FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. PARIS, MAY I.—The Austrian Observer states the departure of M. de Tutischeef fur St. Peters burgh, and assures us that the object of his mission fulfilled. If the Journalist had frankly explainedi the object of this mission, we should have known what he meant, but he maintains upon this !vim a complete diplomatic reserve. Thus it reduces us to conjectures. According to the known wishes so often expressed by the Austrian Observer fit the maintenance of peace between Russia and the Porte it may be presumed that it would not cover with a pysterions veil what was conformable to its desires. The sharpness of its language and the movements of humour which escapes its habitual gravity, are symptoms nut very satisfactory as to the duration of peace. The silence of the Court of Vienna re specting the issue of the negotiations is also very expressive. An explanation would suffice to arrest the fall of the public effects in that country, if' at least that explanation would assign sufficient motives for believing in a good understanding between the Cabinet of St. Petersburgh and the Divan. If such an explanation does not take place, it is, doubtless, because it would be contrary to the system of im mobility, which the Holy Alliance wishes to pre vail. It is known. on the other hand, that NI. de Iletternich has received very important dispatches from Constantinople, the contents of which have not transpired. it is, therefore, probable, that the Court of Vienna will soon break the silence which it has hitherto maintained, and that Europe, atten tive to passing events, will be soon infbrmed of the result so impatiently expected. The commercial letters are all ter war, and it is known how much commerce on these occasions, is clear-sighted.—The finesses of diplomacy, or the sinnosities of policy, rarely deceive experienced men whose intelligence is called into action by great interests. It appears, therefore, very nearly decided, that all the efforts of the Cabinet of Vienna for the maintenance of peace between Russia and Turkey have failed, through the obstinacy of the Divan, and the fanaticism of the Turks. BANtS OF THE DANUBE, APRIL 20.—Letters from Agram state, that at the beginning of March the Pacha of Belgrade having received orders from Constantinople to disarm the Servians, wrote to Prince Milosch and to the twelve principal Servian Chiefs to proceed to Belgrade. The latter refused, fearing an ambuscade. Milosch declared to the Pacha that the state of affairs did not permit bim to proceed to Belgrade, but to tranquillise the Porte he would send a new act of submission signed by all the Servian Chiefs. This act contains a formal engagement in the name of the nation, to remain faithful and devoted to the Porte, but demanding that the rights granted to the nation should be guaranteed, including that of bearing arms. The Pacha sent this act and de claration of Milosch to Constantinople, but he re ceived orders to insist on the disarmament. The Servian Chiefs then assembled at Novibazar, and resolved to refuse and oppose the disarmament, if necessary, by fbrce. Such is the state of affairs in Servia, where important events may shortly be ex pected. Nu REIMER°, APRIL 24.—The last accounts from Epirus confirm the defection of the Albanians, and the disagreeable position in which Chourscbid Pacha is placed by this event. He has bad to maintain several partial combats with the Albanians and the Souliotes, in which he sustained great loss, and he is now menaced with a greater danger, several Helle nist corps having come from the Morea to join the Albanians, in order to co-operate for the destruction of the Turks. VIENNA, APRIL lg.—The Counsellor of State Tatischeff had not his audience of leave of the Emperor until this afternoon. He sets out to morrow for Petersburg!). His mission appears there fore to be finished, and it is generally asserted in public, that all the differences with the Porte will be amicably adjusted. M. de Tatischeft did nut think fit to wait for the courier from Count Lutzow. It. appears that the news already in his possession suf. fieed to determine his departute, which had been so often announced. The Turks continue to make defensive preparations in Moldavia and Walachia.— Six hundred waggons filled with ammunition arrived id the neighbourhood of Silistra on the sth of April. An article from Stutgard, dated April 22, says— " All the talk here is respecting a criminal sentence, pronounced against Protessor List. It is known that M. List was scarcely appointed a deputy, when he became eager to signalize himself by his opposition to the ministry. Imitating the English Parliamen tary tactics, i.e proposed an inquiry into the state of ti:e nation, s. Lich e as rejected by a majority of the Chamber. Failing in this attempt, he drew up a retitien in the name of his constituents, in which he N•clicmcn tiy censured the ministers and their agents. The a lwiuiatration felt itself offended, and c used a criminal pre:Reding to be commenced against M. List, during which he was suspended from his func- wiz NATIONAL REGISTIR tions as a deputy. Since that period the inquiry has been pending before the Tribunal of First In stance, and it was generally believed, that if the accused was not acquitted, his punishment would be at most very slight No one, even his enemies, expected a sentence like that which has been pro nounced upon him ; for the Criminal Court of Es lingen has condemned him to ten months of hard labour. This condemnation has excited general astonishment, because the punishment carries in famy with it, and not only causes the person to lose his place as a deputy, but deprives him of the right of filling any public function whatever. THE NEW RUSSIAN TARIFF. weimiND The sacrifices made in a hundred ways by the English Government to perpetuate and increase the commercial intercourse between this country and Russia appear to be reciprocated most enigmatically by the cabinet of St. Petersburgli—in the Tariff recently issued, the duties upon all articles of Eng lish product, which are still permitted to be imported into the dominions of the magnanimous Emperor of All the Russias, are more than doubled, while the following articles are totally PholliatTEo:— Trinkets of all kinds of made up jewellery Books of white and coloured paper Musical instruments of all kinds without exception Russian Imperial Bank nous Biome. mat ble, and oilier composition busts and manufactures Different of paper, according to the tariff All kinds of cotton, woollen, ur silk goods, striped, flowered, printed, dyed, worked, transparent, or semi-transparent, with or without gold or silver, as likewise all kinds of nankeen Relined borax Preserved fruits in sugar, or syrup of all kinds All kinds of warlike stores Apothecaries scales Crushed cloves All kinds of manufactures made of wood Cabinet wares of all kind, except those mentioned in the tariff Lacquered and unlacquertal tin ware, of all descriptions All Birmingham goons All Plated goods Looking glasses Purified white vitriol Linen goods of all kinds, white, printed, and striped; table cloths, stockings, nightcaps, and nets of thread Copper manufactures of all kinds Knives, forks, 1311Ufil:TS, scissors, and the like Pelterics of every description, with the exception of those men. tioned in the tariff ' Cloth, green, white, and black Meat, fresh, smoked, and salted Brandy, spirits, and all sorts of liqueurs Beer, cider of all kinds; as also beer-vinegar Wafers Bed' quilts Gloves of all kinds, with few exceptions Pens and Quills Ready-made clothes of all kinds, except those of travellers Refined sugar melis, lumps, and sugar candy in loaves, lumps, or crushed. Refined saltpetre Saddlery of all kinds Mustard of all kinds Glass ware of all kinds, without exception Chicory, acorns, dried and roasted S arch, blue and white And other articles of minor interest. —Yet, for a Government so decidedly hostile to England's best interests, our Ministers oppose a tax upon the importation of their tallow—a tax which would either be very productive to our revenue, or very beneficial to our grazing interests (a most im portant branch of the agricultural community), by raising the price of English tallow. ROYAL AND BRITISH INSTITUTION FOR THE EDUCATION OF THE POOR. On Friday last the annual meeting of the friends and supporters of this excellent institution W 39 held at the school-house, in North-sweet, City-road, where a nume rous and respectable atttlidance took place. Mr. Alderman Wood was requested to take the chair, which lie did, and regretted the absence of the Duke of Sussex. whose indisposition could be the ouly cause of his nun-attendance as the meeting. Mr. Wilkes, the secretary, now read the report, from which it appeared that ihe institution was in a very flourishing state, and had met with the most liberal support of the public. Since the year 1813, the society had received under is care 4,433 boys, and the numbs r had been increased to 4,808—0 f these 2,501 were taught to read and write, anti 2,307 had been completed its the rules of arithmetic. Within the last eight bears 580 girls had been admitted into the schools, and taught n title work and the rudiments of education, and 217 now re mained in the school, the dimensions of wh cit were so very extensive, that assure could be received.—lt also stated, that 30001. have been expended in the erection of two commodious schools, and there only remained a debt of 3001. which it Was anticipated would be liqui dated by that day's subscriptions, anti others nt hand.— The children were clothed according to their good con duct and punctuality, and in the course of the year hand some benefits had been received through the medium of amateur concerts- Olt the report being read, several of the children, ob jects of the institution, were conducted 111L0 the room.- -They were neatly clad, and had the appearance of being well treated. Being placed in rotation, each of them produced some specimen of their forward. nets in education in its various branches, and the tatedle work and writing extracted the highest eulogies of the company. Several read passages out of the Bible, and, what was very interesting, s oni c of the girls were so en thusiact.e in their thirst atter Scriptural knowledge, as to purchase bibles out of their own private pocket money. 'rne boys and girls did not Exceed ten and twelve years of age, and 'heir examination elicited the warmest approba ' . The most meritorious were rewardril with silver medals, with the impression of his Majesty's coronation. - - Several speeches were delivered, and a handsome col lection was made at the doors. The male part of the company afterwards adjourned to the Loudon Tavern, whore a sumptuous dinner was provided. Wm% Esq. M.P. in the chair. A numerous company vat down to dinner, and the festival was supported with the highest cordiality.
