The curtly!' 11111015,5i011 on the adjourned debate of Mr liroughant's inotinit, respecting the late unfortunate Mr. :smith, the Demerara Missionary. was last night deferred, on the motion of !tumor Lushisigt.m, to Friday nest. The Honourable and Lamed 4 ienthaetan stated the post 's:me:men( so long to be isc:iessary, from the abwoe: of many Memlwrs who hare left town for the holidays. Robert Wilson roses to ie.!: the Caloaial Secretary whether ,the printed minutes of evidence, laid on the table of the House, contained the whole of the offbeat copy of informa tion sent to Governmant ; and secondly, whether the Honourable Secretary was prepared to aihnitblish or deny the a uthenticity of the no tes of evidence, pued by the Missionary Society. Mr. Wilmot Horton replied, that the espy laid on the table was printed verbatim from that transmitted to Government, without the alteration or omission of a single word. As to the authenticity stahw copy published by the Missionary Society, the Honourable Secretary said he could not give any opinion respecting it. Mr. Huston stated, that Mr. Elliott, a Missionary, who was in Court during Mr. Smith's trial, could prove the fact, that the Court would not allow Mr. Smith to pursue the course in his defence, which was followed in the prosecution, and that hearsay evidence, though ad mitted against him wr.s refused to be beard in his defence. If this course was pursued, it was must unjustifiable and il legal, but we doubt it altogether. We cannot believe that president Wray would have permitted it for an instant. The fact is, prejudice now runs high on both aides ; men's feelings are warmly interested, and we only regret, that this agitating question is not suffered to sink to test ; re vived discussion on it can be productive of no beneficial tenths whatevet. We arc happy to see that a ray of remiss has at length bloke in upon the Orange party in Ireland, and that their annual prueevNions, which have led to so many outrages and noon-day murders, arc at length to be discontinued. We have now before us a circular from Mr. James Verner, the Secretary of the Grand Lodge in Dublin, date.: the 27th of last month, and addressed to the different lodges throughout Ireland, inducing a resolution, unanimously adopted at a Meeting of the Grand Lodge on the 21st, sanctioned by Lord O'Neill, the postifi.x morimes of the Associatiem, and recommending, " that in consequence of the evils which have arisen from the erroneous views which many persoes have taken of the motives and conduct of the Orangemen of Ireland, and of the intention and tendency of the processions, which have übually taken place en the 14th of July, in memory of the glorious Revolution, the Grand Orange Lodge feel anxious to evince publicly their desire to promote tranquillity, and to take from the ill-dis posed story excuse for their misconduct, and therefore re solve that no public procession of the Orange Association shall be made on the 12th of July next, and their Grand Secre tary is instructed to co►nu:unicate this resolution to the se veral Grand Masten." This proceeding is creditable to the Assembly from which it originated. These annual processions were always attended with alarming out rages, and constantly with the loss of lives. The Orangemen ought to know, that William the Third, whose memory they profess to celebrate, was a warm friend to toleration— that his life was passed in opposition to the bigoted and haughty Louis XIV., by whom the Kdict of Nantes, affording the free exercise of their religion to the Protestants of France, was faithlessly revoked, and the " iLagonailee, - and persecutions of every sort, mercilessly let loose on that unoffeneling body. William came over on the invitation principally of the great Whig families, to establish the rights of conscience. sal freedom, political and religious, in this country, which the bigoted and wretched James sought to destroy—blessings which were finally secured by the Revolution of 16S8. The Treaty of Limerick, it is true, was violated, and new proscriptive Statutes passed against the Catholics, under William and Mary ; but both were notoriously opposed to the Monarch's feelings. The Convention would have been kept sacred, and the Irish people left in peace, if the Parliament of England, IVhigs and Tories, did not join to prevent both, and William had to give a reluctant sanction to the viola tion, anti the monstrous code of new penalties framed by the contending zeal of the two parties. Burnett, the most authentic historian of that day, so states it expressly. The Orange Associations, therefore, in making the tolerant William the patron of proscription, coi iiiii it the grossest in justice on his memory. The discontinuance of these pro cessions, which never passed without new contests and murders, will be one great step towards the tranquillity of Ireland—a happy cu u suunnatiun, for which the illus trious Nobleman at the head of thstttiovernnu•nt has la liou:ed so lung and ro assiduously.

The protective soldiery of France have no sympathy with those of FF.R DI NAND; there is perhaps as much of international enmity between them as can well exist consistently with sheathed bayonets. In truth, the dynasty of Spain is in a very ticklish crisis. Rut, after all, what are the armies of Spain, or of Russia, or of Austria, or of half the world, but a hand of slaves to control slaves? Every drop of blood which the sword has shed, from the days of Adam downward, has gone to cement the misery of mankind ; war in its best shape is barbarism.

The death of Loan IlvaoN is still deeply felt; the ido lators of his fame arc here as numerous as in England. A bookseller in the l'alais Royal, by whom all his works were published, hung his shop with crape. Such a mark of respect—somewhat enthusiastic perhaps—to the memory of this extraordinary man, when viewed in Paris, in con nexion with the kindred feelings it excites, cannot fail to carry some important indications with it to reflective poli ticians. In many points of view such an exhibition is interesting. Monsieur Casimir Delavigne, so well known by his literary production,. particularly by his Prole de I icillar ds, has just finished a Monody on his death. Its publication is looked for with impatience. One of the moat distinguished sculptors in Paris is likewise engaged, at this moment, in modeling a bust of him in the finest marble. Such tributes paid to departed Genius are alike honourable to the poet of England and to the patriots of France. 1 was just shout to fold up this, when I received intel lip:nee—Me authenticity If which leas roach fur---that his Majesty is this morning much worse.

There is enough of hatred, and he art-burning, and distrust, to form an ample fund of mutual dissension ; but there is, nevertheless, not much, 1 think, to be apprehended.

EVERY-D.IY PEOPLE. ( From the New Monthlg Magazige.l My Aunt Edwards is continually railing at Every-day People. She became acquainted with the Cooksons, last Antonin, at Ramsgate : the young folks used to walk to gether upon the Pier, from morning to night, and, when they arrived at the extremity of that noble buttress, old Cookson used to lodge his telescope upon the dwarf granite wall, and let all the young Edwards:s, one after another, peep through it at the French coast. My Aunt Edwards and Mrs. Cookson rode over to Broadstairs three mornings in the sante carriage; so that it seemed in a fair way of being a thick and thiw business. But when the two families returned to London, affairs assumed a colder com ple%ion. My Aunt Edwards lives in Fitzroy-square, and the Cooksons only in (lower-street. This is very touch against them ; indeed, it has induced my Aunt to denomi nate them " every-day people." They did well enough at Itantsgate: one must not be too particular, especially since the invention of steam-beats ; but my Aunt Edwards must say, that, without meaning to detract from the merits of the Mall—what ' s his name (Watt is his name) wbo in vented steam, he has much tag-rag and bobtail to answer for at Itanisp,ate. The fare to Margate is such a trifle ; the breakfasts on board are really so very respectable; and the eighteen-peony carriage overland to ltamsgate is so very moderate, that it is no wonder so many every-day people come smoking and dabbling down every Saturday. Know ing the Cookson, to be good sort of people, as well asevery day ones, I begged my Aunt Edwards to grant them a new trial in London ; but no, she was inexorable; the residence in Gower-street operated as a bar; Bedford-square she would not have minded; even Russell-place might have been passed over with a suitable apology ; but Grower-street could only be tenanted by every-day people. I took no- thing by my motion. Whilst on a visit to my Aunt in Albion-place. I became acquainted with Charles Cookson, the eldest son of the sub sequently proscribed family. We rode together on horse back to . Kingsgate, upon which occasion I obtained much information from him. I bear it, I hope, in grateful memory. Ile pointed out to me certain hills across the email, and told me that was the French coast. Horseback, he added, was a healthful exercise, much more so, indeed, than riding in a close carriage. When we arrived at Broadstairs, he said that Broadstairs was not nearly so large as Ramsgate, adding that the two Piers would not bear a moment's comparison. He, moreover, connected it as curious, that there should bean Albion Hotel at the one place, and an Albion Place at the other. The colour of the sea, too, according to him, was sometimes green and sometimes blue. It seemed to him, the fishing-boats ran some risk in a storm : he considered the company at Mat gate as too mixed: he only bathed everyother day ; and he I thought that Bonaparte must have felt dull at St. Helena. Upon our arrival at Kingsgate, he pointed up to the in scription over the archway, " Nunc regis jussu Regis Porta %Ivor," and said, " That's Latin. When I said that Lord Holland must have found it a salubrious spot, he answered with great quickness, " Yes, but not so con venient as Kensington for attending the House of Lords." When Mr. Charles Cookson complained of the dearness of everything at Ramsgate, I answered " True, but their season is a short one : they must make bay while the sun shines." To this he replied, " Certainly.' Notbing im portant occurred beyond what I have mentioned. I hope to inherit my Aunt Edward's Navy Fives, but not her hostility to every-day people. They arc a race fur whom I have an esteem. Sterne loved a yackasas, and Talk yrand's wife took N'olney for Robinson Crusoe. " All nature's difference makes all Nature's peace ;" and, as I look upon myself as somethite , out of the common way, 1 hope that I may stand excused for rather liking every ;lay *plc. When one is asked to meet piquant company there is much hope and fear excited with regard to whom one is placed next to at table. One fidgets, and frisks, and manoeuvres, after a pleasant partner; and, after all, 'tis ten to one that one gets planted with one's Aunt an one aide, and a pale girl just out on the other. No such excite d feelings arose in my bosom in Gower-street. I walked in , to the dining-room as philosophically as if t were entering St. Stephen's, Walbrook, on a wet Sunday afternoon. The el' r was in admirable keeping with the party. 'fhete' was gravy soup at the bottom of the table, and at top a in senile salmon with his tail in his mouth, like the snake grataral in the right hand of the grandfather of gods and men. On the removal of these reloninaries, the salmon was succeeded by a tongue supported by boiled fowls, and the soup by an edgebone of beef. Let no man turn up his nose at an edgebone of beef: it is by no means a had thing: eertain, however, it is, that when I beheld my plate laden with two slices of that article, interspersed with greens and carrots, not to mention a dab of mustard on the margin, the dell assumed as every-day an aspect as heart could wish. 1 fancied myself, for the moment, seated in the cook's shop at the corner of St. Martin's-court, where a round of beef is carved by a round of woman. On my left sat the fat middle-aged woman in pick crape, when' -...~-- I hid originally four d seated on the ir fa. I could no catch her name, but from circumstances I was lid to believe that she had bicn to the French play in Tottenham-street ; inasmuch as she observed that Laporfl reminded hei of . . • . liarh•y. Amelia tookyon, who sat on my right hand, aski.ii me if I had sten thc. Diorama and told tot. that she i.cferred it, upon the whole, tollr. Irvii,g. Atneka and 1 got rather intimate during Ilintier. There oceurOd two pauses from lack of conversation, This induced lur to tell me in confidence, that her family were gewerall: reckoned dull : her brother Charles, in'tleetl, Imo leas so • -- • • -- than the r.•st : he once sent a kitty to the Brili4 signed " Truth," which was not inserted ; but still, upco the whole, he was :lull. However, added she, we tut reckoned very amiable. I now drank a glass of sherry the young man in bloc from Hasingstoke, who informed n,., that sherry was become a very Pis'hionable wine. Mr. I Oliphant said it was the h: st wine for gouty inen, which confirmed me in my original suspicidn'of his being afilieltd with that complaint, Mr. C.)okson.i.skegl me if bad 7. , ,roaster or the Exhili;tion ; and Mrs. Cookson br e ed T. (lid not find the fire troul,lesome. fir John Dawson, rt. tautly from Paris, said there was not a house in London Et to he seen. I modestly suggested Devonshire Douse ; but Lady Dawson ii , mared me, tlist it would Dot he endured in the nue St. Dimon:. Arnelix Cook - mm talked to me a her Scrap book. It was rmicliA, she told ire, with se veral trinitscript pieces of rare valtle. Yesterday s friend in Devcrishire sent her some thing beginning with " 0 Sc- , etude, romantic Maid then there was" O'er the vine covered bills and gay valleys of France," WhieN had. never be etc published. I told her that I could let her have some thing of my own. Amelia expressed her gratitude, add promised in return to Write 'me out "Grays Elegy writers in a Country Church-yard," and something else very pretty, beginning" Pity the sorrows of a poor old Man. I have since kept my word by sending her " Hope, thou nurse.al young Desire," and "As near Pats Bello lying." The poor girl received them with tears of gra.itatte. I loelieyo I I bare stated every thing of moment that took place their% dinner. On the summons to ka I rejoined the ladies with a benignant '.ow, which was meant to express a hope that they had not been. very wretched during my .unsvoid-. able absence. Mn. Oliphant supposed that we had been talking politics. There were two manuscript books 1 i • , upon the drawing-mom table, viz. Amelia s &nip and Litcy's Collection of Autographs. The latter had lately enriched her collection by Colonel Scrape's tailor's bill ; a notice from a vestry ClZvk to attend a pariah meeting; atl a frank given by Alderman Wood. Tea being (leap:itched, it was intimated to the thit I could sing " Mailamina" its Loa Gi"ranai ' and Mrs. Cookson assured me that her 'daughter Lucy should amain. ;any me. I assured Mrs. Cookson that I had no vbice; and Mrs. Cookson assured me that I was an excellent singer. These two lies bring uttered, Lucy pulled off her gloves tat preuare for action ; and Lady Dawson, recently from Paris, took that opportunity to inform me that Signor Ros sini charged eighty guineas a night for attending concerti. I was startrA at the magnitude of the sum, and hinted that if he were relieved of part of his bur Then by the co operation of marrow-bones and cleavers, and a comb and a piece of paper, he might probably be induced to come for sixty. But no: I was assured by Lady Dawson, recently from Paris, that he would not fiddle to his own father for farthing less. I now started " litatlamina" to Miss Lucy Cookson a, accompaniment. As the lady played in all sorts of time, I deterininid at last to sing to my own, so that by the period of my arrival at the slow movement, can t mencing Woods ' " my divine Saint Cecilia had st rived at "Vol sapete." We all agreed it was capital; and. that the great beauty of Alczart'a music was the seem uiment. Lucy Cookson now rose from her mad e - stool reach " Nel cor non phi mi !lento," with variations by Max zinghi. Upon these occasions every-day mothers make it a rude to play puss in a corner. Mrs. Oliphant seised her opportunity, pounced upon the circular red-morocco, and placed her daughter on the momentarily vacant seat. There was not a moment to be lost. Away she started with "Rousseau's Dream," with variations by Cramer • and Saxon Sa. air with var;ations by ditto. " Now, my clear," said the mother, " sing, ' We're a' noddin ; and now sing ' Charley is my darling ;' and when you've go! through ' Home, sweet home,' and Oh, softly sleep, I'm sure the company will be delighted to hear' Betty, Betty Dell,'" (meaning, I presume, " Batt!, bath, o bel.") The young lady wit too dutiful to disobey; and we too civil to object. Lucy Cookson, Who bad bbrti "posh 'td from her stool," bade Me observe, that all the allegro movements were played in slow time: that the hands of the fair usurper wcrc glut d to the keys during every rest : and the Stactato was actually played Legato. I expressed a suitable horror at this; grid assisted little Crosby (who ought to have been in his bed three hours before) in ra.Ww the lid of the piano, to give effect to " My pretty page which was thundered forth like Beethoven a " Batik Si;t fonia." Crosby urged me to stand closer, to eye the move ments of the little red men under t h e wires; but I doubted the stability of the dim rolhogany prop that supported the cover of the instrument, and did not wish to - have what little nose I possess knocked out of my head. Upon a review of all that took place at Mr.Coolrastr's dinner in Gower-street, it seems to me that "more com mon matters" were never discussed in the Court of Exche quer: right glad am I that it is so, and I hope soon to dine there again. Nothing is so fatiguing as keeping one's facul ties on the constant stretch. When I dine with Sir Peter Pallet, I am previously obliged to diVe into Reynolds's Discourses, to qualify myself to talk about " the art," the fact being that I don't kook xi Raphael from a red- Jack Georgic puts my Latin to the proof; and at the Beef steak Club I sin momentarily obliged to belabour my in dignation, in order to create a repartee that shall set die table in a roar, and blow my adversary to atoms. No vio lence like this takes place at the tables of every-day people. There my memory puts on its night-gown, and my judg ment and imagination their red-morocco slippers. Let my Aunt Edwardi take it as she likes, I will not sit down with out proposing the following toast—" lit 21th and prosperity to Every-day People!" MR. AND MRS. GRAIiAM'S ACCOLTAT OP THEIR AERIAL•FOIAGE. Shdrtly after their asec —...— nsion, Mi. Graham found it ne cessary to rid himself of all the ballast from the car, sad. indeed, of every thing else of a weighty description ' • this he attributes to the clouds being heavily charged with rain. They kept the city in their sight for lien half an hour, anti they then lost all earthly views by the balloon entering a dense cloud, in which they experienced much cold. They passed through several others, the effects of which emu. pletely deprived them of hearing. The thermometer, at this period, which was about ten minutes put sit o'clock, stood at freezing point, and in about a quarter of an hour after it was as low as 20. The thirst that they now experienced was insupportable, which they bad no way of decreasing, having no liquid in the car but brandy. At length they reached a clear and serene atmosphere, and the sun shone forth in its brightest rays, the cloud., below having their nsual appearance — th atet snow mow!. tains heaped together. The tendency of the balloon to ascend was very great, and it was found necessary to open the valve a little., in order to discharge a portion of the gas, and to prevent the vehicle ascending. Having been in the air one hoar and tweery minutes, they haven to descend, and threw out the grappling-irons, which were fastened to a rope, 270 feet in length. Mrs. Graham looked over the side of the car, and observed, that the irons appeared like a table-knife. They now began 4111 gradually to descend as they had ascended, and having ob. seined a gravity, in ten minutes they reached terra firma in a fleld belonging to farmer Brown, in the village of' enckfleld, about fourteen miles from Brighton, in one of the most tremendous showers of rain ever remembered. The air slightly rebounded three times on touching the earth ' but not to injure it or the adventurers. There being a club at the house of Mr. Webber. doit King's Heed, in the village, upwards of eighty persous c. me run ring to their assistance, and they were assisted, out of the cur, and conveyed immediately after to the above house, where they experienced the most hospitable treatment. J. Stolwin. Esq., near whose seat they de seetuletl, sent an invitation to them to Ida house, but big. and Mrs. Graham, wishing to get to town. declined the offer. At half-past nine o'clock they left Cuckfiekl in a chaise and four, on the roof of which were the balloon aria, car, and snared safe at their house in Poland-street. Oxforel-street. at half-past two o'clock yesterday morning, where they were received amid the greetings of their friends and committee. It is Mr. Grahams intention to stake another ascent shortly. , ~ • pro the ives nsi.
