. I n that impressment was justified by the • common tor , Mr. Justice Foster and Lord Kenyon were of the same opinion, and that, he thought, was a clear , c;15 01 why it should not be departed from. It was t „ t tik of keeping up an establishment of sailors shore: it required practice to re n d er t h em use f.n ut. At e x hieaking out of a war t h e sea wa, ' covere d w ee merchantmen. and the men of war had no thing t o do 'inn to take the sail o r s out o f t h em, and t h e y were im-oediately fitted for service: and it should be ree ellected that this was do ne f or the benefit of co mmerce, as the men of war immediately took charge o f the mmehantmen. Ile ought to state to the !louse t hat them was no i3,pressment during peace, and that it seas only during war that the practice was adopted. Toe Honourable Member had instanced America as an (amp l e which this country ought to follow. It was a eery different thing to man five or six frigates, to manning such a naval force as England was obliged to keep up. Ttie sa ilors, notwithstanding the repre,entation of the Honourable Member for Aberdeen, evinced such a pre ference to set se on board men of war, that the mer eherathen found great difficulty, on foreign stations, in k ee ping a sufficient number of seamen to navigate the , hip, SO great was the anxiety of the sailors to volun tcer on board a King's ship ; and British Officers had f e lnently occasion to interfere to reptess this desire, a „ j co direct that volunteers should not be received, if any detriment was likely to ensue to the merchantmen. lie had no hesitation to say, that the English sailor was eater off than any other etas of people in his station, ;l ad be s, as therefore convinced that all new plans were oa:s• calculated to do mischief, and be on that account $ llOll4l oppose the motion. Next, with regard t r the diiciplin: necessary. to be preserved; it was requisite t ;„ t d ie power of punishment should be left with the c l e a in in the Sit:ne way as it was at present, as, where t e-, : or :ix bundled men were commanded by nine or iti, Oili:ers, it was sometimes necessary to strike ter roe i : ;:a the soli actory, in order to muse obedience and Sq boidination. Eves y Officer in the Navy was using his en deavours to repress punishment, but the taking the nia:ter up in the way it had been was calculated to pie iudice those endeavours. The Admisalty was every to- emplojed improving the condition of the Navy, their exertions would effect more good than the ll000niab:e Ic-tuber's speeches. The sailor now, after ; , ; ,crvice of twenty Tears, was entitled to what was (Ailed the long sets ice pension, and was privileged to ti.intand his discharge whenever he pleased—((•hccrs). Sir 1. COP: IN said, he should not have spoken on 1:,15 subject if Cie Hon. Member for Aberdeen had not ailed she navy dig u white negroes"—(A laugh.) The moment an impressed man was brought on board ship there was no difference between hint and a volun tar, : in d mine vo:unteers ran front ships of war ih:in re,sed men. He could enumerate a number of eminent f ei.sons in the navy who had been pressed men. There. was old Admiral Bowater, be was a white slave! These vas Admiral Mitchell, who was first Lieutenant in the Freeiroyent, in the action smith the Pegase, lie was a v. Lee slave I There was Sir Thomas Trowbt idge, whom ad hid heard of, he was a white slave! There was Cap ra,' Butterfield, who was impressed in 1793, and was a a'tam in 1798. There was Captain Cook, one of the arst of navigators, he was another, and there were, he hal no doubt, 20,000 of these white slaves! If the men ue:e not otherwise to be had, it was necessary to press trees, and if they had a good bellyful of victuals, coats their backs, and mes!icine if they were sick, they could Ten be called sl lye.. Mr. 11011 HOUSE said, that the gallant Admiral op posite (Sir G. Cockburn) had assumed rather a high tone; but he was nut aware of what he had ever done and lie was pretty well versed in the naval his tory of us-dern digs. But he knew what his Honour able Friend bad done ashore, and the whole country was ready to acknow ledge his eke; tions—(iear, hear).— Notwithstanding all that the gallant Admiral had as serted. he was nt.t at all shaken by his arguments, nor had any refutation been given to the powerful statement of his I immutable Friend. It was the opinion among Naval Officers that unless something was done before the neat war, it would be impossible to carry impress ment into effect at all. He knew that during the late war, many citizens of Westmin•tet never went out un less arme.l with knives. which they certainly would have used agaii:st pi ess-gangs, as they never would have sniffled their rights as Citizens 10 be infiir on He did nit cate for the opinions of Judge oster, Judge Mankfield, and Judge Kenyon, as he did not think that the liberties of the subject were to be trifled away by judicial opinions. It was ridiculous to say that 110,000 men could not be raised out of a population of 18 or 19 vullions, without having recourse to coercive measures. He would ask, were the Biitish seamen satisfied with this system ? Was there no discontent among them on this subject? Me knew that there was. Toe gallant Admiral had alluded to the Captain of a merchantman, who had adoptel flogging in his ship. He (Mr. Hob l'ouse) called on the gallant Admiral to mention the rime of that person, which, from a mistaken motive of delicacy, he had concealed, in order that it might be known and reprobated (tom one end of the empire to the alter. Dr G. COCKBURN explained, and said:that he did not use the words imputed to him by the lion. Gentleman. Ile merely reasoneu on the necessity of procuring sailors at a moment's warn ing in a time cat war. Captain GORDON said, that in many cases it would be impos rible to man the navy unless by impressment. He would readily a:low that it was only justibed by necessity, and ought to be used v its much caution. He entreated the House to pause before they deprived the navy of its privileges, without which it would become ntsigaific.mt to foreign Powers and degrading to this country. 31e.W.SMITH thought with the Hon.Olßeer (Sir G.Coekburn), et. t it would he dangerous to adopt instantaneously the plan sug gested by the Member for Aberdeen, but be thought that, at all events, an inquiry into the subject should take place. It appeared tr• hitn that no evil could arise fronia change in the system, but that rases food might be expected from it. Sir C. CLISIIK perfectly agreed that impressment was not to be 5• mined to unless in cases of emergency; and be knew it was never o, •re ton when necessity warranted it, because every Officer would re (lei taking with hint men who served voluntarily to those who , re forced to act. 3lr. NV A RILE objected to the assertion of an Hon. 31ember, !!tat those connected with the prmession were alone capable of form ai,: opinions on the subject. He did not wish to give a silent'vute Oh this important subject. Sit E. HA RVEY knew, that In nineteen cases out of twenty, et.: system of impressment had formed the greatest safeguard to the commercial interest's. :air It. W ILSOS: said, that he would give his vote fur the mo -15- of his Honoutable Friend, because he was convinced that the traidt navy would be more effectually manned without impress ment. He thought it opposed to all the best rrinciples of liberty. HeLil trot believe that in time of war there would be a grater scarci:y of seamen than during a time of peace. Air. 11L731E replied. Strargers w!:re then ordered to withdraw, and the Bosse di vided, w hen the riunbers appeared, For tile motion, Z,S Against it, 108 I Mairacitls 70 E. TUT. CATHOLIC ASSOCIATIOIL .Mr. BROWNLOW then rose to move that the Peti um against the Catholic Aklii"iatipa be referred to the Irish Committee. .In making this proposition, the Hon. Member briefly recapitulated the argnnients which he had used on a former night, and called upon the House to put a stop to the proceedings of that Association, by declaring that they had infringed the law ; or if it were found that this had not been done, to pass a new law for putting it down. Mr. H. TWISS seconded the Motion. He warned the Catholics to anticipate the Government in putting down this inauspicious plan of banding together. Mr. Secretary CANNING thought himself called upon to answer the call which the Honourable Member (Mr. Utownlow) had made on the House. He was not prepared to say whether any steps were necessarf,,, of the nature alluded to. He considered that the proceed ings of this Association were so nearly balanced, le gality and illegality, that although they could Ain call for any declaration of the House regarding tWe'in, yet they constituted a case which ought to be watched. He had no desire to shrink from the responsibility which this course imposed on him. As a Minister of the Crown he would not call upon Parliament to be guilty of the indiscretion of passing a new law, until it was seen whether the Association might not exhaust itself without coming to extremity, or at least whether its proceedings were such as to warrant the passing of a new law. Sir J. NEWPORT thought, if this Petition were sent to the Committee, the petitions from certain parishes in the county of Westmeath, and the freeholders in the county of Cavan, against Orange Associations, ought also to go before them at the same time. He then lead a paper descriptive of the proceedings of an Orange Association at the commencement of the present Session of Parliament, affecting to assume all the functions o f that House, and establishing a system of delegation throughout Ireland, with Committee of Finance, 6re. This meeting was attended by the Grand Treasurer and Deputy of Ireland, Sir A. 13. King and Sir 11. Lees. Ile proceeded to read some of their Resolotions, on which he proposed to ground the mo:ion he intended to make. Mr. Secretary PEEL was in favour of the motion. He thought the Petition ought to be efei red to the Committee as a matter of course. Assenting to the Motion fur telerring the Petition to the Cominit:ee, he should not consider himself relieved from any respon sibility; but when any act occurred which might render it necessary, he should consider it to be his duty to sub ject the Association to the steady march of the law.— This he should do in every case where the law was in fringed, whether the parties sr cite Catholics or Orange. men. Ile avowed himself an enemy to all secret and affiiiated Societies, and from his heart he wished the Orange Associations were at an end. The formation of such societies formed a precedent for the establish ment of others, whose principles were different. True loyalty might find other ways of spewing itself; and lie believed the Government sufficiently powerful to i protect the loyal without the aid of such Associations. He thought it would be premature now to give an opi nion on the character of the Catholic Association. Mr. S. RICE spoke against Associations, and announced it to be his intention to vote for the motion of the Honourable Gen tleman, and also for that of the Right Honourable B.ronet. Sir F. BLAKE called on the Honourable Member for Armagh to use his influence, as he had avowed himself to be an Orangeman, to put down Orange Associations. There was an apparent change in the language of the members of that Association lately, but he doubted their sincerity, remembering the words of the Poet— " A man convinced against his will, " Is of the same opinion still !" Mr. DAWSON thought it right to say, that he believed the im putations thrown out against the Orangemen of Ireland were unfounded and unjust. They wished their conduct to be inquired into, and be was confident that they would come out of any inquiry that might be instituted with honour. He should vote for the motion. The motion was agreed to. Sir J. NEWPORT then loosed that the petitions respecting the Orange Societies should he rt ferred to the same Committee. The motion was agreed to. The Orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House ad at Tunes ()Thom The following is the Petition of the Merchants of Lon. don in faibe;ur of the independence of the new States of _ South America:— To tbs Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom, in Par• !lament assembled. The Petition of the undersigned Merchants of the City of London, Shesiettli, That your Petitioners are engaged in trade with the countries in America formerly under the dominion of Spain. That the entire extinction of Spanish authority in the greater part of that Continent, and the encouragement by the Government at home, induced your Petitioners to embark in that extensive com merce, with full confidence that it would receive the most complete protection, and ultimately prove must beneficial to themselves and the country at large. The measures adopted by Government most decisively demonstrated the anxiety to acquire and secure this in tercourse. In the Session of 1823, an Act of Parliament was passed, cap. 43, authorizing the importation of goods the growth, produc tion, and manufacture of " any country or place in America, being or having been a part of the dominions of the King of Spain," either in British ships, or in ships the build of those countries, In the folluwing year, Consuls were appointed to proceed to the ports thereof, and subsequently there has been made public the declara tion of his Majesty's Government, that in its opinion " the recogni tion of such of the new States as have established, de facto, their se parate political existence, cannot be much longer delayed." Your Petitioners further humbly represent, that many millions of capital have already been embarked In this trade; and large com- ' mercial establishments have been formed, both us South America' and at home; and that past experience affords the strongest ground for believing that this commercial intercourse will admit of great extension, the reciprocal demand for the productions of the respect tive countries being constantly increasing. Your Petitioners consequently find themselves greatly embarrassed by those countries remaining" without any recognized political exist ence." Not a week passes but they are assailed with rumours of the most alarming kind, involving their proceedings in doubt, hesitation, 1 1 [ mid distraction ; and grievously destructive of that confidence •s 0 essential to the success of all commercial undertakings. Tour Honourable House must be well aware that no comma's dal intercourse can be permanently carried an with security and advantage to those concerned, if it is rendered liable to fluctuation by constant alarms of political changes, necessarily producing sudden and excessive alterations in the value of the property embarked. That your Petitioners are enabled to state, and to prove unequivo cally to your Honourable House, that in the several States of Co lombia, Buenos Ayres, and Chili, there does not remain the smallest vestige of Spanish dominion in any shape, each State enjoying its own separate and independent Government, free from all interfer ence of a hostile force. That the Revolution which has produced this alteration in the poli tical condition of these countries, has now been in progress 15 years. In Buenos Ayres, there has not been a Spanish soldier in hostility for eight years ; in Chili there has been none for four years ; and in Columbia, the third Annual Constitutional Congress is now sitting. In none of these States does there exist any party or persons in pos session of power or authority, excepting the constituted Executive Governnietit. Your Petitioners, therefore, humbly submit that these States have established deflau their separate political existence, and are, accord ing to the practice of nations in former instances, entitled to be re cognized as independent Governments; hut they would not have presumed to have addressed your Honourable House on a question of this nature, if the continued delay in recognizing this political existence did not pi oduce the most detrimental consequences to the commercial trans..ctions in which they are concerned. Your Petitioner, therefore, most humbly pray that your Honour able House will take this question into its serious consideration, and adopt suclt measures as to its wisdom may seem fit, for promoting the illllllCtliiite recognition 01 the independence of such cat the States of South Atnetic.t as have, de facto, established the same. And your reti.iuners, as in duty hound, will ever pray, Sec.

THE F YENNING STA It LONDON . . FRIDAY, JUNE•' 11, 1824. Sr. BARNA/BAS.—Holiday at the Bank. THE FUNDS. CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. This is a Holiday at the Bank, Stock Exchange, and the Foreign Market; in consequence of which, most of the Brokers have as sembled on 'Change, and Consols have been done at 256 No . the Account, bur very little is doing.—Some trifling business has been done nn 'Change in Foreign Securities—Old Spanish 206, Mexican &tip 2, French Scrip 17, Colombian 16 to Many conjectures are afloat as to the probable suc cessor of M. de CHATEAUBRIAND, amongst others, the Duke de Ciszas has been named. Several circum stances militate in favour of this idea, and others seem to oppose an insurmountable barrier. We shall take a review of the arguments on both sides, from which our Readers will draw their own conclusions—but first of . M. de VILLELE, and M. de CIIIATEA ÜBIIIAND. M. de Vit.t.aut's famous article of the 25th Decem ber, 1822, in the Journal des Debnts, against a war with Spain, sowed the first seeds of dissen s ion between him and M. de CIIATEAUBRIAND. The policy of M. de CHATEAUBRIAND having tiiumphed in the Cabinet, there can be little doubt that M. de VILLELE would have been removed, had not his splendid talents and great influence rendered hint difficult to be replaced. A coolness subsisted between the two Ministers, which subsequent events tended to increase. Pozzo DI BORGO recommended to his master to send M. de CHATEAU. BRIAND the decoration of St. Andrew, for his zeal in the Spanish war, while the Pi eLident of the Council of Mi nisters was forgotten. Few men attach less importance to titles and decorations than M. de VILLELE; but this exclusive mark of favour to a colleague was too glaring to excite friendly feelings towards either the donor or acceptor so that it was not to be wondered that, when an opportunity offered, one of the two would re tire from the MiniAry. The question whether M. de CAZES will re-enter the Ministry or not involves a variety of considerations of high political importance, and which may be said to counterbalance each other. M. de CAZES, when Mi nister, wished to have M. de VILLELE for a colleague, which the latter declined, from his engagements with his party, rather than from any unwillingness on his own part, for he well knew that M. de CAZES entertained a high respect for him, and duly appreciated his talents., But M. de VILLELE is Premier Minister, and so was M. de CAZES, and one of them must submit to play second fiddle; it cannot be expected that M. de VILLELE would resign the seat of honour to another, and it is not certain that M. de CAZES will accept the second rank, though we are inclined to believe that if a line of policy were agreed on consonant to his feelings, his pride w•uld yield to his patriotism, and he would act with M. de VILLELE ; hut there Would be too many jatring ejements in the Ministry if only this change were ef fected. The Duke de CAZES is the great advocate of the Charter, and he could not see it invaded by hi, colic:1;4 ues in silence. Again, though the Duke de CAZES is still a favourite with theKING, it is known that the Count d'Anrots and the Duchess d'ANGOULEME entertain less favourable sentiments towards him, and in the pre sent state of affairs, and the KING'S health, their influ ence would alone suffice to prevent his admission. Yet perhaps all these adverse considerations may be over- { , ruled in considetation of a fact which none we igno rant of, the Duke de CAZES has the strongest party of any person in France. He had been, successively, Pre fect of Police, Minister of Police, Minister of the Inte rior, and Prime Minister ; so that his influence ex tended its ramifications through every &pa: tment of the State—all wete submitted to his controul— many received signal favours at his hands, and after his disgrace he received what was very uncommon in France, testimonies of interest and friendship as seams and as numerous as another would have on entering office. His influence in the Chamber of Peers is immense; above one hundred owe to him the honour they enjoy ; to many he offered the Peerage in exchange for exile, and it cannot be doubted that a great number would vote with him from gratitude, even it they slightly differed in opinion with him. His in f ience would, therefore, add singular strength to the Ministry of M. de VILLELE. and they would never have to fear being kit in a minority. In a preceding column we hive inscrie.i .1 copy of the Petition c;1 the Merchants of L ond.,n in favour of recog nizing the independent States of South America, which will, we understand, be presented to the Home of Com mons this evening, when it is not improbable that something may transpire, as to the more immediate views of our Government. The accounts from South America are so contradictory, that we wait with some degree of impatience for the Reports of the British Commissioners that have been sent out to the several States. With regard to Colombia, it is forever lost to Spain, and the same may perhaps be said of Chili, Peru, and Mexico, although it does appear that in the two latter States the Governments are not so firmly established, or the tranquillity perfoctly secured. We are far, however, from thinking that ,Spain, with a feeble Government and au empty treasury, can materially retard their independence, however much it may be thwauted by internal dissensions.—With regard to Mexico, unless we knew more of Iron- BIDE'S views than he has chosen to disclose, it is difficult to judge what may be the effect of his mission; but as he is a mere adventurer, he goes, probably, less with a settled plan than with the view of availing him self of any circumstances that may be most likely to turn to his own aggrandisement, particularly as his re turn is in violation of a solemn agreement into which he had entered. . ~'+~; ~ The last letters from Rio Janeiro contain little infor mation, with the exception that the arrangement made between Lord COCHRANE and the Government was, that a certain sum should be paid in lieu of prize. money, to be distributed among the officers and sailors of the fleet, and the side of the captured vessels ivas not proceeded in. Tranquillity prevailed, and nothing new had occurred in politici. The Theatre, which had been burnt on the evening of the Esreynoa visiting it, hid ben ordered to be rebuilt. Trade was much depressed. The French Paper;7Trz,,, and the Etoile of Wednesday have been received, but they contain ao in telligence of importance; the principal topic is the re cent change in the French Ministry, which does not appear to have been anticipated by the Journalists, and is of course very differently spoken of by them. The French Ministry, since the dismissal of M. de CHA• TEA ITBRIAND, has made a sacrifice to popularity, by withdrawing the project of law for creating the new crime of sacrilege, which had passed the Chamber of Peers, and which was expected to meet with great op position in that of the Deputies. The discussion on the Bill for the septenniality of the Chamber ended on ' Monday. The Reporter was to make his reply on the following sitting. A report prevailed in the City this morning, that Lord COCHRANE has sailed to assist the Chilians, but it is more likely he is gone after the Spanish ship Asia, of 64 guns, lately arrived in that quarter. 71E ARMY.

William Cochrane was indicted fcr publishing a number of 2'4'r Republican, containing a most blasphemous and impious libel, of and concerning our holy religion. 'lle prisoner was defended bir Jr. French. the Barrister, and declined addressing the Jury. To follow that Gentleman in his speech would be merely giving a re petition, in effect, of the opinions he had avowed on former occa sions, and we therefore abstain from doing F u. The prisoner was found Guilty. James C'la.•ke, who was tried yesterday, was sentenced to three years imprisonment. It is a melancholy fact,that several persons have arrived in town, for the purpose of obtaining an engagement under Carlile, to retail bis works. BOIV-STIIE -IBIS DAY. Mrs. Brookes, the actress, who had yesterday been mistaken for the person who had unlawfully pl• Aged certain property at Messrs. Maywood and Lawrence's, Drury-lane, of which there is an ac count in wir fourth page, attended with a number of friends to clear her character. . . - - Mr. Lawrence was in attendance, and stated that she was net the person who had plrdged the articles. Mr. Turner, to whom no blame can certainly attach beyond his labouring under a mistake, could not, however, bring his mind to believe that she was not the person, from the strong similarity be tween them. It is hardly necessary to say, that Mrs. Brookes has borne a most unblemished character. Yesterday, the Duchess of GLOUCESTER, the Princess Aucusva, and the Princess SOPHIA, visited the Kum. Yesterday, the Duke of WELLINGTON had an audi ence of his MAJESTY. The LORD LIEUTENANT OF IRELAND iS confined to , his apartments at the Vice-regal Lodge, in consequence of a cold. In consequence of a cold caught at Epsom Races, Mrs. MERCANDOTTI BALL has been dangerously indisposed with infLimmatory sore throat. Owing to the unfavourable appearance of the weather, Mr. GRAHAM'S ascent, fixed for this day, has been postponed. We are happy to observe, that the long-promised Novel- 1 ' WILIIELX MEISTER'S ArrazNxicessur," by Goethe, o the intellectual King of Europe," as his countrymen consider hint, has at last appeared in its English dress. Though differing somewhat from the Germans in our estimate of Goethe, yet, from our know ledge of the present Wot k, we may safely anticipate, that it will become a favourite in this country, The most eminent CoPtinental Writers all agree, that it stands unrivalled for its vigorous display of original genius, in unfolding the principles of human nature, and in graphic description of human character. The New Review, the Critical Gazette, is now on sale, and the Proprietors are requited, by a continually increasing de mand, for their liberality in giving away 5000 copies.
