The windows in the five churches, the public offices, and almost all the private bouses, were broken : the iron rodfs of the Church of St. Nicholas, and of many private houses, were blown off. That of the immense house of Messrs. Masloff was carried to the distance of half a went. Se veral houses are entirely destroyed. Some notion of the damage done to the gardens, &c. by the hail, may be formed, when we state that it continued for a whole hour, Ind that hailstones, weighing from two and a half to seventeen ounces, were the size of a hen's and even a goose's egg.

On the 26th April a general treaty of amity, com merce, and t►avigation, was concluded at Washington, between Denmark and the United States of North America, by which the contractors agree to treat each other on the sane footing as the most friendly nations. The treaty is in twelve articles, and is signed by the Danish Minister M. Peder Pedersen, who lately returned to Copenhagen by way of Hamburgh, for Denmark, and by Mr. Henry Clay, Secretary of State for the United States. ' A monument was erected on the Bth of this month in the island of Fohr, in memory of his Majesty's visit in 1824, till which time no Danish King had visited the island since Waldemar 'IL The extraordinary and long continued heat has caused much sickness here. The anniversary of the election of his Majesty as Crown Prince was celebrated yesterday with great festivity, at Drouningholm ; it was also the fete of the. Crown Princess. A vast number of persona went to pay their respects to the King and the Royal Family. In the evening their Majesties and Royal Highnesses appeared in the Palace gardens, and were every where welcomed with the most lively joys Lord Bloomfield, the English Ambassador, has re turned from his tour in Norway.

We understand that his Majesty has thought fit to order, that in September. October, and November, the 'ending of troops to India shall be carried on with more activity than usual, partly because the opportunities of et nveyame ere more favourable, and also because the arrival of troops in Java early in the spring may be a very seasonable reinforcement to our military force. The Batavia Cogiraid of the Stb April, only now re ceived, informs us that the Sultan of Samanap was ea- petted at &mating, with 400 of his troops, that the troubles in Java were not wholly appeased, that Capt. lioelman and Major Hunter had gained some advan- tages over the insurgents, and that Major General Green had surrOunded the rebels under blank° Negoroi so that they must stibnite 6r effect their retreat.

In the lanolin market, there lave been some Sootuatlons in Mexicans, which left off on Saturday at 511 to S. and went down this morning to 501, owing to an account at Lloyd's that the Masan frigate was taming to England, instead of going to Vera Cruz, for dollars, to fay the Mexican Dividend.

Dutch Papers were received this morning, and their cis - Meats are not without interest, rfspetielly the accounts of a commercial nature. A treaty of amity has been concluded between Denmark and the United States.-- The following are extracts: PETEItBSUROH. Ames? le. We.have just received official accounts frofn Kiakhta of a nature to encourage our manufacturers of woollen cloths, and the dealeis in those articles. Of the immense quantity of Prussian clotli sent to Kiakhta from 1817 to 1823, these were remaining. after the last fair, only 14,000 arsheens. worth 73,573 rubles ; these cloths were partly damaged, and partly of colours not agreeable to the Chinese. Since the establishment of the transit trade. Prussia has `sent to, Kiakhta about 4,4'75,000 arsheens of cloth, worth twentrtwo millions and a half of rubles. During the first two years, 1817 and 1818, there were exchanged 640,000 arsheens of oar cloths, worth 1,345,000 rubles ; but in the seven following years si our exchanges amounted to only 315,000 arsheens, worth .597,000 ru bles. If we add to the above about 86,000 ar.heens of Polish cloths, sold to the Chinese during the last two years, and considering the total amount of cloths dis posed of in nine years at Kiakhta, an idea may be formed of the importance of this branch of commerce to our manufactures ; consequently, the greater have been the obstacles which foreign competition opposed to the sale of our cloths at Kiakhta, the more flattering are the hopes which the diminution of this competition ex• cites, and the more active our manufacturers and mer citants ought to be. that cloths of Russian manufacture may be rircha-ed by the Chinese in preference to others. In the first five months of this year three caravans left Petropawloosk, consisting in all of 101 camels, and 372 wargons laden with goods, to the amount of 150,312 rubles. Two of these caravans were for the Kirghis Steppe, the other for Krkand. ODFSSA, Jove ti. The wheat now accumulated here amounts to 800,000 chetwerts, and will be considerably increased by the daily arrivals, as well as by the crop of hard wheat (arnaoutka), cultivated in the environs of the town The quantity of wheat which has overstocked our mar ket must, for some time, have an unfavourable effect on the ptices. Soft wheat was last sold from 6to 10i; The Etiik of Saturday and all the French paper* the day before have reached us. There is some gence from Greece of rather a favourable nature: It states on the authority of fresh letters from :lyre, that the first division of the Turkish Fleet had lost several vessels, burned by the Greeks in the naval Eden before Samos, and that the repeated defeats of iliAlllg PACIIA i by the Itlainotes had been confirmed. It then remarks, that, "as Greece had become a desert, where the destruction of cities, villages, and palace. was ad more to be apprehended, having long since been effected; as her inhabitants grown familiar with the deepest misery, suffered at present with the more resignation, that death appeared to them less terrible than the idea of submitting to their implacable enemy, there was every reason to hope that the country will be saved, though for a time the chances of war have turned against her." The intelligence from. Spain cows down to the 22d ult. and announces a fresh act of tenderness and mercy on the part of FIIRDINAND'S Government. By a late decision, not less than sixty-five members of the late Cortes, compridirg AnOVILLAS and Don RIVARD() ALAVA have been added to the number excepted from the Amnesty published inMay 1824, and are condemned to death, and their property to be confiscated to the advantage of the R•ry al Treasury, They are to be sought after, their goods to be seized, and any individual who may have aided or sheltered them ate tb be ton ,sidered as their accomplices, and to be treated with all the severity of the laws. A mistaken notion prevails among some of oar ea. temporaries in regard to the time which will neceksaiily b required by the douse of . cbMIDONI for adjusting' the mattets of form attendant upon the meeting of a new Parliament, before it can proceed to the more important business of the Session. Some imagine that these forms will occupy at least a fortnight, while others seem to think that they will be sufficient to fill *p nearly the whole of the time from the meeting to the Christmas adjournment. So far, however.-from either-of these sopposittbns being correct, the whole of the time necessary for the forms alluded to will not be more than five or sit days; so that, tontrary td the pre dictions of our cotemporaries, Parliament will be en bled to proceed to the dispatch of businessin time amply sufficient for the accomplishment of all the necessary purposes before the Christmas recess. On the first day of meeting, the Commons will re-elect their &MAIM; on the second day, his Maiesrt's approbation of the choice of the House being signified, the gPIAKZR will immediately proceed to sweat in the Members; and this necessary ceremony will be continued on the two following days. On the fifth day the business of the Session will be regularly opened by his hlaserres Speech from the Throne; on the sisth, both Houses will present their Addresses to the Moo; and on the seventh Ministers will be completely at liberty to pro. teed to the most important measures of the Sessions; so that a full month will be left clear for the passing of the. Bill or Bills, which it may be deemed necessary to have passed before the adjournment of the holidays. In a part of Saturday's — impression, we noticed that a Supplementary Gazette, containing the ofEeial dis patches, received at the India House float the Governor -IGeneral at Bengal, had appeared. They bear date the 7th of April, and contain the Treaty entered into with the King of MIA: they tie given in another column. The King of Avw cedes to the British Government five of his frontier Provinces, and consents to pay towards the etpences of the contest a crore of rupees. We are to admit of a Burmese resident at the seat of our Govern meat, who is to retain with him a native guard of fifty men. The commercial part of the Treaty is founded in strict reciprocity. miammsommi=wic r .* t -....--.........

Captain Srtxcatt, on her foyage to Alexandria, received orders so look into Grabussa and Sfakia, in Candia, to search for two pirates, who had pillaged an English merchantman. In her passage the frigate took possession of a Greek galley, the Captain of which in formed her of seven or eight mystics which bad taken shelter at Caliii-iimio. The Captain made sail for that port, and there found the pirates. The fiigate imme diately brought her broadside to bear on them, and in half an hoot silenced three of them. Captain SIMNCIR afterwards sent his boats to take possession of the rest, with. their crews. These to the number of 2.50 landed, and taking up an advantageous position, opened a fire upon the English, of whom they killed or wounded about 100. The Commander determined to set sail, iafter having picked up the whole of the mystics—but, at the moment when two of his sailors went upon the yards tO lease the sails, two balls hurled the unhappy men into the sea.

BARTHOLOMEW FAIR. We could not help exclaiming on Saturday, on taking a view of the preparations for this ancient civic carniot, " the age of jollity is gone, that of saints, economists, and paupers hes succeeded, and the glory of Barden, y is extinguished for ever I" Every effort has been made to abridge it ; the price of the ground for stands has been raised so enormously, as to take away the profits and the inducements of speculators. There was none of the display in the avenues'to Smithfield, which of old save intimation of what was going on there. The fair itself cuts a most sorry appearance. There is not half the usual number of shows, and those wl.ich remain wear a melancholy aspect. The countenances of ti.e owners seem impressed with the prospect that they will lois by it ; and it may be conceived how :shot tire, under such circumstances, are all the efforts to he comical.-- There is not a single show of any note in tke square, which, a year or two since, was surrounded with them. Wonibwell, with Wallace and Nero. and some Royal tigers; and Richardson, with his Corps Dramatique • his clowns, the salt. box, and his harlequins, are the only Fermin, who have attained anything to re mind ns of its ancient splendour. Atkins with his lions and noble band of beef eaters, is heard there no more.—Gyngell, that prince of conjurers, who used to play "0, Nannie," on the:musical glasses has disap peared. The breed of monstrosities seems to Lave di minished ; there are only two Albinuses and a tali man and woman. There are still oysters for the luxurious, and we heard a fellow in the pig pens crying out lustily " Here's hot sauingers to feed your hangells with." The Lord Mayor and Sheriffs entered in grand pro. cession, at twelve o'clock, and proclaimed it with as few of the ancient observances as possible. The hucksters and licensed victuallers ware enjoined at their peril, to supply drink and food that was " good and fine for man his bodye." The shout at the opening, instead of being a din, heard thrice the distance of Pye•coiner, was a faint and dying sound, scarcely heard on the other side of the fair. The dancing booths have also b,cn hunted out. The rich man's painted window Hide the concerts of the quality ; The poor man can but spare A crack'd fiddle in the air, Which offends an sound morality. The rich man is invisible In the crowd of his gay society, But the pow man's delight Is a toriiatbe sight, And a stench in the nose of piety. THE LATE STORM. 1 .............. OXFORD, Serrewsza 1. The storm at Henley, yesterday se'nnight, was awfully grand. One immense flash of lightning was succeeded by the fall of a large globe of fire, which exploded like a cannon, and scattered about .in different directions. The electric fluid struck the chimney of a cottage near the bridge, and knocking off a small portion of the chimney, passed down the back of the house, injuring the wall in different places, and tearing down part of a vine, which was nailed against it. Two pet sons standing near were struck down, but received no injury. Wednesday last there was a most violent thunder Storm at Burford, in this county—so severe a one is not within the memory of the oldest inhabitant : the streets Were corispletely deluged, and the rain came down the [ hill, on which the town is situated, knee deep across the road, tearin g . up the Pavement and every thing in its way. The lightning was very severe, and two ricks of corn, and a barn fu ll of corn also ; belonging to Mr. Lee, of Little Faringdon, abdut five miles from Bur ford, were burnt down: It is expected that much mote damage has been donee Very little rain fell at Witney. The above st rm was.also extremely severe at Chip. Es . ~. ton and the neighbourhood, and its effects were visible in his city, for a sort of whirlwind fOrced up the dust, w was carried in dense clouds throtigh may of the stryits. We have heard of no serious mischief aving.lten produced by this storm. ..... BURT, Sirrzusto 1. The lightning on Friday evening was awfully vivid here, flash succeeding flash on every side of the horizon, for nearly two hours, with less intermission than we ever remember. A mill at Stowmarketohe property of Mr. W. L. Fison, was shattered in an extraordinary manner, the csp, with the sails, cast iron shaft, gte. weighing upwards of five tons, falling into the adjoining field, and the iron rods and splinters flying a considerable distance. At Combs, several large popular trees were bloWn up by the roots on the meadows in the occupa• tion of Mr. Pennington, and .in a grove by the side of Eladley Walk, a beautiful timber oak, of about two loads, was struck by the lightning, the top and branches thrown to the ground, and several rooks, which were roosting on it, killed; the body was severed to the bot tom, the bark torn o ff , and shivers and threads from the body of the tree scattered around it from the part where the cleft we* wide, and whence the branches were torn, a chocolate coloured bind was externally evident to the ground, but, with this exception; no discoloura don was perceptible. The Doke of ST. A=1117; a visit at the seat of Mr J. D. Km, at Halton, and secompaides Mm hi Isis shooting excursions. Mrs. Coitrxv is also a guest of the worthy Baronet. Mr. Sparrow, of Brixton, died on Thtirstig, in con• sequence of a slight puncture on the thumb, which he received by the instrument whilst opening the body of a poor girl who expired at Lambeth a few days since. A fatal affray. arising out of some trtflant feeling of jealousy, took place in the neighbourhood of Pool, Mqi it gouserrshire, Saturday se'nnight. Several revers were employed in a field near that town ; two of whom were observed, by the other reapers, to use boasting and ex asperating language to each other. One man said to the other, " If thee thinkst thee beest a Ismer man th.to me, come on ;" and when the man tutned his head to.; wards them, he saw Janes with the point of his scythe fixed in the heal of G miner, and the latter falling to the ground. The man instantly ran to the spot, aid held the body while the scythe was pulled out of t'ie unfortunate man's head. He expired instantly. A . Coroner's Jury sat upon the body, and a verdict " Manslaughter" being rewire, against Jones, he committed to Montgomery Gaol.
