The united abilities of all the honest part of the / I oust' of Commom, could not so incontestibly prove the necessity, the absolute necessity, of a reform in Parliament, as do the votes given in that House on Wednesday and Thursday last.—The first on a inotion of Mr. Lennard, for a Committee, to revise that lavish and exttavagant part of the Civil List, w Lich applies to ambassadors and officers on foreign rii,sioas, and the second by Mr. Warre, on the ncent appointment of Mr. H Vynne, on an em bassy to Switzr..rland, at a charge of £.5,900 for the first year —both these motions were negatived ty a majority equally triumphant to a bad Ga. vernment, and disgraceful to these who arc c.illed the Representatives of the People—who, in other words, ought to be the very Echo of the peo- - rk's wishes—Low they preyed ths.!:ns..lvcs to be what they ought not to be, she obedient minions to a Minister's finger is proved by the lamentable fact, that on neither of those motions did the minority consist of 350 Members. How will the County Members, who voted in these majorities, dare to face their Constituents—how, after having pledged themselves to support economy and retrenchment on every occasion, will they justify thus lending them selves to confirm one of the most shameful Jobs that ever was achieved, even by the present minis ters, (excepting always George Canning's appnint ment to Lisbon)—how,after having whined over and commiwiemted the ruin and distress to which the country is now a victim, and which bears more heavily on the landed than on any other interest— how will they feel when confronted with those whose welfare they were elected to promote, but whose very existence they would apparently com promise on the beck of a Minister, in the expec tation of receiving something in return. " Liars should have good memories," and we should recom mend this old Observation to the political conside ration of my Lord Londonderry ;—s few evenings ago, he, among others, supported the " necessary in fluence" in the House—yet on Thursday night he appealed to its votes as a proof, that himself and his colleagues have the confidence of the country. The fact is, and every day proves it more and more, that there is no reciprocity whatever between the votes of the House of Commons, and the wishes of the People, nor will there ever be, while the majority of its Members are returned by a mere nothing of the population;—that the nation will submit to such a state of things long, we are not inclined to be. lieve—and as a moderate reform is the only way to avoid what we should much regret—we repeat that every enemy to revolution, ought to exclaim con stantly and vehemently for A RFFORM IN PAR.. LIAMCNT. _ . . Extract of a letter from Boathey, dated Oct. 26. " His Majesty's ship Liverpool has arrived here from Muscat. We are sorry to observe that the crew have suffered severely from the excessive beats that pervades the Persian Gulph at this season of the year, which have been this year more intense than usual. In addition to several seamen who have died, we arc sorry to include no less than three of her lieutenants and surgeon ; names as follow : Lieutenants Fenwick, Gerrido, and Bell, with Mr. Alexander, the surgeon. Severul of the officers at tached to the troops at Kilshmi have also died, viz. Lieutenant Le Blanc, of the first battalion 12th Regiment : Lieutenant Forbes and Rind, of the European Regiment. The weather for these some days past has been close and oppressive during the day, but the nights have afforded the usual de , phanta squalls which indicate a change of seem.— ' A considerable quantity of rain has fallen, and re ports from the Uplands assure us that the grain crops have been placed in a state of security by this timely supply of rain. New York papers to the 7th of April, Philadel phia papers to the Bth, 'and Boston papers to the 6th, reached us on Thursday morning last. The Royalists still remain in possession of the fort of St. Juan de Ulha, though it was expected to surrender soon. The Columbian Republic has issued a decree for providing for the widows and children of all who have died in defence of the national liberty and independence, whether by the cruelty of the enemy, or by a glorious death on the field cf battle. * A l'hiladelphia paper contains an article from Jeremie, dated March I , which states a report that a squadron had arrived off; and blockaded the city of Domingo, and taken some Ilaytian vessels. The force was said to coesist of a frigate, a sloop of war, two schooners, and two transports with troops. On the evening that his Majesty visited Drury lane Theatre, one of the royal postillions was de tected picking the pockets of the public—he w4s taken to Row-street, and is remanded till Monday next. We hope and trust that t.mse Members of Parliament who voted against Mr. Warre's motion will support their character for consistency, by rais ing a fund to defend the wfortunole young man; and if his Majesty's Ministers, and the Mr. Wynne, who is appointed our ambassador to Switzerland at at expence of 5,9001. for the first year, were to con duct the defence in person, it would redound to their credit, as it would prove their comtnisseration fur a less tOrtunate peculator. T! Russell, 74, will be launched from Deptford yard on Wednesday next. This vessel is constructed between the ports on Sir Robert Sepping's p:an, and the decks are laid diagonally. At the stern is a bust of Admiral Russell, n ho evuunanded at La Hogue. THE NATIONAL REGISTER NATIONAL SC HOOLS.— OH Wednesday last, fits • annual examination of the male and female children educated at the national schools, on the British system of Dr. Bell, took place at the central school, Baldwin's-gardens, Gray's-Inn-lane, on Wednesday last, his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury in the chair. Before one o'clock, the hour appointed for the examination, the very spacious school-mom was crowded to mess with a brilliant assemblage of beauty and fashion, attending to witness a sight so interesting to all who regard a careful juvenile education, as the source of national prosperity and honour. About cue o'clock, the Rev. Primate took the chair, supported on his right and left by several bishops. The room was filled to excess. The ex amination was conducted with very great regularity, and the catechetical queries were answered with much correctness and care. The children read the different portions of Scripture assigned to them with a surprising accuracy, and clearness of tone, winch uffonled greas satisfaction to the highly respectable audience assembled. The definitions and explana tions given by them extempore, to numerous parts of the Bible, &c. were remarkably pertinent.— About half-past three o'clock the examination end ed, with the children singing a passage from the Psalms, which they executed with much spirit.— The Archbishop of Canterbury expressed in the warmest terms, his satisfaction 'at the conduct of the children—a sentiment re echoed by the com pany at large, which consisted chiefly of ladies.— Amongst the company we observed the Archbishop of York, the Bishops of St. Asuph, Exeter, Llandatf, Worcester, and Lincoln. Lords Kenyon, Radstoch, and Gardner; Sir J. Langham, Sir R. Woodford, and Sir English Dolben; Lady Richardson; Arch deacons Blomfield. Watson, and Prosser; Mr. Wil berforce, and Dr. Wordsworth, &c. &c. On Monday last, an adjourned meeting of the South Sea Company took place at the Company's House in Threadneedle-street. Mr. Bosanquet. the chairman, entered into explanations and details re specting the Pension Contract Plan of Government. Among other particulars, he mentioned that during the term of 45 years the sum advanced would be 23 millions, the return about 2S or 29 millions.—Not withstanding the chairman's elucidations, the scheme appeared to the meeting in general, we believe, very complex. Mr. Higgins, after some remarks on the subject, moved, that " No engagement be entered into with Government until a dividend of four per cent. being the charge of management to which they were entitled for the South Sea House." —This proposition was rejected, and a motion of Mr. Thornton carried, that " The Governor and Deputy Governor of the Bank of the South Sea Company be authorised to treat and contract with government for the proposed annuity."—Anotber resolution was also passed, that for the purpose, an additional capital be nutted, not exceeding the sum of 3,600,0001. the amount of the present capital. The meeting afterwards adjourned. The amount subscribed on Monday was 210,0001, stock, and 122,0001. money. The amount not subscribed by the proprietors of South Sea Stock will be open to public companies, and to the public generally. .IhATH or TUE BISHOP OP M EATH.—The Dublin Freeman's Journal announces the death of the Right Honourable and Right Reverend Doctor Thomas Lewis O'Beirne, Bishop of Meath. His lordship was originally educated for the functions of a Roman Catholic Priest, but having recommended himself to the notice of the late Duke of Portland: he abjured the Roman Catholic Nth, Lecame Protestant Clergyman, and was, in 1799, promoted to the see of Meath, one of the most valuable in Ireland, in point of income and patronage. The .Minister has now three mitres at his disposal. The Dean of St. Patrick's, and Dr. Bisset (first Chap lain to Marquis Wellesley), it is said, will be pre sented with two. The Hun. and Rev. Gerald Va lerian Wellesley, brother of the Marquis Wellesley, has been mentioned as likely to become one of the new Archbishops. The Hon. and Rev. Pa kenham, Dean of Ardbrackan, brother of the Earl of Longford, is mentioned as likely to succeed to the See of Meath. For many years the landholders in Norfolk ap peared to study how to decrease the number of film's, by throwing two, three, or more farms into one—they find,however, that this is bad policy, and we learn with pleasure that many landlords are now busied in subdividing their farms, so as to place them within the reach of honest, industrious men, with small capital : this will lessen the poor rate, serve individuals, and restore a class of beings to society, who have for many years been driven from it by the mistaken views of the landed proprietors. Mr. Secretary Peel stated, in the course of a de• bate which took place in the House of Commons on Friday night last, on the subject of llchester gaol : that he had given orders for a prosecution against Bridle, late keeper of the prison, and that he had also directed eminent surveyors to examine and re port upon the present site and state of the prison, r ~.
