The . present question 0 , of infinite importance. When their petitions were presented to the Sovereign on the Throne, an in t was obtained, and they had the satisfaction .ii bowing that their complaints had reached the i te m ear. In the ordinary mode of transmitting ,them, they in all probability proceeded no further ;ti t an the`bureau •of the Secretary of State. What 'could be more absurd than to place an accusation in the bands of the thief against Whom it was directed • and was it not the same thing to complain of a ba d isfinister to his master, through the medium of the d e l i nquent himsAt ?—..(4iridaere.) Even if their right . Mile more questionable than he conceived it to be, it .. w as natural to suppose thit•the Father of his people would be disposed to relax the strictness of a positive r o e , is order to listen to the representation of their t wets—these complaints never before had such ...curae et foundation, and 'those who dotibteel of this j a d only to turn to the suppressed work of the Board • a Agticulture. After some further remarks, he con .tiedeePby moving several resolutions, which were* eltimately*dered to be published in the London Mor* essfEvening Papers; the purport of which was, that to abandon the right of presenting the peti.' ;ions of the Common Hall to the Sovereign, seated es the Throne, would be a dereliction of their most 'valuable rights, and a gross violation of their duty to • the country. The final resolution purported, that a c opy of these resolutions should be transcribed, and resented to the Prince Regent at the next Levee. Mr. aostrza seconded the amended motion, and remonstrated vehemently against the uncourteous -conduct of M. Hunt. He insisted also, that the amended resolutions went quite as far, and had much more spirit than those of Mr. Hunt. The right which they had now met to assert had' never before been questioned, not even under the reign of the ac cursed Marts, who had been justly cashiered, and expelled from the country, for their misconduct.e— (The conclusion of this address was entirely lost in . the general uproar and confusion that prevailed.) , Mr. HUNT appealed to the Livery, whether Mr. Thompson or Mr. Flower had dune airy thing more than repeat do explanation as to what had pasced which he himself bad previously given ? He could not remain silent under so weak and pitiful an attack. lie admitted that he had been told that Mr. Flower was to move some resolutions, and could not, at the • time, abstain horn observing that lie certainly was not s lit person to be appointed for this task, who could neither be, heard himself, nor , hear the hooting; and =rations ef his auditors —(Lamer wed anuretere of kapprebatiem). W.-STEVE%S professed his anxiety that the Livery • thould let disgrace their proceedings by any irregu hrilyur ladecco um. They had sufficiently Inutile ted , their dispssition no longer to suffer tamely whatever indignities might be heaped upon them. Tai the • resent reign the right which they now claimed had i never been disputed. Unfortunately the whole system ;. of the G isteritnient bad arrived at that point, that . tastead of the representatives checking the Govern ion, the Government checked and controlled the seementziees, corrupting them to the base purpose -. 1 Mapeertilig the enemies of the people. He lamented the tnistatulerAAnding that had taken place in sub alining two deferent series of Resolutions to their confide' ation. it was certain that the Members of the Committee we're most respectable persons, who • had come forward entirely on public grounds, and from a conviction Cut the country stood in need of their assistance. Mr. Hunt, from his situation, did sot maintain. that intercourse which was essential to onion of effort, without which no public ohjtct could' possibly he effected. i Mr. W AITHNIAN said he knew nothing of the per 'tonal differences to which allusion had been made, but be was anxious for the consistency and dignity of their proceedings. It was but an ordinary point of civility to allow the persons appointed by those who signed the requisition for the Meeting, to take the priority in commencing the business of the day. Why this coursehad been departed from on the present 1 ioccasion, he could not determine ; but he guessed, as the phrase was in H a mlet, that it was " Miehia: Ina4c 4 o,' or that it meant mischief. It certainly ap peared to him to be strong evidence of a disingenuous motive, to take a sly peep into the intentions of others, for the purpose of unexpectedly frustrating them. • ' The question was then put, and the LORD MAYOR declared the shew of hands to be in favour of the amended Resolutions, and those of Mr. Hunt were tonsequendy rejected by the majority of the Hall. 'flanks were unanimously voted to the late Sheriffs. Po r ft. I hii tiler , ' g 41 Whilst so many of the foreign Papers circulate such Itossiid erroneous notions with respect to the com .74llllef des country,. it giyes us pleasure to find in "e Ahem, the ifiernanaia, the following just and lit kW remarks against the prohibition' of English mer chandise: Of what advantage is It to force the esta blishment of manufactories in a country in which the arms devoted to agriculture, to the mines, and fisheries, ate not over abundant ? Why provoke an employment of our capital w l,i c h i s not i n di cate d by t he natural state of our degree of civilization ? Should we even place all our funds in manufactures of silk and cotton, we e old be still unable to support a free competition. wr most *have .prohibitory laws—that is, force the onsume r to buy at a dearer prict merchandise less M'd or lets c( mmodious. What do we gain by fa.. vi.uringlhe class of speculators, small in number, at I ke expense of the great mass of the public ? It is laid that our money goes to England ; but is not our !rioney the produce of our mines or the price of out grain! Thui, by paying for foreign stuffs, we do but exchange the produce of our simple industry for that of an industry more complicated, and which it ti impossible fer ns to imitate with advantage. The .

There is now lying in our port, to take in a cargo, the remarkable vessel which was destined to convey Bonaparte to North America, in his flight from France. Every thing was arranged according to his own plan, and quite concealed. The Ex•Emperer would have happily escaped that time also in a very large cask, expressly ordered for the purpose; but the English surrounded him too closely. If he had escaped discovery on one examination of the vessel, twenty or thirty others wsre to be expected, so that at the end he thought it best to surrender voluntarily. The view of tl. I 'essel may perhaps excite interest : it is commanded by Captain Glay, and belongs to shipowners of Lubeck FROM THE MAINE, SEPTEMBER O. What is most clearly proved by the rapid victory of the English over 'the Algerines, is, that it entirely depends upon them to put an end to the piracies of the Barbary States. The question therefore recurs, why do they suffer it to continue ? CONSTAMINOPLE, AUGUST 24. General Laßemand • has- gone from Smyrna to Egypt, and will probably be followed by Savary, who has hitherto been his travelling companion. This province seems indeed to become the rendez vous of many expatriated French. The Staff Offi:ers of Bonaparte's army have been taken by the l'acha of that country into , his service as Minister'. This city has been again visited by a dreadful cou &grating': it broke out in the night of the 15:14 ita the finest quarter of the city, and laid l'2oo houses and 3(101) shops and magazines in ashes. The Sultan was present and active the whole night and till nine in the morning, but did nut find in the Jmnissaries the requisite alacrity in extinguishing the flames. The Palace of their former favourite Jussuf Aga has remained alone undamaged in the quarter which is destroyed. The Paris Papers which we received yesterday in form us, that the Electoral Colleges assembled on Friday, to proceed to the election et Deputies to the new Chamber. The Departmetit of Seine has re turned M. M Bxm.aliT and PADQUIEB, but them were six more Deputies for thit Dopartment still to elect. Amongst those who were next on the list, with regard to number of votes, were M. M. LAY/ TTE, Tax, and 01.1vtatt. The following is an extract of a private letter from Paris, dated October 5 : 6 ' A rupture is said to lave taken place between the French Government and the Pdpe. It appears that an arrangement had been made by the Count de BLeas with the Court of It•dme, by which Papal dominion in France became greater that even before the Revolution. It was lately sent to Paris, for the purpose of being ratified by the King; but he directly refused to confirm I it, adding, it is said, that he should never deviate from the old maxim of the Crown of Fronce- 4 Qu'll (the Pope) est une per sonae is erre mats entreprenante dont it taut toujours baser acs pleas, mats quelque fols her les mains.'--Btacas is censured, but t perhaps without reason; he, in all probability, acted In the spirit of his instructions. l'he policy of the French Government is I materially changed since lie went upon his embassy. The work Is tor which the Abbe Vinson has been recently condemned was eulogised In the Journals of last year, as breathing the purest spirit of loyalty and piety. It was even pu: foto the hands of the Members of bath Chambers, with the recommendation, either real or assumed, of she Count d'Artols. " The Ministers tremble at the result of the eleetioni. It is reported, that the Baron Pimple,. who has just been elected foe Paris, comes immediately him vies, and that nothing but the liveliest remonstrances from the Duchess of Angouktne has kept out Talleyrand. He was willing, it ii said, to come in as Miriis ter of the Interior, the Du'ke'of Richelieu still bearing the title of Prime Minister. The women of rank elk the French Court are dliided intatwn classes—kr esOriguastir and la irtwin—the litter have not of law paid their usual court to the King, but crowd the saloon of Madame d'Angodleme. '1 he Royalists openly declare that they expect a majority in the next Chamber, or, at least, such a mlnerityos the Ministers cannot resist. " A Royalist Opposition can be mush more daring and effec dve than a Revolutionary var. The Alit question to crime before the Deputies will be the propel of an order for egulathig the n publicatioof the d• bates. fita purport of It is said to be, that no speech shall be published bet by order of the Chamber, and upon the success of this proposition will depend, in a great mea sure, the mask of the conflict between the two parties.

Every Meinbe.r Is supposed to deliver Ids speech from a written paper, and this is me general practice, se that even if the prinung should be prohibited they au be circulated in menuacript.

Among the many anecdotes which we have heard related of the cool undaunted courage of the British, it is w9rthy of record that previous to the late attack of our girt upon Algiers, an old and gallant Officer (Major G ) of the Royal Marines. who being con fined to his cabin from a violent fit of the gout, in sisted upon being taken to the upper deck, where he was placed to a chair, and remained directing and cheering his men dut iag the whole of the engagement. The fallowing narrative of the recent sufferings of our countrymen at Algiers is stated to be derived Ivan a source which entitles it to implicit Credit " Captain Das.iwood. and Mr. M'Manut, the Surgeon of the Pr's:tie:bens, and some :tore I'4ll6ll:nen sibs assisted in effecting the Escape of the Lnglish Consul's family at Algiers, and who were unfortunately detected in constquence of the child's crying, were in great danger of losing their beads, and would certainly have suffered it it had tint been tor the interposition of the American Consul. They were put (mu a large vault filled-with vermin and filth, where they remained all night. They had mats to rest on upon a ramp fluor, and had nothing to refresh themselves but bad bread and water. They were tantalized with a p omise that they. should be p.rmitted to go on board ship, but were marched iron one prison to ..nuther. , They were well treated by some Sicilian slaves. The Minister refused them when they appled Ihr more bread ; but the Captain of the part sheared some coin !passion, and ordered refreshments for theM, directing the guards 'to treat them well. The shires then gum them milt, dcc. They wereffterwarck moved to what is catled the King's Prison, Un der an escort of soldiers, and marched through the town, insulted on the way by Moors, Jews, and Turks, who even spate in their faces. • The Dey thought proper to send the Consul's child on board. Ihe American Consul condoned bis kinduets, and the Swedish Consul also ties very attentive, anti supfited theft with books, pent, and paper. The Engli.h were anon afar put into irons, and in that state were manned about twelve Mites across the country ; and baiting a -short time in a place where cattle were confine, were obliged to re time their journey. Their res freshment was boiled corn and water. "I bey were then placed in'another prison, but soon heard thik they were to be marched back to Algiers, to which place, after having encamped on the bank of a river which had recently Wert over/lawn, they were afterwards brought. Then they were confined in'k large build ing pa the south side of the town, where they remained in doubt, anxiety, and apprehension as to what would be their future fate._ At length the English were relieved from their irons and marched' down to the Marina, and put into possession of triiir own boats.
