it is more incumbent upon the legislature of every Chri stian country to enforce, than the due observanc.col. Sunday. It iskmost desirable, therefore, that Sunday should be, to the slave population in all the colonies, a day oi ent;re relaxation from compulsory laboui, and . P.Pen to be devoted to religious duties and to moral in .' stroction. I am aware, however, that whilst provision is made ,- for securing to the slave sufficient time and opportunity - for religious instruction, and every latitude is allowed with respect to the mode of his instruction which the spirit of toleration demands, it is very fit, notwithstand stanJing, that certain local regulations should be esta• blished, to guard against those abuses and that misap. plication, to which the best institutions are liable; and to obviate those disorders which might be. occasioned, OT the apprehension of which might at least be °tea. sionally entertained, if an unrestricted liberty were per • mined, to assemble considerable bodies of the slave population, at unseasonable hours, or without the pre. vions consent of their owners. The next object which I am desirous strongly to re commend to the favourable consideration of the Colo. nial Legislatures, is the admission of the evidence of . slaves. This may appear to some of the Colonies to be still too great a step to be at once taken, but the concession already made upon this point by others ot the Colonial Legislatures, induces me to hope that the principle is gradually gaining ground in the West Indies, and that • it will ere long be generally felt that the elevating a slave to the rank of a person who.e evidence is ad• alined, under the same restrictions only under which that of free men is received, and by teaching him and his fellow subjects that the avenues ot justice are not closed against his testimony in any case whatsoever, an important improvement will be effected, as well in the character of the slaves themselves, as in the general ' feeling and conduct of the population at large. The only other point which I shall advert to is the situation of that portion of society in the colonies which comes under the general denomination of people of colour. ' It ;wears to me that it would be wise to act with much liberality towards this class of individuals; and I am to direct, therefore, that your Excellency will strongly secommend their interests to the favourable clissideration of the local Legislatures.

By tiat law nu Roman citizen could suffer death. But when rigorous punishments and an ineffect;ve police succeeded the admini,tration of this mricilul t',e glor y of the empire was cluuded, and fina;ly .itiscuted. Now, when we reflect that till lately there were above one hundred and sixty different off•nces (and indeed their number is not yet much di mini.hed), which suhject•d the parties who were found guilty so death without bei.efit of clergy, we cannot wonder that clime was so prevalent. For it is a maxim which experience has taught every Englishman, th it crime increases in the ratio of the severity of the pu ni hmenj *hi& the law affixes to it, but which is not', applied to the guilty. The compassioo of mankind in every rank of society operates towards a melioration of the rigour of too oppressive laws. Judge BLacasTotaz says, is The injored, through compassion, will rfren forbear to prosecute—Juries, throu.th compassi-n, sometime, forget their oaths, and either acquit the guiity .or mi.igate the nature of the offence—and Judges, through compassion, will respite one half the 'convicts. and recommend them to Royal me cy." But sere the laws so distributive of a nieet punish ment f r each classification of crime or offence, the compassion of the injured, of the Jury or the Judge, would not he called into play. For Vice is no desire in any that critninals should escape, but only that they should not be punish-4 beyond then guilt. Thetefote, it an equ ,I.xcion of punishment be approptiateJ to transgression, the law will be administered according to its intention. Individuals will not exercise, as they have done, the office of the legislators of an hout, - vetoed by caprice, or swayed by compassio . Mi. Net, with laudable exertion, has laboured to remove this great stigma from our laws ; but he has yet much to perform. But even the little—the golden tittle he has performed, will be unavailable of direct benefit to'the public, unless a corresponding improve ment take place in the Police of the melt opolis. It is a mistake to suppose that all the Criminal Code must, or ought to be amended, before an improvement in the Police is attempted. To circulate the advantages of the law, as now amended—to preserve the intention of its improvement—and to Make what has been done a ful crum, to support the operation of future amendments, the P. lice .mast keep pace with the alteration ib it. But these improvements are conteinplated, we un derstand, by Mi. Pam.. Indeed, we know from she highest authority that they ate on their way to a speedy debut before the public. That they will secure to Ibis Right Honourable Gentleman thativraise which he has stated is the honoured metsztilll4 he desires to Teem behind him; there is little doubt. He + i f , colder an advai.tage unspri.bable on Abe- • Englii-tt nadirs, and• hew ill enjoy the aserhisting 1111011t1U1C131 that he could wish. His nape will go shown to posterity hallowed in theaecollection of those who love •irtue. By his refoTmation ofihe lat Ors of his coun►ry, and by a system that will f.il not to have them executed, he will pro mote the morality ana diminish the guilt of his fellow man. What nobler field of glory can be contemplated fora philanthropist or a steesman ? We received Paris Papers last night to the 20th inst. also German Papers to a late date, extracts from which will be found in our front page. The former contain no intelligence from the theatre of war; it is merely stated that the positions of the hostile armies remained the same as at the date of the former ad vices. By the latter we have intelligence from Constantinople to the lfith ult. It adds but little to the facts which we have already communicated from that city of the same date, and the speculations in which the writers indulge are of so uncertain a character, as on the wl•ole to call for no particular remark. The Augsburg Ciozeite contains a document, said to be signed by the three Allied Powers, guaranteeing the Morn and the Cs clades as constituting the future Stet: of Greece. Tnis paper, which appears to be clothed with all that is necessary to makeit official, has been transcribed into most of the Paris Journals of Sunday, but the Alessoger des Chant- Gres considers it as of uncertain authority. We received this morning Hamburgh Pipers to the 14th, anJ the.Algenteine Zcitung to the 15th instant These Pipers, like their pre. ecessors ot late, abound in romours and speculations on the negociations carrying on for tl.e pacification if Gie , ce, and of the immense preparations of Russia fir opening the ensuing campaign with eclat, but contain nothing in an offici:l shape to warrant any comment.—The following are extracts: ANCONA, Daccmsza 26. We are daily more and more convinced that an arrangement between the Cabinets of London and Park and the Porte is pre paring, and that the affairs of Greece will be shortly settled. It is affirmed that every facilty is afforded to the Porte, to enable it to come to a decisitm ; and that a way will be opened for Dego dation', and the return of M . Stratford Canning and Guile minot to Constantinople. Couriers hastening from London and Paris to Poros, are said to have conveyed most important instruc tions to the Ambassadors. The Admirals too, and the Lord High Commissioner at Corfu, are said to have received new orders, ac companied with the strictest injunctions to avoid every thing that might afford the Porte grounds for complaint. It is even affirmed, in letters front Corfu, that Sir Pulteney Malcolm has been blamed by the English Government, fir the indifference with which he tolerates the new piracies of the Greeks, as well as fur bis conduct on other occasions. General Maison has stopped the works which had been commenced f r the defence of the Peninsula, and seem to have left the completion of them to the Greek Government. The French soldiers who, on their arrival, were enthtuiastic in favour of the Greek cause, are reported to be much less so, and to long for orders to return home. It is even said that General Manion has expressed such a wish, in one of his dispatches; but this dues not seem to be suitable to the General's character. Fee quent remittances arrive for the Russian fleet in the Mediter- , ranean ; and the large amount of the sums, shows how great the expenses ale which Russia is put to by the war with the Porte. FRONT! ERS OF SERVIA, Dee. 21t. There is a great deal of ice on the Danube, by which navi gation is wholly interrupted. The coureyance of provision. to the Turkish fortresses is thereby rendereel impuisible, for the deep snow binders supply by land. Some embarrassment is fell at Ltd grade respecting the immediate execution of the orders received front Constantinople fur the supply of the troops and the formation' of magazines in those fortresses. The contractors, in particular, appear to have forgotten one stipulation in the cootraets, namely, an exemption front respoasibihiry, if they were hindered by bad weather from fulfilling their engagements: this imprudence n.ay coat them dear, for the Turk adheres strictly to the letter, and ad mits of 00 excuse. Since the last mail, and the an of a Couriet at the Lazaretto, we have no news from Consiat [[ itt °pie, nor have we anything worth notice from other parts. The report of an at ' tack made by the Turks on Dazardjik, which I mentioned in a former communication as needing confirniatioti, seem. to be wholly %l•...ic_ra is said to _Ave greatly unfounded.

'I be passage to and from Hamburg,' is still open. FROM THE VISTULA, Dec. 26. The commercial letters received from St. Prtersburgh, give no • hope whatever that the war with the Porte will be terminated during the winter by diplomatic negociatiunr. but speak only of the incredible activity which is employed to open the campaign with an army twice as numerous as before. Recruits are pouring in trim all parts of the immense Empire , 900 cannon have been sent mune the arsenal at Mioscow to the Danube, and the cavalry depots are all emptied, to supply without delay the loss 01 knees. One hundred and lily thou.and irregular Cossacks and other uuops are on their march to the Danube. The Emperor, it is said, will command the army in person, and go to join it in the month of March. General Dribitirch remains at the head of the staff, am Count Wittgenstein will command the van of the Emperor's army. Generals Roth, Geismar, and ltudiger, will have equate corps to act on the Sinks of the main army, and the Duke of .Wistemberg wiU command the reserve. Au unauthentieated report says, that the Polish army'', to be increased by 10,000 men, but in no case to be employed against the Turk.; it went., however, that a division 01 it is to be in garrison at St. Petersburgh during the war with the Turks. There are many reports about notes said to have been presented by the great Powers, and even of an ultimatum delivered by the English Ambassador Extraordinary. We can, however, affirm, on good authority, that all these reports are wholly unfounded. The moat pertcet•uuderstandtag prevails between the allied Cabinets, and will nut be interrupted. =CHAGOS ON LONDON. HADIUNCY. hat. 13,13 71.—Two months, 13 iii. Basun, JAM. 10.—Thrre months, 6 20.

CITY. TweLve o'CLocc• This is settling day in the Consul tnatkit, and little is doing as yet, except in waking up their Accounts. Consols opened this morning at S7C at which price they remain steady at present. The Foreign market is inactive, and prices are nominal. Commercial letters have been received, by Express last night, from Vienna, of the 12th of January, by which we learn that the Merallires, for the end of January, have rose to 961 9'71.

With the exception of one small Hebrew declared this morning, the Account is going off well. There is little or nothing doing except making up their accounts. Consols have been fluctuating during the morning between 871 land 871 for the Aecount ; but at present may be quoted 87i sellers, and 86 to 1 buyers, for February Account. A Calcutta John Bail of the 19th August has been received at the North and South American Coffee louse.

The seapoys bring supplied with cannon and musket:, regularly besieged the house of MIRZA Henna, and several persons were killed and wounded on both sides. At length an understanding took place, and the besiegers retired. TIIE ARMY. The Depot of the 75th Regiment of Foot marched on Monday morning from Chatham for Landguard Fort.

It is for the pur pose of a wine • cooler, and some idea may be !armed of its magni tude from the fact, that a man may stand upright in it, and that it will comprise 7,000 ounces of silver. This splendid service has occupied a great length of time, especially in the gilding of it, as this has been a work of more than ordinary difficulty (rum its im. mense size, and the prejudicial effects to the workmen Irons the quicksilver used in the gilding composition. The - following is an extract of a private letter by yesterday's Mail: " Dublin, Jan.l7. " A motley group of Roman Catholics, beaded by Mr. O'Cos- Nzt.e and two Priests, proceeded this day, at twelve o'clock, from Townsend street Chapel, the appointed place of rendezvous, with an address from the Papists of that parish, to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant. The deputation moved off in about half a dozen hackney coaches, along the quays, greeted by all the coal-heavers and lab women in the metropolis, to the Vice-Regal Lodge, in the Phenix Park, where they were admitted to the presence of his Excellency, and presented the address, to which he returned a witable answer. Theis were but one or two unnumbered carriages in the cortege. " The High Sheriff of Mayo has refused to call his County to address the Lord Lieutenant, in imitation of the Lord Mayor of this City, to which latter functionary the Corporation of Dublin unanimously voted their thanks and meed of approbation, in the Quarterly Assembly yesterday, for his refusal to convene the inha bitants for the purpose of addressing. In Kildare a similar refusal has been given, notwithstanding the Duke of Lsoirraa exerted all his lt.fluence to effect it. From these and other evidences you may estimate the upi.)ions of the Protestants of Ireland on the rectal of his • E.cellency.
