The only • offices in the Court of King's Bench, 'lien fail within the description of the Resolution r i use Honourable the House of C'-mmons, of the 28th of February last, are the offices of the Chief Clerk, and of the Clerk of the Errors of that Court. The oifice of Chief Clerk'is held in trust for me, and subi ect to my appointrneet.aeto its emoluments, le; my edest 5.)11, the Honourable Eaward Law, and Osborn Markham, Esq. aid the survivor of them ; and the net profits of the office are applied to my use. The annual amount thereof, !spore at average of twelve entire years, from the year 1805 to the pre sent year 1817, is £6,3u7 9s: sd. The profits of the office have risen very considerably beyond their for mer amount during the last six years.. The several particulars relating to this office, its retire and duties, and its connexion with that of the Chief Justice (to whom the right of appointment thereto has immemorially belonged) have lately been stated in several returns made to the Commissioners lilting under the Commission,for inquiring into the fees of the officers in the Courts of Law and Equity. The present Chief Justice understands himself as enjoying the benefits of the office of Chief Clerlc k so held in trust for him, in. precisely the same manner in which it was enjoyed by his predecessors the Lord Chef Juke Huh, the Lord Chief Justice Lee, and Lord Mansfield. at the times when the said office beeline subject to their respective nominations and appointments upon vacancies occurring at the several periods when they respect:eely filled the office et Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench. The Office of Clerk of the Etrots is not properly so much a subordinate office in the Court of King's Bench, held in tiust for the present Chief Justice, as one, which by ancient usage is annexed, in respect to its emoluments, to the office of Chief Justice for the time being, as appears by the statement and do cuments on that subject lately submitted to the Com- Missioners sitting snider the Conimission above men tioned. The annual net receipts of this office, upon an average of 14 years. amount t 3 82678 17s. 8.1 upon an average of the first 7 years to 01.097 I s. 1011. The only Wart ee . allo t er a ege which the CAW fur tics of Use King's Bench receives out of the public revenue, it the annual stun of 84000 payable at the Treasury, which was . first. granted to .Lord Hard vicke, the then Chief Justice, in the year 1755. sub ject to land tax, place and pension taxes, and the lite tax upon offices, and to the property tax. whilst that tax continued) which then reduced its amount, in point of actual beneficial receipt, to about se`h9oo per annum, which salary is farther reduced by the charge to which the Chief. Justice is subject, of furnishing most of the offices of the Court with the stationary and parchment rolls used in . those offices) amounting to about 41250 per annum, and by the expence of two , circuits, which amount to the further sum of between d;00 and £BOO per Imbued. This salary ftom the ptiblic revenue has never been increased during the period which has elapsed since 1783. (although that of every other judicial officer in the Courts of Law in Westminster Hall has been snore than doubled by successive increases during that - iod) probably from the circumstance of the, awe having adverted, amongst other emolu-1 of his dice, to the emoluments which the Justice was known, and in several public re to Parliament, is stated and acknowledged, to _ from the Error Office, as well as on account the advantage he was known to possess in re to the patronage of the office of Chief Clerk, ether'offices.

We have more than once endeavoured to rouse the indignation of the public against the iniquitous system introduced into too many parishes, by which Agri culturalists, instead of paying men a fair compens ition for their labour, keep back a half or three-fourths of their wages, and compel them to apply, or trotters, to the Churchwardens for the remainder—and then cry out against the increase of the Poor Rates. The rates, as now laid, ate not Poor Rates—but Rata fir Wager. This we have frequently stated, and the correctness of our statement has been admitted by Lord CASTLEREAGH in the House of Commons ; and we may certainly congratulate the public on so cor rect a view being taken of this question by his MA. JESTY'S Government—for on this point we cannot for a moment suppose that Lord CASTLEREAGH holds sentiments different from the other Ministers. We have been frank in stating our opinion of the enormity cf a system compelling men to receive a: pauper: wages which they have fairly earned by their labour. We have attributed the introduction of this injustice to the Land-owners and farmers, ncr will the fact be questioned, we believe, by those who will take the trouble to make themselves acquainted with the facts: but if introduced by the agriculturalists, it i, but justice to give to the Manufacturers their fair share of the blame :—they have )..one every thing in their power to profit by the folly of the farmers ; to turn the operation of their system against themselves; to reduce their own workmen to the state of paupers, and to saddle others with the expense of their mann ttnancea—or rather to make others pay the workmen for manufactu►ing goods to be sold exclusively for the basest of the master. Do you want prbofs ? Loot at that Cotton Mill. It is built on the side of a stream, which divides two 'parishes. The owner's slwe)ling r bouse is on the same side of the stream. Where are the habitations of the work-people erected ? On the of her side! in a different parish ! Who supports them when sick, infirm, or out of work ! What workhriuse -ec;-.ives the widows and the orphans of those whose health and strength were wasted in rearing a laile fortune for the owner of the Cotton Mill ? That of the parish in which the workmen sleep—not thit cif the parish which receives the profits of their labottr. Lbok about you. and you will see that this is not a solitary case. So much for Some of the Cotton Mills. As to weaving the yarn after it is spun—Here also the most flagrant injustice prevails. Far months past the weavers in Lancashire have been principally paid out of what Weirder!, the Poor Rat:. in Man chester, a weaver, with a wife and five or six chil dren, himself only employed, at the rate of 6s. or 7s. per week (we are not underrating the wages), and requiring his wife's assistance in winding for him, applies at the Parish board for relief. The merce nary employer readily provides him with a note to the Overseer', stating his earnings, and they make it up to 2s. or 2s. 6d. per head in the family. What is this but paying the wages for weaving out of the Poor Rafe* ? In fact, many► of those Manufacturers, whose ca pital enables them to do so, have been making more galas than in former periods.—on the plainest arith metical- principle. The goods in no country can be manufactured at so cheap a price for labour as they thus pay—and, eventually, the cheapest goods must find their way to the consumer.—ln connec tion with this, mark, we beseech you, the fruit that has been wrung from the late charitable sub scriptions by some of these humane Manufacturers.— As soon as these donations began to !'e divided for the relief of the sufferers, they reduced the wages of their workmen still lower—" I must have your work done at Is. less per week" (Is. out of 61.)—i , Im possible I" replies the workman—" My funily is al ready starving."—" Oh, but I will give you a certi ficate of your wages, and a ticket to receive meal and potatoes worth 2s. a week to you." 1 What can the poor workman do ? He is despised and neglected by the rich who have many friends. He must submit to receive as a part of his wages even those very donations of benevolence which were intended to make up in some measure for his pre vious low earnings. Shame I Shame I And to add, if pouible, to the injustice thus prac tised on the public, these cruel masters insult us by their verbiage and glosses upon the principles of political economy. Labor, they can tell us, Itk an *tilde bf merchandize. and they •Inzve a right to buy. it in the market at the lowest price possible; at well as any other commodity. We car.not now expose the sophism—the ignorance of this statement ; but for the present will content ourselves with an authority not to be contradicted by any Christian—" The labourer is worthy of his reward" —tr To him that worketh, the re. ward is not a favour but a debt." But even on their own principle how tan either the Farmers or the Manufacturers maintain that paying their work. meta out of a rate to which they make others contri bute is iuyinz of (dour ? It is, on the contrary, a rob bing of their neighbours—putting hands into their pockets to draw from thence the wages of their own servants.

A violent gale from the S. W. forced her across the Bay of Bis cay In two days, when they found themselves surrounded by rocks and were ignorant where they were; The storm still conti nuing on the 17th, the Minstrel struck against a rock, which tore away her helm, the shocks succeeding rash other with equal ra pidity and violence. The Captain (Bussiusios) fortunately gut out the boat, with all the crew, consisting of eight men, invite • &ate» after which the vessel went ever. The boat made for an island near the rocks on which the Minstrel was wrecked, which rhergained in three hones. Three of the men were sent on shore while the remainder of the crew remained isi the boat in the ut most distress. In a few hours the men who were sent on shore returned with one of the inhabitants, who informed them, that the name of the island was Molend, five miles South of tlshant— that the rocks on which they µruck were called Les Bases des Moleturs. Every thing was irretrievably lost, except one pun cheon of brandy, which they found floating and brought away. They remained three days in the island, and experienced every attention from tie inhabitants. 'l be Captain and two of the men . got to Bryn ; the others reached St. Mantes where they hired a bust which landed them all safely in St. Br:lades Bay, on Sun ' day last. The people here were under the greatest anxiety for the fate of this Iressel, as the crew were all respectable young I men, natives of this island. The Minstrel belonged to Mr. Nl ' cutouts La Quzsna,of St. fillers." Wednesday morning, the Sib instant, two men coming in boas from Havre-de-Pas. near St. Hater's, struck oq a rock not fir from Elizabeth Castle, the boat was instantly upset by a i r heavy sea. The men endeavoured to save themselves. by chug lag to the oars. Some Gentlemen no the *bore seeing . the dread ful situation of tßessipoor tuns at oho Milian.= Ward of their own lives, went off in a boat to afford thensielief it possble. They succeetled in saving the life of one of them, William Stone, a pilot; bet the other man, just as the Gentlemen got near him, was engulphed by the waves, and was seen oo more. In the memory amass, there was never known in the island of Jersey, so high a tide nor so furious a sea, as on 'Thursday, the 6th instant. At St. Helier 's it reached the church, which is situate near the middle of the town, sapped the foundations of several houses, broke up cellars, and slid considerable damage. Two casks and some cases of wine were forced by the violence of the tide out of the cellars of Mr. A. Sr. Came, and thrown on the pavement. Great apprehensions were entertained that the houses 'near the beach would have been swept away. It is remarkable that the sea-defeuees in this island are mach neeteeted, in comae- Treace of which the sea is gaining visibly on the land. For se veral days past there has been a continuation of the storm, or rather hurricane, from the South-west, attended with rain, hail, and at times with lightning and thunder. Yesterday, the kith,, the wind shifted to the South-east, and never was a finer day seen in the mildest spring. Throe vessels belonging to this island sailed today for Newfoutidland ; two were to go lark toLiverpoel to loadwith alt, and one with potatoes from thii to Gibraltar direct. .1 wo large vessels belonging to this island skied in com pany from New York, one laden with wheat and the other with Sour, for Bristol.

Ste—Tt is imatter of surprise to many friends t 1 'proper Economy, that Ministers have not embodied some of the Veteran Battalions, which would enable them to reduce several more Regiments of the Line, and would make a saving of nearly ielsl,ogo per annum to the Country, if the nunther tailed out should amount to 10,000 men, (say twelve as of old) ; and I am tonfidtot that that number could be found, as fit for garrison duty as any Regi ments of the Line, and could be kept np withJiit the expense of Recruiting Establishments. As those men e in fact paid (if nit lull as much very near it) as if they were doing duty, why should they not be ein ployed at this moment, when every saving should be made that could be with propriety and safety.

TIIE BANK.—Yesterday, a General Cotirt of Pro prietors of Bank Stock WAS held at the Bank, for the purpose of considering of a dividend for the last half year. 'lime CHAIRMAN opened the business of the dal' by reading the proceedings of the I,st General Coon ; which were, in the usual wry, confirmed: . - Mr. HARMAN then rtscomtinended to :he Court a dividend of 5 per cent. for the halt year, tie war rants for which would be issued about the usuallitpe, the 9th of,April. h • • Mr. C B USDBY, of Itic_m_ea re to tie Court, that being a Proprietor Of ink Stock, he had considered it expedient to address a raper to the Court of Directors, relative to the production or Bank accounts, and desired the same to, be react, The paper in question was acknowledged to ha"c hes, received, and after some opposition the contert•s we-p read to the Coot, and proved to be a danand for t'.o Directors to make a full disclosure of the Bank ac counts to a General Court rf Proprietors. Sir T. TtltroN wished to know the amount o% d:. vidend due to him from time to time, and whim re was entitled to receive. It it was a small sum, well and good ; and it a larg.:r, he ougtit to have it ; to this purpose he armed and moved, that the books and accounts onght to he produced. Sir ARTHUR Plum . r justified the conduct of the Directors in not producing the accounts hi compliance with the present application ; and stand to the Court ,eiof pro. his opinion, that the Lank were not bound to produce the accounts at the request of any o ne P ropr i etor. stiol Mr. Patsr, of Bath, opposed the ques t ion clueing the accounts, and expressed himself highly satisfied with the present management of die Bank. Mr. GUNDRY quoted Acts of Parliament to thaw that the Directors were bound to make a dividend on all the profits. Mr. DARBY inveighed against the course so re peatedly t a k e n by Si: Thomas Turton, and rejected by the Court of Proprietors ; and concluded by pro posing a Resolution, approving of the conduct of the Directors, and declaring that it would be highly inexpedient and injurious" to produce the accounts called for. Sir T. Tutyrow inquired on what grounds Oslo Resolution was called for ? How could they declare it inexpedient and injurious to produce accounts, of the nature of which they were wholly ignorant Certain persons might be interested in currying favour with the Directors, but the great body of the Proprietors were not. Mr. SHAW could see no benefit. no advantage, likely to arise either to the Proprietors or the Pithlie from the disclosiii e made by the Honourable Baronsst. Mr. THORNTON ASTELL would recommend to his friend (Mr. Darby) to withdraw his motion of thanks, as the Directors stood sufficiently high in general eskt. mation and confidence nut to need such assistance.
