As to the badne s s to he done. he chi nut mule, stood that any mare grouts woo ul he rivired for c-e vice. l'he Mutiny Act was to be c • II till June ns the dissolu• t ion might take place so..u, say Main h I, and the tww Par liament mi,;lit be as-molded by the YOtbar tank of April It might not be teddy to proceed with public business so early, but it could be a.seitibled by that time. Ile colicluiled with 11101/111g ea address, which was a repetitiou of the Message. Mr. TIERN EY observed that he believed this to be the ti.st instauce settee the Revolution, where the Royal Message. after the Access' to the Throne, omitted to ',lieu the views of the King, especially regarding the hereditary revenues of the Comm. It was impossible to believe that there wns not so►uething at the bottom of all this which muse could understand. Why was nothing said about the civil Ist ? Was there not some reason which it was nut decreed prudent to avow f As the civil list wussettled to 1516. why was not a Bill brought in about the civil list ? Torre was a plenty of time, because the list had been so recently settled ; and why it was nut thought so he was quite at a low to coopre 'rod. But now it seemed shit May. the bitter end of the season, contrary to all former nations, wasderwed the couvenient period to condect heavy busitiess. There was, however, to be to grant of money. The CH AN CELLOR of t ..e EXCHEQUER.said he pro posed to apply fin grants to merit the civil list expenditure to April 5. Mr. ft ERNEY mistimed. By that period, the new Parliament could sot be assembled I and therefore from April 5. there would be so grants to inaintaiu the dignity of the Crown. Why was this impricedented course to be pursued, except it was apprehended that the civil list do cessions would call forth something which no man antici pated. and which the minions did not choose to meet with the Parliament. He should protest against the course as most unprecedented, and why the businessammally expected Was now In be evaded he could not imagine. Lord CAS ILI:AEU:If replied. The Itight lion. Gee *man h..d in great part answered himself. if at were true that the Lint Lit was Settled so recently. As to the hereditary revenues of the Crown, he felt persuaded shut Parliament would not refine those libeml al owances to the Crown which had never bees refused. But did it follow, lieentise the civil list was settled in ISM that such arrangement would suit the precut period ? If it were SO endergo dis cussion, would that time be the best fur it when approaching elections might divide the attention of Ron. Members. It MRS the principle of those opposite that the grants to the Crown Mould I►e to liberal as to secure the Parliament from debt; and uu such footing it was desirable to place the civil list. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHFQUER explained the Acts regarding the Civil List, and added, that ma part was spicily applicable to the service of the Civil List hut the hereditary Revenue of the Crown. Taut ammiuted to 5 or 500,0001. and no more, and that was by nu means suffi cient to meet the espendirure of the Civil List. If debt were to be avoided, the List must be placed on a &feint* footing; and therefore an extended examination and deli berate consideratiou were necessary. Instead of new grants hieing r.•quired. he bad pleasure in stating, that by fresh arrangement► coubdiereble savings might be, and be anticipated would be elected. On Monday twee, the earliest day, lie should propose Grants for the service of the Civil List, till April 5. Besides a Bill to coon 111 l e the Mutiny Act, there would be Bills to continue slime Acts.which would otherwise expire before the new Parlia ment could lie assembled. Mr. HUME said, that lay the 54th of the late King, there was was an allowance •r to the Princess of Wales, now our Quern;" and he wished to leant whether such Act was to be continued ? Load CASTLEREAGH replied, that pains would be taken (list to inconvenience should be felt in the quarter to whirls allusion hail been made. Mr. BROUGHAM übsei wed, that the House was played in a most eats aordivary situation by the precise and specific Message fr the King. He meant to make no allusion to what had been inemi eeee ed by an Him. Mem ber _(hin. H ) who just souke. The Message made the House party to die pi upriety of dissolving Parliament, a subject that ought to lie kept to the Croon peculiarly ; and this course was most •onsti 0000 Mind. Alin, how ever, leaving been told that the country was in a must *laming state, that plots were hatching under their fret, and that it was necessary to bridle the people with 'mere laws, it was gratifying to find, that now there was no cause for alarm, since, by the dissolution of Parliament, one of the recent severe laws expired (the Seditious Meetings' Act, we believe). But it was easily to be ini dentood why a new Parliament was to he preferred to a death-bed Parliament, to adjust the Civil List. Mr. CANNING declared. that toe animaters had no designs other than tlinse which had been avowed; and that if the contrary woe found, the Hon. and Learned Gentleman would not fail to remind them of ii. As to the interfesetice of Parliament, so ■pptekeofed, it seemed to be forgutien that the House had hereto:ore even prayed the Mons' eh to dissolve Parliament. Never had a Royal demise taken place, under suualar cei stances, therefoie their was nu precedent ; out as she Hon. and Learned Gt odium' had been the first to cite r the field, to ther hard for him to complaiu ul precipitancy of dissulu lion—(A laurb). Mr. BROUGHAM replied, in explanation, that its order to bring in the story of the sieves tearoom, inisie presentation hail been Jesus ted to. So tar fruit, emit plaiting of precipitancy, he 11411 sejoiced that dissolution was to approach so stun.—(Heat.) Nut lie had cum. plaiurd that the House was called on to approve of tlt• Crown's resolution to dissolve the Pat liement. Mr. hIACDONALO hating advei led to the nova I pro ceeding of calling on the House to discuss the prop let) of the dissolute 0000 declared that the ramie of such dime Inlion was the dasinclinrtiot of Ministers to meet part.- eular questions with the present Pailimuent. The inution was lint and agreed to. CORRUPT BOROUGHS. Lord .1. RUSSELL moved fur leave to bring in a Ball to preen.t the issuing of any Vi tits fur Grampouud, I'ea• rya. Cawtiwrd, ilia Rat unapt...

" H. HOBHOUSE." " The Clerk oldie Peace for -." Sir Benjamin Bloomfield, by command of his Majesty has communicated to the Trustees of the Welch Charity, that thJugh ceasing to be Prince of Wales, his Majesty will still patronise the institu tion, and in addition to his annual subscription, has presented to the charity one hundred guineas. A Ministeral paper states, that Mr. Croker, Se cretary to the Admiralty, is to succeed Sir F.van \epean in the Government of Bombay. We do not believe that there is any foundation whatever fur the rumour. The retuains of the late Mr. J. Latouche, the highly respectable Member fbr the County of Lei trim, proceeded on Thursday morning from Arli ig ton-street, on their way to Dublin for interment. They were accompanied part of the way by Mr. George Latouche, the relative of the deceased, anti a few private friends. The orders for the removal of the military to a distance of three miles tiom the scene of election for Members of Parliament, have been prepared within the last fbur days, and are now ready to be issued at the War-office. _ The remains of the late Sir Vickery Gibbs were ren►oved early of Tuesday morning from his house in Russell-spare, for interment at Hayes. The body was conveyed in a hearse drawn by six hems. hollowed by five mourning coaches and four, and f►fteen gentlemen's carriage*. On 'aturday ne'nnight three men were appre hended at Becelta, in the act of passing firged Bank ,of England notes ; when taken, one of them had twelve, and another seven notes in his possession They were committed to Ipswich gaol, by J. J. Bedingfield and M Kerribon, . - - Extract of a Letter from Messrs. Wilk in anti Go. of Smyrna, to Thomas Wilkin and Co. Londo4, dated Smyrna. Jan. .2, 11i'?0: •• An alarming fire broke out yesterday morning it ar.i meneed in the Fruit-bazaar. and. owing to a violent gal.: wind Imus the southward, the flumes raged with great fa: • ; they were checked in some measure by the old Castle aad t .e large new Mosque ; but they took a direztion round the Anti .e towards the Turk Town. and continued their progress even to the gates of the two Bezesteins adjoining your house. T glee you an ilea of the extent of the damage. as you are so welfze quainted with the situation of the Bazaars. we cannot do so more fully than to say, that from the Fruit bazaar• which is destroyed, excepting - two or three magazines (fire-proof), there is nothing but a heap of ruins to the outer gates of the two Bazaars adjoin ing, where its progress was stopped. The Bath is destroyed with one Mosque. The French frigate. the Gotathee, arrived the daft preceding, and the commandant landed from her and the o her f ships of war here about 300 men. This is the same frigate which Mr. Montcabrier commanded at the time your house was burnt; and it ss remarkable that site should arrive only one day before this fire. It is said that the sailors were very active at the coin. suencement of the fire. They wished to (loamy the Custom house. but the chief Customer would not agree to it ; as he a. • sured us in the morning, that the moment any real danger ex isted of its being destroyed by fire, he himself would destroy it to impede the progress of the flames. The fire commenced about 2 o'clock in the morning, and burnt for It hours. The extent of the losses and amount of property consumed cannot be a, yet ascertained ; but we believe most of the shopkeeprs had time to remove their property." Extract of a letter from Hertford, Feb. 17. " A remarkable black cloud was observed during the time of the ceremony of the interment of his late Majesty, something resembling crape in appear ance, and in shape a rainbow, though not so much arched; it extended from the North round the West to the South. The sky, both above and below the cloud, was particularly bright, and no other cloud was to be seen. It continued visible, with very littlo variation in its appearance, for about two hours." This phenomenon was observed at Homerton, and other places. It is a singular fact, that the venerable Sir John Treveleyan, Burt. who is still living, was returned three successive times to Parliament for Somerset, for eighly•foer guineas! The expence of each election being as tidlows ;--Under Sheriff, ten gui neas; County Clerk, five guineas; ringers, five guineas; chairing. five guineas; and County Cicri', three guineas. Fine.—About six o'clock on Thursday morning, a fire broke out at the dwelling house of Mr. Ar kison, dyer, James-street, Paddington. It origi nated in the dying-room OR the second floor, and had destroyed the greater part of the room, together with a quantity of clothes which were hung up to dry, before it was discovered ; but the house was preserved from being consumed by the prompt exer tions of the firemen, and a plentiful supply of water. We understand that it is the intention of his Ma jesty to cause the Castle at Windsor to be closed, agreeably to the etiquette which requires that the Palace in which a Sovereign expires shall remain entirely unoccupied for the space of one year after the death. In furtherance of this measure, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, in letters lately received from Hanover, requested his sister, the Princess Sophia, to take up her residence at Cam bridge-house, in South Audley-street. Her Royal Highness accepted the invitation, and removed there on Monday last, accompanied by the Duke of York. Private letters received from Dublin state, that the Proprietors of Covent Garden Tl:eatre have en tered into a treaty for the Dublin Theatre, which promises to afford much satisfaction to the inhabi tants of that city, as they will have a constant supply of the first rate talents of Covent Garden, in sums. Ilion, during the season. Two graves, or coffins, formed by stones placed edgewise, and large flat stones over, were discovered in digging a vault, a few days since, in the Lady's A rbour of Hereford Cathedral. Both of these places of sepulchre contained charcoal, ashes, and calcined bones. Two other graves of a similar description were found, about three years ago, in sinking a saw. pit, close to the scite of the ancient chapel, near the Episcopal Palace in that city, It is will known that at water is not coundete.l by pi.tes to each hoaie in London. but is brought by a IMIIIefOIISCIJSS Of in to, often natives of Auvergne, iota sons of a in.tuntaiitotis e ry, m bucket', and in an earthen vase ..s large as a It g.head, waere it filters through gravel at the ho torn, .And is dr twit by a cock l'or the use of the tamily. wen are called porkies dram, r water-bearers.
