lATUUDAT, ,T.UNV 41 1814.

The digcussion of Mr. METtivEN's Motion in the.
House of Commons, for an` Address' to the PRINCE
KeoErr, " praying that he would be graciously
plessed t?eequaint the House by whose advice he had
;11 ril .14uVla to form the unalterable resolution of
never meettni her ltoyal Highness the Ps incess of

The 'Petitions presented against the Corn Bill are
become so numerous, that very little doobt remains
of its being adjou►ned till the next Session ; and, in
the end, finally abandoned. Mr. WiIITBRE.6 pre-
sented
a Petition from Bedford, last night, against the
Bill, and candidlyadailtted, that, as a grower and con.
Sumer; he had approved of the measure, under a' con.
Tidier' that it was for the public good. He, however;
now thought, that under all circumstlnces, the subject
ought to tst. postponed for this Session ; .and we treat,'
that a majority of the Members will be of the same
opinion.—The following passage, which is taken
from the Sixth Report of the Committee on the high
price of provisions in 1800, will be found very ap...
plicable to the present question :
" The manner in which the commerce of Gribi
is carried on, has engaged no small proportion of
the Committee's attention ; but the information they
have hitherto obtained is far from being sufficient to
enable them to lay before the How

WAtat on any occasion, public or private," came on

. lad usigist... Weskits% to the discussion; the SPICAKER
• read a 'Getter from her Royal Highness, requesting

him to bsi before the Ilse the Correspondence-that l
had recently taken place, and expressing her appre-
tension, that there are ultimate objects in view,
eteenatit with danger to the security of the Succes-
,. fiiou, *rid the domestic peace of the. realm.;
As we expected, the Public were excluded from
tearing this discussion, at the soggeslion of a Minis-
terial Member ; but notwithstanding this anxious
care we are enabled to COMMUlliede the particulars
of it to our Readers. This exclusion thus enforced,
however, productive of inconvenience, answers, at
' least, this one good end, it emist convince every one,
*here the preponderance of argument was expected ,
to bleheard, and which party feared the impartial
judgment of the'peepte: It 'Fes an indigoes, bat is
very forcible eulogium on the Princess, and a very
• severe censure of her persecutors. The apprehers-
. noels of the excluders, as to the probable effect of the
Detati,4wils, from the sketch we have procured of it,
very well founded. Never, certainly, was the disparity
he/ Weert-eillocatell more correspondent to the different
• merits of their respective causes. Mr. BRAGGE
commenced his speech by telling the House
of Commons, that it was not within its province to
interfere in this case. This assertion is one of the
toblest, perhaps, that was ever made by any Minister.
We would beg to inform Mr. linxece BATHuRsT,
Gat the House oE Commons has a right to interfere
e !weever any of the institutions of the country ap-
p. ar to be perverted from the purpose for which they
were designed. The Court, with all its expensive
se.l36lishments, is designed to promote the public be-

statement or facts, much less any
ppitiibn raiatffartrefitatem. 'Vitoria

requires the attentive consideration
of existing laws, and a minute acquaL
extensive system of trade, together with all the vk.
riations which have taken place, either by the au-
thority of the Legislature, or by changes of
practice resulting from an alteration in the ha-
bits of the people, or from the growth of com-
merce and the increase of wealth. 'l'l►e subject also
is of a nature wt►ich requires peculiar caution, from
the danger which might attend an erroneous judg-
ment, misled on the one hand by popular prejudice,
or on the other by plausible theories, formed with-
out sqllicient examination of facts."
•

bated alike by reason and prudence.,
Cordova and Seville hove distitsgaished themselves
by theirleagerness to re-establish the ancient system,
before they knew the King's mind. The Tribunal of
the Inquisition had been triumphantly installed by
the Andalusians. This premature step gave rise to
the above circular. There is nothing determined
with respect to the Tribunal of the Holy Office.—
lye only say, that the sentiments of Spaniards of all
classes are inimical to every Inquisition, civil or re-
►igious.

We have received, this morning, French Papers of
Wednesday last. They have at length annmrnced
the conclusion of Peace, but do not enter into par-
ticulars. The news from Madrid is interesting; and,
we are happy to perceive, that the affairs of .Spain
are likely to he brought to an amicable conclusion :-•••••
