SZERACT 07 • LETTER FROM ItOLLAND, onus ‘ OCTOBER 18. • ti Many sears ago, there was at Brussels a Papal . Nuncioi with whom eight or nine Archpriests could r... • correspond on the affairs of the.k;athekies in Hot . land, who had no Bishops of their own. In Mac Revolution thicNuticio went to Holland, and '1164' • to Munster, where there resided at that time M. Cismbatani, House Prelate of the Pepe, who, et the beginning of 1814, was kindly treated by this King of the Netherlands, and from that place di. vected the business of his office. Ile directed also C"lttter. correspondence with the Head of the Church .in .4.t.riffaire Tilistielb•loslitpensAtioni, peeence, &c. atcord• 'Fr • i n g •to. the well-kuown fundamental.constitution of , • Catholic Church. Eves) during the short reign of s .Loais floneparte, ,M. Ciambatatti was supported as he wished, whenever he wanted in any affair the aid • • ..of the temporal Government. But the Government has now adopted quite other principles. The Ca tholic Ea-Priest Kramer, .at Amsterdam, has been called to account, being accused of a correspond ence with the Papal Ambassador, M. Ciambatani, and Eras thus attempted to apply the 207th Article of • the Code Napoleon, respecting prohibited corre spondence with foreign Powers, to their Spiritual Head. This proceeding has eicited astonishment end alarm in the Catholics of the Netherlands, who coostitute about tbree.fourtbs of the population of the kingdom. " It is well known that the Pope's Ambassador, who is at the same time Apostolic Vicar, has been considered as the sole Bishop of the Catholics in (Old) Ilolland. Even Bonaparte, by a Decree of 18th Oct. 1810, ordered the continuation of the con , etitution of the Catholic Clergy, and therehy ap. proved their connexion with the Apostolic Vicar. — M. Kremer may confidently appeal to this Decree, which is of a later date than the Code, and to. the • Fundamental Law of the Kingdom of the Nether. 4 "latids. The same spirit appears to show itself in this . affair, which bas justly excited so much attention in • the msecutien of the Bishop of Ghent, Prince Maurice of Oroglio. The Chapter of Ghent was lately desired to take upon itself the administration of the Bishopric, because the Bishop was out of the • kingdom, and could exercise .no jurisdiction. But the Chapter answered that itsthought itself bound still to look upon the Prince of troglio as the law. ful Bishop, became the temporal Government, sc . cord,ing to the Cation Law, was not authorized to deprive him of his power."

It is true, as stated yesterday, that Mr. O'MEARA has been removed from the list of Naval Surgeons, and the pretest alleged, that some passages of a very serious nature were contained in his Memorial against Sir HUDSON LOWE. But, will the liberal part of England or of Europe rest contented with this novel mode of getting rid of charges of so grave a nature, without permitting the accuser to establish the truth sof his allegations, as he had offered to do? Ta l i Statement that Mr. O'MEARA had asserted that Sir Ilunsa Lows had made a proposition to him to poison BONAPARTE, is contradicted on good autho. rity ; but Mr. O'MEARA stated, that suggestions against his conscience were made to him. THE QUEEN. The following is the Bulletin of her MAJESTY'S health, issued this morning : " Kew Palace. Nov. 10.

Throughout yesterday her MAJESTY coutinued in a state of great suffering and debility, and there was every reason to apprehend a still worse night then the preceding ones. Reports of the onte of her MA JESTY were sent to the Panics RECENT repeatedly in the course of the day. \ The correspondence which we insert from Air-In. Chapelle contains some interesting statements. We cannot vouch for their all being fads. The CM_ loess is expected to break up on the 2-I , h or 25'h lest. The King of PRUSIIA had returned to the ,eat of Conferences. The Treaty of Alliance between the form great .Posters of the Holy League, has, it seems, been again renewed, and sent off to Paris and London for ratification. It is stated, in the let ters, that Messrs. BARING and Co., the Con. tractors for the great French Lonn, had influenc ed the French Government to apply to 'the Slice; reigns for an extension of the term of payment to twelve months Instead of nine. It is added in ex. planation, that the first proposal for an extended lam of payment came from the Government of well known ; hut it Mail lilikffsiiiwd - i: thoi.

Despots, and despotic monopolies is trade s are sometimes as injurious to a Commonwealtb,as the most intolerant political tyrants. It cannot be dis guised, as the dealers at a late Meeting themselves observe, that "suspicions hese been excited towards 1!, moo of the greatest respectability !" Whet are the measures taken to remove these suspicions? Nothing more than Meetiogs and Advertisements of the per. ' t sons who conceive themselves calumniated to puff of • their ono Teas. The establishment of a New Teal Company in Ludgate -hill,to supply the Public with a, genuine article, rouses the feelings of a Meeti n g; to put it down, and viadieste th e sepstatiotet ' of the real Teti Deale r s and Grocers; and forth, . among other angry men, steps Mr. BROWN, to read Resolutions, and show his taste aotl . ,know- ledge in Tsa, es well as eloquence, by 'indulging in the puff direct, the pull' oblique, and the put posi• tive ; but in spite of all Mr. BROWN's puffs and es- planations, the Public are left where they were with regard to the suspicions to be removed. The ' ! " firm and dignified steps" of Mr. Baowst sod hid ". friends appear to lead to no'great advantage to the 1 Public. 'file Public are not relieved by them from 71 any disabuse in the price of this most costly article; and in spite rf all, and after all; that has been or can bes Aid on the subject of Tea, it is material to admit 'i that tastes may .differ av to Tea as well as other ' things. What one person may consider bed, soother • . may hold good. The beet criterion is certainly public demand and public estimation. The Public have a right to a genuine article, and may and will go where they find themselves best served; hut the privilege of . 1 fair competitio.n, and puttlk: encouragement, which always contributes to their advantage, should not be withheld from individuals span the mere pretext of others conceiving themselves injured by such compe tition. - - • Yesterday, Count MUNSTER had so audience of the PIUNCZ ItMIENT) at Cetlioe-helhe• ! r r. t, e. 6 y . 4' tt her that debt consisted of indeed in foreign countries or et been di ;minus Bork and Miter Ps 1 con tsionori would . * appoint. proportion. t, Ibis Is the St. UPI yet been O'olfdlotil end nich, a I..geseanteos.ii Of the Treaty, can b e i ii be fulilk forthwith.— The fat *flail, ni si t l e# • ' Olt (0 Duke of ilo i . -, firi soli .i . *testy, de wiertitsk r ~ , se Queen of' fro 7 0 6 1. - VO I the lost Omit: tit .. itsrslcs b 'amity of I l 4 l)tiorieistiftt twelve mut of the Fadkuppostar . , eiltos, tettiict re popolorift 4* CO V 149 Amigo iik g .114' ,, b C eti hare ai i • ''t , Coin* s i a k ir ry are can ' rit oircola . ~; . • • :ly int that Raiiia - iitaci elrired 'to th a t a for the 0,04 ..f the lonian b 1 sect refw44 " nter into any ,Y sr i I. 1 heAl , been able to 40abt Phis reporils: and.d. 4 PsitY 1 mites htri from Paris to. pomp If 16 days kali 4 Congr e ".77, - of the . , t . ,a 0 0 . 1 T ....„...) • . .. ;-: .• ... t 1% ligoPr the original contract, c Lit!sum BARIN G spy .

Nov. 6.—Prirtwo, Irlrta ileloar r P M. In the account which I yesterday transmitted to you of the application to Congress for a prolongation of the term for paying the contributions, I merely stated li e fact and the result, without entering into those explanations with whit% it ought to have been accompanied, or into a detail of, the circumstances which were necessary iii-AieaVell and impartial view of the tf aosactino. Yea . / see by the P ar i s Papers, that the French Fonds have been felling strict th, cnuckenlou of the lose Coeuresett, and that the diverra "on the bow Stock has been tig. There Was a consequent stagnation of busineu, and con •itterable einhairassment in the money-market. This change forcibly strut k the Finance Minister of France sod the French Government in general. Its cause they could not fail to attribute to the conditions of the tale Convention. Th e y therefore applied to Mr. Bating for his opinion oe the subject, and the steps .skit ought to be taken in consequence. The Finance Minister represented to this eminent hanker at the l oamy time, that, in his opinion, he had speed on too short a term for the payment of the contributions ; and that the transference of so large a sum from the mercantile circulation to the Treasury of the different Governments, in so limited a period as had been agreed upon, might produce very injurious conse quences on the finances of France, and the commer cial interests of Europe in general. The French Idinistry, therefore, proposed to Mr. Baring, it he would agree to prolong the term of payment, to apply to Congress to relieve him from the part of his engagement which stipulated for the 6ual discharge of the contributions in nine months, and to re quest a prolongation of the period fir a few months more. Mr. Baring, in a !Remodel. which he re. turned in answer to this representation, declared that he had sufficient means provided for answering all demands, and that lie was completely prepared to fulfil all his engagements within the stipulated pe. riod. lie fully concurred, however, in the opinion of the French Minister of Finance, that so rapid an abstraction of so large sums from the commercial cir culation might have injurious consequences on all the parties concerned, and agreed in the propriety of the proposed application to Congress. The result was that the Allied Mioisters agree to a prolongation of three months, and probably will not object to a month or two more, provided, upon consulting with Mr. Baring and others, whose opinion is of importance, they find such a measure advisable. lire-Baring is espected here, not on Saturday, but Monday. The fall in the French Funds, which, among other things, has been the cause of this application, has arisen merely from a desire iii the holders of Omniem (as we would call it) to realize their profits in as short a time us possible, and the consequent great quantity of stock brought into market, without s proportional increase in the number • of bayera ; aid from no apprehended insecurity either in the. Con. tractors or the French Government. The Treaty or Declaration of Alliance between the five Powers, I which is to wind op the great drama in which the fate of France has been so deeply involved, is said to have received the signature of Ministers, and to have been gem off to Paris and Loudon for ratification in the beginning of this week. : The Esk, Copan G.
