THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 1522. THE FUNDS. STOCK EXCHANGE, TWELVE O'CLOCK. In the earlier part of the morning the Market was heavy, at SOI (Consols) for the Account, but an eminent. French House • came into the Market and purchased fifty thousand, which rose them to 801, at which price they remain up to this houri with a steady Market. The news by the French Papers this morning of the augmentation of the Cordon de Sanataire on the Spanish frontiers, is the general topic on 'Change, with various opinions on the sulsject. FOREIGN FUNDS.—AII foreign Securities this morning are ra tlier dull in sale, and little business doing in them up to this hour. A Spanish Loan is talked of, but there is no certainty, u when it will take place.—Spanish New 62; Old 62; Chi -I:an 79k; Russian 821; Prussian 86; Neapolitan 731; Danish 88# to ; Columbian 101; New 83g. STOCK EXCHANGE—ONE O'CLOCK. The Market opened very flat this morning, but some rumours i , pecting the favourable condition of the Revenue produced a little bustie, and occasioned a slight advance. The impulse, however, was very soon spent, and the Market relapsed into its former state of heaviness and stagnation. in the Foreign Market there has been a good deal of business. Clailian 13 the Stock most in requisition. PRICES OF STOCKS AT ONE . 0 CLOCK: Bank Stack 240-3 per Cent. Reduced 79V vs 3 per Cent. Consols shut. Per Cents. 90 1 / 2 -4 per Cent.

The American ship Ann and Hope is arriveil in Channel from China: she sailed on the 19th of February, and brings advice, that it was expected the differences would shortly be settled. The Company's ship Repulse sailed from China for England, on the 12th of February ; and the Kent was to follow on the 2,Gth of that month ; and, as she will probably bring decisive intelligence, her artival will be very ansiously looked for. ANOTHER Accor.—Letters have just been re: cei yeti from die Ann and Hope. Things look more and more favourable; and it was expected the Factory would 'Tulin irwoe,iiately, on receiving a cho s v (or otdet) from the Vtcxmoy, which was expected about Tire Tithes of Ireland, a source of great oppression gr.d misery to that ill-fated country, and a very fit st.b]ia:t for le:-,islative interference, came last night bciore the House of Commons, in a discussion of a v.ry siosular character. Mr. DALY, pursuant to a pr:vious notice, rose to make his promised motion for a commutation of Irish Tithes, when Mr. PEEL sner , es:ed to him to defer the question until neat Session. MI. DALY then called on the Irish Secre tary fora pledge to bring the subject forward, when the Hon. Gentleman, with " the utmost promptitude," as Dr. Prolix would say, most explicitly pledged himself—that at the opening of the next Session of Parliament, be would- either bring forward the sub •ct of the Irish Tithes, or state to the House why he did not do so. Mr. GOULDUIIN, though an Irish Se cretary, is not an Irishman, and therefore cannot claim one of the few privileges of the natives of the sister kingdom, that of being allowed to speak twice, in order to be understood ; and yet this pledge, as it is called, which is no pledge at all, satisfied Mr, DALY, who abandoned the motion to which he stood pledged. Thanks to Mr.HumE, how ever, the House, though disappointed in the first instance, bad the subject discussed. Mr. Hume, in an able speech, sheaved, that the Church 1--overnment in Ireland was the main spring of dissatisfaction and &affection ; and that as Tithes were the most tangible part of that government, they had been the principal cause of the disturbances that had taken place. He denied that, as had been asserted by an lion. Member, a Cletgyman had abetter claim to his tithes than any man had to his own estate, con tending that it sr as in the power of Government to change the disposition of that property, with due re gard to vested interests. He contrasted the acknow le4ed want of spiritual instruction in Ireland with the Princely revenues that were exacted. He said, so great were the abuses which prevailed in the Church of Ireland, that Bishops, receiving £lO,OOO and VO,OOO a year for their SpiritutO labours and holy seal, remained absent from the country for twenty years together ! The late Bishop of DERRY remained for fifteen or twenty years with his family in France —so that he never set his feet on the ground which contributed so largely to his revenues. The revenues of the Archbishop of ARMAGH amounted to £15,000 a year, but it appeared by the statement of Mr. WAKEFIELD that the rates and rents of that Arch bishop might be made to amount to 1.350,000 f—a su m which, we presume, the warmest advocate for • Episcopal magnificence will not justify.— Mr. HI.ME concluded his argumentative and unan swerable statement by moving— 4, That early in the next Session the House will enter upon an inquiry into the state of the Church Eatablishinent, and the mode of collecting Tithes in Ireland, with a view to make such alterations 44 might be found necessary." "N NEWPORT said, he could trot be satisfied teclaration of the Right Hon. Secretary (Mr. r), that he would uezt SCSSiOII propose some • • • - :t vpstursyn .or tell them why he did anti when five years ate, in the House of Lords. the Earl of Livaaroot. po sitively said, that a commutation. though not applica ble to England, would probably be applicable to Ire land, and was then under consideration of Government. He said one of the promises held out at the Union, by Mr. PITT and Lord CASTIAREAGH was, that a commutation of tithes should take place immediately, and the House was bound to nuke good the promise, upon the faith of which Ireland had consented to the Union. The Honourable Baronet concluded with moving as an Amendment, that the House should pledge itself to ,take the subject of tithes into their consideration early in the next Session, with a view to substitute a mode of providing for the Established Church different from the present vexatious and inju rious system. Mr. GOULBEIRN, in a speech nearly as unmeaning as his pledge, opposed the Motion, which, after considerable discussion, was negatived by a ma jority of seven. At a late hour this forenoon we received a Spanish Mail. The Papers from Madrid are not of so recent a date as those that had previously reached us by ex press. They state, that on the 26th of May, the Bat talion of Barcelona is said to have had an action with the faction of ROMAGOSIVINKO, in which 25 of the in,urgents were killed, and 40 wounded or taken prisoners; the Battalion had a Captain and one man wounded, and a Serjeant killed. A Lisbon Mail, bringing Papers to the 9th instant, reached us this forenoon. They contain little addi• tional information relating to the late conspiracy, the following extract being all that is stated on the subject: t eterdltl llll6 ar I Sig N With the dei Gov Lau RN, IL LISBON, MAY 8. The conspiracy, so fortunately discovered, has not excited so much sensation here a; might have been feared : only four conspirator: appear to have been arrested, and two of these Are servants. M. Januario das Neves, formerly Under Secretary to Lord Beresford, with some others of his own rank, being discontented with the present state of things, formed a plan to overthrow the Constitution. Their first object was to gain the army, but it was necessary first to find some. Officer of rail; to head them, and they fixed on General Luiz do Rego Bareilo as likely to join them. Januario accordingly applied to him, but he declined giving a decisive answer, and re quested him to return at a certain hour the fol lowing day. The Minister of Justice was then made acquainted with the circumstance, and Januario developed the plot before concealed witnesses.— He was immediatel•• taken up. No person of high rank is named as being implicated, but Many are suspected, whether with or without sufficient reason will doubtless appear hereafter, wl.en the affair shall be fully investigated. Ttre French Papers of Monday rep re , ent the affairs of the Greeks in a critical situation. The Turks are making preparations for advancing on Livadia and the Morea with an army of 60,000 men, under the Puha of Salonica. Larissa is still in the possession of the Turks; and, says a letter fiern Semlin, " If fortune is favourable to the Musselmen, which people are sufficiently disposed to believe, on account of the number of their troops, their fanaticism against the Christians, and the .assistance which they ;-eceire far their military operations.kom English beers, there is reason to fear a great catastrophe. The Greeks will fight with the courage of despair, because they know that a Turkish amnesty is for them a sentence of death, and that their destruction is resolved on by the Divan." Accounts from Smyrna, of the 3d ult. state, that the Capitan Pacha was still at Scio, on the 30th of April. Except the twenty-one villages of Mastic, which were carefuliy guarded by troops, a'l the rest of the interior of the island continued to be pillaged, oevastated, and burned. Several quarters of the town were still on file, the air was infected with the stench of the carcases, they were seen floating on the sea, and striking against vessels. Since the first day when the Turks made the assault from eight to ten thousand individuals of all ages and both sexes are stated to have perished; upwards of fifteen thousand were confined as slaves in the citadel, or on board ves sels, but respecting whom, however, the Capitan Pacha waits the orders of his Government. The Turks return from time to time from the inte rior of the island to the town, bringing with them a number of women and children as slaves. The Journal de Paris has the following absurd story :—•" We have received a letter from Salamanca, of which we cannot guarantee the authenticity ; it contains the following details :—The treaty concluded some time ago between Spain and Portugal has soon received its execution ; 12,000 Portuguese troops, of whom 2000 are cavalry, and a fine park of artillery, under the command of SEPULVBDA, began to arrive here yesterday, attended by the Chief of the Staff, Don CABRAIRA. They form two divisions, the one marching on Segovia, the other on Valladolid. All the troops are in fine order:" The French Journals are principally filled with ac counts from Spain, but these are superseded by more authentic intelligence from that country contained in Madrid Papers to the 13th instant, which have been received by express. The Cortes are proceeding in the business of the nation calmly and dispassionately, without being either intimidated or influenced by the plots that are now and then exploding in the Provinces. Ou the um instant four Deputies, FLOES CAL• 0 • • • • • • DiIOW * SONIA, Rasizeol sod Pkwe, presented a pro position to the Cones, for an augmentation of 12,000 men to the Militia in active service, in consideration of the disturbed state of some of the Provinces and l the small number of the regular forces ; this body only to continue under arms for eight months in the year. The proposition, which Was supported by se veral Deputies, was agreed to. On the 9th, the Cones decreed the same pension to French refugees fleeing from prosecution at home for political offences, which they had previously granted to the Italian Patriots escaping from a fo ! reign invader. We extract the following from the Universal of the 12th instant: The Authorities having received information that during the night a meeting of factious indivi duals was intended to be held without the Puerta de Fuencarral, and towards the boundary of La Mon cloa, made the necessary arrangements for guarding the passages to that quarter, while the suspected houses were searched. For this purpose the national horse militia occupied the road from the Prado to the Puerta de Hierro, while the Commanding Gene ral in person, accompanied by a party of infantry, proceeded to execute the prescribed investigation. The result s-as, that there were' found in the inn known by the name of San Rafael, which is situated without the Puerta de Fuencarral, and the owner of which is Don Jtye Navarro del Dossal, Agent to the Queen of Etruria, four or five horses, some blunder busses, pleas of cartouches and powder, and four or five persons, who have been delivered into the hands of justice. " It appears that the project was to form a sedi- tious party for no other purpiise than that it might be said i❑ the Provinces that there were such bands in the neighbourhood of the capital. If this was the design, it has, for this time, been frustrated, and its authors must be convinced that the persons whose duty it is to preseive tranquillity, and disconcert such machinations, do not sleep on their posts. — Names arc mentioned as those of the men arrested, but we can only state for certain that the owner of the inn is one of the number." The French are strengthening the Cordon Sana taire on the Spanish frontier. General DUNADIEU is again spoken of as Ickpector-General. It is said that 6,000 men have received orders to march towards Perpignan and Bayonne. FRENCH Fusos, JUNE 17.—Tive per Cents. opened at 91f. 70c. closed at 91f. 45c. We have received a Hamburgh Mail, bringing Papers to the 15th instant, but their contents possess little interest. Oa the 10th of June the King of DEN.. MARK was invested with the Order of the Garter by Sir GEORGE NAILER.. The Emperor of It usstA lift Petersburgh on the 26th ult. for Wilna, where, after remaining a few days, he wills it is said, set out for a foreign Court. The intelligence from St. Petersburgh, which is to the Ist instant, is silent as to the question of peace or war ; but an article from Wilna, of the 23th ult. states, that a Courier had an ived there from St. Pe tersburgh, who had brought to his Imperial High ness the Grand Duke NICHOLAS the news, that the good understanding with the Turks is re•established. It is said that the Courier has also brought orders for the Guards to march back to St. Petersburgh. The KING returned to town from Kew on Tuesday night. Yesterday his MAJESTY gave audiences to the Earl of LIVERPOOL, Marquis of LONDONDERRY, Mr. PEEL, Viscount MEt.vmue, and the Earl of WARWICK.

The Duchess cf GOTII LAND (Queen of SWCDEW) set out on Friday for Aix-la-Chapelle, to meet her son, Prince OSCAR. Sir BENJAMIN BLOOMFIELD arrived at Knocklofty a few da) s since, on a visit to Lord HUTCHINSON. HAYM ARK ET.-COLMAN'S play of The Suicide was performed last night, but trots% ititstanding the ad mirable acting of C. Kuszßux, TERRY, and Mrs. CHATTEIiLEY, the audience did not choose to sanction the announcement for its repetition. The Wedding Day followed, and quite restored good temper and merriment. TERRI', as Sir Adam Contest, gave a rich and finished portraiture of the old school, and Mrs. CHATTERLEY, as the gay and youthful bride, acted with a degree of vivacity and ease which is sel dom surpassed. The house was numerously and genteelly attended. The Countess of WEMYSS and CHARTERIS gave a splendid Ball and Supper on Tuesday. night, at Charteris-House, Stratford-place. The dancing took place in the banqueting-room and another apartment. The promenade in the four drawing-rooms, above the ball-room, was brilliantly illuminated.

Miss Macatut.ev, so well known to the Public by her excellent personation of some of the first charac ters in Trageiy at the two Winter Theatres, as well as by the popular entertainments which she gave in town during three successive seasons, has recently made her appearance in the republic of letters, with a very elegant little volume, entitled Tales of the Drama. The object of this work is to convert the acted drama into the more popular form of narrative, for the purpose of rendering the real beauties of the British Stage more familiar and better known to the younger class of readers, and even of extending that knowledge to family circles, where the drama itself is forbidden. With this view, Miss Macauley has turned twenty of the Tragedies and Comedies of the elder and mockrn dramatists into as many very charming tales, in which the colloquial and scenic effect is admirably preserved, and the whole rendered strictly obedient to the most refined ideas of delicacy, and subservient to the best purposes of morality. Some pieces of original poetry, of considerable merit, are interspersed in these tales, which are em bellished by numerous elegant wood engravings. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, JUNE 19. THZ ZING V.
