LONDON, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 13. .....m..- The attention of Europe is intensely fixed on the proceedings of Congress, and the friends of liberty are unanimous in unfavourable anticipations —the affairs of Spain are, it is said, to claim the distinguished attention of the great Despots, and it is believed that they will restive to force upon the Spanish people an absolute Government in lieu of their Constitutional form—if such be their determi nation, they will doubtless attempt to enforce those resolutions by their armies—if they tlo, we hope the Spaniards will uphold the credit of their ancestors, and teach those meddling, brutal tyrants what it is to interfere with a people in whose breast the pure flame of liberty is glowing—we wish that each army may be commanded by its Sovereign in person, and that every man may find a grave in the country to which they would dare to dictate—it may be said that " the soldiers are not to blame"—that " they must do as they are ordered"—to which we would reply, that they had better turn their bayonets against the breasts of their employers than stiffer themselves to be the instruments of tyranny and vil lany. If .he tei.ie.ity these crowned Ruffians should overcome their cowardice, and they should pretend to dioate to England how much or how little of power her King should be allowed, they would find too late that spirit which would over whelm them, and their armies would either be im molated en masse, or return in fragments defeated and disgraced. The Spanish nation will have an opportunity of immortalizing itself, and we ardently hope it will make the most of it. STOCK EXCHANGE, YESI ERDAY ONE OTLOCK.-. Very little business doing here this morning. The Bank basadvanced toe Disseateis' money to Corerninent, and have judged it best to apply a portion of the Sinking Fund to pay them 011 . in eight instalments, after which the Sinking Fund will resume its operations in full—and we are assured the purchases will be egos' to foar millions. Consols are 1,1, and for the Nu •ember account 84—About eleven o'clock the new Pernvisn Loao appeared in the Foreign market. For aim:10110f time we have nut witnessed so much confusion—numerous were the bidders—followed up at least by a crowd of two hundred per sons, dancing shout from one part of the 'Chnnge to the other, bellowing out as if a menagerie of Bulls asd Bears were let loose on the public. The preminui it bears up to to this hour is eight per cent., and eagerly sought after. A great deal has been dune in the new Spanish Winds, which base lowered this 'mooing. General Berton was executed at Poictiers, on the sth instant- , -the firmness and calmness which he displayed during. his imprisonment continued to the last moment of his existence, and his death excited the general sympathy of the spectators. Dr. Calfe c immitted suicide some hours betitre the time ap pointed for his execution, by wounding himself with a deep instrument in the groin, and cutting throng-11 the crural artery, in the presence of two gendarmes, by whom he was guarded. Sange and have been sent to Thotturs strongly guarded, where they are to suffer death. His Majesty the Emperor of Russia has given cr-ders to publish at Warsaw the Pupal Bull of the 24th of June this year against the Carbunari.

TAXATION av STEAM.—A steam-engine is about to be erected at the Stamp-office, for the purpose of working off stamps with greater ease and r a pidity. A letter from Pisa says, that Lord Byron has gone to Genoa, for the purpose of embarking tor the Unita States of America. ~w r•T •••• '~~ to • NATIONAL THE The East Indiamen will ia future occasionally touch at Plymouth. Some gentlemen in the service of the East India Company have been inspecting the store-houses at Turn-chapel, Catwater, prepa ratory to the establishment of a depot there for stores, de.: for the use of the Company's chips which may be put intu the harbour. Kenueriox OP INTEREST.—..T.OO banks in Pres ton hes given notice, that the highest rate of inte rest they will in future allow, will be 4 per cent., and that they shall discount bills 'of exchange after the same rate. Peipetches have been received from the Di le of Weilin;oon, who arrived ut Vienna on the 30th ult. His health was rather improved by the journey, though he had been bled since his arrival. Letters dated the 15th of August, were received front Port-au-Prince. The deputies to the Legisla tive Assembly tbr the Spanish part of the island, lately Lidded to the dominions of President Boyer, had all been elected. lc is stated us a curious fact, that these deputies, thuugh so reeent:y the -suijects of a Government sufficiently despotic, entertained principles so liberal, or rather so demucratiejl, that they meditated the introduction uf some law for mo difying the power of the President. Ge.i. Romaine who had been detained as State prisoner at Leogatie on parole, it is said has been shut by secret orders from the Government. It was supposed lie had been detected in carrying on secret correspondence with the north, with a view to revolutionize that quarter. The Second Report of the Select Committee of the House of Commons upon our Foreign Trade hus been printed. The Committee have selected, as the first objects of their investigation, the Light Dues, "lrinity Dues, Ballastage, Surplus Pilotage, and the Ramsgate and Dover Harbour Dues, which appear to be burdens pressing heavily upon the navigation 'and coinineree of the country. Mr. Lushington and suite embarked at Obee the `2lst ult. on board his Majesty's revenue crni* Sseefl, Captain H. Dundits Beatson, for the purpose of making a survey on the Custom-houses in the north of Scotlund. We understand that a contract for a loan to the new Government of Peru has just been concluded by a London mercantile house with the deputies ; recently arrived from Lima:' It was offered in the first instance to the contractors of the Columbian lean, and the negotiation was nearly terminated' when, from some ewe yet unknown, the ratifica tion was withheld, and a new treaty entered into by the house which has taken the contract. The amount of the loan, and the terms on which it has been taken, have Hot hitherto transpired : it is un derstood, however, that they are high, considerings that the presence of a very powerful Spaiiis:i artily in Peru slid forms a serious obstacle to t: , e estab lishment of its independence, mad isinsequentiy us the existence of the present Government. Under the first treaty, the price wits to have been 75 toe a stock bearing 5 per cent. interest, but it is supposed the terms of the present contract much exceed that price. No portion ut the loan has yet been brought into eircelation. MILFORD, OCT. 8 —lt has blown a very heavy gale since Sunday lust. Early on Monday morning a brig was discovered by the people at St. Ami's lighthouse, at the entrance of this harbour, in dis tress, drifting to leeward, unmanageable; and be tween 11 and 12 o'clock she came tni shore with a tremendous crash, midway between the lighthouse and West Dale. Six pour fellows, being the mas ter and crew, were seen en deck, and heard crying bitterly for help, but none could be afforded them, and by ,the first great wave they were immersed in the deep, and iu instant sunk to rise no more.— About 30 casks of butter have been picked up ; the letters have Britain—painted thereon ; the cite casks of butter picked up are branded—H.

The greater part of ;he church has not suffered at all ; and though the pyramid is de. destroyed, which it will require a long time to it.bitikl, there is no other injury which may nut be speedily repaired.
