The Old Times tell es that Mr. Doss said, that it was contrary to all rule to give up Me sasses of the be We know that we daily read the masses of Bail ; sod we have sever beard of such s rule as this before. The Old Times tells as apes its own authority, that the Bail are both persoss esereisigg stseehseical Trades. Bat the Old Times does not save the Bail, e►en yet. We bad letters seat to as, yesterday, explaining the rireametances under which these tradesmen became bail. Oat these Letters are asesysoue t and we would advise the parties themselves to come forth and espial& those circumstances is poise. They, however, will do es they please about this matter. In the meanwhile, let us do, as far as we eats, pe tite to the Government, and particularly to Mr. Pmw la another part of our paper we have i serted an arti cle from the New Time:, which we cannot bat look upon as demi•offcial, and on which we shall have fur ther to remark another time. But, is the meanwhile, we are very glad to observe (what we always supposed to be the case) that the knowledge of the matter did net reach Mr. Peeo testi/ after the chief criminal had bees admitted to bail. We hope sad trust that this is t rue; fur, on this tarns the whole of the question as far as the Governmest is concerned. We sever be lieved, for one moment, that Mr. Past. would sot do, Is ibis use, that which it was his duty to do. Bat we ■ast, at the same time assert for ourselves, that we dimly believe, that all impartial persons will agree with as, that oar exertion in this case, have bees of , the grts3tft importance to the public. [PROM " Tint New TIMISS.I We briefly adverted, a few days ago, to the di.. "graceful conduct of a Dignitary of the Irish Church. "Use sentiment of abhorrence actuates every mind on *the subject; and Governmest have shown themselves "es this, as on all other occasions, faithful represents. " lives of the national feeling. Anxious to mark their " seam of the severe isjury sustained by the canoe of " religion and morals, they nevertheless could only act as " the yaw directs; but every measure pyeserllied by the " law has boss and will be pursued with undeviating " strictness. As soon as the matter came to the know " ledge of tie Home Department, (which was not after " the chief cruelest hadthoes admitted to bail), the par " bleier* were officially submitted to the consideration "of the Crown Lawyers: and in conformity with their professional advice, the most speedy and effeetnel " means were adopted, both in Ireland and England, for " preneediog at once in the temporal and ecclesiastical Ceerts. The See of Clasher, therefore, will not long "bear the stain with which it is at present defiled. if " esascieace does not prompt a voluntary resignation of "the pastoral charge, recourse will bebid to the solemn, " bet happily very simnel process of ipiscopei depri " audios, which must be pronounced by the Metropoli " tea, usually tski og to his assistance six or seven other " Skimps. No instance of this infliction has occurred, "we believe, since the reign of William I.; bat it is " certain that the Church retains the power of removing " a Prelate from his See for scandalous excesses, " whence any great public infamy doth arise ;' sod " tba. the present is a case which calls aloud for the ex " ereiee oftbetpower so one can doubt. " Ladepeadestly of this, the Attoroey-Ueseral will of " ficislly prosecute the parties at the Middlesex Set. " doss, either to trial, or, if they evade that, to outlaw " ry, with all its consequent penalties and disabilities.— " More the law does not permit : for, black as the moral turpitsile of the conduct depased to, it still arnovnts ooJy to a bailable offence; and we all knew that by " the Coostoon Law and by the Hakes Corpus Act, it is "deemed a violatio n ed tin liberty of the sultiosulm ass= " Magistrate, to refitmer delay to bail a person boilable. " la the present instance, the wealthier individual found "bail Immediately: and if the other should tender bail " at any time before the Sessions, it most be accepted. " The MiOstrate demanded mesh more than ordinary, " though we -Mar mach less than effectsal hail; bat it *Hoist he .remenibered that the Hill of Rights strictly " forbids the taking of excessive bail.

The petition is primed, sad our readers shall have it. In a small wey this is one of the neat est things we have heard of.

SLAVS TA/M.—Being quite snre, that Xce, Spain and Portugal will, in spite of ee, cart the Slave Trade, as lung as our DM shall last, we 81401 have taken not the smallest notice of an address ao resolution, brought forward by Mr. IVianaaroacx, bad be not happened to compliment the Government of the United States of America, by saying, that it bad prohibited slavery altogether in the extensive territory of the filisounri ; and be exhorted the flosses to follow the glorious example. Mr. WILIIIRFORCS is not a hypocrite and deceiver; but he is d, - hypocrites. The Territory of Missouri extensive, and the area of the West is still more extensive, and has really population of human beings t h an Territory, which is, alumni wholly, Then, again, Vile Territory I. by no calmed fur a profitable system of Slavei WILIIIR/ORCE look, not only at Mary the Carolinas, and Oeorgia, but at the Mississipi. Kentucky, 'renegue, and Alabama; and there he will find slavery in its most edicts form and deepest dv aid where, there are more people in one square mile than is the whole of that extensive terri tory of which he is talking. In short, the government of the Ualte.l Stamm maintains Slavery is the utmost rigour over tiro-thirde of its Territory with regard to population and value of prodnets ; it maintains it where it is profitable to the planters to main tain it; and it maintains it not where it wosil be unprofitable. Let us hear no more of the example of the United States' 0 meat, then. And, before Mr. Wigan aaaaa cis compliments that Goverarneat another time, let him be informed. that vessels are built at Baltimore for the express purpose of the Slave Trade, that they are openly fitted out and sailed front that port on that trade; and that. so respeele6k a►e the merchants that carry on that trade, that one of the members of the Steam of the United States whore name is De Wow, has bees openly stated to be an owner of slave vessels In the public papers of the United States ! Let Mr. Wta enaroacx then be cautious bow he bolds up the go vernment of the Milted States u being, in this re spect, an example for as to follow. We hate hypocrisy fall as ranch as we hate the Devil himself; the con trary of hypocrisy has always been the characteristic' of Englishmen; and we d. not like to have the eon duet of the Congress held forth as an example for us to follow with regard to negro slavery, or any slavery. We never ten mention this matter without doing jus tice to the Midland and Eastern States, whose in. habitants bold ibis slavery is abomination as mach as re do. FRIDAY, JULY 26. There was nothing of importance, except the Super thin Sill in the ileum of Commons, sad with regard to which, we alk‘ll only remark is this plate, that the Bill was read a third dm, and passed the next day. • MONDIA. JULY 30. rue Loans.—The Irish Cantabiles' Bill was read a third time, mid pulsed ; and. after a debate of Immo length, sod ea which we shall not remark, hav ing sufficiently noticed the speedos as it passed through the Commons, the Alien Bill was read a third time and passed. In Tug Commons the Irish Stamp Duty Bill went through a Committee, and the Report on the Potities of the Caicetta Bankers was received and ordered to lie on the table. The Bigkote Chapel Bill, which seems to be a pretty affair enough, is, as far as we can gather, laid asleep for another six months, and we believe, that, if it ever awake, it will awake in a great fright.

" Mr. Croce, Master of the Sardinian brig La Peet, arrived in this Port yesterday from Constantinople, which he left on the 15th ult., reports that the Grecian fleet, on the night of the 18th, buret and destroyed the greater part of the Turkish fleet of Cisme, means of fire ships.—We learn that this statement has been also given by bf. Beldini, Blaster of the Austrian brig II Cotamercio de Triest, who arrived yesterday from Odessa. Should the intelligence be correct, it will no doubt be soon confirmed by other _channels." Paris papers of Saturday and Sunday last have been received. The former are destitute of foreign intelligence, and contains little else than a report of the proceedings of the Chamber of Deputies on the preceding day. $ I chapter, of the Budget Law for 1823 were passed without such discussion. On the resolution being proposed fur a sum to he set apart for the promotion of literature and the fine arts, the remarks 'of M. Rodet occasioned a storm. Whilst proposing to reduce the charge fur public monuments, he reproved the erection of statues to Louis XIII., Lonis XIV., and Louis XV. He contended that the reign of !Anis XIII. had only been the despotism o; ea ambitious and cruel Prelate, the Cardinal de Riche lieu. To Louis XIV. be objected that insatiable am bition which aimed at the 'abjection of Europe. and Involved his !Leer years in calamity and disgrace.— 'He also quoted the proud expression of that Despot, " The State, it is I," and his humane and politic Re vocation of the Edict of Nantes. Louis XV. he justly Characterized by a single expression, the truth of which is undeniable; " the memory of his reign is still too young, to allow us to forget that it was a reign filled with all kinds of disorders, and stained with every pollution." Bat these sentiments, however histori cally correct, not being palatable to the majority, the tempest of their indignation raged without bounds, until the Orator was called to order by the President, ived of his right to address the Chamber.- -reche afterwards opposed the erection of Generals PicbeErn and Moreau, on the that the former sullied his services by betraying try at one time, and losing his life in au at commit " a cowardly !nation" on the Napoleon.

It was observed that although the impression of that speech - was neg a tive., all the mili tary officers, even those belonging to the Right rose in its favour, thus 'honing to the Chamber that they. shared the opiaions of the Orator with respect to the .close of Moreao's caner. The various some propuse , t were then voted, without any division.—Some of the Ultra papers of Sunday pretend ;that news bad arrived from Madrid of the capital being in the power of the Royalists ; but the statement is unworthy of notice.

His Majesty leaves raven to-day or to morrow for the Royal Cottage in Windsor Greet Park, where, it is believed he intends to remain till within a day or two of the rising of Parliament. The Princess Augusta visited his Majesty yesterday. Her Royal Higheras took leave of the King previous to his leaving town. We are happy to learn that the Duke of Sussex is sefficiestly recovered from his late severe accident, to be able to take an airing in his carriage. His Ito al Highness, however, still requires the constant attend ance of his surgeon. We are isfonsed, that his Majesty will for certain visit the Duke of Athol. Preparations are, it is said, making for a grand stag bunt to be given daring his stay at Blair. The whole tailorage of the north east of Perthshire are now busy in equipping the tenantry of the Duke of Athol in proper costliest. There is a - report that his Majesty will also visit Gordon Gentle and Dunrobbin, but very little credit* attached to it. (Inverness Corrier.) The Lord Provost of Edinburgh bas applied to Sir Richard Birnie. as Chief Magistrate of Police for Eng land, for the assistaneeof some officers, who know the persons of English thieves, to guard his MOM, le northern subjects against their depredations daring his Majesty's intended visit. Sir Richard ha., in consequence, appointed Townshend, Sayer, Vickery. sad Bishop, to be in attendance in Edinburgh, during his Majesty's stay in that city.

Robins having been called to the chair, be, in a feeling address, informed the assembly that Mr. Emery has left • widow and seven ebildree. The youngest 18 months old, with a father 80 years of age, and a mother 75, whom for i somber of years be supported, in addition to his nemerant family, and who by his death are left nearly destitue. The assist. mica be bad also frequently afforded distant relatitee and friends, and his g I liberality on all oce4- sloes to the dist d of his own profession, as well as his kindness to others, contributed to the melan choly result, that, dying in the prime of life, he bad not been able to leave any provisions whatever to his parents, wife, or little ones. An immediate eubscrip floe, amounting to above 1001., was entered into; and it having been resolved that a public theatrical benefit 'should be resorted to in aid of the friendly purposes of the meeting, Mr. Arnold generously offered the use of his theatre, gratis ; and in case a larger theatre could be obtained, Mr. Arnold offered the services of his whole corps drama:one, sod to shut op his theatre, that it might form no counter attraction on the eight of the benefit ; Red this kindness was in addition to his private subscription. The proprietors of Covent Garden. however, liberally granted the use of their theatre: a committee, to arrange and carry into effect the above resolution, appointed Monday nest, August the sth, for the night of the benefit. Mr. Ellistom sent a liberal subscription, with a letter expressing . his determination to do all in his power to assist the cause of the meeting.

Every one pre sent teemed most anxious to do his utmost in further. lug the success of the undertaking. Died on Sunday hat, aged 18 months, Maria, the daughter, of Mr. Jewen, of Hampstead. An inquest was held on Friday. at Trowbridge, on an infant three months old, who had been connuitted to the care of a child who let it fall, from which it is supposed to have died instantly. The artful girl, instead of in forming its parents, laid it on the bed, and ran to her own home. On the return of the mother of the infant (mu her work, the child being in bed, she took no no. tice of it, but, previous to going to her work, she took the child up, and found it dead.
