WEDNESDAY, JVNE 14.

LORD. ROSE) EDRY'S DIVORCE.
The House having resolved itself into a Committee on the Earl of
osberry's Divorce Bill, the facts of Sir H. Mildrnay's Crim Con
with Lady Roseberry, and the damages of 15,0031. awarded by the
Jury, were proved at the Bar ; Mr. Topping and Ur. Joi.es acting as
Counsel.
On the Clauses of the Bill being read.
Mr. M. A. TAYLOR objected to that which granted an annual al-
lowance of 3001. to Lady ltoseberry, he not being of opinion, with
the late Lord Thurlow, that every adultress ought to be turned naked
into the streets. Such a sum was not sufficient. He wished her to
be so circumstanced, that she might have the means of repenting, if
so inclined, instead of exposing her, from want, to a continuation of
. a degrading connection. With this feeling, he should propose that
the sum besool. (Hear') As to the elatise interdicting the parties,
Sir H. Mildmay and Lady Roseberry, from intermarrying, he trusted
that it would be negatived. Such a proceeding was contrary to wise
legislation. It was not a worse case than many of those which unfor-
tunately had come before Parliament, where no such had been intro.
duceci. But is was said to be against the Canon Law to marry " rue
Wirt or A SISTER (a laugh), or rather to marry the sister of a former
wife; he, however, could not see the wisdom of that law, any
more than the justice of those Canons which were every day violated
on the subject of marriages.
Sir W. (;ARROW trusted that the first proposition to increase Lady
Roseberry's means of subsistence from S to 5001. would he ac-
quiesced in ; but he was decidedly in favour of the clause to interdict
the parties from hereaftcr intermarrying— (Hear ) Without such
interdiction not only friendship, but evert affinity, would not be any
protection against the inroads of such men as Sir H. Mildmay. He
'bad not the least hesitation in pronouncing this to be the most atro-
cious case that had ever come before Parliament, (hear hear) and that
the character of the House was involved in the question agitated by
the Hon. Member not to interdict the parties from marrying—(hear).
Without such a clause they would do what would most lamentably
loosen the bands of moral feeling, domestic comfort, and domestic
seem ity in this country.
Mr. Locectiaar and Mr. WYNNt supported the clause; the latter
wished the intercourse which had taken place to be pronounced " in-
eestuous," as wl3 done in Campbell's Divorce Bill.

TUESDAY, JUDIR 13.

The Pauper's Removal Bill was opposed by Sir M. W. Ridley anti
others, and rejected.
Mr. GRENFELL, after repeating the statements he had advanced on
'a
previous evening, to shew that the Batik at present derived very ex-
orbitant profits from its various transactions with Government, and
•that therefore some new arrarg ment ought to he entered to do the•
public justice, moved a string of resolutions pledging the House to
take the subj.ct into early consideration.
The CHANCELLOR of the Excurouxa, on account of the import.
• ance of the que• tion, moved the debate be adjourned till this day sett-
night, ‘, hien was carried.
Mr. WrisaaPOß es brought forward a motion respecting. the s,tave
Trade.—The Hon. Gentleman said the Acts for its abolitioo were
evaded in various ways, and contended, that Slaves were still imported
Into the British Colonies ; that it was so. he was very strongly con-
firmed, b) the well-known fact. that Slaves had not been increased in
value since the Abolition Act was passed. 114 moved for leave to
bring in a Bill, by which eveoy slave in the British Colonies should
be registered, the ref/liter sent to this country, and any fraud commit-
led on this regulation be subjetted to severe punialudeut.--Leave
given.—Adjourned.

STATE OF CONTINENTAL AFFAIRS.

The opinion which we expressed last week rearecting
the probable course of hostilities has been adopted or com-
bated by most of the dally prints. Its correctness still re»
mains undecided, for no intelligence has yet arrived to
confirm or overthrow onr arguments. As onr supporters
have not advanced any thing ne*, and our opponents no»
thing stronglwe shall leave our justification to the progress
of events, and collect the few scattered rays of information
which this week has produced. According to every ac.
count, an embargo has been laid on all the French ports
in the channel. This is corroborated by the non-arrival of
French papers, which, anteriorly to Monday last, took
place with uncommon rapidity. The Moniteur of the 10th
brought by a private hand affords us the latest authentic
news, and only shews, that up to that period nothing of
importance had occurred. We have heard of letters of the
12th, which stated that Bonaparte had repaired to his head
quarters on the gth, and that he was expected to take the
offensive immediately. Other accounts state, that a gen-
tleman who left Paris on the llth, understoood that Na.
poleon had not yet quitted the capital. In fact, his de-
parture may have been kept secret for a few days, for the
same motives that led to the embargo, in order that his
destination Should not be known until he had reached it,
and struck the blow which he meditated. The general
opinion seems to be that he passed through Valenciennes
on the 11th snd was at Manbeuge on the 12th ; although
letters of the 13th, from our head-quarters, make no men.
tion of the fact, which, if correct, mast have been known
in our Mini. They assert, that instead of expecting an at.
tack, the Duke of Wellington was preparing to advance,
and that between the 13th and the 20th, a-forward move-
ment would s;maltaneously be made by the British rin 1
Prussian armies. 'We still preserve our conviction, how-
ever, that they will be anticipated by the enemy, Who
having once lost all hopes of eluding by peace the dangers
which threaten him, has no resource left but to endeavour'
to repel them by the suddenness and rapidity of his attack.
The reported affair of out posts near Mons, circulated on
the authority of a letter from Brussels, of the 13th, does not
appear to have taken place. It was stated that we had
made 000 prisoners, and that many waggons of English
and Hanoverian wounded had entered Brussels outhe 13th,
yet the papers of that city to the 15th hate been received,

THE BIJDGET.

The Order of the Day being read in the usual form, the CHNN•
CPL Loa of the Eke titou ER said, in proposing to the House the means
of supply I r carrying on the war iu which we had embaiked, on the
most extensive scale, no one could be more deeply impressed with a
cons deration of the fatal necessity of calling upon the count ry to sup.
;lon so large an expenditure. A /rely short period had elapsed since
'.he House was engaged in reducing our expenses to a peace esta.
bishment ; but, unfortunately for the repose and happiness of Europe,
which had suffered so much from the mination ot 'Fran, e, the wax
had scarcely become cold on the treaty of Pada, when the renewal or
the war was considered ind.spensably hei.e.sary by all the confederated
powers. In the short interval of peace, ths country, had bees enabled
to make some r.duction in her expences, hot consi.lerable arm's of
the toriner war remained undischarged. The expenses of the last
campaign had not then been wholly defrayed, and the war with Ame-
rica had scarcely closed, when this new situation of ;off. irs arose. tin.
der these CircuMstances, with a large arrear of former expenditure,
and having also to provide for the means t carrying on a new war, ji
was not to be wonderer! at, that tne sum winch the exigencies of
the state required for the present year greatly exceeded all formet
periods. He could not, however, but congratulate the Hcnise on thi
extent of the resources, and the fortitude of the public spirit of the
country ; for, large as our expcnces would unavoidably be, he tilt eon:
vinced that our means were able to meet them, and that the people
would cheerfully submit to much larger burthens, in order to secure
the repose of the world. Confiding .inth se sentiments, he should
proceed to give such explanations to the House as would enable
theta to judge of the real situation of our filances. The Right Hon.
Gentleman then made the following statement of the

RtYlkiOt/RED RATTLES AND PROPOSALS OF THE
FRENCH HOUSES TO THE ALLIES.

A variety of unfounded rumours prevailed yesterday
In the City, in consequence of the absence of authentic in-
formation. The Most prominent was that Bounaparte
having reached his head-quarteys, had immediately in-
vaded Belgium at the head of an over-powering force, and
not only defeated our gallant and experienced comm an-.
der, but totally dispersed his -army. This is too bare_
faced a fa.br:cation to deserve refutation, and yet it pro-
duced a Considerable and tv most singular effect on the
Funds. They aetnally rose ! On no other ground we
can conceive but this, that any defeat experienced by ei-
ther party must tend to the more speedy restoration of
peace. Such is Stock-Exchange patriotism ! The Courier
however in a Second Edition, endeavoured to explain it
in the following manner :—" The Funds have risen on a
report that the Senate tuts left Paris on its Why to Stmt..
burgh, there to make propositions to the Allied Sovereigns
nt Manheim, for averting hostilities. It is supposed 'they
intend offering the Crown of France to the King of Mole,
and to appoint a Itegency ; and that Bounaparte shall have
a considerable dominion in Italy, with the title of King."
On this we have only to remark, that the Courier has
forgotten there was no Senate in Prance, and that even
supposing the Chambers of Peers and Representatives bad
gone to make the proposals mentioned to the Allied So-
vereigns, they would not be more admissible than his own,
as their object would in fact, be to increase instead of di-
sniaishing the power of Buonaparte. France, .under the

tnuch in hit hands Its eter ; and he would hate regained
his dominion over Italy, once more formed into a king.

SPANISH PATRIOTS.
Mr. WHITBREAD, adverting to the correspondence which had
been laid before the Home, between Lord Bathurst and Sir J. Duff,
comp'ained that Sir J. Duo's answers were most unsatisfactory, and
sail that every effort might to he made to prevent 0(.11(141 Smith,
Sir J. Duff, or any other persons, party to the horrible combina-
tion, to deliver up those Spaniards who were endeavouring to
escape from the vengeance ot. their own Goveitiment. One of those
given up, Cores, had been condemned to the galleys for ten years,
and was now at Ceuta, for writing to Ferdinand, praying him to
support the Cartes, and that Corea had fought against the despotic
efforts of France.
The CH A NCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER thought it would be-nincla
,better to submit some motion on the subject than to indulge in gene-
ral declamationeand invective unsupported by any malignity.
Mr. WHITBREAD denied that he had spoken Nithout authority,
al he had timmled his remarks on the correspondence, and on the
uncontradictail representations of Poiblaireli. the Spanish Patriot,
who had escaped to this country, falsifying Gem. Smith's statements.
Unless further and more satisfactory information were given to the
House he should submit some motion on the subject at no distant
period.
