INstIRA NCE CoNIPA NI F. 3.

The Earl of LT NI P.RICK ruse to move the second reading or a
Bill to enable the St. Patrick Assurance Company in Ireland to sue
and be sued by their Secretary.
The Earl of LAUDERDALE expressed a hope that the Nob'e
Load, in Committee on the Bill. would tdie care a capital should be
secured, in order that the Public of Ireland might be protected.
Lor REDESDA LE said the preamble of the Bin was defective.
The partners in the concern were not sufficiently described.
The LORD CHANCELLOR said, it was impossible, in many
Bills brought to that (louse, to know who the partners were before
a Bill passed; the whole of the partners supposed to stand before
Parliament might be changed. Some alteration on that subject
ought to he made. Ile should, in future, move in the Committer
on such Bills, that all individuals who appeared as partners and pro-
prietors in a Bill, should remain so for a certain time after its passing.
The Earl of LAUDERDALE said it often happened that per-
sons shifted the risk of a concern by selling their shares, and by the
time the. Bill passed a new body of proprietors wet e created.
Lord REDESDA LE stated an instance in which the Secretary
of a concern was the only person in existence as a proprietor after
the passing of the Bill.
Alter a few observations from the Marquis of DOWNSIIIRE, the
Bill was read a second time.

JUDICATURE OF SCOTLAND.

Lord COLCHESTER moved the third reading of
the Scotland Judicature Bill.

Viscount MELVILLE hoped that the Bill might be
amended at another time.

The Earl of LIVERPOOL was decidedly of opinion
that a greater boon never had been offered to the 1 eople
of Scotland, than was proposed for their acceptance in
the provisions of the present Bill. The measure had
originated in a Commission issued from the Crown, the
object of which was a full inquiry into the state of ju-
dicature in Scotland ; and that Commission was com-
posed of men the most eminent in both countries, who
had no respect to party, but who were conversant with
tie law of property, and also with the decisions of Courts
of Equity. The members of this Commission were
twenty-six in number, and had signed, not only unani-
mously, but spontaneously, that recommendation
unich proposed to carry the present 13i11 into effect.
The doors were not shut by this Bill against Wither
reforms; but he must say no measure had ever been
taken more advisedly, and it was calculated to do away
'with the greatest blot that still stained the whole system
of the Scottish law. •

The Duke of ATIIOL gave full c►edit to the Noble
Earl for intending to benefit the Northein parts of the
United Kingdom by the present Bill, but at the same
time he apprehended the measure would go to establish
an entirely new jurisdiction, and he feared that the next
Session of Parliament would not go over without their
Lordships being called upon to pass another Bill.
It would more have coincided with the feeling of the
people of Scotland, if the measure had been divided
into two Bills, thus leaving an opening to such repre-
sentations and alterations as might be suggested. All he
knew, was, that there existed a strong feeling in Scot-
land against too extended views on this subject, which
111 elect was supposed not likely to benefit that country.
No man wished more than himself to advance the local
mploVements of his native land ; but be could not,

We regret much to state that her Excellency the Countess LIEVAN,

intention to return by easy stages to London.

ROYAL MILITARY COLL,

;GE.

The Commissioners of the Royal Military College, who arrived
at the Governor's house at Sandhurst on Thursday, proceeded next
morning to hear the public examination of the young Gentlemen
of the Junior Department of the Institution in the various branches
of their collegiate studies. The business of the day commenced
by the military inspection of the Battalion of Gentlemen Cadets,
who have lately been carefully instructed in Sir Henry Torrent.'
improved course of tactic,; and the precision and celerity with
which they went through various formations and deployments of
columns, echelon moven:tut, &.c. strikingly displayed the advan-
tages of the amended system. The subsequent examinations of the
youthful students in the Mathematics, Fortification, History, Latin,
and the Modern Languages, elicited proofs of intelligence and sound
information to a very satisfactory extent; and we never felt a
stronger conviction of the value of this splendid National Institution
to the military service of the country, than from the result of our
observation on this day. The examination was attended by Gene-
ral Sir Harry Calvert, Lieutenant-General the lion. Sir Alexander
Hope (the Governor), Major-Generals Sir Willoughby Gordon
and Sir Henry Torrens (eke Quarter-Master and Adjutant-Gene-
ral),Colonel Butler (the Lieutenant-Governer), and other Members
of the Board. Lord Prudhoe, Colonel Pastry, of the Engineers,
&c. &c. were also present. Several classes of young Gentlemen
were examined, and recommendations for Commissions in the Line
were awarded to those of the number who had completed their
qualifications.
Saturday the Commissioners resumed their sitting to hear
the public examination of the Officers studying at the Senior De-
partment of the College. After inspecting the military plans and
sketches of the Officers, many of which were much admired for
their beauty and neatness of execution, Captain Ludlow Beamish,
of the 4th Dragoon Guards, was introduced to the Board, to un-
de►go his examination. The acquirements of this Officer in dif-
ferent branches of professional science, in the Mathematics, Forti-
fication, Military Surveying, &c. met with the highest approbation
of the Commissioners, and were rewarded with a certificate ex-
pressive of their satisfaction, and recommending him to the favour-
able notice of his Royal Highness the Commander-in-Chief.

By the arrival of a Lisbon Mail this morning, we hal

received Gazettes to the 20th instant. One of them
contains a republication of the Act of Amnesty issued
at Rio de Janeiro, in 1821, while the King of PORTU•
GAL had his court there, granting a pardon to all 'per-
sons fur their conduct and opinions since the year 1807.
But, perhaps, the most important article in the Lisbon
Gaulle is the official notice of the expedition fitting
out for South America. Discharged soldiers, if ofl
good character, and not more than 30 years of age, aro
allowed to re-enter the army composing the expedition

for the ultra-marine dominions.
The Lisboa Gazelle of the I6th contains accounts
from the Pernambuco Journals to the middle of March,'
confirming those previously given by the English Jour-
nals. Those of tire 18th and 19:11 are merely filled
with documents relative to the evacuation of Monte

The last letters from Rio Janeiro contain little infor-
mation, with the exception that the arrangement made
between Lord COCHRANE and the Government was,
that a certain sum should be paid in lieu of prize.
money, to be distributed among the officers and sailors
of the fleet, and the side of the captured vessels ivas not
proceeded in.

Tranquillity prevailed, and nothing new had occurred
in politici. The Theatre, which had been burnt on the
evening of the Esreynoa visiting it, hid ben ordered to
be rebuilt. Trade was much depressed.
The French Paper;7Trz,,, and the Etoile of
Wednesday have been received, but they contain ao in-
telligence of importance; the principal topic is the re-
cent change in the French Ministry, which does not
appear to have been anticipated by the Journalists, and
is of course very differently spoken of by them. The
French Ministry, since the dismissal of M. de CHA•
TEA ITBRIAND, has made a sacrifice to popularity, by
withdrawing the project of law for creating the new
crime of sacrilege, which had passed the Chamber of
Peers, and which was expected to meet with great op-
position in that of the Deputies. The discussion on the
Bill for the septenniality of the Chamber ended on
' Monday. The Reporter was to make his reply on the
following sitting.

A report prevailed in the City this morning, that Lord
COCHRANE has sailed to assist the Chilians, but it is
more likely he is gone after the Spanish ship Asia, of
64 guns, lately arrived in that quarter.

BOW-STREET.

A &swum Arrant.—Mrs. Brooks, an actress of some celebrity
among the Provincial and Minor Theatres, was brought in custody
to this office yesterday, on a serious charge of felony.
It appeared that certain articles of female apparel were stolen
from the apartments of :a person named Smith, who reside.; in a
lodging-house in Wyeh-street. He and his wife were from home ;
they left the door of their apartments locked, when they went out ;
on their return they found the door unlocked, their drawers forced
open, and the garments in question gone. These garments were
found pledged at a neighbouring pawnbroker's. in the name of
Brooks; and the pawnbroker's boy declaring that they were pledged
by" Mrs. Btooks, the actress," application was made to the 11a-
gistrates, and she was now brought forward'on suspicion having
entered the apartments by a false key, of having broken open the
drawers, and of having feloniously stolen these thin,ts.
The pawnbroker's boy produced them before the Magistrate,
and solemnly deposed that they were pledged by Mrs. Brooks. Ile
said he had known her several years, having frequently seen h.r
perform, both at the Surrey Theatre and at the Olympic ; and
having had frequent conversations with her when she came to pawn
property at a shop in the Borough—in which shop he WAS dean an
assistant. In further confirmation of his statement, be de,gribed
minutely all that she said and did when she came to his present mas-
ter's shop to pledge these stolen petticoats and things. He said,
she sung some verses of a snug to him, which song she told him she
had often sung on the stage ; and he described her pulling his hair,
and playing other huh! tricks with him, so that he was obli,;ed to
go to another r.Lrt of the ship to enter the pledger.
Mrs. Brooks, on the oiler hand, :Ls solemnly affirmed that she
had never hien in the shop, and that the whole was either a mess
uniccountabie mistake, or a gross attack upon her reputation. Her
husband, too, who is a MUtiCi3ll at the Opera House, declared Ix
should be atilt. to prove a distinct aiibi; and he pointed out the ini-
proba::iiiiy of a woman of ch.tracter who was in no want of me-
ney, king guil!). of such a heinous offence. At the same ti !le he
expressed an e..rne-t wish that the investigation might be strictly
carried on.

The pawnbroker's boy persisted most positively in his statement,
and proposed that a fellow apprentice and his master might 1w sent
fur—they having been present at the time of the pledging.
They were sett_ fur accordingly. The master was from home;
but the apprentice came, and he at once swore positively that th
tbh: •s were nut pledged by Mrs. Brooks! A long ultetcation en-
sued, and eventnally the investigation was postponed until today,
when the nuater pawnbroker is to attend ; and in the meantime
Airs. Brooks was liberated on her husbind's undertaking fur her
re-appearance.

MEETING OF POSTMASTERS.

Wednesday, a General Meeting of the Society of
Uniied Postmasters took place at the Fieemasons' Ta-
vern. Mr. EDWARD WHITE in the Chair.

From the Report it appeared, that notwithstanding
the clearness and simplicity of the new law for regu-
lating the Post-horse Duties, many attempts had been
made by the farmers of those duties, in vat ions parts of
the country, to pervert its meaning, for sinister pur-
poses ; and, in order to frustrate such attempts, it
strongly recommended the appointment of an officer,
with a permanent salary, to whom all members of the
Society might apply in cases of doubt or difficulty ;
and %%hose duty it should be to communicate with the
officers of Government upon matters which might re-
quire their interposition. This recommendation was
unanimously adopted, and the Chairman was elected
to fill the office. A great number of Postmasters at-
tended from the most distant parts of the country.
The CHAIRMAN addressed the Meeting, stating that
they owed the new Bill relating to their trade to the al-
teration in the Cabinet. Mr. Robinson having framed
the new Act for their relief, which Mr. Vansittut had
repeatedly promised. Mr. Sykes, the Solicitor of the
Stamps, had also given great assistance to the trade.
Two hundred and fifty sat down to an excellent dinner
at four o'clock ; Mr. White in the Chair. The healths
of the several Noblemen and Gentlemen who were men-
tioned in the proceedings as having assisted the Society,
were drank with enthusiasm, and a very harmonious
evening was passed.

MADRID, APRIL 11

Several Algerine corsairs, some of which arc well
armed, constantly infest the Mediterranean, and take
possession of the merchant vessels of different nations.
It is not known where they transport their prizes, which
are very numerous; for the port d'Alger, and all the
other Algerine ports, are strictly. blockaded by the
English, who do not permit any corsair to approach an
Algerine port on the coasts of this barbardus State. The
English" have not yet undertaken anything farther than
that blockade. It is confidently asserted that they .ez-
pect..a second squadron from one of .the English ports
to join Admiral Neale,-and then tolnake, without de-
lay, an attack on Algiers.—Frefich Paper.

ENGLISH Rr.SIDE\TS AT I'ARA.

By the 1-lebe,• Captain Trist, arrived at Fowey, ad-
vices. from Para (Brazil) to the 31 of March were re-
ceived yesterday. It appears that the English residents
at that place have been unexpectedly placed in a situ I-
tion of much difficulty and danger, and have been com-
pelled hastily to embark. with their goods and families,
rB e rliadoes. The following letter, addressed by
Capt. Mist to his owners, Messrs. Pinto, Urquhart, and
Co. will best explain the state of the case :

Fowey, April 18.
svvr.zus—The following document is my authority for leaving
Pan, as I did on the 3d of March, in company with all the English
inhabitants, and every person almost who had sufficient funds to get
away—some to Barbadoes, others toCayenne,Portugal, and Gibraltar :

" TO CAPTAIN TAINT.
" SlR—Having received an assurance from the Government of
this place, that it considers the lives and properties of British sub-
jects in peril, on the departure of the frigate Imperatiz and brig
Maranhao, and its refusal to guarantee their safety, I consider it
my duty to inform you thereof; and that, if you think fit to re-
main in :his port after the sailing of those vessels, being thus ap-
prised, the responsibility of such an act must devolve on yourself.
Inclosed I hand you a passport from the Government.
" I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
(Signed) " HRNRY DICKENSON, Vice-Consul.
1. Vice-Consul's Office, Para, March 2, 1824.
The English are all gone to Barbadoes in the brio Mary and
Ellen, taken by the authority of the Consul to (convey the British
subjects in Para to some port of safety. The reason of all this
arises front the evil-minded basing spread a report that the '2.7.i
rioters, who were put on board a ship in the river in Ortober last,
were suffocated by sulphur, and that the English, who took an active
part in quelling the disturbance, were the cause of their deaths, for
by them they were disarmed ; in consequence it was determined to
revenge their deaths on all the English indiscriminately.

PERPIGNAN, APRIL 10.

The arrest of Colonel Brogey, Ex-Constitutional Go-
vernor of Barcelona, who lately arrived in France, bas
furnished important information respecting the assassina-
tion of the venerable and unfortunate Bishop of Vich.
It is currently reported in Catalonia, that some French
are going to occupy Tolosa, Tarragona, and Lerida.
This news is generally received with satisfaction by some,
as a speedy pledge of their safety and of that of their
families and property ; by others, from a spirit of inte-
rest, or rather of justice, and especially in hatred of all
that is Spanish merchandise.

thetonstitutiOnalists, but even think to beard...the:Touch.
In other. parts of Spain, the most wanton outrages are
committed by these Ultra Royalists.
By accounts from Valencia of the 20th ult. we learn that it was
trial great difficulty the Royalists were prevented from forming a
mole plan there for the murder of all those of their country•
trymen whom the amnesty professed to set free. Two of these
liberated Constitutionalists were met on the 17th, on the walk at
Valencia, by eight ultra-Royalist supporters of legitimacy and
religion. The released prisoners endeavoured to avoid their per-
secutors ; but after being grossly insulted, they were attacked
with drawn swords, one butchered on the spot, the other despe-
rately wounded. Outrages the most unprovoked and varied
are wreaked upon men of the first fortune and character in Spain.
Peopl: of that class, therefore, leave the country by whole ship-
loads. So that, if the premix system should remain unaltered, Pea-
rl!, %so and the Priests will have no subjects left but the rabble,
whom they must feed or be devoured by them.

DOVER, AUGUST' 9.

His Royal highness Prince I.xoroi.t. and suite arrived atWright's
chip Hotel on Saturday evening, and yesterday morning embarked,
under a salute from the Heights, on board his Majesty's steam-
packet SPITFIRL, Captain Hasta.voN, for Calais. By return of the
packet this day, we learn that his Royal Highness had an excellent
passage of two hours and a half. On his Royal highness's landing,
be was met by the Commandant of Calais, the Mayor and Commis-
cry of Police, and was attended at Dessin's Hotel by a Guard of
Honour, whose excellent Band played " Goo save the King" on his
Royal Highness's entry. Indeed nothing was spared to evince the
disposition of the French Government to treat his Royal Highness
with every possible respect. His Royal Highness most liberally
paid the expense of a dinner for the Guard.
His Excellency Senor BERMUDEZ ZEE and suite left Wright's
Hotel this morning for Calais, by the Fury, Captain Rama. ,

POOR LAWS.

It is highly gratifying to find, from the Report of the
Select Committee on Poor-rate Returns, ordered to be
printed 15th June, 1824, that the expenditure for the
Poor continues to decrease. The whole of its amount
for England and Wales, for the year ending 25th March,
1823, was 5,772,9621. The expenditure for 1813
amounted to 6,856,1051. being at tj►e rate of l 3 shil-
lings a head of the population of 1811, while the ex-
penditure for 1822-3, amounts only to nine shillings
a head of the population of 1821. The expenditure for
1822.3 falls short of that of 1821.2 by no less a sum
than 585,7451.
The Appendix to the Report, containing extracts
from the observations of parish officers, furnishes much
matter for reflection. To those who wish to have a
correct notion of the working of the present English
Poor Law system, many of these observations will be
found extremely useful.
The sum expended on the poor in Lancashire, for the
year ending the 25th of March, 1823,-is 219,4111. This,
for a population of 1,074,000, is at the rate of four shil-
lings ahead. Sussex, again, pays 246,8271. which on its
population of 237,700, is at the rate of 11. ls. per head.
But if labour were not paid out of the Poor Rates in
Sussex, we have not the smallest doubt that the difference
between what would'in that case be paid as wages, and
what is now paid as wages, would actually exceed this'
sum of 246,8271. The fact is, that in Sussex, as in all
the other counties similarly circumstanced, the unmar-
ried men pay for the families of those who are married,
and those who work pay for the unemployed. The
farmer, from the market of labour being glutted, has
the labourers on his own terms, and takes care that on
the whole he shall not pay more in wages and poors'
rates together than he would pay under other circum-
stances for the former alone.

At the opening of the Carlow Assizes, on Thursday
last, Lord NORBURT, in addressing the Grand Jury, told
them that he had now been in the habit of addressing
them for forty years, and he could this time congratu-
late them upon the heaviest crops and lightest calenAr
they ever bad had during that time.
