TO CORRESPONDENTS. ••• In the Political Department of the STAR, hs Readers are swat that due attention has been paid to the importance of the events pro gressing in FRANCE. This Paper not only presents the spirit of the best French Journals ; but the original observations of an intelligent Correspondent in Paris, are occasionally introduced in its columns• The Revolutions in BELGIUM, POLAND, and SWITZERLAND, are events which have so rapidly succeeded each other, that a Journalist has found it difficult to make his arrangements keep pace,wids his desire gratify his readers, with the easliest information. These anangemen& will not be neglected; but, in the mean time, the conductors of the STAR invite public men, in all countries, who desire that interesting facts and statements should, in an 1110OARIMED MANNER, be laid before the British nation. to transmit the same to the Sian Office, London. They are particularly anxious to receive original communications from Bel gium and Poland; and also from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Prussia, and Austria, whether from English travellers or residents, a:public-spirited natives. Hitherto the world has been hood-winked by Journals and Gazettes, published under arbitrary suroeillesos; but &genuine British Journal ought to derive its information, as far as possible, from less suspicious sources ; and this it is the determination, of the conductors of the STAR, to effect as far as possible. TH E EVENING STAR. LONDON. TUESDAY, JANUARY 4. Another conference of the five great Powers on the affairs of Belgiurd, took place this day at the Foreign Office, in Downing-street. --...--- We think it proper to call our RaeAlers' attention to our exclusive extracts from the French Papers, in the adjoining page—particularly the extracts announcing some further steps in the progress of the revolution in Switzerland. Quebec and Montreal Papers to the Ist and 3d December are this day received, at the North and South American Coffee-house. By the former we learn, that the legislature of Upper Canada had been further prorogued to the 17th December ; and that the legislature of New Brunswick had summoned, for the despatch of business, on the 7th The Montreal Papers state,that the intelligence was far from being of a favourable nature; but the confusion there are not distinct. • accounts this day from Warsaw, which state UAW as, aid•elle-camp of to Emperor of, arrived in that City,l,llf ffleptckes; aadl 1 y, • '4.r. ~,, that NICHOLAS had ordered the Council of Administration, to conform to the online of the Grand Duke CONSTAN CHLocrinz, the Dictator, on learaing that the Autocrat was pisparing theme, and ether stmeg measures— particularly, that General Rosen had received orders to simples on Poland..—proclaimed his determination to invade, and despoil, the Russian frontiers, in the event of the Poles being disturbed. MP The Message of President Licxsolt, delivered at the meeting of Congress, on the 7th December, is a document replete with the good sense, and sound judgment, which, almost up to the present period of North American inde pendence, has, with happy uniformity, distinguished similar documents. Previously to Gen. JAcx sox's election to his present distinguished situation, his character had a colour 'given to It, which made the admirers of American mode ration, tremble a little for its preservation ; but as far as his conduct bas yet developed his character, we think be displays as much temperate judgment, and regard, for sound policy, as any of his predecessors. In the review which he has given of the relations, at present existing with the nations of Europe, it is highly satisfactory to bear him attribute to Great Britain, in her late negotiations with the United States, " the most frank and friendly spirit ;" and that they have been "concluded in a man ner, strongly indicative of a sincere desire, to cultivate the best relations with the United States." This is the policy which, we hope, will always actuate this country, in negotiation, with her full-grown daughter. It is essential for the inte rests, and certainly consonant to the feelings, of both mother and daughter, to keep up something approximating to the natural affections between them ; and we think we observe this sentiment much more perspicuously, than formerly, per vading the literature of both. It was to be expected, that the late revolution in France would call forth some expression of congratulation from the present PRESIDENT. The terms used on the occasion, are at the same time, judicious and energetic ;—judieious in marking adherence to the sound policy of non-intervention ; and ener getic in marking, as the peculiar cause of American con gratulation and joy, the success of that maxim, " auspicious to the dearest interests of mankind," that " the public will, should be the paramount authority." It is pleasing to observe Russian and Austrian policy, as regards their relation with the United States, spoken of in terms of unambiguous amity; and that, generally, the inter national affairs of the United States, are well arranged. for a continuance of peace and commercial prosperity. Of the internal prosperity of the United States, the Mes sage likewise affords the most satisfactory evidence ; and that part of the Message, which treats of the negociations with " the red men of the south and west," is in the highest degree creditable, both to the President, and the people he repre sents. As we have more than once inserted in the STAR, the affecting appeal to Congress, of the tribes alluded to, some explanation, always appeared to us, was required, to the world, as to the policy of the American Government, towards them. Races, of the human species, so anoma lously situated, and so apparently unimprovable, could not fail to interest the philanthropist. We are happy, there fore, to receive so able, and convincing an apology— we are happy to observe that principles of justice towards the red men, are not disavowed, as they have so frequently been, to the disgrace of what has so often past under the ambiguous terra—civilization. " As a Govern mint," says the enlightened PRESIDENT, "we have as little right to controul them, as we have to pre. scribe laws to foreign states." This maxim ad mitted, the result has been a nsgociation, on the fair principles of remuneration for inconveniencies to be suffered, and advantages to be obtained; and thus "the waves of civilisation and population, in rolling to the westward," are occasioning, it is to be hoped, as little misery, as inflexible circumstances will admit. A doubt, however, will still remain in he mind of the phi losopher. Can any race of men remain unalterable, or un improvable, by circumstances, suited to produce their im provement ? And if so, is not the acknowledgment of their gradual extirpation, still an acknowledgment of some defi ciency, in the energies of the benevolent ? to The property-tax in 1815, proved the real annual value of all our real property, was about 51 millions, and on this, and industry, the Goverment have taxed and assessed to the amount of 70 millions. But in such a condition, Cernuites himself could not have imagined, that by destroying the local currency of the country bankers, any Government would have reduced private incomes one half, and the real property to 30 millions, and yet continue to collect the 70 millions ! This is the key to all our social difficulties. The restrictions on the country bankers, who's secured currency, would at least be as secure as Bank of England notes without security, have rendered it impracticable for farmers to pay either la bourers or landlords, reduced manufacturers to the French system, and carried despair and misery to every fire-side. All men of sense and practical knowleege, therefore exclaim —take off 20 or 30 millions of taxes, or give us the usual and necessary means of paying them. The people " sonnet make bricks without straw." CITY, ONE O'CLOCK. At length the Speech of the President of Amerioa has come to hand ; its immense length and copious details al most tires its readers ; it coincides with the French and Eng lish Governments, in recommending non-intervention : it also passes great encomiums on the present French Govern ment, and boasts of the prospects of America. At present we do not hear of any Express from Paris, it being still a holiday there Consols, which left off yesterday at 82# for the Account, opened at 824 I; at present they are 82* to 82i. In the Foreign Market nothing doing. CITY. TWO O'CLOCK The speech of Mr. O'Connell at the dinner at Drogbeda, and the calling out of the Yeomanry in Ireland, have made some impression on the Funds. Consols, which were in the early part of the day at 824 for the Account, have been done at 821; since which a re action has taken place, and Consols are at present 82f 4. A good deal of heavy stock has come to market. It is also said that the Scotch banks have been selling, which also de pressed the Market. The private letters from Paris still express hopes that the present government willfully maintain its power ; they alio add that the state of Paris is daily • •••••6. been summoned, February.

The Prussian and Spanish Ministers had interviews with Viscount Palmerston yesterday at the Foreign-office. A Deputation of Soap-boilers had a conference yesterday at the Treasury with the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Vice-President of the Board of Trade. The Earl of Carlisle left town yesterday on a visit to Vis count Clifden, at his seat at Roehampton Viscount Howick left town yesterday on a visit to the Marquis and Marchioness of Salisbury, at Hatfield, Herts. The Chancellor of the Exchequer entertained a select party at dinner yesterday, at his residence in Downing-street. Earl Grey has removed from his residence in Berkeley square to the residence, in Downing-street, attached to the office of First Lord of the Treasury. IMPROVEMENTS IN THE TEMPLE. Amongt the renovations and improvements with which the Hon. Society of Templar" have recently embellished the Temple, the most conspicuous are the creation of a new and commodious Exchequer-office, flanked on the north b a substantial and elegant range of chambers, which stretch from east to west across King's Bench-walk. In the centre of this range a lofty archway will, by a series of gra nite steps, afford a convenient access to and from Mitre court and Fleet-street. An addition of about 16 feet in length is also being made to the east end of Middle-Temple Hall, whilst the greater part of the buildings on the eastern side of Middle Temple-gardens have been pulled down, and new edifices erected on their site, with greater attention to taste and comfort in their construction. Two very elegant build ings have also been added to the south-east wing of Paper buildings, forming a handsome termination towards the Thames. The whole of these edifices are faced with Port land stone, and in the solidity of their construction and beauty of appearance. are highly creditable to the public spirit and vertu of the Honourable Society which has caused them to be erected. Lettere have been received in the city, stating that dis turbances have broken out in Finland. Our information is front a very respectable quarter, but we know not the degree of authority to which the statement is entitled.—Chroaicle. Dien.—At his Lordship's house, in Grosvenor-square, on the 6th inst. Henrietta Maria, Marchioness of Aylesbury. The Marchioness of Anglesey and the younger branches of the family still remain in London. Her Ladyship will shortly take her departure for the beautiful seat in Wales. The Marchioness is not expected to join the Marquis in Dublin until early in the spring. Lady Mildmay, of Dogmersfield Park, the lady of the ma nor at Odiham, has made a proposal to grant certain por tions of waste lands in this parish for the nee of the poor. The Rev. Dr. Lalley, Rector of Drayton Basset, has li berally instructed his agent to take 35 per cent. off his pre sent composition for tithes. Saturday morning the house of Mr. M. Reilly, silver smith, Middle-row, Holborn, was broken into by a-gang of burglars, who stole property to the amount of nearly 3001. with which they got clear off. A few days ago a poor man was found starved to death, near the Laneasterian School in Sheffield. 1689.-Bcorcu CAMERONIANS.OII the abdication of James 11. the city of Glasgow raised a regiment of 500 men, and sent them to Edinburgh, under thee ommandet the Earl of Argyle, to guard the Covenanters. This regi ment got the name of " Scotch Covenanters," and was af terwards the 26th regiment of foot.—lhid GIBRALTAR, Dec. 16, 1830.—About three weeks at the annual practice, at Willis's batteries and the cre mates near, at a target, on the eastern beach, all the men of the two guns in the excavations were killed, or dreadfully wounded, by the explosion of a portable magazine ; eight men were blown out of the embrasures, and, from a fall of 600 feet, were picked up dead, and horribly mutilated. The . segeant and another man were killed near the guns, and the bombardier died a few hours after being sent to the hospital; the other six men of the detachment are recover ing, with some broken bones, and one with the loss of an eye. Captain Prince, Royal Engineers, was the only per son present not dangerously hurt ; be stood in the passage, in rear of the guns; his face, hands, and clothes were much burnt, bat he was only confined to his bed a week, and is now well; it, luckily, rained hard, which prevented many amateurs from being present. The Exeter Gazette states that on Tuesday morning, the out-houses of Houghton Farm, in the parish of Higbweek, near Newton, together with a threshing machine, and several corn-ricks, were destroyed by fire. The farm is the property of C. H. Monroe, Eaq. and is tenanted by Mr. George Cochran. It is a very extratudinary circum stance connected with the fire, that although the snow was lying very thickly on the ground, not a single trace of any footsteps could be discovered. Rtes AND WHEAT BREAD.—BoiI two pounds and a half of whole rice in as much water as will make it into a very stiff paste ; let it stand all night, and next morning knead it with fourteen pounds of wheat flour, two handfuls of salt, and a pint of mild yeast (with the addition of very little, if any, water,) will make it into excellent bread. It must stand a full bour or more to rise before the fire, and must be baked an hour and twenty minutes in a moderate oven. It produces twenty-eight pounds of dough.— Reports of the Society for Bettering the Condition of the Poor. Horrid. Vol. 3, p. 303, note. RECEIPT WHICH HAS BEEN PRACTISED IN TOR[- SHIRE FOR SUITING COALS TO THE coon.—Take the ashes of small cinders which fall from the fire, and fill them very well with water, till like bricklayers' mortar ; put them on the back part of the fire ; they make, together with coal, a most pleasant fire. If the grate be of cast iron be careful in putting on the wet fuel not to throw it on the iron back, lest it should crack. If the rich would give some of their ashes, which are often half cinders, to their poor neighbours, and tell them bow to use them, it would be a charity. METHOD OF PILIPAILIWO Tug MORTAII.—Draw the ashes to the front of the fun-place, and having made a hole in the middle of them, pour on water to suit the quantity of ashes ; then let them soak a few minutes, and they will mix themselves without being touched, because if touched at first they will daub the hearth, but by giving them time to mix, little wet will remain ; at you easy mix them a* of doors. Reports of the Society far Bettering the Cenallia' of the Poor. Vol. iv. p. 140. LITERATURE. Freese. ifegarkes. This Idegasine comnraoss the new year with a number, containing several articles of intrinsic value. The lira article, contandag a traelatkaof Walleastsis's Camp, boa Schiller, will be reed by all admirers of the most powerful dramatic post of Ocamany. We cannot, however, bet think, that the antique en the translation of Lord Labia Gower, would have been awe cornet, had it born less seam The second article, " en the Punishment of Daily" we coosider one of the Intrinsically salable articles to which we have alluded. We feel so interested on this abject, that had we space, we would extract the greatest part of this way cogent away. The third article is on the late Prealt ■evslutioe, and contains a condensation of arises facts net gessrally known, principally ex. tracted from the history written by Mr. Colton. The fourth article is es the oda of Dr. Philips's pemodoo..—cued will be found an sea. grade agleam of one of those seskshadai gaucherie*, which appear likely to extend revolution to the Chureh, u well as State. The fifth article is a spirited Iffe sketch, entitled " Crueller' and Jenson," which all will peruse with interest. The Epigrams from the Pasch we think flat and hardly worth insertion. The sixth prose article, is a letter by Mr. Galt, on West India Slavery. The reasoning of this letter we do not admire, or approve its sentiment. The seventh ar. tide is a letter by Swing to Oliver York. The eighth is a notice, ac. companying a characteristic sketch of Dr. 111‘ Ginn, the Editor of the Standard. The ninth article is, we think, the most valuable of this nat. bee, and we recommend it to all who have yet to form thsk *dew on Parliamentary Reform, or who have curiosity eseeslo w laweedepee the subject. We noticed yesterday this article in another depart. ment of our Paper. The tenth article is a review of Boaden's " Life of Mrs. Jordan." The eleventh, a short sketch of the Polish iota maim. The twelfth article, is a notice and translation of one at M r. tin Luther's Spiritual Songs. And the 13th article, and closing one, is entitled "L'Areey," being a farewell to the year. and "On things in ge neral." We deem the sentiments on Lord Grey's Administration pre mature and unjust. OLYMPIC TH BATHE. The opening of this theatre last night was attended by a very crowthrl and in the boxes, a fashionable audience. The address spoken by Madame Waldo, containing several witty allusions to the oppodtian which she may meet with in her new speculation as " stage-pro. prietor," and bespeaking the patronage of the public, was reale. ed with much applaw. To the good humour to which the au. diens were brought by the lady's spirited and amusing ap. peal, we mast attribute the patient indulgence with which they sat out the representation of the entirely new huddle, called Mary Queen qf Seas, which is a sketqh hose Sir W. SCOTT'S Ab bott. Miss Foosz pasnata the royal prisoner. In grace and dig. nity that lady seemed to us an excellent representative of the unhappy Queen. Her taunts to the Lady Douglas were given with great deli cacy and archness, and in the interview with the deputation from the council, her acting was very excellent. and was much and de. served!. applauded. In that scene the Lords Lindsay and llotheen (Mesms. listouovast and BECRISITIII) in executing their Commission, certainly by no mesas failed, through excess of gentleness or courtesy. The "Grand Allegorical Burlesque Barletta," called %lapis Bevels, which followed, was completely sue. earful. The dialogue is a string of puns, by no means destitute of wi.. and for the most pert :Mahn" to the circurnstaaces under which the heroine, Peados (Madame VEST RIO, makes hes debut in the Olympic regions. The songs and (bonuses. which an. of coarse, all parodies, were received, most et them with , and many of them with merited applwase. The concluding sation of Pandora 'to the audience met with very cheering encouragement. It is in these words : " Ye Bales and Beaax, who adorn our bog rows Ye Gods who preside in the high ones; Ye critics, who at all so snug in the pit— An assembly's of clever and shy ones ! Let the smile et content on our efforts be bent • Hope anxiously waits an enema O'er the fate dooming scale let mercy . prevail, (Ind be kind to poor Huh Pandora. The Little Joekey followed; and the impel ay of tieing out an audience by too numerous and entertaboneets, was well illustrated by the exclamation of some persons h the gallery (when Miss FOOTE's mug, Arissah, " The Boy in yellow wins the day." was encored), " Oh, we an kept too long already."— Miss Foove played Arise& with as much vivacity and playfulness m we have ever before seen bee emit ; and the " Gendensan" in Ploriolde, might be said to be reepestable.

It appears by the subjoined extract from " Hallam's Constitutional History," that the principle of vote by ballot is no new theory, however questionable it may be in pen tics:-- " Mr. Wortley brought in a bill, which passed the Com mons in 1710, for voting by ballot. It was opposed by Wharton and Godolphin, in the Lords, as dangerous to the constitution, and thrown out. Wortley, he says, went the next year to Venice, on purpose to inquire into the ejects of the ballot; which prevailed in that republic.
