system of the Civil List expenditure to the bottom.
The Minister of 1816, he believed, had held mt
that hope ; Mr. Perceval certainly had ;. and were
it not for that assurance, • much fuller investiga-
riots would at these periods have taken place. He
felt a most entire confidence in his Majesty's own
gracious intentions; but that circumstance did
not relieve the two Houses of Parliament from the
solemn duty incumbent on them in this reaped,
and be DOW wished to impress on the House the
necessity of reprinting the papers and accounts,
which had melted from the inquiry of NO. to-
gether with icy new information that might hive
since transpired. Independently of economy, •
consider•tioa which undoubtedly, at the present
times, carried the utmost possible weight, another
question called for the attention of Parliament—
lie meant the mesas of simplifying the accounts of
the Civil Lis., so as to render its various chsrges
open to the lowest capacity, sod to enable the
poorest subject in the realm to see bow much of the
sums granted ander that head went to the exclusive
maintenance of the Royal dignity, and was actually
consumed in the support of the King. and the
other branches of the Royal Family. At present
this was involved in obscurity, without * vast deal
of examination and computation. It did not seem
to him to be by far the simplest and most eligible
course, to throw on the Consolidated Fund every
charge growing out of the other parts of the Civil
Government, or that could be considered of • pub•

was satisfied that (ruin the way itt which the ac-
counts of the Civil List were now confounded to-

from the arteries to the Judges and the foreign
Ambassadors being mixed up with the grants held
proper for the support of the Crown, in such a man-

perceive what was the cbirge ou the one account

The Petition was brought up. The Sre•yer of it
was for leave to bring i■ a Bill for the enlarg►rnrent
of the power. of • Bill. 51at Geo. ill.. being •n
Act for enlarging and improving the yetlittqw
of the City of London. The Petitioners stated.
that they had expended the •mount limited by
Parliament for rebuilding the Poet.office.
Alderman Wont, mowed, that the Petition
should he referred to a Committees..

Se►jeattt ONSLOW would not let that. or any
other opportunity go by, without enuring his
'attire protest against that, or any other tax on the
people, intended for the benefit of the City. lie
protested against oury general tax for local benefit:
especially on one of the Most necessary articles of
life. such as that of coals.
Mr. CAINErr said he afro felt himself boom! to
oppose the Bill, whenever it sl Id he brought fOr.
ward. The removal of the %Jost-office would be a
great disadvantage to many, himself being amongst
them. The City °illy would be benefited, and
ought to pay the cost.
Mr. R. GORDON said, that 238.0001. had been
spent, and not a brick yet laid. That mock ex-
pense was already in returns before the House ; how
much more had been spent he could not say. The
original estimate given to the House was 209.0001.
He had then protested against the accuracy id that
estimate, and now it was shamefully evident how
inadequate that sum was to defray the expenses of
the undertaking.

Mr. ilO LAE SUMNER was at a IMN to know what
the floosie had to refer to a Committee.

The SPEA/LER said, perlispr it would be comm.-
slient for the [loose to know that the coarse taken
with the Petition was precisely that which was al-
ways *tool in Petitions for Private Bills.
Mr. Alderman WOOD said, that he could have
gone into the subject, but he was cautious of wast-
ing the time of the House until the subject had gone
through the Committee, arid came before the House
by means of their 'Report. The object was one of
general and not local benefit, and us to the tax upon
coals, of the particular tax in question, the City it-
stir paid apart' la of 12,000 i. annually.
The motion was then agreed to, and the Commit-

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12.
The Court sat this morning again in Justice
Hoell, Old Bailey.
George Ferguson, M.D. was opposed on the
ground of undue preference, concealment of pro-
perty, mod a misrepresentation of his fortuity. He
underwent a very long examination by Counsel ou
behalf of the opposing creditor, a Mr. Thompson.
The following is a brief ()whim of the case:—
The Defendant went in reside in Derby, in
1816, where he commenced business as a Doctor of
Physic. Soon alte► this he furni.lied a house, at
the rate of YlO/. which had snore been paid,
but the person who advanced him the money
was not paid. He bought a horse, valued at
seventy pounds, of a Mr. Thompson, and gave a
bill for the same, payable three months after
date. He dewed having ever promised to pay for
the horse on delivery. His father allowed him
about 1501. a year, and his profits from his profes-
sional duties might emotion to 300/. more. In
two months afterwards he disposed of the horse to a
Mr. Glover, as security fur monies advanced by
Glover to him. He had also given Glover a piano-
forte, value 401. a gun 101.. books, card-tables,
disoing-tables. liec. The residue of lois furniture
produced him 401. and his embarrassments were
occasioned by his being plaeerdeol in the streets of
Derby as a swindler. He denied having ever avid
that hie fortune was above five or 600/. a year. The
debts due to him were 87 in number, the only good
one of which was one amounting to half a guinea.
The Insolvent, on his examination, denied having
given any undue preference to Glover; on the coo-
trary, the goods were delivered to Glover time after
time as he advanced the money on them.
The COURT was decidedly of opinion that no
grounds were made out for the charges of conceal-
ment, undue preference, and a false representation
of his property; nor did they think there was any
fraud or ussasecessary expenditure in his purchasing
the horse, such an article being necessary turnable
I• to discharge his professional duties ; they there-
fore ordered Ilion co be discharged. after inserting to
his schedule the in-tides hr had given to Mr. Glover,
and also his binding himself to assign over to Lis
creditors any interest lie might have in three
art cliii.

l'he Court also announced and wished it to be
made public, that by the IleM Act of Parliament
persons living in the country might save the es.
prise of coming to town by sending up their
affidavits.

NEW CHURCH AT CHELSEA.

Yesterday having been appointed for the laying
the first stone of the new church at Chelsea, by the
Duke of IVellingion, preparations were made for
the accommodation of the spectators upon an ex-
tensive scale. A large space was railed in, in the
shape of an amphitheatre, for :he company, and
platform was erected with all the necessary appa-
ratus for the ceremony. So early as twelve o'clock
gentlemen and lashes, elegantly dressed, began to
arrive. and in • short time a tinnirrous comparry
were assembled, expecting with great impatience
the arrival of the illustrious Duke. At half past
four his Grace's brother. the ltev. Gerald Vale-
rion Wellesley. came forward •aisil read • letter
from his Grace, stating. that lie was detained
by his Majesty on business, hut that lie would
attend at hall-past five. Th:s assurance seem-
ed to appease the ' g discontent or the -
pany ; but half-after five Caine, and no Duke
arrived. Some more oirne was spent in idle expec-
tation, and it was finally resolved to proceed in the
ceremony without waiting any longer. The Bimhop
of London and other agents tit the scene then came
forward. and laid the stone with the usual furnish-
ties—being the only instarice of the first stone of a
church being laid after sun-set. The company then
began to disperse, full of disappointment and disa•-
tiafaction. There was much clamour among the
crowd, whose disapprobation was espreesed in loud
hisses and groans by some, while others filled the
air with shoats of " Long lice Me Qaeea .1" 66 Aon

LONDON,

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, iseo.

The House of Lords were occupied during the
whole of yesterday in dismissing certain proposals
subinittecl to theist by Mr. BROUGHAM. respecting
the mode of conducting the QUEEN'S defence. The
first proposition was, that the Counsel for her MA-
JZSTY might be permitted to open their case, reserv-
ing to themselves the option subsequently either of
examining all or any number of their witnesses whom
they might have in readiness, or of postponing the
whole or any part of their testimony until such pe-
riod as to the House, on the suggestion of her MA..
JESTY'S Counsel, might seem.proper. Tins request
was. after a long and animated discussion. refused
by a majority of 105—those who supported it b-ing
6u, while those who opposed it were 165.. The
C set fur the QUEEN were then informed
.that
they might. if they thought proper. enter immedi-
ately upon the defence, but that the hearing of evi-
dence insist immediately succeed the opening state-
ment. Mr. BROUGHAM then requested that, post-
poning his statement for the ilefersce to some future
period, at their Lordships' discretion, lie might now
be permitted, for the purpose of correcting in some
degree the impression which the MSC fur the prose-
cution might be supposed to eteate, to comment
upon the evidence which bad been {widowed ; but
this was refused by. a still greater majority—those
who supported die proposition tieing only 49, while
those who opposed it were 170. 'rime was then
granted to Mt. HaourtuAu until ten o'clock this
morning to snake some third proposition respecting

MR. WES7"S PIC7VRES.

Mr. WEST'S Gallery, in Pall-mall, has been re-
opened since the suspension of the exhibition, oc-
casioned by the sleuth of his late lamented Majesty.
and some alteration his taken place in the general
arrangements of the Gallery. A few new pictures
bast been introduced, and they are now as placed
as to repot-sent, iu chronological order, the most
sublime events which form the basis of Christianity.
Tlw venerable President of the Royal Acodemy,
whose mime this Gallery bears, cannot better have
his fame celebrated than by an orrangemeut of his
works, which is well calculated to ttsvelope she
great moral of his efforts. That ■ picture is a
.peaking poem, wan an old maxim of en ennui-lit
critic. It remained fur Mr. WEST. under circum-
stances from a variety of awes not very favourabie
in this country to the application of the tine eflei t
of the arts to the promotion of that holy feeling
winch a deep sense of the mysteries of religtou
calculated to convey. to persevere in a course of
historical paintisig, which, while it stamped upon
his own fame the high character of ■ great
iiiiiiiter, at the same time coottibured to pro-
mote the great moral purposes of society. Tliir
great leginwate purpose Of art, it is, we hope, the
pride of Mr. Were to have pursued, sod with sin
oidisiary success as a moral topic. Whether the
public have equally appreciated this applicatioo of
the artist', talents. we have no opportunity of know-
ing. Whether they have or not, it ought to be a
consolation to. the declining years of a very ruitueut
and unaffected artist, shot he, at least. has duce his
sluiy to society, and that whets his public career
1.611 have closed. he will have left behind him the
brut memorials of the real use of art that are ex-
tant in modem

In the Exhibitioss of Mr. WIEST'S Picture', ss it
is slow ssrrssigtd, these are twelve works 414711i6m

MR. PHILIPPS'S LECTURES ON MUSIC.
Yesterday Mr. Philipps delivered his first Mu-
sical Lecture, at Morrisson's Great Room, to a
crowded and elegant auditory besides the nobility
and gentry present, we observed an assemblage of
pertains of taste and science in the different
branches of literature. Several distinguished
musical amateurs and professors were also present.
Mr. Philipps entered into a close analysis or the
different styles of singiug. and maintaiued, con-
trary to the prevailing opinion on this subject, that
any person of moderate abilities, with a voice
merely sufficient to turn a tune, and industry to
follow a few plain rules, may soon become au
agreeable, and, !whops, ■tt excellent singer.
In the course of the Lecture. Mr. Philipps gave
a variety of examples, accompanying himself on
the piano-forte, in passages from some of the most
beautiful songs, authors, &c. in the language. It
is almost unnecessary to add, that Mr. Philipps was
greeted throughout with the most enthusiastic ap-
plause.

of such general regret.

CIDENT, OCTOBER 15, Is2o.

WRITTEN BY MR. PUNTIN.

Stranger ! I pray thee listen to the fate
Of this dear Boy, now hid from mortal sight ;
Gild makes at will and slays without debate,
Be lle errs not whose " All that is, is right."

Else had He surely saved this valued
Whets danger triumph'd in that fatal hour;
For, Oh! an infant's loveliness ur'er stunt
More sweetly, bowing to his dreaded power.

Haply a fairer flower iieck'J not earih,
Or shew'd its sweetness to the
Hiply a sweeter infant we're bad birth,
Or revell'd in the joy of parents' eyes.

Ilia little mind far older than hie years,
Gave birth to hopes created but to blight;
Taught to conceive above he placed his fears,
Shedding s lustre like the morning light.

Pined with his parents in a coach secure,
He prattlrd sweetly oil rash scrim that pasitl—
Smil'd on some toys put there for childish lure,
Nur dreamt that pleasant journey was his last.

Eiger to catch some passing sight or sound,
Imps by fate, sgainst the door be rusted ;
The Nick betrays) its victim to the ;round,
And the remouseless whet I his body crusted.

O sight appalling! 0 disastrous sight
‘I hose pen shall paint that scene of matchless horror
Consoled in death he raised himself upright—
Loodled his adieu, and all was frantic sorrow.

" Tell me, 0 tell," the wretched mother said—
" Where is the psin, my ilarlhog boy ?" she cried:
But death ►ad mired upon that little head,
And answer per be ousoc—he look'd, nod died!

Free from all pain his cherub form lies cold,
Removed for ever from this world of pain
Rut grief CIIII never quit big earthly bold
Of the fond parents, till they meet spin.

The author of the present interesting work ap-
preciates truly the value of this principle. Al-
though of small compass, it is illustrated with 33
elegant coloured engravings, portraits of the inha-
bitants of the countries which it describes.. The
recollection of the historical memoir, thus aided
by the more vivid impression of the eye, has
in this little work a. superior recommendation, as
affording increased facilities In youth in the at-
twisiment of useful historical and geographical
knowledge. The valuable information which it
contains,' and the chaste and simple style in which
it is conveyed, would entitle it to public patronage ;
but the taste, truth, and beauty of the portraits con-
stitute a picture sufficient in themselves to render
it attractive to every admirer of arts and science.
