draw the amendment s and that the House should dispose of the person who admitted him Self re sponsible, and he (Mr. B.) for one, should feel no difficulty in moving his commitment to Newgate. Mr. WODEHOUSE was sorry the question had been brought before the House. He thought real character lost much of its weight by seeking the protection of that House against the attacks of such creatures of straw as these persons were described to be. He thought there was no pro vision in either of the six Acts complained of, so obnoxious as the power of the House which it Was now called upon to exercise. Sir ROBERT WILSON said, the object of his Ron. Friend was not to protect his character, but to drag to light the dastardly assassin who attacked the defenceless under the shelter of the press. Sir T. LETHBRIDGE thought the Hon. Member was entitled to the thanks of the House for hav ing brought the question forward. The libel 'as a gross attack :upon the privileges of the House, and consequently upon _those of thf.-- people. He thought the Paper in question ::as a di sgrace to the press.—(Hear, hear, hear !) Ravin g had the person brought before the house, and heard his prevarication, there were grounds quite sufficient to warrant their proceeding at the moment. The-question was then put and agreed to, that the further discussion of this queStion sh ou ld b e - adjourned till to-morrow. Mr. BENNET asked what was to become of the accused parties in the mean time ? The Marquess of LONDONDERRY replied (as - we understood his Lordship), that if the lion. Membe r supposed that he was responsible for the appearance of the parties, he was much mistaken. - After a few words from Sir-R. - WILSON, it was r nnved by Mr. BENNET, and carried, that Messrs. S hackell, Arrowsrnith, Weaver, and Cooperi do attend the House to-morrow. - I NTERFERENCE OF A PEER AT AN ELECTION. ,Sir F. BURDETT presented.a petition from a persoli nani txt James Mills, complaining of the interference of the Marquess of llertibrd in the Election of the Marquess of Londonderry for the Borough of Orford. After some conversation between Mr. W. 'Wynn, Mr. F. Ro binson; and Sir F. Burdett, as to - whether this was to be con sidered an Election Petition or not, The SPEAKER decided, that Mills having stated hi mse lf rot to be an elector, bUt merely " a British subject," the Pe-. tition could not be considered an Election Petition. It was Possible that a Petition might yet be presented against the re turn of his Lordship, 14 days not having elapsed since the ele:.- t ium—The petition was ordered to lie on th e t a bl e . .. COUNTY REPRESENTATION IN SCOTLAND. Lord A. 11. , - - miriroN, in rising to bring forward his ,promised. motion respecting the- State or County - Representation in Scotland, adverted to tile want of interest which the House appeared to feel in the question; a circumstance which -was evident, from the thin attendance of Mem bers. Indeed, he thought it was as much his duty to count the House as to address it. He felt a becoming respect for the House, but he Also felt the highest respect for those who made him a Member of it. "In justice, therefore, to the feelings of those who were interested in the Present subject, be should not enter at any length into a consideration of- that subject. He would riot act the farcical part of arguing a question which would be decided by the votes of those who were then .scattered about the Metropolis ; and lie would therefore 'merely move a set of -R esolutions, declaring in substance, that it rip ' eared from the returns upon the table, that the 2 : t al number of vot er s f or S co tl an d was only , ) : 89 and that the house Would early in the en ug Session consider the propriety of establish-I ft ga connection between the Owners of the Land -4 a,(1 the R e p resen t a ti ves o f t h e C ount i es. The \ °1 )le Lord concluded by moving a formal.Re 'alution that the number of voters for the seve ral Co un ti es o f S cot l an d appeared, by the Re turns upon the table, to amount to 2889. • „Air. MACKENZIE said, he should meet the P_rinC iPle of the motion, for of course the Noble . :*°rd did not intend to confine himself to moving resolution of mere figures, which already. ap ileared on' the table. He (Mr;M.) could not 4 1 gree to any abstract proposition on this subject, Sts the grounds of it were clearly stated, and tt s Practicability as clearly shewn... The present iv a te of the county representation in Scotland , aS attributed' i n a grea t measure to t h e state of ,roPerti. The Yeomanry of Scotland were corn. of very few ; and the proprietors were ilerY-large. If, however, a practical remedy - to alleged grievance were stated, he would be O e l ing to consid er it w ith every attent i on, but to would• not give a . pledge which must lead Posy -n examination of a mere th eoret i ca l pro ioosi.un: He denied the basis o f th e pro ition of th e N o bl e Lord. He denied that ti lr th e e Was no connection between the voters and b o ; landhold ers . Alth ou gh t h e r i g h t of voting "ged only to th e t enan t s i n c hi e f, some of ceoll°4l had no i mme di ate b ene fi c i al interest in r l and, yet they had a m e di a t e i n t erest i n the land feudal rights which they possessed over e land itself. _ Besides, any alteration in this 4 s pect would- be a violation of the Act of Union. .• e did not s a y that no cas e could occur i n w hi c h so le gislative, measure might not b e a d op t e d i n j o rl ie measur e re pu gnan t t o th e U n i on , b ut i t was s_eumbent up on those wilo proposed such a mea , it 7e, to make out a very strong case in support of It was worthy of remark, that the people of it?tland. themselves did not require a Reform.

OF IRELAND BILL.. The CHANCELLOR - a the EXCHEQUER movett second reading of this Bill. Mr. MABERLEY objected to the Bill, on the ground that it went to perpetuaM on the country the system of improvident bargains, which had characterised all the Chancellor of the Ex chequer's proceedings with - the Bank of Ireland. If these bar gains were looked at by the House, it would be found that the Right Hon. Gentleman . had almost invariably paid a greater amount of interest than he could have procured it for in Eng land. • Perhaps the Right Hon. Gentleman had something to say in favour of the measure ; if not, he hoped the House would not pass it. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said the Hon. Gentleman was mistaken in suppoSing that he had always given five' per cent. to the Bank of Ireland. At the time of the peace, and ever since, the Exchequer Bills at five per cent. were drawn in and exchanged for others at four per cent. and it was to per petuate this rate that the Bill was intended. Mr. HUME thought the objection of his Hon.' Friend (Mr. Maberley) still existed ; for although the rate was not five per cent. it was four, and if money continued as plentiful as it was now, that rate would . be one per cent. too much. Mr. RICE supported the Bill. He thought that this ought not to be a mere matter of figures ; it ought to be more a mat ter-of feeling, and the depressed state of the property of Ire land, in consequence of it s union with England, be considered in whatever bargains were made with it. After a few words from Sir H. PARK ELL and the CUAN cEI.LoR of the EXCHEQUER, the Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be . committed to-morrow. • _ POST OFFICE. The House went into a Committee on the Postage Act. Sir H. PARNELL suggested that the Right Hon. Gentle man ought not to go on_ with the Bill before the correspondence which had taken place on the subject between Government and the Post Office had been laid before the. House. Mr. F. PALMER made a few observations on the same side s . The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER • maintained that the country ought not to be precluded from benefiting by the improvements which had been Made in regard to other car riages when applied to the mail coaches. Other coaches could go 12 miles an hour, and it was the object of this Committee to come to a Resolution on which to found a Bill to en a bl e th e Postmaster-General to introduce this improvements and charge additional rates for it. Sir .T. NEWPOia thought the House should not agree to any such measure, till it was ascertained - that it would not be productive of injury to the community and danger to the indi viduals concerned. Mr. PHILLIPS supported the measure, anti reprehended the idea of depriving the nation of the benefit of modern disco veries on account of groundless apprehensions. Mr. RICE thought that some consideration ought to be given to the system of cruelty it would tend to countenance in over working the animals. After a few words frOna Mr. F. Palmer, Mr. Ricardo, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Mr. Gladstone, the Com mittee divided. For the Original Motion - Against it - 7 Majority - - - —23 The House resumed, and the Report was ordered to be re ceived to-morrow. The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at Eleven o'clock. THE COLONIES. LOWER CANADA-(PROITINCIAL PARLIAMENT, LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL, .11LIRcir 17, 1821. This day, at two o'clock', his Excellency the GOVERNOR=IN-CHIEF came down in State to the Legislative Council Chamber, and being seated on the Throne, the Gentle man Usher of the Black Rod was sent to command the presence of the Assembly, which being come up, his Excellency was pleased to dose the Session by the following Speech : " Gentle Men of the Legislative Council,.and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly, • " Although I cannot by any means express my satisfaction in the general . result of your deliberations, yet it is with great pleasure Z acknowledge your assiduous and zealous attend ance in the discharge of your public duties, during the long and laborious Session which I am now to close. " Gentlemen of the House of Assembly, • " I thank you in his Majesty's. name. for those supplies which have been granted by Bills of Appropriation, and assure you of my best attention in the application of them to the pu poses for which they were intended. " I exceedingly regret that the expectations of his Majesty, which by his command I had the honour to.express to you at the opening of the Session, have not b6en realized. ' "- Gentlemen of the iegislative Council, and Gentlemen of the House of Assembly, ' " 'When this Parliament met for the dispatch of public busi ness, I did entertain a hope that the experience of the last few years would have led you to a mature and serious consideration of the consequences that would inevitably follow if the then state of things should not be remedied; you cannot therefore be surprized that I should now express not only my disappoint ment but great concern, that the same /question of Constitu tional principle should have again disturbed the Unanimity ,of your legislative proceedings. " Upon this occasion, 1 think it a duty which_ I owe to you and to your country to call upon you to consider - during this summer the result of the discussions of the Session in all its bearings. "You will see the administration of the Civil Government left without any pecuniary means but what I shall advance upon my own personal responsibility ; you will see individuals suffering under severe and unmerited hardships, cause& by the want of that Constitutional authority that is necessary for the payment of the expences of the Civil Governirient ; you will see the interior improvements of the country nearly at a stand ; you will see, in short, the Executive Government in a • manner palsied and powerless. " When I shall again summon you to meet here in Parlia ment, you will come to decide the important question, whether the Government shall be restored to its. Constitutional energy, or whether you are to deplore the prospect of lasting misfortune, by a continuance in the present state of things ; important 'as that question is, there can be no difficulty in the decision. When the blessings of the British Constitution were granted to this Province, you received with it the recorded experience of centuries of practice ; there is no question of doubt or difficulty that may not find its precedent in the records of the Imperial Parliament, and I cannot think that any wiser guide need be desired." After which, the llonourable Speaker of the Legislative Council said, that it was the pleasure of his Excellen the Governor-in-Chief, that the Provision a l P ar li amen t shout be prorogued until Thursday, the 26th April next : and the Provincial Parliament is accordingly prorogued until Thurs day, 26th April next. LONDON ORPHAN ASYLUM.-The Anniversary Dinner of the friends and supporters of this lau dable Institution took place yesterday evening at the City of London Tavern. The Duke of SUSSEX; en entering the room, was warmly cheered, the band playing " God save the King." His Royal Highness's health was proposed by Mr. Sheriff Williams, and drunk with three times three, after which he addressed the assembly. He had heard ft was intended to erect a rno lipment to the memory of his Royal Brother the late Duke of KENT. There was no structure of brass or of marble so well calculated to perpetuate a recollection of his worthiness, as the lasting prosperity of the London Orphan Asylum, of which he had been the Patron, and in the success of which he had always felt the deepest interest. His Royal Highness, in concluding, begged leave to pro pose that his MAiEsTv's health should again be drunk with three times three, which was done with great cheering. The children of the Insti tution now entered the room, boys and girls, and went round in procession. They stopped at the lower end of the room, and were addressed by the Rev. Leigh Richmond, in an eloquent and appropriate exhortation of considerable length. A collection was made, and the party kept up the conviviality till a late hour. PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS.

QUIS DICERE FALSUM AUDEAT ? •• LONDON, FRIDAY, MAY 1,1, 1821. REVOLUTION IN MEXICO. From the Charlestown Papers received this morning, to the 13th of April.] C 4 HAVANNA, APRIL I.—l avail myself of the sailing of the schooner Jane to forward you a re gular file of Papers. We have had an arrival from Vera Cru, with accounts from that city to the 12th ultimo. It is said by - her that the Viceroy of Mexico has been dethroned; and a new Junta formed. Deputies have been appointed by the Junta to go to Spain- and re quest a King from the Cortes, to be selecled out of the Royal Family, and to reside amongst them, and their independence to be acknowledged. 1 givo this information as I received it, but certain it is that a Revolution has taken place in that Country." We received this morning .ParisS' Papers o 'uesday last. Prince YPSILANTI and TIIIW• DORE are stated, in recent letters from Buchares to have formed a junction of their forces, and perfect concord is said to subsist between them. Their forces are estimated at fifty or sixty thou sand men, and a Council of Government, charg ed with furnishing supplies for the army, has been formed at Bucharest. The AR CIIIM AND R ITY GASIS, well known by his writings, is at the head of the Greeks in Thessaly, who have broken out into open insurrection, and raised . the Greek standard. The following ttre furtlier extracts from the French Papers:— " NAPLES, APRIL 20.—Our August Sovereign is expected within our walls. A deputation from this city repaired to Rome to entreat his Majesty to return to the bosom of his family, and to his faithful subjects. The Neapolitan squa dron is returned to this port. The Court Mar tial of the Government of Naples has just con demned to death Paul Ruggioro, a baker at Naples, aged 22 years, for the crime of carrying prohibited arms. The sentence has been carried into execution. " LISBON, APRIL 21.—1 n the sitting of the Cortes on the 17th the Commission charged with the arrangement of the Constitution presented a project of Law, proposing that the foreign pos sessions of Portugal, which have proclaimed the new Constitution, shall be declared legitimate, and that any forcible occupation of any portion of these foreign possessions shall be considered as a declaration of war against' Portugal. 46 MADRID, APRIL 26.—1 t is affirmed that General Pepe and fifty officers, Piedmontese and Neapolitans, have arrived at Barcelona. " APRIL- 27.—The departure of Sir Henry Wellesley, who has.so long a time performed the functions of Ambassador from the Court of Great Britain to his Most Catholic Majesty, is a very natural consequence of the system of economy adopted by the Cortes. The Ambassadors of Spain being replaced by Ministers Plenipoten tiary, the Powers with whom we have relations treat us as we treat them, on the footing of exact reciprocity. Besides, Austria, Prussia, and Rus sia, have almost always had here Ministers Ple nipotentiary, and frequently diplomatic agents of inferior ranks : very often a Consul has been entrusted -with all the commercial and political affairs of these Powers with us." The Piedmontese Gazette of the 28th does, not confirm the news of the acceptance of the Crown by the Duke de G euevois. : It does not even mention his arrival in Piedmont ; and it seems the King Victor Emmanuel is still at Nice, and the Prince of Carignan at Florence. FR ENCII FUNDS. May 7, Five per Cents; B3 f. 20 C. Bank Stock 1557 f. 50 C. Flanders and Dutch Mails arrived this morn ing. We subjoin their principal contents :-- " HAGUE, MAy 2.—The Gazette of this town contains the following article :--- " It is asserted, on good authority, that a Concordat has been concluded between the Holy See and the Court of Prussia, and that it was signed on the 23d of March last by Cardina! Gonsalvi and Prince Hardenberg, in the name of their respective Sovereigns. " According to this Concordat, the ancient Bishoprics . are re-established by the Govern ment, as well as the Chapters and Semirraries. The Bishopric of Aix-la-Chapelle is suppressed; but there is to be an Archiepiscopal See created at Cologne. " The Concordat further stipulates the free and public exercise of the Catholic Religion, an unfettered episcopal jurisdiction ; as well as the faculty of • having; tecoUrte to the Court o, Rome. " This news has- been received officially by the Papal Nuncio at Munich. " N. B. It was at Rome, and not at Lay bach, that the Concordat above mentiontql was signed.—Cardinal Gonsalvi was not at the Con-. grass at Laybach. cz ViENNA, APRIL 26:—Besides the order of stopping the march of the Russian army for Italy; the departure of the heavy artillery &c. of several Austrian regiments to that country is also countermanded." If the arbitrary Potentates of - Europe do riot profit by the rei'olutionary lessons which have been held forth to them in, France, Spain, Por tugal, Naples, Sardinia, and the Brazils, they will fall the uupitied victims of their own obsti nacy, ignorance, and folly; The MARCH OF MIND has commenced, and, though it may en counter a temporary check, it Must finally pro duce a due limitation of Recral Power and a full confirmation of Popular iights. The King of PORTUGAL and the. BRAZILS has acted tvisely, and, if he is: sincere, his Throne and FaMily will Fie secure... Let the Governments of Naples and Sardinia pursue the same course, or they will soon have to encounter a repetition of the trou bles from which they have obtained a temporary., relief. Russia, Austria, Prussia, and even Tur key, must adopt the same measures, otherwise their countries will fall under a military despo tism or a vulgar democracy.. An hereditary and limited Monarchy is the only •Government calL culated to secure . the freedom and promote the happiness of the people, and such a form of Go vernment, we hope, will in time be universal. • '.. INDIA. By dispatches from, Bombay we have the sa tisfaction to learn brilliant and successful achievement by - Lieutenant-Colonel . the lion. LINCOLN STANHOPE. It , is announced in The Bombay Gazette in the.followiT7 General Order : "'The Honourable the Governor in Council has had the gra tification of receiving a report from Lieut.-Colonel the Iron. -L. Stanhope to the address of the Adjutant-General; of the first operations of the force under his command, in the province of Okamandel, in the reduction of the fortress of Dwarka. The 'Governor in Council has much satisfaction in noticing the judi cious and prompt decision of the Lieut.-Colonel commanding, and his considerate humanity in the hour of victory, as well as the skill. discipline, and gallantry, evinced by the officers and troops of every rank and description." lie also expresses his regret at the severe wounds of Captain SOILLIECX and Lieutenant MARRIOTT. The fortress was carried by escalade. The garrison, consisting of•about 550 men, endeavour ed to effect a retreat into the adjoining jungles, but were met by the different piquets posted by Colonel STANHOPE, and, hemmed in as they were, a dreadful scene of carnage ensued. One party of the ht were driven into a back water, deep and muddy,.through which they passed, and they made a stand on the bank, and here Captain SOILLTEUX received two wounds.one of which de prived him of his right hand. From this the enemy again threw themselves into the water. After great numbers had been killed, Lieut.- Colonel STANHOPE caused his troops to cease firing, and after long persuasion, the few that remained were induced to surrender. Endea- yours were made to save the other party in the same way, but they continued to fire, and it was not until two six-pounders had been brought against them with grape, that they could be In duced to give in. Almost every one of the few remaining were badly wounded, and the whole found alive amounted only to 50 or 60. The women, children, and peaceable inhabitants had gone off into the jungles, and the Brahmins had retired, with Colonel STANHOPE'S approbation, to a pagoda outside the town ; so that retribu- Lion had fallen alone on that class which never gave, and consequently never expected to re ceive quarter. The Lieut.-Colonel bears the most honourable testimony to the conduct of all the Officers and men under him. The return is killed, 4; wounded, 29 ; including three Of ficers, Captain SOILLIEUX, Lieutenant MAR iuoTT, and Lieutenant CAssA.:sr. By the same dispatch brought by the Castle Forbes, the report is confirmed that the expedi tion to the Persian Gulph had met withla check. A battalion, with guns, was left at the island of Kishem, after we had destroyed the holds of the pirates. It was not intended that this force should act on the offensive, - but merely retain its posi tion ; but, the Commanding Officer, assisted by a force•from the Imaum of Muscat, proceeded to attack a fortress called Cascarry, which the pirates held. They were attacked by a large body of Arabs, treble in numbers, and we lost six Officers killed, and about 500 Sepoys. The latter fought most bravely, but were overpowered by numbers. We are sorry to say, that the excellent Go vernor of Bombay, the Hon. Mr. ELPHINSTONE, had the misfortune to fracture his collar bone, by a fall from his horse, as he was proceeding to Kutch on the public business of his Honourable Employers. They have never had so active, so in telligent, and so popular a servant. He was gra dually ;getting better, to the infinite satisfaction of all the Presidency. C BEAT FOR GERM.-It is reported in the City 'is day, that a forgery bits . been . discovered at ,e Bank, in the name of Sir ROBERT PEEL, to the amount of ten thousand Founds. It is said that the offender was a clerk in the Bank, and that, on opening his desk, a vast number of Ex chequer Bills were found. lie has been taken into custody. Yesterday his MAJESTY received visits from the Duke of YORK and the Princess AUGUSTA.— His MAJESTY, attended by Sir BENJAMIN 13Loomrtr.Ln, left his Palace at half-past six o'clock, for the residence of Count LI EVEN, in riey-street, to stand' sponsor for the infant of his Excellency, upon which occasion his MA JESTY wore a RuFsian uniform, and an Order, with which his MAJESTY had been Invested by command of his, Imperial Majesty the Emperor of ALL THE RUSSIAS. It appears from the Jamaica Papers, that the Duke of MANWIESTER has entirely recovered from the effects of his severe accident, and. had received numerous congratulatory addresses*from the inhabitants throughout the island.
