RELIEF OF THE POOR.

The House having resolved itself into a Committee
to consider of an issue of Eichequer fur the re-
lief of the Poor,

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
ruse and kiid, that betore he proceeded to explain the
purpose of the proposition which he had to sutnnit to
the Committee, be should read the two Rtsolotions
in which that proposition was comprised. 'I first
Resolution was—" That his 'Mak sty be enahl.:J to
issue Exchequer Bills not exceeding 5e1,500,0i,0, to
be distributed in Loans, by Commissioners appointed
by Parliament, for the Employment of the Poor of
Great Britain in Public Works, and the Relief of
Manufactures, on condition of security for repa;.-
ment." In the next Resolution, which related
Ireland, there was a difference as to form, both be-
cause there existed no parochial funds in that coun-
try, and on account of anothercircumstance, which
he should afterwards explain. This ResolutiOn.wac;
" That the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland be empowered
to advance, out of the Consolidated Fund of that
kingdom, a sum not exceeding £250,000, •for ,the
completion of Public Works, or the encouragement
of Fisheries, in Ireland, under condition of repayment
in a time to be limited."—Oa every former occasion
when grants had been proposed to Parliament for any
local purpose, a Special Committee had been pre-
viously appointed, for the purpose of ascertaining the
distress, and submitting to the House a specific plan for
its relief. In the present case that course of proceed-
ing was unnecessary, both from the notoriety of the
general distress, and the information received limo
Committees, by whom, in various shapes, accounts :
that distress had been received. As .to t!;, sows
which it 'was prriposed to apply to public works, t'..
grounds on wide') the grant would be recrii.mendr...
would differ from those on which Parliament ha.;
formerly • been applied to fa- assistance in birplAr
cases. The course in hornier instances bad been to
point out the benefits to the country in its cominei
relations,• from the completion of the work in favour
of which an application aas made. But the Corn
missionees who had the disposal of the money would
particularly consider the influence the pi osecution of

SAVING BANKS.

Mr. ROSE moved the Oran of the Day for the
House goi.ig into a Committee on the Saving Banks
Bill; pro falba; for the purpose of adJing some clauses,
and postp.:ning the discussion until -Friday next.
Sir Ci-MONCK whiled also to add a clause, ena-
bling persons having interests in those Banks, to
transhr such interests by way of security.
Sir J. NEWPORT was decidedly against making
those interests negotiable: it would be adverse to the
whole intent of the Legislature.
Atter a lew words from Sir THOMAS BAILING and
Mr. Pnit.r.rPs, the House went into a Committee,
when the Bill was read in it: several clauses.

Mr. HUSKISSON moved that those labourers
and others who should have, during three years, paid
a weekly sum into the Saving Winks, without draw-
ing out any part cf it,, should, in case of their becom-
ing paupers by adverse circumstances, be entitlef to
additional allowances.—Agreed to.
Tl:e Report of the Bill was ordered to be received

THE EVENING STAR.
London, England, 1817-04-29

in the distribution of this loan. in the event of a ge-
neral election, might produce the most injurious and
reprehensible effects. ,Before he sat down, he could
not help throwing out for the consideration of the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, in place of the intended
issue, the propriety "of remitting the *rear; of the
Property Tax (or two or three years, or he would
say altogether. Such an alleviation at this moment
would be attended with the most effectual assistance
to a most suffering class, while the fair dealer met no
greater impediment to his claims than what arose from
the severity with which those arrears were collected.
Mr. 11U I'TERWORTH recommended that a
portion of these fonds should be applied to the erec-
tion of parochialschool houses. - • .
The first Resolution was then put and carried.
On the second Resolution. for voting the sum of
£250,000 to be applied to the use of the Public
Works and Fisheries of Ireland,
Sir F. FLOOD tomplained of the very short mea.
sure afforded in its unparalleled distress to Ireland,
whose population were patient under their sufferings,
whilst other parts of the Empire were disturbed by
meetings to subvert the Constitution. He bad recently
traveled through five' counties in Ireland, and the
only food of its• labouring poor was half-boiled pota-
toes. It was shameful in st.eh an emergency to see
Marquisses, 'Earls, and Gentlemen of fortune, emi-
grating, as numerously as shoals of herrings (a
'laugh), to foreign countries, for no other reason than
to avoid their share of the taxes.—(Hear, hear.)—
If it was amusement therwanted, why did they not
come to our country—(a laugh)—and give us the
benefit i—But no—they spent more money than it
would.otheswise cost: them in doing their duty, by
travelling from England to Calais, and from Calais
to France--(a itursh).—The House would not do its
duty, unless itlevied on ,all these emigrants an impost
'of 20 per cent: unlesi hi the case of ill health, which
should. be verified by the certificate of a physician
'(a lairri),..—The Irish Members, at a great expense,
and with :considerable difficulty in procuring their
rents from their unfortunate tenants, came to this
country to do their duty; and yet in the meritorious
endeavonts of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, their
suffering Constituents arc Cut off with short measure.
All they wanted was Capital—he trusted, therefore,
the Right Honourable Gentleman would re-consider
the second Resolution, and add a few thousands more
for the use of the right arm of England—(a larch).
Tile Resolution was tarried, and the Report or-
dered t, be received to-morrow.

that this Club shrunk from the contest, and the Peti-

BOSTON. SEPTEMBER is.

Captain Taylor, arrived at New York in 28 days
from Tobago, informs that a Spanish schooner, with
150 passengers; had arrived there from Augustura,
where the Royalists had been completely defeated.
There were eighteen sail of vessels in the port at the
time, on board of which the Royalists emb-irked.—
On leaving the port the Patriots directed their guns
against the fleet, and did ennsiderable damage. Six
sail of the above fleet had arrived at Tobago.
The Bdsimore Fede►al Gement of last Friday states,
on the authority of private and authentic accounts
from Amelia, that General McGregor has consented
that all Spanish prises, captured by the Patriotic
privateers and sent into Amelia, shall be condemned
there for the use of the captors.—lt was very un-
healthy at Amelia Island; many officers had died.
By the Enterprise, Captain Frater, arrived at this
port yesterday, in eleven days from Halifax, we learn,
that by a decision of the Admiralty Court at that
place, on the 9.9 th of Amin last, the twenty sail of
American fishing vessels carried into Halifax on the
17th of June, by his Majesty's skip Dee, Captain
Chambers, are to be restored to the claimants.

SEPTENUR Z.—Captain Fisher, who left Cape
Henry (Hayti) on the 14th ult. assures us, that the
Congress frigate was well received at that place, and
every civility and attention shewn Mr. Tyler and the
officers of the ship, that the Authorities at the Cape
could possibly bestow. The cause that prevented an
esehange of salutes was, that the Governor at the
Cape could nit order it without permission from the
Prince, who was at that time absent from Sans Souci.
The frigate was allowed to take large supplies of re•
freshmeots without any of the ordinary charges of
duty, &c. required of merchant ships. Capt. Fibber
believes that the certificate of appointment by the
American Government, presented sb the interpreter
at the Cape by Mr. Tyler, directed him to Cape Fran.
cols, St. Domingo, which prevented any further pro.
gaps in the mission.

at the head of the new trial paper, and which st will

ries of Cranbourn Chace), inasmuch from its length
it might interfere with more urgent business before

This was an action for goofs sold and delivered.
At the trial before Lord Ellenborough, in dse Sittings
atter Hilary Term, the plaintiff was nonsuited, with
liberty to mum to set aide the noosuit.
The•case was the, the defendant was a fure;gn
merchant, resiJing At Riga, in Russia. He had come
to this country for the purpose of making purchases
for the foreign market, and having letters of recom-
mendation to Mr. Seynairur, a British merchant, he
empl.,yed the latter to make the necessary purchases,
he agreeing to pay for the goods by his own aceep.
cancel, at six months, and stipulating that the defen-
dant should pay him twn per cent. on she principle of
a del et-dere commission. In putsu Ince of this ar-
rangement, goods to a considerabl: instrott were sup.
plied to die defendant, the plaintiff Kevin; Ms accept-
ances at six months iodic sellers. lm iiediately atter
these transactions, the plaintiff becoming embarras-
sed in his circumstances, arrested the defendant for
the amount of the goods supplied before the bills be.
came due, aid the action was defended by the latter,
on the principle that the plimititi was ;lively his
agent, and nut the seller of the {foods, the circom.
stance of his receiving a commission being alleged as
denoting the principle upon which lie,acied.
The case was now argued with considerable learn-

The Coma wtie unanimodsly of opinion, that the

regret to find that fame has been kinder to this llt.yal
Friar than the fact will authorise. It appears that
four different plans to supply the deficit in the public
revenue; a deficit amounting to upwards of 260 mi:.
lions of reals, or £2,703,335 sterlirg, were submitted
to FERDINAND by his Ministers. Three concurred in
selecting the revenues of the Church as the most avail;
able coulee of supply, and only differed as to the nom
expedient mode of attaching them, while the
preferred an extraordinary contribution from, or mere
properly speaking, an extraordinary imposition upia
the people at large to every thing else.—Now, it is
not any one of these dime plans which touched en
the exorbitances of the Clergy—but the last, which is
to fall wholely on the people that I:no:NAND has
adopted. His Majesty, it is said, has had considera.
tion for the sufferings of the Clergy during the late
troubles of the country."—But what are all the snf.

to have suffered, that they still absorb more than a

the others will butdiscovered.
All the Princes of Italy are eager to protect the
passage of strangers through their dominions. They
bring a great deal of money into circulation, and this
opens new markets for our productions. They reckon
at this moment above 800 English families in the
three cities of Florence, Leghorn, and Pis... The
number of young Euglish who are receiving their
education in various schools in Italy, may b: esti-

SI UfGARD, FT.BRUARY co.

The Minister of the Interior has just published a
long advertisement respecting the Mania of Ens7gra-
Lion, which he says seems to increase in a manner
calculated not only to injure the State, but also to
plunge into the greatest distress a number of persons
and their families. He warns the people against
venturing on such a change without due deliberation,
and especially a voyage to America, without funds
to pay the passage and to settle there, since they will
otherwise be reduced from the condition of citizens
of. Wurtcmberg to that of slaves. The Magistrates
are ordered to be particularly watchful over emus•
saries who seek to seduce his Majesty's subjects to
undertake such voyages.

ARRESTS AT GLASGOW.

We have already informed our Readers that the
persons taken into custody at Glasgow were all of
the class called workmen. By the accounts received
this morning, we are led to believe that a degree of
importance has been attached to these arrests, which
the real facts by no means warrant. The School-
master was not arrested at any meeting, but at his
ohm house, on a specisl warrant. • On investigation,
it appears, that nothing appeared against the gentle.
man, and he has in consequence been discharged.
The eaaminations of the other persons arrested were
still going on when our accounts left Glasgow, nor
had any of them been committed; but anGther of
the apprehended persons, besides the School-master,
had been discharged.

LAW INPALLIGENCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY.. MARCH I.
SETTLEMENT OP A wires SEPARATE PROPERTY.

Mr. Daniel, applied for the direction of his Lord-
ship respectiug the marriage settlement of a Lady, a
wardo4 the Court, under the following circumstances:
The Lady being possessed of £lO,OOO under the will
of her father, had, with the approbation of her guar-
dian, bestowed herself in marriage on a gentleman
of the name of Johnson. Upon the occasion of her
marriage a deed of settlement had been prepared,
and, as was usual, submitted to the Master for.his
approbation. It provided a sum of £2OO for the
Lady as pin money, the interest of the remainder
to the husband for lift:—after his death to the wife, if
she survived him—and in the event of bot'i their
deaths, the whole to be divided among the children
of the marriage. This settlement the Master had
disapproved of, and his objection was, that the whole
of the Lady's property was ultimately settled on the
children of the present marriage. He considered it
his duty to contemplate the probability of the Lady
surviving her husband, marrying a second husband
and having a second family, in which event she
would not have the means of appropriating a shilling
of her property fur the benefit of the children of such
second marriage. Such was the nature of the Mas-
ter's objection, and it was for his Lordship to say
whether it was well-founded.

The LORD CHANCELLOR asked whe.her Mr. John.
UM settled any of his own property on the Lady.?
Mr. DANIEL replied in the negative.
Lotto CHANcaLLoR—Then the Mister Ins judged
very right. If a Gentleman chooses to marry a Lady
and her fortune too, it is but justice that her fortune
should be settled for the benefit of all the children
she may hare.

RIOT IN SOMERSETSHIRE.

Friday, the Coal-miners of Paulzop, in Somer.
setshire, chewed symptoms of disconte2t : owing to
some new regulations being made respecting their
wages, they assembled in a body, and refused to
work. Sir Jour; Goa 'HIPPISLCY was fortunately at
his estate in that neighbourhood, and, on hearing of
the circumstance, insmecliately proceeded to Paulton,

and addressed the even in the most persuasive lan-
guage, pointing out to them the ill consequences
which would result if they did not retire to their

homes that night, and he would listen to their griev-
ances nest day. In the mean time, Sir Jou:4 dis-
patched messengers to Bristol for the 23i Lancers,
and for the North Somerset Yeomanry ; a troop of
the latter arrived at Paulton the same evening, and
the others reached that place early un Sit rday morn-
ing. Sir J. C. WIPPISLILY having assembled the Ma-
gistrates early in the morning, proceeded through the
d4Ferent coal works, and' came to Paulton, where be
apprehended four of the ringleaders of the coal-
miners. The misguided men bad increased their
numbers in the neighbourhood cif Radstock, and the
Magistrates assembled at twelve o'clock, when the
Rof Act *as read ; after which Sir Joiy again ad-
chessed the rioters, great part cf whom irarnediAtdy
threw away their bludgeons, dispersed, and order was
happily restored. The four ringleaders were fully
committed to Detester gaol on Saturday evening,
under an escort of the North Somerset Yeomanry.
The 23d Lancers remain at Paulton, Radstock, and
Farringdon.

The cause of Representation has triumphed. After
two further adjournments of the discussion on es
Law of Election, the two first articles of the pre:tz
of Ministers have been carried by a great anti 6,
tinguished majority. By the first of these 41
Frenchmen who are thirty years of age, and pay Sog
francs of taxes per annum, are to be allowed to soy
in the choice of the Deputies—and by the wow,

which remains to be voted is that which proposes Is
