ili 3 F 4tn of.ltdcript• ClacUMctstoY.—llnlidat at the Exchequer, Bank, South Sea, and East India Hawes. LONDON, MONDAY, JANUARY 1. Three o'Clock, p.m. By the Dutch Mail we have received a Berlin Gazelle. It explicitly states, that the Con tress at Troppau never thought of negotiating on any terms with the actuated Government of Naples, nor of bringing the Constitution adopted there, " more or less near to monarchical principles," Congress it is observed, e, old not recognize the legality of an insurrection, " the instigators of which were a poli tic l sect, anti whose instrument was the army."— It is also laid down as a maxim in the doctrine of the Holy Alliance, that " the Monarchical principle re jects every institution which is not determined upon trod accomplished by the Monarch himself of his own free will." Every thing, therethre, is quite contrary •to this principle which infringes in the least on arbitrary power ; and this grand and ruling maxim of the ailiance, is avowed to be nothing more nor less than that the people of Europe must be governed without a murmur by despots. This doctrine is as strange us it is alarminp ; it preaches up non-resist ance to tyranny, and throws, a shield over despotism to render it invulnerable against any attack. But it is not enough for the Holy Poten tates to lay down this maxim, tbr though the King himself should consent, the Monarchical league will not recognize any form of government which they themselves dislike. It is not difficult to explain why the ling of Naples has been summoned to Laybach to meet the Allied Sovereigns. There he will ap• pear as an automaton, and will probably be called upon by his Royal Brethren to introduce a new constitution into his kingdom, whether it is approved by his subjects or not. The Lords of the Treasury have been pleased to issue their warrants for bonding wine, brimstone, cork, hemp undressed, iron in bars, kelp, mahogany, pitch, rosin, staves, tallow, tar, timber, toso of tur pentine, oil of turpentine, wood, zaffra and corball, at the port of..s . horeham, which will be a very great aecommodation to the trade. We understand Government has paid 6001. being the half year's resit due by the Queen for Brandeis burgh H ouse; and that Lady Ann Hamilton has been compensated from the sense quarter for the use of her Ladyship's house in 1'0MB:1n-street, by her Majesty. in the course of the last summer. A report has gone abroad, that some difference had arisen between her Majesty the Queen, and Dr. Parr. We have authority to state explicitly and peremptorily, that Dr. Parr's early conviction of her Majesty's entire innocence, his respect far her ge nerous and benevolent disposition, his attachment to her righteous, ettwe, his inclgnation against her shameless and merciless persecutors, and his admira tion of her invincible magnanimity, have been increased by the occurrences of almost every passing day. Saturday last a most nuiuerrus meetir .lok place of the Freeholders of Gloucestershire, t vote, an Address to his Nlajesty to dismiss his present Minis ter:. It was heid under peculiar circumstances; and for numbers, consequence, and respectabiiity, has never been surpassed on any similar mcasion.— The vote of the tiny must be considered us the de cided vote of the county, us men of the first rank in Gloucestershire attended the meeting, and thou • sands who were present were nut actuated by any party feeling whatever, but gave their approbation to the retAutions which were proposed, us they con ccivel them called for by the present alarming state of public attirs. A letter from an oflicer of his Majesty's ship Vgo, at at. Helena, dated Nov. 7, 1820, says— •' Since our Ai - rival Mit.

Leland sends us the report that she is labouring under war rents, and taxes, with fended suit and service, and selling her produce at the lowest polite priers;. Another expedition for further discoveries in the arctic circle is filially determined on, tonl is to con sist of two vessels, as before. The Hecht will be taken into dock immediately at Depttbrd, to be examined and repaired ; and the Fury 'moth-vessel substituted for the Griper. Captain Parry will be entrusted with the command. As yet no precise ;mint for exploring is named, and it is considered as nut likely to be until the arrival of some inflo-ma tion from Lieutenant Franklyn, now emi,loyed in the land expedition from 1-lutl!on's Bay to Copper mine River. Messrs. Palmer, Mar, and Denley. of the Heck; and Messrs Skene and Reid, of the Griper, who served in the expedition to the •Polar Seas, have been promoted to the rank of Lieutehants.— Mr. Fisher, and Mr. Beverley, the assistant sur gcons in the expedition, have been promoted to the rank of Surgeons. The natural curiosities from the Polar Seas have been deposited in the British -Mu seum, and are arranging for the inapectio❑ of the public. Several entire heads of the musk ox, sea horse, and sea.unicorn, with a horn projecting nearly live feet, have been sent to the Royal College of Surgeons.

A few years ago, a gentleman handing a laly into her carriage in the Strand, suddenly had his watch stolen, and could not conceive in what manner. .N gentleman oticing his surprise, uske.d him " what wits the mutter?"--to which he answered, "he had lost his watch, worth thirty guineas."—The other then told him, be would in form him how he could get it returned, and said— " write a letter, and direct it to M'Coull, who then lived in one of the Inns of Court, and desire him forthwith to return your watch, as a gentleman saw him take it." He took the advice, and the next morning the svateli was returned. Thursday lust a fellow called at Mr Thorne's, ornamental painter, Lambeth Butts, and after men tioning the names of several of NI r.Tharne's intim .te friends, he told him he lied a sister in Gloucester Place. who wished to have some gilding done and pictures cleaned. Mr. T proceeded to accompany him accordingly, but when ti.ey came near West minster Bridge, the stranger said, he wanted to go to Pedlers Acre to order some coals, desiring Mr. T. to walk on slowly and be would soon overtake him Mr. 'l'. went on to Pimlico, but there was no person there as described, and on tanning home, he limnd the stranger had returned to his house at Lambeth in his absence, anti told Mrs. Thorne that he was sent hack fur three pictures, the subject of which 11/ described, and succeeded in getting them, and has not been since discovered.

Padua, ISO, T 110:,.. MOORE. A melancholy accident occurred at Kirkcudbright, on Friday se'nnight. James Carter, a sailor, be. longing to that town, having been drinking with ona of his companions at Castlesods, on the opposite side of the river Dee, became considerably intoxicated, and when he came to the side of the river, for the purpose of passing over to Kirkcudbright, finding the ferry-boat had given over plying for the night, he resolved to swim through and bring a boat of carry over his companion, and instantly stripped and plunged into the river; but it appears he had never been able to reach the other side, as he had never since been seen. A diligent search has been made kir his hotly, but without effect. Carter was an excellent swimmer, by which he saved himself on two occasions, when shipwrecked, when all on board perished but himself. He has left a widow with a ' young child to lament his untimely fate. Detnestie Economy.— To render water particularly wholesome and palatable, those who wish to drink it in perfection, should, after having boiled and filtrated it, cause it to he put into a common barrel churn, where it may be agitated to any degree that may be wished for, and then bottled with a couple of dried resins in each battle. This will give it a sufficient quantity of fixed air, and becomes truly delicious.
