Up to this moment we have received no confirmation of the taking of Silistria by the Russians, but the news is generally spread in this city. We expect with imps: tieuce.tlfe mail'of Prussia and- St. Petersburgh, which has not yet arrived. ,A general subject of conversation is, a separate Treaty of Commerce, which is going to be concluded between the f'ee City of Frankfort and the Electorate of Hesse. 'Toe negociations for a general system of customs for the central States of Germany, have met with many obstacles. P.S. A courier, who has passed through this city, brings the news that Silistria was taken on the 26th by the Russians, commanded by General Scherbatoff, after three assaults. The loss of the Russians was very con siderable, but the whole Turkish garrison perished. PARIS, Nov. 23. Very recent account', which we have received from Gibraltar, confirm those already published, stating a sensible decrease in the number of the sick in that place. The Courier Francais says—ti A lever from Munich has been shown us, in which it is announced that Don Miguel has applied to the King of Bavaria for the hand of one of the Princesses of h's family. His Majesty, b:- . fore giving an answer, has thought proper to refer to the Emperor of Austria, before whom the ceremony t f betrothing Don Miguel to Queen Donna Maria took place. The Conn of Vienna is said to have replied, that negociations were at this moment on foot with the Emperor of Brazil, on the subject of his daughter's marriage; and that till the result was known, no alliance with am Miguel was possible." FROM THE CONSTITHTIONNZL. TOULON, Nov. 17. The brig Loirer, Captain Letogue, which left Patras on November Ist, brings the follo , ing letter : " Castle of the Mores, Oct. 30. 14 My last letter informed you that 1 was still at Na yarit); two days afterwards we were ordered to Patras, to revenge the injuries done to the Echo. Our frigate ,received orders to bring up in hoot cf the fort, but the garrison made no resistance. Patras was sacked in the early part of the war ; and at present there are a few wooden houses, of which the filth attests the poverty of the inhabitants. In the best quarter cf the town the houses are only a collection of planks, on tdp of one of a hick a Turk was seated, surrounded by his wives, and • smoking very tranquilly. On the 14th I visited the town a second time, and then things were changed ; the Greek inhabitants, who had been wandering in the mountains,. had returned to the town and taken posses sion of their former dwellings. Patras has acquired a -more animated appearance-; shops were opened, and they wore symptoms of the activity and industry of the -Greeks." MANCHESTER ANTI CATHOLIC MEETING. hioxooT, Nov. 24. This morning, at eleven o'clock, a Meeting was held, pursuant to an advertisement which appeated in most of the papers, of such inhabitants cf Manchester and &afoul as were oppo-ed to any further concessions being granted to the Catholics. At a quarter after eleven Mr. HARDMAN 0 as called to the Chair, and said that having been appointed to that office by so flume - tons and respectable a Meeting, however incompetent he might be to fulfil its duties, he could not decline the honour conferred upon him, but would. discharge the deities of his situation to the best of his ability. Id calling this Meeting, he felt c(ovinced that the requi • sicionistshad been ir . fluenced by a connection with the •p, (le stant Church of England, and an attachment to the principles of the Constitution of this.country. The . Chair man read the requisition, which was as follows: "We, the undersigned, deeming it highly necessary, under the piesent circumstances of the country , that :;those inhabitants of Man heater and Salford, and their vicinities, who feel that the concession of further politi cal, power to the Roman Catholics would be pregnant with danger to the Constitution cf these realms, should make known their sentiments to the Legislature, do in .. tend to meet for this purpose in the Manor Court-room, Brown-street, on Monday, the 24th instant; at eleven . o'clock in the forenoon; at which Meeting we earnestly ,sequest the attendance cf all such as concur with us in • To th is requisition 550 names of merchants and manu facturers were attached. . J. Noftals, Esq. Chairman of the Quarter Sessions, presented himself to the meeting. Ile.concurred in the sentiments expressed in the requisition. It was a meeting of those only who were unfavourable to any further con cer.sions being granted to the Roman Catholics. With fee gird to the part he was then taking, he was ready to state his reasons. The Catholic question was one which had often been discussed in Parliament, as well as in the fit st publications of the day ; he woul4 not, therefore, venture into the wide field of discussion, for be considered the meeting as well able as himself to appreciate the argu ments on one side and on the other—lie would yield to no man in the country in regard for the private characters of it.disnduals of the Roman Catholic faith. tie esteemed many. and not the less because nn principles ( f religion they differed from himself. He felt as strong a degree of affection for the Roman Catholic as for any other principle of religion. But he would a.,lt some cpostions on the subkst of the Church of Rome. Was not the • R man Catholic Church consistent? If it was, he deemed it ndt fitting that the professors et its I iith - should be admitted to their .former power. WAS the nature of their faith altered in any manner from what it was at the Revolution of 1688? For that event the Whigs had claimed credit to the present day; and he thanked them f 1r having done great • good to the. country. But, what expense of money was incurred, and h iv/ much blood had been sheJ e in order to bring about that event; and did they not expel the rightful heir to the throne because he was a tattled to the religion of the Church of Rome? 'l'be Contt;tution established in Church and St de at that time was left in trust, and they would support it. If 'Roman Catholic Emancipation was granted, could things remain in that state ? The speaker dwelt on .the present state of the Irish people—their - prostration before the Priests—and the viol, nt languyge held by certain member ' s of the Association—to the • Priests leading their Hicks to the hustings tor political purposes; and, it Emancipation were conceded, might not similar circumstances occut whenever the Pope or Bishops thought proper ? Was. it it& that political power should be conceded to itrzh men? Besides, would Oe Catholics remain satisfied when they got rrwer ? He was aft aid not. What min, if they gained - admi.sion into both Houses of Parliament, would stippr se that, after that, they would not make some other demand ?—and, when krought wider discussion how would Ministers be ab!e to stand against them. when, even at present, tisae iv ould:ll4, on all occasions. .00411111 and major ides? ' 044kbe• . glum up, bound, to the Catholics, and Ireland would, in the end, become a Catholic country. A person in a distant part of the room interrupted the speaker', but he WAS assailed with cries of Oidet, order I Chair, Chili: r " Tutu him out," exclaimedone voice; " No," cried another, " let him stay and hear reason." The following resolution was then proposed by Mt. Norris 1. That this Meeting, cordially rejoicing that their Roman Ca tholic fellow subjects enjoy the same freedom of religious worship as every other denomination of Christians, is nevertheless of opinion that to concede to them the same political power, would, from the principles of their religion, and the foieign influence affecting it, be fraught with danger to the Protestant Constitution of these realms, as established at the Revolution of 1688. The motir , n was seconded by Mr. Beepstriw, who said it would have given him gre.it pleasure to have come forward in favour of emancipation; but there was an emancipation which must precede that which was demanded—the emancipation of the priesthood from foreign it:fluetice, and of the laity from the , power of the priesthood: and, lastly, flee access to the Holy Sciiptures—the breatest blessing a nation coultl.l evj )y. The motion was then put, and tattled by a great majority. The fAlowing other resolutions were also passed— viz. • 2. That the character and event of the spiritual authority of she Church of Hum, and the way in.which it is applied in tem poral concerns, bate been practically shown, by the recent occur rences in the Sister Kingdom, where this author itv has been exerted over her members to promote objects purely political, even at the risk of ruin to their dearest temporal interests; front which may be fairly inferred the danger that must result from the admimis.on of perslins subject to such an influence to a share in the Legislature. 3. That, for several years past, a Society calling themselves the . Catholic Association, has existed in Ireland, in open defiance and contempt of lairs esfecially enacted for its suppression ; and, in conjunction with the Priesthood, has levied taxes, and'exercised, in various ways, an authority opposed to, and paramount to, that of the Government. 4. That this Meeting cannot but deeply regret that - proceedings thus illegal in their character, and dangerous in their tendency, have in no instance been disavowEd,. but have. been generally sanc tioned and applauded by the Roman Catholic community. 5. That every attempt which has been made to devise securities calculated to allay the reasonable and well-founded apprehensions r of the Protestants has completely failed, aud the most influential of the Roman Catholics do unt hesitate to avow, that the posses sion of political power (the object of their present claims) would only lead to further demands, aud facilitate their attainment. 5. That, under all these circumstances, this Meeting reels itself called upon to make known to the LegiJature its sentinients on this most important subject, and earnestly to pray that the Pro. testantConetitutiito, to which, under PROVIDENCE, Great Britain owes her power, prosperity, and happiness, may be preserved unimpaired. 7. That the Petition now mad be adopted. 8. That a Committer, coosising of the following Gentletnen (their names were read), with power to add to their :lambus, be appointed, to carry into effect the objects of the Petitioners. 9. That his Grace the Duke of Wellington be reiniited to pre. sent the Petition to the House of Lords, and the flight lionottr. able Robert Peel that to the House of Comnions. The Meeting was addressed by Mr. 13enj. Green, Mr. Crow, the late Boroughteeve, Mr. Braidly, Mr. J •seph Briley, and one or two others. Their speeches were yell attended to, and frequently aprlauded by the maj city. A few Catholics, perhaps amounting to thirty or forty, of course dissented from evety resiilutinti, as *ell as from the sentiments of the speakers. At one pe riod, a Mi. Dfigherty,swhO is of the Catholic persua sion, and a resident in Manchbster; attempted to address the Meeting. Rising from. a seat beside the Reporters, he said—May I be al owed to speak' a few words? The Chairman, evidently supported by a majority of the Meeting, refused to listen to .Mr. Dogherty, and he relucUntly sat down. The Manor Court-room is supposed to be capable of containing 1,200 persons, but we cannot Late upon usj to state that more than 600 were preseat, which is cer tainly a small number compared with those in the towns of Manchester and Salford, who must have decided opinions on the subject of Catholic Emancipation. • The foUowiog remark. on the futility and mischief of Mr. °Ton tames advice is a late speech, that any attempt to abolish the 40s. freeholds might be resisted by force, are so true and so strikingly expressed, that we ate sure they will nut be unaccept able to our readers. N If Mr. O'CONNELL continues to indulge his pugna cious fancy a little longer, and to bring before the s 'uses of a fiery and uncalculating multitude the re peated picture of an'appeal to aims, in• given contin gencies f legislation, we do n ,, t say what the King's Government ought to do; but what they will do is quite unquestionable, provided they see the popular spirit wrought up by these orators to an insurrectionary level. The salus pupal will then be the sole object of the State ; a pte.sing public danger will supersede the ordinary technicalities of justice. The persons of those who are looked upon as incendiaries will be seized at once, and we ask any one who knows the temper of Parliament, whether a B• 11 r f Indemnity to his Ma je ty's Ministers, and a simultaneous suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act, would try t be passed, as soon as tendered, by a majority of four to one? " There would be a glee movement' in conse quence—' a rebellion of the Catholics.' We think it possible—we fear that a rebellion might follow. Now, as it is necessary to look extremities in the face, and to calculate as well as may be the military chances in- volved in Mr. O'Connell's late effusion of an armed in surrection, no matter whit the cause, we will consider fur a moment this deplorable and ffseadful issue. " The King's troops now in Ireland, in round num. bens, may be taken at 35,000 men, of whom any 8,000 I collected in one spot would destroy any mob of the peasantry that coulJ, for a twelvemonth to come, be brought against them. In the mean time reinforce. ments would be sent over. A body of 6,000 or 7,000 cavalry, the best in any service, are at this mo ment mounted in the United Kingdom, and would, to a man, be employed in cutting down the un fortunate victims of demagogue turbulence and folly. Great Britain could in the shalt space of three months raise, arm, officer from the half pay service, and transport to Ireland, the whole body of the old militia, 80.000 strong, her local militia not included. It is vain to imagine that if a civil war broke out, assuming from its very commencement a religious character, the fanatic .spirit would be confined to Catholics, or even to the Irish Orangemen. In such a war, if unhappily provoked, the hearts of nineteen twentieths of the British nation would be as fiercely en gaged as those of the most outrageous Orangemen. Then, Iv, shall be asked, what would be the end of all this? Why, that in such a crisis of universal exaspera tion, the acts of neither party could be reitrioned by soy sober authority or any Christian (cellos. The coon • 'I H E 14:V 14:N1 NG STA K. LOX I)ON.

As it is not to . be supposed that, at this advanced season of the year, General will act offensiv. ly, and as the Turks in Widdin are not strong enough to attack him with a probability of success, a considerable time will probably elapse before we hear of any military events of importance in Little Wallachia. We have had no news from the Archipelago for this fortnight : the latest account we have is, that. the three Admirals were going to Poem, to regulate the affairs of Greece with the Greek Government.

PRANKFORT, Nov. N. His Majesty the King of Wirtetnburg arrived here to-day, under the name pf Count de Teel', on his return from Weimar.—Journal de Frankfort, Nov. 19. [The Journal de Frankfort of this date does not mention the taking of Silistria, which, in the No. of the 18th, it announced as on official authority. The Austrian Choosier of the 14th November bas nothing relative to warlike operations.] The Gazelle de France of Monday, received last night, contains a letter from Frankfort, dated the 19th inst. a postscript to which describes a courier as having just passed through that city, who brings the news that Silistria has fallen. No particulars are given, but it is stated that the town had been taken by General Scilea- BATOIF, after three several assaults, in which the Rus siens suffered very severely, and in which the whole of the garrison peeLhed. The rumour of the capture of Silistria has been current for ware time, and it is nct impossible that it may be true, though the intelligence dropped by • a passing courier is not worthy of much attention. Supposing this intelligence correct, the next point of attack will, in .all probability, be Rudochtik, which the capture of Silistria will not-fail to . facilitate, for it opens a way 'for. any flotilla that the Russians may see 6t to send up the Danube. It was by such . means that Radsehuk was captured on the last occasion lin whic!t it fell into the hands of the Russians. Even ss ithout Rudschuk, the possession of Bulgaria . is now in a great measure secured f•r the winter at least. FALMOUTH, Ns,. 24.
