Strangers were excluded tor a considera-ble time, duridg which it was understood that their Lordships were occupied in a point of Pr iv i lege .

O n our. re-admittance into the flo'USPj L o r d CA RYSFORT was inquiring in what

state the negociation between this country and Russia stood.

L o r d M U L G R A V E answered, that he was not at present authorised to inform • his L o r d s h i p . So soon as he received au'tho rity to do.so, heshould he happy to g ive his Lnn|s l i ip every neccssaiy information.

L o r d CA RYS FORT , then gave notice, that he should on T h u r s d a y se'nnight sub-mit a motion-on that subject to the conside-ration of the House. T h e i r Lordships w e i e a c c o r d i n g l y ordered to be summoned for that day.

M R . J U S T I C E F O X . ^ L o r d M I N T O t h e n , agreeably to the no-

tice AVihich; he yesterday gave , called the attention of the House t o the'great inconve-nience, and hardships under which Mr . j u s -tice F o x lay, in ,having the minds of his Jtujgei'.piejudteed by an ex parte • evidence taken against .him, whi le from his ignorance of the, contents of it, he was precluded from k n o w i n g h o w far the evidence now adduc-ed corresponded with that formerly g iven , or , il the; former evidence was incorrect, had no opportunity of lefuting-. it. H e therefore moved that the former Committee be revived with an instruction to lay the proceedings taken before them on the table of the House.

L o r d 'H A W K E S B U R Y saw great in c o n v e n i e n c i e s i n t h e w a y either of the adop-tion or rejection of this motion ; though on the .whole , in his opinion, . the difficulties arising from adopting it would preponderate' A s , ho w e v e r , it seemed to be so -much the wish of the.Han.

T h e . L O R D . C H A N C E L L O R said, he for one could not approve , of the present motion. H e fo und it to be.contrary to the principle of proceeding and to the forms of the House .

add to what lie had stated o.ft"'the foimerr oc-cas ion .—It was not in hir< power to return any other answer to the H o n . Gentleman's' question.

to be understood that his reason for doing so did not. proceed from any. idea that rhe H o n . Judge below the Bar was entitled to greater i n d u l g e n c e , tnan any other person w h o might appear before that House, .but from consideration of the peculiar situation in which the H o'lise found itself involved.

L o r d E L L E N B O R O U G H confessed he could not see any. of the strong objections against the present motion to which the N o -ble and Learned Lord had ail uded.

and wished to k n o w of the. N o b l e and Learned L o r d , if the evidence to which he had referred,, as f.uriiishea to-him on M r .

LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 8.

A' Mail from'the. Lee ward Islands arr ived this morning by the Princess Charlotte packet in 37 days, but later intelligence has been brought by the Favourite,. o f i 8 guns, which, is aniv-ed. at P lymouth with dispatches from Admiral C O C H R A N E , w h o was left all' Well at Sr. L u c i e on the rst of M a y . T h e date of these dispatches opens to us, w c think, one fact of great importance. O n the rst of M,ay there was' no enemy's fleet in the .West [ndies, nor any intelligence in circulation at St. L u c i e or the other islands of an enemy's fleet being on its w a y thither. W e are confirmed therefore in o u r opinion, that the West Indies is. not the destination of the combined squadrons ; for if it had been they wouid have arrived there before or by the rst of. M a y ; they sailed from Cadiz on the roth of A p r i l — t h e i r course to the West Indies would have been directly across the Atlantic, and they could have reached the West Indies in three weeks.

that if they could prove that the Petitioner resided out of England from a given time before the birth of the first child, until after the delivery of the last, the circumstarc'e of the lady having had four children in the in-terval was pretty strong evidence of her adultery.

T h e Rochefort squadron returned t6 E u -rope .by the W i n d w a r d passage.

T h e c i r c u m s t a n c e o f A d m . C O C H R A N E l a v i n g proceeded .to Jamaica, and the length o f : t ime i t -would take 'hi to to return from thence, accompanied with the suspicion, that, i u e r h a v i n g ascertained that the R o c h -f.ort squadron had left the West Indies, and being ignorant of the sailing of the T o u l o n and Cadiz; fleets, he might resolve to return to E u r o p e , has produced some fresh unea-sinecs in the'City. Between the time of his sailing from St. D o m i n g o to Jamaica , and his return from Jamaica to the W i n d w a r d Islands, the latter would be left exposed.-—

i In the. mean time the combined squadrons, if the West Indies be their object, as some believe, w o u l d have reached their destina-tion. T h o s e . w h o entertain this belief,

i think that the Spaniards w o u l d not have ac-companied the French had the latter been destined to the East Indies. T h e y recollect that the Rochefort squadron and the T o u l o n fleet sailed f iom port about the same time, and they remember that when the former reached the West Indies, it was generally Reported there, that they were to be f o l l o w -ed immediately b y a force from T o u l o n . — • T h e speculation ha2arded by those w h o be-l ieve that the enemy are gone to the West Indies , is, that they wil l either proceed to Jamaica, after h a v i n g taken on board a body of troops from Mart inique, or that t h e y wil l endeavour to Lake T o b a g o , D o -minica, and T r i n i d a d , by a coup-de-main and'thai in the event of their being success-f u l , T r i n i d a d , wi l l be given to the Spa niards as their share, of the spoil. , T h a t they are gone to the Westward receives some degree of countenance from the intelligence communicated to the Melpomene, by a BI.ig, the C o m m a n d e r of which informed her, that the enemy were gone to the West Indies. A few-days, h o w e v e r , wi l l in all probably rel ieve us h o m this state of suspence and -uncertainly. M e a n w h i l e we are sorry'to be p invented from placing implicit confidence in the assertion t int L o r d ' N E - L S O N has sailed, for the West I n d i e s . — T h e Wasp sloop is arrived with Dispatchcs from his L o r d s h i p , and with Letters from Gibraltar dated the arst u l t . — I t was doubted at that

v time whether L o r d N E L S O N had gone to E&e W e s t w a r d , and many imagined that he was still cruiz ing to the Southward of G i -braltar.

• Dispatches Tcceived this morning state; that .Rear Admiral K N I G H T had feceived intelligence at Gibraltar , that- the Cart h a . gena squadron of six sail of the l ine, which had-ieturned to Carthagena in great haste, upon getting sight of L o r d N L L S O N ' S squa-dron, were expected to put-to sea again,-in order to join a squadron now fitting out at C a d i z . In consequence of this intelligence the Royal Sovereign, of r i o guns, Qiieen, 98, and Dragon, 7 4 , were going through the Gut to intercept them. In spite of the odds against them, our gallant tars were in high spirits, and eager, loV a brush with the e n e m y .

W h i l e General C R A I G was at L i s b o n , the F r e n c h and Spanish Ambassadors re-monstrated with much w a r m t h on the shel-ter w h i c h the Portuguese Government a f -forded to the ships and troops under General C R A I G . T h e Prince Regent answered that ihe English convoy had been forced into the T a g u s by stress of weather (arribada). T h e y demanded that it should be ordered to

1 sea immediately. But-General CRA I G re-solved not to stir, till he was assured . there was no danger of his meeting the combined fleets of the enemy ; and in case of receiv-ing a peremptory order to quit, w e are as-sured that he had resolved to take posses-

• 3ion of the forts on the T a g u s , and keep his post by force, rather than risk fal l ing into the hands of the enemy, by sailing prema-turely. T h e Portuguese Government ev i -dently extended its indulgence to the utmost

11 of its p o w e r . ,

T h e f o l l o w i n g extract of a letter from jhe 2>ueen,. dated Gibraltar B a y , the 15th ult. contains the latest intelligence respect-ing the expedition commanded by Sir J , C R A I G ; the hostile fleet alluded to, we presume, is the Spanish squadron from Carthagena :

" L o r d N E L S O N is o f f for the W e s t Indies, with ten sail of the line, all in most excellent order. T h e Royal Sovereign came in h e r e w i t h us : S i r R I C H A R D B I C K E . R -TOJM was :at the R o c k , a h d h a s hoisted his flag and goes on with us. T h e r e are six sail of the line at Carthagena ready for sea ;

t w e are in great hopes of falling in wi th them. Gen. C R A IG has shifted from the Dragon to the. Lively, and all passengers are sent to the transports. W e axe all in the

dark as to the destination of o u r expedit ion. S o m e suppose S ic i ly , and others- M i n o r c a .

" W e h a v e j u s t heard that the C o m b i n e d fleets are gone to Ire land; if so, L o r d N E L -SON is unfortunate, in h a v i n g taken the wrong, road; but, I hope, it is only a vague r u m o u r , and that lie wi l l still h a v e the good fortune to fall in with them;.

" Since I began this letter, the Moucheron has a r t i v e d , after fa l l ing in with six sail of the enemy coming d o w n , and not very far from uSi O n e of them, a s i x t y T a u r , has lost: her bowsprit . I hope w e - s h a l j fall in with them in a da-y or t w o , as, I suppose, we shall be sent to meet t h e m . "

Some sailors belonging to a frigate, whose c r e w had made a great deal of prize money this war by the capture of Spanish treasure; determined on purchasing a horse for the use of the mess ; accordingly one of them was pitched upon to buy the horse. A s soon as this honest tar got on shore he went to a noted horse-dealer, w h o brohght out a ve-ry clever looking horse for the sailor's in-spection, w h i c h he particularly recom-mended to him as being a nice short bached horse.

D R . B R O W N E O F T H E C O L L E G E .

R R O M T H E D U B L I N E . P O S T . W e announced the death of this once ce-

lebrated political character i n our last. Fie expired at an early hour on Saturday m o r n -ing, of a severe , though not a .tedious i l l n e s s . — H i s complaint is said, to h a v e been of a dropsical nature, and the tone of the

: solids became so very laxat ive , that no re-medy cduld'be found to restore a naturally delicate constitution to the portion o f v igour w h i c h . i t original ly possessed.

D r . B R O W N E was gifted with p o w e r f u l mental talents, w h i c h he improved by al-most incessant study, and an intercourse with

;the most virtuous and most able patriot [scholars and patriot politicians of his d a y ; From every field w h e r e information or i m -provement might be had, he reaped a noble portion ; and as he reaped as much f o r (he advantage of others as himself, a number of the Irish youth are at this m o -ment in possession of a considerable share •of his vast industry. F o r .many years no person in the Universi ty w a s more beloved than D r . B R O W N E — h e w a s the idol of the students—they loved h im w i t h the affection of fond children,, for he strove to retain

their affections by a suavity of tem per, pe-cul iarly his o w n . T h e y g a v e - h im, in re-turn, their best and most honourable g i f t — they appointed him their Representative in the national Legis lature , and the F i s h House of C o m m o n s for many years listened with surprise and admiration to his virtuous and adored language.,—-Virtulis amor seem-ed to be his leading star, and at one period o f his life, whoever 'denied this would, appear absurd and heretical in the eyes of hi.s ap-plauding constituents.

O n questions of great national importance, D r . B R O W N E could speak with surprising e f fec t—with little subjects he seldom inter-f e r e d . — When Attachments w e r e / ' the o r -der of the d a y " he b o u g h t , al! his"' talents into action, and used the mosr vigorous intellectual efforts to protect the L iberty 6f the Subject against-the encroachments of® p o w e r and o p p r e s s i o n . ^ - s h a l l not readi-ly forget the z e a l ' w i t h ' w h i c h he protected the Freedom of the Press, that grand bul-w a r k of our L i b e r t i e s — h i s mind appeared bent on accomplisf i ingevery thing that might tend to support that essential pr ivi lege, and bis efforts were not a l w a y s u n s u c c e s s f u l '

W i t h the Opposit ion, it was either the desire or chance, of Dr.' B R O W N E to associ -a t e — h e supported their leading measuies he shared bis advocacy with theirs in behalf of Parliamentary 'Reform, and in the W h i g C l u b , those sentiments he proclaimed as. a

Legis la tor , he repeated as a Freeman. H e was a piofessed enemy to ihe abuse of p o w e r , and a lways stood foi ward, ihe C h a m p i o n of the People , when measuies were proposed, in the House of C o m m o n s which he conceived injurious 10 1 heir,Fights, or prejudicial to their interests. H e detested

B i g o t l y — it was a monster incompatible with C i v i l or Religious' . L i b e r t y , and! he despised all w h o worshipped it.

W h e n a number of the adherents or the Anti-Ministerial Party were induced to abiafi-don their old attachments, D r . B R O W N S was foremost in condemning their apostacy

— his language at that time, if w e recollect right, was forcible and br i l l iant—he a m a z -ed and shook the S e n a t e — a c c o r d i n g to a

celebrated Greek author, . " ' h e " was ihe w r i t e r o r interpreter, dipping his pen into Mind."— H e asked, . "" T o what purposes are F a m e , W e a l t h , and Honour now d i -r e c t e d ? " — a n d he fo l lowed the question by this memorable l e p l y — " T o the l o v e of" Pelf) to the love of P o w e r , to th'e l o v e of Prostitution !" b u t —

" Tempera 1nutantur &? nos mutarr.Ur in Hits'.!'"

T h e subject of this article is a ' s m i t i n g proof of the truth of this standing- max-i-o;. — He changed bis politics at the close of Jhe discussion of the grand question which went to change the Constitution of the countrv a n d t h u s , l i k e E D M U N D B U R K E , . le i -ML-nated his career by a deviation from those! sentiments of independence, which he . c o n -fessed, for the preceding twenty years, to be? the pride and glory c f his hea' t .

Shortly after the U n i o n , D r . B R O W N E was appointed P r i m e Serjeant, and it is sup--posed, had he survived much longer, he would have obtained a situation on ihe; B e n c h .

H e was. one of the Senior F e l l o w s and. Senior Proctor of Tr ini ty Col lege , a Doctor of C iv i l Law's , K i n g ' s Professor of G r e e k , & c . &c.—- F o r a length of time he held the V i c a r Generalship of the diocese of K i i d a r c -and also practiced in the Courts as an emi-nent, though not a leading Bair is ter . '

H e was unanimously elected to the com-masd of the Col lege C o i p s when it was formed in 1 7 9 7 , and appeared about a month ago on parade, for the last time. >- '

D r . B R O W N E was a native of A m e r i c a , which country he left at an early age, and, it is reasonable to imagine, f r o m his situations in the C o l l e g e and his exenidns as a L a w y e r , that be died possessed of considerable p r o -perty.

" One hundred vessels are stated to, have been takeii and destroyed in the West Indies, which loss, however great, is stated to be nothing in comparison with the damage sustained in the burning Roseau, in which the French-had no share. It appears that it had been inten'ded to take and keep possession of D o -

minica, but which plan wai abandoned in .order to assist S.t, Domingo; which, on the arrival of the squadron there, had been besieged thirty days by 8,000 Negroes; before the squadron set sail from thence for Europe, the siege had been raised, in con-sequence of the seasonable Supply of warlike stores •and provisions sent in therefrom the Fleet.—Marti-nique is novv in so formidable-a state, as to set every hostile attempt at defiance. ';- :„ ,

" The French conducted theiiiselves with all that propriety,required by policy, and commanded by the still more important considerations -of ihe interest of fiumatiity.' They have been far from fol!o\ying-.the-. example given us every year by the English^ when " they bombarded, for pure pastime; Havre, Dieppe, Fecamp, &c. with no other end in view than to injure the peaceable inhabitants of the towns and uountry ; odious expedition's," which are attended with no other result than to kill women and chil-dreri,' ahd which could only be planned by Ministers as Cowardly as they are impolitic.

" The conduct of our squadrons is, very different. E v e r y t h i n g , however, has bounds, and we think we may foretell to the English, that whenever they again bombard tis in such a manner, against all the.

rights'of war; it is' extremely likely, -tfyat. p o t h e r ,-expedition, may caiTy, firje and bloodshed,, to t'r.eir-co-

lonies, .since they have so very often., forgotten that .w.ar"..has..its laws, ih which peaceable,, inhabitants ought to find protection. Experience has just proved, that we might have ravaged lour of-their colonies' arid put the inhabitants to the sword, arid that if we: have not done so, it is because we did ndt wish to do. so. But in Princes generosity is sometimes weak-ness. Send .expeditions against our flotilla if. .you

( like, you have to cope with armed vessels — b u t slay not the peadeful cultivator, the simple inhabitant of the coasts ; or if you do, dread that terrible repri-sals may follow one day or other. Carry on the war bravely as you ought to do in the nineteenth century. Al l mankind is interested in i t ; but j f the war is to consist in causing unarmed.individuals to shed tears, reflect that a single tear shed by a Franchman shall Be paid for dearly by an Englishman, whatever part of the world he may. inhabit.—Moniteur.

" Sincethe English call the late operation -of our squadron in the West Indies plunder, it is but- just they should know that this plunder will not be over so soon as they think. We flatter ourselves eyen , that ere a week has passed over our heads, intelli-gence from emery 'fart of theiOorld will announce to (herEnglish commerce other event s of- the like nature. W~e shall.,then print, perhaps, a little work compos^ ed under the. eyes of Mr. P I T T , and published-by , his.orders a short time before the first hostilities, in order to establish the propriety, the advantages, and the.necessity of a perpetuity of war against'France. —-This perpetual war then appeared suitable, adVan- .

.'tageous, and necessary to British rapacity, and to that pride which was even then misplaced and now nothing less than-ridiculous. T h e proud, the pow-erful; the circumspect English,- hear the departure of . the French fleet spoken of when it has taken Do-

- minica ; -of the departure of the Toulon squadron when it. has passed the Streights ; they "will -hear no ' more of it for some months.

' " Lastly, they have not heard of. the second Rochefort squadron, sailed a long time since, and which the English Frigates came to watch and ob-serve not more than eight days ago. We shall, say nothing concerni ng several large frigates, which ha ve been.sent out o f our ports, to which .the English rhay attach little importance, but Which will strike them a blow on those coasts they think hardly known to our seamen. T h e y have been dreaming that there is no longer any wood in.our forests and arsenals— that there exists no longer a maritime population on ourcoast : let'them learn,.however, that there are no less than thirty men of war on. our stocks, all of which will be ready for sea in eighteen months — Were all the squadrons which the Emperor has sent forth to perish, after having laid waste the English commerce, great fleets are preparing, and numerous young men are ready to man them. It would be easier for the King of England to be crowned King of France, in Paris itself, than, to disinherit the. great nation from the commerce of the world. It is not that we entertain the.haughty idea of preventing England from being a great powerful nation,-1 but we wish to share with them the commerce 6f India and America ; and we will not suffer the English to ha ve any posseesions in the Mediterranean, Gibraltar ex-cepted.

" If the English Ministry.purpose sending forth secret expeditions' to those possessions which are weakly garrjsoned, to what, point wil l they direct their-forces ? To the coast of Africa, where they are null ? To the isle of Ceylon, where they w i l l be but few in proportion to the danger f T o the coasts of Coromande!,- Malabar, and Bengal, where they Will also be insufficient f T o ; jamaica,, ,where

• they will also-be inferior to the. want'{.. . T o Canada, .tp Surinam, Demerara;-'&c.\'?., We do-not enter,tai-n the .ridiculous, pretensions.of conquering everywhere — b u t we wish every where.to:destroy our enemy, to destroy his commerce every where, to 'be, in .shirt, the strongest Where We'-pre'Serti ourselves.' The Insur-ance Companies wil l do well to augment their rates from day to day,,; for until peace be signed, they, w i l l have pretty pickings. We inform , them thus pub-licly, that there is notan important part of 'the .vast ocean, where French ships are not cruizing. But the'conditions of the pejru we are speaking of are simple—the Peace, of Amiens,- the' whole Peace of

• Arrciens, and. nothing-but' tin Peace of Amiens', France . will never sign any other." . . -'

After the Extracts we have made from the A foni-tc-ur our Readers wii! judge what degree of credit is due to the Dutch Papers of the 8th, which sta;eiii?.t u a private letter received here to-day from Paris, dated June.4,, says, that a general report prevailed then in that city, that Peacewas at no great distance.'^

Since our last,' London Papers to' tlie i i t h instant, inclusive, have been'received at o"ur Office. ' O f the destination of the 'combined squa'drMns. 1:0 certain intelligence has yet been received.. Tlie in-formation furnished by the. American vessel, (which wi l l be found under our London head of the 1,1th,) may be correct, and indeed the general, opinion in

- London seemed to be that the enemy were gone to the West Indies ; but, i f that was the fact, it is ra-ther extraordinary that the Rochefort squadron, which would have afforded so material an additional

force, would have returned to Europe, without ac-complishing any one object at all proportioned to the naval and military means they possessed.

Admiral CQLUNGWOOD parted with the Chan" nel Fl<iet ori the 23d ult. with nine sail of the l ine and the EndymiOn frigate. Five other ships of the line v/ere to have accompanied this squadron, -but were detained in consequence of the return of the French squadron from the Westlndies, , -

Our fleet off Brest is superior to the French, not in numbers but-in force, consisting of 11 ships of tl.-e line, of which jio less than 11 ar.eof three decks, besides frigates. T h e enemy has the same total of the-line, but only three 3-deckers — O u r ships are in daily expectation of their coming out, as,they have 7,1,000 troops embarked, and their-ships of the line appear ful l of men.

From the London Papers of the lath, received this morning, we have copied some very important arti-cle;, which they extracted from the- Parisa-n'd sfiuitli Journals.

The port letters received in London that morning mention, that-such incessant activity prevails on tlfe enemy's coast., that an idea is entertained of an kij-rcediate attempt at'ihva'sioVi being made, .':' -.r.J-r\~ •

These Papers contain no other intelligence, bein? almost exclusively occupied with a debate which took place in the House of Commons the preceding evening, on Mr. W h ITBK U'D.'S motion for .the Im-peachment of Lord M E L V I L L E . — A b o u t J o'clock tlie SEEAEKR informed the Plouse that he had re-ceived a. Letter from Lord M I L V I L L E , requesting permission -to be heard : the request being immediate-ly complied with, the Serjeant at Arm's was directed to acquaint Lord M x l v i i , L E ; who was waiting-'j'n the Secretary's room, that the House had acceded to his . request. He immediately • entered the House, preceded by the Serjeant with the Mace ; and a chair having been placed within-the bar, the S P E X K I A inforn.ed his Lordship "that -there was.a chair-for h;s Lordship t'o:repose himself i n . — H e immediately sat down uncovered,- but upon an intimation from his Son he put on his-hat for a moment, and then unco-vering himself rose and, contra r y to the general ex-pectation., entered upon his defence before MI .WHIT-s a . z i i ' made his Motion.—He spbke for upv.-ard's of two-hours.—The House listened'to' him' with the deepest attention.—Occasionally he was cheered -By s.ome.of the Members. A s soon "as he had finished, the Serjeant at.Arms, v/ho had stood, by'h:m v/ith the Mace during-the .whole of h.s speech, conducted him out. of the House',- with the same iorms with which, he had.been introduced.
