• , , . HAMBURGH MAIL. , FRANKFORT, APRIL 17. (FROIII A LITTER.) An express from Munich brings the news, that in the last -conferences the difficulties which had arisen upon some minor points, had been happily adjusted ; t* negotiations consequently closed, and the whole territorial arrangements between Austria and Bavaria concluded. t~PasL 2 1.-By the treaty concluded on the 14th between Austria and Bavaria, the latter retains Desch tol dgaben, and the part of four bailliages of Salzburg lying on the left bank of the Salzbach. The capital (Salzburg) itself, and salt-works at Hallein, fall to Austria. The very important territorial ar ratigements with Baden, which are now to follow, are referred to Frankfort, and the negociatians concern ing them will immediately begin here. Comic Bich 'berg, who is Bavarian Ambassador and Plenipoten tiary to the German Diet, is expected here, at Frank ' fort, this week. It is said that the negotiations at C.arlsruhe will be opened without delay. KONIGSBERG, APRIL 11. - - - - According to the last accounts from Marienburg, fifty-three villages in the great Wender, with 9,930 inhabitants, and in the districts of Tiegenhoff, forty. 'tine villages, with 10,902 inh:ibitants, were under Water. To these are to be added the Elbing villages, 17 in number, with 4,000 inhabitants. WARSAW, APRIL la. General Carnot is still here, waiting for the deci aibn concerning his destination from St. Petersburgh. On the 12th we had 22 degrees of heat. The pretended Prince of the Birmans has, we hear, been farther interrogated upon his journey, in order to trace out more of bis relationship to the Sun and Moon. During his residence in Poland and Galicia, this strange adventurer, who is a handsome young man, wanted to distribute a Birman Emily Order, but nobody would accept it. AMERICAN PAFEBS. WASHINGTON, MARCH 14. --------- - - _ . The National Bank Bill has been passed in th• House of Representatives, but its fate in the Senate had not been decided when the last accounts came away.—On the motion of Mr. LOWNDES, in the House of Representatives, the carriage of his Excellency Mr. Gore, Governor of the Urn WI Province of Upper Ca nada, who landed at New-York in August last, on his way to his government, was exempted from duty. In the Senate, on the 11th of March, on t::e motion of Mr. WessTett—g , Resoived, That r! is expedient to provide by law tor making the gold c• ins of Eng land, France, Portl , gal, aud Spain, and the crowns of France, parts of the legal currency ut the United States, corresponding with the intrinsic value of said 'coins respectively, and that the Committee on the national currency be instructed to report a Bill ac cordingly." The SPEAKER laid before the House a letter from William Simmons, late Accountant of the War Department, stating certain defalcations and misap. plicatiuns of public monies by Colonel James Thomas, late Quarter -Master-General in the Army; also cer tain alleged improper reductirns by the Treasury Otficsrs of the amount due by Colonel Thomas to the Government ; and a belief that all was not fair, which -had prevented the prompt communication of the information called for by the House from the Pre-, silent on the 10th ultimo. The letter was referred to a committee of five. - The Senate was left in fell consideration of the National Bank Bill. Various amendments were pro posed, some of them rejected, and others agreed to. The National Intelligencer states--- ,, We learn that Mr. I'inkney has declined accepting the Embassy to Russia, to which he had been appointed; preferring . his seat in the House of Representatives to that ap pointment." The Manufacturers, Mechanics, Ste. of Philadel phia, have addressed a Memorial to Congress on the propriety and • necessity of protecting domestic in . dustry, and likewise the Tariff of Duties repined by flit Secretary of • the Treasury. • WASHINGTON CITY, MARCH IS. BANK.-1 1 be Bill to establish a National Bank has at length finally passed the House of Re presentatives by a majority of nine votes. What will be its fate in the Senate we do not undertake to say. It can hardly be expected to be so cordially received in tlwt body as the Bill from the House of Represen tatives respecting the compensation of the Members of Congress, which Bill finally passed the Senate yesterday by a vote of 21 to 11. The general im pression, however, appears to be, that the Bank Bill will also pass the Senate.—National latelkgencer. The Mail from the Brazils has brought accounts from Buenos Ayres to the 13th of January. At this period the Buenos Ayres Government had just re ceived an official report of the severe defeat experi enced by their troops under General Rondeau in Peru. The Independent Government, however, did not despair of ultimate success on the occasion, and had collected large reinforcements at Buenos Ayres and the neighbourhood, which wereto be sent off im mediately to the succour of Rondeau. AN EARTHQUAKIL—The American Papers, give a long account, from the Java Goveramme Gazette, of an earthquake which took plase in the island of Sum bawa, which, if true, by far eclipses the eruptions of Atna or Vesuvius. It is stated to have been felt at Batavia, a distance of between seven and 800 miles. Two vessels had arrived, both confirming the fact of, this awful convtdsion of nature. The Captain and passengers state, that, on the 4th of April, they heard at sea reports which they at first took for discharges, of artillery ; the heavens became obscured about eleven, and the remainder of the day passed in dark ness the most profound, during which the agitation of • the sea, the sulphureous smell, the sudden gleams across the atmosphere, with the dreadful volcanic eruptions, are not to be described : the fall of ashes VAS frequently two or three inches deep. About nine o'clock next morning the sky became clear, and, on bendier,/ on an adjoining island, the leaves were found stz ipptd min the trees, vegetation had been de stroyed, the birds had dropt from the branches, the fish were lying on the waters dead, and all nature leasing the most frightful appearance.

The inha bitants of the,Great Werder and' the Elbing villages hate been visited with a dreadful inundation,. which hat laid no less than 66 villages under water..... See the'extracts in another column. This n2orging a Flanders Mail arrived, which has brought us a variety of details respecting the Duke of WautsaroN's journey of inspection. His Grace every where experiences the most respectful attention. The Belgian Parliament has, by this time, resumed ijs labours. The following are extracts ; BRUSSELS, APRIL 27. His Serene Highness the Prince of Waterloo ar rived here last, night, returning from the Hague. He received this morning the compliments of the Staff, and then walked in the Park. It is supposed he will remain here three days. APRIL 28.—The passage of the Duke of Welling ton through this city, and his return, have revived the report that be is going to have a chateau built upon his estate at Waterloo. To-day at noo n he visited the Military Hospital, in which there are .till Eng. lish, Hanoverians, and Prussians, %mint,. in that memorable battle. The Hero walks alai; it the streets alone in the plainest dress. Meet 'n;; otoverian soldier, who was convalescent, he wen , tip to him and conversed with him : his Lortisl was recog nized. His presence inspires a sentitbent of respect and gratitude, which people cannot help testifying to hint. APRIL `29 . s Excellency the Duke of Welling ton departed this mot 'ling, at eight o'clock, to return to his headquarters at Camhray. From that place he will return to Paris. It is said that one of the motives of his temporary absence from Paris was to deprive malevolence of all pretext for saying that his presence had any influence upon the decision of the tribunal in the affair of his countrymen. To-mLrrow the Assembly of the States General is to open at the Hague. Among the several subjects 'of discussion that sill be brought before that Assem bly, the most important is the Project of a Law upon the Customs. It is hoped that the line of separation between Holland and Belgium will shortly dis appear. Letters from Patis state, that M. de Pradt, Er. Archbishop of Malines, has . just been sent into exile, and his last work suspended in the publicatioo. VERONA. APRIL. IL One cannot make too public the noble and.affect ing scene that the last moments of the Empress pre sented. This August Princess desired to see suc cessively, in private, all the persons of her household ; she addressed to each of them *ords of kindness and consolation. She expressed some satisfaction, that the Archduchess Beatrice, her mother, was accides. tally at a distance from a scene which would have too deeply affected her heart. 44 The road to the tomb," said the dying Princess, de is that of truth, all illusions cease; there is no more flattery, there is no more grandeur ; it must be for. gotten that I have been Empress and Queen. I wish that people may retain of me sentiments honourable to my memory." _ _ Her Majesty desired to embrace the Ladies who approached the nearest to her, and the following were the last words that could be collected; 41 Happiness is in a good conscience : I feel this soothing senti ment much mote in death than upon the &rose. Adieu! my friends ! my' children 1 Adieu! She ceased to breath. It is impossible to conceive the grief of this city since the death of the Empress. Every preparation is making to convey to Vienna the precious remains of this Princess. FRANKFORT, APRIL 23. The Princess of Esterhazy arrived here yesterday ; she is going to Paris, and then to London to join the Prince, her husband, the Austrian Minister to that Court. VENICE, APRIL 14. We expect here the Ministers of Russia and Prussia. It seems that his Majesty will prolong his stay in our neighbourood, the Physicians having prescribed to his Majesty the use of mineral waters : it appears be will take them at the Villa Apizzi, in the commune of La Battaglia. Thismagnificent residence, worthy of a Sovereign, can contain all the Court, and has in it mineral springs well known to the Romans, and ♦ery much esteemed at present, PETERSBURGH, MARCH Et By an Ukase of the 9th of this month the Emperor, ' consequence of complaint, addressed ,to the Au thorities, stating that persons employed in the corps of the Don Cossacs in buying peasants to transport them into the countries belonging to this corps, had retained these peasants and dispersed their iamilies, has ordered that for the future, and till this affair has been examined by the Council of the. Empire, that a l definitive Ordinance may be made on tl:e subject, it, should be forbidden in all the Governments to all peasants, to the persons employed in the corps of dui a• Des CoOaths, to party . them to the imMtries which belong lib that corps. GENOA, APRIL 15. On the I Ith of this month an English brig entered this port, having on board all his Majesty's subjects, sixty-one in number, who were in slavery in Algiers. The Captain of the brig reports, that Lord Ex mouth's squadron sailed from that port on the sth April, after having happily terminated with the Dey of Algiers the arrangement which he was commis tnissioned to conclude. The English fleet was to sail to Tunis, and thence to Tripoli, for the same purpose, which fills with joy all the inhabitants of this duchy. STU FGARD, APRIL 20. The Austrian Government has made another pay ment of 100,000 filrins, CHT account of what is due to Wirtemberg for the expenses of the war. We have received the Paris Papers of Tuesday.— They contain an account of the Adjournn&e:►t of the Chambers, a measure which we have reason to be lieve was not expected generally. It is hinted in private letters, that the real cause of this premature adjournment (for much public business still remained to be transacted) was an expectation that the Cham ber of Peers would reject the Project of the law passed by the Deputies for making a respectable pro vision tor the Clergy. This would have produced a collision between the Chambers, which the KING'S prudence would not permit him to bring into hazard. We make the 'allowing selections from the Paris Papers, received as above-mentioned : COURIER EXTRAORDINARY OF TUESDAY MORNING. The King took an airing yesterday to St. Cloud. M. Cortois de !'ressigny, formerly Bishop of St. Maloes and Ambassador Extraordinary to the Holy See, is appointed a Member of the Chamber of Peers. We are assured that his Majesty has given to the inhabitants of the city of Toulouse, who suffered in the late explosion, 100,000 francs : the Duke d'Angou leme, 20,000 francs, and the Duke de Berri 12,000 francs. His Majesty has caused an account to be laid be. fore him of such of the old Vendeans who, by their wounds and devotion, have merited more particularly provisionary assistance, under the head of recom "pease. His Excellency the Minister of War has al. ready sent to the War Commissny of the Lower Loire, to be shared among 166 Vendeans, wounded in the late wars, a sum of 14,140 francs. PARIS, APRIL SO. Five or six Spaniards besides Count Torreno have been arrested. We are also assured that orders have been given that the Spanish refugees who are in France, and who reside in the departments which adjoin Spain, must retire within the interior of France. Count Pusignieu, Lieutenant• General in the Sing's army, died last SaturdAy, at his hotel in the Rue St. Hosore. During the disastrous period of the Revo lution he contrived to retain hit regiment (the Chas. seurs of Lorraine) in the most steadfast loyalty.— Louis XVI. held him in the highest estimation. CHAMBER OF DEFUT lES. SITTING OF APRIL 29. After M. Laine, the President, had taken the Chair, he read the following letters trom the Ministers of the Interior and Finance : " Par is, April 23. " M. PRESIDENT—I have received the letter in which you ask me to take the King's orders. in order that the Bureau may wait upon his Majesty with the resolution of the Chamber on the subject of Ecclesi astical Pensions I have taken the orders of the King : his Ma jesty, from the account which I have given him of the Project adopted by the Chamber, has considered that this Project contains an article which entirely changes the nature of the law presented on the ex tinction of the rain viagern and ecclesiastical pen sions, and that this proposition may be sent in the form of a resolution, to the Chamber of Peers, but cannot be joined to the law which I have had the ho nour to present to the Chamber of Deputies, by order of his Majesty. I have the honour, &c. (Signed) 44 YAIIILANC." " Paris, April 28. " M.

As the King is to nomi nate these two Commissioners, from a list of six can didates presented by the Chamber, I entreat you to get this list made out and sent to me. (Signed) " COUNT CORVI:TTO." After the Chamber had voted the above List, M. DonoucHAsa, the Minister of the Marine, mounted the Tribune : " Gentlemen—After seven months of important labours, which you have gone' through with noble zeal, his Majesty has thought the moment was at-. rived for closing the Session of 1815. The President will now read his Majesty's Ordonnance." “ Loins. ate. “ We hare ordained as follows : 41 The Session of 1815, of the Chambers of Peers and Deputies, is closed. The Session of 1816 will commence on the Ist of October. " The present Proclamation shall be carried to the Chamber of Deputies by our Ministers of the Marine, and of Finances. (Signed) 4 ° Louis, &c." The PANAIDLIVE then hating read the Articles of , . ... the King's Chamber respectlng the aljouraftra k the House, the Assembly shouted es Vise le 11,, and all separated and went home. [The proceedings in the Chamber of Peers i tt precisely the same.] We have received Jamaica Papers to the March.

This morning we received New York Papers to th e 3d of April.—The New Teri Gazette of the precedic day states, that the Senate, on the 29th, was occupi in the discusson of the Bank Bill. Various amen ments were proposed, on which much discussion t place.—ln the House of Representatives, en the 28 the New Tariff was discussed—several amendmen4 made and agreed to—amoag which Maps, Charts am Drawings were agreed to be admitted free of duty; also chemical apparatus, when imported _for incoris rated Societies.

Letters of the 21st ultimo, from Biscay and Sebastian, distant about ten days postfrom Lis! say nothing of disturbances having - broken nut is t. North of Spain, as repotted in letters from the latt• city a few days ago. It is therefore ptobahle, th no open tumult had occurred, though it is not doubt • that the elements of insurtection exist very gene rzll in - Spain. Letters from Cadiz, of ti:e 12th c:t. me, tion the dismissal of many of the heads of the Cos tom-house, in consequence of a deficit in the pubic monies ; but contain no political news. We have received, since our last, an Extraerdi. nary Gazette of the Government of Lima, dated the 234 of December, 1815. It contains a dispatc4 from PEZUELA, the General-in-Chief of the army of Upper Peru, addressed to the Marquis de la Cos coma, the Viceroy, in which he boasts of having obtained a complete victory over ItoNneau, who commands the army of the Buenos Aires rebels as they are called. He says, that on the 2Gth Novem ber he reached the heights of Chacapaya, which are the last eminences of the Cordillera, and about two leagues distant from the plain where RONDEAU lay encamped. His descent into the plain cost him two days' painful march, in which he Was constantly op• posed by the enemy. On the 29th he gave battle to the Buenos Ayres army, which amounted to 6,000 men, and completely defeated it. The. enemy, In states, lost 1,5(X) in killed and wounded, and 400 prisoners, together with-all his artillery. He asserts, that the second army of the insurgents of Bums Ayres had thus been totally destroyed ; and concluder with stating his intention to send one of his corps against Cochabamba, another against Potosi, and a third to exterminate certain chiefs, who had been sent by RONDEAU to levy contributions on the town of La Paz.'
