IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Wednesday, May 8.—The petition of Col. Col- brooke's widow, mentioned in our London lettsr, was rejected. Mr, Brougham rose to ask leave to bring in a Bill for the better securing and extending the Liberty of the Press. He said the Bill would go to three points, namely, to enable the truth to be given in evidence in cases of libel, though not pleaded as a justification; to restrain the practice of ex-officio information; and to the regulation of special juries. The Attorney and Solicitor Generals would not object to the bringing in the Bill, but pledged them- selves to oppose it. Leave wa$> then given. On the motion of the further consideration of the Report of the Bank Restriction Bill, 11 Mr. Horner moved a clause, to order that the Directors of the Bank should, without delay, take such steps, as may enable them to resume cash payments as soon after the passing of this Act, as might, in their judgments, be practicable and safe, The Chancellor of the Exchequer opposed the clause; and the House divided-For the clause 32 -Against it 135. The Local Militia Ballot Bill, and the Irish Clerk of the Pleas Bill, went through d. Committee, and was ordered to be reported to-morrow. Thursday, May 9.—A variety of petitions were presented and laid on the table against the Leather Tax, the Poors' Bill, &c. Lord G. Beresford communicated to the House, tha.t the Prince Regent had been waited on with the Address of Congratulation of the House on the marriage of the Princess Charlotte, to which his Royal Highness had returned a most gracious answer. Colonel Wood gave notice, that he should move for a Committee to enquire into the propriety of legalizing the sale of game. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, in reply to a question of Lord Stanley, relative to the liability of houses, formerly dwelling-houses, but now used as only manufactories, to be taxed as dwelling-houses, 9iid, he had no hesitation in saying, such houses did not come within the meaning of the Act.— (Hear, hear.) Mr. Hammersley wished now to ask the Noble Lord, whether there was any intention of taking steps to recover any part of the large sum, not less than 13,000,0001. due from Austria to this country and if there was any such intention, at what period it would be carried into effect. Lord Castlereagh said he had no answer to give. Mr. flamtnersley then gave notice that he should on the 2Sth bring forward a motion on the subject. Lord Althorpe rose to bring forward his promised motion for the repeal of the Leather Tax. The Noble Lord stated the general distress of the manufacturers in this branch of commerce; and those distresses, he said, were attributal to the restrictions imposed on the trade and the absence of a free exportation of that article. The Noble Lord concluded by moving accordingly. Mr. W. Smith believed that the restrictions im- posed by the Excise Laws on the manufacture of leather were extremely injurious to the manufac- ture itself, a* well as troublesome and vexatious to the persons engaged in it. Mr. Vansittart contended that the revenue would Hot admit of a repeal of the tax but he had no ob- jection for an enquiry into what could be done, with a view to afford relief; and, for this purpose, pioved an amendment, for the appointment of a Committee to consider the state ot the revenue ar- Tising from leather, and the. best means of retain- ing the same with the smallest degree of inconve- nience. Mr. Thompson complained of the restrictions, and observed that the tax fell most unequally; the poor man who wore heavy shoes, paying for them by the pound, while the man of fashion, in light pumps, almost escaped. (A laugh.) Mr. Cartwright thought that the revenue would be improved by removing the restrictions, and al- lowing a free trade. a Mr. Phillips thought the House ought to ac- quiesce in the motion, unless the Chancellor of the Exchequer would state, that his object was to relieve the trade from restrictions. The Chancellor of the Exchequer stated, that his object in a Committee would be to see how to raise a. revenue on leather without the aid of restrictions, and he should go into the Committee with every tvish to accomplish such an object. Mr. F. Lewis said the Leather Tax was so objec- tionable, both from the restrictiiinsWlrltn were ne- cessary f°r levying it, and from the inequality which attended its distribution, that no other way of collecting the same extent «f revenue could be devised which would not be an improvement. Lord Milton and Mr. Marryatt both spoke in favour of the original motion. After a short reply from Lord Althorpe, the House divided, for the motion —j"or the Com* mittee 121. Friday, May 10.—Mr. Littleton gave notice that he should on the 30th May submit a motion to the House on the evil tendency of Lotteries. In a Committee, of Supply the different Irish Grants were agreed to. The House went into a Committee on the Malt Duty Bill, in which some amendments were made. Mr. Calvert noticed some deficiencies in the Bill, particularly on the clause in respect to the making of malt; in the course of which, he objected to the duty of five per cent. on pale malt, and moved an amendment, by substituting the word one." The Chancellor of the Exchequer said, the object of the clause was, to relieve the maltster from the pressure of the duty already paid. Mr. Barclay observed, that the duty of 2s. 8d. was laid on at the precise time in which it was now proposed to be taken off. With respect to the clause affecting the gauging of malt, he must admit that the maltster would be relieved by it. Mr. Harvey could not assent to the proposition ot the Right Hon. Gent., because he was convinced it would tend to the prejudice of the maltster. Mr. Brand was of the same opinion. The Committee then divided on the amendment -Ayes, 38; Noes, ô8-Majority against the amend- ment, 30. On the second reading of the Alien Bill, Lord A. Hamilton observed, that the first cause for passing an Alien Bill was so contrary to the present princi- ¡ ples upon which the House was called upon to pass it, that be felt his duty to oppose the second reading, and should, therefore, move as an amend- ment, that it be read a. second time on that day three months. This motion caused along and animated discus- sion, in. which Mr. Brougham, Sir S. Romilly, Mr. Horner, and Sir J. Mackintosh eloquently opposed the Bill; the latter concluded a long speech in the following words The effect of the Bill, if adopted, would be to abrogate the whole policy of the kingdom from Magna. Charta downwards.-— They would shut on foreign sufferers and refugees, that city of refuge, which had hitherto been kept open for them in all the calamities of Europe; and instead of the boast, that this country possessed the power of enfranchising the slave who sets his foot on it, we should hereafter be left to the boast, that it had the power of enslaving the free." Mr. Jones opposed the Bill, and stated, at some length, the reasons why he differed from the Gen- tlerneri with whom he usually voted. The Bili was ably and strongly supported by Mr. H. Addington, the Attorney and Solicitor Generals, and Lord Castlereagh, who defended it on grounds of general policy. Lord C. said, the Legislature ought to confide to Ministers the power of defend- ing the country from the danger of adniitting an influx of foreigners; and the more especially as it appeared the common law did not very clearly give such a power to the Executive Government to prevent improper foreigners from intruding them- selves into this country. The House then divided-For the second reading, 141-Against it, 47. 'If

Memorable Anecdote.—At the battle of Waterloo, Miijor of the 42d Highlanders, preferring to 11 fight on foot in front of his men, had given his 1* horse to hold to a little drummer-boy of the regi. ment. After some hard fighting with the French horse cuirassiers and lancers, and receiving several severe wounds, he fell from loss of blood, near a brave private (Donald Mackintosh) of his corps, who was mortally wounded at the same instant.- The little drummer had left the horse to assist poor Donald; a lancer seeing the horse thought him a fair prize, and made a dash at him this did not escape the watchful and keen eye of the dying Highlander, who, with all the provident spirit of his country," ruling strong even in death," groaned out hoot mon, ye munna, ta.k' that beast, 't be- longs to our Captain here." The lancer, under- standing little of his dialect, and respecting less his writhing gestures, seized un the horse; Donald levelled his musket once more, shot him dead, and the next moment fell back and expired himsclf.- An oflicer of the cuirassiers, observing our poor Major still bestirring himself, rode up, and stoop- ing from his charger, aimed to dispatch him with his sword. The Major seized his leg, and still grappled with him so stoutly, that he pulled him off his horse upon him. Another lancer observing this struggle, galloped up to relieve his officer, and attempted to spear the Major, who, by a sudden jerk a.nd exertion, placed the Frenchman, in the nick of the necessity, in his arms before him, who received the mortal thrust below his cuirasse, and in this condition continued lying upon him with his sword in his hand for near ten minutes. The Major, unconscious that he had received a death wound, expected all this time to receive his own at his hand; at last the French officer raised himself, ran or staggered a. few yards, and then fell to strug- gle or to rise no more. Another private of his re- giment now came up and asked his Major what he could do to assist him. Nothing, my good friend, but load your piece and finish me!—" But your eye still looks lively," said the poor fellow, "if (I could move you to the 92d, fighting hard by, I think yon would yet do well." With the aid of a fellow-soldier he was moved as the man proposed, and soon seen by an intimate friend, Col. Cameron, commanding the 92d, who instantly ordered him every succour possible a blanket and four men carried him a little in the rear. While they were raising him, Col. Cameron exclaimed," God bless you! 1 must be off; the devils (meaning the lancers) are at us again, I must stand up to them." He did so, a.nd in a few minutes, stretched dead on the bed of honour, finished his mortal career ot glory in the bold defence of his country. It is a pleasure to add, that the brave Major is stili a!ive, wearing the honourable decoration and marks of 16 wounds received in this unequal and arduous conflict, and lame from a severe wound received before at the storming of Badajoz. Daring Robbery on the river Thamcs.-Wednesday night, between the hours of nine and ten, one of the hoys belonging to the East India Company was proceeding down the river with upwards of twenty chests of dollars, in order to be put on board the La.dy Campbell outward-bound Indiaman lying at Gravesend when in Woolwich Reach they were boarded by seven men in a-large cutter, who over- powered the men on board the hoy, ani confined them under the hatchways; they immediately hove seven chests of the dollars into their boat and rowed off.—The dollars carried off are esti- mated to be worth 7,000l. Three of the gang have been taken into custody in the neighbourhood of Woolwich, and part of the stolen dollars found on them. They were taken to the Thames Police- office yesterday, and after a short examination were remanded until a future day, when a body of evi- dence will be brought against them. Extraordinary and daring outrage.—Thursday, at the Mansion-House, XotKlon, I. Nathan, 18 years of age, was charged with threatening the life of Mr. J. G. Genslin, a foreign merchant, of New- square, in the Minories, and with assaulting his person. The prosecutor deposed, that he had lately received two letters, informing; him that a plan was laid for his assassination but that if he would pay a certain sum he might avert the blow. To these he paid no attention. In the course of last week he was waited upon by the prisoner, who repeated the substance of the letters and the! dangerous situation in which his life was placed; offering, however, to remove him beyond the reach of his enemies for a. certain sum of money (we un- derstand 5001.) when he told the prisoner he would not give him a shilling. Witness heard nothing further until Monday last, when the prisoner was seen twice about the place in the morning. On one of these occasions he contrived to enter the counting-house in a disguised habit, and deliver a message to the clerk, stating that his presence was required at a. certain place in Holborn. This fabri- cation succeeded, and in a short time the witness was left alone in the counting-house, where the prisoner returned, accompanied by a youth. Hav- ing again repeated his account and solicited money, he was again denied when suddenly he laid hold of the witness and endeavoured to bind him down, while his companion attempted to stop his mouth with a handkerchief. They had proceeded thus far, when fortunately a bell rang loudly from the outside, and the parties fled from the house with precipitation. Information being soon after given to the Lord Mayor, Fogg, the Marshaiman, arrested the prisoner yesterday in Chamber-street, Good- man's-fields. The testimony of Mr. Genslin was partly confirmed by his clerk, who also proved the hand-writing of the prisoner; who, in his defence, said, his intention was merely to borrow a. few pounds," without injuring the prosecutor—He was: fully committed, Ifarcl Times.'—Cherries made their first appear- ance this season on Tuesday, in Covent-garden market. They were sold at the moderate price of two guineas and a half per lb. There is now at Howden, in Yorkshire, a Work- ing Society of young ladies, who meet every Thurs- day evening during the winter half year, for the benevolent purpose of making cloathing for the children of the poor in Howden, of materials pro- cured by subscription among themselves and others, who admire their labours of charity; and during this season they have furnished to the poor, gratis, nearly 400 articles of cloathing. By an account laid before Parliament the price of gold in bars and coin, on the 26th April, was 41. per ounce; silver in bars 5s. 1td.; and dollars 4s. llfd. The course of Exchange was, Hamburgh 35. 10.; Lisbon 57-J.; Paris, one day's date, 25. 6U.; 4. at Usance 25. 80. The highest aggregate amount of Batik Notes in circulation from the 1st of February, 1815, to the 29th of April, 1816, both inclusive, were 39,577,3301. and the lowest aggregate amounts, from the Is!: of February, 1815, to the 29th of April, 1816, both in- inclusive, were 24,048,3301. An Account laid before the House of Commons, states the number of persons prosecuted for forg- ing and uttering, or having, or having in their pos- session forged notes of the Bank »f England, for the last four years, as follows: In 1812, 61 per- sons; 1813, 65 persons; 1814, 47 persons; and in 1815, 63 persons. A return to an order of the House of Commons states the total number of debtors committed to prison in Ireland, withia the last five years, at 17,785. Civil List.—The Bill for the better regulation of the Civil List enactsr that the Treasury may appoint an Officer to controul and examine the accounts, who shall have power to summon persons, call for books and vouchers, and examine upon oath. The Treasury is to prepare instruc- tions for the guidance of this Officer, who is not to sit in Parliament. There is added to the Bill,a schedule* which consists of an estimate of the probable future annual charge on the Civil List, and shews the appropriation of the sum of 1,083,7271. for the payment of the charges made respectively on each of the eight classes into which the List is divided. At Mr. Ilussel's farm, near Honston, the oxen are worked with a collar instead of a yoke; and it has been proved, that four oxen worked with a collar will do more, and with greater ease, than six oxen in a yoke. Therefore it is our interest as well as our duty to the cause of humanity, to make the experiment. Lusus Natura.—A few days since some fisher- men enclosed in their net, in Chester River, near Parkgate, an uncommonly curious non-descript aquatic animal. When caught, it immediately rolled itself up. In length, it is about six inches and a half, and in shape not unlike the variegated hairy caterpillar, called the Tailor." Its back is covered with a very fine dark hair, and small black prickly substances, resembling the pen-feathers on a,young bird. The hair on its sides is beautifully variegated, and the belly is of a light colour, ap- proaching to white. It ha.s 56 feet, and on each toot several black points, appearing as claws. The bead, in proportion to the body, is very small. A Blind Bargain.—J. Brown, a blind itinerant was indicted at the Cornwall Quarter Sessions, for stealing sundry articles of wearing apparel from Priscilla Arthur. The following was detailed in evidence by the prosecutrix She stated herself to be a widow, and had resided at St. Ives for about 16 years. About 12 months since, the prisoner cams to her house late in the evening, and begged to be accommodated with a bed. His request was granted, and finding his quarters agreeable, and his hostess obliging, he continued to lodge with her for four months. During this time he had so tar worked on her imagination with tales of the pleasures of an innerafjt Jffe, that she agreed to ac- company him on a tour, and accordingly they left St. Ives together. Having visited various parts of the country, they took a trip to Jersey, and at length took up their abode at Bristol, where they con- tinued for four months. By this time the prisoner wished to get rid of his companion--Imt thinking it right that he should be paid, for the ample in- structions he had given her in her new profession he took the opportunity of her absence to empty the box, which contained their joint stock of money and clothes, and left her to find her way back to Cornwall as she could. This she effected, and re- turned to St. Ives rather wiser than she left it, h iv- ing lost her clothes and 151. in Bank of Eugl tnd notes, which she had taken witti. her on commenc- ing her peregrination. A few weeks after she reo turned to St. Ives, she learnt th it her truant com- panion had beoii seen at Redruth, where taking a constable, she had him arrested, and found a band- box belonging to her, and a .green cloth pelisse, which she had hought at Jersey, and which the prisoner insisted had been paid for with his money. Guilty, and sentenced to 14 days imprisonment. BANKRUPTS from Saturday's Gazette. TO SURKENDETT AT GUILDHALL. S. Parker, Charles-street, Covent-garden, victualler, May 14, ai,.hn)e 22.—0.

The millers being mostly wi tholJt stock purchased freely at the early part ot this morning, and an advance of 6s. per quarter on the rates of last Monday was obtained, the trade bowever afterwards, became dull, and the prices were hardly supported.
