During the day Consols underwent considerable Ructuxtiomm,, and closed somewhat lower than they opensd. A general de. pre:will:l seems to prevail iim the minket, which is lime more worthy of notice, from the circumstance that, at pitsent, no set want or matey is eXpr ritiiced ni the City. Commerce languishes, t aw does thew appear nosy desire in the commercial world to influe new rigour into its operations. No confidence is felt in the existing state of affairs; time absence of every information respecting time real state of the finances of the country, and the anxious suspense in which men of bossiness are kept during the discussions iii the Parliamentary Committees on the affairs of the Honk, create an unwillingness to enter into commercial speenlations. The rli'ret of this suspense will, we doubt not, be seri 4444 sly felt iu time financial accounts of the current quarter. 'VW CHAN!:EI.I.OR or time EXCHEQUER is lint per haps aware of the serious injury lie inflicts on by postponing the I • 4;wilerstion of kir Ws3ls and Alesesis to so late • period maf the Session. The Relions of the liool Committees wry, too. ever, be expected immediately Orr tt.e present recess, and these will, no donht, he speedily fol lowed by the oiifulding of the Budget. Weed the Sesion has advanced so far, th..t if any time, however shoot, be now suffered to elapse, it will he utterly impowlile fur Parliament, within the ordi tiory.eatent of its *cosi !!! , to investigate the nu- Merlins subjects proposed for its consideration with the attention due to their importance. We yester day published • long List of Notices of Motions rod Orders now shoaling me the Order Book of the House of Commons, which, without any further addition to them, would offind sufficient exercise to the house for at least three months, and yet they did not embrace a single financial question. nor the consideration of the Estimates for the Military and Naval Evtablishments. hi fact, although Perlin- ment hes been sitting for three months, the business of the country has not been hitherto seriously under takeu.. This has been caused by the necessity of instituting previous inquiries in Committees ; but it must have heels well understood by the PRINCE REGENT'S Ministers that such inquiries would be found necessary, and if any inconvenience thence arise to the public service, they are to blame fur not having advised his Royal Highness to convoke his Parliament at an earlier period. Having adverted to inquiries by Committees of either House of Parliament, we cannot avoid no ticing, with feelings of respect and admiration, the teal, perseverance, and talents, uniformily dis played by those Committees in the discharge of this laborious part of their duty. The public, we believe, are for the most part very little aware of hot, touch tiny owe in this respect to their Repre sentatives. To give a general idea of it would be impossible; but let one Committee be selected, that, for instance, now sitting on the afFitirs,of the Bank. The subject is one of painfuf interest, re• pairing the exercise of deep thought, and the up. plication of extensive learning, and close reasoning. Witnesses of various characters and conflicting 'Mons must be examined, volumes of palters must be explored, and from this oppressive miss of oral and written testimony, in which theory must be re cunciled _with pritetice, and opinion weighed against opittion,a connected and intelligible Report must be digesteil; and II plan proposed to satisfy the martyr Who await it isithasixious solicitude, end to obviate the dangers which most persoqs faucy they can fore see front the change which must be prodsiCed by, the indispensable measure of a resumption of cash payments. The study of 'this question bas en gaged the Members of the Committee for several weeks unceasiiiply, without the slightest recom pense for., , tbirir . 'labour, anxiety, or loss of time ; nor, • maim are performed in private. ' have they even the consolation to think that the extent of their exertions is understood by their country. Front this sketch of the labours of one Committee, some faint idea may be entertained of the individual services of the Members of Perlis- ment, and of the immensity of public business which is transacted, unknown to the great majority of the nation. The motion which stands first for discussion after the recess, is that of Mr. Wm. PA RN ELL. respecting the Act 54 G. 111. c. 151, imposing a fine on town lands iii Ireland in which unlicensed stills have been discovered. We are glad that this question is not fixed for a Saturd:►y evening, near the close of the Session, as it was last year ; and it is to be hoped it will meet with that degree of full and impartial examination and debate which it merits, but which it could scarcely be said to have then received.— The law we speak of is so severe in its enactments, that it requires a case of very strong necessity to be made out to justify its continuance. It makes the whole inhabitants of a townland, which is equal in extent to the fourth part of a parish in England, and sometimes more, responsible to the revenue for the offence of one individual, who, it may be, never lived in it a month together—nay the sole puui•hmeut may ultimately fall on a single indi vidual, who neither was, nor, tinder the circum stances, could be aware of the guilty transaction ; for if the inhabitants of the towitland, in which any of the articles used it► illicit distillation bus been proved to be found, fail to applot among them selves. within the space of thirty days, the fine in consequence imposed, the excise officer is empow ered to levy it off any person possessing property within the district. Another extreme hardship iu the statute is, that it does not enable a person against whom an information is lodged to recover costs of the informant, should he succeed in de feating it ; so that a poor man who may have been subjected to the charge of engaging in illicit distillation, through mere malice, is ruined if the revenue officer thinks proi•er to prosecute it : taking defence to establish his iitisocenste will tx liaust his little all, as wt II as being declared guilty. That this law, if carried into execution, mu►t be detrimental to the character of the people fur whom it is intended, cannot be denied by any who call to mind that it is founded on the principle of compelling the whole popelatioo of a country to become spies and informers against each—a prin ciple, it has been truly observed, equally opposite to the spirit of the British Cunstitutiot►, and un suited to the character amid habits of the Irish na tion. Iu addition to the innate severity and int 'Whey of the law, its ttiects are described by a telitlvarim, a clergyinais°, alio had the lest • The Rev. Edward Clichesicr. opportuity of observing them, to have been most appalling end calantitoot. Its execution to represented as rddi g the horrors of innerly sod famine to those of contagious disease, among the peasantry in a certain part of the North of Ireland ; as begetting a spirit of inosiliosiliinsiimi tool autarchy, and a system of Idwlrmi 4:i/deriving) . ; ita cau►iug the loss of property to Ike proprietors of the soil—of property, Kifety, and life, to thug who attempted, in self-ilefetice, lo olwy tit. law. lii aiwver to these various objection., Mr. the debate of hat `Session, contented I t 000 pelt %sits imitating on the adequacy of the measure to its riot ; with talon% (with a awing appearance of reason, it most be coofessed) that it was soccespliil in the repression of illicit distillation. This, however, is by no means sufficient fur the advocates of uphold ing the law. A wise and humane lei.lator will address his laws, as far as possible, to the moon') mod feelings of the governed ; he will not use means disproportimistely Severe to attain a given object ; he will avoid, as much as may be, drul+oolii7g •the people, like brutes devoid of iiitelleco, by the mere force of fear roil violent penalties, into compliance with his will. 'Elias%lt every illegal will may have et this momeut disappeateil in Ireland, circtirostances• might soon occur to tempt the malty peasant to resume a trade so profitable, if it can be carried on in secrecy, and iii that event it is painful to think on the hardships and opprebions which might he exercised under colour of this law. Whether, and how far the meoriure of licensing small stills lately introduced into Scotland, is applicable 'Maud, is a serious question for the consideratiim of the Legislature. But if one hull of the grievances alleged to . have been practised under the Act we are considering have a foundatiori 'in troth, ig; should not be suffered to remain uu the istointo, 4 book.

Some discredit has been attempted to be thrown upon the copy of an agreement entered olio by the Viceroy ILA Bghti, and Captain StilltUlFF, of the Aadromoche frigate, for opening Lima to British vessels and their cargoes, which we pub lished on Tuesday last.
