The rumoured hosti:it LI in the North appear to be passiog away. , •The King of :Deamark re.. .viewed his troops nt Copenhagen on the 14th inst . _and they were afterwards to return to their several homes—Bernadotte has also been reviewing _his ♦ troops at the camp in Sconia. It is added, upon } the authority of intelligence from London, that the % payment of the Norwegian debt by Sweden to :Denmark is tit be made in ten years, by regular annual instalments of 300000 rix dollars bans►. JREPOR FED C 11 1 VINE OF SIR GREGOR WGRE- 0011 AND DI, 1114410P5. . Damon, .Jane •the Bristol, Har vey, from Jamaica. -She spoke off Cape Nicholas an .American schooner •from Porto Bello, bound to •,Bultimore, who .stated that aficr•Sir G. NPGregor had been in possession of that place fourteen days, a severe battle took place, in which J(0 privates and 70 ()Writ officers were killer:l, and himself and the test of his force wounded and taken prisoners. On Saturday policies were opened at lloycrs, to receive five guineas, for which ten are to be returned, if a de.:lar.tten of War takes place between this e inn ry and America, on or before aat day twelve month. by a recent arrival of iltnerican Tapers, .we arc informed that Comur,dore Perry is going to sea in command of a squad-eon whose destination is un known, but presumed to be for the. western coast of South A nitrica .The squadron consists of the Jahn Attainl, the Ontario sloop of war, and the En terprise brig. Large emigrations are taking place from the maritime districts of the United States to • t'.e western territory, more especially the Illinois. This emigrating spirit is of a difrerent character throughout the republic of North Atueriea, front what it appears to be in other countries: with most Europeans it is the result of hunger and necessity, which long struggle with local afiectiuns before they can move the unhappy emigrant from the scenes of his childhood anti soil of his fathers. The citizen 01 . the United States has no loves to restrain him, no griefs to drive him : he emigrates, as he amokes, (rpm pure indifference ; and cures no more for the spat in which he was born than fiir that which he ,has never seen. It is remarked, that the people of the United States seem to be, above all .others, di vested of local attachments. But to those who einisidtr such a national characteristic as mcrely..cu . riot's, and Kim 'aorta interest, it may not be ansiss . to remark, that a vagrant people can have few of those motives to virtue which arise from a sense of .the value of reputation, or from a duccrence for.tbe opinion of their neighbours. Like gipsies, the back woodsmen become outcasts from all that is enlight ened and improved among mankind : but worse in oue respect than gipsies, the back woodsmen of America live separated from each other; they arc amenable to no compact .with .any living society, even the least esteemed ; .they sympathise ,with .nothing human ; selfishness, supreme and .unbound ed, is the hitter print, the terrible. law •of their condition ; nor can we imagine a more fearful 4 prcgpect fur arty state, than what must sprint,from the growing predominancy of such habits ismong its members; from a class of.scarcely men, rapidly increasing in magnitude but declining „tn, nature, mid s t:ea:ding further every day from the discharge of thoge moral obligatimis waich bind tavether the whole fabria-cf sue4ty. -Zhe . Duke and .Duchess of Bedford, th: , Duke and Duchess of Wellington, the Duchess of Rich nuniel, the Marquis and 'Marchioness of Tavistock, the Earl and Countess Grey, and a large party, took an aquatic excursion in the Admiralty barge, /receded bra hand of music in anothe► barge, to Greenwich, to diuner, on Friday. Synod other diuingnished personages went in their carriages, a. .d joined them at the Ship -tavern. The purchases of Stock male by the Commission er; of the Sinking Fund will be on a scale greatly ilithiniihed after the present week, on account of its appropriation, in great part, to the service of,the year. For this event, generally, the public have been long prepared, although the real effact of the measure on the value of the Government securities remains still to be determined. The amount of, these purchases has been, for the quarters ending the sth of January and the sth of July, about 4,300,0001. each, And .fur the quarters ending the sth of April and the 10th of October, about 3,400,0001. each, making on the whole year, on aggregate sum of 13,500,0001. The daily pur chas:.s in the January and July quarters, were 96,000/. sterling ; unl in the April and October quarters 76,000/. Since the pew taxes about to be raised, and the produce of which is to be applied hereafter to the :sinking Fund, will not be imme diatel3 productive, the daily purchases after the sth of July will be extreme:y iusigmficant. It is cal culated that, on an average, the Commissioners will nottave at their disposal,. on each day of purchasing, 1 1 a larger.sum then 17,000/. sterling. As the funds declined last week nearly one per cent., and scarcely a day passed in which the nt'rket fin• stock was not a heavy one, one of the reasons given for this uni form state of depression was the approaching period, of diminished 'purchases ; but, independently of.this • ' cause, whether real or imaginary, there ware others which governed the operations of the -Stook -Ex change. The party who have been .so long endea vouring to run down the prices,. received last week an accession of strength. On some occasions so many sales•wcre offered, that it was difficult to find purchasers without making a sacrifice. With this combination .of.unfitvourable circumstances, it is not surprising that.the funds have fallen, but that they have maintained the present prices, and have not &di:lei/still lower. Opinions in the city vary mreatly as to the turn the funds are likely to take ; . tl:c majority appear to expect a still further depres sion, but many of the must experienced speculators are sanguine in anticipating a material change for the better. Omnium varied little in the course of Saturday; it left off at 21 discount, Consols, for opening, concluded at 68. which, deducting the dividend, leaves the price of that stock at 69. It is gated in the American papers .that Messrs Perkins and Toppan, of Newburyport, Massachu setts, lately passed through - New London Connecti cut, on their way to London. Mr, Fairman, Engraver, of Philadelphia, goes out wi!li thse gen tlemen. They are to be employed in .Cngraving fo r the Bank of England. From the specimens of their abilities which have been exhibited in London, Mr. l3agot, it is stated, has advanced them 5,000 i. ster ling, and it they succeed in their Lusines, they are to rew:ive in addition 100,0001.
