' On the motion of the CHANWELLOR of the Ex tuEo.irKa, the Irish Gaol Fees Bill, the Scottish tialt Bill, and the Scottish Distillery Drawback Bill, were read a third tune-each, and passed. • Oft the motion of Mr. LusmiNGTON, the Ware housing of Goods Bill, the Irish Collectors of - I.7ustorns Bill, the Mohair Bounties Bill, the ACetens Acid and Draining Tiles Bill, and the .irgan Duty on Spirits Bill, • were each read a sN'ond time ; and ordered to be committed on The i'risoners' Rescue Bill, the Coasting Trade Bill, the East 'lndia Duties (inland) Acts, the Mohair Caudets Bounties Bill, went through committees, and the reports were ordered to be brought up on Monday. The reports ofthe Cinque Ports Salvage Bill, the Salvage Act Amendment Bill, the Stave Trade !Vets, .Arrack Importation, hops Exportation Drawback, and Silk Manufacture Act, were brought up and agreed to. CUSTOMS DUTIES BILL. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER brought - up. the report upon the Customs Duties Bill. • Mr. 1-lumr, objected to the mode in which a ciartse in this Bill indemnified the - West India trader in cotton, at the expense of the East India trader. If the former had not hitherto been fairly treated respecting the cotton duties, why not re rnusierate him for the amount he. had suffered, and put each party upon the same footing ? MABERLEY said, that as long as Govern ment turned the West India trade in the article alluded to into a sort of monopoly, restricting the West India grower as to his market, they were _bound to'repair the loss they imposed by their mode of proceeding. Mr. iticAnoo assented to that proposition, but complained altogether of the existence of the restrictive system. •The report was then received, and the Bill ordere&to be read a third time on Monday•next. he reports upon the Sheerness . Lands,and Navy Property Bills, were postponed until Tuesday, at the desire of Mr. Calcraft,,who wished some ex planation relative to the former. COURT OF CHANCERY. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR gave notice, that he should, early net Session, renew his motion respecting fce business of the Court of Chancery, and the appellant jurisdiction. Mr. GRENFELL, gave notice, that when the claim of General Desfourneaux was again under clicussion, he should certainly take the sense of the House upon that most unwarranted and un warrantable grant. EAST INDIA COLLEGES. Mr. Huron moved for a series of returns from the East India Colleges at Haley bury and Addis com be, showing the state of education, and its ex pence for fitting cadets and civil and medical officers for India, and the number of writers and others sent out from this country. He stated that his object in moving for these returns was to show the facility with which the military officers employed in India might be taught the Hindos tannee language, and also the importance of their understanding that language, from the uniform practice of the native troops referring to their de cision all disputed matters. It was his intention to bring the subject in the course of the present Session under the observation of the House; but finding the present Chairman and Deputy of the East India Company alive to the importance and necessity of the object, he trusted there would he no necessity of doir ° i more than showing the fa cility with which the Hindostannee might be . taught; three months' tuition would be sufficient. After a few words-from Lord •BINNING, in ap probation of the Hon Member's object, the re turns were ordered, as well as others, showing the amount of East India Superannuation Allow ances and .Pensions, and the' produce of Queen Anne's Bounty up to•the latest period- of the ac counts. The Committee on the Appropriation Bill was fixod for Friday next, when Mr. Hume said the Right lion. Gentleman (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) might prepare himself for a long de bate upon the question. - A return was ordered of all Members holding pinces under the Crown in the first Parliament of King William, and of each of the succeeding reigns, so far as the same could be made out. The other Orders of the Day were then dispos ed of, and . the . House at 4 o'clock adjourned until Monday. [DEBATE OF FRIDAY NIGHT.] COMMITTEE OE SUPPLY—AUSTRIAN LOAN. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved the Order of the Day for the [Tolls:. to resolve itself into a Commit tee of Supply.—On the question being put, - Mr. It. SMITH (of Bucks) rose to make his promised mo-- tion concerning the Austrian Loan. His motion, he said, was for a Copy of a Disnatch alluded to in the Dispatekof Lord Stewart of the sth of November, lBlB, _ containing the reason , ings of Prince Metternich and Count Stadion, on the subject of the Austrian Loan. In 1795 and 1797 the Government of Great Britain advanced sums of money to the Government of Austria, which that Government now asserts were in the nature of a subsidy and not as a loan. Undoubtedly it never was so • considered by Great Britain. At the thne the loan was made Mr. Pitt said, that it was a transactien comideted in the face of Europe;' and the good faith of Austria could, not be doubted because justice as well as policy would induce her to observe her engagements, as a breach of faith -on her part would be fatal to her interests as well as her character. Mr. Pitt' went further, he declared the gratification he felt at concluding a bar-. gain so favourable in a financial point of view to this country.— Lord Grenville ' in his correspondence with Lord Henley, afrongly urged the claim of Great Britain on Austria; and the Noble Lord (Loßdonderry), in the course of the present Session, 412clared that debt to be uncancelled and undhninished. Why, then, for what secret cause were. the people of this country obliged to pay the interest for so long a period, of six millions of money, and to suffer a loss on the entire of 21 millions and a -•., • r - half? Of -the existence of the aebt. rig doubt 0. - dst,a. The HilbuSe Was aware that two Conventions Were signed at Vienna +etween Great Britain airlAtiStrih:, - the • first dated the sth of nay, 1795; the second, the Ifithof May, 1797. House was also aware that every'article irethoiet , .yo INeaties had been vio lated by the Austriaa..Government. In the year 1318, the vernment of this confab , made an Ciffsm to Austria, to taketrm, her for shipping for a part of the debt.. With that °Tex Austria. ' refused to comply, instead of acceding to it. She altogether de , nied the existence of the debt—The Hon.. Gentleman next ad verted to the,very distressed state of the country, and the heavy pressure of taxation. The Honourable Member for Sussex had very candidly stated that things should remain in their present state. The farmers were all but ruined ; so desperate, indeed, were the financial embarrassments of the country, that some Gentlemen suggested the propriety of reducing the interest of the Public Debt.. They thought the common welfare would be best consulted by , running a risk •bf - dtstroy ing the public credit—that credit which Mr. Sheridan called the terror of one enemies—the blobd arid marrow of the country, deprived of which she would appear in -the eyes of Europe, not as . a lifeless body, but a helpless in significant trunk. In the desperate state of the country, the people at least had a right to demand an inquiry—they had a right to know why 21 millions of their money should be with held by a Government which had gained so much by the late war. Whilst the finances of Great Britain exhibited so me lancholy a prospect, those of Austria were in a flourishing con dition. Austria had paid off not only her old debt, but a great part of the new. The Emperor of Austria was possessed of more personal fortune than any Sovereign in Europe. his Italian provinces broughtin a revenue of eight millions. So strong indeed were the finances of Austria, that she was enabled to go to war against Naples, as a volunteer, .unealleilfbr by any aggression on her Government, and merely to preserve the pre-. tensions of legitimacy in opposition to the feelings and the liberties of the people. 'The Honourable Gentleman next alluded to the decided conduct of Lord - Grenville respect ing this transaction. That Noble Lord felt that the national honour was compromised by ' the" refusal of Austria to, ac knowledge her solemn engagements made with this country. So decided was the conduct of Lard Grenville, , , so marked his disapprobation of the want of faith and honour , that he had nearly prevented the second coalition against France. The Noble Lord (Londonderry) had placed Austria in this situation —he had put upon the Table of that House papers, from which it manifestly appeared that she owed this country a sum of up wards of 21 millions—no doubt remained of the fact.. He ' called then upon the Noble Lord to state why Austria objected in limine to acknowledge the debt ; and whether the people of England were quietly and meanly to submit at once to a loss and to an insult ? Ha could not believe that the power which stood foremost in the Holy Alliance could be guilty of conduct whieh, in common life, would be called by the name of swindling. The Hon. Gentleman concluded with moving for a Copy.of the Dis patch of the Honourable Gordon, alluded .to.in the Dispatch of Lord Stewart, dated the sth of November, 1818, and containing the reasoning of Prince Metternich and Count Stadion on the subject of the Debt due by Austria to this coun try by virtue of the Treaties of 1795. and 1707. The Marquess of LONDONDERRY observed, though the Hon. Gentleman had entered into the general question of the Austrian Loan, yet, as he had not concluded with a motion which embraced the general question, the Ilouse would, he thought, excuse him in abstaining from the merits involved in that consideration. If he yeas disposed to contend that the Debt was cancelled, or was ready to compromise it in any manner, then the Honourable Gentleman would have a fair claim for calling on the Government to shew upon what grounds they were prepared to do so. But that was not the way in which he regarded the transaction. He certainly would be guilty of de ceiving the House, if he represented the Debt as assets in our possession ; for, if we were to take the whole concern into our own hands, it would scarcely amount to the sum. He still re garded it as a debt due by Austria, and was satisfied that that Power would stand ill in the opinion of all other Powers, if she refused to regard it as a debt, until she received a quietus from ' this country. At all events, the question would not be placed in a better state for negociation ' after the decision of that House. If the Correspondence was produced, the Hon. Gentleman might be disposed to give an importance to - the arguments of Count Metternich, which Ministers might deny; and, therefore, lie thought, the best course would be to leave them to the discretion of those who were responsible. When a country was disposed not to do a thing, the old and established course was to find out the best reasons it could for not doing it. . . . . Mr. WA RRE expressed his satisfaction at the admission of the Noble Lord, that the sum due was a loan and not a subsidy. The Noble Lord had said, that if we took the whole concern into our hands we should not be greatly benefited—meaning; he supposed, that if we had the whole of the Austrian Treasury we should not find the sum. With respect to a compromise, all that could be said of the disposition of Austria was, that when we asked for ship timber they told us we should not have a single stick. The House was indebted to the Mover of the question, which he considered one of great importance ; and it was impossible that any person could go through the Papers without imbibing a very bad opinion of the Austrian faith. He did not understand that part of the Noble Lord's speech which alluded to the imprudence of producing those Papers, and wished to know whether the House was to concclude that a negociation was now going on ? The Marquess of LONDONDERRY said, that no negocia tion was at present going on. Mr. WARD said, that he agreed with the Honourable Gen tleman that last sat down, in thinking that the Honourable NI over was entitled to the thanks of the House, and of the country, for agitating this question. • A vast sum of money was owing to us from a Foreign State. In the present embarrassed state of our finances, when retrenchment on the one hand and taxation on the other had been carried to their utmost limits, it was the duty of the House to inquire what chance we had of recovering it. A small part of such an enormous debt, if repaid, would afford considerable relief', and still greater satisfaction to the people of England. Ile could not, however, agree with' his Honourable Friend in pressing for the production of the dis patch to which he referred. The Noble Secretary of State had assured them that it would be prejudicial to the progress of the negociation, and he (Mr. (yard) could easily conceive in what manner. Suppose for instance, the Austrian Government to have insisted upon certain principles, from which there might be still some hope that they might recede, how much more dif fiult that retractation weadd be rendered after they had been pub lished in the face of all Eitope. He felt it difficult to under stand on what points the negociation could turn.—lf Austria denied the obligation, never was there a more open and scan dalous breach of faith. If she stood upon the plea of inability, the question no doubt assumed a different aspect. The fin ances of all despotic Governments, more especially those of Austria, are enveloped in an obscurity which no eye can pene trate. The grand principles -by which they seemed to be go ' verned were concealment and irresponsibility; but-though the nature of the case did not admit of complete proof, there were circumstances 'that made one suspect that-Austria was by no means so little -able to discharge her obligations as shd would pretend; not, indeed, to pay so vast a sum in one year, or in two years; or in three, for as the Noble Marquess had 1 - 4nted, so much money was . probably not to be found in all the country, but to put it in a train of gradual liquidation. AUstria was a country of great natural resources, which were continually rising up in spite of that ancient and venerable system of maladminis tration that was so dear to the Princes and Statesmen of the Imperial House. It was true, that during all the early part of the struggle with France her efforts had been very great, but it was equally true, that for some years before the fall of the Em peror Napoleon, she had enjoyed complete repose under the shadow of his protection —years, to us of the heaviest expence, and most exhausting exertion. .The two last wars in which she had been engaged were but short, and at the peace, by which England gained immense glory, but Was content to forego selfish objects ; the Emperor, who had gained no glory at all, was compensated by more solid advantages. Never was la bourer of the eleventh hour so richly repaid. He was placed not only on an equal footing with those that had borne the toil and heat of the day, but on a far superior one. He might, in deeti, justly say, that the sacrifices lie had made on the side of feeling and character, were such as entitled him to a - liberal equivalent on that of interest. He had violated the most solemn public engagements; he had broken asunder the closest domes tic ties—he had degraded hisgrandson—he had made his daugh ter a widow, by condemning his son-in-law to perpetual exile and imprisonment—apunishmentdue,perhaps,to the guilty am bition of that great disturber of mankind—just from Russia— just from Prussia—just from England, but from Austria, alto gether 'cruel, perfidious, and wicked. For these deeds his Impe rial Majesty had received Dalmatia, the Tyrol, Soltsburgh, all Lombardy, and all the Venetian States—some of the finest and richest provinces—some of the noblest and most famous cities in all Europe, and from these he had never ceased to draw money - to the capital of what is ironically called his paternal government, by every art and every severity of fiscal exaction. The case, indeed, will be widely different if Austria could' say, " true it is, that these are rich and . fertile countries, but we have not taxed them to the utmost—we have purposely spared them—we are desir ous to conciliate. the affections of the people, and to contrast the mildness of our Government with the seventy of the French despotism that preceded it. But, in fact she had sacrificed , every thing to pelf—money had been the only object of ter Government--under her iron rule, no ease, no prosperity could be enjoyed. When the fertile soil of those fertile countries poured forth its immense produce, the condition of the inhabi tants was not improved by it. For then, ton, came the Austrian extortioner to stand betwixt them and the bounty of nature and Providence, and to demand for his master the whole difference betwixt famine and plenty. And then were we to believe that the Emperor had not a single florin in his treasury to repay to the suffering people of England money advanced, in order to save blui from being hurled from his Throne by the The Paris Papers of Thursday furnish no ad ditional particulars respecting the actual state of affairs within the Ottoman empire, but it would seem the most revolting excesses continue to be practised against the Greeks, and all who are supposed to favour their cause. The following victorious l - ; . armies of. • &publican France A. timely aid which might have accomplished its object, had not his Coun cils been guided by a Cobentel, end his armies led by a Mack. Ile (Mr. W.) was convinced that if the negociation were conducted with vigour, and in that high and peremptory tone which, under such circumstances, England had a right SD assume, it could not fail of success. He did n t rely upein die gratitude or good•faith of the Impe r i a l ,Mim s rs ; they had disclaithed both. But the fri dship of Englak •WilS too i li. important to be risked for a compWatively trifling oTject. No dount Austria was a valuable ally to England, but the ad vantages were not equal on both sides. England could main tain her independence—her power and pre-eminence, not only without, but in spite of Austria—but - Austrian ascendancy entirely was the work of England. . If Austria . were left to herself, she must quickly yield. to her enemies, foreign and doniestic. No country was more hated at home and abroad —by her neighbours and her dependents. She was hated by the great Powers, to whom she was a rival,—and by the small ones,- to whom she was an oppressor—but,. most of all, by those Provinces , which she had acquired by fraud and violence, and - which she governed by the same means by which she had obtained them. She was hated by Russia—bated by Prussia—hated by the smaller German States—hated in Poland—hated in Italy—hated, even, in her ancient hereditary dominion of the Tyrol, whose loyal and va liant struggle, in her behalf, had forined one of the most splen did chapters in-the history of the late war, but which she had alienated by cruelty and injustice—and where, never again, would a drop of blood be shed, or an arm Aroluntarily rais ed, in her cause. If Austria persevered in an act of inso lent barefaced injustice towards her only firm and powerful friends, it was because she flattered herself - that they might be duped with impunity. That it was the duty of his Majesty's Ministers to prevent ; and, in the confidence that they would not neglect that duty, he gave them his vote. TherwoUld - be much assisted in the performance of it, if Gentlemen possessing a weight and influence that did not belong to him, would unite in expressing a just indignation at the misconduct and ingra titude of an Ally whom they had been so often called upon by the Crown to assist—and never called upon in vain, in the }war of her peril and her need. Mr JAMES supported the motion. , Mr. IL SMITH declared himself unwilling to press the-ques don under all the circumstances, and the motion was• conSe, quently withdrawn. -! , .

" ODESSA, MAY 18.—A Fier three weeks' cessa tion of intercourse by sea with Constantinople, there arrived on the I6th, 8 vessels,which had sail ed from Constantinople on the 14th, and which had not experienced the least obstacle in passing the Straits. According •to their accounts the Turks of the capital continued, in spite of the efforts of the Government, to practise the most revolting excesses against the Greeks. The Go vernment, on the other hand, was ordering for execution all who had any information regarding the Greek insurrection, or who were accused of favouring it. _The Turks have entirely destroyed 17 Greek chuiches at Constantinople. " VIENNA, JUNE 9.—Letters from Constanti nople of the 18th May assure us, that the new Patriarch of the Greeks did not die a natural leath, but was strangled hi his apartments by he orders of the Grand Seignor. G ' • le reeks pretend to have killed 1,500 Turks in the ?Irak of Galatz, while they only lost 300 men.

It is expected that a camp will be formed at that time in our neighbourhood. In order to prevent the introduction of the plague, an agreement has been made with Oldenburg by which no ship from the Levant, the Ports of the Adriatic and the Mediterranean, or from Morocco, shall be admitted unless it is satisfactorily proved that it has performed quarantine in the regular and complete manner. " FRANKFORT,RTNE 4.—lt is well known that the Leipsig fair is regularly visited by numerous. Greeks who do considerable business there. These transactions, which are not always com pleted by payment in ready money, lead to obli gations to be discharged the ensuing fair, by punctual fulfilment of which the Greeks have hitherto been distinguished. At the last fair, however, only a single individual of that nation appeared as the authorized agent of all his countrymen who had obligations of this nature to discharge. lie was commissioned to excuse their non-appearance on account of the present state of things in their country, which likewise made it impossible for them to pay the sums that were due from them this fair. At the same time he added, in the name of his employers, the assurance that the payments should be im mediately made when the state of things at home rendered it in any degree possible. " FIZANKFORT, JUNE I.s.—An article dated-- 4 Frontiers of Moldavia, May 20,' in the Gazette of to-day : gives rather a more detailed statement of the storming of Galacz, by the Turks, on the 15th May. The number of Greeks in the place was about 2,000, above 4,000 having marched to Wallachia. The knowledge of this induced the Turks to attack with 6,000 men. The number of the killed is stated at .5,000, the Turks after the defeat of the Greeks having massacred all the inhabitants, including women and children, and then set the town on fire.—By an order of the Imperial Aulic Council, fugitives from Mol davia and 'Wallachia are to be allowed to enter Transylvania, so long as there is no Turkish Army in those provinces, but as soon as such an army has entered there, they are to be repelled by force as Rebels." By accounts from Celebes Island, we are in formed of every thing being tranquil in that quarter. The Rajah of Boni had not been at Macassar, and it is doubtful, notwithstanding the differences between him and the British Govern ment, which are not settled as yet, if he will act offensively against the Netherland Government, of whom he has formerly been a faithful ally.— Tlis corvette the Galuthea was lost on the 25th of May last, on the rocks of Caning lladijee, close to Banca ; part of the stores have been saved. An investigation is now being held of this event.—( Batavian Courant, July 18.) The conduct of Austria towards this Country, in the attempt to convert a loan into a subsidy, is of so extraordinary a nature, that it is -calcu lated to bring indignation and contempt upon the Austrian,Government. The subject is particularly important in the present pecuniary state of this - Country_ Having given on Saturday the whole of thatimportant document,The Report of the Agri cultural Committee, we were fiet able to insert. so full an account as we wished of the Debate chi ttni Austrian Loan: We have therefore this day in serted the report of the Debate on that subject, as it appears in The Morning Chronicle of Satin - day last, for whatever may be the opinions and principles of that *Paper, we have no 'reason to dotibt its . accuracy in its, record of Parliamen tary Proceedings . .

SMITH, the. Member for Bucks. REPORT OF THE AGRICULTURAL COMMITTEE. —On Saturday we inserted this highly. interest ing and important Parliamentary Document at length. 'lt deserves the earnest attention and serious consideration of the whole cotiatry ; and of the Governments and People of all other States. _ - It furnishes allusions to facts—it contains reason.: ings upon principles—and it makes admissions of existing effects and calculations of prospective consequences—more deeply affecting the welfare and prosperity of all clagses in society, than those set forth in any Parliamentary exposition which has for a great number of years been sub mitted to the country. We need scarcely say - that we trust the enlightened Readers of TnE SUN have given it attentive examination. The reflections to which it is calculated to give rise— the knowledge which it embodies and disserui- nates—the conclusions to which it must conse quently- bring the mind of every thinking man who investigates the subject of which it-treats, will richly repay the time and trouble that may be• devoted -to the research. All men begin to feel the necessity of tracing, up the real causes of our difficulties and embarrassments to their true source, and of carefully inquiring into the origin, and vigilantly observing the progress acrd effects, of those mighty involutions of the national interests, which, by the extent, magnitude, and resistless force of their movements, alternately elevate States to the highest summits of prosperity and power, or repress and paralyze their energies, and plunge them into the woes and weakUess of adversity.—Before these great considerations—, the paramount importance and value of this high inquiry—the mere party politics or the day take a subordinate station, and sink into comparative insignificance. It is our intention to devote a series of articles to the complete discussion of the ' subject matter of the Agricultural Report,—to a full, free, and bold developerneut of the real con dition of the Agricultural interest, and of the circumstances which have necessarily produced the present unfavourable revulsion,—and to a careful elucidation of those principles, the right application of which to practice is calculated to extricate the country from its embarrassments; and the misapplication of which, or of other princi ples having an opposite and erroneous tendency, must prolong existing evils, and oven induce an extensive and ruinous aggravation of the calamities under which we now suffer, and an increase of the peril with which we are at present threatened. — The first reflection to which the reading of titO Report seems necessarily to give rise, is one, cer tainly, consolatory in itself, and which involves and recognizes the hope and promise of future amendment and advantage, on gratifying and not uncertain grounds. It is impossible to examine the Report without being satisfied that its sub ject is now much better understood than at any former period. If the Committee had not yet acquired sufficient knowledge to enable them to recommend efficacious measures of alleviation, they had at any rate made such considerable ad vances in the acquisition of wisdom, as has pre vented them from, suggesting- legislative inter ference. and proceedings which might have in creased the. difficulties they were intended to re move. If they were not provided with a - remedy for the diseased and sickly "condition of our Agriculture, they are at least sufficiently skilful to avoid resorting to nostrums and quackery ; and to know that the disorder would be increased r ather than diminished by the application of the pretende d specifics which many of the friends of the patient recommended. This, therefore, is in itself - a great point gained. The nature of the disease has been investigated and recognized—its spnr toms pointed out and distinctly defined—and 1. 116. present inability, on the part of those to whom its investigation was committed, to devise a legis lative remedy, frankly acknowledged. On the maxim, then,. that the knowledge of a disease '5 half the cure, we may safely indulge a hope t hat the full discovery of an ample remedy is not Dr distant. The Parliamentary Committee, by the frankness with which they have acknowledg ed the intricacy and difficulty of the research, auk ' , by the wise and judicious manner in which the 11 have abstained from prejudicing the public roil n favour of any crude or ill-digested . prole i or theory, have left the inquiry open to t , united intellect and experience of the co o° try. In the multitude of Counsellors th e ,, e is wisdom. It is the interest and h .1 duty of all parties, 'and of every indiviLi!ii to examine and re-examine the, question, uut( 0 11 satisfactory solution.of this great problem ' o e have been obtained.
