To our minds, a stronger case could not have been made out against Alinisters, owl even Mr. CANNING'► usual rhetorical flourishes f►ilyd him "at Ins utmost need." Indeed at one tunment the Right Honourable Gentleman seemed In completely confounded by the nature of his case, lion lie was universally 811 object of pity, and the only meatus he had of getting through his difliculitts was to vociferate with a lcudt•ess proportionate to his wa►t of argument, and to draw one of his ready-made speeches, that was vidently prepared for soother occasion. We now have time wily to state that a div►sion took place, whit!, ti.rre appeared for the motion, si— a.,;aiiist it, M.

The only lever that appears to be possessed by our Nlinisters, is money, and they Belief fail, on every occasion, to prove the readiness with which they recur to it ; they suffer the most valuable occasions to puss them without advantage ; and when the commands of Pathaoreart, or the voice of the, people, subserviently chide their neelrgettcr, or reprove their deficiency in a. al , they know of no expedient to compensate for their but by drawing largely upon the pock, is of their mo )i ) or.. Thin remark finds illus. %labors ie. every point CJUllt'Lltd with the itezr.cia. tiOns between this country and Foreign Powers fur the suppression of the Slave Trade, The wrongs of Africa were wholly forgotten by our Ministers in their exultation it the happy close of the war; and in the mires+ of their magimnimity and generosity. they reserved nothing flow the spoils of the war to dignify the return of peace. The soppression of the Stave Trade was qtrite after.thought ; and when our Milliliters subsequently went to solicit the Sovereigns of Europe to repair the mischiefs of their precipitancy, their entreaties were ridiculed even by those who owed their Crowns to the ever lions of this country. The Env anoms affected to toosider en acquiescence in their request as lemon- 'Went with the rights of French subj. cut, for whom, it Must be remembered, the trade had in fact ceased to exist during the continuance of the war, asul fur whom, therefore, the BovasoNs had, 011 their re• storation to the Throne, abs►lutely created it—ob taining, however, fron► this country, in the cession of West India Islands, the meatis of rendering their new-born right extensively ope►ative. BONAPARTE fearlessly destroyed it, contrasting in the strongest point of view the derisive energy of his character with the miserable shuffling of his snore successful rival, end almost retiree:nog, by one great act of humanity, the thousund crones of his remorseless ambition. This act could not be undone, although to ■ question from our Ambassador nn Hurt subject after the battle of Watetlnn, the Prince TA LLET -11 (ND, its the mime of the French C;overtsment, declared it to be void, and it woes not until the year 1317 that a ►ingle Ordinance etas issued by the King of FRANCE for preventiog the importation of slaves into his colonial posse►sions. The result of the negociations with Spain and Portugal is stow before the country; it his hero applauded in the House of Commons, and Lord CAsTLEREAGH has been loudly thanked for Isis exertions its the cause of illi , musity. Events have pretty civility proved, that, if left to himself, L•rd Casei.ear.suti would have dome grey little fur the C4116C of humanity ; and with respect to this Treaty, we cammt but re. guru! it as a disgrace to this country. The honour and independence of our II •g, hitherto our proudest boast, have been us►uecrssarily sa cidieed. Spanish ships have obtained a right to search British vessels sailing snider the British flag, and this concession Isis beets applauded its a British House of CUltlllll , llb ! Its comisa risots this. the amount of the purchase tno ney sinks into contempt ; and this 'veto,. fur *filch the Minister who advised Ins Sovereign to accede to it, d. serves to be impeached, it coolly passed by for u pitiful calculation of the ►um of money dis tributed per capita. and a conjecture in the possi bility of raising it by beggieg f loot to door. Amidst the itsintenzoity of our exproditure during late years, the sum of 300,000/. is regarded quite es it ; lout desirable its the Abolition of the Slave Trade utieloulneolly is, nett 400,0001. in the present state of our finaloces, become a matter of no small importance. Lord CASTLEREAGH ►fated, that, its comseopeeteo e of the denunciation of ilie Slave Trade at the Congress of Vienna, every Power its Europe appeared desirous of go thing out of it as soon as possible. ll' this btotrio ent was correct, Spans seems to have made a good leargositt, fur she is well paid for performing an act of grace, anal for doing what the force of opinion must have shortly compelled her too. She obtains this sum, too, at n moment rslrrn her political necessities rendered such a supply most seasot►ttble, and a hen the course of events a ill probably soon deprive her of those geographical advantages fur carrying on the trade of which she was forme-sly posses% d ; while, on the other halal, Great Britsiiio, al a gratuitously, presents her still, the means of con tinuing I►er exertions against the South American Colonies, and of protracting her destine-live war fare some time longer tawniest the unhappy victims of her oppression.

INFORMATION. Mr. Scaut.s•rr moved f , rf it rule to spew ean•e why a criminal information should not be filed against a Gentleman named Gwynn, ..who was Co roller for that part of the county of Sussex in which the town of Lewes is situated. The Learned Gentleman made this application on affidavits which disclosed the following facts :—Oli the of January last, a young Gentleman, the ii7pliew of Mr. Serjeatit Runtrington, was riding in the neighbourhood of Lewes, at a place called Preston. Ile was thrown from his horse, and dragged a con siderable way, in consequence of his loot being entangled in the stirrup. The injury he received caused his almost immediate death. This hap pened on the 51miday—and, on the Thursday sue cretliiiv, he was buried. On the Monday follow. Mg, Mr. Gwynn insisted, by his authority, as Coroner, that the body should be taken up, arid 815 inquest held 011 It. It wus accordingly taken out of the grave. mid nu inquest sat on it, sifter which it was reinierred. It was fur this ahu•e of his authority that the present application was made against Mr. Gwymi. It would be uppa reot to the Court, that there could be but two motives to iiifluence Mr. Gwynn's conduct in tins irroreeding—either peisonal picque, or for the sake of the fee.. to which, as Cormier. Ise would be entitled. These was a case mentioned in the book•, where a gentletnati of the name of Har rison, who acted us Coroner for Kendal, had proceeded iu u somewhat similar manner. lir that COW. the Court granted the information.— In the present instance, it was known, in every part of the neighbourhood, how this unfortunate yourig 11140 Cline to his death. There were tun tar. cui...t.fict, of suspicion or concealment, that could warrant the coroluct of r. Gwynn.
