The terms upon which this project is to be carried into effect, are thus stated :—For every hundred pounds, four per cents. the present holder is to receive one hundred pounds in the three and a-half per cents. not liable to be reduced till 1840—that is, for ten years ; or seventy pounds, five per rent. Stock, for every hundred pounds of new four per rents. not to be redeemed till 1873—that is, for forty-three years. The latter arrangement is in fact the proposal of Mr. BARING, which the Courier lately ridiculed as " in compatible with the very nature of a public debt—namely, that these converted four per cents. shall not be liable to redemption for three or four generations to come.".—To this measure of the Government, we are decidedly op posed ; not merely as involving a breach of the national faith, but as depriving the national creditor of the advan tages of his fair contract at a time when no effort has been made, and no disposition indicated, to reduce the enormous incomes which pensioners and sinecurists, who have never contributed to the necessities of the State, drain from the puljlic purse. We have not leisure this day to enter more fully into the subject ; but we shall resume its con sideration to-morrow ; and in the mean time, we cannot do better than refer to the exposure of some facts con nected with the Pension List, which appeared in the Letter of our Correspondent PoLt.to, in the STAR of Monday evening. —Before the public creditor was thus subjected to an invidious 'spoliation, the Government should, at least, have had the justice to have adopted a system of reduction which would come recommended to the Country by its impartiality and fairness.—ln the words of the Marquis of BL AN DFORD, upon Mr. E. I)s.- v utt PORT'S motion, " We should abolish all sinecures, and cut down pay, salaries, and pensions, to the lowest uossible level." French Papers of Monday and Tuesday, have been received this day by express. The Constitutionnel men tions a report, that four Ministers, Messrs. CHABROL, D'HAUSSEZ, COURVOISIZR, and MONTREL, had re signed ; in which case it was presumed, M. DUDON would have the portfolio of Finance; M. GUERNON RAN V ILLE, the Ministry of Justice; M. FERDINAND • BEILTHIER, the Marine; M. BERRTER, Public In struction ; and M. PET RON NET, the Interior. It adds, that thirty new Prefects will be taken on the extreme right.—A letter from Malta, dated March 3, says, that admiral MA LcoLad was in that port with a part of the British squadron, and that five Russian line-of-battits • five Russian frigates, with three Russian Admi rals, rere also in the port on their way to the Baltic. It is certain that M. Boy amoitT Will command the active operations against Algiers.—The Quotidienne - says, " Since the year 1814, no levee has been so attended - to adopt." A numerous meeting of the Paris Electors was held on the same day, when it was resolved that a grind dinner should be given to the Deputies of the Department of the Seine, and that a medal should be struck in honour of the 221 Members who voted fur the address to the KING, and proclaimed the necessity of concord amongst the three branches of the State. In the event of the Director of the Mint refusing to execute this medal, it will be struck at Brussels. The debate to which Mr. Enw Ann DAVENPORT'S motion on " the State of the Country," gave rise, ter minated last night, after a discussion that, in point of duration, rather than in the promise of any beneficial or satisfactory result, is almost without a precedent in the recent annals of Parliament. However disappointed, humbled, or mortified we might feel, under other circum stances, by the overwhelming majority—of something Tess than three to one—which has thus, for a season, defeated the just and rational expectation of the people ; yet there is one circumstance, to which we shall presently advert, which, in itself, is more than sufficient to recon- cile us to a decision which nothing but the manly per severance of the proposer and advocates of the motion could have averted, or even rendered desirable. Before we enter further into the consideration of this mo- mentous subject, we must claim the attention of our readers to the peculiar nature of Mr. DAVENPORT'S proposition, which to us appears so palpable and direct in its object, and so simple and uninvolved in the develop- ment of its purposes, that—if we had not marked the subtlety and artifice with which its fair-spoken opponents secured its defeat, by prolonging the debate till it be- came " as tedious as a twice-told tale," and was ren- tiered formidable as an impediment to all other public business,—we should scarcely have supposed it possible, that so intelligible and straightforward a motion could have engrossed the attention of a grave Legislative As sembly for four hours, instead of FOUR NIG H TS. Taken abstractedly, then, Mr. DA VEN PORT'S proposition was to this effect : that " All the Petitions sent to that House by various parties, and complaining of distress, be referred to a Committee of the whole House, with a view of inquiring into that distress, and its causes ; and to report the re medies." Such a resolution, even if adopted to its fullest extent, imposed no responsibility upon Parliament, to which they were not previously bound by the provisions of the Constitution ;—it exacted no pledge fort the members of any party as to the course which might ulti mately be deemed expedient ; —it neither suggested, nor implied, any reprehension of the measures of adminis• tration ; it betrayed no " want of confidence in the in tentions of Government ;"—it compromised no principle of legislation involved no prerogative of the state ; and it held out no unwarrantable hope to the country. " The question at issue was"—as Mr. DAVEN PORT ob served, last night, in his reply, " whether the petitions complaining of the unexampled distress of the country, pe titions coming from every large town, and from most of the counties in England, were to be listened to or not ?" It did indeed suggest, and very properly, that such pe titions—to which the calamitous condition of the people has at this moment attached an interest and an importance that render all other topics of parlia mentary discussion comparatively trifling—should be received in a manner more consonant to the wishes, and more calculated to alleviate the wants, of the petitioners, than the ordinary routine which has hitherto prevailed. It prayed—rather than insisted—that such petitions should no longer be laid upon the table of the Honourable House, as a mere matter of form ; but should be taken into the calm, deliberate, and mature consideration of a Committee composed—not of a few members capriciously chosen from the many—but of the whole House. It called upon the Representatives of the people to manifest, by something more than vain pro. fusions, their sympathy in the sufferings of their consti tuents ; their regard for the welfare and happiness of the country. It demanded—not the performance of any in. compatible duty, or the unjustifiable intervention of the third estate of the realm, in the redress of public grievances—but an inquiry into the causes of that dis tress which now almost desolates the land, and the con templation of such remedies as an investigation so con ducted might suggest, and as the wisdom, prudence, and, justice of Parliament might sanction, and recommend to the adoption of His Majesty's Government. • And yet such a proposition—which, as we have before remarked, is at once palpable and direct in its object, and simple and uninvolved in the development of its purposes ; and which must appear to all men, unobjectionably tem perate in its language and precise in its terms—has been rejected by the votes of Two HUN DRED and TWENTY-71V E. Members of the House of Commons— opposed to RIGIITY-ERV EN ! It will be in vain for those who have thus consigned the people to the hopeless en durance of their miseries for an indefinite period, to ex tenuate their insensibility to those miseries, by urging the objections which presented themselves to the success of such a measure, in the disparity of sentiment, or the variance of those views of political economy by which its advocates professed to be influenced. No discrepance of opinion in the supporters of a motion for obtaining an inquiry into the state of the nation, can justify its rejec tion. Every member by whom it was supported may entertain a different notion upon the means of remedying the evil ; but there cannot be two unbiassed opinions upon the necessity which calls for that inquiry. In a Committee of the whole House, the prejudices of indivi duals might perhaps occasion a more protracted consi deration of the question; but they could neither affect the general conduct of the Committee, or obstruct the attainment of objects so desirable, as the impartial in vestigation of the causes of the present distress ; the con ' remedies as might be applicable to the country ; and the adoption of we should find that solace in the close of Mr. DAV C - PO Wee reply ; when, finding his endeavours obstructed, rather than advanced, by the cavilling objections of those upon whose unqualified support lie had a right to calcu late, he determined to " withdraw" that part of his proposition " which appeared most objectionable to the Honourable Members opposed to it,"—and consented to an amendment for a Select Committee. Nothing—we repeat it—but the manly perseverance of the proposer and advocates of such a motion, could either have averted its defeat, or rendered its success desirable. Half measures will no longer avail ; and Select Committees seem, not only to have lost all hold upon popular estimation, but to be altogether inadequate to the discharge of duties so important and so momentous as the country now requires at the hands of her Legislators. And when we find the individual to whom the people were indebted for so pa triotic an effort, abandoning the proposition upon whi. h their expectations rested, we are bound to conclude that the object for which he so nobly contended, was either utterly unattainable, or even if conceded, would yet be so clogged with difficulties, or so frittered away by the inju rious interference of over-officious friends—the reck- lessness of lukewarm partisans —or the mischievous meddhng of Ministerial Marplots, that it would fall far short of the salutary end which he had proposed to his labours; or would eventually prove like the " paltering in a double sense" of those '•juggling fiends" " Who keep the word of promise to the ear, But break it to the hope." We have already devoted so much space to the debates of last night, and to the comments which the most im portant feature of Parliamentary discussion—the state of the nation—called for ; that wo must for a day or two defer our notice of the speeches delivered by Lord A BEn- DF.EN and His Grace the Dcaa, in reply to the resolu tions proposed by the Marquis of CLAY RICA RDE, and in defence of that conduct towards the wretched Portu guese emigrants, which every body else, we believe, holds to be utterly indefensible. In resuming this subject, we shall also have occasion to notice the official publication entitled " E.rpose des Druits de sa MajesN Tres Fidele Dona Maria 11. et de la Question Portugais", which must be regarded as the manifesto of the Regency appointed by DON P D go, and acting in the name of the young QUEEN.

DF:STROTERI Or THEIR OWN RETUTATIOW....3IERCIER, in his History of the French lieetilution, says, " The Cardinal de LOIHIRIE was made Prime Minister. The whole of his adminis. tration was employed in ruining his own reputation." To the notoriety of so suicidal an °Vence against a good name, many men in the ordinary ranks of life may make as full *claim; but it seems to have been reserved for our country, and for our days, to furnish, in the Mini.trrial circles, a parallel to the ease of the Cardinal de homani E. We have even now before us the lamentable evidence of similar infatuation, in the appointment of " the Great Captain of the Age" to the station of Prime Illinister ; and of him it may with strict truth be affirmed, that " the whole of his ad. ministration was employed In the ruin of his tsputation." But there the parallel ends. The appropriation or seizure of any pos. sessions of the State or of the Church, as the " recompense of his uselessness" we believe never entered into the contemplation of our " great man"—whose " most easily besetting sin" has been the wilful destruction of the proudest fame that ever a soldier acquired, or an incapable and headstrong Minister sacrificed to his ambition and his obstinacy. ROYAL. DARDYI92I FORTY YEARS 4100.—Mmictea, in the same work, lets us into one of the personal whims of the present King of France, which recent circumstances may probably induce that Monarch to turn to some account. His Majesty, then Mon. sieur the Count n'Airrots, was so particular in the decoration of his person, that even his inexpressibles—but we must be more precise in the term—his lenther.breeches became humus. They were so precisely fashioned, and made to adhere so closely to his limbs, that in order to get into them, his Royal Highness was lifted into the air by four powerful lackeys, who let Lim fall into the gar. ment, so that it should hate no plait ; and thus he remained cased up during the day, and was unbreeched at night by raising him in the same manner, but with greater force. Now that the Royal spirit seems "in arms and eager for the fray," such leather breeches would be invaluable to him, should the KING (which Heaven torefend make up his mind to put his menace into effect, and prove that he would tadter " loonier d eltsrai qwe loonier en chartne." Such a garment might save him from the " untoward event" which betel the Duke n'Arroovutme, in his immortal Spanish Campaign, and which he described in a letter to Madame in the following terms :—"J'ai le posterieur ligerement dos stag'." _ _ _ Otoatous Costri.oufwT.—When Lord BOLINGBROKE was asked " How many faults the great D.;ke of MARLBOROUGH had ?" be calmly replied : " He was truly so great a man, he had forgot them all."—llappy were it for England, if the mom of mis rule into which her Modem Hero has suffered himself to be be. trayed, could all be forgotten in the recollection of his greatness !

Bishops neglecting to conform to this advice to be excommunicated." We are glad to find that Mr. BtLcars o AM, whose refutation of the calumnies so invidiously heaped upon him, we have recently noticed, has adopted the praise worthy determination of personally vindicating his cha • meter from such aspersions, by the gratuitous delivery of a public Lecture, on the policy of Great Britain with re spect to her future commercial intercourse with India. The Lecture. wo understand, will be given at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, Strand, and is to commence at seven o'clock this evening. OMINOUS DAYS.—II is worthy of observation that some of the most important occurrences, that may be said to have particularly marked the destiny of Louts XVI. and to have precipitated the French Revolution, took place on the twenty-first day of the months in which they severally happened.—Loves XVI was mar ried to MARIE ANTOINETTE on the 21st of April, 1770; and at the fite given in commemoration of that event, on the 21st June following, numbers of the populace were trampled to death. On the 21st J une,l792,the king escaped from Varennes. On the 21st of September, Royalty was abolished in France; and on ti.e 21st of January, 1793, Louts XVI. was decapitated.—One day more, and the peremptory mandate by which the present King,C lIAKLLS X. prorogued the Chambers, would have been promul gated on the 21st of March.
