1 Legislature ; as a measure of policy the impoi tiou of our 'tamp duties militates against . every prin t iple of political wisdom, and even as a fiscal ar eteipmeut their magnitude defeats the purposes of the Government. Mr. ROBINSON submitted his promised motion to the House relative to the trade of the West In dia Colonies, and obtained leave to bring in • Bill far opening a direct communication between err t tin poi te in our West Indian Colonies and the Con idieuta-of Europe awl America. The terms and conditions of this communication are such us we have already coniniuniciated to our readers. This measure must be cousidered as a great relaxation in our colonial system, and a wide departure from the ordinary principles which have governed all Eutopean nations iu regulating the trade of their foreign Colonies. It is undoubtedly • great boon to the Colonist., but we lament to find that if some decisive measure of this nature were not adopted for affording relief to the Co lonists, there was a danger that the Colonies would to all useful purposes be neglected or abandoned. The last few years have operated • frightful change in the value of colonial property, nod even in the best culti►ated and most fruitful of the West Indian Islands the estates, instead of reliev agony portion of their burden., have been unequal to The discharge of their ordinary expenses of manage ment. Tu extend this contemplated relief to them is therefore not less • measure of sound ;volley then of humanity. No opposition was offered to Mr. Ro nsition's motion for leave to bring in the Bill, but objections are seldom started in thts•preliniinary stage of any measure. We are given to understand that the British shipping interests are apprehensive of being prejudiced by this measure, •ud threaten to give it their utmost opposition. Om Paper of yesterday contained • report of the proceedings on Saturday at the Thatched House 'Tavern, ot► the subject of a monument to the me mory of our late most gracious and revered Kinn. We rejoice to find the execution of that work con firmed in the hands of Mr. WYATT, and are only surprised that an attempt should have been ever made to wrest it from them. The plan originated entirely with Mr. WYATT, and has already engross ed • considerable portion of his industry and time, The patronage which it has obtained is the fruit of the exertions of himself and his friends, and in giv ing it publicity he has incurred considerable ex• penile. His talents, which are well known and high ly appreciated, recommend him as en artist in every respect worthy of the undertaking ; and, what is per haps no minor consideration, from the kindness which his father received from our late gracious Sovereign, he iv the very man whom his MAJESTY would proba bly have orleeted for the undertaking, could such • purpose have ever entered into his contemplation. No other artist could have preferred so many and powerful claims; • successful resistance to them would hove been not only ungracious, but a glaring injustice. This great national work being now finally and decidedly committed to his cure, we hope the liberality of the public will t►nable him to execute it in • manner worthy of the subject. We have received Cork and Limerick Papers to the 2311) last, and the Dublin Papers of Saturday. They are chiefly occupied with • report of the trials ender the Insurrection Act, and •lso com municate some new outrages of the ordinary cha t:lcier. The criminal calendar of persona Ur trial at the ensuing Alai:roof Cork already amounts to the enormous, and, we believe, unprecedented, Number of three hundred and fifty ! —..----- We announced yesterday a considerable fluctua- Can in the funds of Saturday, iu consequence of an a.count received by express from Pans, of a fall of i. per cent. in the French funds. The cause of the Jorge sales is the French funds, and their conse quent depression on Thur►day, is now said to have leen the receipt of intelligence from Brest. annouuc ing.that the military in that place were in a state of inSubordimition, that the gales were closed, and all icgress and eg►ers prohibited. The particulars not Laving transpired, the alarm will probably prove to base been much greater than the actual danger.

It is generally believed, and with gnat probs.*. lity, to be the remains of Titom•s (afterwards cauosised as a Saint) Earl of Lancaster, Steward of England, who was beheaded is the reign of Edward 11. on Monday, March 22, 1322 (according to Holinslied), upon a bill which now bears the name of St. Thomas's Hill, situated on the site of his own castle to the east ; it is also recorded that he was buried Is the church of the Priory of Pontefract, but his burly being begged by the Monks, was supposed to have been mire pri vately bittern-J.

They ins. mediately informed their employer (Mr. Mills, the Lord of the Manor, sad late M.P. fur that place), who, On esamiu fug the site, along with I hundreds of persons, found the remains to he those of the highly renowned John or Gaunt. A Doctor Hexhy, of celebrity le that neighbourhood, aerie. ing first at the spot, took away the skull, which was very per fect, and coutained a Afflict of sound teeth, perfectly white.
