The Learned 'Gentleman called the recollection of the Jury to the illuminations for the Queen, and obs , Jrved - , that a mob of - persons on that occasion thought proper, in compliment to her Majesty, who,, he might say by the lvay, was of all persons least desivotis to interrupt the peace, to break ivin dows, .a.nd commit excesses. in their way to the West end of the - town they attacked, several houses 1n which no light appeared, and committed grei,tt daap;dations at the hutu:e of the plaiatiff.: The:) , first brolte - th . e . fan-liot, and finally demo lished. every square of glass. In the morning, .ftvo bushels of stones were taken out of the pre., mins.—Several witnesses proved the plaintiff's case.

County of Derby, prayin.g-iVe.'an inquiry into the distresses of Agriculturists, and complaining of the ill-effects of the importation of Foreign Corn.—Laid on the table. FOREIGN TRADE.. 7 - • The Earl of RosSLY.II stated, that he had 'been requested by a Noble Friend (the MarqueSs of Lansdowne), who was indisposed, to move .the discharge of the Order, :requiring 'their -Lord ships' attendaue on this- day, hewas to haite brought forward his Motion. - forthe meta of rt, Committee on .For e-0 Friemd, ai;so requy t ti► t ren, , ,v the •Order - fOr any suit the coire - nience : of their Lord s hip s . lie thought Wednesday -was generally tin :open d&y, he should 'move that their .Lord. , ,hips be summ4i,.. - ed on that day, if there. as 110 objectiodon, other part of the ilduse. The Earl of LivEnsoor. had. no ,objection whatever: Any day was equzilly emm , niettt to him, but if a Committee on the State of our reign Trade was to be appointed this Session, he diought that it ought to be done with as little delay as possible. He had given notice, at the same-time as the Noble Marquess, that he hi tended -to Move for the production of ce. Papers relative to the state of our internal Tr-ade. The objects were not exactly the same, but there existed that connexion between thorn, which led hint to wish-that the two motions should be made on the same. day. He should therefore postpone his motion until Wednesday next. The motion was then agreed to. The Earl of ItossLYN then moved for the con tinuation of the accounts laid before the Com mittee of Foreign Trade last Session to the pre sent time.—Agreed too. rtain THE QUEE'S ANNUITY BILL The Earl of L4IVERPOOL, after referring to the Order of- the. Day for the second reading-of the Queen's Annuity Bill, whith stood for Monday next, said that he should move it on that day, after the motion of the -Noble Earl opposite (Earl Grey) had been disposed of, if there should be no intention on the part of the House to enter into any discussion-on the subject: If there should, he should have no objection to postpone the second reading till Tuesday, "but he would prefer Monday, and at any future stage :of the Bill, he should-be disposed to give every facility for discussion, ifit were required. No objection being made, the Order remained fixed for next. Monday. - • IRNII MANVFACTURES. - .The Earl of LIMERICK presented a Petition, signed by the High Sheriff; Noblemen, Gentle men, Clergy, and Freeholders of the County of Limerick, complaining of the checks put upon the introduction of Irish Manufactures into Eng land, particularly upon that of ;Irish spirits,. which had been prevented•from having a fair ad mission to the English markets, a n d - s t at i ng ,. t h at they considered themselves entitled, .Under the Articles of Union, .to the introduction. of their manufactures into England, on the same. footing as those of any other part of the United King- - . dom. _ His Lordship considered the object one of great importance. He concurred in every sen timent stated •by the Petitioners, and on- all grounds of justice and policy, recommended the Petition to the serious consi&ration of the House —Read, and laid on the 'fable. STATE .OF IRELAND. The Earl of BLESINTON• bad no doubt that the House would recollect that he had moved last year the appointment of - a Committee to inquire' into the state of Ireland. Having since under stood that it was intended to bring the subject before the other branch of the.. Legislature, he felt disposed to give •up the subject, but as he found that the intention was abandoned, he should now give noticeohat on the 12th of March next, he should move for the appointment of. such- a Committee. He fixed a remote day, in order to. be able -to receive certain. previous communica tions which he expected from Ireland. He should at present also knave for copies ..of the list of du ties on English goods imported iiito Ireland, and Of the list of duties on Irish goods imported into England.—Agreed to. LONDON i".ETITION • The Duke of 13EnFonn presented a Petition from the Lord Mayor, Aidertiteb, and Corm - non Council of the City of London, praying- that her Majesty's name he restored t o the Litur g y.— Read and laid on the table.—llisr- Grace then preiented a .Petition from the Proprietors -and Occupiers of Land, hi the Eastern Division of the Isle of Ely, praying for some relief to-Agri culture.Laid on the table. LORI) MAYOR OF nzTBLIN. . The Earl of _DARN LEY, in the course of the last Session, bad made a motion on the subject of an individual Who held one of the highest:si tuationsAn Ireland, he meant the Lord Mayor of - lle:-understood that the! Lord Mayor of Dublin held ,by patent under the Crown, the exclusive right- of supplying all-the Public Offi ces with Stationery, and it had been represented to him that this exclusive right had been -the cause of great waste and loss to-the public.,.lFle should be glad, on invektigation,,to'find that those .representations were unfounded, and in order to throw light. on _the suWct, should move for copies of all the communications.which had.pass ed between the Irish Government and the Chan cellor-of the Exchequer, with reuect to the -sup ply-of Stationery ha the Public Offices of Ire • land, of the proceedings taken thereon, and of their results. YiSCOLUICSIDMOUTII'sincereIy hoped, that .no one would object to the motion, but in justice to the todividnal alhaded upOn their. Lord ships to suspend their judgment till he had had an opportunity of explaining his Conduct. The Earl of DARSILEY had cautiously guarded, as he thought, against any such inference as that drawn - by the Noble Visconnt, When he had.said, that he shoUld be glad, On , investigation, to liaci that.the representation's made against the inuivi dual alluded to wer - e - unfounded. But he was not astonished that the Noble Viscoitutshoul;! feel sp.much tendeis 'anxiety for thecharzici;er that person, when he.reCollected that the Lord cf Dublin had placed himself at the riL:: late proCeedirjg.' s had been 119 repeated:that he due inquiry, it should be found a . ..J.0r of that in . dividual Was - entirely c:ear,. au,l that the public had not been a considerable loser.—Th4i nnition . was then agreed to. LONGITUDE BILL. The Longitude Bill was read a third time apd ?..s:ssoci.: and ordered to be sent back to the house of Coinwons for their concurrence in - the aipead anent. The Earl of DARNLEY thought there' was a misplaced cconomy in this Bill, in curtailing the reward of persons making discoveries towards the North Pole, or with a view to a Noi:th \\ - est Passage; and though he could not object to the principle of economy, still he thought they were rather, on this subject, to use an homely adage, " penny wise and ponn‘l foolish," and that eco nomy might have been extended _much more carefully. to other Departments, tlian'to this ser vice, so dangerous to the individuals emplOyed iu it, but in which discoveries might be wade of the utmost importance ..to' science and to the in terests of the" country. Viscount MELvir.r.tbelieved,.that if the Noble Earl would read the Bill attentively, he would, find that it contained no restriction like that of whiCh he complained. An act had been passed fifty years ago, offering a reward of 50,0001. for the discovery of the Longitude. Since that time another Act had been lately. passed to allow his Majesty to divide the grant of 50,0001. into ginaller suns, to be giver' for va r i ous serv i c e s an d d i s cov-eries. ,lint this Act was Worded in so ob sctir'amanner,-that the man who. had deserved a reward of 50001. might also have laid claim to one of 20,0001. for the same object. The recent Bill was brought in to explain and amend those imperfections, and in fact to do the contrary of what:the Noble E'arl had been led to suppose, for whilst a certain sum was affixed as a reward for .discovering the Longitude, 20,0001. remained to be divided as it might be thought lit, for other serviees. - The Bill was then read a third time and passed.—Adjourned 'till Monday. HOUSE OF COMMONS. An Election Committee to try -the return for the Borough of Truro eras ballotted for this day, in consequence of which strangers were not ad mitted till half past four. NEwINGTON SELECT VESTRY BILL. Mr,ll. SUMNER moved the second reading of the . abovi: Bill. Mr. DENISON opposed .the motion. The Pa rish of Newington, he observed, contained 30,000 inhabitants, a great number of whom were not apprised of the projected measure in time to petition against it. lie believed that not more than 100 persuns'in the parish called for the pre sent. Bill. There had been - no meeting of the Guardians and Governors of the Poor relative to this measure. The whole business had been got up in a hurry, and the Bill was now moved to be read a second time, unknown to the parish. Un doubtedly the parishionerk had a right to know what was going forward, in order that theymight petition the House, if they deemed such a step necessary. in conclusion the. Tion. Gentleman moved, " that the Bill be read a second time this day fortnight." Sir R. WILsoN seconded the "amendment. To Move the iecond reading at the''` ftesent moment was to take the parish by surprise. lie had al ways. understood that the 'Bill was hot to . : be urged forwards during the present month, hi con sequence of the irregularity in giving the notices. — Mr. H. SUMNER maintained - that the Hon. GentleMah who had last spoken,: was quite mis informed on the subject.. The parish had had , every notice which could be desired on the sub ject.; There was therefore no surprise. At the same time he allowed that:, in consequenCe of the indisposition of the Solicitor for the Bill, there had been a little irregularity in the mode of giving the notices; for that instead c'f the three notices hav ing been given hi September, only two had been given in Sept., and the third in Oct. Not think ing; however, that that was asufficient•ground for• suspending the progress of the• Bill, he must resist the amendment. - • Sir R. WlLsos 'repeated, that • he had under stood from the Hon. Gentleman, that the „Bill was trot to' proceed until the notices had been rc gtilarly served. Mr. 11. SUMNER denied that he had ever said any thing which could lead to such an under, standing.
