The following are extracts :•••••• PARIS, SEPT. I9.—There is a report that the ex istence of secret societies under different denomina tions, particularly that of the society ofregeneration, in su:ne of the cantons of Switzerland, has attracted the attention of foreign powers. It is added, that siruilar associations are also organised on the (run-' tiers of Milan. A secretary of the Foreign-office set out yesterday for Vienna, with despatcries• fur the Viscpmte de Montmorency. Some JoUtnals have been affected for some days with a warlike temperament ; they make regiments snatch, provision fortresses, and trace camps, only apparently to destroy them all in a few days. The troops which passed through Lyons, and which have caused so many conjectures, arc only battalions which were separated from their corps, and which, in consequence of the new organization, are going to join them. These battalions are going towards the east, and not towards the south, as is pretended. The Journal de Toulouse of the 13th announces, that the chiefs of the factious in the provinces of Biscay, would have about 1,200 men under their orders, have formed at Guipuscoa a provisional junta, after the example of that of Navarre ; they are nut, however,masters of any town of importance. According to later news rereived from Bayonne, this paper announces that Quesada had been forced to raise the siege of Jacca. Three thousand men have Leen disembarked at Tarragona, and are preparing to set out to reinforce the constitutional troops; a second reinforcement of equal number is epected. General Mina, who is in that town, waits for their arrival. to commence his operations. We learn from Rouen of the 17th, that up to that time the arch of the tower was still standing, but the calcination is so great that it must be destroyed if it do nut foil of itself. The fire it contained is nearly extinguished. During the whole of the 16th, and in the following night, many spots of fire were discovered in the roof, whien the engines have es: in,tzuished. BI:UBSELS, SEPT. 19 —Ytsterday evening a British cabinet messenger passed through this city ; he came from London, ai.d was going in all haste to Vienna, to carry thither the appointment of Mr. Canning to the office of Secretary for Foreign Affairs in the room of the late Marquis of London tierry. 'ate (Duke of Wellington wished for this nomination to be made befbre he set out for Vienna. The committee appointed by his Majesty last Blareli, to consider of measures for the relief of agri culture, and of which Baron Roell is President, has terminated its labours, and has just presented its report to the King. _ We learn that his Excellency the Minister of State, M. Oriel, has just been appointed by the King President of • the Ano.tymous Society, which is to meet at Brussels, for every thing r2lative to agri culture, commace, and manufactures, according to the regulations of the royal decree on that subject. A ta-La-C H A PELL SEPT. 12.—We have received a letter from the southern frontiers of Russia, which says, that the claims brought forward by the Otto man cabinet to the fOrtresses in Asia, which are in the power of Russia, have greatly excited the atten tion of the cabinet of St. Petersburgh. It should poem that Gen. Jermaloff, who commands in Geor gia, has received orders from the War Minister to detach some troops, to reinforce the garrisons of the Russian fortresses in Circassia. It is added, that measures of precaution will also be adopted for the safety of the fortresses situated between the Euxine sod the Caspian, as well as of those in Russian Mol davia. NenEstacao, Sk.PT 1 I.—We learn from Vienna that the Aulic Council has just sent to the War De partnient aq order to raise all the regiments of in fantry in the Austrian army to their full comple ment. This measure must be carried into effect about the end of September, or at the beginning of October at the farthest. It is observed that the corps formed by the Landwehr are exempt from this ue_stsure. They are not to be embodied this year, as has bmg been usual in Austria.

NI , larnAs_le , .........se—a THE NATION REGISTER FIRE AT AMSTERDAM. AMSTERDAM, SEPT. 18 —To-day, at noon, one of the most dreadful fires broke out here that has happened in this city for many years. The new Lutheran church on the north-cast side of the Singel, is burnt down, together with some of the adjacent buildings. The church was observed to be on fire about half past one, and a little after two it was all in flames. The heat was so great, that all efforts to save the nearest houses were necessarily renounced. It was felt at the distance of two streets on the Torensluis, and opposite the church it was ' insupportable, notwithstanding the breadth of the ' Singel. The sight of the lofty cupola in flames was dreadful but sublime. The copper which covered it, and which flew in large sheets through the air, coloured the flames with varying tints of blue and green, which were speedily mingled with the brighter flames of the ardent spirit, and the dark yellow smoke of the oil with which the adjacent warehouses were filled. It seems certain (at least this is the general report) that the fire commenced in the church itself, and not in one of the neigh bouring warehouses; but with respect to the real cause of the misfortune, we have little more than conjectures. On account of the violence of the fire and the falling sparks, the vessels nearest the Singel, over which a very strong east wind fortunately drove the thick smoke, had to remove to another place ; it does not appear that any of them have received much damage. The fine church thus de stroyed, and of which little will remain but the wall round it, which is ten feet thick, was erected in the year 1678, 1681, chiefly by voluntary do- nations: The fine dome was built on the model of that of St. Peter's at Home, and as well as a semicircular building adjoining, covered with copper, which were brought from Sweden duty free, by permission of King Charles XI. On the platform of the ad. joining back building there was a large cistern of rain water, to be used in case of fire. We du nat know whether it has been of any service on this occasion. Four of the adjoining dwelling-houses and maga zines are burnt, and a fifth in flames. SEPT. 19 —The fire yesterday seems to have broken out in the left where the plumbers had been at work, and so rapidly spread that the church was all in flames in half an hour, and soon commu nicated to the neighbouring houses and warehouses, some of which being full of spirits of wine, and other inflammable substances, added to the fury of the conflagration. The greatest praise is due to the firemen for their extraordinary exertions, and we are happpy in not having heard of one accident of great consequence, only that one of the firemen re ceived some severe bruises on the neck and hands, another on the hands only. The whole inside of the church is destroyed, the walls only remaining. Happily the books and papers were saved, as well as some valuable articles from the Consistorial Chamber. Six dwelling houses and nine warehouses are en tirely or nearly destroyed; some others are damaged, not to any extent. The visiters at Harrowgate, which is now unu sually full of company, experienced an unpleasant disappointment on Sunday week. The Reverend Richard Hale, Vicar of Harewood, with his cha racteristic benevolence, had undertaken to preach a charity sermon on behalf of the Sunday school at tached to the established church at Patina!, and as the parish church, which is at the distance of from two to three miles, is so remote, it was determined that he should preach in the large room, at Low Harrowgate, called the promenade room. The place was accordingly fitted up for the purpose, and at the appointed hour a large and very genteel con gregation had assembled; bat just at the moment when the worthy vicar had descended from his chaise, a messenger from the Lord Bishop of Chester, now at the Granby, informed him, th:►t as the place in which he was about to preach was unlicensed, if he proceeded with the service he wourl do it at his peril. To this information Mr. Hale replied, that he had the permission of the Archbishop to preach in this unlicensed room, but that he would wait upon his Lordship at the Granby, which he did without delay, leaving the congregation to await the result of the interview. With what took place upon that occasion, of course we are not informed, except from report, on which, in such a case, we do not choose to rely : but the result was, that the con gregation %%as obliged to disperse without any ser vice, and the exhausted funds of the Sunday school must be replenished in some more orthodox way. One of his Majesty's ships is about to be partially calked with wool, instead of oakum, by way of experiment. Another is to be fitted with an iron furLinast and bowsprit.

The supply of Wheat at market this day is considerable, but there is no material alteration in price, bales being brisk at our last quotations. 'rile quantity of Oats in the market continues very small, and its consequence this article of grain is from Is. to 4s. per qr. dearer, and at that advance sales are brisk. The sup ply of Batley being larger than for the last two or three market days, both New and Old have suffered a reduction of from Is. to 25., and sales are far from being brisk at that reduction. There is no alteration worth noticing in Beans and P:as s and all other grain remains as we last quoted. CURRENT PRICES OF GR Per Windham - Meabare MONDAY.
