To as BBlls9ll 6f THE snriesm.im CI R. • lilsrth 31. With the opinion delivered last Thestlay eight; in the B o we of Commous, by Mi. Bne nes. that "the question 86 ;sea J.:debate. of the Rights and Powers chimed by the „!owe. w a s ef mire importance thee twenty Walcifetieit 4. gspetlitiens," 1 most fully coincide: l even go teethes , oil say . deo saser wit there agitated within the walls of gist House, a questiou of snore serious cousequence to the liberties air l tranquiiiity of the cowttry. It is no lelis t a guess t i oo . Meg whether we are to have real and essential'(lOelty 4 ore hetber, under at mockery of freedom, and a einisitetion J mere forms. we are to have a most tincoatrouled despotism, te4 to submit V. the. most absolute Theretbre, Clussh the Walclieren Expedition be SO deeply dyed in the test blood of the nation, aid a jest retribution •so loudly In. yo kes on the authors of It that condign punishment, which the tidy two zings and strithings of the lawyerly little quibbling are contorted in all the slippery sinuosity of the ye s to elude, and I fear will succeed in sneaking from'; yet skis Espeditiun, with all its failures and disgrace, is of much k' importance, than what so vitally involves the very heart's puha:inn, and perhaps the eternal fate of the country. It ts: - .s from liberty all the prosperity of England sprung; from Ste. ty her soperierity ie valour, in wisdom, in virtue, and in aud whatever was great or good in her, arose.— If 1:;4t source of all that is glorifies and noble be withdrawn, • co ... s equences e ill soon follow. and leave but the trace behied to oven the sigh of rejection, or draw the tear of au. v.:A. But the power which the House of Commons sue, to Inc veins fame:sin; sod if it it ill be anise ed, leave all, 'tie slimier'. dry. I say, the vote that decides in favour of • rower, sounds the last knell of liberty. Aimless power, e t whatever priso n , or body of persons, it resides; is mortal to Watts) ; and not may to liberty, but to common justice.- 5a- it is a motatrous combination in the same hands, of the eseettive, legislative, and judnial powers ;—there it is an isomers! esien of accuser and judge, of plaintiff and jury, in tie same person : n::d what is yet worse, it executes lint, it t essiutses, and laStly it legislates and decides, that what it les etecuied and judged is right. Though the Commons erre e;ested seven times in one year, instead of once in seven e uee such s coalition of incongruous functions in them Would he still despotism; and, " disguise itself as it may," would he fundamentally and utterly destructive to every principle of greediest anal iudependmise, and would be still absolute power. It is ootaiug to tell use, that some former Houses of Commons e..isner it, and even exercised it. So did they c:aiia other privileges, which, thisuels more appropriately coming within is true monies of privileges, are uuw abandoned. They elsetiel privileges for their servants, and their horses. and tSeira.oes: tie exercise or the ri s ist of these privileges is now giveaup. Then why should not those other privileges, or what are rrroreously called privileges, when snare coot rary to reason awl equity, mote 'Dui ust, and more oppressive, be also given up? Sorely very great reflection is iieceesry, to enable us to perceive hew truth more grievous the one is than the other. Ow, however unjust, is but a passlee protection Orproperty ; Cc a.her, i- aw tictive, invasion not only of propeky; but of proon. thy the one, the Commons keep their oWit,'or what is is their own possession ; by the other, -they attack and in yak our persure, mid deprive us of what is our most real surf natniAl property, the source of wealth and industry, sod eiCalllrmi of our personal freedom and exertion. If pity abandon the less injustice, why not also the greater ' beery 1 Our Monarchs had pun ers and p.erogatives which sky were obliged to abandon. Queen Luz AB tan claimed sat tile' cased the power of imposing silence On her Com mas, ns well as the Coinaious now claim thut of silencing ill Ise other inhabitants of the land. The power was equslly just in the one and in the other... But if the Monarch was eompalled to give it up, why leave it to ee abject (fur, "in to of pride," the Cournoni ought is be still no more Shan subjeCts)? Uo our reeresenta tires claim the power of oppression and Injustice by prescrip tion Why do we boast our Constitution? We say it is hue au reason. If so, though it was not perfect at first, acid it not be a system of proeressive anselioratiou? But tennis the anselioratiou in baring our representatives, those don we Choose. to protect our rights and to redress our map, in having those very guardians of our interests, that sentinels of our weal, defend a grievance, merely bee use It is ao ancient grivaaee ? Even though this privilege (rs It s called) of the /louse of Commons were as perfectly hcoofmnity to Magna Chula, and to our Chaitered Co* Onion, as it is in direct centrisdletion to thens,./p, it these den we thoose to redrew our wrongs should 9intea4 for a tatemation of what is so oppressive and usijuish The very Wiseiple of this privilege, or rather prerogative{ is txreanical ; ficrefore in its principle should it be renounced..the times di for a renuaciation of it. The *cry arpnitini fur this dam thews that they do. When In addition to its Many other ernes of complaint against our representativel, tee set men 01.14 openly forward and coutending for a pewee in such ussusition to equity and reuses, ands) galling and degrading to the country, on the bare argument. that it bass been !gaudy assuined, are we pot moat dearly shown how far WS are to be trailed, and how far we should leave io their hail* absolute disposal of what is still, I hope, dearer to *than our lives, our PERSONAL PERERON, mid of course, **political liberty ? Whoa I because we express our doubts *the wisdom, or condemn the &lib of what our represen: tares soy in their public capacity, we are to he shut tip in ktorceratioa, deprived of tbato without which life is worse tax of nu value, is rendered intolerable to every feeling of Ilholiens or ns ibility, a dark and tedious gluons, a heavy adivisoine bunhen ! we are tube debarred of that freedom, without winch an the beauties. of nature are pouted abroad ban profusion. The very priocipk of this most eldest std tjrounical pretension shoulcluherefore be perisitielyabro- Pledi and if Sir Fa ANCIS he doomed to sutler the oppres- Ibsof despotism, I hope Mr. WIIIITNRRAD, ur Mr. WAR -11.1.9 ur Lord FoLeasTON E, or Mr. BRAND, or that truly "light and liberal lawyer, that phesomenoo in Isis profession, ALINUEL ROSMAN. will snake a motion for the entire Mbs. aaead. to such a claim. If Mr. tioraantast bad idayed ti.l after the decision of the important question tidit 61 4 occupied the attention of the House, I would say, he maa:ier in bringing this power forward against 4 _,Prloo of such powers and taleild as Sir Fat. scts. It WA not he kept as a bait of destruction to be buried only tthe heal of weakness and inability to offer any resistance. FeANcss's breach of privilege, if it was a breach, was IRS greater than that of poor Jo Iv us. Besides, he is a Mem ,.

A 4 here I tuaiataio that though Sir F 4 acte.s *lll should be allowed to be a libel on the House, and - ‘NS he is.a !amber of that House, still the House has no nibs of imprivonio g him for his letter.

Ser.Vie I Where an ydu ?—Stand up, thou pillar of justice, thou ,advocate of bony ! Stand op, and do thy duty, our very ungrateful to thy nature is the task I Where these are other; and fair and Constitutional means o obtaining redress, whoiwill say that the injured party. or the party conceiving itself injured, bas a right to the office of judging in its own cause ? Sir FRANCIS'S case is out one of those instances, where absolute necessity justifies in the in jured party the exercise of inflicting punishment. His letter' did ant interlope the proceedings sir the Home. or in any way prevent their discussions. Though that pitiful, little, prating P—L, took occasion from if to distract the Rouse, his mean and paltry shifting was no fault of Sir FRANCIS. it was the In wyerly canning of Guilt, to try to belle Justice. If Sir FR A !gm be guilty of a libel, let him be brought to She tribunal appointed by the Laws and the Constitution to by cases of libel. What the House should do, on the eight of Idebating this question, is, not to decide whether this letter be a libel or not, but whether it be, or be Do t, in its legal powers to imprison at all, except in cases of absolute necessity. It is on this latter question it should decide, and according to the decision will I hope.or despair of liberty. Rat I warn the House of the awful consequences of an unjust decision s the cup is already full ; and this may be the drop, that, in the words ref Lord Bo GINCHIROKE s " IS to make the waters of bitterness overflow." The Commons are sunk deep enough already in the public estimation--they have supported a mean, pitiful, and base, a wicked, hypocritical, and trett cher.vus Mhtstry, ill Its son poolligen and umstiocialcd schemes—they have supported it in its diabolical system of dividing and governing, divide el iaspere—of fomenting dis content and animosities assn ngstthe subjects, and keeping Ca- t holic and Protestant in discord and jealous feeling to each other. They have supported this Ministry in that villainou s and perfidious enterprise of cowardice and treachery, which is, more than any other thing, the came of the present vast subjeention of Europe, the famous, or rather infamous, Co. Inlet' Expedition. They havesupported it in the annual expea diture of upwards of SEVENTY MILLIONS of our money. They have supported in its protection of delinquency, pecu !aline, and corruption in every department of the State.— They have supported it in its contemptuous spurning of peti tion, and in its resistance to any thingin the shape of Reform, or correction of abuses. They have supported, almost in every step, the most profligate, the most imbecile, and most mean Ministry,, with which any country was ever cursed.— And what (Indignation, lend me thy language !) in this last Expedites.), for which lunatics should be put, in a strait waistcoat, or the drivelling impotency of age be put on the list of doting superannuatioa—iso this Expedition, where folly, ' extravagance, presumption, negligence, rashness, ignorance, inhumanity, and every thing that could mean utterincapacity, were, every one of them, so prominently conspicuous, and where nothing alt are to palliate this foul combination of criminality, bet itirigee, deceit, and treachery to each other: In this Expedition, which the Country mourns in tears of V blond, and which it will long mourn, not only as an useless profusion of its blood and treasure, but as a stigma, which it would give as much more blood and treasure to blot out from its, records for ever—even in this Expedition, have Dot our Cotimons supported this miserable and detestable Ministry— ' this union of extreme folly, and extreme wickedness ? They I may be sure that this support is not forgotten by the nation, and that the nation, therefore, justly beholds them with the eyes of more than jealoney 'end mistrust. Then, if they add I an Gijon detision, on tbisoccaein, to the other causes of bit terness against them ; 'if they asium. an absolute and nisi ' trary power (Par an sign! *ebbs on this occasion would be declaring &hat ehey nommeadie).

A t length, to the great astonishment of the audienee, a painfully protrdcted Sound. of— " Pi-i.i.o.ous Or.r-gies " issued from the lips of CATALA NI, whose voice was evidently subdued by an inveterate hoarseness. Feeling the imprac ticability of proceeding, she piteously turned to the performers near her, as if imploring theirassistance *or apology—but "go on, never mind,. go on,°' induced her to proceed -in the attempt. The ut terance of 66 Pi.i.i.o-ous Prea-a-a.yers," how ever, showed that the difficulty was insuperable. Again she turned, and was again encouieged.— " De-e.e.e-c-ent • Ah I" exclaimed the dis. tressed performer, .pointing to her throat, gi c'est impossible "—and Mr.. BRAMAN immediately joining, finished the passage. A serious tumult, such as would not have dis graced the O. P. war, instantly ensued. " That won't do, that won't do," exclaimed as hundred voices. All was confusion and uproar. Mr. BILLAMY then addressing the audience, assured them, * 6 thet Ole inalsility of *Marne ; 46 CAT ALA NI to go through her performance could 46 not be snore deeply lamented by the public than 46 by h e rs e lf— s h e was anxious to make every ef. 44 fort to proceed—and, if the audience would 66 but houour her with a patient hearing, she " would persitere in her endeavours to go throash 44 the songs, and give satisfaction _to that eudi., 44 ence for which she had so high a respect." This apology was favourably received, mid CA. TALANI was led on by Mr. BRAUAM ' • but the conclusion of the Act with Hall shish was ac companied with a species of 0. P. perforninnex that overpowered the whole orchestra. Before the second Act commenced, Mr. 1110.

The' remainder of Mr. Bai.Lasty's address was inau. dible. Several Gentlemen from the Boxes and Pit sue. cessively addressed the Audience—the general burthen of their song was --that they came,to the Theatre expressly for the purpose of hearing catalani...whose indisposition ought to have been announced in printed bills. When the Performers enterej the orchestra pre. vious to the 2a Act, Mr. Aiincer was loudly called fur. Mr. C. Anus:- then addressing the audience, repeated the assurance of . Mr. SIMLA. KY, that it wss not until three. o'clock that the indisposition pf _Madam. Saratarst. was known *to be at 41 .*0iiw vitcacn tag' repetition excessive. Mr. C. Asaray contioued, address the audience, but was inaudibleto all except the few who were nearest to the 'stage. Being in a scat in the orchestra, tee distinctly heard him con. dude by offering 66 to return the money of ruch of the company as chose to retire." - • Of this offer some Gentlemen In the pit imme diately availicl themselves. An interval of silence now ensued, but a Gen. damn mitering the Pit, again. called for Mr. Ammer, who, appearing,. was informed •by the Gentleman that he had applied to have his money returned, bat in vain. Mr. C. ASHLEY at. tempted to address the audience, but could, not be heard. He, however, signified by gesticulation, that the offer he had made should he fulfilled, and bowing, retired, as the House understood, for the purpose of giving the necessary orders. Many who hid out beard the original offer, then pre; pared to quit the Hottse. The Secoud Act now commenced, but the music and the voices were ejiitts inaudible, until Miss GRIGLIETTI sung " He teas cut off." That was heard, and the House was tolerably silent. At length Madame CATALANI rest,- and went through Quango" —in a voice *full Wave lower than the pitch, to the uttct astonishment of the Cognoscenti. Th. exertion of CATALAN! was astonishing, 'and the indignation of the House, wholelt for her situ*. Lion, was now evidtsntly directly solely against the Managers. _ At the commencement or the 3d Act, when Madame CATALANI was led into the orchestra... " Let her go home; let her go keebt;" w as vo ciferated. The performance, however, proceeded, and Madame CATALAN! Me to sing " 0 Do/co concento." During the interval bet Ween Acie w , she had desired the performers to transpose thssi Air from B fist to G, in 'the hope of being able to go through it with that alteration.

Moulage° CATALAN' Was nearly exhausted by this effort... but respectfully courtseying to the audience, she left the orchestra with smiles and good humour,* which did not desert her throughout the whole of this trying appearance before a justly Irriteeed British audience. Mr. BRAHMA - exerted himself throughout the evening with more than his accustomed energy, and all the other performers laboured to supply, by their strenuous efforts to please, the vacuum . , produced in thei cutertainment of the evening, by . the indilpositioo of CATALANI. :- I • , . . , The final retirement of the Performers yea 40 compenied with ad uointerrupted volley of greens, whistles, and r ' direful" exclesilitteitt ears in wrath—.-precisely such M were mad tti assail our the memorable war of 0.

That Lady . is Attacked . by a cold, which, at three o'clock, attains such a pitch, that to sing is evidently inipossfille. Of this, the Managers aro apprized. What is• their conduct ?

To secure, therefore, a bunsper, this poor Lady is indecently forced to encounter the nation of an audience, to whose language she was a stratler, for an offence of which she was utterly innocent, and of which, hajwily, the audience were, at length, perfectly - con winced. • - GANISTICRL,--if file union of those dregs of society, who feed on the vitals of folly and fashionable intemperance, ever, attained by combination and conspiracy a dangerous in. lluence, 'the present may be pointed out as the • moment, when their deep intrigue; have plunged more individuals and families in ruin, than at any previous time.
