TITF, NATIONAL RVGISTER.

land N et.exr observed, that the object of the bill wa• to
dive ministers a great revernie before they hail given one proof
of their sincerity in their professions of economy. He should
oppose the tax under any modifications, unless lie_ saw some
proof of retrenchment.
Sir C. Bunn au. remar►ed. that in pri% ate life the violation
of a pledge would be esteemed dislwnoin•able. Covet mein,
wt•hen they pledged this as a w:u• tax, should have kc pt their
faith at all events He hoped the tax would be abandoned.
Mr. BMA GUAM observed that att. nipts were made by inte-
resta d persons to cheek the exp.. ...inn of public opinion ri -
speeting the income tux. H. instanced the ease ef a Mayor
of a town, who had set himself against a petition for the non-
renewal of the income tax. This mayor had thm.e sons in the
nary and one in the victualling department, and might have
good reasons for siipportio:2. .fie income tax. This, however,
was only one fact, out of au immei.se number of others, with
Wltirll he should not then trot•ble the House. It was ignite
enough to skew the means wiiich had been taken to stifle the
voice of the country; but if. the people mice made their voices
'card, the Government would be obliged to obey them.
Mr. AiIIiCTIINOT could pledge his honour. that no influence
whatever had been employed by any part of his Majesty's Go-
vernment for the purposes to which the honourable and learned
gmitlernan ha.. alluded.
Mr. Bit.itintsm had only said, that the influence was local,
and not that it had been produced by the Treasury The
Right Hon. Gentle•nat., however, would find, that as scion as
any objections were made locally, intimations •wintlil be given
that such a one was a very good friend to his Majesty's Govern-
ment.

ARPITHNOT did not confine himself to the Treasury,
bet Lod posit. ely stale-I that no part of the government nhat-
ever had intertered on tie-i, occasions.

Mr. PoNson BY was sure the Right Hon. Gentleman was in-
capa.de of ,sating any thing that was not the fact, as far as his
own knowledge went; mit there might be an opinion in persons
holehug situations in his Majesty's Government, that their in-
fluence should be exerted to prevent these Meetings from going
forward. The conduct of Miuisters had not been such as to
induce certain persons to suppose, that their zeal in precluding
the people from presenting petitions to that house would be
very disagreeable to them.
L.,rd Mu. Tux Myst rved, that persons who were looking to
the goo trmment for patronage understood these matters very
well, without having received any special intimation. Indivi-
duals had stated, when applications were made to theta for
sup' tort at elections, " I have such and such sons in the army,
and therefore I cannot support such a candidate."
Mr. Altili:THXoT begged to slate most positively, that in no
way whatever had Kos enoneot authorized any persons to pre-
veld petitions from being sent to that home.
stir GEORGe WARRENnaa knew that a great difference of
opinion existed in many parts of the coontry respecting this
measure ; but he could confidently state, that in his neighbour-
hood the plan of finance of his Right Hon. Friend was parti-
cularly approved, beemise the agricultural distress would he
relieved by upholding the public credit of the country by
meatus of this tax. From all he heard, he could not tbrbear to
observe, that it' charges of this nature were to be repeated
it would be a very pretty sort of war. The grossest misrepre
gentutions had been circulated in the country respecting this
tsx. Ile had himself read handbills, that it was intended to lay
the tax on servants, and to deduct it from the wages ofattisans.
These statements could he made for no other purpose than to
excite public clamours from the lower classes of the people.
It' ministers chose to recriminate, and say that gentlemen on
the other side had made representations which the-lower orders
did not understand, there would be tio end to this kind of
war.
Gen. FERGIASOW said, it might be very possible that many
friend. of the Right Hon. Gentleman approved of this tax ; but
with respect to the particular part of the cosentry from which
be came, it had been always distingnislicel by a most tenacious
adherence to every measure of every administration. ( 4 laugh.)
Mr. 'Nosiest.", hoped, that whatever might have been the
understanding between gosermnent and certain individuals,
the people would continue to meet and express their opinions
without the control of any mayor or constable whatever.
Mr. Laninton's motion was then agreed to.
Mill LANDLORD AN D TEN %yr BILL.

Sir JOHN NRWPORT rose. ist pursuance of his limier, to move
for leave to bring in a Bill to obviate eel taiu difficulties to
which landlords and tenants in Ireland were liable. 'nee ob-
ject he had in view was to assir,ilate the law of Ireland to that
of England, in so fu as, wholes er a tenantshould abscond, and
not leave sufficient property on the preniises,the landlord might
not be obliged to have recourse to the circuitous mode of eject.
mein, but avail himself of that process which is used
in Englaud. Having stated these objects, he should reserve
himself for a more particular detail of the provisions of his
Bill, if the HOUN.: should permit him to bring it in.
Lease was gisen.—Adjourned.
FIIIOA%, MARCH 1.
Mr.GoocH presented Petitions from different parts of Suffolk,
praying a repeal of the Property Tax.
Mr.:4erjeant Osstow brought in a Rill for more effectually
securing the Liberty of the Subject. To be read abscond time
on the eth of April.
Several Petitions were presented from Innkeepers, pray Mg a
Repeal 01 tin additional Ditties on Licences.
Petitions were plecelill el from Cordwainers Ward, from Dart-
mil, Acton, Norton Falgate, Bethnal Green, and other places,
against the Income Tax.
Mr. Coat; gave mike, that he would on Thursday week
bring forward u Motion thr the repeal of the War Malt Tax.
Mr. VASSIITART Said, hesishltl to take tke earliest oppor-
tunity of statiug, that his Noble Friend (Lord Castlereagh) was
as yet too marls indisposed to attend in his place. He trusted,
hones er, he would be ,ufficieatly recovered on Monday rest.
Ou this account he would itsw propose to postpone the consi-
deration of the Army Estimates till that day. This was ac-
cordingly ordered.
Mr. ATKIN% WRIGHT presented a Petition from the inhabi-
tants of lee county of Oxford; and, iu doing so, drew a picture
of the distressed state of the agricultural part of the country,
which. be said, was m gteat au,l su sect re, that no persons who
bad uut personally witnessed it, would credit.
Mr. G m gar s it. strongly recommended .reonoissy to Adua-
nistratiou, and earnestly urged 'actin to abandon the idea of
continuing the locowe Tax; a tax, Le sisid,oo oppressive, that
the country which submitted to it, without the greats-t and
irdst 11. Oa U. cessity, diet not deserve the name of a free
cotritry.
Mr. 'Posisotinv did not rise to suggest any other mode of
raising :lie money necessary to meet-tilw(unposed expenees ;
bur. to state that ahaost every Gentleman vs ho had risen in the
Howe ion wlottever side t had sated his objection to the In-
come Tax; and the voice of the country was responsive to the
voice of those Gentlemen. tie licip,od OA the se tuns ersal re_
•ent pre s .
• ens would have :heir effect; and it the Right Hon,
lieutlema should still feel the iteiinatLon to press this fa.

%mirth. tax of his, that the House would force him to abitudon
it. To talk of sithstitotes for this tax was quackery; it was
mere deception practised on the public ; there WiLi no remedy
for the present existing distresses of the country but retrench-
ment and economy ; and that measure he trusted they would
he fiwced to adopt.
Sir J. ()wets hoped the general expression of objection from
es cry part of the country would induce Ministers :.• abandon
the tax. He feared, that persevering in this tax would change
the nature and character of the country people ; who, instead
of a race of hardy independent peasantry, would become a de-
graded race, obliged to depend on their parishes and charity
for support; as SOCA was the distress of the farmers, that they
could tit, longer find them employ. • He was no financier,-but
he must cool, S',l he could see no objection to having recourse
to the Sinking Fund, did he think the. Stock-holder could have
any right to complain of a measiire so loudh called for by every
part of the kingdom, at all events he hoped the call woublprove
successful; and that the voice of the people. thus generally
expressed, would ultimately oblige Ministers to give up this
odious and tinconstit utiona I impost.
Mr. Coke (of N ortblk ) Also opposed flue tax. He believed
that if the voice of the whole population of Vet country could
be collected, it would he fonnd in opposition to this tax.
The Petitioe was then brought tip and read, and ordered
to lie on the I al,le.
Mr. Biro: i; A)1 wished to know it' any :teetotal were to be
laid before the House on the subject of the Expenditure of the
sum grant. tl last ses ion for paving off the debts of the Civil
List. A Noble 'opposite had said, that gentlemen out his.
(Mr. Brougham's) side of the House had taken up too strict a
line of economy. He aud those who acted with hint thought
differently ; and therefore he should now move an Address to
the Prince Regent, for an account of the way iii which the
sum granted by Parliament for paying off the debts of the Civil.
List last session, had been applied.
Mu. TIEII NEli said, unless the Account+ were laid before the
House on Monday, he should snore for them then, aud for the
examivation of evidence at the Bar.
The Address was the', agreed to.
Mr H. Sumnen presented a Petition from upwards of 50111
of the Inhabitants of Bermondsey, praying a Repeal ut the
property tax. 'lle Hon. Member ut the same time felt it Lis
duty, as a Member of Parliament, to state his opinion of the
tax ; which was, that no tax could be proposed that would raise
such a sum of motley, and bear so equals, so lightly, or so
fairly, on every class of persons, as this would do, or which was
collected i„t so little expellee, or with so little vexation and
trouble to the public.
Sir J. NI AC KI NTO6H would have felt considerable diffidet.ce.
in differing from the Hon. and respectable Membt r fur the
county of Surrey, delivered too in so Mtn and manly a tone, had
he not had the support of other Hon. Members al st as
respectable as the Hon. Mernber for Surrey, by the opinion of
many of the Hon. Gentleman's own Constituents, and by' Pe-
tition, front almost every commercial town in the kingdom.
The lion. Member had said it was a fair tax, a tax nut op-
pressis e. and one that bore us light as any tax could bear on
the people and also that it was collected at less expence to
the public than any other tax. He must dissent front the Hon.
MI inher in all these opinions, except the last. It certainly was
a tax collected at little expenee. But one niece oppressive,.
tutors unequal, more inquisitorial, or more odious and uncoil-
stittitioital, could not he conceivi d.
Sir W ELIA 31 CI.KTIS presented a Petition front the Ward .of
Tower, praying a repeal of the property tax ; as did also Sir
JAMEY ciao, from Bridge and Vintry Wards, which were or-
dered to lie on the Table.
Mr. CALCIt AFT presented a Petition from the City of Ro-
chester on the sante subject. The lion. Gent. regretted that
the battle of Waterloo should have lot to the establishment of
an army three times the amount of fol'llWf Peace Establish-
ments And that the conquest of Paris had produced the l'ro-
perty-tax. lie hoped the people would not slacken in their
exertions to obtain a repeal of the 'fax, but second the opposi-
tion of this House ; so that by their 'united efforts their object
might be attained. The Petition was laid on the table.
' Mr. CALV EIIT presented a Petition from the parish of' St..
°lave, Southwark, against the Property -ta x. The flout. Gent.
wished to know from his lion. ( Mr. Lushington t whe-
ther it was the intention of Dlinisters to bring (lie Tax forward
on Wednesday 'text, because his lion. Frigid had said, that it
Ottill lint be *brought forward before that day. lie also wished
to know whether they intended to abandon that •• wise and just
measure," as his Hun. Friend Itadtermed it.
Mr. la sntricros bad no difficulty iu giving an answer tio
Iris I [on. Friend. He had informed the Mouse, that it was ha-
possible, from the state of other business (namely, the Army
Estimates), that it could come on before Wednesday; the
Report ut those Estimates, supposing they were voted on,
Monday, would be fixed tbr Tuesday, consequeidly Wednesday
would be the earliest day iu which his Right Hon. Friend coul7l
imbutit his Proposition to the House. Perhaps, therefore, it
might not come ou so soon. ti its respect to the utlter question.
lie must state distiuctls, mat (lucre was no intention to anandua
flu! tax ; because utisti he woad repeat the words).Govertintent.
thought the measure a just and wise one.
sir T. Ati.AND presented several Petitions from various
Pariohts in Devonshire on the saute subject.—.ldjuitriird till
Monday. .

MONDA f, MARCH 4.

THE Paris papers of Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and
Wednesday last, arrived last night. The following are
extracts: PARIS, FEB. 27.
" Yesterday, at eleven o'clock, the Ambassador of his
Britannic Majesty delivered a letter to the King from the
Prince Regent.
" From Perigueux they wFite, that a regicide, well
known in that country, had received orders to set ofiforth-
with. Instead of obeying that order, he endeavoured to
mislead some men, and excite them against the authorities;
'but his manoeuvres having been discovered, he was taken
up and delivered over to the tribunals with II of his ac-
complices.
" The too famous 11416. he has been killed at Morbrison
by the gens d'armes ordered to arrest him ; against whom
he had discharged several pistols, and threatened to dis-
charge others.
" A letter from the keeper of the Seals to the Attorney-
' General, &c. of the Ruyal CoUrts and Tribunals of the
Eastern Departments, dated the 25th, referring to the
occupation of military positions on the eastern frontier by
an allied army, directs a good understanding to be main-
tained with the officers of that army. Directions are
then given as to the conduct to be observed in disputes
between the military and. civil authorities ; the Litter
being desired to grant whatever is comparable with the
dignity of the Crown, but to maintain its rights with
courage and firmness.
" A copy of the letter containing these instructions has
been communicated to the Duke of Wellington, who has
recognis.:d the regulation to be applicable to enisting cir-
cumstances. _ .

" The -following explanation has been given relative
to the preservation of the Testament of the unfortunate
Queen Marie Antoinette.
" At a period when it was impossible for ordinary pri-
soners to communicate with any person out of their dun-
geons, it was little to be expected that a letter from the
Queen of France would be respected by the agents of
the government committees. Robespierre was at that
time the man to whom were ultimately referred all!reports
and all the measures of vigilance. The letter of the
august victim was accordingly sent to him.
" It is known that he lodged with Dupleix, a carpen-
ter ; and it was reported at the time that Dupleix's
daughter was much in his confidence. Towards the end
of his career, he consigned to her care the papers, to
which he attached the greatest importance. When he
was overthrown by the catastrophe of the 9th Therinidor,
the young woman, Dupleix, in her alarm, disclosed the
deposit which he had given to her.
" The Conventional Courtois was directed to examine
the papers of Robespierre. He found there the Qneen's
letter, and kept it, without mentioning it in the inventory.
He since preserved it as a relic, of which he, doubtless,
was not worthy of appreciating the value; but in favour
of which the instinct of admiration which is attached to
great misfortunes, itiliptte of himself, prevailed.
" It was evidently the same influence which induced

Robespierre not to' comprehend, in his contempt tin.
grandeur, a letter which, in the natural order of his ideas,
should have appeared to him as indifferent as that of a
victim Of the lower class.
Amiens, Beauvais, and all the other places on this

Bide of the Somme, in which English troops were enn-
tonel, nre now evacuated. All the troops that form no

part of the army of occupation, are marching on Calais to
.t.anbark. All the territory beyond the line traced by the
