He re mained with the Prince above an hour. The harbour Of Cslais is almost entirely blocked up by the ice. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, JANUARY 15. Tie Ministerial Bench is occupied by the Mi nisters fur Foreign Affairs, the Marine, and the Finances. M. Decozes was not present. After the re:0;0g of the primes verbal of the previous sitting, the Chamber resumed the discus sion on the Petitions relative to the law of elections. M. Mechin rose, and said-44 Can any tiling be conceived stranger than what is now passing before our eves? To what sorrowful reflections has not this discussion given birth ? Principles hitherto avowed now treated with haughty disdain ! the first elements of the representative system repro ti,to; ! the most incontestable right of every free itssiiiled witiacut delicacy ! wishes, the most Legitimate for the maintainance of established or der, designated as revolutionary ! the depositaries of power this day abandoning the language they field yesterday ! petitions, which last year were cuscred with your applause, now oared to your animadversion ! and finally your Committee, with out any regard to precedents, to your dignity, or their own consistency, propasing to you to annul, by a reprobative formula of the order of the day, the petitions of 90.000 citizens, who warn you to be carersl that the country shall receive no injury ! Such are the prospects we new .see, and such I Oostil net have believed I should have ever seen !" He then entered largely into the question of the right of petitioning; censured those political Mi oistrrial writers, who said that the right of peti tioning ought to be organised; and applauded the 3!tilli•iits of the Law School, for what he called the ~thasiiitar of their young patriot hearts.—(lklur ,.lrs and laughter on the right.)—" I defy any vile," he resumed, " to find a better or nobler epithet." M. Josue Brauvoir—The right of petitioning is sacred ; it is the noblest sod most valuable of those guaranteed by the Charter. If we are. to judge of the importance of things by the time we devote to them, the petitions are of a serious iisture. In the last year, if I mistake not, they commenced, and they prolonged the Session two months. The right of petitioning is inseparable from • re. presentative Government, but it is easy to abuse it. It will not be questioned that when a petition complains of a denial of justice, the infraction yr a law, or of an iudividaal wrong, it is sacred in our eyes ; but shall we say the same of these petitions which have matters of legislation auJ of policy fur their objects ? Is it proper that the Chamber *Weld violate the charter and degrade its power, lose its consideration without, and sur render its legislative powers to the good pleasure of factious men and coliectors of petitions ? He then remarked upon the evils that may result Irons collective petitioning. Collective petitions commenced in 1791, the destrUction of social or der; in 179.2 they demanded the dethronement of the Monarch, and afterwards his death ; and on the t of January 179 J opened the abyss in which were iogulfrd the petitioners and their protectors. 1::;(1.1 Bonaparte they disappeared. His Govern uttnit, all action, did nut approve of them. The ishricators of petitions kept silence until 1818. The re-appearance of collective petitions will be the renewal of the revolution. After some obser vations uptut the manner in which the present peti tions wcte prepared, lie concluded by agreeing with the motion for the Order of the Day. M. Dutne,let 'poke urn the right of peti- toning. M. de Villele said, that in his opinion it was im possible f. r the present Session to close without V-.eir making some alterations in the law of elec tions or in the clisrlei.—(Violent murmurs on the left.) —lie should consider it very dangerous if some changes were not made, for not seeing any legal means for the Government to maintain itself .iinJ save the country, he very much feared that the Government would be duvet' to the neces • stty of effecting its object by illegal means. It was fur the wisdom of the Chamber to me ditate upon these consequences, and not to au thorise them by an ill-judged refusal to support the Government—a refusal of which the comic- queticev would recoil upon themtelve9—and Rot caupel the Government to hive recourse to violent measures, which would annihilate every thing they would with to preserve.—( Violent expression of disapprobation on the left side. Benjamin Constant, de Correlks. and others speak altogether in the midst of the tainalt.—Cries of " Hear, hear.") M. de V.lttle attempted to enter into some de tails in support of his opinions, but he was inter. rapted by the clamours of the left side. After some difficulty he we. permitted to speak, and concluded by saying. that the mode of election then pursued seemed to him to compromise the safety of their institutions. He did not lenient to the opinions of the petitioners whit would sup• port the existinK system. He should therefore vote for the Order of the Day. M. Courvoisier ascended the Tribune. He re marked that in a representative government there were three elements . ; the democracy, the aristo cracy, and the monarchy. In England the aris tocracy is imposing ; it neutralizes the democracy. In France it is not the tame; the aristocratic ele ment can never preponderate. The monarchy must always be predominant. He remarked, that on many former occasions no objections were made to collective petitions, and concluded by moving that these petitions be deposited in the burrito, with the exception of such as might he pointed out by the Reporter of the Committee, as offensive either to the King or to the Chamber. Voices on the left side—Supported ! M. Leine, in remarking upon the petitions, ob served, that the Chamber appeared to him impa tient to he engaged in modifying the present elec toral system. Voices from the left—Yo. ao ! that's false ! niers from the right--.Y em ! yes ! M. de Corcelles—lts false ! we have no such im patience, nor hrs the nation. M. Leine—When I spoke of impatience, I al luded not to one side only, but to both. Both parties denounce the abuses of the present systetn, and I am thereby justified in saying that both F,eetn anxious to introduce alterations.—(Shou ts of " Bravo !")—Yon have been told of the aristocracy of England. The aristocracy of France is not suf ficiently strong.—(Violent murmurs on the left.) — I speak of that aristocracy which in all well constituted States ought wisely to befriend the throne and to protect the people. In saying, that in France it is not sufficiently strong. I am supported by the opinion of a wise politi cal writer.—(Approbation on the right.).—He then argued upon the abaunlity of supposing, that any law, once established, ought never to be alter ed, if the course of events rendered alteration meet. sary ; and concluded, by expressing his concur._ rence with those Members who required the order of the day. The closing of the discussion was then loudly demanded. The question for closing it was put to the voice. The first proof was doubtful. The President declared that a second was necessary.— (Agitation and clamours on the kJ'? side.) The discussion was again resumed, and M. Ma nuel ascended the tribune. lu the course of his observations upon the principle of altering the law of elections, lie asked, whether on the occasion of the threatened changes all France should be af fected by stupor ? M. de Marcellus—i , Your 39,000 petitioners do not compose all France."--(Lirely interruption, and agitation in the Tribunes.) The P►taldent—You should not interrupt him. M. de Marcellns—lt is a false assertion. M. Mechin—lt is the truth. M. Manuel—l de not complain of interruptions. They 'hew that a speaker must give proofs for his assertions. A violent agitation then arose at the bottom of the ►lall. Several Deputie4 of the Centre called the Tribunes to silence. Smile hisses were heard, and some bravos. M. Bourdeau—l demand to speak upon a point of order. The President—You are not in costume. M. Demircity and others—Speak. however. Let him speak. M. Bourdesu required that strangers should excluded. The President said it would be sufficient if the Ushers were to turn out every pervon who was seen to make a noise. The Minister for Foreign Affairs rose, for the purpose of making a remark upon an expression which had been used by the former speaker (M. Manuel). The Member had said, that a profound stupor reigned in all France, and that it extended itself throughout Europe.—( Muratori on the left, and cries of " He did not say so.")—The King declared to you with truth, that there exists a great inquietude, which is founded upon the necessity that is felt by the majority of Fiend'. men of giving to our institutions such a sta. bility as it is not supposed they have as yet acquired.—(Cries of " Bravo ! " and murmurs.) —As fur foreign countries, the reputation of the King's *onion, is great among them. his words hate" never excited inquietude or aiLiron, on the coutrary, they have the best assurance to Europe, that France will never again become what for her misfortune she has been. Yesterday one of my honourable colleagues. M. Benjamin Constant, apprised you, that the department of the Sarthe furnished more subscriber. than any other, because it was more oppressed. Will you know the cause of their alarms ? A writing was profusely circulated in the department ou the 17th of November, sign ed Goyet, threatening a return of the ancien regime, and all the ancient abuses. It announced the most terrific things. Was not such a work cal. culated to excite lively alarms ? I persist in desir ing the Order of the Day. M. Benjamin Constant observed. that the writing alluded to was circulated previous to the °prolog of the Chambers, in that it was not the speech IF frdm the thimie that originated the idea of the petitions. After some further cosiversition, the aebate was at length closed ; and on a scrutiny or the votes, ou the question of the order of the day, there appeared for the order of the day. 117 white balls--againot it, 114. The order of the day was therefore adopt ed, by a majority of five votes. The sitting was adjourned at half past six o'clock. THE BRIT' SU I)I{ESS. LON DON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 21, 1820. Last night we received Paris Papers of Sunday. The Chamber of Deputies met on the preceding day, when, notwithstanding his reported illness, M. PASQUIER appeared in his place on the Minis terial Bench, but the Count DECAZES and M. Ds SKRRO were absent. The discussion was resumed ou the famous Petitions against the proposed alters. tient, in the law of elections. The debate was animated, and on a division the motion for passing to the Order of the Dsy on the Petitions was adopted by a majority, 117 against 112. The Petitions were therefore rejected by a majority of only five voices. if this division might be re ceived et an indication of the sentiments entertained hy the Chamber upon the alterations proposed by the Alinisters in the law of elections, it holds out an indifferent prospect of success to the adventur ous mass who shall undertake to submit the matter to the consideration of the Legislative Bodies. Possibly the ant►cipation of this powerful cosposi. tion may account for the intlispusitiun of M. DE SEERS and of I. Pssuursa. The Chamber adjourned without having fixed a day for the next meeting. The Five p►rr Cent's. were 72 fr. 30 c. Bank Stock 1,422 fr. 50 c. It is stated in the Jamaica Papers of the Oth of November, that General BOLIVAR has been dr fe•ted by the Royalist General LA TORRE, in three successive engagements, and that the former has been compelled to fall back rapidly upon Santa Fe, whither he was pursued by the con queror. Neither time nor place is assigned for any of these victories, nor is the mystery explained as to the means by which LA ToRRE received • rein forceineot of 3,000 men, by which he was enabled to beat BOLIVAR. The Jamaica Papers have *mi. fermly endeavoured to give a gloomy colouring to the affairs of the South American Patriot's; hut events have hitherto proved the incorrectness of their representations, or the falsity of their predic tions. Wt. must therefore decline receiving the accounts transmitted from the scene of action th gh the Jamaica Journals with perfect coral deuce ; nut from any distrust in the integrity of those who conduct the papers, but because we fear that they are made the instruments of others, whoie interests prompt them to circulate false intelli gence. We doubt the present statements respect ing LA TORRE'S victories, because we know that the Royalists had on almost every point been so closely pressed, that one General could not, with out the risk of immediate ►uio, venture to send so large a force as J,OOO men to the assistance of an other, and no troops have lately sailed from Spain to recruit the Royal armies in Armin:3. The Jamaica Papers state that the I.louse of As sembly met on Tuesday, the 4d of November, fur the dispatch of business. A Treasury Journal of last night charges the Opposition with hostility to the Duke of WEL LINGTON. It says— " The Party can neither forget our forgive the grievous injuries they have received from the baud, of the Duke of waLuxoTom. His Grace's victories were u• less the de feat of the Oppositiouolnu of the enemy to wham be was opposed in the field. And must of all do they lamest his victory al Waterloo, which, by the single exploit of • day, covered with eternal ridicule the prophecies o; the Whigs duriug three mouths." . 'Phis assertion, which is notoriously fal.e, has been often made in the same quarter. Its repeti tion uow can only prose injurious to the writer, as perseverance in falsehodrinfitt excite disgust. It is outlier of histmicel record, that the war languish ed in the Peninsula, and would have continued to languish, had not the Oppueition in Parliament called forth the energies of the country in its support. To the pressing demand for so f plies, the Minister ill his place in Parliament repeatedly and peremp torily declared his inability to furnish them, and it these demands and representations had not been i backed by the eloquence and activity of the Oppo sition, thole waists would never have been supplied. It is to the calumniated Whig, the Duke of Wsturtorou is indebted for his victories, be cause it was by their exertions he was furbished with the means of conquest. Those who would represent them as his enemies, seem to forget that Marquis WELLESLEY, his Grace's brother, co operated in these exertions with the Whigs, who are now falsely accused as adverse to his fustune sod lois fame ; and when his victorious career was run, and it became u question of honours and reward for his services, who were the loudest in his praise, said most liberal in their views of com planation for his great and glorious services ? The .. reports of the debate! is 'Parliament, WWI the Opposition. Upon that occasion, too, it is mus tier.* that they even went before the Minister in their liberality and expression of gratitude and ad miration ; amid well they might, for in his Grace's success they hod to congratulate themselves upon the success of their own exertions in his cause. must prove extremely gratifying to every humane mind to witness the numerous proofs of active and disinterested benevolence which the Metropolis at this moment presents. Not merely is money 13 a large amount liberally given to re lieve the distresses of our fellow -creatures, but many Gentlemen, and even Ladies, have consented, so keg Rothe occasion may require, to forego every con►ideration of personal convenience, arid have generously devoted themselves to superintend the applicition of public charity in such • manner that the current of benevolence might he most 1111/Vdll. tageously directed. The funds already placed at the disposal of the Committee appointed to super intend the project for affording temporary relief to the destitute amount to 9,0001., and since the first slay of the subscription, the objects of the charity have been carefully and satisfactorily fulfilled. This Committee are warmly assisted in their exertions by the Seamen's Committee, and it is most gratifying to us to add, that both re ceive the worn co-operatinn of the Government. It has been computed that four-fifths of the persons who derive relief from the Charity for the Ile.tittite are seamen, who have been thrown out or em ployment in consequence of the severity of the frost. It is, therefore, to be hoped, that with the return of fine weather much of the exertions of the Committees will be rendered unnecessary : but iii the mean iSe to render their mutual co operation more effective for their common object, both Committees met yesterday at the Mansion house, for the purposes of arrangement. These, however, are by no means the only " Charities" at present in active operation in the Metro polis. The baud of benevolence is extended to various other objects, aid irs no quarter is the cry of distress uttered in vain. There is an universal concurrence of all ranks to lighten the calamities, which, during the severity of the season, may have fallen upon their less fortunate countrymen, and in props, as the distress has been severe, so has the benevolence of the rich !teen unsparingly exerted. A requisition to the Mayor of Newcastle. for • Meeting in favour of Parliamentary Reform to the extent of Mr. LAMSTOX's motion, is in course of signature, and will be presented in a day or two. It already contains a number of most respectable names. From the general feeling of the town there c•nt be no doubt but that a Meeting for such a Reform will be very numerously attended. We hear that district petitions for Reform are in contemplation in the counties of Northumberland and ham.—This is a plan of petitioning under the present restrictions as to public meetings which we much approve. In addition to the losses sustained at sea in the late heavy gales noticed in our ship news, we regret to meta the following Extract of a letter from the Agents to Lloyd's at Mar. gate, dated 19th instant Two small boats are washed un shore near Hitching.,,,,, Juhu Day, narked on the stern of one of them, mid Commercial, of Aberdeen, David Talbot, painted on the stern of the other."

The Speculator, Gould. from England and Lima to Paoli. ma, was captured the loth September off Panama, by the Andes, 'moment frigate, and carried to the island of Farago, which the Andes took possession of on the 10th September. The N. S. de la Merced,Seana, from Malaga to Hevannah, has been taken by the libertadur, Venezuelan privateer. She landed the crew at Montego Bay, Jamaica, on tbe r/th November, and continued cruising off that port. It was reported on the Stuck Exchange yester day, that it is the of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER to fund seven or tight millions of the Exchequer Bills, and by prevailing on the Bank to hold over the payment of the sum for which he stands pledged, to enable him to go on with the same temporising system as he hair hitherto acted on, fur *mother year, by merely taking IQ millions from the Sitikiug Fund. This, at least, is the ru mour in the money mat ket.—(Evening Paper.) The damage sustained in the River, among the shipping, by the high tide which occur►ed on Mon day, has been very great. At Woolwich, the men of war in coininissiou and ordinary all broke from their moorings; seveial drifted below Galleoes'a Reach. The Ethalion and Germ frigates got aground off the Duck-yard, and at low water remained so. The Fury bomb-vessel was carried some distance down the river. Fortunately no lives are said to be lost, although the alarm sous great, and the persons on board in much danger. The first intimation of the ships being loose, was about four o'clock in the morning: mud it being extremely dark, the confu sion created by such an event is almost inde scribable.
