The Cnnnsel (Mr. Harrison) was heard against the Gas- Lights Bill; and witnosses were examined to show that the passing of the Bill would materially injure the whale-fishery.— Mr. Warren was heard on the other side. The Earl of HARPOWOY paid that there evil. •nly appeared to he some force in the observation of the Counsel, that the passing of this Bill was calculated to give undue advantage to Gas-Light Company, and had, therefore, a tendency to de stroy rather thrift promote fair competition. And then, in a public view also, the matter was extremely deserving of atten tion, though the Counsel could not he regidaily heard to that point. The whale•fisberies formed an exrellent misery f , r seamen—a circumstance which their Lordships could never overlook : and yet they would he most materially injured if these Gas-Lights should be encouraged iu this extraordinary way. It might be proper, therefore, to confine the operation of that encouragement to the metropolis, if they thought that the Bill ought to pass. He would not, however, object to the second reading, as he wished to see the Bill as it might come one of the Committee. The Bill was read a second time, and committed fur Wednesday. IRISH GRAND JURIES. The Marquis of Ls wiDowna moved the third reading of the Irish Grand Juries Bill. The Earl of Donouownong repeated the objection which he formerly stated, not , o the principle, but to one of the !pro visions in the bill. He now understood that the Irish Judges had been consulted, and had given their opinion against the bill. He should not have objected to the provision, that the Grand Juries should receive parole testimony; but he con tended, that it was necessary they should also have the exami nation of the magistrates before them. This objection had been mode in the other House, and something had been inserted to cure the objection, which was no cure at all. He highly approved of assimilating the practice of the law of Ireland to that of England, as far as was consistent with the conditions of the two countries, and particularly be approved of the plan in contemplation, to assimilate the practice of Ireland to that of England in respect to the appointment of sheriffs. If the crown gave up that patronage, the plan would do great good, anti he felt grateful to the Conpuittee of the other House, by which these insproventents had !seen Ant , tested ; hot he wised that the whole plan should he brought forward at once, and not piecemeal. While they were giving Ireland the good things of England, he hoped they would keep the poor laws to themselves. The Earl of LivEnroni. was not aware that the Crown gave op any patronage in agreeing that sheriffs should be appointed in Ireland as they were in England. He admitted that the plan would do great good ; but he thought, that, as the whole of the contemplated improvements could not be brought for ward at once, it was desirable that they should now go as far 43 they could. The Bill was read a third time, and passed.—Adjourned. TUESDAY, JUNE 25. - -- • • - • - The Royal Assent was given . by Commission to the Holy head, the Surrogates, the Rape Seed Cake, the Bristol Small Debts, and Sir W. Abdy's Divorce Rills.—Adjourned. W gnat:matt, June 26. The Royal Assent was given to the Alien Bill, Bank Capital, and other Rills. On the motion for the third reading of the Regent's Canal Bill, the Lord CHANCVLI.OR said, that for ages Parliament had required an estimate of the sum to be placed under the power of such Companies as that of the Heger t's Canal. This Com pany had made such estimate; and now it turned out that their plan could net be carried into execution for double that sum. His Lordship was anxious it should be publicly known, that if Canal Companies deviated one inch from the proper line, or otherwise acted in the least contrary to the law which gave them their powers, they would, on application to a Count of Equity, he stopped instantly ; and he wished the public also to be informed, that it was now clearly established, that any individual whose ground these companies might be proceeding to break, ought compel them to come to a Court of Equity, and canfess, if the fact was so, that the sum stated by them in the estimate laid befote Parliament wonht not be sufficient to carry the scheme into eacdution ; and noon that rontesston they would instantly be cnjoined fr,m breaking the g I of that or any other individual; for the foundation of their selliority and their engagement with the Legistaltire turned upon this-- that the sum stated by them was siitficii lit to execute the plan ; and unless the 'Owl was sitffictent to elo•eille the a it. le 1.1.171, a Court of Equity would enjoin them from executing any part of it. The Saving Banks Bill being brought up from the Commons, Lind SitiMoLTH stated, that objections had been made to it trent a quarter deserving of es ery respect mid attention; and that it was not, the elm r, the iotrotiott to propose that it should pass this Session. - He moved, however, that it b•• printed, and lie over till nest sessiou.—Ordi red. 'f he Earl of LscoranaLt obji etch to the Stage Coach Bill ; besides that no person would agree as to what was, or what Was not, over-driving, this Hill was ohjeetioliiihle in other par ticulars ; hr moved its rejection, which was agreed to, and tilt Bill thrown out.—Adjourned.

BARBARIAN PIRACY AND CRUELTY Extract of a letter from Leghorn, dated June 4 :—The follow ng is the deposition of Jacques Villano, owner of a felucca which has arrived here from Bo*a, near Algiers, on the Barbary Coast : " On the 23d of May, 330 barks of different nations were, as usual, off Bona, fishing for coral. At lay-break a cannon-shot was heard, and at the same moment a great number of armed men, to the amount of about 59410, sonic of them on linrseback, issued from the town, and fell upon the seataen of the said harks is ho were on shore, massacreing all without distinction of flag. I escaped from the massacre, because, being happily at some distance from the town, I had time to embark, as well as three passengers only who have arrived with one, abandoning all our fishing stores and provisions. As far as I could observe, I calculated that about 100 of the said vessels fell a prey to the Alger toes, with the greater part of their crews, and that 300 men were killed in the unexpected attack of 'Mee langlaarkgtve- The brother of the Engli-h Vice Consul, re.sitlent Born, saved himself by flight. after being wounded. I am'ignorant of the Vice Consul's fate It appeared evident that the Algerine Go vernment was a party to this aggression, bream the cannon of the forts at Bona kept up an incessant tire on our barks." That this outrage w ill not pass unpunido ii, mine can doubt. This contort• should take the chastisement into its own hands : and, notwithstanding the state of our finances. there is not au individual, who would grudge the expense of such an expedi tion. A sufficient force could he spar. from Gibraltar, Malta, and the lonian Island , , for this highly meritorious purpose ; and with the large naval and niilitary farce which we have in the Mediterranean, it would he an enternal disgrace to our Councils, were the Algerines to be suffered to commit this outrage without feeling the inflect effects of our vengeance. A Letter from Leghorn, dated June 7, says, " Not withstanding the Treaties concluded with Lord Exmouth, the Barbary Pirates have in sev e ral quarters commenced hostilities. The Tartan Saint Trinite, commanded by Capt. Mario Albertelli, has been taken under the battery, where he was at anchor near Ostia, on the Roman Coast. The crew saved themselves in the Tartan's boa.t The Pirate is a small Barbary vessel under the Black flag. The pirates also pursued a Sardinian vessel which was near the other." The following (says a French Paper) is a new trait of the insolence of the Barbary States:—The French bomb-vessel the Alexander, Capt. Escarras, which left Smyrna i the 17th of May and entered Marseilles on the lath of June, was met on the Bth near ('ape Argente by a xebec of Tripoli, which carried off its guns and some of its provisions. The following Document was on Tuesday posted at Lloyd's : " The Undersigned Consul-General of his Sicilian Majesty has this day received, by means of authentic dispatches, dated Naples, the Ist of June, the tblluwing intbrmation, that his Sicilian Majesty has concluded re spective Treaties of' Peace with the several Barbary States, or Regencies.
