• i and on the ll4oolitien Of everlasting memorial of pity, and greatness as exerted themselves to obtain currence of other States in bad indeed got a nominal tugal still carried on that the . Cuba. But this country, having abolished that trade in her colonies, ought to give them the greatest lati tude of trade. Looking then to all those ciretun staneec, he thought they afforded the most unan swerable arguments in 'favour of opening the trade with the colonies. That was themost effectual mode of giving relief to the colonies. Parliament ought to consider how to give relief to the British proptietor and to the negro under his protection. If they -re inovel/41 the restrictions , and broke asunder the fetters he which commerce was bound, there was no cal. colating the beneficial results which would follow.—, He think he could h ive any better illustration of the effects of a flee tra than the application ui the words of a great Poet .. of their own country, in allusion to the influence o f climate on the soul— " What seasons can contralti, " What fancied sone can circumscribe the soul, Which, conscious of the source from which it springs, " By reason's light, on resolution's wings, " Spite of her frail companion, dauntless gees " O'er Lyhian desarts and through Zembla's snows?" That %% as the language applied to the souls of men, but was far short of the description of the soul of commerce. The Right Hon. Gentleman, after a few more observations, concluded, amidst loud cheers from both sides of the House, by moving the two following Resolutions : is:. That the Chairman du move for leave to bring in a Rill to regulate the trade between his Majesty's possessions in 41:nerica and the West Indies, and other places in America. .‘ 2d. That the Chairman move for leave to bring in a NU to r:gulate the trade between his Xalesty's possess " ions in the West Indies and other places , exclusive of America. On the question being put by the Chairman on the first Resolution, Mr. WILBERFORCE spoke in terms of commen dation of the principle of extending the commerce of the West Indian Colonies. In proportion as the inter course was increased with our islands in that quarter, and they were visited by our ships, would the illicit traffic in slaves, still carried on by foreign countries, cortrary to their acknowledged sense of duty, and their positive stipulations, be kept in check. He un derstood that that odious trade was still carried on in Jamaica. He perceived some of his fi lends dissented; but if it were not so, there must be some pi ecautionary measures taken of which he was not aware, and which he would be glad to hear. His object was to impress on his Majesty's Government, the expediency of con sidering is this measure for the relief of the European interests of the West Indian Colonies, the greatest of ail interests, that of the slaves. He could not help thinking that it was absolutely necessary that a Re giAry PI Slaves should be kept in the Colonies. He would ❑ot occupy the time of the House longer by going into the details of this subject, but would con tent himself for the present with merely putting in his claim to a full consideration of the great interest kie had mentioned. . Mr. BARHAM assured the House, that there was, no ground for apprehending any fresh importation of slave, into the British West India Islands. The diffi culty of all the proprietors was to know what to do with their sl•.tves. They would be glad to get half tbe price of the cost of them, and a man must be insane who would at this time import slaves. He did, there fore, implore his Hon. Friend (Mr. Wilberforce), before be allowed this measure to go out to the West Indies charged with his malediction as tending to cherish the slave trade, to inform himself on the subject. He knew that he had the means within his power, and he begged him to employ them. His Hon. Friend was wrong if he conceived the planters and proprietors in the West Indies were ndt considerably distressed.— This measure was absolutely necessary to save them from ruin, at the same time that he was convinced that no measure could be more conducive to the abo lition of the slave trade. Mr.WILBERFORCE explained. He had not said that the West Indian Colonies were not in a distressed state ; he knew and he regretted that they were so. Mr. M A RRYATT thought it was quite clear that the measure under the consideration of the House was one which mainly tended to ameliorate the con dition of the slaves in the West Indian Colonies.— Everything which tended to put the owners of pro perty in a better state to enter into competition with the foreign merchants, went to better the state of the slaves, since they must stand and fall with their mas ters. At the same time it would have a direct in fluence in diminishing the foreign slave trade, which was fostered by those restrictive laws on our Colonies, which, disabling them from competing with foreign nations, made it the interest of the latter to populate the Colonies belonging to them with slaves. As a proof of the vast opening there was for an extended commerce emanating from the West Indian Colonies, he would only mention that he had that morning seen a list of 575 ships engaged in that branch of trade. As to the navigation, or any other interests, he must say that minor interests must give way to a system of great general good like this. There was one thing he thought had been left out of the plan of the Right lion. Gentleman (Mr. Robinson), which was a provi sion to permit the exportation of British goods from one West Indian Island to another. This was _a part of the system which certainly called for achange.— It frequently happened, in consequence of this prohi bition, that relief could not be afforded to a neigh bouring colony in the greatest distress, probably from some sudden visitation, to which they were so much exposed from the irregularities of the elements.— surely there ought to be no distinctions made between the Islands, the inhabitants of which ought all to be tonsidereil as one family. Mr. F. BUXTON contended, that as we had made a monopoly of the market of the West Indian Colo nies, we were not justifieelin admitting a competitor,as had been done of late, in suffering the importation of East Indian sugar. lie considered, however, that that question was not yet settled, as the Chancellor of the Exchequer had promised it should be referred to a Committee. With regard to that part of the question which concerned the slaves, he begged to observe, that the great principle by which they .should be go verned in legislating for them, was to make the ad scriplii glebte the foundation of all regulation. Ile did not know if the House was aware of the light in which a slave was held in the Colonies. It was none t.ther titan that of a chattel He- might be sold from ~- ..:~ • Planters upon . been - Work of emancipation, by establithiag as &principle the adscription to the soil. There'were slimy other branches of the subject he should wish to see fully considered. Ansa these were, tbaJedicial System and the Marria g e Ti c lations • but be would not at that time embarrass conside ration: of the question befolre them with these matters. Mr. HUSKISSON thought his Right Honourable Friend (Mr. Robinson) was misinterpreted, when be was represented as corning forward with a measure for the exclusive advantage of the planters and colo nists. In the speech be had made to the House, he discovered the most statesmanlike principles in the proposition of a measure for the benefit of this country and of mankind in general, and for the immediate relief of the colonies. Two objections had bees& raised to the measure—one was the Slave Trade, and he was sure his Honourable Friend, the Member for Bramber, would not suspect him of any wish to countenance that abominable traffic. It certainly was most unfortunate that that iniquitous trade was continued by foreign countries ; but he hoped his Ho. nourable Friend would not suppose that his Majesty's Government, in this measure, as well as all others, would neglect the consideration of the important in terests involved in that question. His Honcurable Friend would see that the direct operation of this measure would be to diminish the foreign Slave Trade. In the first place, whatever tended to benefit the master must be equally beneficial to the slave; besides that, by throwing open the foreign markets to the produce of our colonies, we shoals' destroy the trade of America with Cuba and the Brazils, so fer tile in the propagation of the Slave Trade. Not, only was this expedient in policy, but it was due in justice; for as we by our regulations had mainly contributed unintentionally to the over-population and over-pro ductioa of the West Indian Colonies, we were bound to find a remedy-for the evils consequent upon the surplus produce. The case of the East Indian sugar, wherein we deprive their colonies of their. accustomed demand, made a claim to a relaxation of restrictions. It had been the ancient, but mistaken policy of this country, to look at the West Indian Colonies as a means only of trading with Africa for slaves. • Justice and religion had dictated the cessation of this policy ; but the consequence of it was, the evils of over-po pulation he had mentioned. As we, therefore, had been the means of promoting this by bounties, treaties, and many sacrifices, it was incumbent on us now to consider the means of administering with the same hand relief. There were, no doubt, many other im portant matters to consider cemented with the sub ject as mentioned by the Hon. Member opposite (Mr. Buxton), but this was not the time. They might be of great interest, but when they were granting a boon to the colonies for the benefit also of the mother coun try, and the.slaves,.they could not consistently, with the interests of all parties admit of the delay which would accrue from a mixing up with it of questions very important, nay, delicate and difficult to settle. Mr. PLUMER congratulated the 1-louse on the disposition shewn to afford relief to the distressed co lonists. The Hon. Gentleman also quoted a letter received from some of the West India Islands, com plaining of great distress. Mr. EVANS thought that this was a favourable opportunity for demanding of the Colonial Legisla ture the regulation of the Slave Trade, when we were granting them this measure. Mr. ROBINSON said, the particular ports to be open to traders would be specified in the Bill, with power to the King in Council to extend the privilege; and that for the better security against illicit importa tion of slaves, those ports would be selected where there was an establishment of Custom-house officers. Mr. W. SMITH said, it was thefirst time he had heard it stated that we had cherished our West Indian Colonies in order to encourage the Slave Trade. He had always before thbught, that we had encouraged the African Slave Trade for the purpose of colonizing our West Indian possessions. Ile thought the pro petty of those Colonies was in a state of great de pression ; but he could not understand that there was any such hurry for the passing of this measure, that other important arrangements could not be considered and included in it. Ile would not, however, throw any impediment in the way. Mr. PHILLIPS said, he hoped that the considera tipn of no one or more individual interests of this country would be permitted to interfere with a mea sure which was consistent with the soundest princi ples of commercial policy and justice. He was con vinced, that by the operation of this measure a stop might be put to the continuance of the Slave Trade. Mr. niuGHT was of opinion that Canada ought' to have the advantage of the proposed measure. It was unwise to throw difficulties in the way of this measure, which was calculated to give a blow to the remains of the Slave Trade, andjay the progression of civilization to confer the highest-benefits on the Slaves of the West Indian Colonies—(Hear). • After a few words from Mr. Burreatwowrit, the Resolutions were agreed to. The House resumed, and Mr. BAOGDEN obtained leave to bring in the Bills ordered by the Committee. MISCELLANEOUS ESTIMATES. Mr. ARRUTHNOT moved that the House should resolve itself into a Committee of Supply. Mr. BENNET said, as it was then half-past nine, o'clock, and there was one subject of considerable , importance likely to be brought belOre them in the Estimates (the Ophthalmic Establishment, •an im mense volume respecting which he had lately read), he hoped the Right Hon. Gentleman would not press that vote till after the holidays. Mr. ARBUTHNOT consented to postpone it. The following grants were then moved and agreed to after a few remarks from Mr. IlumE, Mr. llswarr, and other Hon. Members : For Salaries to Officers of the Court of the Exchequer £7OOO For Salaries to the Commissioners of the insolvent Debtors' Court, Clerks, and continent Expenses 1,640 For Salaries granted to certain Professors of the Uni versities of Oxford, fur reading Lectures fu the pre sent Year - . - 953 For Expenses of the I of Lords and Commons 19,055 For Salaries and Alkwancts to the Officers of the !louses of Lords and rommons • - - 211,000 To defray extraordinary' Miura in the A T artnient of - limaseks. i t e.oo For maintaining and = 4. 101 For the usual Allowagto z oos.

In former times of peace half that sum, he believed, had been con sidered sufficient. He could not conceive for what it could be wanted. His opinion, however, was, that it could be desired for no good purpose. If the money were to be properly applied, Ministers need not be afraid of stating to the House how it was to be dis posed of. He was of opinion that £30,000 was too much, and he thought 15 or £20,000 was sufficient. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said, if the Hon. Gentleman wished to know what sums had been voted for Secret Service in former years, he could move for the account and no objection would be' made to printing it. If he wished Ministers to answer the question, how the Secret Service Money was to be applied? he must say it was an Irish proposition, as if the information called for were given, the grant in- question would be no longer for " secret services:" The money . granted for Secret Service, by Mr. Burke's Bill was disbursed by persons acting under the obligation , of an oath. He, of course, would not enter into any detailed explanation . ; but he had no hesitation in saying, that a considerable portion of the charge arose from services performed during the war, and was expended in small portiOns. He could not state the exact sum, but he believed about £24,000, was to meet expenses incurred during the war. Mr. HUME still thought the sum a great deal too much, and was of opinion there could be no harna l in putting the persons who received the pensions on ' the regular list. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said, that what the Hon. Gentleman had suggested could not very easily be done where the names of the parties must be concealed, and the services which they had per formed could not be stated. • He repeated the asser tion, that more than half the grant proposed was re quired on account of services performed during the , war. If the Hon. Gentleman wished to compare the ] present grant with former grants, any information he desired would be granted. Mr. HUME remarked it had come out last year that part of the secret service money was expended in proceedings against the late Queen on the Milan Commission. This was that which had never been contemplated when the sums so applied had been granted. What was so entrusted to Ministers might be misapplied, and therefore he considered the sum which had been moved for too large. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY thought the subject now touched upon might more naturally have been brought forward last year. If the Hon. Gentle man chose to raise a question on it, he should be pre pared to contend that the secret service money was most evidently applicable to the purpose which had been alluded to. The sums se granted were to be expended for the service of the country either at home or abroad. That which was distributed at borne as well as that which was disbursed abroad, was applied under the obligation of an oath. He would contend that it was a legitimate and proper application of the secret service money on what the Hon. Gentleman had made the subject of complaint, though afterwards it had been brought before the House in another shape, and paid by them as a pub lic charge when the service to which it had been ap plied was no longer secret. Mr. HOBHOUSE objected to the grant. It was last year but £25,009, and he thought some explana tion ought to be given of the circumstances which had made £40,000 necessary. It ought to be shewn how, in time of peace, so much was Wanted to bribe agents (for it came to that) to watch the proceedings ot foreign Powers. Our great name, and the great ' force kept up at our expense, ought to save us trom such a charge. T.ie authority ot Mr. Burke on this subject he held to be of little importance, as he thought he could quote from him opinions for and against' every line of politics that could be - porsued. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said, they bad not merely Mr. Burke's authority for the application of secret service money, but they had that of the law of the land. It was true that last year but £25,000 was taken for secret service, but that was because a large sum remained in hand from the grant of the preceding year. The grant was not expected to be the same every year. When the Hon. Gentleman assumed that the money thus called for could only be wanted for purposes of bribing in foreign parts, be could not corroborate what he had advanced, because he could not enter into the subject. ' Mr. HOBHOUSE did not mean to use the term bribery in the grossest sense of the word. It was, however, well known, that in dealing with foreign 'Powers it was necessary to use a silver spear. 'file Noble Marquis had, he believed, known this from experience, and had used that weapon with no small success. He thought Ministers ought to explain why so large a giant was called for ; and hoped that, un less they did so, his Honourable Nt lend would submit some cropusition to the House which would enable then) to come to a vote on it. Mr. ARBUTIINOT reminded the Committee that, last year, he'liad said he would take but a small vote for Secret Service, in consequence of their being a large sum remaining on hand from the former grant. In point of fact, the estimated sum for last year was 65,0001. instead of 40,0001.—The . Resolution w.ai put and carried without a division.

The Marquis of LONDONDIIRRY gase notice, that he should, on Wednesday, move that the House, at its rising on that day, should adjourn for a fortnight. Dr. •LUSIILNGTON brought in a irdi for consolidating dte Laws on the subject of the Nave Trade. Reid a first, and, or dered to be read a second time on the 19th instant. The other Orders were disposed of, and the House adjourned at One o'Clock. . ERUPTION . OF MOUNT YESUPIM NAPLES, MARCH a, 1824. Mount Vesuvius, which had been for several months in estate of total inaction, on Friday the 22d of February, ahewed signs of renewed vigour ; on the following night it was in very great activity, and on Sunday night (the 24th of February) the vo:cano exhibited a very grand eruption. A broad stream of lava de scended the cone, and seemed to turn off in an angle and run dowu the mountain towards Resina and Portici; the flames above the crater were lefty and continued; as unremitting dis charge of fiery masses, which were thrown up in the air to a great height, issued from the mouth, and the groans of the mountain were heard in Naples, like distant thunder. About ten o'clock on that evening, the view from the city was .particu. lady striking : the wide river of fire ran on in majestic slowness; innunserable pale torches were seen coasting itssides ' on which some bold and curious persons seemed every now and then to be treading ; the flames were reflected across the bay, and threw a strong glare on the buildings and on the faces of thousandt of spectators, who bad gathered on the Molo, Santa Lucia, and other open places, to gaze at the magnificent conflagration. On Mon day (25th February) the eruption was much less coo. siderable ; in the evening, the Princess of Partano, the King's wife, ascended to the hermitage of San Salvatore. On Tues• day, the 26th, loud rumbling noises were heard in Naples, at very short intervals, during all the day; the quantity of smoke .which issued from the volcano was so great, that the sun was quite discoloured; its reflex was. of a murky red tint, and the atmosphere was heavily clouded. Religious processions were made in the little towns at the foot of the mountain, which have so often suffered from their dangerous neighbour. Towards evening, as appearances promised a good night's work. we set off from Naples to view the operations nearer; the road to Re sina was covered with people going and returning, like a fair; when we reached the spot where strangers are on common oc casions surrounded by guides, and asses and mules, to conduct them up the mountain, we found that eto animals were to be procured, and it was with difficulty we could get a stupid old man for a Cicerone, who rendered us no other service than carry ing a torch. The ascent was thronged with people, some pub ing on eagerly to the objects of their curiosity, and others return ing and discussing what they had seen; far below San Saivatore,we saw the stream of fire rolling along a wide hollow, and approach ing the path by which we were going up : it was then, however, at a considerable distance, and its course was very slow. On reaching the hermitage we refreshed ourselves as well as the crowd there assembled could permit ; we then continued, and for shortness traversed the lava chiefly formed by the erup tion of January, 1821 ; we reached the foot of the cone just where the stream was descending; we found it about thirty feet wide; it was not liquid lava, but composed of ashes, ignited stones, and old masses of volcanic ejections, swept away in its course and. heated again : these lumps rolled over each other, producing a strange clinking noise; some of them were of very great size, and the whole stream, though descending a steep cone, moved but slowly. Beyond this principal stream, midway up the cone, was an opening, whence very large stones and other burning matter were continually thrust out; this mouth fed a scattered stream, beyond which was another narrow stream, proceeding (like the principal one) front the crater; they both united with the main body in the deep hollow below, and rolled on towards the toad which leads from Resina up to the hermi tage. The quintity of spectators standing by the sides of this burning river was astonishing: we, with a great many of the more adventurous, determined to ascend the cone ; we therefu:e passed a little to the left of the great stream, and began to scramble through the deep loose cinders and ultra which cover this part of the mountain, and renders it at all times a Most fa. tiguieg climb. A little path or track formerly existed, in which the guides had laid masses of lava to facilitate the mounting, but it was just in that line that the present eruption descended, and we were in consequence obliged to go up over the sand and cieders, it, which we stuck up to our knees, and at every three steps I sit one on an average. After a most breathing toil of an hour and a half, we found ourselves, with a few others, on the edge of the grand crater • hence the coup-d'ril was terrifically sublime; the flames rushe d out of the mouth, and threw themselves Le the air in a broad body, to the elevation of at least a hundred feet, whilst many of the fiery stones J ew up twice that height ; the Limes fell back into the mouth and then burst out again / as though impelled by a fresh impulse, like the blast of a bel lows; in the descent, some of the stones and lumps of cinder returned into the mouth, but the greater part fell outside of the flames, like the jets of a fountain. While we were standing on the exposed side of the crater, very intent in observation, all of a sudden the volcano gave a tremendous roar ; it was like the crash of a long line of artillery, and was instantly succeeded by such a discharge of stones as we had never before seen, at the same moment the wind, which was very high, gave an irregular gust, which directed a good part of the stones towards r" we were posted t our situation was fur a minute or two s, riluus, but there was no shelter near, aid we stood still, look, at the descending shower which fell around us ;. we, however, happily sustained no other injury than a short alarm, and some ashes dashed in our faces by stones which fell near us. Two or three Gentlemen who were ascending ' us, were not quite so fortunate, for many of outside of the ridge, tolled down the side wit: loosening and carrying with them lumps of cold of which struck those persons on the legs with ere heady precipitated one of them headlong to the fix After this we thought we had seen enough, and ' down: the descent -is as easy as the ascent la diifict h dens and ashes slide away beneath the feet ; nothing but to step out (the quicker the better) to keep one s and to avoid the fixed or large stones and pieces were not more than ten Mldutes in reaching'` it had taken us an hour and a halt to meow. we were struck with the strange appearance of the • { ~ ' .11 t, r ti v . ; r • . i Il i, • , $ . i 1 , , I I i' , .. . . . that Mast, dfaT raised an I the. ~haan Isis . him birth, and which bight be ' their inaguattimity, huall' elidearen to !Obeli.: of theisearesi kindred- a patron.
