termed a Ministerial Member of Parliament !
Mr. MARTIN expressed his regret, " that during
the whole time that the lion. Member for Aber-
deen gave his support to the present Administra-
tion, he should not have perceived that gross,
and unprincipled, and outrageous extravagance
which he had since so miraculously discovered PI
We may be permitted to express our regret also,
that " during the whole time " of such patriotic
support, Ministers should not have perceived and
distinguished the great talents which Mr. ILUME
possessed, and which, no doubt, he assiduously
watched every opportunity of bringing under
their notice. It is said to have been a misfor-
tune for this country and the world, that the
British Government, ignorant of the gigantic
genius of BUONAPARTE, refused to accept his

services, when he was a young adventurer, seek-
ing employment in any quarter where it could be
found. It is perhaps equally unfortunate that
the present Administration did not in good time
discover the vast powers of Mr. IlismE. The first
was great in the field—the second is great in the
Senate,—and would doubtless have been great in
the Cabinet'.—Regret, however, is now unavailing.
Mr. lltimE having found that au undiscerning
Government remained ignorant of his merits,
has successfully appealed to the more just and
accurate discrimination of their opponents ; and
he is too pure and incorruptible a patriot ever to
hold an office in the service of his country, after

having carried on so vigorous a warfare against
all its public functionaries and public establish-
As nothing but the Divine blessing
upon the arms of the nation rescued England
and the world from the fierce and destroying
sword of NAPOLEON,—SO nothing but the Divine
blessing upon the National Councils can now
preserve them from the error and confusion
which the very name of Mr. liumE, by the force
of sympathy alone, is so well calculated to excite

meats.

We congratulate the Commercial Public on

the relief from the vexatious and oppressive pro-
cess of Extents in Aid, which may be expected
to result from the folloWing order of the Court
of Exchequer. Parties making affidavit that

their own debts to the Crown are in danger
of being lost, must of course expect to be sub-
jected to a process of Extent upon their own pro-
perty ; and thus Extents in Aid will probably
never be issued in future, but as' consequences
of the chief process having been previously
resorted to

Order of the Court of Exchequer, respecting the Affidavit
on which the Process of Extents in Aid shall in future be

•
issued..
" Upon the motion of Mr. Attorney-General, it is ordered,
that from henceforth no fiat for an Extent in Aid shall be
granted, unless the party applying for the same, or some per-
son or persons on his behalf, shall make affidavit that, unless
the process of extent for the debt due to him from his debtor
be forthwith issued, the debt due to the Crown from the party
applying will be in danger of being lost to the Crown. •

We have received a file of Savannah Papers to
the 18th June.
TEXAS.—A Gentleman who has lately arrived from that pro-
vince represents the condition of the people as miserable in the
extreme ; industry is scarcely known, and business of every de-
scription at a stand ; agriculture is entirely neglected. At St.
Antonio, a place once flourishing and popular, nothing but
wretchedness was visible ; it is only garrisoned by 75 soldiers.
[From the Montevideo Gazette of the 28th April.]
The Director of Paraguay still continues his old system of
permitting the importation into his province of every thing
which adventurers might see fit to bring, but he will not
suffer either money, produce, or even the persons who had
entered his dominions, to depart. By pursuing this course,
he entirely deprives the other provinces of the two esteemed
luxuries of yerba and tobacco, and of which the Brazils furnish
but an indifferent substitute. General ARTIGAS is still a pri-
soner in Paraguay, and a deserted convent has been granted to
him for a residence. The market of La Plata is glutted with
almost every article of importation, particularly with liquors.

The House of Commons adjourned last night
until Monday next.
On Tuesday Mr. CLOUD left town with dis-
patches for Vienna.
On Tuesday the Duke of YORK held a levee
as Commander-in-Chief, at his office in the Horse
Guards, which was attended by about 30 military
officers.

His MAJESTY'S travelling carriage and four-
teen horses arrived last Saturday evening at Nor-
thallerton, where they remained till Monday
morning.- They were expected to pass through
Newcastle-upon-Tyne on the following day.
THE LATE MR. EMERY.—The remains of this
excellent actor and truly worthy man are to he
this day consigned to their parent earth at St.
Andrew's Church, Holborn. To the honour of
the theatrical fraternity, in order to lessen the
funeral expences, those who are able to attend
the mournful ceremony mean to join the proces-
sion on foot in its course through Holborn. The
zeal of the whole theatrical community of both
sexes on this melancholy occasion, and of THE
COMMITTEE who manage the concerns of the
ensuing BENEFIT, and of the separate SUBSCRIP-
TION, cannot be sufficiently commended. It may
be fairly presumed that the activity of this be-
nevolent Committee will be productive of some
effectual relief for the unhappy family of the
deceased. As to the SUBSCRIPTION for the PER-
MANENT FUND, in support of the numerous and
destitute relatives of a man who so eminently
contributed to increase " the public stock of
harmless pleasures," who ought not to be proud
of having their names enrolled on such a RECORD
OF HUMANITY !!

The preparations for the contraction and
other judicious alterations before the curtain of
Drury-Lane Theatre are commenced ; to com-
plete which the erection of the scaffolding is esti-
mated at an expence of at least five hundred
pounds.
