NIP rives necessity of attending to contracts of mortgages prior and sub sequent to the depreciation. For it would have been unjust that men should continue to receive in hard !Raney the amount of mortgages advanced in a deteriorated cunency. These previsions were directed to nothing less than to avoid the overturning of all landed property, in the presence of the laws and institutioas of the country; for these provisions Meted ealy to contracts. and did not extend to the ordinary dealings mit comdsardel teatime tions on short terms. In the United States of Aintries, where, as in Brazil, landed property is quite free ot allodlal—Aurbett the mort gaging system, customary in old commies, does not prevail—where there are no contracts of many years. that can be feredkosed—and, finally, where the circulation of property Is easy and rapid--there is no occasion to attend to long-winded payments, and there, con sequently, no measure was adopted to prevent this chimerical overturning of fortunes, because the country was placed under different circumstances; and its circulating medium, which else where arrived*at the most terrible state of depreciation, was im proved by the establishment of a new bank. The only regula tion there was, which indicated the price of paper and of metallic money, was only levelled at the payment of the shares of this new bank, and at nothing else. It is written, and every one know s how the Government of these States acted on an occa sion similar to our's, although our paper is less depreciated. I shall now ask to which of the nations referred to do our circum stances bear the closest resemblance? Certainly to those of a new nation like ourselves. An instance happened here of a house sold at various payments, and it was shown that six centos of MI in notes was the same thing as de canoe its metallic money. In the first place, I doubt whether there are amongst us many Contracts for the sale of property at terms of years s sad especially of a great number of years, as has been assumed. Oar transactions are rapid, at terms of some months, and very rarely can they now.a-days be extended to two or three years and up wardi. But, granting a case which may be realised in some instances. would it not perchance be cartel's, that we should have to employ the same expense, the same labour sadingustry, to acquire the same amount in metallic money which we have so acquired in notes? The fall of some species of merchandise would be compensated by the rise of others. Those who have already lost would gain, and those who have already realized gains would suffer some loss. General utility, and the happiness of a few, require—nay, de mand, some private and individual sacrifices. Another Honour able Deputy, who opposed the loan. Arils that it would be idle to contract it, for it was already contracted.. This 14We/is much applauded, and, in fact, it may be said that the loan is actually contracted, because we owe to the holders of the notes their amount, or value. But it does not follow from hence, that, in order to better our actual condidun, which is a most melancholy one .it Would be scarcely su ffi cient to apply and designate funds, theas Honourable Deputy observed, for the recall and gradual extinction of the notes. Let the Chamber reflect that the already contracted loan, which, in the opinion of the Honourable Deputy, and the holders of the notes, is a noxious, ruinous, and a monstrous loan, as its policies (which are notes) have the privilege of being current as money, and of being received as cash at all public offices, as well as In trade and commerce. Considering that many nations, renowned for their political economy and their cal culations of real interests, have contracted new loans upon fa vourable conditions, In order 'to pay off old. that were burden some, and that if England, France, and even the United States of North America, have done so, and made similar operations, in order to reduce their interests, and to liberate themselves from a greater burden, Brazil bas greater reasons for con tracting a new loan, to extinguish an old one, which is fatal, because its policies, hich are superabundant, have the character of ready money. At all events, I believe that the argument of the Honourable . Deputy, instead of opposing, favours the idea of a new loan. The article of the proposed law, which treats of the purchase of the notes in specie at the market price, was finally at tacked as unjust. Is it not unjust," says an Honourable Deputy, " that the Government, having given me a note for one hundred thousand rec., should afterwards come to give me fifty thousand tees for the same note?" I should answer by asking the Ho- Pourable Deputy if he does not purchase with these 50,000 ryes the same quantity of goods which. he could buy with the 100,000 rev. ?—For assuredly this is the Cale. What Joined= is, therefore, in this? S uck are the arguments by which I defend the article of the proposed law against the opiplons that have been ventured.— In the mean time, Mr. President, I declared immediately, on the first day of th e debate, to the Chamber, that, notwithstanding ifs appearing advantageous to Government to obtain .a vote of credit to an amount equal to three-fifths of the Bank circula tion, in order that there might be immediately a solid and 'lsl. hie security of the notes being called in; nevertheless, the same Government would not insist upon the total amount of the cre dit demanded in the proposed law being voted. I declared, more over, that I should not hesitate to conform to the reduction of the credit to a metallic sum sufficient to withdraw from circula tion one-fourth part at least of the depreciated notes--establish ins at the same time a permanent fund for the gradual with thawing of the remainder from circulation during the following years. This is the opinion I meats to support hereafter; for, I believe that, by removing immediately one-fourth part from lls mass In circulation, the premium and exchange must considerably improve, and, consequently, the State most gain, and the public must cease to suffer. The diminution of the premium amounts now to the greatest possible economy in the actual public expenditure. I beg the Chamber will reflect on this; and It is for the sake of thiagreat economy that I now claim all its attention. It remains for me to advert to the amendments of the Committee with respect to the 7th Article. I shall frankly own that they do not answer the end which the Committee, as well as all of us, desire. Re nouncing the remedy of a meta llic loan, the Committee contented Itself with the promise that the nation s hould pay, and with the esta blishment of a Sinking Fund, at the annual rate of live per cent. on the existing mass of notes .in circulation. It is. evident that hardly in five of six years we should obtain any improvement of the credit of the circulating paper ; and shall we be able to Con tinue this for such a length of time, considering the state we are now in? What effect would a mode of extiaction.produce, which must * continue in operation for 30 or 40 years? It does not, how ever, appear to me that the amendments can pass in the state they are now conceived ; it will establish the method of . redemption. offered therein, but never renounce the means of a metallic loan, which could 50 much the earlier diminish the superabundance of the notes. Combining in this. manner the amendments with the proposed law, I should be of s opinion that they might pass. THE NEW POST OFPICE. .Notwithstandlng the exertions that have been made to open the new Post-office this day--the anniversary of his Majesty's birth-day, it has been found impracticable to complete the arrange- , menu, and some days will elapse before the Oasis take possession ' of their respective.departmenu.

It exhibited at that epoch—with the exception of those journals which were more professedly the echo of the Ministers—a fair picture of the public mind and feel ings : one leading print in particular, managed with equal power and patriotism, kept alive the spirit of the people, and greatly contributed to sustain them in those times of trial. But the columns of a British news paper have long. ceased to be stamped with the impress of popular opinion : and yielding, some of them to party influences, but many more to the most depraved corruptions, each colours—according to his own pre- judiced, or knavish views—the interpretation of public events. It is foreign to our immediate purpose, to trace the causes of this degeneracy here : but its illustration, on the occasion of the recent changes in France, is par ticularly striking. The Morning Chronicle and the Morning Advertiser both imagine, that—whatever may be its results in France —this revolution in her Cabinet is matter of decided con gratulation for England : that it will strengthen the hands of the present Ministers, by securing for them a more cor dial co-operation in their plans of foreign policy-- proh pudor !=and that they will now be able to guarantee the integrity of Turkey, and coerce his Northern Victor as they please ! The Morning Chronicle says, indeed, that ho has " much more to say," and we shall be glad to hear it from him. In the meantime, can the Morning Chronicle and the Morning Advertiser be insensible to the influence on European Cabinets, which these changes will necessarily exercise ? •Do they regard with indifference the re-consolidation of those despotic interests—the pre- ponilerance of which was becoming every day faintei and fainter, as their inter-coherence was enfeebled by prevail ing popularities—and the revival, in all its inveteracy of the Holy Alliance ? For, tantamount to such revival— taken together with the compleiion of our own Ministry is the coincidence of M. DE POLIGNAC at Paris, with Prince METT Ea x tut at Vienna. The Times publishes a letter from his correspondent in Paris, which reflects in a lively manner the operation of this astounding Ordonnance upon that sensitise people. It is characterised there as a sudden darkening of the horizon —a bursting of the storm: it plunged the capital into consternation, and sunk the value of the public funds. Pottox Ac, the Prime Minister, is universally detested: BOUItMONT— Ripointed to the War' Department—is an unprincipled renegade, greedy of money, and careless by what means it comes ::he sold Louts XVIII. in the hundred days, and deserted from La Vendee to NAPOLEON at Waterloo: he, :• too, is equally detested with PoLioNAC. COURVOISI ER —4linisier of Justice—is a Congregationist and a Jesuit : RE NEVlL . LE—firefect of Police—is a fanatic, and a Jesuit too: MONTBEL, Mayor of Toulouse—Minister of Public Instruction—is -the friend and follower. of de VI t tat. E, :and Champion of his disastrous policy FRASSYNOUS, Bishop of Hermopolis—that jesuitical' organ and hierarch, too well known even in England to need other description than his nameis to appoint to all ecclesiastical preferments. There is only N. de la BOUlt DON NAT IL, whose character is .allowed to •be firm and uncompromising ; but he is represented. to •be as' formidable . as he is firm, and likely to ad ' here—through any conjuncture • of .the State—with ferocious obstinacy to his ultra-despotic principles. "/t leas difficult," says the Correspondent of the TIMES," to choose names more disagreeable to France. The pre sent Ministry is one which our most exaggerated Ultra* could not' have hoped to see in power, even 'in their Wildest driams." 'Stich has been their effect, and such 'the expression of opinion on the other side concerning these ominous appointments. But,' says - the Times—" With the per sonal qualifications and antecedent history of the men composing the new French Ministry, we have nothing to do :" as if their personal qua/cations-unless our pleasant contemporary speaks literally of their " singe-et; tigre"•accomplishments—ought to weigh nothing in their selection al Ministers of State ! As if no deductions drawn from antetiecUnt character, no exploits illustrative of theirl political Mee; eoglit to inileence the nomination of indivi duals; called to take a *share in theiniernment - of the world !

That it is not necessary to have been distinguished in former life by a career of political purity, or by the ad vocacy of any great or good principle, the dissemination of which might improve the condition, or advance the intelligence of nations ? But the hour is gone by, when we should heed the answer of the Times. He is leagued now against the people, as in days past he was banded with them. We disclaim all factious feeling, we have no revolutionary partiality ; but we cannot contem plate without unmitigated sorrow the change in our neigh-_ bour's government, when coupled with demonstrations which are too visible in our own. We repeat, that this is a crisis which demands all our watchfulness ; that the most perfidious councils are in activity ; and that a line of Europe an policy is again laid down to which — if England become accessory—it will redound equally to her detriment and her dishonour. The Marquis of BARBACENA has arrived at Laleham, from his mission to the Court of Bavaria. The Empress of BRAZIL travels by way of Brussels and Bruges to Ostend, where a yacht will be in readiness to receive her Imperial MAJESTY. The EMPRESS is not expected to arrive at Portsmouth before the 20th of this month. German Papers have been received this day, but they do not convey further accounts from the theatre of war than we already possessed. Indeed the only article of interest which we find in these papers, is a letter from Smyrna, by which we learn that Admiral RICoRD is determined strictly to enforce the blockade of the Dardanelles, and to seize every prohibited commodity— particularly provisions for Constantinople,—no matter whether conveyed in English or in French ships. The following are extracts : FRONTIERS OF WALLACHIA, JULY 13. The epidemic has latterly abated in some degree at Bucharest, but in the country still rages u before. At Slobosia, M. Von Schlegel, physician to the Russian staff, has fallen a victim to his seal in the service. We are entirely in the dark respecting the operations of Baron Von Geismar. Some say he is before Widdin and Nicopolis, while others seem be is in Rachova. We are without any recent authentic news of the main army under Count Diebitsch ; but it is asserted that, having successfully crossed the Balkan, he has arrived at Aidos. The expected reserve of 40,000 men has not yet joined the army. Serb Mahound, the Governor of Silistris, has been sent to Russia with 800 of his troops; but Haggi Aches= is stIU at Muria. Only part of the garrison con sisted of regular troops; but the whole were robust handsome men. We are equally without certain information respecting Giurgeve and Rudschok ; it is reported, indeed, that Kutscbut Achmet had lately oesociatid with General Kisselew for the sue. render of the fortress ; but we cannot learn that these negotiations have led to any result. Reports of negotiations for peace, or of an armistice, are again in circulation. • SMYRNA, Jun= 27. • The English brig Mary, Captain Plum ; and the .French brig, L'Hearm, Captain Bauner, which sailed from this port for Con stantinople in the first half of 'Ws math, have been stepped at the Dardanelles by Admiral Ricord ; and it having been found en searching them that their cargoes consisted partly of provisions, every thing of this description was seised and taken oat. The ships then proceeded on their voyage. There is every reason to sup pose that the Admiral, whose forbearance may have encouraged some speculations, will restore their merchandise, and not increase by cooliscatihn the distress under which commerce already labours. He wiU consider that the vessels did: not attempt to violate the blockade, but suffered the Rimini to come on board without dilliculty—it not being expected that they would be treated with a rigour, which is lawful certainly, but which had not hitherto been exercised by his squadron. Admiral Rkord has in formed the Consul General of the Netherlands that the blockade will be mat strictly enforced, and that aU provisions will be seised. FRANKFORT. Ave. 4. .

Our domestic intelligence fOr the last few days is of a Very distressing character. The beginning of last week was marked by a storm—particularly inScotlana—of such unprecedented violence, and so destructive in its effects, that it must entail distress and ruin on many a family. Whole socks of cattle, and fields of growing Corn, have been swept away, or covered with the debris of the rapid and Swellen'Streams ; and, what is still more melancholy, some lives have been lost. Besides the destruction of pri vate' property; which is very great—and which in many instances eannoi be repaired—im find, on looking at the details of this dreadful visitation, that the pi:blic must suffer severely. The lines of communication with the north of SCptlan,d are broken end it must lisi.'ome a question whether the Parliamentary Commissioners. for Highland BOatia and Bridgee,.or the different counties in which these loses are sustained, are to be at the expense of repairing the broken bridges and impassable roads. The Hobart Town Papers; to the 28th March, state; that the managers of the Agricultural Company of the aisteico lony have fallen out amongst themselves ; and they,are about to form a new establiihment on the east coast of New. Holland, where sugars are to be cultivated. By the new schedule of. duties it will. be seen, that the following is the difference between the amount of duties in the two colonies New South Wales the duties upon brandy and hollands-gine, '2E., pet. gallon* less than they'are in VIIII Diemen's ; upon runt.the duty is 18..6k less ; upeif wine, • • the reduce .ef. the British colony* the Cape4l Good Hope; the duty levied in New South Wiles; is.)b per Cent. less tbaii - at Yen Dieman's Land on the other hand, the duty _levied in Van Dienian's Land on tobacco, is 6d. per pound . lam than is levied in New South Wales ; bolt it is to be recollected that tobacco is a staple article of the growtliof that colony. . ~- . r 4 t r } kv GAT S ;) • , RUSSIAN WAR With wonder and emotion we have perused the London journals since the accounts of the ministerial changes i n France have reached us. Insensible to the evils likely to be spread over the-whole face of Europe by this new accession of France to the METTERNICH faction, oar journalists felicitate us on the fearful event; and, shut ting their eyes, in perversity or ignorance, to the recur rence of the anti-constitutional spirit and jesuitism set to work the destruction of public freedom, and improve ment of mind throughout the world, they see only, in this political junction of the French cabinet with the Goths, the means of curbing the ambition of Russia. Now we maintain that the conjoint efforts of all Europe must fail to arrest the triumphant progress of that formidable Empire. Her present attitude is the work of our own blind folly. The idiots who fostered her might, in that nursery of pub lic danger --the Holy Alliance, now strive in panic to pull down the giant they themselves raised for the combat...- whose force they strengthened, and whose hand they armed. Does Lord WELLINGTON and the other pre cious relics of the CASTLEREAGH association remember the very kind readiness with which they so liberally acquiesced in the innocent longings of the covetous Ca.% a, and so amiably ceded poor Poland to the op pressor without compunction, as without one ray of foresight ? What would they now give to rupture that connexion, to which Russia will adhere with a fond em brace—which neither intrigue nor force shall be able to sunder ? What labour and art will now be employed to persuade the Polander that the chains bound upon him, with our willing consent, are a disgrace to bear ? As we are a party in the cause of his tears, we now to avenge them, are perhaps about to instigate the flow of his dearest blood—at least it is here alone we can reach the enemy with effect. Our old powerful in fluence over the commercial mind of Courland and the Finlands can be, in this projected war, of no avail. The obstruction of trade in hemp, timber, hides, and tallow,will, in this instance, fail to produce the usual treason in our favour. The commerce of the Dardanelles were a glorious indemnity ; and the hope of grasping it will encourage the Russian people to unite in fortitude and perseverance. On the Black Sea we can only make fruitless parade. Varna and Sizeboli, numerously garrisoned, and supplied to the full of their magazines, will still stand, under the Eagle flag, in scorn of our strongest fleets. France will not dare to court disaster and plague in the present field of war ;—England can less afford it;—while poverty and winter chain Germany down,—METTEas lc It pru dently contenting himself with making balls for his French and English dupes to fire off against the enemy. The timely occupation of Constantinople by Christian forces can alone rescue that tempting city from Russia ; —but to which of the Powers is so nice a guardianship to be confided ? The Turk will be as jealous of an Eng lish, French, or German force near the walls of his proud capital, as he is of approaches by Russia.—Again, how long should we be necessitated to keep camp in Turkey ? And which of the Allies (ifs joint expedition were dis patched), would be the last to linger fondly behind ? Indeed, we thinktonstantinople must fall ; and although contemporary • Journals wisely treat such an event as a matter of *no fearfid consequence, we regard the Russian conquest of Constantinople as fatal to the independence of the old world, and more to •be .de plored, than would have been the fall of St. Petersburgh, under NAPOLEON'S power. The consolidation of the Greek power, sufficiently strengthened to resist invasion by Russia, is the only chance we have of preserving those enviable countries from the sceptre of the Grand AUTOCRAT. • • I * CI'P Y.
