THE NATIONAL REGISTER. Family. Besides all these, the precedent of 1789 would be violated by such a measure, for at that period a proposition of a similar nature had been made and rejected. Mr. PoNsoNBY supported the amendment. Mr. W. WYNNE made a few observations in favour of the amendment. • Gentlemen had objected to the proposal upon the ground of the necessity f9r disinteredness. How was it known by that House whether the Groom of the Stole might not be come First Lord of the Treasury, and the Master of the Horse one of the Secretaries of State. In such case those Gentlemen surely could not be considered quite disinterested. The natural affections of his own family would surely be a very strong pro tection to his Majesty against any motives of a paltry interest edness.—The amendment that the Duke of York should be named in the Council was then negatived. Mr. Su ERIDAN objected, in the same clause, to the appoint ment of the Master of the Rolls to be of the Council. He thought that there was in that Council a superabundance of law; and of all things in the world law, upon such an occasion, appeared to him to be the most unnecessary. It surely would have been a !motion more consonant to the wishes of the House, and more respectful to the Committee, that the Speaker had been appointed to fill the situation to which the Lord Chamber lain, if he was alive, would be, by what the Right Hon. Gen tleman called , precedent, entitled. He contended that the whole of the precedent of 17:9 was an application to persons, and not to principles. The restrictions were levelled against the Prince, and not against a Prince. He would ask why the Right Hon. Gentleman wished to designate the Council by placing before the title of each Member of it his name. Was not the Right Hon. Gentleman aware that, by such a conduct, he threw the most foul suspicions upon the Prince. If any of those persons should die, why should not those appointed to fill their offices succeed them in their capacity as Council? No; the Right Hon. Gen tleman determined that rich should not be the case, because he knew that the Prince would have the power of making those appointments, and consequently could supply any vacancy ac cording to his own desire. lie then moved an amendment, " "Ishat the names of the persons appointed to be Council to her Majesty should be left nut, and that the offices in this form, viz. the Archbishop of Canterbury, &c. &c. should alone re main in the blank." The CHANCELLOR of the ExcirEQUER defended himself from the charge of having wished to throw any blame upon the Prince, whose conduct he felt so much pleasure in applauding. After a few words from Mr. Sheridan, and Mr. Whitbread, the amendment was negatived. The other clauses were then read, and several amendments proposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, which were agreed to. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER brought in a new clause to enable the Prince Regent to dispose of the Droits of Admiralty in the same manner as the King bad done, by the advice of the Treasury.—Agreed to. The House then resumed, and reported progress, and Mr. Lusnibro - rorr brought up the report of the Committee, which was read pro forma, and ordered to be taken into further con• sideratiou on Monday.—Adjourned.

Last week, a female child, seven years old, travelling with its mother in a Plymouth stage, in jumping towards the door on the off side, forced it open, and before its mother cou ld catch hold of its clothes, fell on the kirb stone, and her skuli was literally dashed to pieces. She was the only child of an officer on foreign service. Early on Thursday morning, a std accident happened in Cle ment's cow-yard, at Kingsland, °whit to one of the bulls getting among the cows white the peeple were milking. A woman who was far advanced in her pregnancy, not being able to get out of the way in time, was gored in a dreadful manner, and one of the horns of the furious animal penetrating the abdomen, she was literally ripped oi,en.
