Public loo m for eharitable porpoises, when it got Inse the loa d, o f persons, was too often a job. The grant ec igisally for this institution was considerably less *an the sum now proposed, and he expressed a baps thsiodardat it would at least be brought back to the rope Is'A ~ „ Mr. AsJOHTEN protested against the chat. uto d e by the Hon. Member for Aberdeen, who designee , a d tie charitable institutions of Ireland as jobs. la D a blis more distressed objects were found than in um. age , so d it was important to have charitable Institutions. The Hes. Member was wrong in supposing those I nat. titions were mere "jobs." They were fairly and her sine w conducted. Mr.IIUNIE, is explanation, said, be did not tees the" wor d Kj o b" epos his own authority. He had received letter from a Noble Lord, who stated that public sub. w i pt iaus for charitable purposes in Ireland, fell sheet o f ti desired object, and became a " job." Several Members exclaimed—Name ! Name ! Mr. ROI E gave the name of Lord Cloncurry as the tither gib. letter. Mr. DAWSON did not consider the letter a author i t y to induce the house to consider all chants i t lestitedeas as a job. She Resolution was finally agreed to. The sow of 30,000/. was then voted for the expense d the Foundling Hospital, Dublin. For the House of Industry, Ireland, • £92,600 giof. was proposed as retired allowances to the late ()overturn of the Hoene of Industry. Sir JOHN NEWPORT opposed the grant, on the posed that those persons retired, and for doing nothing bad more than double the salary paid to the person who discharged the duty. Mr. C. ()RANT expressed himself unwilling to press the resolution if the House felt a disposition to resist it, awl consented to withdraw the motion. He then moved that 5,500/. be granted to defray the *gripe of the Lunatic Asylum. Me.

Rite objected to it. Mr. U. Brant said he had not expected any objection to this resolution, the Institution being ore which Aid much good. It was conducted open the most liberal principles; out of 7000 scholia-, half of them were Ito utt.n Catholics. Mr. S. RIVE said, the Establishment three years ago oreasioned an expence of 3000/. • now it was 60001. The increase was unaccounted for. lie admitted that the lastitntion was conducted on liberal principles, but it was obvious to him that a Church of England Establishment for education, was most injurious to the Catholic population of Ireland. This was, however, a grant which might he reduced. A great part of the grant was for books which could not be circulated with. out great danger. Colonel BARRE supported the motion. The Roman Catholic Clergy, in many instances, had not objected to these schools. On the contrary. they had enjoined the children to go to them. 'T'h• object was not to make converts. Air. 8. RICE read an extract from the 14th Report of the t ommittee of Inquiry in Ireland, in which st was %tate.' that no system of education ought to be adopted iti I relan I which could interfere with religious feelings. Al r. R. Al ItTI pported the motion. IIL'AIE said the Institution bad taken a new cha racter. Sir J. NEWPORT supported the objections of hit Hon. Friend (Mr. Hume.) He did not doubt that the statement made by the Hon. Member opposite (Cul. Barre) respecting these schools, was perfectly correct, as far as they had come under his supervision. list I it did not follow, that because be bad not been wit- 1 nest of it, there were not some parishes where the in terference stated by his Hon. Friend was not objected to. Mr. HUME stated that be should not oppose the Tote on the present occasion, but if it were not re tiered one-half next year he certainly should. The tote was then agreed to; and after another of lO,i 1101. fur the Green Coat Hospital at Cork had been agreed to, the Chairman reported progress, and ob tained leave to sit again on Monday. Mr. GORDON gave notice, on behalf of an Hon. Friend, then absent (Mr. Grenfell) that it was his in tention, on Monday, to take the sense of the House on the grant of 20,0001. to General Desfouraeanx. Mr. HUME asked the Chancellor of the Exche quer whether it was his intention to persevere in a vote of 50,0011/. to the poor Clergy ? If so, he should upper it hi every stage, and take . the sense of the house upon it. The CHANCELLOR of the EHCHRQUER de clared his intention of persevering in this vote. Sir J. NEWPORT gave notice that he should early in the next Session move fir.* a Committee to inquire iota the appropriation of certain fends granted by Queen Anne for the appointment of Hospitals in England and Ireland. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, in an swer to a question from Mr. Home, fixed Monday next far bringing up the Report on the Grout to the Duke of Clarence. The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at half-past one.

WITI " 111111 LONDON: kIITSDAT /TIMING, JUNI 16, 11111. —oar-- Paris papers to the 14th inst. have arrived this morning. According to lotelligeace from Madrid of the sth, the Captain of the Spanish galliot, ['Armenia, arrived at Cadiz, has announced that hostilities had recommenced when he left Guaira, between Bolivar and the Royal troops. The frigate La Li:cm had es corted Ida 40 leagues to the North of Puerto Rico. The Sittings of the Spanish Cortes have recently been very animated. The Political Chief of Burgos bas announced to the Government that Merino had again made his appearance on the points formerly oc• cupied by him, and that he had seised a military post and an officer of the regiment of Catalonia. Previous to the reading of this despatch the Cortes had coin , to declare in a :h eontaiued the The 31i 'sister of the subject of the . Empecinado isposal, and that In the Sitting of read some de- Several Deputies to Vera Crus, to obtain a snspension of hostilities between I turvidc and the royal troops, by proclaiming that the Cortes were about to discuss the propriety of extending the Consti tution to America. This proposition had no result.— It was ultimately left to Government to adopt such measures as might tend to the pacification of the country. An article from Vienna of the Ist instant says, we have received, by way of 011ess-i, letters trout Constan tinople of the 12th May, which contain a confirmation of the reports of atrocities having been committed on the Weeks. A few days previous to their commence meat, an order had been given by the Sultan to de stroy all the Christian Churches in the capital. The Turks commenced the business by seizing upon ever► precious article that they contained j after which the Temples of Ood were given op to all kinds of profatra don on the part of the infidels; who set lire to them, and such things as could not be carried away or burnt were broken to pieces. Sixteen churches were de stroyed, and not a vestige left. The Russian Ambas sador, and all the Christians, in vain attempted to pro- cure a revocation of the order from the Sultan liab mond. They were answered that the lirand Seignur was absolute master in his Empire, and that the miler was given from political motives. Private letters fully corroborate the detail• of these scenes of horror. The French Chamber of Deputies was on Wednesday occupied with a continuation of the discussion on the Law of Finance.

An article from Peste, dated May 2S, says the post which arrived yesterday from Constantinople brings no satis factory account of the state of that city (10th May.) —The fury of the 'lurks had abated since the depo sition of the Vizier, but there was still some fear of new excesses. If the Turks in the provinces should ! obtain any fresh advantages, a general massacre of the Greeks residing at Constantinople seems inevitable.— Among the persons last executed is a brother of the last Charge d'Affaires at the Austrian Court, Mauro- Joni, who was beheaded. The Greek inhabitants of Constantinople are codes- Touring, as much as possible, to escape by night, and a considerable number had succeeded. They go to the Archipelago. The house of Mr. Fontaine, Coun sellor of Legation to the Russian Embassy, had in fret been plundered and burnt, but it appears to have been by accident, since, according to the latest accounts, the most friendly understanding prevailed between the Torte and the Russian Ambassador, Baron Stroganoff, and the latter bad renewed the assurance of the strictest neutrality on the part of Russia. For the rest there cannot be the slightest idea of an insurrec tion of the Greeks in the capital, they being wholly destitute of arms. The late Patriarch, who was so infamously murdered, having, when be issued his Ana themas, caused the arms of all the Oreeks to be de manded from them, and delivered to the Sultan. The Sultan, of his own authority, appointed a new Patri arch ; but as the Porte has hitherto left the right of election to the superior Greek Clergy, reserving only the right of confirming the election, the new Patriarch was, under these circumstances, considered by the Greek Christians to have been forced upon them by the lafidels. Meantime, however, it is said, that the newly appointed Patriarch died the best day from fright at his elevation, which took place ander the most inauspicious circumstances. Accounts from &satin of the 22d instant, say, that a report was spread at Belgrade that the Turkish corps bessiging Joannina, under the command of Jesse( Pa sha, bad been entirely destroyed, and that Jassaf him self was among the killed. At the same time, we best again from swims gaugers of the murder of Ali Pa sha, sad the seismo of his treasures ►y the Greeks; bat as this news has been spread ler these throe weeks, sad is mot osailresed by authentic intelligence, It sod still be cousiderod as doubtful. .• • ft • The followhig Peitelamation was poblielied at Corfu' es the I tth May * B.

MAT 49.--Oar Fair, which is now finished, may be called a tolerably good fair. There were not loopy Greeks, bat the merchants from Brody and some HMGleas made large purchases of silk and other expen sive articles. The English bad, on the whole, a good fair, though some sold large quantities of goods very cheep, The Wool Fair is now begun. Fine wool being employed in so many articles of an expensive de scription, maintains last year's prices. he stone (22110 has been sold hitherto at 34 to 40 six dollars. Mist dling wool is the cheapest in proportion. Coarse wool maintains its price. The Bill for the repeal of the tax on Fannin! Horses was read a second time in time House of ('ow. mons last eight, on an understanding' that it would not, in that stage, meet with opposition. Time only difference of opinion elicited on the occasion was rela tive to the day on which time Bill should be cou tttt itted. Monday next was at length appoiuteil, as it ap peared desirable that the country should have the decision of the House on this question early. Am equal degree of anxiety has been felt respecting the Report of the Agricultural Committee, from which so much had been anticipated; lint important as its con tents must he, not only to the Agricultural, but to every interest in the country, no day has hitherto been stated on which it is to Le presented. In the Coin mittee, the differences are known to be so wide as to occasion many divisions. When the repeal of the Horse Tax was first proposed there, it is understood to have been voted by Its to 7, the Marquess of I,n N - DoNIICRIMT, after using every effort to carry his point, having been in a minority on that as on several other occasions. Mr. (loot n, the Chairman of that Corn usittee, on seconding Mr. Cuewas's motion in the Monroe, on Thursday evening, took occasion .1 observe that it had been time instruction of time Committee to move for the repeal of the tax in question, but that, in the mesa time, the Committee had changed their mind. The state of the case is reported to have been this. Even after time Chairman was directed to move for the repeal, and time Committer had adjourned, the motion ors for some reason or other deferred, and time resolution rescinded. We have not learnt by what particular contrivance this effect was produced, but we have witnessed instances enough of the dexterity that could manage it. From this in stance we may infer the difficulties that must have re tarded the completion of the report, and be enabled to conjecture the character of the expected document. If after all, the Committee be net prepared to propose some effectual scheme for redressing the agricultural com plaints (and that they are we cannot possibly conceive) great will bethedisappointment of Farmers. If on time contrary the Committee shall recommend any extraordi nary measures of protection, as it is cal led, to agricultural interests, the impression it will produce on others will be equally serious. 'floe truth i-, the state of public affairs is so involved that no relief can be devised. short of a rednction of the national expenditure, witillint shifting the grievances of which one class complains upon the shoulders of another already sinking mulct its burthens. The Marquess of Lut►donderry is stated to he con fined to his bed with a violent attack of the goon. The Earl of Donoughmore has entered ■ protest in the House of Lords. dated 13th June, N2l, against the determination of the House to res•eice the report then, of the Bill for the regulation of the proceedings in the Courts of Law in Ireland, it hick his Lordship had proposed the postponement of for six months.

MILITARY PEACE EXTARLI'IHMENT.-11 is nn derstood, that the arrangement of the officer•, accord ing to the new and reduced org.inirttion of the Peace Establishment, was completed at the close of last week, and will shortly be announced. The Board of General Officers has separated. General Scott has already left the city, and General Gaines will depart for thesonth in a few days. General Brown is yet here, and, it is supposed, will remain for some time longer : indeed, it is understood, thetas there is now but one Ma jor-Geseral in the army, his head quarters will be at Washington, being a central position, and allowing of frequent aad prompt communication with the war de- partment. A dreadful instance of retaliation is stated to bare been exhibited lately by the Greeks upon the Turks.— Two Turkish frigates, of fifty guns each, and four brigs, bad sailed from Constantinople, in order to sup port the operations of the forces destined against the lwaurgents of the Mores. These ships were given up to the latter by the Greeks, who formed theusajority of the crews of the squadron, The Turk. on board, it number about mine hundred, were at first landed, as prisoners, on the island of Milo ; but as soon as the murder of the Patriarch was known, the Greeks as- Grilled them to their vengeance. The plan proposed in Spain for conciliating the South Ameriean ladepeudents appears to bare been completed. It is suhalitted that there shall be three Statism' of Cortes in America, and that the King shall appoint to each a delegate, charged with execs tire power.
