prosecutions for the breaches of the revenue laws. After ge ting the law reduced as nearly as possible to the perspicnona stake uf ‘ a,well-frauted code, the next object which the Committee of Maltstersin their discussions have proposed is, to get the process of the manufacture of malt unfettered from the present restrictions, and' leg open to improvement. At present they are confined to one process, when they ought to be permitted to vary it to meet the variation in the quality of the article. The present Malt Act holds out great encouragement to fraud, which it is the interest of the respectable portion of the trade, not less than that of the tiovernment, to prevent. They promise, if their alterations should be 'ultimately carried, a considerable reduction in the re venue. 1 . From a Return which has been made within a f ewl days, it appears that the quantity of malt manufactured ' in the United Kingdom, during the last year, was 29,617,207 bushels; of this quantity 22,596,634 were 'consumed by brewers and victuallers,and unly 3,383,264 by distillers.

All hope of an amicable adjustment of their differences seems to be entirely at an end. Private lei: tars. just received, agree in representing that the Turks have hitherto been generally successful in all their sallies t and that the Russian army is neither so nurne. row. nor so well appointed, as the one brought into the field last year. In the absence of any thing authentic, it may, however. be better to abstain from noticing at great !mob the current speculations on the present state of progress. A few days more, and iris more than probable tkat we shall be in possessive of very -im portant news from that quarter. The Moamar announces officially the appointmentl of Admiral Ds Rios as Maritime Prefect at Toulon. It is still doubtful whether this gallant Officer will accept the command of the naval part of the expedition to Algiers; the land forces to be employed against the refractory MY are rated as high as 30,000 men. By private letters from France, we learn that the law project providing pensions for poor Members of the Chamber of Peers was passed by a great majority ; but that the Duke Da MoNTYORIINCY and the Duke DS tosiz, who are both entitled to pensions, have re nounced their right, taking into consideration the pre sent difficult situation of France, and the burdens and miseries of the people. That France is in a la mentable state of embarrassment appears by the Re port of the Finance Committee, which speaks of woe and want, of poverty without hope. and rf discord without a prospect of union. The Reporter, M. Hu- mama, at the same time that he urged retrenchment, , and demanded a reduction of taxation, stated that at present little could be done : the burden of the public charges, though enormous, could for this year be but slightly diminished. Among other new imposts, the Chamber r.f Deputies has passed a law authorising an additional postage on letters sent by express (service des estafdtes) from France to England, Scotland, and Le land; and also an extra charge on letters sent by express in vessels at the charge of Government to America.— These, we presume, are the improvements lately spoken of, as about being made in the post-office department in France. A credit of 12,000,000 fs. has been asked, and will no doubt be granted; and this demand is construed into as indication of political projects connected nib the Turco Russian war. The drooght,whieh has lasted for more than a month, proved injurious to agriculture in several provinces.' F 'cider was rising in price, and it was feared that Oats would be scarce. Nevertheless, by ample supplies font other quarters, the price .of grain upon the whole was looking down. This, in the present condition of France, is looked upon as a matter of great importance—the lower orders being so miserably poor and wretched, that in many places, the most unpleasant consequences. were produce) by their te►istance to the payment of their tales. Private levers received this day from various parts of the Continent, the contents of which have only just come to our knowledge, speak with rather more con. fiience of propositions of peace. The Emperor CHOLAS is repieseoted as disposed to circumscribe his views—and that he is willing to make every sacrifice in order to avoid .a general conflagration throughout Europe. In this, we thir►k, he is right. He wool., now contelit himself with less than the overthrow of the Ott man throne: all he is said to want is to retire with honour from tl,e field, and to obtain some compensation for the expenses of the war.

It was stepped at Bignon's Brick Building, No. 146, as the south side of Broad street, and the Bridge Bank Buildings on the north side. From the last to the river, on both sides of Centre-street, leading to the BriJge, and front Bignon's Brick Building, nearly opposite the City Hotel, to Green.street, not a house that we resnembet has escaped the conflagration.
