After the ceremony the,friends of .the National
School tritely established in that' parish, in South•
ampton-inews, near Euston-squ'are, for tire edu-
cation of 1400 children, dined together at the.
Freemason's Tavern, and a handsome subscription
fur tiAtti exeslient and praiseworthy institution
was made:: ,

The day was uncommonly fai.ottrable, and the'
whole of the ceremony had a very siriking effect.
When the half of the codipany, hail nearly retired,
a ohmerous. gals of pickpockets_ rushed in and.
went op to .the stone, where,' from the immense
pressure of the crowd, they were able more easily
to effect their nefarious purposes. A number of
Ladies were deprived of- their -shawls, weitches,
; and many Gentlemen lost their pocket-
hooks, watch-seal•, &c.—Every possible exertion
was made by the constables atti:nding'on the oc-
casion, and, after 'a desperate resistance, they
succeeded in securing a number of'the gang-,;and
took them to -the watch-house„ Nut winhstanding
the great number present, we are happy t 6 leitn
no serious accident ocettrred.

of tbe gallant 28th. Foot, an Officer eminently
fitted for this distinguished rank, having been

various affairs of less moment. Several Officers of
experience have already joined tire. Light Infantry,
which vrontißes to be, in every respect, one of the
finest eflllts iu the Pattiot Service, Though but
artew `tday3 on font, such is the anxiety of of.
Ecem.and men to obtain trdmis.sion into-this re-
giment, gra( there is no, troOt of its being cow-.
at sea before Fhe I t of August.—
The First' .Rifle Regiment of Devereox's Legion

FOREIGN ENLISTMENT BILL. ,‘

'The Coil of LivEltrtiot..'noved the third read.;
ing-of this' Rill, tie observed, that he intended
to propose Amite qualifying amendment or proviso
to that elaAe which was the most liable to obs.
jection in the discussilin of last ni;'4lii, namely,
th.at.fK attaching the penalties of the Bill .on in-
dividuals going abroad for the putpose or 'mien-
lion of robs! &c. The jet of the proviso.
moved by the Noble. Minister seemed to he, that
the informer should be requited to state upon oath
the facts or circumstances upon which he ground-'
ed his informaiion.

After a short conversation,, in which the Earl
of ROSSLYN Chit tly participated, the was
agreed to by their Li,rdship4, and the Bill read the
third time and passed.

The 'Warp-less of LitopowNE stated his inten-
tion to move, on Monday next; that what was
cAlled the Poor's Minppli6ation .Bill should be

for which procedure he should then assign his
reasons.

their Lordships, most numerously and respectably,
signed, from a pat.t of the City of Dublin agaiost,
the 13111.,

The Earl of LIVERroor. observed, that under
these circumstances of the case, the Bill'adverted
to being disposed of by the Hutt,e, though swig
rejected, he rather doubted whether
„the petiriOn•
could he regidarly received.
The Earl of DONOUGHMORB spoke shortly in
explanation. _ •
The Earl of LIMERICK stated/ that he bad very
recently received letters from the South of Ire-
land, which stated that a tetition, very numerously
,sittned-, may shortly be rxl7ec=ed against the 13111
