We insert a letter from a correspondent, who calls himself an Italian refugee ; but the chief interest, we confess, • which ho has excited in us, is for - a fellow-passenger of his late com pulsory flight from Lisbon, the illustrious, magnanimous, ill-requited, long-suffering, and now dying sage and hero, Romero Al puente, cruelly driven within these few weeks from Portugal, whither he had just attended an only niece, who from her youth had nursed hia infirmities—but now, in the last stage of an in curable disorder, sought with him at the threshold of their miserable country, the refuge of a com mon grave. Romero Alpuente is ox the verge of 90 ; and through . this preternatural term of existence has borne a name the most unimpeachable for public and private honour. When he sat many years ago as Chief Judge or Fiscal of the Criminal Court at Madrid, a woman of high rank, an adultress and a murderess, was brought before this venerable Judge. She had instigated her paramour to the murder of her husband. The evidence was conclusive, and the sentence rested with the Court. The numerous and affluent connexions of the culprit beset the magistrate with persuasions, threats, and unceasing impor tunities for mercy. The infamous and all powerful Godoy, too, was a cousin of the guilty woman. This personage offered Alpuente, be sides 40,0001. sterling in money, the highest and most lucrative patronage under the monarchy, if he would but spare her life ;—with a denun ciation of the fiercest enmity if he refused it. But the intrepid and virtuous Judge had a pre rogative which, by usage, was held too sacred for the minion of despotism to contend with. He signed the warrant, and the murderess was led to execution. From that hour open war existed be tween B omero Alpuente and the Court of Madrid. He was throughout the whole series ofrevolutions, from 1808 to 1823, a stern patriot, never flinching, esteemed, honoured, and revered for spotless in tegrity, by all enlightened Spaniards. Were the patriarch now but to show himself on his native soil, the wasted and fleshless form would rally round it the whole constitutional spirit of the nation. But the persecuted old man will never again rouse an assembly of Patriots by his elo quence, or guide them by his genius. He went to Portugal in a state of weal7iess, aggravated by every want that could pinch and oppress old age in its extremity. He was expelled from it without remorse or mercy. Ferdinand's Minis ter was in earnest,—those of Portugal were not : no English authority, or humanity, or feeling for Spanish interests, individual or national, inter posed to save this poor old man. By his departure to Portugal, in hopes of mi tigating under a milder climate bodily sufferings far more painful to him than his own, he had forfeited the pittance hitherto allowed him, in common with other Spaniards, by the British Government. Since his return, the Spanish Committee, out of scanty and much-burdened funds, have granted to him—conjointly with a female—a born and virtuous lady—sick beyond the reach of medicine, but not of charity, the last of his race—ll. per month ! We must end this heart-wounding relation. Romero Alpuente is in London, on that bed which grief makes a death-bed, but famine a bed of agony. There are in England bold and honest judges, who would have felt with Alpuente, when riches or worldly ruin were the alternatives offered to him, and who now can feel for a brother Magistrate, not unworthy their generous admiration, but at his last hour capable of benefit only from their tenderness and compassion. While a certain • Spanish officer, who suflers his wife to sing iu public and for hire, gained by a single concert ! within this fortnight at least 1,0001. sterling, to which some very generous persons contributed from a belief that they were assisting the great body of the exiled patriots, one of the bravest and noblest among them starves, at 90 years of age !

The Speaker took the Chair this evenirg at 4 o'clock. A petition was presented from the Dissenters of Middle wich, for the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts. Mr. N. COLBORN presented a similar petition from a town in the, county of Hertford. Mr. DICKINS presented a similar petition from Chard. Mr. BYNG presented a similar petition from Chaseside. Mr. BYNG also presented a petition from the Protes tant Dissenters of South-place, Finsbury, for the repeal cf the Test Acts, and for Catholic Emancipation. Mr. HUME presented a petition from Anstruther, against the burning of Hindoo widows. Mr. PYM moved for a return of the number of Fire Insurance Duties paid, in the year ending Jan. 1827, with the amount paid by each Insurance Company. CORPORATION AND TEST ACTS. Mr. J. SMITH presented a petition from certain Dissen ters in Essex, for the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts. A similar petition was presented from a congrega tion in Manchester by Lord STANLEY. Lord J. STEWART presented similar petitions front Cardiff and Swansea. Mr. LYTTLETON presented a similar petition from Worcester, and observed, that he could see no object in con tinuing a grievance which, though not practical, was nut the less a grievance, and the House testified their opinion as to the little necessity which existed for these laws by constantly passing Acts of Indemnity. Sir J. NEWPORT said, that the want of Churches was one of the grievances which had diminished the number of Protestants in Ireland. In the parish to which the petition alluded, there had been a falling off of above 140 protes testants within a very short period. Lord MILTON said the case now before the Houses was not at all peculiar, it was a part of the system. The acts of Ecclesiastical corruption, which were too gross for the English Government, were usually perpetrated in Ireland. Mr. GOULBURN defended the conduct of the present Irish Government with respect to Ecclesiastical Benefices. Every effort was made to diminish the number of non-re sident clergymen, and to abolish pluralities. Mr. CALCRAFT thought the Test Acts a great prac tical grievance, inasmuch, as insult was a practical grievance. Whenever the question should be brought be fore the House, he would give a motio❑ for repeal his de cided support. Mr. HUME regretted to find that this important ques tion was not to be brought forward this Session. The First Lord of the Treasury said, he would oppose the re peal of those laws, but that was the very reason, he (Mr. Hume), if it depended on him, would have brought the case forward, and if the laws were not repealed, during the present Session, it was very possible they might, the next Session of Parliament. Lord ALTHORP declared himself to be a decided op ponent to the Test Acts which he characterised'as a hard. ship, if possible more galling to a consciertious member of the Church of England, than to a Dissenter. He also ex pressed his regret that the subject was not to be brought under consideration during the present session. Mr. BROUGHAM agreed with the Member from Wareham (Mr. Calcraft) and his Noble Friend (Lord Althorp) that the Test Act was a great practical grievance, nothing could be more impolitic or unjust than to exclude a great number of most loyal, industrious and intelligent persons from office, in consequence of the opinions they entertained on religious subjects. Feeling strongly, as he (Mr. Brougham) did, on this subject, he should give his support to any motion for the repeal of those laws, when he was assured that such a motion was brought forward with proper views; but he did not regret that the discussion of the claims of the Dissenters was postponed until the next Session. The Dissenters themselves, after a long deliberation, had agreed not to press their claims this Session, and, in so doing, had evinced equal disinterestedness and discretion. No Hon. Member therefore had a right to find find fault with the course the Dissenters had adopted, for they ought to be allowed credit for knowing what was their own interest, as well as any Hon. Gentleman who found fault with them. In his (Mr. Brougham's) opinion the Dissenters would greatly promote the success of their cause by postponing the discussion of their claims until the next Session ; and he could not help thinking that the advice now given to the Dissenters by their friends, was too like that given lately to the Roman Catholics by their enemies, Mr. CALCRAFT explained. The opinion of the Dis senters had been given, and he found no fault with their their decision, though he differed as to its expedieney ; and, for his part, he felt so strongly on the subject, that he could not conceive any occasion when a motion for re peal should be bronght forward, that he would not sup port it.—(Hear, hear.)

WROTTESLEY rose to give notice that, on the 7th June, he would bring forward a motion for the produc tion of a Circular from the Bank of England, which he took it for granted every Member of that House had seen. Mr. MANNING (the Bank Director) said, that, per haps, he might prevent the necessity of the Ho nourable Baronet's motion, as he could assure the HMV(' that there was not the slightest foundation for the statement that the Circular to which the Hon. Baronet alluded had emanated from the Bank of England. They had heard of such a Circular, but they knew nothing of it.—(Hear.) Sir JOHN WROTTESLEY said that the explanation which the Honourable Bank Director had given, was by no means satisfactory to him. If the Circular had not been issued by direction of the Gover nors of the Bank of England, he had reason to believe that it was issued by some person connected with the Bank. He should therefore allow his notice to stand for . the day he had named. Mr. PEARSON (a Bank Director) was about to make some observations in reply, but was called to order by, The SPEAKER, who said there was no question be fore the House, the Hon. Baronet's motion having been *geed to. [Left speaking.] Edward G. Wakefield was left addressing the House on the nature of the evidence he would forward to substan tiate his case. The conclusion will be given in a SECON EDITIO14;• Coststisstotaa—That is a matter of no aignification they ought to be delivered up, in whatever language they may be.

The COURT, considering that it was an easy thing to throw the blame upon an absent person, held that the in solvent was responsible for the acts of his attorney, and sentenced him to be confined within the walls of the prison for five calendar to mills, for patting his creditor to vexatious expenses. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARLBOROUGHeSTREET.—WaIbourn, theteacTer of dancing, better known under the title of Dusty Bob, appeared yesterday at this office as complainant against two persons of the name of George King and Peter Howes, for creating a disturbance in Mr. D. Bob's ball or dancing room, No. 17, Euston-crescent, on the preceding night. It appeared that R splendid dress ball was appointed to be held at the above time and place, fo admission to which two shillings for gentlemen, and one s ng for ladies -were demanded. In consequence, between seventy and eighty were assembled at the hour of half-past eleven o'clock OR Monday night, when the unfortunate Peter and George, accompanied by a lady, arrived, and the fracas which now formed the matter of investigation took place. According to the complainant, the three persons alluded to had ob tained regular tickets, but the defendants were objection able, as he considered, from their coming, with malice afore-thought, to kick up a dust in his party, and he hope(' their Worships would sift the matter thoroughly. He had reasons also to believe the lady to be of a caste not suf ficiently qualified to be heaped upon his pasty. He there fore refused them admission; the consequence was that e battle ensued, which terminated by Peter and George, and their fair companion, being danced off to the watch. house. The defendants said that they had fairly paid their money for their tickets, and therefore considered therns&, , , e3 entitled to admission. As regarded the objection raised by Mr. Walbourn, they could, perhaps, afford sonic explana tion. The truth of the matter was, that one of them (George King) paid 80 guineas to the complainant, for which he agreed to teach him the art of standing upon one toe, the dustman's jig, &c., and was to have three years' tuition. Unfortunately Mr. Walbourn found his pecuniary means not to keep pace with his toes, and was compelled to take the benefit of the Act for the relief of Insolvent Debtors', leaving Mr. King's education in an unfinished state, having received only three months instruction instead of the same number of years. The complainant had since refused to complete his engagement, and hence arose the bye be lieved they ill-blood between the parties. As regarded the fair alluded to, he (Mr. King) could bring forward tb.- e most unanswerable tim )a se instestimonialsinsinuation onf that her respectability, bad ieers made and complainant against her, arose entirely front jealousy. The Magistrate, having heard all parties, said he con sidered the complainant had not the power of refusing to admit the party, after having paid for the tickets of, admis sion, and dismissed the complaint. UNION-HALL.—Yesterday, an elderly female, named Afeirguret Trout, was brought before the sitting Ma gistrate, Ai. SWABZY, Esq., charged with committing so violent an outrage on her husband that his life is de epaired of. From the evidence of a roman named Susannah Smit: who is a lodger in the same house with the prisoner as,,T, her husband in Kent -street, it appeared that on the v-e -ceding night she was awakened by hearing a consicluable noise in the room immediately over her, which was in habited by the female at the bar and her husband. The voice of the latter she distinctly heard calling out, " Fors God's sake do not murder me, you have stabbed me." Witness, who is a single woman, Was so much terrified that she was rendered incapable of proceeding up stairs to see what was the matter. The noise continuing, and the cries of the man for help being incessant, witness at length. threw up her window, and called aloud for assistance. After having communicated to the watchman the disturb ance, the prisoner was heard to leave the room in which her husband was lying ; and while on the stair-case to nx... claim, "D— you, I have ham-stringed you, and there you may lie," while the former was imploring her to come to his assistance, saying that she had cot him, and that he should bleed to death if she did not stop the wounds which she had inflicted. The prisoner, however, regard less of what had occurred, vocifer.ted that she should not help him; adding, that the next time she would cut his windpipe, and put an end to his noise far ever. ti t his time the watchman got into the house, and on proceeding up stairs to the second floor, he observed the 'unfortunate man lying on the bed, with blood flowing profusely from a wound in his throat, and also from a w,-,,und near the calf of his leg. He stated that his wife had inflicted them both with a case-knife, which was subseqneutly found near the bed-side, on the floor, covered with blood. The ',wounded man was c iuveyed to ono of the Borough Hospitals. and prisoner was secured and taken to the watch-house, from whence she was brought up to this office. Ham mond, the officer who apprehended her, produced a certie fixate from the Hospital, describing that the prisoner's hos e band was considered in a dangerous state. The prisoner was therefore remanded until the fate of her husband is. known ; and the Magistrate directed that in the event of the man's death the officers ;I the parish in which the out-. rage was committed should be informed of it, in order that the circumstances should undergo an investigation before a, Coroner's jury. _ . The prisoner was described as a woman of the most vio lent temper ; that she and her husband were in the ha. 141 of quarrelling ; and that on the night in question, kieiT irritated with one another while in bed, the tonics out, and in the heat of the moment seized a dap- _ knif. , , n, inflicted the d es p era t e woun d s a b ove desctib-,:d I . the thr " o 7 t, and on the leg of her husband. LOSS OF TIIIRTEP_S LIVES ON THE F,,IIANNON. Twenty-five persons embarked iu a sail-boat, near Beagh Castle, in this river, on Wednesday, to collect sea-weed in the neighbouring islands, for the purpose of manure. When heavily laden, and about to put off, several of those oa board took alarm at the angry aspect of the waves, which, ruffled by the tempest, lashed the surrounding shore with unsparing fury. An all-wise Providence prompted the idea of danger; they disembarked, and left their ill-fated com panions (eleven men and two women) with a determina tion to encounter the passage home. The frail vessel, way so overloaded by the anxiety or avarice of the owner, t o secure a large cargo, that she absolutely kundered, in the coming tide, which, rushing Eke a torrent, overwhelmed her in an instant, within a few yards of land, leaving g wild blank, diversified only by the evanescent prospect of thirteen human beings struggling between gilt world and the next. The agonising cries or the wretched sufferers ' were hurried on the blast towards shore, where their dis tracted friends, unable to afford assistance, gazed intently on the spectacle of life and doe,Via. But the airiest intole rable suspense existed Inc a moment only—idle was the contest of weak mortality—when an immense surge choked the last effort of expiring nature. In the space of fifteen minutes, their bodies, borne on the bosom of the rulleu waves, rolled slowly and I;eavil' to the nearest shore, where the receding watel - a lift them without a spark of life, t be vainly shaped in th e f ond embrace of despairing friends andknclred, whose bitter cries not even the howling blast cpuld smother. _ This deplorable record of calamity has plunged many families into the depth of sorrow and distress; in one in stance, nine children have become destitute orphans.
