RUSSIAN TARIFF.

Mr. BERNAL inquired whether the account published this
day in the different papers, respecting the r_ussian Tariff, was
correct ?

Lord LONDONDERRY replied, that he would make inqui-
ry if the Tariff had officially transpired.
The other Orders were then read, and the House.adjourn-
ed at a quarter before One o'Clock.

PIDDING and Co., No. 1, Cornhill, remind

the Public, that THURSDAY, the 14th of March,
will be the Second Day of Drawing ; although
5,000 Tickets were drawn the First Day, there
are still 56 Capital Prizes in the Wheel, all
Sterling, including FOUR of TWENTY
TIIOUSAND POUNDS, One of which is to
be attached to the First-drawn Prize, on the
14th instant, and very probably this may now be
on sale at. PIDDING'S Office, No. 1, Cornhill.

The 77th regiment perhaps is more widely dis-
tributed than any regiment in his MAJESTY'S ser-
vice. It occupies three castles, viz. Edinburgh,
Stirling, and Dumbarton ; three forts, viz. Forts
George, William, and Augustus ; two islands,
viz. Arran and Islay; besides which, a company
is stationed at Glasgow, and one at Paisley, and
is the only infantry regiment in Scotland,

The principal topic introduced last night in
the House of Commons arose from the Army Es-
timates. Colonel DAVIES moved for a reduction
of the Military Force of the Kingdom to the
amount of 5000 men ; but that furious Financier,
Mr. HumE, proposed that it should be to the
amount of 10,000. We may venture to hope,
that. Colonel DAVIES, as a Military character,
must be better qualified to point out the extent
of any proposed reduction than Mr. TiumE ; but
the latter Gentleman, who seems to aspire at a
reputation for universal knowledge, in order to
justify the title of the Parliamentary Encyclo-
pcedia, which has been applied to him, no doubt
considers himself as much more competent to
judge upon the question, and to decide upon it,
than the gallant Colonel, who has only the gro-
velling advantage of practice, white the Northern
Seer has all the lights of theoretical perfection.
However that may be, the good sense of the

houseo spropositions; and, indeed,
nde rreijgea theed b oti t
disturbed state of Ireland, the
considering
critical condition of Europe, and the menacing
occurrence of a war between Russia and the
Porte, the proposed reduction of our military
force, at such a moment, by no means shews much
political sagacity in either party, though the
