TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 28, 1826

(From the Court Circular.)
Yesterday his Majesty held his first Levee for the sea-
son; it was held at St. James's Palace, being the first ever
held there by his present Majesty. Sir Richard Birnie,
the Chief Magistrate of Police, attended, with Tewnsend
and Sayers, and a numerous body of police, for the pur-
pose of keeping order, &c.
A numerous, detachment of the Life Guards, preceded
by their band in state uniforms, took up their station near
the Palace about one o'clock. As none of the company
entered by the Palace-yard, the guard of honour, with the
band in state uniforms, marched into and occupied the
open space which lies between the Palace and Marlborough
House. The band continued playing various airs during
the afternoon.
The attendants of the Court were the same as those at
the Court held last Thursday. The Yeetuari of the Guard
occupied the armoury, and two of the tallest men in, the
regiment of the Life Guards were stationed at the top of
the staircase.
Soon after two o'clock his Majesty left his private
apartments, and proceeded to his drawing-room, habited
in a dark blue uniform, decorated with several splendid
orders, , and ascended the throne, surrounded by his great
Officers of State, several of the Cabinet Ministers, and
various attendants. The Convocation of the Clergy
(upon the assembling of the new Parliament), preceded
by their Mace, attended by several clerical functionaries,
were introduced by Mr. Secretary Canning, in the absence
of Mr. Secretary Peel. The address from the Convoca-
tion was read by the Archbishop of Canterbury, to which
his Majesty was pleased to return a most gracious answer.
His Grace was attended by a numerous assemblage of
divines, who approached his Majesty making their obeis-
ances, the honourable band of Gentlemen Pensioners
forming an avenue for them to the Throne. Among the
dignified clergy were the Bishop of London, the Bishop
of Exeter, the Bishop of Llandaff, Archdeacon Potts, Dr.
Goodenough, the Rev. Dr. D'Oyley.
After his Majesty had returned the answer, he retired
to his closet, and gave private audiences to Mr. Secretary
Canning and Mr. Secretary Peel, received presentations of
several foreigners of distinction, and the compliments of
the diplomatic corps, his Cabinet Ministers, and others
who have the privilege of the cntre.
The King then returned to the drawing-room, in which
a chair of state had been placed, half way up the room, so
as to be opposite to the door through which the company
were to enter. Immediately after His Majesty had seated
himself, he commenced receiving the numerous presenta-
tions and visitors, who passed on and retired to the adjoin-
ing state apartments. There were present their Excellen-
cies, Ambassadors, and Ministers, viz., Austrian, French,
Netherlands, Bavarian, Danish, Prussian, Swedish, Saxon,

ROUSE OP LORDS, AfoNomr, Nov. 27.

. -
The Earl of LAUDERDALE moved that there be
laid before the House a return of the market prices of whest_from
1546 to 1826, with the Windsor measure reduced to the Wizteltester
standard. His only object in making this motion was to obtain a
regular account of the prices of wheat from the earliest possible
period down to the present time. Returns of this kind had usually
been furnished by .Itlr. Irvine ; Lyzt as an account of the Windsor
market 'prices was kept in Eton College, he tuity.no reason why
the return might not at once be mad. by the Registrar, with the

sirous that their Lordship, should have before them a list sfprices

theories their Lordships night afterwards think fit to ad0pt...,..
Ordered. Adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, Moslns.Y.
LAL F-PA Y COMMISSIONS,
Mr. HUME rose to give notice that on Thursday
neat he should move for a return of all Officers orihalf-pay who
have been allowed to sell their Commissions, and also for an ac-
I count of the money paid and received for the sale of such com-
mission..
CAPE OF' GOOD HOPE AND SIERRA LEONE.
Mr. HUME, perceiving the Under Secretary of
State for the Colonies in his place, begged to ask him in what
state of forwardness, at the present moment, were the reports of
the Commissioners from the Cape of Good Hope and Sierra Leone.
The question tntiching the eatitluct of the Governor of the former
Colony had very properly been postponed last Session, but be
wished the lion. Secretary to state now for the information of
the House, when it was intended to bring forward the whole of
the proceedings under the commission appointed to investigate
the charges referred to.
Mr. W. HORTON begged to assure the Hon.
Member, that the required information should, as soon as possible
be laid before Parliament. The Hon. Member must be aware of
the delay and difficulty of collecting information, such as the
House could with propriety act on, relating to charges, the scene
of which lay in a distant part of the world. The Commission's*,
however, had nearly completed their task, and there was little
doubt but that, ou the first day of the assembling of Parliament
after the recess, the result of their inquiry would be laid, hefote
the House. With respeet to Sierra Leone, the CoMmissieners
appointed to that inquiry were expected.,to arrive in England in
December.' and ever, neeripary *fa:Motion connected with their
mdission'Wonlel be duly brought foriviird: ,
MR. GOUR.LAY.
HUME said, that he had been requested by
an individual to present a petition to the House relating to
a revision of the Poor Laws, and to a mode for employing the
poor. The petitioner had devoted a great deal of hit time to tint
consideration of the subject, but the 'omit of his inquiries he
(Mr. 11ume) was not prepared, at present, to go into. ' The
Hon. Member then presented the petition of Robert Gourlay,
praying the Houle to take into consideration the present state of
the poor laws, and to adopt some mode for the more effectual mu-
ployrnent of the poor.
IRELAND.
Mr. HUME gave notice of his intention to sub-
mit a motion to the House relative to the extent of the Church
Establishment in Ireland ; ind it was also his intention, at as
early a period as possible, to propose to the Howie the propriety
of withdrawing from Ireland the whole eetablishment of the
Viceroy.

CORN LAWS.
Nfr. 111.),ME said, he held in his hand, petitions
&can Aberdeen, Inverberrie, Montrose, Aberbrothiek, and Brechin,
all of which places be had the honour to represent, praying for
speedy revision of the Corn-laws. The petitions stated, that the
admission by Ministers of foreign grain, was a measure of pru-
dence and necessity, and the petitioners were unanimous in their
expression of that opinion. The petitions were signed by a great
many landed proprietors, and even those eersona supported their
prayer. The concluding part of those petitions prayed the House
not to adopt any half measure, with regard to.the Cortt-laws, but
so to deal with them as to remove the necessity of Ministers having
again to claim an indemnity from Parliament for effecting merely a
temporary good. All the petitions were respectively and numer-
ously signed, and they certainly merited more than ordinary
attention, from the circumstance of all the petitioners betties
united in approving of the course pursued by his Majeaty's Go-
vernment with respect' to the importation of foreign grain,
which furnished the only instance of a similar unanimity of
feeling on that important question. The Hun, Member then
claimed the indulgence of the house while be referred to a report
in a daily paper, tending, as he said, to injure him in the eyes of
the country. Ile was Avell aware of the malice and inveterate
rancour pursued towards him by some individuals connected with
the public press, who gave publication to a series of calumnies
that seriously affected his character. He hoped, however, that
the time was not far distant when the imputations under which
he laboured would be satisfactorily cleared apt by &full explanation
of the circumstances to Which those imputations had given rise.
The Non, Member then said, in alluding to the report in question,
that at the close of his observations respecting the Corn question,
a few nights ago, When he called upon Minister" not to
postpone
the consideration of that important
mettaure, as the peACt of the
country and the interest of the people at large would not admit of
delay, it was said that he was coughed down. Had such been
the case, it would certainly not have been . the heat time that. the
house.isad, signified a wish that lie should not say n'Fral ihut
he begged to state that his meaning on the oetinneu 4.4U-
ded to, was only partly gore% and to say that he experi-
enced in that house each treatment, was ontY adding to the
calumnies with which he was combine), smiled. lie had
too much confidence in the indulgetuv of she.•llQuaai and the
favour of the Speaker, to oupptwe that owl treatment wouhl have
been pursued towards hint. He stated then, and he now begged
leave to repeat the sentence, which, at the time he delivered it,
did not appear to have been understood. His words were, r. The
broad principal of the Corn Lawn involved not only the interest of
consideration oftbat question could not with safety be postpone
or part that sentence was not given, and he felt it a
the people, but the peace of the country," and that therefore i+ the

under the greatest distress and misery ; attut if

postponement of tints most vital question. So ettriteatly
did he kel the necessity of an early consideration of the
Corn Laws, that if his Majesty's Miniattni should still des.
terrains to defer its discussion, he (Mr. Hume) would him-
self endeavour to induce the. House to bring in a DM

should take up the question, it was not at all improbable but that
he (Mr. Hume) would very shortlysubntit a motion to the Hones
to that effect. Let those who woald, oppose his motion ; lie

should feel satisfied in the conviction that he had done his duty
to the country, as a Member of that 'House, in bringing it for-
ward. The Hon. Gentleusa» proceeded to contend, that the fears
of the country gentlestron were considerahly'eVersbdad with re.
ferenre to the corn question ; and 'nothing, he maintained, but a
fair and full diseuesion of the (Ant could bring its, hearings
fairly before, the public, with a view to the interest dill daises.
He hoped that the observations which be threw thus loosely to_
Realer, would not be lost upon the. How, and that it would not
seriously entertain the intention of separating for three months
without .Carriing to some decision on a question of such a para-
mount importance as the corn laxvx.
0* the question that the petitions be brought up,
Mr.' HURST said, he could assure the House
that the landed interest did not by any means feel the alarm on
the subject of the earn laws which was attributed to them. He,
for one, bad a well-grounded interest in that luiportant and vital
qu est ion ; but he had a hill etmlidenee in the wisdom and discte-
tion of the Howse, and he was satisfied that it would not proceed
to legislate not such a subject without maturely weighing, the inte-
mts of all parties concerned. lie hoped that the day would not
be very distant. when the Corn Laws would be brought forward.
The commercial and landed interests, he felt assured, wishes! for
its speedy settlement; for so long as it remained in a state of un-
certainty and doubt, so long those interests were considerably re-
tarded.

The petitions, which prayed the House to abolish the existing
laws restricting the importation of foreign grain, were then brought
up, and ordered to be printed.
- Mr. HENRY GRATTAN_ presented a petition
from the Hoo. Henry Southwell, complaining of an undue return •
for the Ctiunty of Cavan.
COMMITTEE Or suPPI.V.
Sir ALEXANDER GRANT, as Chairman of
Committee, pro temp., brought up the report of the Committee
on the motion of Supply.
On the question that it be read a second time,
Mr. HUME did trot WWI to otter any opposition
to the present motion, which ha was tware was one of conrse;
but he felt anxious to know whether it tiros the intention of the
Chancellor of the Exchequet tolvote, at the present time, the
usual estimates in a Committee of Supply.
Mr. HERMES begged to state, in reply to the
question of the Hon. Gentleman, that with, the exception of the
usual vote for Exchequer Bills, it was not intended to propose the
estimates until the next meeting of Parliament, when the appro-
priation of last year's EstiMates would also be voted.
Sir ALEXANDER GRANT brought up the
`Report of the Corn Indemnity Committee, and a Bill was ordered
to he prepared, and brought in. •
Mr. C. W. WYNN gave notice, that on an early
day after the mess, it was his intention to move, that the thanks
of the House should be given to the officers and men who contri-
buted to the glorious success of our arms in India.—(Hear, bear.)
The House then adjourned at a quarter to, Ave o'clock till to-
morrow.
