Lrl PER lAL PARLIAM ENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, JULY 25. THE LOON PENRAOII. Ater the exait ation of a sinle witness, the further considers. aim f of this' question *as postponegd till next &WOO. WESTMFATH e. SALVIDURT. The further consideration of this case, in which the Marquis of Westmeath is appellant, and the Marquis of Salisbury respondent. was also postponed till next Session, by which time it is expected that the appeal case pending in the High Court of Delegates, be tween the Marquis and Marchioness of Westmeath, will bedecided. 411DANIANI AND OTHERS V. TRW& This was an appeal from the Court 01 Session, Scotland, under circumstances arising out of the peculiar nature of the laws in that ry count affecting persons of diseased intellects. Mr. Price a , one of the parties, conceiving himself of weak mind, appointed n agent or trustee. without whose sanction no act of his own was to be binding. After doing so so it years the agent declined the trust, and an order issued to the Sheriff Depute of the shire in which Mr. Price resided. to ascertain whether Mr. Price was sane or not. The return to this writ was, that he was of weak capacity, and 'under this return be was placed under restraint. Lord F.LOOO, who moved their Lordships to affirm this decision, remarked, that in this country it would be necessary to have the finding of a Jury that the man was of insane mind, previous to any restraint being imposed'opon him. The House of Lords had di rected a case to the Lords of Session in Scotland, requiring their opinion as to the legality of the steps taken, and the result was, that they were established by custom so long, that he (Lord Eldon) would not advise their Lordships to disturb it; but the practice was one which the House could not sanctioo except from necessity. The judgment was affirmed, and the appeal dismissed without costs, Wow.' V. ![ALL. The LORD Cooney-Los, in moving their Lordships in this appeal. remarked it was a most unfortunate cause. I; was an ap peal from the Irish Court of Chancery, and the decree appealed aainst was the obtainedarose right possessed by the father of ' Neale to sell s property which had been fixed on him for life, and his issue tail male ; the property was in Argyleshire, and the question must be considered as affected by the laws of Scotland. The House of Lords, in 1817, bad directed an order to the Master in Ire land, after full evidence of the facts had been gone into before their Lordships to ascertain the law of Scotland , on which, if is favour of the a ppellant, the case was understood to be decided fee him. The law was so found, but the Irish Lord Chancellor (Mass ners) pronounced his decree the other way—thus setting at nought the decision of this House, and that without his having heard any additional evidence. He (the Lord Chancellor) therefore now moved their Lordships, that the order of the Court below be re versed, and the exceptions to Master's report disallowed. • The motion was carried nem. con. The Bari of SHAFTESBURY presented a Petition from the inhabitants of Lutterwortb, praying for the abolition of Negro Slattery. The Sugar Bill was read a second time. The F.:chequer BHI and Butter Trade (Ireland) Bill were read a third time and pawed, when the House adjourned. .1 .- Hl4 . _; EVENING STAR. THURSDAY, JULY 24, 1828. LONDON. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The Consol market appears very heavy this morning, as Consols opened at 261 5, and have since been done at 865. In the Foreign market scarcely any business is done as yet. CITY, HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK. The Canso! Market has been looking very heavy the whole of the morning till within a short period, when a slight improvement took place. Consols have been luctuating between 865 and 865 for the Account, with less business doing than for these four days put. Consols at present may be quoted 865 I. The state of the weather is attributed as the cause for the dullness of all business. The private letters from Lisbon are very gloomy, and state that the future situation of Portugal entirely depends on the conduct which will be pursued by foreign Powers. It is supposed that Don russo will demand his Treaties with them to be put into execu tion. They also state that the sincerity of Spain is much doubted, as a large Spanish force is assembling on the frontiers. Up to the present time we have no further accounts from the East, or any Express from Paris. • . PRICK OF STOCKS AT FOUR O'CLOCK. Bank Stock 2101 11 104 India South 111 112 S per Cent.

Five or six hundred of the latter had surrendered themselves, having abandoned twelve pieces of artillery ; several deserters had returned. and others had been taken prisoners and sent to Oporto.— All hopes of maintaining this unfortunate cause seem to have vanished for the present, and the new Sore reign, considering himself firmly seated on the throne, liar mArked the epoch of his accession by an Act of Grace, pardoning all persons in the prisons of Lisbon and Oporto. The demand of our, countryman, Sir lam Dolma, by the British Consul, has hitherto been at tended with no success ; indeed, his efforts seem to be laughed at by the Government that committed this unjust and tyrannical act. The intelligence from Constantinople, extracted from the French Papers, appears somewhat contradictory to that of yesterday. It is now affirmed that a levy en masse of the population has been ordered, and that the SULTAN will immediately take the field, and hoist the Standard of the Prophet.— But notwithstanding all this, the difficulties of main taining the fortifications on the coast are so great, the pecuniary means of the Potent so straitened, and his sinews of war consequently so relaxed, that it would pot be surprising if the SULTAN shculd in the end pm fleetly concede the point in the Greek question, and place itself under the protection of the Treaty of Lou don. The article from Vienna mentions that our Go vernment intends to require of the Emperor of RUSSIA an explanation of the guarantees and indemnities he requires of the Poem The word " guarantee" is somewhat an unlucky one in the history of our domestic kits ; but we apprehend that the Declaration o 1 ar published by the Emperor NICHOLAS is sufficiently 11 hi, hi_k+l eciganatory of the grounds of the contest he is waging, and of the objects be has if; view. In another column will be found longer extracts from American Papers than we had space for yesterday. Great discontent and misunderstanding seems to pre wail between the Northern and Southern States. and the latter have inculcated doctrines which the New York Paper styles , 4 treasonable, and recommending a disso lution of the Union." FROM VIZ FRINCH PAPERS. RECEIVED THIS MORNING BY THE MAIL. PARIS, JULY 22. The critical situation of Portugal and our relations with Spain seems to have had some effect on the eva cuation of Cadiz, and the orders are going to be modi fled. According to accounts from the above city of the sth inst. the convoy is to leave on the Bth or 10th July, and will only bring back to France a regiment of infantry, one of cavalry, and two companies of artillery, amaunting in the whole to 3,000 men. It is affirmed that the Lieutenant-General commanding at Cadiz has re ceived orders to augment the garrison to 9,000 men, and only to send back the sick. A company of artillery in garrison at Perpignan, which was to retire into the interior, has received counter orders—tbe same has taken place at Bayonne.

A new Director was chosen on Wednesday, to fill the vacant seat in the Directory of the Bank of New South Wales. Mr. Lawson, resident and Magistrate, was elected. The Bank of Australia, for the last half year, declared a dividend of nine per cent. while the divi dend of the bank of New South Wales only amounted to six per cent. The Colonial Government schooner Mermaid, which arrived from the North yesterday, brings most disastrous accounts of hardships in various ways, and mortality suffered at the settlements of Melville Island and Port Essington ; among the deaths at Melville Island is that of Dr. Wood, Staff Surgeon.

A brig of 167 tons burthen, only one year and four months old, which cost about 7,000 dollars, and worth, before the passing of the Tariff 5,000 dollars at this market, has been just now sold for 2,800 dollars, and yet we are told the Tariff will not hurt our navigation! The Flanders Mail has brought us Brussels Papers of yesterday's date, and the Algemeine Zeitung, to the 18th instant, extracts from which are subjoined. It is stated under the head of Frankfort, that the province of Bosnia had revolted against the Sovereignty of the Porte, and the insurgents having seized on the strong citadel of Sarajewo had imprisoned the VIZIER, and declared for an independent Government. Should this information prove correct, what with the Russian army on its victorious march in the interior of fur key, and the revolt of the Bosnians, the GRAND SRIGNOR will will find employment for all his resources.

" I have been informed that the Pach.r of Smyrna is afraid that the ships of war under my command may come and alarm his city under a foreign flag. I lose no time in informing you, Sir, that my august master does not desire to extend the evils of war, or permit any harm to be done to the peaceable inhabitants of the Ot toman towns and villages; that his Majesty does not even desire to impede the commerce of neutral Powers, as far as blockades recognised by treaties do not prevent it; and that consequently the Pacha h,ss nothing to fear from such a visit from vie ships *of war under my command. " What could we do among you ? Burn or plunder and injure the European population of Smyrna, without object, and without any real advantage to our cause or that of our allies. " I therefore request and authorise you, Sir, to dispel any alarms that may be entertained on this subject. " L. DE HEY DEN." To this letter is annexed the copy of a circular, from the Russian Government to its representatives at the Coarts of the maritime Powers of Europe, dated 29th 1 April, which states. that Count Heyden has orders to respect on all occasions the rights of neutral Powers, according to the Conventions concluded between Russia and Great lii itaia. SMYRNA, Jim 18 It is affirmed that Count Capo &Istria will be obliged to have recourse to more energetic measures to govern the Greek nation, especially since the discovery of the conspiracy of Colocorroni, who has been arrested, with twenty-five of his accomplices The President, while he was at Poros, gave a formal audience to the Greek Bishops sent by the Sultan to propose an amnesty, and dismissed them with an admonition to leave the Greek territory, because their addresser, in which they call upon the people to return to their obedience to the Porte, cannot be tolerated by the Greek Government. FHA NIVORT, JI'LV EMU= OP A ulna MOM 'MINA, iiiutsvto PT ripsaw The General commanding in Sclavonia, in a letter dated the 4th of this month, says—" That Bosnia is in full revolt against the Porte : the ringleaders have seized on the citadel Sarajewo—have ariested and imprisoned the Vizier, intercepted the Courier who was to carry the news to Constantinople, and, in concert with one . Haisan Pechi, who formerly excited troubles in the country, have a kind of independent Government. " This event, which is in itself unf Itunate, may have a bad effect on the tranquillity of Servia, for Abdurab man Facha, Vizier of Bosnia, and formerly Governor of Salonichi, and afterwards of Belgrade, was the man whom the Servians most dreaded.

An Express arrived at the Foreign Office, Downing street, between four and bee o'clock yesterday afternoon, bringing dispatches from Lisbon. D i spatches were received yesterday, dated 22d May, from klajor-General Somme, at the Cape. They relate principally to matters of local interest. The Right Hon. ROBERT GORDON, from the Brazils, is to be Ambassador from our Court to the Court of Madrid. The Marquis of Hitavroao is considerably recovered from his late severe indisposition. The Duke of GRAPTON entertained a distinguished party at dinner yesterday, at his house in Clarges.street. Sir C. WETHERELL, Bart. had a grand dinner party on Tuesday, at his house. Whitehall-place. Mr. 'lvi.scoira arrived on Tuesday night with dis patches from Mr. BOSAIQUIT, our Charge d'Affaires at Madrid. •Mr. PEEL, it appears, has dispensed with the appoint ment of two of Mr. Baosiostax's Charity Commissioners, which affords a tolerable presumption that a smaller number would have answered the purpose in the first instance. The City Authorities are widening the foot pavement on each side of Lombard-street, an improvement which has long been wanted in that crowded thoroughfare.

Its stately ball bas been long used as a barn, and often visited by the carious. This Palace is supposed to have been built prior to 1270. For several centuries it was a favourite retreat erase English Monarchs. Hamar 111. kept his Christmas here in a sumptuous style, accom panied by his Queen and all the great men ot the realm. I. the next reign ANTHONY Bach, Bishop of Durham, obtained possession of it, and left it to the Crown. The Queen of EnwAiao 111. was here delivered of a son, who bad the name of Joint of EJtkans, from the place of his birth. Haute VIII. gave a grand feast here at Whitsuntide. in 1515, when be created Sir EDMUND STAuLIY, Baron Monteagk, for his services at Fisuiden.field. Queen &masers, who was born at Greenwich, was frequently carried thence to &khans, when an infant, for the bepefit of the air, and this place she visited in 1559: but, on the rise of Greenwich, the Paine was deserted.—Likrory Chrrsick. Lord Amherst and his family arrived at Portsmouth on Tuesday from India. On his voyage, his Lordship landed at the Cape of Good Hope, where he met Lord William Bentinck, his successor in the Chief Govern ment of India. The Noble Earl's departure from Cal cutta is thus noticed in the Calcutta John Boll: CALCUTTA, MARCH 5.1125. "This morning the Right Hon. E arl Amherst em barked at Chadpaul Ghaut, on board his Majeqy's yacht Herald, for England. The Countess and Lady Sarah, whose healtt., we ate happy to say, is improving„ preceded his Lordship in their carriage. The road' s from Government House was lined with the 59th RegiH ment ot Foot, the Body Guard and Sepoys forming al 'beet, through which his Lordship walked, attended by Sir C. Grey, Sir E. Ryan, the Lord Bishop, the Hos. W. B. Bayley, his Lord.hip's Staff, the several Secre• taries, and a number cf other Gentlemen. 11 Exactly at seven o'cliick his Lordship left Govern ment House ; and on arriving at the Ghaur, said a few words to those around him, expressive, we believe—for we wete not near enough to near the precise words— of his regret at circumstances attending his departure, but acknowledging the kind attention be had ever re ceived from the society he was leaving. He embarked on board the State barge at twelve minutes past seven, for the yacht, whose yards were manned, as well as the yards ot the different Government vessels. At twenty minutes past seven his Lordship reached the yacht, and immediately afterwards the Hon. Company's steamer Enterprise, Capt. Johnston, R.N. lashed her alongside. Soon after passing the fort a royal salute was fired, and before half past eight o'clock the two vessels were out of sight of the town. The Enterprise will tow the yacht down to the Trades, returning to Trincomalee or Ma dras for coals, on her way back to Bengal. A great number of pet sons were assembled on the Esplanade and Ghaut, and the boats on the river rendered the scene highly interesting." The French lottery has this year been a gainer, as compared with the six months in 1827, of the enormous sum of 2,505,000 francs (100,2001.) the greater part of which has been extracted from the pockets of the labouring population. An immense speculation is about to be undertaken, at the head of which is said to be M. LAWITTE, for the purpose of draining all the marshes in France. There are not fewer than 1,200 square miles of bogs and fens in that country. Government patronises the under taking, and taxes on the drained lands will be remitted during twenty-Fee years. WORTNINO.—This place has recently assumed its l wonted summer gaiety, and is filling very fast with families of rank and distinction. Most of the large houses ate already occupied, and those on a smaller scale, as well as the best lodgings, are in hourly requi sition, and if we may judge from present appearances, a brilliant season may be anticipated. The Hotels are participating in the influx of arrivals, and the libraries and public promenades are alternately giving anima. tion to the scene. With respect to the town itself, many improvements have been made, and a variety of new erections increase the degree 01 attraction to which it has for many years maintained a decided claim ; and its vicinity abounds with everything that constitutes the picturesque and beautiful in lanstape and scenery.

VAUXHALL GARDENS. Last night the spirited Proprietors of this Fairy Land gratified a numerous company by a repetition of the splendid Coronation Fete. The illuminations were of surpassing brilliancy, and dazzled with all the colours of the rainbow. The entertainments of the night were of the most attractive character, and the performers exerted themselves with the energy which the effect of a crowded audience must invariably inspire. The se Vaudeville," with which the performances commenced, called forth bursts of laughter, and the Ballet was per• formed in the finest style of excellence, and tutu& universal admiration. The Harlequinade received a copious treasure of noisy approbation ; and the Concert, in which the whole musical strength of the performers was put in requisi tion, drew down reputed rounds of long continued applause. The decorations of the Gardens, in addition to the increased splendour of variegated illuminations, were well calculated to surprise and delight. T one excited more attention than the Thames Tunnel, in which a number of full grown men and women were een, as if admiring its wonderful construction. The astonishing Hydropyric Exhibition, with all its numerous cascades of coltured fire and variegated water, excited the unbounded admiration which such a combination of the powers of nature and wonders of art can never fail to produce. Notwithstanding the wetness of the day, the evening was propitious, and the appearance of the visitors bore ample testimony to the estimation in which the talent and liberality excited lur their entertainment is justly held. THE LATE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY. The remains of his Grace are at present lying in the apartment of the Palace in which he breathed his la.t. It is not intended that the , body shall lie in state, as has been the fri quent custom with most of his Grace's pre decesgors in the Archiepiscopal See. The day for the in terment is not yet fixed, but it is understood t iat it wad be either on Saturday cr Tuesday. The funeral wilt, it is said, be a strictly private one, none but the blends and relations of the deceased, and are Bishops and Clergy of the diocese, being to be present. The Lady of the new Bishop of Carlisle, one of the deceased Arci bishop's daughters, and Mrs. Croft, are at pi esent in re Palace at Lambeth. LIBRARY OF THE LORD PRIMATE; The Library at Lambeth Palace was founded by Archbishop Bancroft, in 1610. His successor, Abbot, took great pains to secure the books to the See, and at bit death much increased them. During the Civil %Vat they were deposited at Cambridge, at the suggestion of the celebrated Seldon, that Trinity College, in that Uni versity, had a reversionary right to them, on the aboli tion of the hierarchy. Here they remained till the lte storatioa, when they were returned to ArchbishoP Sheldon, who made a considerable addition to them. — Archbishop Tennison also bequeathed part of his boob to this Library, as did Archbishop Cornwallis; and the number of them amounts t 025,000 volumes. On the north east window is painted, in glass, the portrait of St. Ati• gustine, with old English verses beneath it; and near a figure of Archbishop Chicheky, with the motto r 1 Archbishop Stafford, put here by the mistake 0 1 a glazier. This Library is adorned with a fine picture of Canterbury Cathedral, and prints of all the Ail bishops from Wuhan to the present time. Here, `°' Archbishop Cornwallis placed some small prints, fram ed, of the principal reformers from Popery, and of the most eminent non-conformist Ministers of the last 3 01 previous century. The shell of a tortoise is shorn', which a label is affixed, importing that this tortoise vas put in the garden by Archbishop Laud, and killed to 1757 by the negligence of a gardener. This Libral stands over the Cloisters, and forms a narrow Gallery. which occupies the four quarters of a quadrane: Among the books is an octavo edition of the LitusgY' the Church of England, translated into the Motu!' language by the famous Indian. Chief, Colonel Drina The Library of MSS. stands over part of the Libor" f printed Books, and contains about 11,000 11414n0. 00 scripts, many of which are curious. Archbishop Ctt; wallis gave a considerable sum for the fi ttin g UP °I proper repository for this Collection.
