The Report of tie Special Committee oti the
resolution of the Chamber of Diities, relative
to the admission of its Members, was made by the
Duke de Doudeauville, and ordered to be printed

and divriboted.
" The Chamber then formed itself into a Jo-

dicial Co rt.

" CHAMBER OF DEPUTTEs, .T.YC. 31.

" The discussion on the Recruitment Prajet
was resumed. The 16th Article was taken into
corsideration, and after a short conversation
agreed to. In Article 17, relative to the making
out and publishing of the list of the contingent
of each Canton, and the final'discharge of the
young men not included in Lieut.-General the
Count Dupont moved an atriendment, to the effect
that the discharge should not be dual.
'' M. Barthe-Labastide put the case of a cam-
paign sweeping off the whole of,the levy of the
preceflinLt year, and suggested that the amend-
ment shvnl•l he to the effect that the discharge
should he dual except in case ot' war.

" discussion on this point was not entered
into, it being deemed to belong more properly to
Article 23, tl►e first of title-4, respecting the Ve-

ter an Legions.

" Art. 17. was then agreed to without pre-
judging any thing respecting Title 4 on the

reSerVe.

" In Article IS, respecting Substitutes, the
amendment. proposed by the Committee was
agreed to, limiting the age if beyond which a
Substitute should not be received to 30, or if he
Lad been a soldier to 35. The Article.with this,

and another amendment of detail, was agreed to.

" The Marquis de Dot is then moved an addi-
tion to the article, to the effect that if the young
men of any Canton should produce a number of
tub•titutes equal to the amount of its Contingent,
such Canton should he exempted front any ballot,
and also another addition respecting the replacing
of deserters.

" The Count Beugnot objected to Ole first pro-
position', that it would destroy altogether the
'hole system of the law, substituting for it a re-
cruitment by bounty, and converting France into
a vast market for men, in which the Cantons
would be contending with each other.

" M. Planelli de la Valette and M. Paillot (lc

Loynes snpported the amendment.
" M. de Courvoisier (wined it, observing,
that in the time of the Revolution, when the Can-
tons furnished their contingents in this manner,
the men sent were generally the very worst
soldiers.

" M. Dupleix de Mczy proposed a sub-amend-
ment, to the effect that the ballot should never-
theless take place, and in case of one or more
deserters, the young men first drawn should
march to replace them, unless they found new sub-
stitutes.

" After sonic further discussion, these amend-
ments and sub-amendment were got rid of by the

previous question.
Art. i 9, with an amendment proposed by the
Committee, leaving the most complete latitude to
the Government as to the distribution of the bal-
loted men in the respective corps, and also witl
An amendment proposed by M. de Solilbac, for
suppressing the depar►mental companies, was

.made se-
veral efforts to induce the Pacha of Egypt to ab-

The British Public may form a shrewd guess at
the state of affairs in time revolted Colonies of
Spain, when they find, by our Ship News, that
their chief Champion, Sir Gneooß M'GREGOR,
arrived on Monday at Liverpool.

The chief subject of Debate yesterday in Par-
liament related to the expected Restrictions on
Bank Payments in Cash ; but as we give a co-
pious Report of Parliamentary Proceedings in
another portion of our Paper, it is not necessary
that we should do more than repeat what we
have before said on the occasion. We refer to
Lord LIVERPOOL'S Speech, which, upon the same
principles which were urged a few nights ago in
the House of Commons by the CHANCELLOR of
the EXCHEQUER, 11111 St ,have satisfied all men who
are not hunting for every occasion to attack the
measures of Govern Merit. If the proposed Re-
striction should not take place, we shall, in a
short time, have no Gold in the Country, but
what is withheld from the circulation by avarice
and other motives, or what i 3, from its intrinsic
vabie, sacrificed to mercenary interests. The pe-
cuniary negociations now on foot with Foreign
States, and other considerationS, render the mat-
ter so clear, that it cannot be puzzled by party
spirit, and all objections seem indeed to have that
only for its foundation. On the subject of the
Internal State of the Country, the papers rela-
tive to which had been laid on the table of the
House, of Lords, a Committee is to be ballotted
for on Thursday ; who are to take those papers
into consideration, and give their Report on the
