LONDON,
'"SDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 29, 1831.

The LORD CHANCELLOR again introduced
'lllllB Court of Chancery Reform Bill last night in
e House of Lords. In so doing his Lordship
°llserved that the leading objects of the
measure were, first, to accelerate the pro-
gress of the suits ; secondly, to curtail the
rPreseut preposterous expenses ; thirdly, to
"der the attainment of justice more speedy
and certain. -is Lordship added that
he had consulted the most eminent
altogether
on the subject of his scheme, who
'ulogether highly approved of it. It might
certainlytl have been carried further : bit he
int)ught it would be :trove successful and work
°etter, in proportion to its moderate character.
.j
,he
11;11 was ordered to be printed. In the
I°l-Ise of Commons, Sir C. WETHERELL, on
the proposition being made by the ATTORNEY-
. GENERAL, for the appointment of a day for the
second reading of the Bankruptcy Courts Bill,
tuoved as an amendment, that it be read a second
time on Tuesday, which was lost by a majority of
thirty-six. The Pill was then ordered to be read
a second time on Friday. Mr. WILKS pre-
sented a petition against the appointment of so
many Clergymen to the Commission of the
Peace, and moved for a return of all persons in
thel Commission of the Peace in England and
`Valr3, distinguishing those who were Clergy-
me". We are glad that the lion. Member has
turned his attention to this subject. It is one of
great importance to the well-being of the
ewnmunity, for it is notorious that Parsons
haver
with but few exceptions, always
made the worst Magistrates, and incurred much
"Popularity in their several districts in conse-
Tleuce• In the course of the evening, in the
Committee of Supply, a grant of 163,0001. was
Proposed on account of Windsor Castle and
Buckingham Palace, and after some little dis-
etission acceded to. The House did not adjourn
till a late hour, half-past two o'clock.

There are not a few ugly rumours abroad re- I
IsPLeeting the decision to which the Lords are
111"ly to come on the subject of the Reform
in. Apprehensions seem to be entertained
ah'°"g those who profess to be " learned" in
Stich matters, that the nil %%ill not even be
41,1 Owed to pass into Committee, but be rejected
°ll the second reading by no inconsiderable—at
least in point of numbers—majority. Little
fear, we suspect, need be entertained of
such a calamity. Their Lordships know the
feelings of the people too well, they appre-
4te their own legitimate privileges too
11
ughlYs to venture upon rashly checking the re-
belated enthusiasm of the country. They know
beides—and this valuable knowledge alone will
tend materially to help them to a right decision
..-that the Bill must pass ; that no human power
h" now arrest its progress. so completely national
a% it become, so mixed up, so closely identified
with, the wants—wishes—feelings, and interests
all classes, all professions, all trades, all ages.
:4nreover their Lordships know that should
hey even succeed in throwing out the Bill this
Session, it will come before them with tenfold
energy the next, secured as its triumph will be
hYincreased additions to the Peerage. Knowing
these things, their Lordships, we repeat, will
swallow the dose prepared for them however
nauseous, and digest it however tough. The
iseopal Bench, too, will doubtless lend
their
q aid tr; the gre scheme of national
regeneration,d on the principle that by so
ti°ing they will h 2, consolidating the founda-

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O' CL 0 CK.
We have the following account from Vienna in regard to
the situation of the Polish army, from the frontiers of
Poland :
" The plan of the Poles was to weaken the Russian
army by surrendering Warsaw, knowing the Russians
would be obliged to leave a large force there to garrison
the town. General Szyembeck is in their rear with
20,000 men, in the Palatinate of Sandomir, and by the
destruction of the bridges on the Vistula, near Gera and
Ossieu, all the communications will be cut off with Russia.
Plock is free, and General Romarino, who has gained a
complete victory over General Golowin, and has taken
possession of Lublin, is in the environs of Cracow. There
is also a numerous militia, supported by 10,000 regular
troops. Owing to the Polish army still holding out, the
Russians at Warsaw are taking every precaution to pre-
vent a surprise from the Polish army."
Extract from a private letter from Schilno, near Thorn'
dated September 12 ;
" Having decided to leave Warsaw on the 6th in the
morning, I was roused by the thunder of the cannon. A
very formidable attack was made by the Russians on the
whole of the line of the Polish batteries which defended
the town. The carnage was terrible. The Russians lost
from 16 to 17,000 men, and 26,000 b ills and Congreve
rockets. A great quantity of grenades and bombs were
thrown by the Poles in the Russian camp. The Polish
army is in the best state, and full of animation."
Morocco, SEPT. 1.-The Emperor has been obliged
to retire to Meguinez, and his power does not extend be-
yond the walls of that place, where he is shut up with his
troops. This is owing to his having favoured the French.
The Emperor is greatly alarmed, and has done every thing
in his power to negotiate with the revolters, but they re-
fuse to listen to him, although he has dismissed his Minis-
ter from his service.
Accounts from Tangiers of the 22d September state
that the Dutch have made a reconnoisance to the gates of
that town, and a squadron of cuirassiers had come to the
village of Berg, with several engineers to take plans for an
encampment round the town ; this has caused great
alarm to the inhabitants.
They write from Valenciennes that M. Delmotte, a su-
perior officer attached to the army of the north, has pro-
ceeded to the heights of Bruille and the surrounding vil-
lages, it having been decided by the French to establish a
camp there. Marshal Gerard, with General Saint Croix,
also proceeded to the same place to examine the situation,
and returned on the following day to his head-quarters.
THE FUNDS.
The express from Paris this morning is of some import-
ance, in regard to the local affairs of France. The Minister
of Finance has obtained a vote of eighteen millions of
francs, for the relief of the manufacturers and people out
of employ; we could wish that our Government would fol-
low the example, by opening a discount bank for the fair
tradesman and manufacturers who can prove themselves
solvent, as it would be a great relief for the middling classes
of society, who are the greatest sufferers at present, for
want of getting their bills cashed. Consols, although the
French Funds come higher, are heavy ; they left off yester-
day at 82i to-'f, opened at 824, and went down to 82, at
which price they are at present.
In the Foreign Market little doing as yet.

lIALF-PAST ONE.
We stated in our city article two days since, that we
were in expectation of receiving important news from
Holland. We now can state that the armistice between
the Dutch and Belgians has been renewed for two months.
The fear entertained of hostilities on the part of the King
of Holland must now cease, and no doubt before the ex•
piration of the two months, the negotiation will be brought
to a happy result.
The private letters received from the island of Madeira,
to the 29th of August, represent that island to be in a
state of great alarm, owing to the Governor having threa-
tened the inhabitants that in case any hostile squa-
dron should make its appearance, and attack the
island, he was determined to destroy the town, which
he could easily accomplish ; as the castle commands it,
and has provisions for six months ; he has also caused all
the money lie could accumulate to be deposited there.
The British residents, from the language held forth by
the Governor, are in the greatest alarm for their property
and personal safety in case of an attack, and we undo'-
stand have represented their danger to the British Govern-
ment. One English merchant who resided in the country
has la en insulted by the people, and has been obliged to
take shelter in the town for safety. In all the parish
churches the Priests are preaching sermons to irritate the
people against all persons who are not in favour of Don
Miguel.
Consols continue heavy : the Reform and nothing
but the Bill, is working on the minas of the public.
The grand din of warfare is now approaching, and all
parties are eager for the event. Various are the reports,
but nothing positive is known as to its result. In the
mean time the Funds wiii continue agitated, and stock-
Jobbing reports will he in plentiful circulation, according
to the various interests of the sp.Tulstors, Consols have
been fluctuating during the mornimr, from 82 clown to
Sli; at present they are Sli to 82, with an indifferent
market.
• In the Foreign Market nothing doing.
• A report prevailed that the French Ministers were in
the minority, by a private letter, which is not ca edited at
present.

Despatches were sent off, this morning, from

RYDE, ISLE OF WIGHT.—At half-past ten
on Fi Way the news was known here that the Reform Bill
had passed the Cornmons by a nnjority of 109. T6e flags
were immediately hoisted on the tower, the ringers were
summoned by a d6uble call, they rang three times in the
c,urse of the day, and in each peal rang three courses of
grandsire trebles, .firing a royal salute with the bells be-
twee'n each cour'e, and at the doe 2 of each peal fired them
down.—Briylaton Guardian.
A private letter from Madrid, of the sth inv.,
stater that the Princess (le BEIRA is dangerously ill, and
that her illness is attributed to the approaching marriage
of her son. The immense fortune of this young Prince,
Who is in possessiori of numerous commanderies, admitted
of hiti mother's keeping up great state, whereas she is now
reduced to her pension as an Infanta, which does nut
ceml 140,000 trance per annum. Her inordinate pride
renders this reduction insupportable,, and it is said to be
her intention to retire into a convent.--French Paper.
