*Mee V t domestic condition, and to its relations to the rest Europe. ( he: r.) it Mr. t: LCHAFF said he considered the present goer 1 ;oes important, as it regarded the application of a one plei revenue. and as it regarded the doctrine of a Sink-, ing html. With respect to the charge of the Member for Liverpeol against his Right Honourable Friend (Mr. Tiercey), he tli.l not think that the charge applied, bi nose the internal state of the country now is ilifferenr from the state of the country in 17t56. After all, there was not so great a difference between the two sides of the hoese. The Gentlemen opposite proposed a reduction of taxation to the amount of two millions, leaving a Sink ing Fund of five millions. They (the Oppositioo) pr uo-ctl a further reduction of three millions, and that the wteploe revenue called a Sinking Fund, of five millions, should be-educed to-two millions. There was no Gen tleman in that louse who did not see that a large remis sion of taxes must give the certainty of an improvement in the remaining branches of the revenue; the sum of two millions would undoubtedly he mach increased at the end of the year. The Right HononrableGentlern An (Mr.,lluskisson) argued as if the Resolutions of ISI9 i were so binding that any breath of those would be a violation of public faith, and an -attack upon public credit; now what, be would ask, could be more inconsistent than the Right Honourable Urn tleman, who, in order to get np to that Resolatioe, passed over the law of the country. The highest doc trine on the Sinking Fund was held by his bun. friend (Bering), his (Mr. Maberly's) objection to that doctrine wee, that in dealing with the people it could not be car ried into effect ; if it were to be applied to au inanimate body, it would be easily well, but it seemed to leave out of consideration the wants and the distresses of the peo tp'e. In his (Mr. Caleraft's) view of the case, the houge, under the present circumstances of the country, ought to emit five millions of taxes (hear, bear, hear !). Remit ting eetnneb, there would still remain a sum of two mil lions—a surplus, in his opinion, amply suffiaient to meet any sudden emerrency. The Minister, in 1819—in a tulle of place—laid on additional taxes to the amount of three millions, and yet it was assumed that, if after that house lad remitted tones to the utmost farthing, a cwt. den occasion shonld arise, cansed by the necessity of de. toolingpur national honour; or protecting the princi ciples of liberty (hear, hear !). that the people of F.ng . land would wormer at new and necessary hurtling ;—lie did not believe it ; let the Government, by every honour ableireane, relieve the people; and the people; by every pootble means. si mild support the Government. Mr. MA ItERLY rose to reply. He said that the Hi. rentable Member for Taunton had thought fit, in the course of his speech, th apply some hard terms; he had ' called his (llr. Maberlv's) plan, a bubble—if it were a i bultle, it was the bubble which the lion. Gentleman op prolte bed continued to support to the present hour ; hut be would tell'the Hononrable Member that it was not a bubble. It Was notorious that the Land Tax was made perpetual fin the purpose of re !eruption , and redeemable ftt the pnrposo of pnechase. The Hon. Member (or ; 'Tonnton lied said there was no foundation for his (Mr. 'hi 's) -plan—tie -was not the projector of that plan; but at allevewte it bad the fonntlatton of an Act of Parka ' meat: The Rieht Hon. Gent. (Mr. Huai:lsom) seemed 'to ear, it old be difficult to effect the sale of the land tat. He (Mr. Idiberly) thought, if the difficulties whirl, lee had that night already stated were removed, that there •woold bestowal more rapid sale efferted that he (Mr. M.) had stated. The Honourable Member fot Porter!- ! ton had started a most extraordinary objection ; he said that he'was an enemy to the Sinking Fund, and he 'gave it as o reason that it was mismanaged ; surely that was no irrnment arainst the sobstitnte for a Sinking Fond, which he (Mr. M.) proposed. He agreed with that bon. gentleman. that the Chancellor of the Hecht.- vet had not A Sinking Fund honestly and fairly ae tefred Is the last year the Chaneell'or of the Riche queer hate etatetthat /bete was a Sinking Fund of fire tilittens.wnel in fourteen days after he destroyed the principle of that fund ; he mated a fixed annuity on' rented, df 2f3 hundred thousand pounds. for a period o' forty-five years. Coder all the circumstances, he s l oe ro reason why the house should not remit five mil hors, and to provide a substitute by the sale of the Land Tar. The house then divided:—For the mistio , , 72; against it, 157.—Majority against the motion, B.i. The other orders of the day is ere then disposed of; and the hoose adjourned. MAILS. DUE ARIt, Dv,.

The moment he appeared was again the commencement o: a terrible explosion. Every one on the right side gut up pith indignation, and cried out, " No! no: nu!"

Yesterday, Mr. ADAMS resumed his remarks, in an inge nious speech of two hours and a half; after which Mr. We- THEugu, rose to reply, and, in an address which was much applauded, proceeded to prove the unsoundness of the un fortunate Nobleman's n.ind, and to expose the frauds and cruel treatment to which he had been exposed. Mr. Commissioner Taowca charged the Jury. He ob served upon the law of the case. that it had been stated that they must find whether the Earl, the subject of the inquisi tion was a lunatic or not. Hut this was a mistake; the Jury were not bound so to find their verdict, pr to find it (as had been represented) in the express words of the Commission, or In any technical terms. All the Jury had to consider was, whether or not Lord P. was in an unsound state of mind, ur as to be Incapable of managing his own anirs. • VERDICT. The Jury retired anti deliberated upwards of an hour.— Upon their return, which was at a quarter past seven, their names were called over, and Lord JOHN FITZROV, the Fore man, addressing his brethren, said. "Gentlemen, as many of you as are of opinion that John Charles Earl of Ports mouth is of unsound mind and condition. and itsclpable of managing himself and his affairs, signify the same by hold ing tip your hands." The Jury all held up their hands. The FOREMAN then said to them, " Gentlemen, as many of you as ere of opinion that John Charles Earl of Ports mouth has been of unsound mind and condition since the Ist of January, 1609, siinify the same by holding up your hands. Tne Jurors all held up their hands. Mr. Commissioner TROWER then mentioned to the Jury, that as they had heard no evidenee as to the question who was next heir to the titles and es►ates, it became necessary to add to their verdict words to that effect. The verdict was drawn up in a legal form, signed by each of the Jurors, and handed to the Commissioners, to be de livered to the Lord Chancellor. Lord JOHN FITZROY F lid, he had to repeat the observa tions made at the commencement of this inquiry by each Gentlemen of the Jury as were Members of Parliament, upon the subject of their being called upon to fill the situ.- lions of Jerors during the sitting of the Legislative Body. They had thought proper to do so, in order to prevent such a measure from being made a precede** epee any fume OCCRSioa. The Commissioners said that due notice should be Wren of the communication. The Commission was then dissolved, the inquiry having occupied seventeen days. out." Hamburg papers have arrived this morning, by which we have received accounts from Stockholm, Petersburg . , and Berlin. In the Swelisb Diet the Speaker elite Chamber of Peasants, Iris taken occasion to complain of the general distress prevailing in the country. and to state his opinion that retrenchments might be tuade in sever.tl brancl.es of the administration, and that high taxation is the chief grcut:d of the distress, consegiently that reduction of the taxes is the only financial opera tion that can he of any avail. He added that the dui of cot sumers was mire numerous in proportion than the population of the labouring claseks. The King baring learned that a motion for an Address of Thanks to him had passed in the Chtitul.wr of the Peasants, and had been approved of by the clergy, his Majesty has in formed them, he secs no occasion for such an adddrrss, and f.tls convinced that, in the course of the Session, the Diet will have more than one opportunity to show its real avatliment to the King and the country.—The Spanish Charge d'Affaires at Petersburg had receh'ed his passports on the 4th of February.

De Bereng:.`r, to rreover compensation for his services in respect of house in Corithill, of which the defendant bought a lease, and sold it again. The plaintiff alleged that h- had coasi deratrie skill in planning and improving houses, and that the defendant, who bought them to sell again; had agreed to g ye him a third of any profit on the house in question, the interest in which he had purchased fur ?OW. and sold at bIlUt. It dii not, however, appear that Mr. De Berenger had rei, tiered any efficient service on account of the house, and the menioraudles and letters relied on seemed rat h er to relete to some scheme of pai wet-ship in a business to be carried an upon the premises, than to any purchase of the house for sale. Thejory found a verdict for the defendant. WOODROFEL V. OLDPIALD AND OTHERS: Mr. GURNEY stated, that this action was brought under very just and salutary law, which en.bled those who had been deluded by the acts of professed gamesters to compel them to refund their unjust gains. Th. defendants were Oldfield, Bennett. and Carlos, who officiste I es managers of a house. No. 76, St. James's-street, where the plsintir had been Induced to play. mid lin I met with the mufti reward of such folly. Ile would prove the loss of three distinct sums at specified times, which lie wouli be clearly eutitled to re- cover. Mr. VVilliam Smith was called, and said—On the 2d of August, 1821, I went to 73, St. James's-street, with Mr. Woodrofte, when he played at rouge et noir. lie lost be tween 401. and 501. on that occasion. Mr. Bennett anti Mr. Carlos were there ; I have seen them and Oldfield maiming the house. Oa the 4th of August, I was again at the house with Mr. Woodroffe ; he lost, but I do not know how much. Perhaps he had St. or IW. on going into the house, and none on coming out. Phillips was dealing the cards. Ou the oth of August Mr.lVooalroffe lost 2 1 1. at the same game.—l have been there on various occasions . , and always saw them taking shares in the management of the game. On cross-examination, the witness said, I hare been for some time in the rules of the King's Beach. I have often been c tiled Captain Smith, because I am a second lieute nant. I know Captain Popham; I dare say I may have seen hi.n there, far I have seen him at many houses of this de scription. I never played tar others. It is a common prac tice fc.r persons to play for others, with a view of getting money from them. Mr. IVoodroffe played for himself. At rouge et noir, the person playing dues nut handle the cards, but stakes his money on which colour he pleases. I have always kept myself aloof from the company. 1 have cer tainly seen Mr. Woodroffa put down money far himself: distinctly he did. He generally was not a high player; he i . eid not stake more than four or five sovereigns at a lime. I cannot tell how many he put down at once; but he changed notes to the amount of 4W. Players played against each other at hazard, but at rouge et noir they always play against the bank. 1 have no doubt Oidfield was • partner in July or August, he used to come in. and sit with those ! who counted the money, at a late hour, haul. g another ea;a- hlishment to manage. Re-examined.—The house was handsnmelv kept, and every refreshment provided fur the tisit irs. The play '4- t ell till two or three in the morning. I never shared Wood roffe's winnings, for he never won. (% laugh.) I never joined with him .n any adventure et that house. Mr. E. !ACMES addressed the jury for the defendant. He contended that they could not rely on tit, memory of Mi. Smith, even if they believed him, and that he was further un worthy of credit, The LORD Cniry Jorrice thought it extremely hard, to say that, because a man had been so infatuated as to play ,he was not to be believed on his oath. If such a principle were established, the act must become a dead letter, as Wises could be proved by no other witnesses, The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 021.

BOW-STR EST.—Yesterday John Poole, about 15 yeses of age, was brongbt up for fin al examinadoo, charges with robbing his father of various articles of plate.• His fattier is an oil merchant, residing at Carmlea Town ; early in the present mo oh the prisoner absconded taking with him a quantity of silver spoons, a enudir stand, fish slice, and other pieces of plate; which, ashes father subsequentlydiseovered, he poienei the same day. Mr. Poole, after an anxious search of several days. found the prisoner, and had him brought to this Office, and com mitted for further examination. He had discovered ' that the prisoner had gone to many tradestneu and obtained goods by fiandulent pretences, and at be etas desirous. if [fossil/le. to aveil hero:fling himself the prosecutor, he determined to wi Old raw Ins own charge; but here an inserts' auntsble obstacle preeented itself ; the prisoner had o' taire 1 the goad.; in the sense, of his mother, and no inducement could prevail upon ber to come fora and •as a oit fleas to negative the pretence upon which she bad proenred the things.
