FROM THE V I STVL A, ICLY t. Several corps in the interior of Russia, now on their march to the Dnieper, including a great proport on of light cavalry (probably Cossack.), are said to have re ceived positive orders to regulate their march in such a manner, as to reach their destin itiun by the beginning of August. Among the infantry in the camp near War- W are the regiments belonging to the Lithuanian corps. The re g iments of what i. properly the Polish army, which 1 ft their stations, as we know, some m , nths a g o, took up very concentrated positions near Lublin, where, it appears, they are for the present to remain. (The Prusaian State Gazette to the 12th of July in clusive has no further new: from the theatre of war). IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, JULY 17. The Improvement of Justice (India) Bill, the Excise Duties Bill, and the Bombay Marine Bill, were severally read a third time. The New South Wales Bill, and the Cities and Towus in Ire. land Bills, were reported, with Amendments. ' answerable by law in the same manner as individuals. With respect to their general tends, they had the same liberty as individuals. This was the law. He spoke in the presence of lawyers, who would correct him if he were wrong. The Noble Lord supported thii Bill on the ground of something which he said had taken place at Leicester. The same had been formerly said with respect to the Corporation of Northampton ; but when an inquiry was instituted, the conduct of that Corporation appeared to be perfectly justifiable. The same, he believed, would be found to be the case_ at Leicester if as inquiry took place. The facts were, that the two candidates (Mr. 0. Cave and Sir C. Hastings) had agreed to pay each a certain sum towards the ex penses of their election, the Corporation undertaking to guarantee them against any further charge. Mr. 0 Cave had since denied having entered into any such agreement, and refused to pay. Sir C. Hastings had .peid his proportion. In consequence of the default of one of the candidates, the.Cor puration were involeediss .en espouse not orieinally contemplated. But for this certain members of the Corporation were individually liable; and it he Corporation relieved them by an ille gal application of any funds, he knew enough of the borough of Leicester to be quite certain that they would have to answer for their conduct before a Court of Law. Is was said that Corporations had no right to apply their funds to election purposes. He must con tend that they had this right, and that in our mixed • Constitutioo the influence of Corporations was most beneficial. The money might have been laid out for legal purposes—the conveyance of .ont-voters, f is- in stance. Mr. Evans, a candidate for the representation of Leicester, had spent 20,0001. for this purpose alone. The boroughs where the influence was in. the hands of ,the Corporations were generally much purer and better conducted than those which were called independent boroughs. It was in the latter almost exclusively that gross ptofligacy - and corruption were prevalent. If they took away from Corporations the poa er ot mailitaining their influence by means of their own funds, the .effect must inevitably be to throw them into the hands of some indiyidual Peer or Commoner of the neighbour hood, possessed of great wealth. He opposed the Bill upon the grounds both of justice and expediency, and he could not refrain from again expressing his astonish ment that it should have fallen to the lot of his Noble Friend, who had given at least his silent acquiescence to the opposition he had offered to a similar measure upon a previous occasion, to be now the mover of the second reading of this Bill. He should propose that the Bill be read a second time this .day twee eneniths. Lord GODERICH explained. He had no recollec tion of having assist .d his Noble Friend in his opposi tion to the former Bill. _ The Elul of ROSSLYN supported the Bill. The legitimate influence of Corporations were salutary ;but that influence which required the expenditure of 27,000 i. was not legitimate. The Corporations ought not to have the unlimited power of applying the funds entrusted t i them for public purposes to any object they pleased.' ' The Earl of ELDON had opposed the former Bill upon Constitut onal principles, which equally applied •o the present Bill, and be would thereforestrenuously oppose it Upon the state of the law there could be no doubt whatever. All Corporations had the cont , oul ose. their tunds in the same manner as individuals. It would be all estreinely harsh proceeding to deprive all the Corpor..t ons of the kingdom of their rigl is because the Corpus 4tion i f Leicester had acted improperly, even . if the fast were well established; but it did not appear -t i him, from all he had heard or read, that t tore was lany thing improper in what the Corporation of Lei cester had done.

Mr. MANNING took this opportunity of remarking upon a Petition on this subject, which was last night presented from Do. ver, the Petitioners there praying, that as Runs was the produce of slave labour, it should net be used in his Majesty's Navy. He contended that our West India Colonies was a valuable nursery . for British seamen; and AS to Christianity, he was satisfied that it was cultivated with great care and attention in every part of the West Indies. Mr. W. SMITH said. that the objections stated by the Hon. Member could in no degree apply to the Petition which he bad presented. Mr. BERNAL thought it was generally understood that this question was to be dropped at so late a period of the Session. He thought silence would, on the present occasion, be the best policy.— The Petition was ordered to be printed. Mt. FY LEI gave notice, that early in the next Session he would moue for the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the state of the Silk Trade. Alf. G. 0.

HARVEY presented a Petition from a Gentleman of the name of W. H. Yaw, complaining of the state of the Law, which allowed persons to place out a fund for the purpose of pro. tecting wrongous purchases. It was highly penal so to put up any such tund, and it was his intention in the next Session to bring in a Bill upon the subject. In fact such was the expense of obtaining justice either in a Cour; of Equity or Law, that it might be ailed a denial of justice. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL would not object to the Peti tion being laid upon the table, bat he did not think it ought to be printed.—Ordered to be laid on the table. SZNIFICIES REGULATION. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL moved the third reading of the Benefices Regulation &IL Dr. LUSHINGTON opposed this Bill, as it for the first time gave the owner of benefices a power of nar- 1 rowing the period during which the Clergyman should hold his benefice ; and when once a benefice was given to any Clergyman, he should have it for the term of his natural life. Such had been the wholesome practice of the Protestant Church, and such he hoped it would ever continue to be. The ATTORNEY GENERAIE. supported the on the ground that where a benefice was conditionally IILOX THIC COMMoNS. Sir A. GLANS, and other Members, brought up the Customs Bill, the Naval and Military Pensions Act Repeal Bill, the Slave Trade Act Consolidation all, the Deserted Children (Ireland) B.U, the Turnfrike Acts Consolidation Bill, the Lambeth Charity Estates Bill, and two Private Bills, which were severally read a first time. The Cinque Ports Bill passed through a Committee. The Savings Banks Act Amendment Bill was read a second time. The Duke of WELLINGTON moved that the Promissory Notes (Ireland) Bill be read a third time. The Marquis of DOWNSIIIRE would oppose the MI. It bad taken the persons interested by surprise. He hoped the Noble Duke would postpone the third reading until to-nuntow, when he gave owl ce of his intention to propose that the measure be defer red until neat Session. The Duke of WELLINGTON said, that the Bill did not or& ' ginate with his Majesty's Government, but as be approved of its provisions be had undertaken to watch its progress through their Lordship' House; but he had no wish to urge it forward precipi. Lately. He would therefore consent to postpone the third reading -until to-morrow. He certainly did wish that it should pass this Session; bur if it should appear to morrow that the House were de sirous of its postponement to the nest Session, he should not resist it. . . The Marquis of DOWNSH expressed bis thanks to the Noble Duke for his ready compliance with his request. CORPORATION FUND BILL. Lord GODERICH moved that this Bill be read a ,econd time. He would occupy their Lordships for a very short time, while he stated his reasons for support ing this measure. The funds of Corporations were en trusted to them for special tit poses, far local improve-, ments or charitable objects. It was highly objection able that Corporations should retain the power of ap plying these funds to any kind of speculation ; to trad ing speculations, or to speculations in joint stock com panies. But it was still more objectionable that they should be at liberty to speculate in Members of Parlia ment. He would not dwell upon the circumstances which bad taken place at Northampton, or at Leice ter, as they were already very notorious, particularly with respect to the latter place. Their Lordships would be astonished to he.; that the Corporation of Leicester had expended a sum of 27,0001. for election purposes. If this was to be tolerated, there could be no limits. They might expend 270,0001. as well as 27,0001. and not con tent with influencing the election for their own boroughs, they might even aspire to govern the elections for other boroughs or for counties. The LORD CHANCELLOR had paid great atten tion to this Bill, and be felt it to be his duty to oppose, it. He was somewhat sui prised that the Bill had the support of his Noble Friend. In the last Session a si milar Bill had been before Parliament, arising out of some supposed irregularity in the conduct of the Cor poration of Northampton. He opposed that Bill, and it his memory did not greatly deceive him, his opposi tion had the silent acquiescence of his Noble Friend. Corporations, with respect to their trust funds, were [PRICE SEVENPENCIL given, it should be in the power of the Patron to take it again into his o*n patronage. Such bargains had been and continued to be the practice, and to give Va lidity to it the present Bill was necessary. He admitted . that the subject was one of difficulty, but as bonds if resignation had been frequently given, it would be ne- cessary that the parties giving them should be bound by their own acts. Mr. R.. GORDON supported the Bill, and thought it did not go far enough. The laws of simony, as they now existed, were extremely absurd, and the subject should as• speedily as possible be brought before the no tice of the House. The SOLICITOR GENERAL admited that diffi culties attended this subject; but if this Bill were not passed, still greater would continue to eri.r. General bonds of resignation were always considered to be le gal ; besides, by this Bill it was secured, that if the person .to be subsequently provided fur did _not. take holy orders. then that the person in. possession should hold the ►enefcte. Tois would prevent a great deal of . abuse. and would etrible those persons who could make provision for the younger hranchescf th. it families, to do an act of justice to their relatives, and give young men of education and family to the service of the Church, than which nothing could be more desirable. Mr. SUG DES supported the Bill. The Bill was then read a third time and passed. BARILLA -SOAP. Mr. ROBINSON moved for a Return of the quantity of Ba: rilla imported into Great Britain since the year 1817; and a (de -1 turn of the exports of Soap since the year 1820 to the present PREROGATIVE COURT. Mr. HUME rose to present the Petition of wkich he had given notice on a former evening, and upon which much had been unnecessarily said by the Right Hon. Member who was Judg- of the Prerogative Coon, and the Hon. and Learned Member below him. It appeared from the Petition which he held in his hand, that in 1821 a person armed Evans had died, leaving property to the amr•um of 1,7001. to 1 8004 It happened, un fortunately, that he lett two wills, one in favour of his niece, and the other in favour of an adopted daughter. He could not say whether the second will had been made under the impression that the first had been de. stroyed, but so it was that in December, 18'21, a per son named Evans proved under one will, and received probate. The present petitioner, however, conceiving that he, in right of his wife, was the legal heir, insti tuted proceedings in Doctors' Commons to obtain pet.- bate of the will. o.e of the grounds of complaint set forth by the petitioner was, that he had been four and a half years a suitor in that Court at an expense almost incredible, without obtaining any redress. And here he begged leave to point out the vicious practice of that Court; he used the term vicion‘, because he felt that the practice of any Court ought to be so desig nated where, in suing to recover a sum of 1,8001. a sum of 2,5001. was expended. Such a Court he held to be a nuisance., which ought to be done away with. It was e'duty of that House, and of his Majesty's Govern ment, to make justice accessible to the most humble individual in the community. Mr. Peddle stared in his petition, th4t he commenced proceedings in 1821, and that in 1824 judgment was given against him, and in favour of his opponent, but without costs, which showed that there existed some doubt as to the legality of that opponent's claim. So strongly was this feeling impressed ,upon his proctiirs, Mr. Toiler and Son„ that the elder Mr. Toler told petitioner that he was dessati,fied with the judgment proniiunced, which he consideied cor rupt, and recommended the petitioner to appeal to the High Court of Delegates, who would, he had no doubt, set it aside ; and so strongly was he impressed s.ith this opinion, that he de:ermined, in the even: of failure, to charge merely the bare expenses of the proceeding, which he stated would not amount to more than 2001.-.1. This course the petitioner adopted, under the impression that it would require but a short time decide the appeal. The proceeding commenced in July, 1824, and in 1826 the Cow t of Delegates confirmed the judgment of the Prerogative Conn, but without costs, which again created an impression that the decision was bad. In the following September a Bill was sent in by a Gen.. dense% who had been described by his Honourable and Learned Friend below him as a petty-fogging attorney, a person who had been guilty of perjury and attempted extortion. Now, he would state that he had, from two or three most respectable quarters, received lot , rma. tion respecting that Gentleman's character, and he f 'unJ it to be unblemished. One communication which he had received mentioned that Mr. Walker, the actor. trey in question, had received from the City of Bristol A piece r f plate, for having struck off the Rolls an. ata torney who was said to be a nuisance there. Since then lie had received a letter from a Gent!eman in Doctors Commons, describing Mr. Smith to be a most .respectable man. Mr. Toiler sent to plaintiff a bill amounting to p7l. 19s. for the first expenses, and 3841. as the expense of the appeal—making a total of 10721. The other parties paid upwards of 16001. expenses ; so that, if the decision remained unchanged, they would have only 1501. or 2001. remaining. It appeared by the proceedings that his Hon. and Learned Friend (Dr.. Lushington) had, in the first instance, been retained by Mr. Peddle, the petitioner; but it ssu found that he was subsequently retained by the opposite party; and he found amongst the charges of expense a most extra ordinary item—the adverse attorney having refused to give up the papers, the matter was referred to Dr. Ar. mild, and the expenses of that reference were charged by Mr. Toiler. This, he conceived, was sufficient to show that his Hon. and Learned Friend (Dr. Lushingron) was not free from the abuses of that Court, any mate than the Hon. and Learned Gent. who presided in it a The proceedings in the Court of Delegates having gone by, next came the settlement of accounts. Mr. Peddle ap. plied to I. Toiler for an explanation of some of the items, which application was refused. He then applied to the Registrar of the Court, Mr. Dynely, and stated that be was not present, and did not know what ex penses were incurred; he therefore prayed to allow his attorney to attend the taxing of costs. The Regi tray returned for answer, that no such attendance could be allowed. The Petitioner then prayed, by affidavit, that his solicitor might be allowed to attend, but the appii • cation was refused. Another. application was made to the Court, in which were the statemeots of Mr. Toiler, as to the decision of the Court, but the Coort refused to .receive the affidavits, and only asked Mr. Toiler if the allegations were true? Mr. Toiler replied in the nega tive, 904 Ore Court rested satisfied with his simple as, section, in opposition to the oaths of three individuals. The Petitioner consequently came up to town, attpaded • bi O lit MI
