catty is stated to have arisen respecting a State Provision for the Roman Catholic Clergy. Sir F. Burdett, as did Mr. Croker, hinted in the debate at the policy of making such a provision ; but the goVstion is, whether such proposition shall make dart of this Bill, or whether it shall be the sub ject of a separete measure. In other respects the Bill will he nearly n copy of that introduced by Mr. Plunkett in l 8 1.2, and which was mainly founded on the m easure previously prepared by Mr. Grattan. The second reading of Sir F. Burdett's Bill is avowedly not to take place till after the Easter recess ; and it, is understood to b e Mr. Peel's intention then to try one debate ear the Bill :—Should that fail, he proposes to abandon all further opposition to the Bill, and to leave it to its fate in the Lords. of three millions, was like putting a stable into a horse— instead of a horse into a stable. These logical peccadillos were forcibly exposed by the Chancellor of he Exchequer, and turned into practical ridicule by Mr. Hume, who, early on the very even•ng that Mr. Maherly last week submitted his Resolutions, gave notice of a motion to abolish the Sinking Fund, for some day this week. To the latter cir cumstance is owing the preceding observations on the dis cussion of Thursday. We are glad that Parliament should have another opportunity of fairly canvassing the expediency and utility of maintaining a Sinking Fund. To the existence of that Font], and to that only, is now referable any demand advanced either in or out of Parliament for a further reduc tion of taxation. All the estimates for the year have, we may say, been already agreed to ; and even those for the Army, which, on account of the augmentation, it was supposed would be strongly resisted, have, from the perfectly unanswerable and satisfactory statement of Lord Palmerston, been ac quiesced, in without a single objection. Of those estimates then, and of the interest of the Public Debt, does the whole expenditure of the country consist--except the Sinking Fund. It is hence downright folly to talk of remitting more taxes, unless on the assumption that the Sinking Fund is to be relinquished, or at least invaded. Let this question, therefore, be decided at once, or rather once again ; let Par liament deliberately and dispassionately give judgement in the F case of the Sinking Fund v. a Reduction of Taxes—and the Country will abide the verdict. Much time, much uncertainty will thus be saved—for if it be determined to retain the whole of that Surplus Fund, all idea of further remission of duties at present must be thenceforth abandoned—and if it be found ex pedient to retain but part of it, or to retain none of it, then the question is narrowed, namely, to the sources of Revenue which it may be most advisable to give up, in order to effect the object, whether partial or total, of the Legislature. We, therefore, have no hesitation in saying, that Mr. Hume's is a most important motion—much more important, in short, than he is qualified to do justice to. At the same time it is one to which we would have nothing applied, but the plain sense— the pure reason of the House of Commons. Declamation is foreign—mathematical precision is germane to such a subject ; but in a financial point of view, nothing can be more worthy of the fullest, the freest, the fairest discussion. The first point to settle is, the actual amount of revenue now appropriated to this Fund. The next is, whether that amount is serviceable as means of directly liquidating the capital of the National Debt, or in assisting to reduce the interest of the National by maintaining the price of the public stocks equably in the Market—or thirdly, as a mere surplus in the hands of Govern ment, to supply contingent wants without the necessity of re sorting to new taxes and new loans ? The next question to determine is, whether in any or all of these ways the nation would be more benefitted by continuing the Sinking Fund or Surplus, than - by remitting its amount, as might most seem fit, in direct or indirect taxes ? We shall take occasion before Mr. Hume's Motion comes on to elucidate some of these con siderations. [BRITISH PRESS.] 'One of those arbitrary and indecent violations of private rights, in which the Continental Go vernments do not hesitate toihdulge when their pleasure or their interests are concerned, was committed last week at Boulogne and Calais, by order of the French Govenment. On Wednes day, the commercial letters travelling by private expresses from this country to their respective destinations] were stopped, opened, and read.— Some of them were detained for nearly four Mors, in order that all the dispatches might be carefully examined. In one bag there were forty letters, all of which underwent perusal. — It was then made known, that in future the same practice would be continued regularly. As an ex case for this scandalous breach of confidence, it is pretended that theFrenchGovernment is suspicious that dangerous communications of a political nature -were transmitted by these conveyances. Power will never be at a loss for apologies to cover its abuses; but surely, considering all the circum stances of Europe at this moment, there never was one so utterly groundless as this. What should we think of an English Minister, who, because he might fancy that the whole of the private correspondence in the kingdom did not abound with praises of his administration, should give directions suddenly to have all the letters in the Post-ollice broken open and read ? Yet a measure of this violent and tyrannical character is carried into execution in France almost like one of the laws of paramount importance to the State. [NEW TIMES.] The Monopoly of Port %Vine, alluded to in the louse of Commons the other evening, is a sub ject which cannot but be particularly interesting to the public, at a moment when our own Govern ment is so liberally reducing the duties on that article. In another part of our Paper will be found a letter, throwing much light on the mono. poly, which which is exercised under the sanction of the Portuguese Government, by a Company at Oporto. The vineyards of Portugal produce enough fine Port Wine, one year with another, to supply thrice the consumption of England, and their pre sent productiveness might be increased at least a fourth ; so that, were it not for the monopoly of the Oporto Company, the English Market might be supplied with Wines in greater abund ance than at present, of a finer quality, and at least 101. per pipe cheaper. But it is the avowed object of the Company to enhance the prices on the English consumer by causing every year a fictitious scarcity. We trust that the Portu guese Government will learn from the example of our own, that. in matters of commerce, Libe rality is the best policy. It is most absurd, that Portugal should suffer her staple commo dity 4o remain in such a state of thraldom, and should sacrifice the interests of her best cus tomers to the personal gain of a few monopolists. We are very desirous that the British Public should enjoy the comfort of a bottle of port in as high a perfection, arid at as moderate a rate as possible ; but while the monopoly in question exists, it must present an insuperable obstacle against their so doing. [MORNING cituomict.r.:l It is currently reported that a Noble Earl at the head of his Majesty's Government, who has hitherto opposed the Question of Catholic Eman cipation, in the House of Lords, now sees the wisdom and policy of conceding to that great body of the people their just claims ; and that, when the Bill comes before the i PPper House of Parliament, he will give it his support. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] A Brazil mail arrived last night, bringing Rio Papers to Jan. 8 ; and, if their contents form a good criterion of the state of that empire, no country upon earth can be more free from matter of an extraordinary or agitating character. The papers contain absolutely nothing beyond the substance of an imperial decree for the suppression of crimes, which, it is said, has reached such a height, particularly those of rob bery and murder, as to render necessary police regula tions of a very rigorous character, anti which are in conse quence to be tried, as soon as the proper means are organ ized for the purpose. However, they are only an imita tion of the armed patrole system, which has been long esta blished in almost every part of Europe ; with this difference, however, that there is much less occasion for them than in the countries from which they have been borrowed. There is, fur ther, an account of the acquittal of Lieut. Pascoe Grenfell, of the Brazilian naval service, on some charges instituted against him for alleged misconduct whilst on duty at Para. Of these charges the Court Martial has acquitted him in the most honourable manner. We have now supplied the whole of the intelligence brought by this mail ; and it is no uninteresting phenomenon, that a country, which has but just emerged, we might say, from a semi-barbarous state, and, what is perhaps worse, her dependence on a remote and jealous Power , shou ld, by the mere force of her new Institutions, acquire in so short a space of time such an appearance of political consist ency as is manifest in her present situation. Yet this is one of the States which, according to the insolent dicta of the Holy Alliance are unfit to govern themselves : but they have refuted the charge in the most triumphant way imaginable, by the constrast between their condition and that of the parties who have ventured to prefer it. If superior prosperity, as well as a better system of rule, form a title to precedence, it is the Governments of the New World who should controul the Members of the Holy Alliance, instead of being dictated to by that Body, whose stupid prejudices are only surpassed by the blind infatuation and head-long violence of its proceedings. What little speculation was entered into on Saturday was on rather higher terms than on Friday, owing to several Ex presses from Paris, with letters of Thursday last, which state, that the French Funds on that day had experienced an advance of nearly I per cent. It would appear by the report of those private Messengers, who come by way of Boulogne, that they were stopped by the Police at that Port, who inspected all their letters and papers, under the expectation that they con tained some correspondence respecting the Greeks, of an of fensive nature to the French Government. What this corre spondence contains, at which the French Government could possibly take umbrage, we cannot understand; but a report to this effect was extremely current in the City. It was likewise said, that the negociations between Mr. Stratford Canning at St. Pstersburgh, and the Russian Government, with respect to the l recognition of the independence of Greece , h ad taken a very ' unfavourable turn. Consols for Account, which in the morning had risen to 94, fell to 93i, and for Money to OA. Credit was not generally attached .to this story, or .the funds would have closed consideralaly lower. Any rumour, bearing the least sem blance of probability, creates alarm among the holders of stock It the present high quotations ; and it is not at all unlikely that the funds will, for the present, remain rather heavy. The con tinuation in Consols to the Account, which terminates on the Plith April, has advanced from kto per cent., which indicates Usat t he public opinion is, in favour of an improvement, and that the decline has been occasioned very much by the demand for ruoney.—( BIRTHS.

F I R. E S. The Cooperage of Mr. Fenwick of Chelsea was burnt to the ground on Saturday evening, which was occasioned by the boil ing over of a pitch kettle. The dwelling-house was saved, but the damage is very considerable. Yesterday morning about half-past one o'clock, the neigh bourhood of Battle Bridge was thrown into a state of consider able alarm by the discovery of a fire in the cowhouse of Mr. Burgin, a dairy-man. In little more than an hour the entire building was reduced to a heap of ruins ; but by the timely ar rival of the engines, and a plentiful supply of water, the sur rounding buildings were saved, and the flames confined to the ' cow-house. Four cows, a horse, and a dog were burnt, and the cries of the poor animals were truly distressing. We are happy to hear that no further damage was sustained, and that the pre mises and the cattle were insured. Yesterday morning a fire broke out between four and five o'clock, in the lower part of a house of a certain description, No. 1, Union-street, Whitechapel, which consumed the whole of the interior and furniture before it was extinguished. On the first alarm, the inmates were thrown into the greatest conster nation, flying in all directions in almost a state of nudity. A seafaring man made his escape by;lowering himself out of a one pair of stairs window, followed by his there arnie, nothing . daunted ; Jack received her on her alighting , and bore her of in triumph. An alarming fire broke out Friday morning, in the house of Colonel Nicholson, situated at Charlton Kings, near Chelten ham. The flames were entirely got un d e r b y twelve o'clock,l after having destroyed all the upper part of the house. On the evetiing of the 4th ult. during a heavy snow-storm at Cassel, in Germany, a large ball of fire, appa rently half the size of the full moon, was visible on the northern horizon. It moved with great velocity, in nearly a horizontal direction from south-west to north-east, diffusing a most bril liant light. The night before, and in fact during the whole day it had been a violent storm from the southwest, the mer cury in the barometer being very low. One hour before the meteor appeared, the mercury had risen one degree. In the course of the night the storm completely disappeared, and the heavens became serene.

The last week we had an abundant supply of Wheat and ' Oats, but not of other articles. The trade continued in a state of stilness until nearly the end, when there was a brisk demand for the fine descriptions of Irish Wheat, and prices have since daily improved. There were many eager buyers at to-day's market, both on speculation and for consumption, at higher prices than we last quoted by Bd. to 10d. per bushel for Wheat, and 2d. to 2Ad. for Oats, and very extensive sales of both were effected. The holders of Barley and Malt were asking 3d. per bushel advance for each, and of Flour and Oatmeal 2s. per sack. Beans alone did not participate in the general rise.
