The Chancellor of the Exchequer, after repeatedly postponing it, on Monday last " screwed his courage to the sticking point," and brought forward his Budget, for the particulars of which we refer our readers to our Parliamentary Report, assuring them, that if they understand it, they do more than we have been enabled to do—but we have gained from Vansittart's speech information which ought to rouse the people of this kingdom to a sense of the i r despenite state under such an administration, and to every dint to dislodge them—we allude to his de claration that etc estimates for the present rar were brought down as low us it was intended to Lave them at any subsequent period—that Govern ment bail no intention of reducing the expenditure of the Army or Navy—that amid the multitude of u.sule,ss Fiscus and anieetuv.., none was inteaduil to lw THE NATIONAL REGISTER 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 prefligate a set of Ministers do not flow in from every Body possessed of the power of addressing the Crown—if the tables of both ' Ilouses be not absolutely covered with petitions against such confirmed extravagance—why, let the people be cheated, their money squandered, and themselves, if they hereafter grumble, be sabred into.• silence. On Wednesday 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. The vacant ribbon is destined it is said fur—Who? Why reader if know him, only fancy the little C. of the Ex.—, little Nic—not old Nick—strutting under the decoration of the Order of the Garter! CASSEL, JUNE 25.—An event equally matnelmly and extraordinary took place lately at Wallem, three lea;, , taes from hence. A Protestant minister shot him self through the head in the pulpit, at the moment when he was about to c ,mnienee his sermon. This unfortunate man had for same time involved himself in an excess of mysticism, which probably deranged his mind. A Consul at Salonlipic has written to a corres pondent at Smyrna the following letter:—" On the 20th of April Abdaul l'acha has demanded the sub.. mission of Nausta, a village which contains upwards of 200 houses, and situate nine leagues from Salo nique. It is one of the most consierable of Mount Olympus, where an the inhabitants are insurgents. The Pacha sent three Gresl 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 I'acha then attacked the villages of Olympus, and defeated the insurgents, who, in their flight 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. TittESTE, JUNE 17.—The following is the De cree declaring the blockade of Turkey : Pitovisit)NAl, GOVERNMENT OF GREECE. " The Greek nation has taken arms, and combats against quoit). e rights of the people arc incontestible. Thu unhesid of s.icnhe,:s moue uy tom people, have for object its independence, and as it is acquainted with its rights, it knows i also its duty. In declining its independence , it estab lish ed a central Government; to defend the former, and to fulfil the second, it is incumbent on the Government, to attain its object and to render the cause of the people triumphant, to deprive the enemies of Gtesce of all their means of oppression ; in conse quence, the Provisional Government of Greece, in dune of the law of nations of all the States of Europe, declares now in a state afblyekade all the coast occupied by the enemy, both in Epirus and the Peloponnesus, Eubtat (Negropont) and Thrssaly tram Epidaurus to Salonica, includins that place,—declares also in a state of blockade all the isles mina ports occupied by the enemy in the Egcan Sea, the Spurutlian Isles, and the Isle of Crete. *6 All vessels, under whatever flag they sail, which, after obtaining a knowledge of the decree by the Commanders of the Greek squadrons, or by separate vt. , sers, shall attempt to enter these ports, shall be seized, and treated according to the Jaws and usages established in such cases. The Commanders of Greek voisels shall continue to cause to be published this resolu tion, till the Government have acquired the certainty that it has reached wherever it is necessary. The present Declaration shall Ix besides conuounicated to all the Consuls of all the Friendly Powers in the different States of Greece. 6"lhe President of the Executive Power, " A. MAURO CORDATO.

ROYAL VAUXHALL GAnDaNS. —•-Circumstances we could not controul prevented our visiting this terrestrial Elysium until Wednesday night lust, and our expectations had been raised so high by the ac counts we had received from our friends, that this our first visit was paid under evident disadvantages; but we can truly say, that the most favourable re port we had received did not come up to what we found to be the fact—the present Proprietors pro mised by variety to banish the ennui which, not un frequently, was heretofore produced by the sameness of the entertainments, and they have, in our opinion, fully redeemed their pledge—if a fault could be found, it would be that the succession of amuse ments is too rapid; but though this may be an ob jection to the age of SIXTY, the youtlifial votaries of pleasure will find in it an additional inducement. There appears to have been improvement in every department—in the article of provisions we found an union of excellence and comparative economy, and the wines, which may now be procured in black pints or quarts, are excellent. The Gardens appear to have experienced thz patronage to which they are entitled, by the liberality of the arrangements in every department, fur, on the evening we were there, they were filled to repletion—and when we left them, at past midnight, the hilarity of the be witching scene appeared scarcely to have reached its zenith. OLD BAILEY SESSIONS. These sessions commenced 0.1 Wednes lay morninz. —Tobias Burke was indicted (or intermarrying with Mary Aim Bruce, his lawful wife Mary tieing at the time alive. Mr. Alley Stated, that the prisoner was a man of fell. pectahle family in Ireland. In 1815 lie became ac quainted with the family of Mr,.Bail r, an Irish gen tlemais at Cashel, and paid his addresses to his d a u g h ter Mary, to whom he was married. 'l' tory went to reside in . Dublin, where the pi isoner entered into lousiness, hut d telly supplied with money, his failed slim which be received on 116.1i:3e:11:v1 t to hit s be wag ° , l l s wn i:t a a j e j ;; 2 l i rr i le e e bi n ie t a e l abes i l sub business, he separated hunt his wile , but they afterwards joined again, and came to England.

This he repeated many times, and succeeded so far in engaging the aflec. bons of the voting lady, ilea she conseuted he should make au apptication to her rather on the subjec t .—lle told Mr. Bowe tie %visited to marry his daughter, and re presented himself to be possessed of propel my to the alllollllt Of lieu 7001. a year. \l r. Broce said he wo u ld not consent io the union with any man who could not make a settlement to a certain amount upon her, and he asked the prisoner it he could do that? to which the latter very frankly answered in the ne,..,.mve. Mr. Bruce that positively tot bade any Coin inonication between him and his daughter. But torottO the instrumentality of a faithless domestic, he contrived to convey letters to to her, and he prevailed upon her to be married to hint by licence; to °Main which he had sworn he was a Its. chelur. They were martied in December, 1820. Sne lea her father's house upon the refusal of the latter to receive her husband as his son-in-law, and went into lodgings with the prisoner for a time, but was soon glad to return to the paternal roof. lie had heard before his marriage, that there was a considerable property in the fun ;s its the name of Mary Ann Bruce, and would not he dissuaded even by his wile that it did not belong to her. lie actually made her accompany him to the Bank, and there write her name, in order to ascertain if her hand writing corresponded with the signature in the bank-books but it did not. Ile theta found that she had no income. A rumour having reached the ears of Mr. Bruce that die prisoner had a lawful wife living, an advertisement was published, and it was answered by the relations of the hm wife. The latter unfortunate woman was found in the workhouse of St. Pancras, Eliza and Julia Bader, (sisters to the first wife), A Bruce, Esq. and his daughter, Miss Mary Anne Bruce, proved all that the l earned counsel had stated. The prisoner, in his defence said, he was a Protestant, mad that lie was entrapped into a specious marriage whets he was drunk. He never considered Mary Butler as his wife. He called the following witness— Thomas Maher has known the prisoner from his birth. Was at his christening; he was ehristened by Mr. Jordan, a Protestant clergyman ; the prisoner's father and all the family were Brotestants to the best of witness's bite.— ' Knows the Buslcr's in Ireland. Neaer knew one of that name to go to a Protestan church in his life. Had seen many of the Bilike's at mass. Edmund Burke is an elder brother of the prisoner's and is a Catholic !Music. The prisoner was broaot tip in the Protestant religion. Witness was at Cash. at the time of the supposed marriage; witness dined with them all at Butler's, and recollects hearing Mr. limier after dinner say something about sending fur a priest. - Also heard him say he wishell to give prisoner one of his daughters, but did not know which of them to give Witness torbad Mr. Butler to do any thing of that kind, telling him that prisoner was a Protestant, and a mar riage would not be lawful. The subject was dropped, and they began drinking and playing cards, which con tinued for three hours. About 12 o'clock at night the Rev. Dr. Wright, a Catholic priest, was scan for. Mr. Butler then asked prisoner to comply with the toms of the Catholic chinch, and marry one of his daughters, hut he refused ; and Dr. NV right got up to go away.— The prisoner, who was not sober, also got up in go away, but Mr. Butler said, neither he nor Dr. Wright should quit until they had more drink. W ttness . re. unlined there until two o'clock in the morning, by which time they were all stupidly drunk. Nothing like a marriage ceremony took place while witness was there. Cross-examined.—Witness lives 17 miles from Cashel, and lie went there on this occasion, in consequence of a letter from the prisoner, informing him that his mare had strayed from Cashel. Upon his oath he was nos invited to be present at the marriage. Had not seen or heard of his brother for seven years before he wrote to him, and then the sole subject of his letter was the stray ing of the mare.—He would swear he never gave his brother away so Mary Butler in m arria g e. Dr W r i ght dead. NVittiesis mother was a Catholic , and his father a Protestant. When witness quitted Butler's house at two o'clock in the morning, his brother was stupidly drunk. Dennis Burke, another brother to the prisoner, said. his father was dead when the prisoner was born. Prisonee was always of the Protestant persuasion. Cross-examined.—N ever saw the prisoner go to a Ca tholic chapel with his wife. John Burke, another brother, never knew the prisoner go to mass. This closed the case for the defence ; and Mr. Alley requested leave to call Miss Eliza Butler to contradict part lie Fare theofihaetes ofiinatty prisoner away Edi Edmund Burke, who had swots that Miss Butler declared, that Edmund Hurke placed the hand of the prisoner in that of Dr. Might at the cere. lemony.
