IRE LIVERPOOL SERVICE OF PLATE, PIUSJIIIID SO OE RIGHT HONOURABLE WILLIAM HUSKISSON. Tut Gentlemen acting as the Committee for presenting this : o:ndid testimonial from the town of Liverpool to Mr. Hounslow, r, Jay, inspected the same, at those eminent silversmiths, Mann. GOURDS, in Panton-street, near the Haymarket, who were the w lnufacturers. The most remarkable piece is that which bears the 6l'qwing inscription The Service or Plate Of which this Ca.ndelabruna is a part, Was presented to The Right Honourable WILLIAM HUSKISSON By a numero►ts Body Of the Mercha►►ts, Freemen, and Inhabitants of LIVLSIPOOL ) As a testimony Of their serise of the benefits Derived to the Nation at large, From the enlightened system Of commercial policy Brought forward by him As President of the Board of Trade, And of their gratitude For the seal and ability with which, As a Member for Liverpool, He has watched over the interests of His Constituents. The base is circular, on which the inscription appears in two p!ares, viz. the front and rear: Surmounting the base, rises a group. of Bacchanalian figures, under a canopy of foliage. of peculiar sick ness in sculpture, from which arise the branches forming the ans. ric!obrusts, and it contains eight lights. The whole forms a most F irming and elegant design, and is executed In so masterly a man ner, both as to the beauty and correctness of the human figure, and the fine art of the workman, as to evince the great and decided su periority of the present mode of Manufacturing silver over that of l el preceding age. The ice•pails are of the form of the celebrated Etruscan vases discovered in Herculaneum, but the feet are in design grotesque; they are formed of four dolphins entwined together. The bodies el the vases are ornamented with, water-leaves and shell-work. The tureens and the bottle-stands are admirable specimens of splendour Zchasing, but all the other pieces of plate are so contrived as to b:estd the useful with the agreeable;—indeed, in the whole outline, that idea has never been lost sight of ; and, we may venture to add, tat we never saw taete more judiciously applied. V)e following cortespoildence took place in pre sc::Ling the plate s 6 Livraroot., Frs. 4. " bly MAIL Sea—As Chairman of the Committee,. I have now the honour to- request your acceptance of the service of plate pre crud*, you by this great commercial town. The motives which led to this proof of public feeling are set forth in the inscription, engraved on the centre ornament of the service. • (Here a copy of the in,oription is inserted.] " Notwithstanding the embarrassment and distress which gene ally prevail in trade and manufactures, I am desired by the Com mittee to assure you, that their conviction of the wisdom of the mtssures introduced by you for the removal of conuturcLal re strictions, remains undiminished, sad that they confidently antici pate, from their matured operation, the most beneficial effects to the country at large. " It Is very gratifying to me to have been sekcted by my liberal L:low-townsmen as their organ on this occasion ; and I have only to drat I have the honour to be, my dear Sir. vcry.faithfully yours, " JOHN BOLTON. " To the Right Hon. Wm. Huskisson, &c." FEMILVA ItY 6. " Mt aria Sta—T have this d.iy had the honour to receive, flora a deputation of the Committee of the merchants and inbalat tuts of Liverpool, theletter with which yea. as 'their s Chahipan, Aare been desired to accompany the presentation to me of the ask vl:e of plate, prepared under the direction of the Committee,in coclpliance with the resolutions of the subscribers. I receive with just pride, and acknowledge with the most gratitude, this mark of their approbation. However splendid this munificent testimony of their senti ments, the record of those sentiments, in the inscription upon the plete,veill ever be considered by me as constituting its highest value. ' lu chi,: free counu yr, it is the best recompense of the services of toy nuui, filling a high and responsible situation (be his station is hie, odium Ise, what it may), to find himself supported by the cordial concurrence of those who, by their intelligence, as well as by the habits of their lives, are most competent to form a correct j:Jsmeut, and whose welfare is most immediately concerned in the ✓esult of any important measures which it may be his duty to bring turward iu Parliament. 1 . Valuable as the expression of such concurrence and support mut be at any time, it is doubly grateful to me under the present ' circumstances ; and I hope I may be allowed to add, (without the imputation of vanity,) that the renewed decimation, by the merchants and inhabitants of Liverpool, of their matured and confirmed opinion, is not, under these circumstances, altogether owlets to the public interest. Partial as their kindness to myself west render that opinion in easier titnes,it will hardly be imagined the in times of difficulty, like the present, they would allow a dis position to employ the language of compliment to overbear their nand and ,ancere Conviction. " To such vicissitudes as those which have recently occurred, the commerce of this country has been at aU times liable. They are, perhaps, the inevitable result of activity and enterprise, stimulated by unbounded credit ; and by those perpetually increasing powers Of machinery which ingenuity has created in aid of the natural industry of our population. But, by whatever causes the present stagnation may have been occasioned, and however deeply I lament its pressure (more espe (ldly that portion of it which falls upon my constituents), I am 1 , 24 convinced that it has in no degree been produced or aggravated ly the relaxing of any of those restrictions which Parliament deemed it no longer expedient to retain. " In this conviction I am supported, not exclusively by those vets° generally approve the measures of the Administration, but by other, of the greatest talents and authority, who look to those mea sacs with a leis friendly eye. By this coincidence of opinion, our . . p: went commercial system is (fortunately, as I conceive) withdrawn from the range of those questions which divide the two great poli tical parties of the State upon other points of general policy ; and I cennot but hope, that when confidence shall be again restored (as I oust it soon will be) in pecuniary transactions, the like general sty .e will prevail.,among persons practically engaged in commerce, of the increased facilities and encouragement which the late changes ri calculated to afford to the manfacturing industry and whole t„:l> trade of the country. I cannot conclude without offering to you, my dear Sir, my rust thanks, not only for the flattering terms in which you have upessed yourself personally towards me on this occasion, bet for unwearied kindness, and active assistance which I have expo. *mud from you during the whole course of my connexion with Lierpeol. " I have the honour to be, my dear Sir, very faithfully yours, W. HUSKISSON. " To John Bolton, Esq. &c." Tit Diorama is about to re-open with two new pie- NU of great variety and interest.

" The last performance for some months," according to the bills, of Il Crociato. attracted a numerous and brilliant audience on Saturday. An apology was cir culated for Signer CURZON!, who was evidently much indisposed, and his part was necessarily curtailed : with this exception, the Opera went off with great effect. The Duet 11 tenero affetto, by Madame Bowel and VALLuaI, was most delightfully given, and receive) an unanimous encore. A new Opera Serie,. by MOH.. LACCHI, is in rehearsal, and a new Ballet. The .annsical entertainment hers on Friday Welt consisted of selections from Haydn's Oratorio. The Creation. The performance was Lvoarably received. COVENT GARDEN. Saturday evening - a new Play, in five acts, was brought forward, under the title of the French Libertine. This is the piece of which so much has been said in the public Parer:, in consequence of the interposition of the Licenser to prevent its representation. It is de. scribed as a drama in five acts, and it is well ttfst the author has given it the generic name, for it cannot be classed among any of the admitted varieties of stage productions. The greater part of it approaches neare! to Comedy than any thing else, and the rest is Melo dramatic. The hero of the Piece, it Is well-known, is the famous Duke of Richelieu, although his tide is changed to Rotigemont,—and the development of his licentious character, as connected with a simple anecdote, forms the whole business of the play. He has violently seduced the wife of a citizen, and still pursues her in her husband's house, under the assumed character of one of his own class. In this intrigue he is continually interrupted by the °mats els Fleury (Mrs. Cearrem.av), who is in love with him. In the end tilt. vie- . tim of his libertinism dies broken-hearted in his presence, and de nounces him in his real name to her husband. He Is struck with horror at the consequence of his crime, and in his distraction and penitence we have the moraL The author is entitled to much praise for having exhibited an odious character so as not to outrage the feelings of an audience, and he has certainly gone as close to the wind as possible. The dialogue has occa sionally some pretty passages, but it is not drama tic: but Mr. KRIEBLE'S representation of the chief character was admirable, and must have carried a piece of less merit through. Mrs. SLo►fArc, who acted as the citizen's wife, gained much applause; her,grief, however, was too monotonous; it always seemed wound to the highest pitch, and the mind had nothing else to rest upon throughout her performance. Mrs. GLOVER'S talents made a, great deal of an attendant upon the Lady. COOPER played the husband with feeling and pro; 'icy ; and WARDa and Powsa had, characters whiai did not allow them to use their best taleni. The dressing and decoration of the May are splen did beyond example, and it *as well received. The musical performances at this Theatre have commenced auspiciously. In the vocal department, Swum is the leader, and by his varied powers sets competition at defiance, in the execution both of secuLir and sacred music. Then there are the powerful attractions of Miss Srsrukes and Miss PATON. The performers nut in rank are highly respectable. DRURY-LANE. The management of this Theatre have engaged Miss Foam to perform twenty-four nights, commencing in three weeks, on terms alike creditable to the liberality of the manager, and the *afloat ledged talent and attraction of the young lady. Duv.s.—A duel was fought on Blackheath on Satur day, between Mons. M—u —v,. of• Lewisham.gron, and G. B.

S 1 ICES AND WILKINSON'S BANKRUPTCY.-•• The outstanding debts, taking them in round numbers, may be set down at 350,0001. and the assets (not thoi available ones) were computed to be about 200,0001. This compwation, however, was made at a time when' every description of funded securitieswere at the highest value ; and even on that calculation the balance against the public was tremendous-150,0001. It was stated in the room that a great part of the deficiencies are to be attributed to Mr. WILKINSON, who, it appears, has kept up a most princely establishment, including a suit of no l Mss than sixteen domestics, some of whom came to prove under the Commission for the services they had severally rendered to the estate. The adjourned Inquest on the - body of Mr. Pawn, fustian-manufacturer, at Manchester, who was found murdered in his own warehouse, was resumed on Thurs day. Mr. CRIISSWKLL and Mr,Jbanotr, surgeons, were re-examined, as well as another witnets,but nothing deci sive was elicited, and the Inquest was again adjourned to this day. Some idea may be formed of the extent of commer cial distress in this county, from the fact of a Bank, in Manchester, having received 380 returned bills one de/ daring the last week. In Liverpool, the state of the commercial world is peculiarly gloomy; business is dell ; the price of merchandise is generally on the de 'dine, and confidence, which appeared to be reviving, seems again to have wholly vanished.—Liverpool Cons sercial Chronicle.

COMPANY FOR PROMuTING MANUFAC- • TURES IN IRELAND.• r Meeting of the Proprietors of this Company toot place at cheeky of London Tavern on Saturday, T, Spiing Rio., Esq. M.P.in the Chair, for she pwps.so(, receiving from . the Directors a full Report of their -twee ceedings, and &stateliest( of die Company's Accounts. ' The Report-stated the advantages most likely Lobe derived by Irelaod in the employment of capital, by carrying on various ,species' of manufacture in that country, in fottherauce of which object. a Committee had been formed in January, 1825, and a Bill passed last Session; constituting the Subscribers a Joint Stack Company, with power and authority to build and esta blish manufactories, brewhouses, distilleries, mill , ' foundries, potteries, glasshouses, kilns,&c. in Ireland, but not to carry ott bade therein; providing for the pur chase and re-sale of land; restraining the Company from exercising any of the powers until four-fifths of the capital should have been subscribed for. The Report weat on to state, that in consequence of the fluctuations in the money market, the Company had been somewhat impeded in their progress in the dis posal of remaining shares, and at this juncture it was projected to micros, the capital below the sum named in the Act. A legal •opinion was taken, by which it appeared that to effect this object a fresh application to Pat !lament would be tequisite. It was not deemed ad visable to bring the Shareholders together until subse quent to the meeting of Parliament, and the interval was employed in making inquiries respecting the best and most economical mode of establishing the factories . It was considered expedient to reduce the capital of the Company to one million, and in the present situation of affairs the Directors submitted two alternatives to the Proprietors of shares : first, th.tt each Proprietor should double his nominal stalti,hy which means the subscrip ' don would at once be filled up to the required two millions; or, secondly, that the Proprietors should au• thorise the Directors to make an application to Parlia ment for an amendment to the present Act, enalrling them to reduce the capital to one million.—The ac counts of the Company Were then read to are meeting. Mr. PALlielt thought the undertaking, if carried into execution, must be attended with incalculable benefit to Ireland ; but he thought every subscriber who chose should be at liberty to withdraw, and concluded by moving a Resolution to that effect. The amendment was put and neptived by a majority of six. The original Resolution was then put, when the numbers were as follow :—Ayes, 51—Noes, 29—Majority in support of the ori ginal Resolution, hen Three cargoes of timber are now in the Thames, which the proprietors have offered to give up entirely on being relieved from the payment of the freight. Wool, in large quanties, Consigned bete, has been re turned to the Continent unsaleable.

LAW REPORT. COURT OF CHANCERY—THIS DAY. fhe LORD CRANCILLOR came down to Lincoln's Inn Hall this morning, at ten o'clock, and was occupied in his private room for about half an hour. His Lordship's appearance clearly bespoke the sevetity of the late attack. He walked lame, but we are happy to say did not appear so much so as was expected. On coming into Court, Mr. MONTAGU rose and brought on di motion of interest ply to the patties concerned. Tlu Glamorganshire case occupied the whole of the mora.ng. VICE CHANCELLOR'S COURT, Pi.. ii. THORLEY V. BYRNE. EARL OF CRAVIVIRD AND LINDSAY. VISCOUNT GA RNOCIS WILL. , Mr. WRAY appeared for the Attorney General. The case was a singular one. The Hen. Charles Crawford, commonly called Etrl of Crawford and Lindsay, Viscount Garnock, died in the month of February, INS, leaving a will, dated in the year 1816, by which, after giving a vast number of legacies to various charitable purposes, principally for the circulating of the Scrip tures, and educating slaves and ignorant persons in many different parts abroad, his will contained this clause; ii I direct my executor to take another lease of the land I now hold in Antigua, of the heir of Clement Fudway, in the year of 18S5, to liberate all my negro slaves, after they have been propesly instructed in various trades, in order to enable them to make a just use of their freedom ; and after they have all been taught to read the Bible, and been treated with all the humanity that reason and justice will allow. If the lAnd can neither be rented nor purchased but at a most extravagant price, I mean'that my negroes should be kept at what is called 'task-work ' nntirtlie year 1833." The executor was made the plaintiff is this suit; and • the heir at law of the testator the defendant, The ATTOINET•OENZEAL ) on the part of the Crown, contended that this was a charitable beeriest to the negroes of the testator, and therefore asked a reference to the master, to inquire whether. the charitable ma. sure could be , and how, carried into effect; and, if it could not be carried into execution, then to aseer:ain to • what charitable purpose the property ought to boapplied. Mr. HEALD and Mr. Rouen. appeared fOr the exe cutor, who, of course, was willing to act as the Court might think fit. His counsel felt it their duty to state, that the negroes had not yet been informed of the death of the testator, or of the nature of his will. The testator seemed to have acted with want of prudence, and the difficulty was, how the Court could now act with pro. deuce in carrying the testator's intention into effect.— The slaves were now employed at task work ; and was the agent who has the care of them, to let them know the effect of the will, there would be among them an instant insurrection, and it would be totally,impossible, • in their uncultivated state of mind, to keep them in a state of subordination. Nothing could be more injurious than to apprise them that they were to be emancipated in the year 1833, and then also to become entitled to a legacy among them of 10,0001. to be paid out of the residue of the testate?: estates. . . Mr. HART and Mr. DAVI= were Comsat for the heir-at law, who claimed the whole. He did not think it practicable that thr: negro., tumid be dealt inch as the will 'seated to direct. After a gond deal of discussion at the bar, His HONOUR said, the instructing of the skeet, and the bequest of the testator to support them, tiniest as much, and as good a legacy as any other legacy dot - 'Ter or could have been given by the will. L appeased iirat the testator's Tease of the farm he had held had, spired in his lifetime, and that it hid not been renewed. What the Court would do was, to make an order re ferring it to the Mas.er to take the missal accounts of • .the testator's real and' personal estate, aid-of the lega cies. To inquire what negroes the testator di:xi possess id of, what additions had been made to them by births, how they had been citcurnstanced and employed, under whose care and management they were, whether there were the means in the island of employing them at task work, and whether by the existing laws of An tigua, the legacy with regard to them was a good le gacy, and could be alio:red to operate. ... : COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, haftemw 11. DON JOSE ANTONIO DE YEISSARI V. W. J. CLEMENT, EMU In this case a rule had been obtai,ied, calling en the plaintiff to show cause why the verdict should not bit set aside and a nonsuit entered, or a new trial granted, on the ground, first, that Chili was not a State; and secondly, that the plaintiff could not recover on - this libel, as he was engaged in illegally attempting to raise a loan for a foreign country. The Court now overruled both these objections, but mentioned a third, namely, that the meaning of t`ie libel was irt properly stated in the inuendos inserted in the declaration; and on this ground they thought the 'case ought to go down to a new trial. The rule for a new trial was accordingly made absolute. CORN EXCHANGE, MARE-LANE, FtaIIVAILT 15.
