BANKES felt no difficulty in vindicatinl . n ment against the unprovoked aspersions of the ;nourable Member. Government had a right' to e nv a preference to particular Newspapers. 3lr. HUME rose up in warmth to maintain his sen ,nents. He insisted that Government ought to have no ....ncion with any Newspaper bitt the London Ga le, which was their own official and authoritative „ oz . ! . and in which they might publish as mu c h as ,ev P leased. • Mr. HUTCHINSON objected to the vote of nine ou cand pounds for the purpose mentioned, and lie Teti that the Hon. Secretary for Ireland (Mr. Great) ould not let them have the repetition of it next year. Mr. F. PALMER defended both .the Irish and ,nglish Press from all unwarrantable aspersions'. , h.ttever some Gentlemen might insinuate, he was ,evinced that the Public Press of both countries', ttad of being hostile to the Government as consti ,tionally formed, .were friendly and zealously alive the true interests of the State. In political opinions ' , ere might be considerable differences, but all those ifferences ceased when the Government or Consti , don was endangered.--The Vote was then passed. On the Vote for a Grant of £22,000 for the Ser ices of the Barrack Department, Mr. NEWMAN thought it unfair that such error . ors sums should be voted at so late an hour, and so unexpected a manner. Mr. BANK ES agreed with the last Honourable !ember. The Resolutions ought to have been known ‘store they were presented to the House. Mr. W. SMITH could not conceive what possible .!)jections there could be for printing the Resolutions. Vhy not print them before they Made their Report? There was no reason for making the Report that night, and(ldeking at the clock) unless they made it in one minute, they could not make it that night. lle believed that he would not perform his duty if he did not move for the printing of it., At all events, ought to be printed before Monday. It would he .1go;a1 precedent for Ministers. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that the printing would occasion a delay. It must, however, be previously reported; and as the Esti mates formed from these Resolutions were merely different in construction or some words, they might order the Estimates to be printed, instead of the Re solutions. The Resolutions were all agreed to, the House re iumed, and the Report was ordered to be received on Monday. The Estimates were ordered to be printed, iri or der that the Members might be furnished with copies previously to the further consideration onNonday. The Tax Bills, in consequence of the 4 arious Resolutions of the Committee s vete separately brought in and read a fast time, and ordered for , second reading on Monday. The Churches' Building Amendment Bill went thrOugh a Committee. The Report was received and ordered to be taken taro further consideration on Tuesday next. The Common Recovery Dill was committed, third iealling on Monday. Mr. HOLFORD brought in a Bill for the better reenlation of the General Penitentiary at Milbank.—Read a first time, and UI tiered for a second reading on Mondry. Mr. ARBUTHNOT brought in a Bill for the better Reitn iltion of the African Company.—Read a first time, and Ordered for a second reading on Tuesday next. • Mr. HUME moved for a Return of the Application of the Grant of Public Money to the Poor Clergy in Scotland, for the last three.years.—Ordered. Mr. BAN KES enquired what ceps were taken for eatl-ying into execution the erection of the New Post wee in the CRY of London? Mr. LUSH IN GTON replied, that the kostmaster-General i ltpd, in a public advertisement, offered three prizes for the best plans for a ost-office; one of £3OO for the best plan, one of 1...00 for the second best, and one of £lOO for the third best.

Sra—lnasmuch as public faith is interested in the subject of %it letter, I hope you will have the goodness to insert it in your JournaL I have observed in the Maryland Cosar of the 23d of September, 1818, a Proclamation, by Luis Ausy, which entitles him " Commander-in-Chief of the forces destined to act against New Granada, in the name of the Confederated Republics of Buenos Ayres and Chili." In the first place, it ought to be knewn that Chili and Buenos Ayres are not Republics so con federated, UM two 'States, absolutely independent, and with obe anj other bond than that which they imposed on them whet by the Treaty of the sth of February, in order to aid tfic Inhabititats of Peru against the Government of Spain.— In the second place, Chili has not intrusted forcei of any de scription to Luis Aury, nor to any other man for the Ruipose of acting agidnii I le* Granada ; neither is Luis Aury at present, nor has he ever bees, an Officer of the State of Chili. Iqthe third place, Chill hes not hitherto authorized any person to ai rline the denomination Wbiols sppears in that Proclamation.—? lastly; the policy of the Government of Chili is Utterly opposed to the estahlistutent of those corsairs, 'who, under the pretext of molesting the Spaniards, may commit outrages against other .gs. Chili has only a well-regulated national marine ; and Luis Amy is not among the number of the mariners of Chili. The author of that Proclamation has,inferedly, been guilty of an unwarranted assumption of authoent from the Government of Chili to act against New Granada ; that Government will, in a short time. publicly falsify the supposed commission of Aury. . in the meanwhile, I who, until the 50th of October last, held the )linistry of Grace and Justice, and of Foreign Affairs, in that S:ate, can and ought to give my assurance, that whatever is tt. , :ed in that Proclamation with regard to the Government of Chili is false ; and I make this declaration, both to vindicate that Cuvernment in public opinitin, and to prevent the evils which accrue to some individuals of other nations from so false a tteement—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, laartnno Jost DC Tinsmith 66, Baker-street, Partmen-square, June 24.

We find in a Leeds Paper, received this morning, a full Report of the proceedings at the second Meet ing at Hunslet Moor, on Monday last, of which our private advises enabled us' two dayi ago to lay a pretty ample account before our Readers. It con; curs in every material respect with the view taken by our Private Correspondent. Among the Resolve' tions adopted, and which are now published at length; the following may be safely quoted, and as safely, recommended for the truths it contains : " We believe the real cause of the distress which we now fer, has originated in a base and profligate expenditure neibie public money, which has involved the nation in WOO minima et debt ; and which has increased taxation to such an extent as hal nearly totally destroyed our manufactures and comtheree ; and we are perfectly satisfied that nothing but a recurrence to prld ciples of rigid,economy, can either put In end to our own suf ferings, or save our country from ruin." The speech of the emissary, Pima, of which a teral report is given, contains abundant matter to jets. tify the disgust which our private letter informed es it had excited among the better disposed part of ' . hearers.—" Our progeny," exclaimed he, " shall in after ages proclaim to the world, that we have con quered our meet powerful foes—that we have brought ' theni low in the dust before us—that we have gained a completeeadical Reform, and thoroughly purged, one of the most corrupt and loathsome Constitutions in the *orld,. without blood, and without the sword." Now is your time. Say not, ye are Reformers, bi put prove yourselves to be such by joining the Union. Why stand you still between two opinions? Have you not waited long enough ? Remember, he who is not for Us Is against us."--" Remember the brave but ill-fated Wat Tyler. lie was no politkian; yet had it not been for treachery, he would have made Eng land's proud King grant his request;" &c. Sce. - Our Readers will be happy to observb from the letter of our Private Correspondent which we subjoin, that the business of obtaining redress for the suer ings of the working classes (to which every humane mind must 'feel sensibly alive) is in Leeds at least likely to be taken out of the hands of such incendiaries a: this Mr. PETRI. From the liberal character of the present Chief Magistrate of Leeds, no doubt is enter tained of his giving his sanction to any Meeting which has a view to real practital good : •• LEEDS, JUNE 24. ei The Resolution passed at the late Meeting on Henslet Moor, for calling a Public Meeting of the most respectable Inhabitants of the District, to take into consideration the deplorable situation of the un employed workmen, was brought forward with the laudable view of taking the business out of the im proper hands into which it had got. 'As the Requi sition Will be both numerously and respectably signed, 'there is no doubt but the worthy Magistrate will Comply with the prayer of it; and that every possible means *ill be suggested and tried to alleviate the present state of distress. It is quite certain that re lief of some kind or other must be afforded for should the presedt state of things exist only twelve months more, the major part of our small Manufac turers and Dealers must become paupers. This town; the HEART of the most populous and wealthy mann.; facturing and mercantile district in the kingdom, ex hibits at present a melancholy reverse of what it once, was i instead of the bustling activity and smilingsoun tenances of workmen, well paid, clothed and fed, the eye is constantly pained at beholding in every corner pf:jhe towit and suburbs, groupes of wretched, half famished objects, sighing over their lost situation, and comparing it with days gone by. The yard and avenues of the Workhouse likewise (twice a week) present an overcharged picture of human misery, being crowded with out-door Poor, who• attend at these stated times, to receive the miserable pittances doled out to them by the cold hand of parochial charity ! " The tide of einlgration from this district has suddenly veered from North to South America and many individuals and families (some of them pos 'sessed of considerable priiperty) are making prepara tions to take their departure to that New Land qf Promise. Several ships have, arrived at Liverpool, during the present week, freighted with Soldiers and Emigrants from Ireland add other parts ache United Yingdom,.for South America. Three vessels are also fitting out at Liverpool, for the express purpose of, conveying Emigrants, &c. from this part of the .It,lngdo ' A Set of :Articles has beed put into our hands purPOrting to be those of a Society established in Stocktidrt; for the purpose of obtaining Annual Par tiameuti and Universal Suffrage.

Part of the tithe to be appropriated to the moral and political instruction of youth is to in clude the period usually allotted to Divine Service on Sunday, both in the morning lind in the arternooli. • The following is given, under the head ofil Iris portant Information," in two contemporary Papal of this morning. We do not place any reliance on id accuracy. The Liverpool Papers, which we haul received this morning, are of as recent a date as any letter which could have been received yesterday from a resident at Liverpool; and we do not meet, in them, with the slightest 'allusion to any assemblage of the kind described—a thing scarcely possible, had there been any reality in it : d Yesterday a Mr. Eassatunis waited on Mr. &awn, the Sit ting Magistrate at B6w-street Office, and informed him that he bad just received a letter from Colonel Fun, kt Liverpool, seating that the country in that vicinity was in a very alarming state. Upwards of 800 men had assembled, several of them armed, and apparently with every disposition to commit violence. The whole neighbourhood, in fact, seemed to be in a state bor. dering on insurrection. Mr. Btinas thanked Mt. iMmoins tot the information, and Immediately ecoliVeyell the intelligence to tie Under Secretary et State for the Home Depanthent." The Paris Pipers of Wednesday arrived 41is forenoon. The Chaniber of Peers had a public sitting on Ttiesday, to disCusi the prdjett of law on the defini tive regalati..ms of t he Budgets of 1815, 1816, and 1817, and the provisionary ratification of that of 1818. No Member had inscribed his name to speak against the project; but several speeches were heard for and upon it, when these speeches were ordered to be printed ; after which the discussion was ad• ' journed till another_day. The Chamber of Deputies have at last come to a final conclusion on the Budget which has so long occupied their attention. The votes having been taken by scrutiny for the passing of the whole of the Law, there appeared in the affirmative 190, negative 14—Majority 176. Seven transports, destined for Cadiz, are stated to have set sail from Bourdeanz on the 18th inst: Five per Cents: Tuesday, 68fr. 60c. Mails have arrived this morning from Holland, and ilamburgh with Papers to the 28d instant. The Northern Courts exhibit nothing but military demonstrations.' On the 28th of May the Emperor ALEXANDER had a grand review of troops at Peters burgh ; on the 15th of June, the KING of DENMARK had a like grand review at Copenhagen ; and on the 11th of June, CHARLES JOHN, the secret cause we suspect of all this Royal bustle, had a still grander parade of his military strength at the Camp of Sca nia. Of the last we have the following account : , 4 The Prince Royal gave, on the 11th, a grand dinner, it which he presented to the King all the Officers, to the number of 700. After dinner there was a grand parade of all the troops tinder the com mand of his Royal Highness. When his Majeity passed along the line, the troops received him with the most lively acclamations.. His Majesty expressed his perfect satisfaction at the fine appearance of the troops. It is generally agreed that so fine and nu merous a body of troops as those now in the Camp of Bomarp, has not been seen in Sweden for this century. The King and the Prince Royal are in per fect health." Several Danish Officers, says a Copenhagen al- tick of a previous date—" Are gone with Swedish passports to be present at the Review of the Swedish Army is Scania."—Now that they have teen it, we hope that the Councils of their Sovereign still profit by the report which they make. The inn which Denmark may take in any rupture between Russia and Sweden, cannot fail w have a very deciding influence. The payment of the Norwegian Debt tb Denmark is to be made it appears, in ten years, Sweden paying every year the sum of 300,000 rix-dollars banco.
