POSTAGE DUTIES BILL.

Mr. HERRIES moved the third reading of the Postage
Duties Bill.

Mr. BERNAL and Mr. HUME objected to the Bill,
from its not containing some regulations which had been
before suggested, and which ought to have been adored.
Mr. HERRIES replied, that the general subject of the
Post Office regulations was at present under inquiry by a
Commission, and when they should have the Report of
that Commission before them, they would be enabled more
fully and clearly to ascertain what more regulations were
required.
Mr. HI ME still objected that he could see no reason
why letters sent by the packets from Ireland to Scotland, a
distance of twenty-four miles, should be charged four-
pence, while letters similarly sent from Ireland to Eng-
land, a distance of two hundred miles, were only charged
two-pence each.
Sir JOHN NEWPORT supported the regulation ; and
after some further observations, the third reading of the
Bill was postponed till that day se'nnight ; after which the
House adjourned.

BRIDEWELL OF EDINBURGH.

Mr. HUME stated, that he had on a former occasion
procured an order for a return of the Commitments into
the Bridewell Prison of Edinburgh during a certain pe-
riod. Some difF. 7ulties had been found to the preparing
the proper Returns under that Order ; and he therefore
moved that the Order be discharged.—The Order was
discharged accordingly.
Mr. HUME then said, that he wished to obtain his ob-
ject by another motion of the same nature ; but couched
in terms as to render it more easy to make up the Return.
He believed that the House would agree with him, that it
was highly proper such a Return should be made, when it
was considered how often the same individuals had been
committed to this prison. For example, one individual
had, since 1811, been committed to this prison ne less than
sixty-five times—(Hear.)—so very comfortable did they
make their prisons in Edinburgh, that people preferred
procuring a lodging in them, to liberty and hard labour.
He concluded by moving for a Return of Persons com-
mitted to the Edinburgh Bridewell during a certain pe-
riod.—Ordered accordingly.
Mr. HERRIES moved for a new writ for the election
of a Member of Parliament, in the room of the Right Hon.
W. C. Plunket, who had been lately raised to the Peerage.
Ordered accordingly.
The further consideration of the Report of the Distresses
in Ireland Bill was postponed till Friday,

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE.—May 1.
There has been a fair weekly import of Wheat and
Flour, with a large supply of Pease round land ; but the
arrivals of Oats, and of all other Grain, are small. Our
millers purchased freely of 'Wheat, and the sales of the
week have been nearly equal to the supply, without pro-
ducing any improvement in prices. Oats have continued
excessively dull, but there are few of fine quality on sale,
and some holders, in their anxiety to force sales, have
submitted to a small decline. Malt, Barley, and Beans,
have remained steady in price, with a very limited sale.
Pease have fallen from 2s. to 3s. per quarter. In Flour
and Oatmeal no alteration.

INSOLTENT DEBTORS' COURT.

- erheatley, a person of respectable ap-
pearance, Who was arraigned and acquitted of a
charge of forgery at, the last summer assizes. for
Dorchester, 'was brought up this day on his petition,
.to be. dis Charged, and was opposed by Mr. Heath,
on the.part of Stoclidale, the publisher of " Harriette
Wilson's Memoii s."

It-appear& the petitioner possessed an annuity of
2001. a-year, which had been granted to him by his
mother, and secured on her estate. This annuity,
the -insolvent sold in 1812, for 2,100/. to a
Mr. Carrick Of York, and a question now arose, whe-
ther the insolvent was not liable by his personal
covenant, for' any part of the arrears 'of the annuity,
which had not been paid out of the rental .of the
estate.
The Couirr was of opinion, that the insolvent was
bound to look more particularly into his affairs, and
to furnish some satisfactory account of the nature of
his transations with Mr. Carrick. The case was
therefore directed to stand over sine die.

. .
John Robert Hemingway, who was brought up on
his, petition, was remanded for three months, for
giving an undue preference to some of his creditors,
by improperly assigning over a share which he held
in the ship Mino'va.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.

SUSSEX.—Some of the Hop Plantations in this
county now present a very promising appearance, .
so their produce is likely very much to exceed what
at one time was expected.

!-EAsT.RTFoR.D.—The Hop Plantations in this
district present a varied appearance. In the south-
western_ part the
.bines present a most healthy ap-
pearance, and there is a prospect of much more than
an average crop; whilst in other parts the aphides
have made so much havoc that a top crop only can
be expected. In the early part of the season that
friendly insect, the Kentish devil, made its
.appear-
ance, and was destroying the vermin rapidly. Had
the weather been as favourable, a very full crop
would have been the consequence ; on the whole,
ho,.vever, there is no reason to complain.

FATAL PUGILISTIC RENCONTRE.----On
Wednesday a Coroner's Inquest was held at the Coach and
Horses, Compton-street, Soho, on the body of Robert
Hutchinson, well known amongst the amateurs of the
Prize ring, as " fighting Bob," who was killed at the
above house, on Tuesday evening last, in a fray with a
Welshman,
named Roberts. It appeared in evidence, that
the deceased and Roberts were drinking together, when a
quarrel ensues],unlucky blow and they fought. The deceased received an
from his antagonist, which felled him to the
ground, and he never spoke more. They fought in a room
for upwards of forty minutes. The deceased was a most
excellent fighter, and was said to have fought more than
130 battles, in nearly all of which he had been successful.
It was proved that Roberts was obliged to fight in his own
defence, and the Jury returned a verdict of " Justifiable
Homicide."

MONTHLY MAGAZINE.

This is one of the most improving and aspir-
ing of periodicals. In addition to many favourite
writers of the day, the editor, or rather the pro-
prietor, has enlisted Mr. William Hazlitt, an
author who, for metaphysical acuteness and spi-
rited observation, has few or no superiors among
the present literati. In his present Essay, en-
titled " Ways and Means," manifestly a con
amore composition, he has indulged in paradox
and aphorism to profusion ; indeed with such
reckless disregard to correctness, as to have con-
tradicted himself on one of those decided sub-
jects, in which all men, Mr. H. in particular,
are interested—we mean love. A few months
since (for our author is one of those whose re-
marks, be they right or wrong, are not easily to
be forgotten) he boldly asserted that enthusiasm in-
sured its own success, adding, thatalover who was
resolved to gain his mistress must, as a necessary
consequence, be successful. He now as unequi-
vocally asserts (with Dr. Johnson, a writer who,
though perhaps he knew less of the subtleties,
less of the maudlin sensibilities, of the human
heart, was incomparably superior to Mr. H.
in a certain sound healthy acquaintance with its
general peculiarities,) that excessive feeling is
against a lover, because it deprives him of the
easy address requisite to ensure success. Here
he is right ; the hypocrite (provided he be
an accomplished one) must ahsays triumph
over the man of genuine sensibility, who,
except to close observers—is insufferably
disgusting. Women, in nine cases out of tell,
arc captivated solely with an easy, confident, and

unruffled exterior and address—the tenth case is
that of a " Blue," who looks to the mind of her
husband, and as a necessary consequence, picks
a quarrel with him the very first Saturday after the
marriage. Now the man ofgenuine feeling is usually
a man shy, nervous, and awkward to a degree ;
his very Modesty wears the appearance of impu-
dence, his humility the aspect of pride. Can
such a creature be tolerated at Almaeks ? Let
Mr. Hazlitt himself answer ; we simply state the
hypothesis, which we should never have intro-
duced had it not been to convict him of incon-
sistency. The sketch which calls itself" Pyramus
and Thisbe," professes to be burlesque ; it is not,
however, so good even in that respect as one of
Mr. Irving's discourses, when he means to be
exceedingly argumentative ; we shall therefore
dismiss it by saying, that it is a joke four pages
and a half long. The " Origin of Language "
is good, but the reader will find much of it in
Tooke's Diversions of Purley, a neglected
but valuable work. " Some account of a
Lover," is as stupid as such accounts are apt to
be ; so stupid, indeed, that unless Lord Lon-
donderry, or our Somersetshire Demosthenes, be
its author, we know of no one sufficiently qua-
lified.to attempt it. On second thoughts, we
conceive that Mr. Dillon* must be its manu-
facturer. " Notes for the Month," are, as
usual, lively, Miscellaneous, and ancedotical.

[ eedom which is his characteristic, but udortunately
he was not listened to. Had he been better second-
ed, he would have completely justified the confidence
which the Royalists have always placed in him.
" MINISTER 01 STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS—
__

The Bishop of Leon, Don Joaquin Al; arc;, a pre-
late gifted with east knowledge in polities and in
government. He is a man of impregnable firmness,
and gave proofs of it under the Cortes. He is one
of the most influential Royalists in Spain, and one
of the most distinguished members of the Council
of State.

" MINISTER OF GRACE AND JUSTICE.—Don Jose
Garcia de !a Torre: This Councillor of State, who
has been a Minister before, but for a very short
time, enjoys the greatest consideration. By the in-
tenseness of his studies, and the magnitude of his
talents, he is qualified for any office. His private
virtues, and his public qualities, pointed him out
long since to the King as a fit person to fill the im-
portant place of Minister of Justice and of the
Interior.

"MINISTER OF FINANCE.—Jean Baptiste de Erro,
formerly Minister of Finance, and now in the Coun-
cil of State. He perfectly understands all the
details of the public service relating to finance : his
sentiments and his principles are excellent. _ _

" MINISTER OF WAR.---Liela.-Gen. Don Maza-
rio Eguia, a very good officer. He is of a firm and
straight-forward character, which makes him be-
loved by the soldier. Royalist at all hazards, he
possesses, besides, all the knowledge required by
his situation.

" GOVERNMENT OF THE SUPREME COUNCIL OF
CASTILE.—Don Philip Lobrado, now a Councillor
and even canaari•st to the Council. A profound
lawyer—his character and his opinions leave us
nothing to wish for.

" There is only left the Ministry of Marine, for
which no person is pointed out with sufficient exact-
ness for me to give you his name. You may, however,
rely on the accuracy of the details which I have just
given you. They hold forth hopes, which it will
he fortunate for Spain and for our King 'to see
speedily converted into reality."

NAVAL 'AND MILITARY MAGAZINE.

As an illustrative reed-A by anecdote, history,
biography, and analysis, of the two in6.li import-
ant professions in the United Kingdom, this
Magazine has no inconsiderable claims to dis•
tinction. It is, however, too bulky and diffuse
in execution, too much devoted to the resusci-
tation of stale matter. What business has Mr.
Hood's powerful tale of the " Shield's Collier"
in a work like the present ? It is as irrelevant
as would be the introduction of Dr. Parr's
" Spital Sermon," or Porson's " Treatise on
the Greek Tragic Metres." The Editor, what-
ever praise may be due to him for the con-
ception, has much to amend in the execution
of his naval and military magazine. He must
first study condensation, and remember that an
anecdote diluted through four close printed pages
is as great an anomaly as an epigram in twenty-
four books. He must also consider that Royal
letters, printed for the twentieth time, may be
safely looked upon as stale. Moreover, he must
reflect that " remarks on pistol shooting," are
better adapted to the meridian of the Red
House, Battersea, than either to the army or
navy. "To teach the young idea how to shoot"
may suit a suburban schoolmaster, whose
comprehensive genius teaches every thing
froth mathematics to needle-work (both inclu-
sive), but is surely beneath the dignity of
a periodical, which professes to edify our
initiated warriors by land or sea.. When these
trifling defects are expunged, and more pertinent
matter introduced in their stead, we shall see
DO reason to speak otherwise than favourably of
Mr. C. Smith's Magazine.
