THE NATIONAL REGISTER.

Mr. C. Sevtt and Mr. G. E. Dinsdale, two of the
gentlemen whose names arc subscribed to the York-
shire Counter Declaration, have, in a letter to the
Editor of" the York Herald', declared their entire
ignorance even of the existence of that document
until made known to them through the medium of
that paper, and desire that their names be omitted
in future. This circumstance may prove the extra-
ordinary zeal, but not the candour of those furiously
loyal Gentlemen, who seek to recommend them-
selves by misrepresenting the state of the public
mind in Yorkshire

A curious discovery was made a few days ago in the
neighbourhood of Whitby. As sonic mei. %sere passiot
along the rocks on the sea coast, they discovered, abou
two miles south of the town, a man in a easily of the
rock, aboae them, apparently at weak. It struck his
observers that he was about no good, and that be must
either be erfftaged iu smuggling, or in the fabrication of
base coin. Under these impressions they deemed it
proper to give information to the excise, and no time
was lust in making the necessary search. A neat little
room was soma Mtind cut in the rock ; it contained a
fire-Mace and suet metal stove, with the apparatus used
in distilling spirit", but no liquor was found. The
whole of the utensils sVere seised, and lodged in the
Excise-office; but the men who had been engaged in
the illicit work, effected their escape.

HUDORRSFIELD PUBLIC MEETING.

MONDAY. Asa Y, 1819.—This day, pursuant so a previous
public notice, a meeting of the inhabitants of the Town and
neighbourhood bf Huddersfield took place in a large field un
Almondbury Bank, near the town. The Chair was taken soon
after one o clock, and the requisition being read, stated the
'fleeting to be convened for the purpose of taking into their most
serious and calm consideration, the best means of obtaining telief
from the pressing burdens under which they now labour, and
the most effectual means of securing their Constitutional Rights
in the Commons !louse of Parliament. With the exceptiop of
Wi:lan, the printer, of Dewsitury, none of the heads of the
Reform party were present; and the various harangues and
speeches th;t were delivered were much below mediocrity ; they
were, however, of a more peaceable cast titan those of the other
meetings in this district.
The Declaration and Resolutions were so similar to then of
the last Hunslet Moor meeting, that it would be a waste of room
to detail them. The speakers exhorted their ouuntrymen to
conic boldly forward ; yet to conduct themselves with firmness
and moderation, and to form a National Union, on Constitu-
tional grounds, to supptot the pillars or the Constitution of Eng-
land. It being a SAW', Day among the lower orders.
the weather being uncommonly finc, and the unfortunate
circumstance of so many thousands being out of employ,
in the immediute vicinity of the place of the meeting.
caused a considerable cseaehlege on the pound, though not so
great as might have been expected. from the causes above
enumeteted,—The meeting broke tip about six o'clock, ar.d
the persons assembled dispersed quietly to their respective homes.
BURY (LANCASHIRE).
A public meting of the inhabitants of Bury was held on
Friday last, to take into oonsideation the state of the Parish, as
connected with the general aspect of affairs at the present criiis.
A number of Resolutions, suitable for the occasion, were pa,sed.
which, we understand, express commisseration for the distresses
and sufferings of the labouring classes, indignation at the prac-
tices of the Radical Reformers, and a determination to swear in
special constables, and take other accessary measures for pre-
serving the peace and good order of the place.

COVENT GARDEN THEATRE.

Mass SomaaviLrFridnay night made the long-expected
and mach-talled of attempt, ny appearing in the charac-
ter of 21f.::g Merriles. We are sorry to record it as a coin
pleat failure and disappointwent. A sacrifice has been
made of theatrical dignity, without advantage either to
the pet-final= or the public. The Scotch dialect, it was
imagined, would he assumed throughout; but not more
than one word in ten was altered, and those chiefly in
the pr unciation; our former idea of the character
thercl.ro was destroyed, without giving it a new one.
We can only hope that the mistake will not be repeat-
ed, that Miss Sootervile will feel the loss u tlnity she
as sustained, and nut suffer it to be compromised past
recovery.
We are hlppy to finti, from the publication of two
letters in the Tinter, that M:3S O'Neil was incapable of
the mean ft cling imputed to her of refloiii:?: to appear
in the aline play with Miss Somerville. It seems that
her objection of the part of iiartj S!uarl was a scy-
conccioiesisess, that it was out. of her power to inaki. a
sinec flea in it, or to discharge what she though. her
duty to the put lic.
However praiseworthy this may be on one view of
the subject, we cannot approve of it in another. lu the
best ages of our Drama, actors and actresses wore inade
for plays, and not plays for actors and actresses. Thus
in the present instanco a good tragedy of Sehil:ers may
be lost to the public, because the principal part does
net exactly suit the task of a popular pertinaner. This
system is certainly one of the prevailing causes of the
present degraded state of the Drama, and. needs a
speedy, as well as a radical reform.

EXCHEQUER RILLS.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHFQUER moved that there be
laid before the House, a list of the Exchequer bills issued

the amount antherised by each act; but it was impossible to
hear him in the gallery.
Mr. Gitgargt.t. asked the Right Hon. Gentleman if the
8,000,0001. due to the Bank last year, had been paid out of
the supplies far the year, as the Rigbt Hon. Gentlemen had
promised should be done.
The CH ANCILLOR of the EXCHEOUP.R said, that 5,000,0401.
had been paid tint of the impplies of last year, and that the
remaining 9,000,0001. would be paid out of the neat sap.
plies. Motion agreed to.—Adjourned.

OFFICIAL ARTICLE.

MADRID, AUG. 12.—The King has addressed to
the different Councils, through. the Ministry of
Grace and Justice. the following Decree
" The supreme Tribunals of the capital, the De-
puties of my kingdom, the different municipalities ,
several religious communities, and many other cur -
porate bodies, have represented to me bow advan-
tageous and necessary it would be to the well-being
of the nation in gLacral, and to all Christendom, to
preserve by means of a new nuptial union the legi-
timate succession of the throne upon which Divine
Providence. has placed me. I have listened with fa
your to the just desires with which all these bodies
areanimated, and have yielded to their arde.it wish-
es ; and considering the high nobility of tho Saxon
blood, and of the most Serene Princes who compose
that august family, the alliances, ancient as well as
recent, that adorn it, the particular attachment that
his Majesty King Frederick Augustus has always
entertained for the Crown of Spain, and above all
the rare and sublime qualities which Heaven has
granted to the most Serene Princess Maria Josephine
Amelia, his niece, (laughter of the most high and
most puissant Prince Maximilian. and of the most
Serene Princess Caroline Maria Theresa, of glorious
memory ; I have chosen Don Ferdinand de Aguilar
y Contents, Marquis of Cerralho, that he should go
and propose to that Monarch my hand and my
throne fur the said l'rincess. Having then imparted
to his Majesty and her Highness my sovereign in.
tentions. they have testified with profound venera-
tion how agreeable such an union would be to them,
as also to all ,Saxony. I now inform the Council
thereof, that it may be apprised of it, and share the
satisfaction which this new union creates in me,
from which I trust will ensue consequences the most
favourable to the Catholic religion and my subjects."
DRESDEN, A vo. 15.—1 t appears, that the com-
mission appointed at Berlin by order of the Prince
de Hardenberg, to examine with the greatest care
all the papers seized, and other written documents
obtained by the Ministry, have made a detailed re-
port to the Prince, and that this examination has
produced the most consoling results, there being uo

WE DVESDAY.

Mr. Mannotxs brought in a Bill for the better preservation of
'Game in erred:. parts of Wales. On the question for the Bill being
read a tirst time,
Mr. ohservecl; the scvciity of the Ga:r•.e laws. as they
at present Espial, was most excessive, and the coavietions under th.
numerous. Ile uncletituoil there was at present an instance of an
individual hating bean conticted in penal:les air.ounting to 10001.;
which !amities, as the law now maid, the Crown had not the
power of remitting. Ile trusted when the Penal Code came under
the consideration of the house. one of the first objects to which
the attention of Parliament would lie turned would be the Game
Laws.

Alter w few wards from Mr. Msmsocxs, the Bill was read a
first time.

subject.
MT. CALCRATT did DOI augur much good from the labours of
the proposed Committee. A great deal had been said of the fairness
with which this Committee was to b. elected. Now he had seen a
Bst of the proposed tiatnes, and found that it was by tio means so
candid a selection as had been boasted numbers as to party
were seven to tuurtcen ; and lie was astocislied to tintl the mime

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

MONDAY, FEB. 8.

Mr. CaLcitarr rose to move the addition of Mr. Brougham
to the hank Committee. The fitness of Mr. B. would not be
d.sputed. He had been asked if he had any pr,:cedent fur
ouch a motion ; in answer to that he could say he had ; fur, in
L7Bl, the Marquis of Graham was appointed to a Committee,
after it had been filled op with 21 Members.
Lord CASTLEALAGII did not at all Mall to dissent from
the competence of the individual; but it was destructive of
the principle on which the Committee was chosen, which was
by ballot. The Hon. Gentleman had not informed the Hoase
whether the Committee be bad quoted was a secret ono or
mot. He thought the best way was, to adhere to the original
mode of election—by ballot ; and not to add inure to the
.sober of the Committee.

Mr. TIERNAV said, there was sot a single man in the king-
dom, who, in matters of politieal economy, could throw so
mach light, and was so likely to lead the Committee to prac-
tical results. This amounted to a determination that Mr.
Brougham should not be of the Coow.ii!.tee, because lie sat on
the seine side of the House with hm.
Alderman WA1T11,14.• said, that when a Coin:lli:tee was
elected by ballot, and a Gentleman was propoi.ed
-whose would be of essenti4l service to the IL ..trit:iltee,
the l'ul.he would not bel:eve that this Cumulate.: was !i,i.
spiry, but one to repress all enquiry. He thought the I louse
would have done better even if intro, had been in. precedent
for electing another t, aleusar of talents, to have broken
throu:4:l the punctilio. Hr hall no expection that the pub-
lic be satisfied r. itu thus Committee, since they knew
what set t of Conuniaces those elected by ballot were.
11.tnnA s. Vti.l, these Committees were elected from
u given by Miniviees, and servilely followed by Members.
It was inown to the ecunr:.l to be a juggle ; and in all his
experieuz.r, he never kue.e the Opposition lists of any use.
Mr. MARTIN email conceive a Lawyer learned and mmte,
yet still not tomb as to be appointed to a judicial situation.
lic could conceive 411 eminent Divine, yet not such a man As
the CIOAII would be advised to make a Bishop; Government
would not be dole to induce him to vote fur the appointment
of Mr. Brougham. . .

Mr. MastastaTt• agreed that the praises bestowed oe Mr.
Brougliani C just; hot this was a waiter as mash of a
practical as of a theoretical nature; and as Ito thought there
wcre too many theorists uo the Committee airtady, he Should

The lioute was summoned to the Rouse of P,iers, to hear the
Royal Assent riven to the Westminster Hustings Bill, and the Bill
fin the future Care of his Majesty's Person.
Mr. MaNsetnt.l3 pre.ented a Petition from certs'n Menufaetu-
errs of Leiennershire, complaining of the hardships ebey at present
labour under, en account of the want of employment in the woolen-
manufactories; and also from the Vrame-work-knitters. The Pi Ls-
tioaers also complained of the inttoductim of a spurious article, ti
certain person., into the manufa.-tune of the articles in question; by
which the value of their commodity generally was very much dete-
riorated. The Hon. Gentleman stated, that the patience with which
the persons employed in the manufactories at Leicmer had borne
the hardships to which they ha I been subjected, was deserving of the
most serious consideration of the 'louse t and he now wished to state,
that, should this Petition now be allowed to lie on the table, he
should. on an early day, move, that ii be relkrred to the consideration
of a Committee.

Mr. FAME seconded the motion for the Petition being received;
and observed, when the motion for referring the Petition to a Corn.

stating his opinion more at large. The Petition was then todered to

NEGOCIATIONS AT AIX-L I-CH tPT:LLE.

The Earl of Livt_AVOW. laid on the table various Deco.
stems relative to the Negociat ions at Ai ala-Chapelle.
Lord HOLLAND asked, if, among the Papers laid on the
table, there was a copy of treaty of Holy Alliance among the
live Great Powers, Great Britain, Austria, France, Movie,
and Russia. The five Great Powels declared, on that Treaty,
that they wont., never depart from the principles of intimate
union, rendered still stro.i.....er by the of Christian
fraternity. He wished to know distinctly if Great Britain
was a party to that Holy Alliance.
The Earl of Liveitoci rL stated, that in a few days the whole
•f the Papers would be laid on the table of the House.
Great Britain was no direct party to the Holy Alliance,
though the British Goveriinii nt approved of the principles of
it. That Alliance hail brim signed at Paris by the four So_
♦ereiens them-elves, without the intervention of any suitor.
dingle avid ; and, by the principles of the British Constitu—
tion, which required the intervention of responsible agents,
the Prince Regent cold not be a party in the same manner
with the other Sovereigns.
Lord HOLLAND enquired if the Noble Lord intended to
lay a copy of the Holy Alliance before the House.
Lord LIVERPOOL answered in the negative.
Lord HOLLAND only wished to 'sooty what were the bonds
of Christian fraternity among the allied Powers.

PLACES IN REVERSIIN.

rid Guosves in said, that he did not intend to propose any
I. gislative enactment on the subject of places held in
on ; nor even as he hail done on a former occasion, to
s !spend that newea fir a limited time. Ilis sole object was,
to obtain a return of such places as hail been granted in lever.
.`an since the Ist of January, 1818. Ho !sniped and trusted
l'iat a blank return would be made, atter what had already
piaee in that House, and elseware, on the subject of
i.; lees in reversion. Publicity was his object ; as nothing
ten.leil so much to slimness abuses, as the publicity arising
from the ilisciissions in two branches of the Legislature. From
a regard to public opinion, no place had been granted in re-
version for some years back, with only a single exception
a:alluding to the Ditches, of Glatice,ter); and that grant
could only he ohjectcd to, on the ground of the principal.
No doubt could exist but that many Offices would have been
abolished, had it not been for grants of them in reversion ;
and these Offices, of inconsiderable emolument, 111.1, ii/ con..
sequence of a state of war, and other casualties, risen to au
*mount that could not have been conte.nplated at the time of
the grant. The Noble Earl opposite (Liverpool) had in same
measure given a pledge to the House,as to the abolition or the
office of Lord Justice General in Scotland, Clerk of the Pleas
in Ireland, and some others, the ditties of which were ills.
e!..argeil by Deputy; and he trusted that pledge would be re-
deemed. The Noble Lord conelnded by moving an humble
Address to the Prince Regent, for a return of all the Offiees
