REPORT ON PUBLIC EXPENDITURE. The 2d part of the Fifth Report of the Committee upon the Public Expenditure of the United Kingdom, and also the 6th, 7th, Bth, and 9th, Reports, have been printed. They complete the whole of the Re ports on this subject, ordered to be printed in the late Session. The Fifth Report concludes with the fol lowing wholesome and necessary advice: " Your Committee cannot conclude their Report without drawing the attention of the House, in a more especial manner, to the importance of the sub ject here treated of. Economy, at all times necessary to the welfare of a State, cannot, in the present cir cumstances of the country, be too highly estimated; but must be considered to increase in its consequence in proportion to the growing exigencies and expences of the nation. At no pet iod in the annals of the his tory of this country, has Parliament, in its legislative capacity, and as Guardian of the Public Purse, more imperiously been called upon to institute every prac ticable check against the mismanagement and misap plication of the public money, than at this time ; and, considering the immensely accumulated, and still in creasing, amount of the public debt, k becomes (as your Committee with deference submit) a duty in cumbent upon the House of Commons to take this subject under their most serious deliberation, that by the adoption of legislative measures, the object of more effectually husbanding the resources, and dimi nishing the expences of the nation, may, by every practical means, be accomplished ; great retrench ments, whenever they can be effected without detri ment, ought unquestionably to be made. But al. though such objects may, from their magnitude, par ticularly attract public attention, the security of the State more immediately depends upon the habit of eco nomy practically enforced in die various departments of the receipt and expenditure of the public money. Exclusive of the benefit, in an economical point of view,to be derived from a regular, promptand efficient 1 system,for the examination and audit of the Public Ac counts, very considerable advantage would result from the regularity which a well-arranged plan cf this de scription would necessarily introduce into the trans action and conduct •f official business, beyond what can be expected from arty other species of inquiry or internal regulation of office; public delinquency would become less frequent, and those objectiokt and hard ships arising from a tardy settlement of their accounts, so grievously felt and complained of by almost every class ef accountants, and which your Committee have reason to believe hare created a strong indisposition on the part of many persons of scrupulous integrity to become public accountants, would be in a material degree diminished, if not entirely removed." The Sixth Repor4 relates to the collection of taxes in Scotland. It sets out with stating, that the whole amount of property tax collected and paid into the Exchequer in Scotland, for the year ending the sth of January, 1809, is stated to be only 8916,7(X) net, and £32.1,617 gross. In consequence of this apparent de ficiency, the Committee inquired into the collection of this tax, and it became necessary to send for a state of the arrears of the Assessed Taxes and Property-tax in Scotland. Then follows a copy of the Return, with observations of the Committee upon it, in which the tardy mode of delivering the assessments is as signed as a principal cause of the deficiency ; and the Committee recommend that means may be taken for the more speedy collection of the revenue in that part of the United Kingdom ; and that effectual means ought to be taken for ascertaining the true value of its landed property. The Seventh Report relates to public buildings. civil and military. The Eighth Report relates to the Linen Board of Ireland, in which it points out several irregularities ; among which, it complains, " that almo..t one-third part of the revenues entrusted to the care of this Board, amounting between January 1808 and 1810, to a sum of 4624164, has been expendesl in the depart ment of the architect; and of this sum, X 1.727 in painting, plastering, and papering, at the Linen Hall, and the Officers' Houses :" and there appear further, in the 36th Report . of the Commissioners of impreit Accounts, other sums disbursed for furniture, carpets, chimney and pier glasses, &c. for the house of the Chamberlain of the Linen Hall.—The Report concludes with stating, that the Committee are of opinion, that the concerns entrusted to the Board are not well administered, and that it would be advisable to seek for the means of correction in the revival of e2rtain wholesome provisions which accompanied the original establishment of the Board, viz. That the number of Trustees necessary to form a meeting should be seven—that the meetings be monthly—that no-building be undertaken of above £2O expence, without a previous estimate, sanctioned by a full Board—and that there be Sub-Committees to super intend the several es branch , &c. The Ninth Report of the Committee on Public Ex penditure, which has just been delivered, relates to Printing and Stationary. It appears that the charge upon the Public for Printing in England, was in 1808 £94,174. 16s. 101 d. and in 1809, £110,347 14s. so. in which is included Printing for the House of Lords, amounting in 1808 to £9,595 19s. 9d. and in 1809 to £10,461. 15s. 2d. and for the House of Commons Votes, Journals, and Miscellaneous Papers and Acts of Parliament,amounting in 1808 t0W28,131.185.11d. and in 1809 to £40,866. 12s. Bd.—The expence of Printing in Ireland, in 1809, was £55,797. 105. 10id. and in Scotland, in 1808, 13,350. 10s. 30. and in 1809, £3,475. Os. sd.—The charge of the Stationary Office in 1808 was £64,478, and the expence of stationary in Ireland, in 1809, was £33,080. 2s. 4{l. The Committee mention several instances in which the expence under these heads may be in some de gree lessened ; and, with a view to the regulation of this branch of expenditure, they propose that it should be placed in England and Scotland under the special superintendance of one of the Principal Officers of the Treasury, who should examine the bills for printing, and stationary, for the purpose of ascertaining the suitableness of the articles applied, and the fairness of • the charges ; and that a similar superintendance re specting printing and stationary in Ireland should be committed to some Officer of the Irish Exchequer.

LEWIS, Au o. St—CIVIL SIDI. The Lotto CHIEF BARON went into Conrt at eight o'clock this morning, but on the remaining causes 'being called on, the witnesses who had left the town on Saturday night were in general not returned, the consequence was that the causes were struck out of the paper: And two Special Jury cases on ere tried, which finished the business of this place. SMITH V. &SMUDGE. This was an action of trover to recover the vahte of two trees. The question in dispute was, whether' the trees had grown on the soil of the plaintiff, who was proprietor of a farm called Lower Okehurst, in the parish of Loxwood ; or whether the place was a part of the waste of the defendant's manor? For the plaintiff a number of old witnesses were called, who proved, that for sixty years past, the proprietors of Okehurst Farm had exclusively used the lane where the trees grew, and that they had constantly excluded the cattle of all other persons as trespassers. The Learned Judge stopped the plaintiff, and call ed upon Mr. Gal-row, as Counsel for the defendant, to state what answer he was about to give to this evidence. Mr. GARROW observed, the weather was very hot, and he would not now detain his Lordship. He would give the answer at the next Spring Assizes.—Verdict for the plaintiff. TIIN kCING V. THE INHABITANTS Or KENT. • This was an indictment against the inhabitants of Kent, for not repairing a bridge that had blown up by a swell of the river the winter before last. The inhabitants pleaded that they were not liable, but that it ought to be repaired by the Medway Com pany. The following facts were admitted between the parties :—That by an Act of Parliament, a C' mpany was created for improving the navigation of the Med way, and that that Company had deepened the river at the place where the bridge stood, which was before that time a ford used by all the King's subjects.— The ford being thus destroyed by the Company, in order to prevent an obstruction of passage, they built the bridge in question, and had repaired it until it was destroyed by the flo.-4. Mr. Serjeant Stimulant:l contended, that by law the County was obliged to repair any road or bridge used by the public, although made by a private person ; and Mr. Serjeant BUT argued, that in this case the Medway Company alone were liable. His Lordship held that the County was liable, and directed a verdict of Guilty. This finished the Assizes for this county. Since the last Assizes the County have built a handsome new Court House, on the exact model of the Essex Court. EDINBURGH, AUGUST 23. Last night a fire bloke out, in a house at the head of Sr. Mary's Wynd, which was easily got under, the only damage being the destruction of a bed. Friday morning last, between one and two o'clock, a fire broke out at Lixmount, near Newhaven, which at first had a very alarming appearance,. but, by the great exertions of the people in the neighbourhood, it was fortunately extinguished without doing much damage. Friday, the 17th inst. the foundation stone of the justiciary and town•hall of Jedburgh, was laid by JOHN RUTHERFORD, Esq. M.P. President of the Corn. Imittee appointed to conduct the building. A suitable address was made upon the occasion, by the Rev. Tuostas Someavatm, D.D. Minister of Jedburgh, in presence of the greater part of the gentlemen who compose the committee, and a numerous concourse of the inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood, assembled to witness the ceremony. Monday morning, between twelve and one o'clock, Andrew Miller, a cattle-dealer, a prisoner in the tol booth of Annan for debt, broke the iron stanchel of the window of the apartment in which he was confin ed, and made his escape. A few days ago, two boys, in bathing, at Portobello, went beyond their depth, and one of them sunk. The other, who fortunately could swim, with great intte. pidity dived in search of his companion, and succeeded in bringing him to the shore, in time to save his life. A boy belonging to the Rover sloop of war, now in Leith roads, endeavoured to make his escape on Monday morning, by swimming ashore; but when he had got a considerable distance from the vessel, his strength failed him, and lie would inevitably have been drowned, had not a Newhaven fishing boat been acci. dently passing` He was taken up in an almost liieless state. and carried on board the Adamant, where he died in a quarter of an hour afterwards. Friday afternoon, a boy very incautiously applied a red-hot poker to a bomb-shell, which proved to be charged, in the back court of a house in the Rotten row, Leith. It instantly exploded, by which he was very severely hurt, hut he is now in a fair way of re covery. A great number of the windows of the house were broke, and part of the poker was found at the distance of 120 yards from the spot. Monday se'nnight, Flora M'Millan, upwards of 80 years of age, was, at Cowcaddens, Glasgow, rode over by a cart loaded with wood, and killed on the spot. HIGH COURT OF JUSTICIARY, AUGUST 25. Yesterday came on the case of Peter Hewghan, late clerk to the Collector of Excise at Kirkaldy, ac cused of forging Excise debentures. At his trial, which took place some time ago, the libel was restricted to a particular statute, which enac ted, that the forging of debentures subjected the party to seven years transportation. The Jury re turned a verdict on that occasion, finding, that Hewghan had not forged the debentures, but that he had uttered them. His Counsel insisted that no pu nishment could follow, as uttering was not mentioncei in the statute. The Court ordered informations upon this point, which were delivered in for both parties. Their Lordships delivered their opinions at consider able length, and unanimously found that the prisoner must be acquitted. After a suitable exhortation from the Lord Justice Clerk, he was dismissed from the bar. The prisoner was no sooner dismissed, than a petition was presented and read to the Court, praying to ap prehend him on a charge of forging another deben ture. The Court immediately granted the warrant craved, and he was recommitted to prison. ...~ SPORTING INTALLIGEXCE. EGHAhI RACES, AUGUST 9$ The Gold Cup of ioOiri: value.
