51;oatcript- LONDON, MONDAY, JANUARY 14. Three o'clock,p.m. The Koniiemr of Thursday announces, that in consequence of the resignation of the Duke Dccazes, as Ambassador to England. his Majesty, by a Royal Ordonnance of the yth instant, has named Viscount Chateaubriand, his successor to the Embassy of the Court of London. The Keeper of the Seals has suc cessfully used his influence to induce the King to remit the remainder of the imprisonment to which M. Lacretelle was condemned, as the author of a pamphlet, entitled, " The Clippings of the Censor ship." Among the motives which occasioned his Nlajesty to extend this grace, are the advanced age ' cf A!. Lacretelle and his rank in the Academic Fraw caiYe, of which he is at present the Chancellor.— I.et ters received in Town on Saturday from Vienna, consider war between the Turks and Russians ine vitale, and assert, and had it not been for the rainy stasen the Russian Eagle would now float on the walls of the Seraglio. The negociations at Tappan, between the two Emperors, had in view, it is asitl, the occupation of Turkey in Elm pe by the Russians, in return for the assistance afforded the Emperor Francis, by the Emperor Alexander, and on the in v..sion of Naples by the Austrians, and it is pro bable that both England and France will have to Lanent the cold and neutral policy which they ti.lopted on that memorable occasion. The Sultan, it is observed, is placed in a most perplexingdilemma. If he accedes to the demands of Russia, the Janis saries will instantly rebel, destroy the Seraglio, and involve him and his family in destruction ; and if he resists the demands, the Turkish territory will be in vaded by a numerous Russian army, and away goes, at once, the balance of Europe, and all the grand schemes of the Holy Alliance.

Since this day week we have had several arrivals of Wheat from the coasts of Essex, Kent, and suablk, as well as from the Scotch coast, and the supply this morning was in consequence pretty considerable. There was a good demand for the finest samples, at an advance of full ts. Per qr. upon the prices of last Monday, but the inferior descriptions were nearly unsaleable, a great quantity of which remains on hand. The trade in Barley was brisk, and tine samples went of freely at last week's prices. We were not very largely supplied with Oats, and there being a ready sale, a trifling advance was obtained. In Beans, Leas. there is no alteration, but the demand tOr each article was pretty brisk. CL,41..EN1 PARA.>, OF 0;1, lilt. ‘b l'er W inehoder Measure of Eigist tjuslsel,. 1110 /111 J• V. It SON E+l).
