The Statesman. — London, England, 1823-05-06 00:00:00

TUESDAY EyENING, MAY 6, 1823. German papers. received this morning, bring nothing of a political kind, except speculations on the duration of the war between France and Spain. According to an article from Frankfort ,dated April 22d, a general opi nion prevails there, among the bankers and specnktors in foreign securities, that the war will be short, and wa gers have been laid that peace will be concluded in three month'. The remarks that follow this assertion are rather curious :--••• It is believed that for some time hence the Exchange and prices of funds at Paris and Vienna will continue to im prove \ What a more remote futurity may bring, the spe culators in foreign paper do not inquire, as they calculate on short periods only, in which they think' themselves sore of success. It is owing to this belief that the Span ish bonds of the loan negociated by Hope and Holland, have recovered their credit.—lt might otherwise appear strange, that jest at this moment the Spanish funds should hare risen at the same time as the French. Thom who believe that the absolute monarchy still be restored in Spain, think also that in such a caPe there can be no donht of the recognition of the debts contracted by the Spanish Government before the year IS2O. For the same mann there is no demand for bonds of the loan nego ciated by La Fitte," A Letter from Leipsig gives rather an unfavourable ac count of the commencement of the tair,as well for silk goods, English manufactures, and articles of luxury, as for Saxon and other German manofactures. There are scarcely any purchasers from Poland and Russia, those countries being as it were hermetically sealed by the new regulations of the customs; from Moldavia and Wal lachia also the purchasers are few, became, as may be well imagined, trade is entirely It a stand in those prin cipalities, and ready money is very scaree.—ln one article, however, the business done at the beginning of the fair has been very considerable and profitable, contrary to ex pectaloo ; namely, in ordinary and middling Prussian and Saxon woollen cloths. which have been readily purchased at good prices. The warehouses belonging to several places (from 2,1)00 to 3.0)0 pieces) are wholly cleared, by which considers* sums go to Prussian and Saxon manufacturing towns. Fine cloths also, from the same countries, at 2i to 3 six dollars, per Brabant ell, have met with a good sale, there being an extraordinary number of purchasers from the north and north-west, as well is from the south of Ger many and Switzerland. From Switzerland we learn that the Council of State of the Canton of Frihurg, after a debate of two days, has sup pressed the schools of matnal instruction throughout the whole Canton. The votes for and against the system being equal. the negative roie of the President decided. It was in vain that the Council of Education lied given its opinion in favour of this method. It is thought that the great council will be invoked in May; it will have to discass the plan which wilt be laid before it fora new system of education, the basis of which is to be simultaneous instruction. By advices from the Frontiers of Moldavia, we are in formed that the Moldavian and Wallachian emigrants have obtained permission from Vienna to remain on the frontiers till the month of May. One of the Boyards, who had returned to Buchatest, was arrested on his ar rival. It seems that the troubles in Little Walachia are of no importance. Four Bulgarians, who bad assassi nated a Turk, took refuge in the Russian territory, but the Russian authorities have ordered theca to be deli vered up to the Turks. Paris papers to the sth instant base been received. A Telegraphic despatch announces that Mequicenza,which bad been held by the Spanish Royalists and blockaded by the Constitutional forcer, has been freed from the blockade, in consequence of the movements of General Melitor, after be had taken possession of Saragossa. The flight of the traitor Amirante into Spain is con firmed; but what is the result of defeat and despair is represented in the Ultra Papers as the effect of previous arrangement., and the arrival of the " Royal Por tuguese Army" (swelled to 11,000 infantry, and MOO cavalry), to cooperate with the Invaders, is exultingly announced as an event which must give the last Motor to the indeprndence of the Peninsula. The Quotidtemee asserts that Valencia had been occn pied by Ulmann's corps, and that the first care of that Chief " was to arrest the Judges of General Elio, who had concealed themselves in the city, as well as the Chiefs of the Patriotic Society, and to have them shot." The Journal de Paris contradicts the report in the most formal manner, and adds that so far front Valencia being exposed to any danger, that place was deemed so se cure that the Constitutional General Manso bad been able to march towards Catalonia, to unite his forces with those of Dallasteros and Mina.—But whilst the Papers represent the advance of the French as a triumphal march, and the subjection of Spain as more than half accomplished, private accounts from quarters entitled to some credit, describe their situation in a very dif ferent point of view. Even the Courier acknowledges, is a paragraph we have copied In another part of our paper that the Duke his found unexpected difficulties in his way. In consequence of the system of defence adopted by the Spaniards, 100,000 men were not sufficient to carry on of fensive operations at any distinee from the line of the Ebro. }le is therefore stated to have strongly urged the necessity of Immediate reinforcements, and it is added that 30,000 additional troops have received orders to march from the Northern pins of Prance to the Pyrenees. Should this in formation tarn out to be correct, it must prove the beet corn sent possible, on the real state of affairs in the Peninsula.—lf the army of the Duke be not sufficient to keep the field, and to carry on-liao sieges of the few fortresses in his rear, ‘ffitliat sot 4d#ting Os numerous ones which he has not • • MAITM. - .%. 7 . „L..... •, •.:11 II Lilt. .

In this dilemma the &trembling of a Russian army in the •vicinity of Warsaw is, as the Courier says, once more men tioned: It is more easy, however, to make such a state men it on paper, than to bring such a force into the field for though the Autocrat have sufficient good-will to wards the undertaking, as the Notice, stated in another column, of the Petersburg Custom-house evinces, and may likewise have plenty of men on foot, he happily Las not sufficient means to enable them to march. There area few articles in the French papers from Madrid. In one dated April 24th, it is stated that every body is gone, or on the wingl. and that if the French come there they will find no person of consequence of any class or opinion. This, it is observed, is a charac teristic circumstance, and one which will prove no slight •obstacle to the organization of any Go vernment under French influence. In all• the towns the Constitutionalists, and even many other persons of opposite opinions, retire on the approach of the French. When Count Abishal shall judge proper to withdraw, it is stated that he will carry with him the troops which arrive,from Burgos, and which with those he already has , will form about 20,000 men. According to some, be will take the road to Andalusia—according to others, that to Bstremsditra. FRENCH FUNDS, Friday, ➢lay 2.—Five per Cent.

STOCK EKeIiaNOE,TwELVe o'CLoCK.—Conrols opened this morning at 79&1, but declined to 7871. The Paris papers of Sunday having arrived yesterday afternoon, we cannot expect Monday's papers till late in the day.— The marching of thirty thousand fresh troops front France to Spain has had some effect on the Funds, parti cularly on Spanish Bonds. It is snpposci,however, the decline in the Funds this morning is owing to a re-ac tion by c stain parties, who think they hare realised sufficient on the rise of yesterday. The Ilebrew party sold largely then, and contented themselves with the first profit. We do not hear of any Express having as yet arrived from Paris, and the market which was heavy at the earlier part of the morning seems to bare recoiered. FOREIGN MARKET.

The rrgntient urged by Lora Binning, in opposition to the petition presented last night in the House of Com mons from Edinburgh, praying for a Reform in the re presentation of that City, appears to cut so contrary to his purpose.that, if we did not know his Lordship came free the North of the Tweed, we should have supposed he had come from the other side of the channel. " If once," his Lordship is reported to have said, " the House began to change the representation, it would be impossible to say where they would stoe. The ease of Glasgow was stronger than that of Edinburgh, for the population of Glasgow was larger than that of any place in the Island but London, and yet Glas gow was only one of five boroughs having collectively a single representative." According to this mode of reasoning, it is preposterous for any one to complain, or seek to amend his health or circumstances, as long as there is another faring nurse than himself. It is but sorry consolation to " the Rude town of Edinburgh," where there are only 33 electors, (19 of whorn name their successors), in a population of 100,000, thlt its neigh bouring city, Glasgow, has still greater reason to desire Reform. If we are not mistakeoi the case of Bath is much the same as that of Edinburgh. The Members of the self-elected Corporation of that health-giving City, amount, we believe, to only 31, and the kpbabitants to nearly 40,000. That Corporation, however, it may be supposed, does not require Reform, as the majority of the fdeinhers ; it is understood, are Members also of the Medical Faculty. and, of course, attentive to the welfar e of the Coned/a:ion ! 'ester& day his Majesty received visits from the Duke of York and the Duke of Clarence. It is stated that on Saturday night his Majesty expe rienced a fresh attack of goat in his right hand, and it is now considered as positive that his physicians will dis suade him from his in►ention of boning the drawing. room on Thursday next, as was previmisli determined on bad his hiajesty's health continued unimpaired. •On Sunday night, about ten o'clock, Mr. Hamilton ar rived in a chaise and four, in Downing -street, with de spatches, said to be from Spain, and much importance was attached to them. _ It is reported that Lord 3lount Charles succeeds Lord William tiordoe in the Deputy Rangership of the Green Park, with the provision that Lady Wm. Gordon is to occupy the lodge during her bre. Letters of Saturday were received yesterday from Paris by express, which mention the arrival of intelligence from Seville of the nomination of a new administration by Ferdinand, and that their first step on taking office would be to send a negociator to the hesdinarters of the Duke d'Angouletne to treat fur an accommodation. Though this event is very improbable, it has gained so general a belief as to induce very large purchases of stock, and a rise in every species of Government security. Extract of a letter received from St. Petersburg, dated March 30, O. S.—" The differences whicb hi therto subsisted between our Court and the Porte have been amicably adjusted; and M. de Tatistheffi• mention ed as the Mioister destined to proceed to Constantinople. Letters from Peterkurg. dated the II th ult state that on the preceding day a Government official notice was affixed on the Exchange, warning the inerchatas not to carry on any commercial transactions with Spain and Portngal, and particularly not to send any vessel thither. The same letters mention a curious instance of disaffection to the Russian Autocrat among the peasantry of tha go vernment of I Witepsk, wilco, though recently released from bondage, and actually vested with a right to the I produce of their own labour, have had the ingratitude to answer this benefit by a refusal to pay their taxes. They have even gone so far as to insult an imperial agent sent thither to remonstrate with them, and have had the an dacity to address a letter to the Empress DoWager, in which they accuse the 'Emperor himself of injustice ! It has been found necessary to dispatch troops to the pro vince to pot down the rising disaffection. We may no. tote, by the way, that this appears to be the only authen tic account yet received of any movements of Russian troops. The Weather at St. Petersburg had been very cold since the river opened—from 7 to tidegreen of frost by Resumes thermometer dating the nights; and the floating ice bad chocked op the passage by the ferry in the lower part of the city. The bridge of boats was put op again on the 4th of April, in an open part where it generally stands. There had likewise been a fall of snow. STATE OP IRELAND. (nom TILL DUBLIN POST, MAT 3) We hinted some time ago the possibility of having re course to Martial Law, for the purpose of putting down the disturbances. Some rumour of tins kind tuts gotten into circu:ation, and we should not be surprised if the ultimo ratio regni were tried at last. Most certainly some other plan must he devised, for as yet the Insurrection Act has most signally failed. The accounts from the South, yes terday and so-day, are of a nature far surpassing in atro. city any thing that has yet occurred. On the 27th ul timo, between one and two o'clock in the afternoon, a party of m•st cut down an extensive furze-Erake ' belong ing to the Duh a ll ow H un t, n e a r B u ttevant. On an ef fort being made to prevent it, they attacked the neigh bouring gentlemen with clubs and stones, and drove them from the ground. They were dispersed by the mi litary at length ; some prisoners taken, but not being identified, subsequently liberated. Two were afteisraas arrested at a Fair in the neighbourhood, and committed under the Insurrection Act. In the neighboerhood of Garrycloyne, three houses were burnt about the seine time. The account adds, " An uncommon disregard of their Landlords, a careless ness of behaviour, and a general insolence is plainly to be perceived among the Peasantry of this neighbourhood." This, certainly, is a new featare in the character of the Irish Peasantry. At Duhallow, on Tuesday night, the hag gard of p Gentleman, containing one hundred and fifty tons of hay, was consumed, together with A vast quantity of bar ley. " The stock," says our account, " was seized under execution, and the greater part sold by auction, on the pre vious day, but the purchasers had not time to remove it, the Infernvl Rock system interfered, and the whole became a prey to the nightly incendiaries." The most dreadful outrage, however, remains to be told, The account. which is mentioned in The Cork Advertiser is manifestly coloured is highly as it will bear; but, if there be aoy truth at all in it, it deserves the serious consider ation of Government. We abridge the detail from the pape r in question:— " On Tuesilly night last an attack was made ahont 9 o'clock, by an immense party of Insurgents, on the Pala tine Village of Glanasheen, where four Policemen were stationed. S 1 houses were laid in ashes. Two of the Police, with two of the Palatines, were on guard, who heard the Rebels approaching, and instantly chal lenged them, en which the Rebels fired a volley, fortu nately without effect Another party set fire to soon of the Palatine houses, which, with the ferniture, &r. were totally consumed. Lieutenant Lightbody, of the 71st Regiment, was on patrol about two miles distant, who saw the' flames and heard the shots and arrived in sufficient time to fire a volley oo the Rebels, who fled : and in the pursuit they found one man dead, and took two prisoners —A hall passed under the arm of one of the Police, without doing much ir.;ury, and no further jujus, was sustained by the Police or the Army. A Palatine Schoolmaster, whose house was on fire, al tempted to get out through the roof on heating the Rebels declare that he was a Protestant Devil, and that not one should be spared. He bad a miraculous escape, having been fired at repeatedly." We have omitted a great deal of what may be call. d thefillins staff of this paragraph being manifestly, if our opinion, exaggeration. Hut if 7'he Cork Advertitet tells the truth, this we regard as a very serious affair. In Clare there have been also some outrages commit ted, and houses burnt. Mr. BLACKBURN, the King', Counsel, will preside at a Session to be held at Six-mile bridge, in this County, on Monday next. Notwith. standing the extent of the outrages, there are but fen prisoners for trial. Captain Rock has certainly made a movement to wards the North. We have already mentioned a fee instances of his ferocity in the Counties of Down o n, Antrim. Hy the ArmagL Paper which arrived this tta. we learn, that the house of a Farmer near Tanilrager. who is also a Yeomanry Serjeant, together with all hi out-offices and property, together with a horse and cow, were burned. Geoeral Rohe h appointed Ranger of Windsor Littl. Park, vacant by the decease of Uen. Grenville. _ Conn:, Manes 3.—We have received from Candi* flu following news : • The Pacha of Egypt had put to sea an Immense convoy of warlike stores and provisions for the Ottoman fleet. " Tuis convoy was attacked on the ?*d of March, and the whole captured by the Greek squadron.—The convoy con sisted of a frigate, which has been sunk, and two brigs, which remain in the hands of the Greeks." We mentioned, on Saturday, that the Duke d'Angnu leme bad found some unexpected difficulties in hi march upon Madrid. The nature of these difficultie will be best understood by the following fact, which we communicate upon good authority—viz. that 30,000 ad ditional troops are ordered to march to the Pyrenees, from the northern parts of France. We believe the last despatches from the bead-quarters of the French Arms strongly urged the importance of immediate r.•iuforce ments. In fact, the necessity of masking, or reducing, the along fortresses of San Sebastian, Pompeian', an•t Figueras, and the impossibility . of doing either with the force actually employed, explain sufficiently the grounds of ibis new levy. This is the cause,!and not on acco ut of negotiations being commenced, that there has been a pause in the advance of the French army. We have also another piece of intelligence to announce, respecting which strong rumours have prevailed fur some time. It is, Mat a Russian army is undoubtedly assembling in Me Duchy of Warsaw ; whether to be used for the pur pose of overawing France in the absence of her own s.d diers, or as a body of troops to join the French in Spain, we cannot pretend to say. When, however, we unite this circumstance with the news last received from Vienna, stating, that the communications between that Court and St. Petersburg had become very active, and with the in telligence from Lausanne, that the Austrian troops, were about to evacuate Italy, ha I unexpectedly baked upon the frontiers of Lombardy, we think it requires no extraordinary sagacity to presage the coming events.— (Cot der.) At the Brighton Catch and Glee Club, C. lncledon, the founder of that well organised institution, who bad been labouring under an indisposition that had threaten ed to terminate hat with Its life, was pronounced by•the President.
