Ou Friday evening last Ministers were left in a minority of 54! by which decision two of the use less Lords of the Admiralty were done away with— this ought, according to precedent, to be the signal for their resignations but they will hold to place, under however degraded circumstances.

With unusual pleasure do we refer our readers to the pro.eedings in the House of Commons on Thurs. day night—nut because the motion fur a repeal of un oppressive tax was successful, for unhappily it was not so—not because the opposition to Ministers included 165 members, while their supporters (in which number were of course included the votes of We hear with much pleasure that a public meet ing of the Holders of Five per Cent. Stock will be called immediately, to consider of the best method of resistance to the infamous proposition of the Chan cellor of the Exchequer-our readers, however, need not be reminded, that from the 4th to the 16th of the present month is all the time allowed for the expression of dissent against a measure which will rub the Holders of 16s. per annum on every 1001. Five per Cent. all the placemen and pensioners, who to the disgrace of the House, are allowed to have a vote) amounted to only 169. leaving them a majority of but 4, in a House consisting of 334 members—not because we saw in array, against the continuance of this Tax, se veral of those persons who have for the last thirty years said Ay., to every question which Ministers wished to carry, and No to every motion they chose to oppse—but because during the debate in question the principle was recognized that ought alone to to lerate the continuance of any government, THL 000 D ()PINION AND APPROVAL or THE PEOPLE.— The Duke of Wellington way say " County meet ings are a farce." The Marquis of Londonderry may treat wish contempt the " idea of considering as worthy of attention the opinion without doors," but we repeat our conviction, that the sooner any government which sets itself in direct opposition to the public opinion and wishes, is destrqed the better, forasmuch as Governments were instituted Letters dated Wednesday morning, have been re. ceived from Paris, which state that accounts had reached that city of a new attempt to excite dis turbances in Saumur. A party, consisting of about 50 men, headed by General Berthon, had appeared in Saumur, where they hoisted the tri-enlour flag, and manifested the most tumultuous conduct.— They were attacked by the municipal guard, and a conflict of some obstinacy took place between them before they could tie expelled. S.:veral of General Bullion's party were killed. Of the remainder the greater portion were apprehended and lodged in pri son. Their leader made his escape, but almost un accompanied; this event, which, if the authority of the private letters may be relied on, was of no portance, and only a temporary interrnption to the tranquillity of Saumur, had been made use of by a party of speculators on the Paris Exchange, to canse a panic, and induce sales of stock. The realer had in consequence fitllen about one per cent., but as the letters were despatched in the early part of %xi. nestlay, the actual etre:et on the prices could not be ascertained. The Quolidienue (Paris paper) of Wed nesday has the following paragraph on the subject : " PARIS, FEB. 26.—Many reports were in circu lation this evening respecting an assemblage of disaffected persons in the town of Thouars, and who, after having committed excesses worthy of a troop of genuine friends of liberty, intended to have made an attack on the city of Sautuur. But the gates being shut, this band of wretches are wander ing about the country, and it is annou:xed that one of the regiments of the Royal Guard at Orleans has been detached in pursuit of them. We publish this intelligence without being able to give any exact details. They will arrive without doubt to-mor row, and if the facts should prove to agree with what has been circulated this evening in the capi tal, it may be added to the proofs already known of the degree of fury with which some men may be animated when they see the public peace secured by the support of the laws."

W. Coke, Esq. of Holkham, (M P. for Norfolk), to Lady Ann Keppel, second daughter of his Lordship. Mier the ceremony the bride and bridegroom left town for the Dowager Lady Dc Clifford's cottage, Dudley tirove, Paddington. The Countess entertained a select party of fashionables among them were the Dukes of Sussex, Norfolk, &c. AORICUYTURAL DISTREPS.—A very respectable and numerous meeting of owners and occupicts of land in the Soke of Peterborough, in the county of Northampton, wa.s held at. the town-hall at Peter borough, on Saturday, the 2351 ult. pursuant to requisition, for the purpose of taking into consi deration the distressed state of the agricultural in terest, and proiTiety of submitting the same by petition to the House of Commons. The venerable Earl Fitxwilliam took the chair, and opened the business of the meeting by expatiating on the utter inefficiency of the relief proposed by ministers to the extreme distress of the agricultural interest. Lord Milton followed, and admirably exposed the absur dity of the Bank Loan to the parish,:s, and the fal lacy of making the Sinking Fund a pretence agaimt the reduction of taxation. A strong petition, in conformity with these general views, was warmly and unanimously passed, and is to be presented to the House of Commons by the Members fur Veto borough. Wretched Stole of the Poor in Ireland.—Putatoes rose in Mayo, on Saturday, to the alarming price of 6d. per stone.—The wretchedness and poverty which exist at present in and about this town exceed belief, and the prospect for the spring and sunialcr is dismal indeed. It is not uncommon to see a man spending the greater part of a day in red;g4ing ground from which potatoes had been dug in the season, and taking home in the evening the fOir that, in the second search, lie discovers in the earth, as the only sastenance winch lie can provide fur a . famishing family.—Perhaps a more persu a s ive p lug' of the poverty that prevails could not be advanced. and it way be seen Ia almost ever y potatoe held around us. The Bank of Ireland will shortly commence to draw Bills, at 21 days sight, on London; or issue Post Bills, payable in Loudon. fur stints within certain limits not yet, we believe, finally deterunned on. The Exchange fur thew Bids will be fixed at 8 1. P .w; 1 16
