SITTING OF THE CORTES OF THE 10TH APRIL.

Senor ALvcs Do Rio, in consequence of many
complaints which he said he bad received from many
Provinces, moved—" That the itegency should be
authorised to remove• and displace the Magistrates,
who were doing immense injury to the people of the.
Provinces, without attention to the determination of

the Sovereign Congress, it being indispensable that
these precautions should be taken to consolidate the
Constitutional System which the people so highly
approved, and that it should name, to fill those offi-

ces, persons in whom it placed entire confidence."
Senor OZORIO said, that the Desembargo do Paco
(Privy Council) should exactly observe the laws re-
specting the complaints
o against Magistrates, and that
such vexations would be avoided.
Senor B. CARREIRA contended that this was use-

less, and thought that full power should be given to
the Regency to displace and punish all those Magis-
trates who did not zealously support the determina-
tions of the Congress, and who harassed the People.
Other Members supported this opinion, stating that
they had received similar accounts.
Signor CASTELLO BRANCO observed, that the evils
which the people suffered were great: that these did
Dot proceed from the laws, but from the bad dispositions
of the Magistrate, ; that complaints were daily made
against diem; and that for this reason, and because
the evils were extraordinary, extraordinary remedies
were required ; that the circumstances authorised the
adoption of such precautions ; that Rome, in times
of great danger,. created a Dictator ; and that we,
though not in great danger, were, however, in a situ-
ation that absolutely required the power of the Exe-
cutive to be extended, though it were but for a time,
to provide against the evils which they were consi-
dering ; and, lastly, that though the general will of
the nation was the saute, and most sincere, yet they
ought to counteract the intrigues of the ill-intentioned.
After some further discussion, the Committee of
Legislation was ordered to draw up a proposition for
this purpose by the following day.
Senor XatillF4 Siourauto ob4crved, that slobs
London, England, 1821-05-01

annnations were most extravagant. Retired Clerks
had £5OO or £6OO a-year, when many General Offi-
cers had no more than ten or eleven shillings a day.
Besides, most of these allowances were granted in
defiance of an Act of Parliament. He concluded by
moving to deduct £201.8 from the proposed sum.
Lord PALMERSTON said, the Act did not ap-
ply to the Offices -in question ; because here the Of-
fices were abiolutely abolished ; and it was thought
just to allow the retired Officers son-erhing more
than the sum allowed to persons retiring from OBlces
which were to be filled up by other persons. •
Colonel DAVIES contended that meritcrious,Offi.
Icers wet e left to starve, while enormous sums were
paid to persons who had no claims whatever.
Mr. HUME conceived it would be impo.sihle to
go into all the details, in reference to this Re.oluticm,
at so late an hour of the night ; and should therefore
move, as an Amendment—" That the Chairman do
report progress, and ask leave to sit again."
Lord PALMERSTON said, he should agree to
the Amendment ; but with the understanding that
the Resolutions, as far as they had hitherto gone,
should be reported to the House to-morrow.
A short conversation then took place between Mr. J. Slum,
Lord PALMERSTON, Mr. BENNETT, and Sir ROSIEST WILSON, on
the subject of Superannuation Allowances; after which the
Chairman repotted progress, and obtained leave to it agaiti.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER obtained
leave to bring in a Bill for more effectually carrying into execu-
tion the Acts relative to the Building of New Churches.
Mr. HUME gave notice of a motion for to-morrow relative
to the establishment and expense of the Royal Marines.
The House adjourned at One o'Clekk.

PORTSMOUTH, SEPTEMBER :?.

The GLASGOW frigate, Honourable Captain DUN-

Cuxhaven, is just come in. The GLASGOW will in-
stantly refit for Ceylon. Sir EDWARD' PAGeD and
family have been waiting for some time at Cowes, to
embark in the GLASGOW.
We are anxiously looking for the arrival of his
MAJESTY, who is expected in a day or two. His MA-
JESTY having honoured this port as the rendezvous
of the Royal squadron, the attraction has been very
great; at no period do we recollect to have seen so
many 1 families as at present inhabit the dif-
ferent genteel fimilies as at present inhabit the dii-
ferent lodging-houses on those delightful terraces
that surround the garrisons.
The numerous and interesting sights that abound
in this neighbourhood have caused the Ex-Queen of
PERU to sojourn here a few days ere she goes to
London.
Lady COCHRANE is much indisposed at the George
Hotel. Her Ladyship was about to proceed to Lon-
don, but was suddenly taken ill.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, .SEPT. 1.

Henry sedgwick, an insolvent, was o 'posed ointli!.
grounds of malicious injury, and for h tying put ,
Healey, one of the creditors, to great expense in re-
covering damages obtained in an
acii in for an
sault. It was proved that the action was first com-
menced in the Palace Court ;it was then removed,
and a writ of error was brought, which cost the cre:
ditor £l6. The insolvent declared, previous to going
to prison, that rather than Mr. Haley should have
a farthing of what he owed him, he would lie and
rot in jail. This he declared, although Messrs. Par-
kins and Co. would have settled the matter for him.
The insolvent was directed to be imprisoned six
months from the date of filing his Petition.
Jokn Armitage, a very respectable-looking ma“,
was opposed by Counsel on behalf of Lord Hare,
wood, and Mr. J. Parker. The insolvent had ear=
ried on the business of a butcher in London, at Ifuli;
at Leeds, and other places, and had inc'trred debts to
the amount of between £7OO and ES(X). About
three weeks before he went to prison, the insolvent
bought cattle of the two present opposing crlitorst
and the ground of the opposition was, that he had
incurred ddats which lie had no visible means of
paying. It appeared, however, that the insolvent
had been in a very large line of business; that he
used to take sometimes £5O a week, and that lie had
€750 of debts on his books. Under these circuni.
stances the Court ordered his discharge.
Marks Minicr, a billiard-table keeper, was op.
posed on the ground of defrauding his creditors, by
selling his goods just before his failure is business.
The case had been adjourned in order that the auc-
tioneer arid the person who purchased the property
might be brought up and examined. It mu- ap.
peared that the goods belonging to the insolvent were
sold at an extremely low rate just before lie went to
prison, and thus were the creditors defrauded.

An instance of sterling honesty was displayed at
Edinburgh, on Monday se'nnight. A Lady and
Gentleman, who had been out at dinner on the Sun-
day, sent for a hackney-coach to toke them home.
At night the Lady missed a £3 note from her purse;
and recollecting that she had taken a piece of money
from it to pay a chairman who had gone for the
coach, she immediately concluded that the note had
been then pulled out, and blown off by the wind.
On Monday morning, however, the Lady was waited
upon by the coachman, with the missing note, which
he had found on the seat of the coach. He was
berally rewarded by the Lady.
Monday, as a Blackheath and Greenwich stage
Was swiftly driving along Parliament-street, the axle.
tree broke, in consequence of which the coach com•
pletely overturned, and several of the passengers were
materially hurt.

APPEAL TO THE. FRIENDS OF RELIGION
AND MORALS,

bt4talfof the lIIGIILA ND POPULATION of PRINCE
EDWARD'S ISLAND, in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, Bsi-
tish America.
A MINISTER of the GOSPEL, regularly educated
-R- at a Scottish University, of the most accurate sentiments
and unblemished life, is very desirous of emigrating to Prince
Edward's Island, in compliance with the repeated solicitation
of the destitute People there, that he may spend his days in
Preaching (in Gaelic) to his Countrymen the blessed Gospel.—
lie is unable to carry out his Family, which is numerous, with-
out assistance; and most humbly submits his case to the piety,
zeal, and liberality, of the Friends of Truth, and of a body of
men whose sober habits, valour, and subordination to legitimate
Government, give them a high claim on the best aff,:etions of
the human heart.

The most satisfactory attestations mil be given, and benefac-
tions received, by the Rev. Dr. ?tianticl, No. 7, Duncan Ter-
race, City-road ; the Rev. Mr. liroadfoot, 64, Stafford-place,
Pimlico; and the Rev. Dr. Waugh, 2, Salisbury-plate, New-
road, Mary-la-bonne.

THE MAID AND TDB MAGPIE

A noble Lady of Florence, who resided in a house
which still stands opposite the lofty Doric column
which was laiseJ to commemorate the defeat of
Piet:o Strozzi, and the taking of Sienna, by the g-
ranitic coaqueror of both, Cosmo the First, lost a
valuable pearl necklace, and one of her waiting-
women (a very young girl) was accused of the thefts
Having solemnly denied the fact, she was put to tor-
ture, which was then given a plaisir at Florence.-.
linable to support its terrible infliction, she acknow-
ledged that " she was guilty," and without further
trial was hung. Shortly after Florence was visited
by a tremendous storm; a thunderbolt fell on the
figure of Justice, and split the scales, one of which
fell to the earth, and with it tell the ruins of a mag-
pie's nest, containing the pearl necklace ! These
scales are still the haunt of birds, and I never saw
them hovering round them, without thinking of
those good old times," when innocent women could
be first tortured, and then hung on suspicion.

INNOVATION.

Her Nlajesty the Queen of Sardinia i s so hostile td
everything that looks like innovation upon that social
order established by the House of Hapsburg, that
even vaccination has not, it is said, escaped her Royal
censure. On hearing that the Governor's balls were
over at two in the morning, she expressed her surprise
at hours so revolutionarily early; and observed, that
it was the efFect of vaccination, which left the young,
people feeble, and unable to bear fatigue!

LAMB V. DLIFTLIN.

Mr. BROUGHAM said, the plaintiff was a most re-
spectable yeoman, at Emar-bridge, and, besides cul-
tivating his own ground, he was a butcher at Pen-
rith. 'I he defendant was a wealthy yeoman also. The
charge was most malicious and groundless, for no
justification was entered on the record.

John Lamb.—l am the son of the plaintiff. I saw
the defendant at market on the 20th of February. He
is a salesman. He came and asked my father, " Have
you got two sheep of mine in your field:" My fa-
ther said, they were not in yesterday. Dufton said
he had had them for a long time, and set his mark
upon them. Ile told my father he would take them
ass ay. My father said he would bring an action
against him if he took them away without my father
seeing whether they were his or not : if he would
come next morning, he might have them if they
were his ; he wanted nothing but his own. The field
was a mile from Penrith. I told him next morning
they were not ours. He said, " You have gone too
far : now I am in the prosecution bond, and you must
take the consequence." I told him we did not mark
the sheep. He said, 44 D—n you, 1 must have you
in another country." Damn came again to my fa-
ther's stall, and said, 64 What are you going to do
about them sheep ?" I said they weie not ours, and
we had nothing to do with them. Ile said, " You
are a set of sheep-stealers." My father said, 44 Do
you call me a sheep-thief?" He said, " Yes; it is
not the first time." As he was going out of the sham-
bles be said, " You are a set of sheep-stealers." Ile
said he would acquaint Mr. Pearson with it. Mr.
Pearson is clerk to the Association for Prosecuting
Felons. They were black-faced sheep. They had
not been in the field on the 18th. My father is seventy.
He has land of his own, and he farms some land.—
They came into the field again.
Cross-examined by Mr. SCARLETT.—He was a very
great blackguard, and I pushed him away; and then
my father came, and he called him a sheep-thief.—
He (Dutton) had a sere lip, and it began bleeding.
A deal of people believed it, that my father was a
sheep-thief. I have not been to measure Mr. I)uf-

a wager, from that town to Fermuy, in a Dungarvon oyster-
tub, drawn by a pig, a badger, two cats, a goose, and a hedge-

merely used a common sowielder's horn and a pig-driver's
whip. Mr. HUDDT is In his 97th year.—This exploit assembled
a numerous concourse of spectators, and is the theme of con-
