RECOLLECTIONS IN QUARTERS. I. ADVENTURES IN THE WOODS. It was after General Proctor's unfortunate de feat, and whilst retreating from the frontier of Niagara, I found myself with another subaltern and a small party of men, winding along the shore of Lake Ontario in a large open boat. We came up with some ladies and invalids who had been left behind, and I was introduced by the wife of an officer to an interesting French lady, young and unmarried. I was requested to take her under my care, and escort her to her destination, as our boats afforded the only means by which she might join her friends. As may well be conceived, I was not sorry to undertake the office of guardian, and placing Mademoiselle with all care in our boat, we continued our voyage. When the shades of evening were dosing around us, a lowering sky proclaimed that a storm was at hand, and whilst rounding a bluff point of rock, rising high in precipi tous cliffs above the heaving waters of the lake, severe gusts of wind, accompanied with rain, beat directly in our faces, and conti nuing to increase, obliged us to pull into a tretk for shelter. We found a miserable hut at the head of the creek, and the fisherman who occupied it, after assisting us to haul our boat on shore, to secure it from the eFeets of the storm, informed us, that three miles further in the woods there was a comfort able house where the lady might be accommo dated. Leaving the men in possession of the hut, my brother subaltern and myself set out with Mademoiselle; we easily found the way to the farm-house, as it was not quite dark when we arrived, and found it occupied by a young female, left in charge of it by the owners. A romfottable fire and good cheer rewarded our toils ; and we sat up till a late hour, loth to leave ; but feeling it our duty to the men, and tlie impropriety of spending the night in a house occupied by two defenceless females, we were compelled to return to our party. At last we tore ourselves from the farm-house, and bearing each a torch of split pine, we proceeded on our way towards the shores of the lake. The wind 1314vc in mournful gusts through the dark woods, 'the path was intricate : unskilled in the manage ment of our torches, they were speedily extin guished ; and stumbling over the fallen trees, we soon lost all traces of the path. I urged my companion, who was greatly bewildered by our disagreeable situation, to quicken his steps ; but we had not advanced far before we found ourselves entangled in the thick brush-wood. What was now to be done we knew not—uncertain where the farm-house lay which we had just quitted, we could not retrace our steps. If we wandered farther we might either perish in a morass, or be 'lost for ever in the boundless forest which surrounded us. The prowling wolf or bear were not forgotten by us ----at last a thought struck me. Finding our selves- under a large tree, we got up into it, and exerted our lungs to the utmost, we roared out conjointly, and at intervals, " We're lost in the woods! We are lost in the w-o-o-d-s 7" After continuing this exercise for some time, a faint halloo answered us, which gradually became stronger, until the barking of the fisherman's dog, and a light glimmer through the trees set our minds at rest. The fisherman soon joined us, and conducted us in safety to his hut. He told us, that happening to go out for wood to re plenish his fire, he had heard our cries, which the wind bore towards him, and judging from whom they proceeded, he lost no time in search of us 11. THE LOST DRAGOON. It is not generally known that underneath the walls of Trinity College, Dublin, there is a range of gloomy vaults in which are entombed many of the illustrious dead of the Irish capital. This cemetery has been for many years shut up ; and about the time when it began to be disused, the melancholy and affecting circumstance happened which I am now going to relate. An officer of the 4th Dragoons who had enjoyed the affec tions of a fair Hibernian maid, and whilst every preparation was making for that consummation most devoutly to be wished for by an attached and youthful pair, chanced to be on guard at the Castle. Lounging about in his uniform, and exhibiting to the admiring eyes of many a love sick damsel his handsome person, set off with all " The pomp and panoply of glorious war," a funeral procession passed him ; and seeing that the remains of some person of consequence were about to be consigned to their parent earth in a private and unostentatious manner, curiosity prompted him to follow in the melancholy train. The procession took the direction of the Col lege, and, passing under the archway, arrived at the entrance to the vaults. Here was seen the last of the gallant soldier. He was missed from his guard : his place at the mess-table (which he used to enliven with his hilarity and good humour) remained empty that evening. The following morning his mistress, in the figurative language of the East, " dropped the anchor of hope in a harbour of anxiety ;" and conjecture was at a stand-still to account for his protracted absence. Months, a year rolled past,. still no tidings of the absentee. At last another funeral wended its way towards the Trinity vaults. The mourners descended into their dark recesses. In passing along one of the sepulchral ga ll er i es , their feet crushed the mouldering bones of a skeleton. Imagine their astonishment, when they observed beside it a steel casque and rusted sabre. On examining the bones, the flesh seemed to have been eaten off them by voracious rats.— The sword-belt and pouch were also nearly de voured : and after a great deal of speculation as to the identity of the unfortunate individual, who evidently had strayed into the vaults on a former occasion, had lost himself in their gloom, had been starved to death, and finally devoured, it was eventually found out to be the young and ill-fated dragoon. 111. AN ENNISKILLENER. An ensign of the gallant Enniskillen regiment (the 27th), who had just been gazetted, was travelling by the mail in Ireland to join his corps. Hearing a passenger on the coach making some comments on the regiment which he did not relish—" You thief of the world," says he, " is it after abusing my own regiment ye are, and me sitting here to hear it. Guard, lend us your pistols, and stop the coach." The accommodat ing guard obeyed orders ; and the combatants had a round at each other by the side of the load. The same officer,,when advanced to the rank of Field-officer, had a servant, " a nate boy from sweet Tipperary." On going into action one fine morning, he ordered Pat to remain in the rear to look after his baggage. In the heat of the action a spent ball struck the Major, ..which stunned him ; on recovering his senses he found Pat in the middle of the square, trying to tuff him into a sack. " Thunder and 'ounds ! what are ye doing here,. ye born rascal—didn't I tell ye to remain with the baggage ?"—" Sure, and I thought ye 'r honour was kilt, and I only wanted to give ye-Christian burial."-- United Ser.Journal. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. (From the Gazette de France of Tuesday.) PARIS, SEPT. 14. Letters from Constantinople, of the 20th, add nothing to the news of the 17th. Tranquillity prevails in the city. It is believed that General Diebitsch has already occupied the Dardanelles, and that he is endeavour ing to make himself master of all the points of com munication, by which the capital is supplied with provisions. Admiral Malcolm's squadron had quitted Ipsara, and was at Vour!a on the 25th. It was firmly believed that the negotiations for peace will have a happy result. We were led into a mistake yesterday by our correspondent respecting the contents of the Aus trian Observer of the sth. The following is the article as we read it this morning : " According to the news from Constantinople of the 17th of August, the Porte, adhering to the prin cipal articles of the treaty of the 6th of July, and having been induced to this step by the united re presentations of the Ambassadors of England, France, Austria, and Prussia, has given orders to the Grand Vizier to send Plenipotentiaries to Ge neral Diebitsch, for the purpose of opening without delay negotiations for peace." This news, therefore, is precisely the same as that we gave a week ago. The Moniteur of this date contains a report to the King, from M. de Lahourdonnaye, in which be says that the retrenchments made in his budget for the )ear 1830 make it necessary to think of some means of effecting a saving, and with this view he proposes to suppress the four inspectors of the book trade at Parr, who receive each a salary of 5,000 francs a-year. This report is followed by an ordi nance of the King, suppressing those inspectors, and transfetring to the commissioners of police their functions. (From the Journal des Debuts.) PARIS, SEPT. 13.—The libellers in the pay of Ministers have contradicted by abuse, but with evident embarrassment, the little description we gave of a scene in the interior of the Cabinet. The description, which is to-day repeated by many of the journals, is unfortunately incomplete ; but the truth of all the circumstances related is evident even by the weakness of the official contradiction. " How do you know it ?" we are asked," None of the six Ministers would have told it you." Poor Quotidi cane, it does not even know the number of its masters. God be praised, we have (even Ministers, and disappointment, anger, and the indiscretion of offended self-love multiply babbling echoes around them. A writer of the last age said well of love affairs—" It is possible that persons may not wish to believe in the thing ; but it is impossible that they should not know it." It is the same with Ministerial divisions: when they exist, they become known : the same causes which divide them pro duce the infidelity which publishes. However, this division is honourable to common sense. It proves that notwithstanding the seduction of a :alse position, an honest man possessing sense, can perceive the abyss to which it is being led, and draw back. " No," cry the valets, " the Ministry is united,—very united." B ut h ave we not at all times had our ears filled with this language, and usually with more vehemence when the schism was most evident ? On the evening of the day when the Duke of Doudeauville nobly retired from a fatal Minis try which was unworthy of his support, was not the cry that the ministry was united,—very united? Some months after, was not .the concord proclaimed every morning, whilst Count de Chabrol arranged every thing for the interment of his colleagues, made the necessary arrangements, wrote letters, and prepared to go into mourning previously to seating himself at the banquet of their successors. Yes, you are divided; for it is impossible to find six other men so obstinate, so violent, and so hostile to the laws as you are. Yes, you are divided ! for, to be just, you have not all gone over to the enemy on the field of battle. You are divided by the na tural antipathies of violence and timidity of barbarous Machiavelism, and rash and imprudent candour. It is said, " The secret is one which cannot be known." Are other proofs and other circumstances wanting ? Behold them Cause them to be con tradicted. Did not one of you, on leaving the Council, say, in a tone- of disappointment, " It is impossible ! This man is even more unsociable than I thought him ?" Did not the person thus designated exclaim at the same meeting, " Away with your Jesuits; I prefer gens d'arrnes rather th an Jesuits to restrain the Liberals ?" Mark these words well. Behold the philosophy and grand po licy of the Minister. Here is a man who supposes himself to be cleverer than his pious colleague, and speaks of him as weak minded. But France, if it does not like religious hypo crisy, likes still less, if it be possible, a Lystem of rude and brutal force. Do not imagine that it will suffice to humour the repugnance of the country to the Jesuits, and that it will suffer every thing pa tiently on that account. That is a strange illusion. Since the spirit of the charter has penetrated into all souls, what is most hateful and most dreaded is ar bitrary proceedings--is the spirit of re-action and violence—is absolute power—is the Labourdonnaye Government. The Jesuits themselves are not sus pected in France for their name only, or their faith, but because they show themselves to be the active auxiliaries of absolute domination. Let this system cease to menace us,—let it become impossible, by the strengthening of institutions and the selection of men,—let public liberty no longer be attacked, and it will give us little uneasiness to see the Jesuits in France. Whilst insisting on the division of the Ministry because it is true, we draw no immediate conse quence from it. We know how resigned men usually are to remain in power, even thwarted and oppressed. We know the difficulty of get ting quit of a bad engagement, and of daring all that would be necessary. Besides, we know,, above all, the natural tendency of violence-in certain situs tiouf. Often the more it is in the wroncthe more - FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Messager des ChamLres, Sept. 14.) (sECol<*b 2DITIox.) PARIS, SEPT. 14. FRONTIERS OF SERVIA, A UG. 30.—Letters written from Sophia, by persons worthy of credit, inform us that the Russian army has left Adrianople ; that one column has taken the road to Fery, near the Gulf of Enos, but that the main body of the army marches towards Constantinople. It is supposed that the troops sent on the road to Fery are destined to form a junction with the Russian squadron stationed off the Dardanelles. This manoeuvre greatly alarms the inhabitants of Sophia. It is certain that the appear ance of the Russian troops on the coasts of the Ar chipelago greatly endangers the castles of the Dar danelles, and that a fermentation may manifest itself in the capital, when the news of this twofold threat. ening approach of the enemy shall be known there. But if the people revolt, tire life of the Sultan, on which the fate of the empire depends, will undoubtedly be in the greatest danger. The ra pidity of the operations of General Diebitsch evi dently proves that he distrusts the good faith of the Turkish Government, and that he intends to compel it to make peace as soon as possible; for after all the attempts at negotiation on the part of the Turks, and the fatigue which his army has undergone, he must himself be desirous to give the troops some repose. The Turks of Belgrade are discouraged since the last news received from the theatre of war, while, on the other hand, the Greeks and the Ser vians can hardly conceal their joy. A merchant at Constantinople bas just written to his factor here to keep till further orders the goods which he had be spoke. It is through the same channel that we learn that the Prussian General Muffling had pre pared to quit the capital, after having delivered a note to the Turkish Government. M. Von Zuylen, the Ambassador of the Netherlands, is said to have already left the capital. THE COLOSSEUM—REGENT'S PARK.

ANOTHER RUSSIAN LEVY. If we could ever have entertained any doubts as to the real intentions of Russia with respect to her views on Turkey, we think that the Em peror's Manifesto for another levy of three men out of every 500 would settle the point. It will be recollected that this is the third levy since the beginning of the war—a war too which the Em peror himself assures us has been everywhere crowned with the most brilliant success by the blessing of the Almighty ! Really this religious cant—affected moderation—and manifesto for an additional levy of troops ill assort together. But mark the Imperial reason for this new levy-- « the obstinacy with which the enemy rejects all the proposals for peace made to him at the com mencement of the hostilities and several times since." Name one instance, thou Prince o moderation ! He cannot : but for this reason the Emperor says that he is not able to see wizen the war will end ! This is pretty signifi cant truly of what NICHOLAS means to do, for if he in whose hand the fortune of war is placed cannot foresee, now that he is actually in pos, session of all that he set out for, when the con. test will terminate, who can ? Is not the des• tiny of the Ottoman empire at this moment de. pendent on his mercy ?—and if he cannot tel when he will stop in his career of conquest, veil: the Duke of WELLINGTON inform him ? For our own part we think in all humility that his Grace's belief has been stretched already rather beyond the ordinary bounds of endurance. But the Emperor still professes, while the Turks (?' believe and tremble. In the meantime General DIEBITSCH pur sues his triumphant career. The garrison of Adrianople, consisting of 10,000 regular troops, laid down their arms on the approach of the Russians, though all the ways were open for their retreat, and left to the conquerors 54 can non, 20 standards, 5 horse tails, their camp, leir arms and ammunition, and the men ob tained permission to go to their own homes to employ themselves in agriculture ! So says the account—and a most inglorious one it is for the honour of the Turks. But with respect to the new levy, we appre hend there must be some mistake —for the ma nifesto says three men out of every 500 souk of the whole Empire. Now if we take the popula• tion of Russia at only 40,000,000, the new levy would amount to 240,000 men, a force which cannot surely be wanted to supply the casualties occasioned by the war, especially if we are to believe the Russian bulletins, which; seldom re presented the loss in the most severe battle at 6 or 8000 men, and there were not many of these. But let the Emperor NICHOLAS preach mo- service. But it was to be expected that the great success of General DIEBITSCH, so ably seconded by that of PASKEWITSCII, would draw out the secret of Russian ambition—and now behold the mask of hypocrisy cast aside I We look with some curiosity for the next proclama tion of the Emperor after his arms shall have taken Constantinople. Before then it will not be good policy to declare himself. But we must trust to his moderation—and that, judging by his recent professions, can only be excelled by his magnanimity : BERLIN, SEPT. 10. In addition to the accounts of the occupation of Adrianople by the Russian army, which are received from Vienna, we have through another channel the following additional particulars relative to that im portant event : " A despatch from General Count Diebitsch, dated Eski Serai, at Adrianople, 21st ult., brings the news of the entrance of the victorious Russian troops into that city, at nine in the morning of the day be fore. The garrison of Adrianople, consisting of 10,000 regular troops, laid down their arms on the approach of the Russians, though all the way was open for their retreat, and left to the conquerors 54 cannon, 20 standards, five horsetails, their camp, and their arms and ammunition, and the men ob tained permission to go to their own homes, to em ploy themselves in agriculture.- The numerous po pulation of the city, Mahometans as well as Chris tians, came with entire confidence to meet the Rus sian army." ST. PETERSBURGII, SEPT. 2. The following Imperial Manifesto has been pu fished here : " The war which we are carrying on against the Ottoman Porte, to rescue the repeatedly-vio lated rights of our empire, is, by the bless ing of the Almighty, every where crowned with the most brilliant success, but in con sequence of the obstinacy with which the enemy re jects all the proposals for peace made to him at the commencement of hostilities, and several times since, we are not able to see when it will end. Consider ing it, therefore, to be absolutely necessary to make good the losses sustained by our army in the field, as well as the ordinary diminution in the other troops of the empire, we hereby ordain 1. There shall be a levy of three recruits from every 500 souls throughout the whole empire, with the eteeption of Georgia and Bessarabia. " 2. The supply of half the contingent of recruits for the 92d levy, in the governments of Cherson, Ekaterinoslaw, Pulawa, Kiew, Podolia, and the Ukraine shall be deferred to future levies, for the reasons declared in our Ukase of the 2d September, 1828, and on account of the supply of drivers for the train for the army in the field, during the pre sent year. " Given in the island of Jelaguin, August 10, (22) in the year 1829, and fourth of our reign. (Signed) " NICHOLAS." To the manifesto are appended the usual regula tions for the manner in which the levy is to be effected. It is to be begun on 13th November this year, and must be wholly completed in two months. The Senate is to take measures that all recruits due from former levies shall be furnished. The recruits are not to be under 18 or above 35 years, and must not be under two arohuns three wersehoks in height. 1 ODESSA, AUG. 26. The Emperor has addressed a rescript to Count Woronzow, Governor of New Russia, to the effect that Count Diehitsch being so far from the frontiers of the empire, that any measures ordered by him to prevent the propagation of the plague cannot be executed in due time, or with sufficient vigour, his Majesty has been pleased to place all the quarantine establishments upon the Dniester, Pruth, and Da nube, tinder the immediate orders of Count Woronzow, with unlimited authority to act according to the existing regulations, with out waiting for instructions respecting his mea sures, on which he is to make his report to the Emperor, and to the Minister of the Interior. After some further directions it is ordered " All persons who transgress against the quarantine regu lations shall not be tried by the criminal courts, but according to the penal code of the great army, partly on account of the enormity of the crime, partly to serve as an example." In consequence Of this order two persons have actually been tried and shot, one was an inhabitant of the village of Kujalniki who concealed the death of a gill who died in his house, the other a Polish jew, who had recently left the town and got through the sanitary cordon. The Privy Councillor, Count P3hlen, sailed on the 23d for Bourgas. The Adjutant General, Count Orloff, who arrived here the day before yes terday from St. Petersburg!), also sailed yesterday for Bourgas. Eighty vessels, hired by the Crown, are now lying in the harbour of Bourgas, whither they have conveyed provisions for the army, from various Russian ports. WARSAW, SEPT. 7. Her Imperial Highness the Grand Duchess Helen of Russia arrived here the day before yesterday, and set out to-day for Tulczyn. The Allgemeine Zeitung of the 10th and 11th inst. repeats the rumour that General PASKE WITSCH had advanced against Trebisond. The accounts from Odessa of the 27th Aug. state that numerous ships, laden with provisions and forage, daily sail for Varna and other places along the coast, for the Russian army. It is hinted, that even should peace be brought about, strong garrisons will be left at all the captured places— in other words, that the Russians mean to keep possession of all the country they conquer. Accounts from Vienna confirm the appoint ment of the Duke DE LAVAL MONTMORENCY as Ambassador to the Court of London. He is to be succeeded at Vienna by Count La TER RONNAYs. A repo r t preva il e d t h at i t was i n contemplation by the Austrian Government to reduce the interest of Stock from five to four deration as long as he pleases—and it has hi therto answered his purpose well,—the cloven foot now appears as he takes firmer hold of the promised land, for which Russian ambition has been panting for the last century. The new levy is to be composed of young men from 18 to 35 years of age—another proof that the Em peror means to take a long lease of their services, for in his former levies the age was extended to 60—an age too advanced for hard or distant FRONTIERS OF MOLDAVIA, AUG. 29. Count Von Pahleo r late Governor of Odessa, is appointed by his Court to negociate with the Porte. After the conclusion of peace, Count Pahlen is to remain as Russian Ambassadoi at Constantinople, and as he is thoroughly acquainted with the com merce of Southern Russia, the choice of him for that post is considered as very judicious. VIENNA, Sgrr. 5. —Metalliques, 1001; Bank Shares, 11731. Brussels Papers of the 16th September have been received this morning, but their contents possess no interest : BRUSSELS, SEPT. 15. A British Cabinet messenger passed through yes terday, on his way from Germany to London, with despatches. His Hieness the Hargrave William of Baden arrived here yesterday from Ostrude, on his return to Baden. The French Papers of Monday have been re ceived, and those of Tuesday by express. The theme of their indignation is still the Ministry, which ha! rendered itself more odious than ever by its indiscriminate seizure of the Journals at the Post-office. It is stated that General DIEBITSCII, on leaving Adrianople, had ordered a column of his army to proceed by the road towards Fery near the Gulph of Enos, " but that the main body of the army marches towards Con stantinople. It is supposed that the troops sent on the road to )Fry are destined to form a junc tion with the Russian squadron stationed off the Dardanelles. This manoeuvre greatly alarms the Turks. It is certain that the appearance of the Russian troops on the coasts of the Archipelago greatly endangers the castles of the Dardanelles, and that a fermentation may manifest itself in the capital when the news of this two-fold threatening approach of the enemy should be known there. But if the people revolt, the life of the SULTAN, on which the fate of the Em. pire depends, will undoubtedly be in the greatest danger." We predicted that this would be the case a month ago unless the English fleet seized the Dardanelles. The Gazette de France says,— " It is believed that General DIEBITSCH has already occupied the Dardanelles, and that he is endeavouring to make himself master of all the points of communication by which the capital is supplied with provisions. " Admiral MALCOLM'S squadron had quitted ipsara, and was at Von/.la on the 25th." The following are extracts from the French Papers of Tuesday : From the Messager des Chambres of the 16th of Sep tember, Second Edition.) PARIS, SEPT. 15. A report has been spread here that the office of Minister of the Police was going to be re-established, and that M. De Vitrolles was to fill it. The con sternation was general. It was then affirmed that Messrs. Labourdonnaye and Bourmont were to quit the Cabinet, and to give some credit to the news, it was affirmed that it came from an Englishman, who was well informed. Others affirm, this morning, that the exaggerated party in which M. de Montbel must be reckoned, had gained the advantage. The very serious divisions which have manifested them selves in the Council of Ministers, gave rise to a multitude of conflicting reports.

VIENNA, SEPT. 6. The Austrian Observer announces, that in conse quence of negociations at New York, between Ba ron Von Lederer, the Austrian Consul, and the Government of the United States, that Govern ment has granted to Austrian ships in the har bours of the United States perfect equality with American ships, to which effect a proclamation has been issued by the President of the United States. A courier from Paris has brought to the Duke de Laval Montmorency letters of re call from the Austrian Court, and his appoint ment to the post of Ambassador at London. Count La Ferronnays is to succeed him here. The pacific news in the Austrian Observer of yesterday caused our funds to rise considerably. It is generally re ported here, that the Government intends to reduce the interest of our stock from five to four per cent. and has already entered into negociations for this purpose. But as neither the source of the report, nor the persons negotiated with, nor the rates of the negociation are stated, it will be advisable to wait for the confirmation of the report, which may very likely be the result of a combined stock jobbing speculation.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWRLVR o' Gloat. Sydney Papers from New South Wales have been received to the 3d May, and Demerara to the let August, at the North and South American Coffee-house : (From the Sydney Paper of the 3d May.) " GOVERNMENT ORDER. " Colonial Secretary Office, May 1, 1829. " His Excellency the Governor is pleased to di' rect the publication of the following report trolls Captain Stuart of the 39th Regiment, dated Welling' ton Valley, the 16th instant:—lt appears that sub' sequent to Captain Stuart's former report, dated 4th March last, the expedition had been employed io tracing the course of the river Castlereagh, which was found to join the river discovered on the 2d February, about 100 miles to the northwari of Mount Harris, and in ascertaining the nature of the country in that quarter; the expedition having thus accomplished the object for which it was em' ployed, by ascertaining the termination of the rivers Macquarrie and Castlereagh, and the .nature add character of the surrounding country, and having also discovered a river of some magnitude, which it. is probable, when its course shall have been more fully determined, will be found to be of importance to the colony ; the Governor, though he regrets that the country which has been explored does not hold out prospect of the advantageous extension of the colony in that direction, considers it satisfactory that the eliar ratter of the country has been ascertained, by which means a question, which has excited so much inte rest, has been set at rest. His Excellency the Go' vernor having laid before the Executive Council Captain Stuart's several reports, has much satisfae' tion in thus publicly expressing the sense which his Excellency entertains of the judicious manner in which he appears to have conducted the expedition, , and the zeal and pers e verance which, under dream. stances of no ordinary difficulty, he effected in the most satisfactory manner the object of his instruction. " ALEXANDER lIPLEAY." There is no truth in the statement of the Sydney Paper, that the warrant appointing the new Legit' lative Council has arrived. We perceive from the Colonial Papers that Mt Priest, the spirited Editor of the Antigua Free Press, was tried for a libel on the Chief Justice of that island, and fined the sum of 2501. currency. We have received Burbadoes Papers to the 20th July, but their contents are of a local nature; the Bishop of Barbadoes had arrived at that island on the 22d. Consols opened this morning at the price they left off yesterday, 89 to i f for the Account, 881 to for Money. Owing to the non-arrival of the French mail this morning, we are deprived of fur ther accounts from the theatre of war, which is e% pected to be of a very interesting description, as ►t is confidently stated that the Grand Vizier has •e" complished his negociation for peace with Code Diebitsch.
