lIIM4 for disfraniglishig the rbonsagh of Crata p nand, and tranferVing the right of electing Mem. Leis for Parliament to some populous town not at present enjoying that right.• The measure WAS btairght forwatd with so much discretion and good Penile, and was recommended by such high authority. that Lord CASTLEREAGU consented immediately kiTecognire the propriety of depriving the borough of Grampotnid of the elective iron. .chise, and of tratisferSinrtheprivikge forfeited by corruption, iu the present instance, to some more populous town. The •llolrle Lord, however, took eapecisl care to guaid irg au. , the ailanis , ion of any general principle, and dearred, what must indeed in every case of •necessity take place, that every par. tittular instance selected for the operation of the pliociple of disfranchisement, and transfer of the right of election, should he considered wpon its own • P , •rulinr merits. This concession on the part of thalovernment was considered so satisfactory, that Lord JoaN RUSSELL immediately withdrew his Re solutions, and gave notice that lie should, after the tiol.days, bring in a Bill for disfrotichisnig the bo rriagh of Grampound, and fur transferring tl‘e right efieleciion to some more populous iils e ; but in pursuance of the evident tir;tie of the Ilouse, the Iniuble Lord consented to bring in his very impor tant and very salutary Btli to-morrow. This occurrence is, under the present circum stances of the country, very consolatory. It 'hews -tat the !louse of Commons are not so indifferent to the desires of the people as their enemies assert; w,ll contribute essentially to pour new life i n to vie constitution, for it contains a principle of ain motion that must be attended by the best rffects, end what is still better, it will bring back the wan dering spirits of the people, and restore to them . !hst confidence in Parliament is hidi alone can en sure respect and power to the one, and tranquillity to the other. It is also gratifying to reflect, flint boon so gracious in itself, and holding out pros ports so brilliant, should have been obtained by the risertions of a member of that illustrious Howse, whose name has long been dear to every English. It belonged to the I louse of Russr.t.t. to .ommence that rational and practical Reform in Ow details of the Constitution winch alone can en sure its stability. In the .Committee la,t night on the Search for Atm+ Bill, the dance empowering the nocturnal was carried by a majority of 10S, the num- L.:rl being—Ayes ti, Noes 107. 'Jr. Ilortnonn has been committed to New r,.te. It was rumoured yesterday evening about I•e I-louse of Commons that Mr. flotstiousx pur r:sed to resist the execution of the SPEAKER'S war ruo, 111111 the runieur excited a very extraordinary ren. , )tuni ; but we find that it arose altogether a misapprehension. On Mr. ELtace's erTivai at the House the Seijeant at Arms p•idres.ed himself to him, and requested to be o•fothied where he might find Mr. liontiovax, 1-r the purpose of executing the SPEAKER'S war rAnt which he had in his possession. Mr. Et.Licx irataeduttely informed him that Mr. Ilonnouss wit then at his (Mr. FAttcx's) house in Spring !dens, and thither the Serjeant instantly dispatched ti!rer messengers to arrest him. The messengers writ' admitted without any difficulty into the room w' ere Mr. HORHOUSE was sitting. One of the 67- -wsgers announced to him, in the most respect ful Terms, the object of his visit. Mr. HOBRO Use neither ctfered any resistance, nor manifested any de-ire to comply with the requisition of the messen ger who produced the SPEAKER'S warrant, but suf te:ed himself by the application of a gentle force to be lifted from his chair, and conveyed to a coach in walnut:, in which he was conveyed to Newgate by one of the messengers, at half-past six o'clock. He was received at the prison by Mr. BROWNE, the keeper, and we understand with satisfaction .t! at accommodation has been provided for him in littowNE's house. 1t Appears from a Proclamation issued at Glas gow, given in untidier part of OUT Paper, that the c!til nnthori►ies apprehended some serious disturb ai.ce in that city. kayl Fight, et hill int4t eleven, his Royal High .. f iess . tin.fitrtkicE REGENT arrived at Carlton House florer : Brigliton.

Queen a close prisoner in Follwrintay Castle for many !WIMP, during which time Mary was tried try the English Comoocil for treasonable practices, and con demned to die. The events which hurry on the fatal came. tros,the arise from the unavailing attempt of Mortimer, one of the adventnters in ber !AIM, to rescue the captive Queen. To accomplish his purpose, he imposes upon his uncle, Sir Amiss Paulet, the Governor of Futheringay Cis:le, obtains an interview with Mary, and learns from leer, that her only hopes of freedom rest on Leirester. Ile delivers a letter from her to that Nobleman, who readily films into his views, and artfully contrives ■ meeting be. twirls Elizabeth and Mary in Fotheringay Park. Here, an attempt upon the life of Elisabeth by a higotted Priest, by the wily Burleigh, attributed to the intrigues of Marv; and that Minister haring discovered the curers poodence between the Scottish queen and Leicester, the latter contrives to elude the vengeance of his Sovereign by the sacrifice of Mortimer. Elizabeth, a pro y to emaciate. ing passions, and urged on by Boirleigh, at length signs the '►arrant fur the execution of Mary, notwithstanding the pressing remonstrances of Shrewsbury, and intru.is it to her secretary, Davison; he imprudently gives it np to Bur. Nigh, who, to prevent the consequences of Elisabeth's re tracting, hu►ries off with it to netheritigay Castle, and sees the sentence put in force —and Elisabeth finding that Mary was innocent of the attempt spinal her life, becomes a prey to the keenest remorse. The proprietors have spired nothing in decora tion, scenery, dresres, &r. ; they were most grand and magnificent ; but with all in the power of those great auxiliaries to effect, the tragedy plowed on but heavily—even the excellent acting of Miss MACAU LEY, who appeared for the first time at this theatre, in the character of Mary .Stuart, cnold hardly give spirit to the dull declamation she had to recite. —The audience were, however, sensible to her merits, and applauded her efforts. On her entre, she was receivert with warm acclamations. Mrs. BUNN was the Queen Elizabeth of the evening, and supported the dignity of the character with grea t ability. Mr. MACBEADY'S Earl of Leicester, sod Mr. CHARLES KEMBLE'S Sir Edward Mortimer, were excellent; hut neither of the character* gave them an opportunity of dispinying their talents to adrantige. Towards the end of the fourth art the audience began to testify their disapprobation of the length of the piece, which continued until !lie conclusion of the tragedy, at eleven o'clock. Cur tailment is certainly tnucit wanted, and when that iv judiciously applied, we have no doubt but the play may become a favourite. The house was crowded, and the tragedy wai announced for ■ second performance by Mr. TERRY. BRIGHTON. DECEMBER 13. The Prince Regent, on Saturday, once more or copied much of his time in looking over the Pa lace improvements. The stay of hi• Royal High ness this time will inclode but a few days—it is said to be his intention to return to Carlton (louse this day or to-morrow. The Duchess of Gloucester was every day in public last week, and I times llCCOMpilliird by the Duchess of Leeds, as a pedestrian on the Steyne and Cliff Parades. Of this amiable Laity it may with truth be said, that she enjoy* respect in public, and happiness in reclusion. The attendance of Nobility to testify thee: at. tachments and pay their respects to the Point., Regent, by leaving their names, was very nitiortouv on Saturday and yesterday. The Duchess of Gloucester intends prolonging her stay here some time longer—the beiietit which her health has received, it is said, will often induce her Royal Higimeas to honour Brighton with her presence in the time to come. The Duke of Gloucester arrived at half•past four on Saturday. General Fuller, nod Captains Joules and Smith, are among the last arrivals at the Royal Hotel.— Lord Rivers continues to be expected there. Sir Hugh Palliser is at the Old Ship. Gem Harcourt and family were in the Old Ship departure hit on Friday. The Royal York Hotel has had several important arrivals since this day sr'neight.
