ENGLISH AND BRISTOL CHANNELS' SHIP CANAL. TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. SIR —I pledge myself in the must unqualified manner, to prove to the satisfaction of any Gentleman who may favour me with a call; that unless the contract entered into by Subscribers, is so fl.amed as to bind them, their Heirs, Executori, and Admi nistrators, fot all the instalments of their Shares, notwithstanding a transfer of them, before the whole of the calls clue thereon shall have been made, such contract is not a compliance with the Standing Order of the House of Lords, No. 192. It is unnecessary to con trovert the opinions of the Attorney-General, and the other Bar risters consulted by Messrs. KING and Letts, so far as they go, and I should not presume to do it ; but it is quite clear that the House of Lords will (tf they allow the present contract to stand, and its effect be as contended for). insist upon the insertion of a Clause in the 818, rendering the Contractors permanently liable ; and whether such Contractors are liable, as the Deed is at present framed, is of little consequence, because they will undoubtedly be so, when the Bill passes into a law.—l am, Sir, your obedient Servant, Green's Hotel, Lincoln's-inn-fields, NICH.

The following is a comparative view of the Revenue, l Expenditure, and Commerce of France and England since the year 1819 t The English Finances in the year 1819 'exhibits an annual charge, For unredeemed Funded Debt, of ' . X 30,012,032 The year 1824, of . . . . 27 233 * 670 A ...........-.4., Decrease 2,778,362 The former year gave, for interest paid or remaining due on the Unfunded Debt . . . 2,815,098 The latter year , i • • • 860,000 , . Decrease . . . For the year 1819 the exoenbe of the Army, Zan; and Ordnance was . a . For 1825 it is estimated at ' . . . i,953,098 17,705,150 15,271,518 Decrease . . 2,459,02 And adding together these three sums, viz. X 2,778,362,41,855,098, and X 2,430,832, we have a total reduction of £7,164,092. • Meanwhile the income has improved in a similar manner. • That of the year 1819 was . . . 56,040,108 53,143,305 Apparent surplus Deduct balance of Revenue of the year 1818 2,896,803 2,257,935 Real surplus . • • 638,868 Which last sum, however, would be wholly absorbed by the interest of the Unfunded 11:13t, which became due in the course of the year beyond what is charged. The Income and Expenditure i f 1824 can only be fairly compared with those of 1819, by excluding the arrangement of the Halt-pay Annuities, and then the account will stand_thus : Income Expenditure £54,745,403 49,990,801 Surplus . £4,752,202 Thus there is a positive improvement of Income 'over expenditure (exclusive of the Half-pay atrAnge ment) to the amount of nearly Five M llions And fin Ally, by means of diminished expenditure on the one hand, and improved income on the other, the British Government has been enabled to remit taxes, since 1820, equal to above ten millions per annum ! • Nor should we omit to state, that the official value of our Expotts and Impor.s, For 1819, was For 1824, X 74,162,105 104,954,757 Increase £30,792,658 Comments on such results 45 these are superfluous; let us, then, in the nest place, see *hat our neighbours, the French, have been about in the same time. The &ages is( the ordinary expenses of France, For the tear 1819 £34,449,554 . 1820 • 34,965,146 1821 . 35,258,304 1844 . $8,045,818 • 1825 • 39,903,538 But in the year 1828 there is a further charge of 8,310,7231. for the extraordinaries of the war in Spain : here, therefore, is an increase in the ordinary current expenditure of 5,543,9841. wh ile the Budgets shew an improvement in the Reienue, from 1818 to 1824, inclusive, of only 3,112,2201. In the face of these facts it will not appear surprising, that the annual charge for the unredeemed debt, which, on the Ist of January, 1820, was 6,400,0001. should be on the Ist January, 1825, 6,440,0001.. with an outstanding float ing debt of which it would be difficult to form a cor rect estimate. Reduction of taxes has been necessarily incompatible with such an augmentation of the public expenditure, and the late discussions in the Chambers have proved that future relief in this way can only spring from the progressive improvement of the revenue. The charge for the Indemnity to the Emigrants will balatce the re duction of.the Renter. The value of the Exports and Imports of Frame is estimated Annually, it . . X 34,000,000 Of her soil and industry, at . X 259,952,400 Of which there is consumed at home 259,046,40 Making a total of . X 5111,995,800 Measured by this power of production _and con sutivtion, the foreign trade of France, in her admirable geographical position, appears perfectly insignificant, and can only be the result of false notions on political economy, in a people so distinguished by natural intelligence. .

The SPEAKER observed, that it was merely an understanding for the cenvenience of Members, that the earlier part of each even ing should be devoted to Petitions, but whenever the case required, that practice might he departed from. Lord A LT UMW explained. Mr. LITTLETON said that the course pursued by the Noble Lord had been previously pursued by the Secretary for. the Home Department. Mr. CA LCRA FT said th.ft the present Conversation was most asorderly—(Hear). The Honourable Gentleman continued, by -observing that every Member had a right, on any emergency, to make a motion, without regard to the number of Petitions to be presented. The Noble Lord never thought that ally conversation would arise. It was inip - ortant, however. that it siseu'd be settled at what time precisely the public business wail to commence. The SPEAKER admitted that much inconvenience had arisen from the quantity of private business lx:fore the House during the Session. He himself was ready to attend at any earlier hpur fgr th e purpose of getting through the hu,inesa of the !louse. Mr. BROUGHAM suggested that one clear day in each week might be appropriated to private business. This would save a great deal of expense to the suitors. He thought Saturday might be de voted to that purpose.—The Bill was then ordered to be re-cons. mitted until Tuesday nett, and the Report to be received on Mondat. Sir M. W. RIDLEY presented a Petition front the Stamen of Hull, prowsting against the charges made against them, an,l praying that their Petition might be referred to the Committee, and that they might be heard in their defence. Mr. SYKES supported the payer of the 'Petition, and spoke In favour of the general good conduct of the Petitioners.—Ordered to be referred to the Committee.

Sir J. OWEN presented a Petition from the Town of Pem broke, against the Catholic Clainis.

LETHBRIDGE presented a Pention from Langton (Somerset), against the Catholic Claims. And another Petition . from Bath, in favour of the Cruelty to Animals' Bill.—All ordered to be printed. Lord NUGENT presented a Petition •frout Leighton-Buzzard, comalaining of *lbe arbitrary manner in which a publican in that town bad been deprived of his license, and praying that the licens ing Laws might be inquired into.

MONCK bore testimony to the evils of the mode in which li s it were granted and withheld. . mars inquired whether Government meant to renew the Lieg Act, whisk would shortly expire t • Mr. Secretary PEEL was not prepared to answer the question,- An a few days he should be.—Ordered to be printed. Mr. DENMAN presented a Petiticn from the opera tive Mechanics of Walsall, * against the Combination Laws. The Learned Gentleman was of opinion that the common law was sullicknt to put dozen any com bination amongst workmen,. without enacting any new statutes. It was advisable, however, that MEMbers should keep their minds free from prejudice, in order to come fairly to the .dk cussion of the question. Ile objected to the ekes,' fa the HM„ giving a summary power of conviction to Magistrates, wiieteaikall acts of violence ought to be left to the ordinary tribunate. Mr. HU.4E agreed that the summary clause was unnecessary. It was not one of his proposition, but was done by the other Members of the Committee. An unfounded outcry bad arisen against the law of last Session. That`law was neither hasty nor erode, and it did not repeal any laws which pu nished acts of violence or illegal combination. It merely telievtd peaceable meetings from punishment. Mr. Secretary PEEL wished rhat no premature dis cussion should take place. He doubted whether the common law punished combinations of workmen against their masters. That doubt ought to be cleared up. The second clause of the Act was very obscure, and might be connoted as authorising all sorts of combination, abd amounted to an obsolete repeal of all other Statutes, and the common law aloe The de claration of the Learned entleman was important, and the doubt sinsild be settled. He th ought that the precipitate veal of thirty lire Acts of Parliament was a very grave proceeding. Mr. SCA RLETT said that if he had been in the House when IM Bill passed, he should have opposed the Clause. The common I law was quite sufficient to punish any illegal combination. The common law had been repealed by the recent law, and the. matter should be taken IBM consideration. Mr. BARING thought the repeal had been productive of great mischief. The evil was infinitely aggravated, and the country was threatened with great dangers. He did not know whether k would be sufficient to re-enact all the old Statutes, but something ought.to be done, and that speedily. Mr. it GURNEY expressed his desire that more attention should be paid to the subject. Mr. J. WILLIAMS said, that if all the obje'c ions he bad heard were well founded, they would only prove that all le gislation was in vain. lie did not believe that any nicrease of combination had taken place since the repeal. The law as altered left the power of punishing just as it stood beftire. He thought that the constant recurrence to a Magistrate, instead of waiting to apply in coolzr moments to the remedy by indictment . , was a great evil. Mr. SYKES Spoke In favour of the cautious ani: diligent veer - duct of the Committee. Whatever of precipitation there bad barn s was ascribable to the House and not to the Committee. Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that of all the Committees this appeared to be the most sensitive. He never dragged the C immittee with precipitation, but he charged the House with rashneis In passing some of the clauses in the Mil. He could not but reprobate those clauses which anovniewut ausherksd cotubinations—(Hear, hear). . . . . Sir J. NEWPORT said, that all freedom of trade would be destroyed if wcrkmen were al'.owed to Com bine together. Thena might be many evils arisingfit.m the combination, although there should be no violence. Those evils ought to .be corrected, un.lt the pubilit.l,.. (crests required it. No number of men should be allowed to fix a rate of wages in any branch of Manufactures. It would ruin rho manufacturer, and would also rain tbernseie!s... Mr. Donnie, Mr. Seaways. and 31r. Huns explained. • Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that the combinations were of a very serious character.

In one of the Councils held the day before yesterday, the Canon Rotas, Councillor of State, expressed a wish that the Bull of the Tope might be carried into mat tion, by which his Holiness granted to Charles IV.. the liberty to sell a seventh part of the la:ads of the Clergy, a wish which has been frequently expressed in the Council of Ministers, but always without success, and which will be equally unavailing at this time. /BONI THE COURIER FRANCAIS OP MONDAY. MADRID, APRIL 21. S:nce the moment that our Cabinet has been in formed how Xr:gland was disposed towards our ancient Colonies, a report was generally spread that the Powers of the Continent had urged our Monarch to adopt a more moderate system of Government, and to make some coneessions which are required by the spirit of the age, and the wants of the enlightened part of • the na tion. There was reason to hope that an intercession from so.high a quarter would riot be without effect, and that it would not have less influence on our Cabinet on account of the situation in - which England places Spain by tecegnizing the new States of South America. These repo, is gained so much credit, that our fanatics were setiously alarmed, and this party, at the head of which we must place the superior Clergy, has lost none of its it fluence at Court ; the King his thought it pro per to declare his teal sentiments on this subject. With this view the Gazette published a Royal Decree, in which, after commending the course he had adopted up to this day, he declares nis intention of abiding by it.
