NAVAL AND MILITARY PENSIONS.

The C El ANC ELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved
that the Report of the Resolutions agreed to in the
Committee on provision for future Payments of Naval,
Military, and other Pensions, be received.
Mr. BERNAL observed, that he was not in the
ll:mse when the Resolutions were proposed on a for-
mer night, but he had read accounts of what trans-
pired. In much of what had been stated he perfectly
agreed. He doubted not that persons would be found
to contract for the proposed loan—for a loan in
reality it was—(licar, /scar.)—But he wished to learn
from the Chancellor of the Exchequer; what securi-
ties it was proposed to take for the fulfilment of the
contract?—(Hear).—lf there were no securities ob-
tained, and if the parties found that they had not an
advantageous bargain, they might have the Chancel-
lor coming down to the House, and informing them
that there was a refusal to fulfil the contract. Against '
such a contingency they ought to protect the coun-
try. Then, as to the terms of the contract, it ought
to be recollected, that if a war were to arise in the
course of three or four years, many of the Officers
would immediately be placed on full-pay. Some pro-
vision ought to be made for the occurrence of such
an event.—(An Hon. Member near Mr. Bernal here
made some communication to him.)—But this point
be would not pursue further ; he understood it had
been satisfactorily explained on a former evening,
therefore all he now wished to know was, what se-
curities there were to be for the due fulfilment of the
proposed contract?
The CHANCELLOR. of the EXCHEQUER ob-
served, that to detail, -at the present moment, what
arrangements it might be in contemplation to pro-
pose, would only be to waste the time of the House.
If the Resolutions had the sanction of the House, it
would of course be his duty to submit to it the terms
of the proposed contract before it was finally agreed
upon. The question of securities, he apprehended,
was perfectly easy. The transaction was deemed to
be of the nature of ordinary loans: the parties con-
' tracting, it would be recollected, were to make the
adzances to the Government, and they were to be
gradually repaid.
The Report was then brought up ; and, on the
question that the Resolutions be now read,
General G A SCOYN E begged to state, that he now
• bad no objection to them : what he had urged on a
former evening was founded on a mistake, into which
he had fallen in considering the ResolutiOns. He now
_fully approved of the principle on which they pro-
ceeded.—The Resolutions, which were as follow,
were then read : •
" 1. That it is the opinion oft)* Committee, that the amount
• of Military and Naval Pensions, and Civil Superannuations, may
be estimated•at about £5,000,000.
".y nut it is the opinion of this Committee, that this sum,
calculated as an annuity guaranteed by 'Parliament, may be con-
sidered a. a burden, forming a charge upon the public income of
the Country, for the lives of the annuitants, subject to such re-
Tilations as are applicable in each case.
" 3. That it is the opinion of this Comtnlttee, that the amount

The men fought gamely for twenty minutes, with equal ad-
vantages, when Edmonds gave it a turn in his favour, and floored
his adversary by a heavy body blow. This was in the 20th round.

PEDESTRIANISM.
Lrverteom., May I.—A singular feat of pedestrianism is now
performing on the Regent-road, North Shore. A man, whose
name we have not been able to ascertain, has undertaken to walk
backwards for three successive days, in twelve hours, the enor-
mous length of 38 miles a day being upwards of three miles an
hour. About twenty minutes past seven, on Monday morning,
he commenced his undertaking, and completed the'immense
ranee of 39 miles at ten minutes past seven in the evening. Yes-
terday morning (Tuesday), about five minutes after seven, he
renewed his arduous task ; arid, aithongh the flay was unusually
warm for the season of the year, and the interruption from the
eoneoutse of people assembled to witness his undertiking consi-
derable, he completed his performance about six miuutes before
seven. This morning (Wednesday), about, the usual time, he
resumed his task.

A few days since, a man of colour, nick-named
Tirpo,Saib,in the employ of a coach-master in Swal,
low-street, undertook, for a trifling wager, to chew,
and swallow a tumbler glass, which he did, but was
shoftly after taken ill, and died in great pain.
In addition. to the low prices of provisions, a very
material reduction in the Poor-Rate; has taken place
in several populous parishes ; particularly in the ex-
tensive parish of St. Mary, Lambeth, where, notwith,
standing a late demand for a County It,ae of nearly
£l,BOO, the Poor-Rate is reduced from the year
1820 to the pie;ent one, £10,490. 4s.

SCROFULA. •
Isle of Walney, near Ulverstone, June 11, 1821.
SIR—I was dreadfully afflicted with a scorbutic
running ulcer in my neck, for the space of nine months,
which was most severe under the right side of my jaw. After
k..ving tried various medicines, and seeking the advice of the
most eminent of the faculty, I was brought to the most deplo-
rable state, and saw no relief but in that dissolution which I
verily believed to be near at hand ; at length, being advised by
a friend to try the efficacy of your ANTISCORBUTIC
DROPS, 1 purchased a es. 6d. bottle, and before I had taken
'rem a fortnight, I found great relief : a short time after, all the
i nee part of the afflicted jaw-bone came out, and then my cure
was completed by the ulcer gradually healing like a common
wound. I, however, continued to take the Drops till I bad
finished the second bottle, and now enjoy as perfect health as I
ever had in my life.
I am, Sir, your grateful and obedient servant,
Witness S. Donaldson. THOMAS HARRISON.

DISTRESS IN IRELAND.
The Report of the Committee to consider the Irish
Distress was brought up, after a few words from Mr.
BERNAL and Mr. GOULBURN.

Mr. S. WORTLEY could not omit the present op-
portunity of condemning the practice of seeking
forced benevolence for the aid of the suffering Irish
by gring from house to house—(Hear, hear).—lt
would be better for Government to apply at once to
Parliament for a sufficient sum.
Mr. CALCRAFT concurred in the opinion of the
last speaker.
Mr. BENNET expressed himself to the same effect.
lie had himself thought it right to refuse attending
to the application cf the Churchwardens of his own
parish when they applied to him for his subscription.)
He would subscribe in his own way, and as he
thought proper.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said,
he agreed that it would be better to take a Vote of
Credit to meet any exigency which might occur
during the recess.
Mr. DAWSON thought the practice of collecting
from door to door Was highly objectionable; though
he was in general friendly to the invitation of pli-
cate liberality.
General GASCOYNE feared the cause of the pre-
sent distress was a permanent one. If a Vote of Cre-
dit were to be called for, he thought an inquiry into
the cause should be set on foot, with a view of afford-
ing, if possible, permanent relief.—The Report was
then read and agreed to.

PIGEON SHOOTING.

The fourth and lagt day for the decision of the Annual Gc'•l
Medal of 100 guineas value, by the Gentlemen of the Old I:_is
Club, at 60 birds each, took place on Saturday, at North Olean%
Much interest was excited, and there was considerable betting,
several of the Gentlemen being on the last day within one Li.d
of each other. It came at last to a tye between Colonel STE:II
and Mr. Balms:, who shot it off at alternate shots, till decided 1•t
favour of the former. A match was afterwards shot by Mr.
HARRINGTON and Mr. CHARITY, which was won by the latter.
A second match took place between Mr. CHARITY and M.
BRIEN, which was decided in favour of the former. Con.ider-
able betting on bath matches. The Founder of the Club, a Gen-
tleman 80 years of age, made several excellent shuts. Mr. SHOV-
BRIDGE being present, challenged 31r. Ossat.ntsvolcz again, to
shoot a dozen birds, to be trapped from the sanic baskets. The
challenge was accepted, and the match was won by Mr. Snot-
BRIDGE killing eleven out of twelve birds, in a msi.terly marine:.
with a newly-invented gun, without any lock-to it; 5t04 as
Mr. S. at starting.

LICENSING BILL.

Mr. BUXTON wished to know from the Hon. and
Learned Member for Winchelsea, whether he ex-
pected to bring forward the second reading of the
Publicans License Bill that night ?
Mr. BROUGHAM begged the Hon. Member to
understand, before he answered his question, that the
Bill he alluded to had nothing to do with publicans.
It stood for that night, but he supposed the Irish af-
fairs would prevent its coming on. Before he stated
when he should postpone it to, he wished to know
whether he was to understand from the Hon. Mem-
ber's interrogatory that it was his intention to oppose
it, since he was not aware that either in principle or
detail it was in any way objectionable?
Mr. BUXTON said, that the Bill appeared to be
so objectionable, both in principle and detail, that he
should oppose it in every possible stage.
Mr. BROUGHAM said, it was therefore his wish
that it should be thoroughly discuised, and he would
endeavour to ascertain, before he left the House that
night, upon what day that could finally take place.

The Paris Papers of Tuesday have been received.
The following are estracts:

PARIS, APRIL 30.
A letter from Frankfort, of the 26th inst. states that
intelligence had been received of the arrival of the
Emperor of Russia at Minsk, where the Imperial
Guards %%ere stationed. •

Baron Pasquier has set otit for Italy on a mission.
The Brussels Oracle, of the 27th inst. says—" 'We
learn that, by virtue of orders from the French Minis-
ter of War, several detachments of troops, cavalry
and infantry, had left the garrisons of the department
of the North to proceed to Picardy, where the con-
sternation is general, in consequence of the multiplied
fires, which spread terror in that province, and which
are evidently the work of-the most atrocious malig-
nancy. It is remarkable that the French Royalists
accuse the Liberals of these excesses, while the latter
retaliate the accusation on the Anti-Constitutional
• Royalists."
Letters from Montauban (Tarn et Garonne) of the
23(11 instant, say—. 4 After a long drought, a mild
and penetrating rain. has watered the country, and re-
vived vegetation, which had languished under an ar-
dent sun. The apprehensions that had been enter-
tained respecting the harvest have been dissipated by
this fortunate change of weather, and, if no disastrous
event happens, we may hope for an abundance of the
pi incipid fruits of the earth. The meadows have
most suffered from the drought, and will produce
little hay this year ; the pulse and fruit trees had also
suffered, but appear now to promise sufficiently. It
is expected also that there will be a sufficient supply,
of wine."
London, England, 1822-05-03

NunrninF.nc, APRIL 24.

The Russian Alanifesto is not yet published, but se-
veral private letters confirm the great movements in
the Russian Army of the South, and state that the
army of Lithuania, and the Polish army, have also re-
ceived orders to hold themselves in rcadine.s to march.

the Municipality to receive the thanks of the Autho-
rities, nhich was conveyed in the following Address.
Fassaw Crrtenars—The dangers which threatened our bbeti
ties, winch you exerted yourselves so gallantly to defend, have
liappily ceased. The municipal body returns to its ordinary
duties, and you to your domestic concerns. Our country now
knows the indestructible support which it possesses in your arms
and valour. The (.'nnstitutional Junta communicates to you, in
the name of the Nation, Its willing thanks for your heroic beha•
viour. If liberty should again be endangered, you will see us again
in the midst of you. Let union, concord, love of order, and seal
to preserve the laws be henceforward your Mottoes. Long live
the Nation—live the Constitution and the Constitutional King !"
—Madrid, July 17.

The artillery which the mutiny of the Guards had
rendered necessary to be brought out, was also taken
back to the Park ; and the men necessary to do the
duty of the garrison were all that remained under
arms. After the rebellion of tke Royal Guards,- it
was natural to expect that a vigilant, if not a suspi-
cious eye should be directed for some time to the
Palace. Accordingly, we find a very singular but
qerliaps a necessary order promulgated by the Mar-
uis of SANTA Cauz, the new Major Dorno, corn-
manding the Chiefs of the Palace, under the respon-
sibility of their office, to limit the services of their
subalterns to the performance of their stated duties,
to prevent them from abusing their right of access to
the Roy al Person, by whispering political suggestions
in the Royal ear, which may compromise his MA-
Asnes well-being, and to leave to the Secretaries of
State and other Public Functionaries, the task of
ti eating with his MAJESTY on political topics. Those
Who disobey this order will not only be deprived of
their employments, but removed from the Royal
lioti:ehnlcit The militia of Aranjitez, actuated by
the same jealously of evil counsellors, addressed an
energetic representation to the KING on the 10th, re-
questing him to dismiss from his Household the cue-1
Mies of the Constitutional System. This representa-
tion was transmitted, through the Secretary of State
for the Home Department, to the Major Domo of
the Palace, who was commanded to give effect to its
recommendations.

On the 18th inst. a Gazette Extraordinary was
published at Madrid, announcing the defeat of the
Royal Carabineers of C6rdova, who, like the Guards
had revolted. The number of men taken amounts
to 450; of horses 300.

REMOVAL OF CATHOLIC DISABILITIES.

Mr. CANNING said, that he rose tb give notice
of a motion which he intended to make, and to
which he particnlarly called the attention of his Right
Hon. Friend, the Member for the University of Dub-
lin (Mr. Plunkett). It must be in the recollection of
those Gentlemen who were present at the last discus-
sion on Roman Catholic claims, that he (Mr. Canning)
said on that occasion, if the Bill then introduced
should not be attended with success, he would, on
some future occasion, move for leave to bring in a
Bill which would admit Roman Catholic Peers to
the enjoyment of their ancient privileges. He would
wish it to be understood that nothing was further
from his intention than to interfere with the merits of
the general quistion which was intrusted to the care
of his Right Hon. Friend. If he were thought
wrong in the course he was about to pursue, that
error was only•to be attributed to the anxious wish
he had to restore that part of the Roman Catholic
body, the Roman Catholic Peers, to the enjoyment
of their seats in the other House. As he understood
the general question was not: to come on at an early
day, and perhaps not at all this Session, he felt him-
self bound to redeem his former pledge, and to lose
no time in bringing the subject of his motion before
the House. He therefore moved for leave to bring!
in a Bill, on the 30th of April next, to repeal that
part of the 30th of Charles the Second which exclu-
ded Roman Catholic Peers from seats in the other
House of Parliament. He had no intention of pre-
judicing the general question ; he still held the same
opinion on that question, and whenever it came before
the House, it should receive his decided and unqua-
lified support; but, as it was not determined at what
period it would be brought forward, he thought it
right to give this notice of his. intended motion.—
Before he concluded, he felt it due to the Catholic,
Peers to state to the House, upon his honour, that he
had no communication, direct or indirect, with those
Noble Peers on the subject of the notice he had given.
Mr. I'LUNKETT begged leave to express how
highly gratified he was that any part of the question
which lie had the honour of having confided to him,
should have fallen into the hands of his Right Hon.
Friend; that part he admitted to be a very important
one of the general measure, but it gained increased
importance from the attention of his Right Hon.
,Friend. As to the general measuie, he-would be most

THE FUNDS.
STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The Market is esceediugly Sat this morning, and there is a
great gloom at present hanging over it. Consols opened this
morning at 804; but °whit to some information having arrived
this forenoon from France, which is supposed to be of an unfa-
vourable nature, the Market has declined to 79} for the Ac-
count, and 794 for Money. It is also said that the French Funds
have fallen 14 per cent. • -
FOREIGN MARKET—ROYAL EXCHANGE.
Every kind of Foreign Seeurides are very heavy this morning,
and but little business doing. This is Settling-day for the OM

being but 'few buyers this morning. We have not as yet heard
of any defaulters in that Stock.

Within the last hour the panic has been very great. Alarming
reports are circulated with respect to France, and it is said the
British holders have taken alarm, and are selling out. Very

large sales have been made by the Bull party, who have been
A compelled to sell from the scarcity of money, added to the ex-

trans are prey to the Most drew") soffeeings.—
Bands of assassins,-among whom are many Janissaries
and Asiatics, run tip and down the streets of the ca-
pital, and give themselves up to the most unheard of
atrocities. It is in vain foreign Ministers make repre•
aentations. The Divan always answers in an evasive
manner. The number of fires becomes more frequent.
On the 18th of November, the day when the war
against the Persians was proclaimed at Constantino-,
pie, the Ottoman Government received the news that
the Persians, after a bloody battle, had taken posses-
sion of Musch, and advanced by forced marches
ragaiast.Erzerum ; almost at the same time it was in-
formed that the Greeks had taken Tripolissa by as-
sault. This news roused the fury of the Turks to the
11 utmost degree. The Divan, which dreaded the effects
of this effervescence, published that the Ottoman
army had gained great successes against the Greeks,
in the Peninsula of Cassandra. It was even added,,
that Chirschid Pacha had beat the troops of Ali
Pacha. However, the truth will not be long in being
knovi,n, and then nothing will stop a furious popula-
tion, bent only on the destruction of the Christians.

Saumur, which the French Papers state to have
beeh the seat of a conspiracy against the Government,
was lately exposed to destruction by fire. The Journal
of Ike Maine and Loire says—" A conflagration, on
the cause of which opinions are not decided, has spread
consternation through the town of Saumur. It broke
out on the evening of the 18th ult. in the upper story
of the residence of M. Prroan, an eminent merchant.
Alarm soon became general, as it spread rapidly, and
assumed a most appalling aspect. The Civil and Mi-
litary Authorities, the Officers and Students of the
Military Colleges, and inhabitants of all classes, were
active in their efforts to stop the progress of the de-
you: ing element, in which they did not succeed until
midnight. Five persons perished, and four were
grievously, and, it is feared, mortally wounded on
this calamitous occasion." _
