It would, have better become him profesfel *Oat the conduct of the populace, as that.of the troops, many of whom had been gerQuay' wounded on that day. A Bill had Brought in, in 1734, to limit in this case the prero. gative of ie Crown, which * Bal had been scouted ' the Commons of that day. If the troops were ' made amenable to others than the Officers whose command they were; all military subordination would be at an end. Ministers would have failed in their duty to the Crown, had they not advised the dismissal of the Hon. Gentleman. Mr. CALVERT explained. Sir R.• WILSON said, that he bad stated to Sir , Rotten Baker that the Blues were popular, and that that was fortunate. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY understood the Hon. and gallant Gentleman had made these ob servations in presence of the people. Mr. LAMBTON said, in explanation, that what he stated was, that an Officer in the Army could no more be deprived of his commission, than a freehoder of hismperty. SirJOHN NEWPORT said, that the Noble Lord seemed to feel sore on the affairi of Ireland, and hence had arisen tke taunts of the Noble Lord. The vote he should give on this occasion would depend on this question, whether the controul over the Army was to rest with the Crown or the Parliament? .If o ie Officer could appeal to the House, so might every other, and that would lead to a communication be tween the leading Members of that House and the Army. He must, therefore, with much regret, vote against the production of the papers moved for, though he thought the exercise of the power of the Crown in this case harsh and unadvised. Mr. HOME could mail) , to the correctness of the statement made by his Hon. Friend. The Noble Lord had alluded to the funeral of her Majesty, though in the case of any other Member he would have depre cated any such allusions. He (Mr. Hume) would keep the Army under the regulations of the Mutiny Act. That Act distinctly stated that a Military Of ficer was to be tried by a Court Martial. The conduct of Ministers was, therefore, illegal bath in the present and every similar instance. The object of the inter e of his gallant Fa fend had been to stop the ef fusion of human blood. He denied that any such power as had been exercised was any part of the pre rogative of the Crown. The speech of the Noble Marquis was an insult to the House. He was sorry that ti:e Nobl.: Lord had left the House —(A laugh). But he had insulted the House when he asked it if they would have justice administered there as at the Old Isai:ey ? When he heard the soldiers were com tn:.ting inurde , he had said—o F.r GOD'S sake, Sir Robe' t, don't let us go dieter (Loud and continued lavluer). It ‘‘a, Ministers that had raised the spirit o, which the Noble Lord complained, by their tie it n cut of the Queen, and which had been continued I.:squid the grave. If there were a Reformed House oZ Pa r liament, Ministers would have to answer for tin ir c-nduct at the bar of the House. Mr. HORACE TWISS observed, that the Hon. C..ntlenien opposite agreed but in one point, which w..;, that the power alluded to ought to be exercised by a Court-Martial. In his opinion, the prerogative o i e own was the safeguard of the Constitution, a rd though the iiou-.e :::.;ht advise the King in other matter-, they had no right to intertc7e tious of military law. It had been said, that Minis ters were not responsible ; but he would say, that they were both responsible and accountable, ex cept in matters relating to the A: my, and in these they Were neither responsible nor accountable. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT said, that the N , hle Lord would not agree to the motion, as, if agreed to, inquiry must succeed. The Noble Lord had ad verted to a number of topics that had no bearing on the caw. Upon the statement of the No(.le Lord, the House w as bound to agree to the motion, unle.s it meant to abandon wholly the redress of the grievances of the People If the Army were to be the slaves of istetial caprice, the consequences would be most dreadful. When the At my was accused of shedding the blood of the People (he would not say whether necessarily or not), that seemed to him but little cal culated to excite the merriment displayed by the Noble Lord. The Noble Marquis had talked that evening of the discipline of the British Army, as if that was the cause of all the glories which it had achieve!. Now the cause was notoriously different, add was one that never operated upon the soldiers of Continental Powers. It was because he knew that be was riot the slave of caprice—it was because he Liew if he did his duty, his superiors had no right to tyrannize over him—it was because he had a feeling of personal freedom about him—it was because he hoped to return to his country in possession of the same civil sights as those whom he had left there be hind him, that the feelings of the English soldier arose on the day of battle to that enthusiastic pitch of valour, which led him, through blood and death, to honour and victory. But even supposing that the discipline of ill Army was so all-important as it had been represented. it was not necessary to the existence of that discipline that the Crown should possess that power which it had exercised with regard to his Honourable and gallant Friend.— It was a power that none of the Continental despots possessed. The King of Prussia could not dismiss a single officer without a Court-martial. Bonaparte, in the zenith of his glory, when he was master of the whole of Europe, never dared to exercise so de testable and tyrannical a power as Ministers had crier,- cisest--(llear, hear)—and therefore it was utterly absurd to say that this arbitrary and discretionary power, which had never been exercised by two mili- Lary autocrats, was necessary to the discipline of an army. The whole of the political life of the Noble Lord had been identified with innovations on the Constitution of his country. He had first destroyed the liberties of his own country, and was now at tempting to play the same game here!—(Hear, hear). With regard to the question then before them, if they valued the portion of character which was still left to them—if they had any desire to act consistently with the principle of their ancestors—it they did not wish to make the House of Commons a mere Court for registering the arbitrary decrees of a despotic Ministry, and the mere machine for extracting money from the pockets of an impoverished People, they would hiquire into this case, which had ever y appear. ante of harshness and injustice about it..-(Chsers). reasons her Majesty was alive, he had worn thit star in bel presence, and sh e was pleased that he had done so; because it was of a Prussian Order, and had been worn both by her father and brother—(Hear, hear). 'Be therefore wore it on the day of her funeral as a tribute to her memory. In conclusion he would say, that he should never cease to demand redress until be obtained it ; and till then, he must ever stigma.; the the Ministers who had deprived him of his rank, -as a set of lawless and vindictive oppressors! (Cheers). Mr. BROUGHAM gave the most ample corr..bo ration to all the statements of his gallant Friend. An hour after Sir R. Wilson passed Kensington Church, there was no attempt sit obstruction to the funeral. Dr. LUSHINGTQN - merely lose to confirm, so far as his knowledge went, the statement Of his gallant Friend, What he could say was, that, after his own coach had passed through Cumberland-gate, he for the first time heard the firing. It naturally attracted his attention, though he had no idea that it was fit ing with ball. Where he was at that moment, there weir certainly no stones thrown : he would not say that none were thrown, but he certainly did not see any. Mr. ELLICE merely rose to confirm the statement of his gallant Friend's journey from France. The only night they slept on the road was at Canterbury, and his gallant Fi iend did not leave him until four or five o'cli,ck in the evening of the day previous to the fu neral. h was, therefore, quite impossible that he could have been a party to any of the proceedings which had been alleged against him. Colonel CAVENDISH was sorry that his Hon. Friend (Mr. Lansbton) should call the regiment with which he was connected " murderers"—(Hear, hear) —and he was the more particularly surprised at such an imputation, given on the authority of perjured witnesses, who were ready to swear anything upon that investigation—( Hear, hear):. Having made that remark, he should leave the House to dispose of the question ; as, having been connected. with the he felt it would be indelicate for him to interfere. Dlr. LAMBTON, in esplatiaziun, said, di:it his statement wa. , that murder had been committed on th:tt day. Lord I.: X BRIDGE said that the lion. Gentleman bid iyi.ken on the authority of an luquvst, the evidence adduccd at which ought not to be believed. Mr. CALVERT rose amidst loud cries of " gIICStiJII !" which rendered him inaudible. The House then divided, and the numbers were— For the Modem, 97 I Against it, 179 I :Majority, 10f , .

The Lisbon journal.i, which are to tire sth instant, contain an account of the celebration of the Anniversary of the Installation of the Cortes on the 28th tilt. The Cortes were still occupied in discussing the Constitution. The Madrid papers are to the lst instant. In the Sitting of the Cortes, on the 50th ult. the debate on the opinion of the Committee relative to the affairs of the Colonies was continued. The SECRETARY of the Counties stated, that the Government approved of the opinion of the Com mittee, only with the addition of a clause that the measure proposed was not to be understood as any thing but a measure of pacification. After some de bate, this addition made by the Government, was re ferred to the Committee. Accounts from Cadiz, of the r 2 d ult. state, that Brigadier-Gen. Don .loAQtriar EscAnto had that day assumed the political government of the province to the entire satisfaction of the inhabitants, who had be come anxious for tranquillity. It is stated from St. Sebastians that seven of the insurgent leaders had been taken. The French Papers of Monday possess little inte rest. A new conspiracy k said to have been disco vered at Nantes: three alicers were arrested, and some subalterns had fled. The Avgsburg G'azdie, in news from the Morea to the middle of December, says, that the Greek Con gress, sitting at Argos, was occupied in the general organization of the Peninsula, which has been divided into twenty-four districts. It is said that the Con gress has dispatched Prince CANTACUEENK to Peters burgh, to solicit the support of the Emperor ALEX ANDER; and several of the German Papers state that the Pi ince has received permission from the Russian Government to proceed to the capital. These Parers contain a variety of contradictory conjectures re specting the negotiations between Russia and Turkey, but a private letter from Petersburgh asserts, that so far from the prospect of the continuance of peace be tween Russia and the Porte becoming more favour able, there 1% every appearance of war. From the Hamburg): Papers, which are to the 9th inst. we make the fullowing extracts : ST. PETF.RSBUIICH, JANUARY 23. We know nothing here of an Ukase ordering the abolition of the Lodges of the Freemasons, which hare hitherto been under the prote:tion of our mild Government. We have the following authentic accounts from the Turkish frontiers : The Servian Deputies were still in arrest at Con stantinople, and Servia itself is said to be in general insurrection against the TU3 ks. The Pacha has had several of the principal Servian Chiefs executed, and is said to have himself fallen a sacrifice to a furious insurrection of the people. • The heroic Captain Jordaki is really in safety ;he escaped to this side of the Pruth, but all his brave companions have been sacrificed in the most barba rous manner at Constantinople. Up to this moment not the slightest change has taken place in our relations with the Porte. The pas sage of couriers to and from the army on the Pruth is very frequent. Nothing positive is hitherto known of any official declaration either of the Porte or of the mediating Powers, in reply to the ultimatum of our Court. . . . ... . . • • . . , . . . . . o . - • ... •Sir ROBERT WILSONi , IstwiePVcTihich I 1144 OM weltioi r Robert bad beef( me out by Ms. ; 4 ,.. 4 . . • Ap i fims 41- ~...„ *tame did to have port which he il a d mei, ~ ~;•• ! . fip g • I,! geik or h isoceoreo a, as well should be abusing the indul. * . „if ,st "at cen den- pted to reply at any 4,11 - iad been belief that the Noble Lord (F . * . ; ~. . & k ap/va lid All the charges obs . essAtfini hof Ids antagonists e: 'se wer°. j himself in language which. he - .

A report prevailed yesterday At ,re- of the 'Change, that a plan was going to be adopted by Government, for the ::„!ief of the Agriculturists, to buy up a great crantity of Corn, which seas to be L2used, and for which Exchequer Hills would be Issued. The above systtnt may, in some cligree, relieve the Farmers, but will add to the distress of the lower class of society, by raising the price of Bread. ELEVEN O'CLOCK.

In a speech of considerable length he gave " a plain unvarnished tale" of the whole of his conduct on the day of her late MAJESTY'S funeral, and confident that he had done his duty, both as a man and a soldier, on that melancholy occasion, he called on the House to afford him that protection and redress to which he was entitled. The gallant Ge_ neral demanded inquiry into his conduct, and there., fore moved—" That Copies of the Correspondence that had passed between himself and Lord SIDSIOUTH, l on the subject of his dismissal, should be laid b e f ore ,the House." Lord PALMERSTON and the Marquis of LONDON. DEKILY replied to Sir ROBERT, and, entrenching themselves behind the plea of prerogatiVe, did not contradict the fait, in his statement. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, Mr. 11111411, and Mr. BENNET, supported the gallant General, and deprecated in strong terms the dismissal of an Officer from a high tank in the Army, which he had obtained by long and faithful se, vices, ss ithout assigning a single reason for such a measure. From the principles on which the Minis ters called for the support of their friends, and on JASSY, JANCATIY .We have most unexpectedly received news that Mince Michael Suzy), late Hospodar of Moldavia, who, since his flight from this city, where he had taken an active part in favour of the insurgent Greeks, had resided at Kischanof, the capital of Bessarabia, has suddenly received orders to leave the dominions of the Emperor of Russia ; and, in fact, left that place on the night of the 6th instant. %Ve do not know whether he is gone : at the same time we hear that several of the former Hetarist Chiefs, Pendedeka, Skufa, Bassli, Scc. are arrested, and sent to different fortresses. AU the Greek, Moldavian, Wallachia% and other fugitives (supposed to be 6000 or 7000 in number), who had resided along the Pruth and in Bessarabia, had received orders from St. Pe. tersburgh speedily to leave dust province, and to remove into the interior of the Russian Empire. COPENHAGEN, FEBRUARY 2. Last year there passed the Sound, from the North Sea, 4600 ships, of which 1393 were English ; and from the Baltic, 4577, of which 1426 were English.
