The Chancellor of the Exchequer, after repeatedly postponing it, on Monday last " screwed his courage to the sticking point," and brought forward his Budget, fur the particulars of which we refer our readers to our Parliamentary Iteport,assuring them, that if they understand it, they do more than we Lave been enabled to do—but we have gained from Mr. Vansittart's speech information which ought to rouse the people of this kingdom to a sense of their desperate state under such au administration, and to every etS.trt to dislodge them—we allude to his de claration that the estimates for the present year were brou g ht down a; low as it was intended to Live them at any subsequent period—that Govern rotnit had nu intention of reducing the expenditure of the Army or Navy—that amid the multitude of useless places sal sinecure:, nom:e was intti:dal to be THE NATIONAL ntGzstEn given up or abolished—that the permanent PEACE establishment was to cost more than 50,000,0001. annually, and this in despite of the robbery recently committed upon the holders of the Five per Cents. If, under such a statement as this, addresses to the King to dismiss so profligate a set of Ministers du not flow in from every Body possessed of the power of addressing the Crown...if the tables of both Houses be not absolutely covered with petitions against such confirmed extravagance—why, let the people be cheated, their money squandered, and themselves, it they heteatier grumble, be sabred into silence. On Vednesday last, the Marquis of Hertford had an audience of his Majesty, and delivered to him the Order of the Garter, worn by the late Marquis.

CASSEL, JUNE 9.5.—An event equally melancholy and extraordinary wok place lately at Wahem, three leagues from hence. A Protestant minister shot him self through the head in the pulpit, at the moment when he was about to e,,hinience his sermon. This unfortunate man had tbr some time involved hituselt in art excess of mysticism, which probably deranged his mind. A Consul at Salonique has written to a corres pondent at Smyrna the fidlowing letter On the 20th of April A bdoul Paella has demanded the sub mis'ion of Nausta, a village which contains upwards of .200 houses, and situate nine leagues from Salo nique. It is one of the most considerable of Mount Olympus, where all the inhabitants are insurgents. The Pacha sent three Gre.l ministers .of religion to the enemy, who formed a small corps round Nausta. The moment the Priests mentioned sub. mission to the Turks, they were shot dead by their countrymen. The Pacha then attacked the villages of Olympus, and defeated the insurgents, who, in their fUght killed all all their wives and children, rather than suffer them to fall into the hands of the Turks. One hundred villages upon Mount Olym pus have been reduced to aSheS. THIESTC, Juire 17.—The following is the De cree declaring the blockade of Turkey PROVISIONAL GOVERNMEsT Ol' GREECE. The Greek nation has taken arms, and combats against tyranny. Tile rights of the people are incontcstible. The uninurd of sacri f ices uncle by that people, have for object its independence, and as it is aquainied with its rights, it knows also its duty. In declaring its independence, it established a central Government ;to clef the former, and to fulfil the seem', it is incumbent on the Government, to attain its obeeet and to render the cause of the people triumphant, to deprive the enemies of Gre,ce of all their means of opprission ; in conse quence, the Provisional Government of Gre.,c, viltue of the law of nations of all time States of Europe, declares now is o 41644101de All the coast (+milled by the enemy, both in Epirus and tee Peloponnestis, Eubea (Negropont) and Thessaly from Epidaurus to Salunica, inclailin.; that plaec,—declares also in a state of blockade all the Liles and ports occupied by the enemy in the Egean i•ea, the Sparodian Isles. and the Isle of Crete. " All vessels, under whatever P.ag they sail, which, after obtaining a knowledge of the decree by tile Coniinanders of the Greek squadrons, or by separate vessels, shall attempt to enter these ports, shall be se:zed, hnd treated aceordi!l to the laws and usages established in such cues. Tile 4. et - rim:alders of Greek vessels shall continue to cause to bo published this resolu tion, till the Government have acquired the certainty that it has reached wherever it is necessary. The present Declaration shall be besides communicated to ail the Consuls of ail the Friendly l'owers in the different States of Greece. •"Itie President of the Executive rower, •• A. AI AUlto CORDATO. The Meister of Foreign Aflisirs, Corinth, March 13. "Tll. NEGRI. A subscription is likely to be set on foot in behalf of those Greek families rendered destitute, or sold to slavery, iu consequence of the Tut kish atrocities at Scio. The lead is to be taken by a sect which has ever been as nrich distinguished by acts of charity as by exertions in favour of human liberty and hap piness—we mean the Society of Friends. But the warmest sympathy for the unfortunate sufferers is rapidly spreading in every part of' the community, and cannot fail, when the path is pointed out, of being awakened into active benevolence. Captain O'Grady and Mr. James Grattan, both Irish county members, had an affair of honour lately, in consequence of a political dispute. The former was attended by the Hon J. Lowther, as his second, and the latter by the Hon. Charles Howard Butler- Clarke After an exchange of shots, the seconds interfered, and the parties shook hands before they left the ground. A wealthy planter, who died lately at Demerara. has left all his property, in the first instance, to a member of the legal profession, with reversion to Mr. a merchant, at Stockholm. Such is the im mense value of. the estates bequeathed, that u mer chant in London, it is said, has offered Mr. Fileen 850,0001. 1. r his reversion, which the latter has, howevir, declined.

These sessions commenced oa liVetleiestlay morning. —Tobias Burke was nitlicted for intermarrying wills Mary Ann Bruce, his lawful wife Mary being at the time alive. Mr. Alley stated, that the prisoner was a man of res. pectable family in Ireland. In 1815 he became ac quainted with the family of Mr. Butkr, an Irish gen tleman at Cashel, and paid his addresser to his daughter Miry, to whom lie was mairierl. They went to reside in Dublin, where the pi isoner entered into besiness,but failed ; and lie was repeatedly supplied with money, besides a sery considerable his niarriae.

The prisoner frequented the sante church which Miss Bruce did, and having contrived to engage her attention, he ac. companied her to her father's door. This he repeated many limes, and succeeded so Cir in engaging the Mice. tions of the young lady, that she consented lie should make an application to her father on the subject.—He told Mr. Bi nee he wished to marry his daughter, and re presented himself to be possessed. of propeny to the 611110111 a of near 7001. a year. Alt. Bruce said he would nut consent to the union with any man who could trot make a settlement to a certain amount upon her, and he asked the prisoner if lie could do that ? to which the latter very frankly answered in the negative. Mr. Brace then positively io.bade any co nnn iunication between hien and his daughter. But through the instrumentality of a faithless doureatic, he contrived to convey letters to to her, and lie prevailed upon her td be married to hint by hectic • ; to obtain which he had s%VOrn lie was a ha eitlo•.

Ile actually made her accompany him to the Batik . and there write her name, in order to ascertain it her hand w•rituig corresponded with the signature in the bank-books : but it did not. He titen pound that she had no income. A rumour having reached the ears of Mr. Bruce that the prisoner had a lawful wife living, its advertisement was published, and it was answered by the relations of the lust wife.

Mr. Butler then asked prisoner to comply with the forms of Inc Catholic church, and marry one of his daughters, but he refused; and Dr. 1V right gut up to go away.— The prisoner, who was nut sober, also got up to go away, but Mr. Butler said, neither he nut Dr. Wright should quit until they had wore drink. Witness re mained mere until two o'clock in the morning, by which tune they were all stupidly driiiik. Nothing like a marriage ceremony took place while witness was there.
