PROCEEDINGS IN PARLIAMENT.
Last night Lord CASTL AAAAA H brought forward Isis
rusolutiss relative to the importation regulations.—
Sir TMOMAII L tour proposed a different resell:e-
-lle& Neither of them were decided upon, but the
Mims reported progress with leave for the
Committee to sit again. The whole of the thing,
as brought forward by ford CAS AAAAAA CS, was such
Re VI iodine Sir FRANCIS BURDIITT to obrerve, and
justly to observe, that it was impossible for say body
to tell wbethet Lit Lordship were is jest or in earnest.
It was the old story as contained in the last Agri-
cultural Report. But, in the course of the evening.
there was some sensible matter brought forth. Mr.
ATTWOOII, Sir Tnomas LITURRIDOE, and Sir FRAN-
VS BURDETT; spoke to the real question before the
con otry ; namely, whether Pssis Bill were to be re-
prAled or not ; and all the three insisted that it was
impossible that the fend holder could be paid. unless
so Le alteration was made with respect either to the
currency or the lases. Mr. Arran°, most ably ex-
pored the absurdity of the Ricardo destrient I showed
Low monstrous it was to dose gold as the standard ;
when ears or produce is general ought to hive bees the
stindffrd. Mr. ATTWOOD said that the whole pro-
perty of the landlords mast is time be exhausted by
taxation and fall into the hands of the public creditor;
and he concluded by saying that it was a shameful
delusion to pretend, that, with a metallic currency.
the farmer could go on paying the same taxes that he
paid in a paper currency. Mr. RICARDO endeavoured
to parry thiA thrust. He puzzled himself, as he had pea-
rled himself before by confounding the valve of the paper
as compared with geld in the market, and the value
of that same paper as compared with articles of eon-
sumption. This gentleman seems incapable of an-
deistanding the distinction eves now. He seems in-
capable of gettiag rid of his original error, that error
which has led to all the present difficulties. Sir
THOMAS Lemnatoce took the side of Mr. ATTWOOD,
and said that it was impossible that the public cre-
ditor should go on receiving Lis dividends ice bard
money. Ile called upon Mr. Palm to retrace kis
steps; that is to say to recant his recantation. He
said "the tail of the Right Hon. Secretary's Rill most
"he cut off. It was impossible to go through with
" it, and the proposition of the Noble Lord opposite,
" with regard to country !nuke, proved that the Go-
" vernment ware convinced of the impossibility of
" pushing ibis measure to extremities." Sir
FRANI BURDETT Said that there was no reason
why faith should be better kept with the public
creditor than with the public itself; and that the
!louse mild to bear this in mind, because to it they
must come at last. The Hon. Baronet concluded by
saying, " that if the miseries produced by the raw
f the Ministry were not good ground for a
" change of Ministry, he knew not what amid be good
" ground for such a chsoge." There was a general
cheering at the conglusioo of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT's
Speech. The Ministers seem to have been greatly de-
pressed, last night as well as the night before. Mr.
Itonirrsos (certaisly one of the most able and least
offensive men amongst theca) in vain endeavoured to
make a sort of rally. He endeavoured to retort upon
Sir Faancte Bottom and Sir THOMAS LETIIIIRIDOZ.
lie accused them of a design to undermine the nation.
al faith. He said "be saw there was a disposition
" to invade file integrity of public credit," upon
which there was a loud cheering from the opposition!
Ile then said " he was not sorry to had such an ',pietism
" thus equivalently staled by a camber of Members
" of that House." Loud cheering again. Mr. 111••
ntosore complained that the Ministers bad been re-
presented as the persons who had caused the present
evils. But we shall be glad to know who it is that
Las caused them, if it be not the Ministers? The
' evils are to be ascribed to them as a part of the Par-
liament. They have a little more to do with them
thee members in general, because it was they who
proposed the measures that have produced the evils.
Once more, the old story about Anteriean distress was
Drought forward by Mr. ROSINION and without say
proof, or any attempt at proof of the truth of 'bosom-
lion. his notorious that America is,at this time, is the
greatest state of prosperity. That sot a piece of paper in
country is a legal leader: that the masufactures
that country are flourishing in reality ; and that,
to agriculture, why does not Mr. Rosisson pro-

der; es some ceemdaist. ease petition ; ettmetblei or
another to establish the troth of his amortises?—This
&hate is to be resets/4 tomight ; sod we are toad-
davit, thet. at every meowsl of it, the Ministers will

NLWSPAPER A ay cnr smsurs.--Mr.Hr its brought
forward a motio■ relative to sums paid by the public
offices for the insertion of sdvertisements in the mewl-
papers. This motion might be very proper in order
to show the extent of patronage and lefinence exer-
cised in this way; but, as Mr. Hums thought proper
to manage the thing, the whole proceeding seems to
have been neither more nor less that a premeditate.,
puff' for the Old Times newspaper ; and it eises Is ma

paper ever published in England, or, we believe, awl
other country. It was one great cause of the 140
American war; it instigated, tea, and justified the
cold-blooded murders committed is France after the
restoration of the Bourbons; it justified the massacre
of the Protestants at Nimes; it fairly drove the Be-
vernmest to that act of terrible severity, the hasgieg of
poor Cashman ; it has bees the most merciless raffia,
of a print that ever dared to show its face In a Chris-
tiio country. It is strange, therefore, thatlir. Hosts
should have a partiality for this print. We would
here refer our raiders to as 'elide is Moraing
Chronicle of this day; Is the sentiments of which, we
perfectly concur. But we have to add, that the asser-
tion which he makes respecting the circulation of
The Old Times newspaper compared with others, is
destitute of truth. It is not the number of papers
which it publishes is e reek ; bat the somber that it
publishes is say one day of that week. It is noto-
rious, then, that The Old Times is surpassed in this
respect by The Observer, which, we believe, publishes
three times its number, or thereaboots. It is perfectly
notorious, also, that it ie greatly surpassed is ambers
by The John Bull. It is surpassed is numbers alas by
Cobbett's Register ; and, as to readers; as to persons
likely to look at the Government Advertisements, or
any advertisements respecting contracts, or property
of any sort, we will venture to say, that an advertise.
meat once inserted in The Politied Register must be
as useful as an insertion of the same advertisement in
The Old Times newspaper fifty times. Tke MorNiag
Chronicle may be under The Old Times le poist of
numbers; bat is point of intelligent readers, and
readers of property, we should suppose it to surpass it
at least ten-fold. The Old Time' newspaper circu-
lates amongst ignorant people. Amongst the dolt-
ish part of the community. The besotted part. It
circulates ner where where there is intelligence or
where there ii enterprise; and an advertisement osoe
inserted in The Chronicle must meet the eye of a great
many more persons who pay attention to what they
read, than in the paper so extolled by Mr. Hums, who
will find himself very much deceived if be Woks that

disgusting than any of those official jobs which he km
se meritoriously exposed to the aohnedrersions of
the country. We concur fully la the opinion of the
aremiele, that, if Mr. Hume wish to render his ef-
forts eScieat be most refreia from Wahl him-
self up with the partnership of this newspaper

well.infornsed man in the kingdom. We beg
ORE readers to remember, that, some time sga
the Old Times newspaper said "if some lade-
" ponds,' member of Parliament should, ltrand-by,
" make a motion, relative to the °overman' :raver.
" tisements, we shall, then, if drawn forth is this
" measser, show to the public what our sale is." Oar
readers will determine for themselves how the Old

the corporation will take in consequence of this
motion of Mr. Hums. If this piper has saga-
city in nothing else, it seems to Lave had wonder
gal sagacity in penatratiag the isteadont of Mr.
Hums.

ESSEX COUNTY MEETINO.
We have been able to give only an abridgement of
the proceedings of this Meeting which we forted re.
ported in great detail in The Morning Cif011444,
while, in Mr. Hvata's favourite paper, t►ere is devoted
to this meeting, to this important meeting, hardly
any space at all, while whole columns are filled
with rubbishing stuff of no interest at alt compa-
ratively speakleg to the couatry at large. At
this Meeting, something rather cations interred,
and we shall notice it in a very brief weer.
The meeting resolved that taxation was the great
canape/ shadiest's,. A boy, it appears, was in from
of the Tows Hall, senior " C•l4ett'r Arrives
" Irffe's Friend." Prom this position he was, it is
stated, " IOVII driven ky order of the Megistralse."
This pamphlet is islieried, to prove,. sad does prove,
that taxation is the same of the distress. Why,
therefore, did the Megistretee order the boy to be
driven step! What authority had they to do this?
How came the persons present to suffer the boy to be
driven away? This one eireatostance shows, that
though threttfeertbs of the farmers In Base: are it
as Mr. Wirriest eaya. that town, is set yet
plashed enough. Mr. Warritatib as eat renders will

stood that the Prophet hod boon anticipated, not only
by Mr. Locke, bat by the elder Pats., who bad peti-
tioned against his son's Bill. Now, as to Mr. Laces,
be never treated of any suc► subject. He sever bad
or could have is contemplation any cireamstauces re-
sembling in the most distant degree the circumstances
of this our day. And as to Sir Rosie? Piet., surely
the Long Island Prophet could not have ►orrowed
from him, seeing that his petition against his son's
Bill took place in 1819, while the Long Island
Prophet had been describing in detail, the ef.
feels of any such Bill ; while he had been doing
this, once a mouth at the least, from 1811 to that
very year 1819 ; and particularly is his letter to
Tianszt, written in July, 1818, and published in
England is September, 1818.—We have no objection
that Mr. Wearies should have credit for the good he
is endeavouring to do now ; but we have great ob-
jection to his doing any thing that shall tend to take
from others the credit due to them. This is a great
quesdoe. It is far beyond any thing merely personal.
The final decision of it is now approaching and it is
right that every one should bare his due.

Paris papers to the 6th instant have arrived. The
Joined da Detait contains what it states to he a
faithful translatiou of the famous Turkish Note of the
28th Feb., the existence of which the &Ilia Gazette
denied. That which ae had previously received seems
to be the form of the official reply addressed equally
to all the Ambassadors; the introductory positions of
this, being addressed personally to Gard Sivogford,
is filled with %justification of the Turkish Government
for the step then takes. it is on the %hole more mode-
rate in its toss than the abstract already published.
The French Joisrnals bring fresh acconnts uf cones-
gracious la various provinces. Two farms in the
neighbourhood of Mantes were sa on fire last week.
The incendiaries. to the umber of seven or eight,
were seen and attacked by the inhabitants. Two
remained on the spot. one quit* dead sad the other
with a broken thigh but whilst the villagers were
gone to call in assistance, the accomplices of tie
wounded man returned, pet him to death, and man-
gled the fares of the two bodies in a manner which
made it impossible that they should be recognised.
The King's Aitorney and the Lieutenant of
Gendarmerie have since repaired to the spot to
take informations ea the subject of this daring and
mysterious outrage. On the 24 instant, a ►illa wasset
on fire at Andilly, near Montnsoreocy, and within five
or six linen of Paris. Three individuals have been
arrested on suspicion of ►eing concerned is this of-
fence, so that the real authors of this destructive sys-
tem will perhaps he at last discovered, and brought to
***digs pnaishment. The non-commissioned officer,
Sirejeaa, who was lately sentenced to death fur belog
implicated in the conspiracy of Heron, and in whose
behalf many solicitations were made, was shot at
Tours, on the morning of the 2d inst. He behaved
with mock resolution, keeping his eyes fixed on the
soldiers who levelled their muskets at him, and giv-
ing wilts a Ira tons the command to fire.
