LONDON:
WitINESDILT MNINO, iVNE !7, 1821.

The &logic of Commons was occupied last night, in
too disenssions which bad for their object the ame-
!";ration of the states of two large and different pm--
t.e.rs of mankind. The one was occasioned by the
-ntion of Mr. M txwett., that an Address to the King
!' ) nl.l be presented, praying for the appointment of
a Commission to he sent to New Llnark, to examine
i•-to the condition of the w.aking classes there, and
to inquires into any fnrther arrangement proposed by
Mr. Owen for the benefit of the working classes at
.arge. With respect to the character and outline of
.tir. Owit•ett establishment, and of the manlier in whirl'
proposed to estend and apply his plans to more
!.ctenr-iveand promisenotis portions of the community,
the information which the real of this pnblic spirited
et tletnan had furni:Led, has seen so diffw,ive and com-
plete as render any Anther illostration unnecessary.
Lenerolent as his views toquestionably are, and
excellent as are the results of his arrangements
at the place of his residence, he has not hitherto had
the good fortune to impress the public with the opinion
that his plans are either practicable or proper to be

trird on the larger orale for which he has proposed
tbr-n. In this feeling the Honse apprami so gi-nerally
Ti' coincide that no division was called fur, and the
rnr.tion wan negatived. That many gentlemen who
witness the good order and felicity that prevail at
New Lanark should wish to see the like preaorninatr
in other seats of mennfactnre, which are often the
abodes of vier and wretchedness, we are not at all
tmtrr:sed. That the Magistrates of the vicinity, and
recta professors of a neighbonring University
should recommend the means by which these good

efee's Lave been produced ire are not astanished.—
There is no sentiment which the higher classes in
Scotland are more anxiong to cultivate among the

hwer than that of subordination. This. if we mis-
take cut. is a ferling whir h the plans of Mr. Owrsr
are directly calculated to produre, and which ren-

sl.rs it so ill calculated for extensive and prel
miscuens society. It is that which ro emi-!
nently recommends it for adoption in a Work-.;
but which renders it as decidedly unsuitable
tg: Englishmen in general. It operates directly against i
t • r genius and character of the people—against " that i
ir.dependeure which." the poet says, " Britons prire
too high," and is hich "keeps man from man, and
Creaks the social tie." While less exceptionable
r::e:►ns of reform remain to be resorted to, wy have no
d.tire to try this wholesale plan of revolution-
izing society. What certain individnals might gain
by its operation, would be more than counter-
1-r.lanced by the consequences of the amalgamation.
When. personal independence becomes obliteilAted.
and the spirit of individuals eonfoended in a
reneral niass, the safeguards of all civil liberty arc
truken &lens and the people f an easy conquest
t the inroads of political despotism.—'The other
chkrt to irLich we alluded as engaging the attention
of ;hr Ilonse was introduced by Mr. Wit.ricurOt:ce. on
the abominable prevalence of the Slave Trade. The too-
ton with which he concluded a very interesting speech,
and which was carried unanimously, was similar in
f,:rm and effect to that voted the preceeding tight In
the !loose of Lords.

By the mail from Vienna, letters have been re-
c. ised from Constantinople and Smyrna up to the 25th
ult., the former city had become more tranquil, in con-1
sequence of the confererces that had taken place be.
tr.een the different diplomatic individuals and the
Porte. Lc rd Strangford was so well satisfied with tie
altered state of the place, that }e had suffered Lady
Strangford to return. lii' Lordship had his public
audience of the ([rand Vizier on the 19th, and
of the Grand Seignor on the 22d of May. Lady
Strangford accompanied her husband in male attire.
and although tl:e streets through which they passed
were throged with people to witness the procession,
not the sasollest disorder took place. The detention
of the vessels laden with grain coming from the Black
Sea, was considered less on account of any real want
in the capital, than with the view of preventing sup-
plies helot carried tothe direhipelaro Islands, several
