~~ F 40 qJaztr)ciiiji:' • ' LONDON, MONDAY., FEBRUARY 3. Three o'clock, p. ,n. The Paris Papers received la:t night arc barren of intelligence. The Ultra (hairnets, us usual, re . resent the ati::irs of the Spanish Constitutionalists •in a deranged and deplorable condition, and the . Liberal Journals expose their misrepresentations. It Hs nu%v adinnted by the French Government and its 411oly Confederates, that the Sanutory Cordon, as it %IS originally dent minuted, was established on the Spanish frontier to watch the movements of the Pa 4riuts, though the mean deception was practised by . the French Ministers asserting that it was for no -other purpose than to prevent u pestilential disease from being introduced into France. It has, never ftheless, tended to introduce a politicul pestilence into the kingdom, by suflia-ing rebels against the legiti mate Government of Spain to-enter France, and to raise money to support an insurrection against all the constituted authorities. The French Ministers in their arguments are most absurd and inconsistent. They are fearful of suffering the Constitutional Go vernmcnt to axis., as a dangerous example to France, and yet encouragement is afforded to those who are - in an absolute state of. rebellion 1 We arc anxious .fur mere-adid• reasons for the Duke of Angouleme buckling on his sword, and the Chief of the Maur • hots exhibiting suck hostile demonstrations against Spanish independence. This we consider to be most dangerous and revolting policy—it is considered so throughout France and civilized Europe, and as %veil might the Holy Alliance attempt , to • stop the ebbing and .11 saving of the tide, as endeavour to trammel public opinion, to fetter the, human mind, •or to stop the rapid spread of popular principles So repugnant is at war with Spain in. France, that the chief command under the Duke of Angouleme, who has no military Went whatever, has been oiVered in succession to Marshals M...cdonald and Victor, who bad both declined, nor was it iikely audit would be accepted by any (Alice's of their rank or experience. •Iu the nameof Ideaven, let the Duke of Angouleme have solely the planning and whole management of the war, if the Boorbons are determined on having one, and let the whole of the Ultras, with their illustrious Generalissimo, take upon themselves the invasion of Spain, fur nothing else than human in ..genuity could devise would render the war popular. Papers had been received. in Paris from Madrid to the 20th tilt., but nothing of .interest bud occurred. The people in the Spanish capital anticipat: d, without fear, the result of a war,iu which they have on their aide justice and enthusiasm, and their opponents on theirs, the reprobation of the Universe. The situation of Resident Contmissioner of the Navy at DeptlOrd is to he abolish( d, and Commis sinner Cunningham, who has held that' situation some years, is removed to the superintendence of the dock yard ut Chatham, in the room of Sir JI. :Barlow, who retires from that past with the rank of Rear-Admirul. Adviees from Rio de Janeiro of the 12th of No- Nember state, that on the 12th the Secretary of State sent to the Consuls and Diplomatic agents of the European PowerS, copies of the decree relative to the newilag of Brazil, which being communicated .to the commanders of the Zogfish and French fri gates in the harbour, they on the fiAlowing day paid due honour to the new colours of the Brazilian Em- Tire, by hoisting the Imperial flig, and subunit , it. • A letter li. a ISayonne of the 25th ult. states, that an attempt lied been made on Vittoria by some bands of the Army of the Faith, but which was ren dered ineffective by the approach of Torrijos, who put them to flight, and took SS prisoners, without losing a single soldier. Another party, under Bes aaeres, ate said to have taken possession of Siguenza, fureed•the gartison to reheat to Guadalaxara, and l i proclaimed the absolute King. Large sums of mo ney hem Paris had arrived at Ifun, St. Jean-Pied. de-Port, and Bayonne, for the use of the factious Spaniards.—We cannot repeat too often that the ac counts by way of' Bayonne must be received with peculiar caution. The appointment of the Rev. Reginald Heber, to the Bisimprie of Calcutta, causes a vacancy in that of preachership of Lincoln's-inn. Two gentlemen are already named as candidates to succeed him They are the Rev. Dr. Maltby uud the Rev. J. W. Couniugham. The appointment is by vote, and and there are but YI gentlemen who have the pti vile of vo:ing _~ : a L e L =EIM ~.. VIN 4 g I 9. I OfT; t ;ct I WVA I Alriaiii _A. ICE. The acconnta of the national receipt and expenditure, put Forth periodically be the President of the United• States, ais public documents of a hii;ltly interesting nature,—because they are Mariligiblft,—beeause limy are, and must be authentic,—and because they are calculated to wakelinghabinen ponder, as well on the possibility as on the expediency of adapting to home-lase the financial lessons of that economical Poser. DI the quality of the article bore invariably a regular proportion to the cost, the work* must allow a very flattering aupetiority to the ailininistratioo of the British commonwealth over that of the parsimonious republic of North America but we fear there is in that respect hut a bowie analogy between common mer chandise and Akira of state. The account produced on the present occasion seta out with embraoing the revenue and ex penditure of the y ear 1821,—their proceed* to that of 1822. —next gives the amount and description of the national debt, and eonclu.hs with a detailed ratimaist fur 16113, and a wore general one for the years 1824, 1•62.5. and 1826. The income derived from taxation and sale of howls in the year 1F.21 was Oxtail 14,000,00 dollars, but was increased, by 61 loan of 5,000,000, to upwards of 19,000,01.10, and by the sur plus in the Treasury at the beginning -of the yea; to 'between 20,000,9011*nd 21,000,000. 'The whole current expences of -United Stated for the same rear were about 19,000,000 dollars. During that year the ci•il aslmheistration coat rather wore than 2,600,00 dollars ; the army, navy, and iulerest ton the debt, constituting tbs remainder. In 1822, the toad receipt, WI far as ascertained, and including surplus from foimeryear, was nearly 21,009.000 docs a. Of this expenditure the civil Government, including the expence of Gtrei , n embassies, are. was little more that' 1,500,0u0 dol lars ; being a reduction from the year precolln, V above 600,00 J dollars. or above 25 per regd. The funded debt of the Unite: States may be taken roughly at 90,000,90 i dollars, or nhout one half the iMme3t (sinking fund included ). on the natio:al debt of Enghoid. The Treasnry bills and Alissiasimi stock made all addition 'of 54,00J,000 dollars. The receipts of 1923 are cstionnted nt 23,000,003 dollars, snd the expenses at 13,000,UJ0 dollitra i leaving an excess of iIIeIJIIIC over expenditure of more (hail one third of the revenue, applicable to the liquitlittion of the public debt, This financial statement is, as a whole, of an extremely favourable nature. A Lisbon mail has arrived with papers to the 24th ult. The notes of the Allied Powers on the • ufhtirs of Spain hail been published, and excited some sensation, but not any serious apprehension of war. It is evident from the tone of the journals, • that the hope of recovering Bruail is not abandoned. —The new expedition fur Bahia, consisting of be. tween 2,000 and 3;000, was on board transports in the harbour; mid General de Rego, who by order I of the Government was to go to Bahia, was on his wily to the cepital, where he was expected to arrive in time to sail with the expedition, in the papers deceived by ibis packet, we do not notice any thing 1. to confirm the statement brought by the Matilda, of disafketion existing among the troops un board the transports. Frankfort papers to the 25th ult. mention the arrival of accounts from Athens of the 20th of No vember, stating that•Urehoud l'ucha, with a eon. •sideruble force. had penetrated into Attica, and defeated the Greek troops under -Odysseus, nest Dudlii, 12 leagues from Athens. The Greek com mander is said to have sustained great loss, attwl et. li.teted his own escape with 11 part of his corps with 'great dilliculty. All the rest were either killed Oa taken prisoners. Ulyeseus, in his flight, had die goisi fortune to capture the son of Urchoud Yacht', who offered all the prisoners he hail taken to pro cure his ransom, but this proposal was rejected by the Greeks. Provisions bud been thrown into Co rinth previously to this incursion of the Turks into the Peleponnestis. Advises front Smyrna of the 1:.:1 . 1 of December say, that owing to u very strict system of policy established by the Paella, the Greeks were living there in tolerable security. ny the 'Fourth Report of the . Commissioners of Revenne Inquiry, it appears the Union Duties on the trade between Great Britain and Ireland ure rszommended to be discontinued at u shor,er period than that recently fixed upon by Parliament. Admiral Sir Geo. Eyre is aßeinted Commander in-Chief in South America, in the room of Commo dore Sir Thomas Hardy. The Egeria frig ate is ordered to be paid off at Portsmouth, and lifted again for sea. bra:en sloop of war is fitting at Plymouth for the Brazil station. Letters from Cadiz state that two Russian frigates, of 42 guns. were cruising on the 80th of Decembtr off Teneriffe, and had even cast anchor at Santa Cruz. Under present circumstances the appearance of these vessels excite some alarms, especially when it is recollected that the Russians desired to seize on Port Mahon. flowerer, information has been re ceived that those two frigates had not been seen since the 2d January. The Duke of York is going on well towards re covery from his indisposition, which has been a violent inflammation on the chest, occasioned by continued and increased cold. Mr. Vansittart continues confined by indisposition, which was the cause of his not being present at the Cabine Council. The number of emigrants arrived last year at Quebec, was 10,471, het% 1,912 more than last seasoo. The tonnage of shippng amounts to 145,942, being 43,15 ti tons inure than last yuur. BIRTHS. .

Contrary to expectation, the businesi yet doing inane isarkat is very trifling, the bidders of grain. knowing that th••• 8140••• are without their adequate stock, wi I not give way in and she latter, expecting a seduction will eventually take bold back from purchasing. The uncertain state of the po 'tied world is one'resson of the slackness, and the decision one way must materially affect this market, many speculators, in event of war. {acing inclined to make large purchaaes of grain for the purpose of storeing it, and therefore little will ht done, in all probability. . until the opening of Parlituuent shall have thrown some light .ui.on the impending events.
