political profligacy in suggesting a reduction of the public 1 debt, the right bon. baronet was even snore guilty than j be had been. H e tepea • e d t h at t h e su bj ect was one we ll ' worthy the attention of Parliament. But wheat was the reason assigned by the noble lord for refusing the inquiry that was now asked The noble lord said that the appointment of such a committee would be a virtual abdication of the functions of government. There could be no doubt that it would—but when the noble lord had abdicated his own duty it was high time that the house should take the administration of public affairs into their own hands, instead of allowing the citizens to be in a state of conflict tvith the agriculturists.—(Hear, hear.) The present administration was a government of shifts and chances. In putting their helm about to avoid Scylla they were driven on Charybdis ; and as they knew not how to steer the vessel themselves, it was the duty of that house to determine the course which ought to be pursued.—(Hear, hear, hear.) He, therefore, respectfully supported inquiry on behalf of the agricultural interests of Ireland. Sir W. INGILBY, in reply, did not think that a sin gle satisfactory objection bad been urged against his budget, even by the right hon. baronet, the member for Tamwortb. He sought the total annihilation of the malt tax, and al be was actuated by no other motive than a desire to alleviate the distresses of the poor, he hoped the result of his motion would be a triumph over his op ponents. _ _ The gallery was then cleared of strangers, and the house divided. The numbers were— For the motion Against it . 271 Majority -101 HOUSE DUTY REPEAL. We were informed that immediately after the announce. ment of the division. Lord ALT HO, T itP rose and gave notice that on Thurs day next be should move for leave to bring in a bill to repeal th., duty on houses. 'CHURCH PATRONAGE--SCOTLAND. 'Mr. SINCLAIR, after a few observ at ions, which were inaudible, from the rub of strangers into the gallery, moved the appointment of a select committee to inquire into the state of the law of patronage of churches in Scot land, The LORD ADVOCATE, in a brief address, not one word of which could be distinctly beard in the gallery, was understood to offer no opposition to the motion. The Hon. Capt. GORDON expressed some surprise at the quarters from which such a motion had been made and supported. He bad a'vays understood it to be an admitted principle that the church of Scotland was its own head, and that ;.n its internal regulations no other authority was reepiired. He therefore could not be otherwise thall surprised to bear those who were mem bers of that church, and of the number of its ruling elders, coming forward with a proposition to refer its affairs to a cot*,,n•ittee of that house. He certainly should have thought more becoming the position of those honourable individuals to have seen them discussing the question in the General As sembly to which they belonged; and if the General Assembly should decide that it was necessary or desirable to make alterations requiring an act of parliament, then would be the fit time for bringing the subject before the house. He should have been glad to bear what were to be the pre cise objects of the inquiry. There might be some ground of complaint as to appointments ; and he was prepared to say that since the accession of his Majesty's present Mi. misters to office the crown patronage of Scotland bad been given away upon political grounds. He believed that in all tie appointments which had fallen to the crown since they hid exercised its patronage, amounting in number to seven, political motives had influenced them. He could speak from his own knowledge as to one parish with which he was connected in Aberdeenshire, where an individual proprietor resident in the parish, and most beloved by all classes, possessing four-fifths of the property of the parish, applied to the Government in favour of one Minister ; and another party, living at a distance, and only possess. ing two farms, recommended another. The latter was appointed contrary to the wish of nearly the whole of the parishioners. If ministers intended to use the appoint ments to the church as a species of political patronage, he confessed that he for one should wish to see the system al tered, for he was convinced that nothing could be more injurious to those high interests which the church was especially designed to protect.—(Hear, hear.) He objected to the committee, at the present time, because he was not prepared to legislate upon the question without the con sent and concurrence of the general assembly of Scotland. Colonel L. HAY should not have said a word upon this occasion if the bon. member had not made an asser tion as to the conduct of the government, and of a near relation of his, respecting a parish in the county of Aber deen. A mare extraordinary assertion than that of his hon. Friend was never made. In the first place, the pa tronage was not yet actually bestowed by the government, some circumstances having, up to the present time, pre vented the completion of the presentation. Secondly, if ever there was an argument founded upon any thing un sound, it was that which his hon. friend had used against allowing a committee of inquiry, at the very moment when he said that ever since the government had been in office it had bestowed the patronage improperly. If this was not making out a case for inquiry he did not know what was. He conceived it to be the best course for the house to twee to the motion. Major C. BRUCE felt assured that if the motion were arried, it would produce the greatest evils to the church of Scotland. 'the question had already been before the general assembly of the church, and by taking it out of bands, and placing it in those of the house, they would be taking it out of the hands of a muck better, and putting it into the hands of a much worse, tribunal. Who were to be the committee? Was it to be composed of persons of the communion of the church of Scotland ? Or were they to submit its affairs and interests to gentle men of so many opposite and extreme opinions? He would say that in common wisdom they were bound to avoid all tb , se difficulties, and to leave the experiment of curing the defects in the system of patronage to be tried by the general assembly. The adoption of the motion might put the house in a very awkward predicament hereafter. The committee might come to resolutions which the general assembly might think it inconsistent with their duty to adopt. This was a difficulty which had at all events be better avoided by the house waiting to see what course of proceeding the general assembly would recommend. Upon these grounds he was sorry the motion bad been made, and must oppose it. Mr. C. FERGUSSON said the hon. gentleman did not appear to know that the general assembly were altoge ther powerless on that question. The best proof of this was, that several general assemblies had passed resolutions asserting it as desirable that parliament should take into their con.ideration the object of the motion now intro duced. With respect to what had been said as to the exercise of the patronage of the crown, he felt it his duty to state as his conviction, that it never was more purely dispensed than by the present government. Believing, as he did, that good would arise from the present motion, and knowing that the people of Scotland looked to the result of it with the most intense anxiety, be trusted the house would accede to the motion. The LORD ADVOCATE was understood to say, that though be was in favour of a committee, he could not siy what proceedings ought to be ul imately adopted. Sir R. PEEL did not see any corroboration of the statements of his boo. and learned friend, as to the uni versal demand from Scotland for a reform of the church of that country. What was the proof of that demand? Only ten petitions had been presented since the coin mencetnent of the session on the subject. But supposing that many petitions were presented, yet it was plain that the object of them was to deprive one class of men of their rights, in order that they should be transferred to others. These rights had been recognised for upwards of one hundred and thirty years, and they were as sacred as the rights of advowson in the established church of England. No inquiry could be instituted into the conduct of parliament, which established those rights, because such inquiry would lead to the destruction of the rights by which every species of property was held. If, as bad been admitted, the patronage of the crown was exercised with proper judgment—if there was a disposition to conciliate the prevailing feelings of the people, but at the same time to maintain such a control over them as to prevent an improper appointment—he thought such a pri vilege existed for a most useful purpose, regarding this pri vilege as the link between the church and the crown which was sanctioned by the law. If that power and authority were exercised fur the purposes of political par tisanship, he would say such conduct constituted good grounds for investigation ; but if it were honestly exercised for the purpose of rewarding young men of merit, who, though they might be unknown to and unconnected with any parish, might still, if appointed to it, be of great ser vice to the inhabitants, he would maintain that the power of the crown, so lar from being diminished, should, if pos sible, be extended. The great object of those who supported that motion appeared to be to introduce popular elec tions. If the result of the appointment of the committee should be to abolish patronage altogether, there would be much less security than at present for the appointment of efficient, moderate, and well informed ministers, and great risk would be run that the harmony and tranquillity of the parishes would be destroyed in consequence of the bit ter spirit which would naturally prevail during elections. If the control of the crown were altogether to be removed and the elections should be left exclusively in the hands n the inhabitant., be did not see how the church of Scotland ot the cause of true religion would derive the slightest art vantage from such an alteration. ➢lr. C. FERGUSSON rose to eipiain. What he meant to say was, That 'no clergyman should be forced ou the parishioners'contrary to their inclination. Mr. COCQUHOUN said that the hon. baronet had drawn a comparison between the church of England 'and Scotland, and the right of advowson in the one with the right of patronage in the other. The fact Was, the right of advowson of the church of England stood on unassailable grounds, whereas the right of patronage was altogether inconsistent with the constitution of the church nf Scotland. Mr. GILLON would support the motion, as it would tend to detach the church of Scotland from all connection with the crown, and give to the mass of the Scotch people the right of electing their own clergy. Mr. SINCLAIR brit fly replied. The motion was agreed to without a division. BOROUGH OF ATHLONE Mr. J. TALBOT withdrew hk motion for leave to bring in a bill to alter the registration of voters in the borough of Athlone. Mr. MURRAY obtained leave to bring in a bill to vest in the crown the appointment of Procurators Fiscal in the Sheriff's Court of Scotland. The hon. gentleman objected to the patronage of those offices being reposed in the judges, as at present. Mr. GORDON intimated his intention of opposing the measure, The bill was then read a first time, and ordered for a second reading on the 14th of Mai ch. NEWSPAPER STAMPS—IRELAND. -• _ Lord ALTHORP, in moving for leave to bring in a bill to repeal so much of the 55th Geo. 111., c. 80, as prohibits the commissioners of stamps from issuing to printers convicted of seditious libels, apologised to the lion. and learned member for Drogheda, who had pre viously intimated his intention of bringing such a measure bef .re the house for forestalling him in that intention. Mr. O'CONNELL was sure there was no necessity for any apology in this case. For his own part be only wi.hed the noble lord would forestal him in all the measures which his thoughts called for in Irish affairs. As it appeared to him, however, there being no penalty attached to the ne glect of there obnoxious clauses, he hardly saw the neces sity for an Act upon the subject, as a mere intimation from government would be sufficient to avert all disas trous consequences. It had been stated to the House that this arbitrary enactment bad had its origin in the Irish Parliament. Now the fact was that it was passed in 1798, when a civil war was raging in Ireland, and revived in 1800 by the Irish Parliaments, in the same year that that body voted its own destruction. In that act, however, the withholding of stamps was left to the discretion of the government; the compulsory clauses were introduced in the act of 1815, which was also made a perpetual one. Mr. O'DWYER thanked the noble lord for taking the measure into his hands. IRISH TITHES BILL. Mr. LITTLETON brought in a bill for the abolition of tithes in Ireland, and the substitution of a land tax in their stead, which was read a first time. The Right Hon. Secretary intimated to the Irish members of that house that, as it was not his wish to press that measure hastily through the house, he would move its second read ing for the 11th of April. Mr. O'CONNELL thought such a delay was quite necessary, as many of the members of that house were ab sent on their professional duties, and would not be able to return until the assizes were over. Mr. SHEIL thought the 11th of April was hardly late enough. After some conversation between Mr. SHEIL and Mr. O'Coloixth, it was agreed that the day fixed by the Right Hon. Secretary would suit, and Mr. O'CONNELL declared that every Irish member of that house would be in his place on that occasion. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the house adjourned at a quarter-past twelve.

The annexed extract of a letter from China. touches on a point respecting which the merchants who are about to engage in the trade to China feel much solicitude, viz., the best means of protecting their interests on the spot. It comes from a practical man long resident in Canton, whose suggestions are, therefore, in every way entitled to attention:— " CANTON, OCT. 23. _ . " The members of the select committee expect to have the offer of situations here under the Consul; we hope not. As we are to commence a new system, let us commence it with new parties—not men who have been so long accustomed to abuse and ill-treatment from the Chinese. _ __ " If it be necessary to have a party to confer with the Hong merchants, and keep the Consul from degrading himself or his station, by conferring with men of no official rank, why not form a Chamber of Commerce out of the resident merchants here, who might be chosen annually by the Consul, and would serve without pay ? Their duty would be to meet the society of Hong merchants, to discuss minor points connected with trade, duties, &c., under instructions from the Consul when necessary. By this means the Consul would have no occasion to interfere openly till after the Chamber had failed, and then his conference would be with the Viceroy, Hoppo, &c., without the intervention of the Hong merchants. The Hong merchants have been spoken to think favourably of this plan. There is no need of a council to assist the Consul. Let him have the sole responsibility." r RAO* , it ; 5+0 . . -• K S THY P. a'ntt ! - ;t1 i::: '1546 16't 1 pe'r (', , nt.

The proceedings of last night in the House of Commons were alike remarkable for their mirth and the overwhelming majority in favour of Mi nisters against the repeal of the malt tax. That most facetious orator Sir 'WILLIAM INGILBY had the rare luck of keeping the House in a roar during the delivery of his good humoured speech. As for the details of the new taxes, by the imposition of which the worthy Baronet proposed to cover the deficiency that would be occasioned by the re peal of the malt duty, they are altogether so unique, and in such admirable keeping with " the speech," that we shall not venture to blur their original beauty by any at tempt at description or paraphrase. We must, therefore, refer to the speech itself, which some of the country gentlemen were so malicious, or envious, as to say had the singular merit, Iwhether intentional or not, of defeating the motion it professed to support ! Cer tain it is, that on a division the numbers were, for the repeal of the malt tax, 170, against it, 271; leaving a majority in favour of Mi nisters of 101. When this auspicious number was an nounced, Lord ALTHORP rose, amid the cheers of the house, and gave notice, that on Thurs day next he would move for leave to bring in a bill for the repeal of the house duty. Colonel EVANS last night accounted very satisfactorily for not having brought on his motion for a repeal of the window duty. He acted entirely in obedience to the ariggestions of the Central Committee of the metropolis, who were fearful that by embarrassing Ministers, by pressing the motio►►, they might neither get the house nor the window tax repealed. In the pre sent state of the revenue it is clearly impossible to remit a large amount of taxation without imposing a corresponding amount—and nothing but a property tax can satisfactorily and fairly meet this difficulty. We are exceedingly rejoiced to learn that JOHN WILLIAms, Esq., K.C., practising a the King's Bench Bar, and who has been in the habit or going on the northern circuit, is to be' the new Baron of the Court of Exchequer, in the room of Mr. Baron BAILEY. It will be recollected that Mr. WILLIAMS was associated rith the names of BROUGHAM and DENMAN, the memorable defence of Queen CAROLINE. Mr. WILLIAMS is a sound lawyer, and an estimable patriot—two very essential ingredients in the character of a good and upright judge. The Tories have succeeded at Dudley, and Sir JOHN CAMPBELL has lost his election. The contest commenced yesterday, and the poll in a few hours stood as follows :—HAWKES, 322 ; CAMPBELL, 242 ; leaving a majority of 80. We believe that the facts of this extraordi nary result will do much to promote the early success of the ballot. Sir JOHN CAMPBELL in December, 1832, succeeded by a majority of 90! Ministers may not have realized all the just expectations of the country, and some allow ance must be made for popular disappointment ; but such a variation of numbers must have some local cause, and communications we have re ceived convince us that the electors of the smaller boroughs must be the slaves of influence with open voting. We trust that the defeat of Sir JOHN CAMPBELL will promote the question of the ballot, and that the government will see the absolute necessity of confirming itself in public opinion. We only lament that so practical and consistent a reformer as Sir JOHN CAMPBELL should be the sacrifice of the system. The motion for a Select Committee to inquire into the state of Church patronage in Scotland was agreed to last night without any opposition on the part of the Government. There can be no objection to an inquiry when conducted on equal and impartial principles, and we confidently hope that in the appointment of the Committee a selection has been made of men whose minds are unbiassed on dile subject, rather than of those whose feelings have been so strongly expressed as almost to preclude sober and unprejudiced in quiry. It is a question of so much importance not to the church of Scotland only but also to the church of England, that the inquiry ought to be watched by the house and the government with the most jealous care. There is a strong feeling on the subject in some parts of Scotland, and the members who promote the inquiry seem so imbued with it, that great care ought to be taken not to permit the adoption of measures which, though they would suit their views, would endanger the usefulness and respect ability of the 'lurch. If the inquiry relates to abuses sok y we cordially concur in it, but if it is i stituted with a view to draw up a report in favour of popular election, and the total abolition of patronage, we can only regard it as an attempt, which, if successful, would lead to the most dangerous consequences, and in a few years the people of Scotland would be the first to admit the fact. The chief object which the advocates of the measure profess, is the appointment of clergymen more suitable to the views, and more useful to the people than at present. If they could make out that the plan would lead to such a result, all impartial men must side with them. Judging from experience, however, and from the usual workings of the human mind, we would predict a different result. It cannot be denied that some of the most use ful men and the brightest ornaments of the Church of Scotland have been any thing but popular at first. Dr. CHALMERS is a remark able instance. ROBERTSON and BLAIR never were popular preachers. The late Dr. INGLIS, who was at the head of the Church for nineteen or twenty years, and who was admitted by both parties to be a man not only of the first talents, but one of the most useful in promoting the best interests of the Church, never would have been admitted as a clergyman by a promiscuous popular assembly ; and a hundred other in. stances might be given in proof of a fact which all but the prejudiced admit. But independently of the usefulness of the clergyman, we call on the advocates of the change to con sider calmly what good would follow from popu lar election. 'Would it prevent divisions in parishes? Would it abate secession ? Would it encourage learning ? Above all, would it attract into the bosom of the church men of high cha racter and independent feelings ? Reason and experience decide the contrary way. Where have there been more divisions and quarrels than among the seceders, who have had popular elec tion to their hearts' content? Though differing on no essential point of doctrine, and agreeing in their detestation of patronage, they have split into sects without number. One candidate is the favourite of one party and the abhorrence of the other. A canvass takes place—the passion s of the parties are mutually inflamed by collision, and the defeated party, rather than submit, se cede and have the clergyman of their choice. No church yet kept down secession, so long as the church of Rome ; but it was not by the abolition of patronage ; it was by the inquisition, and the most atrocious persecutions and cru elty. In opposing any violent change in the present system, we are not in fluenced by a partiality to either party, but solely by a regard to an e stablishment which has now stood the test of 1 50 years , and is admitted on all hands to be one of the most efficient in promoting education, good order, and morality. The friends of virtue and religion will be cau tious in touching such a fabric with rash hands -,,,--they will inquire into its abuses, but they will not destroy it for the purpose of substituting an other of doubtful expediency. In many instances these abuses have been great, but what human institution is perfect ? In discussing this question in Scotland, the parties appear to Bill h ti a lo v aps e le i e brought t uhge effect of ff t et ohte v of th ie e w o Aristocracy Reform ne a venßdry Bill. it .h impor tanteTGhoa vernment in miotrhefy e o immediate cont a ct w ith th e t w h i e s h community, oobt in the t support hey m must s t opefopthlee, great and part if they pay ttoo m tthh o ee r i e r g a wr t e t ia e s tnhetesi wishes. 1 D I u t om h a ho t r nobleman,they ofl hl livings have nwhiehtChoeesrpstaroreisdleyonntse THIS DAY AT ONE 0 CLOCK Peruvian Bonds 224 3 2 Ditto Account Portuguese Bonds 71% Ditto Account 71% ' Ditto New Bonds 71% 2 14 Ditto Acconnt...7l4 24 1% Prussian Bonds lO2 Ditto Bowls, 1822 lO3 IRussian Bonds, 1822 1074 Ditto Account lO7 Ditto 111 , 106,k* S pan i s h Bonds, 182 i 324 1 Ditto Acc. 1 32 %34 1 4 Ditto Bonds, • ,- 23 Ditto Account 3O French Rentes, sp. c. —f —c. 1---- Exchange —f — C . 1---S per cent —f _ e . , -- 'Exchange —f .., ; Dutch, 21 p. c. 4 914 70,4 , Ditto Account 00 49% 1 Ditto, sp. c Ditto Account 96% 64N 29 9% 8 S 4 91( 25 in Scotland, has begun to act on this principle, and now presents, not the nominee of some powerful freeholder, but the candidate most con genial to the more respectable part of the pa rishioners. The Crown must do the same, and, probably, in a short time, the more defective and objectionable parts of the system will be so altered as to suit the wishes of the best friends of the Church. The only news in the German Papers received to-day is that the number of arrests in Prussia is on the increase—no less than sixty students having been recently put into confinement. This plainly indicates the progress of liberalism in Germany, notwithstanding the efforts of des- P • otis to the contrary. The cause of freedom -n and justice must ultimately prevail, however slowly. VIENNA, FEB. 17.—Five per Cent.

Pleased, amazed, I hail with glee Thy gay Budget, Ingilby, Shrewder thou than Billy Pitt art, Or that Nick of Nicks, Vansittart, For their Budgets made us weep, Set their hearers fast asleep, Left them sad and thoughtful after— Thine, splits all their sides with laughter. Keep it up, then, 'tis a rare one, And (what's better still) a fair one; For since to our Church 'tis given To tax, cent. per cent., e'en Heaven, Why should'st thou not just as well Tax at equal ratio, Hell ? Stick to't, then, but on our backs Clap another useful tax ; Clap a tax on nonsense, man — Tax the metaphors of Dan, The bright tropes of lawyer Sheil, And the sounding phrase of Peel ; If old Cobbett will give vent, Let him pay for't, cent. per cent.; If St. Andrew will hold forth, Tax his sermons at their worth; If my Lord of Londonderry Will insist on being merry, Let his jokes, by no means few, Tend to aid the revenue I Think of this sagacious scheme ; 'Tis no frantic poet's dream, But a scheme, albeit expensive, So exceeding comprehensive, That 'twill soon redeem our crosses, And repair the nation's losses; For a Nonsense-tax will fall, More or less, on great and small, Touching most the pockets shy Of our sage Nobility.

FALKLAND ISLANDS.-Copy of a letter from Captain James Nielson, of the brig Swallow, dated the 15th inst., addressed to the Secretary of Lloyd's : _ _ . " According to your desire I send you such information as I am possessed of respecting the massacre at Falkland Island : Spoke the Susan Ann, cutter, on a sealing voyage, which left the above islands on the 10th of December, 1833 ; her com mander informed me that a number of gentlemen were landed from his Majesty's ship Clio to take possession of the Falkland Islands, and that on the 26th of August, at 10 o'clock, a.m., were murdered by a few old residents, principally Spaniards, although headed by two Englishmen, one of whom was known to Captain Fergusson, and owned to the deed committed, and immediately fled into the interior with the others. After the murder their intention was to take possession of a small vessel stationed a short distance from the place. Fortunately she had sailed a few hours before, otherwise, in all probability, more mischief might have been committed. Captain Fergus son took from Barkley Sound two women and three children, and landed them on Saunders' Island, until his Majesty's ship Clio arrived, which ship had been looked for for some time. The Charente, Cormack, from Villa Nova, De Portenao, sent into Lisbon, has been condemned by the Prize Court. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. The only arrival this morning of any consequence is the Lisbon mail, by the Seaflower, sailed on the 16th inst., and from Oporto on the 19th inst. The information by. the above conveyance was anticipated yesterday by express, and further details have been published this morning, by which it appears that both armies continue in the same positions, but Santarem was expected to be attacked. We have several arrivals from the East Indies ; they are of old dates, except from Bombay. Consols which left off yesterday at 9014 for the Ae count opened this morning at 9014. This improve ment may be attributed to the great majority ministers had in the House of Commons last night, on the motion of Sir W. Ingilby, to take off the duty on malt. The express from Paris is not of importance ; it only relates to the proceedings in the Chamber of Deputies, in the project of a law for the suppression of political associations. It is settling day in the Foreign Market ; Spanish 32 ; Portuguese 71 4;. HALF-PAST ONE. Consols have been steady during most part of the morning at 90f f for Account, with little doing. In the Foreign Market they are chiefly occupied in arrang ing their differences; at present we do not hear of any failures. Yesterday a failure took place, but not of any consequence. Spanish 32 to ;Portuguese 714 T L .1. IREE 0' CLOCK. Consols for the Account, 901 4. The Solicitor-General will leave town to-tight or to-morrow morning for the purpose of canvassing his constituents. He is under no apprehension of not being returned. Lord Seymour, eldest son of the Duke of Somerset, on his marriage with Miss Sheridan, resigned, on behalf of her ladyship, the pension which had been granted to her on the English civil list. On Captain Glascock, R.N., being presented at the King's levee on Wednesday, he was asked how long he had been in the Douro. The answer given was twelve months, upon which his Majesty was heard most graciously to remark that no one could have behaved better. Such an observation from his Sovereign, and one. of his own pro ' fession, must have been highly gratifying to the feelings of the gallant officer, after the arduous and perplexing duties which, for so long a period, he was called upon to perform, amidst the cross fire and conflicting interests of the two Portuguese belligerents.

Yesterday morning, as Capes, the beadle of St. Pancras, was passing by Mornington Crescent, near the turnpike in Mr. Rhodes's fields, Camden Town, he was called by two men who pointed his attention to a child lying behind the turnpike. The body was that of a full-grown female child wrapped up in a piece of plum coloured cloth, saturated with blood. The throat was cut from ear to ear, and the wound seemed to be recent. Th, infant was carried to St. Pancras workhouse. Every inquiry was made to trace the murderer but no clue ha, yet been discovered. COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.
