CHAIRMAN, in proposing tt Tile ',ternary of his late Royal Highness Ike Duke of Kent,' could not help on this °fear' reminding them that this day was the anniversary of the mar riage of his late lamented and illustrious relative. who took so deep an interest in the prosperity of Deis and every other Institution. which had for its Aire' the improvement of the human species. lie trusted that his beloved relative was now enjoyisog the fruits of that life which he had so zealously de voted to the public ; that was the consolation now enjoyed by those who had the happiness of knowing his many virtues, and the ardent desire he invaria bly ft It to do good, by his !personal efforts as well by hi. purse. The Royal Chairmau seemed deeply affected while he proposed this tribute to tire memory of the late Duke of Kent, a feeling of affection in which the whole company warmly participated. The memory of his late Royal High-' loss was then drunk by the company standing, and in solemn silence. flits Grace the Duke of Noarotz then rose and gave.— “ The health of their Royal Chairman—the able and zeal. vas advocate of Civil and Religions Liberty This toast was drank with gre■t enthusiasm. His ROYAL HIGHNEM, in returaiug thanks, said. he claimed with honest pride the name of being the friend of civil and religious liberty—of being the advocate of sentiments, without a full sense sit the value of which, no country could he either free or happy.—/Applause.)—That Englishmen. who were themselves free, should feel ►uch senti ments in the 19th century was not to be wondered id. indeed they had been the sentiments in what were called barbarous times, of those Catholic indi viduals who were remarkable for the determined spirit they evinced in resisting the attempts to eate blrslr,'►u arbitrary and foreign power amongst them. llfeedg shelved the spirit with which they resisted foreigu tyranny, and he who seas ignorant of that, eiesrtved a name which he would not now make use cf. The progress of sciroce had abed a new light upon the principles of social ijosti tut ions, and he had no doubt those principles of civil and religious liberty would ultimately triumph—nay, he would say, ►hall' triumph.—( Loud applause.)—By such principles he would ever be prepared to stand or fell, alike indifferent to the frowns of power or the influence of favour. The more the questions in volved in the principles to which he alluded were discussed, the more triumphant must he their suc cess.; he would always he fouud their steady ,and z•nluus advocate, aniseed hl• power or uninfluenced by popularity.—( Loud applause ) The ROYAL CHAIRMAN concluded by proposing the health' of the Duke of Norfolk, and the rest of the Catholic Nobility—which was drunk with loud applause.

The Earl of Shrewsbury's health was drunk with great applause. 'rhe interesting and affecting procession of the children was then witnessed by the company. It caseieisted of a large number of children of both sexes, whose clean and cheerful appearance denoted the comfort and advantage they derived from the • Charity. A boy and • girl were selecteel fr.. the throng, ea particularly entitled to rustics for their proti. Cleticy. They were introdured to the company in mu inipvesuive addrewt by the Kt-v.

Mr. RULER then made an ring nem al/wort° the, company, in enforcing upon their at. ent ion the great merits of this Charity. In the course of his address he paid a deserved tribute to the high ' thoracicr of the Catholic Nobility. and also to that of the Earl of Dolionglimore. who had so' long • hen; the powerful advocate of the Catholic claims. The iIOVAL CHAIRMAN then proposed— ' The habits of the Baste of Doorrambaroce end Grey, aid the ether dietiogoiebed Peers ober hove ativoested tie tease of Civil sod Lhigieas libert i, stile House of Lords."

The Noble Earl then took an animated review of the efforts made in the progress of the Catholic cease, in the coarse of which he pointed out the meritorious and becoming conduct of the Catholics, and alluded in fervent terms to the cheering prospect which that great question now had of final success. His Lordship was loudly applauded throughout his impressive. address. The ROYAL CHAIRMAN next proposed— " The heals be of Earl Nugent, Mr. Grams, and Ilse other Advocates of I :ivil and Religious Liberty in the COlOll.OOll !louse of Peel santent."—This toast was drunk with loud applause.

Their cause was ate to which he was in heart and soul at tached.—(44pp/ouse.)7-Cold indeed must be that heart which was insensible to the mese they had just witnessed, and who did not appreciate the be nevolence of the individuals with whom this Charity originated. The name of Mr. Grattan, coupled as it was in their toast, was nue which h- venerated— it was • name that would long live is the annals of his country—f Cheerrl—a name which was syno. nimous with every thing that partook of honour, virtue, and good—(Cheerrk-.a name that ou the page of history would be ecrolled, among those great characters who were immortalized for their patriotism sad worth.—(Cheers.)—God grant that the augury of the usemorsble patriot is not about to be fulfilled, and that he is not now, as he pre dicted, on the eve of spending his last breath for his country !--(Hear, hese, hear.)—God grant that be shall yet live to see the triumph of the great cause of which he hiss been so splendid an advocate, sad to enjoy the proud consciousness of having ormtributed so largely to its accomplish ment !—()meat app/sass)—With respect to him self, he had, ever since he was capable of having a feeling or forming an opinion, been the warm well. wisher of their cause—it was one which deserved the support of every man who loved justice, who loved Eugland.—(Hear, hear, hear.)—The Ca tholics had an absolute right to the privileges they sought, and would ere long. he trusted, be put in full possession of them. No Govern ment had a right to disqualify six millions of their people without a cause. This persecution for religion's sake had indeed lasted long, hut it was Leo mouttrous a notion to think that it would much longer continue in the present stale of th e intelligence of the country. The disquatilicatioits imposed iu this manner by law, disgraced not those upon whom they were inflicted. hut those-by whom they were imposed—and were he a Catholic, in.

LONDON, TUESDAY, MAY so, ism The Committee appointed by the House of Lords to inquire into the most effectual means of extending and promoting the foreign trade of this country, assembled on Saturday morning, notwith. standing the adjournment of the House. It must prove extremely satisfactory for the Members of the Committee, in pursuing the great labour with which they are intrusted, that they should not only be fully apprised of the general principles of fo reign commerce entertained by the Ministers and the chief Members of the Opposition, but that agreeing in those principle• in the abstract, their inquiry must be directed solely to the means of giving so much extension to them as the existing circumstances of the country will admit. They are freed from the ungrateful task of disputing upon thestantimil opinions, and will have to apply themselves exclusively to objects of pm:licit, and, if possible, of immediate utility. It seemed, however, to be generally admitted in the House of Lords, that very little Wispy immediate relief to the distresses of the country could be derived from this Committee; but we must confess ourselves to be very sanguine in the_hopes we entertain of the ultimate advan tages that are likely to flow from the inquiry. Existing systems, whatever they may be, cannot with impunity be suddenly altered ; but the debate of Friday night, followed by the appointment of this Committee, seems to open a new era in our commercial system, for never before were the en lightened principles of a free trade so unequivo cally admitted by the Ministers of the Crown as they were onahat occasion by the Earl or LIVER POOL, and from the moment of so public and un. reserved • concession, they must insensibly begin to gain upon the subsisting practice, while the in. quiry now instituted will point out the paths by wbicb they can advance with the least possibility of endangering subsisting interests. The first duty of the Committee, however, will be, to discover and expose the thousand minute instasces of vexatious interference with the mer chants and traders which at present embarrass cosi same, annoy individuals, and undoubtedly injure the revenue. These will be found chiefly in the minor regulations of • custom houses, and which depend upon no principle but that of putting mosey into the pockets of the dicers and clerks of ►hose establishments. The instance of vexatious IMMINIKNI WWI merchants. mentioned by the .11firquiir of LAINDOWS, in preventing ships from slltilise from MI ilea to another on the some line ; 4 coast. for the 'squire of otos gan assorted 4rgo, i• also well worthy of consideration. The istsksoilsret of such • regulation iv to harms the lipirschants, limit their enterprise. reduce their pro. Slits, anti prevent them from taking advantage r.f 'ortunate circumstance., iu which expedition and aims could ensure success.

The British and American may both sail from the river Themes together, and arrive at the same time in the harbour of Valpersiso, where both may, by the sale of mer chandise, provide silver fur the Indian market.-- But here their equality ceases. The British mer chant cannot proceed with a cargo to the asst, he must return to England for his qualification, while his more fortunate American competitor can with. out opposition proceed on his voyage with an as. sorted cargo, take advantage of early markets, and having disposed of In. merchandise may prepare to return for more, while the British merchant, no longer his competitor, is striving amidst a thousand impediments of office ter follow his track at a long jittery.). To the trade of the great Indian Archipelago the Marquis of I.4insnowe very forcibly directed the attention of Parliament, as offering en immense source of profit to ti je country, but from which British industry and enterprise are at present almost prohibited by the perverse nature of our commer cial regulations. It is undoubtedly aurot..l..it pro• coking that all the advantages of the eastern trade, eves' of that per of it which is not covered by the charter of the East India Company, are ihdi• rectly denied to British subjects, in consequence of the iiijudicious restrictions imposed by the Legisla ture, while they are granted freely and without any control to Americans and other foreign mer chants. Much present good might be effected solely by relator/in; such restrictions, without in fringing the chartered rights of any company, or inierfrring with any principle upon which the inte rests of any close of the community may appear, however erroneously, to depend. The Paris Papers of Friday last have arrived at our Office. They contain, under the head of Madrid,' several decrees issued by the King of SPAIN, one of which commands that the profes sion of monastic vows should be suspended uutil the meeting of the new Cortes; and religious houses are also prohibited from alienating their property. This is avowedly for the purpose of arresting the effects of the late war upon the po., inflation of Spain, and that monasteries should fulfil their real object, that of being the asylum only of virtue. The Coustitarcional Madrid Pa per, noticing this decree, so far as it regards the prohibition of alienation, remark•, that the ecclesiastical property in Spain amounts to the enormous st►m of 18,000 millions of reals, or about *02,833,333i. sterling ! It is probably in contem plation to divert some of this wealth to the more useful purpose of rescuing the nation from its pre sent embarrassments. In the mean time the Kano has opened a loan for 40 millions of reals, divided into 3,000 shares, and payable in 1821. Another decree relates to the 61) Deputies, who, in 1814, protested against the constitution. With regard to these Deputies the KIN°, with the advice of the Junta, has ordered, that the Civil Governors in concurrence with the Constitutional Alcadn of those places where these Deputies now reside, shall assign them such monasteries or convents as they may think proper, for their residence until the meeting of the Cortes, with whom ~lone rests the right of punishing such Deputies as shall conduct themselves iseProperly during the coutinusuce of their functions. If this be not tyranny it is very like it ; and even by the very terms of the decree which commands the imprisonment of these men, it is evident that the Junta have caused the KING, who is a mere puppet iu their hands, to usurp the rights that b.long exclusively to the Cortes. The French Five per Cents. are 74 1. 40 c.— Batik Stock, 1,515 f. A Flanders Mail has arrived, with Papers from Broseels to the rth instant. They contain an account of the execution of SAND, for the murder of KOTZEBUE. A great number of Students from Heidelberg, who purposed attending at the execu tion. did not arrive until after the fatal blow was struck, and the head was held up to the view of the spectators. Several of them, however, steeped their handkerchiefs in his blood. Sand wore, on the scaffold, the ancient costume of Germany. We have received a series of New York Papers from the 10th to the 23d of April. They •re chiefly occupied with election intelligence. The general yoke appears to be in favour of the re election of Mr. MONROE to the office of President. The report of the Committee of Ways and Means had been published, end upon which the National Latellegencer remarks as follows :- 6 $ It is, as we have already said. a document, the main object of which, the enforcement of the expediency of retrenchment, and of a just economy in the public expenditure, not inconsistent with important natiomsl objects, will meet' with general approbation. " The necessity of a rigid attention to the ex penditures of the Government is the more oppa rent, at this moment, from a certainty that there will be a deficiency of the revenue for several years, which must he supplied by a reduction of the amount of the sinking fund, by loans, or by tinsel tasation. " This naturally leads the mind to the qiiestienc Wore Congress. which may edict the revenue► We do not pi think the revision of the tariff will ~ 01.1 Mi • • be accomplished at the present Session; we fray there will be no I+ decision on it, bet that it will be postponed to tke next Session. We soy we fear it—and we do so frdm the conviction that it is more important that the tariff of duties should he now settled and hereafter shwie, than it should be either of greater or less among*. " It is the uncertaintycarising from variable laws, aid the resulting impossibility or calculatin g with soy precision the result of miereontile adVen tures, that deadens commerce, sail neenlyses.the enterprise of our merchants. We hope that, since the proposition is entertained, it may bodrestled at the present Session." It appears frnie the detailed statement* 9f this report, that is Om .iant year the receipis wiShe Treasury were 44.814,419 dollar, , mad sitiet s 4i,. diture 44,044.568. leaving a balanced 0 ,,e come, of 767,1!‘51 dollars. In the* 19'• however, it was estimated there would be a defi ciency of revenue, amounting to 3,773,494 dollars, which might be reduced to 1,48.5,001. by the ap plication of the balance of 14488.497 dollars, re maining unexpended of the sinking fund. Cut ate ..,ommittee. n. secommenoing the application of this surplus of the sinking fund to the catrent perms of the year, " deprecate a recurrence to a like resort in future years, if the same can. with any propriety. be avoided." The report concludes with some remarks upo n the " extraordinary depression of commerce within the last three years. the stagnation of our mitiga tion, the depreciation in the value of oua assiterty. and the corresponding depreciation in the slibitt elf property of every discription." It then recent mends rigid economy in all branches of the public expenditure, as imperiously required by the at•oi , e condition of the country. It was confidently reported in the United Stem that General VIVIN had declared he had full sower. to cede the Florida., and that only sonic pietas of minor importance had to be arranged previously to the public declaration of the cession. Congress was expected to adjourn aboutthe 31 May. The new tariff, imposing a higher duty on imports. it was supposed, would not be brought forward.
