THE NATIONAL REGISTER. LONDON: SUND.iY,'SEPTEMBER 6, 1818. FLUCTUATIONS still continue in the Funds. Con sols suddenly rose , on Friday afternoon from 744 to 75g. Yesterday they were done at 76; since then they have rather declined. The rapid rise on Friday was ascribed •to extensive houses coming to buy largely, who had for a .series of months been most immense sellers.— There were no political rumours afloat. Accounts of various kinds, and many of them con tradictory, have been received from Manchester And its vizinity. It does net appear that any fresh sets of vio lence have been -attempted by the refractory spinners, though they still continue to assemble in menacing bullet According to one letter, a meeting was. to be held on Friday of the owners of the principal cotton mills, when certain propositions would be submitted to the workmen. We have received the Paris Papers of Tuesday sma• l Wednesday, from which the following are extracts : Pants, Ssrr. 2.—" The Duke of Gloucester was at Toulouse on the day of the festival of his Majesty. This Prince was present at the civil and religious ceremony .which took place on the occasion, and afterwards dined, with Lieut. General Partouneanx, Commandant of the Division, who had also invited the principal adminis.. •trative and military authorities. After dinner, the' Duke dmnirthe healths of the King of France and his august family. General Partouneaux drank the healths of his Majesty the King of England and 'his august firefly - , particularly that of his Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester. The Prince then drank, for the third toast The eternal alliance of France and E ngland.' French Funds, August 31.—Five per Cents Wf.- - Bsnk Stock, 1643 f. September I.—Five per Cent. '7lf. 50c.—Bank Stock, 1626 f. 25c. FTv tosoriao, A Tyn. 7.9.—" The Duke of Wellieg ttr.: 1! 'F. hA .4..5.' an General Earon Friroont, are THE NATIONAL REGISTEIt. expected to-morrow evening at Haguenan. T ye l'refect of our Department has repaired dither to re ceive them." e have received a Ilautburgh Mail, bringing Pa pers to the 28th ult. ; but they du not contain a single article of importance, or interesting intelligence. An ordinance Ilan been signed by the Bing of France for levying a body of 80,000 men from the classes of 1816 and 1817. - Of this number 40,000 are to be at the disposal of the Minister at War, who will employ them in replacing the soldiers whose term of service shall have expired on the 31st of next December, and in completing the Ist battalions of the departmental legions. The number of legions is 86. The establish ment of a French battalion consists of aboat 600 rank and file; hence it may be concluded, on a reference to the above levy, that the first battalions of the legions ' must be weak indeed, when they have room for so large a reinforcement. The Duke of Wellington left Paris on Friday last for Colmar. M. Gent; who bears the title of Aulic Counsellor of Austria, proceeds, say the journals, to Aix-la-Chapelle. It is evident, indeed, from the ministers and negotiators who are destined for thatimportant scene, that the Continental Powers, at least, have thought it necessary to resort. to their ablest statesmen. Letter* from Colombo, dated March SO, have been received, which make no nsention of the melancholy circumstance of the surrounding rf General Brownrigg, in a mud fort. The event was said to have happened in the middle of that month, and if it had really taken place, it must of course have been known at Columbo on the 90th. On the contrary, these letters state that the General was strenuously following up measures to subdue the rebellious-enemies, and Irons his confidence in the troops under his command, had every hope of being soon able to subdue thew. Nothing could ex• ceed the ardour, fortitude, and perseverance of the officers and troops, who seemed to be animated with the conviction that their efforts would shortly be crown ed with success. It is added, that there are also private letters of the same date from Lady Brownrigg, who is at Columbo, and who does not advert to the rumour in question, but expresses hopes that the service will soon be over. A Mail from Hamburgh has brought us Papers to the 26th ult. The Emperor Alexander is expected at Berlin about the middle of 'this month, on his way' to Aix-la-Chapelle. A new topographical division of the Russian Empinr is said to be in contemplation, and Volhynia and Podolia are to retain the name of the kingdom of Poland. The Emperor Alexander has given very liberal encouragement to an Eaglish Quaker, who hus gone to St. Petersburgh on a project of draining the bogs in the environs of that capital. Madame Krudener is suffered, without any interruption from the Russian Police, 'to disseminate her finatieul doctrines among the boors of Livunia. Theteremoey of the christening of the'yonng Printe, l eon of the Prince of Orange, took place the .25th nit., at the Hague, with grout solemnity. He received the name of William Alexander Frederick Constantine:. Nicholas Michael. The Flanders mail communicates two contradictory statements respecting Prince Blucher, one of which, if unfortunately it should 'be confirmed, will be a subject of sincere regret to the admirers of energy, valour, and patriotism, in every part of the world. A Vienna paragraph of the 20th ult. assures us, that the Prince was beginning to mend at Carlsbad ; while there is a letter from Aix-la-Chapelle of the '2Bth, which an- . nounces the death of that gallant soldier. The Aix-la- Chapelle paper of the 10th says nothing in corrobora tion of this report, which we therefore •hope will prove to have:been unfounded. The King of France has rcr.t the Omer of the Lily, with the sum of 1200 francs, to the Master of the Da nish vessel which conveyed him to Rigi in 1804.. The 'Semiramis frigate arrived on Wednesday at Portsmouth, with the corpse of her lute Captain, the gallant Sir James Yeo, on board. The Semiramis comes from the coast of Africa, her term of service on that station having expired. Sir James Yeo was not in a good state of health when he went out, and the most serious apprehimaions for his life, now unfortunately •reslised, •haver been for some time entertained by his friends and relatives. On his death, the first Lieut. I cHarrison 1, assumed the command. In Sir James Yeo, the country has lost an officer of great talent, courage, and activity, and a worthy man. Sir J. Yeo was the first person who brought intelligence to this country of the rising of the Spaniards against their Gallic invaders, and the consequent surrender of a part of the French army-- , an event that gave a new impulse to the people of Spain in all quarters, and at length, by the assist ance of the British troops and their Allies, finally drove their oppressive intindus out ef the kingdom . . Sir James was then a Lieutenant in the'Navv. The pedestal of the statue of Henry IV. at Ftris, is to be 'bronzed. 'lt will present two bas reliefs, the one representing Henry entering Paris, the other, Henry allowing tn . pass late the town whilst he besieged it. SEPT. 6 A Paris paper says—" His Royal Highness the Duke of Glocester,. travelling under the title of the Earl of Connaught. arrived at Thoulouse on the 22d of August, and on the following day received the visits of the civil and military authorities. He drove out ac companied by Lieut. Gen. Count' de Partoneaur, corn mending the' tOth military division, and visited the Polygon, where he admired the manoeuvres of the artil lery. He next visited the capitol, which he examined with attention; remarking particularly the statue of Henry IV. and the busts of those illustrious men who adorn the ball. The same day his Royal Highness dined with the Baron de St. Chastens, Prefect of the Department:' On Wednesday his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex arrived in this University, accompanied by his Secretary, H. F. Stephenson, Esq. of Trinity Hall, and after a short stay at the Sun Hotel, proceeded to Tri. nity College, and' after reviewing that celebrated and magnificent foundation, honoured the Rev. G. Ai Browne, his Royal Highness's Chaplain, with his com pany to dinner, at which a select party were invited: On Thursday the Mayor and Corporation attended his Royal Highness in full'procession at the Sun Hotel, and presented him with the freedom ofehe corporation, which his Royal Highness graciously received. His Royal Highness, in the course of the morning, visited several of the Colleges and 'public buildings in the Uni versity, and in the afternoon dined with the New Lodge of Freemasons, at the Red Lion inn.. Yesterday morning the degree of D.C.L. was conferred upon his Royal Highness in the Senate house, and in the after noon he dined in the hall of Trinity College. His Royal Highness is expected to leave this morning for Flolkham, the. met of Mr. Coke.--tiatfield's Ctrs. bridge Gazette, Frida9. On Thursday morning. Lord and Lady Castlereagh and suite embarked at Dover for Calais, on board the Chichester packet, Captain Rutter. His Lordship was saluted by the Heights battery on his going on board the packet. The son of Gustavus Ado/phus, Es-King of Sweden,. has taken the name of Count of Itterburg. The act passed in the last session of Parliament, relative to the erection of churches in those parishes where a grelt increase of population should render it necessary, i; beginning to be put into execution iti the county of Exeter. The Lord Bishop of Exeter and Lord Rolle, visited Exmouth last week, accompanied by an architest from Bath, who has traced the outlines and dimensions of a new church, to be erected on a piece of ground (behind the Beacon-hill) the property if Lord Ralle, who has made a present of it to the parish for tlilliumrpose. It is estimated that the build kg of the church will cost 7,0001. of which 4,0001. will be advanced by Government, and the remaining 3,0001. by Lord Rolle, who will receive ample indem nification by letting a certain number of the pews. The Prince falleyrand has arrived at Bareges, in order to use the waters for the benefit of his health.— His Highness gave a splendid fete on the festival of St. Louis, at which the Duchess of Dino presided. By a letter from the Hague, we learn the death of she Dutch General Ddendels, who was not unknown during the period of the Revolution. This Officer ex pired suddenly on the coast of Guinea, where he was Governor of the Dutch settlements. General Baron Benningsen has -recently visited Vienna, where he vvat well received by.all the Imperial family, particularly by the Emperor. Tire Swedish Government continues to pay unto mittiag attention to the re-establishment of its naval _force A considerable improvement has taken place in the foreign exchanges in favour of this country ; the rise has been slow and gradual, but regularly progressive ; and maybe estimated, in the course of the last three • months, at from 24 to 3 per cent. The Master.shipwrikht of Chatham Dock-yard his recently been ordered to Plymouth and Portsmouth, to survey the state of the ships at those ports ; the Master shipwright-of Woolwich-yard was also ordered at the same time on the like service. The Master-shipwrights from the above yarda are to make their survey of the ships at Chatham and at Sheerness,-so that the greatest care is to be taken on the several inspections of ali the shipanow in ordinary, in order to ascertain the extent of the dry-rot, and to find, if possible, the best way to prevent it. . _ _ The Horncastle, Wallace, master, arrived at 13:trrow stonness 28th Aug. She left the Alexander, and Isa bella discovery ships under Captain Ross, on- the 18th July, in lat. 74. 6. persevering to the northward, but from the great quantity of ice, there was little proba bility of their success this year. This, which is the Littst account, seems to-warrant the suppo tion of those who corisider the further . . progress of the ,xpedition as im probable.
