April 21. By the proceedings of the House of Com mons lall night it will be seen that Mr. Sheridan, and other gentlemen in Oppoiition, have come forward in the moft patriotic and decided manner, and pledged themlelves to all ill in defending their country. A bill palled both Houles, and is to receive the Roy al aflent this day, for iulpending the Habeas Corpus Aft. We are not yet prepared to give an opinion on this measure. If it proves that £hc re ports in circulation are tine the proceeding is fully warrant ed. A week ago we heard that Government was in pof feliion of certain information that societies had a plan for fitting lire to London in various parts, with a v iew to efteft a/evolution and favor the French. It is laid the principal towns in England were to l>e fired, and the 21st of next month was the day appointed for this horrid projeft. Go vernment have written evidence of the faft; Inch at lead is the aflertion oi thole in their confidence. Whether it lie tiue or not that fm h diabolical ft hemes were in contempla tion Government has rtlolved vo aft with vigor. Thuriilay night was a time ot general arrests. It is intended to fi ize and confine all the Members of the London Com (ponding Society. _On Lhurfday night the following persons were taken into cuftexly: In a house in Cow Cross three or four Members of the London (.orrelponding were taken, and about 500 pikes and daggers were found in their polfeffion.
