Tt seems it is determined, that there shall be a Corn Bill immediately brought into Parliament. We have sot heard the precise provisions of it, but a Morn ing Paper says, " We understand the principle is to fix such a duty as would afford the same protec lion to the grower in 1815, as he derived in 1804— er, in other words, to ascertain the difference in the 'lkea money, and in the burthens that bear on the people or Oteat Britain, between the one period and the other." this will be no easy question to settle. p, the law of 1804., the average price of corn in fig , r mire districts bite which the kingdom is divided, Burin; the quarter•fseux the 1 . 5i1t November last to titc , 15th instant • wilt fie the importing price for the next quarter, from the fsth February to the 15th d MI. If it should be found by the returns that ti i p average price, for the last quarter, has been ender 63 shillings per quarter, then wheat cannot be imported for the whole of the next quarter, from any place except British America, under 25 shillings per gaarter. There is an additional war duty of Bs. 4d. Which, by the 51st of the King, is to expire six ponths after the ratification of th. definitive Treaty wf Peace. We know not whether that will apply to de American war: if it should be so construed, then te impart duty for three months to come would be Net France, Flanders, Holland, the Elbe, and Bal. sic, &c. 11. 13s. 4d: per quarter. If the average for 0 last three months should be found to have been re 635. but under 665. then the import duty for e neat three months would be 2s.

The Windsor Castle packet brie 9s intelligence, that one of our brigs of war had been chow! into Gibraltar by two American frigates.

'be Duke of WeLLINGTON reached Carlshue on t 27th scat. on his *ay to Vienna. Mr. GR V ATTAM, e understand, will present the thrdie Petition % the finale of Commons. In the o tof I.ord Donouounowe not retracting his re f al, the Petition will be probably presented in the nit by the Duke of Sussex. I n ll Parsec* Mud.; Esq. M. P. Chairman of the Committee appointed by the House of Commons last %anion, to investigate the Foreign Corn Trade of this country, is arrived in town to attend his duty is Parliament. to a paragraph which appeared in the STATESMAN (lane days ago) it was stated, that a merchant in the city had detected an illicit iotercoure between his wife and one of his partners. We are desired to de clare, that it was a brother of his partner, and not a partner, who was so detected. Arrears of the Property Tea are, it is said, con stantly pouring in. There is a talk of seising feet reillioo of the Sinking Fund. Mr. D'Esrestes, who fell in the late duel with Mr. O'Cox:vrt.t., was an officer on board the Beet as the Nore during the mutiny, and distinguished himself by his courage and loyalti upon that occa sion. In the Court of Requests, on Monday sennight, at Boston, a cause of considerable interest to the in- Laigtants of that place was decided : A tradesman sum moned a person from whom be had taken, after book ing hours, two of Mr. WILFJRD'S pound bills on the Saturday evening, after which the batik did not again open ; when the Clerk of the Court and all the Cont. mitsioners present being of opinion that they were I -tumble, awarded accordingly. From this de cisint, 'it appears, that all bills of the same bank, l ail away after five o'clock on that evening, are re cc.itrable from the person who so pails them. Another most extraordinary affair has happened in nightlife, which• is likely to engage the public atten tion as mach, perhaps, as the story of the unhappy Rossasaay. A Peeress was detected on Mon-, day last, in a situation the most unequivocal, by her in.iiired Lord, who, in the height of passion discharged • 1)401 at the inamorata, and shot him through the arm, which is said to be fractured. It happened near Staines. It made the universal subject of con e• rsstion last night at the Opera, and, therefore,. coitorahnent is impossible.
