London Tavern, in Bishopsgate-street, on Tuesday, the 25th day of May instant, at Eleven o'Clock in the forenoon for Twelve precisely, to choose Directors, Trustees, Auditor, and Treasurer, to read over the Draft of the Deed of ReguLvions fettled by Counsel, and to arrange for the immediate working of the Mines. By Order, JOHN NITCH, Secretary. N. B. The business of the Meeting will begin precisely at Twelve o'Clock. " We participate in the general lamentation that your Royal Highness's forcible Appeal to the House of Commons should have been received with such Inattention and disrespect—a dis respect which we cannot conscientiously attribute to any other cause but to that defective state of the representation, that want of identity of interest and feeling with the people, which, hew much soever to be'deplored, is almost universally allowed to be as notorious as the sun at noon day :' at the same time, we cannot but feel deeply affected with that noble generosity of soul which could alone induce your Royal Highs'ss to suppose that the refusal of Parliament te entertain the question "originated in a convktion that your innocence stood above all suspicion, and an a 7 prehension that parliamentary interference might delay the restoration to your daughter's society." " In our humble judgment, had the House of Commons con ducted itself toward. your Royal Highness as true Representa tives of the generous English nation, the people would have had no need to have stood forward as your protectors. " We deprecate the exercise of a discretion on the part of Lord Sidmonth, the Secretary of State for the Home Department, which prevented records, most honourable to your Royal High nets, being handed demi to posterity in the official Guartfe of Government. " This refusal renders the interference of the people the more necessary : it becomes the people to express the contempt of the Hypocritical pretences under width your Royal Highness has beefs deprived of the society of your only child. " We cannot refrain from offering our sentiments to your Royal Highness, on the truly maternal affection you have evinced for your Royal Daughter, which claims from us the molt lively admiration. May ye long live the mutual comfort and solace of each other: and when, in the course of time, your Royal Daugh ter may become our Sovereign, we trust it will be ever firmly impressed on her mind, that, at a period when the borough-mon gering factions, the detestable oligarchy of Great Britain, united in one impenetrable phalanx against the cause of her Royal Mo ther, the People—the ab-sed People of England—did justice to her innocence and virtue.

It was certain, however, that compensation was due to these persons. Such was the principle uniformly, and constantly acted upon in this country. Even when injuries happened to per sons in consequence of war, it was the practice for our Government to compensate them. But in this case the injury happened by the act of the Govern. ment, which had alienated the rights of the subject for the purpose of avoiding a war. Therefore it was doubly incumbent on Government to do justice in this instance. The King of Prussia, at the end of the seven years war; made a compensation to his subjects who had suffered by that war. 'li'e Hon. Mcmher quoted several other cases from history where similar compensations bad been given, and he contended that the present was a stronger case than any of them. He concluded with moving, that it be the opinion of this House that the petitioners had established such a case as tormed an equitable ground for Parliamentary relief. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, said, the case now presented to the House was of im portance, as it respected the sum concerned, but it was much greater as respected the principle which it went to establish, namely, that the Government of a country tailing to obtain from a foreign power all the compensation which certain of its subjects had a claim to, that the public were bound to make good these compensations. This would be a most mis. chievous doctrine to be adopted or encouraged ; and without such a doctrine were adopted, he saw nu reason for the present motion. The Right Hon. Gentleman then proceeded to observe upon the seve veral Treaties, Stipulations, and Conventions, which had taken place betwen this country and America on this subject, from 1783 to 180'2. By the Treaty of 1784 it was provided that all bona Pe debts on each side, should be recoverable ; and that all possible fa cility should be given to each claimant, by the sepa rate Governments. This continued till 18u(2, when a new Convention was entered into, when it appeared that 8600,000 had been recovered by the claimants ; and that Convention still reserved to them all the ad. vantages which had been secured to them by the ori ginal 'Treaty of 1781 , ; and, therefore, be thought there was no necessity for the motion. Sir I'. BARING was in favour of the claims ; and in support of his opinion re-urged all the argu. ments which had been used by the Hon. Member who brought forward the motion, and contended, that it, for political reasons, it should be considered wise not to enforce the articles of the Treaties relative to this subject, between America and this country, fa vourable to the British merchants, our own Govern ment were bound to make good the claims of its own subjects, sacrificed to public views and objects. Mr. W. SMITH would not detain the House with again going over the grounds on which the claims of the individuals making this application to the House were founded ; but attar having read the Report care. fully over, he was prepared to say, that, in his opi nion, no claims were ever founded more in justice than the present were. The claims of these persons on the American Government had been compromised by the Government of this country for a public object ; the Public had derived advantage from that compro mise, and were bound to make compensation to these claimants. Mr. BATHUitST contended, that Government had done more than in strict justice it could have been called on to do for these persons ; since, besides procuring 8600,000 from the American Government for them, it was still provided that the American Courts should be open to than. He was ready to acknowledge it was extremely hard that these persons should be so long kept out of their property ; but if it were once to be established, that Government should be liable to be called on to compensate indivi dual losses, it would open a dangerous door for spe culation. He did not, under all the circumstances, consider this as a claim which could be entertained, and therefore he should move the previous question. The previous question having been put, Mr. WHITBREAD rose to support the original question. He was astonished to hear what had been asserted by the Right Hon. Gentleman who spoke last, namely, that should the claims of these persons be acceded to, it would open the door to speculators, should their speculations in foreign countries prove unsuccessful, to come to the public for compensation. I ln his (Mr. W.'s) opinion, the cases were not analo gous ; the present was a national contract, male by Lord Grenville, who always looked with a jealous eye to the interests of the claimants, and never took any step without consulting them. Not so Lord Li verpool. The original claims of these persons had amounted to 41,400,000. Lord Liverpool agreed to accept the sum of 4600,000 on behalf of these per sons, instead of 81,400,000; but, said the Right Hon. Gentleman, the Noble Lord not only did this, but he still preserved for them the right of going into the American Courts. What was the use of reserving to them the privilege of going into Courts, which, from local circumstances, were inaccessible to them ; and even if they had been open—with what probabi lity could they have applied there for redress after a NORTH WALES.—TO FARMERS.

" Nothing can be more gratifying to me than the expressions of attachment in this Address from the great and popuknis county of Middlesex. I retain my opinion of the motives which induced Parliament to decline interfering hi the question relating to me ; although it is a matter of deep concern, that notwithstanding the clear establishment of my innocence, I should find myself more completely than ever deprived of my daughter's society. I have, indeed; suffered most severely for presuming to defend my ho nour and my life.

Mr. FINLAY presented a Petition from the Cotton Manu facturers of Paisley, praying that there might be no prohibition on the importation of American Cotton. Mr. SHAW brought in his Bill for the recovery of small debts in Ireland, which was read a first time. Mr. ABERCROMBIE ROBINSON moved for the Copy of a Letter from Charles Buller Esq. to the Court of Ditectors, on the subject of the conduct of Bengal Government, respecting the Temple of the Idol Jaggernaut. Mr. PALMER moved, that the Resolution of 1808, on the subject of the per Centage due to Mr Palmer, his father, should be referred to a Committee of the whole Home. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER expressed him self decidedly agaimt the claim, but said he should nut oppose the going into a Committee. Mr. PALMER then moved for some accounts, on the same subject, to be laid before the House. .1 he House went into Committee on the Sugar Importation from Mariega!ante when a resolution of the Chancellor of the Exchequer was agreed to. Mr. WHITBREAD said, as he understood the Right Hon. Gentleman intended to move that the Civil List Papers should be referred to a select Committee, it was his own intention, on such occasion, to move that they be considered in the whole House. On the motion that the Irish Malt Bill be committed, Sir J. Nawrorr opposed it, on the ground that it was unproductive, and tended to destroy the morals of the people. Mr. SHAW, and General MA THEW, took the same ground. Mr. W. FITZGERALD insisted that its tendency was not immoral; and shewed, by some statements, that it had been productive, and would probably be more advantageous. Mr. D. BROWNE spoke in favour of the BBL In his opinion, nothing but such a measure could keep down private distilling. Mr. FRENCH spoke against the Bill. Mr. PEEL supported it. A Division then took place—For the commitment, 110— Against it, 96. Ike Bill then went through a Committee, and the report was ordered to be received to morrow. PARLIAMENTARY PRIVILEGES. Mr. CREEVEY thought it his duty to state to the House, that he had this day been sentenced to pay a fine of seloo, by the Court of King's Bench, for an alledged libel, being the report of his opinions expressedin Parliament, and that unless he bad paid such fine, he should have been sent to the King's Bench Prison. As he conceived this conduct of the Court to affect very seriously the privileges of tie House, he Mitte l p e ;ixed a Petition and Re monstrance against the judgment. were not, however, In the state fit to come before the House to-day :he should, there fore present them to-morrow, and then fix some early day for the consideration of their contents. CLAIMS OF AMERICAN MERCHANTS. Mr. LOCKHART rose to bring forward a ma tion, of which he had given notice, respecting the pe tition of the merchants to whom debts were owing by the Americans. He enumerated the several attempts that had been made, at various times, for adjusting these debts ; and the failure of those attempts, owing to the conduct of the Americans themselves.
