FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, FEB. 12.—Since the re turn of a courier from Constantinople to Belgrade, a great degree of agitation has prevailed. It was ap prehended that some unfortunate event had taken place : the most unfavourable reports began to be spread. The merchants, however, have only re ceived news of some advantages obtained by the Russians in Wallachia; and there has long been every reason to suppose that the Russians would do their utmost to drive the Turks from the left bank of the Danube before the opening of the campaign. Among the numerous conjectures, one is that the Pacha of Belgrade may probably soon leave that city to occupy another post. In the midst of all these reports letters of the 29th of January were re ceived from Constantinople, but they brought no news of any importance. It was said that M. Jau bert would perhaps soon leave, without obtaining any of the concessions which the Minister of the Netherlands had expected. Fresh couriers were im mediately despatehed to France and England. The Porte retains a firm attitude, and does not abate in any respect of its obstinacy. Aucsnuttott,Mitacn I.—The mail from Bucharest of I lth February has brought no news from the banks of the Danube, where no military operation has taken place since the capitulation of Tournoul. Private letters from Constantinople, received at Vienna by express, speak of the inflexible resolution of the Sultan not to be dictated to, but to exert every effort in maet the dangers which threaten him. Nagib Effendi, Charge d'Affaires of the Pacha of Egypt, is gone to Alexandria with an order from the Sultan to the Viceroy of Egypt, to equip as soon as possible 40,000 men, and send them to join the Imperial army. Similar orders have been sent to Syria, Bagdad, and to all the Pachas. Three thousand sailors have arrived from Egypt at Constantinople to reinforce the crews of the fleet, in the fitting out of which workmen are employed day and night, as it is to be ready to put to sea in the beginning of April., At Vienna, xselsewhere, the stock-jobbers do every thing to make the funds decline, but no attention should be paid to the reports which they circulate almost periodically, to make it believed that nothing can bring about peace, which all the Powers of Europe are endeavoisring in concert to re-establish.

The regiments of regular Cossacks, from the Don and the Black Sea, which are to reinforce the army in the field, are said to have already commenced their march to the Danube. It is thought, on the other hand, that the Cossacks of the Ural will be ordered to join the army of the Caucasus in the next cam paign. With respect to the Cossacks of the Ukraine it is probable that only small detachments will be employed, be cause they chiefly consist of irregular cavalry whose ser vices, considering the peculiar nature of the present war, could not be very important. . The French Papers contain little news of moment. The Messager dcs Chambres of Friday states, on the authority of private letters from Constantinople, that the SULTAN has dispatched an order to the Viceroy of EGYPT for a reinforcement of 40,000 men, which are to be sent off to join the Imperial army. Similar orders, adds the same authority, have been dispatched to Syria, Bagdad, and to all the other Pachas. On Tuesday last a highly respectable Deputation, accompanied by Mr. BRUNEL, the engineer, whose abilities and perseverance in the magnificent work now under his hands cannot be too highly appre ciated, had an interview with the Duke of WEL LINGTON on the subject of the Thames Tunnel. The interview, if not altogether successful, was yet far from unsatisfactory, inasmuch as his Grace, after minutely enquiring into the exact sums requisite to complete the undertaking, requested that an estimate of its expenses and probable profits might as soon as possible be transmitted to him. We hope that he will still further be induced to ap ply for a loan to Government, and thereby connect his unequalled reputation with the completion of a work every way worthy of him. We hope that the warrior, the statesman, and the patriot, who has already achieved the most tran scendent military, civil, and political victories that the annals of the modern world can produce, will allow his name to be handed down to posterity in a new department of patriotism, as the promoter and the patron of an undertaking not less creditable to the enterprise of England, than her military ways to ancient Rome, or the roads over the Simplon to NAPOLEON. Indeed, we can conceive nothing more worthy of Great Britain, or one more deserving of her consi deration during a period of Universal Peace, than the Thames Tunnel. It is a fitting monument of her grandeur in conception, and her perseverance in execution. It stands boldly out alone in the annals of science, like a broad rock on the ocean. What a thousand pities then, that for the mere consideration of a sum which, calculated at BRUSSELS AM) GERMAN PAPERS.

Count Langeron, on his arrival, had a conference with the Governor, Achmed Selim Aga, in consequence of which the latter, see ing that - he had no hopes of being relieved, con sented to capitulate.—Austrian Observer, Feb. 24. WARSAW, FEB. 1 6.—Tbe ratification of the Polish Loan, lately contracted for at Berlin, has been re ceived from St. Petersburgh. The letters say that two agents of the house of Rothschild have arrived at Petersburgh. In the suite of the Grand Duke Michael are Major-Gen. Bibikow and Col. Annen kow. Col. Von Schaknhorst, the Grand Duke's Aide-de-camp, is gone before his Imperial Highness to Tulczyn, where the Prince intends to put himself at the head of the Guards, the chief command of which, we hear, he will have in the next campaign.

EbrL ~_„.„_____,,,-_e_s sd, „, *un4 LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, MARCH 9, 1829. The Duke of NORTHUMBERLAND, as will be seen by a reference to our columns of to-day, arrived on Friday last in Dublin. He was received with much cordiality by the people, the majority of whom were dazzled by the unusual splendor of his proces sion. As his Grace is universally reported to be a man moderate in politics, and as he pos sesses the additional recommendation of un bounded wealth and great judgment in the dis posal of it, we have every hope that his Vice royalty will be characterized by munificence and dis cretion, and become speedily popular throughout Ireland. Fortunately he enters upon office at a crisis when temper and discrimination are more needed than energy or promptitude of action. He arrives in Dublin at a period when the two great parties of Catholic and Brunswicker, worn out, we should ope, with faction, are not unwilling to lend an ear to mutual reconciliation. To promote this desirable object ; to take advantage of every turn in circum stances that may further it; to repress whatever is ungracious in the spirit of either party, and to en courage, draw forth, and quicken into activity, every rising symptom of good will and tolerance—this, we should presume, will be his Grace's present and future policy. He has not the same difficult game to play that rendered Lord WELLESLEY so unpopular, and occasioned Lord ANGLESEA'S recall. He has no balance to adjust with nicety and adroitness; no Catholic despondency to raise, no Protestant pride to sink to a level of propriety ; his path is straight before him ; at its outset, perhaps, it may be rugged and tangled with briars, but every day's progress will infallibly smooth its difficulties, and render it more commodious and accessible. A conciliatory and munificent disposition are, we conceive, under existing circumstances, the best passports to Irish popularity, and secure in the possession of these, the Duke cannot fail to succeed. German Papers have been received, the only point worth noticing in them is the report dated from the Frontiers of Servia, that the SULTAN is making the most extensive preparations for continuing the cam paign with Russia FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, FEB. 17. The moss recent letters from Constantinople of Jan. 29, say that the most extensive prep irations continue to be made for the ensuing campaign, and the'Suttan gable in forwarding them. M. Jaubert has received no answer to his proposals besides that which the Reis Effendi dictated to M. V. Testa, the Dragoman of the legation of the Netherlands, and which certainly expressed the wish of the Porte to renew the friendiy relations with England and France. But it seems that the Ambassador of the Nether lands expected greater concessions. However, couriers were sent to London and Paris with this answer. The surprise of a Russian post at Kouslidjik is represented by the Turks as an important affair, but in Pera little im. portance is attached to it. HANOVER, FEB. 22. It is said that our Government has already had its me morial against the Duke of Brunswick presented to the Diet, and the affair will probably be soon discussed at Frankfort. We are very anxious about the issue of this business; but hopes are still entertained that the parties interested will not suler things to come to extremities, but will be induced, by the intervention of friendly powers, to come to an amicable arrangement. _ _ _ vV VIENNA, FEB 25.—Metalliques, 9'7 1-16; Bank Shares, 1,0911. (Tn the evening, 1 ,09 1. ) FRONTIERS OF POLAND, FEB. 18. A report has been spread here, for some time, that an august personage (the Grand Duke Constantine) who en ior, in a very high degree, the attachment of the Poles, and particularly of the army, intended to retire from his high Post to enjoy the tranquillity ef private life, and Switzerland was spoken of as his intended abode. It is now believed that we may hope that this intention has The arrivals this morning are few, and of no importance, only one arrival of ship letters. The following articles are by the French mail of this morning : ROYAL DECREE.-MADRID, FEB. 24. The port of Cadiz shall be free ; all embarkations of friendly nations to Spain will be permitted to enter, and to go out, and to correspond, with all kind of merchandize, without paying any duty, but only the expences of qua rantine, anchorage, and other expences relating to a free port.—(The above decree consists of eight articles.) An expedition against Algiers may now be looked on as almost decided, although the time is not fixed. France demands of the Dey the expences of the blockade, and the Dey demands of France the differences due to him on the rents relative to the seven millions. A report prevailed at Navarin of the death of Ibrahim Pacha in a quarrel with his father-in-law, relative to the evacuation of the Morea. Ibrahim drew his sword, when he was instantly shot by his father-in-law. CONSTANTINOPLE, FEB. 29.—There has arrived here within these few days several ships from Egypt laden with grain, and one with saltpetre, without meeting with any Russian or Greek ships, by which it is inferred, that the blockade is not strict, or that violent winds have driven the blockading squadron to a distance. The Pacha of the Dardanelles has received orders to offer to the Russian Ad miral of the blockading squadron fresh provisions and ve getables for the use of the table of the squadron. Bread continues at the same price. TRIESTE, FEB. 9.—Letters from Scutari announce that the Paella of that place has been declared a rebel by the Sultan. TILE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The arrivals of all descriptions of Grain last week were moderate, and of Flour inconsiderable. This morning we have the smallest supply of Corn fresh up that has come in for many weeks past. The certainty of a great increase in the duty on Foreign Wheat shortly occasions more de mand for Wheat, and prime qualities have obtained rather more money than this day se'nnight, with more business also doing in secondary sorts at the last quoted prices. Barley fit for malting may be stated Is. per quarter dearer; but this improvement does not extend to any other qua lity. Beans still remain plentiful, and the trade remains dull at no alteration in value. Pease of both kinds are unaltered. There is rather more life in the Oat trade than has been recently experienced, and the best parcels obtain a trifling advance in value. The Flour trade continues dull at no alteration in prices.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT. The VICE CHANCELLOR this morning disposed of several Bankrupt petitions, none of which possessed any point of public interest. In the one, Bernasconi v. Chambers, Mr. &WIDEN being engaged in the House of Lords, it was put off till the next day of petitions. RESTORATION OF YORK CATHEDRAL On Thursday there was a meeting in the Concert room at York, to take the opinion of the nobility and gentry of the county upon the best means of effecting the restoration of York Cathedral. The Earl of Harewood, who was called to the Chair, ex pressed a hope that the county of York alone would supply funds sufficient for the restoration of the Minster. The Rev. W. V. Vernon read a letter from the Earl of Carlisle, and from the Members for the county and city of York, regretting their in ability to attend the meeting. The Reverend Gen tleman then said, the present was the very earliest opportunity at which a report of the expense of re storing the Minster could be produced. He there fore would at once lay that interesting document before the meeting : and he would add, that Mr. Smirke was himself present, to explain any thing, should explanation be required. The Rev. Gentle man then read Mr. Smirke's estimate, the substance of which was as follows :—He found that the side aisles of the choir were not injured ; that no thing was left of the beautiful wooden screen-work of the choir ; that the stone screen at the altar was so injured that it must be taken down to be restored; that the stone clustered pillars were destroyed; that the piers were not materially weakened, and would be able to sustain the fabric without danger ; (hear)—that the great eastern window, and the side window, had sustained very little damage (Hear), and would easily be repaired. As to the measure of the re-construction of the choir, it appeared to him the most desirable that it should be done with the same materials, and after the same design as its original and ancient ornamental work.—(Hear.) — He should recommend that a new roof be made of oak or teak, covered with lead ; and that the inte rior of the roof be vaulted as before; that the pre bendal stalls, &c., should be restored as much as possible, after their former drawing!, many of which are in possession of the church. As to the expense, it was impossible to state the exact sum which would be required. In his opinion, the works, as he had recommended, would not cost less than 60,000/. exclusive of the expense of an organ and music books. He had omitted nothing else • and if the works were intrusted to him, they would not ex ceed that sum.—(Hear.) —The roof might be com pleted before the expiration of the present year, and the resto r a t i on o f the whole building before the ex piration of 183 l.—(Applause.)—The Rev. Gentle man having read the above statement, said, that the expence of an organ, books, and other furniture, would amount to about 5,000/. The Dean and Chapter concurred in Mr. Smirke's recommendation, and were determined not to depart from the beau tiful models of the original state of the choir, which for grandeur of effect and durability could not be equalled. - The - Rev. W. H. Dlxos, chaplain to tho Arch bishop, said that as Chairman to the Central Com mittee, he had received several letter 3, which he begged to read. The Rev.

LARGO.—On Wednesday afternoon the quay at Largo presented rather an interesting spectacle. About forty seamen engaged for the whale fishing, were assem bled with their kindred and acquaintances, waiting for the victory steam-boat to convey them to Leith. When the vessel was about to sail, the hearty and affectionate shakes of the hand, the earnest and expressive looks which said to w parents, and swee th ear t s , " F are th e e well, and e ever, still f or ever f are t h ee well," rerendered br scene very affecti ng .

Since this day week the transactions in the Grain trade have been quite trifling. We had a slender attendance of millers and dealers at market to-day—the finest samples of English Wheat commanded last Saturday's rates ; Irish and inferior samples are a shade lower; grinding Barley dull sale, and Oats are languid at the quotations ; Boiling Pease are 2s. per quarter cheaper, and old Beans may be noted full Is. under the rates of Saturday last. The trade in Malt is quite insignificant, therefore, to force sales, low prices must be submitted to ; Flour and Oatmeal are each heavy sale at last named prices. custonvry nustiel- Whcat (701 b.) s. d. to s. d.

Fitz' I clarence, arrived at Plymouth yest er d a y se ' nn i g ht, from cruising Terceira. From the treatment encountered from the inhabitants of this island in one or two instance* by the officers and seamen of this nation, may be fairly inferred the feeling of animosity they have engendered towards us, arising from our interference in obstructing the landing there of the Portuguese emigrants. Capt. Fitz clarence had escaped narrowly with his life in a scuffle ori• ginating in the boat's crew of the Pallas landing for water, to prevent their obtaining which a guard was called out, which attacked the crew. Captain Fitzclarence was slightly wounded in the back, breast, and head, and, for protec tion, was compelled to push off to the Shannon, 46, Capt. Clement, his own frigate lying farther out. A midship man of the Shannon had also been roughly treated, who had landed with some official communications to our con sul. The Shannon had been nearly wrecked while at an chor there, from a sudden shift of wind, which drove her close under the cliffs. By slipping her chain cable and anchor, she fortunately was enabled to sta n d ou t o f dan ger, and proceed to the West Indies. She left behind herr however, several officers (passengers) who were on shore. The Druid, 46, Captain Sandom, was to leave Jamaica, for the Spanish Main on the 16th of January, and having then taken on board what specie and cochineal might be ready to be embarked, she would proceed to the Havannah and Nassau on her return to England. She may be ev pected in the early part of May. Captain Branch, of bin ; Majesty's ship Mersey, had invalided ; the appointmenti, consequent upon which were Captain Courtenay, :of the . Magnificent, to the Mersey; Commander Crawford, of the Grasshopper, to the Magnificent; and Commander Deare, who proceeded to that station on paying off the Ferret at, this:port, to the Grasshopper. A Court Martial had been held at Port Royal, on the officers and crew of the Kanga roo, for the loss of that surveying vessel, on the Hog Sties ; the result of which was the dismissal from the ser- • vice of Mr. Anthony de Mayne, the master. There were no less than 38 men-of-war at Malta, oe the 27th of January. There were 15 English, six French and 17 Russian pendants. 'the Asia, Windsor Castle, Spartiate, Revenge, Blonde, Rattlesnake, Cameleon, and two bombs, were to sail in'ttvo days for Naples. The Ocean was to proceed to Smyrna. The palace for merly occupied by Buonaparte was about to be con verted into an hospital, at the estimated cost of 20,000/. The Russian line of battle-ship Grand Michael had joined her consorts, in 58 days from the British Channel ; but in such a miserable plight, that it was presumed she must be sent back to the Baltic. The Azar, 84, with Count Heyden on board, was nearly lost off Ceregotto, on the 3d of January, and arrived at Malls nearly dismantled. The French troops in the More.a were again sick, and it was reported at 2Egina that strong sus picious were intertained of the fidelity of Capo distria to the cause he had apparently so warmly espoused. The Onyx, 10, sailed yesterday for Plymouth. To day arrived the Arrow cutter from a .cruise, and sailed again. Poomcrrrows.—Commanders R." H. Manners, of the Britomart, George Haye, of the Raleigh, and Wi Uiam. Fletcher, to the rank of Captain; Lieutenant E. .r• Johnson, to the rank of Commander, an d t o co m m and the Britomart, of 10 guns: Mr. Win. Edmonstone, Un daunted, and Mr. Allen, Warspite, to the rank of Lieu tenant. APPOINTMENTS.-Captain P. Fisher, to the Southamp ton ; Lieutenant Joseph Pearce, Lieutenant John Hall (b), S. N. Inglis, G. H. P. White, Rev. C. Handy, Mr. W. White (2) Master, of the Gloucester, to the Melville ; Mr. John Charles Folds, Supernumerary Assistant• Surgeon to the Royal Naval Hospital at Plymouth ; Lieutenant Moore, of the Rinaldo packet brig, has resigned the command of that vessel at Falmouth. The Tartar revenue cutter captured the sloop Eclipse, or . Yarmouth, in the Isle of Wight, off the Needles, on Sun day last, with 150 tubs of smuggled spirits on board, and a crew of four men and a boy. The Atlas, Company's ship, for Bombay and China, hav ing repaired her damages, went out of harbour this morn ing, and sailed immediately. The Waterloo has arrived here this week, to take on board male convict! from the hulks at this port. One hun-. dred and eighty will be embarked on Monday. On Friday night last the house of Messrs Kesteven, of York-street, Covent-garden, who are exten sively engaged in the cloth and silk business, was entered by means of the adjoining house, which is empty, and pro perty to a considerable amount carried off. It a ppeared that the thieves obtained admission to the adjoining pre mises through the street-door by means of a false key, and proceeding to the kitchen broke a hole through the wall, which is of considerable thickness, and thus effected an entrance to the kitchen of Messrs. Kesteven. They then proceeded up stairs to the counting-house, and forced open an iron chest, in which the bills and cash belonging to the firm are usually deposited. Fortunately, however, not more than about 50/. in bank. notes and sovereigns were deposited in the chest at the time. With this sum the thieves made free, and afterwards went up stairs, where they packed up some articles of plate of no great value. They then rummaged the ware-rooms, and selected about 2001. worth of valuable silks for waistcoating, of the newest and most fashionable patterns, and, thus laden, they bad the hardihood to effect their retreat, not as t hey came, through the adjoining house, but through the prig vete entrance of Messrs. Kesteven's. Information grae given of the robbery at the Public-offiee, Bow-street, at an early hour on Saturday morning, and one of the principal officers of that establishment has taken the affair in hand. STATE OF TRADE.—This week there has been an increased export demand for yarns, and prices have in consequence been fully maintained. Owing to the recent decline in cotton-wool, the spinners are now doing rather better than they were during the winter month* inasmuch as the value of yarn has not fallen by any means so much as the raw material. In some kinds of both mule and water twist, indeed, prices are fully as high when cotton was V. or Id. per lb. more than the prawns rates. In these descriptions, therefore, the difference 111 favour of the spinner is equal to the above amount, and lie is in consequence in so much better a situation than he was. At the same time there is reason to believe that this difference is only a diminution of his loss; for present , prices are, even where most in favour of th e sp i nner , with very trifling exceptions, too low to leave any profit. The fine spinners are in a very depressed state, and, w ith respect to them, there are yet no symptoms of improve" meat ; the demand for fine numbers being in every market exceedingly dull. We have to notice also some increase of business in goods, and in some sorts of power-loom clog?! at rather better prices. Still, however, prime arg IMO depressed. The increased demand is far from general--- many kinds of goods are as depressed as ever; and such is the disinclination of buyers to take any thing for which they have not immediate need, that great sacrifices must be submitted to in order to effect sales of such goods as are not in present demand. The complaints respecting the difficulty and irregularity of payments continue. In this respect no favoum able change whatever has hitherto shewn itself. Since our last there have been some. further failures at Glasgow announced. Wo believe, however, that they have no connexion with this town. There have been also two or three other failures, but not of much consequence. One of a printing house in Staffordshire, we understand, owes something for cloth in this town Ant neighbourhood. It is not, however, very piteivain Manchester Gazette. HORRIBLF CHARGE.--On Saturday a gen' tleman, resident in Dublin, but whose name, through re-, spect for the wounded feelings of a parent, and fur those of a respectable family, we abstain from giving, a pp e ared at College-street Police-office, to tender information against his son, for obtaining, through false pretences, sonic pro perty belonging to the complainant, and which had by him been consigned to the care of a friend for convenience of keeping. While preferring his charge, some language of an;ry recrimination was interchanged . between the parties; when the father reproached the son with bayiils disinterred from' its grave the body "gf . . hiq own brother, and disposed of it to a surgeon for Money, to enable htm to gratify his evil propensities. On hearing this frightful accusation, thus wrung from the . . lips of an agonised parent, a general thrill of horror seemed to pervade all those present, and in which the unfortunate object against whom it was directed also seemed to,parti oipate, denying in the most positive terms that he was guilty of such unnatural conduct. On, however, some persons present expressing a doubt as to the possibi lity of any individual being so dead to the feelings of nature or fraternal affection, as to be capable of such an outrage on humanity, the father turned to them, ;hook his head, and observed with a melancholy expression of countenance, and in a voice almost choked with agita tion, that what he had stated was unfortunately but too true, and that if he were not restrained by a feeling of de licacy towards the surgeon who had purchased the ,b(>4 of his deceased child, and whose name he did not care ;to expose, he could establish the fact beyond all poaibility of doubt. The informations having been sworn, the prisoner was committed to abide his trial for the misdemeanour..--• Waterford Chronicle. 768 Pt' LS -Bran) 3739 1385 'DS OF ,____ 1 4116 0-
