were eiven. Those who woe fond of spew *ould possibly remain to be gratified. It would seem ; how- ever. no information even on this Point was to be ex. posted. You were only told--" , Go to the Lottery Otlices arid give your ,olinea ibr a Ticket ;" to be s..re you received a Programme, and, by the way, if' the compositioo of the fire-worki was not more rt.- feet thin that of the Programme, the public rtpecta tion would be miserably deceived. (Hear and . a iruz.4.) Bat when was it to take place ? The warn rather was come, every thing seemed propi. tious for the event, but spectators. (A laugh.) Mr. WYNNE really tit-tight those' works should he curtailed before the Session terminated. It the new Palace was to go on, and if the public Park was to be curtailed for its use, it would be time for the House to interpose, by an Address to the Resent epon the subject. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQU E R repeated that he was ignorant of any such intention as the curtailment alluded to. Mr. WHITBREAD Well, when will the fire works go off ?" (Loud laughter. ) Here the conversation chopped, by Lord C AS TLEREAGH's moving the third reading of the Princess of Wales's Annuity Bill. Mr. WHITBREAD proposed an amendment in the preamble, which was negatived, and the Bill read • a third time arid passed. Sir SAMUEL ROMILLY moved the considera tion of the Lords' Amendments in the Corruption of Blood Bill, which were agreed to; also those in the alteration eif the punishment for High Treason, to, which the Lords added these words—.o and after being dead, the body to be divided into four oirarters." Sir Samuel took that opportunity of repeating his abhorrenci, of the shocking spectatle which she law coutemplated in the punishment tor High Treason, and though he did not concur in the proposed amend . knew, yet he would not object to, the Bill, as it con tained other items of importance. Both Bills were then read a third time and passed. • . Mr. AR BU I'HNO I' presented „Returns of the Produce of the Customs and Excise during the last year. Mr. LOCKHART gave notice, that, to-morrow, he would move. for an Address to the Prince Regent, praying that he would be pleased to order a grant of a sum ne4 exceeding at 2,400 to be paid to the High Bailiff of Westminster, as a remuneration for the ex penses he had incurred by 'ate erection of a hustings. Mr. BA N KES objected to this grant, on the ground of the Committee of Supply being closed ; it should, therefore, be deferred until next session. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER wa s i n favour of the proposed remuneration. • Mr. LOCKHART-was not aware that the Strp • sly was closed...for his own put, he was ready a tort-. night ago. , Sir F. BURDETT stated; lie had claims en the Committee of Supply on the part of Mr. Mallinson, who had invented the Life-preserver, the merits .of which were fully appreciated by the keport of aCom rnittee up stairs. Witha view of shewing the many accidents which this invention was intended to pre vent, hi would move. that Returns be made of the itumber of lives lost by the upsetting of boats since the Committee to which be alluded had made their Re von. • The SPEAKER observed, that such a motion worth:llse impracticable, holm the impossibility of *WV. big the notices upon the proeer persiats. Mr. WHITBREAD said, the the Hon. Baronet imam the boats of ships of war, which of course would render the motion practicable in its execution at tile Admiralty. He also took occasion to praise the in vention of Mr. Mallinson; the merits of which he had occasion to appreciate as Chairman of the Committee which investigated it. WoRWEGIAN DIFUTIES. Mr: WHITBREAD ruse to ask the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite, it th e Allen Act had been put n execution for the removal from this country of cer tain perions who had entered it from Norway, with autlito ity to arrange the existing difficulties which pre wailed relative to that country ? Those Gentlemen, it was said, landed in Scotland for this purpose ; but Were prevented from the exercise of their pacific mis sion by the intervention of the Alien Act. Was this the fact? Mr. Hr ADDINGTON, in reply, stated, that cer ' twin unaccredited Norwegians had entered this coun try; but he was not aware that any order had been issued fer their removal therefrom. It was, however, a fact, that those persons were not permitted to re - main in London, and were disallowed the permission of retraining therein. • Mr. WHITBREAD —" Have any stepsbeen taken 'to remove them out of the country ?" Mr. H. ADDINGTON—" No steps have been t a kei l for that purpo,e." Mr. WHITBREAD declared this proceeding to be a gross and flagrant abuse of the authority of the Alien Act. There could be no more gross abuse of its provisions than, under the pretence of the danger which this Act was to prevent, to remove the persons to whom he alluded. He desired to know, whether the step which had been taken was under the autho tity of the War AliewAct which had expired, and which was succeedi;d, he understood, by a Peace Alien Bill that had passed. on Saturday, and against which he would have loudly raised his name, from the facility which it afforded to the commission of gross injustice. Mr. H. ADDINGTON stated, that the War Alien Bill was still in existence. Mr. ‘VIIITBREAD denied that in time of peace the Legislatureever meant it shouldkave been brought into operation—no danger was to be now appre hended by sojourners in the country. This exercise of the alien Act was nothing less than a gross per ver.ion of its use for political purposes. ( Hear, hear.) Mr. WYNNE was of a similar opinion. The Report of the Post How linty 1141 was resolved, some clause+ were added which wish:sated s conversation between Mr. M 110 3601 0, Sir C.

Their contents are of more than usual interest both with respect to theinternal state of France and the affairs of the Continent. On the 22d inst. Baron Louts, the French Finance Minister, presented the Budget for the year to the Chamber of Deputies : it occupies one half of the Monitzur of the 234 and two full Supplements, or about twenty columns. It is impossible for us to find room for this document, nor would it be intelli gible to an English Reader : it affords a deplorable picture of the waste and extravagance in the public expenditure for the few months of 1814 that the reign of BONAPARTE continued : this, of course, has been grtatly checked: The Aystem of taxations cannot be changed this year, the demands upon the revenue being so great. Ameliorations are promised, how iver, 6 1815, when the current expences will be re .difced to (318 millions. The Km had often, doling his exile, felt the oppressions under which his people iaboured from the severity of the taxation imposed by the Usurper, and announced that he would re- move them on his reform to France. Imperious cir cumstances, however, compel his Majesty to continue 'I them fur a few months longer. A great drawback on the Finances of France has arisen from the system of allowing arrears to accumulate. The Creditors of this description are to have Treasury Bills, bearing' eight per cent. and within three years it is expected ', they will be 'mid off by three instalments. The Report concludes by an eulogium upon the English character, observing, that while the public debt of this country daily increased the public credit increased also. Tne very same causes injured the public credit of France. After the Report was read, a Member of the Cham ber of Deputies, M. FORNIER SAINT-LARY, after a high compliment to the private character of the King, moved, that his Majesty be humbly requested to lay before the Chamber a statement of the debts con tracted by him in foreign countries, with a view to their payment by the nation.—The motion was re ceived with acclamations, and would have been in stantly carried, but for the irregularity 'in form, in voting it so promptly. It was put off until the '2sth instant, when it was to be again taken into conside ration. The Hall of the Deputies, on the above occasion, was crowded to excess, and several Ladies of dis. tinction were seated among the Members. An alarm has been excited in Germany, but we trust without foundation, on the subject of anew war, in which the contending parties are Austria on the one hand, and Prussia and Russia on the other. —The subject of dispute is the dismemberment of Saxony : perhaps the people of that country will be the best umpires ; they have shewn no disposition that we know of to renew their oaths of allegiance to BONAPARTeS last and most zealous ally, the King of SAXONY ; and if Austria' insists upon it, Saxony, we apprehend, must first be conquered. The case would be different if the people manifested their de sire to continue an independent State ; and sure we are, that neither England, Russia, nor Prussia would sanction any violence against their wishes. As the case at present stands, the balance of right and jus tice is against Austria, but we have no fears that any appeal to arms will be made. Poor MURAT, Bonaparte's King of Naples, seems I to stand like a solitary nine-pin in the ci-devant NA ros.soN dynasty. He is now most woefully beset by Trowels dottiestie;—foreign levy ! —The Algerines infest his shores with a numerous and powerful fleet of Corsairs, and in Calabria dis urbances have been excited against him, which his Gazetteer most studiously strives to lessen in impor tance. 'All who oppose him are brigands, disbanded soldiers,, and malcontents. This was the language of BONAPARTE respecting the Spanish, the Dutch, the German, and even the French insurgents, when they called out for their legitimate Sovereigns. • An article Irom Norway keeps up the story of a marriage between the Princess CHARLOTTE of WALES and the aoi•diaant King of Norway, Prince CHRISTIAN. AUGSI3URG, JULY 1 S. Letters have been received from Vienna of the 6th and 7th instant, by no means tranquillizing in their nature. It is said that serious disputes have arisen between Austria on the one .hand, and Russia and Prussia on the other. Prussia insists keenly that Saxony shall be dismembered—that a great portion of that kingdom shall be incorporated with the Prus sian States, and that the remainder shall be parcelled out in establishments for the son of the Ex-King of Sweden, Gustavus Adolphus IV. and other unfortu nate Princes. It is added, that Russia supports Prussia in all her demands, but Austria violently opposes tbe dismem berment of Saxony, pleading her ties of relationship, friendship, and interest, with the reigoing Saxon fa mily. We are further assured, that negotiations on this subject are opened between the three Powers ; in the mean time, uncertain of their results. Russia is sending toward to the Austrian frontiers all the Rus sian reserves which kre in Poland t and on the whet hand, Austria Lai °Mired that all her armies $ll.l continue upon the war tooting, thud the definitive ar ratitgetncnt Of all the politic 1 affAirs of Germany.— A. new war is thereftae conideted As 11113VOIChtbie, it England doe,* not inn.' pose ; and these (cars considerably influenced the course _sc.,..ange 1i Vienna. NAPLES, JULY g. An Algerine Fquadron, consisting of roversl ships of war, is at this moment infesting our shines! These Corsairs do not content themselves with giv ing chace• to our national ships, but attack indiscri• minately all the flags of the Powers in alliance with his Majesty. On the 22d of hire, they took, in the vicinity of Brindes, an Austrian ship, laden with oil. The King, anxious to repress the audacity of these enemies of Christianity, and to protect, at the same time, the commerce of his subjects and of his Allies, has ordered the immediate equipment of 4 squadr:,n, which is about to put ti sea, to clear cur slwres fiot-► these pirates. The free corps which had been formed in Sicily having been dissolved, some indivi.luals belonging to it'have 14n:lei on the frontiers of Calabria, and et ckted disorders ; but the itoliabitants soon tc,rced thiari .to renounce their culpable proj•cts. His Idajesty pardoned those who surrendAed vo:unt.trily, and the remainder have returned home. As to those who kept possession of the country, they have been taken with arms iu their hands, and will be punished with the utmost severity. ROME, JULY O. All the Cardinals were present at the grznd Mass celebrated on the festival of St. Peter and St. Paul, with the exception of Cardinal Maury. RAVENNA, JULY 8. An epidemic disorder has broken out in Corsica, and it has spread to the adjacent Island of Capriija. Several of the inhabitants die daily. The Magistracy of Trieste have taken measures to prevent the intro duction of this disease, and similar measures have been practised here. BRUSSELLS, JULY 19. All the Prussian troops, except the sick, have quitted the Low Countries. We hope soon to see here a Prince who is destined to have great influence over our fate. Most anxiously do we desire to finish the Provisional Government. I)unng,his last stay at Paris, the King of Prussia had frequent interviews with Louis XVIII. : it is generally thought that the presence of this great per soilage in that Capital could not have been for to' new negotiations which we are a s sured are now occu pying the Cabinet of the Thuillelies negoCiations which, although covered with an impenetrable veil of secrecy, must be of the highest importance. FRONTIERS OF NORWAY, JUNE. 28. We have still no accounts of what is passing at Christiana, but the military preparations of Sweden, and the departure of the Prince Royal for the army, seem to indicate that things ate far from being settled. The report continues to gain ground, that Prince Christian has demanded in marriage the Princess Charlotte of Wales, and that he has sent his portrait to London with this view. PARIS, JULY 22. By order of the Duc de Berri a notice has been affixed to the outer door of the Pavilion Marian, bearing that in future the perrhissions to wear the de. coration of the Lilly, will be sent to the persons ap plying, on petitions being presented only, and not personally as heretofore. A grand dinner, followed by a Ball, is to be given in the Hotel de Vale by the Mayor and Citiznis of Paris to his Majesty and the Royal Family : the fes tival of St. Louis has been graciously appointed by his Majesty fur the day of entertainment, and pre parations on a grand scale have commenced. Mr. Hope, the rich Dutch Banker, who had fled to England with his property, arrived at Calais on the 19th, on his return to Amsterdam. LISBON, JULY 2. A vessel which arrived a; Nantz, from Lisbon, brings intelligence, that two Algerine frigates and two zebecs had passed the Streights, to bluck up the Tagus against all Portuguese, Hanseatic, Prussian, and Danish vessels. This will throw great difficulties in the way of the intercourse with Portugal. A Dutch Mail has also arrived. The following are extracts from the Papers : •' HAGUE, JULY 22. " The Hereditary Prince, who has just been ap pointed Lieutenant-General in the• English sei vice, set off yesterday morning for Brussels to assume the command of all the Allied Troops in Belgium."

This is not the moment when the States Cull directly apply to the improvement of the finances ; they must first have time to secure Peace and put the arms out of their hands."
