• Rouse, but postpone it to next Session. The Hon. Member therefore gave notice of his intention to bring it forward early next Session, and proposed to enter the Address he should move upon the Journals. Mr. Si RICE thought his Hon. Friend would defeat his own object by putting the. Address he intended to move on the Journals; it would throw difficulties in the way not to be re moved. Mr. Secretary CANNING submitted to the Hon. Gentleman whether it would not be more consistent with his object to give notice, and bring it on next Session, without putting the nature of his motion on the Journals. Air. D. BROWN said he should either bring on the subject that night, or put the Address he intended to move upon the Journals. He proceeded upon an understanding with the Hon. 1110mber for Londonderry. Sir G. HILL intimated that he had stated to the Hon. Mem ber that it would best promote his object to give notice of the motion and bring it on next session. Mr. a BROWN then moved (in substance) that an Address be, presented to his Majesty expressing regret that the reforma tion had made but small progress in Ireland. Many Roman Catholics still remained firm in their doctrines. They therefore prayed his Majesty would be pleased to make provision for the establishment of the Roman Catholic Church in Ireland, sub ject to regulations consistent with the-rights and dignity of the Crown, and'the rights of the Established Church. Colonel TRENCH said, he could never consent to have the Address proposed by the Honourable Member put on •the Journals of the House. It was the expression of an inten tion to 'take away the rights of the 'Church and the property of the:Statt. Mr. V. FITZGERALD opposed the motion. 'Mr. 'PEEL. could not agree to such an Address, and there fore moved the previous question. M. BRIGHT implored his Hon. Friend not to put it on the Journals. - 14iiiHtIME could not support the motion without hearing a statement of the Honourable.Gentleman's plan. 'Mr. D. BROWN finding the -Sense of the House against him' withdrew his motion, but thesame time pledged himself to bring it forward next Session. Motion withdrawn. - - IVir. Secretary CANNING rose, on the Order of the Day for" the second reading of the East India Possessions Bill, and was desirous of knowing whether an Hon. Member would mike his objection to the Bill in that stage, or when the House went into Committee, on it that day. Mr. HUME consented to make his objection in the Cora mittee; The Bill was then read the second time, and committed for this day. IRISH INSURRECTION BILL.

INSOLVENT D EBTO RS' CO U RT.—John Packwood, lately a horse-dealer at Pershire, was.opp ose d i n person this day.. It appeared his insolvency w as occasioned by him (insolvent) putting his name to various bills of accommodation, without any probable means of paying them when due, and on presenting them for payment they were inva riably dishonoured. One of the bills, for 36/.165. Was taken by a working silversmith on the re spectability of the insolvent.—The CHIEF COM MISSIONER, after a few remarks, said that this' case came within the operation of the penal clause of the Act, and adjudged the insolvent to six mouths' imprisonment within the walls. CITY, lIALF-PAST ORE O'CLOCK. Consols opened at 95, but fell to 94i. They are now, however, 954. Mexican Scrip was at 4 discount, but has somewhat recovered, and is now at s premium. Very little business, how ever, has been done in any description of Public Securities this morning. Last night, Mr. Secretary CANNING, as we anticipated, declined pledging the Government of this country to the recognition of any of the South American States. ' Our Readers now see that THE SuN alone has been for a considerable time in possession of accurate information on this most important subject ; and we have the satis faction to know that our timely warnings and disclosures, though they obtained for ourselves much temporary obloquy, in consequence of their being counter to the popular feeling, have never theless saved many families from the ruin in which a blind confidence in the stability of the present order of things in South America must have involved them. Mr. CANNING also stated last night that this country had again refined. to attend 4 C the Congress which is now about to as semble." This Congress, it is. to be feared, will manifest a very hostile disposition towards South A merica,though we have many reasons for believing that it will adopt measures for the pacification of Greece. In Tu. SUN . of the Bth instant our va luable private intelligence enabled us to state as follows :—" There is now every reason to dread that one of those ominous Congresses, so fatal to the confidende by which alone the peaceful pur suits of nations can be prosperously conducted, will speedily be held." The great length and interest of the Parliamentary Debate, of which we have given a copious report, prevents us from pursuing this subject further. • DOVER, JUNE 15.—Arrived from Calais the Sovereign steam packet, Capt. HATwAnn, with his Excellency the Prince PoLIGNAc and his bride.—We regret rnuchlo state that her Excel lency the Countess LIMN has been taken se riously ill since her arrival here. Her departure for the Continent with her son, the Count PAUL, is consequently deferred, and it is said to be her Excellency's intention to return by easy stages to London. We have received the French Papers to the 14th instant.—The following are extracts ( From the Monitcur of Sunday, June 13.) NOTHING OFFICIAL. CAYLNNE (FRENCH GUYANA), APRIL M.— (Extract from a Private Letter.)—The schooner La Jonquille, commanded by M. Chieusse, has just arrived here; it sailed from Maim on the 7th, of April, so that three days have sufficed for the voyage. Hitherto, it has always been asserted that a mouth at least was necessary to return from Mana to Cayenne. The schooner L'Arte sienne, Captain Laine, is just now setting sail, to convoy to that infant settlement. Colonel Elliott, who is commissioned to direct the details, under the superior direction of the Governor of French Guyana. You have been informed of the terrible revolt'. tion which- lately broke out at Para. You know that the European population was flying in all, directions from the persecution of the native tribes, and that they wer9 crowded on . board ships ,and the frailest vessels, to withdraw frOm the fertile but ensanguined shore of the country where they were born. But what you cannot yet have learned is, that Cayenne has served as a re fuge for a great number of those families who have been rescued from death ; and that the, ca pital of our colony at this, moment, presents al most the appearance 13 , f "tt Pertngueses.settlemer4, Our conduct at Para,tn this conjuncturei.has ex cited a strong feeling of friendship in the minds of our neighbours ; they owe their safety to our Governor, Baron Milius, who caused the- most prompt and effectual succour to be conveyed to them ; for scarcely was he informed of the de plorable events which I have just mentioned, when lie -sent to Para the Artisienne, Ca pt. Laine. I must add, that the arrival, the stay, and the departure of this vessel, drew tears of gratitude from those who took refug e under the flag of the de lys, which is always at band when any good is to be done, and which hastens to afford the unfortunate its assistance and suPport: [The remainder of the Paper is occupied with the Debates of the Chambers.] A Mail from Lisbon has arrived, with Papers to the 30th ult.

The Court went into mourning on the 28th, for the late Duchess of Lucca, Maria Louisa—the mourning to continue four months. The Courts ofJustice to be closed for three days. German Papers to the 10th instant have ar rived.

The display of ornaments and jewels shone with particular splen dour; Elie Duchess of Richmond and Mrs. Watson Taylor were pre-eminently magnificent, each of them displaying large tiaras and bandeaus of diamonds which went completely round their heads its a large chain of diamonds.

LISTON'S Old Rapid was an admirable treat, and Vizingcr's Young Rapid lively and spirited. WEST, WllO merits a situation on the Winter Boards, was na tural.and effective in Frank Oatlands. The part of Miss Vortex found an admirable representative in Mrs. GIBBS. The Comedy was indeed gene rally well supported. The new Farce, announced as forthcoming at the .Haymarket Theatre, under the title of 4 Year in an: flour, or the Cock of the Walk, is, we find, written by the Author of Simpson and CO., one of the bot:Farces of the day. BatsTor.rn.--This Artist - was relebratPd in his day for his admirable skill in carving wood, and no coMpetitor- has yet appeared who has ap proached his excellence in this species of art.— His works are very seldom seen in this country, as they are highly valued and carefully preserved .• abroad. Last week, however, fool. small Fury= ings, by this Artist, were sold by Mr. STANLEY, at his roora in - Maddox-streetk The subjects were four of the miracles of our Saviour. 'The workmanship was excellent. A variety of cha racters were - introduced, and all were exquisitely finished. 'They - were sold for 436 guineas, the highest price,perhaps,that similar productions ever reached. At the same sale, a picture was sold ' b VOLTAIRE , represen_mgD'ALEMßEßT, MON TES.. QUIEU, DIDEROT, BUFFON, and all the great Phi losophers of 'his day, seated round a table, lis tening to VOLTAIRE, whose hand was raised, and who appeared to be speaking with great anima tion. .The back-ground, and some subordinate parts of the picture, were impaired, but the whole of the group was-not injured. This curious and interesting picture was sold for no more than ' 15 guineas, but. in France, most probably, would have reached a much higher price. • • . Yesterday afternoon, at half-past one o'clock, a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, which was attended by—the LORD CHANCELLOR, the Earls of Harrowby, Liverpool, Westmorland, and Bathurst ; the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Secretary Peel, Mr. Secretary Canning, Mr. Huskisson, Viscount Sidmouth, &c.

A letter from Captain Guion, of his Majesty's ship Tribune, to the Agent at Lloyd's at Trieste, states that little apprehension wasentertained for the safety of vessels proceeding to the Adriatic without convoy, but protection was given to ves sels from Corfu to Ma:ta, and through the Straits of Gibraltar. The Commander-in-Chief con tinued to keep up a strict blockade of Algiers ; and it was considered that the whole of the Algerine cruizers were within the harbour dis. mantled. Letters from France say, that the severest mea sures are resorted to by the Government to punish usurers ; amongst others, the Major of St. Andre de Bueges had been condemned by the Civil Court at Montpellier to pay a fine of 20,000 francs for malpractices in regard to the Laws of Usury. Commercial Letters from Warsaw, dated 25th May, state that in several districts of Poland fears are enter tained that there will be , a considerable failure in wheats this next harvest. The sharp cutting winds which prevailed in the latter days of April, as well as for sometime afterwards, accom panied by continued drought, have materially injured the tender plant.
