IRISH INLAND NAVIGATION.

Upon the motion of Sir ARTHUR WEI.LESLEY, the Hon*
went into a Committee upon the 41st Act of his present Majesty,
relatirg to the inl.tnd Navigation of Ireland.
Sir A. WEI .1, ESLEY, after having stated the grant of .500,0001.
made b Parliament in the last Session, fo: the purpose of car-
rying on the inland navigation of Ireland, having explained
in a full and perspictr.ws manner the arrange..-..one made tot the
better administration of the funds for that purpose, by establish-
ing a Board of Commissioners, and other °Dicers necessary, al-
lowing them salaries, cer.cluded by moving for leave to bring in-
a Bill for the further ativaucement of the Wield navigation in the
sister country.
Sir J. NEWPORT wassnetfectly willing, he said, to agree with
the Right Hon. Oentleman as to the utility of advancing so impor.
tant a work ; but he could not concur with bins in placing it
under the direction of a Board constituted as the present one was.
There was no necessity found for such interference in the Caledo-
nian Canals; he could therefore sefa no reason why such a measure
should be considered necessary in Ireland.
Sir A. WELLESLEY and Lord CASTLEREAGH spoke far-
ther in support of the motion.
Sir J. NEWPORT and Mr. PARNELL offered fresh observa•
tiona upon it.
A tedious discussicn ensued, in which Mr. FOSTER, Mr.
WINDHAM, and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
severally spoke.
The question was called for,and strangers ordered to withdraw,
A division took place or the motion,
For it ti—Against it 12--Majority O9
Upon the re.admittance of strangers, Lord TEMPLE r aid .'tat
he would not carry his motion, which stood for this day. t.tr-
titer, as the papers for which he moved were laid bet' •: • •1.- ~:her
House. I'he Noble Lord concluded by moving a... •e., t,, hie
Majesty, for other papers, relating to the opere n :Thou,
which was ordered.
Upon the motion of the CHANCELLOR of • CI If:-
QUER, the Hoase went into a Committee upon the propriety of
consolidating the duties on Customs, Sce.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stated the na. dre
of the Bill which he was desirous of brineng in, and which (in
addition to the consolidation) would go to a certain extension of
the duties on Brimstone, Turkey Carpets, Precious Stones, &e.
amounting in the whole to an increase of 5e2.20,000 in the revenue.
Mr. WHITBREAD reserved to himself, and to every other
Member, the right of objecting in future to any part of this pro-
position, which might appear to him inexpedient. After which a
resolution was agreed tu, that the several duties now existing ILO
cease and determine.
The House having been resumed, the repOrt was ordered to bet
received to-morrow. . _

The lunkeepers' Rate of Allowance Bill went through a Com.
mittee, the Report of which was ordered to be received to-

CAPTAIN SANDEN.

On the Motion of Mr. FANE, Captain Sandell was called to
the Bar, and addressed by the Seen Kea in the most Impressive
manner, and nearly in the following terms:—
" Captain Huxley Sanden, this House having entered on a so-
lemn inquiry of the utmost importance to the due administration
of the Army, and of the deepest personal concern with respect to
the honour of the Illustrious Commander in Chief, you were call-
ed upon to give evidence on the matters in issue ; and in the course
of your evidence were by this House adjudged to be guilty of
gross prevarication. This offence, at all times destructive of the
just authority and privileges of this House, and subversive of the
common sanctions of civil society, was in your case peculiarly ag.
gravated by your military character and profession—a character
of which truth and honour ought ever to be the inseparable com-
panions. It is your reproach to have fallen from this high emi-
nence, and to have closed a long career of corrupt practices, by
incurring the most ignominious sentence which the justice of this
:. Hon. can inflict. Nevertheless, the House, taking into censi-•
deritton lout expressions of shame and soivow for your miscon.
duct, and having compassion on the briAen state of health under
whiz!' it is alled:,:ed you are suffering, has consented to put an
end to your imprisonment. It has therefore ordered you to be
discharged, and you are discharged accordingly, paying your fees."
The 6PEAKER's reprimand was ordered to be inserted in the
Journals.

TO THE EDIVIIK OF THE STAR.

Sot—lgiednk it may be of some importance to in-1
form the public, that by a late decision in the Court
of King% Bench, which confirms a former one given
by Sir W. SCOTT, it is now determined that a bastard
is within the provisions of the Marriage Act, and can
only be legally married by banns for want of a father,
who, in the contemplation of the law, is capable of
giving consent to such a person being married by li-
cence. This has now been settled by a decision of the
Court of King's Bench, in whch three Judges agreed
to this doctrine, and one only, Mr. Justice GROSE, dis-
sented. By this determination, in the case of Piestly
v. Hughes, a devisee is deprived of the estate intended
for him, and a whole family has been suddenly bastar-
dized, and rendered incapable of inheriting. Toprevent
the recurrence of such a calamity through ignorance,
shall be glad if you will insert this by way of notice to
those who, like myself, can only boast the proud digni-
ty of nature.—Your's, NoTurs.

The Compiler of the above Tables having often had occasion
to calculate the Value of Land, found that all former publications
of this kind obliged the person using them to set down too many
figures ba order to find the amount; hence he was induced to con-
struct these Tables for his own use, and finding them, upon trial,
particularly serviceable, he now offers them to the public.
No former publication of this sort cnahles the person using it
to find the amount by fewer figures than are stated in these tables.

The arrangement for a new Cabinet are not pet
finished, nor can they till Lords GRENVILLE and GREY
shall have arrived in London, in compliance with the
message sent to them by command of his MAJESTY?
The statements which appear in some papers, of
who are to remain in office, and who are to be ad-
mitted, have no foundation whatever. They serve
merely to express the desire of certain individuals,
but will have no influence on-the arrangement.
It is hardly possible that either of the Noblemen

Every Schoolmaster and Governess will hail the appearance of
a Work which has brought the English Language within an at-
tainable compass, by expunging what was improper, useless, or
redundant in the Dictionary of Entick. The Language has, by
this mean, been reduced from Sixty Thousand to little more than
Ten Thousand Words, and the whole may consequently be
committed to memory in less than threw years. For the conve-
nience of the Tutor and Pupil, every word has been divided and
accentuated; and this Dictionary, for the purpose of Teachers,
possesses in consequence a manifest superiority over every other.

This action was to recover a balance on an account
of £l7 2s. and was undefended. The plaintiff,
constrained to prove his case, had been under the ne-
cessity of calling witnesses from different parts `of
Kent, Norfolk, and Somersetshire. The defendant
had been a Collecting Clerk, and the several wit-
nesses proved small balances, which, in the gross,
amounted to the sum laid in the declaration.
Lord EL LENBOROUGII—" This is a most destructive

JULY 10.-SHUTTLEWORTH V. CiOLDIE.

This was an action for breach of covenant between
two medical men of Liverpool. In 1802 the parties
had agreed to dissolve a partnership that had subsis-
ted between them, the plaintiff paying to the defen-
dant 3001. a year, for the remainder of the term of
th.it partnership, and the defendant covenanting not
to practise as a surgeon and apothecary in Liverpool
for that time.
It was proved that the defendant, since the cove-
nant, had attended three labours, in one of which he
refused to continue his attendance and to take a fee,
on account of his covenant with the plaintiff ; in ano-
ther of which he delivered the lady, and afterwards
gave a blister to her son, sending in his bill at Christ-
mas, as usual, to the amount of 101. which he re-
ceived, and in the third of which he delivered the
lady, attending her both before and afterwards, and
prescribing medicines, which the witness, who spoke,
to this instance, believed were made up by the plain.
tiff. This witness coed not say whether any thing
was paid for the defendant's attendance.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL, for the defendant, con-
demned the action as the most infamous he had ever
met with'; the defendant having had occasion to sue
the plaintiff for his 3001. a year, and the plaintiff
bringing this action in London, seven years after the
cause of it, ont of mere revenge.
Lord ELLENBOROUGH told the Jury, that the cove-
nant naming only the professions of surgeon and
apothecary, it was for their consideration, whether
midwifery was included ; and in case they should be
of opinion that it was not, then the only point was the
blister which the defendant had prescribed, and which
must be taken to have been charged in the bill of
101. the defendant's charge for a labour being proved
to be only 31. 3s.
The Jury retired for about an hour, and then
brought in a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages one
farthing.
Mr. ATTORNEY GENERAL—"" Would your Lord-
ship have the goodness, under the Statute of Eliza-
beth, to certify this as a verdict under 40s. with a
view of spewing the action to be frivolous ?"
Lord ELLENISOROUGII—" The Act of Parliament
does not require me to do it immediately ; and I will
consider of it."

LYON V. SMITH.

This was an action brought by the widow of one
Lyon, late a wheelwright, in a small town in the
county of Surrey, to recover 2591. 14s. from two of
leer late husband's nephews.
He had let them have it to assist them in business,
and all she wanted was, the interest of it during her
life, as Ate would willingly give the young men secu-
rity that after her death it should be wholly theirs.
The Court then granted a rule that the defendants
should pay the interest at five per cent. and that no
execution could be taken out against them for the
principal, so long as they continued to pay the interest.
