It is now known that the despatches which were sent out contained imperative orders to explore the coast, and to keep up very strictly the blockade of Algiers, and pattictilarly to prevent English vessels laden with ammunition from enuring the port. It appears to be certain that Spain has refused to allow a depot for stores, and for the reception of the sick. to be established at Carthagcna. It is said that it is to be established at Mahon. but the Spaniards aho are in this town do not believe it, and think, that if a depot is at all authorized, it will be at Ivies, and that the pretended portable houses which are embarking in this port, s ill be made use of in that island.—National.

The exposures which have been recently made of the failure of this colony, both in the philanthropical and commercial purposes for which it was established, and the enormous and fruit- I less expenditure which it has imposed upon England. appear to have occasioned no little irritation in that party, under whose auspices it originated, and who have for so many years annually puhli•hed flourishing accounts of its prosperity and sticaess.• They seem to have been so patticularly annoyed with the publi cation of a document in the 28th number of the " West Indian Re porter," which exhibited the details of the annual coat of this de *tractive settlement, that the editor of their " Anti-Slavery Reporter" has been rash enough to denounce it as a forgery. To this accusa tion the " West Indian Reporter" has published a reply, front which we make the following extracts, not only as confirmatory of its compiler's veracity, but also as elucidating a point of no ordinary national importance, at a period when retrenchment in every part of the public finances is so urgently demanded. In the last. number of the " Anti-Slavery Reporter" we find what the editor is pleased to cull an " Authentic Account of Sierra Leone, with Reasons for not abandoning it." This account we shall hereafter examine ; at present our business is with the follow ing paragraph By way of set-off to our statement of the cost of slavery (No. 874 the editors have given us what they call' an unpublished ofti. cial document,' made up to the end of P 126, of the cost of Sierra Leone. This unpublished official doesiment' we believe to' be no. thing more than such a modification of those mendacious statements of Blackwood, which have been already so effectually exposed a they think die public will swallow. If the document they speak of be in ,existence, why do not they produce its We do not believe that any such document exist*. Indeed it bears on its front the charac ters of forgery. And yet it is honed as an official document, under the sanction of the West India Committee. A farther presumption of the fabricated chatacter of this pretended document may be drawn from the last number of the Quarterly Review." To this charge the " West-Indian Reporter" replies— - " Let the reader understand that this mendacious statement,' which bears on its front the characters of forgery,' is a Parliamen. tary Paper, No. 176 of the . Papers presented to the Finance Com. niittee, printed for the use of that Committee, and is the identical paper which Sir Henry Parnell, the Chairman, refers to in the fol. lowing passage from his work un Financial Reform : " The great sum of five millions seven hundred thousand pounds has already been expended in carrying into effect the measures of Government, or co-operating with other countries, for putting down Idle slave trade ; and the annual current expense amounts to near' 400,0001. But the attempt appears to have altogether failed. The frnvernments of France, Spain, and Portugal, according to the Par. liamentary Papers, make no efliirts whatever, to enforce the laws for putting down the traffic ; and the persons in authority in Cuba and Brazil not only neglect to execute the laws, but in some cases have been engaged in it themselves ; so that our treaties and laws, where such parties are concerned, are so much waste paper ; and spend ing money to try to give effect to them is a perfect folly. The Afri. can Institution say, in their' oth report, The slave trade has in. creased during the last year ; and, notwithstanding the number of prises taken. it continues to rage with unabated fury.' Surely here are sufficient reasons for saving the 400,0001. a-year now ex. pended to so little purpose.' " Our statement we reprint. " The expense of Sierra Leone had been, from 1807 to 1824, in. elusive, as follows : Payments to the Company previous to the transfer of Settlement 2117,700 Army • • • • •• 781.781 Navy •1• Ordnance • • 188.178 Civil Establishment . .... .

Of the young Greeks who have been educated at Munich, two (the brothers Riao) having completed their studies in the corps of cadets at Munich, and risen to therank of lieutenants, have returned home, to exchange the Bavarian uniform for that of their own country.

The Earl of DERBY presented a petition from the borough of Preston, in favour of a rue trade in India and China. Some private bills on the table were read a third time and passed. The Duke of BEAUFORT presented two petitions, the subject of which was not heard below the bar. The Earl of CASSHAS presented two petitions from the ha rough of Ayr, for throwing open the trade to India and China. The Earl of ELDON presented a petition from Ilaverfurdwest and Monmouth, against any alteration it. the Welch Judicature (as was understood.) The Farl of ESSEX presented a petition from the Irish Mining Company, praying for a bounty on lead. The Earl of HAHEWOOD presented a petition Intm Hull against the renewal of the Fast India Company's Charter. The noble earl likewise presented several petitions from places in the West Riding of Yorkshire, praying the removal of the Abe:es to Wakefield for that riding. The Duke of NORFOLK presented a similar petition from a place in the West !tiding of Yorkshire. Lord NAPIER presented a petition from Dumfries (as was ur.. destood,) pray lug for a free trade to India and China. Viscount NIELV LLB presented • petition from Edinburgh against the additional duty on spirits. The Earl of MALNESBURY moved fur a series of returns of spirits distilled from corn and sugar, for the four years preceding the 5:1) January, 11128, and the four years proceeding the 6th Ja nuary, 1100, showing the average of those two periods. The noble earl wait aware of the great distress which pressed upon the West India burred, and was desirous of seeing it alleviated, if it could be Clone without injury to other classes of his majesty's subjects. Now the "imposed duty of a shilling a gallon on British corn spirits was one, he conceived, which was likely to prove injurious to distillers ; and he was not sure whether it would not tend to increase smug. gling. The increase. duty was at the rate of 14 per cent. He wished, if that duty were to be imposed, that a similar one should be put upon rum ; that both might be placed on the saute footing. He was not, however, anxious of seeing the consumption of .pirits in. creasing, but the contrary, bring persuaded that it was much mare ' beneficial to the country, and more wholesome for the industrious dames to drink malt liquor. land HOLLAND observed that it was not the flexile of the West India proprietors to have the duty imposed on British spirits ; and be much doubted whether the revenue would be benekted in the manner anticipated. After a few farther observations from the Earl of 111A1,31ES. BURY, the returns wee ordered. ' Mr. By aa sr., and other members of the House of Commons, brought up three private bills.
