The Millet*s of the last Court haviog been read— The Citallama (John Pattison, E•q.) proposed, that a Resolution of the Court of Directores,' of the precediwg day. recommending that ■ dividend of 31 per cent, on the Company'. capital stock. fur the half-year commencing the sth of January last, and ending on the sth of July next, should be agreed to by the Proprietors. The motion was carried in the affirmative. after a few words from Mr. /lynx. who complained, that, in conformity with the By-Low.. there ought, annually, to be laid before the Proprietors aro account of the net profits of the Company, which had not been doue—and, in the absence of such an account, it was impossible for him to my. whether the proposed firvidend was as just one or soot. COMMITTEE OP BY-LAWS. Mr. CUMMING presented the Report of the Committee of By-Laws, whose functions expired this dry. The Report expressed the satisfaction of the Committee at not discovering. through the put year, any violation of the Company's Laws. The gentlemen who served on the Committee of By-Laws were then re-elected, with the exception of Mr. Whitshed Keene and Mr. Alexander Bating, in whose places Messrs. J. Darby and J. H. Tritton were elected. SHIPPING ACT. The Ceatax,►x stated, ihat the Bill for amend ing and consolidating into one the several Acts re lative to the hiring of the Company's skips, had passed into • law. Mr. R. JACKSON took that opportunity of stat ing his hostility to the measure. In his opinion, the whole of the shipping system ithould undergo a re vision. Mr. Flumc reiterated the objections to the Bill. which ha had advanced on former occasions. The Hon. Proprietor the• proceeded to offer some re marks on certain papers that had been presented to Parliament. Care, he observed, ought to be taken that the regulations of the different Presidencies. which were. in fact, the Acts of Parliament b y which their East India territories were should be sent to this country as speedily as possi ble. They had a right to expect, that. in the year 1818, • greater body of regulations than those drawn up in 1815 and part of 1816, should have been sent home. Some system ought also to be adopted to ensure the speedy transmission of me morials from their officers abroad, to the Court of Directors. The CHAIRMAN said, that the regulations, though not presented to Parliament, had been received up to the end of 1817. Orders were about to be trans mitted from the Court of Directors, which would, in future, prevent any unnecessary delay—and with respect to memorials, orders would also be given, that no delay should take place in their transmission. IT. HELENA. Mr. Hums observed, that from the papers laid before Parliament, it appeared, that the expenses incurred in keeping up an establishment at St. Helena, had greatly increased. For the year May, 1815, it was 79,0001.—f0r 1816, it amounted to 106,0001.—f0r 1817, to 147,0001. E for 1818, /73.0001. He wished to know, were the Company to make pod this expense—or was part of it payable by the Government The Cftttttt,►u said, the East India Company were not liable to pay any pert of the expense beyond what St. Helena had usually coat them. The surplus was debited and charged to his Ma jesty's Government. COLLEGE PENSIONS. Mr. Huns now called the attention of the Court to the College Pensions, which, he conceived, were not properly granted. There was a pension of 2001. to Edward Christian, Esq. late professor of civil law, who was, at present, as well able to per.. form the duties of the profesimoihip as ever he was. He also observed a pension of 1201. to a French master—and not more was granted to Dr. Gil christ, one of the ablest Oriental scholars that e►er existed. The CHAIRMAN strongly deprecated observations of this kind, which could be made with no other view but to lower the Executive Body in the eyes of the Proprietors. Mr. Gaswr looked upon the proceeding of the Hon. Proprietor, as extremely unconstitutional. If he chose to bring forward any specific motion, the Directors would meet it manfully, but it was quite impossible to answer those desultory attacks. Mr, R. J AMON contended that his Hon. Friend had • right to animadvert on papers regularly brought before the Proprietors. MR. HUDLESTON AND COLONEL WILES. Mr. fiIIiDIASTON said, he was desirous to lay before the Proprietors a Report which he had drawn up and submitted to the Court of Directory, on the 30th ult. It related to the accusation made against him in Colonel Willis's History of the South If India. He hoped it would be found to be a complete refutation of that statement. But, ►hould he be disappointed in that hope. it would be his duty, as he had already intimated, to retire from the Direction without a murmur. He then movrd— " Tbat the letter writtao on the 3051, ult. to the C.ourt of Directors by Juba Iludlesloa , E.q. be ouw real—.sad that copies of it should afterwards be left open et that House fur the perusal of the Proprietors." The letter, which was exceedingly long, went into a history of the peace of Mangalore, to 'sego. cute which with Tippoo, in 17e4, Mr. Sadlier, Sir G. Staunton, and Mr. Iludleaton, were appoint ed Commissioners—and denied, in the most decid ed terms (she denial being supported by a chain of argument, drawn from circumstances, and strength ened by documents), the accusation made in Colour! Wilhs's book, aroma Mr. liutileatun and Sir G. Staunton, on the authority of a malt e menial ser vant, that, fearful of personal violence, they had planned their escape to a ship in Mangalore road,', and Intended to leave Mr. Smellier mud their ritesidants to their fate. The document Wring been rend— Sir 11. Russ, i.i. wul . when he considered the way in which Mr. Iludkstou had hven ac-elcch.d, not a sinOe scratch having barn placed mg liars% he could not. fur II moment, doubt but that the Proprietors were perfectly satisfied of his i 111 l eerier. With this feeling, it would be as well if an extinguisher were now put ou the busiaess Mr. FlunLarrom said, he had giveu a pledge to the Proprietors.--that pledge he had redermed—it resneined for them to act as they pleased—auk', with their permission, he would withdraw. Ur. flume, who introduced the question origi nally to the Court. defended himself from the im putation of having m ode an attack on the Honour able Director. He hail, in fact. brought the subject forward to enable the Hun. Director to rebut the charge. if possible. Mr. K. JACILSOX Wild • very high compliment to the character of Mr. Horlleaton—but expressed his opinion that the subject could not rest herr. It would be necessary for the Court to come to u vote upon it. The letter was theu ordered to lie on the table— land, ou the motion of Mr. HUME. I 110CU_ metal'. connected with the subject, were ord e r e d t o be produced for the perusal of the Proprietors.

He (ibe Prosecutor) drove him up against the seutry-box, sad called to the yea try, who came up, but refused to interfere, saying it was not his business. The Prisoner also said the sentry would nut take him in charge, as be was his comrade, and besides ac cased the Prosecutor of offering bins two guineas to commit as unnatural crime. Pm/scalar called him a d—d rascal, sad repeated his request to the sentry. Thu latter still re fusing, the Primmer ran away, and as he passed the sentry, the Prosecutor fancied he saw him put something tato kis band, and on coming up, found the corner of his cravat in the sestry's hand, which he took, and produced in Court.

Next saw the Prisoner at Mr. Jarusio's, a silversmith's shop, in the Strand; while he was in the shop, not concealed, beard Prisoner say that a gentleman bad given him the watch, and that that gentleman was nut present. Did not give the Pri soner the watch. LYwa►eznsstaad—Did not street any person before he cane to the bridge ; did not know he had any money about bins; the reason he did nut go in the guard-house was, he was disaaaded from so doiug by a geutlentan he aid shortly after the transaction, and be was ignorant that the Prisoner was a soldier, hs hawing beta dressed iu dark coloured clothes.

On the 45th May, a very valuable watch was brought to his shop by ahoy to have a globs put in it; his suspicions being ex. tiled, asked the boy to oboes it belonged, who replied, to a soldier, drinking at his hoses, the Three Jolly Smirkers, in Hangerford Market; told the bey to leave the watch; went for an Officer, and brought him down to the Three Jolly Butelseeti, and went in, leaving the officer outside; was told the owner of the watch wig gone out ; returned bume, sod kept the officer io waiting; a few minutes after the Pri. sneer came into his shop very drunk, and us belts' ques. tioned, said a gentleman gave him the "batch. Mr. Hooker came in shortly after and said, that is the person who took my watch. Crost-arisasined—Prisuner said be was sure the gentleman who gave him the watch, would never come forward—be had attempted to take unnatural liberties with him. Mr. Hooker remarked—" Teo, this is • charge I expected, soldiers always make these charges." Witness observed, that order the circumstances, it was better he should take his property, and say no more about it, which he seemed willing to do, but Mr. Edmond,, the maker of the watch, who had come in, said, " No, Mr. Hooker, you must clear your chit. ratter." Prosecutor requested the examination might he put off till fiat day, ekes he should advise with his friends, whether be should prosecute or nut.

They desire to ALsoure yowl' Holinr.s, that 1111 (hauler of eirentnxtaners *hall ever 'mine, them to iiiterritpt that aye rildal eormesion with the Huly See, which they esteem to tie esseatial to the Citholfe ennintunion,,and whirl' their an cestors protected stud presented in slifiture of moat cruel persecutions, and the t *eductive tesuptationa. It isoltirefore, with deep regret, that they tinil them. selves called np.ott to sulinsit to the paternal cousiilenition of their Huly Father, any expression of ilisappi o i eee meld or clO*Ntisfachuo ; hut their teal for the preservaii ssss of their Religion colonels them to unfold to his Holiness the sub ject* of their anxiety and the source, of their afll ction. They could not with safe conscience adutit , that they dis cover, la the recent comfort of the *deniers or the S..e of Home, any proof of au eSistios reciprocity of attachment. It would stem to have been furvitten, that the conduct and perseverance of the Roman Catholics of !related had entitled them to may share of mood, ur even of favourable toomitlerslioo—the Rule:yrs of threw centuries ■pprrr to be slresaly forgotten, soul the *reboot pt. ore of the pre sent generation it uut I steward worthy of tieing tekeu into ectousti. We pod forth so claims to gratitude. What Ihr Catholics Of Ireland did in soopport of their religion, they did it nut from hums./ respect, but fur God's glory and direr own aanetiiestions; unit with cheerful hearts do they avow the instils& which they owe to Providence for their preserva tion, udtwilltstandong the contiuited danger. of persecution and neglect. The Catholics of Ireland have observed with painful 1.1110. thins the marked disinclination ceinced at Home, to enter tain their moist bu m bl e solicitations for atteution. Nearly two years have elapsed since they foi wanted to the Holy See an Address and Remonstrance, by the hands of flour dele gate, the Rev. Richard Hayes; to this respectful gammon,- cation, to the sentiment of which they unalterably adhere, no answer has bees, obtained, nor has any manifested to cherish those Catholic priiiciplea *lnch in duced Obit Address. This sense of indifference is much ag gravated, when the Catholics of Ireland observe all active anxiety evinced to forward the wishes, and aeciunplish the purposes of that Power, which persecuted our ancestors, awl still oppresses their posterity. on account of their ad 'service to the Catholic Faith. The c .... commation of our Jinni tmeut is accomplished by the hatosliment of the faithful Delegate of near six millious of the most constant and attached members of the Catholic Chinch. We sincerely lament the necessity which obliges us to ad dress this Remonstrance to your Holiness, whose character we venerate with unequalled attachment : we cannot for a moment entertain the belief, that the coudeica against which we complain, could hive beeu approved of by the Head of the Catholic Church, or sanctioned by him. We catanot suppose that your Holiness would willingly discountensuce the prayer of the Irish Catholics to preserve their faith sad discipline front the intrigues sad hostilities of the avowed enemies of their Church. Neither can we 'Ovoids, the opinion, that your Holiness would direct, ur willingly admit, that the Delegate of so large a body of Ca• tholies, whose conduct was must earnestly approved of by his constituents, and who possesses, as he well merits, their confidence, esteem, and gratitude, 'Mould have beeu con. signed toss ignominious exile,without the institution ofauy judicial proceeding, or without coy representation of conduct being attempted. This Booed can feel no difficulty in eacertaining that this offensive indignity did not arise from any misconduct on the part of the Irish Delegate; on the contrary, they attri bute it to she tut, successful iutrigues and iefbleeee of the enemies to the Catholic Religion ita Ireland, who considered the expulsion of the Rev. Mr. Hayes from Home, a neces sary preliminary step towards the accomplishment of their hostile purposes. For we hive it 4111.11 with regret, that a lay interference bag taken place at Rome in the strains of the Catholics of Ireland. We solemnly protest ■gaiost the interference o f the Statesman, to whom, its particular, we allude; and we distinctly renounce any submission to him or him measures. We will not yield to a Minister what we would nut concede to his Master--the right of interfering in our temporal af fairs. Our intercourse with Rome is exclusively confined to spiritual CO•Cerlii ; and we never can agree to have that in tercourse regulated by the interests of the Court, or to have it direeted by the political Minister. . . . . We cannot avoid declaring to your Holiness, that our ap prehension of undue amid temporal iuterfesroce see much in creased by learning that your Holiness imams to be address. ed iu person by one of the most active opponents to the in. depentleuce and purity of the Irish Catholic Church, Sir John Cox Hippisky. We earnestly conjure your Holiness to give us credit to his representations of asy portion of the Irish people. He leas exhausted all the repunrors of his ingenuity to bud precetkaate of degradation and despotism in ecclesiastical nutters, in order to apply them to the pre judice of the Catholic Claims in Ireland. We implore you, Moat Holy Father, to prnteet,hy a timely interposition, the Catholics of Ireland eeriest the dangers which impend over them. We entreat your Holiness to allay all rational alarms, by establishing such a Concordat with the Bishops of our Church in !related, sa will render the election of their successors perfectly domestic and purely Catholic; and will, at the same time, immature the institution to the person so to be elected. We ergo this measure the more earnestly, because we know it to be approved of by every class amid rank of Catholics, ecclesiastical and laical, in Ireland. Such a measure would satisfy the doubts of every Protestant 11111111, nut bent me the autsibilation of the Catholic Faith, and would at the same time relative all the sources of disunion which generate hostility in the Ca tholic Body. Most Holy Father, we further pray your Holiness to cause to be revoked the order of bauishment which has been issued out against our Delegate. With a view to allay the feelings of dismay which now universally and most power. fully agitate the minds, and affright the eunecieuces of your long persecuted and ever faithful Catholic Children in Ireland.
