recollected, no notice was talcen lathe official bul __' that Sitting. The details are however so obscure, that all we can gather from them, as to the of the proposition is, that it produced a great confusion, and was ultimately got rid of by dispensing power of the Chair. " A Noble Peer ified a desire to make a proposition to the Chain-, His proposition was received with violent re' lotions. Interrupted at every instant, he prayed Chamber to consent to hear him. The Pant ' told hm, that it belonged to him (the Pans'- , to decide whether or not the oriitor Ought to' heard. This principle was contested by some Some maintained that the orator did not de his proposition so much as he ought ; others ke went too far ; some that he was too prolix ; that he was too laconic. Some interrupted, move that he ought not to he interrupted ; and to pro'e that he ought not to be heard. The was at last called upon to state the object of proposition, when, having with difficulty obtained inicntary silence, he tried in vain to explain Al to the Chamber. New reclamations rose on inutility and danger of the motion, which, in opinions of some Members, amounted to a kind insure of acts belonging essentially to the Royal prerogative. The PRESIDENT concurred in this opi and said he could not put. the question. The 'her accordingly adjourned." , Mkt:AULT DE ST. JEAN D'ANGELY arrived at s, with his family, on Wednesday evening. He immediately after his arrival, attacked with a vis it of the gout, and 'expired on Thursday Morning. wench five per Cents.—Shut price, GS f. 20 c.— xsilay, cx. div. 66 f. 40 c. The Paris Papers of Saturday also arrived at a late . this forenoon. On Friday the IC txc received at his apartments a Deputation from Bourdeaux, of which Count Lxt►rtl, LAINE, and M. RayEz, made part, which was rirged with presenting the homage of that city to MI tesrir on the occasion of the Anniversary of Entry into it of the Duke of ANGOULEME, op the March, Mt. His MAJESTY afterwards transacted business with , Marquis Dr.ssonnts: The Resolution of the Chamber of Peers on the Election Law was to be officially communicated to President of the Chamber of Deputies on Satur ; but there was to be no public meeting of the >uties sooner than Monday or Tuesday, when the tesident would lay before the Chamber the cona taication which had been made to him. General Gaouctly is said to have obtained leave return to France. The QUEEN Of SWEDEN, who has been for some ime rciiding in Paris, is now about to proceed to tockholm. The Persian Ambassador, who is at present at 'aris, on his way to London, had or. Friday morning audience of the Minis ter of Foreign Affairs. The tenna Journals complain, that his Excellency has left the most brilliant , marks of his liberality in that capital—he ordered to be distributed Along domestics of the Court, and tlice.e of Prince MET.. 'LIMIER, the sum of 100 florins ir. papfr. The .ulic Councillor, HAMMER, who rtecompasied him every where during his stay at Vienna, received as the reward of his services a lean horse, and one of his Excellency's greasy castoff shawls ! The wits of Vienna, for there are wits there as well elsewhere, have remarked, that if the horse was lean, the shawl at lea.t was fat enough. The Cour tiers of Vienna appear not to have taken into account the Oriental usage, according to which Ambassadors -tonsider that they have a right to be entertained, free of expense, by all those Sovereigns to whtln they have any mission to fulfil. Adv ices from Corfu state, that the investiture of the Lord High Commissioner of the lonian. Isles as Grand Master of the Order df Saint Michel and Saint Georges, has taken place in that city with the greatest solemnity. French 5 per Cents.--Shut price 68fr. 20c.

They present nothing new respecting the Legislative Bodies, having been anticipated by a late Flanders Mail. The following are extracts relating to other matters : ROME, FEBRUARY Ho. The Ex-King of Holland now lives here in the greatest retirement, and is wholly engaged with the education of his son. His sister the Princess Bor ghese, on the other hand, lives in great splendour. The Marquis of Douglas, who visited Bonaparte in Elba, and asked for his portrait, visits her often. COBLENTZ, MARCH 5. It is now five years since a Proclamation was issued by Mr. Justus Gruner, at that time Governor- General ; in which it is said—" Inhabitants of the Middle Rhine ! you are again become Germans. free and happy. The Regie (excise or Government's ma; Inopoly) of salt and tobacco; the Customs, the droll: reunis, the duties on inheritance, all these imposts are suppressed ; cunning, espionage, secret denuncattons+ will no longer persecute you. You will dwell with. security in your houses and cottages, and will freely exercise your industry." It was thus that Mr. Gruner expressed himself, in 1814, in the name of the Allied Powers. Acit was then Carnival time, the young . people made an al is gorical representation of the. interment of the,inw, pressed Duties; but it seems that some inadvatopt was committed at this interment, for several of the defunct have come to life again. 11.11.111. 1 . 111111M1....M1 1. • •vlit to erAkre it much LW/W.. b e reco. il • s • ' •I (lei: flexion would not have urged . .

We have Mote than omen, of late, endeaVourid to make Our voice be heard: in ibe * veal of *taming , among Commercial met. There will always be fdund a heedless race, on whom advice can have no effect; and these will he found, chiefly among those dishonest adventurers, who, having no property of their own, plunge Into hazardous speculations, with property not their Own: but surely the voice of com mon sense and self-defence may be expected to be listened to by some of those who have earned property of their own, by patient and honest industry. Let such—and who, in general, would be the last them selves to venture on any mad speculation—open their eyes to the danger of trusting their property on credit to men who embark in ill-founded foreign adven tures, withoutjudgment, capital, industry (except to defraud), or the smallest spark of honesty. In the course of last year, a considerable nuniier of respectable tradesmen quitted Leeds and some other manuficturing towns in Yorkshire, as well as several from Lancashire, to ,settle in South America; in some parts of which, particularly at Buenos Ayres, they have already begun to manufacture woollen' goods; and the enouragement and liberality they experience from the ruling Authorities there is likely to operate as a stimulus to others to follow their example. To such persons as are willing to accept of it, 'extensive grants of lands are made, either fee cultivation or the erection of manufactories, free from all charges or incumbrance whatever.—The follow ing is an extract of a letter from a Gentlemap, for merly of Leeds, who sailed from London in the ship Ebenezer in September last, addressed to his brother in this country, and received (via Liv erpool) on Saturday: " BUENOS AYRES, DECEMBEit is. " At last I have set my feet on this much-talked of land of liberty, after a most uncomfortable pass age of more than three months, as you will perceive by referring to the letter I sent you the day we left the River. We experienced a dreadful gale off Cape Horn, and were several days beating about at the mercy of the raves, without making the least way., We were well nigh foundering, and mere than ono; gave ourselves up for lost ; bad not the Ebenezer been a most excellent firm vessel, and well manned, it is impossible she could have weathered so severe a , gale. We saw a Spanish vessel go down right ahead of us, and every soul perished—she appeared to have a number of troops and passengers on board ; but, although we were within hail, the sea run so high that we could not render them the least assistance, nor save a single individual ; indeed, we every minute expected ourselves to share the same fate.—How ever, to have done with the perils of the voyage, thank GOD we have at last arrived in safety ; but have not yet had a sufficient opportunity to make myself thoroughly acquainted with the real state of affair. One thing however is certain, that all is going on favourably for the Patriotic cause in all the Provinces, and the best informed persons here cal culate with confidence on the expulsion or extirpation of every individual belonging to the armies of the Mother country, before the close cif the summer. " I ain sorry to have to inform you, that I found the markets quite overstocked with cotton end woollen goods; and such is the present stagnation of the trade in these articles, that they can actually be had at a lower rate than in the vicinity of the places where they are manufactured. There is at present no sale for them ; and yet fresh coasignments arc continually arriving. Great quantities have been re-shipped. This imprildent and over-strained spe culation has already been attended with ruinous consequences in several instances, and will be se verely felt for some time to come. " A vessel laden with 10,000 stand of arms, and other munitions of war, arrived yesterday ; she sailed filial England subsequent to our departure, and came by way of New York. She was most welcomely received, having been some time expected, and feats were entertained of her having been captured." . We have rece i ved N ewYork Papers this morning, • but rot of a later date than we have had before. The following are extracts : , The Portuguese ship Society, Captain Fstax, of about 800 tons, and loaded with crates of East . India ware, has been seized in the Chesapeake and brought up to Baltimore by the revenue cutter Active. When seized, she was in the possession of a prize crew under ARTIGAs'S flag. The Bermuda Gazette of the 2d instant, states on the authority of Private Letteri from the West Indies, that a number of vessels were immediately about .to be chartered to be sent to Bermuda to procure Ame rican provisions and lumber, with which that market was, at that time, but scantily supplied. A public sale of produce took place at Kingston, Jamaica, 4th December ; • the following was the re. suit :—Fer Sugars, 575. 7d. a 70s, per cwt.—Coffee, 151 s.

We are happy to say the Countess of LIV&RPOOL is recovering from her late severe indisposition. Lord SIDMOUTH and the Alisses - AmmtoroN had a splendid assembly last night, at their residence in Clifford-street, which was attended by the leading Nobility and Gentry.

His Excellency the 'Marquis IYOSMOND embarked at Dover yesterday morning, on board le Desire French packet, for Calais, under a salute front the Heights Battery. It is gratifying to he put in possession of a full and correct account of the late VOYAC F. to the AR:TIC REGIONS, at the moderate charge of Three Shillings, instead of being taxed to the amount of Three Gui neas, as is the general practice in regard to this Specks of w,wlc. In this respect, the New Jourhal y' Voyages and Travels is a public acquisition. Letters from Spaiii, received by the last mail, give assurance that proceedings had lately been fa lowed up, and sentence of death pronounced b.' tint High Tribunals in ,Barcelona,on fifty Spanish o:ri cers, implicated in the conspiracy of the unforto nate General I.Aev. The sentence had been refer:ed to a consultation with the King. From the peliod of the discovery of the _aid conspiracy up to the present time, these unhappy victims have no doubt been immured in dungeons, and possibly their fate has now been resolved upon, in consequence of the recent occurrences at Valencia. It must be confessed that Spain is in a delightful situation to send oat an Ex pedition against South America, when all the late attempts at redress, and a change of things within herself, haveoriginated with the military. Friday, the gates of Edinburgh Castle, Queens berry House, Piershill Barracks, and Leith Fort, were 'shut, and the military sentinels withdrawn from these Depots, previous to the approaching Election, which takes place on Monday for the county of Edinburgh. Sir Geonos CLERK, it is bzlieved, will be returned without opposition, Sir JOUR DALRYMPLE is going abread,.and has, for the present, declined the contest. Friday morning, Mr. RITCHIE, Master of the Clyde, Liverpool trader, was carried into Glasgow a 'corpse, in the London mail-coach. He was apparently in good health until the time when the coach was start s:lg from Hamilton, when he gave a loud scream, and fell on one of the passengers in a convulsed state, and it is their opinion that life was instantly extinct.
