CHARITABLE BEQUESTS.

Sir J. NEWPORT withdrew his motion On this
subject, as a Bill to a similar effect was to be intro-
duced. He then moved for leave to bring in a Bill
for exempting from the legacy duty, all charitable
bequests for the education of poor children, and the
support of widows ; and also for exempting from
duty all advertisements containing notices of sub-
scriptions, and for meetings on the subject of chari-
table bequests. The objects of the Bill were not
likely to be objected to; and as a clause to the ef-
fect of the proposed Bill had been inserted in the
Irish Stamp Act, the same prevision should be ex-
tended to this country.
Mr. PERCEVAL said, that a man in his life-
time might give what he pleased to charities; but he
questioned the policy of giving encouragemeut to a
disposition of property. that might injure a man's
nearest heirs. Persons infirm in body and 'mind
might make bequests greatly to the prejudice of their
relatives : it was not consistent with policy to en-
courage this. As to exempting advertisements for
certain charities from duty, it was likely to intro-
duce great inconvenience into the collecting of the
taxes. Was the publisher of a newspaper to be the
judge whether the advertisement was of such a de-
scription as the proposed Bill exempted from duty ?
And hew were publishers to be prevented from tak-
ing the duty, when no: afterwards accounting for to
the Stamp Office? It would introduce inconvenient
distinction, without adequate advantages.
Sr J. NEWPORT thought the regulations be pro-
posed beneficial, for large deductions wero made
from charitable funds by duties on advertisements :
but as the Motion was opposed, and did not seem
likely to meet support, be should not be pertinacious
in recommending it. The Motion was negatived.

DISTILLERIES,

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
moved the third reading of the Bill for Preventing
Distillation iron. Grain.

Mr. HUICIIIINNON protested against suspend-1
ing intercourse in spirits between this country and
Ireland ; and called on the Minister to explaiu why
he violated the Union, which gu:..-anteed the full
interchange 'of manufactures and produce. As well
might he propose to violate that article which pro-
vided that: Ireland should send 100 representatives.
Ile might introduce a bill, that it should hereafter
send 50, or none at all. An infraction of the Union
would take place in both cases. It was aiming a
blow at the agricultural interests of Ireland. How
was its revenue to be supported, if an outlet were
refused to the prAnce of its distilleries ? The jea-
lousy of England had produced the ruin of the Irish
woollen manufactures ; and if the Articles of Union
were to be suspended, what security was therel, that
measures equally injurious to•industry might not he
pursued ? The Hight Honourable Gentleman had
claimed the merit of attention to Irish interests ; and
certainly considering the very liberal principles on
which his adhliiiistration commenced and had been

LAW IN TE L LIG ENCE.

SHERIFF'S COURT.
SECONDARY'S OFFICE, COLEMAN-STR2ET,
LIBEL.
ALEVANDER RENNIE, ESQ. P. WALSH •Nin I (NE.
This was an inquisition to assess the qintieurn of damage; that
should be awarded for a libel which had appeared in Tne Bri-
tish Prell and Litube Newspapers in October but, judgment hav-
ing been suffered to go by detault.
From the rateineut of Mr. Serjrant BEST, It appeared that
the libel in question was contained in a paragraph, stating, that
Mr. Rennie had been brought to a Court-Martial. at„Sneerness,
on charges of drunkenness and cowardice; and that to th .s •
charges he bad pleaded iatetuitel. The fact was, that the Plaiider
bad nut pleaded " insanity," but had denied the justice ut Ilk.
charges, and consequently had gone on his defence. The defer', s
was successful—he was ultimately " most honourably acqn itted,"
and the Court observing at the same time, that they could not
find language strong enough to convey their sentiments of disap.
probation of these who had preferred such charges.
Captain Dundas was then examined. He stated, that he had
applied to Mr. Lane to learn the author, observing to him, that
if the author of the libellous paragraph was gives up, the ra-
perwould not be prosecuted. Mr. Lane refused to give up ihe
author, stating, that it was written by the brother of one of lilt
particular friends, at his own table.
Mv. (ivwstow appeared for the 1/efetidants.
The SE&SIDARY then summed up the case for the Jury. Every
opportunity, he remarked, had been given to the Defendants to
acquit tliemselve. of the penalties resulting from proseentioks
provided they gar:. up the author. That, however, they had not
done, and as such was the case, the .lury must consider them at
the authors of the libel, and award damages accordingly.

LONDON:
lATURPAT, JULY 11, 1812.

An Anholt Mail arrived this morning, by which
It appears that no confirmation had .been received in
that quarter, of the rumour of a peace having been
concluded between the Russians and Turks; and,
from other circumstances, we are inclined to regard
the report as premature. The following are extracts
from the papers bro.4ht by this Mail
AUGSBURG, June 17.
The last letters from Vienna do not confirm the
report of a peace having been concluded between
Russia and the Porto, which had been so boldly as.
sorted, and the stipulations even announced.—it was
a Secular Canon, wbo arrived at Vienna from Trim.
sylvania, that first circulated -the report. He as-
serted that peace had been signed at Bucharest, the
28th of May, upon the basis of the treaty concluded
in 1771, at Rhudschuck and Kainardgej according
to whici:, Russia was not only to give ep all her
conquests, bet also restore the fortress of Oczakow,
and declare the Cuban and Crimea, independent,
and that its, ratification was expected.—(Correspon-
denten, Jam 23.)
Notice I.as been given from the Town Hall of Co-
penhagen, bearing date the 20th lost. stating, that
by hit. Majesty's most gracious resolution, dated 18th
ditto, it is ordained that no person whatsoever shall,
from this present date, and until the end of the
month of November, give orders for any kind of
foreign manufactures, u they most not expect to
obtain permission to clear such goods inwards, not-
withstanding that the Importation of them may not
be psoliihitetl; bat that, nevertheless, such permis-
sable goods may be entered for re-exportatioo.—

'SUFFERERS IN THE PUBLIC CAUSE.

Whets:ere 1y hold the perseverance awl patience n-
ldev of some men in the public cause, we
are snore than ever convinced that nature has planted
in the true patricit's breast a passion as strong for se-
curing a national blessing to his posterity, ai that
which he feels for the preservation of his life. The
sleet+) of freedom, and the extension of venality and
corruption, must therefore afflict the hearts of such
men, as much as the anticipated sight of a blank in
the emotion, would those of 'ordinary beings. As
it is the common course of man's lot to die,and there-
by snake way for posterity, so it is often the lot of
the patriot prematurely, to suffer for the benefit' of
future generations, and the smaller consideration In
this, as well as in logic, is absorbed in the greater
The patriot, with philosophic reach of thought,
knows, that among all his comtemporarics, not one
may be left alive in-another ; but that the bene-
fits communiated by 'his sacr;lice of himself, will be
felt, perhaps, through endless generations ; and, like
the inflamed warrior, when he saw his troops con-
quer the foe, exclaimed, as he lay expiring under
Iris mortal wound—" Then I die happy, as the field
is ours ;" so the impassioned patriot, when the very
axe is uplifted at the tyrant's nod, with stubborn
eloquence, land in strains of exalting triumph, thus
addresses the multitude—" I die in your cause, and
shall live in your records."—What man„ then, who
contemplates how often the liberties of his country
have been endangered, and that they have been as of-
ten saved by the martyrs who have bled for them,
• can be other than grateful to their memories. Yet,
alas! se are sadly degenerated. Patriotism is in.
suited, and public liberty laughed at. Whatever po-
litical writer does not make Ministers the centre of
his applause, is fortunate if he escape unhurt in his
first essay. If he plead the cause of the poor, the
oppressed part of the community, he is sure to be
accused of a design to excite popular commotion ;
for, say these men, unacquainted with the impulse
of disinterestedness, " his clients cannot pay him,
he must therefore have some bail design ; he would
not plead for virtue's sake alone; it must be from re-
venge to us that he does it."—lt is not easy to say
what all this will end- in. It has already tended to
frighten many from their post, and those who have
suffered and are suffering for .the cause of freedom,
are to be found almost every where neglected and
pining in prison for having so nobly risked their per.
sonal liberty, and sacrificed every convenience of
for the general welfare. Would to Gon that
this alarming and accumulating degeneracy, may not,
by its weight, carry before it even the Mill portion
of public spirit that is to be found ia the country.

It is not common to begin appeals by telling tples,
that seem like the records of maglc ; but from a va-
riety of causes in many country towns, elec-

tioneering, clerical, and dissenting opinions, had pre-
vailed so successfully, as to divide man from man.--
The Whip *could have no dealings with the Tories—
the Churchmen with Dissenters—the old animosities
and distinctions of -Jew and. Samaritan were exem-
plified with remarkable and melancholy exactness.
The grocery of one min seemed Whigisli, of the dra-

that all mankind are kJ nature of their Father, the

be:proud of such parentage, often puts into rodo:

Strange to tell, in the present'mature state of so-
ciety, some Owns are to be found in this country1
with scarce any thing in the shape of public charity,
and very little provision was made for the universal
diffusion of knowledge ; and in many towns, undis-

UNION HALL.

Yesterday, Hatton, Clark, and Allen, the three
men in custody on suspicion of being concerned in
the attempt at robbery at Mr. Pryor's, were again
examined, when Sarah Wilkins not being able to
identify any of them, they were discharged. On
the morning of the day on which the robbery 'was
attempted, Mr. Pryer missed the key of the street-
door, and immediately searched all over the shop for
it, but without effect; and on the evening the
search was renewed by Mr. May. with no better suc-
cess. The villains there is no doubt, obtained en-
trance into the shop with a key, the door having
been on the spring lock ; but the lock, remained un-
injured. Itis a singular circumstance, that the key,
which could no where be discovered on the Sunday
by the strictest search, was discovered on the Thurs-
day following,, lying in au exposed situation in a
'closet in the shop, whici had frequently been exar
,mined during the -interval.

On Thursday morning, about one o'clock, as a pa:
trate of the Hamlet of Mile-end Old-town, was going
his rounds, he discovered some me❑ on the premises
of Mr. Austen, an inhabitant of that place, in the
act of robbing them. The villains endeavoured to
mak* their escape. The patrole called to one of
them who passed near him, to•stop ; hut the thief
not attending to the summons, the patrole fired: The
bait struck the man in th; left shoulder, and grazing
his buck, shattered the bone of the other shoulder,
where it lodged. lie was immediately apprehended,
and taken to the London Hospital. The ball is not
extracted, and the man is considered in a dangerous
state.

RULE BRITANNLI.

By examining the different maps, where the extent
of countries are pretty accurately laid down, it ap-
pears that the domiaions of Great Britain, in Eu-
rope, Asia, Africa, and America, considerably ex-
ceed, in size, the whole extent of Europe, and that
we have a population absolutely under our sway little
short of on hundred million of souls, add to this
a Navy superior to all the world united! !! With
such a lever in the hands of a towering. genius, what
could not be done? in the hands of a BONAPARTE
what would be done ? The real subjects of Great
Britain, are nearly three times the number of the
real acknowledged subjects of BONAPARTE. Many
millions of our Indian subjects are excellent soldiers;
why are they not sent to Sicily, Malta, the West
Indies, Africa, Botany Bay, and other places suited
to their constitutions? We send British troops to
all those places, why not send 'lndian troops also ?
They are as completely iincler our dominion and in
our pay as the other ; they are better habituated to
hot climates, and far easier supported; what a saving
of British blood this would prove, and what a su- ,
perabundance of troops for European warfare—nor !
would there be the slightest chance of mutiny. We ;
shouldeogagathein on those duties for a certain time,
as we do with the Lascars who navigate our India ship-
ping, under the obligation to be sent home at a stated
period, and any mutiny would prevent the hopoof their
return, as they would never have the command of I
shipping. We see BONAPARTE bring eren his aux.!
iliaries from the farthest point of the north to the
farthest point of the west. if we follow his example,
we shall be more than a match for him in numerical
strength. What a glorious sight it would be, to see
a battalion of our brave Seapoys cut his Polish
Lincers to pieces ! The whine of Britain's sun being I
set is childish ! GREAT BRITAIN, Al' THIS MOMENT, IS
BUT A HERCULES IN THE CR IDLE-.-.4the possesses ten •
times the resources of any power in Europe, ir pro-
perly developed. If some great genius was to start
up and take the helm, then would the tremendous
power of Great Britain be known and acknow- '
!edged. It is not simply the population she'com-
mands that could make her great ; •in some part or
other of her dominions she possesses all the sinews I.
of war, and all the arts of peace ; and•with regard to
the precious metals, not an ounce of gold or silver
should enter Europe but by her consent. Contem-
plate this, ye Lilliput Statesmen, and do not conti
nue to disgust evert man of sense with your pitiful
petty squabble's ! 'the game is completely iu your
own hand, but you don't know how to play it !
One great mind could erect the standard of Great
Britain over the whole habitable world ! !

We yetterday announced the important news of
an amicable adjustment having taken place between
America and Great Britain, upon the authority of a
letter which. tame to us by post, from Liverpool ;
but having this day received a note from Lt.o at's,
stati❑g, that letters of the 17th had been received
this morning (one day later than the reported arrival
of the Gen9ral IV hisington), making no mention of
the circumstance, and that the whole of the report Is
supposed to be a fabrication; we feel it our duty to
lay before the Public, a literal copy of the Com-
munication :

In addition to the above intelligence, we yester-

taking place, by stating, that an Armistice bad been

as a summary, though dreadful alternative, to which
they are reduced for the ,purpose of conquering
