'heard than what fen from the Lord Chancellor, on a case -of this kind. Ile would, describe the occasion. A factor had snails an extravagant charge on the estate of an infant. The Eourt of Sessions iii Scotland sustained, as it was called,. this eatiarge, and sotureof the Judges had thrown out remarks, that a hilth degrell of hospitality was necessary—that this furnished the helm which united the different classes of society, and thus hid iodinated that in their judgment eating and drinking *ere necessary to keep up the connection as had been formed when min was in a rud state in e the origin of society. The charge was therefore allowed. 'When the case came before Lord Eldon , who knew nothing of man in a- rude state, but a- great deaf of man in a polished state, the question which he put was this : Pray, di, •'s factor live near any, circuit town ? His idea was, that so eof those who held this doctrine had been connected, with others by thoee ties which, in their judgment, finned the proper links ftir holding society togs-'' steer, and at once disallowed the charge. lie argued against the i appointment of en intermediate Court of Appeals, which, theugh formed of persoas of the highest character, such as the , • Lord Adv ate, Air. •k, and Mr. Cranstown, woultilairto Cler give 11:108 on. With respect to the other recoimpendation, I to censidei' whether the'right of appeal tould not be properly •WiLtitirawn altogether from some cases, he was satitied ehitt could never be:acted upon; Lie again. expressed his ipproba. tiara of bind Bill, and was , of opinion , that nothing beyond it Hugh: to' have been done by the other House in the present Set-sion.' No change in, the appellant jurisdiction would be sa tisfactory to Seotland; and he was of opinion that no case had been made Alit which proved that one nun, aided as lerd Eldon now was by the Alaster'of the Rolls end another deputy, would not be found adeqw,te to perform all the duties which at erhient attached to the 'office of'Lord Chenc.ellor. The Al"rc/RN KY-GENERAL said the Leained Gentle men heal made a very amusing speech, which, however, had net much to do with the question before tht Dalt, . Thai quae. tien was simply ehis, Whether 'the SCA*. ' i• Commission till should be read a third time? The real a which hail 4 been made- on the Lord. Chancellor were who .e uncalled for •On this occasion. He preceeded to dnfend the ifeport on whiCh the liettourable and twarned Gentleman had remarked, and evens of opinion that no better means could be suggested for getting rid of the S co t c h App ea l s t h a n that Whi c h had been roposed for preventing their accuinulatien, by endeavour ing to effect reforms in the Courts of Scotland which would make such Appeals unnecessary To 'ell'ect • these reforms was the object of the present Bill, whieh had' the entire op , probation of the Honourable and Learned Gentleman. lie did not mean to sarthut the plan was not peen to some ob jection, but they had only a choice of diffiettlties hef6l'o them, and in his opinion the better course had beet' preferred. . The Learned Gentleman hail treated the subject its if the only ,oh eet in View were to relieve the Lord . Chancellor. Such was riot the fact.. It wits deshecl to get rid of the Senteli Appeals, lilt not to spare the Loaf Chancellor. lie had heardspOken of his suffering hie political avocations to interfere wiih his judicial duties. If the Learned Gentlemen would take the trouble to inquire into the Subject, he would find that' no man 1 two had held the office ever gave more time to his judicial duties than had been devon'id by Lord Eldon. Ile agreed that it would be an evil if the Lord Chancellor were hereafter to be regarded` ae a political rather than a judicial character. But of this there was no danger ,from the measure now propoiAl. He denied that there had - been any . improper attempt nutde by rti the Lea to' ;withdraw this subject froiyi the jurisdiction of the Commons. .If a Deputy Speaker were not appeinted the Lord' Chancellor could not give more than three days in the week tie Scotch appeals„ and those had been proved meth'. ficient for th e purpose. Alore than three days lie could not be spared from his own Court without grievous injury to the suitors. If it were wished . that the delays complained of should continue, let the present system continue. But he was of opt nion, that the accumulation of appeals for the time to come would . be in a great 111caitire prevented by the inquiry, now proposed to be instituted. As the. Bill was now before the • House for a thirst reading, ; and as upon that question there was no diKeence of opinion, he should not have troubled the House, Gat for the' remarks of his lion. and Learned Friend: Air. BILOVOILLAT explained. AI r. Secretary CANNING said, that there was only one : point to width he would address a very few•words. That the evil complained of existed there wee no doubt ; and that the Appellant Jurisdiction was the highest and most important tribunal there was also no doubt e but if there was a visible accumulation of arrears, beyond the possibility of reduction by the regular mod e of proceeding, it was equally certain that same remedy must, be adopted. The point to which he meant to confine himself, was the observation of the lion. and ' Learned Gentlanan, that no other opportunity would occur for discussing the proposed alteration. The !louse would be aware that in the chair re for Civil Contingencies, the salaries of tbe °Meets of the linitses of Lord* and Commons were in. eluded. In a dissection 'of one of these estinettes, he found the sallary of the Earl of Shaftesbury. That of the officer to be newly appointed v..ould appear in the sante manner in the ry.itintates of next ' year, and tilinoet the terliest potable op eentunity 'would be thus afforded for disensting the subject, then that vote was proposed. Air. A IIERCRO3IIIY said, that this was the first occasion 4. , ')011 whitil the plan in question could be discussed in that Vouse, and it must be necessarily the last in the present So rtie:l.- Instead, therefore, of complaining of his lion. and Irearnd Friend going 'into the subject now, they had a right to complain that no opportunity had been sooner allowed for diectuising it. It wile a matter of great public importance to <decide whp should be the judge in the last retort, and what eliould be the nature of that tribunal. • His Hon. and Learned • Friend, theAttorney s General, objected to the alltisions which '.hhs Him; and Learned Friend (Mr. Brougham) had made to the Court of Chancery. But what could be more important to tie public, than the proceedings by which their property was disposed of or 'protected P • Ile - knew not whether his 'Hon. Friend, the Member for Lincoln, intended to renew his motion upon this subject in the next Session ; hut he knew that it had 1 oaken such hold on the public mind, that whether lie proceeded or not, the public would proceed, and they would never be sit. tidied until a full inquiry were made into the mate of the busi wiseis in the Court of Chancery. He did not admit the evil coin, pigiined of, to be as gieat as some stated it to be t but lot it be what it would, .he preferred giving relief throujgh the business of Chancery, to removing. the Lord Chancellor from the Appel hint•Jurisdiction in the House of Loran. . • A Message 'from the Lords announced that their Lordships, Lad agraixi to the Customs Duties Bill, and several others. Mr. J. WILLTAAIS said , heenuet express his surprise that they hasinot be:n favoured with. tile opinion of the Right Ii on. Secretary of State for the Horne Department, and particularly as the subject had been so fully dui:timed on his side of the House. With respect to the Bill before the House, he had no objection to it. But why, lie would ask, and he wished he could suggest any fair and satisfactory anima to the inquiry, for what earthly reason had the measure been delayed until thapatisnce of the house was exhausted, and many Members lied left town ? The evil which it intended usMeet was not the , gtowth of a tily, or A week, or a year. It was as well known •in January as in July.. They were, indeed, told by the Bight Ii tin. Foreign Secretary, that the House Would have another opportutsity of disetiasing it; anti this tea*, forsooth, to be when they were called upon to Mote the allowance made to the (ewer about to be created ; and then they should be met, as they always were, with the charge of using pe.rsonal abuse. The anly time when they could oppose the office without incurring this charge was before the ()Meer tease appointed. His lion. Friend had inquired whether it was his intention again to bring forward his 11100011, and - he took thin occasion to reply to the inquiry, to Fly. , notice that he should take the earliest oppor tunity of doing so in the next Session. Mr. Secretary PEEL said he saw something like a smile on the Iron. and Learned aentleman'm countenenc: when he no ticed that he (Mr. Peel) had not taken part in the discussion.— Ile would tell the House why he bad not done so. 111 the first place, he had not heard the two first speeches of the debate ; and besides that; having been in the IlOuse till three o'clock in. the morning debating the InsOlVent Debtors' Bill, hit appetite fdi discussion was not rernarkablyekeern His thirdreivion was, ALAI benthoetitl give the same vote' as .die Horn and Learned theitlinuart ; and, lee they were iill,aoced upon the Rill,; he did not wish ta m ete d ) the harmony that prevailed. Lastly. be considered 'that a 'better opportutitty would'oifer itself for going fully into the qiieetion, when it came benire the Itouse In all4l. *ewe tiesixion 111)9t9 the vote being prOpoSed. The °Ricer wOuld then not be Leo weeks old ; ant he could not conceive a better in of expressing their opinion upon the appoi n t ment . Mr. WETHERBLI e said that a measure of this nature oug_ht to have been brought down at a period when t h e H ouse could have investigated its merits. He did .not • mean to say this in adoption or rejection of the plan ; and the language of all who supported it to the other House only went to this, that it was adopted in a.choice eef difficulties; lie did trot predict that it was to be a 'permanent measure, but only intended to apply to the present emergency. . • Mr. TUNISIAN complained of the manner in which the pa. teottage of the Bar ,was bestowed. Ile considered - it highly improper that such men as his Hon. and Learned Friends, the Alembets for Winclielsea and Lincoln were. not placed - more tieriverel, and it was a veryieriousinconvenieoce to the Northern Circuit, The Bill was then read a third time. and passed. • ' • - SLAVER Y. .

Mr. II HAM took this oortunity of asking a question of tlieltight Hon. fient:.(litfie Wynn), which affbcted the Liberty'of the erDis in India. 'He had been inforixied that Mr. Buck., inghant, fill editor of rlic Cilcutta J:Jurnal,, had been sent to England by order of Mr. Adams, immediately after the depar. ture of the Marquis of Hastings, and without any charge being made against him. He wished to ask the Right Hon. Gentle man whether this statement was correct ? Mr. WYNN said: he had - this morning received accounts front India, from 'which be learned that Mr. Buckingham:had been sent to E»gland.. That measure had, however, no re ference 'to the ciretimstanatfor which thar.gentleinan had been trietl.l2 months agile but was. for a continuance in a line of conduct which the Marquis of Hastings had given him repeated warning►s would cruise his being sent home. Be had not yet read the papers; but he could state,. from.the, generaLopimon, he entertained of the discretion and judgment of Mr. Adam, that be had no doubt the proceeding was fully warranted. . • MALTA. Mr. HUME said, - that in consequence of infOrniatiOn which he had lately receive4he was induced, to bring forward the ,present motion regarding. the Quatantine Laws of Malta. Ily this information he • had received an extract of a letter from - Lord Bathurst, whether it wak:.torrect or not he did not know, whiekstated that his Lordship saw no reason„tbr alter ing the Quarantine Laws of Ahilta. The merchants had re ceived this intelligence with the greatest alarm. It was well know that the -.European. Powers 'bad • formed a Code for •the purpose of preventing the importation of the plague.— . In the year 11113 it found its way to Malta; and, shortly afterwards, a breach of the Quarantine La* took place there, which occasioned the placing of Malta out of the European line. Notividistanding this, Sir Thomas Maitland had been allowed to land, in spite of. the :stypposed danger of infec. Lion, He thought the Commercial Interests of this country at Malta ought ,to, be protected, • especially as Malta had been thought of consequence enough tb- justify our going to war, about In France , the laws were very strict ; the Duchess of Berri in one instance, and the l)uke himself after wards, being obliged to perform .quarantine at Marseilles,' All that the people of Malta desired was, that the rules might be certain, and , might not, if once - made,' be relaxed, for the convenience_ of individuals. lle wished therefore for copies or extracts of 'the correspondence between the Merchants and the Cnial Office on this subject. He complained also of the imposition unit increase of duties on importation at Malta, made .by Sir Thomas , Maitland. Ile moved therefore for " copies of all correapondecce between the Government of Malta. and the Colonial Ofiice,tind the Committee cif Merchants at. Malta, respecting the quarantine regulations at Malta." Mr. W. HORTON opposed the motion. The Committee of Merchants had admitted that, in_ point of • regulation, the Quarantine 'Law was perfeet • In practice he contended it waaltnpartial. The landing of Sir Thomas Maitland was jtis titiablb under the p:culiar circumstances, the plague not having appearal for ten years. All the other Islands of the .Mediterranean had adopted our - Quarantine regulations at Malta. It was a little remarkable that the Merchants some times admitted that the foreign regulations were too lax, and hoped they would not be adopted as a precedent in this coun try; and at others complained of them us being too severe. Mr. Ho see shortly explained ; and, after a few words from • Mr., W. 1101tTON, Mr. II uME withdrew his motion. PENITENTIARY MILLBANK. 11.0141:ORD moved for Extracts from the Minutes of the Supzrintending ComMittee of the Penitentiary at Mill bank; of the 21st of March last, as to the quantity of bread to be given to each prisoner ordered to be confined on bread and Water.

Soon afterwards it was, merely stated that lie had requested an armistice. At length it was said that Morillo had declared himself independent ; that he would neither recognize the Regency of Madrid nor that of Cadiz; and that he had con voked a Junta to consider of the measures to be adopted under these circumstances. In our Paper of the 4th instant we announced, in our priVate correspondence of the 26th June, the entry of Mina into Barcelona. We have since received but ''one letter from our Corre :spondent, whose accuracy is ):sown to us. We are so much the more desirous of receiving cer tain intelligence from as vague reports are in circulation respecting the march of Mina, and the louruals give in this respect but uncertain information. The greater part of them state in effect that he has entered Barcelona, but others add that he hits pushed on. to Tarragona. It is even asserted that previous to entering Turra:. gone, he gained on some pOints trifling ad Van tnges. A report is also current, that in conse.; quence of the union of the troops of Mina with those of General Nanso, a brisk affair took place at Manresa. It will be recollected that our cot-- respondent, in his letter of tlie 28th, stated' that Manresa would doubless be evacuated by our troops. (From, the Mon iteur.)

" Lugo, June 26. 'L 6 The Count of CARTHAGENA." " Inhabitants of the Provinces included in the Dittrict-of the Army—Since the news has been fully confirmed that the Cortes at Seville have appointed a. Regency, depriving the King of his 'authority, without the.case foreseen by the Constitution having occurred, and without any of the forms required by the regu lation and ordinances having been obserVed, I have 'received, and have been successively waited on by deputations from: the chiefs and officers of the 2d and 311 divisions, to declare to me that the troops were determined not to recognize that Regency. The inhabitants have declared themselves to the same efnct, and as I would not allow the army, to be disorganized, and a ferocious anarchy to spread desolation through these provinces, I determined to declare, in a public - and notorious manner, that I do not recognize. the Regency appointed by the Cortes at Seville, because the Constitution has been violated in that ille gal act, and, because I will in no way. be an accomplice in the evils which, according to all appearance, this inconsiderate step will produce. " nut in order pot to act lightly, and to be clinpletely cer tain as, to the state of public opinion with regard .to the affairs of Seville, I this morning assembled all the ecclesiastical, civil, 'and military authorities, and was thus enabled, to convince my self that the population fully participate in the se•nents of the troops, and that a Government which is the result of the most illegal act cannot be recognized. " In consequencel have resolved as follows : " 1 The inhabitants of the provinces included in the district of the 4th - army do not recognize the Regency installed by the Cortes 41 ? Seville on the 11th current. " 2. To maintain order in these provinces, and to protect the persons and property of the inhabitants, I retain the com mand of the army with the same powers I previously possessed. Wishing, besides. to attach to my measures the wisdom which in the existing circumstances is necessary, I have resolved that each provincial deputation, in concert with the superior ecclesi astical, ctiv . , and military authorities now in the capital, shall nomina tit ' ' individual of its body, who shall immediately re pair to ' . ead-quarters, for the purpose of forming with the other met tiers, nominated by the different deputations and 'authorities,.'a Junta of Government to which the examination of difficult aflkirs may be submitted. " 3. This order of things shall subsist until the King and the Nation 'adopt a system of regular Government. " 4. PersOns and property remain under the safeguard of the laws4t4e. authorities, and the armed force. No insult nor the least disorder will be permitted under the pretext of opinion or political Conduct; and whoever may endeavour to excite disorder, shall be punished with all the severiti of the law, as a disturber of public order. "4. The existing laws are maintained in their vigour, 'except those relative to otlences of opinion, which are abolished, because no person shall he prosecuted or disquieted fo r th e opinions be has heretofore held, and henceforth he only will he considered culpable in this respect who shall disturb public order. " Such are the regulations which I think it right to establish' air the basis of Government, during the continuance of this pro. visional state of things. My intentions are pure, and I have no other wish than to preserve, if po:aiible°,•these previnces from invasion—to maintain peace and order in them—and to preserve inviolate the honour of the nation and the army. " As some days must elapse before the individuals who may be nominated by the provincial deputations for the Provisional Government Junta run assemble, I have constituted a junta /id inter's', consisting of the Bishop of this diocese, the Poli ileal Chief of the province, the Marquis de Vellodares, deputy from the province of Vigo, Don Jose Alontero,_deputy for the provinee of Corunna , and Don Francisco-Anthems Alvares, tlepirty for this province. • . "Inhabitants of these provinces I—lf you wish to give to I:urope a noble example, by chewing that you have no need of Foreign troops to maintain public order ; and defend the na tional honour—if you wish to preserve peace, and the inviola bility of your persons and properties, do not allow yotirselves to be led astray by your passions; obey the laws and the voice of the authorities, who only •clesire order and the oblivion of resentments and injuries. ,You will then reap in abundance the fruits of your wisdom, without experiencing the incalcu ' hide evils which oppress the other provinces. " The Count of CARTHAGENA. " Mali-quarters, Lugo, June 20." On the 29th of last month the Commissioner of the King of Fritnee, 111. de Martignuc, addres3ed a Note to the Regency in these terms s-- " In the late wars between France and Spain the fate of battles successively, placed in the power of the French army 48 stand ards belonging to the Spenish army., These standards, gained by suceasful courage from disappointed valour, were removed to Paris, and have remained there as precious pledges' of the triumphs which most honoured Our arms. , 4 'the King of France, now united with the brave and ge nerous Spanish people, hi wishes and in efforts for the deliver .ttnee of their Xing, wishes to efface even the recollection of the enmities which have heretofore divided the two nations.— Ile has caused to be removed from our vaulted roof's those mo numents of glory and of discord, and has sent them to the Prince Pacificator, in order that they may be restored to your, King. • • 16 A wa i t i ng the happy day in which the alliance and friendship oitbe two Sovereigns and of the two nations shall be cemented by that restitution, the Prince is of opinion that this deposit cannot be bette r p laced th a n in the Palace of' the Kings of Spain, and under the guardianship of the Regency of the kingdom. .° " His Royal Ifighneint hat; therefore ordered me to inform your Serene Ilighnesses, that he wishes to deposit in the Pa lace, and to confide to your fidelity, the 48 standards taken in the late wars, the two standards taken from our common ene- My in the present war, anti the keys of the city of Valencia, formerly de,livered to a French warrior.

In Tnt: Sus of the '24th ult. in announcing that the Cortes had been obliged to employ force for the removal of the King of SPAIN to Cadiz, we expressed our apprehension that so flagrant a proof of the fact that the KING was in a state of captivity could scarcely fail to weaken the Con stitutional Cause. On the first receipt of the intelligence that FEUDINAND had been rein. vested with the functions of Royalty, imme, dintely on his arrival within the Isle of Leon, we were equally prompt in expressing our hope (see T;IE SUN of the -7th instant), that the Satisfactory proof which the Cortes thus gave by its 'conduct that it contemplated no ulterior measures against the KING, would probably have the effect of 're-assuring the confidence of t all who might have began to fear that the Cortes had abandoned that course of dignified moderation in whiciv its proceedings had hitherto been conducted. Except that the temporary de position of the litF.G was followed by thesuspension of diplomatic intercourse with Sir Wit.'A'CounT, an the., otkter Ambassadors whet had accompanied' the Spanish Court to Seville, the apprehensions or injury to the Constitutional Government, from the dangeroui, though unavoidable, proceeding ,which it had 'adopted against the KING, had begun to subside. In. our own opinion, as we have,tOready stated, the promptitude with which he was restored to the exercise of,the Royal funs• Lions was not only calbulated to remedy any tnischievonS effects which the 'previous proceed ing might have produced upon the feelings and prejudices of the Spanish nation, but even to, induce the Ambassador of this country to re sume his official' attendance at th'e Court of FEB. ntsAxn: We have now, however, the.painful fluty of referring our Readers to the Procla mation's of General Montra,o, in which. he , declares, for Lis army, and for the inha bitants of time district under his military com mand, that he does " not recognize the Regency appointed by the Cortes at Seville; because the Constitution has been violated in that illegal act," and because he " Will iu no way be an accomplice in the evils which, according to all appearance, this inconsiderate step will produge."—A though these Proclamations are dated the 20th June, nine ,lugs after the KING'S restoration to the exercise of the Executive Power, yet it is possible, front the state of the communications, that the intelligence of the. K INm ig restoration might not have reached MO r.mto when they were. issued ; and there is, therefore, still a probability of his having re newed hi - s allegiance ,to the Government of the.
