to the Senate of Hamburgh. It wit is the follow/. jig te rms :-- ap s e overthrow of the order of things in Spain , Portugal, so Naples, has necessarily caused the cares and the uneasiness .1 lie p owers who combated the Revolution, and convinced t b " e; of the necessity of putting a check to the new calamities .di wh ich Europe is thre atened. The principles which united it eat P des owers o ti of f the Continent to deliver the from the Pero world from , tie- military po C an., ought to act against the revolutionary power which has t w o , jot developed itself, .'flee Sovereigns assembled at Troppan, with this intention, ,enure to hope that they shall attain this obiect. They will for their guides in this great enterprise , the 'lreatits which 0-te,,red pea ce to Europe, and have united its nations together. 0 Without doubt the Powers have the right to take, in com mm, general measuies of precaution against those States whose dorms, engendered by rebellion, are openly opposed to legiti :pm governments, as examples have already demonstrated, es keielly when this spirit of rebellion is propagated in the neigh touring States by secret agents. •Is consequence, Monarchs assembled at Troppau have ~aanwed together the measures required by circumstances, and t oe communicated to the Coma of Lendon and Paris their Inteanon of attaining the end desired, either by mediation or by , With this view they have invited the King of the Two cakes to repair to Laybach, to appear there as a conciliator wee p his m isguided People and the States whose tranquillity i s e ndangered. By this state of things, and as they have re plied not to recognise any authority established by the seditious, i t i s only with the King they can confer. • As the system to be followed has no other foundation than Treaties already existing, they have rn doubt of the assent of the cmrts of Paris and London. The only object of this system is to csosolidate the alliance between the Sovereigns : it has no new to conquests, or to violations of the independence of other Diners. Voluntary ameliorations in the government will not be intruded. They desire only to maintain tranquillity, and pro tect Europe from the scourge of new Revolutions, and to pre vent them as far as possible." —lle would not stay to inquire how far the conclu sion of this Circular was its unison with the senti ments stated at its commencement : all he wished to know was, whether the determination here ex pressed by the Allied Powers was founded upon Trea ties. In this Circular it was inferred that the Allied Powers would have the consent of the Courts of Lon don and Paris to their proceedings. He wished to know whether this Paper had been communicated to the Government of this country, and whether the in ference of support from England had been autho nod by the Government? The Earl of LIVERPOOL said, he" had not the least difficulty in giving the Noble Lord every expla nation that was its hia power to make. With respect to the Declaration read by the Noble Earl, he had no difficulty in stating, that it was an incorrect copy of a paper which did exist. In the first place, he could gate, that there was no treaty in existence of the na ture alluded to by the Noble Earl, as noticed in this document. In the next place, he would assure the Home, that the Court of London was no party to the prxmling4 at Troppau or at Laybach. He would add, that in consequence of a communication from the Allied Sovereigns at Troppau, a paper was sent from this country, explaining fully and unequivo cally the line of policy which this country had de cided upon adopting. This paper he would lay be forethe House almost immediately. He had rather that it was not moved for that night; not that he had ay difficulty in producing it, but he was inclined to doubt the regularity of this mode of producing it. Earl GREY said, that the answer of the Noble Earl was pet fectly satisfactory. In compliance with the Noble Earl's intimation, he would not move for the paper that night ; but he hoped that it would be produced speedily—(Hear from Lord Liverpool). He confidently expected that this paper would give ample contradiction to the assumption of the Courts of St. Petershurgh, Vienna, and Berlin, that they had any right to expect the concurrence of England to any such purpose as they had represented in their Declaration to be entertained by them. The Earl of LIVERPOOL.—" The Noble Earl may rely upon a complete contradiction being con tained in this paper to any such inference. In the nett week, when we meet again, I shall settle with him when this paper shall be produced." The Duke of BEDFORD presented a Petition fen the County of Bedford, of similar import to those already presented. The Noble Duke said, that the Petition added a prayer for a change of Govern ment, meaning thereby the substitution of economy and retrenchment for waste and extravagance—a system of justice and conciliation to be carried into elect, and the abuses of Government to be fully re formed. The Meeting at which the Petition was adopted was of the most respectable character. It was carried with the dissentient voices of two most re spectable Gentlemen, who, in a manly, fair, and open manner expressed their disapprobation of it, and were beard with attention and respect.—Read and laid on the table. His Grace presented a similar Petition from the Town of Bedford.— Laid on the table. Lord ANSON presented a similar Petition from the Inhabitants of Litchfield, which was also laid on the table. His Lordship took occasion to state, that he viewed with great regret, that to a Protest which vas signed against this Petition, the nine first signa tures were those of Clergymen !—as he could never tee without disapprobation any attempt on the part of any member of the Reverend Body to interfere in politics. The Earl of CARNARVON presented a similar Petition from two united Parishes of the City of Vinchester.—Laid on the table. The House adjourned to Wednesday next. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mtn day the House net at one o'clock, and adjourned almost immediately. The Srraxen then proceeded to Carlton Palace, to rant to his MansTv the address voted by the House, and was attended by the usual retinue. °VIRTUES FOR A CHANGE OF MINISTRY REJECTED ay THE %mil—Our Readers may rely on the cor rectness of the following statement :—Shortly after the holidays, a message was delivered from his MA 'RS TY to th e M arqu i s o f L ANSDOWN , comman d ing hire to draw up and present for his MaJEsrv's ap probation, th e prcoet of a New Ministry, of which Lord GRENVILLE and the Duke of WELLINGTON Were to form a part.

Our Readers have already seen the Declaration of the Monarchs at Troppau " that the system they pursae is founded on treaties already existing ; and that they have no doubt of the assent of the Courts of Paris and London." Last night, in the House of Peers, Lord GREY expressed a wish to be informed, whether any Treaty existed, which bound England to resist all changes of internal government disap proved by those Sovereigns, as set forth in this De claration? Lord LIVERPOOL denied the existence of any Treaty imposing such an obligation, and stated, that a communication from Troppau on the subject of Naples had reached this country, to which an answer was returned, conveying the views of his MAJESTY'S Ministers respecting Naples, which lat ter Paper should be very speedily laid before Par- liament. As to the " Declaration," he admit ted such a document did exist—but the pub lished version of it was imperfect and incorrect.— The communication promised by the Noble Earl will be looked for with much anxiety, from the uncertainty which yet prevails respecting the intentions of Minis ters as to the affairs of Naples. Verbal explanations in Parliament must almost necessarily be reserved and general, whilst negotiations are yet pending ; but it may be presumed that a document, intended no doubt, to be distinctly understood, will remove any suspicions of insincerity entertained of his MAJESTY'S Minist ers. Lord ELEENISOROUGH affected great surprise that any one should now dream of petitioning for the restoration of her MAJESTY'S rights, as, by the aban donment of the Pains and Penalties Bill, her rights remained as before. Lord HOLLAND explained to this Noble Lord, that there were men, high in the law and eminent in station, who were of opinion that the QUEEN had a legal right to have her name in serted in the Liturgy; and that it was not, therefore, so very surprising that the People, seeing her name excluded from the Liturgy; and seeing her, moreover, without Palace or Establishment, should Petition to have her rights restored to her. Lord ELLENIOROUGH then owned that the question was liable to very conside rable doubt and difficulty.—lndeed, my Lord! you see you have still something to learn from Lord HOLLAND ! The hole-and-corner men seem resolved, now that the Country openly expresses its detestation of their private machinations and foul calumnies, vomited forth from their secret lurking-places, to endeavour to bully and brow-beat their countrymen who wish to have everything open and above-board. Of this we had a shining example at the Egyptian Hall, on Wednesday; and yesterday there was a similar exhi bition at Blackheath, the particulars of which are given in our columns this day. The conduct of the Duke of WELLINGTON cannot fail to remind the Public of the fable of the Fox and the sour Grapes! While Ministers thought they could influence the county freeholders to get up what they chose to call Loyal Addresses, every encourage ment was given to call forth the public voice—ob viously with the aim to place all these loyal effu sions to their own credit, as a set-off against the public indignation expressed respecting the Bill of Pains and Penalties—but finding themselves foiled, his Grace, a distinguished member of their body, can new call such Meetings " a farce"—" a mob!" Yes, this is the way in which his Grace speaks of the Hampshire Meeting. His Grace seems to have en joyed the intimacy of Emperors and Kings to some purpose. They owe him much, and he seems to owe them something in return. County Meetings farces ! What shall we have next in the march to the Mo narchical principle! On the subject of the coalition of Kings, we must entreat our Readers to peruse with attention the letter from the King of FRANCE to the King of NAPLES, given in another column. We imagine there will be found but few who can doubt, after reading this letter, that the wishes of the King of FRANCE are in accordance with the views of the holy men at Troppau. The Pans Papers of Sunday are almost entirely filled with details of the celebration of the Anniver sary of the Martyrdom of Louis XVI. on the pre ceding day. _ BERGAMI, it appears, did not quit Paris in conse quence of an order from the French Government.— " His residence here," says The Journal de. Paris, es which did not attract much attention, did not give rise to any circumstance of a nature to justify such I l an order." Ao article from Vienna, of the 10th instant, says: —" Preparations for war continue with increased ac tivirk the FOPS has granted, a military passage through his rtites fo 50,000 Austrians; but he big; it is Said, insisted upon the observance of strict neu trality."-:-The Kiilg of Payssfat Is said to have left Berlin on the 12th instant; to prOteed to Laybach. An article from Milan kontains an official notice of the intention of the Emperor of AUSTRIA to pay off the debts of the Italian States.—England may surely ask, therefore, for some share in his recollection. LETTER FROM THE KING OF FRANCE TO TIIE KING OF NAPLES. " Paris, December 3, 1820. " gta, sty BlovnEtt--Amidst the circumstances in which the events of the last five months have placed the States confided by Paornmstez to the care of your Majesty, you could not for an instant have doubted of the continued interest felt by me towards you, and of my prayers both for your individual happiness and that of your People. Your Majesty is not ignorant of the power ful motives that have impeded the more early expression of the sentiments with which I am animated, and of that counsel which I felt authorized, by the most sincere friendship, to offer you. But I cannot now allow myself to hesitate longer. Informed by my Allies at Troppau of the invitation sent by them to your Majesty, I ought to unite my instances with theirs, both as the Member of an Alliance whose object is to secure the tranquil lity and independence of every State, and as the Sovereign of a People friendly to the Nation governed ►y your Majesty, if not as a sincerely affectionate relative. I cannot too strongly urge you to come and assist in person at the new Congress of my Al lies that is about to take place. I can assert to you, Sire, that their views in this Congress are to reconcile the interests and gtoaeral welfare that the paternal solicitude of your Majesty would desire for your People, with the duties they are them selves pledged to fulfil to their States and to the world. The most pure glory awaits your Majesty. You will assist in fixing the bases of social order in Europe; you will preserve your People from the misfortunes that threaten them, and secure, by that accord which is so necessary between power and liberty, their felicity and prosperity through a long series of generations. " If my infirmities had permitted, I should willingly have ac companied your Majesty to this august Congress ; but when you perceive that in writing this letter I have been compellee to avail myself of the hand of another, you will easily judge of the impossibility under which I am placed of following, on this point, the impulses of my heart. " You may rely, notwithstanding, that those of my Ministers who may assist there in my name, will omit nothing in furnish. ing you with all the support you might have expected from me. Your Majesty, in taking a determination confcrrmable to the wish manifested by me and my Allies, will convey to your People an assurance of your affection by so much the greater, inasmuch as that determination, I feel wholly convinced, will be the most certain means of securing to them the blessings of peace and rational liberty. " I request your Majesty to accept the expression of the senti ments of esteem, of friendship, and of high consideration, with which I am, Sir, my brother, your Majesty's true brother, (Signed) " LOUIS." Dutch and Hamburgh Mails arrived last night. An article from Stockholm states, that the yellow fever had broken out at the island of St. Bartholomew, and proved fatal to many of the inhabitants. It is remarked, that this dreadful scourge had never visited that island before. An immense quantity of specie has been shipped on board the English packet in the mouth of the Elbe, for conveyance to England. In Saxony, which prides herself on being the cradle of the Protestant religion, the Catholic Clergy, it ap ' pears, prohibit intermarriages with Protestants, tin less the parties engage to educate their children in the Catholic religion; and the Priests have even gone the length of declaring marriages celebrated by the Protestant Clergy null and void, and the parties guilty of the mortal sin of adultery ! The Univer sity of Leipsic has taken the alarm at this illegal in terference of the Catholic Clergy, and resolved to bring the subject under the cognizance of the Diet. The whole revenue of the Swedish Customs, for the year 1819, was above 2,058,260 rix dollars Banco ; and, after deducting every expense, there remains a net receipt of 1,570,150 rix dollars, which is above 500,000 dollars more than in 1818. The custom, which has till now prevailed, of sepa rate burying-grounds for each of the Christian confes sions, has been abolished in the Prussian dominions, as contrary to the spirit of genuine Christian tolerance. Yesterday, his MAJESTY held a Court, at his Palace in Pall-mall. At half-past two, the SPEAKER of the House of Commons arrived at the Palace in his State carriage, followed by a number of Members. They were con ; ducted into the State Room, adjoining the Crimson Drawing-room. The SPEAKER was received, on his entrance into the Palace-yard, with Gad save the King, by the Band of the Life Guards. On his MAJESTY entering his State Apartments, he gave an audience to Colonel UPTON, the Field Officer in Waiting, who made a Report to the KING of the effective state of the three Regiments of Foot Guards. The SPEAKER, and the Members of the House of Commons accompanying him, were then conducted through the Grand Hall and the Octagon Hall to the State Room, by Mr. MASH, the Gentleman Usher in Waiting, and the Lord Chamberlain. On their en trance into the Throne Room, where the Gentlemen composing the Honourable Corps of Gentlemen Pen sioners formed an avenue to the KING on his Throne, surrountiod by his Great Officers of State and prin cipal Attendants, the SPEAKER read the Address of the House of Commons, to which his MAJESTY was pleased to return• a most gracious Answer. His MAJESTY gave an audience to Viscount CASTLEREAGH. The town of Greenwich was this morning consi derably agitated, in consequence of the proceedings last night at the Green Man, Blackheath—(&e the nest pagc).—Upwards of thirty persons, concerned in the affray, were taken into custody last night and this morning, who were to undergo an examination this day, before the Magistrates there. The Lon') MAyon and several Aldermen, among whom was Sir WILLIAM CURSIS, were yesterday ele gantly entertained at dinner by the Worshipful Com pany of Drtipers, at their Hall, in Throgmorton-street IVdI'AL INTELLIGEN'Cf.

Admiral Sir ALEXANDER COCHRANE succeeds Lord EXMOUTH, in the course of a few days, as Com mander-in-Chief at Plymouth and Captain SKENE is appointed Flag Captain. A letter of the 12th inst. from Cuxhaven says— " This forenoon, the Heligoland schnigge, the Hope, accompanied by the packet barge, the Courier, sailed from the port with a fresh south-east wind for Heli goland, having on board the Hamburgh Mails for England (supposed to be six in number). Ice is indeed still floating about in the mouth of the Elbe, but the two vessels will, most likely, work their way into the open sea. Mr. DUTTON, the English Agent, is gone with them, in order to deliver in person to the Cap tain of the English packet, the great quantity of specie sent by these IVlails." Wednesday se'nnig,ht, a man of the name of George Allan, while employed in sweeping the chimney of a house in High-street, Dumfries, lost his balance, fell to the bottom, and was killed. At Hewell Hall, Worcester, the seat of the Earl of PLYMOU nr, the following number of game were killed, by a private shooting party, during the Christ mas holidays, viz.-569 pheasants, 551 hares, 1462 rabbits, six woodcocks, four partridges, and six ducks, making a total of 2,598 head. The whole were killed in the woods and plantations. ' The banking-house of JONES, LOYD, and Co. Lot':- bury, was robbed, on Wednesday afternoon, in a very daring manner. A little after five o'clock, as the clerks were making up the Bank-notes into sepa rate parcels, a man rushed in, snatched one of them from the counter, and made off with it. The action was so sudden, and his disappearance so quick, that though pursuit was immediately attempted, the de predator effected his escape. It is supposed he had a confederate who held the door open to facilitate his retreat. The value of the notes stolen was upwards of Four Thousand Two Hundred Pounds! After the Opera last night, Mrs. &wrens, Nr 4 ....0 sat with Lady HARCOURT and a large patty, in the orchestra box at Drury-Lane Theatre, was intro duced by Mr. ELLISTON into the Green-room. She expressed herself delighted with Miss WILSON. Mrs. SIDDONS was recognized during the performance, and was loudly cheered by the audience. Mrs. COUTTS, last week, on the anniversary of her wedding day, regaled with roast beef, plum-pudding, and a liberal quantity of ale, all the debtors and their families confined in the County Jail of Stafford. KING ROBERT BRUCE —About two years ago we remarked, at the time the workmen, in digging the foundation of the New Church at Dunfermline, discovered the remains of king ROBERT BRUCE, t! .e Barons of the Exchequer of Scotland, and many other distinguished individuals, visited his tomb, and having ascertained the authenticity of the remains, a celebrated modeller was employed to take casts cf the monarch's skull ; we have just seen one of them, which has been elegantly mounted in a rose-seed case, and sent by the Honourable the Barons of the Exchequer as a present for his Manny's library. BOW-EXREET.—Yesterday, jc•nz . s 77nters,theland lord of the Star and Garter public-house, appeared to a summons, to answer the charge of H.

The charge being satisfactorily proved, the defendant was convicted in the penalty of £3, which he refused to pay, and was very insolent. A distress warrant was in consequence issued to be levied upon his goods. Sun:Ny.lmi Mazur?, JAN. 46.—Beef, Is. 6d. to ss. 4J. per stone of Sibs.; Mutton, 41. 61 to ss. 4d. Veal. 44. ed. to 7.. Od.
