TrC7' . bed no Archon to name. There were, for resin., J oe, Mr. Frederick Arundel, the Secretary, and Mr: ' s l „oben Barber, the betiker t onoof the Directors., For the highly censurable end improper influence which Mr. Bagnold exercises!, nerd they have ass, stronger proof than that (initialled by Mr. Kentble himself, who stated, that though Waldegystre's money had been ordered by the Board, vet in Mr. Bignold's department further delay was thrown in t h e way of the sufferer. SO that, in fact, the inier ferniee of the Secretary set at nought the lejitim.re guthority of the Directors at ,Norwich.—( Bear !) As to any doubt. respecting she general funds of the concern, the Directors could at once have set these doubts at rest, and satisfied the protracted anxiety of the public mind, by giving a fair state ment of them at oace.—(Bear !)—The Directors disclaimed the Committee, which emanated from the former Meeting itt this room, and called them' an unauthorised body. Ile here referred to the enth Article of the Deed frf 1797, under which the Corporation acted ; by that 46 every Member was at liberty to view ill the deeds, settlements, orders, proceedings, tables of salaries of clerks,. &c. at any end all reasonable times be shall think proper."— (Mar, hear !)-11411 not, therefore; the Meeting, composed, as it was, of Subscribers, the right to see those accounts ? And he would ask, by what 'who. rity were they withheld ? Mach had been said of she security the Public had its the Life Dopeospent of this Office; be hoped the result eOuldvtrriTythis confidence; but he aid not hesitate to prneriuncti lilt own private opinion as beaing, doubts upon that point, making a fair calculation according to the Northampton tables—those he believed its general use for making such estimates. Ile had himself removed one life insurance from this Society, because he could not confide in its present management; he still re tained there one life and one fire insurance. He woold hold them until the result of a future General Meet ing. 'But he felt himself bound to state' one fact, and he should not do so were it not for the Wis. Creet amendment which was now about to be pressed timely, that in ibis Society every man who holds a plicy is in law • partner in the concern, and bound by the consr.tution of the Society to hear his share of profit or loss, according to the tenor of his policy.—(/teat, hearl)—This was also the opi etion of the first legal authority—therefore ever) insurer stood in this perilous predicament, 11141 he was responsible for all the inconveniences anti losses of a partnership, but without any chance of par ticipating in its profits. But this was not all—in this Society no man could ascertain his danger he. forehand. In ordinary partnerships, if legal steps were taken agaiust a man, personal sersite of the process was in the outset neeessity; but in this So ciety no such service was neceasary—the action may be brought against Mr. Rignold, she Secretor), and some all the 'Trustees, anal when judgment was ob tained, execution may be sued out at the option sit the person obtaining it, against any individual blame her he thoughs•proper ; so that without a moment's warning the bed msy he taken from under the family of illy insurer, without one minute's previous notice of any process having been issued against him.— (hear, hear !)—Any man could see this to he the case, by Woking at the Act of the 63d of the Kjog, c. 218, sect. 2. lalr. Ramis said, that tin the face of the police this Jodi 'Waal responsibility waa denied. It would be quite a legal goes' ion, .who were Men,• era nod who insurers. Some conversation he .e arose as to the mode of putting the amendment ; sad several Gentlemen esprefsed a wish that the Resolutions which it was i tended so proctoe *dhow heal' read Is the first instance, before .ny decision was had on she motion now pending. It was, however, in the end reaoked, that the' question should he forthwith pot on the amp odmen to sitijotira. It was neecordingly pot. For it there were only about u dozen bands held op s and the orig nnl Resolution. for agreeing to the Report, was carried by an Coloristic. majority. Mr. Caosit'es then proposed. and Mr. Games seconded, a Resolution for enlurgiug the I ominitter. After afew wo ds between Mr. Brooke and Mr. Twigg, It was agreed that on claimants on the office Arnold I along to the Committee. Mr. Greavet was ordered to continue as Secretary, but being a claimant. cot to haven quite in the Committee. Th Committee, consisting of 19 tientleasen, was then ap pointed, naniely Messrs. Alderman Thorp, W. Weston, C. Marten, E. Craw le). W. Sherwood, Bootee, Causten, Lawrence, W. Neal, To ige. Child, jun. and Thomas. 61r.

The Rev. T. SNIT*. Master or (!orlon-house Academy, Ken tish-town, rose so propose a Itesolition for op- sing fa subscrip tion. He said he was sorry to learn that all Ibe insurers is the Norwich °Mee were partners in the risk of a heavy loss, and were pow compelled to take steps and open a substeriptioo, to insure themselves against she consequence of their own in surance.—( A laugh, and hear, hear!)—lt now imperatively behoved them to remove the Mocks that impeded the fair pro gress of their own establishment. They had heard in the ft-- port read this day, demosis - rative proofs of the gross mismanage ment of the concern, or rather most infamous misconduct sat the part of some of its Managers, and he rather thought Cons what he had teen, that the furth e r they carried she investigation. the more necessary they wool.; find it to exercise • greater patience than Job had, at the disclosures that wneld he made to them.— The Manchester case was a most disgraceful one—what could he said of Mr. Bignold's conduct ? that Gentleman had. at all events, shown a rare skill in deduction, when be atauted as in terest oT 15 per cent. for 60 days.— (I tear t) A Gentleman here stood up and read the first paragraph of the Let of the had s f the King, the words of srhith precluded the Norwich Cowpony from taking are insurances" in London and its vitinity." and asked how the Company could .0.14 them irises in taking Eke intermitter' width' mese limits, Contrary to the Act Same Cattlemen of she Committee begged that this olfjeetion might not be mined up with the present proceeding. It should stand ever for future discussion, and was already well known. The Rev. Mr, Amur moved a Vote of Thanks to the late Committee, able* Mr. TWIGO, as a Member of it, acknuw.

OPeret, to allow their agents, who speak from 66 so thentic itaformation" on all subjectc, to Bounder on in ignorance of• the important points discussing- be tween the Greatest end Holiest of Cabinets, to he • all for the pleasures and blessings of tranquillity" • be sounding the praises of their favourite Mi nisters on the idle pipe of peace, when it was neces sary to raise the war.whnop of esterminsting hat t ed against Republican Insurgent', Rebels, Revolted Colonies, and men tliat deny the divine authority of Kings to oppress, barter, or plunder the States over which chance or Injustice had once given them controul.----It 111111 a still more grievous oversight in the framer* of our manifold T.isaties to permit the 66 organs of Government" to pro claim, as they lately did in adverting to the on. fortunate occurrences on the American frontier, that Ministers had made it a point it► their Isle political arrangements, triateer clear of all auatantees and en gsgetnents w hich might involve es its hostilities. when, it turtis'out by the decia,ations of the (,'ourie► of last night, that the very act of the *scrum alliance Of the European Sovereigns contain, a guarantee or engagement which may plunge U 4 into a war as diets as our Allies may call for our assiltassce. 4 t Spain," says the Treasury Scribe, " is one of the great family of European Sore'reigos, and a subscribing party to the Alliance by which mutual support is guaranteed when stanttd." liere is itiformaii. , s, to the I3ti. fish Public, of which even the British Senate was not aware. If such a guarantee as this was implied in the Treaty of Alliance, witty were not both Houses of Parliament distinctly apprized of it, when the Treaty was submitted to their consideration ? At the moment o hen Ministers were professing to o h . serve the strictest neutrality between the revolted Co. Inuits and the Mother Country, would Parliament have sanctioned an engagement binding us to co-ope rate in subduing them by the force of arms ?-- " Why," says the suddenly transformed advocate of peace into the champion of war, 66 why should sot the Allied Sovereigns accede to the request if Spain ?" and then he asks, " were there no treaty, no alliance, sin guarantee, what is there that forbids the exercise of power, to stop the calamities of war?"—What sort of mediation and tranquillity they are that the exercise of power are required to effect, we can have no difficulty in guessing.— Me diation is smother word for insisting on the submiasinn of the American Colonies to the yoke of legitimacy ; but theta are many things that forbid this, which do not seem to enter into the coot...wino of the Treasury oracle. This Quixotic disposition to stop the calamities of war by the ezercise of poser, and to force the blessings of peace upon every body but ourselves, is truly laughable. What a comfortable prospect of Knight Errantry and ex pence it opens to our loyal and legitimate views The blessings of tranquillity are every thing that is beastiful and desirable to the rest of the world, but nothing to as. We are not, ought not to have momentary opportunity of enjoying them, for the calamities of war are raging in South America. And who is the cause of the sanguinary acts that are per. pirating in that quarter? Who is it that is withhold• ing the blessings of peace from the provinces of South America? Who are they, whose mandates, in conformity with the most unsocial and Ini quitous system, forbid the relations of pacific intercourse to subsist between the Nations of Europe and the rich Empires of South America ? Ungenerous and sophisticating hypocrites—the causes of the calamities ye pretend to deprecate lie amongst yourselves—in your own barbarous and er hitrary system, which cannot bear to behold human freedom and the fruits of noble exertion rising even amidst the distant regions of South America.— " Spain has an unquestionable right to the South Ameeicau Provinces because she conquered and co lonized them." This is the reasoning put forth, not to maintain the right of Spain to the possession of these Colonies against the userpation of any other Foreign Power, but to justify the attempt to keep the Southern Continent in a perpetual state of bond. age. If the mere act of colonization confers such a right, and if the Allies ere resolved to enforce it, how will the question stand between us and the United States of America ? NAPOLEON BONAPARTE conquered the dominions of the Congress, and might have colonized them with other subjects, if he had chosen to send the now insolent slaves a.packing,but his right to retain possession of the conquered provinces has not been so conscientiously recognized by the Holy 7 _~,. - • Yesterday was settling day at the Stork Eachange. One defaulter to a considerable amount was men tioned, but the Morning Papers say they hare heard of none. Contrary to the prophecies of the Treasury Journals, the fonds declined. The 3 per cent.

LAWS hive been received in the City from Buenos Ayrri, which state, that the English Merchants there hail sent in several remonstrances to the Buenos Ayres Government against the very high duties on British woollen, cotton, and linen goods. It was. anderstood, in consequence, that a reduction of Show 50 per cent. could take place, which would greatly increase the trade to that quarter, but n o decree had been issued on that subject when the letters came away. There had been considerable sales of the articles above mentioned, but at lea prices. The late accounts from Algiers state, that the plague has so horribly depopulated the place, that the new Dey has commanded, that all unmarried men 'those V years of age shall be conducted to the p u blic pl a c e , and amply gratified with the bastioado, to give them a dealt@ for wedlock !—This seems prelude to a stew empire of women among the Bar. be fiat's. It is announced that Mr.SINCLATR, whose engage. ment lately terminated at Covent-garden, has been induced to give up his intention of going abroad, and so accept an engagement at Diery.lane Theatre This is a valuable acqoisitioo to Drury, and the Pub. tic cannot but be gratified to learn, that they are not "to lose this favourite singer, as reported. It is said, that a Requisition, signed by one hen. tired and twenty-seven Members of the House of Coleman', has been addressed to Mr. TIERNEY, re queming him to take the lead of the Opposition, instead of the late Mr. Pommy se. A meeting has been held, and a sebacription en• Wed into at Grimsby, for. the purpose of petitioning Parliament against the return of one of the newly. elected Members fur that Borough. The reduction of the prices of admission to Drury.' lane 'theatre in the ensuing season is, a measure on which the Sub• Committee have determined. The fol lowing, we are assured, is the arrangement :—Fire shillings to the boxes. first price—three shillings half price; pit three shillings, first price—half-price two ' shillings. But it seems that there is stilt some doubt, whether the additional sixpence shall be taken off from first price to the pit.
