BARMY, D. D. Rector of St. Leonard, and St. 'Mary, Wallingford, Berks. The Rev. Doctor dwelt with peculiar force and elinineeee on the general objects of the Institution, and particularly on its suc cessful efforts in cases of ir.teuded suicide, many unfoi Unita persons, both male and female, having been restored, net on:y to life, but to peace of mind, who, in a moment of desperation, had attempted to rush unprepared into the presence of their Goa. He observed, that the Society's purposes were alike interesting to the rich, to the poor, to sm., of whatever deocriititan or class of mankind, inasmuch as, in the dispensations of that PROVID/NCE with whoth are the issues of life and death, it might happen that some near relative or friend of any one who heard him, might become the subject of the exertions which this Society sought to elicit, encourage, and reward; for no ere of sudden or apparent death was incompatible with its objects, whether from apoplexy, drowning, suffocation, noxious ai s, suspension by the cord, lightning, cc the desperate attev,pt of a suicide. By the exertions of the Royal Hurna.ne Society, thousands, the subjects of these various farms of apparent death, Lad been rescued, who must otherwise have perished, and to sellouts the Society presents a Bible, and also suitable rcligicus book.. The Rev. Doctor paid a just tribute to the nitmory of the Founders of Ole Society, and especially acknowledged, in some eloquent allusions to :he character and virtues of our late veoetable and beloved Sovereign, the invaluable patronage whsh. bn so long extended over this Ins:in:dor.

SPAIN. The preceding Pcoclarnation of FERDINAND was, as we are. assured, transmitted to this country in a letter of the 15th instnnt. It is without date; or any of the usual accompaniments of an authentic document. It may, howerer, be genuine; but, if it be, some of its topiss are but ill chosen. Are those who have taken the lead in endeavours to emancipate the Colonies from the most galling oppression, likely to be conciliated by receiving the opprobrious epithets—" ambitious men" —" promoters of the horrors of allarthr—te unprincipled despoilers"—" unknown- adventurers"—.. " foreign intruders"—" men who divide but to dominate?"  The Paris Papers of Sunday arrived this morning. They contain no accounts from Spain; and the Censors have taken care that they'shall tontahl muffing domestic worth repeating abroad. ' The Project respecting the Financial Accounts of ISIB, passed in the Chamber of Deputies, was on Saturday presented to the Chamber of Peers. In the Deputies, on the same day, the discussion' was begun and adjourned of a new Project of Law respecting the Customs. Some English Nobleman has bad a private audience of the KING ; but such are the queer distortions which his name has undergone in the hands of the Parisian Journalists, that we really cannot tell who the illustrious personage may be. One Journal says it is a "Lad Brawmille ;" another, "Baron de Brown-Mill;" a third, " Lord Lir*" (Lord Brown-Blue). Five per cents. Saturday, 741.95 c.  Letters from Berlin, of the 14th instant, state, that on the preceding day a tumult of a very formidable nature occurred in that city. About 300 individuals, of the working-classes (by. what motives impelled or by whom instigated, is not known) suddenly made an attack on thvgyard-house, which was oceupied at the time by not more than thirty soldiers. It was not till two or three detachments of the military had been brought against them that the In*Tents were reduced to submission, when several of the ringleaders were secured' and thrown into prison. The same afternoon, Baron de HUMBOLDT had an audience of the Kum, which lasted three lours. By letters of the 16th, from the same place, we learn that M. JAHN has been sentenced to imprisonment for life, by the Court appointdi to try him; but that the Kixe, in recollection Of former services, has remitted the punishment to imprisonment for ten years, and subsequent banishment from the Prussian territory.

ROME, JULY 30.  After being long without information respecting the situation of the Pope, we now receive accounts which directly contradict one day what we heard on the preceding. Under the date of the 26th we have the following. Notwithstanding the satisfactory re. ports that are in circalation respecting the health of his Holiness we are not without considerable apprehentions on his account. It cannot be dissembled that the physicians have to deal with an infirm old man. now in the 84th year of his age, who besides has long suffered from a double fracture, and whose legs are beginning to swell for want of exercise. It seems, that the Pope himself begins to be sensible of the danger of his situation, at least if he intends, as it is reported, to issue three Bulls to the following effect : —The first, for holding the approaching Conclave in the Palace of the Quirinal, in which he resides, and not, as is the custom, in the Vatican. The second, for the regulation of his funeral. The third, to confirm all persons in office in their several employments, till his successor shall have taken possession of the papal chair. All these dispositions shew- the man of a strong mind and the paternal Sovereign. As matters now stand, a Consistory is not to be thought- of, notwithstanding the urgent desire of several new Bishops, especially from Naples, who find a long residence in Rome expensive, and ardently wish to be with the flock entrusted to their care.  Under the date of to-day we are .informed, that the health of his Holiness has considerably improved within these few days. BRUSSELS, AUGUST 14 _  Notwithstanding the various repot is respecting the causes of the late fire in the Hotel of the Finances, and of the unfortunate death of M. Dekin, the official Journal defends that Gentleman's memory from the accusation of having been deficieqt in his accounts and of having committed suicide. It declares that the surgeons who opened the body found no indication of poison whatever. Whether the fire was caused by his imprudence, and his agitation brought on a fit of apoplexy while he was going to call assist, ance, is another question, on which the investigation making by the Police may throw some light.

COM BARON O'GRADY.  'Nit. RICE moved the Order of the Day, that the I touhe should resolve itself into a Committee upon the. conduct of the Chief Baron of the Exchequer (Ireland). Mr. C. H. HUTCHINSON was astonished at the conduct of: his Honourable Friend, in pressing forwat d that question in the then state of the House, and in the absence of sever al Honourable and Learned Members, who had given notice of their opposition to the motion. He (Mr. HutchinSon) would oppose' the Speaker's leaving the Chair. Mr. S. RICE begged pardon for interrupting his Ilonourabe Friend. He was by no means anxious to take ad vAntage of the absence of any Honourable Member, or to press the question forward ; but :saving been charged repeatedly with delay, it was  quite evident that ifhe did not seize that opportunity, when there was nothing else before the House, he should. lay himself open to a similar char^e then. However,. if any HonOurable Gentleman objected to his proceeding. with thehnsiness, he would give way. Sir .1. NEWPORT defended the conduct of his Honourable Friend (Mr. Rice), and said, that at that late period of the Sescinn great inconvenience and hard,Lip occurred to I lonourable Members who did ante J to their Parliamentary duty, in consequence •of the non-attendance Of other Honourable Members, to accommodate whom the public business was obliged to be postponed. • After a few words from Mr. C. 11. IluTcniNsoN, Mr. Rice withdrew his motion.  The Labour of Convicts Bill, the Larcenies .(Beiefit of Clergy) Bill, the Capital Punishments Repeal Bill, the Felonies (Benefit of Clergy) Bill, the Sentence of Death Bill, and the Felo de Se Bill, were severally forwarded through their respective stages, and ordered to be read a third time on Wednesday next.

FRONTIERS OF ITALY., NOVEMBER T. The Barbary States have received orders from the Divan to equip 'without delay view ships of War, and to have them ready to be employed as the Porte shall require. This order excites surprise, as the season is come when naval expeditions are generally Considered as ended. The divisions of Alperine and other Barbary vessels, which have beets long with the.Tarkish fleet; are still under the command of the Captain Pacha, who has been obliged, .by .aa.tirder from the Porte, not to proceed on his 3 cturn .to the Dardanelles, but to sail again to the Archipelago.

SIR CHARLES • 13AMFYLFIE.• •  yesterday afternoon A. &esti ful attempt at assassina • followed by immediate suicide, took place in the fteiAboathood of Portman-square, which excited I • rest warm and horror. It appears that Sir Cu ARLES Lows has had in his service, as housekeeper, ! during the last eight years, the wife of a man of the I name of Joseph Morley. This person has often been very troublesome to Sir CHARLES, and so frequently called attliehonse and created disturbance, that the servants were ordered to refuse him admittance in future. Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock, Morley called at No. 1, Montague-square, the resic?elice of Sir Dwain, and inquired for him. 'The servant vho opened the door ordered him to go about his business, and on his refusal endeavoured to force hint from the door; he then struck at the servant, nor was h until some other person came to his assistance that he was enabled to make him quit the house.— Morley then went down the square and inquireA of a woman, who keeps a fruit-stall at the corner of Moe-street, if she had seen Sir Cuattr,Ls I:AmYrtnE pass? The woman had scarcely replied in the negative, when Sir CHARLES came up ; Morley, on seeing him, instantly drew from under his coat a double barrelled pistol, and shot Sir CHARLES BAMEYLDE in the side; and almost before he had fallen be discharged the secbnd pistol into his own mouth. The ball passed through his head; and he instantly fell dead on the pavement. Sir CHARLES, thegt:ll seriously, if not mortally wounded, was enabled to reach home, stemming the wound with his handkerchief. On enquiry this forenoon, we find that the ball has net been extracted, and that Sir CHARLES, who is between 50 and 60 years of age, is not considered out of danger. The body of Morley was conveyed to the Worcester Arms, 13(mm:in-street, where it remains in an apartment which is locked up and sealed, until the Coroner's Inquest shall he held. 3,:alousy is said to have been the cause of this dreadful act.  islag' g re 'row ok is ft the as b ,arse of co EDP rq ly.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.  BOW-STREET.  DISTRIESUPG Case.—Last evening, a man about fifty years o age, named Gregory, of very respectable appearance, was brought before the Magistrate, charged by Skinner, one of the Inspectors of Hawkers and Pedlars Licenses, with hawking books without a license. The prisoner was brought before the Bench handcuffed, and his agitation was so great as to excite the attention of all who saw him. Skinner stated that he saw the prisoner yesterday afternoon, with parcels of books under his arm, can at several houses in Oxfordstreet, and offer them for sale. The books consisted chiefly of pamphlets published by Mr. Virtue, of Ivyiane, Newgate Marker. The prisoner made great resistance, and after he was taken to the watch-house, he attempted to commit suicide by hanging himself with a handkerchief to the iron bars of the window of the cell in which he was confined. The prisoner in his defence said he was merely going from house to house to solicit orders for Mr. Virtue, and not for the purpose of vending the publications which he with him, and which he merely had to show as specimens. He implored the mercy of the worthy Magistrate, and said that be had fined a highly respectable situation in society, but had been compelled by circumstances to adopt this calling. He had been married U years ; his wife was then lying ill at home, mid it was for her sake that he had commenced his present occupation. The Magistrate said that however he might lament the unfortunate situation of the prisoner, he must take the evidence of the informer Skinner, and it was his painful duty to convict him in the penalty of 110. The prisoner was then ordered to pay 110, and in default was committed to the House of Correction. He left the Office weeping bitterly, and calling out, “ 0, my wife! my poor wife—what will become of her!" He was conveyed to prison.
