sine die, to meet only when•the Report of .the Com-
mittee shall be ready to be laid before it. The proceed-
ings in the Chamber of. Deputies were not of a very
important nature. The trial of the person who styles
himself the Dauphin has made considerable progress;
bet the reports of the proceedings are so invidiously
directed against the Prisoner, every word and act of
the accused being termed into ridicule, though the
Court appears to be deliberating gravely on the sub. I
jest, that no clear opinion can be formed of the case
through the medium of sects details.
The -Vienna account. state the arrival of a courier
at Bucharest, in the night between the 14th and 15th

The Houses of Parliament did" not all long lest
night, but some topics of great public interest were
noticed. The tables of both Moses are now loaded
with Petitions from persons complaining of bar-
barous and illegal treatment, under the Suspension
Act, whilst it is known that a Committee are pre.
paringe Report fur a Bill of Indemnity, which will •
doehtlees refits all the allegations in these Petitions,

should, on Thursday nest, move that it be referred
to the Secret Committee now sitting; and on en-
quiry-whether the Report of the Committee would be
presented before Thursday, his Lordship was an-
swered in the negative. It appears, then, that some
longer time will elapse before that mountain,

served from the Report what frivolous matters'
are made exclusive bars to the more laying of a

Petition was objected to by the Loan Cuarrceu.oa
and the Earl of LITIRPOOL, because the word
‘.‘ Humble" did nut precede " Petition;" but the
Earl of CARNArION having insisted that the sense of
'Ate House should be taken on the propriety of read-1
ing it, the formidable appearance of the Opposition'
Benches, compared with those of the Treasury, in-
duced the Ministers to permit the Petition to be de-
ceived. This man, wounded in character, in health,l
aid in fortnne, now comes to the bar of the Legisla-
ture, and prays—not for punishment against his ag.
