to the Lord-Lieutenant to delegate his power in case where the tit wence was so high as transportation. The CHAIRMAN read the clause which referred to this part. Mt. O'CONNELL 'would take the sense of the House when the report was brought up. The clause was then agreed to. Clause 16 was then read. Mr. STANLEY proposed, as an amendment, to strike out of the second part of this clause the words " or any member thereof." The intention of this amendment was, that every proceeding should be enforced by the whole Court, and nos by any one Member of it. Mr. O'CONNELL hoped this clause would not be allowed to remain so ambiguously worded as it was at pre sent. The Solicitor-General might understand the clause, but there were other Generals ho could not. According to tbis c wise. a person, though not living in a proclaimed district, might be summoned into one by a courtmartial, and be thus forced into a district where the Habeas Corpus was suspended; then if he refused to give evidence, he might he detained by the Court. Mr. STANLEY said that the operation of the susuen sion of the Habeas Cor ills was equally against any man who had committed any offence which rendered him liable to it, whether he were in the proclaimed district or not. It was ti•en moved a. an amendment, that after the words and it shall he lewfill," these words be inserted, " and they are hereby requited to swim.% any person whose evidence is t.qii red, as well on the part of the defence as of the prosecu ore." The anonitieent wag then agreed to. Mr. AGLI()NRY wished to knew whether the Judge- A vocate was to be c naideri d in the light of a part of the Court, or rnly a leg I adviser? Mr. STANLEY said, that ut der the Act, the Judge- Atik °cat, Wlllll4 lotite no power to is ue warrante. Mr. AGLIONHY thought it wool I be very advisab'e that he should take a part in the committals. The 16'h clause. with vet hal amendments. particularly one to exempt any person from twing examined tinder the Art who could not be lawfully .xamined tie ore other courts, ayes then ordered to stand pact of the Bill. The 17th clause, which enacts that any person liable to bii prosecuted within any proclaimed district for any offence against 27th George 111., 50th George 111 , Ist and 2tl William IV., and 2d and Sd William IV., or for any offence against the Act, may be tried by such conrtamartial as the Bill appoints; and which courts martial may sentence to transportation for life or for a term of not less than seven years ; but nut to impose the penalty of whipping. &c. Mr. O'CONNELL suggested that some provision should be introduced so as to make it quite clear that of. fences committed before the Bill was passed should not be prosecuted under it. Mr. STANLEY thought such a case already amply provided for by the Bill, but he had no objection to intro duce words agreeable to the Hon. and Learned Gentle man's suggestion. Finally words were introduced, ex etnptine all offences from being prosecuted under this Bill committed subsequent to its passing, and before any dis trict was nroelaiwed. Mr. RUTHVEN proposed an amendment, to prevent these courts from irflicticg any other corporeal punishment than whipping. Mr. WARBURTON thought that words like those suggested were proper, to make the Bill accord with the provisions of the Mutiny Act. Mr. STANLEY bad no other objection to the words, but that they implied the possibility of such tortures being now used as had formerly been employed. Mr. O'DWYER thought that some limitation was ne cessary. He recollected that four years ago a case of horrid cruelty occurred at a gaol in Dublin. Thumb-screws were applied ; bolts were put in the mouth. The evidence of what he stated was on the table of the House ; and the gaoler, who had for these cruelties been found unfit for his office, had teen made a stipendiary Magistrate of in a dis tant county. That showed the baneful ascendancy of faction in Ireland. . . After a short conversation, words were introduced at the suggestion of Mr. O'Connell, which would have the effect of Mr. Ruthven's amendment, exempting all persons convicted before these Courts from any punishment to which they would not be liable for the offences specified before this Act was passed. Mr. STANLEY brought forward the proviso of which be had given notice a few nights back. The addition was to this effect—" Provided also that nothing contained in this Act shall be deemed or taken to give to such courts martial any power or jurisdiction to try any person or per sons to be charged with printing, publishing, or circulating any libel, or with any combination or contederacy contrary to the provisions of the Act of the 27th Geo. 111., or with the prevention or obstruction of any person or persons in the act of enforcing aoy right or claim tinder the pro visions of the last-mentioned statute, unless such combina tion, confederacy, prevention, or obstruction shall be ac companied by force or threats; and all such offences as shall be unaccompanied by force or threats, shall remain triable according to the course of common law." Mr. RUTHVEN withdrew his amendment, and the proviso was agreed to. On the question that the clause, as amended, should stand part of the Bill, Mr. ROEBUCK proposed the addition of a proviso, requiring that the reasons for the judgments of the courtsmartial, whether on matters of fact or of law, should be entered on the minutes of the courts at the time of giving the judgment. Mr. STANLEY said, the proviso was liable to consi derable ohj ctions. Mr. ROEBUCK consented to withdraw it for the present. The clause was then agreed to. On the 18th elaume being read, Mr. O'CONNELL moved an amendment, limiting the power of arrest. His oti•ct was to prevent the exercise of this power by private soldiers or non- commissioned officers, except in the presence of magistrates, peace offi cers, or their own sup , rior officers. A desultory diseu-sion lollowed, in which the Solicitor General, Mr. O'Connell, Lord Althorp, Mr. Shell, Mr. C. Feigus , on, Mr. Stanley, Mr. Rutliven, Mr O'Dwy-r, Mr. O'Connor, &c. participated. Eventually, two amend ments, suggested by Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Fereusson, were propose by Mr. Stanley ; the one, after the words taus- to he apprehended and committed, any person who, within any such procb.itned district as aforesaid, shall he in the fields, rreet4, hiehways, or elsewhere out of bis or her dwe ling or place of abode, at any time from one hour after sunset until .unris.," to insert the words, "under suspicious cireutnstances ;" the other, after the words " nidy i.e tried," to insert the words, " unless dis charg-d, or held to hail by person+ an authorized." These aimndments, toeether with some others of a verbal nature, were aereed to; and the clause, so amended, was ordered t i stand p in nt the Bill. Tile SOLICITOR GENERAL observed, that the Committer 1141 i now c. me to rt. e of the most important clauses of toe B.ll—that which rtl trot to &foie:Jim) , visi s by the maostrates, or in vii tue or the r warrants, between sunset and sunrise, for the purpose of a-err .in ing the pres.nce or the absence of the inhabitants. It was allowed on all hands to be of the greatest imt.ortance that the inhabitants of any house in a proclaimed district, should be compelled to furnish the means of ascertaining whether they were at home or abroad ; and for that pur pose it had been supposed necessary to give the I%lagis- Crates, or the persons au horized by the Magistrates, the power of breaking and forcing an entrance into any house, under the circumstances in question.— (Hear, hear.) His Majesty's Government, however, were very anxious to mitive the severity of this enact ment, and to lessen the inconveniences which it might oc casion. —(Hear, hear.) They had, therefore, prepared an amendment, which he should have the honour to pro pose, and which they hoped would meet the approbation of all parties, and at the same time secure the object which the clause had in view, without rendering it necessary to break or force an entrance into any of the houses.—(Hear, hear.) It was proposed that, in the fiist instance, the Justice, or any person with warrant of justice, accom panied by a commissioned officer or chief constable, should go to the House, and require the male inhabitants to come forth, and thus enable the authorities to ascertain that they were not absent ; and that if, on the ground of illness, or on any other ground, the male inhabitants, above the age of fourteen, should refuse to come forth, the persons authorized should then have power to demand admission into the house, but should not have power to enter with out the leave of the inhabitants ; and that if they were not allowed to enter with such leave, then the male inha bitant or inhabitants should be deemed and takers to be absent, and should be subject to the operation of the Act. (Hear, hear.) Such was the substance of the proposed amendment; it would have the eff,ct of preserving every man's house as his castle; and none of the inconveniences or abuses anticipated by the Hon. and Learned Member for Dublin, an d other Hon. Members, could possibly ar i se . Mr. BERNAL then proceeded to read the clause, as amended. When he arrived at the word " inmates," Mr. O'CONNELL moved that they :should he called " by name." Lord ALTHORP objected to it, as through a mere mistake the object of the Bill might be defeated. 5-Ir. O'CONNELL—Yet you would make a mart liable to the punishment of a misdemeanor without knowing his name. A long and desultory conversation here took place be tween Moira. Spring Rice, Sheil, Perceval, Perrin, Lam bert, and C. Ferguson, on a suggestion of Mr. O'Con nell's, that the names of the inmates should be marked on the doers. Colonel YORKE thought all these verbal amendments frittered away the Bill, so as to render it utterly inefficient. It would therefore be no protection to the peaceable—no terror to the criminal, and would only be an useless piece of legislation, tending rather to increase than allay agita tion. He thought the hest way of disposing of it would be to put it into the fire.—(Hear.) Mr O'CONNELL—That is a proposition which I sin u'd have the greatest pleasure in seconding.—(Much laughter.) Mr. WALKER, adverting to Mr. O'Connell's amend ment about the names, was astonished that the Hon. and Learned Member should be the man to impose an addi- tit nal du'y on the peasantry of Irel4nd, be who always prof ssed to he their friend, when the non-performance of that duty would subject them to punishment. Mr. O'CONNELL denied that he did any such thing ; he was the friend of the peasantry, but had never pre tended to be the friend of the disturber of the public peac.. --(Hear, hear.) His amendment went to protect the ileac able peasantry, and to guard them from any treache rous practices to which they might be liable if what he proposed was not agreed to. . . Mr. WILKS was altogether opposed to this amend• went. Mr. STANLEY should vote for the Hon. and Learned Gentleman's amendment, upon the distinct understanding th-tt a clause should afterwards be added, calling on the people to furnish the names of their inmates to the police. Mr. o . o , nnelt's amendment, to add the words " by name." was then agreed to without a divi‘ion; as was also the amendment proposed by the Solicitor-General, as to the police caring on the inhabit ints of a house to show themselves, instead of the police entering their houses. The questi“n was then put on clause 20, which related to the discos ery of arms in the houses of persons resident in tlisturl•ed districts. Mr O'CONNELL called the attention of the Committee to the h in.ship that would be imposed upon individuals who had enemies malicious enough to place arms in their houses, or in the thatch of their cabins, or even in a pig. stye, if they had one, for the purpose of afterwards giving information to thi- police, if their accusers were not bound to show that they had those arms knowingly in their possession. He should propose, therefore, to insert the wad " knowingly" in the present clause; and if the Committee did not agree in that proposition, he s hould afterwards propose to insert the words, " in a dwelling house." The SoLICITOtt• GENERAL and Lord ALTHORP con tended that it was sufficient for arms to be found upon the premises of a person in a disturbed district, to justify the presumption of knowledge, as in the cases of larceny and smugeling it was sufficient to show that the stolen or smuggled goods were in a place under the control of a party, to throw upon him the onus probandi of nut being aware that they were stolen or contraband. After some further conversation, the amendment with respect to the word " knowingly . ' was negatived without a division. Mr. O'CONNELL suggested another amendment, hat " barns, outhouses, &e.," should be excluded ; as, if they were not, the masters might be at the mercy of every vagabond servant that chose to place arms in them. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL thought that houses should be included of which servants were supposed to have the key. . _ Mr. O'CONNELL said it would puzzle a courtmartial to find out 01 what houses the Irish servants had the keys. As to procuring false keys, that was out of the question. They were too poor to be able to do so, unfortunately ; and if they were not, so many causes of Whiteboyism would not be recorded. After a slight discussion, Mr. O'Connell's amendment was agreed to. Several other verbal alteratiAns were made in the clause, after which it was agreed to. The 21st clause was struck out of the Bill without any discussion. The 22d clause having been put, Mr. O'CONNELL remarked, with respect to the words " by menaces or otherwise," that there was one mode of menacing which was legitimate—that of threatening those who gave evidence with an accusation of perjury in case of swearing falsely. All that he wished was, that the only menace that could be made was this species of legal one. He thought the words " or otherwise," should be omitted. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL objected, as most im proper, to any threat of an accusation of perjury made before trial. Mr. O'CONNELL thought that every innocent man had a right to warn his accuser that he would, in case of false testimony, charge him with perjury. No such threat could of course be made to jurors ; it concerned only those who gave evidence. Lord ALTHORP said, that the Hon. and Learned Gentleman only alluded to part of the ca•e. A menace of the sort be mentioned would have an influence over evidence given, but not on the appearance of witnesses. Now the object of the clause was, that there should be no menace to prevent the appearance of witnesses. Mr. CUTLAR FERGUSSON considered the words objected to compl-tely necessary. The clause, if any alteration were to be made in it, should be strengthened instead of being weakened. An Hort. MEMBER suggested the propriety of having any punishment less than 14 years transportation left in the hands of the Lord Lieutenant. The clause was then agreed to. The 23d clause was then put and agreed to without any discussion. Lord ALTEIORP then moved that the Chairman do report progress, and ask leave to sit atain. DISTRESS AMONG THE INDUSTRIOUS CLASSES. Mr. T. ATTWOOD said he had a motion on the paper for to-morrow which he considered as important. The Noble Lord was desirous that he should postpone it until the Irish Coercive Bill had passed through the House, and be (Mr. Artwnod) was willing to do so, provided he was allowe•' to make his statement to-morrow night, leaving the further disru,sion for any other period that might be deemed reasonable. . . Vv . _ Lord ALTHORP did not think it would be desirable that the Hon. Gentleman should mike his statement before the matter could be regularly brought forward for discus- SlOll. Mr. T. ATT WOOD observed that there were so many notic.a of motion on the parr for the next two months, that he should fear having an opportunity to bring the übject forward lor a considerable time, unless the Noble Lord would appoint a day for the discussion. Lord ALTHORP could not uniertake to appoint any day. Mr. T. ATTWOOD wished to know if Wednesday or Fs iday in the next week would he convenient. Lord EBRINGTON hoped the Noble Lord would enter into no arrangement that would delay the Irish Bill. Mr. T. ATTWOOD then declared that he should not postpone his motion, but endeavour to bring it forward to-morrow (this day). DRAMATIC AUTHORS BILL The Dramdtic Authors Bill was read a second time, To be coroini , ted on Monday. STAFFORD BRIBERY INDEMNITY BILL . The Stafford Bribery Indemnity Bill wa., atter some conversation, read a second time. To be committed to• morrow (this day). POLICE OFFICES. On the motion of Mr. LAMB, the House went into Committee en the salaries of police magistrates and the expense of police ffices. Mr. HUME wished to know if it were intended to do away with any of the police offices now in the metropolis. Mr. LAMB replied Chit Lambeth-street office was in tended to be done away with. The resolutions were agreed to, and the House resumed. OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH. Sir A. AGNEW moved for leave to tiring in a Bill for the purpose of enforcing the better regulation of the Sabbath. After some observations from Mr. WARBURTON, Mr. HOME, Mr. SHAW, and several other Hon. Members, leave was given. Tree Bill was then brought in and read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on the 30th of April. The other orders of the day having been disposed of, the House adjourned at half-p oit two o'clock. ,(Se RECOLLECTIONS OF A CHAPERON.— cond Edition, just published.)—" We cannot but express our gr,aitude to Lady DacKe, for the very rich treat she has set before tr..

HARROW SCHOOL.—The Easter examina tion for two scholarships on the foundation closed on Fri • day last, before Dr. BURTON (Oxford), and the Rev. Mr. Humus (Cambridge), when Mr. EGERTON (brother to the Member for Cheshire), and Mr. LESLIE (Captain of the School), were declared the successful candidates. DRURY-LANE THEATRICAL FUND DINNER. The Sixteenth Anniversary Dinner of this laudable Institution took place yesterday evening at the Free masons' Hall, and the attendance on the occasion was unusually numerous. His Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX was, through indisposition, unable to officiate as Chairman, but his office was ably filled by Lord CLANRICARDE. The room was de corated in the usual appropriate style, and the gallery was filled with Ladies, among whom were the vocalists who had tendered their services on the occasion. The cloth being removed, The Noble CHAIRMAN proposed, in succession, "The King," "The Queen," "The Royal Family," " Armv," and " The Navy," each of which was received with enthusiastic applause, and followed by appropriate songs. The principal toasts which succeeded these were, " Prosperity to the Drury. Lane Theatrical Fund," " The Vice• Presidents, ' " The Noble Chairman," and " The Ladies." The principal speakers were Lord CLANRICARDE, the Duke of St. ALBAN'S, and Mr. HARLEY, the latter of whom spoke as follows: May it please your Lordship, my Lords and Gentlemen, If it be true that good wine needs no bush, a good cause needs no!llq ence. This may, perhaps, account for my brethren assigning to me the honourable task of a ddressing you upon these interesting anniversaries. In eloquence I yield to all ; in sincerity and devotion to their interests to none . " When I said I should die a bachelor," cries lienedick, "I did not think I should live till I was married." May I not offer a similar apology, that, when Thalia won me with her smiles, little thought I ever to ask Melpomene for r tears? Let me, however, gain credit when I declare that though, as an actor, my highest ambition is to lose all personal identity in the variety of character I am called to represent, in this assembly, and on this occasion, I desire to represent myself, to throw off the cap and mask, the symbols of those exhilarating moments when your laughter and merriment are my most valued reward, and return you my hear: felt thanks for past favours, and appeal to your sympathy for their continuance ; to record what extensive good your liberal patronage has effected, and what it will still effect ; to explain in whose behalf it is solicited, and how it is applied. I may be allowed to exult that suc cess, unexampled and brilliant, has crowned each appeal that your indulgence has permitted me to make, without any imputation of vanity for my poor endeavours, but simply as a member of that profession, which, from the fir-t dawn of civilization, has been deemed of national im portance both by prince and people ; a profession that gives glace to art and energy to language ; that, by the cunning of the scene exhibits vice in all its native defor mity, and makes virtue " stick fiery off indeed." For as ex maple is the strongest manner of enforcing pre c,pt, so the stare, rightly conducted, is the best picture of nature, the most rational scheme that human wit has formed to dissipate with innocence the cares of life, and to give the leisure hours of business and instructive recrea tion. The institution of this Fund by David Garrick would set the seal of immortality upon his Lame, independent of those high talents that were the wonder and delight of his own time, and are the theme of an admiring posterity. Caressed by the great and idolised by the public, he looked back with fond regard on that profession to which he owed his wealth, popul airy, and station in society, and, reflecting how very few like himself could ascend to the topmost step in the Temple of Fame—how fewer still, when arrived at that height, could maintain their position with temper and dignity—he devised a plan by which the inequalities of genius and the contingencies of fortune might in part be provided for, and the dramatic veteran in adversity find a shelter and a home. Such were the feelings of ancient fellowship that warmed the bosom of that im mortal man, whose admirable art never drew more tears than his still more admirable philanthropy has wiped away. Sacred be his memory for this labour of love! May we, though with less ability, yet with equal zeal, pursue the same course ; and, when that duty shall devolve on our successors, may it be their happiness to plead for objects as deserving as those for whom I now plead ; to address patrons as generous as those it is this day my Fride and privilege to address. The prosperity of this Fund is a splendid proof of the high estimation in which the drama is held by those that rank, education, and enlightened principles quality to be its auditors and judges. As yet frigid philosophy has not reduced man's existence to one dull round of sad realities, but some magical drops are distilled in the cup to make the bitter draught of life go down. To ignorance and fa naticism we make no appeal. To the one we leave those gross excitements that it will in vain seek in the polished scenes of legitimate comedy; to the other, " that man delights not, nor woman neither," we resign not the glo rious visions of the divine Shakspeare ; the high-toned sentiments, the noble enthusiasm, the gracious humanity that make the soul tremble, and the tears start, in the works of that mighty enchanter ! but its own gloom and hypocrisy , a goodly heritage ; and for which let it give God thanks, and make no boast of it. But we do appeal to the taste and right feeling of this assembly. You have applauded the well graced actor in his meridian ; let your silent and more grateful approbation follow him into his retirement, gild with soft sun'hine his declining day, and by reason of age and infirmity, Endless must needs re linquish his sack, may your bounty still afford him a friendly cup to hob and nab over Jack Falstaff s. For to see decrepitude mock itself, and the fire of youth illcounterfeited by tottering age, would be a sorry sight ! The erect term, firm step, and " big manly voice" may, by consummate art, ape the feebleness, the " childish treble," of superannuated dotage. But how shall winter cast off its snows, and assume the freshness, the vigour, the joyousness of spring? The actor claims no exemption trorn the infirmities of nature—age " fills our bones with aches and makes us roar," aye, as loud as we have the merriest of our audience. We may call up spirits, but will they come when we do call to them? When prudence whispers " Retire," let not hard necessity drag the unwil ling veteran to the scene, to exhibit a niournful contrast to his former triumphs, when health animated his frame, and intelligence sat upon his brow; when he gave to Comedy its gayety and whims, and realised, by his dignity and pathos, the dark and mysterious grandeur of the Tragic Muse. Be assured the same spirit that prompts your benevolence guides its distribution. Actors are a band of brothers, united by kindred tastes and sympathies, striving together in the generous race, not in rivalry, but emulation of your applause. To have outlived health and prosperity may well shake the firmest heart; but to be exhibited to the the public gazii , would inevitably subdue it. While, there fore, we dispense your *moray, p•rmit us to dispense it in secret; reassuring you that every bi other thus relieved has contributed his ortion to the general stock of harmless pleasure, whether ta make the lungs of his audience crow like chanticleer, or send his hearers weeping to their beds. It were, perhaps, difficult to find an excuse for those who neglect to avail themselves of this invaluable institu tion. Yet there are cases of such neglect that have power ful claims, not on our pity only, hut relief. To meet the exigencies of sudden calamity, a moderate sum has been spar ed from the general fund, and applied to the urgent necessities of non-subscribers and their families with the happiest , ffect. We hope for your approval of tois salu ary measure, seeing that our regular annuitants, whose inte rests alone could be affected, have hailed this opportunity of showing that the naisfortunea of their less provident brethren have not been forgotten in their own. Let me add, that, while we smooth the veteran's passage to the grave, we bold out a helping band to his widow and children. Sad would be his reflections when the last scene of lite's eventful drama draws to a close were this act of justice and humanity denied. By this, bereavement loses ha•f its sorrows, and the unprotected find a refuge trom those snares that beset at every turn their youth and inexperience. This Institution has had the honour to receive the espe cial patronage of three successive Kings. Again it is my proud duty to record the princely bounty of his Majesty, the value of which is enhanced by the kind and conde scending terms in which lie is pleased to express his Royal solicitude for its prosperity, and for the welfare of his worn-out servants, who, amid the many cares that belong to his high station, still hold a place in his heart. To our most gracious Sovereign and the august partner of his throne, what more appropriate language can I apply than that of the poet for all time?— " May they live Longer than I have time to tell their years! Ever beloved and loving may their rule be! And, when old Time shall lead them to their end, Goodness and they fill up one monument." The presence of your Lordship forbids the expression of much th .t our gratitude dictates and would fain declare upon this occasion of your presiding at our festive board, where charity is the object and the end. For your mu nificence we tender you our heartfelt thanks ; for your having graced this festival with your zeal and eloquence, if there he anything more expressive than thanks, tout we would also tender you. The stage with such patrons cannot but prosper ; the stage that`gave Sheridan to co wady and Shakspeare to the world ! Mr. Price made a speech, in which he ascribed his failure, while director of Drury-lane, solely to the system of free admissions, and quoted an opinion of Sheridan in support of his own; and Mr Bunn, in an oration which gave rise to considerable mani festation of feeling, complained of the extension of license to the Haymarket and Lyceum. In the course of the evening, Mr. Harley, as Treasurer, read the list of donations, among which the follow ing were the principal :—His Majesty 100/., the Duke of Sussex 50/., the Duchess of Kent 25/, the Marquis of Clanricarde 25/., the Duke of Devon shire 100/., the Duchess of St. Albans 501., the Duke of Bedford 504, and many more from 40/. to 50/., forming a total of 1,1001. Madame de Meric delighted the meeting with her singing of the first verse of " God save the King," and also of the celebrated scene of "Di Piacer." Miss Betts sang " Cease your funning," with variations, with great effect ; and Braham gave " Scots wha hae" with an energy and expression which excited an encor". Messrs Taylor, Firzwilliam, &c., sang some comic and other songs ; and Mr. Wolf, who performed last Monday at the Philhaitnoiic, executed a fantasia on the violin. Master Hughes performed a melange on the harp, and several other ;Artists contributed by their talents to the entertainment of the company. The Noble Chairman left the room between eleven and twelve. BANKRUPTCY COURT, ISIARcii 19. Mr. Joseph Glossop, late proprietor of the Coburg Theatre, underwent his first examination under the fiat of bankruptcy issued against him. The first creditor who appeared to prove was a lady named Cross. She claimed 400/. money lent to Mr. Glossop some years ago, and 2001. for interest. Two individuals then stepped forward with proofs, one fir 66/. 175., and the other for 30/., for goods supplied to and work done at the Coburg Theatre upwards of six years ago. Mr. Glossop stated that he was in England in 1830, 1829, and 1828 ; part of 1827 he was in Italy. He left England in the middle of November, 1822, and, alter tra velling through Italy, Spain, Portugal, and France, he returned to England about March, 1827. He w is, how ever, obliged to make a hasty retreat to the Continent, as his petitioning creditor, hearing of his embarkation from Calais for England, instanly came over in another packet, and issued a writ against him. He remained in England only fourteen days, and then returned to France. In 1823 he was not in England. In 1824 he was in Naples, and he was named by the Neapolitan King Director of the Theatre in that country; he had also the management of the theatre at Milan, which he occasionally visited. In 1825 his time was divided between Milan, Naples, and Venice. In Match, )826, his contract with the Milanese Government expired, and he then proceeded by way of Flotence and Pat is to England ; his desire was to see his father to obtain something from him, as he had lost his fortune. He had a perfect recollection of being in England at the latter end 41826, because he was at Turin in September in that year, and received despatches lr m the Embassy there to convey to Lord Granville at Paris. He stopped three weeks in England, during which time he walked publicly in the streets, but be did not go among his creditors. He did not conceal himself, although his ar rival was currently reported. His lather was his largest creditor, and he endeavoured to make an arrangement with him and with others. Mr. Glossop having been requested to recollect the time that he left Florence, remembered leaving Turin en the Ist of November, 1826, and lie WWI blamed by Mr. Foster for havinl delayed the despatches three days. At that time it was discovered that a correspondence was carri.d on between the King of Spain and Charles X.. for the purpose of preventing the army of observation from being withdrawn ; and as it was known that lie was in posses sion of an autograph letter of the King of Spain, an attempt was made to obtain that document from him. When he arrived at the frontiers the inspector of police invited him to supper, and during the time he was in his company his carri'ge was rifled, and the letter and the despatch for Lord Granville carried off. He hastened to Paris to communicate the circumstance to Lord Gra,- ville, but on his arrival, he found the despatch had been delivered two hours before. He returned from Turin to Paris with a Sardinian messenger, and on their journey an avalanche fell between them. He was in Spain a second time in 1629, and conveyed the despatches announcing the King's marriage. He had good reason to know that he was in England in 1826, because in that year be lost all his money. _ _ _ Mr. MONTAGU, in support of the commission, said that the law provi ed that a lapse of six years should he a bar to the recovery of a debt ; but ii the debtor had been absent from England during the whole of that six year, then the creditor has six years more from the time that the debtor returns to this country, calculating from the time that the debt was demandable. Alter the expiration of six years, if it could be shown that the defendant had been in Eng- land, the plaintiff had six years more to recover his de mand ; being in Engl,nd was sufficient, even if it was al the Land's End of Cornwall. The examination was adjourned to Tuesday, the 2 , 1 o: April. COURT OF ADMIRALTY, MARCH 20. JUDGMENT. THE KING v. CERTAIN TREASURE SAVED FROM HIS MAJESTY'S SHIP THETIS. This was the day fixed by the Judge of this Court for his judgment in this important salvage case, and the Court was numerously attended by persons interested in the question. Sir C. ROBINSON commenced by observing that the case he had to decide was one of civil salvage, and whether as re garded the amount of the property saved or the exertion used, was unprecedented. His Majesty's ship Thetis had sailed from Rio with 850,000 dollars on board on the 30th of December, and was wrecked four days afterwards off Cape Trio. The admi. ral of the station, Sir F. Baker, on hearing of the loss, pro. ceeded to the Cape to preserve, if possible, the vessel and freight, and made preparations for that purpose. The Learned Judge then went over, at considerable length, the facts of the case, which have already been made public, and spoke in high terms of the zeal of Captain Dickenson, whom the Court must consider as the actual salvor. The Admiral, however, had taken the responsibility of the whole proceedings upon himself, and therefore was entitled to share in that capacity, as by the means placed at the disposal of Capt. Dickinson, the salvage services were more advanced than by the actual per sonal interference of the Admiral himself. This case was one which was completely out of the ordinary claims for salvage, and there could not be any doubt but that all employed in it had most zealously exerted themselves. The various contri vances of Capt. Dickenson and Admiral Baker to save the treasure claimed attention, as by them not less than 750,000, out of 850,000 dollars were saved from the wreck, or fifteen-six teenths of the whole property. The salvage services occupied not less than IS months. The claim of Capt. Dickenson was fully proved, but the whole responsibility was upon Admiral Baker. The officers and crew of the Lightning ought to share in the property saved by them, and the officers and crew of the Algerine would take this share of the treasure they saved, pursuant to the note of distribution laid down in the Prize Act of July, 1827. There could be no doubt that the officers and crews of his Majesty's yes. sels were entitled to receive salvage in cases like the present. With respect to the claim made by the suits of the Admiralty that must be allowed, as the public men and stores could not be so long occupied as they had been for the advantage of the owners without compensation. Under all the circumstances, he should allot 17,000/., exclusive of expenses, as salvage mo. ney, to be divided among the salvers in proportion to the pro. perty saved by each vessel, except 1,0001. to be speedily paid as the Court should direct. It is understood that an appeal will be made. Yesterday a Court of Directors was held at the East India Home, when Captain WM. TICEIIURST wis sworn into the command of the ship Minerva, con signed to China direct. THE EARL OF DURHAM.—We regret his resignation, becati , e it indicates that the tendency of the Cabinet is to Toryism. Lord DURHAM was undoubtedly the most radical member of the Cabinet. His retirement will lead, we are air tid, to the domination of the Rim- MOND and STANLEY party,—to more bayonet and bullet laws,—to a decreasing confidence in public men,—to attempts to restore Toryism, and finally, to resistance, revolution, and a republic. —Brighton Guardian. COERCIVE BILL (IRELAND). —On Tues day, a very numerous meeting, in consequence 01 an invitation from the CARTWRIGHT Club, was held at White Conduit House, to petition against the Coercive Bill for Ireland. Mr. RUTT was in the Chair, and he reminded the people th it the Irish were not now to he run over by me Scotch Greys, but by the English Greys. Major REVEL, Mr. SAUL, and Mr. HUNT were tl e principal speakers, and they had a most willing audience. We should suppose that there were about 2,000 persons as sembled, while a great many went and cause ; and all who were present seemed to express a hearty assent to the severest invectives which were uttered against the Dili. The persons who attended were chiefly of the working classes, and the manner in which they expressed their sentiments, betokened a wide and increasing chasm be tween them and the middle classes, which it is now, per haps, an important duty on the part of the Government, and of all who wish well to the country, to diminish by all just and reasonable means.
