would be recollefted that hi# maislty's me flare

It oow became his duty to move a vote found.

that the urgency of the publicfervice required
that hi. majfty mould be enabled to raiie the

felt it, however, to he hi. duty to Hate, that
the latgeucfs of the fum arofe fiom the en

eXpencei had occurred in various branches of
naval fervice, particularly with refpeft to tit«
Ba'tio fleet, which had not, nor could they,
be whelly forefeet!. The total inercafr of cx
pences for thi« fervtce ameunted to 1,686,741!.
He felt it, therefore, to be bis duty to refort
to the houfe for a vote of credit for two mil
lions llerlieg to cover thia fum, and any other
iucidental expencea that might arife. If peaèé
fltonld fortuoately fpeedily take piace.the whole

but the »eceflity of fuel) a vote would be ob-,
vtous, when he allured the committee the fum»

LATEST FROM SPAIN.
Arrived iftis day, the (hip Prydent, captain
Crowninftiield, in 33 days from Algefira«—
Verbal' information by the captais is, that a
peac* had been concluded between the Preach
and Portuguese ; the terms of which were, that
part of the ports ia Europe and the Brar.il» to
he given up—eight millions ef dollars to the
French, and two million« to the Spaniards ;_
and the Englifh to be expelhd from their
part«.
The treaty was oa tha point of being ratified,
when an Euglifh fleet of 14 fail appeared off

two allied armies marched forward, and ere thi»

L ATE ST FR 9 M ENGLAND.
By the arrival at this part of the fhip Har
lequin, capt. Turner, from Liverpool, we have
received London papers to the :6th of June,
fovea days the latrft. From as attentive pc.
rufal of ihem, we do not find that they con
tain any frcfli intelligence of importance re.
(pedtiug either the military or political affair«
pf Europe. The few articles we have
tracled from them refpe&ing the military ope
ration« in Egypt, ar* of the fame date as thole
mentioned in lard Elgin's letter, already pub.
liflied—from Portugal nothing further had oc
curred—of the Northarn Powers, nothing had
tvanfpired to imped: the amicable accommoda
tion of their difference« with England. The
mod interfiling articles which occupy their
column«, ia the prefumption that il entertained
in England of tbe probability of a renewal *f
the war on the continent: this appears to be
founded 00 the meafurc« adapted by tb: re
publican troops of re-occupying all iho points
ef military importance 01 the right back ef
the Rhine ; on the rapid decline of French
flocks; on ike conluefs which at prefent fob
fills between France and Fruits; and by the
pains which the French government take to
difguifs from the public eye ibe real tituilioA
of affairs.
