reasons when the motion should be made fut ift
doction.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL moved the third mat
ing of the Irish Arms bill.
Lord HOLLAND observed, that he did not mean
to press his objections vet y strongly to this Bill; but
he wished to call the attention of the House to the
consequences of passing such unconstitutional mea-
sures. This Bill, which was one of the greatest im-
portance, had been suffered to pass the other House
almost without notice, from its being a renewal of a
Cornier measure of the same nature. This shewed
how Sa•ttious they ought to be in giving their sanc-
tion to Bills of chit kind. It had not been thought
necessary to extend the suspension of the Habeas
Corpus Act to Ireland I but, however, he•conctived
that the Ministers were pledged, even by the passing
of this Bill, to exert themselves the more strenuously
to introduce such an effective system of Civil Police
as would render the passing of such Bills umteees•
sary. To that be trusted the Peace Preservation Bill,
which had been introduced slung with this, would
powerfully contribute.

Ttie E-iel of LIVER POOL.—It was true that
the Suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act had not
been extended to Ireland, becerse the ground of the
disturbed state of Ireland was not disaffection to the
Government. Ireland, however, required remedial
measures, but measures of a different nature trout'
that of the buspensiftn of the Habeas Corpus Acr.—
The Government of this country, and that of Ireland,
had been endeavrauriog.to iorm a strong and effective
,systim of Civil Palm in order to render the passing
of such Bills as this unnecessary. From the stated
the Irish population they had,. however, experienced
%neat difficulty in their progress towards the accom-
plishment of this desirable object. The difficulties,
however, had greatly diminished, and were daily di-
, miniihing. Until, however, such a system could be
matured, a measure of this kind was necessary.
The E 4 of DARNLEY • said, he would not
oppose the Bill under the present circumstances of
Ireland. The Bill was then read a thitd time, and
passed....-Adjourned till Thursday.

VIIINNA, APRIL 4.
1.; According to letters from Constantinople, the Tots
lilt army is going to be put on ,the war establish.
ment, and great activity prevails in the military pre-
parations and armaments. If these accnerrs should
be confirmed, there will remain no doubt of the ob-
ject of these dispositions. 'Fite Russian army is not
yet put on the peace establishment ; and, according
to the last accounts, considerable levies are making in
Poland. These circumstances seem to indicate a mis-
understanding between Russia and the Sublime Porto,
which it would not be easy to adjust, it the Porte
does net resolve on some sacrifice. It is well known
that in ISIS. Russia, in order to be able to employ
all its military force' without division against the
French armies, was obliged to conclude a disadvan.
tageous peace with Turkey; the result of which was
•the sacrifice of the fruits of several years' expensive
war, and it res•ored above 4i;00 square leagues of
conquered country. It is difficult to believe that Rus.
sia will acquiesce, during peate,-in conditions ex-
torted from it by the force of imperious circumvtanci-s,
and the more as it has renewed its alliances with all the
•Europe.in Powers, or is on fri:ndly terms a ith them.
England and France are equally unable to do any
thing for the 'l'urks, and Austria and Prussia interest
themselves too little in the existence of this barbarous
Power to quarrel with Russia nn that account. We
may, then, see the period approach when the ancient
Greek empire, which has become a depart under the
oppression of Oriental despotism, would return tinder
'the dowini in of a Christian Power. Whatever may
be said, the existence of the Ottoman Power in Es-
rope is a monument of the narrow policy of the Et.
ropean Powers in former times. It is an outrage to
Christianity, and to the laws of nations introduced
into the civilized world. It is the dutrof Christian
Princes to extend the empire of truth, knowledge, and
justice. How can they suffer a Power to exist in the
midst of them which despises the law of nations—im-
poses on millieus-of wretches the iron'yoke of despo-
tism—and which considers the Christians as its na.
torsi enemies l—a State which encourages and pro-
tects pirates, whose wealiness converts its Provinces
into theatres of bloodshed,--whore civil war exercises
all its horrors—a State which affords its•subjects no
sr curity for their persons or property ; and which, in
fine, cannot be any longer protected by. Christian
Powers. Let it bt sbanduned to its late, and millions of
wretches will be delivered from the chains of tyranny.

THMIDER 5T9i1.1.--On Tuesday forenoon a dread.
ful gurus of thunder and lightning passed over &fig-
hts/0, from the Westward, accompanied with tor-
rents of rain and bail. For a short time it was so dark
that candles were used in various places. The swam
lasted about an hour. The lightning struck several
buildings, but occasioned no serious damage. A girl
sitting near a window was so much affected on one
side of her face, that it is feared she will lose the
sight of her eyet. A young man, a marine belong-
ing to the Ramilies lag-ship,owas struck down on the
road to Portobello, and deprived of his speech and
sight, .and the power of one side. He was taken
to the Royal In6rmary, and has since recovered his
speech and the sight of one eye; but remains without
the faculty of his left arm, side, cad kg. Shortly
after twelve the atmosphere cleated up, when the
surrounding heights appeared white with the hail-
stones, which were usesaually large. The storm re-
commenced about roue in the aiternoon, but Was
osiabet so iriefent user of so ling duration.

PENZANCE, JUNE 14.
, We had yesterday the severest gale ever rercern-
•bered at this time of the 'year. It began abut three
o'cloelc in the morning, and continued all day from
S S.W. to S.S.E. In the evening. it shifted to N.W.
During the gale several of our mackerel fishing boats
were seen renning for the harbour, and several were
ne

or!? swamped, being almost half full of water, in
actiddinginfine the wind. Twin, more unfortunate,
were seen to fill and in down, with. all their crews.
Seven poor fellows in each boat f.und a watery grave.
They have left thirty-seven orphan children to lament
their lon. Thete are still two boats missing, which,
it is hoped, may have fetched:Plymouth or some wart
to the Eastward.—The Hope, SIMON, of and from
Jersey, parted in Guavas-lake, and ran for the pier.—
The Ann, Byer, from Lnoe for Baty, in running for
the pier, tell to leeward on the rocks; but with the
assistance of a hawser from the tipstin on the pier-
head, she was gut in with little '44Mase.

COVANT-GARDEN 7 MAME.

Mr. Krum.' last night performed -the character
of the Stranser with all his wonted success The
concluding scene, both on the part of Mr. Kuo.a
and of Miss O'Nent., was one of the most happy
efforts we have ever witnessed. The countenance of
the former, ever changing from tenderness to seventy,
and again from severity to tenderness, was fi►ely con-
trasted with the yielding attitude of the latter. Miss
O'Nw.c seemed indeed to surpass all her former ex-
ertions in this favourite character. When the curtain
dr \pped there were three distinct peals of applause.

FRENCH PAPERS.

The Paris Papers of tuesday arrived this Mor-
ning ; but besides the article of. intelligettee respec-
ting the Conspiracy in Catalonia, which we have
given in another part of our Paper, they contain little
else that is of particular interest.
A communication from Berlin, inserted in these
Papers, states, that the great majority of intelligent
pet sons in Prussia, is decidedly in favour of the new ,
Institutions which the KIND has successively formed
for the government of the monarchy ; but that there
is still a considerable opposition party, composed of
very heterogeneous elements. It is an opposition, it
is said, composed of mystics, who wish to establish a
theocracy, and to dispense with any constitution of
organized laws—of Ultra-Germans, who cry up every
where the re-establishment of the ancient patriarchal
state of Germany, such as it existed in the time of
HERMANN, and of the Wars of the People of Ger-
many with the Romans—of Ultra Royalists, who
declaim against the establishmenkof a Representative
Constitution, and desire a Government altogether
absolute—and, lastly. of professed Athlocrezes, who
see no safety but in the complete re establishment of
the prerogatives and privileges of Nobility—their
exemption from all public charges, and monopoly
of all the superior functions of the State.
Happily, it is added, all these adversaries of the
Government. were they even united for one moment
in their views. would form but a very weak minority
against the number of those who heart and soul are
devoted to the KING, and the wisdom of the plans.
which his MAJESTY proposes to put into execution.
The Elector of HESSE has, it appears, made an
amicable settlement of the private dispute which has
lately excited so much sensation in the Germanic
Diet, respecting the purchase of certain National
Domains under the Ex,Westphalian Government:
but his Highness has got involved in a new cause of
trouble, by an aggression on the part of one of his
neighbours. which seems to require explanation.—
The Grand Doke of NASSAU has taken formal pos-
session of a district called Schlaugenbad, which in
virtue of an act of cession of the County of Irhatzuel-
lenbogen by Hesse, bad been expressly reserved by
the latter. This step of the GRAND DUES'S is said
to have caused much inquietude.

THE DEATH-BCD WATCH.

, The dreadful presence of this awful visitant is thus finely depic-
lured tn The lioust of Afolmsior, a Poem, by JOYN
occasioned by the lon of a beloved and only child :

At !art it came—and something told its coming!
A, midnight drew, we heard, or felt a bumming,
A;•if on muffled wheel 3 approached* Power
l hat could diem::;• our and blot the hour!
e knew a fatal Pres‘nce in the room,
And knew that it Was conic to take our boy;
From skok‘vy wings there seent'd to spread a glom
To make uxi,.!c/ICC rant, and .mother joy;
freesing histinct told us Death was near;
Our hearts shriek'd inwardly in mortal fear;
Yet we were nude—and on the stlfferteis bed
We threw ourselves, and held his breathing bead;
Held him, as one that drown holds to the sand,
That crumbles as be clings—and fails about his haat
The death of the child is also beautifully pad.etic—
Ir shook him but a ilttl,—'twas soon o'er— •
He made one effort, and he rrta.le no mom
.ite rippled as it left the shore it knew
And the surge rongheu'd as the wets withdrew t
We saw him struggle—and we still loord age
We saw him settle—and our child was genet

PUBLIC DISTIIISL

Mr. LYTTELTON rose to present a Petition
from Levinford in Stourbildge, in the County of
Worcester, complaining of the enormous amount of
the Poors' Rates, and praying for relict. Eighteen bun.
tired persons sere supported by these rates out of a
populrtion of 4,000 ; and the whole burden was
supported by 148 persons, out of whom 140 had
signed the petition. On houses did proliortion of the
rate was `295.; on lands near the town it warris.6d.;
while on others it amounted to the alarming and al•
most incredible sum of SS Is. Ml.—(Xear. hear,

sequence beat wilted, and others were obliged to
quit theft farms.—The Petition was then read and
ordered to lie on the table.

THE FUNDS.

The moment the Stock Exchange was orned
this morning. business commenced, and the film
price of Consols was 76. went to 761 f, and is sill
looking or. An advance of 4j has taken place in the
Four per Cents. since Monday. and 31 in Cunsu!s.

List night, in the House of Commons, the CHAN-
cal.i.on of the EICUEQUiIt brought forward his Bud-
get. From the gen: rah state of the Country it was
to he esp:cted that there would be a deficiency ; and
all things considered, no person can be surprised that
ten or twelve millions should be wanted for the set.-
vices of the cumin year. The Supplies required
amount to 22 Mill ens—the Ways and Means to PI
Milhous ; the d !Terence is 121 Millions; but the Mi-
nister proposes to avoid a loan, and to meet the Pub-
lic Sersicessby an issue of about Nine Millions of Ls•
chequer Bilis, which will answer all demands at least
till January or February next, when. Parliament will
♦gain be sitting.

We are contlient the CitaXont.oft of the EX:IM
tesultition to avoid a loan will receive ge-
neral approhatioo. It will save a considerable Sum
to the cianitr).
The ltepart of the Secret Committre of Commons
on the disturbed state of the cuuotry was presented
last tlight. I, is in substance sitnilar to that of die
Louis' Committee, and conclude, with a similar re-
commendation. Some of the Islembcrs were of
nion that the statements in the Report exaggerate the
facts. We think it indisputable that in some dis-
tricts thete has been manifested a very alarming
position to acts of riot and insubordination ; but the
lt.Tort does justice to the loyalty and good disposition
of the great body of the people nut only throughout
the kingdom geLerally, but even on the borders of
Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire. The leading ques-
lion, therefore, for discussion, will be—whether the
dangers to which the loyal end orderly are exposed
by the machinatims of the tut bulent in particular
districts, be such as to require that the rights of-all
should be suspended? It is self•evideot, that in a case
of general danger, Ministers would be unworthy of
their situations should they hesitate, even on their
Own responsibility, to adopt strong measures fur thel
public safety ; nor can we doubt that they %vivid. in
tha judicious exercise of such power, receive the
thanks of the community r. but this is very different
from a suspension of the rights of the people of dis-
tricts confessed to be. quiet and orderly ; for this is to
punish the innocent instead of the guilty. However,
we doubt not that the question will be fully canvas-
sed before the House COW to any final resolution on
the subject.

The singular case of the trial of a person in Scot.
land three time: for the same offence (for singular it
must appear to every man born or living under the
laws of England), was last night alluded to in the
House of Commons. From what passed, it appears
that a man in Scotland may be tried not only thrice
but Arm hundred time: for the same offence!! We
can only repeat, what we stated some time age, that
it is surely high time that the law should be amended
on this point.

FEES.

Sir C. BL'RRELL sdid, the House some time
ago came to a Resolution to grant a compensation so
the servants of the Royal Household, in lieu of pre.
seats and fees t notwithstamling which, l►e under-
stood several Noblemen and Gentlemen had beet
applied to for fees as usual. He wished to know,
from the Chancellor of the Exchequer if the case was
really so ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
said, he had heard also of applications, similar to
those mentioned by the Honourable Baronet, but he
had reason to believe they had not been made by any
one belonging to the Royal :Household, but by
strangers, imposing on the credulity of the public;
who at present had escaped detection.
