LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING. AUGUST 15, 1835. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER brought forward his Budget last night. Financial speeches, abounding, as they must do, with the thorny details of arithmetic, are of necessity dry and uninteresting—almost, in fact, beyond the pale of eloquence. All, therefore, that we ought in reason to expect from a gentleman placed in the situation of Mr. SPRING RICE is a clear, intelligible, and faithful account of the resources of the country, drawn from the experience of the past year, and a statement of the probable amount and proposed appropriation of the national income for the year to come. Assuming this as a fair estimate of the task which devolves upon a Finance Minister, we may say that Mr. S. RICE acquitted himself with a creditable degree of ability. Upon the whole, the caposi: is highly satisfactory. The state of the account at the end of the financial year -sth April, 1835—sheaved a balance of 835,0001. in favour of the country. It is still more gratifying to learn that a con siderable addition has been made to this balance during the last quarter, the surplus, calculating from the sth July, 1834, to sth July, 1835, being 1,205,0001. All this we say is very satisfactory, and we are bound to say, by .no means overstated. We think, indeed, that the Right Hon. Gentleman has proceeded with a very extraordinary degree of caution in his calculations. For instance, in framing his estimate of the productiveness of certain branches of' revenue, which arc .in a rapid state of improvement, he has taken the average of the last three years as the probable rate for the ensuing year, which is the same thing in effect as anticipating a very considerable de cline. Thus in cotton wool, the consumption of that article in 1833 was 284,460,000 lbs. ; in 1834, 297,007,0001bs ; and, in 1835, 320,210,0001b5. Mr. S. RieF. takes the average of the three years, viz., 310,000,000 lbs. as the consumption of the year ending April, 1836. So also with regard to Coffee and Vegetable Oil, the consumption of which latter article increased last s ear from 1,487,000 gallons to 2,077,000 gallons. We may, therefore, safely assume that the actual will exceed the estimated amount of Revenue. We now come to the appropriation of the surplus, and here we arc constrained to say that the Right Hon. Gen tleman's arrangements have greatly disappointed us. The interest due on the West India compensation grant is stated to absorb the greater portion of the 835,0001., leaving lbr the remission of taxes about 200,0001. Now, we assert that the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was bound in honour, as well as good policy, to apply this stun, as far as it would go to the remission of the Stamp Duty on Newspapers. He has given distinct pledges that at least a portion of this impolitic and unpopular tax should be taken off, and now, when a favourable oppor tunity for fulfilling his promises occurs, these promises are forgotten. Such conduct might be expected from a Sir ROGER GLlasLF—i❑ Mr. SPRING RICE it is inexcusable, and will, in all probability, meet with its appropriate reward in the alienation of the public confidence. It is a lame.ex•. ease to sa), as l►e has done, that as the state of the revenue vtould not allow him to take off the whole tax, therefore it • was better to take off no part of it. He might at least have shewn his good will to 'the PLUS, which he has so ften professed to have at heart, and if he did not please every one—if be made no new friends--he would at all rots have lost none of his old ones. The House of Lords aimed anather deadly blow last night at, the Corporation Reform Bill, by agreeing to Lord LYsnm - as-r's amendment to the fifteenth clause, which as originally framed, adopted the principle of equal eligibility to the town-councils, but which, as now amended, altoge ther destroys that principle, by disqualifying, at the very least, five-sixths of the municipal electors. Such is the spirit in which their Lordships legislate for the middle classes ! Such the respect they pay to their earnest and of-trepeated supplications ! It clatters little now what fur ther alterations they make in the Bill, for as respects effi ciency, it is already, to all intents and purposes, a dead letter. It was once liberal, it is now exclusive. It was once tolerant, it is now intolerant. In fact, it is no more the same measure that it was when it entered the aristocratic slaughter-house, than the mutilated corpse is like the entire liVing body. Of course we cannot accept such a miserable abortion. The sub 'stan.ce is ours by right, and we must not put up with the sbado;v as an equivalent. We must insist on our debt 1 1:en;- 4 - paid in full, not by instalments,. .yire trust Ministers will be Ilrm on this point . ; and - tliat the 1 - I'Ouse of Com mons will second them with all their energies. The le we know will, as they have already Shown ; and as they will show, in a .sfill more significant manner, ere another week has elapsed. The Political unions are rot dead, but sleeping ; and we greatly mistake the character of our brother Reformers, if last night's proceedings in the House of Lords do not call them into instant action. Indeed there is no other way left by which we can obtain justice , Their Lordships are not to be reached by argument or supplication. They are petition proof, and to be assailed only by Constitutional agitation. This then must be our club, and when their Lordships see that we wield it with Herculean energy; when they see that we are inflexible , above all, when they see that we are unanimous, then—but not. till then—will they consent to relax their present suffoca ting grasp on the Municipal Reform Bill. As for Mr. HumennEr's proposition, which he put forth yesterday at the Southwark meeting, that we ought to accept the mea sure as the Lords gave it us, and next Session make an effort to get more ;,---sitch a suggestion ought not to be suf fered to weigh one instant with the people, for what is it but a mean compromise between ' justice and injustice—a sort of tacit acknowledgment that we are exacting more than is, at present; , our due ? Now we have either a right to Corporation Reform, - or we have not. If we have not, then let us give way, and say nothing more about the mat ter ; but if we haVe, then let us insist on having it in all its efficiency. To act on any other principle ; to accept one half when the whole is due, and to trust to the Chap ter of Accidents for the remainder, is not only to parade our own vacillation and imbecility, but to betray the cause of justice. pAs we were going to Press, we received a letter from a Correspondent at ~Edinburgh, with a report of the pro ceedings at a Great Public Meeting held in that city on Wednesday, in favour of the Municipal Reform Bill. The Meeting was called by the Lord Provost in compliance with a numerously and respectably signed requisition. It was attended by upwards of twelve hundred gentlemen, the LORD PROVOST in the Chair. Several resolutions in favour of the Bill were proposed and carried unanimously, and a petition prepared, which in the course of a few hours received the signatures of the gentlemen assembled. It was to have been forwarded this day to the LORD ADVO CATE, and through him, for presentation in the House of Lords. We entreat the attention of his MAJESTY'S Government to the subject of the letter of our Dublin Correspondent, inserted in another column, respecting the appointment of a Private Secretary to his Excellency the Loan-LIEUTE NANT of IRELAND. Was Ireland not distracted by poli tical and religious dissensions—were the GovernMent not beset with the most determined enemies, who are prepared to commit any enormity which offers a prospect of destroy ing it, or neutralizing its measures—and were we not per suaded that the existence of the present Government is ne cessary to the preservation of public order and tranquillity throughout the Kingdom, we should not consider ourselves warranted in offering any suggestions to the Earl of MULGRAVE on the appointment of his official Secretary. But our knowledge of the many dangers that threaten the present Ministry, and our zeal in the support of a Cabinet which, we believe, aims only at the promotion of the national welfare, will not permit us to stand upon any ceremony, when it becomes our duty to apprise it of any unforeseen peril. . No Government can stand against a powerful opposition prepared to supersede it, unless it can rely upon the fidelity of its organs and subordinates in every department. What ever document passes through a ptiblic office, must of ne cessity be tinged with the feelings of those who officiate in Hence not only secresy but political bias is absolutely rup ii rbs. - 1 in all who minister to the official duties of a Go vernment.- ;Where this is not the case the Government must be weak, div i de ,l. and distrustful of itself. Where the subordinates hold ito: the same political opinions as the principals, on all L.l(l'ng questions, the senti ments• of the principals will be : . .etrayed not only to their h other that jea enemies, but so misrepresented to eti: lousies and distrusts will arise, which , in the end, will lead either to the dismemberment or the breaking up of the Administration. Now it is notorious that one of the great oversights of the Whigs, in taking office in 1830, was retaining the Tory clerks in all the subordinate departments of the Govern ment. They feared to exasperate the Opposition in both Houses of Parliament, and the consequence was, that the contents of every document which passed through the hands of the clerks were known to the Tories long before they could be officially communicated, to the SOVEREIGN or the country. This gave the Tories powerful advantages of which they still continue to avail themselves. The be trayal of the Government's confidence has enabled them to neutralize the effect of some of the most salutary measures proposed by Ministers ; and what is still more important, to adopt schemes by which others were strangled before they had reached a maturity which would have justified their authors in laying them before the public. With respect to the Colonies matters were still worse—but of this more on a future occasion. In the present state of public feeling in Ireland, it is absolutely necessary for the preservation of the national tranquillity, that all persons employed in Government offices should belong to no faction whatever. That country is justly exasperated against the Orangemen. The Orange faction is the avowed enemy, not only of the Roman Catholic po pulation, but of the Government ; therefore the appoint ment of any gentleman professing such principles, to the Private Secretaryship of the LORD LIEUTENANT, will not only peril the stability of the Goverpmcnt, by the betrayal of its confidence, but cause its liberal professions to be distrusted, and itself to be des pised by the great bulk of the Irish people. Lord WI.- GRAVE cannot be too much on his guard against the insinua tions of the old Orange and Corporation hacks that now throng every corner of the castle. The race of the Sings, the SWANS, and the Pitch-cap BERESFORDS, is not yet extinct in thoirish metropolis. The Castle must be cleared of them before the Irish Government can hope to obtain the confidence of the Irish people. At present the Castle is a den of Anti-Catholic rancour, in which the voice of liberty finds no echo. The great error of all past liberal Administrations—Governments really intending the good of Ireland—consisted in retaining those officials at the Cas tle whom they found there on their accession to office. A false Sympathy was excited in favour of men who were at first regaided as mere machines, but who in a few months never failed to poison the mi►:ds of the highest functionaries against the Catholic inhabitants. This unforturiately needs no illustration. All coramuni cations intended to convey a right impression of the state of public feeling in the country were suppressed before reaching the Lords Lieutenant, and only those forwarded which tended to sanction and promote the views of the faction who virtually domineered over the Government and the country. Our correspondent mention, go name of a Gentleman whom the Orangemen have already been graciously pleased to nominate to the office of Private Secretary to the LORD LIEUTENANT. We know nothing personally of that indivi dual, but the claims of any one so nominated cannot be too scrupulously examined. Our great object is to impress on the Government, that for its own sake and the sake of Ireland, it is bound to get rid of every subordinate that is not prepared to co-operate with it in reforming the Institutions of that country. The same ought to be done here ; but as a necessity equally imperative does not. exist in England as in Ireland—as in this country clerks are not members of Orange Lodges, nor banded together against the extension of civil rights to their fellow-subjects—the Government can afford to make changes so gradually as to occasion the least possible loss to individuals. But in Ire land the evil must be dealt with after quite another fashion. The blow must be struck at once, and so vigorously as to overthrow the whole system. This will give confidence to the people, strength to the Government, and peace to the country. German Papers of the latest dates have been received. They state that the Congress of Sovereigns will meet at Toplitz on the 20th of September.

The funds fell ut Vienna on -the report reaching Cr at capital that the life of Louts PIIILLIPPF. had been at tempted during the celebration of the•fetes of July. I'Ve have received the whole of the Paris Papers of Thursday, together with the Evenins Papers dated yes terday. The following extracts from them comprise all the foreign and domcstc intelligence which has not previously appeared in this Journal : It is said the French Governmentwiil regal M. de Rayneval from Madrid, under the pretext of ill-health, and will leave only a Charge de Affaires there. This step, imitated from the conduct of Louis XVIII., at the time of the revolution, in 1820, would inti mate the disapprobation of Louis Philip of the disorders of which Spain is now the theatre. In 1820, it was thesConnt de Legardes who took the place of the I)uie of Laval Montmorency, t►ll the Entrance of the French trop; s. Considering all that is now passing in Spain : considering the disorders at Barcelona, end other places, it is almost certain that M. Mendizabal will oveithrow the Amarillas Ministry as soon as he arrives at Madrid. Then the power will fall into the hands of the Constitutionalists of 1820. It seems impossible for the Marquis de las Amarillas and Count Torreno, now to contend against the de mantis of the liberal party. The Moniteur, speaking of the events at Barcelona says, " Pro clamations abound ; they all end with ' Long live Isabella tt.' We should like to know how they begin—for the constitution of 1812 may be proclaimed in the name of Isabella 11. ; the Infant Don Francis de Paula may ko called on to hold the Regency ; a change of Ministry, or of system, may be demanded; all concluding with "Long live Isabella II." We believe that the effect of all this will be the removal of the Ministry of Las Amarillas to make way for a Calatrava Arguelles Ministry ; the immediate convoca tion of the Cortes, and the promulgation of the law called for in the form of addresses or petitions by the Procuradores ; lastly, the wise concessions which public opinion has long required in vain. It is also possible that the Regency may be placed in the hands of the Infant Don Francis. PARIS, AUG. 13.—The papers of the frontier speak of lie Por tuguese intervention as effected. This does not agree with the very recent news from Lisbon ; besides these papers have given this intelligence before. It is agreed that the remonstrances of the English Consul has induced Don Carlos to revoke the Decree, or dering the foreign auxiliaries to be shot. Cordova entered Puentela Reyna on the sth, with three columns, amounting* to ten thousand men ; this, perhaps, gave rise to the report of a battle which we had yesterday.

Mr. F. BARING brought up the Ways and Meani Report and the Excise Laws Report, which were laid on the table. IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the motion of the Lord Advocate, this Bill was read a third time and passed. IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT (ENGLAND) BILL. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved the third reading of this Bill. • Mr. HAWES presented a petition in favour of the Bill .ont an individual of the name of Ashurst Davies. Mr. FRESHFIELD co4lained that the House had been taken by surprise on the present occasion, as the general opinion seemed to be, that it would not be pressed during the present Session. He felt himself now compelled to snake a stand at this last stage of the measure. The Report of the Common Law Commissioners, upon which it was alleged the Bill was founded, by no means recom mended so sweeping a measure, nor did the evidence taken before that Committee warrant it.. He had already stated his decided ob jection to the details of this Bill, which was an attempt to limit improper credit, by doing away with the power of arrestment. This appeared to him likely to be very injurious to the interests of the smaller debtors who comprised by far the larger class, inasmuch as they were frequently compelled, from their narrow circumstances, to go upon credit.—(Hear.) This view of the subject had been taken by their neighbours the Scotch operatives, who had presented various Petitions complain ing that the effect of the measure would be to deprive them of that credit which was essential to their comfort and independence. He regretted that an opportunity had not been afforded of discuss ing, in a full House, the details of this Bill ; but he should now take the liberty of pointing out what it was they were about to in flict upon the country. The early part of the Bill provides, that. judgment may be obtained by a creditor within eleven days, with out any form of law, and ten days afterwards the debtor is to disclose any property he maybe possessed of which the creditor may take possession of. He implored the legal gentlemen on the • other side of the House, not to do discredit to themselves and to the legislature by passing an Act fraught with such injustice. Its principle was most tyrannical and most mischievous, and the worst of it was that the Court had the power of handing over all the pro perty the debtor possessed, unless security for the debt and costs was given. This was a mode of dispensing with trial by jury, which he hoped the House would not sanction. The party had merely to swear to the debt, and not a scintilla of evidence was necessary to corroborate it. He would suggest an amend ment that the plaintiff should be required to bring com petent persons to prove that the debt was really due. Could it be believed that this affidavit of the petitioner was made to apply to all cases without any limit ? It was made to apply equally to an ascertained well founded debt upon a bond, or any debt, however doubtful or difficult to prove. He would make no observations upon the second clause of the Bill, further than com mending it to the attention of the House, feeling fully persuaded that if the House looked at it, they would see it was an additional objection to the Bill. He would pass to that part of the Bill which after giving effect to the judgment, stated the way in which it was tobe enforced. Without any trial at law—without any intervention of a jury—judgment is pronounced against the defendant; he is to be summoned to appear, not before the court in which the judgment is pronounced, but before the Commissioners of the district ; he must go there at his own expense, and if he stays away he does so at the peril of being taken up by a warrant from the Commissioners, and to remain in custody till he has given a full account of all his property. There was another officer called into action. The trustee, who was not'even declared to be an officer of the Court, and over whom no person had any control except the Commissioner, with whom he might be in collusion, awl the debtors set at nought. He moved these amendments, in order that he might record in the Journals of that House, and to show to those who were interested in this question, that there were some persons in that House who saw the defects of this measure, and were anxious to remedy them. And although he could not but expect that the majority which had passed this Bill would also throw out his amendments, still he was deter mined to press them, as he was determined that this Bill should not go up to the other House, without an attempt being made to amend it. One clause was made to apply to all property, present and future; yet three following clauses purported to be provisions for the protec tion of property, after taking from the man all he possesses. Then the man was not to be discharged until he paid fifteen shillings in the pound, while he was deprived of the power of paying any thing. He referred the Attorney-General to the 102 d clause, which enacts all mopev under trust to be transferred to the assignees. Mr. HAWES—That clause is omitted. Mr. FRESHFIELD was glad of it ;_ but it would be his duty to move amendments to prevent the transfer of property in trust. At present there were nearly 127,000 cases of insolvency, and a great deal of money had been recovered from persons who, subsequent to taking the benefit of this Act, had acquired property by the Com missioners of the Insolvent Debtors' Court, which very salutary power this Act would destroy. Further, there was no assurance that the Commissioners would not be turned adrift after having served the public many years. He thought that some compensa tion.ought to be given to the Com m i ss i oners . It was t rue th ere was a compensation clause, but if it was of any value it would be the reverse of value to the Commissioners, as they were excluded. His Learned Friend the Solicitor-General held up a paper, which he trusted was a Bill upon the subject ; but as the Attorney-General did not say anything upon the subject, he was afraid his hopes were ill founded. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL had said before ' and he re peated it now, that he thought the Commissioners had an irre sistible claim, if their services were not further required, to fur ther compensation. Mr. FRESH FIELD said he trusted the Attorney-General would not insist upon the clause which threw the onus upon the creditor, of proving that he had reasonable cause to believe that his debtor was about to leave the country, or lose his action. With these observations he would leave the Bill in the hands of the House. He believed there never was a more severe, arbitrary, and unjust measure introduced to that House. It gave a preference to one creditor over the others, and prevented a fair distribution of the prepertai of the debtor. He should move, as an amendment, that the Bill be read a third time that day six months. The motion having been seconded by Col. PERCEVAL, Mr. HAWES would decidedly oppose the amendment, as he conceived that the Bill was one which would materially benefit the public. The Hon, Member retWred to the Report of the Law Commissioners, which, in his opinion, was a complete answer to the arguments of the Hon. and Learned Member opposite. Colonel PERCEVAL said the first nine clauses of the Bill were frftught with cruelty and oppression, and formed a kind nf legal Infernal Machine—(Laughter)—though he would bo sorry to com pare the Learned Attorney - CiTlfrai to Fiesold. He would certainly support the alnencuaent„'He protested, against the indecency of persiAing in forcing this Bill through the House at a morning sit. ting on a Saturday, when it was well known that the Gentlemen opposed to the compulsory principle of the Hill were unable to atlend, having made previous orrani,couxenta which prevented them. Mr, M, PHILLIPS said that it would have been a matter of great satisfaction to him, and to those connected with him, had a Commission been appointed, consisting of two mercantile men and one legal man, to inquire amongst practical men to. to certain portions of this Bill. He would have lleen satiailed with the result of the investlgattoo of such parttcs, lie considered that the com merce of the country would be affected to a degree which they were not prepared to expect, should this Bill pass into a law ; amt ho, therefore, felt bound to oppose the third reading, Mr. PEASE thought this Bill the great 4 boon to the com mercial interest§ that had ever hev.n Cnueetved or contemplated. It was well known that in almost every case, nine out of ten of the creditors were willing to come to an amicable arrangement, were it not for the objection of the tenth individual, who for the sake of dis honest advantage, or by the advice of an interested lawyer, was in duced to drag the ease into a Court of Justice. Mr. POTTER hoped the measure would be postponed till next Session, in order that the opinion of the cgmmemial men might be taken upon the subject, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL replied. By the Bill, justice was done both to the debtor and creditor, and in his (the Attorney. General's) opinion, it would be found beneficial to all parties. . After some observations from Mr. PARKER, Mr. PHILLIPS, and Mr. H. Twiss, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL made a few observations, after which the amendment was put and negatived without a division. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL then moved the introduction of a clause by way of rider, whickhad been suggested to him by the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge. Mr. ROEBUCK objected to the clause. The clause was agreed to. Mr. FRESHFIELD moved amendments to the effect that the affidavit of the plaintiff should be corroborated by one or more competent witnesses. That it shall be a good cause for the Judge refusing to sign judgment, if the attorney for the defendant made an affidavit that, in his opinion, the defendant had a good de fence to the debt ; and also that, in certain cases, the Judge would have a power of extending the time for putting in security. After a few observations from Mr. HORACE TWISS and Mr. SHARIIAN CRAWFORD, Mr. FRESHFIELD withdrew his amendment, and the Bill was passed. AR RESTMENT OF WAGES BILL (SCOTLAND.) The House went into Committee upon this Bill, on the motion of the LORD ADVOCATE. Captain GORDON thought the Bill unwise, but as he was unacquainted with it, he would offer no opposition to it ; but he must complain of its being brought on when no Scotch Member a cquainted with the subject was present. The report was ordered to be received on Monday. CESSIO BONORUM. This Bill also went through ComMittee without comment, and the report was brought no by Mr. Bernal. The Insolvent Courts (Ireland) Bill was read a second time. On the order of the day for the third reading of the Peace Pre serdation in Ireland Bill being read, Mr. P. SCROPE pre posed as an amendment,—" That thi s House would not bo justified in passing a rneasnn-, to increase the severity of the law for the punishment of criminal outrage s in Ireland, if it did not propose to take into consideration, at the earliest opportunity, measures for the removal of the leading c auses of such crimes, by affording some protection to ejected tenants, or some other resource than mendicancy or vagrancy, to those who can find no market for their labour, and by securing to every iristimais the means of existence by honest and peaceable i n dustry." Lord MORPETH hoped the lion. Member would be induced to withdraw his resolution, when he assured him that it would be his anxious endeavour next Session to bring in such remedial measures ac would be nooessary to meet the ovils complained of. Mr. I'. SCROPE withdrew his resolution, and the Bill was then read a third time and passed. • REFORM OF COURTS (SCOTLAND) BILL. On the motion of the Luau ADVOCATE this Bill was read a third time and passed. The Court of F i vliequer (Scotland) Bill, and the Forgeries (geotiamt) Bill, severally went through Committee. LEGACY ACTS. The Report upon this Bill was brought up, and upon the motion of Mr. RAPHAEL leave was given to bring in a Bill to exempt from the payment of the legacy duty bequests to charities. 31T B , !I G DrPoy)it 10 a Till to exempt persons selling a limited quantity of spirits in the year from paying the heavy Li cense Duty. lord MORPETII gave notice, that on Monday next he should move for leave to bring in a Bill to regulate the Volice of Dublin. The otber,Orders of the Day were then disposed of, end the H ous e ailjourfied 4t ten roluni4 before Three o'clock till Monday. PARLIAMEN TARY S UMMARY. In the LORD'S yesterday afternoon, the Oaths Abolition Bill was read a first time. Lord BROUGHAM suggested a protec tive provision for that Corporation property which was held in trust for charitable uses : and subie•quently added, that if the subject were put off till next Session, there would be such a change of trust property, that no Court of Equity would be able to interfere. The second reading of his Lord ship's Bill (the Charitable Institutions Act) was then agreed to. Many petitions were presented on the subject of the Municipal Corporations Bill, chiefly in favour of it. The House then went into Committee on the Bill, beginning with clause 8. The clauses up to the 14th were agreed to. On that clause being put, Lord LYNDHURST proposed as an amendment that the Town Council should be elected from one-sixth part of the highest rate-payers. This amendment, which requires a property qualification, was strongly opposed, but finally carried by a majority of 81. The clauses up to the 23d inclusive, were agreed to. It was announced that the Committee would not last longer than Tuesday. In the CommoNs', Mr. Keith, imprisoned for his participa tion in the Ipswich affair, was reprimanded and discharged. Mr. ELPHINSTONE gave notice, that early next session he would move for leave to bring in a Bill to disfranchise the borough of Great Yarmouth. Mr. TANCRRD gave notice, that on the 20th instant he should move that the Attorney-General be directed to prosecute the parties proved to have been guilty of bribery there. A great number of petitions were presented from various places throughout the country. The petitioners prayed the House to sanction no mutilation in the principle of the Municipal Corporations Bill, now in Committee of the Lords. Oa the motion of Mr. Hew., it was ordered that "a message be sent to the Duke of GORDON and Lord KENroN, requesting their attendance before the Orange Lodge Select mmittee." The Slave Compensation Bill was read a third passed. Mr.TREVOR'S Sale of Beer Bill was negatived. time, ZYKI The CHAOELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then brought forward his Budget, the details of which are dealt with in another part of our paper, some slight reductions, it will be seen, were resolved on. The duty on flint glass is to be reduced from 6d. to 2d. per lb. The drawLicck is reduced likewise to 2d. A reduction in the duty on spirit licenses, where the quantity sold does not exceed a certain small quantity, to be specified hereafter, is also contemplated. These reductions, and the repeal of the stamp duty on awards In Ireland, are the sum and substance of the CHANCELLOR'S Budget for the year. Th amount of surplus on the revenue of the year was stated at 830,000!. THE FUNDS.--(THIS DAY.) CI7'I',7'IVELYE O'CLOCK. The general topic of conversation in the Gil is the Budget, produced last night by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the House of Commons, which is generally viewed in a very favourable light, with the exception of the Tory party ; but they are so few in number, that their opinions are disregarded.

The Learned Gentle man had recently taken possession of a villa called Mount Plea sant, at Kingsbury, near to which is a reservoir connected with the Paddington Canal. To this piece of water four of his sons had repaired for the purpose of bathing. Three of them en tered the reservoir at the same time, and in a very few minutes disappeared. Their elder brother, who remained on the bank, plunged in to their assistance, and the whole four unfortunately perished. The age of the youngest is 15, and that of the eldest 21. The distress which this dreadful event has occasioned to the father and mother, the two surviving brothers and three sisters of the unfortunate youths, may be more easily imagined than described. An inquest on the bodies was held last night by Mr. Stirling, the Coroner, and a respectable jury, who re turned a verdict " That Alexander Henry Sidebottom, William George Sidebottom, and Edward Sidebottom, were acciden tally drowned while bathing ; and that Charles Radcliffe Sidebottom was accidentally drowned in attempting to save his brothers." The Court of Appeal at Bruhsels has just cancelled the sentence of the Tribunal of the First Instance, which had declared itself competent in the affair of Mrs. Helen Paterson against Mr. Long Wellesley, and admitted her to bring proof of her being the lawful wife of Mr. Wellesley, According to accounts from the front;ers of Servia, dated July 28, the plague made its appearance in Macedonia. A letter states that arrests continue to take place at Amsterdam.—BrusseTh Paper. 5 7 5 tmi MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS BILL. .

ROBERT DONALDSON, wine merchant, Leith, Aug. 18 and Sept. I, at two, at the Old Signet Hall, Royal Exchange, MARKET INTELLIGENCE. ( From the New London Price Current of last evening.) Sue An.—The demand for West India Muscovades contiiiues'ge neral and extensive, and as the West India Mail brings further ac counts of short crops in the islands, which fully confirms the pre vious statements of a short supply of Sugar, we have this week the holders again demanding higher prices ; the sales this week are esti mated at 2,500 hhds. and trs., at very full prices ; very firm early in the week, but this day there is not so much briskness, on ac count of the sprinkling of Sugars expected from the late arr' .va b . The prices of the Sugars under 61s. are again 6d. to if c wt. higher this week ; few browns offer under 579.. prices'of fine realized in the market are 635. a• .4nd per the highest been paid this day for refining. In ref . : 40s there Cis w s a further -(ed e i , the latter has ad vance ; the fine crashed has beer sold 40x. to 415., and still f goods to be had at any prig been readil pa the buyers of the home trade have yinr - holders of r y ef— 5)1... and 82s. for Lumps. This afternoon the are still asking higher prices, 81s. for shipping, and ftr the home trade. ALA ur.rnus.—The public sale on Tuesday did not go off with the briskness expected, nor at such high prices ; they did not sell in proportion with West India Sugars, but still went off Is. to Is.

EAST INDlA.—There have been large parcels of East India Sugar re-sold at a profit of ls. to 2s. per cwt., chiefly Manilla at :305., of which about 12,0(N) bags have been re-sold ; there is a good demand for Java Sugars about 325., and for good quality white Bengal 335. and 365. now asked. FtinElG N.—About 1,300 boxes white Iravannah sold at 425., which is again 2s. per ewt. higher.

India Molasses, sales being reported at 265. and 275., and ord. quality 235. This afternoon a large parcel of good quality of Antigua sold at 275. COFFEE.—There is little alteration to notice in the prices of British Plantation Coffee. The public sales have !seen rather limited in extent, but very firm in maintaining the late prices, and in some instances the ordinary have sold rather higher. The East India Coffee have sold ls. to 2s. higher, and will probably maintain this advance so long as the British Plantation Coffee sell at such high prices as the present; Ceylon 625. 6d. to 645. ; very ord. Su matra 40s. (id.; the only circumstances against the East India Co - fee are the large sales advertised by the Dutch East India Company, of which nearly 17,000 bags Java are stated at Middleburg, 22d September,, 11,000 chiefly Java at Amsterdam, Ist October, and on the 6th of the same mouth 95,000 at Retterdam. The inquiries for Foreign Coffee here continue extensive; a large parcel of Brazil imyorted in-1331 sold at an average of Ms. 63., dingy low ord. to good iYrdS; a parcel of Cuba, even qiiality but unclean, offered, but there were no billings above 50s. By public sale this forenoon 61 casks British Plantation Coffee were advertised, but a considerable proportion was withdrawn ; some Jamaica good ord. to fine tine ord.. sold 935. a 1025., two lots triage and ord. 83s. a 935. Gd., very full market prices. Cocoa.—The great proportion of the stock of Brazil Cocoa in this market is held for much higher prices than the present cur rency, and is mostly held by one house ; one parcel lately offering in the market, 400 bags, is,ld early in the week at 295. British Plantation Cocoa is heavy ; a parcel of 200 bags Grenada at public sale, good red sound was nearly all taken in 445. Gd. to 465. 6d. ; the holders arc, however, sanguine that the high prices of Coffee will force Cocoa into consumption in England. RUM, BRANDY, axis HosistNns.—The inquiries after Rum ' continue general and rather extensive, and there would be large sales had we adequate supplies at market, but there are few land ings, and the holders still firmly maintaining the late advance; a government contract is expected neat week; the sales reported are Jamaica 15 ever 2s. 101. and 31 over at 3s. 3d. Brandy is dull, and rather lower. Geneva unvaried, pale 2s. per gallon. Seics.s.—There is little alteration to report in spices.

Fa um —The sales of Currants and Rod Smyrna Raisins reported are considerable. SA LTPETRE.—The large sales of Saltpetre early in the week went off with briskness at full prices; there is since little doing, but the market looks firm. NITRATE us Sena.—There are partial sales at 20s. Gd. sS 20s. 9 ,1 Hors.—The accounts from the Hop Plantations contnue favour-. able; the estimated duty has lately advanced to :1: - . ), '000/.. ; there a , c, however, various statements to the contrary the daily papers , which are from interested parties, a n d are without foundation. hsnico.—There is some revival i n the demand for indigo, par ticularly for export ; several s a l es are r eporttsl, which is rather a new feature in this market, as Indigo gas naslately been in a very de pressed state. StLx.—During the week there, has been a good business doing in China Silk, and prices have so high as 235.
