PASSPOKTS.

We lately noticed the extraordinary charge made
at 1, rd Castlerengles Office fur passports. Tne
subject is revived in The Morning Chronicle of yes-
terday, from which we extract the following ar-
ticle. addressed to the Editor of that Paper :
Silt —Annexed I give a precise Copy of ear of Lord Cas-
tlereagh's Passports, the orgival of shich I exhibited at
your Oflice. The cost of this document is 21 7s. 6d. of
which only Ss. is fir the stamp, leaving V. 2s. 6.1. for fen
and fur Lord Castlereagli's arms; 'ilium& of 4,000 of these
Passports hive been issued, tbrrefore more then 8,000 gui-
was have been thus obtained. According to the present sys-
tem of intertwine no British subject can enter the Nether-
lauds without one of these Pnoports, the Ambassador of that
country not granting permission without Lord Castlereagh's
Passport being exhibited. This is probably is return f...r
the obdruction given to Seth. rhoid subjects entering this
kingdom in consequence of the Alien Bill. The same ob-
structions exist is the Inieirourse of British subjects wills
saber countries of the Continent, except France, the Am-
bassador of whieh gives Pnaports gratis, without any docu-
ment fr Used Castlereagh's Office. This heavy charge of
V. 7s. 6.1 on asking any permissioa of Lord Castlereagh to
go to Holland or elsewhere, is novel sad unjust, and must
injure the commerce of this reentry.
The style, We, Lord Castlereagh, &e. thus affecting that of
Royalty will oat escape notice. How important it would
sound in she (louse were Lord Castlereagh to address she
Speaker—We move, Sir, or We second our Right Honoura-

Mr. RuNT.—Yesterday evening, about sic
o'clock, Mr. HUNT, of Manchester notoriety, ass
recognised in • gig in Drury-lane by a number of
persona, who immediately begun cheering the Ora-

derers !" &c. &c. When he approached St. Giles's,
the Radicals of that neighbourhood gave him three
hearty cheers, which the Champion of Reform re-
turned by as many bows, and then drove off so fast
that he soon got rid of his retinue.
