THE 14014011.—Lord Kira wished to know whether any thing effectual bail been done to prevent the forging I of Rink of England Notes. Lord Liverpool answered that the Royal Commission had produced a note which they thought inimitable; but that it happened with this as with every other note, that, is a short time, the person produced an imitation that tould not be distingnished from it!—So much for inimitable notes.—Lord fitNn next asked why the principle of the Waterloo and Dead Weight Stock Bill skin sot be carried further : and proposed a clause to that effect, which produced a great deal of laughter. Indeed this is a laughable affair from the beginning. iv THE COMMOHll.—Somebody presented a 'petition from Sudbury against Slavery in the West Indies : it wa• slid to be the petition of the Magistrates and Clergy. Sir Isaac COFFIN said there was an easy remedy for the eta ; namely, the Magistrates and Clergy of Sudbury might buy op the slaves of the West India Planters! This is a scheme which has certainly a good deal of novelty to reco•nmend it ; but it would not do; because what hive the Magistrates and Clergy to do with any slaves that they may have at present ? and we can assure Sir Isaac that the West India slaves must be a great deal better fed than the labourers of England now are. The Petition of Mr. GEORGE WHITE was present ed by Mr. Hume. It related to the dismissal of Mr. WHITE, and to the conduct of the collectors of taxes in the Kensington division. Mr. Ilcare moved for papers . upon the subject ; which seems to be of very great in }crest. Mr. Hume mentioned that from the Returns I yid on the table of the llouse, it would be found that there were frauds in the Collection of the Land Tax, in the Kensington Division and District alone, to the satountof FIFTEEN THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN POUNDS. This is a monstrous sum for ere district, and we shall endeavour to look a little into it. Innumerable swarms live in this way out of the estates and labour of the people. Mr. Home stated that Mr, WHITE had been dismissed, because be made a discoviry of these fronds. Not professedly; but that this was the ease in reality. It is high thine, then, that we look into this matter. There was a long debate in the Commons upon a motion of Mr. MACDONALD, rela tive to the papers on the negotiation ; but. as the De bate was adjourned, we shall make no remark upon it uu• til to-morrow. LORD JOHN RUSSELL'S MOTION. That this motion was treated in the manner that it wa: who can be surprised, when we reflect on the speech that preceded it. This speech contained, amongst other curious things, an euloginm on the " integrity" of Sir Jamas Lowriiza, the first Lord Lonsdale ! And, as if this were not enough, this Lowther was quoted as an authority in favour of Reform! Those who know any thing, must know what sort of feelings this was calcu lated to excite in men of sense. This " Lord John " has now two feathers in his cap; the eulogist of Sir James Lowther, and the liberator of Loper. The Lord John did not quote the " authority " of Lopez in fa vour of Reform; and yet, surely, be might have done it! Lopez has a twat practical knowledge of the sub ject. VIE Yorkshire people will keep their petitions at home another time, if this is.the way in which they are tiIIIPPINU INTELLIBENC E. tion to,the Jews : " I. is not Evils, who is at the head of the Regency. provided with full powers signed by Ferdinand's own hand, to establish a regency'. AVas not the signature of Ferdi nand to the paper procured through the French Ambassador at Madrid ? Art has not Eguia concerted with the French Ministry, both about the name which the new Government should take, the kind proclamation that it should issue, and the functions which it should exercise ? " th Have not the members of the new Supreme Junta of Spoilt and the Indies been nominated by the French Government "3. Is not the new Spanish Junta attached to the head quarters of the Duke of Angouleme 6. 4. Is it not pensioeed by the French Government ? Has it not been paid by Al. de Alartignac certain sums already, and k not a provision of 2.000,00 U of francs henceforward to be set apart for its support ? " 5. Did not his Royal Highness write to the Arehbishop of Tarragona. the Bishop of Valencia, and the Bishop of Urge', from Tolosa, between the 11th and the 15th of April, requiring those three prelates to come and occupy their places in the Junta established at his head-quarters? " 6. Dees not M. de Martignac, the King's Civil Com missioner with the Duke of Angouleine, fulfil the double capacity of adviser of his Royal Highness and Ambassador with the Junta ? " 7. Iles not M. tie Alartignac counselled the former, and obtained the consent of the latter, to allow no pro vincial Juntas, because they might clash with the Supreme Junta? " 8. Has not the Duke promised to establish this Junta at Madrid ? 9. Do not the French require submission to the Junta as the price of their protection ; and have there not been in stances of persons required to leave Paris because they re fused to acknowledge it? " Surely it is high time for the English Government to be awakened to the perfidious conduct of France in supporting, and at the same time appearing not to ac knowledge, the Regency. There will bb a curious denouement of this mystery when the French reach Ma drid. The Regency will then have the four Holy Alli anec Ambassadors, anti Ferdinand those of England and the United States. The Regency and French Govern ment mean, by the obnoxious articles in their proclama tion, to deter English capitalists from supporting Spanish independence.", • ""`" ~., . The following extract of a letter, dated the beginning of this month, front a young Englishneval officer in the South of France, to his brother in London, may serve to prepare our young men of spirit, who are disposed to sojourn io that country, with a view, like the writer, to toaster the language, and who are not indifferent to the honour of tire English name, for the sort of treat ment to which they may be exposed among the polite people WllO2l they go to spend their time and money : "f his country is naturally curious to know what part England will take. The Royalists contend, she will either remain neuter, or join France to put down the Spa nish Revolution ; the biberaux presume she will act tha tnetricallyopposite;butboth parties are unanimously of opi nion that England will play some underhand trick one way or other, in prejudice of France; and whether she is nomi nally for or against her, she will, by permitting her ships to tight under the Spanish flag against France, do all the mischief she can. This, with a thousand other unworthy conjectures against England, is con stantly in the months of these light-headed people. " I sotnetitnes fear you may have taken it inter your head (tidging from the favourable manwr in which I have often spoken of the French, and from the desire I have frequently expressed of remaining in this country, until I may be required to serve mine) that my patriot ism, if not lessened, may have somewhat cooled. law sure, however, if you knew my feeling, you would judge very differently of your brother—you would be convinc ed, that his love for his country is stronger, if possible, than ever it was before, and that he is cited by all his acquaintance in France, as a most enthusiastic Patriot; for every true Englishman is ten times more alive to the honour and glory of his country, when residing in a fo reign one, than when be inhabits the parent soil. I have never related to you the various disputes and knockdown quarrels I have had since my arrival inFrance,in defending the tight little island; but I shall now relate a circum stance which took place here a few days ago, which will serve, I trust, to fortify your mind against any opinion you might be induced to form in prejudice of my patri otism. I must commence by tellinl yon that an Eng lishman in France is constantly subject to hear disagree able things said against his nation—either in prejudice of the Government, which the French pretend is the most perfidious, dishonourable, and false in the world—against our army, who were always afraid to contend against theirs with equal number—against the talents of the great Wellington as a General,and his unworthy conduct at Paris—or against the dastardly and cruel manner in which French prisoners were treated in England, who they allege were half-starved, ill treated, despised, and even robbed of the little succour sent them by their rely lives from this country. Ido not pretend that these re marks are made in good society where one goes from invitation, the French being renowned for great pnlite• nets and urbanity, particularly towards foreigners. I have, notwithstanding, beard urny insinuations against 'England, of the nature 1 have pointed out, from the best bred men, but not said with an intention to insult, as they always premise their observation by saying, they respect Englishmen individually, and that it is only the conduct of oar Government towards France, which displeases theta; and which will ever occasion an inveterate hate to exist in France against England as a nation. But it is almost invariably at public places, such as theatres, and Tables Whole, that one meets with an infinity of young noisfeoxeumbs, and disappointed men (thrown out of place from commerce or from the army since the return of Louis) who, with oat any sort of restraint, exclaim against the English on purpose to excite them to quarrel. They have also re course to ridicule and coarse jokes on our nation, equally insulting, which cannot be heard with indifference by the most part of our countrymen, who from not speaking French readily and well enough to parry their remarks by an ingenious reply, have no means left but to demand satisfaction at once, or to let their ob tions pass as if unobserved. In the latter case, the Frenchman, with all his politeness, becomes more forward, overbearing and impertinent, aw!, if not checked in time stottl , l, as it were, eat you without salt. I have thought it necessary to make this preface, to pave the way for, what follows: ' I was dining at the Table (Mote, the other day, as usual, in company with sixteen persons, myself the only Englishman present. The conversation turning on the treat ment of French prisoners in England, a gentleman at table observed that an se maintence of his had been nearly killed by a bottle being thrown at his head, when captive in England, and incapable of resenting so dastardly a conduct. ' Oh!' exclaimed a person present, Voila un trait de cou rage Anglais !'—' Sir,' I observed, ` If any such circum stance ever occurred in my country, it is no proof of English courage, nor should one judge of a nation from the base con duct of an individual ; neither is it a proof of courage to exclaim against time courage of other countries, and vaunt one's own.'—' Perhaps,' replied he, with a significant air, ' you areone of those who vaunt yours.'—' I do not so,' I replied, ' and if you doubt my courage on that account, I am ready to give you reason to change your opinioninsulted when ever you please.' — 'Sir , ' he replied, you have me, and shall give me satisfaction;' to which I answered— ' with pleasure.' Almost all time table began to interfere, by saying,' Monsieur Angleis, vous avez tort.' This, per haps, emboldened my adversary, who, demanding an apo loy which he could not obtain, launcted at me with fury a blow in the face, which (it is perhaps unnecessary ta add) I immediately returned. I told him he should hear from sue. 'l'be only person present who contended that 1 was in the right was a fine young man of about 6 feet 4, an officer des Cuirassiers d'Orleans, whose regiment was here at the lime. lie contended that the conduct of my adversary de served chastisement, and said, in opposition to all present, if you want a second, A—, lam your man.' I was well pleased to find a volunteer on this occasion, who was pre sent at the quarrel ; for I had every reason to fear l should otherwise have found much difficulty to procure a secant!, as it rarely occurs that a Frenchman will side with an Englishman, (however right he they be) against one of his countrymen. On the morrow we met, among time ruins of the Arophitheat ra, where it was agreed we should toss up for the first shot, end lire in turn, taking aim as we pleased. without any word of c3mmand. I proposed we should fight at S paces, but this was not.permitted. We therefore took our ground at 12. Ilav:ng won the toss, I took a most de liberate aim at my adversary, and missed him ; upon which he tired in the air, saying, Je me ',elm pas firer sur un Anglais.' On this remark I told him, not in a boasting man ner, but with a sang froid and firmness which must have convinced him that an Englishman was no trifler—' is it from contempt tow ards me, that you say you will not fire en an Englishman ? have fired on you, and insist that you take your turn.'—' On sire contrary,' replied he, I respect yon now, because yon have acted as you ought. I did not know you before.'—' You see, Sir,' said my second, that an Englishman knows how to defend himself.' I'llus terminated the affair —I have since been told, that I had grazed his coat on the shoul der. and that my opponent had declared such to be the fact. Ido not, however, believe it, as the French are naturally inclined to fabricate in this way, nor did I perceive that I had touched him. It is pretended his con duct was so much the more honourable, in not firing on me, that he was In excellent shot. This may also be an untruth. I a d manamit that be conducted himself with coolness, and as reflecting upon.

The German papers of the 24th instant, which came to band this morning, mention that accounts have been re ceived from Scio, of the !

Extract of a letter from Seville, dated April 2 :—There Is no want of bulletins from the French Army in Spain. but a great want of intere.t in its movements and opera tions. The campaign itself goes on almost as slowly as the preparations. The road to Madrid is open and undisputed; it is the object of the French Generalissimo to reach that capital : yet his march appears as tardy, and his halts as lone as if he were advancing under the eyes of large armies and the apprehension of a pitched battle. Some inconside rable pieces have been taken by the French, but no impres sion has beep made —scarcely any attempted, upon the only two place; of real strength within the line of operations St. Sebastian and Panspelune. They will no doubt reach Madrid. But what will they have gained :—The possession of an open, an almost abandoned city, removed from the probable theatre of war in the approaching contest. It is said advantage will be taken of the occupation of the capi tal to erect a more imposing machinery of Government. But the force and value of such a Government would entire ly depend upon the strength of the French amt the weakness of the Constitntionallsts. It the latter have resources to re sist the foreign enemy, the soi-dirapit Government at Ma drid would be a piece of idle trumpery. In another point of view the arrival of the French at Madrid is of some inte rest. From that moment will probably commence the pro secution of active hostilities by the Spaniards. With what success, or rather with what portion of resources and spirit, I they will defend the libe rt y for which they swear to die, will then be in a train from which to form some judgment; but not till then. The Frenet bulletins say that the "libe rating army" is received with enthusiasm. It is not at all improbable that the unarmed and unprotected peasantry are passive, or that some even under the influence of stipers!l tion, and the Priests may hail the enemy. But it is quite certain, that the more respectable inhabitants —in fact, those who have any thing to lose and to save, ret re on the ap proach of the French. Not a soldier or even militiaman has gone over. Even the bands of the Faith do not become - - , re numerous. - :REGENCY IN SPAIN. The following followingseries of questions with re s p ect to the Regency in Spa in, appears in a morning paper, and is said to proceed front a well inforinvd quarter : " The French Government, when questioned with re spect to the new Spanish Regency, declare that they have nut recognized it. The question of its recognition is ex tremely important, both from the principles which it an- Pounces, and the authority which it assumes ; and it is to be feared tbatin this instance the English Government ' is duped by perfidious declarations, as it has been in ma ny others. That the Spanish Junta is acknowledged by the French Cabinet as the only legitimate Government in Spain, there cannot be the slightest doubt. Let the French lilinistets answer the fatewing questions, and then we shall see what is meant by its denial of mogul- FRENCH FEELING TOWARDS ENGLISHMEN IN FRANCE. SPORTING INTEWG ENCE.
