leage, full half of it in swizzle.--(44 laugh.)—He would also give anotiver reason why the House should listen fa- Aourably to the prayer of this petition. On the 29th of June, 11316, the House resolved to address the Prince Re gent for the erection of a national monument in honour of the officers and soldiers who had fought at the great vic tory of Waterloo ; and on the .nth of June the Prince Regent replied to that address by stating that he would give such directions as the House required. Now, the only monument of that victory which had been yet erected was Waterloo-bridge. Now the company which had erected that bridge had no funds to make these improve ments, nor bad the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. whose funds for some time were fomstulled. The expense would not exceed 120,0001. ; and be trusted that the House would see the necessity of facilitating an opening to the north of the metropolis, which would conduce at once to the ornament of the town and to the health of its inha bitant.. Sir JAMES GRAHAM observed, that as the Noble Lord opposite had said the funds belonging to the Woods and Forests were forestalled for some tin - .e to come, he hoped that part of them were set aside for the repayment of the 250,0001. which had been taken from the sum set aside by the French Government for the indemnification of British claimants. Seeing the Chancellor of the Ex chequer in his place, he would take that opportunity of asking him whether he was prepared to inform the House if he had formed any plan to appropriate that sum of 250,000/., which had been grossly misapplied, to the claimants upon it, who were yet unsatisfied ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER did not expect to have been questioned, upon a petition relating to Wateiloo-bridge, about arrangements which had sin ung out of the treaty of Paris. He would at present simply state, that he hoped in a short time to be able to submit a measure to Parliament for the purpose of carrying into effect some such measure as his Hon. Friend contemplated. Lord LOWTHER felt as strongly the necessity of re paying this sum as the Hon. Baronet ; and, as a proof of it, stated, that within the last few weeks they had paid on account of it a small sum into the Treasury. The petition was ordered to be printed, as was also a simllar petition from St. George's, Bloomsbury. Petitions against the Beer Bill were presented by Lord Retrace, from the Mayor and Corporation of Ches ter ;—by Mr. Blackburn, from Warrington ;—by Sir W. Rowley, from the Licensed Victuallers of Woodbridge and Beccles ;—by Sir M. W. Ridley, from those of New castle-upon-Tyne ;—by Colonel Lygon, from those of Dudley ;—by Mr. Batley, from Beverley; and by Mr. Dick, from Maldon. Lord BELGRAVZ presented a petition from the Mayor nd Corporation of Chester; and Mr. EGERTON from cer tain Justices of the county of Chester, against the Welsh Judicature 801. Lord J. HAY presented petitions from the Magistrates of Haddington, Cnpar, and a third place, against the im position of further duties en the importation of raw spirits. Petitions for the repeal of the Malt Tax were presented by Mr. Firm 'rom the neighbourhood of Chipping Nor ton ; and by Mr. CURTICIS from the Rape of Hastings, Rye, and other places in Sussex. Petitions against the East India Company Monopoly were presented by Mr. Maxwell from the county of Ren frew, by Sir R. Fergusson from Kincardine, by Sir M. S. Stewart, from Arran (referred to the East India Com mittee), and by Lord Milton, from Otley. Petitions for the abolition of the punishment of death for forgery were presented by Mr. Fane, from Henley-upon- Thames ; by Lord Milton, from Doncaster, Guisborough, and various other places in Yorkshire; and by Mr. De nison, from Godalming. Mr. LENNARD asked the Chancellor of the Exche quer at what time it was intended that the discussion on the law of forgery should take place? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that he coul , l not answer the question. As soon as his Right Hon. Friend the Secretary of State for the Home Department returned to the House, he would fix a day for that discussion. Lord MILTQN presented a petition for the abolition of negro slavery from Great Ouseburn, Green Hammer ton, ShPiield, Leeds, and ♦arious other places in the connty of Yolk. Lord MILTON presented a petition from Kirkby, ThurstanlAnd, and various other places in the West Riding of Yorkshire, praying for the removal of the assizes for the county of York from York to Wakefield. Mr. MAXWELL presented a petition from the county of Renfrew, and also from the faculty of procurators at -, praying for a cheaper administration of justice in Scotland. Mr. CLINTON presented a petition from the Licensed Victuallers of East Retford, against the Beer Bill. Sir J. NEWPORT presented a petition from certain letter-press printers in Waterford, praying that no addi tional tax might be imposed upon Irish newspapers. Mr. Alderman WAI CHNIAN had been requested to present to the House a petition, signed by 260 ship-owners of London, complaining of distress, and praying that the House would adopt measures to relieve them. He knew it was the fashion in that House to contend that the ship owners, so far from being distressed, were in a snore flearishing condition than at any former period. Ile thought, however, that the ship-owners mitt he the best judges of their own situation, and they declared that their interests had been materially injured by the measures 'which Government had for years past persevered in. At the present moment the number of British vessels employed was less by 674 than in 1826, and the diminution of ton nage since 1826 was 217.375. The generally distressed state of the country was proved by the lessened consumption of necessary articles. In the last year there was a dimi nution in the consumption of the undermentioned articles to the following extent---candles, 2,000,0001 b. ; soap, 5,000,0001 b. ; starch, 1.500,000:b. ; leather, 2,000.0001 h.; paper, 5,000,00016. ; and printed goode, 10,000,000 yards. In other articles which he would not enumerate, there had been a proportionate reduction. In his opinion, the sudden departure from the prohibitory system was an act almost of insanity. The line of policy now pursued struck at the vital parts of the naval power, which was the bulwark of England's glory. He might perhaps be an swered by an appeal to official returns ; but it was impos sible to form a correct opinion from these documents, for the difference between the real and official value of exports during the last three }ears was not less than 51,000,0001. The free trade system had now had a fair trial, and as it had proved ruinous, he thought that Ministers were bound to retrace their steps and revert to the ancient policy under which the country had flourished. Mr. SADLER could bear testimony to the sufferings of the ship-owners. On a close itvestigation of the sub ject he had found, that since 1828, there had been a dimi nution of shipping to the amount of thirty-five per cent. ; and, taking various contingent points into consideration, the reduction was not less than fifty per cent., as compared with former years. If he looked to the registered vessel , . in 1830, as compared with the registered vessels in 1828, he found a great declination both in the number of vessels registered, and in the amount of their tonnage. This was the case, notwithstanding the increase of population which was going on all the while. He knew that there had been an increase of British shipping, since 1828, of 1 per cent. inwards, anti of two per cent. outwards, in tonnage. But what, he asked, was the increase of tonnage amongst the foreign shipping ? In 1828, the foreign vessels en tered here amounted to 134,620,000 tons; in 1830, the amount bad advanced to 710,303,000 tons ; being an in crease of 20 per cent. He, therefore, wanted the reason to be pointed out to him, why, in British shipping, the increase should only have been between two and three per cent., while in foreign shipping, the increase was twenty per cent. The documents to which he referred, and which led him to this conclusion, were most important. He had avoided declaiming this night—•his figures declaimed foi him. Here was shown an increase of between two and three per cent. on our registered vessels, while there was an increase of 20 per cent. with reference to foreign ton nage. The ill effects of this free trade system, as it was called, were seen in every branch of industry which it touched. A year age they were told of the prosperity and activity that prevailed in the silk-manufacture. But what was the fact? In the year ending the sth of April, 1328, 4,828,0001 b. of raw silk were im ported ; in the year ending the sth of April, 1829, 4,133,0001 b. were imported; but in the year ending the Bth of April, 1830, the importation had fallen to 2,899,0921 n. Let this fact be heard, and let it be trea sured up in their minds, as a proof of the little dependence that was to be placed on statements hastily and inconsi derably made. Now, to return to the shipping interest : be could, from a single instance, lead gentlemen to ima gine what its general depression was. In 1826 there were, at Whitby, eight shipping establishments, which gave em ploynteat to several thousand hands ; but soon after the alteration was made in our system, several of the princi pals went out of business, and, within a few days, two others had given notice that they were about to decline carrying on the trade. The subject of the shipping in terest ought to be investigated before a Committee. Mr. LIDDELL bo* sony to the depressed state of the shipping int , . his opinion, all that the shipowners had t as likely to afford them relief, was an extension trade, and that could only be effected by a measure which ought to be conceded to the com mercial interests of the country—namely, a more free and direct trade to India. He hoped, however, that in the course of the Lenin she kihrb t Hen. Gentleman would state sotorthlng which would be soothing Ind eon siding to this deeply suffering interest: Mr. PROTIIEROE believed that the shipping interest looked entirely for relief to the reduction of taxes, and the reuriOval of East India monopoly. He wished that, in the tett year, Government would be able to give them some relief with respect to the first point. Mr. STEWART should htiVe gl'eat pleasure in support inr,- the petition whit% had just been presented by the Hon. Arderrnki opposite. He did not feel himself competent to triter so minutely into the subject as he had done, nor in deed would it be necessary for him to do so, as it was im possible to transact businese, or hold communication with respectable shin-OWiters, or to look at the state of the shirring now lying in the River Thames, without being convinced that the shipping interests of the country were reduced to the lowest possible ebb. In corroboration of what was stated by the Hon. Member opposite (Mr. Sadler) as to the state of the building establishments at Whitby, he would beg to read a short extract of a letter from that place to a most respectable ship-dinner in the City of London, from whom he received it a few days ago. It was written in the middle of last month, and was as follows There are four new ships lying here withottt purchasers ; four out of seven of the extensive ship-building establishments are laid down ; a l'easel has sailed with part of our population for America, and another goes in May." This, he had reason to believe, applied to most of the ahip-huilding establishments in the king dom, What might be the best remedy for this state of things, he certainly felt diffident in suggesting, but he en tertained strong doubts as to the expediency of the reci procity system now in force. Mr. SYKES said, there never was a time when the shipping interest Was so badly off as at present. Mr. lIBRRIES said, what he had to state should he directed exclusively to the shipping interest. Amongst the multifarious points touched upon by the lion. Member for Newark, he was astonished to hear him advert to the regulations of the timber trade as a grievance to the ship ping interest. Ile should have thought that any cautious advocate of the shipping interest would not bare said one word about the timber trade--(Hear, hear)-since it must stare every one in the face that this country annually paid a very large sum in taxation, on account of that trade, for the benefit of the shipping interest. The Hon. Member for Newark, in arguing this question, contented himself with taking two years, without touching at all on antece dent years, and looking to peculiar circumstances con. nected with the years be had selected. He would go back to the period of the peace in 1814, and he thought that nothing could be more fair than to take the average of each three years since that time. The Hon. Member for Newark had instituted a comparison between the ships em ployed at different periods ; but he (Mr. Herries) thought the simplest and most satisfactory way was to take the ave rage amount of tonnage of British vessels entered inwards in certain years. He would not embarrass the House by stating the outwaid tonnage. which generally corresponded pretty nearly in amount with the inward_ Taking the average amount of British tonnage entered inwards in the three years ending in 1814, we should find it to be 1,290,000 tons. The average of the next three years amounted to 1,470,000 tons ; and of the ensuing three years ending in 1820, to 1,787,560 tons. In the next three years-viz , 1821, 1822, and 1823 (and he called attention to this statement because it referred to a period just before the alteration in our system of commercial po licy), the average tonnage inwards amounted to 1,668,106 tons. The three years immediately ensuing embraced the period during which our present system of policy was in course of adoption-and in that the average was 1,964,182 tons, showing a considerable increase on the former pe riods. But in the last three years, ending with 1829, when the new system was m itured, and had come into full operation, the average tonnage amounted to 2,921,939 tons, infinitely exceeding the average of former years. Further, it was worthy of remark, that 1829, the last year of the three, exhibited by far the largest tonnage of the whole. In point of fact it was the largest ever known in the course of our commercial history; there had been nothing like it previously or subsequently to the peace-- nothing to be compared with 1829. In order to satisfy gentlemen of this, he should advert to the highest average he could find of the three consumptive years during the war. That was included in 1810, 1811, and 1812, when the average amount of British tonage entered inwards was 1,570,490 tons. But, as had been already stated, the average of the three last years amounted to 2,121,930 tons, being an increase over the highest ave rage previous to the adoption of the present system of 551,440 tons, or one-third. Thus it appeared that there had been a constant increase of British tonnage entering our ports subsequently to the adoption of a system which it was now said was the cause of decay and embarrassment to our shipping interests. With respect to foreign shipping the opponents of our commercial policy assumed that it nad been favoured to the direct injury of the home in terest : the inference was, that its activity and amount must have been increased. But what was the fact? The average of foreign tonnaee entering British ports during three years of the war when the amount was highest, was 793 000 tons, whereas in the last three years it only reached 698,000 tons. Thus there was a diminution of 100,000 tons in the annual average of foreign shipping, while we had an increase of 550,000 tons in that of British shipping entered inwards in the last three years, as compared with the three years previous to the adoption of the present system, when the amount of tonnage in wards (British and foreign) was highest. To exhibit the progress of foreign shipping in the three years pre ceding the alteration in our system, during the alteration and in the three years ensuing, he would state that in 1821, 1822, and 1823, the average of foreign tonnage entered inwards in our ports was 482,000 tons ; in the next three years there was a great increase, and the average amounted to 803,899 tow ; but during the last three years (the system having come into foil operation) the average fell to 698,900 tons. So that while British ton nage had greatly increased, the amount of foreign ton nage had decreased. How were these facts, plainly stated and (he pledged himself) extracted faithfully from official tables, reconcilable with the complaints now made? Our coasting trade exhibited the same activity as our foreign trade ; there had been a great increase generally from 1823 up to the present period. In 1523 the amount of tonnage was 7,899,000 ; in 1824, 8,101,000 ; in 1825, 8,300,000 ; in 1826, 8,316,000 ; 1827, 8,611,000 ; in 1828, 8,700,000 ; and in 1829, 8,932,000 tons. We divided our trade into that with the north and south of Europe, with America and our own colonies. Take the average of three years' trade with the north of Europe before and after the adoption of the present system, and see the result. The first period he should select comprized the years 1821, 1822, and 1823, when the tonnage of British vessels engaged in that trade and entered inwards was 514,135 tons, and o' foreign vessels 314,969 ; outward tonnage, British 711,959; foreign, 615,102. In 1826, 1827, and 1828, there was a great increase in the amount of tonnage en gagtd in this trade, but it was decidedly in favour of this country, the average amount of British tonnage inwards being 839,541, and of foreign 504,000 tons. Let it be recollected, too, that this trade involved the main point at issue, that the north of Europe was the field of battle where, according to the opponents of the existing system, we were to be annihilated in consequence of its operation. Was this so? Were there any symptoms of such an issue? No; the direct contrary was the fact. What was the number of ships that had passed the Sound in 1821, 1822, and 1823 (the golden period of those who objected to our present system ?) 8,954 ships passed the Sound during this time: of these, 2,977 were British, and 5,977 foreign vessels; the proportion of British being just 50 per cent. on the whole. In the next three years 11,581 vessels passed the Sound, British 4,152, foreign 7,429: our proportion having risen to 56 per cent. Here was a very considerable increase after the adoption of the new system. In the last three years (1827, 1E428, and 1829), the number of vessels passing the Sound was in all 13,241, and of these there were 4,772 British and 8,469 foreign ships, giving a little increase on 56 per cent. The Right Hon. Gentlethan proceeded to refer to a report drawn up in America, by Mr. Campbell, on the subject of commercial policy, in which it was stated the changes introduced in the British system were of a nature to strengthen her marine, to give a wider range to the com merce, and an additional impulse to the trade of the country. His object was to induce Membersito weigh well the proofs he had adduced of increased activity and employment in the branch of industry in question, which was assumed by many to be in a state of ruin, difficulty, and embarrassment. He might observe in passing, that the Hon. Member was quite mistaken with respect to the silk-trade, and as to the quantity of raw materials imported within a given time. The silk trade (he spoke upon the best authority) was one of those branches of industry at present in the least distressed situation. There was more activity, and a greater share of employment in it than in many other branches. He would only add, upon this point, that whenever the Hon. Member chose to give notice of a mo tion on the subject, he (Mr. Herries) should be ready to meet him upon it. The petitioners prayed the House to take their depressed situation into consideration, but no particular mode of relief was pointed out. If there was any prospect of Government being able to promote the interests of the petitioners, he would be the last man to object to taking the case into consideration ; but he con fessed he saw no such prospect. Mr. ROBINSON said the Right Hon. Gentleman bad einteavoureal to answer complaints as to the falling off in the amount of British tonnage built and registered, by a reference to the amount of British and foreign tonnage in wards. This was any thing rather than a satisfactory answer. The Right Hon. Gentleman talked of increased activity in the shipping interests,- - --a fact not denied by those who supported the petition, who argued that the ship-owners were placed in such unfavourable circum stances as to be obliged to work harder than ever to en deavour to sustain thtmseives. The amount of British registered tonnage had decreased ; in 1826 there were 24,625 vessels, the tonnage of which amounted t.t 2,635,644 tons; last year we had 23,453 vessels; ton nage, 2,517,000 ; so that here was a diminution of 1,172 vessels, and 118,644 tons in a space of three years. The petitioners coawlained that freights were so reduced as to deprive them of deriving advantage from their capital. Something should be done to remedy the evil ; if we could not depart from the system we had adopted (and, per haps we were pledged to it for some years at least), we might endeavour to reduce the materials used in ship building to a par with the prices paid for them by foreign builders, and adopt other measures to lessen the inequa lity that at present existed between British and foreign shipowners, so as to enable the former to compete suc cessfully with the latter: The Right lion. Gentleman had gone into an elaborate statement of figures,' but did not say one word of an intention to reduce the duties on the importation of timber, &c. Mr. BERRIES was proceeding to explain the manner in which the number of British ships and the amount of tonnage was apparently reduced, by the new system of registration adopted in 1825 or 1826, when an Act was passed directing the future omission of ships that had been previously improperly registered, when Sir J. NEWPORT rose to order, and deprecated fur ther discussion upon a petition to the hindrance of public business. Colonel WILSON wished to refer to a letter which lie had received from a respectable ship-owner of Hull, and some opposition being offered to the Hon. Member's doing so, he expressed a hope that the House would allow him to proceed, as he was going to asset t facts and not hearsays from the moon —(Laughter.) He was ready to produce the gentleman who wrote the letter at the bar to prove the statements contained it. He was sure the House would thank him when he was done—(A laugh)—for calling its attention to these statements. The Hon. Member pro ceeded to read from a letter extracts, describing at consi derable length the depressed state of the shipping interests in the north of England. Some of the details having been received with murmurs from several Hon. Gentlemen, the Hon. Member said, Gentlemen might call, "Oh ! Oh !" but these were facts, and came from a gentleman of undoubted veracity, who might have been in the trade for half a century for any thing he (Colonel Wilson) knew to the contrary.—(Laughter.) Mr. P. THOMSON regretted that a discussion respect ing one of the meet important interests of the c ountry should have been brought forward on the mere presenta tion of a petition. If, in spite of the figures on the table, and in spite of clear and authentic statements to the con trary, the worthy Alderman (Waithman) persisted in his opinions, let the worthy Alderman bring forward a sub stantive motion, and take the sense of the House upon the system which had been adopted with respect to the ship ping intererest. The petition was then read. Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN, in reply, complained of the dictatorial tone assumed by the Hon. Member for Dover, and said that the Right Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Herries) opposite, had, in all his arguments and state ments, lost sight of the increase of the population of the country during the last thirty years. It was a most im portant subject, and ought to be fully discussed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought that no Hon. Member present could doubt that the worthy Alderman and his supporters had had ample opportunity of discussing the subject, and that they had not let the opportunity escape them.—( Hear, hear.)—He hoped that now they should be allowed to proceed to the question which regarded the administration of justice, and which it had been arranged should certainly be brought on this evening. —(Hear, hear.) After a few words from Mr. SADLER. and Mr. FYLER respecting the state of the silk trade, the petition was or dered to be printed. ADJOURNMENT OF THE HOUSE. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved that the House, at its rising, do adjourn till Monday next. —Agreed to. ADMIRALTY COURT (IRELAND)—CONDUCT OF SIR JONAH 'BARRINGTON. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved that the Order of the Day for the House resolving itself into a Committee hereupon be read. Mr. O'CONNELL had been intrusted with a petition from Sir Jonah Barrington, praying that he might be heard at the bar. That petition, containing some extra neous matter, he had thought it his duty to send it back to Sir Jonah, in order that it might be amended. He had since received a communication from Sir Jonah, stat ing that he was seriously indisposed ; and one of Sir Jo nah's family was, he believed, in attendance, to certify that fact to the House. He thought it his duty to state these facts to the House, before they went into a Commit tee upon this subject. Lord F. L. GOWER had received a similar communi cation ; but from the importance of the subject, and the absence of the certificate of a physician, he thought it incumbent on the House not to delay going into Commit tee. At the same time he should wish to be guided, not by his own view, but by the sense of the House. The Order of the Day was then read, and the SPEAKER left the Chair. _ _ Lord F. L. GOWER, in bringing this subject before the committee, should first refer them to two documents which had long been in the hands of Hon. Members. Those documents contained the facts of the case, and the grounds of the proposition he was about to submit to them,—a proposition respecting the purity of the admi nistration of British justice, which, highly to the credit of the country, had hitherto been unassailed. The first of these documents was the eighteenth report of the com mission for judicial inquiry into the various courts of justice in Ireland, which report regarded the Admiralty Court of that country. That report of the Commissioners had, upon a motion of his, been referred to a select com mittee of the House, and the report of that committee was the second document to which he had referred. He need hardly say, that the duty he had performed on this occa sion was not a pleasant one ; nor need he remind the com mittee- that, fortunately for the character of the country. he had no precedents by which he could frame his pro ceeding.. He would begin by detalng, as briefly as he could, the facts which appeared in these documents re specting the conduct of Sir Jonah Barrington. The Noble Lord then entered into a detail of the cases in which the alleged malversation took place (the leading parti culars of which will be found in the subjoined resolutions.) Referring to the conduct of Mr. Pino, the registrar of the court, who had paid the money by the order of Sir Jonah, the Noble Lord observed, that though he did not see how he could redeem his character from imputation for having assented to orders which he must have known were wrong, and which he ought, in the first instance, to have set at defiance, yet it was but justice to him to state that he had since done as much as he could to redeem his error, by making the disclosures, and by the total absence of all equivocation with which he gave his evidence. The Noble Lord in conclusion observed, that the most un pleasant part of his duty remained—that of stating the course which he thought ought to he taken with respect to the conduct of this individual. He would read to the committee the resolutions, and if they should be adopted and reported to the House, it would be for the Pouse to take what course it should deem proper. The Noble Lord then read the following resolutions : " 1. Resolved, That, in consequence of an Address from the House of Common., his late Majesty was graciously pleased to is•ue a Commission, under the Great Seal, for examining the salaries, duties, and emoluments of the several officers, clerks, and ministers of justice, within that part of the United Kingdom called Ireland, and that the Commissioner., so appointed, have laid before Parliament eighteen several reports, the eighteenth of which relates to the High Court of Admiralty in Ireland. That, on the faith of such reports, divers acts of the Legislature have been passed and are now in force. " 2. That the office of Judge of the High Court of Admiralty in Ireland is an office of dignity and importance, on the impartial and uncorrupt execution of which the honour of the Cr',ovn and the protection of the rights and interests of many, both of his M a j es ty' s su bj ec t s , an d o f foreigners engaged in maritime pursuits, greatly depend. 6 ' 3. That by letters patent under the Great Seal of Ireland, bearing date the 23d of May, 1797, Doctor Bar rington, now Sir Jonah Barrington, was appointed to the said office of Judge of the High Court of Admiralty in Ireland, with power to depute and surrogate i n hi s p l ace one or more deputy or deputies, as oft en as h e s h ou ld t hi n k 6 t . " 4. That it i s stated in the aforesaid 18th report, that statements were made to the Commissioners upon oath, and confirmed by documents produced to the said Coin. missioners, by which it appeared that in two several de relict cases, which were adjudicated in the said High Court of Admiralty, the Judge wh o th en pres id e d , t h e aforesaid Sir Jonah Barrington, had appropriated to his own use certain portions of the proceeds. " 5. That it is stated in the aforesaid 18th report, that it appelred, from the oral and documentary evidence be fore the Commissioners, in the first of these cases, the Nancy derelict,' that Sir Jonah Barrington appropriated to his own use, out of the proceeds, 482/ Bs. Bd., and 2001., making together 682/. Bs. Bd., and never repaid any part of either, and that the registrar is a loser in that cause to the amount of 5461. 11s. 4d., including his poundage. "8. That it is stated, in the aforesaid 18th report, that, in the second of those cases, that of the Rabb-and derelict,' on the 12th of January, 1810, the sum of 2001. was paid by the Marshal into the registry, on account of the proceeds in this cause; and, on the same day, Sir Jonah Barrington, by an order in his own hand-writing, which was produced to the Commissioners, directed the Registrar to lodge that sum to his (the Judge's) credit in the bank of Sir William Gleadowe Newcomen, which he (the Registrar) accordingly did. That, subsequently, a petition having been presented to the Court by Mr. Henry Pyne Masters, one of the salvagers, Sir Jonah wrote an order at the font of it, bearing date the 29th day of May, 1810, directing the Registrar to pay to the petitioner a sum of 40/. ; and, at the same time, be wrote a note to Mr. Mas ter's, resquesting that he would not present the order for two months, at the close of which period Sir Jonah left Ire land, and never since returned. That Mr. Masters, after a considerable time (upwards of four years) finding fat be could not get his money, prepared a memorial, addressed to the Lord Lieutenant, stating the circumstances, and complaining of the conduct of the Judge ; and, going to the Registrar, he demanded payment of his money, otherwise he would immediately present the memotial which he held in his hand. That the Registrar, anxious, as he states, to screen the Judge, on the Bth day of July, 1814, paid Mr. Masters out of his own pocket, and produced to the Com missioners the receipt, and a letter of acknowledgment from Mr. Masters for his good conduct in the transaction. That under somewhat similar circumstances the Registrar paid a further sum of 9/. 12s. 9d. to Mr. John Why. cherly, another salvor, who came to Dublin to endeavour to get his money, so that, including his own fees in the cause, amounting to 15/., and his poundage on the net proceeds, amounting to 71. lOs., the Registrar states that there is actually due to him in this cause 721. 2s. 9d.; and further that, as the sum of 2001. was never repaid by the Judge, the loss of the balance between that sum, and the sum of 721. 2s. 9d. fell upon the unpaid salvagers. " 7. That it is stated, in the aforesaid 18th Report, that Sir Jonah Barrington having represented his inability to attempt a journey to Ireland, an extract from the mi nutes of the proceedings of the Commissioners was trans. spitted to him, containing every thing at that time de posed to, by which his character might be affected. That subsequently sundry communications were received from him, which, with the several letters addressed to him by the Commissioners in reply, are printed in the appendix to the aforesaid 18th Repot t. That asser tions of general denial, coot tined in these and subsequent letters, are the only contradiction or explanation of the foregoing facts, given by Sir Jonah to the Commissioners, which contradiction would have had much weight with the Commissioners hail the alleged facts been supported only by the parole testimony of the officer who stated them ; but that when the Commissioners found the hand writing of Sir Jonah Barrington himself supporting the statement of the witness, they could not avoid giving credit to his (the witness's) evidence. That the Conunissioners resumed the examination of the Registrar, and that the said Registrar, though aware that the Commissioners had been in communication with Sir Jonah Barrington, who might, if he had sworn falsely, have suggested means of contradicting him, persisted in his former evidence, and furnished other documents tending to confirm his testi mony, which he had subsequently found. " 8. That the said 18th report of the Commissioners, so founded on evidence taken on oath, and on documents, together with the depositions forwarded to the Commis sioners by Sir Jonah Barrington, and other papers con nected with the conduct of Sir Jonah Barrington in the discharge of his judicial functions, was, by order of the House, referred to a Select Committee in the last Session of Parliament. " 9. That the Select Committee, so appointed, did take into consideration tie matters so referred to them, and that Sir Jonah Barrington, having, in a letter to the Chief Se cretary of the Lord Lieutenant, expressed his wish to come over to this country to be examined, whenever a Com mittee should be appointed to consider the report of the Commissioners, the Committee did afford him that oppor tunity of meeting allegations which so seriously affected his character. " 10. That the Committee, after full investigation of the whole subject submitted to their inquiry, and after exa mination of witnesses, and of documentary evidence, came to a report, which has been laid on the table of this House from which report it appears that, on the whole, the Com mittee were of opinicn that Sir Jonah Barrington, asJudge of the High Court of Admiralty in Ireland, did, in the years 1805 and 1806, under colour of his official autho rity, apply to his own use two sums amounting to 5001. 9s. 2d. out of the proceeds of the derelict ship Nancy, then lodged in the hands of the registrar of that Court ; and that he did, in the year 1810, in a similar manner, apply to his own use the sum of 2001. out of the proceeds of the Redstrand derelict. " That it appeals to this Committee, that the opinion so expressed in the aforesaid report of the Se'ect Committee is folly warranted by the evidence, and is entitled to the con currence of this Committee. " That it is therefore, the opinion of this Committee, that Sir Jonah Barrington has been guilty of serious mal versation in the d•scharge of his office of Judge of the High Court of Admiralty, and that it is unfit, and would be of bad example, that he should continue to hold the said office." The resolutions were then put seriatim from the chair. After the first three had been put and agreed to, Mr. D. W. HARVEY suggested, that - as Sir J. Bar rington had expressed an intention of presenting a petition to the House, praying to be heard by Counsel against those resolutions, which he had up to this moment been prevented from doing by illness, it might be better to have them printed, and to postpone them for a short time to give him the opportunity he desired. Lot d F. L. GOWER could have no objection to have the resolutions printed. After a few words from Mr. C. W. WYNN, Lord F. L. GOWER, Mr. OTONNILL, and Sir J. NISWPORT, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought that if a proper opportunity for defence had not been af forded before the Committee, Sir Jonah would be entitled to any reasonable indulgence before the resolutions were passed, but as he had alretoy had ample opportunity, he apprehended the best course would be t!) let the resolutions pass now, and when they should have been reported and printed, it would then be time to consider whether he should have any and what farther time fur defence allowed. Mr. R. GORDON expressed his surprise that no Member connected with Ireland had evinced any indigna tion at the kind of system which it appeared from the re port of the Committee had been carried on in Ireland. He owned be was astonished at a system of judicial ad ministration in any Court which could have prevented such malversation as this from having been discovered al most immediately. From the evidence of Mr. Pino, it appeared, that at the time this money was paid out it was well known to him that it was for the use of the Judge of the Court; and he added, that it was inserted in the ac count in large letters that it was taken out for the use of his Majesty, but that this was done as a sneer at the use to which it was to be applied,—not for his Majesty's use, but for that of the Judge. The whole of the case evinced a mode of Government of Ireland at which he owned he was astonished, and still more astonished that it had not excited the remark of any Member connected with that country. Mr. S. RICE denied that any inference as to the gene ral government of Ireland, or its judicial administration, could be fairly drawn from the case, which ought to be considered coolly and calmly on its own merits, without making it a national case. Mr. R. GORDON observed that that the Hon. Mem ber spoke as if no British Member had a right to inter fere or offer an opinion on questions affecting Ireland, hut he must in.ist on his right, and he would repeat his sur prise that no Irish Member had expressed his indignation at what had appea ed in the report of this matter. Mr. S. RICE said that so far from objecting to the interference of English Members in Irish questions, there was nothing which he more desired, for there was nothing more calculated to benefit the country. The ATTORNEY -GENERAL said, that the Select c o mmittee had come to a conclusion on this case, not so much on the evidence of the Registrar as on the admission of Sir Jonah Barrington himself. With respect to time, be was disposed to consent to any time which could be reasonably required ; but it would be necessary that the resolutions should, in the first instance, be reported and printed. Lord F. L. GOWER, said, that to avoid any imputa tion on himself, he felt it necessary to state that he was placed in a situation of some difficulty with respect to this case. It was his duty to submit it to the House; but he felt unwilling to aggravate the charge against the un fortunate individual—for unfortunate he must call any man who had such a charge made against his character— by any asperity of remark.—(Hear, hear.)—He was not in the situation of a person who had discovered the cir cumstances ; his duty was to lay that which was proved before the Committee calmly and dispassionately before the House, leaving it to the House to deal with it as it should think proper. I► The other resolutions were agreed to, and the report was ordered to he received on Alonday. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY. Sir A. GRANT brought up the resolutions of the Com mittee of Supply, which were read and agreed to. USURY LAWS BILL. Mr. P. THOMSON moved, that the House do resolve itself into a Committee on the Usury Laws Bill. Mr. HEATHCOTE opposed the motion. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL observed, that though the Usury Laws had been made for the benefit of the bor rower, they were in effect injurious to him. It had been once the desire of our ancestors to fix the prices of all commodities ; but this erroneous policy had been wisely abandoned by modern legislation. He saw no reason why they should legislate for the use of money any more than for the use of land or any thing else. Why should they not limit the rent of a farm to so much per acre, or the price of mutton to so much per pound ?---(Hear, hear.) —Suppose a man wished to borrow 1,000/. to purchase a house, which rented 100/. per annum, why should not a man be permitted to lend him the money, receiving 75/. for that which would produce the borrower 100/. ? (Hear.)—Under the present law, a man might lay out 500/. in the purchase of furniture, and lend it at any rate ; but if he lent the same sum in money he could only take 5 per cent. This restriction rendered the situation of borrowers hard. If a person wished to borrow money without security, he would now have to pay from 5 to 7 per cent. more interest than if the Usury Laws were abo lished. If money were raised by annuities, which was the frequent mode in such cases, 12 and even 15 per cent. was paid ; and it was this system of annuities which hail ruined thousands.—(Hear.)—He saw no reason why money, like every thing else, should not be suffered to find its own level. Mr. SYKES supported the Bill. Sir C. WETHERELL was of opinion that great pub lic mischief would result from a repeal of the usury laws. This opinion was formed after a most attentive considera tion of the subject, in public disCussion and private lucu bration. There was one point in which the principle of the Bill was very objectionable. By the abolition of the usury laws, a person lending another a sum of money to employ it in trade, at a high interest, though he, in fact, ran away with a large share of the profits of the trade, would be himself exempt from responsibility under the bankrupt law. A man may advance 10,0001., for example, to a brewer, and take a security upon his buildings and stock-in-trade, receive 15 or 20 per cent. interest, and yet be free from liability to creditors. In respect to loans and incumbrances upon land, circumstances abso lutely prevented the owners, in many cases, from dispens ing with borrowing. One half of the entire rental of England was paid in the shape of interest on mortgages and incumbrances laid upon the land by the ancestors of the present owners, who must of necessity borrow, and who would be exposed to all the oppressions of such cre ditors as would take advantage of the fluctulitions in the value of money. He should like to learn from a person so skilled in questions at nisi pries as his Learned Ft iend (the Attorney-General), how interest was to be adjudi cated in a verdict fir damages in an action on a Bill of Exchange, if there was to be no such thing as a legal rate of interest. After the most mature and partial con sideration which he had given to the subject, he felt bound to oppose the principle of this Bill altogether, and he was convinced that no Bill could ever be fi amed upon such a principle that could be carried into force. He should op pose this Bill in every stage of its future progress. Lord MILTON argued in favour of the Bill. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL had been once as warm an advocate for the repeal of the usury laws as any Hon. Member of that House was at present, but ho had since changed his mind, and though he conceived that the usury laws required no revision, alteration, and amendment, lie was opposed altogether to their total repeal. He thought that they were productive of beneficial consequences in many instances, when the market-price of money hap pened to be higher than the legal rite of inter, st. After a few words from Lord Avrtroar and Mr. MAX WELL, the House divided upon going into the Committee, when the numbers were, For it . Against it The House resolved it,rlf into the said Committee ; the report was brought up, and ordered to be flu they considered on Monday next. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at a Quarter before Two o'clock until Monday next. THE GILMERTON MURDER. FURTHER - PARTICULARS. (From the North Briton of Wednesday.) Debbie, we hear, has offbred to peach. This we were quite prepared for. In the smithy at Green-end, as stated in our last, he attempted, in the presence of one Paterson, a labourer, and the smith, to represent the lad Thompson as the principal delin quent, and there can be little doubt, we should think, that the disposition to screen himself by inculpating his accomplice has not been lessened since he fell into the hands of the law. In renewing our inquiries and investigating into this most lamentable case, we have learned that the carters and the woman did not remain above two hours in the public-house near Grayfield-toll ; that they entered sometime after seven, and de parted between nine and ten o'clock, taking, as we formerly stated, the Craig's-road. When they entered the public-house, which is kept by one Pentland, the woman " lit her pipe at the ribs of the grate," in which was a fire, and one of the men saying that they were " gaup" (hungry), asked if they could get a herring. During the time they remained at Pentland's, it is alleged that they had only three gills of whiskey, for one of which the woman paid 3d. ; but Margaret Paterson, on her death-bed, said that they had four gills, and that in all she paid 10d. The people in Pentland's, however, say that she seemed to have got a dram before she came to this house, although she did not appear " in any way cut or intoxicated," but, on the contrary, " quite sensible." Whilst they remained in Pent land's the men treated her well, and there was nothing particu lar in the conduct or conversation towards her. o On leaving, they said to Pentland, that " they were going to give the woman a ride in their cart." From thi, statement several important conclusions appear to be deducible. In the first place, supposing the party to ha c left Pentland a little after nine o'clock, and connecting this with the fact, that Thompson's cart and horse reached Gilmerton some time after midnight, it follows that three hours were consumed in travelling over a distance of little more than two miles. Se condly, the Craig's-road, which is a cross-road connecting the Dalkeith and Newbattle-roads, is the only part of the way on which the crime could have been committed without detection, supposing the woman to have made any resistance, and to have cried out for help when she was assaulted, as it is probable she did, until she was rendered insensible by the maltreatment she , received ; for at the time when the party set out from Pentland's, and even much later, both the public roads are as much fre quented as at any period of the day ; whereas, the Craig's-road must then, like all bye-roads, have been comparatively, if not al together solitary. Thirdly, as the carters made no stop at any of the public-houses at Greenend, but passed through that village to Gilmerton, it seems pretty evident that the locus &ilea must havebeen somewhere on the Craig's-road, the only place where it could have been committed with any degree of safety, if indeed a locus can strictly speaking be applied to the crime which it is more than probable from the circumstances was consummated, in all its parts, in one or other of the carts in which the unhappy woman happeuedto be riding, w h en th e d ev il took possession of the wretches in whose company she was, and tempted them to per petrate two capital crimes at once, attended moreover with cir. cumstances shocking to humanity, and unprecedented even in the long black annals of human guilt and iniquity. Fourthly, we think it likely enough that the solitary nature of the first part of the road they had to pass along suggested to the ruffians the idea of rapus vel constupratis; and as one criminal act natu rally leads to another, the inhuman monsters followed up the first outrage by others still more horrible, which have been al ready severally indicated in another tongue. Lastly, some of the circumstances are nevertheless very peculiar, and not easy to be accounted for in a satisfactory manner. We have already enumerated the articles found by Dingwell in Thompson's cart, and afterwards claimed by Margaret Paterson as her pr perty. It is singular, however, that a bone, such as is used in the stays or corsets by none of the class of the deceased, was discovered on the Sunday morning by one Simpson, a mason, in Gilmer ton, on the top of the dyke or stone wall, close by the spot where Margaret Paterson had been found by Banbury and his compa nions, which bone was, on inspection, found to be covered over with blood, as also was a pair of scissars, found near the same place. It may serve to give some idea of thetotal absence of any thing like moral feeling in the Gilmerton carters generally, who, indeed, are nearly all of them of the same mark and likelihood, if we state, that they continue to treat this matter very lightly ; think ing that, because the two members of their fraternity, charged with this atrocious crime, were " the waur o' drink, they will not be held responsible for what they may have done under its influence. Indeed, they look upon it altogether as a drunken frolic, which can scarcely entail upon those concerned in it, any heavier visitor than a short period at hard labour in Bridewell ; and hence, while Dobbie and Thompson were confined in the lock.up house, the wife of the former came in front of the build. ing, and called out to her hopeful husband, who was at one of the windows, " keep up your heart, Robin, she was a - ' Deeper moral depravity than this it is scarcely pos sible even to imagine. A Sheriff's officer was out on Monday afternoon making in quiries respecting the tobacco box, which, as mentioned in our last, Margaret Paterson stated on her death-bed to have been in her possession when she went into the cart, after leaving Pent land's, and which, besides some tobacco, contained two pawn. broker's tickets; but we have not learned what success attended his inquiry...;. Mr. Pentland, itseems, did not observe the tobacco box, although, as already stated, he saw Margaret Paterson light her pipe at the fire when she first came in. We stated last week that a man named DREW, alias PENSER, had been apprehended in Bath, on suspi cion of being concerned in a burglary at Enfield, Middle sex, for which offence two of the parties were executed.— It appears that DaEW, after he had been confined in Bath gaol, endeavoured to make his escape, by breaking up part of his bedding, then attaching it together, and throwing it to the top of the court wall, where it fastened to the spikes. Having succeeded thus far, he drew himself to the top of the wall, and then let himself down on the other side, by the same means. Fortunately, however, he was soon missed by the turnkey, who immediately caused a search to be made, and in the course of a short time he was found secreted u nder Bailiwick New Bridge, partially immersed in water. He has since been conveyed to London.—Bath Chronicle.

This great sum is partly the fruit of the savings of his Majesty during the six years of his reign, and partly the produce of the sales of &mins which have been effected during the same period, but the validity of which sales is contested by the Committee of the Estates. The amount was gradually converted into gold, and put into tln cans, closely soldered up, each containing 5,000 dollars, all of which the Duke took with him. As the last resolution of the Duke, rela tive to the affairs of Brunswick, was taken on the 2d A this month, and it is understood that the time fixed for compliance was only four weeks, we may expect important events at the close of the presentmonth. Len - sic, /trim 24.—The fair promises well, part!y on account of the great number of Greeks and Asiatics who appear here for the first time, some of than with their own brokers, and partly on account of the large sums for which they have credit from foreign places.

The march of Saxon troops for a certain p u rpose is still enveloped in mystery. It is conjectured that should nutters come to extremities the cause of the march will soon he removed. As this march of our troops has been frequently announced without taking place, we do not believe that it will be t ffected on the 26th, as some per sons now affirm. lIIVISE DA RMSTADT. —The Suabian Mercury say', that Mijor-General the Prince of Wittgenstein, who is gene so St. Petersburgh to announce to the Russian Court , the death of the late Grand Duke, is also commissioned, on his return through Berlin, to ask the hand of the Princess Elizabeth, daughter of Prince William of Prussia (the King's brother), for the Hereditary Grand Duke Louis, born 1806. (Flom the Commercial Journal, St. Peter burgh, Apri111•) if - UKASE TO THE DIEXCLING SENATE. " The Minister of Finance hastepresented to us that va rious circumstances are observed, on an attentive con sideration of the manufactures and trade of the empires which prove on one aide the insufficiency of the duties on various articles for the protection of the national manu factures, and on the other the injury that arises from the prohibition to import several articles, the admission of which, on payment of a proportionable duty, would excite emulation in our own manufacturers ; approving theSe re presentations, we have given our sanction to a new table approved by the Council of the Empire, of articles, the im portation of which is to he again allowed, as well as of those the duties upon which are in some instances in creased, in others diminished. We transmit this table to the Scntve, commanding it to be carried into effect. (Signed) " NICHOLAS." " St. Petersbusgh, March 26 (April 7), Ib3o. The Commercial Journal add.; the following ob,cr vation.. " The changes in the tariffhave the following objects-- " 1. To reduce the number of prohibited articles as far as can be done without injury. " 2. To lessen the temptations to smuggling. " 3. To afford to our manufacturers (with sufficient protecting duties) new patterns, to make them sooner ac quainted with the improvement s of other countries, to ex cite their emulation, and in general to enlarge their idea.. " 4. To procure them a more extensive sale ; for if a small number of articles of luxury, which come into the empire by various means, must for the present be obtained for the capital from foreign countries, yet our manufac turers have the market of all Russia open to them; new, more elegant, and all articles for the fashions, must of course be longer in reaching the distant provinces. The notion of preventing luxury has not been taken into consideration, but at all events the Russian manufacturers will be able to supply the public with such superior articles on reason able terms. " 5. The duty on some articles is augmented, because, experience chews that our manufacturers could not other wise subsist ; the duties on oth ers are i ncrease d or dimi nished, in orer todo away with inequalities in the t a riff. Pecuniary advantage has not been sought, and as the changes relate only to the admission of prohibited articles, or t objects of small importance, it does not seem neces sary to make this ordinance known earlier.
