MIRE SUBSCRIBERS to the above CON CENTS arc respectfully informed, that their TICKETS are now ready for delirery at the ROYAL HARMONIC INSTITUTION, ARGYLL ROOMS; and they are most particularly requested to take them out on or before FRI , PAY, the 21st Instant. PAR is, FEB. IQ.—A t lialf-pa4 eight o'clock yesterday- evening, the Members of the Bureau of the Chamber of Deputies were presented to the King by the Ministor of the interior. The President presented to his Majesty the following Speech our enemies, to congtiet them; 31 a to the fri=ds of order and 'fidcli.y, to cacourago them by thL-ir " Heaven will vouchsafe to, protect your efforts; aril nay son, after having led you to „.lory, will have the h a ppi ness o f soon LtiuLling you back to the foot of the paternal Throne of . our qtl Kin te g l :i r ' al Quesada has been received in private audience by. her Royal ifiehness the Duchess de Berri.—((luotidienne.) curing the extraordinary service. Such . ate th e nn t o l at a t lipera , tions which appear best calculated to support the Mt-lac:obit charges imposed upon by events, without utereasingthefiub. lie burdens, and without weakenin g p u bli c credit. Tlie.disput. able points of the propoied.system Were, thesufficiency of the ordinary resource.s of 1823, with respect to the credits opened for that year; the estimate of the surplus tranaferred to 18t?,1 as realized in 1822 t and the creation of ftwr nlilliottw Of"retttei to complete the resourcea by which it is prposed, to eyeet the 100,00,00 of extraordinary expenses anticipated fOr 11123. The . Minister made a variety. of observations to obviate the ol.tjections which might be made under these three heads.-- In discussing the third, he said--." I most obserr.!, that we can obtain no valuation mo re p ro b a bl e ti;an' that which art' scs from the known state of the case nearest the epoch'for which we are compelled to abandon our'n:ice , to the chances of calculation. It is accdrding to this basis that the Cham ber has always proceeded in fixing the prol):Ible receipts of a future period. It appears to' me to be the widest allow ance under the unfavourable circumstances, the duration of Which the King has stated he will exert all his endpeso:nth; to lindt, to suppose that they may arrest during two ru the rising and gradual progression of the consunmlanon of the sys. tern, and (tithe produce of the imposts which is its conaequenca. Know our resources better gentlemen. After having executed all Our etlhrts to avoid the war, do not, gentletr.ert, exaggerate the disagreeable consequences, if it should take place. The prosperity of Prance moat suffer some relaxation in its progress in consequence of existing circumstances; but it will not go backward. The deputies, I think, may without rashness participate in our conhdence. As to the last head, the ope ration was proposed ae the consequence of a system of finance in which France had engaged for several years past. In this . manner the expenses of the 'occupation, and the p a ym ent o f the arrears hail been covered by loans. Ity this means, also, provision must in future be mule for the wars. in which the condition of an independent state ' ..of a state havin g p re _ ponderance in Eur o pe, will compel France to rake part, bow. ; ever wise, however moderate may be the paternal and ttpright views of her Kings." The :Minister then stated tint necessity of maintaining the public credit by the .regular payment of the interest of the debt, and the 'maintenance -of a sinking fund.... The sinking fund had already reduced .28 millions of renter, and will this year employ 88 milliona in centinuitg its purer chases. lie concluded by submitting to the Chamber three law projects, containing a variety of artielesconfortnable to the details of his speech. The object of the last is to give dotations to the Chamber of Peers and Deputies. GEORGE NICKS, Secretary, 83, Portland-street. nere has been circulated to-day a somewhat different version of the Speech which M. de lt le made, unpreparedly, yesterday, in the secret committee, from that which we gate upon the authority of general conversation. It appears that big Vxcelleney, in giving an account of the conduct which the Ministry believed itself bound to pursue; with respect to Spain, did indeed give it to be understood that they bad furnished pe cuniary assistance to the bands of the Faith ; but be said,,with great. Teason,,.that „lint' nisi been considered consistent with the dignity of the Go vernment openly to encourage hostilities on the frontiers of a country in which we had an Am bassador.

From the length of time witness has known his Lordship, and recalling his conduct during the whole of that time, he did not consider that he had at any period of a long course of years been of sound mind.-- Cross-examined by Mr. WILLIAM—Had always thought • Lord Portsmouth unsound in his mind ; never expressed an opinion to the contrary. By a Jtr non—lied not been in the habit of attending persons of unsound mind professionally. Ann Cole, called by Mr. POWELL—Is the wife of William Cole, of Whitchurch ; has known Lord Portsmouth thirty years ; was out nutting one day ; saw his Lordship ; did not speak to her, nor she to him ; his Lordship did not give her a .farthing, more nor less ; has seen him since ; on one occasion his Lordship asked her to feel his pulse ; did so ; told him he was very poorly, and wanted letting blood ; he asked witness to bleed him -; said she could not ; he then wive her 35., and told her to go, having first asked her 'to call on him the next day; (lid so the next day at one o'clock, and saw his Lordship at the gate of a copse ; felt his pulse again ; he:repeleted his request for her to bleed him ; refused; he gave her 2s. 6d. ; saw him another day ; asked her to fetch him a servant! she asked the name of the servant ; said he did not know ; witnesss replied then that she did not know who to go for ; his Lordship then gave her a seven shilling bit ; he never Allowed her any tiling' excepting a lancet t was in'eorupany with four other women one day, when hill Lordship came up and made them put their hands is their pockets and walk before him ; his Lordship never at. tempted to take any liberties with witness ; not the least in the world. (Witness was about 70 years of age.) Sarah Adams, examined by Mr. WETitratEm...—ltesides at Talton ; has known Lord Portsmouth 20 years ; met his Lorslehifi ape day in a bye-road ; sometimes asked his Lord ship 6, ) , h e was; he gave her something, which she has kept 'ever since ; has it about her now (produced a lancet- in a" red Ak 9 Y,Pcee'erole) ; gave it her about 13 years ago ; the first time time 'Atheist saw his lordship she was in company with Han -.)1_11 Curtis ; he asked her to feel his pulse, which she did , sad !PIA him he , I Y4e.. very Poorly ; asked her to bleed him ; she said sh e could not t he remarked that he had been bled by women 0._iki,44.101)11 ; Witnesarefased to hleed - him, bec a us e it was on a rlattlY Morning ; his Lordship produced a l ancet at t h e time n asked her to bleed him ; had never seen Lord Portsmouth then hisLOrdship on the following Wednesday, about', a quarter of a mile from the place where they met first ; this meeting was by the appointment of his Lordship; again felt his pulse, and told him he was better ; he said no, he was worse, and very giddy in his head; he then asked her what pockets she wore, whether corded or ribbed; she said ribbed; he did not ask to see them ; wanted her to bleed him, but did not ; he shewed her his lancet, and requested her to get a young woman to meet him for the purpose of phlebotomising ; met his Lordship again, wanted to be bled ; made her put her hands in her pockets, bulging !hem out, and walking before him ; did so till he told her to stop; then felt his pulse, and told him he was better ;,he was then very angry, and said he was worse ; told her he had met a nice girl as he was riding through Whitchurch; he thought she could bleed ,him, and wished witness to bring her to him, but could not tell where she. lived he gave her a seven shilling bit, and told her not ,to go nutting, or he should be very angry. Shortly after this his Lordship went to London ; on his return met him again ; had tied her arm up in a handkerchief, because she ktievilie would ask her to bleed him •s; told him she had the rheumatism ; he said he was very sorry ; made her put her hands in her pockets and walk before him. ,Mr. Justice Beat was then called and examined.—Was re lated to the Grandey family. After the death of the Dean of Exeter, became a trustee to the estate of the Earl of Ports mouth. About this time his Lordship recommended Mr. Coombe as a medical man, and qualified in other respects to at tend upon his Lordship. Was decidedly of opinion that tkie Noble Earl required some person, to take care of him. After the death of the late Countess the Earl came to town. There was a meeting of the Trustees about the state of Lord Ports mouth's mind, at least it was frequently the subject of conver sation between Lord Grandy and himself. Witness never ceased to think that it was necessary for some person to attend Lord P. Remembered a conversation with Mr. Hanson. On the Friday before his Lordship's marriage with Mas Hanson, Lord I'. dined with him. No conversation then Passed relative to the .Earl's earnest desire for matrimony. Heard that such things had been mentioned .by him. Could not re collect any instance of it. Had a conversation with Mr. Han son respcting the state of Lord Portsmouth's mind on the Friday preceding the makriage. Had many opportunities of observing the conduct of Lord Portsmouth. Believed him to be utterly incapable of managing any important affairs. In point of capacity he was not superior to a boy of 8 or 9 years of age. When treated civilly he returned it like a boy. When treated with whit he conceived to be harshness he sulked and cried like a child. At table and in general intercourse he con ducted himself like a gentleman. On his cross-examination, Mr. Justice BEST stated, thit Lord P. had voted in the House of Lords on the Queen's trial, and had signed a deed appointing trustees to his estate previous to his first marriage. Lord P. appeared to have a tense Of religion. Charles Lee was next examined—Was a servant in the fa. mily of Lord. P. since 1800. The house affairs were always managed by Lady Portsmouth. Lord P. was never allowed to meddle with thoso affairs, but wasallowed money. John Harriston examined by Mr. BROUGHAM—Had been 17 years in the service of Lord P. ; had left his service 13 years ; had known his Lordship 30 years. A coachman named George had broken his leg, and was lying on his bed ; witness was at. tending him ; Lord P. come into the room, and told George to get up and go to wotk. George said he could not get up.-- Lord Portsmouth told him he should get up. George re. peated that he could not. His Lordship then threw himself across the legs of George, and witness heard the bone crack. George cried out, and witness told his Lordship that he had broken Ceorg e 's leg again. Ills Lord• ship replied that he did not care for that. Witness with great difficulty dragged his Lordship from off the bed, and carried him out of the room, and told him that he had ruined the man. His Lordship replied, " I don't care for that." • Witness, at the request of the coachman, gave him a broom handle to de fend himself with. On one occasion his Lordship stood at the porch of the church, and in a great passion told witness that he was a d---d rascal, and should not enter. The Rev. Chas. 31'Carthy, formerly Rector of Whitchurch, examined—Had visited Lord P. up to the time of the late Lady Portsmouth's death. Lord P. was of a very imbecile mind. On three occasions at funerals, where witness had officiated, Lord P. had appeared as a mourner amongst persons who were far below his rank, and he appeared with a black cloak over his clothes, which were not black. His Lordship came into the church-yard with the other mourners, and always conducted himself with propriety on such occasions. Cross-examined by Serjeant PEl.l.—Often dined at Lord Portsmouth's house, where his Lordship always conducted him. self with great propriety, and was patticulurly attentive and polite to ladies. Never saw any thing in the conduct of Lord Portsmouth, either at table or elsewhere, which would have induced witness to discontinue his visits at the house. The conversation of Lord Portsmouth was vague and trifling like that of a boy. What was his behaviour at Church P—He was very attentive, and apparently devout, and sometimes after the sermon he would come up to me, and addressing me by my Christian name, would say to me, " Charles, we have had a long sermon this morning; we must have shorter ones."—( Laughter.) s e rje a nt pELL—Perhaps his Lordship was not wrong in his judgment in that particular ? 'Witness—Why, men will make long sermons as well as long speeches sometimes..—(Laughter.) Jahn Potticary, a butcher at Whitchurch, was next called— Lord Portsmouth was very fond of going into witness's slaughter.house and knocking down the beasts. If he knocked down a bullock, he would say, " It serves it right, the vicious toad—(Laughter)." Joseph,liead examined—Was hired by the late Lady Ports. mouth in 1806 or 6, and directed to obey, 'or not obey as lie pleased, Lord Portsmoth. IVitness often refused td obey his Lordship's commands, which were frequently very abiurd.—. Lord Portsmouth would frequently order witness to blow out the candles and leave himself in the.dark, and would often lock out the servants in the rain to get themselves wet ; would often prescribe doses ofjalap, mustard, and pepper, and °blip the servants to take them. At one time he mixed up a tipe, of this kind in beer, and held a servant until he drank it; at another time he prescribed six ounces of jalafi to each of the servants, increased the p rescr i pt i on to tively.! °nom, and afterwards ordered the dose to be repested. Wit. ness did not choose to obey Orders of Oa- kind ; heard Lord Portsmottth say that he lost his best_friend when lie lost hi* late counteed, and that his present Countess treated him like a deg. Adjourned at *quarter past five. , " Siar—lt is with sentiments always of the most profound gratitude and love that your faithful subjects, the Deputies of the Departmente, approach to depose at the faot of the throne the homage of their respect. " The necessity for the regular vote of the taxes med.; it our duty promptly to 'answer the surnmone. The approbation of the King and the public welfare are our recompense. " Under a firm and paternal Government, the internal situa tion of the kingdom could not fail of ameliorating., The wis dom and courage of the illagLetretee, theloyalty of Juries, AV ose consciences nothing has intimidated, have defeated conspiracies wherever formed, and justice has destroyed the hopes of impu nity entertained by the factious. "-Sire, it was reserved to the Most Chtistlan King to raise our temples from their ruins. Thanks to your pious solicitude, religion daily reassumes that salutary influence which inspires men with more - attachment to their duties —more respect for the laws of their country. - The conventions recently concluded,by your Majesty with the Holy See have restored to your Churches their former Pastors. Soon will labour and indigence find, throughout even the Provinces, the consolation and relief of which they have been' so long deprived. " The Ordinances of your Majesty, Sire, have prepared new means of economy and fixed order in the public accounts.— Henceforth France will be better 'lnformed of the legal appro priation of the public foods. She already enjoys the fruits of the progressive improvements of the Administration ; and an excess of 40 millions above the credits opened in 1.922 attests the prosperous state of our finances. " Yes, Sire, it Is by the return to religion, tillegitimacy, and to order, that this tine France, enjoying at length real liberty, chews to Europe how public calarnaties may be red eeme d . " Why should the example . of oar present prosperity and the lessons of our past misfortunes be lost upon a neighbouring State whose independence we do not question ? But can we see without alarm the discords which devour her, and abandon our selves to the dangers with which we are menaced by the cola mities which afflict her ? "Destined by Providence to close. the abyse of revolutions, your Majesty, in his paternal solicitude, has made every effort to guarantee your subjects, and to save Spain h erse lf from the disastrous effects of the rebellion Of a band of perjured soldiers. A blind infatuation has rejected the counsel of the chief of the august family of the Bourbons. " Sire, we are PrenchMene no sacrifices will be con s id ere d too great by your subjects to defend the dignity of your Crown the honour an d security of France. It is to your Majesty, Sire, that it belongs to deliberati; it is for us to concur, by all our effort s , i n t h e no bl e enterprise Of suppressing anarchy, to recogni se peace alone, to restore to liberty a Prince of your blood, to Insure the repose of Spain, to consolidate that of France, to deliver from the yoke of oppression • a magnaiihnous people, who assisted us to burst our own fetters, and who can only receive from their legitiMate Sovereign insti tutions conformable to their views and manners. " Sire, your courageous and faithful army, which knew how to tonteinn the dastardly insinuations of revolt, goes forth with ardour. Under the banner of the Lily, at the voice of your Majesty, and l et t by a P r i nce t h at your heart and your eubjeets delight in calling your son, this noble standard will only pro. claim enemies to the factious. " We return thanks to your Majesty for the precautions which you have taken to protect our Maritime Commerce. Your prescient wisdom watches over all our interests, and the naval forces of your ISlajesty, which have so often afibrdedthnely aid to humanity, will maintain with equal devotion the . honour of the French flag. " Sire, your faithful subjects, the Deputies of the Depart ments, deeply affected by your Royal promises, will repeat them to your peopl e .

I shall . be faithful to the came ments which I have contracted ; but whatever may happen, it is from my intimate union with the legislative Chambers that will result the internal prosperity and external consideration of Prance." The Count de Lagarde arrived yesterday morning in Paris. The speechesOf Lord Liverpool, Mr. Brougham, and of all the Members who spc,!ce in the Eng lish Parliament, have been translated into Spa nish, and sent to Madrid.--(Toile.) We'are assured that in eight days there will not be at Toulouse a single officer, nor even a soldier, of the Army of the 'Faith. The prep rations which regard to clothes and provisions of arl kinds are nearly finished, and nothing can retard the immediate entrance into Spain, or at least the establishment upon its extreme frontier, of the Regency and of the troops whose opera tions it will have tu.direct.---(lbid.) A tc2 o'clock six battalions of the Royal Guard, a battalion of field artillery, and a squadron of light artillery, were marshalled in battle array in the Court of the Tuileries, and on the Place du Carrousel. Marshal Duke de Ragusa, Major- General de. Service, began to inspect ; home. diately afterwards their Royal Itighnesses Mon. sieur and the Duke d'Angouleme, attended by Generals Bordesoult, Bordemont, and a consi derable Staff composed of General Officers of different regiments, passed in front of each hat. talion, amidst the long-repeated acclamations of an imm ense multitude who thronod all the ave. titles of the Castle. All these battalions, in effective strength, extended the whole length of the Carrousel, and presented, by their noble countenance and brilliant equipment, an impobing spectacle. After this review, the troops defiled before the Princes and Princesses, who had taken their pa sition at th e fo o t of the grand staircace. The artillery executed various manoeuvres whilst mar tial mus i c was play ing. His Royal Highness' Monsiiur advanced amidst the troops, and with that chivalric accent which distinguishes him, spoke of honour and fidelity, and was heard by even , - soldier present. observations which his The follo w i ng are t h e Royal Highness addressed to the Officers of the Itoyhl Guard : " o e , ntleuien--To spent to the Boys} Guard of courage, Acidity, and devotion, would be to "L": 43 Ulm in oackss ho • p agc,„ I congratulate, from the bottom of vox heart, a ton who is dearer to inc than life, upon bent,: destined hy the Eing- 'to the honour of commanding you. he different corps o f the Owl and or the trench army, Ate equally good to present to To-day, at four o'clock in the afternoon, a commissary of police presented himself at the office of the Courier Frungais to seize this day's number of that paper. According to the roga. tory commission of which the commissary was the bearer, this seizure took place in consequence of the account of a secret committee being published without the authority of the Chamber. To judge by this proceeding, the Minister appears to as. similate the rumours which we had stated in a few lines respecting the secret committee yester. day, with they publication of the proceedings of a sitting, a real account of which would have filled three papers such as ours. It is a question upon which the tribunals will have to decide., There does nvt exist an example of similar se verity for such a cause. We could easily name many journals which have not been molested fel speaking of secret committees, although they ex• ceeded the limits to'which we confined ourselves: --(Courier Franc ais .) TIIP, FRENCH BUDGET. CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, Fran. 10. 'I he Minister of Finance presented the Budget. Ile Observed, that as Ministers iu the last Session could only present an outline of the accounts fur 11121, they now brought forward the law project and the' documents necessary for defi nitively adjusting thetn. Ilir Excellency then went into de. tailed ctplanations on the supplemental ijants required by the different Ministerial departments. The total rendered ne cessary hp the settlement of the expellees for 1821 is 12,383,832 f. But the adjustment •of the expences warrante d the reduction of th e credits opened by the law to the amount of 11,08,1152 f., which makes a difference of only 813,91101. be. tWcon the estimated and the real expences„ By the adjust ments which have thus been made, the expences of: ..1821, which were calculated at 822,235,274f, 1 became 1183,054,2441; The receipts of 1821, estilliated at 1389,021,743 f., ' lave,produced an excess of ' -26069,890 f. This increases the resources appropriated fur the service, of 1321 to - - • -81.5,591,435 f. The adjustment of the credits makes the expen diture only 1183,054,23411 , Surplus produce over the expenditure for 1021 32,537,181 f In the account presented to the Chamber in June, 1022, the surplus for 11121 was stated at only ;11,542,404f. which teria transferred to the budget for 11122. The budget of that year Also presented a surplus receipt: beyond , the expenses 11,202,330 f. There was, therefore, a stint left unemployed for 1028 of 10,287,101;E In 1822. the credits. granted, have been exceeded by 25,356,637 f., in consequence of expenses not provided for by the law. The receipts of the same year, however, exceeded the estimates, viz. for registration, 4,806,097 f. ; woods, 275,1195 f. ; customs, 8,045,903 f. ; salt, 955,836 f. ; indirect taxes, 10,823,59 y 1. ; post-office, 700,708 I ; the lottery, 3,325,625 f.; miscellanies, 894 f. ; finally, the negociation of the 12,00J,008f. realized in 1822, has produced 16,493,592 K, which, allowing for 800,909 f. of defalcation on some articles, makes 46,532,1 22f. of excess In the estimated receipts. Thus the adjustment of the budget 'of .1822 presents the following resulta:— Receipts . 958,859,983 Exences - Excess 926,201,102 of the disposabl e rece ip t on I st of JA _ nuary, 1823 . 32,668,801 Which, added to the disposable excess of 1821 10,20,106 Makes the reserve, with which we commence the service of 1823 . - 42,945,907 The circumstances under which these receipts and expences are about to be placed impose the objection of looking for ward to the diminution which had taken place in the former, and the increase which may inevitably arise in the latter..—. The estimates for 1023 have, however, been made on an low a settle, compared with the receipts of 1822, that there is to reason to apprehend that the ordinary wants of the cur. rent public services will not be covered by the receipts thereto appropriated. _ As to extraordinary went*, it it impossible for us to foresee them with precision, as they depend upon events. It would be contrary to the interests of the country to publish beforehand the detail of the armaments to whieh the Government may think fit to devote its attention. We conceive (said the Mini ster) that in such eircmnstances our duty would be to confine ciurseltt.s to asking of the Chamber a supplementary credit o f 100,00(10,0001:, which the Minister of Finance cannot touch except to meet the extniordinary expenees in - the different Mi nisterial deplirtments, in virtue of the Royal Ordinances which, as well es all the supplementary credit's, will be 'submitted to the ratification of the law, with the uccoullts of the services for which they might be required.

'The papers of the I s t con t a i n a proclamat i on by the, Constitutional Ayuntamiento, dated the .30th which announces that the rebels here continuing their retreat through the province of Cuenga, and that the members of that magisterial body, who had heen,assembled in a permanent sitting since the '24th, were about to resume the exercise of their ordinary functions. There are also itt the latest papers, notices addressed to the citizens who had volunteered to defend Madrid or to march against the enemy, naming different places in which they. are desired to deposit the aitne they had received. Great zeal was on this occa sion displayed in defence of the capital, and many wealthy citizens of Madrid even armed themselves and joined the army sent agaieSt i3essiExres. Dis• tinguished officers oll'ered to serve itt the ranks, rather titan to remain unemployed at such a crisis. The proclamation of the . Ayuntamiento to which we have alluded thus describes the pat! Alt: spirit which was manifested by the public : " Corporations of every description, and a countless number of Meritorious citizens, offered themselves to th e A yuntiuniento, in order to be employt2d 'Wherever their services might be useful to the country or their fellowi.citizens: and had there been MIS to supply all that'ashed for them, there Would have been form. , ed, in Madrid alone, an army larger than foreigners have sup 4 posed could be raised in all Spain.

A paper of the 2d inst., entitled the Patrfote Espanol, has published a letter addressed by Bertran de Lis to the Political Chief of Madrid, and containing . a proposition for putting down the Landaburian Society. As the writer of this letter is tin Exaltadu, and has been himself a frequent speaker in the, society, it is curious that such a proposition should come from him ; and the reasons he assigns for making it are not a little remarkable. He expresses his approbation of popular societies in general, but thinks that the violence which prevails in the 'Lundaburian may, at the present crisis, may be injurious to the country: He alleges that there is a negociation going on for a new Ministry, and for other changes in different branches of the public admi. nistration ; and that those changes cannot .be properly made amidst the heat and effervesceirce of which the popular societies are the , cause. . A manifesto of the Royalist Junta of Mequi. nenza against Bessiores is .published by the Madrid papers, shew the diasention which prevails amongst the insurgents.
