I I .• • FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. French Papers to the 7th instant, and the Etoile of Sa turday have come to hand• They contain no intelligence from either Greece or Spain, and would require little more than the mere notice of their arrival, were it not for the following► observations of the Ministerial Journal des De bats on his Britannic Majesty's Speech at the opening of Parliament. .1 The Speech of the King of England (says the Journal des Debuts) has appeared ; it is warded, as we announced it would be, and is moreover extremely pacific. In 1823 the Parliamentary Session, both in France and England, opened at a moment when the peace of the world was threatened, and great events began to reveal themselves in futurity. In 1824 the Parliamentary year opens under the most pacific auspices. All Governments are united, all equally wish for peace. After thirty years of wars and • revolution, all the nations are disposed to rest. France, that has never been before so free & happy, & whose prospe rity increases in consequence of the independence which she has acquired, will dedicate all her attention to maintain this perfect harmony and this reciprocal benevolence be tween Governments. A Septennial Chamber, by fixing all destinies, will 'foster and strengthen amongst us that spirit of concord ; and it will again be to that French House which has reigned over us during nine centuries that we shall owe what the usurpation neither could nor would give us—liberty and peace." (FROM THE ELOILE OF SATURDAY'S DATE.) Paws, Fan. 6.--Letters from Rome, of the 26th of Janu ary announce the death of Cardinal GOnsalvi. The Pope was very ill. (PROM THE MONITEUR OP FRIDAY.) The official part contains an ordinance of the Kinr rela tive to the Eleves d'Administ ration de la Marine. the cre ation of whom was ordered by a decree of April 19, ISA. Their number is fixed at ten; they will be appointed by the King, on the presentation of the Minister of Marine; none will he presented unless he has beet► judged admissible in a public examination. The Pieces shall have the same rank as the principal clerks of Marine, and shall wear the same nniform.The pay of the Pieces is fixed at 500 francs per an num by sea as well as by land.

BA YONN E INTELLIGENCE. BATONNe,.Ian. 31.—We have letters from Nladri.l of the 28th, the Gazette and the Restaaratlor, neither of which contain any news from the provinces; it even appears that for the future these donrnals will not give any but what have undergone a strict Censorship. Private letters, too, are silent, and in public people speak with the great est reserve. There is, however, a report that SO:Or private letters announce serious troubles in Galicia ; that Colonel Amor is recruiting a body of troops; that all the fortresses are in a manner surrotinded by bodies of partisans, which hinder the soldiers of the garrison from going out singly. The amnesty is still spoken of, but people in general mnd it difficult to believe in it. For these two days a very extraordinary piece of news has been in eirrailot ion at Bayonne: it is said that there have been at Cadiz too insurrections immediately succeeding earl( other, hut the French troops behaved so well, that oilier was wholly restored. Two barracks. however, were burned. This news stands the more in need or confirmation as we have letters from Cadiz of a very recent date, written by persons of distinction, who were in a situation to know every thing. Letters from Pampelana say that the French are carrying on immense works to strengthen the citadel, which seems to indicate the intention and the necessity of remainin g there a long time. The prisons of the city become gradual ly empty, in proporti nri as the prisoners are able to ply the exorbitant sums demanded of them. To induce tilem to pay, the alternative is offered themieither to (In so, or to Fe seat to the galleys. Several young ladies in the city have haen in this situation. There is a stronger report than ever that 12,09 men will shortly enter Spain, and that new divisions of troops will be formed on our frontiers. Five or six thousand con scripts will ;Asa pass throng+ to recruit the corps which have been reduced by the discharges given. The military who are electors have received orders from the IYar Minister to go and give their votes. FRANKFORT PAPERS. TRIESTE, JAN. 17.—A shin has arriv-d here in el..ven days from Zmte. According to the private letters which we have received through this channel, Mavrocordato is stated to have appeared on the of this month with a division of the Greek fleet before Patras, while Cola cotrovic passed the fortress on the land side. iussuf Paella, the Itovernor is said to have made proposals to evacuate the place, on being allowed to proceed, without hindrance, with the garrison to Smyrna ; but that these terms were not accepted. This intelligence, however, stands in great need of confirmation, as well as that of the capture, by Alavrocordato, of two vessels, having on board fugitives, with money, from Patras. Othee letters say that a Greek ship has fetched Lord Byron from Cephalonia, and con veyed him to Bless° Zeit Jun. 30.) NEW YORK PAPERS. General Tallmadge has given notice of his intention to introduce at tbeAssembly to abolish imprisonment for ilet+t.— This humane object appears generally to occupy the attention of states throughout the union. Islextco.—A Committee of the Mexican Constituent Con gress on the 20th of November reported a draught of a consti• lotion, in which they propose to establish a National Govern ment, to embrace the provinces and intendencies lately included in the vice royalty of New Spain, and modelled pretty closely after the constitution of the United States, with the exception that the Roman Catholic religion is to be the religion of the State, and the exercise of any other religion is prohibited. It proposes to leave the administrations of internal concerns to the provinces, which, to the number of 15 or more, shall have republican constitutions of their own, on t►e same general prin ciples as that of the nation. Two Arabian horses, intended as a present to his 14iajesty, passed through this city yesterday morning, on their way to the metropolis, accompanied by an Arab and an interpreter. — (Kentish Chron ) DIARY FOR THE WEEK.

This is a lesson so forei lily taught by natural f•elingr and common sense, that we have often been surprised, that recourse to this defensive system, has not been mare frequent than it has been in this Country. Thanks to Providence, however, which brings good out of evil,that the agents,andimanagers cf the Bridge street Gang, have been chosen at last as the instruments of rousicg the public mind to a sense of the utility and im portance of such a system. Glasgow, the great commercial capital of Scotland, which has for years been distinguished alike, for liberal politics, for moral habits, and for the ob servance of religious decorum, has set the honourable ex ample, to every city and town in the United Kingdom. — The recent verdict given in the trial of Mr. Hunt, which we feel assured is at variance with the opinion of the sound,untainted, and impartial part of the public, has • removed every doubt of the danger to which liberal discus " sion must be exposed, under such a system. When this plan becomes generally adopted (as we hope it soon will) one part of the community wiil he no longer ban died against another, in angry contentions and furious hostility; but peace reign, truth triumph, and the liberty of the Press stand a Chance of becoming something more than a name. Saturday's Gazette announces that the Right Reverend Father in God, Doctor Henry Ryder, Lord Bishop of Glouces ter, has been recommended to be elected, by a eonge (retire. Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry ; and of Mr. Cninnery, to be a Resident Commissioner in Spain, for the settlement of the claims of British and Spanish subjects. On Friday, the iron gates at the new entrance to St. James's Park, at the end of Pall-mall, were thrown open to the public. It appears by a letter from Long Island, New York, dated the 19th of December, that the Rev. Mr. Colton, about whose disappearance there have been so many re ports, LOS arrived in the United States. A temporary floating breakwater, projecting from the shore about half a cable ' s length, is laid down oppost.te Deal Castle, with a small flag on the outer end.— ( Cen glah Gaze Jet) • - Ilnictrrox, StINDAY AFTER:Y(ION. His Majesty was sufficiently recovered to he able to a- tend Divine Service this day, in the Palace Chapel, the con cregation in the body of which was a crowded one. The King. exceting pe nt, i s that his Majesty is somewhat paler from co p nfinemes looking well. —(Mo Paper.) Saturday afternoon, at two o'clock, a Cabinet Connell was held at the Foreign Office, Downing-street, which was attended by the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of (humidly, the Earl of Westmoreland, the Earl of Liverpool, Mr. PeA, Mr. Canning, Earl Bathurst, the Doke of Wellington, Viscount Melville, Mr. Wynn, Mr. Huskisson, Viscount Sidmonth, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, fee. The de liberations of the Cabinet continned for en unusual length ened time, being three hours and a half, they not breaking up till half-past five. Yesterday afternoon, at three o'clock, a Cabinet Coon cil was held at the Foreign (Mee, Downitieastreet, which was attended by the Lord Chancellor, the Earl of Harrowhy, the Earl of Liverpool, the Earl of Westmore land, Viscount Melville, Mr. Peel. Mr. Canning. Earl Ba thurst, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Mr. Wynn. The Cabinet continued in deliberation till live o'clock. The deed) of the late Earl Cornwallis has thrown much valuable Church preferment into the hands of :Ministers. for University intelligence contains the appointment of Dr. Smith as the Dean of Christ Church, in the nova of the new Dean of Durban). By the promotion of Dr. Bethel, to the See of Gloucester, in the room of the new Bishop of Litchfield, the enery of Chichester will be- come vacant—the successor D , a we believe, is not yet fixed upon. • Mr. Wingfield, it is generally presumed, is to be the new Master in Chancery. in the room of Chief Baron Alex ender ; anal Sir Griffin Wilson, the Recorder of Windsor, is to he appointed the Welch Judge, in the place of Mr. Wingfield. A Peerage has been offered to the Lord Chief Justice Abbott, which, it is said, his Lordship declined. A letter from New York says. that a hill had been intro diced in the (Liaise of Representntives, providing for bring ing the Marquis de la Fayette to !liis country, and return ing him to la ranee again, in a national ship, provided he 'wishes, as it has been reported, to pay a visit to America. A mail arrived on Saturday from Malta with letters and papers to the 27th of December, but they contain nothing important. Sir Thomas Maitland rifled for Corfu on the 7th, on hoird his Majesty's ship Martin. The Gazette dc Madrid anal the Restaurador to the 27th tilt. have been received. These pipers contain a detail of the mutiny which we stated, some days ago, to have taken place at Manilla. It was excited. it ap pears, so long ago as the second or third of last June, by two officals of the regiment Del Rey, named Novales and Ruiz. In this mutiny the King's Lieutenant Folgueras was killed by the mutineers, bet after some con test the revolt was put down ; Novales, Ruiz, and 21 ser jeants were shot, and the common soldiers pardoned. There fell on both sides in the conflict about 12 or 14 persons, among whom was an officer named Don All erte Arguelles, nephew to the celebrated Don Augustin Arguelles. A vessel named the Precioss, which had sailed some time previously I for Cadiz, was brought hack to Manilla about the end of May. Part of the crew being South Americans had killed the Captain and other officers, hoisted the Independent flag, and steered for Lima; but the pilot, named Barredo, having foetid an opportunity to speak, in their own language, to the Philippine Indian sailors on board, induced them to join him in recovering the ship and bring;ng her back to Manilla. On Saturday morning last, Mr. John Dobson, ela rat to Messrs. Hutchinson and Pladeralces Bank, in Stockton, took a seat at that place in Shields Mail-coach, entrusted with parcels containing bank-notes, bills and checks, to a considerable amount, for tl.e purpose of exchanging . with the different banks at Newcastle and Sunderland. lie de posited his parcels under the seat, in the inside of the' coach, and during the time they were changing horses, went into the Inn on some trifling errand. On his arrival at Sunderland, he found the parcels I'lo been stolen out of the coach, which is supposed to have been done at Stock ton ; be immediately returned to acquaint his employers, anal every diligent search is making fur the robber. Suspi cion has fallen on a person who came be the coach from York, and who quitted at Stockton.—Stecterstle Paper. The Wealher.—Junuary, in which the most intense cold in England is usually felt, has passed away without storms of any kind, and with more sunshine than has often been witnessed in April. The first week of February has also elapsed, unattended by any of those stern conco mitants with which that variatde and dreary month is generally ushered in; indeed we have hitherto experienced little of the inclemency of winter, who has not yet un folded his awful train of " vapours, clouds, and tempests' ; for though snow is to be seen on the mountains in the dis tance, particularly Skiddaw and Crossfell, yet there is comparatively a mere sprinkling en the neighbouring fells and none whatever on the low grounds. Since our last, two or three days have intervened in which the air had rather a frosty temperature ; but the sky remained unclouded, anal little or no ice appeare I on the seaters . The weather, up to the time when this paper went to press, continned open and pleas int, with an uncommonly mild and serene atmosphere for the sca3on.—Carlislc Journal. EARLY INCCOATION.—AD instance of the extreme mildness of the season has recently occurret: at Ilarrahy, near this city, where, about the begineing of the new year, a hen formed her nest in a hedge-row and having brooded the usual time over the eggs, unperceived by any person. on the 22:1 ult. brought out nine chickens, all of which are alive, and thriving as though they had been hatched two montes later.—(lbid.) INDICATION nv SPRING.—No greater proof, perhaps, can be given of the wild temperature of the season, than the very early sineine of birds. In the neighbourhood heard of of D theearhetatn, of ne ar Itlaryport, a thrush , in fine tune, was n January : and on the 12th, the melodious notes of the black bird were heard neer the same place.—(lbid.) WINCHESTER, February 7.—la censetmence of the extreme mildness of the season, a variety of flowers already adorn the gardens in this neighbourhood ; and, should the weather continue favourable, the blossom of the early fruit trees (es pecially apricots), will very shortly appear. EXETER, February 7.—So mild has the season been of late in this neighbourhood that primroses are to be met with in almost every hedge. CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY, FEB 9.—Last week the ar rivals of all sorts of Grain, except (late, were good, and this morning there is a good additional supply of Wheat, Barley, anal Beans, from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk. The quantities of Oats here at present is only moderate. The millers, apparently with one consent, declined to purchase Wheat this morning, and it was some time before sales of any consequence could be made, the trade than is tthiherefore reported 3s. to 4 s. per quarter cheaper s day se'nnight, at which reduction several extensive purchases were made. Barley is now so plentiful as to have reduced the value of this article 'is. to 3s. per quarter since last Monday, with a very heavy trade. Beans are declined Is. per quarter. limy Peas are Is per (punter lower. Boiling l and White Peas are not plentiful, and they arc held at about the same prices as last Monday. Although the con snmption of Oats now is larger and the supply rather moderate, yet the buyers have purchased so few today that the prices are declined ls. to 2 s. p er q uarter from the terms of last Monday. Flour is unaltered. SMITHFIELD MARKET, Feb. 9.—There was a fair supply of Oxen this morning at market, but not quite so great as on former Mondays, a nd the prices is as h i g h as on e e i, day se'nnight. Of sheep the market was rather short. which also maintain their price; there appea - ed a best( trade in the eatly part of the morning. Veal is scarce and very dear.

She sailed from Malta on the 21st of December, in company with a squadron under the orders of Captain G. W. Hamilton, C. 8., of the Cambrian, which consis'ed of, he. sides that ship, the Enryalns, 42, Captain Hon. A. W. 1. Clifford, C. ; Medina, 20, Captain Hay; Martin, 2tl, Captain Henry Eden ; Rose, 20, Captain Clowes ; an d the Despatch, 18, Captain B. H. Scott, which sere des. tined to blockade the port of Tunis, in the event of the Bey refusing to comply with certain requisitions, which were principally the trap ciliate release of several persons who, while under the protection of the British flag, had been forcibly seized by a Tunisian corsair, and thrown into s lavery ; and that the Bey should sign a treaty, to secure the British flag from such insulting aggressions in future. With the first, the Bey readily complied ; but it was not until after souse delay, & orders had been given to the Bri tish Consul to strike his flag, and prepare for immediate cm. barkation,that he acceded to the second part of the demand. The remembrance of the disastrous fate of Algiers was, it was believed by the squadron, too strongly impressed on the liey's memory to suffer him to try whether England would carry her threat% into executino on the present ocra• sion. The service being performed, the ships °title squadron dispersed to their respective stations, viz. the Cambrian and Deli:styli to Corfu; Euryalas and Rose to Smyrna; the Martin to Malta. ----- - Pona - stimuli', FEB. 7.—(From the Hampshire Tele graph.)—Extract from a letter received here from an °E lie. r of his Imperial Brazilian Majesty's ship Netherhov, Captain Taylor, dated Bahia, Dec. 1,1823 :—" We have re. fitted here after our four months' cruize in pursuit of the Portuguese squadron.

The Sun does not say a word. The most important revela tion which ham been made by ministers, says that Journal, is that of Mr. Canning which relates to Spain. We can state to the Courier that he is deceived, and that there is no question about propositions of mediation. (FROM Tile MESSENGER.) We have to announce the melancholy intelligence of the sudden death of Sir Thomas Maitland, Governor of the lonian Islands, at Malta, by apoplexy. According to letters from Corunna, 17th ult., the Master of a Coffee House, was arrested en account of seditious language against the House of Bourbon and the House of Bragmiza.
