Mr. LOCKIIMIT, from , the King's Garden at Kew, and . the Scrjeant of Marines,' were left at Bahia, not being considered as sufficiently reco• vered for the sea voyage. Our Readers will rgcul• lent that we were the first to communicate all the eiteums:ances attending this Expedition end its result. The Party Organ of this morning endeavours Sri I sivo lid u f e the flepnyt of the Lords' Committee ja thy case of the /ate Union Society, which liveth in its worthy Secretary, Monsieur CLeauv. is its modest postulate " It will be recollected, that the Report of the Secret Committee of the ; pause Of Lords rested their statement upou,the supposed proceed,. ings of three sorts of Societicsi The Londoit WO' it,' and its branch Spencean Phi lanthropists, and some Hampden flov to pulse over the mini of grammar in saying that the " Report rested their State• Brent," we really think , the Chronicle taxes the memory anti consciences of Its !leaders too se verely when it asks them to recollect what its own columns of only Friday last prove to be en tirely destitute of fotindation.' We will only call upon the Public not 'to be misled by arguments founded On on utter falsehood. 'rite Report of the house of Lords neither says what is here stated, nor any thing like it. -liven Monsieur CLRAtiv, more 1110deat than the Cirortiefe, arms not tillage that it does. 'flue passage is as follows, and we ask its , common decency if it at all resenibles the assertion of the Party organ It appears that there is Et London Union So, cicty, and branch Unions corresponding with it, and affiliated to it. Others of these Societies have adopted the name of Spenrean Philanthropists; end it was by Members of a Club or this descrip tion that the plans of the conspirators in Loudon were discussed and prepared for execution," It is hinted that I%iarslial liattTataso „and his 'Family intend to quit St: illelenn shortly—the ( pretence is, the education of the children. If thi, is permitted, a watchful eye will no doubt be kiln on BERTRAND'S movements. The virulence of Party has often been directed against Ministers, on the subject of the lower classes of people, and particulatly of those who °me under the provisions of the Poor Laws. Mi. nisters love been accused of an indifference to their welfare, and of being regardless of the pressure of Hinge Laws on the general body eat the people. Lord Citamattv.AGrt, in particular, seems to have Steen selected upon most occasions for the spleen and malignity of his political opponents. IV' conceive, however, that the most hitter of his Lordships political enemies[ifihey have any feel ing of real patriotism and any respect for great talenti, eXeiled ‘vith a tint benc , ', , tileoc*e and with comprehensive views. lutist hetet: heard:ids 511e1:01 an Friday night in the Ifous'e of 0111U1101151 MI the SOiefitiAlbe Poor Laws, with adtaration.: The Noble Lord on this occasion displiiyed statesman-like knowltAlge Faui sagacity, as Well as a kind attention to the distruhses of the inferior' .classes of the community, %flitch entitle him to the esteem and veneration of his countrymen. It was highly gratifying to hear hint s,ity, what indbe'd, Might naturally tic expected, that his alleag r ues were anxious' to co , operate tetoollllY in every !Wog that might tend to lessen distress anti the public borthens. Ilis obiervatiOns upon the ten dency of charitable establishments to dintinish that dignity of character, and sense of independence, which accompany the efforts of industry, were par ticularly entitled to notice, and evidently made a strong impression upon the House. lie justly ob served, that when these feelings' were subdUed and public spirit decayed, it was difficult, if` mitt impossible, to restore them. Ile pointed out the that resulted 'flout those acquisitions, which were obtained by the diligence, and ens- totged by the discretion of the individuals who possessed them, observing that they conferred a degree of happiness even far superior to that wlt;eit : wealth and power can bestow, and contrasted* with' the languor and indiffet cum which tended those who were iLdneed to Max. from their labours by the hope of eleemosynary sub, sistence., Upon this principle, his Lordship main tained that it would be better to employ pee). lilt, who Were unable to fool occupation sufficient to support themselves, to dig boles one day and fill them upon the next, ,because even such ern, ployment kept them in habits hi industry, and sus tained their tense Of independence. It would also keep them in health, and preserve their bodily powers in due order for the time when more useful and profitable labour might occur. Upon the whole, his Lordship not only ac quitted Ministers of the charge of indifference to the ease and comfort of the lower orders Of the people, but manifested a proftmqd and philtu.o phi id knowledge of the human heart, and the nature of society; . as,well as a (Inc sense of that 'd'gnityof charterer which ought to animate chaises' of the community, and which gives grace and energy to a State, in the estimation of all surrounding nations.

When Sir 1-luosota took the corn- . mend at the _lsland, litroNavaaTa gave himself Malty airs ; —one was—he refused to see any nisi-' tors . ; atrother---he would not take any ont-door ' ste• exercise.:. It would appear, that, as he could not obtain the smallest relaxation of the regulations established for his safety, he hereby intended to render them practically inoperative. PUrsuing this course, the want of exercise in the open air be came a powerful auxiliary to his perturbed state .of mind; in sapping the foundation of his health ; so that now his body iliscOvers strong symptoms of weakness and emaciation, and his mind of sullen despair. Ile does nothing with regula rity that depends upon himself : be will dine, in he course of a week, at almost every hour of the day, and night—from twelye at noon tonil midnight. Ile is necessitated, the mo mem he rises in the morniug, to go into a war,m bath, and there stay until he feels his sluggish functions invigorated—the failure of which would . quickly threaten his life. These new, cheerless, • and uilaocial manners, as may be easily imagined, have produced in his followers something Itie a distaste for the company of a banished Fon peror,—LAs Cases 'has indeed plainly manifest ed a defection. It is expected that lie is play ing the game of a genuine E enchman of the Buo napartean school. Soon. after EtloNaPallTa ar rived there Las CASRs Commenced, as is known, employMent in collecting materials for writing the life of his master ; and that he might, in leis work, represent every circumstance in the most itcposing light, and give proper . colouring to his imputed faults, wider thesemblanee of a 1)4 , h-wrought feeling of honour for his bisto ri,:al fame, he wrung from BtioNAVARTR even what was the secret spring of all the principal tic, tions of hit devious and active life. litioNA rArar, it is said by opver unbosomed biro s& so freely to any person before.

LAS CAS E S remonstrated, saying it was all the money he • bad in the world; but he at length complied. There is a mystery in this circum stance, which time must elticidati. BOONAPARTR is so fully persuaded orthe impossibillty of his ever making his escape from St. Helena, that he `'has been heard in gusts of passion to express hint: self to this effect to BEivrantin.

BOONAPARTB ant his Suite of what rank he was, that he might be suitably treated ; but the reply ,was—" he is - a poor devil of a fellow ; if it will do Nut any good, call hint Captaiit„ but he has no more right to .it than this servant"---tot 'ling to one of 800- NAPARTeS dottieStiei, It•appeArs that PoNtTow i sitt's'regimeittal coats, Of,,which he has variety enough for any military beau, are the only cre• dentials-he possesses of his. high rank.''
