We trust that our Countrymen who visit the Netherlands will soon deem it prudent to return to their own country, in consequence of the in silks and impositions to which they are expomed by the bigotry and rapacity of the people. We Mate the following tact on the authority of a Gentleman woo recently returned from that country, and upon whose accuracy we depend:— On the 2211 tilt. the British Consul, at Antwerp, %vent with his taMily and a party of friends upon an excursion into the country, a few miles distant, taking with them provisions, wine, &c. for ti►e purpose of a rural repast M the open air ; hut on account of the heat of the weather they found it expedient to enjoy their entertainment in the room of an adjacent Auberge. After this tefreshmeut the British Consul and a part of the Ladies returned to Ant +verp in one of the car riages, leaving the remainder of the'company to settle with the Ltudlord for the use of his room, which they conceived would be well paid for at the rate of a frank each ; but after the de partureot the carriage, tlx LandlOrd closed his doors, and made a demand twelve franks for each individual. The Gentlemen having reused to submit to this commons imposition. were as 'sailed by the Landlord and his Assi.taws, in the most violent manner, nor were the Ladies spared, - but abused and struck iudtscrimit►ately. The result was, that the company, among whom was Lord It. STEWART, was obl►ged to► comply with ;he demand, anti all the' party 'returned to Ant werp. .with evident marks of the furious;hostility which they had suffered. The Debate of last outit in the House of Com mow., respecting MAYNOOTH COLLEGE, is parti cularly entitled to the atteution of all the friends of our Holy Relibioei, as by Law Established.— We more immediately refer to the Speeches of Sir J. C. HIPPISLEY and Mr. BUTTr.R.ieutrH, which we have copiously detailed in onr Report of the Parliamentary yr9ceedin4s of yesterday. It ap pears from the speech of Mr. BUTTERWoRTH, who never rises but for some laudable purpose, More (-specially when the s, curii y Of the Protestant Faith is concerned, that the Roman Catholic Pr - esthciod iu Ireland will not suffer their Cre dulous followers to send their children . , upon pain of excouluxinication, to Protestant Schools, though merely to be instructed in Reading, lest they should be contaminated with Protestant Doctrines. We heartily wish that the Protestant Pr lesthood were equally zealous in preventing the contagion of Popish principles, for we fear that our Priesthood are by no means as active as the Disseminators of Popery. Mr. BUTTERWORTH also stared another interesting tact, to which we beg leave to draw the attention of our Readers. It is well known that THE POPE issued a Buli to prevent the circulation of the Bible in Poland ; but it was asserted, in defence of that Bull, that it was merely to prevent the Bible Societies in Poland from pro selyting . as they were charged with doing, Roman Catholic Childreti to the Protestant faith. But Mr. BUTTERWORTH stated that the Bible Socie ties in Poland were not in operation when that Ball was issued, and consequently the charge was wholly destitute of truth. We may judge from this fact what reliance can be placed on the sincerity of the Head of the Roman CATHOLIC CHURCH, or on the veracity of any of the Advocates for its principles. The whole pro ceedings of the Roman Catholics, must, to the conviction of all rational men, attached to our Religion and our Constitution, spew that the Papists have reached the acme of such in dulgence as ought to be granted to (bent, consistent with the safety of our Establishment in Church and State. Our own well-known at tachment to these vital interests of the Country has induced many distinguished Members of our Ecclesiastical Body, whose literary talents have been often exerted in the cause of the pure doe.- trines of our National Faith, to promise us their assistance, and by our own zealous efforts, and their enlightened aid, we trust that THE SUN will be conspicuous among the firm and effective sup. porters of THE PROTESTANT ASCENDANCY.

RXTRACT OP A LETTER FROM OUR CORRESPdNDENT AT LIVERPOOL, DATED JULY 7. The only arrival from the United States 'this day is the .4)7iity, Captain MooDY, from Charles too; sailed June 5. No vessels went to sea yes terday or to-day, owing to the wind not bei•.g fair. There are upwards of 100 sail of American vessels in this port. .Within the last month there arrived from the United States into this port 120 vessels. The following is a correct statement of imports by.l2s . .vessels, from tine 2d of last month, viz.— 161,1z59 barrels Flour, G 720 bags Wheat, 1258 tinarters ditto, 350 sacks ditto, 134 barrels ditto, 48 hogsheads ditto, 2718 tierces Rice, 1734 hogsheads Bark, 618 casks Flaxseed, 518-hogsheads Tobacco, 4291 barrels Turpentine, 2719 barrels 'Far, 1705 barrels Ashes, 7 Casks Bees-wax, 37 tierces and 3 barrels Nuts, G 7 bags and 4375 lbs. Wool, and 48,985 bales CottOn, with a vast quantity of Staves. SOUTH AMERICA. The National Intelligencer , of the 13th of June, has the following article:-- • IMPORTANT.-By a late arrival from Vi.ra Crux, of May 2,• we have obtained more exact in formation upon,the true situation of Mexico than that forwailkd by the Spanish Insurgents, pub lished in their Papers, and repeated in some of the North American "jornals. We 'learn, that in spite of the famous .ErcpeditiOn of 10,000 men, ships, frigates, &C., the arrival -of which was emphatically, but erroneously announced under the date of March 24, at New YOrk, a single schooner brig, under the Independent Flag, blockaded Vera Crnz, and has taken several p izes, one with 2,3,000 dollars in specie, and inter'epted a correspondence, which places the politicg shlitition of the country in its. trite point tof view. In one of these letters the Royalists say, the fire orbit - turret:Hun increases, and is not likely to subside, as .was hoped. The Insurgents make use of every amnesty granted them, only to escape to their comrades again on the first oppor tunity ;it appears the 'Republican Chiefs have found •the necessity of. -Ceriffirtil authority. Gen. -Ryon, report says,' has- Subjugated all thePto vince of Valladolid.- A new General has been sent to- the Province of Vera Cruz." (From the New York Even enk Pest of the 14th June.) A Demarara Paper Of the'3oth April brings another version of Revolutionary events in the vicinity of the Oronooko, in Terra Firma. A Spanish emigrant in Demarara had received information that a plot to pleliver the Spanish Port of Au gustura to the patriot chief Piar, had been providentially de tected;—that Fitzgerald, the traitorous Governor, hail been at rested and sent. in irons to the General in Chief, Morillo, at Varenag, for trial and punishment ;—and that his-princi pal associate, a Commissary, with a number of inferior abet tors, had been summarily tried,and shot. The proofs of the treachery were said to he ample. That Fitzgerald had occa sinned an artificial scarcity to promote it ;—and that great quantities of provisions, 'and 40,000 dollars in specie, were found concealed among his effect!. That two daykafter the detection of this plot, the Royalist Gen. Morales appeared in force before Angostura, from Caraccas, gave battle to the revolutionary army, under Gen. Cadana, defeated it, and com pelled it to retreat six leagues—is here it halted. Here they were followed by the Spanish General Sorati, with 1500 inert, from Fort Guyana ;—a battle ensued, when the latter was completely defeated by the Revolutionists, and himself, and most of his troops either killed or made prisoners. After his success, General Morales entered Augustura, tranquillized the public mind—gave orders for provisioning and reinforcing the garrison—and then sat out in quest of the party which bad defeated Sorati. The PRINCE REGENT dined at the French Am hassadoi's on Sunday, for the purpose of hearing the dramatic recitations of M. TALtda and Millie. GEORGES. WINDson, JULY B.—Yesterday her MAJESTY, accompanied by the Dochess of GLoncF.sTER and Princess AUGUSTA, with a select party, visited Princess ELIZABETH'S Cottage, where they par took of some refreshment, and returned to the Castle to dinner. Yesterday the PRINCK REGENT dined with the Marquis of CHoLMONDELEY• The Duke of YORK visited the PRINCE REGENT yesterday at Carlton-house. The trial of Major GRANT is expected to ter minate this day or to-morrow at farthest. In reporting Sir 3. C. HIPPISLEY'S speech, we omitted to state, that in speaking of concessions to the Roman Catholics, he noticed a Bill which, be stated, ought to he accepted as no inconsider able boon, and which had passed both Houses of Parliament in the present Session. By this Bill Catholics are relieved, both in the Navy and Army, from taking any disqualifying oaths on receiving commissions ; and the annual Act of In demnity exempts them from the penalties of omit ting them after being commissioned.

Barrisn INsTertmorc.—The Evening Exhibi. tions at this place, so liberally given to the higher Circles, to Artists, Amateurs, &c. &c. con cluded last night. The Rooms were crowded with visitors, among whom were many of the higher orders, and a large assemblage of elegant females. These Exhibitions constituted one of the most agreeable haunts of Taste and Fashion that we have ever attended, and if we had not the pleasure of still continuing to view by day the fine col lection of Paintings which cover the place, we should have " cast a longing lingering look" on taking leave of such a treasure of the Arts last night. We must repeat (pir thanks to the Go vernors of this admirable Exhibition for the gra ttiitons pleasure which they have thus afforded us, and our hope t h at an Institution so well calcu lated to' encourage British Genius may afford them a lull reward, the only one which they de sire, in the general improvement of the Fine Arts of this Country. Mr. WM. PoNsoNBY arrived in town yesterday morning from lieland, about au hour after the de- , cease of his much-lamented father. _ . The Act to abolish the punishment of-Palie Whipping on Female Offenders received the Royal Assent on Monday last, the 7th instant. Yesterday there was a grand fieldodny of the First Regiment of Horse Guards, on Wormwood Scrubbs. A poor man named Bartlett, who had 3 ccus coined himself to get over the cliffs- near West Lul worth, for the purpose of taking the. eggs and young of the sea-birds for food, ventured in that " dreadful trade" on Sunday se'nnight, when, by some accident, his foot slipped, and he was precipitated down a precipice several hundred feet perpendicular, and literally dashed to pieces on the rocks. Yesterday morning a fine boy, three years of age, son to Mr. Adcock, of Brook -street, Rat cliff-cross, fell head-foremost into a large tub full of boiling water, and was scalded to death the tub had been just filled out of the copper, and was left in the yard preparatory to• begin wash• ing, and in the absence of the servant, it is sup posed, the unfortunate little innocent, in leaning over the tub, overbalanced himself, and tumbled in head-torecnost, as he was found lying on his back in the water quite dead.
