EXTRACT FROM MINUTES OF CONFERENCES OF T H E POWERS WHO SIGNED T H E TREATY OF PARIS. CONFERENCE OF T H E 12TH MAY, 1815. The Committee appointed on t h e 9 t h instant, and charged t o examine, whether, after the events which have passed since the return of Napoleon Bonaparte to France, and iu consequence of the documents published at Paris on the Declaration which the Powers issued against him ou the 16th of March last, it would be necessary to proceed to a new Declaration, presented at the s i t t i ng of this day the following Re p o r t :— REPORT OF T H E COMMITTEE. The Declaration published on the 13th of March last against Napoleon Bonaparte and his adherents, by the Powers who signed the T r e a t y of Paris, having, since his return to Paris, been discussed iu various shapes by those whom he has employed for th; it purpose; these discussions having acquired great pobli city, aud a letter addressed by him to all the Sovereigns, as well as a note addressed by the Duke of Vicenza to t h e heads of the Cabinets of Europe, hav ing been also published by him with the manifest intention of influencing and misleading public opinion, the Committee appointed iu t h e s i t t i ng of t h e 9th inst, was charged t o present a Report on these t o p i c s ; and considering that in t h e above- mentioned publications, it has been attempted to invalidate the Declaration of Ihe 13th of March, by laying it down, 1. That that Declaration, directed against Bonaparte, at the period of his landing on the coast of France, was without application, now that lie had laid hold of the reins of Government without open resistance: and that this fact sufficiently proving the wishes of Ihe nation, he had not only re- entered into possession of his oi l rights in regard to France, but that the question even of the legitimacy of his Government had ceased to be wit n in the jurisdiction of the Powers. 2. That by odering to ratify the Treaty of Paris, he removed every ground of war against him. The Committee has been specially charged to take into consideration— 1. Whether the position of Bonaparte in regard to the i Powers of Europe has changed by the fact of his arrival at Paris, and by the circumstances that accompanied the first success of his attempt ou the Throne of France. 2. Whether the otter to sanction the Treaty of Paris, of the 31st of May, 1814, can determine the Powers to adopt a system different from that which they announced in the Declaration of the 13th of March. 3. Whether it be necessary or proper to publish a new Declaration to confirm or modify that of the 13th March > The Committee, having maturely examined these questions, submits to t h e Assembly of Plenipotentiaries t h e following account of t h e result of its deliberations: FIRST QUESTION. Is the position of Bonaparte in regard to the Powers of Europe altered by the first suecess of his enterprize. or bp the events which have pasted since his arrival in Paris ? T h e Powers, informed of the l a n d i n g of Bonaparte in France could see in him only a man who, by advancing on the French territory, with force and arms, and with the avowed project of overturning t h e established Government, by exciting t h e people and the army t o revolt against their lawful Sovereign, aud by usurping t h e title of Emperor of the French ( 1), had in urred the penalties which all legislations pronounce against such outrages— a man who, by abusing the good faith of the Sovereigns, had broken a solemn treaty— a man, in fine, who, by recalling upon France, iiappy and tranquil, all the scourges of infernal and externa! war, and U| » N Europe, at a moment'w hen the blessings of peace must have consoled her for her long sufferings, the sad necessity of a new general armament, was j u s t ly regarded as t h e implacable enemy of public welfare. Such was t h e origin, such were the < rrounds of t h e Declaration of the 13th of March ; > Declaration of which the justice and necessity have been universally acknowledged, and which general opinion has sanctioned. T h e events which conducted Bonaparte to Paris, and restored to him for the moment the exercise of supreme power, have, doubtless, in fact, altered the position in which he was at the period of his entering F r a n c e ; but these events, brought ou by criminal colusion, bv military conspiracies, by revolting treasons, c- 111 c r e a t e no right; they are absolutely null iu a legal point ef view ; aud in order to the position of Bonaparte being essentially and legitimately altered, it would be necessary that the steps which lie has takeu lo establish himse t' on the ruins of the Government overturned by him, should have been confirmed by some legal title. Bonaparte lays it down in his publications, t h a t the wishes of t h e French nation in favour of his re- estab. istiment on the throne suffice to constitute this legal title. The question for the Powers t o examine may be stated as follows:— Can t h e ( tonsent, real or factitious, explicit or tacit, of the French nation to the re- establishment of Bonaparte's power, operate a legal change in t h e position of the latter iu r e g a r d to foreign Powers, and form a title obligatory on these Powers ? The Committee are of opinion that such cannot by any means be t h e effect of such c o n s e n t ; and t h e following are t h e i r reasons:— T l i e Powers know too well t h e principles which ought to guide them in their relations with an independent country, to attempt 1 as it is endeavoured to accuse IhernV, " to impose upon it laws, to interfere iu its internal affairs, to prescribe to it a form of Government, to give it masters according to the interests or passions of its neighbours" But they also know that t h e liberty of a nation t o change i u system of Government must have its just limits, and that if foreign Powers have not t h e right to prescribe to it the exercise which it shall make of t h a t liberty, they have at least indubitably the right of protesting against the abuse which it may make of it at their espec- ce. Impressed with this principle, t h e Powers do not deem themselves authorized to impose a Government 011 F r a n c e ; but they will never renounce the right of preventing t h e establishment in France of a focus of disorders and of subversions to other States, under the tit. e of a Government. They will respect t h e liberty of France in every wayin which it shall not be incompatible with their own security aud the general tranquillity of Europe. In the existing case, t h e right of t h e Allied Sovereigns to interfere in the question of the internal Government of France, is the more incontestable, inasmuch as the abolition of the power which now • laims to be re- established there, was the fundamental ondilion of a treaty of peace, 011 which rested all the relations which, u p to the r e t u r n of Bonaparte t o Paris, subsisted between France and the rest of Europe. On the day of their entrance into Paris, t h e Sovereigns declared that they would never treat of peace with Bonaparte ( 3). This declaralion, loudly applauded by France and by Europe, produced the abdication of Napoleon and the convention of the 11th of A p r i l; it formed the principal basis of the negotiation; it was explicitly pronounced iu the preamble of the Treaty of Paris. The French nation, eyen supposing it perfectly free and united, cannot withdraw itself front this fundamental condition, without abrogating the T r e a t y of Paris and all its existing relations with the European system. The Allied Powers, 011 the other hand, by insisting 011 this very condition, only exercise a right which it is impossible to contest to them, unless it be maintained that Ihe most sacred compacts can be perverted as suits t h e convenience of either of t h e contracting parties. It hence follows, that the will of the people of France is by no means sufficient to re- establish, in a egal sense, a Government proscribed by so'enin engagements, which that very people entered into with all t h e Powers of Europe; and that they cannot, under any pretext, give validity as against these Powers t o the right of recalling to the T h r o n e him, whose exclusion was a condition preliminary to every pacific arrangement with France: the wish of the French people, even if it wen; fully ascertained, would not be t h e less null aud of no effect in regard to Europe towards re- establishing a power, against which all Europe has been in a s t a t e of permanent protest from t h e 31st of March, 1814, up to t h e 13th of March, 1815; and in this view, t h e position of Bonaparte is precisely at this day what it was at these last- mentioned periods. SECOND QUESTION. Should the offer to sanction the Treaty of Paris change the dispositions of the Powers ? France has had 110 reason to complain of t h e Treaty of Paris. This treaty reconciled France w i t h Europe; it satisfied all her true interests, secured all her real advantages— all the elements of prosperity and glory, which a people called to one of t h e first places 111 t he European system could reasonably desire, and only took from her that which was to her, under the deceitful e x t e r i o r of great national eclat, an inexhaustible source of sufferings, of ruin, and of misery. This t r e a t y was even an immense benefit for a country, reduced by the madness of its Chief to the most disastrous situation ( 4), The Allied Powers would have betrayed their interests and their duties, if, as the price of so much moderation and generosity, they had not, oil signing t h e Treaty, obtained some" solid a d v a n t a g e ; but the sole object Of their ambition was t h e peace of Europe and t h e happiness of France. Never, in t r e a t i n g With Bonaparte, would they have consented to t h e conditions which I hey granted to a Government; Which, " while offering to E u r o p e a pledge of security and stability, relieved them from requiring from France the guarantees which they had demanded under its former Government " ( 5). This clause is inseparable from t h e T r e a t y of Paris ; to abolish it. is to bfeak t h i s treaty. The formal consent of t h e French nation to the return of Bonaparte to the Throne would he equivalent to a declaration of war against Europe ; for t h e state of peace did not exist between Europe and France, except by t h e T r e a t y of Paris, and the Treaty of Paris is incompatible with t h e power of Bonaparte. If this reasoning had need of further support, i t, might be found iu t h e very offer of Bonaparte t o rAfljv Ihe T r e a t y of Paris. This Treaty had been scrupulously observed and executed ; the transactions of the Congress of Vienna were only its supplements and developements ; and without the new attempt of Bonaparte, it would h a v e been for a long series of years one of t h e bases of the public rights of Europe: but this order of things has given place to a new revolution ; aud the agents of this revolution, although they proclaim incessantly •• t h a t nothing has been changed," ( 6) conceive and feel themselves that all is changed around them. The question is 110 longer t h e maintenance of t h e T r e a t y of Paris, but the making of it afresh. The Powers find themselves, with respect to France, in the condition in which they were on the 3.1st of March, 1814. It is not to prevent war, for France has in fact rekindled i t ; it is to terminate it t h a t t h e r e now offers itself to Europe a state of t. iings essentially different from t h a t 011 which the peace of 1814 was founded. The question, then, has ceased lo be a question of r i g h t ; it is 110 more t h a n a question of political calculation and foresight, iu which t h e Powers have only to consult t h e real interests of their people and the common interest of Europe. T h e Committee thinks it may dispense with entering here into an exposition of t h e considerations which, under this view, have directed the measures of the Governments. It will be sufficient to recall to notice, that t h e man who, in now offering to sanction the Treaty of Paris, pretends to substitute his guarantee for t h a t of a Sovereign, w hose loyalty was without stain, and benevolence without measure, is the same who d u r i n g fifteen years ravaged aud iaid waste the earth, to find means of satisfying his ambition, who sacrificed millions of victims, and t h e happiness of an entire generation, to a system of conquest!, whom truces, little worthy of t h « name of peace, have only rendered more oppressive and more odious; ( 7) who, after having by enterprises tired fortune, armed all Europe against him, and exhausted all the means of France, was forced to abandon his projects, anil abdicated power t o save some relics of e x i s t e n c e ; who, at the moment when the nations of E u r o p e were giving themselves up to the hope of a d u r a b l e tranquillity, meditated new catastrophes, and by a double perfidy towards the Powers who had too generously spared • him, and towards a Government which he could not attack without he blackest treason, usurped a throne which he had renounced, and which lie never occupied except for the misery of France and the world. This man has no other guarantee to propose to I I11 rope than his word. After t h e cruel experience of fifteen years, w h o would have t h e courage to accept this guaranteef and if the French nation has rea ly embraced his cause, who could any longer respect the security which it could offer? Peace, w i th a Government placed in such hands, and composed of such elements, would only be a perpetual s t a t e of uncertainty, anxiety, and danger. No Power being able effectually t o disarm, t h e people Would enj o y none of t h e advantages of a t r u e peace; they would be overwhelmed with expences of all kinds; confidence not being able to establish itself any where, industry and commerce would every where languish, — nothing would be stable'. in political relations— a sullen discontent would spread over all countries— aud f r om day t o day, Europe iu alarm would expect a new explosion. The Sovereigns have certainly not misunderstood the interest of their people, iu j u d g i ng t h a t an open war, with all its inconveniences and ail its sacrifices, is preferable to such a s t a t e of things, and Ihe measures which they have adopted have met the general approbation. The opiuion of Europe on this great occasion is pronounced in a manner very positive and very solemn; never could t h e real sentiments of nations have been more accurately known, and more faithfully interpreted t h a n at a moment when the Representatives of all the Powers were assembled to consolidate the peace of t h e world. THIRD QUESTION. Is it necessary to publish a new Declaration ? The observations which the Committee have just presented, furnish the answer to the last question which remains to be examined. It considers, 1. That the Declaration of the 13th of March was dictated to the Powers by reasons of such evident justice and such decisive w eight, that none of the sophistries by which it is pretended to be attacked can at all affect it. 2. That these reasons remain iu all their force, and that the changes which have in fact occurred since the Declaration of the 13th of March, have produced no alteration iu the uositiou of Bonaparte, and of France with regard to the Allies. 3. That the offer to ratify the Treaty of Paris cannot on a n j account alter the disposition of the Allies. Therefore, t h e Committee is of opinion that it would be useless t o publish a fresh Declaration. T l i e miilet- signed Plenipotentiaries, approving the whole of the principles contained in t h e present extract from the minutes, Have affixed t o it their signatures. Vienna, May 14,1815.

T h e Local Militia Bill was read a t h i rd time; and passed. SUBSIDIES. Lord Castlereagh moved, that the House, should resolve itself iuta- a Committee of tl'. t; whole House, to consider farther of t h e Supply to be granted to bis Majesty. His Lordship conceived lliat he should be a c t i ng only in strict discharge of his duly, if, on t h i s occasion, lie stated to the House, not merely the amount of subsidies which it was proposed lo advance to our Allies, but the. u h o l e amouut of the . c h a r g e coining under the head of foreign yxpenditnie, wl. u li the. course of the prescui" session Parliament wouiij ba called upon to sanction. Of this hater slescripiinu was an arrangement that had beeu concluded with Holland, » i t h reference to t h e former < o. onies of t h at Power. It had been deemed expedient lo retain possession of the different sett. emeuts of Demerar 1, Berbicc, and Essequibo, an now comprising a maps of British property, and to furnish lo Holland an adequate remuneration. It, was true, t h i s was not a proposition of war or subsidy j but as it would be included iu the general foreign expenditure of the year, fie was desirous t h a t it might be t a k e n in t h e same viuw. For Ihe purposes of this compensation it had been agreed to pay one million ; ami, 111 reference to an object as irn- ' portaut to us as to Holland it- elf,— lie alluded to t he object of s t r e n g t h e n i n g the fortresses in the Netherlauds,— it had been arranged tjiat the Dutch Government should pay an equal proportion with ouiseivcs, so long 11s tlie Netherlands should remain under t i le dominion of t h e House of Orange. This would, c r e a te an additional expenditure of tw o millions, making all entire c h a r g e of t h r e e millions for Holland- 11<- t r u s t ed thai the principle of this arrangement, w h i ch had ..!- ways influenced tli£ feelings of our ancestors, . nt! been recognized at every period ol' our political lottery, was pne t h a t would meet wuh the approbation of t he House aud the country. In the application of this money, it had been agreed, that the interest oft t he debt arising out of a loan formerly negociaied by Russia iu t h e Low Countries should be defrayed. T h e whole arrangement was dictated, not by any desire on our part ot' colonial aggrandizement, but by a. general view and a full consideration, in which all t h e parties to it concurred, of t h e interests aud convenience of each respectively. The whole amount of the subsidies, to which Parliament would be called on to vote, was five millions; and here he thought it necessary to s t a l e t h e nature and exteut of those military efforts to which it w as intended to apply the sum iu question. It might have been expected, that the Allied Powers would have- contented themselves with acting up to t hu provisions of Ihe T r e a t y of Chaumont, by which each of the contracting Powers was pledged to maintain an efficient force of 160,000 men. He was happy to state, however, that each State was likely to bring a force into t h e field much larger t h an was required by t h e stipulations of t h e T r e a t y . The statement which he should submit ou this head, would shew t h a t our subsidies were only part of the means resorted to for t h e maintenance of the allied forces, a n d not t h e cause or the motive which led to the development. Austria h id already her quota of 150,000 men employed iu Italy, but she had also an army of equal extent 011 t h e Upper Rhine, constituting a force of 300,000 men acting against the common enemy.—( H e a r ! Hear.')— Russia had already called forth all the resources of her mighty empire, and an army had arrived at t h e Rhine, composed of 22.-"), 000 men, commanded by Marshal Barclay de Tolly, and accompanied by a considerable additional number of volunteers. There was also another army under General Wittgenstein of 150,000 men, which it was his Imperial Majesty's intention, as signified l> y himself to the Prince Regent, to employ against France, if necessary. Prussia had now an army of six corps, amounting t o 236,000 men ( Hear! Hear!)— in ti. e distribution of t h e aid to be voted to our Allies, Ihe House would naturally inquire what proportion » ai to be advanced to t h e smaller Powers, and p a i l n ularly t o Ihe different States of Germany. Bavaria one had furnished a force, consisting of t h e l. est troops, of 60,000, and he might state genera. I), that the whole force furnished by t h e s i n a l i e r States of Germany, including Hanover aud Saxony, would be 150,000, to which rnig'ij be added 50,000 by Holland, and the same number by Great Britain. The amount would then stand thus:—• Austria S... 300,000 Russian army on the Rhine 2- 25,000 Prussia..... 236,000 German States isn. 000 Holland 50, tftl0 Great Britain 50,000 Total...' 1,011,000 Great Britain would, in the first place, be called on to pay in mouey for the deficiency in the number of troops she was' bound to furnish by the Treaty of Chaumonti This would amount to 2,500,0001. at the very low price of 111. 2s. per man, to be distributed equ illy over the mass of force contributed by the smaller States. When it wa » considered, that to maintain a British force on the Continent, an expence of nearly 701. or SOI. per man would be incurred, that the subsidy to Sweden had been calculated at 401. and the advance to Prussia, in 1791, at 301. lie trusted the House wou'd agree with him that the arrangement was one, ill a pecuniary point of view, highly favourable for the interests of this country.— Spain had signified her disposition to act in concert for the aid of t h e great cause of Europe, but what particular point she was to take, he had not the means of describing.— The Noble Lord, in conclusion, moved a Resolution for a Subsidy of five millions, to be granted to Austria, Russia, and Prussia. Mr. Whitbread understood the Noble Lord to have stated distinctly that Sweden and Portugal were acceding parties to the Treaty: he wished to know in what proportion they were to furnish a contingent Was Denmark also an acceding party to the Treaty > Lord. Castlereagh added that he had received the most unqualified assurances from them, and they had ligned the Declaration of tlie 18th March. He was not prepared to state what force Sweden would put in motion : he apprehended she conld not now receive from us the aid she had obtained in the last war, and without it he doubted whether she could provide a large contingent. If tlie Honourable Member meant tp intimate that there was any flnnbt of the part Sweden would adopt, his Lordship begged to state that he had nomore hesitation as to the line of politics she would pursue, than he had with regard to Austria, Mr. Bankes admitted that we had a just ground of • war, but he doubted the expediency of insisting upon it in the mode recommended. As the cause was common, and all the Powers had the same object in its success, in his opinion all ought to be upon a perfect equality ; and although he concurred in the Address of the preceding day, it did not necessarily, as the Noble Lord had observed, pledge his opinion as to the propriety of voting the subsidies now demanded. His chief objection was, that though our Allies were to be equally lienefited, the principal burden fell upou England only, and the system of subsidy, of late years, had been carried to an extent severely felt by the nation. England was undoubtedly bound to furnish her stipulated quota of men, but he could not see why she should supply subsidies to the other Powers to carry on a cause of equal importance to all. It appeared by documents upou the table, that since the year 1793 Great Britain had expended in subsidies to foreign States, 46 millions, not including many other sums advanced under other names. Of these 46 millions 26,600,000 had been voted by Parliament within the last three years, besides an immense quantity of clothing and arms supplied to the minor Powers, and arms and money to Holland. He was decidedly hostile to any exertions or sacrifices on the part of this country, that exceeded those of our Allies, more especially in the present state of our finances. It was lit to look our affairs in the face, and we should then find, that though our revenue had augmented, our expenditure had increased in more than a double proportion. Our revenue in 1813 was 63 millions, and in 1814, 72 millions, being an addition of nine millions. What was our disbursement ? In 1813, it was 97 millions, and in 1814, 117 millions— an increase of twenty millions within the last three years. Such was by no means a cheering prospect, at the moment we were Voting five millions to our Allies fora new war, besides what we should be compelled ourselves to expend. Mr. Baring w » s at a loss to conceive how a person, who had come to a decision that, war was just and proper, should yet think it right to withhold the means of carrying on that war. He was not himself sanguine as to success, but he thought that there were rational grounds to expect if. As to the question of subsidy, it seemed pretty clear that this country could not contribute to the common cause such a proportion of assistance as ought to be expected from it, unless that aid was partly furnished in money. He must, however, say that nothing seemed to him more unwise than paying Holland for putting her own frontier towns into a state of defence; and he was at a loss to understand what was meant by a grant to Russia in consideration of colonies ceded by Holland to this countrv, which seemed a most incongruous and incomprehensible plan. Mr. Bennett thought that the expenditure of the country would be greater than she could bear; and he was afraid, that if we rushed into the war precipitately, we might, from the failure of our resources be obliged ultimately to submit to the approbrium of withdrawing from it disgracefully. Mr. Donglas argued on the necessity of war with lionaparte. When it was said that he had been reformed by misfortune, or that he might be restrained by the circumstances of the present times, he wished that the House would consider his conduct at the moment of his landing in France. Then lie stood naked and undisguised, and avowed in his Proclamations views that he had since thought politic to conceal. In his opinion, the tranquillity of Europe could only be secured by the extermination of the military despotism now existing in France. Mr. Whitbread observed, it was unnecessary for him t o say much as to the merits of the war, his opinion on the subject being already sufficiently known. He disapproved of it most strongly, and the more so be cause it was his decided judgment that the object was not so much to remove Bonaparte as to restore the Bourbons, and, finally, in case of success, to dictate a Government to France. But it was probably apprehended by those who endeavoured to disguise this ob ject, that, if it were distinctly avowed, the country would shrink from the undertaking. He was aware that Ministers held out an expectation that the war would speedily terminate. Indeed, this prospect had been distinctly presented by the Chancellor of the Exchequer and others, no doubt with a view to re concile Parliament and the country to the insane project in which we were about to engage. Yes, insane he would call it, especially as to the calculation upon its speedy conclusion ; for supposing Bonaparte were actually destroyed at the outset, who could say that his destruction would serve to put an end to the war who could say that the French armies or the French people would therefore submit to the dominion of the Bourbous, or to the dictation of foreign Governments, —( Hear! Hear!)— that all the enthusiasm and energy of the French nation would immediately dis appear? Such a hope could not be rationally entertained ; and would it not then be wise rather to look for security from an armed Confederacy, than resort to actual war. The country was called upon to supply a large sum of money to those States upon w hom so much of our money had already been squandered, each of whom had on former occasions accepted our subsidies and deserted us immediately afterwards. Sue" had been the conduct of Prussia in 179+, and the conduct of Austria and Russia towards us was notorious But the Noble Lord professed to think that he had hit upon a notable expedient, with regard to Russia, upoi the subject of tint Dutch Loan, which expedient w truly, to ensure the steady co- operation of Russia, to secure the possession of Belgium to Holland. From that expedient, however, he could expect no such result. Let Gentlemen bear in mind the couduct of Austria, which had never paid the loan site had obtained from this country, and for thepayment of the interest of which the people were now burthened with additional taxation, and ask themselves whether they couldconsisteutly grant the proposed subsidy to such Powers ? Whether they could safely rely on their adherence, or upon the faithful performance of their engagements? These Powers had deserted us already, and they would desert us again if it - suited - their interest ; and it was probable also, that they would desert each other— that they would split upon their own views of aggrandizement. This, indeed, was naturally to be expected from their disagreements at the Congress of Vienna, where each ofthose Powers sought his own views with the utmost rapacity. Mr. C. Grant defended the system of subsidizing foreign Powers, and begged the Hon. Gentleman to recollect the triumphant result to which that system led. He trusted the Committee would not hesitate to grant a subsidy, which promised to lead to a result still more triumphant and decisive. Sir J . Newport spoke strongly against the motion, as did Mr. W. Smith.— Mr. Stewart Wortley supported it. The House then divided on the question— For it, l6o— Against it, 17. Adjourned till Tuesday. TUESDAY, MAY 3 0. Mr. Serjeant Onslow moved for leave to bring in a Bill for registering Deeds, Conveyances, & c. in all the Counties of England and Wales, which, after a few words from Mr. G. Rose and Mr. Preston, was given. Sir H. Parnell presented a Petition from the Roman Catholics of Great Britain ; he said it was signed by upwards of 6000 of the most respectable persons, who all prayed for unqualified emancipation. DISCUSSION OF CATHOLIC CLAIMS. Sir H. Parnell moved, before he entered on the question, that the Resolutions of the House in the year 1812, relative to the Catholics, should be read, which being done, he said he had wished to have them re id with a view to point out to the House the progress which they had already made towards the final abolition of those laws which still aggrieve his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects. He would not then take up the attention of the House, by going into those questions of political right which had been so often and so eloquently advocated by the Right Hon. Member for Dublin. To his unceasing exertions, indeed, the Roman Catholics owed, in a great degree, ( hat relief which they had already gotfrom a code of laws digraceful to the country, and unprecedented in civilized nations. The Bill which had been brought in last year was not calculated to conciliate the Catholics, in cousequeuce of the clauses introduced into it, which they considered as subversive of their religious discipline. By these it was intended to give the Crown a decided negative in the appointment of the Roman Catholic Bishops; this the Catholics looked npon as an infringement of their religious rights, and therefore declared they cou'. d never consent to accept of their emancipation on the conditions then proposed, and he thought that no time was so proper as the present for examining how far the not having the control over the appointment of the Roman Catholic Bishops would be injurious to the established religion of this country, or how far the having it couid be necessary to its safety. Until this necessity could be clearly made out, he thought it would not be just to ask the Catholics for such conditions, or to be displeased with them for refusing them, or for not offering them of their own accord. He couid not see how the power of the Pope should be used as an argument against emancipation, for, if examined, it would be found that the Irish Church was extremely independent. The power which the Pope exercised was very little indeed, it consisted principally in regulating some canonical institutions respecting the discipline of the Church, and approving the nominations of the Irish Bishops when elected by their Clergy ; and for the last century and half, there was scarcely an instance iu which the nomination or election by the Clergy of their own Bishop was not confirmed by the Pope. He had said thus much on the question, to shew the justice and moderation of the claims now made on the Legislature, and to evince the necessity and justice of granting those claims. He hoped that a spirit of moderation and conciliation would pervade the House on the occasion, and if the motion he had to submit should be sanctioned, he would in a Committee move the Resolutions which he submitted on a former evening. One of the Resolutions he had to propose was, to release the Catholics from those oaths which were required on the coming into possession of property: this was a great grievance, and was often a serious injury, and almost prohibitory of coming into possession : of this a recent instance was given in Ireland, where a Protestant relative came into possession of a property of which he was not the next heir. The other Resolutions went to render them eligible to all places of trust and honour, and to give them those rights to which, as British subjects, they were entitled. The Resolutions also went to secure them in their religious worship, and of having this guaranteed to the army. It might, perhaps, be said, that the Resolutions contained no clause for the security of the Protestant establishment ; but he contended, that the best security that could be given would be that complete and cordial union between both countries which the required concessions would produce ; that grateful attachment to the Constitution, the benefits of which Roman Catholics would then begin to enjoy.—( Hear! Hear!) He concluded by moving, " That the House do resolve itself into a Committee, to take into consideration the laws which affect the Catholics." SirJ. C. Hippisley was not averse to the principle of emancipation, but he never could give his vote for it in the way iu which it was then sought. Mr. Yorke was convinced that those who voted for the Bill last time it was before the House, should now vote against going into the Committee to discuss it on the terms proposed by t h e Hon. Baronet, for the principle on which it then went, was that of restrictions and securities; and his Noble Friend who then sat near him ( Lord Castlercagh) had given it his support on those conditions. If the Hon. Baronet who brought forward the motion had introduced a Bill for reinov ing the Acts relative to the marriages of Catholics, or giving them better security iu landed property, it would have met with his hearty support. Such measure, however, would not satisfy the Catholics, who wanted au extension of privileges which it was impossible for Parliament to grant them, without endangering the subversion of the Established Church, and the'safety of the Constitution. Mr. Knox had long wished that the conduct of the Catholics should be such as to meet the wishes of the Protestants of Ireland; an accordance to their claims would then, he conceived, tend to strengthen the union between the two countries; but he was sorry to say no such disposition appeared among them, and he believed that if the Pope were to tell those persons that they should give up the Veto, they would not agree to obey his order. A memorable instance of this kind occurred last year. When the rescript of Signor Quarantotti, whodeclared that the Veto might safely be conceded, was brought to this country, every body must recollect the violent outcry which was raised against it by the Catholics of Ireland. In fact, it was not about points of doctrine or of faith that the Catholics associated; their only motive was to agitate the public mind, to spread political discontents, and foment sedition among the great body of the people of Ireland.—( Hear! Hear!)— It was for this reason that he should vote against the motion then before the House. Mr. Maurice Fitzgerald was surprised that any Gentleman could slill be found so insensible to justice as to refuse a large body of people those political rights and privileges to which they were entitled. At all events, he did not sec why a Committee should be refused, for that Committee might adopt just such a Bill as the one which the Right Hon. Gentleman ( Mr. Yorke) expressed his readiness to support. Mr. Serjeant Best said It appeared to him that the question was now brought forward by the Catholics in A shape in which their leaders knew and intended should be rejected. That House was not td be dictated to, or told the manner in which any measure outfit to be- brought forward ; and if he had lid other motive than this, it would alone be sufficientto induce him to oppose the motion. He alluded to an expression used iu a pamphlet by Dr. Milner, which stated, that he did not know whether the arm of power might not be lawfully raised against an heretical King. He wished to know if this doctrine was to be disavowed; and Until it was, he would not assent to the grant of any further privileges. Mr. Ponsonby said, he conceived the time at which thequestiou wasagitated, was by nomeaus judiciously chosen. He should not himself be bound, by voting to go into a Committee, to any of the Resolutions proposed by the Right Hon. Baronet. He considered the question not merely as a Catholic, but also as a Protestant question; and it remained for the Catholics tosay how far they could comply with the wishes, or, if they pleased to call them so, the prejudices of their Protestant countrymen. Mr. Peel declared, that his objection to the motion was, that it derogated from the dignity of the House to eutert tin it. The House would give no satisfaction to the Roman Catholics of Ireland, so long as clauses in the least restrictive were adopted by way of security. Iu tlie year 1813, the Catholic Board had resolved to re- adopt the resolution of 1810, which denied the right of Parliament to interfere with the religion of that Body. Dr. Dromgoole had afterwards declared that the Established Church must fall, that the hand of decay was upon it, and that it had lasted as long as any novelty could. The Resolution of the Roman Catholic Prelates went equally to disclaim those provisions which tended to secure the Protestant faith. On the 21st of May, 1813, Dr. John Milner had circulated a Catholic Memorial at the door of that House; and on the 29lh, the Catholic Board resolved that the said Dr. Milner still possessed their confidence and gratitude. Sir J. Newport said, he utterly disapproved of taking the violence of individuals as the criterion of a public cause. The Right Hon. Gentleman was of opinion that the whole matter was to rest till the Catholics should forego all soreness of feeling, and approach the House in a perfe tiy civil guise. Now, one of the most staunch o, posers of the Catholics had to- night confessed he Was ready to admit some of the Catholic claims; yet, how could they come at his accession, unless they consented l o g o into a Committee? He would eoi j u r e the House to reflect, that after they had been subsidizing foreign Allies, it was not good policy toparalize four or five millions of our own peop. e, by refusing to ir ijuirt into their grievances. Mr. B. Bathurst, from a persuasion that no question of such importance as to affect the religion of a country ought to i> e disposed of in a summary way, wished the House might assent to go into a Committee, were it only for the purpose ofobi lining further information as to the sentiments ofthose ersjns who appeared to direct the Catholic Body. Yet, he yvou d admit he thought it better to resist unqualified demands on the outset, than even by imp icaiiou o indulge the hope of their admission. Lord Binning was adverse to an unrestricted emancipation, though he yvou d vote for going into a Committee. Mr. Bankes was of opinion, that without some security, or some restrictions, it would not be proper for the House to agree to the Resolutions for which the Committee was proposed. Lord Castlereagh said, his sentiments had not in the least varied from what they had formerly been. But he must express his dissent from the entire and unqualified emancipation of the Catholics. Mr. WhitGread, Mr. W. Pole, Mr. V. Fitzgerald, Mr. Elliot, and Mr. Huskissou, expressed their concurrence in referring the Catholic Claims to a Committee. Mr. Grattan, though decidedly against the unqualified emancipation of the Catholics should nevertheless firmiv advocate an exteu'siou of their privileges, iu so far as they were not likely to militate against the principles of the Constitution: he should therefore vote for the motion. Sir It. Parnell having made a few observations in reply, tiie House divided.— For the motion, 147 Against it, 228 Majority, 81. WEDNESDAY, MAY 3 1. GRANT TO THE PRINCE REGENT. Lord Althorp moved for a Committee to inquire into the mode in which the 100,000granted to the Prince Regent, on liis accession to the Regencv, had been expended. The House, he thought, must feel itself interested iu wishing for an explanation on this subject; for, as money had been paid into the hands of the Commissioners for the purpose of defraying the debts of the Prince of Wales, he did not think it proper that the specified grant should haveheet. used forany other purpose than that for which it had been exp. iciliy intended. Lord Castlereagh contended that the money had by no means been misapplied, the words of the Act being, that the sum voted should be expended in such a wa y as was best calculated to support the dignity of the Prince, on his assumption ofthe Regency. Tne 100,0001. which had been voted went among several creditors to whom his Royal Highness had been indebted; but those debts had only been contracted from the time of his being appointed Regent to that of his having got rid of the restrictions. When lie had got rid of those restrictions, he gave up his incomers Prime of Wales, with the exception of a small portion which he had placed in the hands of Commissioners to pay off some debts which he had previously incurred ; and orders had been given to those Commissioners not to pay any debts which had been contracted previously to his assumption of the unrestricted power as Regent. But he contended, that it was the same whether the sum of 100,0001. which had been granted to him was applied for the payment of former or receut expence's; for if it went to pay former debts, that part of his revenue as Prince of Wales yvhich had been left for that purpose would be thesoonerredeemed andcarricd to the Consolidated Fund. By giving up his income as Prince of Wales, he contended that his Rot al Highness had acted with generosity and liberality to the country. Mr. Tierney maintained that the sum granted yvas for a particular purpose, to which it had not been applied; and by no means a free gift, to be used in any way which may be thought most answerable to temporary convenience. The services for which it had been given were distinctly stated under different items. Those items, therefore, by the misapplication of the grant, would be twice paid by the public. He denied that the Prince Regent had a right to his income as Prince of Wales after he came into possession o f t h e Royal Revenue. Mr. Leach entered into a justification of the manner in which the money had beenapplied, and maintained that the spirit of the Act had been in no way violated, though the letter was not strictly adhered to. Mr. W. Wynne said, there was no measure that went more directly against the privilege? of Parliament, and against the spirit of the Constitution, than that yy liich was now the subject of discussion. It was most unjustifiable to apply public money granted by Parliament to any other purpose than thatspecifically stated in the Act of Parliament. Mr. Ponsonby argued on the same grounds. The motion was negatived by a majority of 120. The Lottery Bill was read a third time The Resolutions for granting additional Stamp Duties yvere agreed to, with the exception of those upou Newspapers, the consideration of which was deferred. L O N D O N , • The Elector of Cassel has, by the desire of th » various European Courts, as represented at Conof A Declaration of War by the King of Spain against Bonaparte was published at Madrid on the 2d ult, and signed by the King himself. It begins by giving an account of the. atrocities of the French Revolution from the rhurder of Louis XVI. to the present Usurpation of him whom he calls a monster that delights in blood, and an enemy of the Christian religiotl; he notices most of the great events that have occurred during the last twenty- two years, as well as his own long captivity ; and declares, that he will join and co- operate with the other Sovereigns in carrying on the war against Bonaparte, until that disturber of the world shall be destroyed. Some people have been tried at Madrid, and sentenced to several years imprisonment, for expressing joy at the return of Bonaparte to Paris, and wishes for his success; The Anniversary of Ferdinand's return front his long; captivity, was appointed to be celebrated on the 23d ult. at Madrid by a general illumination; A Proclamation is in circulation at Rousillon, said to be by the Emperor of Russia, iu which, after asking the Parisians what they have done with Louis XVIII a sacred deposit confided to their hands by him, in conjunction with his Allies, he tells them, that if they did not displace Napoleon by the end of May, he will not leaves in that city one stone upon another. Jerome Bonaparte, the Empress Mother, Cardinal Fesch, with others of the family, have arrived at Paris from Naples. The English squadron, consisting of eight ships, has sailed from Genoa, directing its course to Naples. According to the Paris Papers, the utmost activity prevails in completing the fortifications of the capital, which it is probable Bonaparte will not quit, until his good city of Paris shall be secured to him iu this way. The effect of the landing of J V I . de la Roche Jacquelin in La Vendee has excited no common alarm; troops and artillery have been dispatched with the greatest rapidity to different points of that quarter. Letters from Barcelona state, that all the efforts of Bonaparte's adherents to rouse the people in his cause, in the neighbouring frontier departments, produce but little effect. The small garrison at Perpignan were lately ordered to proceed to the interior, but even the Governor, General Robert, refused. Marshal Suchet arrived next day and harangued the troops, but before he could produce any effect, he was suddenly called away by an express from Paris. Intelligence from Brussels, dated May 22, says— " The desertion among the French troops continues; and Bonaparte has declared Lille and Dunkirk in a state of rebellion, on account of their attachment to the King. He has imposed upon Lille a forced loan of three, millions of francs, and upon Dunkirk one of a million and au half. Numerous fugitives from Dunkirk, Calais, Havre, and other places, who have arrived here, give the most melancholy accounts of the present state of France. Bonaparte employs the most violent measures to extort money from the people, especially in the northern departments, yvhich are distinguished by their attachment to the King. All provisions are seized without mercy, and the soldiers are quartered upon the citizens, and live at discretion. At Marseilles fresh disturbances have broken out. The theatres are shut, and dare not be opened again. The spirit ofthe people iu the South issueh, that on the least co- operation and support from the Allies, a general rising against Bonaparte will immediately take place." The city of Marseilles, one of the most populous, and formerly one of " the most commercial and wealthy in all France, has been declared in a state of siege, and the national guards have been disbanded. The intelligence from the interior of France, even from tl) e statements of the French Papers, clearly shews that the intruding Government by no means accords with the general wish of the nation ; and so fur confirms the statement of Lords Liverpool and Castlereagh respecting the dispositions of the French people. Royal Highness, in His . son, the Electoral gress, assumed the style addition to that of Elector. Prince, is to be addressed by the title of Highness only. A letter received from Algiers states, that on the 22d of March, the reigning Dey was Poisoned by his Negro cook ; upon which event, the Chief Minister was proclaimed in his place ; but on the 7th of April, he was strangled, and the Aga Omar was proclaimed. During these revolutions, there were scarcely any commotions outside of the palace walls— but few lives were lost; and at the above date tranquillity was fully restored. The Allies, it is supposed, will postpone the commencement of hostilities, till the arrival of the whole of the expected Russian force. There are, however, at present, five armies on the French frontiers, each superior to the force immediately opposed to i t ; the Duke of Wellington's consists ot from 30,000 to 100,000, on the north ; Marshal Blucher's, of 100,000, on the north- east; Prince Schwartzenberg's, which includes the Bavarians, and is perhaps the strongest of the whole, between Manheim and Basle; Count Bubna's, of 40,000, on the edge of Dauphiny, and an Austrian corps of 3 0 , 0 0 0 meu, on the frontier of Provence. The Russians continue to approach by rapid marches; several regiments have passed through Prague; and on the 19th the first Russian column began to march through Nuremberg, which is not more than 150 miles from the Rhine. From Dusseldorf we learn, that 2 0 0 , 0 0 0 Prussians have arrived on the Rhine; and that on the Upper Rhine have arrived 52,000 Bavarians, 20,000 Wirtemburgers, 12,000 Badeners, and 8 , 0 0 0 Hessians. The French armies have meanwhile moved their head- quarters; that of the army o f t h e Rhine being carried to Neiderbrunn, and that of the North backward to Laon— a circumstance yvhich seems to prove the inferiority of Bonaparte's force, his wish to occupy the allied troops in masking- the frontier fortresses, and his intention to carry on a defensive war. Happily France can found no hopes on the co- operation of Murat; for though some Journals speak of his being joined by 2 0 , 0 0 0 Italian Confederates, others, with more of probability, assert, that he is actually besieged in Ancora. It certainly is no small confirmation of the desperate state of his affairs that Jerome Bonaparte yvith his mother and uncle have lately left Naples, and actually arrived in Paris. The French Papers represent the regular French army to be comprized of about 3 0 0 , 0 0 0 men, exclusive of 200,000 whom they style citizen soldiers. They take their estimate of the Allied Forces at only one half of what Lord Castlereagh has stated to be their amount. The Russians they set down at only 110,000, who, they say, will not arrive at the frontiers before the end of June. The English, Dutch, Belgians, and Hanoverians, are estimated, in the same way, at only 70,000, and so of the rest. By this species of misrepresentation, it is attempted to inspire the French with confidence against the impending attack of insulted and outraged Europe. The manufactories of arms in Paris are represented to be in full activity; 2,400 muskets are said to be delivered daily. Lord Burghersh, in a letter from Rome of the 11th May, states, that the Rivoli has captured the Melpomene French 44- gun frigate in the Mediterranean. The Melpomene had twenty- five killed and fifty wounded. On Saturday night the Princess Charlotte of Wales honoured Covent- garden Theatre with her presence. Her Royal Highness sat in the Regent s box, and was greeted with universal plaudits." The Duchess D'Angouleme, accompanied by Madame La Cointesse Hamas, and attended by a small retinue, embarked on board one of the Royal yachts on Saturday morning, and sailed for Ostend, in order to proceed from thence to Ghent, on a short visit to her Royal Relative, Louis XVIII. The white flag being hoisted on this occasion, in union with the British standard, every vessel that the Royal yacht passed dowfi the river saluted her with three cheers. Vice- Admiral Sir Richard Strachan proceeded to Plymouth on Saturday, to take the command of the division of the Channel Flew at that port. The following ships received orders to sail on Sunday from Portsmouth :— the Bombay, 74, Capt. Bazely ; Spartan, Captain Hornby; and Amelia, Hon. Capt. Proby, to reinforce the Reel in the Mediterranean ; the Dictator, Capt. Montresor; Traave, Capt. Codd ; Weser, Capt. Kent; and Aleeste, armce en flute, Capt. Lawrence, for Quebec, to bring home troops ; and the Abundance, Captain Oaks, with all descriptions of stores, for Quebec. Three frigates, and several smaller vessels of yvar, under the command of Rear Admiral Hotham, set sail from Plymouth on Wednesday s'ennight, and took a direction westward. It is supposed that this force is to act in conjunction with another of greater strength, iu order to effect the reduction of the islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, should those settlements not preserve their idlegiai. ee to the House of Bourbon. If captured, it is understood that they are not to be transferred to any other Power, but are to be held iu trust for Louis XVIII. Military stores, consisting of beds, blankets, and other necessaries, for the army iu the Netherlands, continue to be daily shipped from the Military Depot in Portsmouth garrison. The Gazette of Saturday notifies that the honour of Knighthood has been conferred on Lieutenant- Colonels Richard Williams, James Malcohn, James Archibald Hope, Hew Dalrymple Ross, Dr. John Sewell, William Coke, Esq. Lieutenant- Colonel William Osborne Hamilton, Captain Robert Mends, R. N. Also the investing Rear- Admiral Sir Charles Rowley, with the Military Order of the Bath; and permission to Major- General Sir G. T. Walker to accept and wear the insignia of a Knight Commander of the Military Order of the Tower and Sword, presented to him by his Royal Highness the Prince Regent of Portugal, for his eminent services in the Peninsula. Together with the appointment of Serjeant Runnington to be the Commissioner for the Relief of Insolvent Debtors, in the room of Mr. Serjeant Palmer, deceased. A gentleman, who had fallen asleep during the late debate on the Address in the House of Lords, having been ayvoke by a sudden elevation of Lord Liverpool's voice, observed, " it was no wonder his sleep was broken, when his Lordship was making a speech that was to disturb tlie repose of ail Europe." AGRICULTURAL, REPORT for MAY,— The sowing of Spring Corn is at length completed, but has been attended with considerable difficulty upon strong soils, in every part of the country." Wheats upon yvarm and dry soils areforward and luxuriant, but those upon clay lands, and particularly in t x - posed situations, have suffered considerably from the cold northerly and easterly winds aud chilling weather, which succeeded the too fatly mildness o f t h e season; and also in some parts from the grub and wire- worm. Oats present a similar appearance. Barley looks well, but that sown upon strong land was put iu late. Beans, notwithstanding. the partial ill effect of the severe weather, and the appearance of insects, are a promising crop. Clover, trefoil, and other artificial grasses, have also been much injured by the cold; but the crop of grass is most abundant, and has been so early this season, as to render cattle feeding uiost pleasant and successful, the turnips lasting until the grass was ready for the reception of the stock. Winter tares, rye, and pease, are good crops. The fruit blossoms, of which there was the greatest prospect, have been half cutoff, but there is still a show for a crop of fruit. Hops are said to have recovered to a considerable degree, from the late favourable weather. The quantities of hay and straw are abundant. Long wool iu demand; the markets for clothing- wool dull, and kept down by importation. Cattle of all kinds greatly reduced from the price of last year, excepting milch cuws, pigs, and good horses. Young store pigs probably at a higher price than can be remembered; full 18d. per pound. The lambing season has been most successful, with some exceptions in Wilts and Sussex; but considerable injury has been done to the lamb hogs, ewes; and lambs, by feeding too long and too plentifully on turnips.

I I By communications from the Continent, we have Reason to hope that the insurrection in La Vendee, against the authority of Bonaparte, has assumed a formidable appearance. It appears to extend throughout all the western departments, as well north as south of the Loire. The exertions making by the existing Government, as admitted in the Bonapartean Journals, give us some idea of its magnitude. A strong army is marching against the Royalists; artillery and troops are proceeding from Paris: among the latter are some of the young guards; and of such moment is their assistance, that they are forwarded in carriages. The Mayor of Orleans has been suspended ; from which we may infer that the cause of the Bourbons has not been abandoned by that city. The Paris Papers of the 29th ult. contain a letter from Nantes, dated May 22, in which it is stated that the news from La Vendee is satisfactory; that the insurgents ( as, of course, they are called) have been beaten at St. Gilles ; that at a subsequent affair at Aibenai, they were completely routed; and that among the wounded Was Charette, who it was believed was mortally hurt by a ball in the breast.— These accounts are sufficient to confirm the existence of a very serious revolt; and we trust that the allied army will not permit the enemy's attention to be solely directed to extinguish this patriotic effort, the existence of which is of the first, moment in the present critical situation of Europe. Bonaparte remains at Paris. The Champ de Mai has been postponed to the 5th of June; the French Papers, of course, endeavour to explain the postponement of this ceremony by stating, that all the Electors are not yet arrived at Paris, and that the registry of the votes upon the Constitutional Act has not been completed. We are, however, justified to entertain hopes, that some causes more fatal to the views of the Usurper may have induced him to require greater time for the exercise of intrigue and terror, and that the will of the French nation is not so generally in his favour, as his unopposed progress to the capital seemed to denote. In the contradictory statements we receive through various channels, which appear to have no other data than the objects the writers espouse, we are still in the dark as to the precise situation in which Napoleon stands. In some German Papers, it is asserted that he has offered to abdicate in favour of the Empress, as Regent for her son, and that Austria hesitates at this proposal. Others assert that Carnot and the Jacobins have demanded whether the war i s against Bonaparte or France ; and that, if the former, they will resign him to preserve the State. We can learn but this melancholy truth— that he occupies the throne, that he exercises all its authority, and that he commands its resources sufficiently to be in a formidable position of defence The King of Spain has issued his Declaration of War. It is in perfect unison with the language of t h e Allies, as far as relates to Bonaparte's Government. It observes, that " it is not peace that the Invader wants; he wants to be free from interruptions from without, that he may employ the armed part of the French nation against the greater and sounder part, which is unarmed ; that he may, in fact, become strong at home, for the purpose of again spreading devastation and slaughter over the civilized world. The late debates in the House of Commons, particularly the manly and energetic speech of Mr. Grattan, prove the danger by which we are surrounded— prove the necessity of a common union to avert its horrors, and clearly point out to every liberal mind, that much as one State is bound by the laws of justice to respect the independence of another Government, that independence is not to be exercised to the injury of others equally free. The news from Italy continues highly satisfactory Murat appears tottering on his usurped throne; and the signature of the Sicilian Ambassador to the Minute of Congress, as the representative of the King of the Two Sicilies, evinces that the Allied Powers recognize his Master's claim to the Neapolitan Crown, and that Ferdinand is destined to rise on the ashes of that beaten, hypocritical, timeserving regal mushroom, who has so long disgraced the Royal scroll. The return of Bonaparte, in accomplishing this purification of Majesty, will not be without its blessings; for it was humiliating to contemplate the Tyrant's most zealous satellite quietly sealed on the throne of one of England's oldest and most faithful Allies. The Catholic question has been again brought forward in the House of Commons, by Sir H. Parnell. Nothing short of unqualified concession will suffice. How lost are the leaders of this valuable body of our countrymen to the interest they profess to support! A demand for unqualified concession is to shut the door to consideration altogether, and leave them liable to some disabilities which every honest Protestant laments. The motion for a Committee was negatived by a majority of 81. We have no doubt that our readers will peruse with pleasure the important Extract from the Proceedings of the Congress, which we have laid before them. It contains the Report of a Committee to which was referred the question whether the change in Bonaparte's situation since the 13th of March, and particularly his offer to ratify the Treaty of Paris, rendered it necessary to publish any new Declaration, either modifying or confirming the former. The Committee having determined this point in the negative, their Report was unanimously approved, not only by the eight Powers which signed the Treaty of Paris, but also by all the other recognized Royal Governments, viz.- Bavaria, Denmark, Hanover, the Netherlands, Sardinia, Saxony, the two Sicilies, and Wirtemberg. Thus is all Europe unanimous in principle, and united in act. Even those Powers which adhered the longest to the cause of Bonaparte in the late war ( as Denmark and Saxony) have now given their full assent to the confederacy against him, and subscribed to the unanswerable arguments of | the Report) by which the sophistry of the French Government is fully exposed. POSTSCRIPT. Private letters from Paris state, th? t the landing of the Loyalists' Leaders in La Vendee, with the supply of English arms, has caused the Government to issue the most rigorous orders for the arrest of all the suspected partizans of the Bourbon Family throughout France. It is said that the correspondence of Bonaparte with Vienna is Uninterrupted, and that he is in the constant habit of receiving dispatches from the Empress. Advices from Buenos Ayres up to the 9th of February have been received. The Spanish Insurgents have been most completely successful against the Royalists, having defeated them in several engagements. After having taken possession of Monte Video, they crossed over to Chili, where they attacked a very large body of the Royalists, and completely defeated them. A vessel from Trinidad is arrived on the toast, which sailed on the 20th April, and brings the intelligence of the arrival of the Expedition from Spain at Carupano, on the Spanish Main, consisting of a very large flotilla, with upwards of 15.0- 10 men on board. Operations were immediately to be commenced against the Insurgents. The King of the Netherlands has institute.) a new military order, to be called the Order of William. Brussels papers to the 28th ult. and Frankfort to the 24th, confirm the intelligence of a deb rkatiou by the English and Sicilian troops in the kingdom of Naples. It is stated that 0 , 0 0 0 British, 15,000 Sicilians, and a large body of Calabrians, had beet landed, under the protection of a British squadron. A German Paper remarks, that Bonaparte holds frequent conferences with the American Ambassador, and that he keeps frigates prepared lor sea at several different ports. The Editor infers from this a probability that he is endeavouring, in case of necessity, to secure a retreat for himself in the United States. An important concession, in regard to the admission of cotton goods, is said to have been lately made by the King of Spain, at the instance of the British Ambassador. The most recent accounts from Rio Janeiro state, that the Achille, of 74 guns, Capt. Holies, was fitting up to bring Lord Strangford to England to sail in company with the Duncan, of 7 4 guns, Admiral Beresford. It was not settled whether the Prince Regent of Portugal would return to Europe in the Duncan. The Foreign Slave Trade Bill was read a second time iu the House of Lords, on Thursday.— In the House of Commons, the Bill for embodying the Militia was read a third time.— A grant of240.0001. from the Revenues of the Post- office, was agreed to, which is to be applied towards purchasing the ground, & c. for the site on which a new Post- office is to be erected.— In a Committee on the Bill for exempting Dissenting Chapels from the payment of Poor Rates, a clause was added specifying that such chapels only should be exempted that liar) a certain number of free seats iu proportion to their size. COLCHESTER, SATURDAY, JUNE a, 1815. MR. JONES, SURGEON- DENTIST, FROM LONDON, At Mr. Howe's, Gun- maker, 161, High- street, Colchester, RESPECTFULLY informs the Ladies and Gentlemeu of Colchester and its Vicinity, that tie per forms all the OPERATIONS upon the TEETH and GUMS, with ease and safety, and replaces ARTIFICIAL TEETH, upon the most approved principles.

He was conveyed to Addenbrooke's Hospital, and great hopes are entertained of his recovery.

The order for discontinuing an Advertisement for the Sale by Private Contract of a Dwelling- house at Great Bromley, was received too late, the part of the paper in which it appears having been printed off. On Sunday last three sermons were preached for the benefit of the London Society for promoting Christianity amongst the Jews. In the morning at St. Peter's Church, from Romans, ch. xi. 30, 31 ; after which a collection was made, amounting to 341. l i s . 9d. In the afternoon, at the same place, from Luke, ch. xix. 41, 4 2 ; when a further collection produced 121. l i s . 5d.— making together 471. 3s. 2d. And in the evening, at St. James's Church, from Amos, ch. ix. 11, 12; where, the collection amounted to the sum of 711. 12s. 3d.- The names of ten new annual subscribers, of a guinea each, hare also since been added to the list. • There is reason to hope, that, from the information given in the course of these sermons, relative to the present state of the Jewish people, a considerable increase of attention will be excited to their cause, and that objections which have been advanced against the attempts of the Society to promote their spiritual welfare will be removed ; the necessity and expediency of the design being supported on scriptural principles, particularly that part of it which relates to the giving them the New Testament in their own language. Mr. Wellesley Long has quitted Wanstead House for the present, having taken a cottage on the New Forest for the summer season. SHIP NEWS. FROM LLOYD'S LIST. FRIDAY, MAY 2( j. ARRIVFO.— At Gravesend.

A stable and chaise- house belonging to Mr. Potter, surgeon, also shared the same fate, and the bark- part of Mr. Potter's house, as well as that of Mr. Hammond, were considerably injured.— A fire also broke out in a cart shed, about two o'clock on Saturday afternoon, belonging to Mr. Bright, carpenler, at Danbury, which was fortunately got under, after destroying the shed, and slightly injuring the dwelling- house. • nan.

The undersigned Minister of State tmd of foreign iffairs of his Majesty the Emperor of Austria, laving informed his august Master of the coinmulication made to hiui by Lord Castlereagh, respecting the 8th Article of the Treaty of the 25th of March last, has received orders to declare, that the interpretation given to that article by the British Government is entirely conformable to the principles by which his Imperial Majesty proposes to regulate his policy during the present war. The Emperor, although irrevocably resolved to direct all his efforts against the usurpation of Napoleon Bonaparte, as that object is expressed in the 3d Article, and to act in that respect in the most perfect concert with his Allies, is nevertheless convinced, that the duty imposed upon him by the interest of his subjects, as well as the principles by which he is guided, would not permit him to engage to prosecute the war for the purpose of imposing a form of government on France. Whatever wishes his Majesty the Emperor may form, to see his Most Christian Majesty replaced upon the throne, and whatever may be his constant solicitude to contribute, conjointly with his Allies, to the attainment of so desirable an object; his Majesty has nevertheless thought it right to answer, by this explanation, the Declaration which his Excellency Lord Castlereagh has transmitted on the exchange of the Ratifications, and which the undersigned, on his part, is fully authorized to accept- METTERNICH. Vienna, May, 9,1815. FROM A GERMAN PAPER. One of our Journals publishes the following letter, which gives some new details as to the principal authors of the frightful plot which has replunged France under the domination of Bonaparte, as well as with regard to the means employed to procure its success:— " Three months had scarcely elapspd from the restoration of the Bourbons to the Throne of France, when the Jacobins began to manifest their discontent, and form conspiracies against the Government. Carnot, Fouche, and Thibaudeau were the. first who conceived the idea of overturning it. They usually met at the house of Tallien, who kept his room from the gout. Though these men had been employed by Bonaparte, they loved neither him nor his system, still less his former Ministers and favourites, therefore did not wish his return. However, they could, at all events, do nothing without the army, in which it was believed he had still a great many partizans; to ascertain this fact, some Republican Generals were sought out, and Generals Fressinet and Excelmans were employed to sound the soldiery. The latter sighed only after the return of Bonaparte. This discovery induced them to relinquish the plan they had formed of making direct or indirect proposals to the Duke of Orleans, or of establishing a Republican Government. They then made overtures to the friends of Bonaparte: Thibaudeau was charged with this task; he began with reconciling Fouche to Roederer and Savary, who had quarrelled with the former. The friends of Bonaparte were then gradually admitted into the secret, and in September last the first communication of the plan was made to Bonaparte. A young man, named Havel, who, tinder Bonaparte's Government, had been an Auditor in the Council of State, and since the new Revolution appointed a Prefect in one of the Departments, was entrusted with this mission. He naturally found Bonaparte disposed to return. When his friends were informed of this, their joy was so great thatthey gave a dinner of 150 covers at Very's, a restaurateur in the Palais Royal. The next point they set about was to procure money. Cambaceres, Fouche, and Savary, who are immensely rich, itnmedi. tely made considerable advances, which were placed in the hands of Carnot, who was appointed treasurer. . The inclinations of the Marshals were sounded. Massena, Soult, Suchet, and Ney, not only joined the conspirators, but even furnished considerable sums; and, in order to render the plan more complete, Thibaudeau was dispatched through Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and the Low Countries, to sound the dispositions of the inhabitants, and endeavour to excite attachment to the cauAe it was their object to advance, SUGGESTIONS ON THE RECENT RE- ELECTION TO PARLIAMENT OF AN EXPELLED MEMBER. On the recent case of Election for a Representative of Westminster, the established laws of Parliament, and rights of Election and Representation, are to be considered; and without lessening the authority of the one, the claims of the other deserve equal regard. In every court of criminal judicature, while the law ordains the appropriate punishment, it equally regards the safety and protection of the accused. " As there is no code in which we can study the Law of Parliament, we have but one way to make ourselves acquainted with it; that is, to compare the nature of the institution of the House of Commons with the facts upon record." In Parliament the Records and Journals of the Commons furnish precedents of acknowledged authority of its power of expulsion, and of disabling the person from becoming a Member during that Parliament, and sometimes of any future Parliament.— Scobel, 72. The following suggestions on the result of expulsion, as it affects a subsequent return, may perhaps deserve some attentive consideration:— The resolution or judgment of expulsion creates absolute incapacity for re- election. This wan the clear decision of the Mouse of Commons in the case of Mr. Walpole, and was recognized in the subsequent case of Mr. Wilkes. incapacity of being re- elected implies in its very terms, that any votes given to the incapable person at a subsequent election are null and void. If the votes given to one candidate are null and void, they ranuot be opposed to the votes given to another candidate— they cannot affect the votes given to stich candidate at all. Such was the decision in the cases of the Maldon and Bedford elections! The rights of the House to declare incapacity, and to expel, is recognized oil all hands. The consequence is, that vote? given for such a person are lost, because he is functus officii. In Mr, Wilkes's case, the House inquired, upon every subsequent, return of him as elected, whether there was any other candidate ? The return of him did not, nor could not alter the law, which would ! have been nugatory if he was, notwithstanding incapacity, eligible to be returned; and ihe County was not represented, save by the remaining Member, until Mr. Luttrell became a Candidate, and was returned; for if the votes for the expelled or incapable Member were lost votes, it followed that any other person who should have had only one vote would have been regularly returned, as if only one freeholder had voted at that election. The light of expulsion arises from some wellgrounded cause, else it would be wanton and arbitrary, and the cause of expulsion is declared in the Resolution. So that the incapacity of a subsequent return to Parliament arises rather from the offence which was the ground of expulsion, than from expulsion itself, which is merely the record of the judgment of that offence; and until that offence Is cleared away and absolved by a reversal of the judgment, if it ever can be, the incapacity must remain : as, if a Member should ever become an outlaw, and on that ground be expelled, or his seat vacated, this works his incapacity until the judgment of outlawry be reversed; and the House have observed this mode in their resolutions for expulsion; for they state the fact of the offence found, and then declare the incapacity ; thus the incapacity arises out of the crime committed, and not out of the punishment annexed to it by the House. But when the power of expulsion for a just cause is asserted and recognized, it creates an additional force to the consequence of the offence, in a similar manner as the judgment or record of a conviction works corruption of blood; as a datum from which all the consequences of the crime take operation and effect, and upon which sentence is pronounced. The return of a person not duly elected, or not elected at all, is void in itself, but he remains a member until that election be declared void.— Mr S. D' Ewe's Journal, 283, col. 2. LAW INTELLIGENCE. ARCHES COURT, DOCTORS' COMMONS. STRALLWOOD AGAINST TREDGER, CALLING HERSELF STRALLWOOD. This was a proceeding of nullity of marriage promoted by the husband against his wife, by reason of the marriage being unduly had. The case catne before the Court on the admission of the allegation. It appeared that both the parties resided at Newington, in the county of Surrey ; that in the year 1702 they agreed to be married by barms, and save notice to Ihe Minister of the parish for that purpose ; but there being no divine service performed at that time in the parish church, it beingunder repair, the parish book of marriages was sent to St. George's Church, Southwark, and the Minister of that parish published the banns of marriage according to the entry in the book, iu the usual manner; that iu the mon; h of August, in the same year, the marriage was solemnized between the. parties, on the site or ruins of the parish church of Newington, by the Minister belonging to that parish. And the question before the Court was, as to the validity of such marriage, so had and obtained, whether under the Marriage Act this marriage was null and void ? On the part of the husband it was contended, that this marriage was null and void according to the provisions of the Marriage Act, the first clause of which directed that the marriage should be solemnized in such church or chapel in which the banns are published, aud in no other place whatever. The Court ( Sir John Nichol), after referring to the Act of Parliament, and making comments thereon, observed, it had no difficulty in holding that all legal requisites under the demand of the Act of Parliament had been satisfied, and under all the circumstances of the case, was clearly of opinion, that this marriage was not an invalid marriage, and therefore rejected the allegation and dismissed the same. A pamphlet is advertised in the French Papers, entitled, " Pyrophores; or, the Means of Defence applicable in twenty- four hours to all cities, communes, roads, passages, or defiles which it may be desirable to defend against foreigners ! !" There is now confined in Newgate a man named Robert Taylor, who is so impenetrably deaf that he cannot hear the report of a pistol. He was arraigned at the last February Sessions, for stealing a feather- bed, & c. in a dwelling- house, but as he could not hear he could not plead. He speaks but cannot write, uor does he understand writing, and it cannot be ascertained from whence he came. EXTRAORDINARY INSTANCE OF FRAUD.— A few days since Geo. Field, alias Hewitt, alias Gibbons, was committed for trial at St. Albans, for defrauding several persons out of various sums of money under the following unprecedented circumstances :— It. appeared that he was discovered in the Meadows, near Christ Church, Oxford, weltering iu blood, with many apparent marks of great violence. Upon the cause being inquired into, he said he had been robbed by three villains, who, not satisfied with his money, nearly deprived him of life. The commiseration of the inhabitants of Oxford was strongly excited, and he was taken to the Horse and Groom, where a liberal subscription was entered iuto for the reparation of his losses. A gentleman named Richardson greatly interested himself in his favour, and obtained for him sums of money to a considerable amount. But he was ultimately discovered to be a villainous impostor, who, by his artifices, had deceived even the faculty themselves. Three soldiers had been absolutely taken up on suspicion of the robbery, but were discharged immediately the trick was discovered. P A R L I A M E N T A R Y P A P E R S , In Account of the Number of Benkrupt Petitions eutercd for hearing during the Years 1810, 1811, 1812, 1813, and 1814 ; the Number finally heard; the dates of their final hearing , and distinguishing such as have been heard by ihe Vice- Chancellor. From this account it appears, that iu 1810— 335 Petitions vert' entered, 41 were struck out; and 350 were finally heard. In 1811— 475 Petitions entered, 3 were withdrawn with leave, ti8 struck out, and 455 finally heard. In 1812— 499 were entered, 53 struck, cut) aud 6Is finally heard. In 1813— 622 were entered, 12 withdrawn by leave 63, struck out, aud 5S3 finally heard. In 18l4— 553 were entered, 12 withdrawn by leave, 93 struck out, and 528 finally heard. Of ihe above Petitions, 46 were fiually heard by the Vice- Chanccllor. The total of the above five years is as follows:— Petitions entered 2,504 withdrawn 27 struck out 308 finally heard 2,436 The Total Number of Petitions disposed of in these five years, is 2,771. In the late campaign of 1814, the allied Powers, having crossed the Rhine, took three lines of operation, assigning each to a different army, and to a General of known skill and valour. Prince Schwartzenberg, at the head of an army composed of Austrian and Russian troops, and therefore denominated the main army, entered by Basle ; and thence proceeded by the direct road to St. Dizier, Troyes, Nogent, aud Paris. Marshal Blucher, crossing the Rhine at a lower point, took a line of operation to the left of the Allies, btit having shortly experienced the mischief of this separation, directed all his manoeuvres towards effecting his junction. The Crown Prince of Sweden crossed the Rhine still lower ( nearer Holland) than Schwartzenberg or Blucher, and immediately advanced upon the line towards Lille, now occupied by the Duke of Wellington. The functions of each of the Commanders were as ditf> rent as their lines of operation. Prince Schwartzenberg was to force his way in front, whilst Blucher, and the Cossacks, were to clear the flanks. In the mean time, the Crown Prince was to masque the fortresses of the North, to the end that the conjoint operations might not be interrupted by sallies ol the garrisons. Whilst these three operations were carrying on in an immediate direction towards Paris, the Duke of Wellington, with his most numerous aud victorious Anglo- Spanish army, was occupying Soult iu the Garonne, and Sir T. Graham, with an Anglo- Dutch force, was clearing or masquing the Netherlands.— Such was the plan of the last campaign, in which, therefore, five entire and very large armies were employed. It is mentioned that an illustrious Member of the Royal Family, aud one much distinguished for his beneficent aud active exertions, fiom being disappointed in the adjustment of some pecuniary claims, has felt the necessity of disposing of all his valuable effects, and of retrenching his household establishment, so as to assume shortly all the habits of the most private and retired way of life. The patriotic and good- natured Sir Wm. Curtis was the occasion of a little gambol in the House of Commons, on Thursday se'nuisrht. During the absence of the Speaker and several of the Members, to hear the Royal Assent aiven to Bills, Sir William entered the Hou « e full dressed. It happened, that some of his friends laughed upon his appearauce. The merriment spremliug to others, some called Chair, I hair ! and the worthy Alderman humoured the joke so far as to step into the Speaker's Chair, from which he made a short speech, not quite audible in the gallery, upon the honour done him, and his resolution to do » his duty. The Speaker upon his return was probably informed ol the usurpation, that had taken place in his absence; but we have not heard that the Magistrate was sent to the Gatehouse. Miss Christiana Bonaparte, daughter of Lucien Bonaparte, at present resides at Hinckley, iu Leicestershire. Miss Bonaparte is a most accomplished young lady, about nineteen years of age, and is a daughter ol Lucien's by his first wife. . Several Roman remains were lately discovered by the labourers employed in erecting a malt- house iu Walcot- street, Bath ; they consist of pottery culinary utensils, several c oins, a tintinnabulum or sinall bell, a libre or pound weight, and nails. • Upon the authority of an agriculturist of considerable practice, it is said that the superior excellence of crushed bones as a manure, has been proved by experience. They are described as a most invaluable article to those farmers, whose distance from large towns precludes them from obtaining a sufficiency of manure, when the supply from their own farm is inadequate to their warns; such being their surprising fertilizing qualities, that a cart and two horses can, in one day, come for, and carry home, at a distance of fifteen miles, a quantity sufficient for one acre; that even this small quantity has been found to render an acre more fertile than one manured in the common manner; and that they also possess the valuable quality of retaining their fertilizing powers for several succeeding crops. A few nights ago a fine female infant, apparently about five weeks old, was left in a small basket at the door of Lady Harriet Courtenay, in Bedfordplace; it was wrapped up in a new blanket, and two changes of clothes left with it, and a label pinned to its breast, with the words, " My name is Ellen; 1 have no friends, and am deserted— take me under your protection for God's sake, and your little foundling will In; gruteful." The child was taken in, but what became of little Ellen siuce has not transpired. A scheme has been devised for paving London streets with blocks of cast- iron, instead of stone. MRS. SOUTHCOTT.— A stone has been placed over the remains of the late Joanna Southcott, in the New Burial Ground, adjoining the Regent's Park, with the following inscription :— In Memory of Joanna Southcott, it lio departed this Life December 27, 1814, agcd 65 Years. While through all thy wond'rous days Heaven and Earth euraptur'd gaz'd; While vain Sages think they know Secrets thou alone cau'st show, Time alone will tell what hour Thou'lt appear iu greater power. On Monday Mr. Serjeant Rumington took his seat in the Insolvent Debtors' Court; The Learned Serjeant stated Several regulations he intended to make, for the greater and more orderly transacting the business of the Court; aud noticed some malevolent aspersions which hud been cast on him by an attorney of that Court, describing him as a person totally unfit for the situation, aud charging him with great cruelty, iu neglecting to open the Court before ; but as such aspersions might hereafter become the subject of litigation, lie should simply observe, that it was not till Saturday night that his appointment was completed, and that lie had opened the Court at the first moment. A new Freemason's I^ odge, under the denomination of the Lodge of The Five Orders, has been opened at Salisbury, under the authority of the Duke of Sussex, Grand Master. The cow- pox has at length been introduced into the northern parts of Siberia, in which the smallpox has for many years proved so fatal, that it was estimated three- fourths of the natives were iilinually victims to that malignant malady. The crimes of boys in the metropolis increase beyond any thingthe Old Bailey calendar can furnish. Within a month, twenty boys, under fifteen years of age have been disposed of from Newgate in various ways; and eleven others were convicted during the last Old Bailey Sessions. Friday evening, the 19th ult. a large fish, of the porpoise kind, ( Delphinus Phocaena) came ashore with a heavy swell of the sea iu Ballyhome Bay, about half a mile east of Bangor. It having been cast within side of a bank of sand, it could not effect its escape, and as soon as it was discovered, a number of men attacked it with various weapons, and after asevere conflict they succeeded in killing it. The dimensions of this fish are as follow:— Length from the point of Ihe nose to the extremity of the tail, seventeen feet; girth at the shoulders, nine feet three inches; breadth of the tail fins, five feet; they are placed horizontal to the body. It is black on the back, and very white on the belly; has a large blow- hole on the top of the head, above and nearly between the eyes, which are very sinall, not larger than the size of a shilling. It has twenty- three teeth in the upper jaw, and the. same in the lower, and they check into each other like the teeth of a rat- trap. On Monday, the 8th ult. as a man was lowering a causeway by the side of a stable in the occupation of the Rev. Mr. Smith, of Colgrave, near Nottingham, hediscovered, a few inches below the surface, a black pot, in which were deposited 126 pieces of silver coin, viz. half crowns, shillings, and sixpences, of Elizabeth, James 1. and Charles 1. and also one Spanish dollar, of the date of 1G;) 7. These coins are said to be, with a very few exceptions, in good preservation, and it is a reasonable supposition, that they were buried during the troubles in the reign of the unfortunate Charles the First. On Friday morning the following dreadful accident Orcurred iu the saltpetre refining- house, I belonging to the powdermills of Mr. Harvey, of Battle:— As S. Middlemas, one of the workmen, was employed in extracting the saltpetre from about three barrels of gun- powder, it by some! means ignited, and caused a terrible explosion. The poor man was killed instantaneously, and his body found shockingly mangled. As no stores were destroyed, Mr. Harvey's loss will not exceed 1501. the damage being principally confined to the building wherein the accident happened. An alurming riot took place last week, at Hull. A press gang having taken a seaman, he was rescued by the mob, and the gang with difficulty escaped with their lives; the mob then proceeded to the rendezvous, which they nearly destroyed, with the furniture, & c. A ludicrous circumstance some little time since occurred at the Chapel Royal At Brighton. The clerk, whose principal employment during the other days in the week is in attending auctions, in annouueinga charity sermon which was to be preached there on the following Sunday, concluded his notification by obse rving, that " the sale would begin at eleven o'clock !" The surprise which his words occasioned to the congregation may be well imagined, and which restoring him to his proper recollection, he corrected his error with becoming deference and gravity. The following is copied from an Evening Paper: " A private account from Ostend states the following horrible circumstance as a fact:— A Frenchman, who kept a hotel at that place had been recently observed to make a more considerable purchase of salt than he could be supposed to require. It was observed, also, that seteral of his guests, Hanoverians, had been missed in succession, and were suspected of desertion. Some strange circumstances, however, exciting surmises and rumours, it was thought necessary to explore the whole of his premises, when, dreadful to say, a great number of portious of human bodies were fouud to be salted down. The story spread immediately, and a number of Hanoverians, breathing vengeance for this horrid sacrifice of their countrymeu and comrades, rushed into the house, aud literally cut the landlord into pieces.— We, of course, doubt the truth of this shocking narrative, though the confidence with which it is given will justify our presenting it to our readers." Friday, about noon, Mrs. Cottereil, an elderly lady, iu apparent good health, while attending in the four per cent, office at the Bank, waiting for her dividend warrant, was taken suddenly " ill; she gave a shriek, fell down, aud expired immediately. SINGULAR WEDDING.— A few days ago was married, at Doynton, in Gloucestershire, Mr. Wilson, residing near Stroud, to Sarah Lock, a young gipsey girl, belonging to a gang hutted on the common in the vicinity of that town. This happy event was celebrated by the ringing of bells and other demonstrations of joy. A handsome dinner was provided on the occasion at the Bull Inn, iu Hinton. A ball followed, at which the whole of the gipsey corps, and the inhabitants for miles round, were present. At eleven o'clock the dingy tribe retired, but not before the father of the bride called for a pint pot, which he filled with guineas, and presented to the bridegroom ! • » Two mineral springs were lately discovered in the neighbourhood of the village of Ormiston.— • The waters ere believed to be highly medicinal. The faithless rib of a celebrated needle- maker and citizen of London, was missing on the first day of Epsom races, but was afterwards discovered, in an awkward situation with a Noble Lord in disguise, iu due pf the upper apartments of the house— a se^ paration took place, aud the lady, nothing k> th nur ashamed, appeared on the course the next day iu company with her paramour. An elopement, ( if it will bear thut term,) of a very singular nature, has recently taken plact^ which is likely to undergo a severe legal investigation. It is that of a female child, of only thir teen years of age, being induced by some means; yet unaccounted for, to be carried away by a Captain of Dragoons, ( a widoWer) from a barrack neas1 town, where this child was left a visitant to the Officer's mother. The child is the daughter of a Governor, and heiress to u large fortune. This extraordinary event Is related with circumstances of great aggravation, Which, it may be hoped, will prove unfounded. A Suffolk cow, eight years old, belonging to Mr. Keeley, of Reading, produced in oue week, lately, 17lbs. of butter. During the last six weeks she has given from 22 to 24 quarts of milk daily. On Saturday a young woman of the name of Ann Power, living in Berkeley- street, Clerkenwell, put an end to her life by poison. Love lor a man, whom she afterwards discovered to be married, u supposed to have been the cause. CORONER'S INQUEST.— Monday an Inquest was held at the sign of the Ship, in Berkeley- street, St. John's, Clerkenwell, on the body of Ann Power, of the above street, who died on Friday evening last, in consequence of having taken a larg> e quantity of laudanum.— A. Power stated that he was husband to the deceased; that about a month since, he being in trouble for debt, his wife came to visit him, and tendering two phials with liquid iu them, requested witness to drink the same, which would release him at once from all his cares. He answered he was not yet tired of life, but should write to his friends in the country to assist him, which he did, aud he received immediate relief.— On Friday last, the deceased went to a closet in the room where they were sitting, and poured something from a bottle, which he thought was gin, into a ctijJ, which she mixed with water, and drank the same, then leaving tile room. Soon alter she returned, threw her arms about his neck, begged he would forgive her, that the deed was done, and desired that he would send for a surgeon; witness immediately sent for Mr. Chamberlain, surgeon, in Aylesbury- street.— Mr. . Shipley, assistant to Mr. Chamberlain, who attended on the deceased, said that he administered medicines for her relief, and a quantity of laudanum caine off her stomach, but he could not extract the whole. After languishing some hours she expired.— The Jury returned a verdict of Lunacy. FLAGRANT CASE OF POLYGAMY.— At W o r s h i p - street Office, on Saturday, a woman of genteel deportment, about the middle age, who said her mniden name was Abby, was brought before Mr. Gifford, by the parish officers of Bethnal- grecn, who said she applied to them a few days back, detailing a long tals of woe and misery, statingthat she was reduced to her present state of indigence, from her former affluence, bv the neglect of her husband, Mr. Stone, au inhabitant of there parish, who has a family, aud is in very respectable circumstances. On their application to him in her behalf, he admitted being married to her formerly, hut denied being her lawful husband, as she had I then living several husbands, or persons to whom she had been married previously. In consequence of this statement, they were induced to take the present step, iu order to relieve themselves from her incumbrance. Mr. Stone, who attended through the medium of his Counsel, proceeded to statb from various documents, taken from different parish registers, that the lady had been ft ret married in 1801, in Lancaster, to a man named Jackson, who, on findiug out her infidelity, entered on board a King's ship, from which he was discharged in 1809, and admitted into Greenwich Hospital, where he died in 1811. In the m^ aii time she was married to one Murphy; from him she ran away with another man, aud w as married again in 1806, at Glasgow. Afterwards she had two more husbands, before she met Mr. Stone, in 1808, to whom she was married iu St. Margaret's Church, Westminster ; but having learned her former pruceeding, he ( as a respectable man should feel under such circumstances) was sensible of the disgrace she might bring upon him, and thought the most prudent line to act upon was to remove himself from such disgrace. Now , having no more charms for attraction, and finding him respectably situated, she has been ill the practice of constantly annoying him for the purpose of extorting money.— The Magistrate said her conduct was most abominable, and recommended the case to stand over, in order to make proper inquiries into those statements, and if found to be true, she certainly ought to be proceeded against in the regular way, at the Old Bailey.
