Pw'''' t CO mmis-rue ON ASSEISCD TAXES. On the motion of the CHA NCELLOR of the EXCHE QUER, the House went into a Committee on the Awa ited Taxes Bill. Tie CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER submit ted hicßesolutions for rartyieg his proposed reductions Into effect. In •Veer to a question from Mr. Oren fell, T 1.4 H 4 of the EXCHEQUER stated, that persons who compannded would have an equitable ads'antare. bothin the taxes absolutely repealed and those redacted:a imul, in reply to another rules ion from, we be lieve, Mr. Lister, he ihserved, in illustration of his view, that wheuran individual paying 1001. assessed tins was allowed. the 5 per cent. or the additional per mintage on the composition, be would, wider the new artangemeot, betortti.l-d to the same per courage on half die 1001. The Resolutions were raid—Report on Friday. eltiineolier of the Exchequer's (Ireland) Bill was ' rettortestand ordered tole mail a third time this day. (lie CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave notice that hn would move for a Commttteerlf the whole House on Friday on the Irish Assessed TaxesT 'and he • likessOe gave notice that he would, en biouttiy next, ntove for a Committee on the Sinking Fund 'Act. fith a vimv ti t laying before them his new plan relotive Yu that subject... • "'MS'S War exxstoess, IRELAND. • . , interposition of Parliament, with the hope of calming the existing irriution—(bee, hear) He hail left Ire land very lately, and be was sorry to add, he left the two parsecs in a state of temper and disposition not be other wise allayed. He was certain, whether he adverted to the mashies of his Hon. Friend the Attorney General for' Ireland, ur in the interests of the King's Government. or to the necessity to tramptillise the present agitation in Irehted, (hear) it was of the highest importance that the discuss . o.i should not be delayed. It was desirable to ascertain who the parties were who had an interest in sarponement. The house could obtain no information (rein doeuments.—(Hear, hear.) It would he ne eessary to , insole-e into the causes which produced the state arthinga new existing in Ireland.—(Nest, hear.) The house, without these papers, was fully competent to proceed to use discussion, and with such great inter. ests at issue be hoped it would be pressed forward.— (Hear, heart) Mr. CKOK ER observed, he saw the two first motions agreed to with considerable pain. He shoald have felt it his duty to have objected, did he not fearthtt it might have been deemed presumptitoos. A question connected with the administration of justice in the Courts of Law was one with which that house scarcely ever interfered without votive, or acceded to as a matter of Course. It woul I be much more consi-tent with the views of the Legislature, and compatible with the usage of Parliament, that a notice should be given of the intention to move for these documents, and on that motion to take the pre. 3saan*ry discussion. He thought tbat was the more ex pedient course to take on the remaining document, rather than to estat.lish the dangerous precedent of interfering with the proceedings of the Courts of Law, as it were per salt etas. Air, BROWNLOW stated, that lie that day submitted to the Secretary of State for the Home Department (Mr. Peel) and to the Secretary for Ireland (Mr. Gonlburn) the motions which he had made, and he learned from ' both those Gentlemen, that they saw no objection to the pro faction of these documents. He had also submitted Ursa to his Majesty's Attorney for Ireland, in the House slat evening, and by him no objection was made. He, therefore. could not see either that any difficulty existed 'or blame attached to him for the course he had taken. (hear, bear !) It was his intention after he had obtained these preliminary and formal motions to fellow them up by an ulterior measure. He wished he could have fixed upon an immediate day for the discussion, as he was ap prrh-nsive lest it might he snpposed, as the question had slept eft long. that the silence in that Loose would be con armed into its sanction of those proceedings. It was his wish to bring the question forward on the earliest con venient day after the ensuing recess. He should that night look over the paper to ascertain bow the business of the house was fixed, and endeavour to fix • day as near is possible to the 17th of April, for which day the question relative to the Roman Catholics stood. air. ABERCROMBY, though he felt sorue difficulty as to the manner of disposing of this question previously to the ultimate discuesien, yet could not acqu'esce In the objections of the Hon. Secretary of the Admiralty as to the danger of the precedent. Were the legal proceedings still pending there might be great impropriety in acqui (seeing, without notice, in the motion ot the Den. Member for the county of Armagh. Bat it was admitted that these proceedings were terminated, and therefore the oh jeclon did not apply. The difficulty he felt was, how, simply on these papers, the Hon. Mover could ground his ulterior measure. Were it for a defect of legality, he then might; bat as the charge was now moved of their unconstitutional nature, it would be necessary to go into tine consideration of the whole case—of the causes which led to the present state of things in Ireland (hear.) The Hon:Mover would therefore see, that even when be had gut tbiie documents, he had gained no step in his progress to his ulterior measure. He (Mr. A.) thought that the mere plan co u roe was to take the preliminary discussion,ou eth ch he should found his ul•eriar measure, which he supposed to be a vote of censure, on marine. for the do cements: There was another difficulty which weighed much with Lint, and which he begged to im press ea the consideration of that House, no twitter what his sentiments were, whether frierldly or hosed* to the Roman Catholics, namely, that the discussion on the late transactions in Ireland should, ball means, he dis cassed previously to the time fixed f or the consideration of that moat insportatit question. Ii was Lis firm convic tion, and he thought it must be that of every Hon. Metu bit, that it was essential to the best interests of Ireland a 6.1 orthe einp4v, as well as to the grave deliberation of the Catholic claims, that the recent transactions should be drat invireti into by that House (hear, hear!) Mr. BKOWNLOW'said he never thought it necessa ry, upon tnoving fur papers of notoriety and of public re card, so state the'specilic reasons for his motion ; he also ratted that Hates his intention that the discussion of the qasetion should precede that on the Catholic Claims.— Mot ion granted. . • • siststax ENLISTMENT RILL. Mr. BROUGHAM stated, that in consequence of a do mestic afiliction, his Noble Friend, (Lord Altborpe) who had given notice of a motion for a repeal of the Foreign Rplistment Bill, was not able to attend, and. it devolved cut him to withdraw the notice of that motion ; and, on account of the important statement which had been made en the subject that night, he wished to postpone it gene tiny [or tire present. Mr. 11L31F, said, lie was flit aware that any ()Median wn•ild Inc jaken to the motion which he was about to sub mit.• it .a pp ra red hy paper.; which Ind been laid before Parl;aanenr lilt Session, that awe was a sum of 12781, paid as pensions or retired allowances in Ireland, to per• eons deu moinated lkiode-Mayors of Yeorninry in that country. He wished this matter explained. ' lie was not aware that any officers of volunteer corps ever 'et:rived Jt tlfepay, tit . by the returns of last Sesainns, it appeared that there was an amount of 400,01'01. paid in pens'.ons and satiric, in that ►art of the empire. With respect to the pensions immediately in Ide vie', hp %%idled to ulcer. taln to the first place, whether they were granted by pro. per anthoti"; and in the serond, whether the indivi duals enjoying them were inch as wcr • properly entitled ta receive them ? If the house referral to the Act of th.• :al•b Geo. 111. cap. 3, they would find that there were nn still 1•c• alinw"t-es grimed ender it, nail in what light 14 t;:t1 the pensions to Which he alluded be considere - rfATES but as military allowances? The Honourable Member was then proceeding to touch upon salaries and pensions in the Customs and Excise, and to specify some iudivi dual cases, when he was called to order by Mr. GOULBURN, who said be understood the Hen. Member did intend•o confine himself to the volunteer al lowances, and ought not to travel out of thatsubject, for the purpose of bringing forward persons superannuated in other dep atments. Mr. HUME then moved, that a return be laid before the house of the names of all persons who received pen , sions or retired allowances in the yeomanry department in Ireland, with an account of the nature and length of their service, also copies of the certificates of infirmity, with the names of the medical examiners, the dates of the certificates ; the amount of pensions granted, the date of their commencement, and the authority on which they were grounded. Mr. GOULIILTRN assured the house that, as to the papers moved for, he had ne objection to grant them, in order that the question might come fairly before Parlia ment ; but he could not omit the opportunity of calling the attention of the house to a charge which the Hun. Member had thrown out against the character of a brave aid meritorious officer on a firmer evening, and which duntained the unfounded Imputation that the Officer in question received a pension upon which he had no pro per claim. The officer alluded to was Major E. Collis, Brigade-Major of Yeomanry, and the charges made against him by the honourable member were three : first, that he was out fairly of age to receive such a pen• sion; secondly, that he had served a very limited period ; and thirillv, that he was in as good bodily health as the hon. member himself. Now, what were facts? Why, that Gallant Officer had joined the army in 1776 (hear, hear!). In that year be joined his regiment in Allltri ea, and in the year forowing received a severe wound. Now it was clear that any one who possessed less skill io figures than the hon. member, might discover that this officer was far from being a young man ; indeed, at the time when he first received the allowance, he hail been 45 years in the service (hear, hear !), and he had been thirt-en years acting as Brigade• Major of Yeoman ry. He could also tell the hon. member, that the Irish Government was not in the habit of granting such pensions without the regular medical examination, and a knowledge of ,the infirmity of the pensioner. The Right Honourable Gentleman then proceeded to read the medical certificates of the infirmities of Major Collis, in which it was stated that he was gouty and paralytic, and he then put it to the Hon. bla.nber if there could he a :mkt deserting case of pension, both from length of W ilco and infirmity (hear !). Mr. HUME expressed his confidence that the House WoOld suppose him incapable of willingly tusking so un justifiable a statement as that imputed to him. The fact was, that the case which the Right Honourable Gentle man itated, was not the same as that which he (Mr. Hume) had mentioned. He had on the evening alluded to, with the paper in his hand, specified but two names out of nine, one of which certainly was that of the o:fi cer in question, who, according to that printed documeut, was Major Collis, receiving half mond 10 years Brigade Major; he objected tothe allowanceond saw no authority for it; unless it was declare! that Major Collis was not a military man, they might as well say lie was a WOlll4ll (a laugh). He knew not whether the law to which he had referred was differently construed in Ireland ; but he understood it to be against the claim. But now, he would ask, what confidence was to be placed in the Re turns of the Right Honourable Gentleman, when those Returns stated that Major Collis had served but ten years and the Right Honourable Gentleman told them he bad been thirteen years a Brigade Major. The other name to which he (Mr. Hume) had adverted, was that of Brigade-Major Bridgman. At the time he received the information respecting this officer, he was requested to uppeal for the truth of it to the Honourable Member for Galway ; but he did not now see him in his place. What he was given to understand was, that that Officer had hot the plea of being incapable from infirmity, of dis charging Ills duties, as he was in as good health as him self, and shout as young as be (Mr. Hume) was. This was what he said, and he observed the unmake w. • had been made in the newspapers the next morning, and wrote to the Editors to correct it. GOULBURN said, that the Hon. Member, in alluding to the case of another officer, at present was as unfortunate as he had been in the former instattee. If he nderstoad him right, he said that Major Bridgman was rather a young nun, built would he allowed, that as be had served in South Carolina in ntd). he must be ad vanced in years.—(Hear, hear.) He had also served be tween It/ and 15 years as a Brigade Major, but neither did he receive the retired allowance without full and , frequent proof that he was entitled to it front in fi rmity. He had fallen from his horse in an apoplectic fit in the discharge of his duty, he suffered a long illness in con sequence,and on the eel tificate of Dr. Itennie, than whom no medical officer was snort capable and willing to guard the public against abuse,, he was declared to have a deter- initiation of blood toThe head, with occasional lois of sight, and other apoplectic symptoms, an .l was justly en.' fitted to the retired allowance.—(Hear, hear.) The motion was then granted. Mr. HCM E, after a few prefatory observations on the existing abuses in the Land-tax collection, moved that there be laid before the house a return of the assessments of the Land Tax not exonerated in the county of Surrey, daring the lait twen'y years: stating the amount as sessed, the amount collected, and the amount paid into the bands of the Receiver-General ; as also the amount of the surplus of each year, with a statement of the items, if any, of expenditure, and the authority by which they were su appropr i ated ; together with a statement of the place where the surplus was now deposited ; distin guishing the districts, and the names of the collectors and commissioners. After a few words from Mr. WARRE and Mr. LUSH INOTON, the motion was agreecito. On the motion of Mr. HUME, and after a few observatlo,ns from Mr. N. CALVRItT, an Account was ordered, to be laid before the bones of the amount collected in the pa. fish of St. Saviones, Sosth wank, or any other parish, under the denomination of Stock Tax, independent of, and separate from, the Land Tax; with the dares of the commencement of the payments of the authorities tinder which they were paid, of the amount collected every year, an 1 of the purposes to which it h►d been applied. On the motion of Mr. HUME, an Account was also ordered to be laid before the honseof the nam-s of all Collectors of the Land or Assessed Taxes, who also acted as Commissioners fur those Taxes.

COCRT OF KINU'S BEXCOI, FED.-21. 'Middlesex Adionrue I Sittings before the Lord Chief Justice and Special Juries. THE KING r. TIIJMS BIONOI.D, ESQ. SENIOR. This eras an indictment azsinst the defendant,. Direc tor of the National Union Fire Association, of ttridKe- :erect t Wiwi:Crisco, fur alleged, wilfal and eorr.ipt per- • assigned upon an :slower to a 11111 in ebAneery, him by his co.drusters and Directors, in irr der to compel him to make good An investmentof 111,0001. which he had promised to make in Government Securi ties, to form 4 capital fund for the new Association, which he himself had projected, according to a clause introduced into the deed of settlement, with Ids privity sod kiwi - ledge. In the tHeadant's answer, tl.e a!lega- Lions in the bill were denied by him, and he positively swore that he knew uotLitf of the clause respecting the W,V(101., or .that he bad ecrr promised to invest that money as put of the Fouls of the Society. The trial of this case lasted from balf-past nine in the morning, until thiee in the afternoon. t . Vitnesses were galled in support of the assignments of perjury. The LORD Cuter JUSTICE delivered an impartial charge to the Jury, who immediately found the defend ant Utility. Tag KING V. BENfIoW. This was an indicttuent fur pubiiebing a wicked, filthy, and obscene libel, in an old French novel, called the Chevalier de Faublas. _ The prosecution WAS conducted at the instance of the Vice Suppression Society, by Me. Ountirev, Mr. ADJk• Po us, and Mr. 0. filanntorr ; the defame was con lasted by Mr. C. Putt-Lies. Mr. ticaxxv, in opening the case fir the prostitution, abstained fr.stai reading the porairPo of th e work is question, which were the subject of prosecution. The work has been published in sixpenny uneasen by the defendant, who keeps a small book shop in tlastleatreet, Leicester-square. Two persons named Itiginsa, father and son, agents of the Vice Society, proved the sale of the work. con-ist ing of 4 volumes, with plate+, from which various isolat ed passages were selected and set out on the record. The greater number of these passages were considered so of fensive that they were not read, but copies of the work w. re banded to the Jury for their private inspection. The remainder of ;he passages were afterwards publicly read to save the time of the Court. The case for the prosecution being closed, Mr. Potwar', in losable and ingenious address to the Jury, urged the folly and even wickedness of motto. lions of this nature, which had a necessary tendkerplo bring into notice, and to disseminate works of this de. scription, which, even soppoainr them to be vicious and obscene, would pass unnoticed but for this advertising me dium, which gave a keenness to public appetite, but too prone to gratifications of this sort. The LORD CHIN/ JCIITICIi slimmed up the case for the Jury, and gave it as his opinion in point of law, that this was en obscene publication, but left it to them to exer cise their own judgment upon tie subject. The Jury retired for scone time, sod on their return found the defendant Guilty. JURY.COURT, EDINBURGH, FEN. 19. LIILL.~-11TOY V. THE SCOTSMAN. The present action arose out of a circusetance which orcurrsd at the great Partlie.sn meeting, in ISA).

RonnERY OP TIC EXITS, COACU —William Thomas (a respectable-looking man dressed in black), and Jake Baker were indicted for stealing a parcel, containing 200 promis sory notes of IL each, forty f 4 notes, and 3:28 11. notes, the property of Messrs. Sparites and Co. bankers at Ex eter. —The evidence for the prosecbtion has already apperd in the police reports. The prisoners; when called on for their defence, both declared their innocence. Baker, the guard, put in a written defence. in which he alluded to the fact, that he was the first to give information to the London bankers of the robbery, and adverted to the anxiety whioh he had from the first evinced for the detection of the offenders. lie admitted that he was culpable in taking the parcel from his coat, in which it was sewn, and putting it in the seat of the Coach. Ills defence also represented that he (Baker) had bad so many opportunities to escape, and yet had not at tempted it. lie had made a second journey to Exeter be fore he was apprehended on this charge. A great variety of witnesses for Baker were called to character and to fact, It was proved that Baker expressed great anxiety when it was known that the parcel was lost. That same night he went to liankey's, and acquainted them of the robbery : the next morning he went again, and was not apprehended until long subsequently. The witnesses .to elieracter spoke extremely favourably of him. .i:The mus ter of the coach had travelled twice from Exeter to give the prisoner a character. The prisoner Thomas called no witnesses either to cha racter or fact.—The JOry acquitted Baker, and found Thomas Guilty: SHOCKING ATTEMPT TO NICRDER.—Ont readers will recollect, that in December last, Wm. Mead, of Burnis tun, a village about four miles north of Scarhro', was convicted, in the Court of King's liettek, through the ex ertions of Alr. Js. Law, of wilful and corrupt perjury in the evidence he gave against several persons in the late smuggling cause. This circumstance appears to haw induced Mead to form the diabolical intention of taking the life of Mr. Law, through whom. as we have stated, his perjuries were bronght to G alit. Accordingly, the night of Thursday last was fixed upon by tide revengeful j asossio to perpetrate his. atrocious resolve. Mr. Law would have to pass by the house of his enemy on his re turn home front the market, and. this was to be the op portunity for satiating his horrid thirst for blood. Ho,• ever, by some weans or other, Mr. L. had received intiuta• tion ofthe threatened danger, and acoirdingly delayed his return until between three and four o'clock on Friday morning; judging doubtless, that by that time the eye of malice woe! t be closed, and the agitation of a revenge ful spirit allayed. He accordingly set out, accompanied by a few friends, at that early hour, and when he passed 3leatt'shonse he happened to be a little in advance of his party. Whatever hopes Mr. Law might have formed, the hour was come which was to prove them fallacious.— Mead, " Dice a srannch murderer, etc:tilt' to his purpose", and waited for his victim through the lonesome stillness of the night—and now, with too snre an aim, diieharged the murderous ball, which entered his shoulder above the bone, and it is much to he feared will be fa.al in its con• sequences. Mr. Law did not immediately feel the injury he had sustained, hut as loon as it was discovered i hat a wound had been indicted, the party rode forward with os much haste its their circumstinees would admit,. and without giving any alarm, to the house of Mr. Mils worth, who formed one of the company. As the retiring ' clamp of the horses died away, and no sounds of alarm were heard, Mesd concluded he had missed his man and proceeded unconcernedly to his rest. After Mr. Law had been escorted to Mr. Dodsworth's, the party home. diately returned to secure the assassin, and procu r i ng as sislance, they halt little diffi i culty n making him their risoner. Mead hat since undergone an etaluina inn, in the coursed which it appeared, that there nas kiln thew visa in the house, of the name of belt, who has also ' been apprehends:!; bat the final result of th-ir examina tions we bare not yet been able to ascertain.
