The proceedings in the House of Commons last night possessed little interest : some of the Bills in progress through the House were advanced one stage without opposition. The CHANCELLOR of the Ex ciingona, it appears, has not yet found a Contractor for the Loan to pay the Pension Annuities, but we understand that some negociations are going on be tw•een the Bank and the Treasury, by which Minis ters hope that the plan, with some alterations, may be carried into effect. • The CHANCiLLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER, however, stands pledged to remit two mil lions of taxes, a pledge which we trust he will redeem, though how or in what way the deficiency is to be supplied seems doubtful: but as the Right Hon. Ge ntleman has promised an explanation of his views on Friday next, we shall wait till then. It will be seen that Government have come to the determination to advance £lOO,OOO towards li quidating the claims of the sufferers by the late Ame rican war in Upper Canada. We understand that this is not intended to be the final settlement, but that nen• Commissioners are to be appointed with the least possible delay, to revise the claims already in vestigated, and that upon their report a final adjust ment will be made. The money is to be raised by the way of loan, payable in Canada, on the joint se em ity of the province and the mother country, each undertaking to pay half the interest. The business so arranged, we have been informed, was only com pleted yesterday morning. The Path Papers of Sunday have reached us. The following are extracts PARIS, MAY 19 Letters from Naples announce a change in the mea sures of Government, at the earnest request of Austria, whose Army of Occupation is in consequence to be diminished, and concentrated in Lombardy. A new Ministry is expected under M. de Medicis, who has the conEslence of the Neapolitan People and of Austria. VIENNA, MAY 8. - - . There is a general belief in peace, but not on the basis of the Russian ultimatum. New bases, drawn vp by the Christian Powers, are to be presented to the Porte. The question is, the creating 66 a new State" i in Moldavia and Wallachia, or only in the former. The Austrian Patriots much desire to see the noble ravigation of the Lower Danube in the hands of a civilized Power, which would raise the value of Hun garian corn, wool, and other export produce. But Austria would not wish to see it in the hand of a great Power, having the means of shutting the Danube at pleasure. The creation of an " intermediary State" would remove this difficulty. SMYRNA, APRIL 19. Last Thursday (the 11th), the Ottoman fleet, con sisting of thirty-five ships of war, appeared before S:io. The flotilla of the Samians had already taken flight. The Capitan Pacha, before effecting a de scent, sent to ask the Commandant of the fortress if the whole island was in a state of insurrection ? The znswer of the latter was, that the Greeks were as sembled in force in two batteries, firing upon the castle, and they would hear of nothing but its sur render. In effect, notwithstanding the appearance of the squadron, they continued their fire for upwards 01 four hours. After learning with certainty their perEeverance in revolt, the Capitan Pacha disem harke,: a corps of troops, which being immediately loiaed by more from the fortress, they stormed the htight of Tourloti, and carried it in a short time. The flight then commenced, then the massacre, and then the burning of the town, which continued for five days. Four villages, Thimiana, Livadia, Vron c!ado, and Vassilinico, were also in flames. Terror and desolation were everywhere visible. Upwards of fifty thousand persons sent to make their sub mission to the Capitan Pacha. Several thousand Greeks were sabred in a village, where they had adopted the determination of. defending themselves. It is stated that no Catholic perished; MOO persons took refuge at the French Consulate, and they were respected ; the Capitan Pacha has provided for their safety. Pardon will be granted to the Sciotes—they are to deliver up 1000 Sairlia,ll9, who were the authors " Foreign j'oarads have taken Imo* that to drcelare that the King had an intention of marrying the Prince,. Royal of Denmark, daughter of the King of Denmark. The same Jour nals also state that associations vatre on foot for the purpose of eallingtog the Kingdom of Hanover for the Danish Isles. These Zap' have hand their. way into the German Journals, have deceived the Public, and perhaps given birth to the disquietude, hits and there, amongst persons, who, from the positive tone of these tales, might for the moment forget that an exchange of this kind would be as ccintrary to the European State Cowel -1 dons as to the known opinions of the King. The recollectlOn of these circumstances will surely suffice to dissipate all disquietude amongst the Hanoverian. But, in order to remove all doubt, we tan state from sources of certainty, that these two statements are Without foundation." ODESSA, APRIL 26. Accading to letters of the 20th, from St: Petets burgh, M. Kabockshih, first Secretary of M. de Ta tischeff, had arrived there, and M. de Tatischeff him self was expected the Ist of May. It was thought the Emperor would wait his arrival, though all was pre pared for his departure. A vessel which left Con stantinople on the 20th of April, brings us the fol lowing news:—The Porte had not yet answered the Note of the English and Austrian Ministers. The re port was current, but we cannot pledge ourselves for it, that the Reis Effendi had a second time sent to M. de Lutzow the Note of the 28th of February, with spots of ink dropped by design upon it, to be again pre sented at Vienna. The Divan becomes more intract able, from an opinion that a war between Turkey and Russia would necessarily involve the other Powers in hostilities. ^_, Mitrdr. lirtatUtlEfq , feces New •:W to ft.

CONYNOHAM, Lord F. CONYNOHAM, Lord and Lady Commit, Duke of DORSET, Marquis of A NGLESEA, Earls GREY and GOWER, Mr. HEATHCOTE, and Monsieur D'ORsm. z --• Lady SMITH gave another party last night at her house in Piccadilly, which was numerously and ele gantly attended. Sir HUMPHRY DAVY entertained a large party yes terday, at his house in Lower Grosvenor-street. The latest accounts from St. Domingo, which are to the Bth April, state President Banta to have been at Cape Hayden on the 7th ultimo with a part of his army. The Hayden squadron was also there, consisting of a ship, a brig, and a schooner (the lat ter formerly the Malvina, of Baltimore), which was to sail on the Bth, for Port-au-Prince, with troops.— It appears, that about the period that the difficul ties occurred in the Spanish part of St. Domingo, the French settlers, with a view of escaping the troubles which threatened them, with as many of their effects (among which they included their slaves) as possible, sought refuge on board several vessels, including some in Samana Bay, composing part of a French squadron, which were at anchor in the different har bours ; to prevent the escape of which the Hayden Government laid an embargo on all the merchant vessels, which they continued until the 29th of March, and it was even continued on all vessels suspected of being really in the French interest, until the sth of April, before it was generally raised ; and the ter mination of it ultimately may be ascribed probably to the circumstance of the squadron before-mentioned having landed the slaves at Samana, and then sailed for some unknown destination. It was the general belief at the Cape, that the troubles of the island had blown over, and that quietness was about to be restored DISTRESSING EVINT.—On the 17th or 18th of last month, as Mr. CHARLES BURGH (aged 24), third son of THOMAS BURGH, Esq. of the County of Kildare, and Mr. WATKIN, a relation, with whom he travelled, were sailing in the Bay of Naples, a storm arose sud denly, by which their boat was unfortunately upset, and Mr. BURGH, after the most astonishing exertions on the part of his friend to save him, was lost, having struggled till midnight in the waves. The agonizing sensations of his family, who were on shore, may be conceived. Mr. BURGH, was educated at Dublin. Un iversity, where he was distinguished by the highest literary honours, and was studying for the English Bar. Mr. BURGH was nearly allied to the Earl of BLISINTON and to the Earl of CLANCARTY. KINO'S'f nearas.—The Opera of Otello was again performed last night with great applause, and was followed most successfully by the Ballet of Cendrillon. In the splendid circle were their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Gtoucerrza. Davey-Lanz Tunwritz.—Last night the Comedy of the Wonder was presented at this Theatre, for the benefit of Miss TIDWELL, who on the occasion made her final curtsey on retiring from the Stage, after 40 years service. Mr. BRAN performed the part of Don Felix on this occasion, which he sustained with a considerable degree of credit. COVENT-GARDRN.—King John was last night per formed at this Theatre for the benefit of Mr. YOUNG, and he has rarely presented himself to greater advan tage than in the personation of that unfortunate Monarch. Mr. C. KIMBLE'S Faukonbridge, Mr. MACREADY'S Hilbert, and Mrs. FAUCIT'S Lady Con stance were deserving of the highest commendation. The. House was crowded in every part.

Yesterday, on the intelligence being made isnOwn that the fear other prisoners were respited, they manihalad no uneasiness, and seemed pleased at the better fortune of thilefellovr-prisoners. George Adams shelved Marks of the 4eqpest contrition, and expressed great regret for having ill-treated the person who cap tured him. He took leave of his wife, and the parting was mot affecting. op2ic was most respectably connected, and his father is an tradesman.. This young man often bitterly lamented his having quitted Ms father's home and associated with *- leaved characters, from whose company, he obeervcd, *in the -room, only a momentary gratification was experienced, a lasting impression of crime and guilt. • The final parting of Bartholomew and his wife and five young children was dreadfully affecting: the poor woman hung on him with her little ones left unprovided for, and in loud shrieks, which were re-echoed by the children, lamented his fate, and called On Gan to have mercy on him—she cast an imploring look aronndher. The wretched man was speechless with horror and grief, and seemed for some minutes as if deprived of sense and utterance, sad permitted, :cared) , knowing what was doing, the removal of his wife and children; the poor women fell senseless in the cell, and the turnkey observed, that during his long experience he never witnessed a more heart-rending scene. Close also took leave of his wife ; but this wretched man, as his hour drew nigh, appeared to be losing his reason. This morning, at half-past seven o'clock, Messrs. Vs tastn and Gaaaarr, the Sheriffs, arrived at New-ate, and, after some preliminaries, proceeded with their Under. Sheriffs and attend ants to the Press-room, into which Naylor and Adams were im mediately brought, and had their irons knocked off, and were bound. Adams appeared remarkably firm, resigned, and col lected; Naylor was deeply dejected, but composed. Bartholomew was then brought in : this wretched man's be haviour excited much attention; ha walked in firmly, and bow ing to the Gentlemen present, acknowledged the justice of his sentence, and observed, he feared not to die, as he confidently expected mercy through the Bayous of mankind. Close was then brought in, and he looked wildly round and asked for his wife. This poor man seemed inclined to give as much trouble as possible, and was obliged to be held before be would permit his irons to be knocked off. The preparations for execution being complete a few mi nutes before eight o'clock, the procession moved through the pas sages. of the prison to the Debtors' lobby, the ltev. Ordinary reading that sublime part of the Epistle of St. Paul to the Corin thians, alluding to the forgiveness of sin. The Hollow and deep sounds of the tolling of the prison bell could not drown the ejacula tions by the wretched men of" Loan, have mercy on my soul!" Adams first ascended the scaffold with a firm step, attended by the Rev. Mr. COTTON : the other culprits were attended by the Rev. Mr. B•xaa and the Sheriffs' Chaplains, one of whom read the Burial service in the lobby. The wretched man, Close, manifested considerable unedsi ness, and walked and stared wildly around, exclaiming," Where's my wife ?—let me see my poor dear wife !" &c. He was with difficulty kept from disturbing the other prisoners. The executioner having performed his office on Adams, Nay lor ascended the platform with an unsteady step. He was fol lowed by Bartholomew, who conducted himself with the utmost firmness and intrepidity; he bowed to the multitude. Close was then carried up by two men, and he twice fell on his knees on the ladder. He was obliged to be supported on the scaffold. A few minutes past eight o'clock, the preparations being com plete, the drop fell, and they were launched ir.to eternity.—lt is but justice to add, that the prisoners all thanked Mr. Wont- Yea, the new Keeper, for his kindness and humanity.—Much un easiness was shewn in the crowd, in consequence of one or two persons, who knew the sufferers, loudly shrieking and crying. • s A person of respectable connections has been com mitted to Shrewsbury jai, on suspicion of being con cerned with the mother in the murder of an illegiti mate child, near Oswestry.

PETERSBURG% APRIL U. Our Government, as usual, publishes nothing. We wish for peace, but we are here persuaded that we must fight, in consequence of the arrogance of the Divan. Perhaps our Cabinet (Russia) has been too moderate, and uselessly sacrificed vast sums in peace, whilst war is inevitable. Papers from New York have been received this morn• ing to the 29th April. The following are extracts: FROM THZ COMMERCIAL ADVERTISER, APRIL 27TH. The United States schooner Revenge arrived yes terday from a cruize ; sailed from Havannah on the Bth April. Captain Hammersley states that, on the reception of the President's Message there, recom mending the recognition of the independents of South America, considerable•indignation was expressed by the Spaniards at Havannah, nor were they pleased with the success of our cruizers against the pirates. We have also received Havannah Papers to the 9th inst. An engagement took place on the 28th February between the Prudentia, a Spanish brig, and an In dependent; the action lasted two hours and a half; the Spaniards made two or three attempts to board, but the Independent avoided close quarters ; the loss of the former was five killed and fifteen wounded—. the other vessel is supposed to have suffered severely. LATEST FROM CAPE FRANCIS. By the schooner Good Return, we learn that the embargo laid by Boyer on the French vessels was removed on the sth inst. and the markets were com pletely glutted with all kinds of American produce. NORTH WEST COAST. The documents communicated to Congress on Weil nesday, relative to this subject, are published. In making the communication the Secretary of State ob serves, that the British Minister had intimated, that the proposed plan of occupying Columbia River might interfere with the rights of his Government ; the Se cretary declined to answer his inquiries, or discuss the claims of England, otherwise than in writing, but no written communication had been received. In answer to a Note from the Secretary of State, dated the 30th of March, relative to the Russian Decree, a letter was received from the Russian Minister, which con tains the following passage: " As to the rights claimed for the citizens of the United States of trading with the natives of the country of the North-west coast of America, without the limit! of the jurisdiction belong-1 mg to Russia, the Imperial Government will not certainly think of limiting it, and still less of attacking it there ; but I cannot dissemble, Sir, that this same trade, beyond the Slat degree, will meet with difficulties and inconveniences for which the American owners will only have to accuse their own impru dence, after the publicity which has been given to the measures taken by the Imperial Government for maintaining the rights of the Russian American Company." FROM THE NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER, APRIL 16. There was a report in circulation yesterday, we know not on what foundation, that the question be tween the United States and Great Britain, which was referred to the arbitration of the Emperor of Russia, respecting Slaves deported during the late war, has been decided by him is favour of this Go vernment. The subject is of great importance to several of the Southern States. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM WASHINOTO'S. " The Secretary of State has received intelligence, I have been informed; from our Minister at Russia, that the Emperor of Russia, our mediator, has deter mined that England shall pay for the Negroes taken by her Officers from our Citizens during the late war.--The British Minister has protested against the duty imposed on rolled iron being higher than that on hammered, as being a violation of the Convention."
