108 GERMAN PAPERS. —New— CONSTANTINOPLE, Fro. 10. Vie accounts received in the beginning of Janu nrv, stating that Chorschmid Achmet Pacha had entered Aleppo, and subdued the rebels in that city, have not been confirmed. The Paella is still col lecting troops, that ho may be able, if necessary, to support by force his instruction to accomplish an amicable arrangement of the differences existing between him and the inhabitants of his Pachalick. VIENNA, MARCII 17. The intimate commercial connexion which has been established since the Ist January this year, between the kingdom of Poland and the Russian empire, is so important, that an outline of the par ticulars of the newly-adopted system must be wel come to our readers. The establishment of the tolls on the frontier of Russia, towards Poland, is will maintained, but only in respect to goods coming from or going to foreign countries, &e. ; for salt, tobacco, brandy, and playing cards, in every other respect Poland ceases to be considered as a foreign country. There is a free and uninterrupted pas sage across that frontier for, Ist, all the raw pro ductions of the two countries which are intended for the use of each other respectively, with the only condition of specifying them at the frontier, for statistical purposes; 2d, the manufacture. , and pro ductions of the industry of the two countries, but accompanied with certificates of origin; and those manufactured from the raw materials of the two countries respectively, free of duty ; those manufac tured from the raw materials furnished by other countries, upon conditions hereafter to be deter- mined. The Russian ministry of finance, and the Polish Government. will agree together on the most con venient stations for taking the export duty on Rus lion productions exported to foreign countries through Poland. To maintain the superintendence over the im portation of foreign manufactures through Poland into Russia, and at the same time increase the trade, and especially the fairs of Warsaw, it is or dered—l. That, to prevent fraud, the Russian chief board of customs is to receive from the Polish Government a complete catalogue (to be successively completed as circumstances require) of all Polish manufactories, with a statement of the place, the proprietor, the quality ani quantity of the goods manufactured, adding the stamp and mark of the manufacturers: but that (2) all goods coming from the Warsaw fairs to Russia shall have, for three years together, the abatement of ten copecs per ruble on paying the tatiff duty to the Russian cus tom-house nt Warsaw, and of five copecs per ruble on paying it at the Russian frotsOcr toll-house. 3. All Polish manufactured goat's, except from those parts which are too remote, shall be imported into Russia by way of Warsaw only, and have a certificate from the Russian board of customs. All the subjects of the two states are entitled to be admitted into the Guild or Companies of each other. Travellers from Russia to Poland, and vice versa, are subject to no other formalities than from one Government of the Russian empire to another. OFFENBACH, MARCH 22.

Authentic accounts Lave been received of the arrival of two vessels from Holland at Rio de Ja neiro, having a considerable number of the Swiss colonists, who were immediately sent to Santo where they ;you'd find every thing requisite for their new establishment.

Every thing indicated a desire of escaping if the rockets had placed their wcuri rity in danger, or if they had set fire to the merchant vessels, which were united or made fast to windward of their line of defence, formed by the Vetigatiza. Esau. ralda, Sehastiana, Resolution and Cleopatra, Trio:Maim, Pezuelo. and Maipo. The Resolution and Cleopatra, . as also the Castles, threw continually hot shot at us, fol lowing the advice of the Archbishop of Limo. The new preparations being completed yesterday evening. 1 ordered that the brigs of war should conduct the rafts 1 (rockets aiid mortars) to their position, and that the fire-ship commanded by Lieutenant Morgell should pro ceed to her destination, immediately there commencing to discharge the rockets, at which time I directed in line the squadron towards the eastern shore, witli a view to prevent the escape of the enemy. The brigs had rearce advanced within gun-shot of the enemy's vessels and batteries, when they commenced upon us a eery brisk fire, which greatly increased on the approach of the fire. ship Victoria. Being already within the reach of grape shot hum the batteries, and near the chain which sur rounds the enemy's vessels, and the water entering her hold in torrents, Lieut. Nlorgell set fire to her (all her rigging being cut away) and in tea minutes she blew up; which would have annihilated the naval force of Callao if there had been inure wind, so that the Victory could have passed the battery with greater velocity. 1' Waiting the explosion of the Victory, I had re tained the Gorgana ; but being nearly calm, I believed it useless to make a new attempt, seeing that the rock ets had no better effect this night than the first. The cause of this is already too palpable • s ome burst in con sequence of the tubes or cylinders being badly soldered. and others broke at the tail, having ottfortunately been made of a very knotty and brittle wood. 0 I cannot refrain from manifesting to you my regret at these unfortunate circumstances, aggravated by the 4alims which continually prevail in Callao. 1 have de -4 fined tel operate onowsdifferent plan, which I hope wt' produce a better effects, Captains Spry and Cnisbie, and LieutenantPrunier, of the brigs Galvarino, Artneano, and Pueyrredon, have conducted themselves with the greatest bravery. The damages which these vessels received in their spars were of little consideration, and are already repaired. " Lieut. Morgell, and two seamen that accompanied in the Victory, deserve for their valour a reward. The zeal and co-operation of Admiral Blanco are worthy of every praise. The captains, officers. marines, military, and marine troops, have all behaved with the greatest distinction. I have the honour of assuring you that I am, with the highest consideration of respect, &c. yours. " COCHRANE. " Col. Don Jose Ignacio Zenteno, Minister of the Marine of the State of Chili." THE QUEEN. Letters have been received in town from her Majesty the Queen of England, dated Rome, the 16th ultimo. Her Majesty complains of not having I received any messenger from Government, announc ing the demise of our late lamented Sovereign. Her Majesty states, that the Hanoverian Minister and British Consul, and all persons connected with the British Government, treat her with great indignity ; they continue to call her Princess Caroline of Bruns wick. Her Majesty also expresses dissatisfaction at the conduct of the Roman Government ; she had always a guard allowed her as Princess of Wales, but that has been refused her since she became Queen, because the British Government has not acknowledged her under that title. Her Majesty expresses a great wish to have Buckingham-house for her palace; she desires that the servants of the late Duke of Kent, or those in tl►e service of his Royal Highness the Prince Leopold, may be em ployed for her in preference to any others; and her Nlajesty'also desires, in the event of the refusal of Government to find her a palace, that a house may be taken for her near Dover. Her Majesty was to leave Rome on Monday, to proceed from thence to Pesaro, and from Pesaro to England, without delay. Her Majesty may be expected to arrive in a month or five weeks.

(Slimed) " C I. (ONSAEVI." In an article on the recent alarms, the Edinburgh Review has an article containing useful information respecting the plots, and ably examining the evi dence adduced at the several periods, and it observes, " If we shall ever live to see the country cuted of its truly mortifying, we may Pay, humiliating, pro• pensity to be the easy dupes of such panics, as often as any tottering Government finds its account in raising them, this salutary change can only be wrought by soberly reflecting on the past, recalling to mind the stories told, and examining these at a season when the panic having subsided; reason may be allowed to operate, and demonstrate their false hood ; or, at least, by showing that the event has disproved them. Nothing can be further from our intention than to deny that a general discontent has for some years prevailed through the country ; that it has been on the increase of late; that it especially nfects populous districts, like those where manufac hirers are spread ; that it is ready to be turned by factious and unprincipled demagogues to dangerous purposes; that when distress prevails, it is always most to be dreaded; and that to secure the peace of the State against its effects demands the vigilant care of the Executive Government. Whatever be the more remote origin of this spirit, we conceive flee load of taxation under which the community labours, to be the chief proximate cause of its in creased diffusion, to which we may add, the gene rally prevailing distrust of the Government. That the old law of the land was amply sufficient to cope with the disaffected, had it been administered by steady hands, and accompanied with the spirit of conciliation, we hold to be equally manifest ; and if the York trials of 1812—those of Derby—that of Cashman, &c. did not establish the sufficiency of the OLD LAW to meet conspirators, rebels, and libellers, will not the recent events at Leicester and at York carry conviction home to the minds of all, even to Ultra Loyalists?—Where, therefore, was the neces sity for the new laws, and can they, will they con ciliate discontent?" Letters from Dole state, that a horrible crime, attended with peculiar circumstances, has been com mitted at the village of Ougney. A woman, who was travelling with a considerable sum of money about her, stopped at an inn, and asked to remain there for the night. The mistress of the inn and her two sons immediately formed a plot to rob and murder her, and fixed upon the middle of the night to execute their crime. Their guest in the mean time became suspicious, either on account of the sum of money which she had, or by being struek with the badness of the physiognomy of her hosts, and could not conceal her apprehensions. In order to enenu. rage her, the mistress of the house promised to sleep with ber, telling her at the same time, that she would sleep inside. Midnight arrived, the two sons entered the room without a light, crept up softly to the bed-side, ascertained with their hands the position of the two women, andplunged a couple of daggers into the breast of the nearest of them.— The woman who was inside shrieked out, and the brothers started back with horror, perceiving that they had murdered their mother. It happened that she had fallen asleep, during which, the traveller, at the first noise she heard, sprung from the place she had occupied to the inside of the bed. The cul prits are in the hands of justice. FROM SATURDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE.
