We have scarcely room to notice therm. The discussion of the Election Projet, or rather the reading of speeches, was continued through Monday and Tuesday, and was again adjourned till - Weduesday. The follow ing arc extracts : " PARIS, MAY 24.—Monday the Baron Vin cent, Austrian Envoy Extraordinary and Minis ter Plenipotentiary, 4elivered to the King at a private audience the answer of her linperial and Royal Highness the Archduchess Duchess of Par ma, to the notification of the death of his Royal Highness the Duke de Berry.

(The accounts in these Journals from Mathid are of the I Ith instant, but they contain nothing of the slightest interest, The Eng,lish and Netherland Ambassadors are stated to have pre sented to the King autograph !wets from their Sovereigns, containing congratulations on the pew system ) XV e have •received this morning an account of a very la►ntentable event that happened yesterday at Dover. About five huodted persons went yes terday from Folkstone, armed with scythes, spades, pick-axes, &c. and proceeded to the gaol at Dover, which they demolished to such an extent as to admit of the rel,ease of all the prisoners, chiefly consisting of smugglers', all of whom es caped.' The Magistrates assembled, and the Riot Act was reatl. The Military were ordered out, but were not ordered to fire, as the mischief had been effected, and the mob were dispersing. Since the above, we have received the follow ing intelligence from an authentic quarter : " The Town Jail of Dover has been the scene of riotous proceedings. An immense multitude . assembled from Folkstone, Deal, and other places on the Coast, who made an entry through the old part of the Jail and rescued the Prisoners, I I of whom had been confined there for smuggling tra:lsactions, and who had been taken by the Com mander of the Lively. One of the Rioters was committed ►o Canterbuty Jail under the custody of constables, but be was rescued on their way there." The Motion of the Marquess of LANSDOWN, yesterday, in the House of Lords, relative to the state of our Foreign Trade, produced a long and interesting Debate. The Noble Lord, as far as we can presume to judge, seemed inclined to wards the• removal of restrictions on foreign im ports, which have been found highly beneficial to our colonial interests, particularly in reference to the Timber Trade.—The Earl of LIVERPOOL fol lowed the Marquess, step by step, in a very States man-like manner, and displayed profound.know ledge of all the subjects in discussion, affording the most satisfactory information on every point introdnced by the Noble Marquess ; and in con clusion, expressing his hopes that the House would not come to any rash conclusions, or give coun tenance to any theories which might shake the foundation of those sound principles which had successfully supported •us -through all our diffi culties, and essentially maintained the prosperity of the Empire.—The Insolvent Debtors' Bill,•and the Wool Tax, led to a long Debate in the House of Commons, last night, but we must refer our Readers to our Parliamentary Reports, which, even if we had sufficient space, woutd• render our comments unnecessary.

COMMON COUNCIL. PARLIAMENTARY REFORM. Yesterday, the LORD MAYon, pursuant to re.- q ,, ishion, held a Court of Conimon Connell, which was j) ton er o s y attended, to consider the propriety of petitioning the House of Commons for a Parliamentary Reform. The Lord Mayor took the Chair at 12 o'clock, when— Mr. FAVIILL moved that the proceedings of the Court in 1516 should be read ; they were accordingly by the Clerk. Mr. Frsvell then pro ceeded to observe, that perhaps there was not a more favourable period for this important discus sion, as the Temple of Janus was now shut all over the world. The Constiturion, he said cer tainly was an excellent fabric, but like many o - her stt venires required to be examined and sepaired af!er a violent hurricane. He know it would be said that the Corporation Were too busy in nted tiling with things not belonging to them ; but Sir James Mackintosh had s.uiul he would bate given up the - Criminal Laws alto ; zether had it not been for the Corporation of London. He loved the Constitution and the House of Bruns.- wick, his father had fought for that H ouse , an d he was only anxious for the prewrvntion of the Constitution in its full force. The Worthy Mem ber concluded by morinc a seties of Resolutions. Mr. TAYLOR aecoffiled the motion, and C &led the disaffection which existed in the country to be solely occasioned by the state of the Repre sentation. Air. JAMES, in a brief speech, oppa%ed it. Mr. CHARLES PEARSON Supported the 'notion, as did Mr. WILLIAms, of Smithfield. Mr. S. -DIAON, in opposing the motion, said, he did not believe the want of Reform to be the cause of the public distress. Mr. CLARKE, in a few words, gave the motion his support. Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN, in a speech of great length, took a review of the distress of the coun try, and of the cot iOll which he charged upon the House of Commons, anti concluded with some observations in refutation of the arguments brought against Reform by Mr. Canning and others. Mr. PATTF,N here rose, but tie cries of "Ques tion" were so loud that the worthy Member sat down. Mr. WILLIAms also rose amidst repeated cries of " Question, question," but neristt:d in o btain. ing>a bearing, and moved an adournment, which Will negatived by a great majority. The original question was then put, anti only four hands were held up against it. A !'eti ion to the House of Commons, founded on the Re solutions, was then agreed to, and the Court broke up at half past four. UNIVERSITir INTELLICiLNCE. OXFORD, MAY 26 —The Rev.
