been reduced to the last extremity, before the troops which we know to have been fent out, or other fuccours from Madras, could arrive to their relief.

The following ftatement of the prefent ftrength of the British navy, was communicated by one of his Majefty's minifters, upon a late occafion, in the House of Commons. The hips, frigates, and floops of war now in commiffion, are 411: the final craft employed on the British coat, are 602: the fmall craft on the Irish coaft, 137: in addition to thefe, the East India Company fupplies 20 fhips, and the Trinity Houfe, 10, for the defence of the Thames: 373 veffels are now in a progrefs of being armed and otherwife equipped for fea, with the utmolt difpatch. The number of the fea men in actual fervice, is 77,002: the marines are 11,97.

Several debates of no fmall keennefs and importance, arofe, during the month of March, in the two Houfes of Parliament. On the rft, the question for the Speaker's leaving the Chair, in the Houle of Commons, that the Houfe might go into a Committee, on the Bill to confolidate and amend the feveral laws relating to Volunteers, was warmly and eloquently opposed; and a long contention of arguments enfued. Mr. Francis, Colonel Crawford, Admiral Berkeley, Mr. Fox, Mr. Windham, and Mr. Pitt were the principal fpeakers in this debate. The farther progrefs of the bill was oppofed on the pretence, that its tendency was, to impofe new, unforeseen, and intoler able retraints upon the volunteers; and yet, that it would not tend to provide the country with an effective force the moft fuitable for its actual defence againft invasion. Captain Markham replied, wi h great fpirit to fome cenfures of the manner in which the naval defence of the country is managed; and endeavoured, with fome plaufibility, to evince, that it is even better adapted, than that of the late war, for the effectual baffling of all that is attempted or menaced by the enemy. The queftion for a Committee of the Houfe on the Bill, was carried.

On the fame day, a debate on the Bill for the Restriction of the Bank of Ireland from making payments in coin, was opened in the Houfe of Peers, by Lord King. His Lordship reprefented the meafu e renewed in the Bill, as having al. ready been pernicious to the trade of Ireland. To this fource alone, he trove to trace the origin of the pretent difidvantage to which Ireland is fubject in

the Exchange of money with England and other countries-the decline of trade and manufactures in that ifland-and the extenlive fubverfion of commercial credit both within Ireland, and in the inter

courfe between Iith merchants and their foreign correfpondents. Lord Caernarvon and Lord Grenville adopted and enforced the fame opinion. It was ingen only oppofed by Lord Hawkesbury and the Lord Chancel or, who endeavoured to fhew, that, under the refriction, in former years, the Bank of Ireland had if fued its notes with the most commendable good faith and difcretion; and that no evils could refult from renewing the refriction which would, in any degree, counterbalance its utility in the prefent general circumstances of the Empire.

The fame fubject came under difcuffion in the Houfe of Commons, on the 2d of March. The evils of the retriction were eloquently flated by Mr. Fefter and Mr. George Pontonby: its neceffity was, on the other hand, well urged by Mr. Corry.

An enquiry from Mr. Grey refpecting his Majelty's indifpofition was antwered from the Minifterial Bench in language intimating his rapid convalefcence to a ftate of health, in which he would easily difcharge all the accuftomed functions of royalty.

The new fchedule of the duties payable at the Cuftom-houles in the ports of Ireland were the fubject of confideration in the Houfe of Com nens, on the 3d. Several alterations have been made, accommodating that scale of duties, fomewhat better than in the former schedule, to the general interefts of the trade of the United Kingdom.

On the 6th, Sir John Wrottefley, in the Houfe of Commons, moved for a Committee to enquire into the caufes of the late infurrection in Dublin. He ar- . guei, that the Government had been, to a criminal degree, negligent of the mea- . fures fit to prevent that dangerous outbreaking of rebelion; and fated, in particular, among other things, tha', almoft at the critical moment, the Lord Lieutenant's fecretary, Mr. Mariden, had made very light of the whole affair. Mr. Canning fuppor ed the motion with great earnestnels. But it was frenaoufly oppofed by L rd Cattle eaga, and ir. Secretary Yorke; and was, in the end, rejected.

On the roth, the enquiries from min f. ters, refpecting the state of his Majty's Pp2 health,

health, were renewed, in the Houfe of Commons, by Mr. Grey; in the Houfe of Peers, by the Earl of Fitzwilliam. The answers were fo fatisfactory refpecting the King's recovery, as to leave no room for the propofition of any new meature in Parliament, relative to the fupreme functions of the Executive Go

vernment.

On the 14th, Mr. Creevey propofed an enquiry into the conduct of the British Government, and its fervants, towards the native inhabitants of the island of Ceylon; reprefenting, with a full detail of particulars, that it had been highly inconfiderate and unjuft. But, he failed to perfuade the Houfe, that it ought to yield to his motion. Mr. Francis moved, the fame day, and with no better fuccefs, for an enquiry into the origin and juf tice of the prefent war with the Mah

rattas.

But the most important motion of enquiry that has been lately made, was that propofed by Mr. Pitt, relating to the Naval Defence of this country. He reprefented the ftrength and activity of the Navy to be, now, confiderably lefs, than in the late war. He complained that there was in particular, a great deficiency in thofe fmall armed veffels, which must naturally be the fitteft to cope with the gun boats of the French. He lamented the want of due activity in the dockyards, and the neglect of the convenient policy of having hips of war built by the merchants, upon commiffion. The diftribution of the fquadrons, the general fyftem of the operations of the fleet, the manner in which the Navy is now fupplied with feamen and marines, but efpecially the ftate of the naval defence of the coaft, and the tone and tenor of the conduct of the Admiralty, were reviewed, in his fpeech, with ftrong and pointed cenfure. Mr. Tierney defended the prefent administration of the Navy; and reprefented the whole naval force of the Empire now to confift of not fewer than 1500 fhips of war. Sir C. M. Pole zealously reprefented the prefent plan of our naval operations offenfive and defenfive to be the bett adapted of any that a profeffional feaman could well imagine, for fuccefsful oppofition to the force and defigns of the enemy. Sir Edward Pellew gave a fimilar opinion; and informed the Houfe that within every three weeks, the fhips of war under his command, on the ftation he lately occupied had been relieved regularly; and that gun-brigs and other fuch veffels as now formed the

blockade of the port of Boulogne were much fitter than any smaller ones to act fuccessfully against the French gunboats. He even added, that he thought it impoffible for any French force fufficient to make a defcent on the British or Irish coafts, to efcase across the Channel, undiscovered by the English fquadrons, as thefe are now diftributed, and main tained in active vigilance. Mr. Sheridan zealously vindicated the conduct of the Earl of St. Vincent's at the head of the Admiralty; and pronounced a very high eulogy on the vigour and integrity with which that illuftrious nobleman has fuppreffed peculation and embezzlement in different departments of the naval fervice; as well as on the energy, the vigilance, the comprehenfive and difcerning pro'effional judgment with which he has managed the equipment and the diftri bution of the fleets, convoys, and cruizers, and on his care not only to fupply by new equipments, the conftant waste of war and navigation, but ftill, likewife, to increase the force of the Royal Navy, and the numbers of its fhipping. Mr. Fox cordially joined in the praifes of Lord St. Vincent's, but was not averfe from an enquiry, the refult of which could not, in his judgment, fail to crown that nobleman's character with new honous. Mr. George Ponfonby called, alfo, for an enquiry. Many other members fpoke in the debate; and it was continued to great length. The Chancellor, of the Exchequer spoke ftrenuoufly against the motion. The Houfe at laft, divided on the question. Not fewer than 130 voted with Mr. Pitt; but his motion of Enquiry was rejected by a majority of 201. There was a felicity in the choice of this question, inasmuch as it was almoft the only one on which the friends of Mr. Fox and those of Mr. Pitt could divide together against the Adminiftration, without any very confpicuous dereliction of the principles upon which they had been before in mutual hoftility between themfelves. It was observed, that, in this instance, not only Mr. Sheridan, but alfo the other fervants of his Royal Highnefs the Prince of Wales, gave their votes with the Administration.

tionary exceffes, and by the inftitution of the Confular Authorities. By the amnefties to the emigrants, many fincere royalists were reftored to France. Moreau, and all thofe officers who, not being Bonaparte's creatures, faw themselves excluded by his fupremacy from advancement agreeable to their wishes, were, of courfe, induced to defire a new change of government; and when they confidered the old attachments of the people, and the example of England in the feventeenth century, could imagine no change fo likely to fatisfy the majority of the French Nation, and to build up their own fortunes on a fure foundation, as one that should reftore the regal dignity and the Family of the Bourbons. Among the exiles to whom all amnesty was denied, or who, in their zeal for their King, and their abhorrence of Bonaparte, fcorned to accept the Conful's favour, were not a few perfons of diftinguifhed ability, indefatigable in intrigue, impatient of revenge, fanguine in hopes, and therefore inceffantly labouring to overturn, by their correfpondence, the Confular power, and to reconcile the minds of the French People to a reftoration of their old rulers. The burthens and loffes of the prefent war, and the ridicule of eternal threats and preparations ending in nothing, have confiderably diminished that popular enthusiasm in France for Bonaparte which arole from his fucceffes in Italy, the only theatre of his martial glory and from his giving peace to the nation at a time when it was abfolutely fick of the beggary, the defolation, the oppreffion of military adventure and of conqueft. In this ftate of feelings, parties, opinions, and interests, in France, that which was naturally to be expected has taken place. A confpiracy to dethrone the First Conful has been detected. Pichegru and fome other exiles, who had fecretly paffed to France from Englandand other furrounding countries, have been feized at Paris in fufpicious fituations, fuch as it is imagined that they would fcarcely have put themfelves into if they had not been in plots against the Government. General Moreau, and various other perfons never accufed till now of treafon against the Revolution, have been taken and put in confinement, as accomplices in the fame defigns. The treachery of perfons who were in the confpiracy had betrayed it to the fpies of the

Firft Conful and his Minifters. The feizure of the papers of those persons against whom the information was given, is faid to have told more and a good deal has been extorted by examination from the men under accufation and in confinement. A plot of the moft heinous intentions is faid by the Minifters of the Confular Government to have been thus feasonably dif covered. But it is, on the other hand, loudly alledged by the friends of Moreau and Pichegru, that the whole accufation is a fiction of the Government for the ruin of men whom the First Conful dreaded, and found a fuitable moment to deftroy, on pretence of their being in a conspiracy against him. A third party affirm that the confpiracy is in part real; that the perfons accufed are, in general, privy to it; but that they have been enfnared by pretended accomplices, who were, in truth, the fpies and decoys of the Government; that they had not intentions nearly fo bold and guilty as those which are now attributed to them; and that, if put to death, they will perish, not upon fair, fubftantial evidence, but upon fufpicions and pretences, which, however, are not at bottom entirely in the wrong. Lavallee, Laborie, and feveral of those who are named by the Government as being in confpiracy, and profcribed for seizure or death, are faid to have escaped to London. Within a fhort time before the conspiracy was detected, most of the officers who had been promoted to eminent command under Moreau, or upon his recommendation, were removed from their appointments.Public expectation at Paris is now turned with great anxiety toward the iffue of the trials of the conspirators. As the trial by jury is now under fufpenfion in France, it is not fuppofed that they will be fuffered to escape, if the Government can find advantage in their death.

In the mean time, the preparations for the invafion of this country are much increafed in all the ports of France and Holland. There are faid to be not fewer than twelve hundred armed veffels ready at Boulogne only. At other ports the preparations are believed to be proportionately great. At Toulon, at Breft, at every port of France and Holland, armaments are faid to be in readiness to fail, as foon as they may efcape out with any profpect of eluding or defeating the blockading fquadrons.

INCIDENTS, MARRIAGES, AND DEATHS, IN AND NEAR LONDON. With Biographical Memoirs of diftinguished Characters recently deceased.

On the 2d of March Mr. George Smart had another opportunity of fhewing the excellence of his chimney-fweeping apparatus in extinguishing the fire in a flue. At No. 12, Gloucester Place, Camden Town, the kitchen chimney took fire, in a few minutes it raged with fo much fury as to break the chimney-pot to pieces, and to threaten the deftruction of the house itself; the heat in`deed was fo violent as to render the adjoining house in fome danger. Mr. Smart's apparatus was fent up, and though the paffage was in a great meafure blocked up by the broken pieces of the chimney-pot, in the course of three or four minutes it completely extinguished and brought down all the foot. fireman (from the Phoenix Office, we believe) accidentally paffing at the time, was witnefs to the whole fcene. With this apparatus Mr. S. has fwept nearly 700 chimneys without the aid of any climbing boy, the whole work being performed by a man in the room from which the chimney rifes. In the courfe of his progrefs he has met with fourteen inftances only in which he has failed in the attempt.
