'Last night, by an express from Calais, we received the important , intelligence, that the differences between the French Government and the Haytian Republic have been fivally adjusted. The latter will purchase the recognition of its independence by sn indemnity of 150 millions of francs (about six millions sterling), which will be divided amongst the old proprietors. We view this transaction wit!t soon satisfaction, u it gives us further and unquestionable evidence of the sincerity and soundness of the views of M. de Yrt.iat.e with regard to the New States which have arisen in the New World. After this measure, he will be in a con dition to press with effect upon the Spanish Government, the early ',crier:malice of that act of equal policy and justice by which the South American question will be relieved from all the difficulties that attach themselves to it, under the 6mm/statutes in which France is at present situated, in re lation to Spain. 64 CALAIS, ACOUST 11, 10 o'ctocor " The following has been received here:— " TY.I.EO44PHIC DESPATCLI FROM PARIS, DATED AUGEST 11. " Ar, arrangement has been concluded with St. Domingo, which will pay an indemnity of one hundred and fifty millions to the ancient French proprietors. The French Eq. and the merchandise which shall be imported under that flig, shall pay only half the duties on receipt of this despatch. The French vessels which shall sail for St. Do mingo must be sent under die white flag." The Paris Morning and Evening Papers of IVednestlay arrived yesterday. The state of the French Funds is the subject of 'Lading interest in that capital. The Acmes bad been considerably depressed. The Five per Cents. closed at loef. 30c..; the Threes at 73f. The Efate ascribes the decline entirely to the efforts of a party of speculators ; aril it therefore recommends the rentiers " to be on their guard against the snare which artifice is spreading for them." The Journal de Parse announces the formation of a cimp near Coblents. It will consist of 12,000 men, and will remain assembled for four weeks.

A great sensation was excited on the Stock Exchanges in consequence of expresses from Paris received this morn ing, announcing the decline of the French s per cents. to The effect of this intelligence was the immediate de cline of the English Funds from the closing price of yes terday to 69H for money, and 89U for the account ; 1 the time bargains at the latter part of the day being corn pleted at jl. This important intelligence, with reference to the plan of M. de Ville* was received on the money ' markets according to the views of the different parties who ' were interested in decrying or upholding it. The former considered this depression in French 3 per cents. as equi valent to a complete failure on the part of the Minister, and that his scheme from henceforward must be abandoned. He wa the promoter of it, not only driven out of the moneyNMtet, but they maintained that in prospcet is lie was driven out of his seat in the Cabinet by the breaking down of this his favourite project. On the other hand, the parties in support of the scheme declared That the de cline in this new Stock was unworthy of notice ; that the French fives were not above SO cents. worse; that the Minister was full of confidence at havin been relieved from the payment of so millions of Rentes; and, that he would be prepared to pay off the dissentients, n3w that ha was lightened of that portion of the debt, having, with the exception of the Bank of France, all the great mo neyed interest of Europe with him. If M. De Vil lele has the means of paying off tiro dissentients with as much facility-as this latter party asserts, he certainly does not possess the tact that we give him credit for; as the power that this assertion assumes lie possesses, we think, would have been used to s better purpose by so skilful a politician in the furtherance of an operation, the failure of which we know would destroy the comfort, if not the sta bility of M. De Villele's place in the Cabinet of the Tuileries. What ulterior operations he may resort to, to repair this financial disaster, we must leave to time to'disclose; but that it is a disaster, and that too of a serious nature to the French Minister's financial plans, we can at present have little doubt. There were no transactions in French Files, and the Three were reported at 731 74. Spanish Bolds bore an improved quotation again to-day, the old reaching 22A, and the new at Ilk. Greek Scrip was more knguid than yesterday, probably from the circumstance dia attention was principally drawn to Consols and French Renter. It was from 131 to I dis count. The great depression, however, in the Foreign Market was in South American Securities, Colombian Bonds declining to 831 1, and Mexican Scrip to 4 Si discount. It must be expected that a nation like our own, con taining ten millions of people, however enlightened it may will present at all times a great mass of depravity ; and . would be, therefore, most invidious to charge upon the national character what ought, in fairness, to be ascribed the degeneracy of our common nature, and to that moral debasement which is always to be found—and always was . all great and wealthy communities • the Creation of'' world. But with every leanin ndour, and itlt a disposition to make every of the tempta- AMU which are perpetually warping our nature to the wrong side, it is impossible to look Ms the manners and morals of this our age, without lamenting that the sltograali knowledge, and of political improvement, is not accom panied with' any adequate cultivation of those feelings of integrity, and that manliness of mind, which recoils from every thing mean and dishonourable, by which, as a nation, Ws ought to be distinguished. We are not among the number of those who are inclined to whine over the degeneracy of the age. Neither the moral or political history of the people of England—or indeed of any other people—will warrant our attributing more virtue to former times than to the present. Ignorance is the prolific parent of every sort of vice. The progress of knowledge must always bring with it a mere beneficent and enlarged morality; and, in spite of the admissions which we arc compelled to make, there is abundant testi mony that it has so done. We are governed, certainly, much more by reason than our ancestors were ; but advanced as we are in science, education, as applied to the practical training of the public mind and character, is but in its in fancy. At present we meet corruption more than half way. The condition of our forefathers was very different from our own, and their vices were of a different cast. The vast increase and diffusion of wealth within the last half century has multiplied without end all the excitements to fraud, and kindled every bad passion by which fortune can be sought or secured. The mercenary principles seem to have struck a much deeper root than formerly; fair dealing, which is the soul of confidence in all the transac tion of life, is lamentably on the decrease, and seems to be every hour wearing still faster away.

We received another letter from our correspondent et Leghorn, dated August I. We publish it without warranting its contents. The capture of Ibrahim Pacha has been confirmed tiy Captain Andre Thomas Ragusin, commanding the Austrian commercial brig called La Soegliatore, coming from Constantinople, who a,. rived on the 30th July in this port, and was boarded on the 6th (query, 18th N.S. or 26th), near Hydra, by a Greek man-of-war. the Captain of which told him that Ibrahim Pacha had been taken to Hydra. Capt. Couture, commanding the French cotnmereial btig La COnfiance, front Cyprus, which arrived this morning in the roads of Leghorn, has also declared that the capture of Ibrahim Pacha was known at Cyprus it the moment °Wilt departure. But neither of those Captains could give the particulars of the events in consequence of which Ibrahim Pacha bas been taken prisoner by the Greeks. The Milan Gazette of the Bth of August says, that on the 16th June, O.S. they observed from the ramparts of Napoli di Romania a retrograde movement of the Egyptian army. Towards midnight the Government received the news that Colocotyoni had attacked the rear of the Egyptians, and killed 300 men. On the 17th the ene my was already out of sight of the fortress. On the 20th it was that Ibraham Pacha had sustained fresh losses, near Tigea. Colo cotroni was then at the head of 16,000 men, On the 24th, infor mation was received that the Egyptians had sustained a new defeat, at Phloros, and that he was surrounded in the defiles, so that it will be difficult fur hint to get back to the coast of illesaenia. General Roche, who was sent to Greece by the Committee at Paris, to ob tain information respecting the state of affairs, writes from Argus, of the 2d July, ,Ol .k. Poloponnesus had risen in a Tease, and that the Egyptian army was annihilated. Never was a popular movement more terrible and more just, for the life or death of a population of 400,000 souls was at stake. PARTS, A no. The Meniteur of this morning contains the following article. Yesterday there was a considerable fall in the Three per Cents. No event, no political apprehension, can have caused it; we do not even see a financial cause. Those who on the sth of this month converted their Five per Cents at 102 f. 50e. cannot be forced now to sell their Three per Cents. at 72f. On the other hand, those who had converted at the last liquidation colter, which they possess only by means of reports, can neither be found to sell them, since the price of the reports is not such as to render the continuation of the operation onerous. Besides, it would not be till the epoch of the liquidation, which is yet remote, that the latter would be under the necessity of sustaining loss so great es that to which they would seem voluntarily to condemn themselves now. The sellers, without motive, will therefore soon have disposed of (Ecoat) the ltents which they part with at so great loss, and the' stock will then resume the station which the state of the finances, and the solidity of the credit of France assigns it.

The Dublin Correspondent of Tuesday states, that an ad journment to November of the New Roman Catholic As sociation will he moied on Saturday; and .adds, " but we have been told that they are not determined on resuming their sittings."—TheAssociation has certainly been a failure, and its founders must be disappointed at their plan not having been more successful. If the great body of the Catholics only knew how much their associations, and the intemperate harangues and disputes of their leaders, injure the cause they pretend to advocate, they would give neither their support. 1 I IVe understand that a steam ves se l, of 800 tons register, is to be launched from W. and R.

Bailey, Missionary from Ceylon, then gave his own testimony to the success which had attended the efforts of Christians in that Island,' containing a population (done million souls, and enumerated several instances of real conversion among the natives which had come under his immediate notice. In conclu sion, he read a letter from a converted heathen to himself, which was strikingly marked with gratitude for the know ledge of that Saviour to whom he had been brought. A liberal collection was made at the door for the purposes of the institution ; as well as at the churches of Wyke, Rath pole, and Preston, after sermons by the Rev. Robert Phelips, and the Rev. J.

This Theatre continues to be nightly crowded, and is frequently honoured by the visits of persons whose rank in life has heretofore usually prevented them from witnessing the performance of our minor theatres. The grand at traction consists in the extraordinary feats of Monsieur Gouffe, who is unquestionably the most astonishing tumbler we have ever beheld. A piece has been produced for the purpose of enabling him to imitate the tricks of a baboon, and he has succeeded to the utmost extent of his wishes; it may be but " a pitiable ambition," and he may be " a fool who uses it," it has nevertheless its full effect upon the audience, who appear as much delighted as as. tounded at his screams, his leaps, his gestures, and above all, his " running round the gallery and boxes, supported only by the gold rim." Mr. Bryant, who is in our estima tion equally unrivalled, as the imitator of an Irishman—. of the two, certainly a more enviable gift—sings some excel lent and humorous comic songs ; and the Melodrama, Number One Thousand and One, by Mr. Dibdin, is very popular.
