Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle is not, we trust, intended to be after the manner,of that of Vienna. It is stated in letteri from Riga that the Emperor ALZWIDIR has _lssued an order to collect all the particular laws of the three German Provinces an flexed to his Empire, viz. Couriand, Livonia, and Es thonia ; in order that a code of law may be compiled from them, possessing as great a 'degree of unifor, mity as possible. Somf intention, it seems, is also' , thgertained of conferring a• National Representation on the people of these Provinces. The Emperor is tinderstood to have much at heart the prosperity of ads portion of his subjects, and it is certainly no tnean•blessing for which they have to thank him, that among other works of beneficence he has abo lished the degrading system of personal servitude prong' them. The laws relative to the suppression of servitude Int Esthonia, which had been consented to by all the Nobles of that Province, have not been yet published; bat this publication, we are informed, is only delayed until a similar consent can be obtained from the N. Nifty of Livonia, so that there may be a general. abolition at the same time through the whole of these territories. The of the students at Gottingen has been attended with very serious consequences. According to the last accounts, not less than fourteen of the students and a dozen of the hussars have been more or less wounded. A Swiss student and a hus sar are since dead of their wounds. The greater part of the fOreign students have quitted Gottingen defi nitively. The number of those of the country of Ha nover and foreigners who remain does not exceed five hundred. Something of a similar nature seem to have teen apprehended at another German university—that of J,..eipsic. For some months past, as we leafn from a Dresden article, there has been a great fermentation among the Leipsic students, occasioned by their divi sion into clubs and parties. The administrators of that establishment encountered the mithdy with ness: all meeting in clubs was prohibited, and the in•- sensates forthwith returned to their duty. The City of Aleppo, the capital of Syria, has lately become the theatre of a very violent religious perse cution. The Schismatic Greek Bishop of that City (follower of the oriental rites) had obtained through the medium of the Patriarch of Constantia•c,pie an Edict from the Grand Seignior, in virtue of which foutteen Catholic Priests were exiled, and the United Greeks (Catholics of the Greek Ritual) wore com manded to acknowledge the Schismatic Priests as their Pastors. A great many of the Catholics ref used obedience to the order; the prisons were filled with thel refractory, and 11 innocent people were assassinated.] ! Many of the richer individuals of the tribe fled into! the mountains of Libauia, and the whole, with a few. exceptions, remained stedfast to their faith. The Consuls of France and Austria interceded it. vain ; the Paulin replied, that he must execute the orders of his Savereign.. According, however, to ulterior, accounts, the PACHA had been induced' to suspend the execution of his order,, a.ul had published o Jilam or judicial sentence, by which he had declared, that he could not recognize, according to the precepts of the Koran, any superiority in one Christian profession over another, throughout the States of the PortrE, and that he therefore restored personal and religious liberty to the Catholics, and invited all vd:o had fled tier conscience-sok! to return. This sentence has, it seems, been transmitted to Coni,antinople, hut nobody has yet dared to submit it to the eyes of the SULTAN, because it is in open contradiction with his supreme Decree. The num ber of Catholics at Aleppo, against wHom this perse cution has been raised, is about 12,000. French 5 per Cents. Wednesday, 78 fr. 79 c. From art additional series of American Papers which we have received, we find that another person besides Anaumwor and AIIIIHIESTER, has been ar rested by the Americans, although not treated with equal barbarity; he i; stated to be a Colonel DICK SON, and charged also with exciting the Indians against the people of the United Slates. He was., taken between the rivers St. Peter and St. C ro i x , I whence he was brought to St. Louis, and surrendered up to the proper authorities, lie has since, however , been suffered to return, upon giving bonds for his I personal appearance, A certain Mr. OTALLAN, who is Republican Agent among the Red Indians, asserts farther, in a letter which he has addressed to the Governor of the Illinois Territory, that Lord SICLKIRK had also en tered the Indian territory without "any authority, and had been concerned with Dictcson in insti gating the Indians against the Americans. His Lordship, it is true, has solemnly disavowed any such design to this OTALLAN himself; but the man not apparently appreciating the value of a British Nobleman's declaration, persists in his calumnious accusation in a style which presents such a mixture of the absurd and the amusing, that we cannot re frain laying a characteristic passage of his letter before our Readers: " Knowing these things," he says, " what must have been my feelings on hearing that his Lordship had met with a favourable reception at St. Louis?— The Newspapers announcing AU arrival and general Scottish appearance, all tend to discompose NW, believ. ing, as I do, that he is plotting, with his friend Dr9c oaf, our destruction, sharpening the savage scalping knife, and colonising a track of county so remote as that of the Red River, for the purpose, no doubt, of monopolizing the fur and peltry trade of this river, the Missouri, and their waters—a trade of the first importance to our Western States and territories." The QUEEN appears to be fast approaching to a state of convalescence ; and Wednesday next has been fixed upon for her removal to Windsor. Thursday her MAJESTY received a visit from the Duke of You. In the afternoon her MAJESTY rode out in KEW gardens, in her small chaise, drawn by . .her pony, accompanied by the Duchess of GLOU.• CESTER and the Princess AdousTA. The Cleaer rude out again yesterday, soon after one o'clock, for a con siderable time, in Kew gardens. The PRINCE RE beNT arrived at Kew Palace yesterday afternoon, from the Stud House, Hampton Cone, on a visit to his !loyal Mother. The account of ber MAJESTY yesterday was, The QuEEN has passed a good night, and continues better."—The Duchess of Lit.oudEsTEa and the Princess AUGUSTA rode out in an open car riage yesterday in Kew gardens. _ _ Letters have been received from the Duke of CLA• RENCE. His Hoyal Highness is said to have aban doned the idea of re s iding abroad. _ _ The misses FITZC LA RENCE removed into their. house, iu South Audiey-street, on Thursday evening. the Dolce and Duchess of KENT will, it is said; leave England till the return of'Prince LEOPOLD, Prince LEOPOLD was detained nearly ail hour on his way to Dover, by a spoke of one of the wheels of his carriage breaking as he was going down the hill leading into Rochester, which nearly caused the car riage to bleak down. The Duke of GLOUCESTER continues to receive the most marked attention from the different• Civil and Military Authorities, in his tour through• France— . Royal Highness has left Bourdeauz for Agen, from whence he goes to the Baths of Canterets, 13a reges, and lialgneres; arid from thence to Lyons, by the way of Toulouse, Montpellier, Nismes, and Avig non. His Royal Highness then leaves France by the way of Geneva, intending to return.towards the end of October, and to visit Paris, atter visiting Stras burgh and Metz. Lord ELLINROROVQ/1 is nearly recovered from his indisposition ; but his Lordship expresses his determi nation to retire from the fatigues of office, as soon as possible. The Hon. Colonel Stvmorit, who has been seri ously indisposed with a typhus fever, is pronounced out of danger. The Earldom of Ossory is claimed by JAMES FITZ PATRICK, Esq. son of the late Captain JOHN FITZPA TRICK, of the Irish Brigade. . The persons from St. Helena who were lately de tained at Gravesend have departed for Hainburgh. The report that Miciame BERTILA so was one of the party turns out to be inconect. A new Silver Coinage is preparir;g at the Mint, 'de:tried by PisTauccs.--The half-crown has the George and Dragon on the reverse. • TIiE.PAITILION AT BRIGHTON.—The model for the new Pile is taken from the kremlin, at Moscow.

When finished, I.lre PRINCY iOitiENT will reside there whilst the new improvements are going on at Carlton House. 130CLOGXE, AUGUST I7.—Lord COCHRANE em barked. on Saturday morning. on board a fine new frigate, which arrived the preceding day from Eng. land. - He certainly goes to South America—they say Lima. The Hon. C „AV BRADSHAW and family, Hon. Byrum DANvans, and many other fashionables, took their leave of us yesterday for Spa. Lord and Lady EDWARD SOMSRSET expect to return home about the middle of November. As the Noble Lord commands the cavalry for the district, it is sup posed that they will return about the same period. Swxotlat Conoxarros.—Extract from a private letter Among other customs peculiar to this kingdom, I must mention one: the procession from the Chateau to the Cathedral is on horseback ; the horse the King rides.is never afterwards mounted on any occasion whatever. We went to-day to see him ; he has been brought down from one of the Royal studs, and is one of the most beautiful animals that fancy can paint ; perfectly white, with a tail touch ing the ground, and a mane hanging twelve inches below his neck, which looks like a rich bed of silver, so purely white and --) perfectly polished are they. This favoured animal Will pass the rest of his life pampered with every care, atd only exercised for his health. The horse which the late King rode at his coronation, is now living, and is 30 years old. He is g one of the Royal Haras, from which this: beautiful mature was brought." _ Foftstotr conseqnerree of vavious reports being in circulation that the Duty on Foreign Hops had been in many instances, considerably reductxl below what is prescribed by law on their impertation, the Committee of Hop Planters represenod Ole sane to the Lords of the Treasury through their Ch.tirman, and stated the great injury the Mutters of this King dom would sustain if such reductions were permitted, to which representation the Ibllewitig answer has been receivedt Treasury Chambers August 18, /slB " Sta—l eertroard.sd by the Lards C ' ommiss:on.rs his Majesty's Treasury, to acquaint you, that from the c; their Lordships' hive made, in consequence of your rtr,,sen ' tation of the 24th ultimo, it appears, that the Officers of the Customs hare in no In.:tar:cc nude any allowance on Foreign Hops, other than what is directed by the orders of this Bwird of the 1 1:5 of December, 1817, and the 29th of January, 1818. v40417.1'. ps r hundred height on such hops as had rot been kiln dried previous to importation, and that the allowance has in all eases beta made in conjunction with the Officers of Racist agree.. able to their Lordships directions, that the only further allow , ance whiSh has been made by the Officers of the Revenue in favour of the grads in question, has been on account of damage ' at:nuked by them during their voyage, and which has in no in stance been granted without the oath of the importer, as a proof of their having been shipped aboard In a sound and good condi : tion, an,tithis-ii!owance, it appears to them, the Hops are rut!- , tied to tinder the prod required by law, conceiving that the same is not superseded by . their Lordships' orders, which relate to the allowance of 121ba. per hundred weight for watta g e in re ! drying, and that it is also further stated by the ()dicers of the Customs, that in all cases wht re the proposed allowance has not been accepted, the trade has been called in, :Treea!de to the Cossolidatioe Act, and a rreater allowance adjudged by them.

Mr. ASTLEY'S Annual Prize Wherry (tyke the thirtieth that he has given in Lonour of his Maie,ty's and the kegsinfs Birth-days) was rowed kr !WA:. day by six free Watermen, as follows: 1.

WILLIAM DVNINICK, of Cherry Gen:kw—Par* They started for the First Heat at half-past far, from Westminster-bridge, with the tide flowing; aid the six candidates for the prism being all very power ful young men, there was very little difference is :le contest, until they came to Vauxhall-bridge, wilts' passing through the third arch, on their return by the Surrey shore, the six boats were so completely tcge ther, that the most experienced waterman or amatear was at a loss to say who should be the first; but by the superior dexterity of Thomas White of Stiand lane, he succeeded in turning his wherry quicker into the Surrey slime than the others, closely followed by John Richards, of Deptford, James Wood, Of 1 1111 gmford, and William Dunwick, of Cherry Garden'. White kept the lead, and some barges being moored in a line with the beacon facing Hungertord, it al forded an opportunity for the display of some skill by the competitors. Thomas White rowed cutide the barges, followed by James Wood, who was out manoeuvred by John Richards and William Danwick rowing between the barges and the beacon.—The first heat was therefore decided in fivour of Thomas White, Strand-lane, John Richards, of Deptford, and William l)unwick, of Cheery Garf....us. They were twenty-five minutes rowing the first heat, which is calculated to be three miles. The Second Heat commenced at a quarter before six —White, Richards, and Dunwick, starting for the Prize \Wherry, &c. which was very sharply contested. Thomas White, an above-bi idge man, being better acquainted with the inlets and sets of the tide. wail the Prize Wherry. The gallies of the Funny Club and numerous other% with a multiplicity of boats of every description, n' tended; and Mr. Asti.xy, as usual, conducted the wager himself, in a four-oared cutter, which woe rowed in a masterly stile.
