By a letter from Madrid, dated. the 12th of May, we have learned the mum and extent of the recent move ments in the Spanish Cabinet. BA Lt.rsre nos, the Minister ist Finance, is displaced. He is succeeded by Vince NTz. CAMPO SANGRADO is appamted to the War Department, Mid ARJONA is to be Minister of Grace and Justice. It *odd be ridiculous to hazard any conjectures as to the Issas ssr consequences of these changes. Under a system to purely absolute as that of FERDINAND VII., and with • &weir of his character, no administration, howevee *tank disposed and ably gifted, could render any im portant service to their country. There must be some is atitutions for the defence of person and property, baton Spain can raise herself from the misery by which alms is overwhelmed; but such institutions are incompatible with the arbitrary reign of the rey neto. Several petitions were presented last night in the House of Lords for and against the Equitable Loan Bank, and after their Lordships NO una race agreed to the provisiai recommended from the Throne for the Princess Ai tams. DRIN• and Prince GEORGE, Counsel were heard against the Bill for the incorporation of that Company. On the , question whether the Counsel should be called in, there was a division. The numbers were, 30 for the noisy ask so against it. At nine o'clock, the further bearing elf Counsel was postponed till Monday. In the House at Commons, the order for the further consideration of theJ report on the Irish Elective Franchise Bill was discharged, in consequence of the rejection of the Catholic Relief Bill in the Upper House. A hope was expressed that the Elective Franchise Bill might be brought forward again, as a substantive, and not an auxiliary measure. The Royal Meszage was afterwards considered in a Committee of the whole House. The proposed Grants were each for 6,G001. yearly. No objection was urged the increase of the Duchess of KslCT'll income, which ip was admitted on all hands was much too small ; but semi" diversity of opinion was manifested with regard to the Grant to the Duke of CUSIDERLAND. Mr. GIPPS moved as an amandasent, _ _ _ that it should be required that the Prince Oroaos should be educated in Great Britain. This amend ment we* stegatived by • majority of 79 against U. Mr. Secretary CANNING and the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHTPUta both assured the House that the grant should be applied to the education of the young Prince in this coun try; and therefore the amendment could only have implied rt !Section on the sincerity of his MAJESTY'S Ministers, or the disposition of the Duke of CUMBERLAND, to comply with the wishes of the nation. The grant was carried by a majority of 10.5 against .53. Mr. BROUGHAM'S Resolution against the promotion of the Puisne Judges was postponed. The House went into Committee on the Judges' Salaries. Mr. SCARLET'? moved an increase of 2,000/. a-year to the salary of the Lord Chief Justice of the King's Bench, but the motion was negatived, without a division. A proposition was afterwards brought forward respecting the increase of the retired salaries of the Judges; but the subject was finally adjourned, in cond. deration of the lateness of the hour an& the thinness of the House. Mr. HUME, however, would not suffer the oppor tunity to pass without an attack on the enormous emolu ments of the LORD CHANCELLOR. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHeuurft showed satisfactorily that the whole of his Lordship's income as Lord Chancellor and as Speaker of the House of Lords, amounted only to the net sum of 13,0001. or 14,0001. This is certainly a widely different result than the friends and followers of Mr. Hume have been in the habit of repeating after each other, as they do so in many other things equally correct and well-founded. CITY, FRIDAY EsEstito. In the middle of the day, there were some considerable sales of Consols, which produced a trifling depression, but we should say upon the whole they exhibit quite u much firmness as could be expected, when all the recent circumstances connected with them are taken into account. The Money Bargains were done at 891 LI and those for time at 09 i 4. The effects of the settling day, as far u paying money goes, may be considered as having passed a way. Brokers, and others, were busily engaged is the early part of the morning in paying and receiving balances, the results of operations with reference to that eventful day. In the Foreign Market, a marked gloom continues, and *very description of Securities are exceedingly depressed. Old Spanish Bonds were at 23f, and the New at 18. Greek Scrip was lower than ever it has hitherto been ; it was at 84 dlicount. Colombian Honda were s; a, and Mexican Scrip si i. Brazilian Scrip wu 1 discount ; and Danish ditto 3! 1 discount. There was nothing doing in laisaires, excepting a few Bargains in Pasco. Peruvian at 10 j f. The prices of Coffee, Rum, and Sugar, were all dem, and th•s articles *ere all in demand. The Duke of Cambraie arrived on the I3th instant at Emden, and on the 17th at Brewers, on his tour to visit the districts that suffered by the inundations. Princei Leopold honoured the Dowager Countess Poulett with his company on Thursday evening. Letters from Paris, received yesterday, state tlsat the Marquis of liastings has landed at Nice on his way to this country. The Mayor of Rheims is to be made a Peer of Frdnee, on account of the Coronation's taking place within the limits of his jurisdiction. The Dutch Papers received yesterday state, under date of Corfu, April 26, that the army besieging Navaritto bad been defeated, and compelled to retreat under the cannon of Motion. The defeat of liedsehid Pacha is confirmed. Letters dated the sth April have been received from Sierra Leone. They announce the satisfactory intelligence that the troops were very healthy, and that every thing was going on well. bust! STAMP Orrte r.—The rumour of an intention, on the part of th• Lords of the Treasury, to abolish this esta blishment, is without foundation.

This was in the reign of Qum s Asps 6 4:rle a d% signified to the Colonists that their petition should be attested to. Notwithstanding this, however, the charges of Govirnenat were not supplied from the fund, which was diverted to ether assents, in which it had been continued down to the present time. The decline of cultivation of trade, and all the energies of the Colony, might be dated from that period, In eons-quence of the unfair operation of this tax. lie did not medtion these circumstances ' relative to the origin of the claim, because he meant to ground his Resolutions upon them, which he did not, but by the brief historical sketch he had given them they might know the exact position in which they stood. All the appeals they had hitherto made to Government had been unsuccessful ; but on account of alterations which had lately taken _place, he thought they were called upon for a renewal of their efforts. In a communication ht had had with the Secretary of State for Fo. reign Affairs, it was intimated to him by that Right lion. Gen tleman that he had his Majesty's authority to state, that no further grants of pensions, such as had hitherto taken place, should again be made on the lii per cent. fund; but that it was In. tended to apply it to the support of the Episcopal Church &a -1 blishment, then in contemplation for the West Indies. Thb took place in the course of last year. Now he (Mr. Carrington) took 1 this to be nothing more or less than an admission of the fact of the former misapplication of the money. This subject had been con sidered by others, besides in tenoned , itnd consequently perhaps partial, individuals. All the historians that had ever written on the West India Islands, in speaking of this tax, had reprobated not only the principle of its imposition but also its application. An other point for their consideration was, that as times altered, so did circumstances, and so also ought laws depending upon those circumstances. When this tax was established in the island there were few others besides those of the landed interest, and of course it could only operate upon them ; but now other classes and interest* had sprung up, equal in wealth to the other, and yet who did not contribute their proportion to the revenues of the colony. 'I his, however, was only a portion of the injustice consequent to the tax. To return to the declaration of the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, he thought it so extraordinary that he thought proper to send in a declaration to the Ministess of his Majesty's Government against the permanent', application of the money to the supply of the Episcopal Church. Not that he objected to an establishment of the kind, which would, of course, prove equally beneficial to whites and negroes, but he thought it unjust that a fund raised from one or two comparatively poor should be applied to det- .2 the Church Establisheeent of the whole of the Wet ladies.

Thews new cireustmeances, he thought, warranted them in making another effort. Against this it may be Wt, that all their applications had hitherto bent made without smarm and indeed he felt himself boui.il to say, that the Colonial Secretary had told him that it was tmpossible to cotkply with their wishes. It might be said to be indiscreet to make a new application after such a de claration as that, but lie must beg leave to say that he entertained too high an opinion of the mind and talents of the Right Hon. Gentleman to suppose that a new application would excite any ill feeling, lie was not discouraged by the unsuccesa of their past efforts, which were defeated from mere want of combination among themselves, and which he hoped would not be the case again. It would be impossible, without injuring the cause for ever, to rest at the present time. T',.. present proceedings were merely preparatory to an application to Parliament, which he hoped to be seconded not only by this meeting and those interested residing in London, but also by aid from Liverpool, Bristol, and other places, that they might encourage the colonies to hope for the best. This speech was listened to with the most profound attention and evident satisfaction. _ ___ The Resolutions were then read, expensive of the sentiments of the Meeting, and resolved to present an Address to Ministers, beseeching them to cast their Attention towards it. Mr. Retool', Agent for Antigua, Nevis, and other islands, rose to second the Resolution. He was glad to see that they seemed to be aware that union among themselves was absolutely necessary. This was the time to press their claims—for when once this fund became appropriated to the Episcopal Establishment, it would be impossible to make any sherations. They themselves, as had been justly observed, must come forward, and aid the necessarily feeble esertions of their agents. The historical circumstances relating to the islands he represented, were not very different from those relative to Barbadnes. The G overnment which imposed It on one imposed it on the other ; •and although the island of An. tigue had not, like Barbadoes, had the conditions inserted in their Act, yet there was tie doubt that the grant in the other islands was under the same terms and conditions, viz—that it was to be apppplied to the internal purposes of each. There was, no doubt, cosraidsrabk distress felt all over the West Indies, but no where to nab a as Is Antigua and Nevis. The island of Antigua bad been to begs loan of 10,0001. from Government, with out which it could not possibly have supported its negro popula tion. Distress in $ like degree prevailed in Nevis. After a few more observations the Honourable Gentleman sat down. Mr. Penance observed, that although the duty was only 4i per cent. on the gross product, yet the tax amounted to 10 per cent. on the net product. lie was sure that not above 8,0001. came into the Exchequer, and yet it was a most grievous burden to the Cola fists, from the manner of its collection. The Resolutions were then put and carried, after which Mr. Carrington read a Memorial to be addressed to Ministers, founded on the Resolutions. This, after a few verbal observations, was also agreed to, and ordered to be left for signature at the tavern. The Meeting then broke up at half-put four. _ - The Lord Bishop of Bath and Wells has promoted the Rev. Geo. Vanbrugh, LL.B. Rector of Aughton, to a Pre- bend of the Cathedral of Wells. The Gentlemen of Galway are doing much for the relief of the poor in that country. They are distributing, flaxseed in large quantities to those unable to purchase it. Mr. Kean commences an engagement at the Dublin theatre on the itllth of June, and will be followed by Miss Foote. At the annual Whitsun meeting of the Bedford Level Corporation on Wednesday sen nig It t, Thomas Orton, Esq. was elected a Bailiff, in the room of the lat e L or d Esrdley. There being three vacancies in the number of Conserva tors, by the death of Owaley Rowley, Esq., the resigna tion of Sir Henry Banbury, and the elevation of Thomas Orton, Esq. to the office of Bailiff, a poll took place, when the Hon. Mr. Twiasleton, Thomas Spooner, Esq., and John Hibbert, Esq. were duly elected. By the accounts laid before the House of Lordson the 14th instant, it appears that the Revenue Establishments at the West India and London Docks, amount to 79,9161. 16s. 11d. per anntun. If, therefore, the establish ments at the St. Katharine's Dock and the South London Dock should be on the same scale, Obey will add to the patronage of Governwient at least 50,0001. per annum. According to an official statement, there were born last year, in the remote province of Werinland, 4,936 children, of which 453 were illegitimate. The deaths were 3,021 ; among which were 7 suicides. The marriages were 1,44% and there were 890 divorces. In the town of Christine lisimm, there were twice as many divorces as marriages ! Such a result surely indicates a change in the general mo rality of the people, which is in direct contradiction with the simplicity and Innocence for which the inhabitants of the Swedish provinces have been celebrated for ages. . • • —• • •• • -•- goairry FOR •:fiI.I.PII.IIBDING Till NECESSITY OP CLIMBING 'fors. -7,--0.--- yeserd a y . an isidreal Of !in perms public Xesifpg of k i. 4 din gatillif Ili %Wet Ibe Cky ee die peeper 4 wake bee quaddisfalen the A f er beill ge lli hr e =lie = l. /.4 . = . 4= or= weee eek .. deb et i ttrii4t etwaried die linrivilpieselt the end . „ Agra Owl shank be ibit Wand to de Ahe seeld Me ef Ike M b ar, mstazi , titil i za various usesimaing VOlStieseess • eine eneemded se well es Am aff 111 r. tat, which it was eon hpariinues wee _• se sump ebeeit ektet).gee Inse.sal 4. sr beedredood that doe reaminkg , Ike • email. by the r pmeme the bell and brink sr. fair se *sere* eagle tame left be base Mgt dies by a bey. , D remomended a seepared to PeeNsimard. die mewed. ibe liven shield be pdated end Wet Famecie Btroarel said be was male . awry te Imes diet the use of the reashiesfee sweipkgehimeepa bill mbar dibbles* lban inereesed.

Now he threw it est kr sbese who had a mere isompetent know. ledge, whether it would est be beneficial to limit the right of taking soot out 4 malt mirk This right would of course be given to those who made use of lhe sweetanieal means of cleansing chin]. air, and thus a dookilealkantage would be produced—the odious mid auel evil would be abelithed, and the public would have their ehheartoys swept for nothing. (This suggestion was received with bad - Ipplrese-) He called upon these around him to wsist is du, ition to this dieraceful practice, which was sufficient to Yi.ettpersons to commit infanticide without remorse, to prevent the vendbility of seeing their children sink into an occupation of certain misery and .crime, which led to a bitter, often to an igno minima death. (Cheers.) He was COllllbleta that the efforts of tire SoOew would be powerfully supported by his friend Mr. Bennet in nment,,• sied he concluded by again recommending to the Meeting a permemeec• ill this ease of humanity, and sat down amidst loud chests, after havingmoved a petition to the legislature. Lord AI o a crr and Lea OW !DYE also spoke in favour of the Society. Doctor BCIIIECZ said he had the honour to belong to an In stitution which united the collective talent of the mechanics of the metropolis, and he pledged himself to bring their attention to the practicability of forming machines that in every ease would be efficacious, or as to the construction of chimneys in such a manner as to make it practicable to clean them thoroughly without the aid of climbing boys. The Resolutions were agreed to unanimously, and the Meeting separated. THE ARMY. THE BREVET.

Dam alsisaton, the defendant in thin indictment, was tried on a chavissaf perjury, in the evidence which he bad given in a trial Casa v. Davis, for an assault, at the Common Pins, Guildhall, bat Diassalmr. On the occasion of the assault, it appeared that Oshos, Os prosecutor in the present action, had used most abusive %Swarth •= Davis, which Davis, a young athletic Jew, set by the assault. At the trial Solomon had stated in Ida Mimes that Cohen had spit at Davis; and denied that at the tient ar the quarrel he had said, " Give it him, it will all go in one expense." The assignments of perjury were made on these IMO statements. Several Jews were called ; but to disprove the first or these state ments, there was only the oath of Mr. Cohan himself against that of the defendant, and in respect to the other, the witnesses varied as much from each other as Solomon did from them all. Mr. Costnott SERGEANT, for the defendant, addressed the Jury, but thou ght it unnecessary to give any evidence. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE summed up very briefly, and the Jury immediately returned a verdict for the defendant. INSOLVENT DEBTOR'S COURT, FRIDAY, MAT 27. IN THI MATTER OT JOSE CAYETANO DE BEEN•LES. Mr. Coots made an application to the Court, upon the affidavit of the above named Insolvent, for leave to file his petition and schedule therein, the time allowed by Act of Parliament for filing the same having expired. The petitioner is a prisoner in White Cross-st r eet pri s o n , and charged in custody for the sum of 20,0001., the aggregate amount of his debts being 38,0001. To meet these demands, tb " nsolvent's available estate appears to be 30,000/. beyond . claim of 190,0001. due to him by the Spanish Government, f or a d vances made by him during the administration of the Cones. At the time the applicant was committed to prison, he had 3001. in his possession, a considerable portion whereof he had since expended in the payment of rent, taxes, servants' wages, &c. The affidavit further set forth, that when he was first committed, the applicant had not the slightest intention of applying to that Court for relief, as he had property to a large amount, which was available to his creditors. It further appeared, that the petitioner had offered to convey the whole of his estate and effects to his creditors; but the attempt at compromise had to his astonishment, been rejected. Upon these grounds it was that he was reluctantly compelled to seek his liberation from prison through the medium of this Court. The Commiasioners, after conferring for a short time, granted the applicant's prayer, on condition that he pay 3001. into court upon filing the docpmenti, which condition Ali. Holt, the insolvent's solicitor, intimated would be in instantly complied with. POLICE. -.....- MANSION-HOUSE. CITT 81111NDLERS.—Since the last account given, under the hoed of hfuosion-house, of the practices of the notorious City of Ladae 1/110/ of swindlers, the Lord Mayor has received a number of mmusseitetions, stating circumstances of deception on the part of the accused, similar to those already detailed. We are happy to say that the most determined intention exists amongst the tradesmen in the city to give the utmost assistance in their power to those who have been thus robbed and abused. The Rev. Mr. Mummery, who is charged with felony, being pronounced in a state of convalescence, was removed, on Thursday, to a vessel which is to convey him to North Shields, for trial. Yesterday lumping the three Regiments of Middlesex Militia were called out, for the purpose of training and exercising. The Royal Westminster Regiment, com manded by Colonel Clitberow, assembled at Brentford ; the Royal taster!) Regiment, under the command of Col. Wood, at Hampstead ; and the Royal Western Regiment, commanded by Colonel Bayley, met at Uxbridge. MAD ]dons.—Philip Farrell, of Mount Pleasant, expired in convulsions on Monday, after forty hours' suffering. About four months since, as he was giving some physic to a dog, which. he conceived to have the distemper, the annimal snapped at .bis fore-finger and thumb, but the abrasion was so slight that no star could be traced. The annimal died in two days, without exhibit.- Mg any symptoms of hydrophobia, and the circumstance had sa. tirely escaped the poor fellow's recollection. It was evident, how ever, to the medical gentleman called in (Mr. Whitemore, of Cold. bath-square), that the symptoms were unequivocal, and he Mune. diately made the case knows to the faculty. Drs.
