SPRAKER OF 'THE SWIM or COMMON/. AND
FRANCIS JOHN COLLIS AN, ESQ. SBRJIANT AT

Mr. Arroaate-Genaast. moved for a rule to
shetv cause why, in the two last causes, there should
not be a trial at her. They b.ing of the smut
tendency, with the libertY of the Colin. he wouW
take then, together. Sir Francis Burdett had been
advised to Laing three actions. one against. the
Speaker of the House of Coinnsims, for hailing
issued a warrant for the purpoee of inipriaisorug
him; the second, against the Serjeant at Arms, for
vomit* the wnirmt ; and the third, agents' the
Earl of Moira, for receiving him as a prisoner in
the Tower. The Speaker had justified, and his
idea rao, that the Plaintiff had been guilty of a
gross bbt4 upon the Noose of Common., fur which
they had adjudged him to tic imprisoned, and that
Ise. the Speaker, shmld issue his writ mid deliver it
to the Sesleant at Arius to be executed. To this
plea Sir mewls hail demurred. The Sericant at
Arms had entered a plea much the seine as the
' Speaker, but with this addition, that the Plaintiff
had withdrawn himself front the excLutiou of the
warrant; and that lie, the Serjeant, was iiiiliged to
force his 4°A-1 for the purpose of executing it.
To which Cie Plaintiff had replied, that more
violence had been mode use of in executing the
warrant than was 1. gal or necessary, which alarm-
ed and distreined both his family aid himself, •Istl
that be had been conveyed to prison in a most
unseemly manner. The Earl of Moira's plea
stated, that he received the Plaintiff into the
"rower by the order of the House of Commons ; to
which the Plaintiff had replied, that he ackuow.
ledged the Houle! of Commons was sitting at the
time, but contended that the warrant was illegal.
—Mr. Arroaster-Gansast. said. there were two
great qmsitions to he decided ; first. the power of
the [louse to commit ; second, as to the legality of
the manner of executing the 'arrant. The privileges
of the House itself were railed in question. The
pubhrc were marls interested, and the Tirane's had
excited much agitation in their minds. In a case
of so unu h importance, he trusted their Lordships
would not think it too mach to ask for a rule to
Shel, cause why there should not he a trial at Bar.
Lord Ect.ensoluunn—it You must draw up
your rule for Michaelmas term, the present is too
far advanced fns: it to be heard. Has notice for trial
been given in any of the actions ?"
Mr. ATTOEICY GENCRAI---.4 In the two last,
my Lord. I should have moved for the ride before,
only waiting for the notices of trial."
Lord Ett.estamtoonn—*, I askant the question.
because if notices of trial were not served, the rule
would be irregular."
Mr. Arrows EY GINEItAI,--tt 'assure your Lord.
ships that there has not been any unnecessary delay
on our part, except that I did not wish to force the
Plaintiff Oil with his proceedings, until after he was
liberated from, his confinement."
Lord EI.f.LNIIOROUGH—" Take the rule for
Michaelmas Term."

The gumless. in the cause against the Speaker,
will be argued on the Dem.irrer.

On Saturday lest an inquest was held, at Iladen,
in the parish of Kiiitoone, by Mr. R. G. DMA-
SINK. one of the Coroners for the county, on the
IsoclT of 6101‘11 LONNA*, a footman iu the family
of 1 ROMAS WATussotr PATI.EIt. Esq who shot
himself with a pistol in the abdomen, about two in
the afternoon of Thursday sennight. and died from
the mortification of the wound about two in the fol.
lowing m ryt, when it appearing in evidence that
the deceased had sheen us symptoms of an un-
sound omit', hot that he had preuteditately accom-
plidied his dreadful purpose. the jury found a
verdict of felo de se; and on Sunday morning his
body was deposited in a crossroad on Barham
Owns, in the above parish.—This unfortunate
Suicide was about rin years old, and the cause
which induced the fatal act was an unfounded
jealoul of one of the female servants in the house,
to whew lie was attached. The ball entered the
pit of the stonaucli, and passed obliquely out on the
right side. from whence it lodged in the wainscot of
the rnom.—During the twelve hours that he lin-
gered, he expressed no compunction or regret for
the horrid VIM* he but committed.

Early on Thursday last was round drowned,
Mr. Jugs SALTBIL. eldest son of Mr. RICUAID

was returning to his father's house late in the pre-

fell into the water.

are paid only as seamen by the French Govern-
meat. Occasional assistance is afforded to mas-

soners who have lost a limb, or who are disabled
from future service, are given three sole per day,

THE THEATRE.

Au extreme preys of matter los obliged us to
omit, many articles. on this solve!. We hope,
however, that, if we occaaionally occur to it, amid
the sound of arum, we shall not, like tie Athenian,
be accused of atteuding to the Theatre, and ueglect.
ing the State.
'rhe state of the Dublin theatricals hos latterly
been so degraded, as to impel us to seize, with
eagenatss, any improvement in the situation of the
provincial. Indeed, with the. exception of Miss
Smith, the resident comptely of eva.v-street pre-
sents nothing which can claim the dignity of eri-
ticisut. Either by sannuNeinent or atirrarinogestreet,
the performers who were wont to delight ns in
Dublin have been dispersed ; and, as the select of
the inetropolio. have been driven either to Eugland
or the provinces, so the sweeping of .. E4' iglaal
arid the proviuces" have supplied their place—un-
less, when the weather becomes too hot to visit u
large Theatre with safety, some actor from Covent-

to all the Fashionables to its neighbourhood. For a

London were employed in decorating the rooms,
and painting transparencies. The great parlour,
and six of the adjoining rooms, were commodiously
fitted up for card and dressing-rooms. The sup-

ICoutinurd from a former Paper I

In the Estitnste No. 3, of receipts in tsow.g,
credit is taken for the tedium: not yet used ofiliss
two millions of bonds, which the Company were
empowered, by the Act of last Session, to issue.—
Still the sem wanted, to meet the exigencies of the
ensuing year, amounts to nearly Ise millions and
au half sterling. That the national interest is con•
cerned in the support of the Company, mid that,
under all the circumstances described in this state-
ment, they are entitled to public support iu the
present exigence of their affairs, it is hoped will
not be disputed. In what manlier that support
should be afforded, it is for Government and for
Parliament to detiTmine. A few observations,
hrovei er, upon this subject, shall be submittsd.—
The present is a must tuauspicious time fur the in-
crease of the capita! stock. and possibly the ru-
mour* already afloat, of • French Expedition
through Persia, would obstritet the success of such
an attempt; neither e mild it be advisable to ex-
tend the ilsue of bonds beyond the sum of five
_ow-
millions, to which the law now permit. the t"
patsy to go, for there is always a danger of their lie.
leg poured in for teas, end other goods, purchased
at the sults. It is free, that our exports of British
manufactures, which rare estimated to be continued
on the usual large scale, might be lessened. and, in
ease of necessity, recourse must rristionbtedly be had
to this measure; but it would lie very inexpeili: at,
both as deranging the established routmeof the Coca.
puny's commerce. and as exposing a auinerous body
of manufacturers of this country, who now have
little employment besides the Company's, to aura-
Tided distress. The •debt still owing by Govern-
meta to the Company, although again-t it may be
placed the contingencies of the year 1809.10, is one
obvious resource; and on this year
ittuay be per-
mitted to remark, that if, some years ago, it was a
great hardship put upon the Company to cot them
down so much in the repayment of large .,
which their zeal for the public interest, nod retell-
dence in the liberality of Governineut,
them to. advance with inconvenience to themselves.

surely,. %then they are reduced to such straits, it
mould be unjust to ut•iet on such a moil,• of settk-
ment. It is again submitted, therefore, whether
the whole account should not be throw tr open, in
order to be settled upon a more equitable footing.
To the demands originally contained in this ac-
count must now be added the expeme of maintain-
ing in India the King's troops exceeding the Par-
liainentAry limit, according to the statement or itf
whidi will be formal in the account No. 9._

/Rated, to Likoo,oool. and, as they include the ex.
pense of sending King's mope and military stores
to India. it ',ems the more reasonable that Govern-
ment should relieve the Company, by affording a
liberal accommodation, on the ground of tbn•e ex-

of the Government debt by an advance in the way
just mentioned, or by reducing the Company's ex-
ports, they must of necessity look for from public
aid; and this important concern is the more urgent,
because it will appear front the estimate, No. 3,

that the wants of the Company will become large

demur in their payments, the credit e the Coin.
pany, under the appreliensimis excite.) by rumours
of the French design, against India. will be alfccted,
and demands more pressed upon them.
Before concluding, the Executive Body of the
Company think it may be proper for them to de-
clare, that they are not conscious of having, by inn.
providence or inisinatiegeinent, contributed to bring
the Coniminj's •Hain into the embarrassments in
which they are nriw involved. Tkey may be pieced
in a very material degree to the vast increase of the
Indian debt, the consequence of vari,ius inessur,.
adopted abroad under the adininisti anon of emits ou I
exercis-d Iy His Majesty's-Government si, cc the
year i 744. ' Those embarrassment. procted a'so in
part from causes which it has.4not been in the power
of this country to controul. Au unexampled Elm,.
peso war, which has already continued roll.: ein
years, has in every was aggravated the expei,ses,
and diminished the proiitsiot the Company at home
and abroad. The increased charges of freight and
demurrage alone occasioned by this war, have
amounted, since its commencement, to more than
seven millions sterling. Whenever Great Britain
is involved in European war. the effects are always
felt in India in increased military expenses, even
when no European enemy appears in the field there ;
but that war has been carried into Indio, and, at
the desire of His Majesty's Government, the Com-
pany have had to sustain the expenses of various
foremen expeditious to the French, Dutch, bud
Spanish possessions in India, and to Egypt, all
chiefly ou the national account, in which, as is
well known, the Company expended very large
sums, borrowed at high Indian interest, to the
prejudice of their general credit and affeirs, in
ways which cannot be made matter of account.
The war, moreover, has occasioned s gradual rise
in the cost of home manufactures and metals,
which the Company. consulting the mit;cmal in-
terest, hare continued to export for many years to
the extent of U. 200,0001. annually, notwithstand-
ing the known disadvantage under which they pro.
scented that trade; for the increased most could not
be compensated by • corresponding inerra,e in the
selling prices. abroad, nor by a decrease in the
prices of goods purchased for Euriqw, and has
therefore been attended with iiroitlie sad ionsider.
