We have received very disastrous accounts vages occasioned by the ovet flowing of the Elt waters of this river having been augmented in Bohemia by incessant rains, and the melting of the show, which bad remained upon the heights in that country, the re stilt has been, that on their reaching Saxony, they over their banks and inundated the country to a ton. siderable extent. At Dresden all the lower parts of tap city were under water, and the'comastfnication of tho, inhabitants with each other took place in boats. Im mense piles of Bohemian wood, which were deposited near the river, have been swept away, and the Elbe% from Dresden to Wittenberg, is covered with floating timber, and various other objects which had been carried away by the flood. Considerable damage has been done ro agriculture also in the neighbourhood of the river. Several South American merchants have arrived here, principally front Rio Janeiro, Buenos Ayres, and Colom bia. It is pile their purchases hive not as yet been very considerable, they having come chiefly to establish cor respondences and make connections. The orders they have given are mostly for Jinni cloths. Large put.- chases of cloths of middling quality continue to be made by the English. This article is also in great demand in other directions; so that our manufactures have resumed a considerable degree of activity. The same *prosper ous state of things exist in Silesia and Bohemia. Our wool also is beginning to be much sought after. The last wool sales in Saxony and Silesia were very satis factory. Great quantities have been purchased for Hamburgh houses, to be manufactured for the South American trade. BERLIN, JULY 12. The Vistula has overflowed its banks. In the neigh bouring villages the water has done great damage, and has already risen twelve feet. DRESDEN. JULY a. The water s of the Elbe attained the greatest height in the night of the 28th ult. Tire stream has now receded within its ordinary channel. The traces of desolation that it has lett behind are very melancholy. The burn ing of a great dyke near Prague, occasioned by vast torrents of rain, is said to have been the chief cause of this misfortune. the ra- THR FUNDS. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Etoile seems quite delighted at the idea of our sending a few troops to Portugal, but seems so ignorant of the policy of the British Cabinet as to suppose our oh. ject in doing so would be to abet the principles of the Holy Alliance. The same journal has a sort of mystifying article re specting Hayti, and the Commissioners from that coun try now in Paris, which throws no light whatever on the rumoured negotiations for recognizing its independence. The 'toile states, on the authority of accounts from Frankfort of the 14th inst: " that in the conferences which have taken place at Johannisberg, it has been decided that in consideration of the present state of things, and the low price of goods, the Peace Contingent of the German Confederation shall experience a con siderable redaction.* If such a resolution has been come to in Germany„ and we see no reason to doubt it, it furnishes another strong proof that the peace of Europe is not likely to be disturbed, and that all the reports of assistance being given to Spain, to enable her to recover South America, are but mere vapouring. The last accounts from Rio de Janeiro stated, that the Emperor of Brazil bad appointed a new Governor for Pernambuco, with a view of conciliating the two parties. It would appear, however, from the following intelligence, received direct from the latter place, that the concession had either not been communicated,or had not produced any effect upon the authorities there. It presents a melancholy picture of the state of that town : PIZENAMBUCO, JUNE s. lam sorry to inform you, that are here in the most distressed state from the blockade, of which I see no prospect of termination, except from want of provi sions; the orders of the Commodore being to confine himself strictly to the blockade, unless he should receive different instructions from Rio, which cannot be ex pected until the rejection of the proposals made to Joze Carlos shall be known there. The stock of farina and dried fish is exhausted, and flour is diminishing very fast. To add to our distress, the supply of catch is also nearly cut off, the troops from Paraiba, which are in this neighbourhood, having been successful in several skirmishes with the Pernambuco troops which were sent oat against them. The situation of the lower orders is truly appalling—thousands of them ate, I assure you, literally starving. As to trade,it is completely nominal. We are doing nothing in exchange, and there is great difficulty in collecting what is due from the merchants. Hamburgh Papers reached us this morning to the 16th inst. The following are extracts : HANOVER, JULY 15. His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge has returned to Mont Brillant, from his tour in the princi• palicy of Osnaburg. Count Munster is expected from Johannisberg to• morrow. The Prince Bishop of Hilderheim, who was setiously indisposed, is recovering. SCHWERIN, JVLY We flatter ourselves with the hope that his Majesty the King of Prussia will arrive at Dobberam at the beginning of August. We expect at the same time, their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cam- bridge and the Grand Duke Nicholas and his consort. CHRISTIANIA, JULY 2. After the breaking up of the camp, the Viceroy and his consort will spend, as we hear, a few weeks at the baths of Ransbosa, and return by the latter end of this month to Stockholm, there being, it seems, no intention of his coming to Norway. The Storthing has now drawn up the Address unani mously resolved upon to the Government, declaring its resolution respecting the Royal proposals for changes ut the Constitution. It contains a strict abstract of the motives of the resolution, which are on the whole the ' same as those alleged by the Committee for its disap proval. The Address is signed by Count Wedel Jarls berg, as President. SWITZERLAND, JULY S.

The Infants and the Princesses remain at Ma drid. The fall in Guebhardes loan, at Paris, has not made much impression here; and yet the deterioration of the public credit is rather an unfortunate circum stance, at a moment when there is such a necessity for contracting a new loan, but, unfortunately, here they never seem to look towards the future. To judge by the little attention paid here it present to the propositions made for this new loan, one would suppose that there was neither a wish nor necessity for money. It is said, however, that one of the persons endeavouring to get a contract for a loan here is about to set out for London on that subject :his name is Groves. The consequence of this carelessness and impotence is, that all the branches of administration are crumbling to ruin, The chiefs in the public offices seem only occupied in satisfying their vengeance or their cupidity ; every thing and place is bought and sold, and the bargains made with the most •shatneless effrontery. These things are now so public, that complaints and reproaches are beird from all sides. The vi ell-disposed Royalists are in affliction, and despair of their country's situation. The Constitutionalists .are alternately in a state of stupor and alarm. Both parties blame France for not putting an end to some of the most crying evils, which she might 'easily do with the aid of the force she has in the country. If some step of this kind be not taken, either the French army must remain here eternally, or else the moment it quits the country an explosion will take place, the consequences of which cannot fail of being most disas trous to all parties. The amnesty is now converted, by means of its ex ceptions, into an engine to persecute or mulct the most peaceable citizens. The pretended friends of religion and b r i 2alty are straining their utmost efforts to discre dit one and the other, and there is little doubt but they will succeed, though not meaning to do so. Al ready strange sentiments are hazarded, both upon one subject and the other. This is the sad picture we have before our eyes here; nor is the prospect in the pro vinces anything of a more cheering nature. The re pugnance to pay the taxes is becoming every day more strongly pronounced. This feeling is still further aug mented by the ignorance and inaptitude of the Col lectors of the Revenue, men chosen for no other reason but their furious attachment to the Royal cause. The Conscription (Quidata), also meets upon all points with the most serious obstacles. The people cannot be persuaded but that the new levies are destined for South America. Several fresh arrests have taken place, amongst others the rich jeweller Cabrero, and Captain Sierra. The charge against them is, having taken part in the affair of the 20th of March, 1820. The day before yesterday four men were hanged for a robbery committed in the house of a wax merchant ; seven others are, it is said, quickly to share the • same fate. These numerous examples do not seem in the least to check the evil— robberies are committed daily and hourly here. Within the last few days an O&cer of the Royal Volunteers concealed himself in the house of one of his friends, a watchmaker, and when the family went out s , he broke open a desk, took the money it contained,as also several °false most valuable watches. lle has been taken up, and will, it is thought, notwithstanding his royalism, be elevated to the honours of the gibbet.

This being the Anniversary of his Idaszrrv's Coronation, was observed here with every demonstration of loyalty and respect.-- The shipping in the harbour displayed their variety of national co lours tbronghout the day, and in the evening hung their rigging with lanterns; a grand display of fire-works was let off oa the Creicent ; and a dinner, on a very large scale, was given at the Albion Hotel, with the united intention she of welcoming their venerated townsman, Sir Wmuass Crams, on his return to his na tive country and fellow-inhabitants. Nearly two hundred persons of the first respectability sat down to an excellent repast, over which Sir Tawas Gaar presided in a very able manner; his preface so the arse toast cot the day, The King," was eloquently danced, eighwiestieally sheered.

Last night the splendid deedratiotis which guished the Coronation Fete on Monday night were re. petted, with, if possible, additional effect ; and the g dens boasted an unprecedented galaxy of rank 4174 beauty. The great novelty of the evening was the pt. formance of the French juggler, who, so far as ag;h!. in the exercise of balls, knives, and even large br.iy . rings, was concerned, surpassed the best effot is of the Indians, whose feats excited universal admiration. French juggler exhibited also a series of balancing which were truly astonishing. A musical battle piece was per. formed with great effect, which was composed for the occasion. Numerous distinguished families were present. LONDON ADJOURNED SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) These Sessions commenced this morning, in the Ez• chequer Court, Guildhall, before Aldermen ANSLEY, Co; BROWN, and KEYS, Mr. Serjeant A RABIN, awl Sheriffs WHITTAKER and LAURIE. William Moorcroft and homas Clarke were indictel fur an assault upon Porter, a little chimney-sweep, only 12 years of age. The case was clearly proved br a number of respectable. witnesses, and the Jury stantly found them Guilty. Mr. Serjeant ARAIIN, in passing the sentence of the Court on them, animadverted on their brutal conduct, particularly Clarke; and they were sentenced to impri. sonment in Giltspur•street Compter, Clarke for twelve months, and Moorcroft for sit months. They wer e then taken from the bar and handcuffed, but were called back by the Court, who informed them, that such wai 'their inhuman conduct, the Court thought proper to alter their place of confinement, and ordered them kr the same term in the House of Correction, with the ad. dition of hard labour during the time.
