-477 .-- ~, . ' the Secretary Secretary of the Admiralty, and the Ills Sligobw hand are trwidos on t his occasion several instances of dollar 111111 cases where superamesedea was Improperly He OSA the attention of his Majesty's Tdialsters to ease of a ade? Clerk in the Tower, who in 1796 received 400 i. a-year. In lasi be was reduced to half-pay, and riceited SOOL s-year. Looking at the pensions to widows of Olken. lit had posed to *ippon some were allowed remises which their libations did not war rant. A Lady, whose use he did sot wish to magnums, was put down as the orphan sista of an 011icer who died, and be was told she expected to log is possmlllifill of 10,0901. yet she received a pension of 100 i. per rinser Ail those eases ought to be revised, in order that the deserving akma might receive benefit. A saving might be made by striking or those cases which did not appear worthy the allowance of pensions. Mr. WARD said, if the facts stated by the Hon. Gentleman were correct, and dee was • Lady who was in the receipt of ten thousand pounds—(Here Mr. Hume exclaimed— No! no ! I said she expected to been possession of that sum"). The Hon. Gentleman, in continua/lea, observed, that they could sot leave the Lady to starve on expectancy. When the fact was made out that she received the sum mentioted, she would no doubt voluntarily relinquish the pension. He knew nothing of the fact stated by the Ilion. Gentleman. Many of the objes lions of the Hon. Member were founded upon _old stodge. He was not to answer for the sin e of former boards. In one in stance they bad been charged with the offences of Lord Towns end, of twenty y e ars standing. James Bachelor , w ho was the object of the Hon. Member's observations, had been a clerk at Sheerness, and was put on half-pay to be restored to full pay, w hen • his services were again required in that Yard. He was prepared to answer all charges against the present B eard , but could not be expected to account for what the Hon. Gentleman might consider the sins and jobs of old Boards. Mr. MABERLY complained that new officers had been appointed to the amount of £60,000 per annum. In case his Majesty's Government had turned to the Superannuation List, they would have found persons glad to fill the appointments for the purpose of getting full pay. Mr. WA RD said, the general rule was to look over the half pay list whenever a new appointment was to be made. After some further conversation between Mr. blast's's, Mr. Wawa, Mr. W. Swim and Mr. Hens, respecting the number of new appointments, the Estimate was voted. The sum of six thousand pounds was also voted for a similar object in Ireland. The House then resumed, the Caen-sum reported progress, and the Report was ordered to be received to-morrow. Dr. PIIILLIMOItE brought in his Bill to amend certain provldons of the ~6th of Geo. IL for the purpose of preventing Clandestine Marriages. The Bill was read the fust time, and ordered to be read a se ford time on Wednesday. The Ordets of the Day were disposed of, and the House Ad journed at Half past Twelve o'Clock. E EVENING STA R. LONDON. THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1522. TIIE FUNDS. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The whole of this morning there has been but little business doing, and Money remains very• scarce. Consols are 801 i for the Account, a►.d for Money 801. _ _ FOREIGN MARKET-ROYAL EXCHANGE. The Spanish Bonds are lower In price this morning, owing to the Alley Jobbers who crowd the Royal Exchange, and take a quarter per cent. profit, which does material injury to the buns pe holders u.

Neat Saturday being Ac cot:Et day for Old Spanish Bonds, it is understood that a very I.,:ze nunibur are to be delivered at .18 and .59, which makes a ditikrence of 10 per cent. on each Bond of 100 dollars.

GEORGE CANNING Gover nor General of India. The appointment awaits the sanction of the lino, which it will no doubt receive ; since, if report is true, his MAJESTY had rather ba nish him, as Governor General of India, than retain him as a Privy Councillor at home. We regret that our limits compel us to give so brief an account of the Public Meeting of the county of Salop, which will be found in this day's Paper. Although there was nothing in the slightest degree objectionable in the Requisition for calling the Meet ing, yet the High Sheriff refused to accede to it ; and it was held under the sanction of the Chief Magis trate. An attempt was made to acli. , urn the Meet ing, because, forsooth, certain Noblemen and Gentle men of the county had not obeyed the call to attend it, —The Meeting, the first of the kind, we believe, held in Shropshire for many years, was most numerous and respectable, and the proceedings were such as did them infinite credit. Leaving all speculative points out of the question, they call on Ministers for economy and retrenchment in every branch of the' public expenditure. To what extent this would afford relief is not the question, since it is one of the first steps towards it that ought to be taken. The French Papers of Monday have been received. The following are extracts: PARIS, MARCH 25. Yesterday the King, after hearing Mass in his apartments, received the compliments of the Princes, the great Officers of State, of all the Ministers, and several Marshals. Among the persons present were, the Chancellor, Prince Talleyrand, the Prince of Cas telcicala, Ambassador from the King of Naples, the Papal Nuncio, the Duke de Cazes, and the Duke de ltichelieu. It is expected that the School of Cavalry at San slur is broken up, and that General Gentil St. Al phonse, who commanded it, retires. A letter from Bayonne says, a report is in circula tion'there that a new troop of insurgents has bees P' , • • . • Aped in Nonni, end that aloft IMO'sues Wigs appeared new Row* Geoirral Lopes WSW to have marched to reduce those insurgents. According to news from Greece,- wiles on the 16tH of March, . the Congress of the . Peloponnesus has resolved that Representatives shaU be sent to the different Courts of Europe to obtain * recognition of the independenesof Greece. Men dis tinguished by their talents and their patriotism will be chosen to fill these important finctions. At a late hour this forenoon we received a Spanish Mail, bringing Madrid Papers to the 15th instant. — The following are extracts : MADRID, MARCH 14. It seems that his Majesty has accepted the resigna tion of the Marquis de Castelac, of his place of Ca lonel of the 2d Regiment of the Guards. As the malevolent endeavour to disfigure the most trifling events, to make it appear that the public tran quillity of the Capital has been disturbed, we think it our duty to say, that the events of the two last even ings have been merely the effect of a quatrel among some soldiers, in which the people have not taken the smallest part. • The Captain-General having learned that some sol diers had collected near the Puente de Toledo, armed with sticks, went to the spot, and found they did not exceed thirty, and he having ordered them to retire to their quirters and arrested some, the remainder obeyed the order with the greatest cheerfulness.- These occurrences did not in the least disturb the public tranquillity, and as they happened without the gates, they were not perceived in the city. The Authorities have taken the most active mea sures to prevent the slightest disorder; the concilia tory means which they have adopted having had the best effect. In short, it is certain that perfect tran quillity prevails in Madrid and the environs. No further mention is made of any disturbance in the Papers of the 13th and 14th. New Orleans Papers have arrived this morning to the 14th February. The following extract will shew that the efforts made by the American Government have been attended with success in annihilating the hordes of pirates so long infestirg the West India Seas: " [Aired States schooner Porpoise, off the North Coast of Cuba, Jan. 29, 1822. " DTA R 'Sta—Another opportunity affords again an occasion of addressing you. I yesterday captured and destroyed four more piratical vessels, and made six prisoners. I have also, since I last communicated with you, burnt two of the principal depots, containing stores, materials, &c. and two new vessels on the stocks. I believe I have pretty well cleared this part of the coast, and ant now proceeding with my tendet off Matan zas, where I understand some depredations have been committed. " I am, dear Sir, yours, respectfully, (Signed) " J.tS. nA MA G F-" Advices from Port-au-Prince, to the 19th of Ja nuary, state, that President BOYER having urged to the inhabitants of the Spanish part of St. Domingo, that the integrity of the empire of Ha) ti required their submission, and by dint of persuasion and threats had succeeded in obtaining the adhesion of St. Jago, St. Dgmingo, Porto Plata, and the other Spanish pla:e,. About ten o'clock last night his MAJESTY arrived at his Palace in P4ll Mall, from Brighton. Yesterday a Cow t of Directors was held at the East India House, when the Right Hon. GEORGE CAN ING was appointed Gover nor. G enei al of Bengal. The Duke of MONTROSE entertained a distinguished party, yesterday, at his house in Grosvenor-square. Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE is nose on an excursion to the North, for the purpose of engaging pet formers for Covent-Garden Theatre, to fill up the vacancies that will occur at the end f the present season. The Argyll Rooms were on Saturday evening at tended by a numerous and fashionable company, to hear Mr. PUTNAM (for the first time in London), re cite a selection of Pieces from different eminent writers. He equally excels in the pathetic and co mic; and was particularly happy in Southey's af fecting tale of " Mary, the Maid of the Inn,' and Wesley's Pig ;" in the former, he gained the well earned tribute of a tear; and in the latter, the smiles and genuine applause of a delighted audience. We understand that he is about to repeat it, and trust that an enlightened Public will not let such merit go unrewarded. ORATORIO, COVENT-GARDEN.—Last evening, a crowded audience was assembled to witness the last Oratorio but one this season, under the able manage ment of Mr. BOCIISA. The selections were from the Messiah, Lord BURCHERSII'S Serious Drama, and a Miscellaneoui Act, in which. several favourite airs were introduced. A beautiful duo concerto for the Harp—" We're a noddin," was admirably per formed by BocirsA and Dtzt ; it was decorated with all the richness of BOCIISA'S style, and executed with his usual brilliancy of effect. Parties of disorderly men were collected in the paiishes of Broome and Ditchingbam, near Bungay, in the course of Thursday last, and threats were uttered against the proprietors of threshing-machines in the neighbourhood. Thursday night, a tremendous conflagration, wilfully occa sioned, broke out on the premises of Mr. F. Groom, of Snape, near Sizmundham. It began in a heap of barley-straw, and communicated to a barn partly filled with grain, a stack of clo ver, and another of wheat containing forty or fifty coombs, a stable, a new and complete grazing premises, and other out buildings. About twelve o'clock, the devouring element threat ened the destruction of the entire premises, and threw the whole village into the greatest terror. fortunately, the wind shifted ; and, at length, by the prompt exertions of the multitude who had assembled, the flames were subdued without further mis chief. Information has been received, through which, it is ex pected, the perpetrators of this fire will be brought to justice.— At Stonbam Aspal, men are appointed to watch every night (two men are at a farm) ; and at Mr. Cracknell's, whose premises are threatened, five men sit up. At this farm, yesterday se'nnight, a man was discovered, who had secreted himself under some straw ; but, owing to the darkness of the night, he got away.-,- Seam time after he returned, and secreted himself again between a waggon and a tumbril, when a gun and a pistol were fired off at him, but without effect, ind he succeeded a second time in effecting his escape. • On Sunday se'nnight, two Ares were seen from that parish. A poor man, coming through Bungay, about nine o'clock on Wednesday night, with kis drill, was surrounded by a set el the rabble by which that town is infested, who abused him, throw ing stoats at him and his horse, which be-was compelled to take away, to save that and himself from the outrage, which termi nated in their maliciously breaking the machine by wkith he ob tabled his support.—Bary Gazette. consideratiiin the proprieiy of presenting a Petition to Parliament on the present alarming and imps ralleled state of Agricultural-Distress. On the motion of the Hon. G. Burnam, the Hon. DOMAS KEW YON was called to the chair. The Meeting assembled in the Shire-Hall, but it not being found sufficiently capacious, it was adjourned to the quarry. As soon as Mr. KENYON had stated the object of the Meeting, J. C. PILHAM, Esq. moved that it should adjourn, in consequence of many Peers and Commoners, who are the principal owners of land in the county, being ne cessarily absent. The motion was put and negatived. Wri.t.tast LLOYD, Esq. of Aston, after noticing the state of agricultural distress and the inadequacy of the relief proposed by Ministers, read a copy of a Petition to the House of Commons, stating that the Petitioners were suffering under the most intense-and unparalleled distress, and that, unless adequate and limmediate relief was afforded, they could but con template the total destruction of their properties. — They express their regret and disappointment at the inadequacy of the measures proposed by Ministers 'for their relief, and declare their opinion that a far greater reduction of *taxation than that hitherto pro posed by Ministers might be accomplished, by en forcing the most strict and rigid economy in every department of the State, and by limiting the esta blishments of the country to their former rate of ex penditure in times of peace: The reading of this Petition was received with great applause; after which, WILLIAM OWEN, Esq. of Woodhouse, the Hon. G. BENNET, W. L ACON CHILDE, .Esq. it. A. SLANaY, Esq. and ROWLAND HILL, Esq. spoke in favour of the Petition. Lord CLIVII and Sir JOHN WROTTEALEY, also ad: dressed the Meeting.- The Petition was then put to the vote, and carried unanimously, with the exception of only two hands held up against it. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting separated. . ~:~ MARCH lb. . a ielee6on of sacred several Royal Kiwo left the Pasilig i rtrlton 'Palace, 'towards the evening yesterday, to receive the l( CORD'S'S Report. s MA04117 returns to-morrow, or the day after.

At o:asa Muanaa.—Yesterday an Inquest was held at the Grave Maurice, Mile-end-road, on the body of Mr. Haar, late a hosier in Whitechapel, who, on Friday night, while passing through Well-street, was attacked by three fellows, who knocked him down, plundered him of ..me property, beat him violently, and left him in a state of insensibility in the kennel, with one of his legs fractured so dreadfully, that the bone protruded through the skin. In this state he was found by the watchman about nine o'clock, who had him conveyed to the London Hospital, where he lingered until Sunday, when he expired. He was perfectly sane before he died, and gave the above account to the surgeons who attended him; but there being no other evidence before the Jury, the Coroner thought it advisable to adjourn, in hopes some further testimony might be obtained. SPARRING. The Fives Court was crowded yesterday, for the benefit of Harry Harmer, as good a bit of stuff as ever peeled. Scroggin; and Cooper, the gipsey, had a manly round, rather to the disad vantage of Scraggy, who was floored in the last set-to. s)ring and Martin displayed much science. Martin had none the worst of it, but with the superior length and weight of Spring, be had much difficulty at getting at him. A good set-to followed be tween Cribb and Bekker. The other exhibiters were Burns and eerier, and Harmer and Alton. The company were well satis fied ; and Harry, now half a blinker, made his bow, and walked off with a pretty good swag.

DISTURBANCES IN IRELAND. Our intelligence from the disturbed districts to day is disiressing. In the county of Mayo, the Ribbon system is extending. On Wednesday, a servant who' ' was left to manage the concerns of Mr. Fair (the Gentleman who was fired at with a double-barrelled gun, a few days previous), at the farm of Currabeg, was attacked in a field on the lands, by nine persons, who beat him into an apparently lifeless state. The unfortunate man remained lying in a helpless state in the place where he was beaten, until J. E. Strickland, Esq. who was going to the Assizes, was passing the spot. This Gentleman took him into his carriage, and carried him to the town of Clare, to be taken care of. In the county of Tipperary, where the Insurrection Act has not yet been put in force, the banditti have committed one murder and several other outrages. — On Thu! slay, Mr. Arthur Johnston (who is receiver, under the Court of Chancery, to a certain property near Nlullinahone),laving occasion to distrain one of the tenants, a Mr. Francis Olilis, jun. sent out for thA purpose, about nine o'clock in the morning, John Egan, John Sheppard, and Maurice Lahiff: on their arrival at Oldis's, at Clongoosge, and in the act of driving some cattle out of his back-yard, a shot was fired by some murdering villain from the dwelling house, which killed Egan on the spot. On hearing of :his melancholy catastrophe, Mr. Johnston sent to John Despar, Esq. who proceeded instantly with a party of military in various directions and appre hended Hugh Loughlin and Pat. Meehan, on sus picion of being concerned in the murder. A respite has been received by the High Sheriff of the county, for the sixteen unexecuted men of those who were found guilty and sentenced at the late Cork Special Commission. The following are further particulars of the mur der committed on a woman at Ballybeacon, men tioned in the STAR of Monday : The unfortunate victim was named Margaret Car rigan, aged about 25 years, who, with one of her sis ters, had• been sent by their mother (a widow living on the lands of Lodge, near Powl-a-Tar Bridge, in the Pai ish of Ballybeacon, near Ardfinane) for some candles about eight o'clock last Sunday evening. On their' way, they saw a fire on the road side, with seven or eight men round it, which, on their ap proach, was quenched: both the girls were then struck .and knocked down by some of the men, and deceased lay motionless on the ground : on her sister being able to rise, she went towards Margaret, and seeing her situation, ran home and brought her mother and another sister, with a horse and car, to the place where deceased lay, when they put her into the car; but before they reached their own house, she was dead ! In the County of Kerry, Mr. Blennerhasset's cot tage at Churchtown, was totally burnt to the ground by the insurgents, on Monday night. Saturday night, a party of insurgents went to the house of a farmer, named Herlihy, and cut off one of his ears; they also broke his furniture. Tuesday morning, the 19th, between two and three o'clock, several farmers houses on the lands of Coolruss, near Croom, county of Limerick, were at tacked and broke open by a party of about eight in number, all armed with guns and some pistols, and unmercifully flogged Patrick Burns, Patrick Ma grath, John O'Donnell, John Newman, Thomas and Patrick Cronin, and threatened them with destruc tion if they did not quit their farms, which they held for many years, by Sunday next. The house of James Sullivan, tenant of Mr. Nash, was also burnt by the insurgents at Ballyree, near Ballingarr7, together with a quantity of wheat, fur niture, and straw. The same night, Connor .Long, on the lands of Cappenahane, was flogged and desired to give Op his house. Friday night, two tenants on the estate of Viscount Adare, at Dodoro, were flogged in a cruel manner by several fellows, because they did not conform to General Rock's mandate in surrendering the farm. Accordintto a Rettltis presented to an Order of the:Mouse of C 001111414, it appears that ►he qiumity of Foreign Grain, Wheat, Meal, and Flour, warehoused under the 55th Geo. 111. and re -1 maioing in the warehouses on the :sth of January, litao, was a 58,940 quarters of Coto and Grata ; and MAN cwt. of Meal and Flour. - M ;i 4 I . ~~~ .~ 7 3
