Sir Joha PhiUi- more war. accompanied by his brothers, Di'.l)hil- litnore, ?,I. P., and Mr. Phillimore, file Chaacery CouiS'Sel, and a great number of navAl /rieaaj among whom were Sir Cap- tain Randolph, R. N., Captain Jeilerson, li. N. &c. &c. AV. James stated that about two o'clock on Friday afternoon, while he was Wiiiifi;^ in his study, at his house. No. J, Chapel-iielus, South Lambeth, he was alarmed by a violent wrapping at the hall-door, which continued until tlio door was opened by the female servant, whoa two per- sons. having the appearance of gentlemen, of whom was Sir John Phillhuore," entered lus stuciy, with their hair, cm.

Yet, with a dis- tance that would have suited carroiiades, these 2]-pounders did not do so much execution, in proportion! to the time they were acting, as had been (tone on many other occasions by an equal number of cig'iteens, &e. &c." Witness him jeif read Iho paragraph aloud, aad Sir John' said it was incorrect.. Witness replied, that he had the information from the books of the Navy Office, and he believed if to be correct. Sir John then swore the work was a rascally one, and written by a scoundrel. Witness, indignant at such au insult, told Sir. John he lied," or that he was liii- at hearing which, Sir John took from under his coat a stick or bludgeon, and struck him violently over the head. Witness jumped from his chair, seized Sir -John, and would have tumbled him, had it not been for the interference of the man (he must call hiin) who accompanied his assailant. At this juncture, Mrs. James, who was unwell, rushed into the parlour, and averted another blow directed at him by Sir John. She screamed out for a constable, and Sir John and his companion ran out of the house. Mr, CiiAMBi-:ns.—How did they go out. ikir. Jaii-,es.-Tliey ran out with all possible speed. I Mr. James's servant a young woman, depos- ed as to the admission of the two Gentle- men, who. she said, rushed into the parlour, the 0 door of which was instantly shut. She heard the names of scoundrel," "I rascal," and she also heard the sound, of blows given with a slick.— Upon entering the room, she saw her master's face covered with blood, and her mistress wresting a stick from the hands of one of those who had entored. She likewise saw the two persons run away.. Mr CriAMBEns asked the girl, whether the stick w; of the size of his wrist or of his finger'—She repUe l, that she believed it to be about the size of a nun's linger. Mr. ALLEN.Are you positive that Sir John FhiJimore entered the house with the stick con- c !—Qa opening the door I perceived the stick ia his hand. Mr. ALLEN then called upon Sir John to ex- plain, ifhe thought proper,why he had committed this breach of the peace. Sir John then stated, that upon his recent re- turn from the Souih American station to Ports- mouth, he dined in company of several Naval 0[- ficers of hiflih character amongst whom the con- versation turned on the subject of James's His- tory of the late Naval War. One of the company oh ;n ve-d upon the occasion, that he (Captain was in Jar it, as to the on between the Eurotas aad the Clorinde. This assui-anee naturally prompted him to refer as soon as pos- sible to the book, in which lie found some gro. inaccuracies. J its next impulse was, to consult with his friends upon the steps mostadviseable of adoption. Thdl" advice was, that he should a; pnee come up to London, to make the necessary inquiries upon a subject which, ha considered as affecting his professional character in au iatolera- ble dv gree. lie aecoru;.i.y came u>> lo town without delay, and, acco.npainod by'a fuend, called at the house of Mr. James, at the time previously stated. He was v/illing to acknow- ledge that lie was at iho time agiiaV.\i :u au ex- treme degree, i i co-v^qrieaee of the gross mis- statemeai respecting the engagemeut b> Uveee, iiie. frigate he had the honour to command and the Clorinde. He would appeal to the fieart of every man of honour waeiher some allowance ought uoi. to be made for the burst of passion with which he had been, described to have commenced and finish- ed his undress to the author of the calumny. He had loughtjvnd bled in several engagements, and never in the history of his naval life had he wit- jjes»ed greater evidences of gallantry than upon the occasion on which The NavaUIistory had so unfairly animadverted. One paragraph stated that Lurotas frigate fought with 3i-ponnders. She d»d not fight with 2 A-pounders. A few days be- fore the engagement with the Clorinde, she ex- changed her guns for 18-pounders, with which she obtained a most signal victory. Sir JoIn Phiilimore then admitted that, under these aggra- vating cir9lMWftiH!ces,he had ^sasglted the prgie- cutor but he denied that he had struck the author of the cahunnies a bludgeon. The stick he had nsoj was ti:»twhich-ho now held in his hand.

From an Inquiry into the Literal and Political (JuaruCiCr oj Ju:,ies iiic .ii'ivsi, OVC¡',r;ro;d:¡, of ike Jliiciropolij.—" One of the greatest national grievances, as it appeared to the Government and in James's reign, was the perpetual growth of the metropolis; and the nation, like au hypochoidnac, w»ii In- tiicrously teriiiied that their head was too ieOi> strous for thvir ijo-dy, cud drew all the inoisiure of life to the remoter parts. It is iimuwag to observe the endless and vain precautions em- ployed to stop all new buildings, aud lo force person out of town to res Lie at their country mansions, pjoclainailons warnerl and ekho.icd, but thd very iateifaraaee of ju-ohibitica rendered the crovr.de 1 town more delightful. Oae of its at- tendant calamities was the prevalent oaa of that day, the pLigi.e and one of aiose State libels, which were early or never printed, enÍiLd '• Balaam's Ass," ha; this passage s—• In tlelugo of new bnihiiiijs, we shall be ail po-soaed with breathing in one another's faces, aiid your Majesty hath most truly stiiii, England aiid your Majesty hath most truly stiiii, England will shortly be London, and London IJagluad." It as the popular wish that country gentlemen should reside more on their esiatos and it was on. this occasion the King made that admirable allusion, which has receutiy been repeated in the House of Commons. (ieatleiiun resident on (heir estates were like ships ia port—their value au magnitude were felt aad aeknopledged but when at a distance,- as their sil.e seemed insigni- ficant, so their worth and importance -were not duly estimated.' The King, abounded with si- milar observations; for he drew from life even j more than from books. James is reproached for being deficient in po- litical sagacity; notwithstanding that, he ollle- what prided himself on what he denominated King s craft.' This is the fate of it paciiic and domestic Prfnco His vein of familiar huniours flowed at all times; and his fiicetiousness was sometimes indulged at the cost of his tio yal ty.- In those unhappy differences between him and Va!'li;Hru-ot< oao day mounting his hoi-se, which,'though usually sober aud quiet, began to bound and prance. 4 Sin ah exclaimed the King, who seemed to fancy ihathigfavouiLe pre- rogative was somewhat resisted on this occasion, If yon be not quiet, I'll send you to the live Kings in -the Lower House they'll quickly tame you.'—When one of the Lumley's was pushing- on his lineal ascent beyond the pa- hence of the hearers, the King, to cut short the tedious descendant of the Lumleys, cried out, Stop r.ion thou needest no more now I learn tbat Adam's surname was Lumley !"—WiienCol. Gr.ty, a military adventurer of that day, just re- turned from Germany, seemed vain of his ac- coutrements, on which he had spent his all, the King, staring at this buckled, belted, sworded, pistolled, but mined martinet, observed, that this town was so well fortided, that were it vic- tualled, itiuiCjht be iinprett'tutble.' James's Opinion of henry VIIT. —" It was strange (said J ames) to look into the life of Henry the Eighth, how like an epicure he lived. Henry once asked, whether he might be saved ?" He was answered, He had no cause to fear, having lived so mighty a king." '• But oh," said he, I have lived too long like a king."— He should rather have said not like a king; for the office of a king is to do justice and equity, but he ouly served his sensuality, like a brute. _4(.k--

About a month ago, an estate, weU situate on the Girvan, arid rented now at -I-t')O, or ^»ts, was sold by private bargain for ^11,000. Within this fortnight another, rented at X'360, aad in other respects, perhaps, pretty equal in hs advantages, sold for o-lo in money, with .ptner coudidous worth, perhaps, 4;1000 lI1orc.- | he Rum^i-ous grass-iields ot Dundure and Dun- dali, were let, by rood, on Saturday last, at the briskest bidding for the whole of which we re- ineinber, part at nearly double and generally one c third above the former rents of last year. The highest were taken for summer bowings of cows (an excellent arrangement, if it were more gene- räl" to provide oin- supplies of the best milk, chese and buvter,) with accommodation merely of houses to the grass.

LONDON,1
LONDON, 1 SATUilDAV, APlllL 10., THE accoants of the Quarter's Rennae were on Tuesday night made up, and the general result which they exhibit is highly gratifying. The Revenue for the Quar- ter eiidin<5 on Tuesday, exceeds the re- ceipt of the Quarter ending April 5,1823, by nearly two millions. It is true the payment, on account of the Austrian composition, forms an ingredient in the last quarter's revenue; but then, against this there is to be set off a very serious reduction of taxes. A just estimate of the improvement that has taken place, will be formed by a reference to the prin- cipal heads of the Revenue, which are of course uniniluenged by any extraneous circumstance. The produce of the Cus- toms for the April quarter in 1823 was 9Sfcij92CiI. while in the present quarter it amounts to 1,201,8831. affording an augmentation in this branch alone of up- wards of 300,0001. In the Excise the encrease is 255,794/ and that on Stamps is 92,9-12/. The most ingenious grumbler, cannot ascribe there improvements toany thing but the growing prosperity of the empire nor can the most acute financier get rid of the conclusion, that this growing prosperity which has proceededpuiipassu with the reduction of taxes, is intimately connected with it. The experience of the last few years furnishes a growth of re- venue, arising out of the repeal of taxes, which transcends all calculation; aDd which ought to btimulate the people, and to encourage the Government to get rid, as far as possible, of those taxes, which by cramping the exertion of industry, and contracting fair industry, ultimately withhold from the public treasury, more than they seem to contribute to it. The effect of the favourable view oftlie public finances, exhibited in the Quarter's Account, was powerfully aided by the announcement that the assents, to the commutation of the 4 per Cents., amount. ed Tuesday, to 64 millions. Cousols closed in consequence at 95f |; the probability that all the Great Poweis will follow tlw example of England in reducing the interest of their public debt, leads to a belief that Con&ols will, ere lung reach par.

St. Pete t-rb?.,rZh, March 17—N?w; has been received from Captain Kol ze¡IU. who arrived at ltio de Janeiro on the l)' h of November- last, and remained liiere three weeks, waiting for the favourable season to double Cape Horn.

The adjournment will be till Monday, May 3, which is a period of seventeen days, a niu--h longer recess than has taken plate for Sessions past. Such is the forward siate of the public business,, that ilt, the mea- sures which it depends more oil the Ministers to bi-iii:, forward, that it ii Calculated the Prorogation of ParlimeDt will take place as early as the 15th of June. This will make the Session almost iMiprecedently short—meeting inFebruary and proroguing in June, there being in the mean time nearly three weeks holidays and several days on which there were "no Houses." Useful business rather than speculative debates, have been the order of the day,and they have saved much time; it is curious to observe how much long speeches are going out of fashion. Amsterdam, April 4.—The Chamber of Commerce has.Fiveii notice to the mer- chants that the Government, having been informed that the Captains of several ves- sels, under the Dutch flag, lying in the ports of the Mediterranean, had besitated to put to sea for fear of the Algerines, have judged the reports received to be exaggerated, and thought that the Consuls in those ports, knowing that his Majesty's squadron in the Mediterranean had sailed from Mahon to protect the trade, might have made the captains easy on this head, it had, notwithstanding, im. mediately sent letters to the Consuls in French, Italian, and Spanish ports in the Mediterranean. If Admiral Ruisch, who commands this squadron, has not detached any vessel to serve as convoy, he must, no doubt, have seen that it was unncces* sary, it being positively known that the Algerines have returned to port, and that 0 the harbour of Algiers, as well as the whole Algerinc coast, is rigorously blockaded by the E#tgl i, h squad Pon,-It is added, that if the Dutch naval force should, in the sequel, appear to be in. Sufficient, it will be reinforced. Trieste, March 18,-A Meeting has been held by the Greeks at imissolatighl, in order to discuss the offensive and de. fensive measures for the enduing cam- paign. Prince Maurocorduto presided in this important meeting. It appears to be resolved to send the whole force toThes* saly. The province is to be entered on three sides one corps seemed to be des- tined to Agrippa on the west; a second to occupy Volos, on the east; while the main Greek army will advance to Neopa- tra and the Thermopylae. The first two corps, in those natural strong positions, may oblige the Turks to divide their forces. Letters have been received this morn.. ing from Corfu,dated the 11th ult. whicli state that an Algerino squadron was cruising ra thosescas agaInst the Britisla commerce, in consequence of which, the Government there had laid an embargo on British and Ionian vessels. Accounts from Palermo notice the ar- rival there of the English ship Martinec, from Bristol. This vessel on her voy- age was firetl- upon by an Algerine ship of war off Cape Bunar, from which she escaped by superior sailing. This is the first account of any actual hostilities com- itittfed by the Alacrities agaiuat tite bi-i. tUh tlag Madrid, March S18.-Much is said of the answel which our- Government should ilive to the memorandum oi ihr* fcingiish iiijlister respecting the Americans.
