M. A. TAYLOR on his legs. contesding that the Pe titions from Cumberland and Westmorland, respecting Agricultural distress, ouch' to be referred to a Select Connuittee, as well u those from Scotland ; and we understood him to have moved an Amendment to that effect. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, that the Scotch Petitions referred to a particular bonus, of which they had been deprived, and not to the Malt Tax, or any general regulation. After some further observations from Sir R. Per gugson, Mr. Gordon, Mr. Month, Sir M. W. Ridley, Mr. Bennet, Sir O. Hill, Mr. W. Smith, and Mr. Logliington, the amendment was negatived. On the motion of Mr. D. OIDPT. a Committee was appointed to c“nsider the several Reports laid before Parliament relative to the arrangement of Weights and Measures. CASH PAYMENTS. Mr. LUSHINOTON brought up the Report of the Committee on the Bank Cash Payments Bill. Mr. J. SMITH said, that as the supposed intention of the Bank of England not to issue one pound notes after May next, had created much anxiety among the Country Bankers, from an apprehension that the Bank might not issue more specie than the amount of their tine pound notes, he wished to know what the intention was in that respect ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCI4EQVER could not conceive the nature of the danger to be appre hendt.d. The one pound notes being replaced by ca.'', would, he thought, leave the Country Bankers in the same situation as before with regard to the pay ment of their own notes: It was, however, the inten tion to have notes in readiness, in case any inconve nience should arise, but the object was to do without them if possible. Mr. J. SMITH admitted, that the explanation was perfectly satisfactory. Mr. RICARDO expressed himself to the same effect. After a few words from Mr. Hankes, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Mr. Monett, the Resolutions were agreed to, and the Bill ordered to be read the third time this day. The Timber Duties Hill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed upon Monday. Some petitions from Clerks in the Irish Courts of praying- for compensation in consequence of t:irir loss of fees, through certain new arrangements were presented„ and hawing been assented to by the t hmwellor of the Exchequer, they were ordered to lie on the table.—Adjourned at half•past one o'clock.

A Court of Common Council was held yesterday at thlildball, principally for the purpose of considering a Report of the best measure to be pursued in respect of !Aldan -bridge. Mr. Maven, the Chairman of the Bridge holm. Committee, having brought up the Report in which a sew Bridge was recommended, concluded a speech of considerable length by moving that the Ke rn he agr ee d w i t h ; which being seconded, Mr. Old tam aro addressed the Court against the proposed new I "lffe, and moved, as an amendment, that the Court acre, with a report from the Select Bridge-house Com mittee, annexed to the above report, for widening and improving the Waterway, agreeably to an opinion of Mr. Dance and other Surveyors, in the year 1914. Mr. Dixon, 3 1*. *lnn, Mr. Drinkald, Mr. Griffiths, and Mr. Jupp. supported the amendment, and Mr. Favell having re plied, the 'hew of hands was taken, which was greatly in favour of the amendment.

LONDON: FRIDAY EVENING, APRIL 13, 1321. STOCK EXCHANGE. ONE O'CLOCK. The Fonds hare been very steady. The account awl settling have passed off without any material de falcation!, though 'tis said there have been six private failures, which, considering the fluctu (lions that have occurred, is a little extraordinary. Consols are for the next account M. The French papers of Tuesday hare ar ri ed. The following are the chief of their contents : PARIS. Aram 10.—Letters from Boston, of the 7th of March, contain the following intelligence Ilyde Newellle is at Washington. There will, therefore, as yon may imagine, coon be some arrangement ; I►ut it will only be provisional. According to a Bill whi►h passed the Senate, the President is authorised to suspend the Bill of the last Session on the right id' ton ts4gr, if, during the recess of the Congress, an arrangement should be agreed on. This measure passed on thr 2d of March, without opposition, and the restitution of the duties im posed was the remit of the discussion. Patcsor Tile Ft•Nns.—Five per cent. Consols, 92f. Ik. Bank Actions, 1,542 f. slk. TRIESTE, MARCH 27.—Prince Ypsilanti has advanced on the More and grin's. The Tusks are ever• a here massacred. Ali Pacha and Ypsilanti are read• to sup. port each other. Yesterday news arrived of an insurrection in Cotton's tinople, in consequence of the insurrection in Walachia being known. The Greek Patriarch, it is said, was massacred. The letters received this dad• do not, how ever, confirm the news. _ _ . We are quite at ease here respecting the affair, of Piedmont. 'l' he attempt at revolution there Iras proved abortive. Several Carbonari have been arrested at Brescia, and among others the comic actor Canova. Other comedians have fled to Switzerland. NAPLES, Msacn 24.—The following are the terms in which General Carascosa gives an account of the defec tion of his corps:—" General Filangleri informed me that his brigade was in a state of complete disunion ; that the soldiers fired on their officers, and more parti cularly on himself. At the same time I received a re port from General Costa, who had experienced a similar occurrence at Sessa. While I was lamenting these events, 1 heard at a short distance a brisk fire of mus ketry, and learned that it proceeded from five battalions of the first division, who were firing on their officers. Immediately after, my head-quarters, and those of Gene ral Ambrosio, were attacked by these ruffians. General Ambrosio was saved by a company of faithful sappers. I was protected by twenty gendarmes ; they fired on thesoldiers, soldiers, who, as cowardly as perfidious, immediately , dispersed throng,' the country. I beg that patrols of cavalry may hr established on the road from Naples to Averse. I shall make the same arrangement from Averse to Capes. The rest is in the hands of God." This report is dated Capua, March 18, and was publish. ed at Naples on the 19th, by the Minister at War. A deer,' of the Prince Regent, dated the 19th, orders the raising of the embargo on the Austrian vessels, and the restitution of the merchandise which had been mixed. The Austrian official account has been published of the proceedings of tieneral Fat moves army, from the taking of Cara, to the entrance into Nap:es. It is pretended, contrary to private statements, that the Austrians were received with " boisterous acclama tions." Dastardly as the Neapolitans have acted, it cannot be believed that they would exult at the arrival of their foreign masters. It is added that the Aus trian soldiers wore in their caps branches of olive the emblem of race and amity, instead of laarel the emblem of victory. The fraternisation of Austrian soldiers, itis apprehended, must be somewhat like the embraces of a Russian bear. This strange union has, however, been effected, and Neapolitan and Austrian officers have been instructed with joint commissions to the Governors of Gaeta and Pescara, to receive the keys of those two fortresses. in compliance with the Patrice REGENT'S written commands. A private letter from time, dated March 31, states that the knowledge of the surrender of Naples had sot produced any depression of the popular feeling at Turin. The people of these provinces, says the writer, pride themselves on their military aptitude. and the general expression is, " the Austrians will find the Piedmontese real soldiers." The Prince ('a• rigaano, it is added, has declared against the Consti tution at Novara, but his force, consisting only of three regiments, is trilling, and the soldiers are hourly deserting. Letters from Vienna of the 28th March, amply confirm the accounts which We formerly gave of the Greek Insurrection. It h considered by all who are convected with the counties which are the seat of it as of the most formidable description. The Greeks, it appears, commenced by attacking the Castle of Olorgoeo, situated between Bucharest and the Danube, which is garrisoned by about 5,000 Turkish troops. The attack was made by 300 Greeks, in a wild and im• petuous manner. From the great superiority in num ber, and position of the Turks, success was impossible, and the Greeks were all destroyed. Bat they after wards attacked the place with a more suitable force, and succeeded in taking it, and the greatest part of the Turks were pet to death by them. Letters from Scullin state that the Pubs of BELORADS bad retired, and delivered ■p the Castle le the Berviess. 'A gamma proclamation. besides that maid lo ear paper of yesterday, bat bona Waal by Priam Trot- IMAN. LANTI to all the Greeks, slated from Jassy, the 7th March. It is drawn up with great force, sad t;:e topics are well chosen for producing a powerful im pression on those to whom it is addressed. lie tells them, too, that their brethren and friends are every where ready. " The Srrrians, the Suliotes, akd all Epirus irr areas expect ors." Here he points to a connection with Au PACII.t. The alla•ion to Russia is also sufficiently plain ; " Let us march, my friends, and you will see our rights protected by one of thefirst Powers." The followring► extract of a letter from France has been handed to us this morning : MoaLatx. APRIL 4. " I would have answered your letter sooner, had I not been at a tour through Ilritanv. On my re turn yesterday, I lost no time to communicate to you' the situation of that part of France, which I can as sure you i• exceedingly agitateul, and the disposition of the people through the whale of the country ripe for a revolution." 31r. licast, though defeated previously in his at• tempts to reduce the extravagant drain of the Boar►l of Ordnance upon the public purse, made an etrort last night to restrain its pernicious intinence upon the Constitution. The flotionrable Member named to disqualify certain civil officers of that Board from voting at elections for members of Parliament. His attempt was, however, ringicces.fiel. At the present period any measure for the exerri,e of ar►stocratic in fluence is much more likely to experience countenance than one designed for its restraint. The Committee of the House of Common• on the Newington Vestry Bill, met on IVellnesilav for the first time since its re-appointment. rsl r. 11. SI•MNER MIS again called to the ('hair. Ahoot a hundred member• of the House were present, awl the proceedings w e re again very animated. It k not surprising. these dis cussions should occasion a lively interest; for the at tempt to wrest the management of parish affairs out of the hands of the parishioners is a tibrelty in English legislation. Parochial funds bare long been prover bial for being abEsed ; and how they can he better used when a vast thajority of the contributors shall be divested of knowledge awl controol in their collection and application, is a prohlem not calculated [Jr the level of popular comprehension. The present attempt evinces the spread of oligarchical principles among our little great ones; and those whose powers are not large enough to grasp a borough, hare still the arrogance to strive for the government of a parish. FroM borough mongers these pretensions may hy sympathy obtain some countenance t from the people at large they never can. To day ii the Bret iustalment of the redemption of TeMerday the Bulls, who are greet holders of Otnnium, paid it up in full and redeemed it. This they took to their bankers in pawn, and borrowed the full amount to take their stuck. e do not hear of any failures ts yet. Letters were yesterday received from Cadiz, MPH doming that the Spanish brig of war, Achilles, had ar rived there in SS days from Rio Jsneiro. This was the vessel that conveyed out the Rot•al ('ommis•ioner= to Buenos Ayres, for the purpose of negociating with the independent llevernor established there , which, it will be remembered, they olid not succeed. The packet Vengadot had also reached C.rdiz from Haven nab, with two Depttties on board, chosen to represent the Island of Cuba in the Cortes. Last night Mr. Finersey, an extra ronrier employed by Lord Stewart, left town Csr rientsa with dispatches. Lord Castlereagh, now Alarquis of Londonderry, is not expected to go to Ireland till after the Session of; Parliament. tin vacating his seat for the county of Clown, his Lordship, it is now said, will be immedi ately returned for the borourh of Plympton. The late Marquis was honoured with that title in 1516. Ile was first adtanced to the. Peerage as a Baron, in 1789, and created a Visconnt in 1795, and an Fad in 1496. He was twice mai tied, first to a sister of the Marquis of Hertford, by whorls Ise had issue Vis- count Castlereagh, successor to the Marl isate ; and secotedly, to a sister of the Marquis Cato.len, by whom he had issue, Lord Stewart, Ateihass•olor at Vienna, and other children. The Marquis died in the 83d year of his age. The Corporation of Dublin met on Monday last. Besides electing an Alderman, they gut op a Petition spinet the Catholic Claims.
