proposal was instantly atcepted, and the sum demanded as a corm
pensatioh, six hundred pounds, as instantly paid. Certain documents
~ere then exchanged two of which, drawn up on parchment, were
lived by certain individuals. He afterwards discovered that the
whole was a gross inrposition, the vender of places a cheat, and the
parelmitAtts forgeries. The. Gentleman having immediate resource
to legal advisers, an arrest of the delinquent was determined upon,
hat it was too late. It was then resolved to search his apartments ;
and a warrant being obtained, Harrison and Brown, two offleers,
Isere dispatched. when the chambers were forced and a quantity
or papers seized, whose contents, it is expected,
.will lead to a
d trovery of long pratised fraud. In the mean, time, the most
diligent search is making for the impostor.

BANK RESTRICTION.

Mr. Hoesma said, he was anxious that inch information as the
House was permitted to have on the suhject of the Bank Affairs,
and which he had moved for yesterday, shonld be in possession of the
House, before the discussion. and lie shooltl make a motion on the
subject. It was a very extraordinary circumstance that so important
a measure as to the econtintianee of the Bank Restriction should be
proposed on so short a notice as that whieh had been given. Before
a measure, which was, he thought, most injurious to the hest interests
of the country, was attempted to be earned, the fullest inquiries
should he made into the state of the country, and the ability of the
Bank to pay in cash. But so far as information was open to them,
he should wish it to be laid before the House on Monday next. The
House had no accounts of the state of the Bank issues from March
last, to the present tinae,,exeept of some particular day in Novem-
ber last, and them was an atteonut presented in July for that partk
cular time alone. It was to be remembered, that ever since the
Bank Restriction was wider the consideration of the House there
had been* very strict watch kept over the Bank issues.
Mr. VANSITTART rose to order, on the round that there was Ma
question before the House.

Mr. finnan* 4aitl, that hotbed iotended to costinde with a motiotz

Mr. FRRINIANTLS said that it was Not his intention to trouble the
Mouse with remarks on the Court-martial of Sir John Magray, bnt
he could not help observing with regret the personal enmity and
rancour which had been suffered to manifest itselfon that trial.
Mr. ROSE spoke to Order, and said it was perfectly irregular to
make observations on a subject not at all before the House.
Mr. FIIKEMANTLE raid, that hi 3 only intention was to call the et
trillion of Ministers to the circumstances, winch was the more neees-
miry, as they had seen the alarming eireumstances, which had arisen
from another Court-martial. (Cries of order !)

Mr. VANsITTAItT said,. the Ho►►nnral)le Gentleman (Mr. Frees

pointing said, " I hove stowed him down there." Witness then went
down, and saw the deceased dead, but quite warm. Witness lifted up
the deceased, and on examining the body, saw a large wound on the

'there were several sticks lying near the body besmeared with blood,
and a square piece of wood .had hlood and hair on it. Witness asked
the prisoner hoe lie came to murder the man, and with what he had
committed the act ; to which he replied, "he would not let me go up
the ladder, and I gave him a blow with some pieces of wood." The
prisoner said that he had been writing a letter to hie wife. lie was then
taken to time watch.honse, where the witness saw him the next morning
and he then appeared in a distracted state of mind. On the following
hursday the witness saw him, ar.d on being asked about the circom-

the prisoner's voluntary confession, that he went to the mill on the
night of the 12th of Nay, accompanied by two men of the names ef
Seabrook and Collins, not 'et taken. Seabrook WAS 011 the watch ant•
side, whilst the two others forced a part of the premises, and entered

alarmed by the master of the house, and the prisoner was token. The

Mr. BEN N ETT moved for leave to bring in a bill to limit corpora!

ment at home. The lion. Gentleman prefaced his motion with
%patiating on the cruelty of flogging, and contended that it was
possible to abolish the syste►n, and yet maintain complete discipline
ni the army.

Cc.!noels Palmer, Wood, and Pakcnbart, and Lord Palmerston,
thought it was impossible to do away flogging altogether.—Sir S.
Romilly, Mr. W. Smith, Mr. Forbes, and Sir F. Burdett, strongly
sopported the motion.

Mr. NIA NIN Ens SUTTON said the abolition of corporal pnnish-

scent was silently but gradually going on, and required not the aid
of legislative interference. No cinergenev existed at present for so
radieal an alteration of the law.—The motion was negatived without

EXTRACT or A LETTER FROM A. LADY AT PLYMOUTH TO
HER FRIENDS, DATED AVG. 8.

" You ask me what Buonaparte is like—why, he is like
an Officer and a General--a military air of the best kind.
I was near enough to see not only his person but the co-
lour of his face, which is like the fat prints of him—like
the print that you have, but his air is much better; he
stood bare-headed the whole time, and twice made a bow,
or inclination of the body to the mob below, which he
did just as a General Officer would,do, with a pleasing
dignity. The not wearing his hat, and standing to be
looked at by a mob, who in no way saluted him, gave an
appearance of humility. You cannot think how stranv

ed the captive to a rock. • Nay, the named Peace
been proclaimed, and the re-establishment of all her re-
lations formally announced, yet, is the world at rest ?
Does any nation feel that it can lay down its arms, and
that the days of universal tranquillity are come. The
warlike preparations continued with unremitting activity
be every state, prove that such expectations are not en-
tertained. Instead of disbanding, they increase their
armies, and pour forth fresh thousands upon the territory
which has submitted to their power. What then has been
the result of that grand and wilted effort which was to
banish the spirit of war from the earth, and to effect
which, so much treasure was required and so much blood
spilled ? Its result has been the overthrow of a man, justly
viewed as the enemy of European independeuoe, but who
was only the ostensible head of a nation equally hostile.
If our hopes are disappointed, it is because they were
founded on misrepresentation. It was said that Buona-
parte alone was guilty of all the crimes of France ; that
lifs ambition was their source, and that when the cause
should be removed, the effect would cease. The chief
criminality of the French was made to consist in their obe-
dience : they, forsooth, detested the tyrant «hose

I"1 have to repeat the great uncertainty in which every
thing continups involved here. The. expected order for the
movement of the troops for this day has not been issued, nor
is it expected for eight days, within which time a review, of
.140,000 men will take place, which I suppose is intended

a green border, the colour of his livery. He has been pro-
claimed in the South as Charles X. The 'Government of
Paris has nothing to govern. The Minister at War is with-
out an army. ; the Minister of Finance without money.; the
Minister for Foreign Affairs ssithout Ambassadors; and the
Minister of the Interior without Prefects. The agents of
the allied armies empty all the chests., and give to all the
Mayors the orders for requisitions. They have begun •to
cut down the forests. The inhabitants of 28 towns and vil-
lages in the Loiret have taken refuge in the forest of Orleaps,
abandoning their honSes, devastated by the W urtemburght4s,
and, above all, the Bavarians.. The latter are 'worse than 'be
Prussians, as they commit acts useless even to their avarice.
Tile Emperor of Russia says already that the Allied Armies
are become embarrassing to the Generals who command
them, and they cannot be permitted to continue in the cotin-
try.

" Excel!mans will be condemned to be shot—the King
will pardon him, and older him to be transported to Guiana.
" There are nightly disturbances in theThuilleries under
the King's windows. Lately,. a Royalist run through the
body a man, whom he supposed to have cried " Vive Mut-
peceur;" but he WAS deceived, the man who was wounded
not having' opened his mouth.* The Duchess d'Angouleme
has been insulted.' It is surprising that 'the Allies of the
King of Fratice, who, according to the opinion of the Duke
of Wellington, have 900;000 men in France, do not place
50,000 at the disposal of the king of France to do the duty
of the Police.

' The secret of the whole disorganized state of things le,
i that the King is felt to be totally disqtialified for the exer-
lions which the state of things requires, and the Court itself
is divided into two parties,--the King's Government, and
! the pure royalists. The party for the return to the ancien
regime give themselves this title. Monsieur and the Dncliess
of Angou!eme are at their heaa—and the plot is, that Louis
XVIII. should 'retire on account of his infirmities, Mon=
sieur also, who is become a devotee, desires also to withdraw
into private life—and dins they clear the way for the l)uc
d'Angouletne, who has. been actually followed and termed
Charles X. in the South, where he has exercised royal power
—having displaced -the King's Prefects and appointed other:.
—received the taxes, raised contributionsarmed and or-
ganised bodies of troops—and the consequences have bCen
as I stated—the persecution of the Protestants; and the ruin
of thousands. Ile was recalled by the King 'to the metro-
polis, and has obeyed. But the matter has•come to ihe fast
extremity. If the Ministers do not triumph immediately
over tiffs attempt, they must'go out in a body, and the King
will retire."

On the Intt) instant I dined with Mr. Playfair and an
• Italian named Caraman. We dined at Pagliano's, and as
some circumstances of a very peculiar nature attended that
meeting., I think it necessary to write theta down. earaman
had furni4ed Mr. Playfair with a map and description of the
Island of Elha, which I had copied praparatory to making the
model". Mr. p. and Caraman spoke French, and as I know
try little of that language, I only caught a word sometimes.
Buonaparte was often mentioned The Italian spoke a great
deal. Mr. P. sail little, hut was seemingly vet.% attentive,
rind much struck with what the man told him, and now and
then turning to me, said, "vety important information in,
ritcd !" This he repeated so often, that it naturally ex-
ited my surprise. The Italian also gave Mr. Playfair three
or four papers, one of which appeared to be a list of names;
