Yesterday afternoon, the Captain-General ordered several persona to leave the City in twenty-four hours, and Lt, go to such places as should be assigned to them. Passports for Casteltersol were sent for thi' purpose to 31. Pero!. the former Political Chief of Girrrne ; for Seism', to 31. Bray, Ex-Governor of :In Citadel; for Vich, to the brother of 31. Bray, Ex-Adjutant of the fortress of Mont joui : for Mora tle Ebro, to Al. Pingarron, Ex-Commandant of the Custom-house Officers; for Mantels, to M. hlontera, Ex- Treasurer of that rr wince. and Ex-Commandant of the National Militia of Barcelona, No. 3; fur Pratt de Llutanes, to Al. Mon tero, junior, Ex-Treasurer of the district of Gironne ; for 'Warm to M. Aguirre, Ex-Commandant of the Foreign Legion ; for Pons, to AI. Torregroaa, Ex-Lieutenant of the same Lgion. The care which has been taken to designate the employment which they held under the Constitution is an actual sentence of death. From the spirit which prevails in that province. it is cer tain, if they have Vie good fortune to escape assassination in their Ijourney, that they still be murdered immediately on their arr i v a l at , their destination. It was in vain that these wretched men addressed I 31. de Campo Sagrado begging him to defer the execution of so terrible an order. That General appeared deeply affected at the measure; but he intimated that strict orders had been transmitted to him to see it immediately executed. Ile added that he had no ground of complaint against the petitioners. These unfortunate men addressed themselves afterwards to General Iteisset, itnplor in.( his interference, and soliciting passports to quit the kingdom. The result of this proceeding is not yet known. IFrom the C'onstitutiuttne/i PARIS. JULY 22. A letter from Lisbon, of the bth July, which we have received to-day. contains the following details. The hints received from the courier of our Embassy at Paris left much uncertainty in the public mind. Confused reports were even spread of certain seditious cries uttered by the 4th and 7th regi ments ; but a commercial express has since fortunately brought a complete account of the intelligence from Brazil • and the corvette Lealtlade, also coming from Rio Janeiro , ha s no longer left us the least room to doubt concerning an event which fulfils our most ar dent hopes, and is likely won to put an end to our unhappy dis sensions. It is impossible to describe the transports of pub lic rejoicing, and the stupor of the small portion of the dis affected. The Count de Brabacena, the Minister of War, caused tb's happy news to be published at head-quarter., and the enthusiasm of the army corresponded with that of the nation. The Apostolical party, who for some time had been loaning the most horrible projects, who loudly predicted the speedy retreat of the English fleet front the Tagus, were struck as by . a clap of thunder. Government ordered the immediate publication of all the decrees of the Emperor, to the great mortification of the Apos tolical party, who can no longer flatter themselves with being able to prevent the promulgation of the Charter. The whole population is impatient to hear it, and the greatest irderest is manifested on all hands. The entrances to the Royal printing offices are obstructed by an immense crown, waiting impatiently for the first copies of this memorable Act. emanating from a legitimate Sov , reign, and des tined to heal all the wounds of the country. The Count of Porto Lento, Minister of State, and one of the new Peers of the kingdom, has been seriously ill for Annie days. The heads of the Apostolical party appear resigned. Their ranks are perceptibly thinning. At tempts are said to have been made to excite the Amarante to make some efforts, but they continue quiet. The disaffected find no support any where amidst a happy people. Fears have also been suggested to us on the score of the Holy Al. liance ; but will it infringe its own declarations? 11111 it trample on that legitimacy which it is in the habit of invoking ? Much has been said also of the discontent of the French Ca binet; but how could the Ministers of a constitutional King, who himself gave the great example which Don Pedro has followed, de clare themselves with any decency the protectors of despotism un der the tegis of legal liberty by which they are covered ? The last hope of the disaffected would be in Spain, and in the new Ambas sador with whom she threatens us but we know the means of the latter, and Spain has no right to impose upon us her anarchy, her revolt, and all her miseries. All will be vain ; we will be Coned tutionaliste. It is true, however, that the amnesty appears more formidable to the apostolica intriguers than the constitution itselr. 'they say it is still possible to alter the latter, but there can be no quibbling af out the funnier. They are really much to be piti, d ; they are now weaned from proscription and reve..ee. The sight of public harmony is the greatest punishment which can be inflicted on them. .VLETJNGS Or CREDITORS. LONDON LIST. _ AT TXX COVILT 0/ COM 1111•111 . OX IPXIDAT XBZT. V. Barker.

But the whole system should be modified at the present moment. The period in which we live is one which calls for economy in charity ; and in a scene of public distress like the pre sent, why should we persist in sending Biblas and Mis sionaries abroad, when men are dying at home, leaving all hopes, present or future, for want of bodily subsistence? In order to be truly charitable, there ought to be a scale of importance for every object, and one object ought not to be magnified beyond its due proportion. Would the member of a Bible Society act wisely in sending a starving man a Bible instead of a loaf? Would he act wisely, even for those purposes which he has in view, if he did not supply first the more immediate want, and turn afterwards to those other objects which can only be accomplished while the lamp of life continues to burn ? We do not hesitate, therefore, in saying that the funds of Bible and Missionary Societies ought at this moment to be appropriated to the relief of the distress of our own population, instead of going, as they do in many cases, to the support of enthu siastic field-preachers. Let us not be understood as wish ing to throw disrespect on these institutions: quite the contrary. We respect the religious feelings of all men, and we sincerely approve the doctrines of the Protestant faith ; but we cannot approve the misdirection of their zeal. Religion has been useful even in a political point of view, in supporting the poor under their miseries and restraining them from illegal violence. We hope that the efforts which have been used for this purpose will not slacken, but will be increased ; and we wish them every Brims., consistent with our principles, and with the interests of the Established Church. The regular Clergy will not fall slicrt in this respect of the zeal of the sectarians, and their efforts to our minds are more according to knowledge. Without in anywise compromising the faith of their forefathers, they suffer circumstances to weigh with them, and attend to the spirit more than the letter of scriptural instruction. To the enthusiast in religion, this may ap pear lukewarmness ; to us it evinces sound judgment and true religion. Those who direct the immense establish ments connected with religious dissent, however disinclined they maybe to relax, even for a single hour, in their efforts 1 to increase Missionary Associations and Bile Societies, would do well to consider whether it might not be ad vantageous, in such a case as the present, to discharge at least a large portion of their supernumerary preachers and others receiving stipends from their funds, in order to ap ply then to the alleviation of distresses, the continuance of which would remove so many from all chance of receiving benefit from their spiritual exhortations. CITY, TvEsDAY EVENING. This being a holiday at the Bank, and the Committees of the Home and Foreign Stock Exchanges having closed the doo.s of their respective temples, the inferior deities that could not, or would not, take a holiday, congregated under the Quadrangle of the Royal Exchange, and pur sued their avocations with their wonted vigour. Consols, during the day, were done at IV ; but, when the dinner bell rang upon 'Change, they could hardly be quoted at more than 761 . . In South American Securities there is little or no varia tion, Columbian being at 32 3 / 4 to 33, and Mexican at 1.7 3 / 4 .tf3. There has been a renewed activity in Brazilian Mine Shares, and various fluctuations took place, inasmuch as they opened at 12, went down to 9, rose to 15 2 and left off at 12 premium, the price at which they commenced. There does not appear to be any reason for these flights, beyond the mere fancy of the speculators. Exchanges vary very slightly from the course of last week. Deseeeenes FROM GREECE. We have just had an in terview with a Greek naval officer, who arrived this morn ing from Hydra, overland, being the bearer of despatches to the Greek Committee. He states that Tripolizza has been retaken from the Turks by storm, on which occasion the Egyptians lost a great number of men. Admiral Miaulis has destroyed two Turkish frigates in the mouth of the Dardanelles. He also adds, that since the establishment of the new Government, affairs have taken a very favourable turn, and Admiral Miaulis was waiting, with his Reet, to join that of Lord Cochrane, whose approaching arrival has caused great joy. The Greeks are determined to conquer or die.—Brilish Traveller. SPAlN.—Extract of a private letter of the 10th instant, from Madrid:—" The events in Portugal have thrown our Cabinet into such embarrassment, that instructions have been sent to the Spanish Ambassadors at Paris, Vienna, and St. Petersburgh, to ascertain what are the views of those Courts upon the posture we should assume with re spect to Portugal. The report of these three Ambassadors, and that of the Special Commission appointed to that effect by the King, will decide the course which our Government will pursue towarde . Lisbon. Meanwhile our affairs at home go on no better. as plot succeeds to plot.

Esq., Captain of his 3lnjesty's ship Gloucester. their feelings of gratitude to hint, the officers, seamen, and marines, under his command, belonging both to that ship, and to his Majesty's steam-vessel Meteor, for the eminent services rendered by them, on that day, in removing from the harbour, the ships, lighters and craft, which, but for their efforts, would, in all probability, have been consumed by the flames, to the great detriment of the British trade at this port ; and, further, to declare the obligations of the Factory to their gallant countrymen, for subsequently (after the danger from the fire was at an end) aiding so effectually in bringing back to their proper moorings the various vessels, which otherwise must have remained longer exposed to the dangers of the open road stead. The Treasurer is desired to request, that Captain Horton will have the goodness to communicate these sentiments to the officers, seamen, and marines, under his command. 2. That the British Factory feel a pride in reflecting, that the services rendered on that day, and subsequently. by Captain Hor ton, the officers and men under his command, were not confined to the rescue of British shipping and property alone, hut were equally extended to all other shipping and floating property ex caat the time to similar danger. Such conduct is well calcu to excite general admiration ; and the Factory cannot but glory in the example thus afforded, of British officers and seamen being ever ready, in whatever part of the world they may be, to make their services conducive to the public goad. 3. That Capt. Horton be requested, through the medium of the Treasurer, to do) the British Factory the honour of accepting of it piece of plate (to be prepared in England), with an appropriate inscription ; and, further, that (if consistent with the regulations of his Britannic Majesty's naval service) Captain Horton will permit them to place at his disposal the sum of one hundred and fifty guineas, to be distributed as he may think best amongst the petty officers, seamen, and marines, under his command.

Syst—l have the honour to inform you that a' a meeting of the British Factory at this place, held yesterday, I was directed to communicate to you the high sense they entertain of your volun tary and meritorious exertions on the evening of the 9th inst., and I conceive that I cannot express their wishes more effectually th m in their own words. I have, therefore, the honour of transmitting to you a copy of the Resolutions unanimously agreed to on that occasion and I do so with the more pleasure, as I am convinced that these sentiments are not confined to the Britith factory alone, but are the feeling. of every individual connected with the trade at this place ; all being fulty sensible that had it not been for the prompt and well-directed assistance, which you, Sir, afforded to the shipping, the greater part would have been destroyed, and the consequences, in other re spects, have been more disastrous than can, even now, be contem plated without shuddering. With every sentiment of respect and regard, I have the honour to be, Sir, Your mos; obedient servant, (Signed) JAMES LIDDELL, jun. Treasurer. To Joshua Sydney Horton, Esq. Captain of his Britannic Majesty's ship Gloucester. BUAS lA. Extract of a letter dated St. Petersbnrgh, June 26, 1826 : It is a dangerous thing to write any letters from hence, on poll helm or any subject but mere matters of business, as every packet is opened at the post-office ; and therefore I have not been able till now, when an oppoetunity offers of sending this by yes, to give you any news of what is doing here. The newspapers will have informed you that the trial of the conspirators is still going on ; but as in this country all such affairs are done with closed doors, the public are not permitted to know anything of the proceedings, and it is only in whispers that the truth is allowed now and then to escape. The fact is now placed beyond all question that the plot had existed fur several years; that it had the most extended 'ramifications throughout the army ; that the secret was so well kept, and the conspirators so faithful to one another, that no discovery was made of their designs--when the death of Alexander, and the unlooked for occurrence of Constantine's refusing to reign, made them pre maturely begin to act, and caused them to fail. Still their success or failure seems to have depended on the merest accident. Had any one of them had the hardihood to send a pistol-ball through the Emperor Nicholas, as they did through Miloradovitch, the day was theirs. Seldom can it happen that the fate of an empire is to be decided by the personal conduct of a single man; but on this occasion the presence of mind and intrepidity of Nicholas alone turned the scale. He threw himself into the midst of the rebellious troops, addressing them by turns with menace+ and intreaties, aed employed every art to win them to his side. For some time all his efforts were unavailing. Not a single regiment could be prevailed on to declare fur him, until at length a battalion of the Guards was gained over, the minds of the soldiers having been moved by the natural and earnest eloquence of the Emperor. They were drawn up before the Palace, when Nicholas, taking his eldest son in his arms, rushed among them, and, appealing to them by all they held most dear, assuring them of his lave of his country, and his attach ment to the army. he called on them to fire on himself and the heir to the throne, and choose as their successor, if they could eny where find him, a man more devoted to the welfare and glory of Russia. The soldiers shed tears at this ; they could no longer resist, and serene to be true to him. Their example was followed by one or two more regiments ; but notwithstanding that, if the conspirators had acted with any promptitude, the victory would have rested with them, as the rebel troops resisted all the lukewarm attacks of the infantry sent against them, and it was not till the artillery played on their ranks that they began to yield. There seems to have been little wisdom in the designs of the con spirators, and they appear to have been in no way adapted to the present condition of Russia. All the slaves were at once to be d'- dared free—those degraded and ignorant peasants, that in mind and habits are little raised above the lower animals, were. in a mo ment, to be let loose, without any previous training, and a Consti tutional Government to he proclaimed, without there being any de merits of which it could be formed. The plan was obviously anti national!, as society is as yet constituted here, for there are but two classes—the nobles and their slaves; and the wealth of the former consists chiefly in the number of their vassals. With the progress of wealth and civilization, a third class will arise, and then freedom may be established. Among the conspirators are some young enthusiasts, who had be nevolent intentions, but the others appeared to be actuated by am bitious and sordid views, and pillage and murder would have at tended their success. These would-be Catilines have shown great must of resolution, and have, in the most cowardly manner, revealed their pion', and betrayed their associates. About a dozen of them are expected to be shot, and the rest will be banished to Siberia. We have been a goad deal deceived in England as to the charac ter and conduct of the Emperor .elexander. Of late years he seems to have become very indolent, to have given himself up to indulgence and sensual pleasures, and to have neglected the cares of Onvernntent, so that great abuses had crept in, and the peculations and oppression of the authorities and men in office had occasioned great discontent. In proof of his indolence, lam assured that he had nut signed any of the documents and requisite decrees from the 4th of July last to the time of his death. His successor is the very reverse of this. He appears to possess great force of character, is endowed with great bodily and mental activity—sleeps and eats little—is fond of domestic life, and being tenderly attached to his wife, is faithful to her—and the rapidity of his movements and con stant occupations from four in the morning, would make him a le gitimate king, such as Burke required, who should be constantly on horseback. There was a gratifying sight here the other day to Englishmen, when the Duke of Devonshire, accompanied by his suite, conshting of Lori Morpeth, Mr. Cavendish, the Honourable Mr. Dundas, Mr. Fore, and Mr. Townsliend, went to Court in all the pomp and ceremony that rank and wealth can purchase. The elegance of the state carriages and harness, with the beauty of the English home, and the splendid liveries, attracted greatly the admiration of the Russians. Nothing can surpass the friendly disposition and deli cate atteutione which the Emperor liason every occasion manifested towards his Grace. Sonic of the gentlemen of the suite have not yet arrived from Stockholm. A terrible tire happened three days ago at Cronstadt, which threatened for some time the destruction of the whole of the town and the arsenal ; and all the merchant Vessels in the harbour would have been burnt, but for the exertions of the officers and sailors of the Gloucester, 71, who succeeded, with the assistance of the Eng lish steam-boats, in towing them outside of the mole, at a secure distance from the flames. The loss of property has been immense. The general belief is, that the fire was the work of the enemies of the Government, and may be considered as an indication of the hatred and discontent which pervades men's minds. The more probable cause designed is, that the fire was the act of some despe rate persons implicated in the nefarious transactions which have lately been brought to light at Cronstadt. For a long series of years it had been the practice there, it it said, to sell the Govern ment shires, sails. hemp, rigging, &c. in a clandestine manner, and the henry was divided among the employers, who in this way added to their scanty salaries. The present Emperor determined to put a stop to the system of robbery, and Admirals, Captains, and M or chants, were arrested, and the magazines of the latter were shut up, with padlocks and seals affixed to all the doors. There the tire broke out, and thus some of the traces of the peculations were removed. Be this as it may, it is clear that Nicholas lies a difficult game to play. He is aware of this, and has said that lie may attecnrnb, but lie is resolved to persevere. Count Atalochef, of whom, and hie military colonies, the verbose Dr. Lyal has Raid so much, I find universally detested. The Laneasterien schoola, In the interim, are generally suppressed. More of this hereafter. The extraordinary number of two hundred and twenty seven persons have claimed to be admitted to the freedom of this city at the next Council-Ilouse meeting for that purpose.—Coveutry Mercaty. ii ----;:---;---;`" • r): : , , . 7e-,11 :,- , _i '.- -.,:: . . 1 . 4 ! .:-. , .1•' --.

Advices from St. Petersburg to the 6th inst. state, but not in an official manner, that sentence had keen pro nounced upon the late conspirators, and that Leven only had been condemned to death. ' The Emperor Nicholas, duly considering what has passed as a lesson which n o Sovereign should despise or neglect, is doing every thing in his power to remove the abuses, which, if they did not occasion, at least in some measure justified, in the eyes of the conspirators, the attempt in which they ventured their fortunes and their lives. In order to render the proposed superintendence of the Association over the administration of justice unnecessary, he has decreed :- 1. That all the Civil Governor of the Empire shall he enjoined by a Circular to demand of all Judicial Tribunals, within their re. spective provinces, the most prompt decision of causes, especi a ll y of those which affect the lives of the accused. 2. That the Attorneys General of each Government shall wat t h over the strict execution of the Imperial will t and if they should find the Judges guilty of negligence, they shall immediately report them to the Minister of Justice, who shall communicate extracts of those reports every month to the Emperor. 3. That the Governor of Smolensk° shall be reprimanded for the dilatory manner in which the Tribunals of that province try Lbs causes brought before them. GREEK PIRATES. Extract of a letter, dated Malta, June 26 :—" The Sy. bille arrived here on Saturday, after having had a serious affair with two Greek pirates off Candia, the crews of which got on shore and attacked the Sybille's boats with such impetuosity, that 12 officers and men were killed, and 29 wounded. Of the latter, an officer, Lieut. Tapper, and three men, have died since their arm ival here. The first Lieutenant, Gordon, had three balls lodged in him ; and a Midshipman, Mr. Edmonstone, had his chin shot away ; another Midshipman, and I believe the Assistant Surgeon, were killed in the engagement. The pirate vessels were destroyed, and a great number of the watts killed. The piracies in the Levant have become most alarming, for the Greeks attack all vessels, and frequently maltreat the crews." GERMAN PAPERS. FRANKFORT, JOLT (EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM SMYRNA. JUNE IN.)._ So long as the English continued to pour millions into the coffin of the Greek nation, the English Hag was Tenet sled in all these mess ; since they have suspended their subsidies, the Greeks treat them no better than other nations. For this month past all English vessels that have arrived here from the ports of E giant have teen pillazed, their Captains insulted, ill treated, robbed of their poi. sate property, their money, and even their clothes. All the Eniti.h ships of war stationed in the Levant are gone to pursue tliccipitates, who, in general, cruise between Cape er!)ro a id Antis), b. eisise at this season this passage is the most frequented by vessels entire from Europe. The son of the English Consul here had on hoard one of these ships valuable article.. of hens( hold furniture, which he had purchased in London for 211,000 piasties ; the Greeks hays taken them all. Commodore Hamilton is g. ne to Syra, where the pirates generally deposit their booty. The other s! ips of war wlll proceed to the ports which are known to be the retreats of the pirates. We learn from Syra, by accounts datt'd the rith, thit Con mu tore Hamilton had met, near St. George di Fehiro, ninceen veste s full of pirates, known by the name of Liappi (b entlitti of Rome ha), commanded by Vasso Bracovich, of the Rude d-3C mom, and by one Gusciotti, a Rometiot. These baneLt i, age, liatio4 ruined Zea Andros, Tasoo Schero and Schiatto, stripp d the it hs. bitants, and committed a thousand atrocities and hurt ib'e eztirtss-s, were on their way to go and pillage some o her isla• ds. otsms. dote Hamilton has taken them all to Napoli di Romania, to be brought to trial.

STUTGARD, JI'T.Y 15. His Royal Highness Prince Frederick Christian, of Peonnurk, set out yesterday for Switzerland. AIJOSNURGA, JULY 18. The Supplements to the Aligrateine Zitringof the 17th and 18th July. contain a very long and circumstantial account of the disorder which ended in the death of his Majesty the Emperor Alexander, translated from the original Latin of Sir James \Ville, his Neje , . ty's Physician, and signed oleo by Dr. Stoffregen. His Majesty, it seems, refused for some days to take any medi. nine. and appears to have had a particular objection to leeches, which he persisted in prohibiting for two days after they had been judged absolutely necessary to save his life. Under date of 14th Nov. (26 . h) we find his Majesty had passed a tolerable night, but he refused leeches, and Dr. W. began to fear putrid fever. His Majesty. however, got up and shaved himself. " When he had lain down again," rays Dr. W. " he called me and attempted to speak some words, in which a certain confusion of ideas wan per ceptible. He desired to speak to me, and said, •My friend, whet an action ! IWhat a frightful action !' " This state of the mind continued about a minute—he, at the same time, castat terrible look on me, and it seemed to me to be the first sign of incipient delirium. How the emmians of the mind operate in producin; diseases I leave others to judge, but it is more than probable that they are among the causes of the disease. On one of the preceding days his Majesty said to me. • 1 al.h you antilil direct your attention to my nerves, for they are in very great disorder.' I replied, • I bolieve this happens to Sovereigns erste frequently than to other men.' His Majesty answered, ' And in these times I have more than ever reason to experience " Though there were no positive indications of imminent danger except continual and heavy sleep, which the Doctor judged to be as dangerous as constant waking, because it gives reason to fear too great an accumula.ion of bloosi on the brain, he wished to use several external applications, such as mustard plasters, and above all leeches, but they were refused with displeasure. " Firmly convinced of the advantage of leeches (le says), I implored his Majesty :o allsw me to use them, but unhappily, in vain, I received for an. ewer—' I will not; leave us.: I will not be disturbed. Do not torment me with your continual entreaties. I know very well what hurts Inc or does me good : I only ask repose, solitude, and trim. quillity. 1 submit to the will of the Almighty, and to my consti tution.' At two o'clock in the afternoon the fever fit was more violent than on the preceding days., At eight o'clock his Majesty, contrary to the advise of his physicians, sat up, and fainted, but aeon recovered. Various medicines were offered, but the patient would not take a drop or a grain. " November 15th (27th), the symptoms early in the morning were very bad, and his Majesty in imminent danger, pulse 120, hut no delirium. Her Majesty the Empress ordered me to announce to the Monarch the approaching end. Oh, unhappy that lam ! shat an office ! NI hen his Majesty asked me, •Is it come to that ?' replied, " Yes, indeed," and procoeded to particulars. At five in the morning his Majesty took the Sacrament, Hitherto his Ma jesty had rectified to take medicine; now, at the request of his Confessor, and convinced of his danger. he consented ; but alas ! it was too live." The Doctor relstes the means he employed. among which were mustard plasters, but those the patient pulled off is anger as soon as they began to dr tw. The remainder of the diary, including four days, 28th, 29th, and 110th of November, and lot of December, contains only the melancholy narrative of the progress of the disorder and of the remedies employed, termina:ing in his Majesty's death at 50 witness past 10 a.m.= the lit of December. RELIEF OF THE POOR. • IVonders, it is said, never cease. The experience of es-fry day proves the truth of this proverb. But of all the won derful plans which the wit and ingenuity of man have de vised fur ameliorating the condition of the working classes at the present moment, the most wonderful is that which "a most respectable, benevolent, and intelligent gentleman" has brought before the world in the last Friday's paper. This gentleman, after ridiculing, in his letter to the Editor of that paper, emigration as a mans of relieving the tbs• tresses of the weavers. proceeds to suggest a plan for secur ing the advantages of emigration, without any of the sacri fices and enormous expenses attending it. His plan is this:— " bet us try," says he, " an experiment, at least, upon the very worst and most distressed district that can be found. Let net one individual be removed from it, but let us suppose it to be sera. rated by a wall, by a river, or other natural boundary, titan the neigh. bourhood ; and let the people of this district he placed curtly in the same situation as if they had emigrated to some foreign and distant country. Let them be free from all taxes and all,gestraints on their trade. These people could sell their goods to any pan of the world, and they would, of course, receive any thing they wanted free from all restriction or duty. They would get their w h e at for about 3s. per bushel ; their sugar for 3d. per pound, and common tea for about Is. per pound ; and they need only contrive to c onsume as much of these articles as they could, in order to secure , in return , an adequate demand for the produce of their own labour." IVIly. Bishop Berkeley's wall of brass was nothing to this. The gentleman would form quite an Utopia, if he had his own way. One wonders lie never reflected, that the inhabitants of the Isle of Man are almost, if not alto gether, in the etate which be recommends so eloquently. — Liverpool Paper. --- Yesterday Lord Charles Somerset transacted business at the Secretary of States Office for the Colonial lkpatt• meat. 1 1 1 : I
