In an extract below from the Conslitsitionnel, it will be seen, that reports were current in Paris, of revolutionary movements becoming apparent in Prussia; but we have been this morning favoured with a letter from Pillan, which positively contradicts such reports. It is mach in favour of the King of PRUSSIA, and in confirmation of the proba bility of his remaining undisturbed, at the present revo lutionary crisis, that he has been governing, we believe, with a liberal mild spirit ; and endeavouring, with the advice of a wise Minister, to anticipate revolution, by making changes in the institutions of his kingdom, fa vourable to the future improvement of his people, and suited to their present state of intelligence. We refer, indeed, to impressions of his Government, contracted now several years ago ; and are ignorant whether his late acts have been confirmatory of the fair promise, which intelligence from his Court then afforded. The only sure way to check the progress of revolution in Europe, is to set to work honestly, and reform institutions. In con flagrations in towns, it is sometimes found necessary to pull down old combustible fabrics, u the only way to stop the progress of the flame ; and, perhaps, some of the Kings and Emperors of Europe might take a salutary hint from the practice. The letter to which we allude is the following, dated the Bth December : PILAU :—As, in the present revolutionary era end approximation of actual revolution to the kingdom, at a port of which I have so long resided, may have given rise to rumours, which, if credited, might be injurious to our commercial interests, I can assure you, in the most positive manner, that not the slightest symptoms of dis affection have yet presented themselves in my neighbourhood, and yes know we are not many hours journey from Konigsburg. There have been very lately reports brought by traders from Riga, of riotous transactions in the Russian capital ; and no doubt the revolution in Russian Poland, must render the other old provinces of that ancient kingdom liable to infection; but every precaution bas been taken to insure tranquillity. A Russian army of considerable strength.—say 70 to 80,000 men —divides the disturbed Polish Province from those yet tranquil; but of course the present position of that force, may be changed, as the Government at Petersburgh may see expedient. For the present, however, they preserve the boundary of our kingdom safe from cam. motion. AU disposable troops, from Konigsburg, have been sort to the frontiers. There is therefore no alarm In this quarter of even a rupture with the Pules ; for it is generally believed the King of Prussia Is bent on preserving the tranquillity of his own State. We ►ear that the Polish Authorities have, to insure no interruption in com mercial affairs, opened the entrance of the line of frontier custom-houses. Our Readers will peruse with much interest, the trials of the unfortunate ignorant agriculturists, who have adopted lately so dreadful a mode, to attract attention to their dis tresses. The trials, we need not add, display all die dignified combination of justice and mercy, which is so honourable to our Courts. The culprits aro evidently objects of commiseration, even to those who are sitting in serious judgment on their acts; and we have no doubt that, as far as sound policy will admit, lenity will be, even at the eleventh hour, shown in the sentences to which the law way subject them. We hope so ; for death will do evil. We have heard, what is very creditable to the present Go vernment, that in anticipation, that many might be sentenced to transportation, a vessel has been prepared to take them exclusively on board, and immediately sail with them, without running the hazard of subjecting them, to the •ever-failing contamination which proceeds from interme- diate residence in jails, or at the Hulks ; or in community with others, destined to the same voyage. lo the House of Lords last night, two subjects were dis cussed, of importance; the 6rat was a demand made by the LARD CH•NCILLOR, for a return of the number of lunatics, under the care of the Loan CHANCILLOR, with the dates of the longest and shortest time of confinement, the sums allowed for their maintenance. and the actual amount of their estates. Lord ELDON replied to the LORD CIIRIKKLIOR, elating that it would be necessary to have the utmost caution in treating the subject, and it behoved the Noble Lord upon the Wooleack to outsider the point, whether it would net be better - to echo pitysicatas, who confined themselves to the treat meat of one subject, as the most likely persons to ! be the best judges of the disease in question. To which the learned Cn•iicaLton rejoined, that there was a tendency to suppose, whether right or wrong, that all medi cal men who devoted themselves exclusively to cues of in sanity, and who kept asylums, had a prejudice in favour of insanity. What he meant was, that they were apt to ima gine, and see insanity, where other people saw none. The proper course to take would be, to constitute the commission of three persons, one to be of one sort, and two of the other, or vice verso. The returns, as a matter of course, were agreed to. In the House of Commons, the Liverpool Election was again brought under notice. In reply to certain charges of bribery and corruption, Mr. Ew A RT, 60 successful candi date, stated, that if there were one sentiment which could add to his consciousness of rectitude, it was the confidence he felt, that he came in for the borough of Liverpool, with the strongest support from the most respectable classes of society, and also with the enthusiastic acclamations of the people. Even this, however, was not to be compared with his own deep consciousness of tecti tude, to which extraneous circumstances could add little, and of which no circumstances whatever could deprive him. The other debates of the Honourable Members, we give at con siderable length, seeing that they cannot fail to be interest ing to the politician, as well as to the connected professional gentlemen—consisting chiefly, as they do, of the merits and demerits of places and pensions; common law, and Courts of Equity, which, it is well known, are two very differ ent things. With respect to the Judgeships in Ireland—about which so much has been spoken to little purpose—Mr. DAWSON made some inquiries, which were answered by Sir JAMES GRAHAM, and Colonel O'GRADY. These gentlemen were followed by Sir Joint New roar, and Sir ROBERT PREL ; the latter of whom expatiated on the reductions of places, sinecures, and pensions, which the late administration contemplated to carry into effect. After a desultory debate—or rather conversation—in which re form was mixed up with revolution, it appeared that at a quarter past twelve o'clock, there were not forty Mem bers present ; and an adjournment necessarily took place. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE-EXCLUSIVE. PARIS. Dgc. 18. It begins not to be credited, that any Austrian force has entered Piedmont—the Journals of Lyons being quite silent on the subject ; and the return of M. Barante is sufficiently explained on other grounds. The sittings of the Chamber of Deputies, of the 15th, 16th, and 17th, were almost entirely occupied, by the laws on the National Guards. Some of the Deputies ex pressed that, in their departments, the people were most enthusiastic in joining that body ; but one Deputy gave • very different account of his department. In the Chamber of Peers, some salutary and severe Laws have been passed, for enforcing the abolition of the disgrace ful slave trade. Reports are very current of revolutionary movements in Gsllicia, Prussian Poland, and even at Konigsmark.—We should not regret if they may prove true; for it is only union can make revolutions successful : and when once com menced, all must wish them success ; for if subdued, the result is dreadful to the present race, and injurious to the future. Another stab is given to the cause of des pods= ; and again a despot has given the blow. Our readers may have learned from our columns, that the pre sent insurrection in Poland had its origin in the tyranny of CONSTANTINE, who had ordered to be seized, for the inflic tion of the Knout, some Polish youths at the University, who had been guilty of showing regard to the memory of the brave Kosci vat°. Despots are incorrigible—they al ways commit the same faults ; and, thank a kind Providence, are always doomed, sooner or later, to receive pu nishment. In no revolution do we so sincerely sympathize, as in the present revolution in Poland. When Frenchmen recollect their criminal apathy, at the period of the atrocious partition, they feel a secret compunction which makes them long for an oppor tunity to make amends. The Poles were always, in times past, our faithful Allies, and even during the period of their bondage, they have never ceased to stretch forth their arms to us, Imploring oar pity and assistance—No Brave Poles I Yon shall not be disappointed. The time has come, and you shall not implore us in vain. Franc* will never abandon you—it is impossible. Happy is our Citizen King, who will have the glorious opportunity to requite you for our past shameful neutrality. May the Minister feel his strength—may he remember the saying of FREDERICK 2d.—" Were I King of France," said he, " not a cannon should be fired in Europe, without my per mission."—As events increase in magnificence—our spirit must increase with them.—Constitutionnel. CITY, ONS O'CLOCK. We have no arrivals this morning ; the French mail also remains due. Even should the French mail arrive, the Estafette will not bring any news of consequence, as it leaves on Sunday, on which day the ex-Ministers are not tried. The trial by special commission at Winchester is read with interest by the public. Consols, which left off yesterday 8111, for the Account, opened at 81s, but soon after the market gave way, when Consols receded to 811; at present they are 811. In the Foreign Market scarce a bargain doing ; prices much the same as yesterday. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The fluctuation in Consols this morning has been about; per cent. In the early part of the day they were done at 811, and went up to 81f, for the Account : at present they are 8111. It is reported on the Continent, that Prince Coburg, and a son of the King of the French, are to be Regents of Belgium. Nothing doing in the Foreign Market. The great Hebrew Synagogue, in Duke's-place, was, last night, broken open and robbed, by persons as yet un known. They took from the ark the manuscripts of the Laws of Moses, which were richly ornamented with massive silver, hooks and belle. With the silver they made off, but the manuscript', which were written on parchment, they tore and cut in several parts, scattering them about the floor. Ibe great less consists in the manuscripts which cannot be replaced.

The Representatives of the Great Powers held a conference on the affairs of Belgium yesterday afternoon at the Foreign Office, which was attended by Prince Lieven, the Russian Ambassador; Prince Talleyrand, the French Ambassador; Prince Esterhatry, the Austrian Ambassador ; Prince Bulow, the Prussian Minister ; Baron Wiaaenburg. and Viscount Palmerston. The conferences held by the Ambassadors and Viscount Palmerston, the preceding afternoon, lasted four hours. Viscount Goderich and Lord John Russell had interviews with Earl Grey yesterday. The Lord Chancellor visited Viscount Althorp yesterday. The Officers of the Royal Horse Guards gave a grand dinner last evening, at their barracks, in the Regent's Park, to their former Commander, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cumberland. As one of the plans of economy, it is asserted that the tenders now attached to guard-ships will be discontinued.— Dsvonport Telegraph.

Saturday morning, between ten and eleven o'clock, the town and neighbourhood of Woolwich were thrown into a state of considerable alarm by the report of the Royal Arse nal being on fire. Messengers were immediately despatched to the Royal Artillery and Marine Barrack, and also to the Royal Dock-yard for assistance. and a number of men were promptly despatched to the Arsenal. Several boats, man ned from the men of war, under the orders of Commodore Warren, C.B. were also sent. Fortunately, however, the services of the gallant tars were not required. as the fire was nearly extinguished before their arrival. On making in quiry, we understand that the fire was quite accidental, and that it originated in a shed where several workmen were mak ing rockets. RADICAL RZYOII3I ASSOCIATIOW..-. This society, which, for the last six months, has held constant weekly meetings, on the evenings of Monday, at the Rotunda, Blackfriars bridge, has discontinued its hebdomadal sittings. Monday se'nnight was the last of their meetings; the falling off in the attendance since Mr. HUM", HUNT left town is, perhaps. the cause of the discontinuance. Ma. CAILLILII.—Lot ab this gentleman delivered a lecture, at the Rotunda, to about 100 persons, on his runt prosecution ; or rather, perhaps, defended himself from the charges brought against him, in the indictment found at the Old Bailey. He complained that he had been obliged to pay 11. 16s. for a copy of that document in the Clerk of Ar raign's Office. He entered largely into what be termed his defence against the charges, which he said, had been unfairly laid in the indictment ; contending that the context of the passages indicted gave them a very different meaning from the allegations of wickedness, falsehood, and malice. The allegation of their being seditious, he did not deny, but he would maintain, that sedition was nothing more than opposition to the powers that be, whetheerat or bad. His object is thus addressing them in his de he declared to be, in order that be might be the better pre pared for his defence against the day of his trial. He hoped the prosecution a mhim was not at the instance of the Go.

FKANCS. (FROM THE MISSAOIII DEC. 19.) PAM, Dzc. 18. It is said that as soon as the proceedings in the trial of the ex-Ministers are completed, they will be taken back to Via cennes, where a clerk will read to them the sentence of the Court of Peers, it not being the custom of that high tribunal to deliver its judgment in the presence of the accused . The individual who, under the name of Gauthier, surnamed Cambord, has been arrested in the department of the Maine and Loire as a chief of incendiaries,and who has been brought to Paris at the instance of the Prefect of Police to be ex amined, has been brought to make confessions which seem to leave no doubt respecting his origin, which he had previously dissembled with great care. The result is, this man was for merly a galley slave, a native of the department of Landes. whose real name is Ducos. These particulars have been transmitted to the Tribunal, which will soon have to deter mine the fate of Duette. The " Tribune of the Departments" states, yesterday and to-day, that the Spanish. Portuguese, and Italian Re fugees who reside in Paris, have received orders to leave it in 24 hours, and that the Chiefs of these Refugees will not obey the order which they have received. There are several inaccuracies in these assertions, which it is important to notice :- 1. The dearness of provisions at Paris, and considerations regarding public order, have caused the order in question be given, not, however, limiting the time to 24 hours, but allowing a reasonable delay, and with all the considerations that are due to misfortune. 2. The Administration gives pecuniary aid not only to the officers and soldiers, but also to the women and children. 3. This aid is given them in advance, and by day's jour ney. to their destination. 4. The Spaniards have five departments for their re.i. dance, mostly chosen by themselves—Puy de Dome, La Correa*, La Cher, Upper Vienne, and La Dordogne. The Portuguese go iato the departments of the Mayeuns, and of Ile and Villain, where a number of their countrymen already reside. The Italians have themselves pointed out, through their agent, the department of the Saone and the Loire. 5. Several of the Chiefs have already asked permission to reside at Paris, stating their motives. This permission has been granted them without diffi culty. 6. Strict orders have been given in the above depart ments that these refugees shall be mutably lodged. and treated with all due attention. The Commissioners named by the persons interested is the Haytian Loan, hasten to inform them, that conform ably to their instructions, they have waited on the En voy of the Government of Hayti, and on the President l of the Council of Ministers, and Dave obtained the most satisfactory explanations, and have received the assurance I that a Treaty is on the point of being concluded which will permit that Republic to fulfil its engagements. DUTCH PAPERS RECEIVED LAST NIGHT. WARSAW, DEC. 9. The Journals of to-day contain a long Proclamation of General Cblopicki to the Polish Nation, in which he repeats the assurance that be has accepted the dignity conferred upon him for a short time only, as the Council of Adminis tration bad judged it necessary to have a single person at the bead of the Provisional Government, and that there may be more order and harmony in its measures. By an Ordinance of the Provisional Government, the Russian prisoners are recommended to the public care. Those who wish to remain in the country are to apply to the Municipal Council. The women and servants have full liberty to depart, and all men and women who remain at Warsaw are placed under the protection of the laws with respect to their persons and property. As the late trou bles have caused an interruption of commercial trans actions, the Provisional Government, in concert with ,the Bank, has resolved that all bills of exchange which were due on the 29th of Nov. or shall become due before the 15th of Dec. though they have not been paid at the right time, or not refused and legally protested, shall retain their full value till the revocation of the present Degree. The Bank declares, that as its property amounts to thirty millions of florins, and its notes in circulation to only sixteen millions, it is entitled by Art. 23 of the law on the Bank of 29th January, 1828, to issue notes to the farther amount of fourteen millions, and it will therefore imme diately proceed to put notes of filly florins into circulation. The Warsaw Gazette says, that the Weywodeships of Cracow, Kalisch, Lublin, Ploek, and Polachia have sent addresses declaring their adherence to the Provisional Go vernment. The Committee of the Safety Guard, in concert with the town Magistrates and the Commanders of the National Guard at Plonk, has sent an oddness to the Dictator, expressing the general indignation felt against the dema gogical clubs, with the assurance that the Weywodeship of Plonk is resolved to support the Dictator to the utmost to his enterprises, and in concert with him to put down the in triples of demagogues. FRAU IL TORT, DEC. 12.-. The German Confederation continues to adopt measures of precaution. The Military Governors of the fortresses have orders to put them in a good state of defence. The Prince of Hesse Homlarg, Governor of Luxemburg, is come for positive instructions, and will soon return tolisst. It is reported that the Confederation has auth orised the Prussian Government un der certain circumstances, to occupy the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg with 40,000 men, in the name of the German Confederation. Duke Charles of Brunswick, seeing his plans Masted by the declaration of Prussia that no attempt to excite troubles in Brunswick by the use of arms will be tolerated, will return by way of Paris to London, probably to abdicate his power on the most advantageous terms.
