BREvtTY OF SpEECH--A HINT TO MEM!
BEERS OF CONGRESS.

The Paris correspondent of the National Intel
ligencer, giving some account of the proceedings
in the House of Commons of England, says that,
after long speech from the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, i" Mr.. Brotherton, who loses no op-
portunity to demand brevily and despatch, added
"The remarks which had fallen from the right
honorable gentleman, the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer, brought to his mind an anecdote of
Queen Elizabeth. That good Queen had, on one
OCCASION, sent down a message to her faithful
Commons, admouishing them not to consume so
much time in long speeches and motions [Cheers

send down similar message to that House

and, for his own part, he should be the first to
join in vote of thanks to her Majesty for her

and our ship news collector informs us that he,
on Monday, watched their maneuvres for some
time, off the Light Ship. One of them blowed

feet of his back out Of water. An old salt,''
who is acquainted with the peculiar habits and
