PARIS, FEBRUARY IL At half-past eight o'clock, yesterday evening, the Members of the Bureau of the Chamber of Deputies were presented to the King by the Minister of the In terior. The President delivered to his Maj e,ty the following Speech: " Sire—lt is with sentiments of the most profound gratitude and love•hat your faithful subjects, the Deputies of the Depart ment, approach to deposit at the foot of the Throne the homage of their respect. The necessity of the: regular vote of the tares mad.: it our duty promptly to answer the summons. The appro.. bation of the King, and the public welfare, are our mom/tepee.. " Under a firm and paternal Government, the internal `situa tion of the kingdom could not fail of ameliorating. The wisdom and courage of the Magistrates, the loyalty of Juries, whose con c.tences nothing has intimidated, have defeated conspiracies wherever formed. and justice has destroyed the hopes of Mira- nit'y entertained by the factious. " Sire, it was et...creed to the most Christian King to raise our temples from their ruins. Thanks to your pious solicitude, religion daily reassumes that salutary ineuencc which inspires men with more attachment to their chides, and more respect for theft/S/1 of their country. The Conventions recently concluded by your Majesty with the Holy See, have restored to your • Churches their former pastors. Soon will labour at.d indigence 1:•41, throughout even the provinces, the consolation and relief , 1 of which they have been so long deprived. " The Ordittapees of your Majesty, Sire, have prepared new mean, of economy, and fixed order in the public accounts. henceforth France will be better informed of the legal appropri ation of the public funds. She already enjoys the fruits of the progressive improvements of the Administration; and an exe as of 40 millions above the credits opened in 182 d attests the pro sperous state of our finances..

Mr. CANNING took his seat last night in the House of Commons ; but, contrary to expectation, no ques tions u ere put to him relative to our foreign policy; and the business of the evening was of considerable in terest. Irish affairs have become, however, a tort of nightmaie ; they prevent repose, and turn out, after I'll, to be a frightful nothing. The misery of the Irish, gre as it is, seems to be fully equalled by the loqua- city of Irish Members, and both are overwhelming' and irremediable. Mr. WALL/ice, the late Vice.' President of the Board of Trade, on moving for the' appointment of a Committee on Trade, similar to that of last Session, was 14ighly and deservedly com plimented by Members on both sides oi" the House, for hit *great attenticln to his duties while in office, and his successful exertions. • 6 ' Yes, Sire, it is by the return to religion, to legitimacy, and to ord;:t, that this fine France, enjoying at length real liberty, shevts to Europe how public calamities may be redeemed. " Why should the exatimle of our present proverity and the leassma . f our past mi,fortimes be lost upon a neighbouring State, uhust independence we do not quevtion? . But e:m we see with out alarm the discords which devour her, and abandon ourselves to those dangers with which we are menaced by the calamities which afflict her? v Destined by PROVIDENCE to close the abyss of Revolutions, your Majesty, in your paternal solicitude, has made every effort to guarantee your subjects, and save Spain herself trout the disas trous erects of the rebellion of a baud of perjured soldiers. blitol infatuation has rejected the counsel of the Chief of the august family of the Bourbons. • u Sire, we are Frenchmen; no sacrifices will be considered too great by your subjects, to defend the dignity of your Crown, and the honour and security of France. It belongs to your Majesty, Sire, to deliberate ; it is for us to concur, by all our efforts, in the noble enterprise of suppressing anarchf. to recognize peace alone, to.restore to liberty a Frinee of your blood, to insure the repose of Spain, to consolidate that of Wrance, to deliver from the yoke of oppression a magnani mous people, who as.isted us to burst our own fetters, and who can only receive from their legitimate Sovereign institutions con formable to their stews aid manners. On tl:r Statute Bonk his is rather a negative merit. No law stands prominently forward to carry his name to posterity; while its merits afford much mat ter of debate to cotemporaries, like Mr. Pest,'s Act. He procured, however, the expunging from our Statute Book Above SOO partly obsolete and partly injudicious lawn but all of which fettered Trade. Though he has not succeeded in all he undertook ' , he did more for the benefit of our Commeice than any previous Vice-President of the Bemis! of Trade, and we have had more pleasure in tracing his steady and beneficial course, than, in losing ourelves in ad miration at the brilliant wanderings of some of his much-be-praised coadjutors. Sire, your couragus acid faithful army, which knew how to cootenso the dastardly insinuations of revolt. goes forth with ardour. Under the banner of the lily, at the voice of your Us jeAy, guided by a Prince that youigoart and your subjects di lisht in calling your son, this noble standard will only proclaim enemies to the factious. “ We return thatats to your 'Majesty for the preeautions which you have taken to protect our maritime commerce, Your pre _ edent wisdom watches over all our interests, and theitsvid torero of your y hiajesty, which have so often afforded timely aid so hu manity, will maintain with equal devotion th e honour .of the F: arch flag. " Sire, your faithful subjects, the Deputies of the Depart w.ents, deeply affected by your royal promises, will repeat them to your pepple. They will tell them that Arc most just of Kipp wills the assembling and maitatetraice of his armies only with the view of preserving social order, and de fending our country and onr leatltutloes from all contagious and disorganising principles."• The King replied : " I unglue with the greatest pleasure theAddrest of the Cham ber of Drinks. I shall be faithful to the engagements which I have cos:acted ;. but whatever may happen, it is from my inti woe pnion with the Legislative chambers that will result the g.d j ut . prosperity and external consideration of France." ere has been circulated to-day a somewhat dif ferent version of the speech which AI. de Villele made,' unpreparedly, yesterday, in the Secret Committee, from that which we gave upon thcauthority of gene ral conversation.

He would take the axe and hit the animal on the head anywhere. If he knocked down a bullock, be would say, " it serves it right the vicious toad, or vicious thine---(Leughter). Joseph Head was examined by Mr. %TM:WILL.— Witness, in 1806 or 1806, entered into the service , of Lord Portsmouth. He was hired by the late Lady Portsmouth, wird' directed him either to obey Lord Portsmouth or not, as he should think pro per. Witness frequently did. refuse to obey Lord Portsmouth, whose orders were often so absurd, that the witness refused to obey them. His Lordship would often order the witness to blow out the can-' dies, and to leave himself in the dark. His Lordship would often lock out the Servants when they stopped out in the rain, so that they might get themselves wet. Ile would often prescribe to the servants a dose of jalap, mustard, and pepper; he would often ob. lige them to take the dose. On one occasion he mixed np a dose of this kind in beer himielf, and held the man whilst he drank it. He prescribed at another time a dose of six ounces of jalap to each servant, On a second occasion he prescribed a dose of twelve ounces, and he afterwards ordered the. dose 'to be repeated. The witness, with ' the others, did not choose to obey those orders. Witness hid heard Lord Portsmouth say, that he lost his best\ frienti when he lost the late Countess, and that his preienttossd tess treated him like a dog, and that he would hive her taken before a Magistrate. On one occasion; after his Lordship's marriage, witness beard in the house. Mr. Hanson, who was in the parlour, desired the witness to follow him, and they went up stairs to Lord Portsmouth's bed-room, when Lady Portsmouth came out and said it was nothing. Lord. Portsmouth afterwards told the witness that Lady Portsmouth had horsewhipred him, and had told him that she would have four men to horsewhip him. and that there was a jailer in the house for the parpose. He asked the witness if that were the ca“' ? Witness heard his Lordship scream out 44 Mor d t' from the bed-room three weeks after marriage. His Lordship would often steal behind the servants :Ansi pull their ears severely. Afier the death of the late Countess of Portsmouth his Lordship told the w mess that he and Mr. Hanson had a wife in view. Witness said he supposed it was Miss Hanson ? Lord Portsmouth replied, he could not say, as Mr. Hanson had told hini not to mention it. Witness sand his Lordship, on the morning of his marriage, leave his house in Lincoln's Inn-fields, at between eight and nine in the morning ; he was dressed in a black coat and waistcoat and pantaloons, Hessian boots, and hat.' with crape upon it.—Witness was proceeding, when Tiw Cuter COMNII*3IOZ.La said it was past five o'clock, and adj,,urned the Cc.urt. giving an account of the contlact which the Ministry believed itself bound to pursue, with respect to Spain, did indeed give it to be understood that they had ..forDished-pecuniary assistanoe to. the bands of the Faith ; but he said, with &eat. reason, that it had not been considered coiristlibt With the dignity of the Go vernment openly.* eneoeragehostilities on the fron tiers of a country in , which we had an Ambassador. . CHAMBER OF DEPUTTBS,. FEBRUARY 18. The klinister of Finance presented the Budget. The total rendered necessary by the settlentetit of the expenses for 1821 is 12,323,8391. But the adjustment of the expenses warranted the reduction of the credits opened by the law to the amount of 11,566,859. f. which make a difference of only 818,9801. between the estimated and the real expenses. By the adjustments which I have thus been made, the expetists of 7821, whichwere eaten !sited at 82 2 1 135,214 f. become 883,054,2541. The receipts'of 1821, estimated at 1129,021,745 f. have produced an excess of - - 26,569 ; 690f. This increases the resources appropriated for the serviee of 1821 to 915,591,4351. The adjustment of the credits makes the expen diture only Surplus produce over the expeeditu re for 1821 32 , 53 7. 18 1 f. In the . Account presented to the Chamber in' June, 1822, the surplus for 1821 was stated at only 31,542,405 f. which was trans.. ferred to the Budget .f0r.,1822. The Budget of that year also presented a surplus receipt beyond the expenses of 2,t 92,330 f. There was, therefore, a sum left unemployed, for 1825, of 10,287,106 f. In 1822, the credits granted have been exceeded by 25,355,5 3 7 francs. in consequence of expenses not provided for by law. The Receipts of the same year, however, exceeded the Esti mates, viz. for Registration, 4,836,097 francs; Woods, 275,515 -franca; Customs, 8,045,983 francs ; Salt, 355.8:55 francs ; indi 're4t Taxes, 10,823.599 francs ; Post Office, 700,786 franca; the WOO. 3,325,6251. Miscellanies, 894 francs. Finally, lbel:X goclatint, of the 12,000,000 francs realized in ler2 has produced .16,493,599 francs, which, allowing for 8 0 1'5,060 francs of detal ' cation On some articles, makes 45,539,322 francs of excess in the estimated receipts.

Ail announcement was ma.le yesterday at the Stock Exchange by the Brokers of Mr. Soiomon COHEN, of his inability to pay the losses be has incurred by the fall of the Fluids.

When spirited individuals endeavour by splendid novelties to amuse the taste of the Public, they undoubtedly merit the only reward that l'ublic is capable of bestowing—Pa tronage!!! This remark has been elicited by our having visited the Western Exchange, Oh; Bond-stiteet, since the late elegant decOratious and enlargement have taken place. Whether coo.' sieered as affording a display of our chiticest spechisent of do , mestie manufacture, as an er.couragement to Vemales of Indus livious habits, or (from its certrical situation) as a most fashion able lounge, this establishment, from its being daily resorted to by crowds of elegantly attired persons, of rant and consequence, evinces that the Proprietors have not failed in obtaining &large portion of ptiblie support..
