ILICTION I[TITIOIIII.

The Cnsvcsi.i.oa of the Exteittyrit raid, he
rote. porfuant to a notice he gave on iriday
to make footle motions for the purpofe of deter-
mining the times of proceeding on the confedera-
tion of fevers! Petitions. complaining of undue
Ekelions. It was not the expeitation of the Houfe
that proceedings (bold take place on four fee eral
Petitions within the (pace of one week. Several
Members of that Houle were now attending Com-
rniuees. and if fo many Committees Should be
chofen in a week, there would be a danger of their
wanting convenient places, where they might be
accommodated. Betides, anay Gentlemen. N.
longing to the learned profeffion of the law, who
were Members of that Houk, were now abfen t on
the Circuits, on which account, there might not
he an attendance ltifficiently full to enable the
Houk to ballot for In many Committees ; it was
therefore unfit that all the orders fhould be exe-
cuted as they r,;:w flood. He meant no to pro.

pore. that is future there Ihnnhl he two Comm:.

flinnld adjourn for the Eager reeefi ; that all the:
remaining Petitions ihneld Rind over until after
that erne, when the Hnnfe fh•ohl determine a to

Orders for taking Petitions into cnnfideration be
difcharged, which was accordingly done. The
Houfe then, on his motion, made the followirl
orders for Petitions before Eager :—Thofe frntii

Mr.A d dington next observed, that there wereorders

called over; bat if, on I'burfday next, the Houk
timid fail in its attendance, fo as to he unable to

hot if the objet of the Call thould be accomplifhed,
he would not make any motion to that effeEl.

There was a llrong artiggle yederday between
the Balla and the Bears at the Stock Exchange.
The latter carried their point before the dole of
the market, by reports, which others were credu.,
I, lig enough to believe, that there was a milun•
tlerflAnding in the Cabinet, and that Mr. Aoromo•
vox was to be removed. The Rocks fill about
one per cent.

Another Dutch Mail arrived yelierday evening.
A letter from Confiantinople, by this conveyance,
Rates that a Negociation carried on by the Britifh
in favour of the Beys had at laft terminated in an
arrangement, by which the Beys are to be fuffered
to live in privacy in a village in Upper Egypt, as
fabjeis to the Porte. In confequence of this ar-
rangement, it is Paid the evacuation of Egypt by
our troops was immediately to take place. They
were to proceed to Malta.
It is pofGble the French ;neweit may have been
&tertiary to this arrangement—Time wiU Phew
from what motives,

The article in the Meeitaur refpeding the trial
of M. Pmrslllt, which we ycflerday laid before
our Readers, is a fobjea of general converfation.
It appears the French Government did not with
an appeal to be made to the Engliih Law ;—they
willed the El:glint Government to amilate it•
Pelf to that of France, and to fend PaLTIER out of
the country. There was a time when an Englidt•
Minnie: had no Alien Bill to hang over the bead
of every unhappy mile, or to encourage the info.
knee of new, or the arrogance of old t overn-
mints. There was a time when the Altar of Pity
had privileges beyond the reach of anyloreign or
doenellic power. There was a time wises England
might have been the afylum of Europe in all pub-
lk misfortunes :
Nn milli bellis, pithy's e Cede fogad
Lerbervomme laves
Coimalest. pecasifre

But now they have no refuge in our laws. Their
refuge only exifis in the honed feelings of the Peo-
ple. which may fupply the defea of law. What
would be the fate of the vanquifhed, of the exiled.
of the dethroned, if England were governed by a
Mittiftet without courage and without virtue ?
The Government of France might fay, as they
now fay t " You have an Alien Bill ; why do you
not shire from their afylom the men we fear and
bate t Do not (peak of profecutions, which neither
gratify our revenge, nor promote our fafety."
A Ruler of France may (peak fuch a language
to a Minider of England. That Minider's per-
tonal and political charaier, and not the law of
England, is the bulwark of the unfortunate. The
Mitiiiler may protet or abandon. How much
ooLler, how much more eonclufive would have
been the anfwer of an Englifh Minifter of old :
" The law of England for bids! The objea of your
diClike is not at our difcietion. We cannot deprive
him of slit, his adopted country, as you have of
that, his natural one." Then might Lord Pit.-
..Aso have triumphantly Interned.. the French
Government. and told theist :•••-a4 Not the Kisa,
my 'Bader, far lets the [Yoder Clerks in my
office, can banilh M. Pt urtaa He has laid
hold of the horns of the Altar of Pity, and no
power on earth can tear him from it." About
a century ago, a half civilised Barbarian called
upon the Government of England to put to death
a Blitifh liaise! who had infulted the dignity of
his empire, and the Government told him that
they surd not do it. The Barbarian wondered.
admired the laws of England. and was pacified.
A fimilar caufe of refufal now might have filenced
even the FiRST CON SU CA complaints againftAliens
t England.
But what is the cafe now with regard to the on.
happy viaims of the fad viciffitudes of human of
fairs, the patrio fermi Rezeorrinfre isles 1. The Mi.
eider can no longer oppore the barrier of the laws
to a peevids and anjußcemplaint. He mod argue,
he mod plead. nay he perpetually endangers east-
tional quarrel,beeaufe he eppofes his own dietetics
as the ground of refufal, indeed of appealing to
the law of the land. Thus, the refidence of hf,
PA I.TI El in England, or any other French exile,

may give rife to a diffute that may involve the
fate of Empirec. Indeed it is evident, that in the
prefent temper of the French Government they
think it a matter of right that every Frenchman
Should be driven from England, for the very reafon
that he would not be permitted to live in France.

We have received letters from Gibraltar to the
t.sth of tcbrnary, at which time the garriinn was
in good health, and quiet and regular, as ufual.

" GIBRALTAR, FEBRUARY IC.

" On the 7th the ACTIVS frigate failed for
Malta : the carried up money for the payment of
the troops there.
Yeflerday his Royal Highnefs the Governor
prefented the Bth Regiment with their new colours,
when he made them a very handfome fpeech on
the occation, doing jullice to the gallantry they
had (hewn throughout the war, and thanking them
for their exemplary conduit, (ince they had been
under his command in this garrifon.
" There is a grand boar hunt in Spain to-day,
about ten miles from this, to which many of the
Officers in the pram have gone to partake in
the amufement.

gi We have at prefent a feu of Italian and
French performers here, and a Spanilh Company
of Equeßrian Performers, by no means contemp-.
able."

The Royal Family's unezpefted departure from
Windlor, yeflerday morning, was occafioned by
the arrival of force difpatches, which his Maya try
received in the morning, at feven o'clock, by a
MelTenger from Minilters, in confequence of a
meeting which they held on Sunday evening.—
His Mayssry gave immediate direeions for pre-
parations to be made for going to London with
all potlible fpeed. A few minutes before eight
o'clock, his MAJESTeII Hobby Groom was dif-
patched to London, to order the bodes to meet
the Royal Family at Hounflow. The Metfenger
made fuch good . (peed, that he arrived at the
Mews at a quarter before ten; the horfes had been
out an airing in Hyde Park, and they were imme-
diately difpatched, and arrived at Hounflow in
good time, to meet the Royal Family. About
one o'clock their Maysirrtas and the Princeffes
ELISAIIITII and AUGUSTA arrived in a carriage
and four, at the (teen's Houfc ; they were fol-
lowed by the Princetfes Soma and AMELIA, at
tended by Lady ATLISSURT and Mil's Virst, in
another carriage and four. The arrival of the
Royal Family was In very unespeded, that the
Pagasitswaiting, and thofe employed in thett)2een's
book, were not apprized of it but a very flu.rt
time previous. It was her Royal Higtinefs, the
Princes Maar's intention, to have taken an airing
as ulna', between one and two o'clock ; but on
account of the ant:peeled arrival of her Royal
Parents, her Royal Highne Cs did nodeave the honk.
About twelve o'clock, the Dukes of You' and
Cl/satiates)) vifited her Royal Highnefs the Prin-
ces MAIM. -
At three o'clock a Cabinet Council was held at
the Queen's-Houfe, which his Majesry attended;
and tbere were prefent the Cameras-Loa of the
Excites:was, the Earl of WESTMORELAND, Lord
llos•av, Lord CASTLIatAGN, Mr. BRAGG', Ike.
The Council fat for a confiderable time.

It *ill be teen, by the eon►erfatinn that took
place lad night in the Houfe of Commons, that
the etlablifhinent of his Royal Highneti the Prince
of WaLcs will undergo another difcuaion.

It is laid that the Minißer means to increafe the
duty on all Strong Beer, to ten !haling: the barrel.
The conspiracy at Ruuen is now Rated tolhave
been formed by Chonans and Royalifts, whole ob-
jet was the fubverfion of the Inefent order of
things, and the reßoration of the Bourbons. The
pci rHIS engaged in it are dcfcribed as wretches of
the moil contemptible elefcription.
Coes!: T GAILIUM.—The new Play of "Wei Bell
was pct formed a fecund time lan night to a crowded
audience, and was again honoured with the moil
general applaufe. The author had abridged it
in leveret parts, and it went off the better for the
curtailment. The Epilogue was again encoted,
but Mr. Jomissront implored the Audience, as if
ever they wiiiied to fee Death Bradriedilery again,"
to escufe it, on account of his boarfenefs, and the
fatiguing part he had to fußain in The Poor S.L&r,
which was the farce. This they readily granted.
Dauer I-are.—Regarding the Tragedy of
Hank as a whsle, we do not hefitate to pronounce
that it was edearther better performed at this The-
atm lan night than it has been for a number of
years. The part of the Kix: has been taken from
PACIIIt. and put into the hands of that very re-
fpeiflable aaor Powacc, who, by refinring the fuse
folitoquy on repentance in the third aft, and Come
other paffages, has given the charatter its original
prominence on the dramatic canvafs ; but the prin-
cipal attraaion of the evening was that of Mr.
Coosa, who has for Come years !hone the Rose vs
of the American Rage. His ailing throughout
was of the moll dignified and imprefEre kind,;
particularly in the /cents which call fur the Rronger
workings of palEos. In his flliloquies we think
Mr. C. greatly faccefsful. In the termination of
the play-Cease, by giving leis bunk than fume late
favnurites, he did not make the time impreffion
on the audience as he did on almost every other
°martian t but he teems to have cisofen his own
manner from a n that be is right. In
meeting the he appears rather Aged with
terror than thrown by ha operation into a coaval.

The figure of Mr. Conan is tall and well foraged,
his deportment is graceful, his face is erpreavei
and his voice is fall toned and of eztenfive coal-
pars. We have so doubt of his becoming a great
favourite with the town. The theatrs was Dame-
