FROM SATURDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE. CROWN-OFFICE, JULY 20. MEMBERS RETURNED TO SERVE IN THIS PRESENT PARLIAMENT. QuziN's COUNTT—The Right Hon. Wm. Wellesley Pole. DOWNING-STREET, JULY 16. A Dispatch, of which the following is an Extract, has been re ceived from Lord 'Viscount Wellington, addressed by his Lord ship to the Earl of Liverpool, dated Quints de St. Joao, June a 7, 1211. The enemy made a great reconnoissance with a very large body of cavalry upon Elvas and Campo Mayor on the 22d instant. The cavalry of the Army of the South went upon Elvas from the neighbour hood of Olivensa, and the woods between that town and Badajoz ; and the Cavalry of the Army of Por tugil upon Campo Mayor, from the Neighbourhood of Badajoz. The former succeeded in cutting off a picquet of the 11 th Light Dragoons which had been posted on the Caya in front of Elvas, under the command of Captain Lutyens. It is understood that the cause of this was that Captain Lutyens mistook a regi ment of the enemy's Hussars for a body of ours sent to his support. The 2d Hussars also, which were on the Guadiana, on the right of Elvas, suffered in their retreat towards Elvas. The enemy were kept i* check in the neighbour hood of Campo Mayor by the Hon. Major-General De Gray's brigade of British and Brigadier-Getieral Madden's brigade of Portuguese cavalry, and they retired without seeing the position of our troops.-- Since that day they have made no movement of Im portance. Their army is along the Guadiana be tween Badajoz and Merida, and their principal occu pation appears to be to procure subsistence. They are already beginning to experience, in some degree, the effects of drawing together, in Estrema (tura, their whole force. Genes al Bonnet has evacuated the Asturias. Don Julian Sanchez has possession of the open country in Old Castile, and has recently intercepted a valuable convoy of money and provisions on the toad from Salamanca to Ciudad Rodrigo ; and I learn from Valladolid, that a very valuable convoy, consisting of Joseph Bonaparte's baggage and proper ty, has %wen intercepted by Mina, near Victoria. General Blake crossed the Guadiana (as had been arranged) on the 22d inst. and I understand was at Castillegos on the 24th. oftDNANCE OFFICE, JULY 17. Corps of Royal Engineers.

Adjourned till Monday. ruaLlC DEBT. " The Gth title of the law imports, that the maxi mum of the perpetual debt shall be fixed at 80 mil. , lions ; that this sum shall never be exceeded, with out at the same time establishing a sinking fund, suf ficient to bring the whole of the debt within the amount above specified in the course cf 20 years. " In matters of finance, the question has been sometimes agitated, whether the expences of a state should be regulated en the produce of its ordinary resources ? or whether these ordinary resources may be augmented by extraordinary measures and taxes. in proportion to the wants and circumstances of the moment ? " An individual deranges his fortune, if he does not regulate his expences and his mode of living by his income. The same principle is applicable to small states, whose means are circumscribed within narrow limits ; it is dangerous for such states to over-step them. even though they should derive a momentary advantage from it. The case is not the same with states ot the first rank ; circumstances and events which might dry up the sources of their prosperity, or affect their existence, may force them to efforts which exceed their ordinary means, and aggravate. the bur den of taxation. This is particularly applicable to those whose internal sterngth and fertility of territory present certain resources to enable them at a future period to relieve themselves from the embarrassment produced by an over-load of debt or of taxes. Suck nations cannot, without endangering their existence, sacrifice to mere considerations of finance the powerful interest of a high policy. We may even go farther: the Government of a country, such as we have d,:scribed, would not perform its duty, if, from motives of mco. nomy alone, it should neglect the dictates of prudence and foresight. It must' look to the present, think of the futuie, but must not faar it. Nevertheless, it will( be always dangerous, even for the greatest state. never to think of the extinction of debts, which, from urgent circumstances, it has been obliged, to.contract beyond its ordinary means and resources. The decline or the rain of many states who have nc,slected this principle evince its truth. " A wise Government will always labour to dimi. nish its debts;' and it it is good policy that capitalists who wish to place a part of their fortune in the pub. lic funds should have an opportunity of placing them' in those of their country, instead of being obliged to seek for it abroad, it' is not less important to bring back the public debt to a rate and proportion which' shall Appear suitable and sufficient for attaching the fortunes at individuals to that of the public. 0 These are the principles which characterise the arrangements laid down in the 10th and 11th articles of the law. The perpetual debt is there fixed at &) =limns ; and this maximum is n.)t to be exceeded without a sinkii:g mad being appropriated for it li. guidation, and the perpetual debt being brought back in about 2J years to the rate of 80 millions. " How happy is the nation governed by a Sovereign who has caused an arrangement so salutary to be con verted into a law, and the internal strength and're sourcei of which, independent of all extei nal causes. and resulting from we advantages ot its geographical -tile of . - soil, and the immensity of HOUSE OF COMMONS.

A proposition was made by the Senior Riesca, and referred to The Committee of Rewards and Remune rations ;---first, that there be erected in the plains of Albuera, a Grand Column, which should record to late posterity, the glorious victory of the 16th of May. And secondly, as scarcely a house in the-town of Al buera has been left habitable by the enemy, that a new town of equal she should be built on or near the spot, which should be exempt from all rates and taxes for the term of ten years. N. B. There is a Column still existing in the plains of Almanza, erected in commemoration of the famous battle which placed the Crown of Spain on the heads of the Bourbon family. At the elegant fete given on the 90th of May, by the British Minister, his Excellency D. H. Wellesley, in celebration of the Natal Day of our beloved Sove reign,. Ferdinand VII. the most cordial conviviality reigned. After the healths of the respective Sove reigns were toasted, Don H. Wellesley gave, 44 The August National Congress." . The Presislent of the Cortes proposed the healthof 44 The illustrious Lord Wellington." The Vice-President gave, 44 The eter nal friendship and union of the two free Powers, England and Spain." The Minister of State drank, 44 A speedy general insurrection of all the nations of Europe against Bonaparte." CEUTA, MAY 29. -- . For some days a strong rumour prevailed of the existence of a conspiracy of a dangerous n a t ure in this ' city. The Governor, Sencr Alos, who is always on the alert, soon ascertained the fact. His zeal and patriotism animated him to extraordinary exertions ; he discovered the plot, the chi.f instigator of which WAS one Antonio Esquivel, a well-known character in Seville. This person and his fellow conspirators were arrested ; they were tried, and the charge prov ed against them. Esquivel was hanged ; his head was cut off, and placed over the tavern where they plotted together. The city has since remained per -1 fectly tranquil. The Governor is satisfied as to the patriotism of the inhabitants, whose love of justice and of order will not adow them to give ear to a per fidious enemy, or to compassionate those malefactors who sought to aggravate the evils of an offended country.
