Mr. Goo Lau itli•said , the object of . the address of the inhabitants or Zinte Was subversive of the Careernment : as that siddresswas promoted by one of its own judicial officers, the GOverooment there die dinette him. which &add - hardly be deemed improper. He was also suspended from their A.- eetubly, and proceedings' were ordered to be coos meneed'agsinst him for breach of the oath which he had taken. The other memorial was iuforinal, wacould not be received on that account. • Me: Ming read one article from the lonian Con. linftution Motive to presenting petitions, and con tended that all the requisites were complied with in Itte present instant«. Mr. MAaatart contended that, for the honour . Vi t i e House and the country, the papers ought to 'fie Rid brine them. ' ‘'The gallery was then cleared for a divisieti. and we were excluded fbr some time; on our return, we found that no division had oaken place, hut Mr. flown was on his legs, opposing some amendment which had been submitted by Mr. Goulburn. Sr'i JOHN NaIVIIMaT raid, if the papers could not be had in time for the next discussion, it would b e i n time for the next Session, and from what had come to light already, he was convinced that these wa s a great deal which ought to be laid before them. If Great deritain were protector of the lonian ' , lands, the House ought to see that they were really protected. Mr. Goo LIMON said, if the Right Hon. Baronet would make any motion for inquiry, he should be perfectly ready to meet it with the fullest in- formation in his power; but as the Hon. Member (Mr. Hume) had a specific purpose to answer, he had endeavoured to shape his amendment to meet his wishes. Mr. Hunt said, he could not illustrate the state of the question before the House better than by stating, that if he had silted for a report of the state of a gaol. the Hon. Gentleman would present him, with the report of the gaoler. Mr. GOULIBURN explained. The question was then put and carried fur en address to his Majesty for extracts of such parts of Sir Frederick Adams' dispatches to the Lord Hi Commissioner as related to the insurrection • et Santa Maur* in October, 1819. GRAMPOUND DISFRANCHISEMENT 1111.1.. Lord MILTON, iii rising to move the Order of the Day for taking into consideration the Lord!' Amendments to the Grampound Disfranchisement Bill, observed, that although he thought the man- Per in which the Bill was sent up to the other House was better than in its present state, yet be should be extremely sorry if oily *lterations should be made that would risk the loss of the measure; be, therefore, hoped the House would agree to the Lords' amendments. Mr. W. WYNN regretted what had been done in the other House, and wished that when they had made so great a change in the Bill they had adopted another mode, and have contented themselves with agreeing to so much of the Bill as disfranchised Grampound, and sent a separate Bill, providing for the way iu which the defect in the representation occasioned by that disfranchisement should be re paired. He confessed that he felt great disstatis faction with the Bill as it now *toed, though at the same time he did not think the House ought to hazard the Bill by amending the Lords' amend went.. The greatest advantage, he thought, would result from dividing the county of York tutu two counties, es he had no hesitation in saying that the number of electors was too great. He should wish to move an amendment to that effect. The diffi culty that had been started respecting the return might be got over by the Sheriff adjourning the meeting from Yolk to another part of the county, and the election would be thus made regularly at the county Courts. Mr. S. WORTLEY thought the House were placed in a very awkward situation by theamend meets hick the House of Lords had made. The House of Com mons had decided that the franchise should he given to the borough of Lerds,and therefore two Burgesses should be returned for that place; but instead of that, they substitute two Knights of the Shire. He appealed to the House, whether in a question which rebated to the composition of it, and as it was acknowledged that Peers bad a very great inkeepce at elections, whether this measure would ; Not add to that power. He considered that the greatest in conveniences would result to the private Orlin. =eatery business of the county by increasieg the Dumber of the Members to four. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY thought his Hon. Friend (Mr.S. Wortley) had placed the ques tion, as it reworded the privileges of the House, on a footnig that few wouM agree with him. On the mode of electing its own Menthers, the House un doubtedly was the sole judge; but when they Coale to a large question like the present, involving tire eonstitution of Parliament, he considered it would be an arrogation of one branch of the Le gislature over tile oilier not warranted by the Con stitution. He thought the ether House, by passing the WI in its present state. had given a pledge honourable to themselves.? their disposition to fon. cur with the House of Commons in remedying* griev once, and fer his own part he was Not disposed to quar rel with the change of two burgesses to two knights of the shire. He conaidered that it would be most euwise in the House now to cut down the measure to the mere disfranchising the borough of Gram. pound, as the other Hou.e contil nut be consider ed as pledged to pass the wrdsure without some oubstitution was proposed. He did not feel that the present measure was final as to the division of the county of York, if that should hereafter be thought necessary ; but he thought, ueless it were well considered, the (louse would get into great difficulties; it would not do to say the Sheriff might adjourn the meeting, the lime of the returu to the writ must also be extended. He was anxious that the measure should be completed this Session, as it would allay those unjust suspicions' which were ratertsitiord as to the sincerity of the Hour* in de wing to remedy the evils complained of i be shauld • thetirote vote_ rot sigoiiiit 0.410/40. Lord J. Russitu, thought. the (motion for the Wyse to consider was, whether the reiledi now propmed was so ill adapted to cure, the evil , sk to inchsee the House to ri a k . th e l oss of it altogether. The other House had agreed in the main panel* of disfranchising Grampound, and transferring the right• to another plater. The only difference .be• toeea them was, the manner of carryipg the princi ple-into effect. The R o a st o f C ommons were for currying the elective franchise to • populous town, and the other House desired to give it to a large and populous county. Knowing the disapPrnhation of the Honourable Member for Yorkshire to the measure. he was surprised to find the objections he had urged against it of so little weight. The incolivenience to the private business of the c.ourgy could hardly be increased by having four Members instead of, two. though he. ac knowledged there was a considerable intricacy in the scierive of numbers when discussed in that House. The proper number of Barons of the • Eschequee fee Scotland was five ; the, beit limp ; her of Lords of the Admiralty wee six ; and, tar rePterentaiires of the county of. York, no number was so proper as two. He concluded by express- Lig his intention to support the Bill as it stood, rather than risk its loss altogether . . Mr. SiteTtta suggested that the best mode would be to agree to the flit' as amended. by which the principle would be established. and they might then bring in a Bill to divide the county in such a way as would obviate the inconveniences likely to arise at elections. Mr. Witmineoace would have preferred assisn int; one Member so the North, and one to the West Biding. but should fear to put that as an amend. men ', lest it should endanger the measure ; but a B i g might afterwards be brought in to woks. t hat .•• • arrangement. Lord MILTON said, he felt no objection to the arrangement, because it made no inroad on she con stitution; but he questioned the propriety of divid ing the county, and he put it to the feelings of lion. Gentlemen if it would not be very harsh to the frerholtlera. He did not imagine that it would tend to increase contests for the county election. He reminded the House that the Bill did not extend the elective privilege in the least degree, it rather diminished it, because it disqualified a considera ble number of votes. . . Mr. R. MARTIN promised, th a t if any Hon. Gentleman would bring forward it Bill to disqualify Taviatock, and give the right of election to a county. he would willingly support it. Mr. S. WORTLSY replied. The motion was agreed to without a division. After a few word. from Mr. C. W. Wirtrx, the amendments were put seriatim, and adopted with out a divi-ion. Lord MILTON gave notice for a motion for leave to bring in a Bill for the more conveniently taking the poll in elections for the county of York. He proposed putting this notice into effect to-morrow Ohio day), at which time he hoped to be allowed to bring in the Bill. The Marquis of LONDONDRRILT moved that the Order of the Day should be reed for receiviog the Report of the Committee of Supply.

He had no hesitation in fraying where the remedy for this evil was to be found. The Attorney-Geees rat had the power of stopping all such proceedings by his no/i pro aqui.' He implored Ministers not to wait for the occurrence of any outrageous 'abuse in this case, but to put a stop to the evil 'dui manly. The Report of the Committee of Supply was then brought up.

General. The Association was a libel on ti te offi. •. cer. For his own part he felt convinced that quire tions of libel affecting the public would itlvnits be best judged of by th e G overnmen t. Mr. E. Waaaa begged to have it noticed by the House that no one Member within the walls of It had risen in defence of the legality of the Association. The Marquis of LORDOVIDRRRY objected to the' inference drawn by the Hon. Member. He pre.. fessed not to have been much benefited by the wisdom which had been poured forth. lf, indeed. the arguments were all right as to constitutionality. legality, and all the rest of it. it was a pity that the light had only so recently broken in. There were subscriptions for the prosecution of persons charged with murder..,eihich he had heard of, and to which great names had subscribed, but no objection was made to them. Whether it was the title of -a Constitutional Society. or that all the feelings of Hon. and Learned Gentlemen oppotite were re. served fur the defence of this one crime of libel. he did not know. although there had been called up so much learning and zeal. Sir J. Stashiciiit reprobated the indecent and presoMptuoui, as well as illegiii and'Uncoiostittis Alone! conduct of this self-constituted Society, uh. dertaking to expound the law to Magistrates who had never suffered the laws to be interpreted to them yet by airy other tribunal. Mr. BROUGHAM had only one objection to the Noble Lord's insinuation, that it was unfounded iu fact. He had never said that it was illegal for people to combine to prosecute those who had vio lated the laws. His objection was to a system of prosecutions merely, which, if suffered to go on. would leaVe the press no liberty. The Marquis of LONDONDIRRY said, that no objection lied been Made to the Society for the Suppression of Vice. As that Society sought the removal of vice and indecency, so the Constitutional Association sought to do away with sedition and disloyally. . ~ Mr. ScARVITT said, that to form any such Asso ciation 'was in fact a direct attack on the weakness and ineffiesey of the Noble Lord's government. The SouciToa-GasilittAL said he would toot an. ewer for the policy of the Association, but he con tended that there was nothing contrary to law and the apiritof the Constitution in it ; he defied any man to get up and say that it was. Who was to judge of the law ? Not. the House. The tribunals qualified to determine had decided otherwise in a case which had recently come before them.—(Lord trier of " No, No.") —Could they suppose that the Society bring mentioned before them, those respectable Judges would have neglected to express their *- mon if it had been against the legality of the Association ? The Court having expressed no opi nion on the subject, it was plain that they saw nothing illegal in the Association. He boldly chal lenged, he defied any one boldly to say. that it was not legal for people to combine to prosecute those who had offended the laws. He had heard a few days ago of a libel so atrocious. so lobo. minable, that it was impossible for any member of a well-ordered monarchy, not to wish to 1 ace it prosecuted. Would they have the At. Mr. Baoucesss rose to call the attention of the House to the formation and purposes of this Association. He might have been content with having formerly drawn their attention to it, but that the alarm which he then felt had been greatly augmented at seeing the avowed ob jects of the Association put forth in a letter which he then held in his hand. It purported to be a copy of s circular which this Society, unknown to the constitution—this self-constituted Association of public prosecutors, had fin warded—to whom did the House think ?—To the Magistrates of th e united kingdom ! The Bridge -street Committee, as if known and recognised by the laws and institu tions, had issued this their circular to expound unto the magistracy the law as it ought to he adminis tered in matters of libel—• digest of libel law issued by the Constitutional Association for the guidance of the Magistrates of England ! This might be reckoned foolish, impertinent, and med dling only, but for what followed. Now he was ready to admit that it was legal in particlar cases of crime for two or more persons to prepare a bill of in. dictment with a view so the punishment of it; tint was legal, and might he expedient, or even laudable; but the character of the transaction was entirely altered when done by a large body, upon • system of prosecutions, haviog a large fund to hack them. Societies previously formed might Stud it necessary incidentally to prosecute, and to that there could be no objection ; but a system of prosecutions only, which weld to carry into effect the office of the Attorney-General by commission, was an evil new and insufferable. He denied the legality of such an Association ; he more strongly dented the legality of the steps which bud been taken by it. The paper in his hand was signed by J. B. Sharpe, Honourary Assistant-Secretary to the Constitutional Association, 6. Bridge -street, Blackfriors. It ran Str,"—(tliis being addressed to the Maystrates of the kingd )—" I am direct ed by the Committee of the Constitutional Association"—(whom the Magistrates are, there fore, bound to know; the Committee is talked of as a Secretary of State, or the King, or any of his °Seers might be)—" to forward you the en closed exposition of the law of libel. The Com mittee have found it necessary to institute various prosecutions for seditious and plasitheniou• libels, s o me of which have been abandoned on the parties expressing their contriti ."

Was there ever such an instance of men combining, confede deeming, and conspiring in the (see of day, against all and sundry the venders of political writings, to carry on prosecutions against them, backed by a system supported by a common fund, amid threatening to ruin all those who were to be lodged offenders without process of law, or the decision of the tribunals, except, forsooth, they expressed their contrition to J.

The following Circular was nublialied at Lay- Inch at the same time with the Declaration inserted in our Nunibet of yesterday :—(Mogriterr.) " CIRCULAR DISPATCH. LAYBACH, HAT 12, 1821. " The Congress of the Allied Sovereigns aud of their Cabinets, it Troppau. re,olved on in cone. quence of the events which had overturned the le gitimate Government of Naples was destined to 'fix the point of view in which it was fit to Place itielf with respect to•thise baneful events, to con cert together on one common course, and to tom him in one spirit of justice, preservation and mode ration, the proper measures to secure Italy from a general overthrow, and the neighbouring States froth the most' imminent dangers. Thanks to the happy conformity of views and dispositions which prevailed between the three august Sovereigns, this first tank was very soon fulfilled. Principles clearly expressed and reciprocally embraced with all the Sincerity of en intimate conviction, con ' ducted to witilogotis resohitions, and the bases es tablished since the first conferences have been iova• riebly followed during the whole coarse of a Con gress, distinguished by the most remarkable results. " Transferred to I..sybach, this Congress assu m .. ed a more decided character, by the presence and concurrence of the King of the Two Weibel, and by the unanimous salient with which the Princes of Italy acceded to the system adopted by the Allied Cabinets. The Monarchs were convinced that the Governments most immediately interested in the destinies of the Peninsula would render justice to the purity of their intentions; and that a Sovereign placed in the most painful situation by acts with which perfidy and violence had learned to associate his name, could accede in full confidence to mea sures which must at once put an end to this slate of moral captivity, and restore to hii faithful sub jects the repose and happiness of which criminal factious had deprived them. " The effect of these measures soon manifested itself. The edifice raised by revolt, as fragile in its construction as vicious in its principles, reposing only on the cunning of some. and the momentary blindness of others, condemned by the immense majority of the nation, odious even to the army formed to defend it, crumbled to piece, on the first contact with the regular force which was destined to overthrow it, and which has demonstrated its nothingness. The legitimate authority is established. The factious are dispersed. The Neapolitan people are delivered from the 'peony of these auda cious impostors, who, in lulling them with the dreams of a false liberty. caucused upon them the most cruel vexations. imposed upon them emir moos sacrifices, for the sole benefit of ibeirsimbi.
