he mutter of surprise that no fewer than seven of his Majesty's Ministers professed to he friendly to Catholic Emancipation. He could not see how they could reconcile their conduct, as Ministers and Members of Parliament, with political consist eHr or political honesty. Till the Catholic Question was 63411 Y settled, there could he no remedy for the evils of Ire land. The present was a fit time for the adjustment of their clai us, and he was sure the Catholic Body was prepared to come before Parliament in a spirit of moderation, and to yield every security that could reasonably be demanded. The question was one which ought not to remain undecided, as the disqnalifying of so many millions of fellow subjects, without some good and sullicieut reasons were shown for it, became an act of flagrant injustice. Standing there, the Represen tative of a very respectable body of Catholics, he felt it to be Lis duly to protest against, the conduct of Government, in post,ioning the adjustment of these important claims frdm Sri'-'on to Session as they had done tor many years. , NIF. TIERNEY did tot rise to oppose the Address. If he had had the disposition to do so, after the very able speech wt.ici , had been made by his Hon. Friend behind hint, he oni.l feel that it' would be worse than presumption in him t, , make that attempt. - He enly rose to guard against being !opposed to co►uttiit himself without rest rve to the whole of the sent , tornts expressed in the Address—that it might not he thought, from his ;I - resent silence, that he was bound to take any particular part in future ►cith respect to any of the topics touched upon at •its close. There were sonic points tonching the improycd state of public credit (inclod in.; that blot in our system (the paper circulation), which lie thought merited the most mature deliberation. He intended shortly to bring the subject before the House; and, wishing to take the earliest opportunity of making this known, if it would not be cousidered irregular, he would now give notice, that on Tuesday, the 2d February, he would move the flou;e for a Committee to inquire into the state of public credit, as connected with the Rank. The motion for an Address was then carried nem. con. and a Ccmatittee immediately appointed to prepare the Address. BANK FORGERIES. Sir JAMES MACINTOSH wished to ask the Right Hon. G ntlemati, übether there was any report made by the com mission api °hued last Session to inquire into the means of for . zi•ries on Bank-notes ? H The CANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied, that they bad made a report, t hat it had been laid before Ins Royal Hizlmess, and that it would be laid, so soon as the course of business wonlil allow, before the House... Sir JAM ES ALACINTOSH asked if ally idea could be given of the time ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that it would be in a kw days. NNIND‘:OR ESTABLISHMENT. Mr. TIERNEY said, he understood something was to he brought before the House respecting the care of the Royal Pet son ; but whether the custody of his Majesty's person was to he the only consideration, or whether the Establishment al Windsor was to be considered, he did not know. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied, that bsdh the custody of his Alajesty's person and the regulations of the Household would he brought tinder the consideration of the House, and on Tuesday next his Noble Friend was to more a resolution on the subject. NI r. TIERNEY said, that he had asked whether the Wind sor Establishment was to be the subject of consideration; and to this the Right Honourable Gentleman bad given no answer. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that the , Windsor Establishment lie considered to he that part of the Household F.stablishrnent which was at Windsor. Nlr. TIERNEY asked whether the whole of the Establish. merit at Windsor was then to he submitted to the House? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, he was not prepared to say whether it was or not; but Ins Noble Friend was to wake a proposition on the subject. The House adjourned at 7 o'clock. LONDON JOURNALS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. [Morning Post.] • WESTNII NSTE E LEMON. MR. EDITOR,—Sir SycJoey Smith, the glorious Defender of Acre !—the only Briton who ever fought Buonaparte hand to hand, A ud beat him! fi-rst taught Europe that Buonaparte was not invincible to bravery and skill !—wl:o showed bimsclf, by his negociation for the evacuation of Egypt by the French, equally great as a Statesman and a Warrior ! Where can we find , :y - ,t.her man so well qualified to repre6ent the City of West minster ? AN ELECrOIt. rlfen-ning Herald.] Yesterday forenoon, Lord Castlereagh, in order to pass a few days in tranquillity, as essential to his restoration, left his house in St. James's square, for his seat, North Cray, where his Lord ship will continue until Tuesday next. [The Times.] COURT or Excuectutta.—A novel occurrence, says a Correspondent, took place yesterday morn ing in Gray's•lnn Hall. When the Lord Chief Boron ordered the next cause to be called on, the Registrar answered there was no other cause. For this the public are indebted to the Lord Chief Baron, who, since he has presided in that Court, has applied himself with so much assiduity, that be has heard every cause that stood in the paper for hearing, of which, for many years past, there has beta so great an arrear. FOR THE SUN. H. begs permission to convey to the Editor of THE SUN his cordial respects, and to assure him, that he himself perfectly coincides in the propriety of that exercise of his undoubted prerogative, as Mo narch of his OA n Dominion, THE SUN, which has closed the discussion on the Bible Question ; and to return his sincere thanks to the Editor, for the flittering manner in which he has conveyed to H. himself the rejection of his last .letter on the subject. . As it is a matter to which H. cannot again publicly advert, he trusts that- the Editor will excuse hint thus adding, that he con ceives it a fortunate circumstance that such a question has been concluded with such a perti nent letter as that of PaISCUS, who well merits to claim and have the last word. There certainly has existed in the mind of H. a floating intention of submitting to THE SUN a thought or two on the Catholic Question ; but a few days must ne cessarily intervene, before avocations which must he attended to will leave him leisure for the pur pose. At the same time he cannot but candidly confess, that nothing can be said, at least by him, which can add to the force of those observations • which THE SUN, speaking for itself, has from time to time already given, and which must carry conviction to every reflecting mind. That THE .Sus nyty long continue to maintain its genuine characteristic, not as a Ministerial or an Anti ministerial, but as a CONSTITUTIONAL. PAPER, is the-ardent wish of 4ait. 20, 1619.

The Path Papers of Monday last still remain due, together with those of Tuesday, none hav ing arrived this morning. Extract of a Letter from Nevis, dated Dec. 15,1818. " The piratical brig, seized at St. Bartholo mew's, has since been condemned, and advertised for sale ; after she was taken posseision of, five vessels that she bad taken, came into Five Islands, and were again captured by two of BRION*B Squadron-; soon after which she left that station, in consequence of being told that the Swedish Government bad sent an English man of war to come down. They have been at anchor in an out Bay at St. Martin's.:Nothing can be depended upon as to rehat they are, or from whence they came, but it is certain that two of them had new Negroes on board to the amount of 750. The others had wine, leather, dry goods, cotton, coffee, sugar, rice, elephants' teeth, hides, tallow, horns, and other articles, the produce of Brazil. " The Small-pox broke out amongst the Ne groes, and caused dreadful devastation. " It is certain that Lord COCHRANE has joined BRION with a 60 gun ship, called the Venezuela; one of 32 guns, called the Peru ; and one of 32 guns, called the Mexico. BRION has given up the chief command to him, after declaring all the posts on the Main (possessed by Spaniards) in a state of blockade." The account of Lord COCHRANE having joined BatoN is discredited ; as the- ship Rose, in which he sailal, has been insured to Valparaiso. The Pamcs REGENT'S Speech, as delivered by the Lords Commissioners yesterday, of which the Public will see that we gave a correct outline in THE SUN of that day, seems, as fdr as we can yet learn, to have afforded'general satisfaction. Even The Morning Chronicle, which is too shrewd to pass over grounds of rbasonahle objection, and too little favourable to Ministers to pay them An unnecessary compliment, expresses itself with more than usual candour, as follows :—" The Speech with which the business of the new Par liament was yesterday opened, was evidently di- Bested with an anxiety to avoid animadversion. The topics are stated with becoming moderation; and there is but one assertion on which there is likely to be much variance of opinion—we mean the paragraph in which it is said, that the manufactures, trade, and commerce of the country are in a Sou• risuing condition." Now as this ground of objection relates to matter of fact, it admits of an easy re futation, and we may therefore confidently refer to the state of the United Empire to prove that all who are disposed to work may find employ ment, and that trade and manufactures are really in as flourishing a condition as might be expected after the sudden cessation of a long and bur thensome \Var, which must necessarily have' af fected many classes of society, who subsist upon what a state of war must unavoidably have re quired. That there is some 'discontent in manufacturing towns we admit, but it is con fined to the idle, the dissolute, and to those who have been corrupted by such political In cendiaries as the HUNTS, the COBEETTS, and the rest of those turbulent spirits, whose licentious and daring speeches and writings demonstrate the lenity of our laws, and the liberality of our Go vernment. The rest of the topics introduced in the Speech are all of such a nature as must be gratifying to every loyal and well-disposed sub ject throughout the Empire ; and we have full reason to hope that the same wise and patriotic Administration which, pursuing the system of the immortal PITT, preserved the Country, and rescued Europe, will unceasingly endeavour to render us as happy at home as they have rendered us glorious throughout the civilized world. We Lave thought it our duty to give an ample account of the Speech of Mr. SINCLAIR last night in the House of Commons, because it holds forth that line of conduct which becomes an independ ent Member of Parliament. Such a Repre sentative will not be either the dupe of a Party, or the slave of an Administration. This Gentleman delivered similar sentiments on the Election for the County of Caithness. We inserted his Speech on that occasion with plea sure, and with pleasure we add, that Tits SUN which contained it was widely circulated through out Scotland, and was much admired in that coun try. We are glad to see Parliament commence with such a satisfactory Speech from this Gentle man, and sincerely hope that it will operate as an example to the House of Commons in general, as well as to all its new Members. Bahama Papers to the 26th November have been received, which state that a dreadful fire had broken out in that Island on the 14th, which had destroyed a great number of houses. DR. NVOLCOT.—Yesterday the Remains of this celebrated Character were deposited in a vault of St. Paul's, Covent-garden, and, according to the desire of the deceased, as near as possible to those of his favourite, BUTLER, the Author o f Hudibras. He was attended to the grave by Mr. FRANCIES, his Executor, M r . SoANE, Mr. SHIELD, Mr. CoNDELL, Mr. 'TAYLOR, Mr. SEALE, Mr. BRANDON, Mr. Wool), Solicitor to the deceased, and other private friends. The funeral was not ostentatious, but handsome, and suitable to the talents, learning, and reputation of this distin guished favourite of the Muses. MARY STUART.—We yesterday inserted a pa ragraph stating a report, that the Tragedy with this name bad been withdrawn, because Miss O'NEILL refused to perform in the same piece with Miss SOMERVILLE, to whom a part had been assigned. An appeal has been made to our im partiality in a short letter which we insert this day. We have enquired, and find that the piece in question has been actually withdrawn, but we must still declare, that we cannot give credit to the charge thus brought against Miss O'NEILL, whose talents we much admire, and whose private character is, from all accounts, deservedly held in high esteem. We have received other articles on the same subject, which we do not think pro per to insert ; but as Proprietors of Theatres not only incur great expense in the purchase of their property, but on every night of representa tion, with au entire uncertainty , whether they shall even be indemnified foe the nightly dis bursements, &c. we conceive that no impedi ment should ever be thrown in their way by the conduct of Performers. Yet we cannot 'bring ourselves to believe that any Actor or Ac tress, however high in repute- and popularity, would ever hazard the favour of the Public by caprice, jealousy, or any other illiberal and un worthy motive. The tragedy in question, we are assured, bade fair, by the united efforts of these Actresses, to become a very attractive drama, and was likely to be popular throughout the season. THE QUEEN'S PICTURES. - - ' There are a great num ber of valuable Cabinet Pictures and Miniatures in Buckingham House, which were the private property of the QUERN, though they are not mentioned in her MAJESTY'S Will, and the hall and staircase display some of the finest walks of the elegant artist CANALETTI, painted when he was in England. These will probably now be added , to the PRINCE REGENT'S Collection. The cele brated Cartoons of RAPHAEL were formerly placed in Buckingham House, but have since been re moved to Hampton Court, where they no w remain. Yesterday, while a number of Surgeons were making some exreriments in the Demonstration Theatre, at St, Thomas's Hospital, some thief contrived to enter and carry off the Operator's coat, and escaped undiscovered. FOR THE SUN. Ma. totion,-1 read a paragraph in your Pa per of this evening on the subject of Mary Stuart—rely on it, it is true—as Miss O'NEILL IS shortly coming out in a new Tragedy, where she acts by herself, and Miss SOMERVILLE is ex cluded. As an impartial Journalist, it is your duty to mention this strongly, as the Public are not to he deprived of such a treat as a Play of Scut Lunt's by the caprices of any Actress, parti cularly by the injury olanother. Your's, &c. Jim. 21. Mary Stuart is withdrawn. DRAMATICUS. FOR TITIL SUN. MR. EntTon,—Observing in your Publication of the I th instant, a Letter signed " An Officer of the R. M." relative to the unfortunate brig Maly, driven on the Goodwin Sand last month, and scandalously plundered ; and that some part of the letter in question applies to myself, as Clerk to the House of AUSTEN and SON, here, feel myself bound to call upon you for the name of the writer thereof, in order _to enforce a cor rection of the gross misrepresentations set forth in the paragraph complained of, so far, at all events, as I am alluded to.
