LONDONs HON DA r, JJNVART n. ft u reported that Bwnaparte has written a er to the King on the subject of Peace, in "hich he expresses a wish that his Majesty 'Will deig-n to return an answer from him- stlr.Witil this wish. it is added, Ministers U41ve advised his Majesty to comply. The$mb4ic delinquency announced in the Papers, if now appears is io the office of the paj master of the marines, over which the Hon. Mr. Viilars (son, or brotfier pf Lord Clareful on) has some time presided. The discovery was orriginally made by Mr. Crete,r, om his succeeding the Hon. W. Pole, in the, Secretary« and Mr. (roker. perceiving thai the balances seldom exceeded five or six thou- sand, pounds, was laudably induced to com- municate his sentinleuts to Sir J. B. Thomp- son i and it isnow demwnstralively proved; that there is a deficiency in the office aniountifsg: to CV,98,000 I Nlr. Vi liars gives wclitity for payment-, and will resign. 11 The Spanish papers state, that a subscrip- tion has been entered into at Mexico, when, 1!1 the short interval of eleven days, a volun- tary contribution vras made h, the inhabitants of ihat muniifcent colony, to the amount of sterling.. The Spaniards on this- occasion express their gratitude to their Mex- ican brethren.—" They lavish" (say they) upon us their treasures, in onlc" that wel may not In come the victims of !\r»>.i y. Let U. shew I hem by our courage-, our and our fliit, we are fit s of their generosity, and ihaLwe deserve Iheho- nourable rank of citizens and freemen." The inquiries, to which the establishment of the independent Btmnlfor Auditing the Public Accounts has given rise* have led to the discovery of some most ros malversa- tion of which the. public, we trust* wjI! soon team the particu- lars. The decision of six ofhiit Majesty's present Judges tipoit two cases of appeal that were submitted to them by the Commissioners., nj. J'axes, acting in the city of Canterbury, oug-htto be generally known in order to pre, tect the subject against, vexatious informations and unjust penalties :—- CA grg.-The Proprietors of two Caravans, o' four wheels each, with a tilled covering upon a carriage without sprmg., calculated to carry heavy g-oods, and employed throughout flif year to travel certain stages for that purport, drawnhy two hones ahreiL!ft, aud driven hy itic owners with rents. They occasionally took up and carried passengers lor hire, and charged ac- cording to the distances- They had never been considered as liable to be Assesscd-to the 5s. Post Master's Licence— or to the Post Horse Duly— but each returned and paid the Duty on two Draught Horses.—The Inspector and Surveyor for the Districts made a Surcharge upon the Pro- prietors of the. said caravans and horses, upon the ground that they were employed to convey passengers in the manner of public stage coaches or carriages. Against these Surcharges the said Carriers appealed. The Commissioners conceiv- ing a very material difference between carriage* to designed and constructed, and those built, for the av,ow«rf. purpose of conveying passengers but at the same time carrying parcels (such as public »tage-eoachc%). relieved the appellants and dls-, Wisseef the Surcharges. the and Sur- veyor being dissatislled,"requested the Cases to,, specialfy tht-Jildjes were of be that diterml' atiom'of iie,Comtytissioners, was rig'ii. It is tbe intention of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, immediately afterlhfj commence- ment of the Session, to *m.o*e an order to re. gelate thetirnc of hitroducmg Private Bills, aud also to appoint a day, after which no re- itort ofa Private BilF will be revived. The time aimojuted will he Ilarlier than that fixed upon last seqsion, which will expedite tile big. siness considerably, and prevent the Hons' from sitting when the Stlmmetls far ad- t'ncedt The French Journals abound tn misrepre sentalions respecting the a flairs of -I);Ilitl The Spanish Usurper, it seems, has issued two Decrees, one respecting the Find Arts, which he proposes to promote in Spajn by robbing atl the convents of pictures that had loug- been held illreligiou veneration t and as the best means of restoring the Art in Spain, the chief part of those pictures are to he presented to fjonaparte, in order to enrich the Gallery «t Petri*. The other decree diveltir- the Ecclesi- astic-ii Botlv of all judicial authority, trans ferring it wholly to the secular ttiagistrates. This Decree, among so religious a people as the Spaniards, will probably be considered as an outrage, and will, ot course, in- duce the Priesthood tcf increase the general detestation of the Usurper and his hordes of military ruffians. lsiei)f gnitrbon.-Th.e Isle of Bourbon, of which we tuLve lately rwivediuteiligence of the surrender is about 20 leagues long and 16 .broad, in longitimie bbol 20 east of Greenwich, and in latitude 22<> Srsouth It wa&was first diu- cover^'hby'thT' Prfrtiiguese, who called it Mas cariqne, or Jrfascareubasi- but other Europe 801 di*tin £ uu^e«Mt by the »atpe.of Appotdrii- 611, till ifce)tnr 1IM,w&en ,Mf: Flancourt, Governor of thj^ French settlements hi Mada- Jfnsirar, |»oasessiou of it, and called it fiourhou.

Bathurst, liife'Iy'tbc Rnvoy Extraor- amar-y from Great Uritaiii to tlie limperor of Ausiiia, has jest iliiistied his career in a tra- gical u'-iuner.;—As soon as he arrived here, symptoms of insanity were discovered in b irn, I On bis*pa<.sing tliro'ugh rt'rlenerg, these syotp- loins -assumed a more fatal character.—-And ii,re frojn tjiis cify, we have heard, thai he has put a period lo his exist- cure. n In somelhing like the same terms did the- Frencli Papers announce the death of Capf. i Wright—-He discovered symptoms of insanity j uponharillgof the defeat of the AuStrians, and ke cut his throat. Thus perished that, ',III gallant officer, thus has perii-hed that excel- lent Englishman, Mr. Bathuri>t, hut Heither of them, we feel convinced, by their own hands. It appears by inlclllllct reecised,Ias we undefstaiid, ia this country, that Mr. rJ¡¡lh- nrst left, 'Iicrtiii with passports from the Prussian Government, and in exteHenthealth both of mind aud body—ile was to pruceed to Hamburgh, to entbitrk for this country— but Hamburgh he never reached. At town near the French territories he was seized, as is sup posed by a party uf French soldiers. y iers. W'haJ. happened afterwards is not accurately a known. Hi" pantaloons have beee fjiiiid a ear the town Where he was sei/eA, nd aleflerin ihem to his-Wife; but riolhmg else. The Prussian GdO^vs^nment upon receiving the tti- (I the ^ee(iest fegret, and offered a-large i%^ard for the discovery of his I)otly.-No S"'cccss, ho Iivever, has ytH attend- ed the offer. Suspicion will universally fall' on the assassin of Captain Wright. That his pantaloons have bee« found, we imputeto the wish to haveaj, belieyed, on the part of Buonaparte, that he had been carried off by robbers. But why carry him off? Kobbers -I)ttt to carry otf the body would only encumber and expose them to detection. Besides, if he had perish-, cd by the of robbers, how c une the French Goyermpent b announce that he had put. an end to his own iife, art assertiou which the Prussian Government contradict by otter- ing a. reward for the discovery of his body— I lad lie laid violent hands upon himself, there would have been no need to offer any reward. is11) y wYti d His body would ha\e been found ^here the suicide was com ílJitted,V{h cl her he yl lives, we know not--it may be that he may have been carried off to ami there thrown into the Temple, to Ire butehered as Pichegru aud Toussaint ^ivd Captain Wright were.
