(The sums now voted are 850,000 for the Civil List of England, and 200.000 for Ireland. These sums are indepen¬ dent of the revenue derived From Scot¬ land, the hereditary revenues of the Crown in Ireland, Droits of the Crown and Admiralty, the produce of the 4 1*2 per cents Leeward Islands duties and the revenues from the Duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster.) The distress of the country, and the languor and debilitv under which com¬ merce and manufactures droop, have di¬ rected the minds of commercial men deeply interested and profoundly ac¬ quainted with the interests of trade to the System by which our commercial connections wifti foreign countries are regulated. It has been suggested, that the evils of which we complain might, by a change in our system, be alleviated, if not removed ; and Petitions have been presented to Parlaimc.it by the Men. graciously pleased to order accounts to chants of (he Metropolis, and other com¬ be laid -before the house, of all salaries, pensions, and allowances, which have been made to foreign minsters within the last ten years. The motion was carried in the affirmative, without any observa¬ tions. r»Ir.

In the view taken by that Honourable Gentleman on tills subject, the House seemed generally to concur.

A paragraph in the Gazette do Frnocc states, that the equi¬ pages of the Queen of England passed through Ghent oft the Gth of this month, on the way to Brussels.

It is staled in a morning paper that the interviews between the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Governors of the*Bank have terminated in an under¬ standing on the part of the latter, that the five millions are to be paid off, in the course of this year, according to promise. From the Liverpool Advertiser ojMay 15 The proceedings in the new Parliament begin to assume a very interesting cha¬ racter. The debates on the droits of the Grown displayed a great deal of profound investigation on the part of Mt- Brough¬ am, and of accuse judgment on the part of his opponent, Mr. Canning. The for¬ mer contended that these funds, in their application, gave an undue influence to the servants of the Crown, and that they oughttobeat the disposal of Filament ; while the latter held that they formed, in effect;, p ^jixt AfXKf J&opal pfipaMU&rtBj and that the Crown could not be depriv¬ ed of them without being shorn of part of its rightful lustre. The division of the House, which was the first fair trial of strength in the new Parliament, exhibit- «d on the side of the Ministers, 27.1 voles, and on the opposition Side of flu House 155, giving a majority agninst Mr. UroughanVs motion of 118. There was, however, in the contest, something of the nature of a drawn battle ; for Ministers, though they would not concede the point of placing the vast sums accruing from the Admi:vlfy Droits at the dispo-'ni ol Parliament, did consent that an account of the way in which they were disposed of, from time tfl time should,in future, he Jaid annually before that a>scmuly. This vc hold to be an Important concession, and a practical reform cf great public utilriy. Another question closely aUteu to this is, the discussion on the civil List. This subject was brought in some degree un¬ der the consideration of Parliament on Monday last, by a motion of the Chan¬ cellor of the Exchequer, that the resolu¬ tions for fixing the amount and prescrib¬ ing the nature of the regulations to w hlcli it should be subject, should then be read* On tho opposite side of the House a de- Jay of a week wzs asked by Lord John Jlus.'cU, to afford time to consider whe¬ ther some offices to which salaries were attached out of that fund might not be abolished from the change of the times— such as the Groom of the Stole, the Mas¬ ter -of the Hawks, and others. This delay, short as it was, Ministers did not think proper to grant. Having refused almost every kind of information upon tlie subject, they now seem inclined to precipitate the resolutions through the House, with an uncalled for rapidity, and an idea of indecorum is wished to be attached even to the discussion of the subject. It is one of the most singular features in this provision for the Crown. thalthcQueeniswhoi!) lost sight oft hough ihe chancellor of the exchequer has inti¬ mated, in answer to inquiries, that a se¬ parate proviso, will be made for her Majesty. The Civil J.ist debat- was con¬ ducted with great spirit and animation, and the pt ooomc) J'tay of a week \\r\s negalivd by a majority of 246 to 1 r*7.

The petition was received, and the impression made on the House' on this occasion was cer¬ tainly very powerful. On Tuesday night, Mr. Alderman Wood brought forward his motion for a Secret Committee to inquire into the treasonable practices alleged against Edwards the spy. The motion was re¬ jected without a division, but the worthy Alderman pledged him&Wi" to follow up the investigation by prosecuting Ed¬ wards for Ilijih Treason at his own ex¬ pense ; and from the observations made by Ministers upon this promise, there seems no reason t^> fear the enquiry will be stifled by a noli pros qui.

In high glee with his good fortune, he ha.i taken a large fr.rm, (locked it well, and has given a handfome portion with his tiller, who has married a young man to whom fee ha9 long been attached.

Thistlewood then went abroad for several years, and, by gaming, diffipa- ted the property lie had acquired- On his return to England, he married his present wife, the daughter of a respectable butcher, at Horncaftle.

A sort of fatality seems to be affachotl to the princes who have borne the title of duke de Berri. Twelve princes of this name figure in the history of France^ and almost ail of them closed their lives in an unfortunate manner, and without leaving behind them any male posterity. The Cprri, of which the city of ttour- fes was theceapital, was peopled by the ancient Beturges, inhabitants of Gaul, and for a long time formidable Co the Ro¬ mans. The last count dn Berri, Herpin of Aquifainc, sold his domains in 1094 to king Philip first, for the purpose of join¬ ing the fits? crusade. He was taken prisoner by the Saracens, hut escaped and returned to France, and for want of any means of support, became a monk. Philip, the father of Louis 6th, called the Fat, who first freed the common* from the insupportable yoke of the lords, was nitlicted during the whole of his rei^n by the excommunications of the court o( Rome and the Bishops, w ho absolved his subjects from their oaths of fidelity. It was not until the year tgfl 1, ei*;ht years after the deplorable battle ofPnic- tiers, and four years after the shameful treaty of Breligny, that king John, de¬ livered from prison, erected Berri into a duchy, and gave the title of it to John, tlie third of his children, whojs repre¬ sented in history as the tyrant of Lm- ^uedoc and Ouyenne, which were under his government. Tins duke de Berri, who was very ea¬ ger in thr> pursuit of wealth, one of the uncles of Charles Gth, disputed the re¬ gency with his two brothers during the minority of this prince, and entered into the disastrous quarrels of the houses ol Burgundy and Orleans, at the time of Charles's insanity. The constable Gliseon, and the ad¬ miral John of Vienna, had prepared a formidable expedition against England, which was defeated by John duke d< Berri, who had been gained over by mo¬ ney Irom Richard second. John, first duke de Berri, died, after several disgraces, the 15thof June, with¬ out leaving any male children. He left a widow. By n former marriage he had three sons, who all died in infancy.
