The Aliens Regulation Bill was read • second time, after • division, in which the votes in favour of this measure were 119, and those against it (13, Mr. WARD made a very eloquent speech against the Bill, in which he very strongly remarked, that those dangerous characters who in the year ISIS 1,4(1 assembled in the Netherlands, and by their conduct and union there, and their proximity to France, l►ud excited the apprehensions of the British, French, and Belgian Government., mid who had in fact been then represented as the chief cruse for the passing of the Alien Law in this country, had since that period been so fully re stored to the confidence of the French Government, which► had most cause of alarm, that they were all permitted to return to France, and pursue the arts of peace iu their native country. There indeed seems at the present instant no great probability that any foreigners will venture to come to this country to disturb she public tranquillity, and the only object that can now be sought by the re-enact ment of this extraordinary measure is to repose in the hands of the Ministers of the Crown a power that is inconsistent with the general prin ciples of the Constitution. Dr. LUIHINGTON gave notice of a motion for the production of all documents officially received by his Majesty's Government, respecting the nego. , ciations recently discovered between the Govern ment of France and the late Director of the Re public of Buenos Ayres, for the erection of a Monatchy in South America under a Bourbon Prince. We are glad to find that this subject will be noticed by the House of Commons. The House of BOURDON deserves some reproof for this display of ambition. An Address was ordered to be presented to his MAJESTY, praying that a reward should be offered its the Gazette fur the apprehension of Sir Wet.

The new Insolvent Debtors' Bill went through a Committee in the House of Lords yesterday evening. A clause proposed by Lord AUCKLAND, that three Commissioners should preside in the Court instead of one, was agreed to. The produce of the revenue for the last quarter, ended the sth of July, we are happy to learn, ex• ceeds that of the corresponding quarter in the former year by the sum of 743,2351. It is, how. ever, to be considered. that the produce of the new duties, which were calculakd by Mr. VANIIT. TART at more thou 800,0001. a quarter. is in cluded in the receipts of the last quarter; so that if the estimated amount of the new taxes were subtracted from the total produce, the remainder would in fact present a considerable deficiency in the quarter instead of an improvement. We shall publish the details in our next. We have received Paris Papers of Wednesday last. Thediscossion was commenced in the Chamber of Deputies on the preceding day, upon the law of Ways and Means for the current year. General TARSI( RE was the first who ►poke ; his speech was extremely inflammatory— He asked, what would their constituents say to the De puties on their return home? " Will they not say, you have deprived us of the liberty of the press and of personal free dom ; you have deprived us of all that was dear, and you have nut given to us what we all desired, municipal orga nisation, the organization of the National Guard, and the institution of the Jury ?" " The Government vas without support on the Roth of 31Arch, and having uo defence at home, it took refuge in the enemy's line. What would it now du if a similar mis. fortune occurred? What conduct could it pursue, even in the event of a war between the set eral Slates of Europe, which would compel France to choose its party. It would be despised as a friend or as an enemy; it could neither ►uccour its allies, nor resist its eneniies.—(Marinstre con tinua/4 increasing.)-11 was incapable of putting us in safety against occurrences and external attacks, on account of the disaffection of the majority of Frenchmen."--(Load cries of " Order order .'“) 31.

The tragedy of Othello was performed last night ; the hero of the piece by Mr. KEAN. and Desde mona by the Lady (whom we understand to be • Miss MAILMAN) wise had made her first appear ance on any stage in Portia, in the Merchant of Venice, on last Monday isight, which character she repeated on Thurtdoy night. Iler entre last night was greeted with very warm expressions of public favour, which the performance of the part was well calculated to augment. The part was judiciously selected for a third appearance. The lady looked, as it is termed, Alie character per fectly well ; her countenance, manner, and tone of voice, bearing a considerable conformity to the image which the reader forms of the lovely, starred original. Desdemo•a's simplicity, softness, unsuspeeting openness. and confident innocence, were lovelily represented in the performance. The patience. meekness, and placid resignation with which the idolising wife receives the most injurious and heart-rending charges from the lord of her affections, were also personated with great talent. But perhaps the silent sorrow and proginnat anguish which such suspicions must create in a virtuous bo som, might have spoken more feelingly, and worked more visibly in the countenance, than they did to our eyes. Perhaps a better delineation of certain traits of the character could not be desired than was given in Desdeniontr's frank, persevering suit. and renewed solicitations for the restoration of Cassio to his master's favour; but there appeared to us to be something wanting to the expression of that deep sense of wrong, that quick sensibility to in justice, with which such a heart must have been wrung on the communication of (Othello's jealous imaginatious ; however, there were points of exception to this observation, and we would be understood to speak of the performance generally as one of very distinguished merit. and one which would mark the lady who sustained it as a valuable acquisition to any company to which she may hereafter be at tached. It elicited repeated plaudits. Mr. K EAteS Othello was characterised by that truth, strength, and Are, which have long stamped it as one of his most excellent pieces of acting. logo was sustain ed by Mr. POPE in a manlier most creditable to his abilities; in one passage, however, some disratisfacti ))))) excited, as it struck us. by the sen timent, and not the acting, was expressed, on which Mr. POPE addressed the audience, request ing any gentleman to state what cause for dis approbatiun he bad given ; and adding, that lie was there discharging his duty, in the best manner in his power, to the manager and the public. His appeal was answered by cries of 'I Go on." and applause, and the tragedy proceeded. Several passages in the part of Emilia, delivered admirably by Mrs. GLoutt, were most loudly and entliusias licallyopplied by the audience to the circumstances of the investigation pending against her MAJESTY. The other characters were cast in the usual man ner, and the tragedy was very well performed. At five o'clock yesterday the KINO Intik a ride on horseback in the Parka.

The QUEEN and the Princess SOPHIA crossed each other in their carriage* near Kensington on Tuesday last, but not the alighest recognition took place.

This was an action brought by the Plaintiff, who is a ship.chatidler,againq the Defendant, a clergy. mats, unit part owner of the ship Kmanuel. for Mores supplied to that ship, on scconot of the De. fendant. The order for the delivery of the goods was proved to be given by the Defendmit jointly with another part owner ; the delivery of the goods, and the ownership of the Defendant being also ',roved, Mr. Justice Bast charged the Jury, and strongly reprobated the conduct of the Defendant, not only as a clergyman of the Church of England. fur being concerned in trading trace actions, but also for the defence (non-ownership) attempted lb be set up against this action. The Jure immediately returned a verdict for the Plaiutiff—Damages 4001. 16s. AGNEW V. DAVIS. Mr. Sot.tcrron-GeNERAL stated this CAW to the Jury as follows:-The Defendant, in the year 1798, was a carpenter and joiner at Salisbury. where he married, but shortly after, on a disagree. meat with his wife. separated himself from her, and left her iii s most destitute condition ; she. by the assistance of some friends. got into bitsiness as mistress of a little school, by which she maintained herself fir some years at .4alisbury, but leaving that and coming to reside in Lonspon, site learnt that her husband was officiating as minister of a dissenting congregation at Lytaiugton, where she immediately repaired and applied to her husband for support; lie was exceedingly alarmed at her ap. pearance there. aisd he prevailed on her, after some weeks, to go with him to London, to which she emoted, and thought, from what he informed her, that lie was going le take lodgings and live with her at Horton. instead of doing so he took her, it was trite, to lioxton, but it was to a house for the reception) of insane persons, where he left her ; she, at first, imagined that she was there as a lodger; the Jury might easily conceive her sur prise, when she discovered the real slate of the case; she, however, applied by letter to a medical gentleman, with whom she was acquainted, and upon his visiting her and informing the person who kept the house of the impropriety of detaining her. she was discharged ; she afterwards heard of her hos. band being settled at .Dublin as minister of a die. sewing congregation there; she applied to him for a remittance for her support, and Its. a week was paid her fur the last two or three years for her support, not as be belived out of the pocket of the Defeo. dant, but from his wife's brother. The Defeudaut was now in England, officiating as minister at a dissenting chapel, and receiving 3001. a year. His wife had, from the smallness of the pittance allow. ed her, contracted some debts; amongst others. she had become indebted to the Plaintiff fur board and lodging, for a sum altogether amounting to 161. The facts which he thus nakedly stated to explain Isis case would he made oat by the evidence be should Call. anti he had no doubt the Jury would give the Plaintiff, who was a widow, the amount of her demand. The witnesses celled supported the preceding statement of the Leagued Congeal, except that it appeared by the evidence of Mr. Fleetwood, one of the Trustees of the Chapel at which the Defendant now officiates, that his salary was 1401. a•yerrr only. Mr. GURNEY addressed the Jury for the De fendant, and said, from the evidence of Mr. Fleet wood, as to the amount of the Defendant's salary, they might see what credit was to be given to some other parts oft he case as stated by his Learned Friend. The simple facts of the case were these : That the Defendant, when a mere boy of 18 years of age, contracted a marriage with a woman who was at least, thirty years of age ; the violent conduct of this woman induced a separation, which accordingly took place by agreement io writing. by which he engaged to allow her 20. tid. ■ week, which was as much as lie could then afford ; he was afterwards educated for the ministry,ait the expense of some persons who thought he had talents worthy of that sacred calling. and he became a Minister: after ward., as his meutis it,erea►eJ. lie increased the al lowance to his wife from 2s. 6,1. progressively up to 12s, u week, which had beet, regularly paid to her. With respect to the confinement at Horton, it took place under a regular certificate of a medical Gen tleman of respectability at Lymington, whom he would have hail in Court as a witness could he have conceived the matter would have been introduced on the trial of this issue, to which it was quite fo reign. The Plaintiff, he contended, bad no right to recover, as she knew the wife was separated from her husband, nod had a separate maintenance al lowed her. . The brother of Mrs. Davis was called, he swore to tile outrageous luct of Ins sister at Lyming. ton. which lie considered as proofs of insaiinv. H. underwent a severe cross-exinuimit by Mr. So licitor-General. but he positively denied being iu confederacy with the husband against his sister; when he left her at the trued-horse. hr left town immediately, but to commissioned a friend of his, a clergyman. to look after her, and Worm him h u ts she went mi. The agreement for the separation was now put in. but en objection was taken to it as it was signed by the Defendant only. • The SOLICITOR-GsNER•I. replied. Mr. Justice BEST charged the Jury, that if • husband was separated from his wife whilst in low CITCI/11,510111:ell. and he afterwards had his situeties bettered, that difference of situation was commas& cowl to the wife, who thereby became entitled tie sit increased allowance. Will it certainly did appear to him that twelve shillings • week in her situation (being in ill health), with reference to his situation. was not a sufficient allowance. lie could not by any mean% approve the conduct of the Defend ant, iii placing his wife in the house at Hortoti ; hut lie entirely acquitted the brother of any inten tional injustice towards his sister, whom he bad seen in such a state of irritation as to resemble a fit of distractton. lie knew that many clergymen of the Church of England had no mote then 901. to support a family with: it therefore could not he thought but the Defeutlavit might Ilan allowed his wife more than lir. a week out of mt. a year.

TO SE I\ EX. Sia—en reeding in TAM BRITIIIII Pacts * of the Jose your remarks on the Letter addressed by 31r. Owen, Lanark, to the Earl of Liverpool, I was surprised to Is.. person apparently so candid as yourself, complain that MO.. Owen has neglected to explain his object in " plain and perpictious propositions." To me it seems that in the no. ',serous Essays published by that Gentleman on the ssittjt•it, and still more in the reiterated appeals be has evilly deli. vexed, his object has been rendered as dear and intelligible as it is possible to stake it without actual experiment. I have out therefore the presumption to think I can reader light mime visible by any thing I may have to say ; but as Score may not have encoded to the whole of 34r.Oweit'm dare lopesnent of his plait, perhaps he will be enabled to tries out the great trollies of it by attending to the followiag explanation 1. From eireousstanees which it would be useless to detail, thousands of able-bullied persons within this empia. floosieh willing to work, are destitute of employment, asd are come. pelted to waste their time and consume their energies is downright laziness, consequently in vice and misery. 2. When these persons are not absolutely starved, they are supported by some fund or other, which must be is/at, geode to that purpose. 3. This fund, which is drawn in some way or other Bite the labours of the industrious (aad form an oppressive pure of the public harden) is capable of being mortgaged foe's short time, and, aided by the contribetime of the beware. lest, might asestitote a sort of revalue Is pay the isle/allot the capital to be employed is the astemmrlimh, peal of Oweses project. . 4. With thecapilal *bus railed Mr. 00.10 Were" villages foe the accommodation of Om eked ma boveaell timed. Each village to contain from KO be"1,1114/0 ants, according to local eircumistsoces. S. These villages will be cuistructed on a new principle, which conshines the most useful erieelsmic improvement's with the most alienist application of manual labour, sad miles the utmost possible comfort with the greatest possi ble economy. 0 Few individuals therefore beinfraquired to manage the domestic concerns of each establodusieut, the bulk of the community will be employed under the most skilful dirre. norm, partly in spade cultivation, sod partly in the mans facture of such useful articles as est comports with the in. tacos of each community. 7. After the comfortable accommodation of the villagers has been duly provided fur the overplus of their prodactions will be sold, awl the proc eeds at lint applied to discharge the debt incurred by erecting the village, and will after. wards embolden a Nod fur the benefit of the villagers them . selves. 8. The edecatiost of the villagers will eimaist partly of solid instraiiiion in the most useful arts, and the best prac tient knowledge, bat chiefly in • demonstrative proof being thus afforded then of the great advantage tu be derived from mutual co.operatioa, contrasted with individual each Sion, counteraction, and hostility. This happy combination of personal exertions with public utility, this identity of individual and politic interest, is what I apprehend Mr. Owen calls " The science of the in decree of circuoustences," because every preens concerned will distinctly feel and fully compiebeed the important ad. vantages of this social system. Mr. Owen therefore dues nut pledge himself to any ape. cific plan of education, with respect to matters of opinion, knowing of how little valise those distinctions •re laming sseighbustra who know their duty, and who are placed in such eirconastances as must convisce every member of each com munity, that the good of each individual consists iu the good of all. For proof of the advantages of the social system, Mr. Own invites attentiou to accounts which have heels pub lished of its successful regalia in the village of New Har mony, in the establishment of Mr. rellesibourg, and above all, is his own colony at New Laaark, which has so often drawn forth admiration and pities from many of our en lightened countrymen; not that way of thew establishments present • fair gaged of the one projected by Mr. Owen ; un the contrary, they are one and all defective in some one or other of the great principles of economy or of scientific , ar rangement, which be wishes to blend into usefulness and 'mammy. That the selfish, the prejudiced, and the interested, should be usable to comprehend these propositions, is not sur prising; the simplicity of them must be lost in the tally rindss of their crooked policy, and their sublime magnifi retie" obscured by the clouds of their sordid passions ; but that benevolent gad unprejudiced minds should experience the same difficulty, is not only surprising but deplorable ; because ' with all the advantages of power, wealth, haven. andlion, an d industry, which ibis nation so pre-eminently pos sesses over every other; there is no other way of delivering her out of that bottomless gulf of pauperism, into which she bas been plunged by madness and fully. If Senrx is really in this predicanseut, I should be glad to know kis particular objections, and, until opportunity of his getting information from the Neiman' bead, shall be ready to supply him with suet, explaaations as my imperfect know ledge esables we tu impart. I do uo not think Mr. Owen "medium the chimerical hope of Lela: able ea once to re-model society actualise to his owe plan ; but Ido think it is su his power, *lib proper aids, to exhibit inch • specimen of social happiness as would inspire throughout the country a general wish to be places, in similar circumstances, rather than continue is that tor nseuting state of anxiety and petty warfare which attends every condition of life nuder existing systems. This desire once excited, would accomplish its own ob ject, without requiring the omnipotence of Parliament, or waiting fur the consent of posterity. The gradual change might immediately commence, and proceed with such cele rity as to place even the present generation in a state of bsppiness above their most sanguine expectation. I think with Sews, that the Earl of Liverpool has no more influence In guiding public opinion, with reference to this object, than Mr. Owen has; but the Earl of Liverpool has certainly superior means of either encouraging or of re pressing inquiry into the cause of our calamities ; sod it is with this view that Mr. Owen seems to invoke his afie•-• 4 tiros ; for if the public are either prevented or discourager from examining such plans as may be proposed fur tharl relief, bow can their understandings be informed, or lispiti judgments satisfied. as to the leudeney, practicability, oe, utility of the most judicious scheme that human windemi could devise fur their bereft?
