The WRD ADVOCATE said be was in reality bet imper-
fectly amptainted with some of the particulars of the ease ; he,
however, bad only to require that the House would suspend Its
judgment till enquiry was to take place. He had no objection
to the production of any of the papers.
Mr. BROUGHAM was glad to hear that at last there was to I
be enquiry into the ease. He certainly could not but marvel
much at he change that had takes place in the coarse of about
411 boars; for now those opposite held the very opinions that
were maintained by the supporters of the motion on the former
night. Tim " great wisdom" of the House had then decided
that there should be no enquiry ; the numbers to be sure raa
pretty equal ; but now there was to be an investigation. He
had misunderstood the decision of the Horse, it seemed ; lie was
glad of it ; for be was persuaded that enquiry sooner or later
must take place.
MASSACRE AT Scto.—Mr. W. SMITH adverted to the
dreadful massacre that bad taken place at Scio of the Greek
hostages, and enquired whether any advice* had been received
on the subject. Ile understood that seventy or eighty persons
had fallen victims to the massacre ; and lie wished to know
whether they were in any way protected by the English autho-
rities ?
Lord LONDONDERRY said that intelligence Ind undoubt-
edly been received. It was one of those fatal resulti that
grew out of the calamitous mode of carrying on the warfare on
both sides. lie understood that not more than 12 or II per-
sons only were Greek hostages. They were not under the pro-
tection of the English Authorities in such a way as to warrant
the interference of the government.
IsiTERCLPTEDCORRESPONDENCE—Mr. BROUGHAM called
the attention of the House to a letter that had been published
in some newspaper. It purported to have been found iu the
streets of Dublin ; it was from Mr. Nautili to Lord Norbury,
inclosing extracts from Lord Ross, calling on the learned Lord,
in the course of the circuits, to urge the necessity of resisting
the Catholic Bill • and where interests were concerned, and
some reluctance ;hewn, to use strong and comprehensible ar-
guments. Ile condemned the publication of a letter that must
hate been obtained by improper means ; and lie should like to
know whether soy enquiry would be instituted respecting it ?
Mr. PEEL was sore that the publication must be condemned,
but lie could not pledge himself to the adoption of any course
of proceeding.
The Report of the Salt Tax resolutions having been brought
up,
Mr. CURWHN moved as an amendment, that the tax be
totally repealed.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER and Mr.
LUSHINGTON defended the Resolutions, contending that
further reduction could not take place.
A long debate followed, and ultimately the Ilouse divided—
For the resolution 104—For the amendment 02—Majority In
favour of the resolution 12.
On our re-admission into the gallery we fonnd
Mr. HUTCHINSON urging the injurious effect which retain-
ing the 2s. duty would have on the provision of Ireland. He de-
clared lie would oppose the 'treasure in every stage, and unless
it was given up, he would, night after night make such state-
ments of the misconduct of ministers towards Ireland, as would
make gentlemen's hair stand on end.—{A laugh.)
Lord LONDONDERRY said lie was nut at all intimidated
by the threats of the hon. gentleman, but still, as the question
was only as to the diWerence between English and Irish currency,
we understood him to say he would advise his right hon. friend
to comply with the wish expressed by the hon. gentleman.
Mr. CALCRAFT flattered himself, that notwithstanding the
large majority of twelve to-nOtt, they should. in the progress
of the 8111, succeed in relieving the public front this ohnosioits
tax. The resolutions were then agreed to, and a bill ordered

occordingly.
The Alien Bill was postponed to Monday.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gare notice he
should certainly bring forward hie budget on Monday. The
Hon,e then adjourned.

A MONSTER.—On Wednesday morning last, about
t.vo o'clock, the cry of murder was heard by the watch-
ou•u and passengers on Holborn-bridge, as it proceedimt
iroin the shambles in Fleet-market. Several persons
Hew to ascertain the cause, when near the end towards
Holborn they saw a female, very genteelly dressed, who
was in a state of inteusibility, and streams of blood were
flowing from her. On being questioned, site slated, tit, t
her name was Martha James, that she lived at No. 4,
Peter-street, Cerkenweil. Just before she called our,
she was accosted by a tall man, dressed very genteelly,
apparently in a blue coat and white trowsers, who en-
deavoured to persuade her to have something to drink,
and, upon her refusing, he caught her in his arms, nnd
forcibly carried her to where she then stood, and after
ill-using her in a most shameful manner, he with a sharp
instrument inflicted a wound at the txatim of her sip.
mach, and then ran oil as fist as he was alit,. She was
taken to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and Mr. Curtis,
the hou,e.surgeon, was called up, and on examination,
a stab, about half an Melt in Icilitilt, and of the sonic in
depth, was found on the tiliitt side of the atitlusucti.
