TILE MAR.RIAGE LA W.

On the further consideration of the Report on the Marriage
Law Amendment Bill,
The LORD CHANCELLOR, with reference to the for.
feiture clause, said, that he had given the subject every =Hi.
deration, during the time that he had been able to spare from
his other avocations, but he could not say at present that he
could clearly see his way : he therefore proposed that for the
present the clause should stand as it was till the third reading,
which would give time for the full consideration of it.
After some conversation, in which the Earl of LIVERPOOL,
the Earl of LA UIAnDALE, and the Earl of WESTMORLAND
took part, the farther consideration of the Report was adjourned
till Thursday next.—. Adjourned.

BAYONNE PAPERS.

BAYONNE, MAY 31.—The day before yester-
day some pieces of light artillery fit for service among the
mountains arrived here, but the mules that draw and c3rry
them are in such bad condition, and the gunners so little ac-
quainted with this species of service, that it has been deter-
mined to let them exercise for a fortnight, during which time
the mules will become better 4t for service.
Letters from Madrid and Logrono do not give us any satis-
factory information respecting the effects of the occupation by
the French ; assassination and pillage took place the very day
the Prince entered Madrid, and continued the following days
'as it were, under his eyes. At Logrono the Trappist has be-
gan, and inflicts the bastinado on the Constitutionalists, who
are robbed with impunity ; 36 of them havl left the town, be.
in g in fear of their lives."
The Universal contains some interesting articles; we quote
the following:— _ _

" The Political Chief of Orihuella (Veericia) has caused the
Convent of the Dominicans in that town to be shut up. The
monks, to the number of 52, have been sent to Carthagens, to
be embarked. What is still wanting is, that their property be
sold with more expedition than that of the monks of Murcia,
which is still untouched. One of the greatest iniquities that
has been committed, to hinder the consolidation of the Omsk.
tutional system, has been the scandalous delay which ha-s taken
place in the sale of the national Koperty, for what is that
which has been sold „in comparison with what remains to
be sold ? How touch more numerous would the persons im-
plicated be ?"
Another article says that the Political Chief of Malaga has
left that city with a strong column for Ronde, where the ill.
disposed, as it appears, attempt to excite disorders.
Accounts from Toledoaay that Locho, the Chief of a band,
entered that place on the 20th, end committed all kinds of ex-
cusses. A thing which appearsincredible, but which is affirmed
by persons who declare themselves to have been witnesses,, is
that on the day of the Prince's entrance into ;limit-id, the fol.
lowing. strange

—Religion for ever—Death to the NtltiOrt !" it is reported
here that a sum of 100,000 francs, sent from lililbao, fell into
the hands of the Constitutionalists not fax from that city, and
they have also taken 12,000 reale of the Royal receipt for salt;
near Salinas.

TO THE EDITO.II OF THE TIMES.

Sru,—l am no enemy to fair criticism, even though the
'judgment pronounced should differ from my own but mere
malignity. I detest, especially when directed against the me,
mory of the departed.
Looking into your Paper of this day, I was astonished to
find a most inveterate attack on the memory of Hayley, fraught
with a virulence which appears to Rip to be utterly unaccount,
able. 'With what appearance of truth, sir, can it be asserted
that the literary reputation of Hayley has been long since dead,
whilst his Lift of Curcper and his Trirtniplis of Temper are to
be found in every library, and have been eulogised by every
critic ?—not to tuenticxn his' Epistles on Epic Poetry, the ad-
nitration of his elegan't friend Gibbon, and which would alone
be sufficient to prove that Hayley possessed quite enough of
genius and learning to place him far above the scale in history
which the article in, your Paper has assigned to him.
But suppose it were granted that Hayley had lived and died
a blockhead; is the writer of this article (for I cannot believe It
to bp your own) would have us think, still lie was a man placed
by birth and fortune in a superior Station in Society, and was
upon terms of the closest intimacy with many of the most emi-
nent men of his time; and therefore, though it were, as I have
Said, granted that his writingswere not worth a rush, the his-
tory of his life and of his connections might nevertheless prove
Moly interesting. But this the writer in your Paper takes
no pains whatever to, ascertain"; it is enottzli for him that lie
dislikes IlaYley ; for what cause, of course, I cannot know ;
and therefore, without examining one page of his hook, or
saying one word of its 'contents, he tells the public it is
worthless.
Now, Sir, i4s all injurious assertions should be allowed a re-
ply, and asl do not think you are in the habit of fearing the
rejoinder, I expect it from your candour and justice that you
will Insert this letter in your Paper of Alanday, in order that
it may atleast be shewh that a different opinion from that
which the writer in your Paper maintains, does exist ; that
the reputation of Bayley is not dead ; and thatl until these lifer
moirs shall have been examined:, it will be asking no more
than what is right to expect that judgment on them should be
suspended.
A FRIEND TQ Tuts 111BMOItir or HAYLEY.

* What will the public think of this malicious slanderer, who,
with a stroke of his pen, wishes to annihilate the fame, past and
future, of the estimable Bayley, when they are told iwhich I
am enabled to state from the best authority, having ascertained
the fact) that the Memoirs were not sent to The Times Office
until late on Friday evening, and that consequently his preme-
ditated attack on them (for so it appears it must have been) was
written on the instant of their arrival ; as the paper in which It
was inserted was then printing, and published at six o'clock on
the following morning ! ! I

publicit,y to a most disgraceful attack on the me.
mory of the late Mr. HAY LEY, as a friend of
that distinguished man, I thought it right that
some notice should be taken of it, and accord-
ingly addressed the following letter to the Edi-
tor, which I requested hint to insert in his Paper
of Monday,, As, howexer, he has not thought
proper to do this, anti I do not intend that his
shutting his columns against a true representa,
tion of this matter should prevent the exposure
of so unprincipled an aggression, I request you
will do me the favour to insert the following

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT—(Tilts DAY.)

E ATTORNEY-GENERAL v. THE CORPORATION OF

BRISTOL.

wereln itileieartaibionvaergcuasmeeanr.demurrer had bc.en filed, and Counsel
The VicE-Citarici,r,on said this was an information
against the Corporation of Bristol, respecting the payment of
the jailor's fees. Those feel. had for some time been deducted
out of the
left upon trust for particular purposes—to this
a demurrer is filed by the Corporation, saying, " of whatever
Lands, we hold upon trust, we are not to give any account."
rr tie VicE-CliAwcELLon. said, if they even repair bridges
out of- the proceeds of the landia„ they are bpuntl to wate the
purposes for which they were left;. Ins opinion was, that such
a discovery should be made, and that it would be essential to.
the public.

In the Couns.r of Kr)ln's BENCH, this day, the SoLiCs-
ron-GEfirnat. obtained a rule for a criminal information
against a person named Colley, residing in the town of
Deptford, for circulating i# libellous hand-bill against Lord
George Seymour, a Commissioner of the Board. of Excise,
stating that he was in the habit of associating with an inferior
officer, And borrowing money of him.
Mr. C. Prru.r.u.s. also applied to the Court on the bch4f
of Mr. O'Meara, to spew cause why the rule obtained by sir
Hudson Lowe, last !Mary Term, should not be set aside tvith
costs, on the ground that due notice had not been given by
which his client was put to considerable expence. The cmurt
granted tbe rule without costs.—Mr. C. rAtirtiars sni,%l he
would mention the case again to-morrow.

NEW BEER BILL.

IMMIOUSE presented a petition from a brewer min-,
ed Chapman, against the new beer-bill introduced by the Chin-
cetlor of the Exchequer. The petition complained; that• ae.
cording to the regulations of the Bill, no person now carrying
on the trade of a brewer could brew the new beer without tak-
ing fresh premises for the purpose. This arrangement, - the'
paitioner thought, amounted to a hardship ; and he suggest-.
ed that a brewer might be allowed to use a certain number
of detached rooms on his own premises, for the production of,
the new beer; those rooms being so kept under lock and key ;,
and so exposed to 'the visits of the Excise, as to prevent the'
possibility of fraudupon the revenue.

THE THEATRES.

kmo's THEATIIE.—Tite new opera of Eliza
e Claudio was substituted last ►►ight for La DOMUI
del Lago, in consequence, as stated, of the
ness of Signor REINA, and Madame RoNzA
BEGNIs. A Morning Paper, however, intimates
that the real cause was the elopement of Madame
VEsTats to Paris. We can hardly suppose that
she would fail so much in duty and virtue. The
house was well attended.

DRURY-LANE.—The Castle of Andalusia wasp
again represented last night. It was powerfully
supported in the musical part by BRAHAM,
HORN, SMITH, Miss POVEY, and Miss STE:I'M:NS,
and BARLEY and KNIGHT were not less effective
in the comic characters.

ROYAL Conuno THEATRE.--The represen-
lation of The Siege of Sarragossa at this Theatre
test night was productive of an interesting effect.
The Duke of SAN LORENZO was present, and on
his entrance was greeted with an enthusiasm of
applause, which, we rejoice to say, exiiiessed the
feelings of our countrymen, and of all friends to
national independence in every country. "Oh
France, France, thou shalt shed tears of blood"
as spoken by Mr. H. KEMBLE, excited a strong
emotion, and so did every passage which testified
respect for the Spanish cause. The Duke was
again greeted with the warmest applause on his
departure.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS.

Mr. CANNING moved an address to the Crown, praying:
that the additional papers relative to the late negodation n►tght
be laid upon the table of the House. •
Mr. WARRA• after soma preliminary observations, which
from the low tone of voice in which the lion. Member uttered
them we could not catch, • begged to ask the Right lion.
eretary for Foreign Aff.Ors whether any treaty had been entered
into by the Allied Powers at Venom, to support. the French,
(govt rnment in its attack upon Spain ; and whether, if such.
a treaty had been made, the mating of it would not amount ticv
a violation of the solemn engagement at Aix-la-Chapelle
lie understood it to have been argued, that inasntucl► as no:'
direct hostility had been agreed to, no infraction of the treaty
of Aix.la.Chapelle had been committed; but if the Allied
Powers of Russia, Austria, and Prussia had bound theteseves.
to lend France all assistance in her measures against Spain, he -
(Mr. NlTarre) could not but view that course as a virtual viola..
tion of their engagement. , The Honourable Member sat down.
after putting a second question as to the cams jirdeth, -the
effect of which we found it impossible to collect.
Mr. CA.NNING said, that be would confine his answer
strictly to the points upon which .the questions of the lion.
Member had arisen. To his knowledge, and to the best of his
belief, no such treaty as that spoken of by the lion. Gentle.L:
man had been signed at Verona. Whether any obligation had
been contracted which might be urged us aquiValent to a
treaty, was another question ; but no such treaty, to his (Mr.,
Canning's) belief, had been signed. The cases firderis con,
teinplated at Verona had never occurred ; because the contim,
gency with respect to which countenance and aid had been prO.;
mired by three continental Powers of France, that had been. ;,►
'case of eypothesis and contingency, neither of which had
taken.place.

THE NAVY.

The Earl of DARNLEY, pursuant to notice, made a few
observations on the state of the navy. The result of the nego-
ciations at Verona had led to a general belief that the etr.n-
try would be involved in a war. He had from time to time
urged the necessity of keeping the navy in an efficient state
to meet the contingency, and he was sorry to find that the
guard-ships had not more than half their usual complement of
hands. Ships were also fitted out for foreign service with less
men than they ought to carry. It was the duty of Government
to keep ships fit for duty. The Noble Earl concluded by mov-
ing, that there be laid before the House an account of ithe men
on board guard-ships and men-of-war in commission in Great
Britain.

Lord Viscount MELVILLE opposed the motion, on the
ground that It would not procure the Noble Earl the informa-
tion he wanted. The return moved for, could only 'relate to
vessels in the ports of this country, which formed but s portion
of the preparations made by-the Admiralty. It was at the
same time unusual to make a return of the whole maritime
force of the country, and the House would doubtless not allow
it. It had.heen the policy of the country in time of peace to
preserve a sufficient number of guard-ships with the proper
complement of hands. The Noble Earl had passed over the
men employed on the -preventive service, which was always an
available force. The Admiralty did not make war by extraor-
dinary preparation, but he admitted that in all times of peace
the navy ought to he in a proper state of preparation.
The Earl of DARNLEY did not wish to prolong the dis-
cussion, and therefore did not press his motion.
The question was negatived without a division.
The Marquis of LANSDOWN presented a Petition from
Mr. Burley, Clerk of the Crown in the County of Derry, on
the subject of fees and the want of compensation in the dis-
charge of the duties of his office.--The Petition was laid on the
table.—The House adjourned to Thursday.

HOUSE OF COMMONS,

Mr. DENISON presented a Petition from the Inhabitants
of Farnham, in surrey, praying the repeal of the Tax on Coals.

CITY, Twelve o'Clock.—This is a close holiday
both at the Bank anti Stock Exchance ; but the
Foreigh Market is open, and Spanish Bonds were
done at 3211. On the Royal Exchange some
few bargains were done in Consols at 764 i-. I
do not hear of any Express from Paris but one,
which I understand is for you.--A report is in
circulation that Letters of Marque are expected
to be granted by the Spanish Ambassador ; but
I cannot trace it to any authentic source.
FOREIGN MARKET.—Spanish Bonds opened at
32-14, but little is doing ; as the failures have
caused a great sensation in the above Market.—
Columbia Bonds are on the decline owing to the
information from Bogota.

ADDITIONAL. NOTICE.

Mi. ** aa * * is encouraged by the great patronage helas al-
ready met with from Gentlemen residing in the Country, to add
to his Catalogue 6 Young Ladies, who play on the piano-fbrte
and harp, and can sing Italian and English songs, 4 Dancing
Beaux, who will dance on a carpet if positively required, 2
Elderly Ladies, who read aloud plays or novels, and do not ob-
ject to play quadrilles or waltzes on the piano, 8 Young Ladies,
always agreeable .to join any riding or walking excursion, 2
middle-aged Gentlemen who will,undertake to talkduring the
whole of a fozmal dinner party, and can tell anecdotes from
Dean Swift down to Joe Miller ; and one accomplished listener,
who will pay undivided attention to arguments on the necessity
of turnpike road bills, and on the cultivation of the Swedish
turnip, or to any of the other usual topics of country conver-
sation. The public are respectfully informed, that the three
last-named guests are charged a guinea a week extra, which it
is hoped will not be thought unreasonable, as the difficulty of
procuring them is very great.

*** We lately inserted .an article similar to the above, which
excited much notice in the fashionable circles, and which is un-
derstood to be the production of a Gentleman whose recent re-
tirement from a laborious profession affords him leisure for the
indulgence of that wit and humour for which he has long been
distinguished. The second part is attributed to two sprightly
Young Ladies, who are evidently possessed of a similar turn for
humorous invention.

On Thursday evening, a numerous anti fashionable party
were present at the first assembly fur the season, in the George
Street Rooms, to commemorate hit MAJESTY'S visit to Scot-,
land. Upwards of 600 personages of the first rank and dis-
tinction in the city attended. The meeting was under the di-
rections and patronage of five Lady Patronmes, who superin-
tended the ceremonies with their usual grace and affability.
Besides Gow's excellent band, that of the Scotch Greys also
attended in a separated appartment, and entertained the com-
pany with some beautiful ,airs during the intervals in danc-
ing.—Quadrills are still the favourite, hut a few sprinklings of
the country dance were occasionally introduced.-4 Edinburgh

THE THEATRES.

!)Ituay• LANt.—The removal of Miss STteurss
from the rival Theatre, instead of lessening her
attraction, seems to have increased it. Guy
Atunnering was the performance of last night, and
by the aid of her vocal powers, and those -of
BRAHAM, the Theatre had a very numerous
audience.

COVENT•GARDEN.—The Opera of Maid Marian
keeps its hold, as well' it may, considering the
talents that are employed in supporting it. Miss
TREE was able to resume her station last night.
The new Farce of The Duel is so whimsical and
humourous that it has fully established its success.

EXETER THEITRE.—If report speaks truth,
our Theatre, which last week so suddenly gave up the 'host,
will, Phcenix-like, blaze forth again, and re-open with re.
doubled strength and attraction. NVo perceive, by Mr.
BENNETT'S Address to the Public, that he retires frcim
theatrical pursuits altogether. In justice to this Gentle-
man, we cannot but remark, that, as an actor, he haS al.
ways been esteemed as one of sterling merit, and maintained
the highest reputation for a series of many years.—We under-
stand that 3lr. BRUNTox, from one of the London Theatres,
takes the future management, who has made such acquisitions
to the late corps dromatique, as to render its strength complete;
which it is hoped, will give general satisfactitin, and secure the
patronage of tbe.public.—( Exeter Plying Post, Feb.

INTERESTING TO COUNTRY GENTLEMEN.

r.
Gentlemen of the utmost respectability are reduced in their
country houses, to the dulness of a domestic circle, and there-
by are frequently induced to attempt suicide in the fall of the
year, or what is still more melancholy, driven to invite to
their houses those ancient and well-known families, the Tags,
the Rags, the Bob-tails, and the Bores; and having observed
the facility with which the public is supplied with job-horses,
and with books from circulating libraries, he has opened an
office in London for the purpose of furnishing country houses
with a regular succession,of company and guests, on the most
reasonable terms. For an annual subscription of 30 guineas, a
country Gentleman will be supplied with four guests a week,
to be changed at the will of the subscriber. An annual sub-
scribe; of 15 guineas will be supplied with two guests, to be
changed once a fortnight. A non-subscriber within 25 miles
of London, may be furnished with guests by the day or week,
upon undertaking to be' answerable for breakage on ,the
road. Mr. *****"'s catalogue contains an elegant assortment
of 617 guests, amongst them may be found three Irish Peers,
seven Scots Peers, 13 Baronets, six Yellow Admirals nine-
teen Major-Generals (who narrate the entire Spanish war)
thirty:seven Dowagers, 314 Old Maids, on annuities; and
several unbenficed Clergymen (who play the fiddle), Deaf and
Dunib people. Sportsmen, and Gentlemen, who describe Paris
and Fonthill, may be had at half-price. They can all play at
cards, and generally with success,if partners, .and they will
have no objection to play of a morning (during rain). The
guest to be fed by the Country Gentleman, as in the case of
job hones, and claret to be produced if Sots or Irish Peers are
required. If any guest should be disapproved of, the Country
Gentleman is desired by Mr. ***** • to write Bore against
his name in the Catalogue, or to chalk it on liis back- when he
leaves the honse, and his place shall be supplied by return of
the stapx.coadt.

PROPOSED REPEAL OF THE DUTY ON LEGACIES

TO PUBLIC CIiARIVES.

, •
Sat—The Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs having intimated to the House of Com-
mons, on Friday, the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer's intention of communicatiug on that day
se'imight what Ministers had to propose, with
regard to a considerable reduction of direct tax-
ation, I avail myself, through the Medium of your
Paper, of reminding the several Members of Par-
liament, with whom I have had the honour to
correspond, on the propriety of the Repeal of
that part of the LEGACY DUTY ACT which re•
lates to the Public Charities, soliciting them to
urge the necessity and justice of the repeal there-
of, in their respective places in Parliament, on
Friday, now that Ministers are enabled to take
off part of the Taxation ; and surely the Tax on
the Poor (which decidedly this is) should be
their first consideration to repeal. Hoping the
Gentlemen will excuse me addressing them
severally, as it would take up so much time,
1 am, Sir, your obedient servant,

I• UNERAL of the LATE EARL of FARNHAX

The funeral of this lamented Nobleman, took place at Cavan
Church, on the 20th inst. The great body of the inhabitants
of the County assembled on the melancholy occasion, to testify
the universal respect and attachment which the virtues of the
deceased patriOtit Nobleman had procured for him, and the
general sorrow for his loss. Numbers went to meet the hearse
near the bounds of the county, a distance of 18 or 20 miles from
the place of interment ; and such was the vast multitude of per-
sons of all ranks, who mournfully attended his remains to the
grave, that the funeral procession, though occupying a eon•
siderable space in breadth, extended to a length of upwards of
three miles. It was impossible to supply more than a com-
paratively small portion of the vast assemblage with scarfs and
hatbands, though more than one thousand five hundred were
distributed. Tlie Lord Bishop of the diocese, attended by
upwards of thirty of the Clergy. in their robes, met the
coffin on its entrance into the town, and conducted it to
the Church ; and the remains of the deceased Nobleman
were conveyed to interment in the family vault with every
funeral honour due to his distinguisinsi rank. But the
