This was the osidence of several firemen, adduced by the indivi deals who were anzions to ihtablish a new Company; and be recollected it was the remark of one of these witnesses, that a pail full of *lair at first was worth a pond full afterwards.

The Count addressed himself to the Emperor of Russia, es heir of the Grand Decby of Oldenbargh, in which his states ate situated, in Me of the extinction of the family of the yoeng Duke, who is the Emperor's nephew.

LONDON: lATIIIPAT• NOVEMBER 28, 1818. New York and other American Papers to the Ist inst. reached us this forenoon. Congress was to meet on the 16th lost. The American hatelligetsce may be expected speedily to become of a very inte nding character. The Papers are still speculating iu anticipation upon the subjects of the Patti DENT'S Message, which, it appears, has many topics of im portance to include. The following extract relates to other again:— [YEW YORK DAILY ADVERTISER, OCT. 31.1 Extract of a letter communicated to the Baltimore Cantor, dated Island of Margaretts, Sept. G:— Oer military exertions are now , paralysed by the swell of waters, but oar armies and those of the ens• my are streegthestios themselves for tbeensalag cam pers. In the mein time there has entered is Guiana *ad this Island a great number of armed vessels.. The inhabitants here wry on the war with the greatest terror, notwithstanding the resistance of the Royalists. This moment we have io our port eleven prises captered by the islanders. Our forces are Ah ployfid es follows t.General Pees, in Apure, with 3500 cavalry and 700 infantry--General Zarttaa and Ildonap in Pat and St. Diego, with 2500 horse men. Gea. Sedepo in Chargnavaana with 1000 ca valry—Generals !Marino and Bermudas, in Comm, withs6oo et tallanes—Gen.Rosu io Barcelona, with 1000.—‘411 the Sepreme Chief in Golan., with 4000 infantry, who are increasing every day by new re. crest its ; of seem we hope, without the least doubt, oar fate will be earned, sad our liberties achieved before the year expires. All these divisions, wept those at Cases. and Delicate's*, will act tgaisst the enemy at the enuring campalgs f se we shall have in our armies 7000 ("very, MOO infantry, and a cot responding artillery lately arriVed frow England. The European Congress having dosed the important bosiaess for which it met, namely, taking the best securities which could be pt fer the payment of the sums c►irged upon France, std writing tong.r♦inded Protocols upon the' subject s interesting ooiy to those •.~.._ LTESMAY: who have to give and receive, the accounts from Aix- Ja-Cgspelle have now only en expiring littered. We give Rasiiter letter to-darfrour 'that plat% which chiefly relates to the prolongation of time Awed to ,rreoce,Und through her to the great Wakiugtitioe se, to Make good their pecuniary engagements ; not, It seems, from doeoments drawn up en this %ob ject for he convenience of France end the bankers oafy, bet for the general accommodation of the other European States, and great commercial in terests, ail of which would oo doubt be affected by a too rapid absorption of money from France. Hence springs the second article of the new arrangemeot, which allows the Banking-hoases to make good their engagements, not in or through Frannie only, (which ' I would draw much of the specie of Lerope to Paris, 1 1 as a centre, merely to be from abeam dispersed again,) but by bills of exchange upon ether cities and large towns. The prolongation, however, of the term of payment by France, from nine to 18 months, seems • prospect which might excite cons'. durable speculation. In that time what events may happen !' what changes may come to pass! what re verses may take place ! In 18 months the debtor may become the creditor; and they whosow reckons their thrones as stable*. the Alps, may be fugitives in fo reign ceentries, begging tango sod sobiletione boo ILP t`eople they have trodden down and disperied. • The letter which we Insert from Aix-la-Chspelle concludes with the mention of o report which had reached that place of Brussels having been thrown into a tumult, by some pretty strong expressions of the dissatisfaction of the People at conduct of the Members of the Holy Alliance, who lied thought proper to show themselves in the capital of the No. theriends. Except the account we had two days" ago, of some persons having been arrested and exa mined at Brussels, charged with an intention to blow up the Town Hall in which the Royal Family of the NxTnxßLssDs, the Emper . or And Empress Dowager of RUSSIA ) the Doke of WaranGTon, the British Ambassador, and many other English Nobility were assembled at a ball, there is no men tion in the Flanders Papers of any each event. L The Paris Papers have reached us to Thursday last. The Five per Cents. were on Wednesday at 69, and the Coarse of Ea:hinge on London, at three months, 23, 15. The Doke of WaLtISOTOII was espeeted to arrive in Paris on Thenday and it was added that Lord CAtTLERZAOU might probably take that capital in his way from Aiz-la.Chapelle. The official part of the Moniteor contains to Ordi nance, fixing the rate of the pensions granted to retired teachers of the Royal Military Schools. The Moniteur of the 24th contains the 011cial Doe*. ments of the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle, which we have already laid before our Readers : they are simply given to the French Public in an °Mehl form, widest a single lino of rannairk.. Tbe French Minister at War is busily employed la establishing echos!. of mutual instruction throughout the Army. It is said, that before the Ist of February each corps dames will have one of these schools.— The Doke of ANGOULEIE was expected at WIZ on the 23d instant. Immediately on his arrival under the walls of the citadel, he was to be p►esent at a feigned attack on that tomes,. The next day, he ,was to proceed to Thionville. The Russian General OUDOIS passed through Metz on the 20th, and Rained the head of his colamu of troops, which had thee reached Saarebreck. Mails from Holland and liamborgli have arrived, the contents of which are in some degree of im• perfume. The advice. from Rolland have lately been of a very unpleasant description. The embar rassment and confusion in money concerns. created at Amsterdam and Rotterdam, by the speculations of the Merchants and Bankers in foreign securities, have bad serious consequences upon the prosperity and credit of smseral houses of respectability. Two more Bassking.heeses in Amsterdam are stated to have failed for large sums. The etching@ had fallen one and a half per cent. hi one day, and monied concerns are described as having suffered a complete stagnation. The private advice., however, represent matters as wearing an improving aspect. By the help of the Government and the grist Capitalists, coafideocn was beginning generally to revive; though with regard to commerce, it was deemed probable that the stag nation in the Markets would not be altogether re moved before the beginning of the. nest year, the pe riod when the spring orders usually arrive from Ger many. A letter tromp( otterdern, of the 24th instant, states, that by the timely interference of the Go vernment, and some of the principal Capitalists, the embarrassments lately felt in the money-market at Amsterdam have nearly subsided, without any other consequences than the failure of a few secondary houses, that have been dealing largely in those fo reign Government securities which have lately under gone so remarkable a depression. The accounts from Amsterdam itself are less flattering, as they announce one Mere to a considerable extent, though not perhaps in an establishment of the kit consequence. The house named is that of De JONG; VAN DER Zoo, end Co., Bankers, who had become involved by the accommodations afforded to speculators in the fonds, end the late unexpected scarcity of money, which produced a ge. octal run upon them at a time when they Were least ,able to meet it. This scarcity of money, it is well , knottily has seriously affected the commerce of the at ~~ -~~_.; . guilders (or Flanders, and double that lam f or Holland, should be employed in discounting bale exchange and in reducing the rate o! latesest. T h . improvement that has taken place in the atnne f . market of Amsterdam may be stated generally et sboat two per cent. on every kind of Governgy securities. • Ciskatiar Vaastis: sod Asiatic Mirrors to the t 74 'of Joe lodises., hive been received.

The rumour which we mentioned yesterday, of Lord hitmonAva's intention to refits from tiro Ord. since Department, is father con*rmed. Tio certain state of his Lordship's health is assigned N the cause, but it is more p►obable that this *map, intuit is deemed necessary to provide a good place for the Duke of WELLINGTON. We have out heard whether Lord MULGIAYI retires upon a posies ikaal to his 'Wary, as is sow the custom when 4 Ma Bites up an office for which be has been 1414 well paid, and when the duties of that office had become a sinecure. One of our Morning Catersporaries says, " We are not without hopes, that the salary of this office may, at least in time of peace, be sand to the Public, by the atnalpmetion of the dirties with those of some other bn►eau." Opt* *hat groands these hopes are founded, wear@ at alias to conceive. 'There Is certainly nothing in th'• cailict of the pre.. sent Administration, in rowel to the reduction of steles. Places and enormoes Sistearre•, which taws this expectation of economy, eitens it alP)eld prevail at their hands, at least, as a solaatary Nei to the Public. A very numerous and respectable Meeting of the East London District, was held yesterday at , 11. City of London Tavern, to receive the Report of the Committee appointed to investigate the alleged coo. impel' , of the East London and New River Water- ' works Companies. A full report of the proceedings at the Meeting, which will be found in our Paper, of this day, is highly interesting to the Public. The evils so justly complained of, we are glad to ceire, are likely to meet with a salotary check, by. the measures intended to be adopted for this pupa,' and few subjects are more entitled to Legislative at. teation than the abases to which the Pablic are sob. joeted by these Monopolies.
