One of them, the Constitiaionnd, quotes an article from Naples, on the authority of the Gazette of Augsburg, which states, that the English Govern ment has given permission to the KING of the two SICILIES to recruit for troops in Ireland ; and that his MAJzsry intends to raise six foreign Regiments, of twelve hundred men each, to preserve tranquillity in his dominions after the departure of the Austrians.— The account adds, that the negociation with Switzer-, land not hav►ng had the desired result, his MAJESTY , was obliged to turn to Ireland. Were there any truth in this statement, we suspect the KING of NAPLES would find that he must not place too great reliance on hired mercenaries, when the service he engages them in is that of keeping down the spirit of inde pendence among his subjects. The foreign intelligence in these Papers is of a decidedly warlike complexion. The following are extracts: ODESSA, MARCH 26. We have news from Constantinople of the 22d inst. The Austrian and Engli,ll Envoys made great efforts to continue their negotiations, but the Reis Effendi refused all conference with them. It is certain that the Porte was decided on war when the people were invited to assist in the Divan.— What other decision could be expected from the Ja nissaries but the cry of war? they are only anxious for the pillage of Pera. The Mufti had proposed, in the Great Council, to spare the lives of the poor ra jas (Christians), because they are destined by PROW.. VENCE to do the drudgery of the Mussulmans. SEMLIN (lIUNGARY), APRIL 4. Servia is threatened with a crisis. The Pacha of Belgrade has demanded of the Authorities that the inhabitants should be disarmed ; but they have obsti nately refused. The Turks are making preparations for marching on Nissa. Chourschid Pacha was still at Janina on the 18th of March ; and the Suliots were giving him such em ployment as would delay his march in the Morea. FRANKFORT, APRIL is. We have this moment received the news that the Porte has placed under embargo all Tut kish vessels in the Channel, and in the ports of the Black Sea.— The object of this measure is to secure a sufficient number of sailors to man the Ottoman fleet destined for the Black Sea. Accounts from Bucharest, of the 30th of March, say, that numerous Turkish troops daily pass the Danube at Silistria. Orders have been given to the innkeepers, and to the agents of fugitive Boyards, to dear their houses to receive the troops that are ex pected. The distress that reigns in the principalities exceeds all description. The Boyars who had still remained here, often arrive on our frontiers disguised as peasants, and in the most wretched condition. They say, that they daily expect at Jassy to hear of the commencement of hostilities between the Russians and the Turks, and that the latter shew the greatest enthusiasm. AUGSBURG, APRIL 15. Count Golowkin and M. de Tatischeff, it is af firmed, have completed the negotiations with which they were charged. It seems, that the Treaty of 1788 is renewed, by which Austria and Bassi.' engaged to act in concert against the Porte. This Treaty fixed also the number of auxiliary troops which the first of these Powers was to bring into the field. In Turkey all is in motion ; Tartars, with dis patches, depart successively from Constantinople, to repair to the different Pachalicks of the Empire. The Pacha of Belgrade, in particular, has received im portant orders relative to the arrival of numerous corps in Servia, where a considerable army is to be formed as a check on tlke cordon of Austrian troops posted towards the extreme frontier of the Bannat of Temeswar. The Ottomans are likewise reinforcing them elves in Bosnia and Turkish Croatia, a report ig been spread that the Austrian army (which to come from Italy through the Venetian terri was going to take up a positipn in Illyria, and that the head-quarters of this army would be at. Ga r the Capital of Austrian Croatia. AIX-LA-CHAPELLR, APRIL 16. =TRACT FROM A PRIVATS COMMUNICATION. Several mercantile letters have given rise to a red port, which has been in circulation in some parts of the south of Germany, that an English fleet would be immediately sent to cruise in the Baltic. It was even said that this news had excited some sensation at Rigd, where there is a Russian squadron. It is a ffiimed, that the last dispatches which the Cabinet of Berlin has received from the Court of Vienna, relate to a Convention agreed upon between Prince Metternich and M. de Tatischeff, to regulate the future fate of the Greek nation, and determine its political existence. A similar communication is said to have been made to the Court of the Tuilleries, and to the English Government. We shall soon know what to think of the part which Prussia will take in approaching events. Everything leads to the presumption that it cannot remain neuter in the present state of political affairs. This important question will be decided as soon as it is officially known that Austria has finally made an alliance with Russia. A Jamaica Mail arrived this morning, by which we have received Jamaica Papers to the 12th March. The following are extracts : TOBAGO, JANUARY it. The melancholy task devolves upon us this day of recording a most unfortunate catastrophe, we mean the destruction of a great portion of the town of Scarborough, by a fire which broke out in the upper story of the house formerly occupied by Mr. Sawyer. So rapid was the conflagration that, in a short space of time, a large building, with the adjoining one, belonging to Samuel Hall, Esq. were totally con sumed, with several other buildings. His Excellency, the Governor, after providing for the safety of his family at Government House, rode into the town. and, by prompt and energetic orders, soon placed the town in safety. FROM THE JAMAICA COURANT OF THE 9TII MARCH• Sierra Leone Gazette: to the 15th December ar rived on Thursday, which contain a letter dated Free town, 24th November, on board the Sapper, stating, " that &ling their last cruize they fell in with nine slave ships, seven of which were boarded, and found to be trench, completely fitted for the slave trade. Most of the French vessels are fitted out at Nantes. One of the schooners was a mere boat, although she had on board 153 slaves, all packed together: these poor creatures were in a pitiable state. A large French brig from Nantes is now lying at the mouth of the Sheba. Wehave at length the gratification to announce the arrival of our excellent Governor, Gen. M'Carthy, in the Ceres: the Civil and Military Authorities, with the inhobitants, received his Excellency on the wharf, and accompanied him to the Government-house." Advices have been received from Vienna, by Ex press, of the 13th of this month, which is three days later than the advices received by the Mail, some what favourable to peace. The metallic Stock had im proved, it is said, three-quarters per Cent. and all Foreign Securities had improved in proportion. Let ters from Holland state the Foreign Securities to be on the rise. We regret to learn from the Brazils that there are numerous importations of. slaves. We understand that, in one week previous to our last dates from Per nambuco, 3,000 slaves arrived there, of whom one ship, of about 300 tons, brought 1,000! The Spanish Minister at Washington has protested officially against the proposed recognition of the In dependence of the South American Republic. There were two elections on Monday at the So ciety of Arts and Sciences. The first was for a Vice President of the Society, in the room of the late Sir NATHANIEL CONANT: Mr. HOPE was elected. The second was the annual election for the Presidency of the Department of Polite Arts: Mr. WARREN, the engraver, was returned. Some of our cotemporaries in the West have got up a story of an " Opposition leader" in Edinburgh, and a " Bard who tells the tales of ether times," being bound over to keep the peace. There is not the least foundation for the statement. The town of Haddington has been thrown into con siderable confusion, in consequence of an exten sive robbery committed on the East Lothian Bank.— William Borthwick, the Cashier, who had been long in the employ, and in whom the most implicit confi dence had been placed by the firm, was not at his post on Tuesday morning, the 9th inst. At first no suspicion was entertained ; but on inquiry, it was found he had left his residence. An investigation into the cause of his absence took place, when it was soon discovered that he had absconded with bills and Bank-notes to a very great amount. In the western part of the county of Monmouth, we regret to state that the refractory workmen have been increased in number by some thousands from the Rock, Tredegar, Sirhowey, and Pont-y-pool works. The Scotch Greys have remained at Aberga venny ; and the knowledge that the County Cavalry are on the alert, and that application has been made for some infantry, deters from actual violence; but this state of things, it is feared, cannot last. In the day-time, the men spread themselves through the county, and solicit charity, with w hi c h t h ey support their families ; in the evening the) blacken their faces, assemble on the bills, and use the most horrible threats to deter those who think half a loaf better than no bread, from working under the regular prices.

EXTRACEDINAET METZOR.—(From an American Paper, of March 211.)—0n Saturday evening last _about five minutes past ten o'clock, a meteor, of a most extraordinary size and bril liancy passed over this city (Richmond), in a direction from the North East to South West. It is represented by persons who saw it, as nearly the size of a barrel; that sparks were emitted from it in every direction; and that it left behind it a trail of light of great length; and it was thought by some that they heard a hissing noise as it passed over them. The passengersin the Western stage saw it as they were passing near Johnstown. Axoxisza AGCOUNT.-00 Saturday evening last, whilst sitting In our dwelling, which fronts the North, a silver light, if pos• sible more bright than the Sun, and singularly beautiful, corn plettly filled the room; in a moment the meteor exploded, re sembling the fire of a musket, leaving behind it a wide stream of fire, which was visible more than ten minutes. Surautaa Cass or Issotvzsev.—ln the Insolvent I)ebtors' Court, yesterday, William Ritchie, a private in the Guards, was heard on his petition.
