Jeprite the person of his liberty, and it 'did not ap ,tar that any attorney had been employed. To remedy o w es, the Hon. and Learned Gentleman added a ' — clanc e, which enacts, th..t when a person sues out bailable proem, the Sheriff shall not issue the writ. s ail it is i nJorsed by a respectable attorney. Another' c lause was also added, by which it is provided that is all eas es where parties proceed by special original, fit s um not exceeding 1001. the last shall not be • than t h e e xpenses incurred by common process. • Bn then paned through a Committee; the House resounds t a e Report was ordered to be taken into further consideration CANADA CLERGY RlSNltlirell DILL. . /It l o w resolved itself into a Committee for the re-committal ask clergy Reserves Bill. SVILMOT.HORTON observed, that the object of this Bill was to authorise the sale of the lands reserved by the Clergy of Canada. The lands reserved under die gig of tieorge 111. were 800,000 acres, and - this Bill Ins intended to legalize the sale of 100,000 acres an molly, but without any provisions for the appropriation t ithe proceeds. Great misapprehension had gone abroad re specting the Canada Clergy Act. By that law one seventh of the land was set apart for the maintenance of t h e Clergy ; but these lands, which might have produced a considerable revenue had they been alienable, have n ever, in fact, netted any income whrever. Meantime the House was called upon to provide for the support of the Clergy. The object of this Bill, therefore, was. to take thelasd out of mortmain, aad to get rid of this burden upon the country. It had been supposed that Government was prevented from appropriating any part to the Scotch Clergy ; but this was a mistake; Go vernment only said, till these lands were available, no provisions could be made for any elms'. There was in fist no funds for the Clergy. As to the appropriation nt the money, that was a subject for the future consi• sitratiOn of the House. The present Bill did not pledge the Government or the country, beyond.the disposal of the lands, for providing a fund for supporting the Clergy. Long before the sale could take place, the question of appropriation would be brought before the House—( Hear). Mr. WARBURTON had expected that this was to be an inquiry into the state of the Church in Canada; and as the House was in possession of no information oal this subject, there could not be a better ground foe postponing the measure. The Hon. Gentleman had, however, made great concessions, both in his clause and in his speech, which offered a strong contrast with that on a former night, when he appeared to have solely in view the interests of the Established Church. Having heard the statement of the Right Hon. Gentle man, and believing that the measure he proposed was but temporary, he should not oppose it on the present cccasion. He hoped, however, that a portion of the lands to be sold would be apportioned to the maintenance of the Catholic Church in Canada as well as the Protestant. Lord BINNING concurred with Ms Hon. Frleod, and gave ha support to the present measure. Mr. STANLEY said that the state of the church lands in Canada was suck, that although be abandoned his opposition at present, he prposed early in the next Session, to move fora Committee to in "ire tato the state of the clergy lands In Canada. Mr. ESTCOURT concurred in the propriety of postponing the delusion of the main question until neat Session. He conceived Olathe present measure was wise and politic, and he therefore gale tin support. Mr. WILMOT-HORTON replied—The sale of the church km ' s. Canada was intended to benefit the members of the Church ci Sco t l a nd, as well as the Church of England. Lord Banims and Mr. Nauseam* mutually captained. ihrhaue then resumed, and the report was ordered to be re , wired od . dfond ay. The Dib k r ucptAincttitt ed on Friday . Arneridenteill was read a second time, and ordered ze he on COll/1111PAr BILAGISTILACT On the modal that this BiU be read a third time, Mr. H KATHCOTE objected, and moved that it be read a third time ou Monday.

This, after seatesib. l elisuoti, was agreed to, and the Bill postponed to Monday. Tht other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and at Tama OCtert the House 'Owned to tonal:crow (this day). COURT OF ALDERMEN. Yesterday ti Special Court of Aldermen was held for the purpose of disposing of the Petition presented by sundry inhabitants of the Ward of Vintry against the election of Mr. E A. Wilde as Alderman of that Ward. About two o'clock this case was called on, and the public admitted. The LORD MAYOR having inquired whether any Counsel appeared in support of the Petition, Mr. BRIM the attorney, stated that the Petitioners at this time had not that advantage. Mr. v. —marina. and Mr. BRODRRICK appeared for Mr. Wilde. The Petition was then read. It complained of the decision of the Lord Mayor, as returning officer at the election; and the manner in which its subsequent scrutiny was conducted, by which the votes of the Peti tioners, 14 in number, and which bad been given for Mr. Sheriff Winchester, had been struck out. Mr. Bala was heard in support of the Petition, and stated the facts relating to the election, with which the public are perfectly well acquainted, and strongly urged the claims of the Petitioners. CAMPULL was heard against the Petition. The Court was cleared, and after continuing in deliberation about an hour, the parties were again called in, when The LORD MAYOR said, that the Court having heard the Petition and the arguments in support of and against they had resolved that the Petition mast be dismissed. Mr. WILD& then, by his Counsel and personally, re quited that he might be sworn in. The LORD MAYOR said, that was a distinct question, lad one upon which the Court must again deliberate. Strangers haw* again withdrawn, a very warm and animated discussion ensued, which ended in a division; when the numbers +neared to be equal. Aker the doors of the Court were closed a discussion took place wnontst the Aldermen. A Wet man ATKINS moved, that Mr. Wilde be SWOCKI AMernun Canwsaa seconded the 1110(100. Alderman WAITHMAN advocated the motion. He considered that it was the duty of the Court to swear in Mr. Wilde. They owed it to the Ward also to settle the matter in that way. He considered that Mr. Win chester had denied the right of the Court to adjudicate. A . l ti ennan WOOD was most decidedly of the same ° P i "'en. It was the duty of the Court to proceed imme dia tely to the ceremony of swearing in Mr. Wilde. Alderman GARRATT also strongly supported the motion ; as did Aldermen Taoism and VINABLEA, and J. J. SMITH. Alderman BIRCH opposed the motion. Ha thought' that it would l e preposterous to think of :erasing hal Nr. Wilde pending the proceedings in the Court oil King's Bench. AlJerman THOMPS.IN thought the Ceuta was bound in the first instance to have sworn in Mr. Winchester. They ought to have obeyed the mandamus, and by that means prevent expenses and responsibility to the City. ' Alderman C. SMITH was of the same opinion, as were Aldermen LAustre and LUCAS. The motion was put, and there appeared eight for, and eight against the motion. The LORD Matvort then said that he felt it his duty to give the casting vote against the motion.—This excited , great dissatisfaction outside. The question remains in Oahe quo.—lt is expected that the subject will be renewed at the next Court ofAldermen. THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. SATURDAY, JUNE 16, 1827. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Coax& opened this morning at SS for the Account buyers, and up to the present time they rennin steady at the above price, with little or nothing doing.

The House of Lords was much crowded last night, in the expectation that the Amended Corn Bill would be brought forward, but the author and supporters of the Amendment hung back ; and the country is thus left to writhe another year ander the operation of the old law. The Report on Mr. WILUOT.HORTOS*S Bill respect ing the Canada Clergy Reserves, was tardier considered in the Have of Commas last4night. Letters from Paris, of this morning, say, that the Greeks have requested Russia and the other great Powers not to interpose between them and the Turks. The Paris Papers, received last night, contain me lancholy tidings from Greece, brought to Trieste by a vessel, which left Syra on the 19th ult. It is stated that the Seraskier, RCUSCHIII PACHA, who has so long besieged the citadel of Athens, having received large reinforcements from Constantinople, surrounded the Greeks, and having furiously attacked them, destroyed the flower of their army, to the amount of from three to four thousand men. After this overwhelming defeat, the troops who had so long and so courageously de fended the Acropolis, capitulated according to one version, and according to another had come to the resolution, of blowing themselves up with that for tress. From the date of the disaster not being men tioned, and from other circumstances, which we shall presently state, it is our firm belief that the present re port is merely an amplification of the account we gave two days ago, brought also by a vessel, which had ar rived at Trieste from Syra, where she had touched on ber way from Smyrna, and which stated as a mere rumour, discredited by the Captain himself, that the Acropolis had surrendered, though not in con sequence of a great defeat of the Greeks, but from want of provisions alone. We have no doubt that the vessel, referred to in the too accounts, is the same, as the dates correspond in both cases, as respect Trieste as well as Syra. We have little doubt, therefore, that the intelligence of the overthrow of the Greeks rests upon a more than suspicious authority, particularly as it is altogether improbable that the Greeks, with so many means of ascertaining the movements of the enemy, and directed at the same time by so skilful an Officer as General CHuncu, would suffer themselves not only to be taken by surprise, but to be hemmed in, in such a manner as to preclude the possibility of escape. They are fu too wary, as every one must bear testimony, who has bad an opportunity of making personal obiervations on their manner of fighting, to be caught in such a trap. We repeat, therefore, that the news of their entire defeat rests upon the most uncertain authority. In the non. official part of the Moaiteur, there are ad vice: from Stockholm to the 26th ult. according to which the Swedish Government had given orders that a naval arenzment, consisting of a ship of tie line,' two frigates, and several smaller vessels, should be got ready by the middle of June, for the purpose, as was conjectured, of j-iining a Russian squadron which was fitting out at Croostade for the Mediterranian. We confess that the junction of the two squadrons, as well as ilteir ulterior destination, appear to us highly pro bleratical t and suspect, on the contrary, that the sole object of the Russian armament is the etercise of the seamen, which is perforated annually in the Bailie and the German Ocean. The Swedish squadron is probably fitting out for a similar purpose. QUEENSBERRY LEGATEES. --ow - THOMAS V. MONTOOMIHT. Yesterday the Vica-CHArical.t.ou was pleased to or der 360,8701. 4s. 2J.

FIRE IN ‘VHITZCISAPIL.—A most alarming fire broke out yesterday morning, in the house of Mr. Dans, wholesale con fectioner, in Osborne -street, Whitechapel. The cause of the fire is said to have been the following—One of the coppers which was used in Mr. Danis manufactory, for the purpose of boiling his confection ary, happened to burst, and almost instantaneously the house was In flames. This was about haltpast 52 o'clock, and although the engines were there in a short time afterwards, nothing could check the pro gress of the destructive element for soma hours. The adjoining house of Mr. Sams, a salesman, soon followed the feet of that of Mr. Davis, and was burned to the ground. The flames then extending back wards, caught several houses in a court at the rear, which were also destroyed. From thence the fire pursued its devastating course Into the Higlsatreet, Whitechapel, where it destroyed the houses' of Mr. Burroughs, the lace-dealer; of Mr. Blithe, the ironmonger; and also that of Mr. Monk. the shoemaker, at the corner of Osborue-street and High-effect—thus making a circle, wbkb is only broken by the house of Mr. Morris, an eating-house keeper, which stands alone, and almost uninjured, amidst the general devastation. The Ere commenced at one side of it, and burned round to the other. It is, however, a new home and most likely has been preserved by the s trength of its party wails. A good deal of property must necessarily have been destroyed ; bet it is supposed that no lives have been lost. The engines were still playing upon the ruins yesterday afternoon ; but there was no danger of any luau mischief. CANTERBURY, Juwa 15. • Ali attempt was made in the Houle of Co Litton on Wednesday, to Mitain through the medians of a Petition. signed by a few illectots of Canterbury, prevented by Lord Cursory a deci sion of that House, as to the legality or propriety of Mr. UNlDO roa's holding his seat, after being appointed to the Gomennseur of Madras. Mr. Losnisolos met the question in a very manly manner, and with a similar feeling avowed his determinatiou, were be to continue kis attendance in Parliament, to support the present Adniinistratioo. He justly observed that the Petition was not from any of his constituents, but from a few of those who had assi forinly opposed him. It is almost unnecessary to add,, that doe idea of the seat being vacated was scouted by the Humor. die Pad don bring merely ordered to lie upon the table, without any odor notice being taken of its contents, excepting directing ic to W printed.—Canterkry Gawk. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.. The Maria, %Fusee, bound to Demerara, put back to Gravesend on Thursday with damage. The Daudet', of London. Captain Duncan, supposed to have been lost last year at Davis's Straits, arrived in Shetland a few days ago. She was beset at Davis's Straits, about the 7th of August lad, in company with the new ship Haarlem, belonging to Harlingen. On , the 434 of August, the latter was lost close to the Dundee. The Dutch people saved nothing, but got on board the Dundee, and lived on board till the 6th of October, when they pr to easter veer to reach a settlement on the east coast of o rv e i!'s Straits, about 450 mile. distant from the Dundee. Captain Duncan fur nished the Dutch crew, forty-di in number, with provisions and spirits for a voyage of three weeks, and the Dundee's people assisted in launching their boats over the ice into clear water, which was visible from the Dundee's mast-head. Since that time, Captain DUMAN has beard nothing of them. The crew of she Dundee suffered severely from cold and hunger through the winter. On the Ist of February they got a fl•b, and on the 16th February another in a hole of water made by an iceberg. The crew were much relieved by this, as they lived upon the crams and the sharks that were attracted by the dead fish. Captain peaces writes that tbe,Dundre is uninjured, and in good order.

NORWICH, JONI 18.—In the early part of last week it got to the ears of the Wymondham people that the weavers of Ash. welthorpe bad taken work at an under price ; in consequence of which a patty, disposed to commit mischief, proceeded to that place, wbere,after some riotous proccedinp,they succeeded in eget* off the work in Yard, and destroyed the frames. A few whams' of this transaction came to Norwich on Friday, for the mow* of giving information' of these illegal acts, and on their rotors they were met outside St. Stephen's gates, and identified as informers, by the Wydmoodham rioters. Every possible outrage Ives re. sorted to by these infatuated men, who draggeoVthe witnesses through the roads, beating them most unmercifully, and after wards pumping upon themormillife was nearly gone. Yesterday (Tuesday) was the time appotnted'by the Magistrates of the county For the further hearing et the witnesses at the Shire Hall, situate below the Castle. About four o'clock in the afternoon it was an. nounced that the witnesses were in the City, and coming on tie Castle Hill, in three coaches ; and, although guarded by a strong military detachment, the rioters were resolved to murder them if it were possible, or at any rate prevent them from getting to the Shire Hall. The carriages were proceeding from AU Saints' Green, over Sc. John's Timber Hill, into Golden Hall-lane, the extremity of which lace opens to the Castle Hill, when they were driven by the mob in a contrary direction, via.—on to Seeks' Green, which has but one opening for carriages and hereemen. The others being very . natrow .lanes, impassable except to those on foot. In the neon time other bands of rioters se i sed a waggon, and overthrew it, so as to block up the entrance to the only pass which lead. to the hill; whilst others seised two bay Arts and a tumbril, and after upsetting theta, they were fastened by topes so as to barricade the entrance through the iron gates which leads direct to the Castle over the arched bridge. Thus all communi. cation Was cat off,by this masterly manceuere,between Scoles' Green and the Castle. The Riot Act was then read by Mr. Aid. Francis, mounted on horseback, accompanied by several brother Magistrates, and special constables, amidst shoo/era of stogies and brickbats. Mr. F. was twice struck on the head, and obliged ro be escorted off the bill by a detachment of soldiers. The rioters pelted the soldiers is every direction. The 12th Lancers, the Norfolk Yeomanry Cavalry. and the Staff of the Militia, were drawn out for the absolute pro *eclat of the Castle, which even now, has a garrison within the building. - The Lancers and Cavalry (now six o'clock) charged the mob, when several were desperately wounded. • For about three quar ters of an hour the immense Castle-hill, covered with the multi tude,.and the military force in combat, presented a most awful scene. The witnesses, after a detention of nearly biz hour. were conveyed safely into the Castle. Fresh detachments of Lancers have entered the city this morning, and are ready to act at a mta• ment's notice. Crowds are still assembled round the Castle gates, which are not opened as usual fur promenaders to pass to the gravel walks around this ancient building. How long the witnesses may be compelled to endure their forced and vexatious imprisonment it is impossible to tell, "as danger is still abroad." zeveral rioters are In custody, but the ringleaders, as usual, have escaped. PURTISSR PARTICULARS. Noawsce, Sums 14, Qu Five o'Cucx.—About an h.ur after the mail left yesterday some other witnesses, that had been brought up for rumination, were escorted out of Norwich to Wy enondham by about thirty of the yeomanry.

The deceased was at the time stooping, when witness spoke io him as to the danger. He paid no attention, but immediately afterwards his foot slipped, and he was precipitated to the street—a height of upwards of forty feet. Witness was so alarmed at seeing him fall, that he was obliged to lay tight hold of the ladder to prevent himself fatting. He believed it to be purely acci.'ental. A surgeon was sent for, and Dr. Holland arrived, but tbedeceased was quite dead, his scull being dashed to atoms. Vet dirt .4 Accidental death.' : , , 1 i ,1 . lii ! 1 (...; Ili , .
