houfe to fit upon Saturday, even on bufinefs of the mod urgent Pub lic or private importance, yet. where fueb a meet ing was likely to lead to any probable good con ikquences, I might then be inclined to vary Come what from the ufual murk I and feting that no apparent good could accrue in the prefent cafe from inch a variation, I was jut inclined to follow the ulna' cootie in adjourning to Monday. I con ceive that the Gentleman who (poke laft did not rightly underhand my Honourable Friend, when he imagines, that he did not Rate that there was no pofEbility of a Communication being made by his Mak Ily's Minifters. It is perfettly true, that float my Hon. Friend made his Communication on Friday laft, a delay was occafioned from cir cumflances which can be explained, and if ex plained would, I am certain, be conceived as fatis faCtory. If we were to fuppofe the cafe of the Ne gociatkm failing. and of Lord Whitworth coming away from Paris in confequence of that failure, this, he lays, is a probability which would require A communication as early as poffible. If fuch un fortunately were to be the refult, fome time would be required for a deliberate and proper communi cation ; and in the other cafe of the Negotiation being amicably fettled, I think there can be no doubt of his Majefty's Minifters being anzioufly difpofed to communicate the important intelli gence in fome manner or other to the public.— It has not, however, been ufual in cafes relpeEt irig the cooclution of important arrangements and treaties, that the King (hould communicate the whole particulars to his Parliament, and the public at large, till fuch time as the whole par ticulars and minute circumftances of the aft or treaty itfelf be compleatly adjufted in one way or fo as to enable him to do it with certainty and advantage. "IA the prefent cafe I am alfo of opinion, that a communication fimilar to what I have juft hinted at, cannot pof fi bly be laid before this Houfe by to-morrow ; and at any rate, under all the prefent circumftances of public affairs, I cannot perceive any prifEble benefit likely to refult from a hurried or imperfela communication, nor any_ground to jullify Rich a proceeding. Mr. MARTII4 raid, he was Rill difpofed to give his confidence to the prefent Minifters, and &mild continue it, until he heard fomething which fuould induce him to change his opinion of them: In the prefent initance he lhould with to know what danger, or what impropriety there was in use Houfe meeting to-morrow? He walled Mi niflers to confider whether fomething might not occur from their condo& to excite the anger and indignation of the country? Dr. LAWR I NCI wilted to draw the attention of the tioufe to this circumftance, that the antiert pralice of the Houfe was to lit on Saturday. The pretumption therefore was, that they would hit to-morrow. How the pratice of titling on Saturday came to be deviated from it was not now neceffary to inquire, nor was he difpofed to oppofe the motion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Motion for adjourning to Monday was then put and carried without a divifiun. ELECTION COI4I4ITTEII. The Ceamcstioe or Tit ExcNsgpta role and oblerved, that an Hon. Gentleman oppofite to him (Mr. Fox), bad on a former day expreffed with, that on the days appointed for balloting Committees for trying the merits of eontelled eke tions,that the ballot ibould be only for one Corn trilittee inilead of two, whereby he imagined the pub lic bulinefs would be expedited. By an Alf of the hit Set ons he obferved. that the Bottle was em powered. on obtaining one ballot, if there fhould not be Members enough prefent to ere& another. then to proceed to the dill:ouch of other bunnefs,and on any other day following to ballot for the next Committee. The Hon. Gentleman would hence fee, that it would be better to let the orders refpeaing filch ballots Rand as they were already flied, as any alteration would not improve the chance of obtaining a ballot ; for his own part, he had no with on the fubjeA one way or the other, but he thought there w.is a !setter chance of effeAing the ballots as the orders already Rood, than by making an alteration. Mr. Fox anfwered, the whole was a mere matter of arrangements and his fole wifb was to improve it. The datement of the Right Hon. Member might be very right ; but he, for his own part, thought that having two ballots Wiwi of one up on any Jay. would impede public bufinels ; but he would not further prefs any change.

Bills. 16.04 COOL for May 641i6if The report that Government had yefterday re ceived advises of a 'eel with Lord WusrwoaTu and Suite being within fight of Dover, turns out to have been an unfounded furmife. The nature of the intelligence that arrived is explained by the proceedings in Parliament laft night. Minifters have received information that the decifion of the queflion at Paris has met with an tinexpeaed delay. iu confequence of which it was doubtful whether any intelligence would arrive fo as to enable K nitters to make any communication to Parliament this day, even if it had not adjourned till Monday. What the canfe of this delay is, Minifters laid it was not necefary for them at prefect to explain Perhaps the accident which happened to the Cit t sr Consul. may partly be the cauk—Perhaps it is true that he has refolved to affociate tome of lta Councils, Senates. or Legifiatiye Bodies, in the refponfibility of the tefolution. whether it be for peace or war ? This would be an artifice not ill deviled, whatever be his intention. If he is willing to yield, it will let him down gently. If he is determined to rejes our Ultimatum, it relieves him from the odium which may attend a war. It appears that Mini tiers bad not received intelli gence of Lord W Hirwoarit ' s having quitted Paris, which, unlefs the anfwer of the French Government be favourable and decifive, he was immediately to do. Lord H AWs snotty Paid that the caufe of delay might not operate for more than a few hours, fo that the deciticrn may be received today. General Awnasossi and the Dutch Ambafador have both made every preparation for leaving England on the Era intimation of Lord WHtr woars having left Paris. It is reported, that Spain will be fufered to remain neutral, thould there be a war. When the Stock-Exchange opened this morning, the prevailing opinion teemed to be, that the con tinuance of peace was probable, from what dropt from Minillers left night. The 3 per Cent.Confols, in confequence, got op to 651. About noon, how ever, a report became very current, that Lord Wa yr woarn had arrived at Dover, and the price de., clined to 62f. At One o'clock it was 6al for Money, and the fame for time. The arrival of either a Courier from Paris or Lord WHITWORTH himfelf was fo momentarily ex peZted, that his Mai a Fry remained in town this day, as he had done yefterday, to know the refult. WAR WITH FRANCE. Between t 2 and one o'clock this forenoon, Mr. Ly ELI., a blelienger, with difpatches from Peterf burgh, arrived at the Secretary of State's Of fice. He came through Paris, which City he left at Nine o'clock on Thurfdayevening, bringing with him difpatches from Lord Wetrwoarn. The arrival of this Mellinger puts the grand queflion of Peace or War beyond all poffibility of doubt, as will appear by the following Cost wuptc•rtoot to THR LORD MAYOR: “ DOWNIIIO.STIFIT, MAY 14, 1303. •, Mr Logo, ' 1 I think it right to lofe no time in informing 00 your Lordlhip, that Lyst.t, the Mellinger, is 00 Oa arrived from Paris with difpatches from 00 Lord Witorworrit, by which it appears that " Lord WHITWORTH had received his palrports, and was on the point of leaving Paris when " the Mellinger came away on Thurfday evening. " I have the honour to be, " My Lord, your Lorcithip's " Moll obedient and humble fervant, MAIWILISSURY. " The Right Hon. the LORD MAYOR." To the above we have only to add, that the difpatches confirm what WAS Rated two days ago, that the Cum Cossut. had left the quellion to a Council—They decided for War ! ! This day we received Paris Journals to the t tth infant inclufive. They contain hardly any thing of importance, but they confirm the news of the CN I as CONSUL having been thrown from his phae• ton. He is reported, however, to have received only a flight bruife in one band. • The French Funds have fallen. Os Teetday they were 54f. 35 e. on Wednefdar t e price was 53 L 40 c. From thefe Papers it appears, that the lait parches to Lord Wm IT WORT 11, which were expo& ed to bring the grand qoefiion to an iffue, had not arrived at 1 aria on Timidity night. Pars, Dian o.—The Cu 111 CONSUL mitt wijh maccident the day before yefterday, which' ight have been attended with the moil ferious confequences, but which he happily efcaped by his :pretence of mind. He had fet out from the Cattle ; of Saint Cloud in a phaeton, about three in the ;afternoon, to take an airing in the gardens with Madame BOMAPALTE, the Conful CAMBACERSS, and other perfons. The phaeton was drawn by four horfes, which BONAPIILTI drove himfelf.— The harks being young and fiery. became relive ; they tore down a barrier which was in their way, and were thrown down. The CHIEF' CONSUL to avoid falling forward, threw hitnfelf on one fide, and fell at a conliderable diftance from the car riage. The fall was violent, but he happily fell on the grafs and experienced no other hurt than a flight brnife in the hand. Yefterday he took all airing to Malmaifon. We every moment e pea the return of the Met fenger difpatched on Wcdnefday 1.111 to London by the Englilb Amballidor. Six (hips of 74 guns each, which are now on the Rocks at Toulon, will be launched towards the end of fummer. BANKS OF TNI MAINE, Mar 3.—The Cabinet of Berlin rases to enlarge its poireffions in Weft phalia. It hal entered into negotiations with the Duke of Aansaaaa, who will cede to it his new acquiBtions in that country. The arrangement is on the point of being terminated. Similar nego tiations have been begun with other petty Princes, whole polleffions border on thole of Pruffia. His; PRUSSIAN MAPLSTY is expefted at Bayreuth. He will proceed to Wurzbourg, where he will have an interview with the EleAor of Bavaria, and to Anfpacb, Aran, Frankfort, and Fulda. Visama, APRIL 28.—Our Court is employed at this moment in fettling the differences which have arifen between the reigning Duke of Wurtemberg, and the Hereditary Prince his fon. It is probable that this young Prince will prolong his flay in the Auftrian States. His Royal Highnefs the Arch duke CILIUM, who has bad an opportunity of appreciating his military talents, has offered him the rank of Lieutenant Field-Marfhal, and the Regiment of Bender. ST orromin, May I.—An ordinance has been publifhed here and throughout the whole country of Wurtemberg, in regard to the celebration of the happy event, by which our Sovereign has been mired to the eleitoral dignity. His Serene High nefs announces in it that he has affumed the fol lowing title :—" We FILEDIRIC 11. by the Grace of Gen, Duke of Wurtemberg, EleBor and Grand Pander of the Holy Roman Empire, Duke of Tech, Stc. &e."

I neral Gwynn', rode from the (been's-Houk through St. james's.areet, BonclAreet, Oxford areet the New Road, Camden Town, Hemp. ' Read, Highgate, and laington. As his Litany paged through chore places. he paid particitlar attention to the new !madams and alterations that have been made within thefe few years in thole neighbourhoods. His MAJESTY returned 'into London by Tottenham Court Road, through Soho Square, Leiceiter Sqpare, his own Mews; by Charing Crofs, and tittered the Park by the Horfe Guards, where the Life Guards had but )u a R timely notice to be affembled to falute his Matsui' as he paired. His Majirry flopped tome time on the parade, viewing the great gun, having never feen it. As his Maj arry paled through the greets, he was greeted by the populace with loud hussas, and calling out God Cave the King. Notice was received at Dover on Thurfday, that all perfons who chofe to fit out privateers. might fend their propofals to the Admiralty. There is a great number at Dover. The- Lords Commiffioners of the Admiralty have been pleafed to appoint Ricasao Sauna, Efq. Agent of the Royal Hofpital at Plymouth, vice Geolos Simms, Efq. fuperannuated. For fome time pall Mrs. STAINS/ORM the Houle-keeper to her MAMMY at Buckingham houfe, has received letters, figned by Jolla OLD. FIILD, dated from Dover. She not knowing the name, and the contents of the letters being of fuck an incoherent nature, (he did not pay much atten tion to them. Within thefe few days he has called livens' times at the Qieen's Houfe, defiring to fee Mu. S. but (he not knowing any Each perfon, de dined feeing him, but he would not take a denial, and Paid that he was in the employ of the Passes of WALES and the DI/K1 of You, and that the Duns had promifed him a letter of credit to go abroad, which the Porters not believing, they turned him out, and threatened to horfewhip him if he came again. On Thurfday night about ten o'clock, he made his appearance again, laying the MIKA of YORK &fired him to call at the Q u een's Houle for fome paper which his Royal Highiiefs promifed to leave for him, and endeavoured to force himfelf into the houfe. but was prevented, and fecured by the Por ters, who gave him into the care of the Soldiers at the Guatd-houfe, in the Bird-cage Walk, where he remained during the night. Early yeßerday morn ing Saran, the 066cer, was fent for, who, after teeming him, took him before Sir Rico mus Fain, .t his houfe in Sloane-fireet , when it appeared he bad been deranged about two years (ince, and was confined in Bedlam, and went out fuppofed to be cored, fine which he has been in the Work-honfe at Dover, from which place he has efcaped within thefe few days.
