self on hoard this frigate and was infnrmed that there
were 14 or 15 British officers, 250 British sailors, and
34 Turkish sailors employer) and actually going oat
with her. He wished to take that opportunity of ash-
ler the Noble Marquess if he would allow each a gross
violation of neutrality, or if he would not enforce the
Foreign Enlistment
The Marquess of LONDONDERRY said, that the
Paella of Egypt had given the assistance to this country
in conveying hither from Egypt the remains of antiqnhy,
which had been collected there, and before the breaking
out of the war between the Greeks and Turks, this
Turkish ship come bare with those anthrities. It was
at the same time requested that this vessel might he per-
mitted to be newly coppered ; it was also requested that
h seamen might be permitted to man her on her
return, as far as Malta, to which he saw no objection.
As a proof of the disposition of the government in ob-
serve a strict neutrality, they refused a permission to
purchase two frigates here for the Turkish service,
and also refused to allow the Turkish frigate to return
armed.
Colonel DAVIES said that he understood guns were
also taken on board. and he could not conceive bow 250
sailors were necessary to navigate the vessel to Malta.
The Marquess of LONDONDERRY said that he
would enquire more particularly, and if there was any
thing contrary to the previous arrangement with Go-
vernment, it should he rectified.
Dr. LUSHIN(;TON said (as we understood) that he
thelight 50 or 60 men would be quite sufficiem to navi-
gate her to Madrid.
Mr. C. HUTCHINSON said that shonld it be known
that the Pacha of Egypt was enmplet.ly tinder the con-
troal of the Porte. So many officers and sailors should
not be permitted to go nut under the pretext of navi-
gating the vessel to Malta. The Huth was, that the
Greeks being the only seamen, and they were anxious
• tinder any pretext to get British sailors.
Mr. P..ROBINSON said that by the Poreiga Enlist-
ment• Bill no person could enter into a foreign service
unless he were permitted by an order from the King in
Council, and no such order having been made in this
case, the persons who violated the law were themselves
responsible.
Mr. BARING said that the character of the country
was suffering under the base imputation of (in some de-
gree, openly, and in every respect privately) aiding the
Turks; at least, such was the belief in France, Italy,
and
might be to trust to the explanation of Ministers, as to
the vessel in question, he did not think there would be
the same disposition on the Continent to believe them.
SOPTIS AIIeRICAN INDEPENDENCE.
Sir J. MACKINTOSH said, though late the hone,
he was still anxious to put a question to the Noble Mar-
qnese, for two reasons ; first, that the answer might re•
lieve mercantile people from much anxiety; and, se-
(evilly, to discover if any steps had been taken towards
the reeornition of independence in South America.—
He
wished now to ask the Noble Marquess if any repre-
sentation had yet been made to the Goverment of Spain.
which would be likely to lead to the recognition of tilde-
perelence in South America by Great Britain?
The Marquess of LONDONDERRY said that discus-
pions were pending with Soain relative to the recogni-
tion of South American Independence, but what the m-
oult would be be could not predict. If the lion. Mem-
ber should, on a subsequent occasion, enter into a fuller
discussion on the subject in his power.
PRUE IiONET.
Sir R. WILSON asked the reason of the delay in dis-
tributing the sum of 23,000!. granted as Prize Money to
the Army of Egypt 7
Sir C. I,ONO. mid the distribution was delayed in
.at tonsetrence•of an additional cialta from the captors, (het
hes cow under adjadieatioo.
After a few words from 'Col. Dketire, Sir C. Lotto,
and Sir R. Ilrts.sce.
Mr. BF.NNET said be had heard complaints front ohl
comrades of difficulties experienced in getting their
shares of the Java Prize Money.
Mr. CROKER said hr was one of the Trustees of the
Java Prise Money. They bad distributed a larger sum
Chats had ever been divided in the same time, and had
no: met with a single complaint ; if any were made they
should be readily attended to.
DEER SELLING SILL.
After some conversation as to the convenience of the
Noose, Mr. BROUGHAM fixed the discussion on this
Bill for an early hour to-morrow.
The house was about to resolve itself into a Commit-
tee, when
Sir F. 05151ANNEY, adverting to what had been
said on the subject of the distribution of prize money,
complained of the treatment of Captain Edward Staple-
tnr, who had landed at Java and lost an arm, but who
Ind been obliged to share as an able seaman. Against
sncli treatment be entered his protest, and he hoped he
weuld yet be allowed to share like any other Captain.
The house then resolved itself into a Committee.of
Sumity.
Mr. GOULBURN moved a grant for the Protestant
Chertered Schools in Ireland of 17,0001.
Mr. HUME called the attention of the house to the
amount granted for charitable institutions in Ireland at
the time of the Union, and that now called for. The
sum total valued at the former period was 217,000/.
Last rear there bad been voted for the same service
316,000/. It was gratifying to mark the success which
bad attended the efforts of the benevolent to improve
the state of the lower orders in Ireland. Such exertions
were more successful than votes of public money, which
bad the effect of deterring the charitable from doing
what they would otherwise have done. It was therefore
his wish to see each grants gradually reduced. In the
present instance it would be well to reduce the same to
seven or eight thonsamd pounds. and apply the remain-
der to educate the poor on a different plan, without re-
gard to religions distinction.
Mr. GOULBURN thought the objection to the vote
a little unfair, seeing it had been reduced this year. lie
agreed that votes of public money abated the zeal of be-
revolent persons in some cases, bat he owed it to Ire-
land, to say, that those who supposed the efforts of the
charitable there had been restrained within moderate li-
mits by such means were much mileaken.
After someob lion from Mr. Rica, Mr. &TT'S.
WnitTn, and Mr. PsEL, the vote was agreed to.
A sum of 3,0001 t was voted to the Foundling Hospital,
after a few observations by Mr. BENNET and Mr. D.
liaowne.
Ihe sum of 6,461/. was proposed fur the Association
for Seppressing Vice in Ireland.
Mr. HIJME wished the money to be expended for the
education of Roman Catholic Children in the South and
West of Ireland.
Mr. D. BROWN said the Roman Catholic Priests
would Wallow Roman Catholic children to be educated.
—The vote was agreed to.
The snm of 10,0001. was voted for the Kildare-street
Establishment for Education of the Poor.
4,0001. was granted for Schools established by Volun-
tary Contributions.
7,600/. for the Hibernian Society:
8,9281. for the Roman Catholic Seminary.
2,0001. for the Royal Cork Inatitation.
7,001 N. were proposed for the Royal Dublin Society.
Mr. HUME moved to reduce the grant to 2,000/,; bet
this amendment was negativeeafter a short conversation
and the sum required, voted.
2,5001. were voted for the expenees of the Farming So
elegy in Ireland.
3,0001. for the Royal Irish Academy.

The sem of 8571. wee propelled to make good the defi-
ciency of th• grant for stationery in 1821.
Mr. S. RICK asked whether the inquiry npon the cob•
ject of the supply of King's stationery was brought to an
end.
Mr. 1101.1,111.01. stald that it had, and that it was de-
cided that the chargealked hernias° high, and were conse-
quently lowered. •
Sir ti. 111 LI. stated, that the inquire had led to the
completeescolpation of Altlertnae King .frotethe charges
which bad been made spinet hiui.
Mr. S. RICE and Mr. 111.31 E denied that such had
been the result of the enquiry.
Mr. °MILBURN stated the impression on his mind
to he, that a clerk of Alderman Fines had made the
orerch wges without the knowledge of the Alderman.
The vote, with several others, were agreed to, and the
Chairman reported progress.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and
the house adjourned at half-past two o'clock.

STOCK KXCIIANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
This being Settling Day, most of the brokers are
busy settling their accounts, and in consegnenie there
is not much other fussiness doing. The Inetnatioos
during this account is from 79/ to 82. tip to this
hour we have not heard of any defaulter, and it is
supposed most of the accounts bare been made op pre-
vious to this day. A reprot prevailed in the earlier
part of the morning, that an express from Paris had
brought Tuesday's prices, which were one per cent.
lower than the day before ; hnt this is supposed to be
a stnelt.jobb;ng trick. Consols at preseut are

ONE O'CLOCK.

FOREIGN Ferns.—But few bargains have been
done this morning in foreign securities, as the public
are waiting for the nest accounts from Spain. A
Portugal loan of two millions is on the eve of being
taken; but the Contractors in London, and the Porta-
vies, awernment cannot as yet agree 'hoot the price.
—Letters front ['Ads state, that when the news arrived
there of the defeat of the Spanish guards, the Spa-
nish Bonds rose to G2l. Accounts from Hallamd to-
day, state that the Dutch Govern nem have intimated
to the Colombian Repnhlic that *be lIMIeIIII
any F:orepean Power acknowledges it, they wil
be the first power to follow, and that in the
mean time, the Columbian nag will he received
in Holland. The account also mates, that Mr. Zen is
daily evileveld there. It appears that the contractors
of the fureirro loans, particularfy ate Jett., ire "really
disappointed in their expeetatioas as the great monied
men keep their capitals at their bankers', and, at -pre-
sent, are afraid to bite at any forrigs securities. think-
ing their money more safe in an English coffer. than
in countries where coaster-revolution may daily take
place. It is said, on 'Change, that the two columns
which entered France, were to receive the King of
Spain, if the plan of the guards had sticceedell, hat,
on hearing of their defeat, they immediately wade a
.retrogate movement into France again.

We have received this Liming Paris papers to the
16th instant. They contain no free) aeconnts from
Madrid, bnt a variety of versions of the events of
which we had been previously apprised. Not a few
reports are likewise added, which• being of doubt-
ful authority we forbear to repeat. It is said
in the Coastitutionnel that Qemsarlis bands have
been dispersed, and that be himself was either
taken prisoner or obliged to flee to France.
In the sane article, it is stated that the troop
in Biscay and Navarre cap d a lively indig-
nation at !calming the coaster-revolutionary movements
at Madrid, and immediately addressed to Government
the most unreserved declarations of Oddity and devo.
lion. The turn which these events have had has much''
provoked the Cl:ra papers of France.
