The motion was sudden and premature. By bunging t nn at thin moment he deprived himself ■ l# f tso verv irvport int Scbject*—tile bank ’restriction and the Budget of the year.— The rij^Ut him. gentleman began with des canting very uncciuiteously upon the ad ministration, Which lie taunted and precated with tnme success. The first topic upun which lie entered was our for • «-ign relations, which Restated tube quit novel. F.'irope, he said, was under th tutelage til four pow rs, of wliich Eii$tnn< wu* one. At tho congress at Ant ln-Cha pelle, France was admitted a filth, and 'strange enough, in a very short time after 't*e Duke of Rirhelieo, a confidence i< Whose councils hsd iuduceirthe Allies to 'take this step, had scarcely returned in Tails, when he and his administration went to nieces, 1 —a uetv cabinet was lorm- ■>il, and Fi ancr, so lornudahie during the ■trar, appeared fo midsble again. 1 he ’ right lion.gentleman after glancing at the Netherlands, passed on tn America, con demned the cession of the Florida* and the commercial treaty ,'}nd observed, with g eit truth, that thcre'wis a time when the murder of two-British subject? •. sen though the letter of the law tof nations were sgiinst us, would not have passed without tile demand of “a bloody ani! a strict at count.” He then i.ftert-if a passing prnye ’for the S.

U'hat. lie ask ed, would be the a*ate of the country, en countering a war with «uch a burden upon its shoulders? The right Iwm. gentleman concluded his speech with pronouncing sentence of incompetence upon ministers, find professing his own readiness to pass over with his friends into their places.— I,.nd Castlereagh replied, and turned the laugh, if not the argument, against the right bon. gentleman, lie spoke in a tune'ul • pleasan rv fir a considerable time, and ex cited a great dc d o! merriment at the ex pense of his opponent. Upon most ot the topics relating to foreign countries, refuta tion was easy. It is not matter of charge against ministers that Fiance has become ‘formidable. There is, it is true, much of inme itable humiliation in the forbearance •of government toWififs America—M ith 'South America we had nl» right to into fere. JJut the dreadtul difficulties in which the 'countiy it placed, and its utter inability *to sustain t war, were unanswered and •unanswerable by the noble lord.

It is sickening to the heart to sse the lists of persons who are published weekly in the Biltinnre papers, as making appli cation for the benefit of the insolvent laws »l Maryland. The amount debts due by them is enormous. A similar work is unhappily going on in all the large citi- s and towns of the United States. Th who were a little while siuce the “tip of the ton” and residing in palaces, are thus engaged in fettling their d»hts, and drag ging many sober a'd discreet mechanics and tradesmen along with them. The pressure of the times—the wantnf some thing to give a circulation to money, and hence the impossibility of makiug reason able collections, also prevents many, who are rexiiv well able to pay their debts, from meeting their engagements; tire facilities which they might have relied on, on an emergency, six months ago, being now wholly denied to them, fe'mh is the hor- rid state into which unpiincipled specula- ticRj combined with palpable fraud in too many cases, have reduced our country.— T&e “paper system” has seriously affect ed our moral character, and enough of pur*crime h'as sometimes happened in a single bhnlc, lo send a thousand liuie ras cals to thapenitefiiarv. ••Pxe mu'der maV'' a vij'air—•vniJlionsafcerb.” - 4 V. | AVashivotos- Citt, July 1.
